And it's still very obvious.

This eccentric-eyed emperor.

Meng Yuzhu knew that this was not what it used to be, and her heart was also lightened, but she thought again, she was a concubine and a royal jade dish, could it be that the emperor would treat her for the sake of a mere eunuch? Absurd.

The emperor straightened the corners of his robe, did not smile, and stared at Meng Yuzhu with eyes that could poke two holes for Meng Yuzhu on the spot: "The concubine has been in the harem for many years, and she still doesn't know the rules of the harem?" Beat and scolded the slaves at will, and violated the taboo of Chen Guogong. ”

Meng Yuzhu's hand trembled, and the red gold armor in his hand fell to the ground.

"The concubine knows that she is wrong."

"In that case, the concubine will go back and memorize the palace rules, and if you are familiar with it, go to Jingren Palace to let the queen review it, really remember it, and then come out and walk around."

This really poked Meng Yuzhu's lung tube.

Chen Guogong has many rules and tricks, over the years, Meng Yuzhu has been rampant and domineering in the harem, and she has acted according to her own mood, when has Chen Guogong rules been taboo? Besides, she is not very literate, these things that are copied and recited have always been her weakness, and she is usually anxious to read a menu, and she is stumbling to see it, and now she has given her a big job, let her memorize the palace rules? It's not enough to memorize the palace rules, but to let the queen accept it, this can't be fooled, this obviously costs her half a life.

Meng Yuzhu regretted coming to Taihe Palace this time, and she didn't turn over the yellow calendar when she went out, and she was bumping into the emperor's taboo.

Just as he was about to accept the soft plea, the emperor said again: "Since you are reciting the palace rules in Changle Palace, you must not be able to spend money, and the monthly silver will be deducted for three months." ”

Meng Yuzhu staggered back to Changle Palace, and her dejected appearance frightened everyone.

Cashew Nut was about to help her to rest, Meng Yuzhu's long nails picked at the copper incense burner, and fire could come out of her eyes: "What are you resting on, why don't you go to the Internal Affairs Office to get me a few palace rules, and the palace will have to carry it." ”

Cashew nut trotted all the way to borrow the palace rules, and brought back three books in one go, each of which was five centimeters thick.

Meng Yuzhu felt dizzy when she flipped through one of them, such a thick palace rule, God.

In the side hall, Tian Lingyue was eating a small hot pot around the hearth.

The new lamb sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, melts in the mouth, the taste is rich, it is very hot to eat a small hot pot in winter, make a few side dishes, warm a pot of fruit wine, open the window, and watch the snow outside while eating wine, there is nothing more comfortable than this.

Mangosteen whispered: "The concubine scolded the cashew nut in the main hall, saying that the cashew nut walked around like a spinning top to delay her from reciting the palace rules."

”

The corners of Tian Lingyue's mouth rose slightly, and she put some mutton into the small hot pot.

"This time, the emperor actually saved the face of a concubine for a servant, and I heard that the concubine was also deducted from her monthly money for three months."

Tian Lingyue sighed, her brows stretched, and it seemed that the snow outside was also better.

In the Taihe Palace, Gao Rang finished smearing the medicine on Erjo, and Erjo did not forget to remind the emperor: "If there are dishes that the emperor likes to eat on this menu, the emperor can only choose them, and the servants will definitely send them to the emperor as soon as possible." ”

The emperor rubbed the dog-like words on the menu: "Erjo, you took a slap, is it really okay?" ”

"The slave is fine, the concubine is the concubine, the slave is the slave, the concubine beats the slave, and the slave does not dare to complain."

"You have some heart, and you deserve to be a person who is always there."

"Our master said that if you are wronged by the delivery of takeaways, you can get a pocket fee when you go back."

The emperor was obviously interested.

I've heard of the nest waste, and the first time I've heard of the nest fee.

"Tell me, what's the trick?" The emperor untied the collar robe, the avocado incense of the Taihe Palace floated slowly, the charcoal fire in the copper furnace burned very strongly, the heat lingered in the hall for a long time, and there was shallow sweat on the emperor's eyebrows.

Erjo made it clear to the emperor that Du only said that he would customize the nest fee at the meeting.

"What else do you have besides the pocket fee?"

"The minions still have insurance premiums."

"Insurance premiums? Let's talk about it. "The emperor listened to it with taste, and he was even more attentive than listening to Nanfu singing. After all, those dramas in Nanfu, such as "Autumn in the Han Palace", "The Story of the Pipa", and "Monkey King vs. White Bone Spirit", have watched a lot, and the emperor can hum two sentences about what plot and line, but this insurance premium is unheard of. You have to see a long way.

After Erjo explained the matter of insurance premiums clearly, the emperor couldn't help but sigh: "Don't say, your master is still very far-sighted, the so-called people have no foresight, there must be near-term worries, your master can take precautions, this is very good, and she is really thinking about you, being her slave, you are blessed." ”

The emperor praised Du Zhiyan, and Erjo was happy.

This is simply a bosom friend.

Nijo also showed off: "In addition to the nest fee and insurance fee, the minions can also get a delivery fee, and the delivery fee for sending meals to each palace is a few to dozens of yuan, and the minions are allowed to take it themselves, and our master doesn't want it." At this point, the minions can also earn a lot of themselves. ”

"She's still very generous."

The emperor pinched his fingers and carefully calculated how many people he had in his harem, how many palaces, how many special snacks he could sell in a day, how much profit he could make, except for the minions, how much income Du Zhiyan had in the account, after calculating, the emperor sighed that Du Zhiyan had a better future in business than being a little wife for him, and being a little wife for him was a grievance.

This woman, not only has a set of business, but also understands the righteousness and compassion for the subordinates, what a broad mind this is, how wise and martial she was at the beginning, among the hundreds of show girls, under the thousands of choices, she accurately slipped into the palace and became his woman.

Even Gao Rang sighed, Erjo, these little cubs, can be regarded as embarking on the bright road, this method of earning, will be the best of the harem eunuchs in the future.

The emperor decided to help Du Zhiyan's business.

"As I said yesterday, I want to eat fried chicken, so I'll send a fried chicken to Taihe Palace in an hour."

An hour, the time is very loose, and it can be delivered on time.

The emperor added another condition: "Last time you said, if I order takeout, Yongfu Hall will give some additional benefits, gifts, if I order fried chicken, what will you give?" ”

"This giveaway has to be decided by our master, and the minions dare not make their own decisions."

"Stingy." The emperor helped his forehead: "Then let your master personally send the fried chicken, and by the way, explain to me about the gift." ”

Nijo went back to restore his life, Du Zhiyan saw the finger marks on Nijo's face, and the thought of fighting his team's waist rose again: "Why did she beat my minions?" How much money did you earn her? ”

Erjo was afraid of trouble, so he quickly knelt down: "Master, the emperor has already punished the concubine Niangniang, and the concubine Niangniang placed an order, saying that she wanted a creamy pumpkin, please make it in the small kitchen for half a pillar of incense, and the slave will go to Changle Palace to deliver food." At this time, it is estimated that the concubine is already waiting. ”

The news in the palace spread at the speed of light, and Du Zhiyan already knew about Meng Yuzhu's deflatedness.

I thought that Nijo would come to complain, but I didn't want Nijo to understand the righteousness, and he still focused on the business of the Eternal Blessing Temple.

Who wouldn't like such a loyal and sincere minion.

Of course, such people cannot be wronged.

Du only said that he immediately sent a nest fee to Erjo, and explained to everyone: "You don't have to make the creamy pumpkin in Changle Palace." ”

The minion in the small kitchen: "Maybe in a hurry, although the half-pillar incense can't be made, it's almost the same, choose a minion who runs the fastest errands to send it, and the concubine may let us go." ”

Du Zhiyan pressed the menu: "What I said at the meeting yesterday counts, can't you forget it?" From today onwards, for customers like Changle Palace who find faults, they will be blocked for one month, and if they commit another offense, they will be blocked for half a year. ”

Mama Zhao and the others waited on the steps, and they felt that Du Zhiyan spoke neatly and neatly, not dragging mud and water, as if he was a little powerful, but everyone didn't know what it meant to be blacked.

"Block Changle Palace for a month, that is, within this month, don't do Changle Palace's business, she has money, and we won't sell it."

If the business of Changle Palace is not done, the business of other palaces will still be done.

The small kitchen was tinkling, and the prepared meals were quickly delivered.

Only the order of Taihe Palace makes it difficult.

Nijo told the emperor's request, saying that the emperor wanted a gift.

Du Zhiyan carefully wrapped the fried chicken that the emperor wanted, and turned out a purple-skinned onion from the vegetable basket.

"The emperor buys a fried chicken and takes care of our business, and we can't be stingy and give the emperor a piece of fruit."

"Master, where is the fruit?"

"Purple-skinned onion is, this kind of onion skin is thin and watery, sweet and moist in a bite, rich in vitamins ABCDEFG, the most important thing is cheap and affordable, the emperor should eat more cheap and affordable things, this is with the people."

It's just a purple-skinned onion, and it can't be climbed so high by Du Zhiyan.

Nijo said, "The emperor asked you to send it in person." ”

"I'm now in charge of the small kitchen of the Yongfu Palace, there are many people ordering, I'm busy, if I go, it's cold to the delivery, or you go, explain to the emperor well."

Nijo carried fried chicken to Taihe Palace.

Gao Rang saw that Nijo had arrived from afar, and hurriedly reported to the emperor through the window: "Your Majesty, the people from the Yongfu Palace are here." ”

The emperor was talking to the emperor, supervising the imperial history and several adults of the military aircraft department, and was listening to them talk about the tortuous relationship between Yelang Prince Zhou Wujian and Yelang Wang, and that Yelang's national strength was defeated and now he was recuperating, and said that at the end of the year, the border was bitterly cold, and a heavy snow in December froze many livestock, and His Royal Highness the King of Yue needed the capital to support another 50,000 taels of silver for armament.

These lords of the military aircraft department are all old ministers left by the first emperor, and they are loyal, and their news should be correct.

The emperor stood with his hands tied, calmly helping to analyze.

It was a bit of a surprise that Du Zhong, the superintendent of the imperial history, was brought over, after all, his five-grade official position usually belongs to the emperor's heels, how can he have any chance to face Sheng in person, and he also discussed with a group of military ministers, which is really high.

Du Zhong thought that the emperor's promotion could not live up to the holy will, so he said in a loud voice: "As far as the minister knows, although the frontier is bitterly cold, the soldiers brought by His Royal Highness the King of Yue have already been normally allocated silver in the court, and what is the reason for supporting 50,000 taels of silver for armament?" Although the national strength of Chen Guo is strong, there are many states and counties, there are Yelang eyeing the outside, and there are tens of millions of Li people waiting to be fed, 50,000 taels of silver is not a small amount, and if you can't hand over the fold, you can give the silver, so His Royal Highness the King of Yue should write down the detailed accounts, write them down one by one, and then have the court to check whether it is allocated. ”

The emperor coughed.

Du Zhong ate the bear's heart and leopard gall, and dared to say something about the king of Yue, since the first emperor, the king of Yue led the troops, and if he wanted the silver, the court had to give it, and occasionally when the foreign military orders were not accepted, the court could not say anything, after all, he was the prince of Chen Guo, and he would not harm Chen Guo, who would dare to say a word, Du Zhong was in which door to lower his head.

Several ministers outside the military plane were already dissatisfied when they saw a petty official like Du Zhong coming to participate in government affairs, and when they heard Du Zhong making noise here, several ministers' faces were not good-looking.

"Lord Du, don't scream here, what do you know about the military aircraft major event? I'm afraid you're not stunned all day long. ”

"Lord Du is thinking that if his daughter marries into the inner palace, someone will support her, and you should die if you discuss major military affairs, Lord Du, you have a few heads, and His Royal Highness King Yue needs armaments, which you can also beak."

Du Zhong was unhurried on the surface, sweating behind his back: "Although Weichen is not talented, he has to think about the emperor when he holds the emperor's money, and the emperor's silver is not blown by the wind." ”

"That's a good point." The emperor almost wanted to applaud Du Zhong, but Du Zhong knew his difficulties, what did the little money in Neku do now, King Yue was asking for military salaries and silver for seven or eight months out of twelve months a year, and it was also difficult for the emperor to scrape together. Regardless of whether what Du Zhong said is right or not, Du Zhong is at least the emperor's heart.

The emperor held his hands and secretly observed the window, and there was a small black shadow outside the window.

The courtiers were discussing: "Your Majesty, this Du Zhong is disturbing the morale of the army in the Taihe Palace, and he should be punished to set an example." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, Du Zhong must have bad intentions to say such a thing."

The corners of the emperor's mouth raised: "I don't know what Aiqing means, Du Aiqing." ”

"The minister is here."

"You're right this time, but don't say it next time."

"Obey."

"But the emperor-" The Minister of Military Aircraft still had to hold on, not wanting the emperor to lick the corners of his mouth: "Aiqing has been talking for a long time, and they should be tired, so I invite everyone to eat fried chicken." You don't know, this Yongfu Hall has recently opened a small kitchen, and my Du Chang is here, he has a good skill in cooking, and the food he cooks is guaranteed to be unforgettable. ”

Emperor Shi Yirin: "Your Majesty, never forget, it was first published in Tang Fang Xuanling's "Book of Jin and Fu Rong Records", which can be remembered once you read it, describing people with strong memory. It's inappropriate here. ”

"I know, what I mean is that I invite you to eat fried chicken, and if you care, don't leave, everyone has a share."

The Minister of War Aircraft sighed and retired one after another.

The aroma of fried chicken has already wafted in, what else to say?

The emperor asked Du Zhong with a smile: "When Du Zhiyan was a daughter at home, did he also have the skills to cook?" ”

Du Zhong re-read Du Zhiyan's resume in the past ten years, and he didn't think of Du Zhiyan's talent for cooking, or any other specialties, just an ordinary child, the enlightenment is not early, and the growth is not natural, and she is also an ordinary family, and she has not cultivated her interests and specialties in other aspects.

"This is strange, could it be that you only learned it when you entered the palace? I don't remember which palace man has such craftsmanship. ”
