Chapter 496: The four brothers and sisters are all promising

Yu Guogong smiled.

"What's so good about her? Not only is he ugly, but he is also rude and rude, and more importantly, he is not polite and honest." Yu Manrou said, "Father, how can a person like her be worthy of such favor as Feng Yuanchen."

Yu Guogong was very relieved to hear his daughter say this, and nodded with a smile.

"Our daughter is really different." He complimented and said, "You don't have to worry, I have already sent the post to King Chen's mansion, I think it won't be long before I get a reply, when King Chen comes to the mansion, you will dance first, and then let King Chen see clearly, you are the most suitable woman for him."

Yu Manrou nodded shyly.

Sheng Zhiyao became famous in a fight, although he was only a six-year-old child, but it was enough to cause a sensation in the capital, especially the hundred poems that shocked the four people, and the literati and writers discussed one after another, and even some people began to ask to see the old marquis Sheng, hoping that the old marquis Sheng could take his granddaughter to meet everyone.

However, the old marquis Sheng closed his door and refused to allow anyone to visit, which also made Sheng Zhiyao's name a target of public criticism.

"Is my father doing this?" Sheng Zhengye's sorrowful persuasion.

"It's not a good thing to expose your talent too early." Old Marquis Sheng drank tea slowly, "It is gratifying to let her show her talent in front of others, but if it attracts jealousy and framing because of this, it is not good for our family."

Sheng Zhengye nodded, and was a little grateful.

"Father, if you think too far, I'm almost confused." He said, "But what now? Zhiyao is already famous, and now there are many celebrities and inkmen at the door who want to see him."

"I'm not afraid." Old Marquis Sheng smiled and said, "Anyway, Zhiyao is not in the mansion now, you have someone to deliver a message to the palace, so that Zhiyao and his brothers will stay in the palace tonight and come back tomorrow."

Sheng Zhengye suddenly breathed a sigh of relief: "It's still my father's foresight."

"There is nothing far-sighted, since it is the emperor who caused the trouble, let him clean it up by himself, and let my precious granddaughter suffer for his selfishness, we can keep this account in our hearts, and the emperor can't afford to pay for it." Old Marquis Sheng snorted and said.

This is true, although the Sheng family is a hereditary marquis, but the old marquis Sheng relies on the merits of the imperial examination, he himself is talented, and he is a close friend of the emperor.

"Father, son doesn't dare to go to the emperor to theorize." Sheng Zhengye simply waved his hand and said, "My son doesn't have that guts."

"What are you afraid of, he won't eat you." Old Marquis Sheng scolded, "Besides, he should also know what the consequences will be once the reputation comes out, you don't have to worry, and those who come to the door don't care, don't they know my Sheng Lixin's temper?"

"Yes, yes, what my father said is that I am afraid that the two shops of Tianxianglou and Dasheng Roast Duck will be busy these days!" Sheng Zhengye sighed, and said with a smile, "It's better than coming to the door."

Old Marquis Sheng laughed and patted his arm.

"Don't worry, Zhiyao knows that she will be happier if she makes money than if she is a genius."

When night fell, the Purple Phoenix Hall was bustling and noisy.

Sheng Zhiyao made a large table of dishes in the imperial kitchen and filled the whole room.

"Zhiyao, are you going to set up a banquet?" The queen sat on the chair and smiled.

"Isn't Grandma Huang happy today, it's rare." Sheng Zhiyao stood at the table with a wine jug and said, "So I invited a guest to dinner to celebrate."

The queen mother smiled and took the cup she had poured full.

"It's good if you're happy, I haven't seen these dishes, it seems that today is a blessing." She said with a smile as she drank the wine from her glass, "Huh? What kind of wine is this? It tastes good."

Sheng Zhiyao smiled.

"It's red wine, grandmother try it." She said, pointing to the bottle of red wine beside her, "This is wine made from grapes."

The queen looked at it, picked up the wine cup and took a sip.

"It tastes good." She nodded in appreciation, "You brewed it?"

"Of course, and we're going to have grapes in the future." Sheng Zhiyao said proudly, "In the future, if you want to eat grapes, or if you want to drink this red wine,

We can all do it ourselves."

"That's good, the grapes sent by the Northern Summer every year are basically in the palace, but in fact, there are not a few bunches, the distance is far away, and fresh grapes are not suitable for storage. The queen mother said, and smiled, "But our family's Yao brewing skills are getting more and more sophisticated."

"That is, if you want to eat grapes in the future, I will pick them for you, there are grapes in the greenhouse of Yuanyao Village, and there are many fruits, it's enough." Sheng Zhiyao said that he was quite confident in his craft.

The queen smiled and nodded.

"You child is filial piety and hard work, Yuan Yao Zhuang feels that there is everything, if this planting technology can be carried forward, our Shangzhou can be regarded as rich and prosperous." She said with a gentle smile.

"Grandma Huang will definitely do it, when my uncle and I study these well, let my uncle take these techniques and find a place for the people to plant, when the time comes, we will still be safe and secure, and the people will have enough food and clothing, self-sufficiency, then it will be called a peaceful place." Sheng Zhiyao said seriously.

The queen mother smiled and nodded, and the two looked at each other with a burst of laughter.

"Your Majesty has arrived!" Suddenly, there was a shout from outside the hall.

With these words, the emperor stepped in.

"I can hear it, my little Yao is really our Shang Zhou's lucky star, no, it brought me the gospel so quickly." He said, looking pleasant.

"Grandpa Huang, it's really time for you to come, try this red wine, eat some food, and ensure that you have an endless aftertaste." Sheng Zhiyao said happily, raising his hand to stuff the chopsticks into the emperor's hand, "I can be regarded as thanking the emperor for his reward."

The emperor looked at her, and his eyebrows were still as loving as ever.

"You." He shook his head and said, "Always so clever."

Sheng Zhiyao stuck out her tongue, sat down with her head down, and instructed Mama Rong to add dishes and chopsticks.

At this time, the Sheng brothers and Feng Yuanchen also came to the Purple Phoenix Hall and sat down to the emperor and queen.

The emperor beckoned them to drink a few cups as well: "All four of you brothers and sisters are promising, and I am very relieved."

"The emperor praises." Sheng Hancheng said with a smile, "Thank you."

"It's also thanks to Grandpa's teaching." Sheng Hangu said modestly.

On the side, Sheng Zhiyao lowered his head slightly, and a slight smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"You four siblings are fine." The emperor said with a smile, "Especially you Hancheng, you can't slack off while staying in the Yuanchen military camp, I heard that you are preparing to take the martial arts exam?"

"Thank you for your concern, I do plan to try." Sheng Hancheng immediately said, "Although I can't solve the emperor's problems like my eldest brother, I also want to protect your majesty's family and defend the country."
