In desperation, Liu Zhi had no choice but to agree, and in September, he would elect a good family to fill the court.

However, because a batch of palace maids has just been released, it is not good to select them on a large scale, so this time the scale will be greatly reduced, only one hundred will be selected, and then the best ones will be selected to stay.

The ministers still didn't follow when they heard it, they shouted noisily and chirped, which made Liu Zhi finally angry and walked away.

These old guys even kicked their noses in the face, thinking that they couldn't restrain him, and sometimes they couldn't reason with them.

It's still cool to be a faint gentleman, he has a convulsion in his brain, and he wants to be a wise gentleman through the ages.

As long as you are trapped in the shackles of fame, you will become a person with a heart to grasp your own weaknesses, and you can't do this at every turn, you can't do that.

It seems that it is time for him to change his image, Liu Zhi sat at the table, thoughtfully playing with the brush in his hand.

Because the mood was ruined, I felt that I couldn't raise the interest to review the folds, and after thinking about it, I had nowhere to go, so I walked to the Hehuan Palace.

Deng Meng was discussing something with several palace people, Liu Zhi was curious for a while, so he made a gesture to silence the people below, and quietly walked over from behind.

"I think the tender lamb is still delicious, so I used the method of His Majesty's last roast venison, it is too fragrant."

This is Deng Wan's voice, it seems that she is also a snack, and she can't help but suck her saliva as she speaks.

"No, on such a hot day, wouldn't it be better to eat what to roast, add some ginseng slices and stew it into a medicinal meal, which is delicious and nourishing?"

Another female official named Wu Yan immediately retorted.

"Cai girl, tell me, how to get it?"

Deng Meng leaned leisurely on the couch and waved his hand with a smile.

"Isn't this easy to do, since everyone has different tastes, how about getting some of each and having a whole sheep feast?"

"Whole sheep feast? That's great. ”

Everyone cheered, and Liu Zhi also smiled and said, "Okay, you discussed delicious food, but you didn't invite me to come, what should I be guilty of?" ”

Seeing Liu Zhi suddenly appear, everyone was embarrassed, hurriedly saluted, and then made an excuse to slip away.

Deng Meng smiled: "Zhenri is boring, if you don't think about some food, you really have nothing to do, don't blame them." ”

"People take food as the sky, and food is the great desire of people, what is wrong, I was just joking."

Liu Zhi heard Deng Meng say that he was bored, and he suddenly felt some pity in his heart, she was lively and cheerful, and she was used to being like a boy since she was a child.

It's going to be hard to be trapped in this little palace now.

However, this girl laughs and groans at all times, never sighs and complains, which shows that she is open-minded.

On a whim, "If you don't change your clothes, I'll take you back to the Nandun Marquis Mansion to play." ”

Deng Meng raised his head in surprise, and a pair of black and white eyes looked at him fixedly.

"Really?"

Then he was a little worried, "If the Queen Mother knows, will she be blamed?" ”

"What are you afraid of, if the Queen Mother blames her, I will bear it."

Liu Zhi disagreed, Empress Dowager Liang is now sick in bed, how can she bother to care about these trivial things.

"Well, then, I'll find a servant's garment to change into, so that I don't slip through."

Deng Meng jumped up with joy and ran away.

Since entering the palace, she has never had a chance to go out, let alone return home. thought that she could only be confined to the deep palace for the rest of her life, but she didn't expect Liu Zhi to be willing to take her home to see.

Not long after, Deng Meng ran out in a gray-blue servant costume, looking clear-eyed.

But her demeanor is more generous, and if she doesn't pay attention to it, she just thinks she's a delicate teenager.

Deng Wan sent her out with envy, and repeatedly asked her to help go to see her parents.

Liu Zhi also changed his clothes, and the group walked out of the palace gate in a low-key manner and went straight to Lu Lane.

The Marquis of Nanton's Mansion is not in the lively aristocratic district, but in a secluded alley, especially by the back door, which is a unique cul-de-sac.

Of course, this is to facilitate Liu Zhi's comings and goings, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.

The scale of the Hou Mansion is not very large, and it was the old mansion of a minister of the imperial court, and the houses in it are some years old.

However, the ancient trees are towering, the flowers and plants are verdant, and there is a unique beauty of elegance and tranquility.

Deng Meng came to the Nandun Marquis Mansion for the first time, and he couldn't help but be very surprised, looking left and right with a smile on his face.

Because he didn't inform him in advance, Deng Yan was not in the house, and went to the villa where he made wine on the mountain.

Only Mrs. Xuan was left in the house, and when she heard that Liu Zhi was coming, she hurriedly greeted her.

"Your Majesty is here, please sit inside."

As soon as he finished speaking, Deng Meng poked his head out from behind Liu Zhi mischievously and called out to his mother.

Mrs. Xuan hugged her in surprise, "Fierce girl, my son ......"

He got up again and thanked Liu Zhi, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace." ”

"You mother and daughter talk about yourself, I'll go to the villa to have a look, and I'll pick her up when I come back."

The family happily sent him out the back door again, Liu Zhi thought about it, there was actually nothing to do to go to the villa.

Then he asked Fan Chao, who was following him, "Do you still have dog meat at home?" ”

Fan Chao touched his nose in embarrassment and said with a sneer.

"The minister has not opened a butcher shop anymore, but if His Majesty wants to eat, he can buy it at any time, and the minister will help you rectify it himself, very quickly."

"Okay, let's go to your house to eat dog meat, I haven't tasted your craft for a few days, and I miss it."

Fan Chao's home is still in that alley, and he didn't move, but just bought all the houses in his neighborhood, and then expanded and renovated it into a large courtyard.

When they passed, he had already sent someone to buy dog meat, and the pot was hot, so Fan Chao immediately rolled up his sleeves and went to the kitchen.

Liu Zhi took a turn in the house, although it was not magnificent, it was spacious and bright, and it was more convenient to live.

It seems that this Fan Chao is still a person who has not forgotten his roots, and after he did not soar, he hurriedly moved to Lu Lane.

In the past, his house was small, and everyone sat in the yard to eat and drink, which was also unique.

Now there is a large and spacious living room, even if dozens of people gather in it, it will not look crowded.

Fan Chao's wife, Lu Ping, came forward to entertain them, although they were dressed in silk and satin, their style was simple and simple, and they looked generous and decent.

Liu Zhi briefly chatted with her, feeling that she was very satisfied with her current life and was a contented woman.

What made him even more emotional was that after Fan Chao developed, he did not dislike the wife of the five big and three rough looks, nor did he take a concubine.

From this point of view, his character is indeed trustworthy, although he is not very capable, he can't be a country in literature, and he can't set the country in martial arts, but he is kind and affectionate.

After a while, the yard was filled with the smell of braised pork, which was mouth-watering.

More than a dozen people sat together, eating meat in large pieces, drinking in large bowls, laughing and laughing, and Liu Zhi regained the feeling of being happy and dripping before.

There are many etiquettes in the palace, and as the emperor, he must set an example for the world, and his words and deeds must conform to the rules.

Only when he arrives here can he temporarily put aside the shackles of his identity and play happily for half a day.

As soon as he was halfway through eating, Shan Chao came over, and said with a smile when he entered the door, "It's a good time to be in a hurry today." ”

When Liu Zhi saw his happy expression, he knew that there must be good news.

"Your Majesty, Dong Taishou has been found."
