Chapter 233: Counter-reconnaissance
When the sixth master heard that Yuan Xi said that he wanted to deal with Lan Chengjie, he took the initiative to ask Ying to take Li Lin back. Yuan Xi looked at the north wind in the courtyard, and knew that he was not easy to walk on the road, rubbed his eyebrows, and raised his eyes to look at him: "Where is Li Lin?"
The sixth master smiled innocently and scratched his head: "Return to Yunzhou." β
Yuan Xi almost choked to death with a mouthful of spit, return, return to Yunzhou? Yuan Xi was stunned, as if the lonely camel bell sounded in his ears, or the tune of Xintianyou, which was high in the sky.
Yuan Xibian flattened his mouth: "Do you dare to choose a place farther away? Why don't you just send it to the Great Snow Mountain in the Western Regions to freeze it?"
The sixth master shrugged: "It's inconvenient to thaw." β
Are the two of them crazy enough to make Li Lin so far, besides, Guiyunzhou used to be the chassis of the fourth master Xiao Rongcheng, isn't this insisting on sending the fat sheep to the tiger's mouth?
Yuan Xi shook his head helplessly: "Okay, there is no other way anyway." I wish you a smooth journey to the west. β
"Would you like to bring you a few more volumes of Buddhist scriptures or something?"
After Rong Run said this unbeatable sentence, he was beaten out of the prince's mansion by Yuan Xi and Zhong's mother. The door behind him slammed shut, and Rong Run turned around and wanted to slam the door, but his hand stopped in the air and hesitated for a moment.
"Isn't it Guiyunzhou, why are you so fierce?" Rong Run carefully pulled his crumpled clothes, stepped on the black horse tied to the door, and patted it: "Chasing the wind, how about I take you to Guiyunzhou tomorrow?"
Rong Run turned over, got up from the ground, patted the snow and dust all over his body, and pointed at Chasing Wind and said, "What kind of stinky temper are you?!"
Chasing the wind kicked his legs, staring at him with a pair of big black eyes.
"Get up!" Rong Run tugged at the reins, but Chasing the Wind just didn't move. He couldn't be angry, so he simply threw the reins: "Okay, okay, I won't take you there." β
Before the words fell, Chasing Feng stood up, and the horse's hooves knocked briskly on the ground, making a gurgling sound.
The sixth master glared, it seemed that this was a bit far away from Yunzhou, and he even refused to go.
Isn't it just more than 2,000 miles? What's the big deal, I didn't say that I was squeamish. The sixth master stepped on the horse and held the horse's belly: "Let's go, go home." β
Mother Zhong leaned on the crack of the door and watched this scene, holding back her laughter and almost holding back her internal injuries.
Shi Yushui, a new cook in the kitchen, grinds the dried rose petals into minced pieces, mixes them with red bean paste filling, and steams the small cakes with glutinous rice peels. Today is his first day in the palace, and it is not easy to get out of the palace, not only to ask the emperor to show him, but also to check up and down. It was easy to get out of the house, but I found that the princess's child had fallen.
Shi Yushui was muttering in his heart, didn't he leave the palace because the prince asked him to cook meals for the pregnant princess? At this time, the princess had already had a miscarriage, would he be angry when he saw him? He wanted to ask other people in the small kitchen to help bring snacks, but no one was willing to help him.
Last time, his appearance made the prince scold the people in the entire small kitchen, saying that so many cooks are not as good as a Shi Yushui and ability. Now the people in the kitchenette knew that he had a problem today, and they all stood aside, waiting to see his jokes.
Shi Yushui really had no choice, and he couldn't help but send snacks. With a small plate, he went to the courtyard of the crown princess. Kneeling before entering the door, this is the survival experience summed up by years of court life.
Mother Zhong took the plate in his hand, looked at the crystal clear little cake, and said with a smile: "Niangniang, look, how clever this snack is!"
Yuan Xi glanced down, it was quite a coincidence, the last time he saw such a delicate dim sum, he was still in the upper pavilion. Won-hee took a piece with chopsticks and sent it to his mouth. Sweet but not greasy, melts in your mouth. This glutinous rice peel is not sweet, but it is very strong, which just neutralizes the sweetness of the red bean paste. The crumbs of roses add a touch of decoration to the ugly lump of bean paste filling, and then add a floral fragrance to the dim sum .
"It tastes good, but it reminds me of the stone jade water I used to make fish noodles last time. β
Mother Zhong glanced down at Shi Yushui, and her face changed: "Niangniang, it is Shi Yushui." β
"Oh?" Yuan Xi put down his chopsticks and looked at Shi Yushui: "When did you enter the mansion?"
"Back to the master. Today, today. Shi Yushui lowered his head, almost scared to death.
"You seem scared, huh?" Won-hee stared at him for a moment.
"No, no, the villain is not afraid. Shi Yushui raised his head and barely squeezed out a smile. Can this squeezed smile be good-looking? Squeeze a good face like a persimmon stepping on a flat face.
Mother Zhong sneered, and Yuan Xi wanted to laugh too, but she held back her face, picked up a small cake and handed it to Mother Zhong and said, "You taste it." β
After eating it, Mother Zhong nodded again and again: "Niangniang, I don't think it's worse than the one in the upper cabinet." β
Yuanxi is thinking about opening a branch, Liu Tianbao has been learning from Lu Shenglin every day, and he can also learn a way these days. As the saying goes, the people take food as the sky, and the people can leave anything, but they can't do without food. In the past, it was just an antique business, although it could make a thousand eight hundred taels a piece, but it was just silver from one person.
If we can open the Upper Cabinet everywhere, won't we be able to make money from more people? A few days ago, Lu Shenglin's steamed buns made from vegetable leftovers were sold in a big way, and he made a lot of money. This shows that a small amount can still be a lot. Shi Yushui is the imperial chef from the palace, if Shi Yushui is allowed to be the head chef, then this restaurant should be regarded as a imitation meal.
The wishful thinking in Won-hee's heart was crackling, and a burst of coquettish laughter suddenly came from outside the door.
As soon as Yuan Xi looked up, a little girl was blocking left and right in front of Wei Yuanjia. Wei Yuanjia was twisting his waist and walking inside, thinking that the little girl was an eyesore, and pushed her aside.
The little girl was aggrieved: "Niangniang, the slave stopped it, but didn't stop it." β
"What is she doing here?" Mother Zhong muttered quietly.
Yuan Xi waved his hand, asked the little girl to go down first, and sneered: "Sister, what kind of rules is this?
"Break?" Wei Yuanjia sneered: "I didn't break in, third sister, sister, I just came to see you, by the way, to see your wishful thinking." β
Wei Yuanjia glanced at Lai Yuanxi and couldn't help but roll the whites of his eyes. I don't know what Prince He means to her, what is it, I have to ask myself to send her a letter, what words can't be said clearly in front of the gong, I have to write it on the letter. It is also called temptation. Yuan Jia snorted, tentatively probing, tempting a fart, obviously thinking about his sweetheart, but he was so sullen that he didn't dare to come and see it.
Yuan Xi didn't say anything to her, just looked at Shi Yushui and turned his head slightly. Who would have thought that as soon as Shi Yushui got up and turned his head, he was held down by Wei Yuanjia on the shoulder.
Yuan Jia pressed Shi Yushui with one hand, pinched a piece of dim sum from the plate with the other, and said with a smile: "Yo, whose craft is this, making dim sum like pigskin jelly." β
Yuan Jia really didn't treat himself as an outsider, he picked up the snack and ate it. Mother Zhong glanced at her, she was not afraid that it was poisonous.
"Bah!" Wei Yuanjia chewed for a while and squirted out a mouthful of dim sum in his mouth. Yuan Xi dodged and hurriedly stood up.
"You did this?" Yuan Jia looked at Shi Yushui: "It's really unpalatable, like a candle." β
"My sister has eaten candles? Won-hee said sarcastically.
Wei Yuanjia snorted: "Third sister, I didn't say you, now your level of selection is getting lower and lower." First is Lu Shenglin, who betrays the Lord to seek glory, and then this cook who cracks melons and jujubes, hum, he is really hungry. β
Mother Zhong was a little suspicious, Wei Yuanjia rarely came to the Prince's Mansion, and when she came here today, I was afraid that she didn't know if it was just to sarcastically say a few words about Yuan Xi, right? β
Yuan Xi naturally knew that Wei Yuanjia was not good, so he looked at her coldly: "What is my sister doing when she comes in, it's better to say it, so that my sister can be prepared." β
Wei Yuanjia pushed Shi Yushui with one hand, went to the table, and took out a letterhead from his arms: "Well, the prince asked me to give it to you." β
Mother Zhong took the letterhead, but found that the opening of the letter had already been torn open. Mother Zhong looked at Yuan Xi in amazement, and Yuan Xi judged Wei Yuanjia for a while. Yuan Jiabian flattened his mouth: "I tore it, and the prince is my man, I think what's wrong with his letter? Otherwise, how do I know if the two of you will secretly communicate with each other." β
Yuan Xi smiled coldly: "This sister doesn't have to doubt it, my sister is not hungry yet." β
Wei Yuanjia's face twitched, is this blatantly saying that his man is not of good quality?
Yuan Xi hurriedly swept the letter around, and threw it in Wei Yuanjia's arms. Yuan Jia grabbed the letterhead: "What do you mean by this?"
"I'm done. Won-hee looked at her proudly.
"And then?" Yuan Jia was stunned, and it was over after reading it, and he didn't give a reply?
"What?" Won-hee was inexplicable.
"The meaning of the prince is clear, whether you agree or not, you have to give a word, right?"
Yuan Xi sneered and looked at Mother Zhong: "Did you hear that? Hahaha. Yuanxi turned his head to look at Wei Yuanjia and held back a smile: "Go back and tell you and the prince that the emperor has his own holy judgment on the matter of King Lijun marrying Lanyu privately, and you disobey the holy order, don't get involved with me." β
Wei Yuanjia stood up suddenly: "Wei Yuanxi, can you see clearly, that's called 10,000 taels of gold! Just ask you to ask the fourth master to intercede, is it difficult?"
Yuan Xi looked at her solemnly: "Ask for a favor? Ask for mercy, can't there be a personal favor first? Between us, what else is there besides hatred? He Prince is too naΓ―ve, and he wants to buy me for 10,000 taels of gold? Do you think I haven't seen money?"
"You really don't agree?" Wei Yuanjia glanced at her.
"No," Yuan Xi said word by word: "To tell you the truth, you should be glad that I am too lazy to take care of this, otherwise even the ten Lijun kings will also participate in him." β
Yuan Jia raised her eyebrows, so she didn't plan to meddle in Lanyu's affairs?
