When the meal was finished, Liu Haojia's story was also finished. Emperor Wanli drank tea and said, "I can't see that you are quite capable, and you actually pulled Gu Ningbo's Mansion out like this!" ”

Liu Haojia flattered and said: "That's also because of the reign of the Holy Son of Heaven, and only the grass people have the opportunity to show their talents in the Qing Haiyan River this day!" Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't even have a chance to fight for my life! ”

Emperor Wanli could understand this. After all, there are so many nobles and so few official positions, how can there be a chance that it will be the turn of the Liu family father and son to lead the army? Thinking of this, Emperor Wanli said: "You have always called yourself a grass people, but you haven't even passed the level of Meng Bu?" ”

Liu Haojia said with a wry smile: "Originally, I didn't have money to open up the joints, but now that I have money, I am busy practicing literature and martial arts every day, and I don't have time to promote this matter, so I have delayed it until now!" ”

Emperor Wanli nodded thoughtfully and said, "It's worth coming out today, I heard a lot of interesting things, and I had a good meal!" I'll go back to the palace first, and I'll have the opportunity to leave the palace and come back to play with you in the future! ”

Liu Haojia hurriedly got up and sent Emperor Wanli and the others out. It wasn't until he saw a large number of people huddle around the carriage and walk away that he breathed a sigh of relief! However, he was very happy with how things turned out today! At least he got on the line with Emperor Wanli, and he promised that he would come to look for him when he went out in the future, which is the most important thing!

Emperor Wanli took people back to the palace, and wanted to show off today's harvest with Empress Dowager Li. He didn't know that when he was eating at Shiweizhai, the palace had already gotten the news!

After all, there is no mother who does not love her child, lest he be hurt! Especially a mother with a lot of power in the world, she will naturally take special care of her son! Therefore, Emperor Wanli felt that he was playing freely outside the palace, and in fact, his every move was reported to the palace.

At that time, Empress Dowager Li was chatting with several palace maids, and then she heard a report that Chen Hong's father-in-law asked to see her. Empress Dowager Li said with a smile: "Presumably the news that the Lord is outside has arrived!" It seems that I encountered something new outside today, and the news came quickly! Let him in! ”

A moment later, Chen Hong walked in and gave the Queen Mother a salute. Empress Dowager Li said: "Excuse me, it's not interesting to worship all day long!" Let's talk about it, what is new that Lord Banzai has encountered outside? ”

Chen Hong said: "Back to Niangniang, long live the Lord today is going to Qipan Street!" At the beginning, it was nothing, but today Long Live happened to meet one of the ten scenic spots in the capital, so Long Live Lord went to join in the fun! ”

Empress Dowager Li said with a smile: "I know this Jingshi Ten Scenes Mourning Family, but I don't know which scene the Long Live Lord encountered today!" ”

Chen Hong said with a smile: "It's Liu Haojia, the street tiger of Gu Ningbo's Mansion, who is out of the mountain again today!" ”

The Queen Mother was displeased when she heard this, and said, "How did the people around the Long Live Lord behave on errands?" How can you let Banzai Ye get close to this kind of gentleman! ”

Chen Hong said: "Niangniang, just now the people around Long Live Ye came back with news, saying that there is still another hidden truth in this. ”

Empress Dowager Li said in surprise: "Where is the secret of a gentleman? If it weren't for the rule that the people didn't raise it and the officials didn't hold him accountable, he would have been informed that Shuntianfu had taken him! ”

Chen Hong hurriedly said: "Niangniang doesn't know, although Liu Haojia is rampant and domineering on the street, throwing things and smashing stalls, but he has never hurt anyone, he is still a little measured!" And the most interesting thing is that everything he smashed ends up giving money! ”

Empress Dowager Li was even more surprised when she heard this, and said, "You gave the money back?" What the hell is going on? ”

Chen Hong said: "Long live the news from the people around the Lord that this Liu Haojia was restrained by his family to study and practice martial arts every day, and he couldn't withstand his father's mother, so he had to come out to find the bad luck of those people!" I'm afraid that I will use those people as a punching bag, but I am afraid that the rules of the court will be broken, so I will give enough money behind my back! ”

After speaking, Chen Hong also roughly explained the whole thing before and after, and finally said: "The main thing is that Gu Ningbo's Mansion really didn't have much to look at before, so the slaves and maids didn't pay attention to it, otherwise they would have known the inside story a long time ago!" ”

Empress Dowager Li laughed when she heard this, and said, "What an interesting little monkey! I came up with such a way to relieve my boredom! ”

After Empress Dowager Li listened to all the news in detail, and knew that Emperor Wanli followed Liu Haojia to eat at Shiweizhai, she smiled and said: "Chen Hong, the mourning family thinks, is that Liu Haojia doing this, is he deliberately leading the Lord Wansui to find him?" That's not a clever solution! ”

Chen Hong bowed down and said, "The slave maid wants to come here is also the truth!" But Niangniang doesn't have to worry, there are more people who want to talk to the Lord today, and there is no more of him! It's just that he can come up with this solution, which can be regarded as a thought! It doesn't matter if it's clever or not! However, according to the slave maid, using this method to put his mind on the bright side is much stronger than others! ”

Empress Dowager Li nodded when she heard this. She is not afraid that the courtiers will have thoughts, because if they have thoughts, they will ask for something, and they can be used by the royal family! She worries about people who can't see through their minds because they don't know their purpose. So her face softened a lot, and she said, "That's just as well! It's just that I've heard about this Gu Ningbo Mansion a few times in a trance, but I can't remember it for a while! ”

Chen Hong bowed down and said: "Please also ask the mother to forgive the sin, in a hurry, the slave maid only heard some recent news from Gu Ningbo's mansion." However, the other news slave maid has already sent someone to check, and I think it will pay off soon. ”

Empress Dowager Li said: "Then tell me what you know now!" ”

Chen Hong said: "If you talk about Gu Ningbo's Mansion, you may not know, but if you want to say that Gu Ningbo's Mansion is related to Snow Sugar!" In addition, Niangniang must also know about Shiwei Zhai and Qingya Xiaozhu! ”

After hearing this, Empress Dowager Li sat up straight and said in surprise: "What's the matter, are these things related to his family?" ”

Chen Hong nodded and said, "That's right, Niangniang!" This recipe for snow candy is from Gu Ningbo's mansion, made and sold by Zhang Ji's people! Now many people in the palace are willing to eat snow sugar, and even the imperial dining room uses snow sugar for cooking! As for the elegant small building, it was run by the wives of more than a dozen families who pooled their money together, and the largest ones were several marquises! At the beginning, these ladies were looking for a place where they could be happy and relieve their boredom, but they didn't expect it to become a big deal, among which Gu Ningbo Mansion was the largest shareholder of Qingya Xiaozhu! At present, during this period of time, Gu Ningbo's Mansion has a very close relationship with the Xungui family through Qingya Xiaozhu, which is very powerful! ”
