Since Shi Yushui returned to take charge of the imperial dining room, he has been conscientious every day. After hearing that the emperor was going to organize a festive family banquet, he sat on the stove alone and thought silently.

Although there is no shortage of things in the palace, they are also some rare game. If he wants to get some scarlet-lipped venison, maybe he can still have some ingredients on hand, but Artemisia is a wild vegetable, and it is something that the common people often eat. In the banquet of the Great Chu Palace, there has never been such a blind ingredient.

You have to send someone out of the palace to buy it as soon as possible.

Shi Yushui had just ordered more than a dozen internal supervisors who were in charge of purchasing, when he saw a pretty touch of red coming from the door of the dining room. Shi Yushui hurriedly bowed down and bowed: "The villain's dining room is in charge of Shi Yushui, and I will knock on Her Royal Highness the Princess." ”

The incense crossed the threshold, and the sideburns tinkled with emerald beads. She looked up at the dining room, and said indifferently to Shi Yushui, "Get up." ”

More than a dozen people stood up hulala, as if standing up a wall, and Bao Xi behind the princess covered her smile.

"The princess is on the ground, I don't know what the princess is so expensive?" Shi Yushui lowered his head and hunched his waist, only to see a set of dark green jade beads swaying left and right in front of him for a while, and finally stopped in front of him.

"I heard that the emperor wants to eat white artemisia, do you have it in the dining room?"

Shi Yushui lowered his head slightly, and said softly: "If you go back to the princess, there is no white artemisia in the dining room, so the villain is preparing to send someone out of the palace to procure." ”

"Oh, that's what Princess Ben is here for. ”

"Princess, please. Shi Yushui pressed his body down again, and his body almost became a right angle, parallel to the ground.

Seeing his appearance, Chen Xiang couldn't help but laugh: "You lie so low, how can you talk to this princess and raise your head." ”

"Yes. Shi Yushui responded, but raised his body slightly, but he still couldn't see the princess's face.

The princess flattened her mouth, what a piece of wood. Turning around and snorting at Bao Xi, Bao Xi understood and stuffed a cloth bag in his hand into Shi Yushui's hand.

Shi Yushui held the cloth bag and looked at it for a while, it was light and fluttering, and it seemed to be clothes inside. Not feeling a little surprised, he finally looked up at the princess: "Princess, who are you?"

"This is a garment embroidered by the princess herself. Chen Xiang said slowly.

Shi Yushui's knees weakened, and he fell to the ground with a puff, his body retracted into his shell like a turtle pretending to be dead.

"Princess, princess, you have tormented the villain, the villain always has ten thousand guts, and he doesn't dare to accept this reward from the princess!"

"Ahh ”

"Huh?" Shi Yushui raised his head in amazement, it was not a reward for him, Shi Yushui raised his sleeves and wiped his sweat: "The villain dares to ask, what does the princess mean by this?"

Chen Xiang smiled slightly and said, "I heard that you are going to send someone out of the palace, and this princess has something to ask you." ”

"Please?" Shi Yushui shuddered, the one in front of him was the dignified Princess Chu Chenxiang, the sister of the current emperor. He is just a small palm, how can He De afford a "beg" word from the princess?

"The princess has tormented the villain. Shi Yushui knocked his head down again.

Chen Xiang flattened her mouth and scolded Bao Xi: "Bao Xi, look at you, I'm scared of Shi Zhangshan." After saying that, Chen Xiang passed through his face again, and Wen Ran said to Shi Yushui: "You get up quickly, don't kneel down without moving." ”

"Yes. Shi Yushui held the package and stood up: "What does the princess want to do with the villain?"

"Do you know, Xiyin Hall in the capital?"

Shi Yushui froze for a moment, this name was very familiar, and it seemed to have been hanging in his ears: "Yes...... Is it the property of the Imperial Merchant of the Inner Palace?"

Chen Xiang nodded: "It's not very peaceful these days, and it's inconvenient for this princess to go out of the palace." I heard that you used to work in the Prince's Mansion, so you should be a trustworthy person. I'll leave this matter to you, so that this princess can rest assured. ”

Shi Yushui nodded: "Although the princess commands, the villain will do his best." ”

Bao Xi hooked his hand, called Shi Yushui aside, and said, "I don't need you to fight for your life, it's just that I want you to transfer this package to the second owner of Xi Yin Hall." Remember, the current big owner of Xi Yintang is the second lady of the Wei Mansion, and you have to hand over the things to the second owner, that is, the eldest young master of the Wei family. Do you understand?"

Shi Yushui glanced at Bao Xi silently, saying this, he couldn't understand it anymore. Who doesn't know that the eldest prince of Weifu is the master of the horse set by the first emperor. The princess gave the clothes she made herself to the eldest young master, isn't this the love of men and women, and the secret song?

Help the princess match, if the matter is done, it will naturally be able to please the princess. Besides, it's just a matter of handing over a piece of clothing, and it's not a hassle.

Seeing that Shi Yushui didn't speak, Bao Xi slapped him heavily on the crook of his arm: "Do you understand?"

"Got it, got it. Shi Yushui nodded suddenly.

"Shi Yushui, if this matter is done well, this princess will definitely be rewarded, but if it is not done well, don't worry about this princess demolishing your imperial dining room. Chen Xiang gave Bao Xi a look, and Bao Xi took out a five-tael gold ingot from his sleeve and quietly stuffed it to Shi Yushui: "Take it, the princess will reward you with the money for running errands." ”

Sending Princess Chenxiang away, Shi Yushui turned the gold ingot and turned back carelessly. Suddenly, the same pair of eyes looked at each other, Shi Yushui looked him up and down, it turned out to be his former sous chef. When he was asked by the prince to go to the prince's mansion to be the imperial chef, it was this little thin man who took over his position.

"Thin monkey, what do you see?" Shi Yushui drank coldly, and put the package on the table by the wall, so as not to stain the princess's gift with oil and water.

The thin monkey shook his head: "Shizhangshan, it is forbidden to pass on privately in the palace, the villain advises you not to go to this troubled water, if the matter is revealed, it is your Shizhangshan who is unlucky." Princess Chenxiang is the emperor's own sister, who can do anything to her? ”

Having said that, Shi Yushui had already thought of it when he took the package, but what could he do, when the princess spoke, how dare he disobey?

Shi Yushui waved his hand, his eyes full of impatience: "Okay, okay, I know in my heart, you don't talk nonsense." ”

The comprador of the dining room got up and left the palace the next morning, and Shi Yushui was among them. As soon as he left the palace gate, he dispersed the little eunuch who was in charge of purchasing in the dining room, and he held the package and inquired about the whereabouts of Xi Yintang.

Xi Yintang is not famous, but the name of the Wei family is very loud, as long as you ask where the Wei family's pawnshop is, eight out of ten can tell you the exact direction. Therefore, Shi Yushui's journey to Xiyin Hall was not difficult, and he did not detour far.

Raising his eyes to look at the signboard of the three gilded characters in Xi Yin Hall, Shi Yushui coughed his throat and strode in.

The pawnshop was quite cold, there were no customers, Shi Yushui's eyes turned around in the pawnshop three times, and finally landed on a delicately dressed woman.

"Slave Shi Yushui, please say hello to the second lady. Shi Yushui dusted his sleeves and bowed.

Yuan Yue heard someone call her, put down the piano sheet in her hand, looked down and saw Shi Yushui kneeling on the ground, so she smiled and said, "It's Shi Yushui, get up quickly." ”

Yuan Yue asked the little girl to give Shi Yushui a cup of tea, and Shi Yushui put the package in his hand on the table.

Yuan Yue paused for a moment and said with a smile: "Now that you have made the palm meal in the palace, do you still want to pawn things?"

Yuan Yue said, then reached out to open the package, Shi Yushui hurriedly stepped forward to stop it, and said with a smile: "Second Miss, this thing was taken out of the palace by the princess of Chenxiang, saying that it was a piece of clothing sewn by the princess herself, and she wanted to give it to ...... Ahem. ”

Yuan Yue saw Shi Yushui's oily and slippery appearance, and couldn't help but smile: "Come on, don't mess with that Western scene, I know who it was given to." ”

"Second Miss, you are Shengming. Shi Yushui took a sip of tea and asked, "Isn't the eldest young master in the store?"

Yuan Yue glanced at him, and stopped talking. Cheng Yong has been lingering in the sweet house in Dongshi City these days, and if he doesn't get drunk, he will definitely not return home. For this matter, Wei Dongshu and the old lady reprimanded him every day, but he did not change.

The old lady ordered his servants to confine him in the house, but he could always find the way out of the side door to eat and drink, or he would lie on the couch and sleep from morning till dark, without touching a pen or paper.

"Oh, eldest brother, he studied the books of the sages in the mansion and rarely came here. It's me, who has nothing to do, and goes to the store to take care of the cooking affairs. ”

Shi Yushui sat idly for a while, drank a cup of tea, and saw that the time was almost up, so he got up and said goodbye.

Yuan Yue naturally did not treat him badly, and rewarded him with fifty taels of silver for the carriage and horse fare.

As soon as Shi Yushui left, Yuan Yue's eyes fell on the package, and he was curious, so he opened the package casually and took a look. Inside was a robe with not too delicate embroidery, and the stitches were a little clumsy, but they were quite delicate. The important thing is that this piece of material is good, and the color is also very suitable for Chengyong.

Yuan Yue pursed her lips and smiled, she couldn't imagine that this childlike princess would mature once she fell in love with a man. People who have never touched female celebrities, once they get serious, they can embroider a dress decently.

Cheng Yong is a blessed person, Chenxiang's heart is as precious as fast gold, a person's life, if you can meet a sincere person like Princess Chenxiang, love yourself with all your heart, how happy it should be?

Yuan Yue was looking at her clothes and was distracted, when she suddenly heard someone talking behind her.

"To whom are you going to give this garment?"

As soon as Yuan Yue turned around, Rong Run looked at herself with a crooked face and a smile.

Yuan Yueyi was so nervous that she didn't even know which leg to take in the salute. Rong Run saw her like this, she was really cute, so she waved her hand and said with a smile: "That's it, this is in your store, how can the boss give a salute to the guests?"

Rong Run sat down in Shi Yushui's seat, looked down at the remaining tea leaves in the cup, and said with a smile: "Is the business very good now?

Yuan Yue lowered her face, a little restrained, and shouted, "Xiang'er, serve tea to the sixth master." With that, he neatly accepted the package and walked straight to the inner hall.
