Chapter 12 Reforms

The emperor gave Xu Chen a hundred taels of silver to buy her rice peel recipe, of course, this premise is that Xu Chen told the emperor that in addition to rice peel, there are also cold skin, rolling dough, and spicy noodles, which are all delicious delicacies.

She took the opportunity to propose that she could add more recipes to the university cafeteria, and then the students could study well and contribute to the imperial court in the future.

After the emperor heard this, Long Xin was very happy, and after praising her, he gave her a thousand taels of silver, and asked her to give the canteen a recipe every month for this year.

And he also sent an imperial chef to cook for the students, and the recipe was handed over to this imperial chef, and Xu Chen could guide him to cook.

She felt very happy, because she had met a Ming Emperor, and if she changed to an unwise emperor, she might have to be treated as a monster.

Recently, Xu Chen taught students the Analects, and she had studied this book in depth in modern times, and in her spare time, she was going to read the dossier to compile the book.

On this day, she saw a particularly strange file, that is, this case did not have a result at all, and it seems that this time it was a disappointment given to herself by Shaoqing of Dali Temple.

But she is not afraid, because in addition to the emperor behind her, mainly because she found that as an official in ancient times, being able to judge cases is the most basic skill.

The description in the dossier goes something like this: 30 years ago, there was a great drought in the country, and a spring was found in one place.

But the two families competed and eventually became enemies, and when the national disaster came, these two families had the merit of being a dragon.

These two families are the big families in the current capital, the Xie family and the Wang family, and this is what the emperors of the past dynasties wanted to see.

The dossier describes that the two families were reluctant to get married, so two people left privately, and they were both young masters and young ladies who had no ability to live at all, and in the end they were destitute, and on the way back, they seemed to have disappeared.

After collecting a lot of information and passing the investigation, Xu Chen made a bold guess that maybe these two people were not missing at all, but were hidden by these two families.

It is said that this dossier was requested by the previous prime minister, and it seems that the prime minister and both families are hostile relations, so it is obvious that he wants to rely on this dossier to cause some damage to these two families.

After two months of evidence searching, she went to find Shaoqing of Dali Temple, showed him this evidence, and discussed with him how to end the case.

Later, after the two discussed, they said that they would hand over the evidence to the emperor, of course, the best suggestion was to let the two families each pay 100,000 taels of silver to fill the treasury, maybe it would be enough to make the relationship between the two families a little better.

After this incident, her relationship with Shaoqing of Dali Temple has improved a lot, and she may even become a future confidant because of the case.

After meeting with the saint, the emperor agreed to their suggestion, and he didn't want the minister to do too much, so he agreed.

It turned out that these two people were hidden in the home of the Shu people in Yangzhou in the south, and this man had a flexible brain and was particularly good in business, so he still lived a relatively good life.

After this incident, she felt that she needed to write this article in the legal book, and she could not change her name and surname without permission, and if she wanted to change her name and surname, she needed to report it to the official.

Borrowing the modern ID card and other household registration systems, the emperor listened to it and agreed with it, and rewarded her again, and then Xu Chen's life returned to the way it was.

When she saw Shaoqing Lingyun of Dali Temple for the first time, she felt that he was really the incarnation of a stranger like jade, a little more handsome than Linge, on par with Xie Yu, but unfortunately she had already taken a fancy to Xie Yu, but it was okay to appreciate it, and she felt very comfortable with such an excellent friend.

In this way, she felt that she hadn't seen Xie Yu for a long time, but she had only seen him once last time when she was in the court, and he was really busy after becoming the prime minister!

Xu Chen is actually a little angry, she doesn't like to look for herself, she doesn't go to him, no matter how much she wants to be with him, she won't rush to stick to him, only those who love themselves will be loved by others.

Xie Yu was doing some secret missions for the emperor recently, and as soon as it was over, he couldn't help but run up to find Xu Chen, and then after he learned Xu Chen's thoughts, he decided to take her home to meet her parents.

Xu Chen herself is still a man now, of course she is afraid that Xie Yu will take her back to meet her parents, and then when she is at the door, she refuses to get out of the carriage, Xie Yu considers her lover's thoughts, so she cancels this plan.

Besides, Xu Chen thought to himself that he had only made the Xie family lose 100,000 taels of silver not long ago, and it was too difficult to see the elders.

And Xie Yu explained to herself that the daughter of the Xie family was a concubine, so she didn't have to worry too much, she was already an adult, and her own behavior should be responsible for herself.

But I didn't expect to be seen by others at the door, this person is Liu Xiang's maid, and Liu Xiang is the first lady in the capital.

She wanted to marry Xie Yu, so she sent a maid to keep an eye on Xie Yu to see if there was any chance to get along with him, but she didn't expect to find out that the two of them were intimate.

The next day, she and Ling Yun went to the restaurant for dinner, but unexpectedly, she heard her gossip, saying that the two sons of the capital were pulled underground by Xu Chen.

She didn't understand what it meant at first, but later she realized that someone actually advertised that Xie Yu and Ling Yun were broken sleeves, and they were fighting for the same person, that is, herself.

This made Xu Chen feel a little funny after hearing it, and she asked Ling Yun if there was any good way to solve this phenomenon?

After all, everyone was an official in the capital, and someone dared to spread their public opinion, and later Xie Yu also told himself that the three of them began to think of a way.

Later, I found out that it was Liu Xiang who passed it out, but I didn't expect the Liu family to be so powerful now, and then the next day there was an excerpt on the Liu family in the court.

This matter slowly faded away, and Liu Xiang wore out this public opinion because he thought that Xie Yu's elders would be very worried about his future after hearing this phenomenon, so they would marry him, and the first object of engagement was Liu Xiang.

But what she didn't guess was Xu Chen's female identity.

And Xie Yu really loves her, and he doesn't care if she is a man or a woman, so in this regard, Liu Xiang has already lost.

Xie Yu often took Xu Chen back to his home and ate together, so Xu Chen and Xie Yu's family were very familiar.

Every time, he and she will bring some self-made delicacies and products in their own store to them, these things are particularly effective, after all, they have absorbed the wisdom of future generations, and they are also very popular, and they all regard themselves as family.

Sometimes she is especially glad to wear this dynasty, so that she can truly live her life, have her own career, dreams, and live with her family and lovers.
