Wei Wen hesitated again and again, but couldn't help but said to Chen Xiaomu in a suspicious tone: "Sixth Prince, no matter how good your concept is, I'm afraid that except for Qin's money culture, people in Qi have a lot of nicknames in the world today. Shen Ruliang, the people of Qi called him Shen Wuliang, and Feng Wanxin of Jin, known as Feng Wanjin. These three people can afford it, but others are afraid that they are powerless even if they want to buy it!"
Chen Xiaomu shook his head and said with a smile: "Prime Minister Wei, to be honest, this concept of mine can be sold separately."
Wei Wen was even more confused now. He didn't understand that this treasure called concept could be dismantled and sold, but if it had been taken apart, could it still be called a treasure?
Just as the two of them were whispering in the corner of the court, they heard the eunuch in charge, Eunuch Wang, calling from the palace: "Master Chief Assistant, the emperor has ordered that after retreating from the court, you, Shangshu Lu and Shangshu Dai will stay in the emperor's study room. Discussion.”
When Wei Wen heard this, he didn't bother to talk to Chen Xiaomu anymore, and quickly pulled him back to the civil service train. He cupped his hands in front of Su Chengxuan and said, "Here, I obey the order."
Su Chengxuan glanced at him with a lot of displeasure in his eyes. Wei Wen couldn't help but complain secretly in his heart and said to himself: "If your precious son-in-law hadn't caused this mess, I would have pulled him off the train to discuss it in a hurry. Any aftermath?"
Zhuge Cheng was sitting in the Taishi chair opposite, with a smile that couldn't be concealed in the corners of his mouth and eyes. At this time, he seemed to still have something to say. When he saw Wei Wen and Chen Xiaomu returning to the train, he stood up from the Taishi chair and faced Su Chengxuan held up his hands, but before he could speak, Su Chengxuan suddenly waved his sleeves and said, "I'm a little tired, let's retreat from the court!"
Upon hearing this, the prince immediately shouted to the civil and military officials in the court below: "According to the emperor's decree, the court will withdraw this morning."
Zhuge Cheng blinked his eyes and watched Su Chengxuan stand up from the dragon chair and walk behind the screen. Originally, he wanted to provoke Chen Xiaomu again and ask him to write another document such as a guarantee letter in front of the court. It's written in black and white. I can't rely on it, but now I have to give it up for now.
Before Wei Wen left for the imperial study, he quietly told Chen Xiaomu: "Sixth Prince, after the court, I will go to Princess Qingfeng's mansion to visit you. Wan Wang is waiting for me at the mansion."
Chen Xiaomu remained silent, nodded slightly, then turned around and walked out of the court following the retired civil and military officials.
Besides, Zhuge Cheng returned to the Taiwei Mansion. As soon as he got out of the car, he whispered to Sun San, the steward of the manor who came up to him: "Hurry and go to the Forbidden Army camp outside the city, find Wang Tao, and ask him to come to the manor secretly. Just say that I have something urgent to ask him."
Sun San quickly cupped his hands, turned around and ran towards the outside of the city. Zhuge Cheng stood in front of the mansion gate for a long time, then turned back to the car and said to his bodyguard and coachman: "Lao Yu, follow me. Go to Yuanfeng Winery on Huzheng Street."
Lao Yu nodded, waved the long whip in his hand, and made a loud crack in the air with a "pop" sound. The two horses pulling the cart immediately ran along the bluestone road in front of the Taiwei Mansion with the sound of hoofbeats, bang, bang. stand up.
What Zhuge Cheng didn't expect was that just as his carriage was running forward, another carriage on the roadside that was engaged in trouble appeared not far behind his carriage and followed closely behind him. .
Lao Yu, who was driving Zhuge Cheng's carriage, was an extremely shrewd middle-aged man. He quickly discovered the carriage behind him through his keen hearing. Lao Yu said calmly and softly: "There seems to be someone behind Mr. Taiwei." A carriage is following us."
"Oh" Zhuge Cheng couldn't help but feel a sinking feeling in his heart when he heard this, and thought to himself: "Is it possible that I was targeted for the first time when I went to court today? He pondered for a long time and reflected on his performance in the court just now. Although he was a little eager for success, but I didn't feel any flaws were exposed.
''Lord Taiwei, Huzheng Street is ahead of us, can't we get through? "At this moment, Lao Yu's voice came from the front again.
Zhuge Cheng thought for a moment and then ordered: "Continue to Yuanfeng Winery. When you get to the door, go down and buy a few jars of wine and put them in the car. Also say hello to Lian Hu and ask him not to act rashly in the winery these days. , after you come out, go to the pastry shop next to the wine shop and buy a few pastries, bring them back, and then go directly back home!"
"Okay." Lao Yu nodded and agreed. Then he shook the horse stiffly in his hand, and the carriage turned into Huzheng Street. Huzheng Street is called a street, but it is actually a long and wide street. The alley is two to three feet long. In the past, there was a well in this alley, and the water in the well was very sweet, so the locals called this alley Sweet Water Alley. Since the imperial court moved the Hubu Yamen here two years ago, this alley has become lively. Many people come and go to the Hubu Yamen every day to do business. I don’t know when the Tianshui Lane in people’s mouth was naturally changed to the new name of Huzheng Street.
After the carriage stopped in front of Yuanfeng Winery, Lao Yu followed Zhuge Cheng's instructions and first went in and moved two jars of wine out and put them on the car. Then he went to the pastry shop next to the winery and bought a few large bags of pastries and brought them out. Taking advantage of the situation, he glanced behind the car with the corner of his eye. Sure enough, a single-horse carriage for rental was parked not far behind their carriage. Sitting on the carriage was a man with a dark face who looked quite honest and honest. As a young man, after Lao Yu put away the pastries, he drove back to Taiwei's Mansion without talking to Zhuge Cheng in the car.
When Chen Xiaomu returned to the princess's house, it was almost noon. He was in a hurry and had not come to eat breakfast in the morning. He was already hungry and hungry. Fortunately, Su Xingran had already prepared a sumptuous meal and was waiting for him to come back. When he saw Chen Xiaomu walked into the yard, and Su Xingran smiled and said: "Husband, it's your first time to go to court today, can you talk nonsense again?" Chen Xiaomu shook his head, hurriedly sat down at the table, picked up the chopsticks and was about to start. He was really hungry and anxious. I didn't know how to be humble to the princess Su Xingran, holding chopsticks in one hand and a fat chicken leg in the other, opening my cheeks and eating a big piece of it.
Su Xingran pulled a stool and sat next to him, supported her chin with her hand, looked at him and smiled: "Husband, how do these dishes taste?"
"Well, well, it's so delicious." At this time, Chen Xiaomu's mouth was full of food, and he mumbled and nodded in praise.
''Do you know who did it? "Su Xingran asked with a smile.
Chen Xiaomu suddenly rolled his eyes twice and swallowed the delicious food in his mouth. Then he shouted to Su Xingran: "Honey, can you not make your husband talk when he is eating? Do you know that you almost choked him to death?" !”
Su Xingran quickly reached out and patted Chen Xiaomu's back several times, giggling and saying, "Who told you to eat in such a hurry? Wouldn't it be okay if you eat more slowly?"
Chen Xiaomu said: "You put it lightly. You have never tasted the feeling of starvation. I would rather choke to death than starve to death!"
Su Xingran pouted, glanced at Chen Xiaomu, and said coquettishly: "I just asked you to guess who cooked this table of food. Who knew you were so impatient!"
A quote from a later writer suddenly came to Chen Xiaomu's mind, and he laughed: "If you eat an egg and find it delicious, why bother getting to know the hen that laid the egg?"
As soon as Chen Xiaomu finished speaking, he heard a familiar voice behind him shouting to him: "Teacher."
Chen Xiaomu's heart skipped a beat, and he thought to himself: "Oh no, I've caused trouble again with my bad mouth!" He quickly turned around and saw Wei Yushang holding a large plate of KFC that he taught her to make in the restaurant yesterday. Golden Chicken Nuggets stood at the door with a red face but a dilemma.
Chen Xiaomu knew that in this ancient feudal society, if he were an ordinary person, he would compare the prime minister's daughter to a chicken that lays eggs. Although it can be defended as an unintentional remark, if he believed it to be true, he would probably not It’s enough to last me a few years in the classroom!
In the blink of an eye, Chen Xiaomu immediately made up his mind to pretend that he had never said this. He could not explain it, and the more he explained, the more confused he became. Chen Xiaomu suddenly put on a smile, pretended to be surprised, and said in amazement: " Yu Shang, when did you come?"
Before Wei Yushang could say anything, Su Xingran said in a provocative and fearless tone: "Husband, this is your fault! Miss Wei came here specially to cook so many delicious dishes for you today, and you are still talking nonsense about others behind their backs! "
Su Xingran's words made Chen Xiaomu's teeth itch with hatred, but he couldn't deal with it for a moment, and the atmosphere became tense. Fortunately, the female officer named Furong hurried in at this time, and breathlessly said to Su Xingran: "Princess, hurry up , Hurry, the emperor is here, princess, please hurry up and pick him up!"
"Why did your father come suddenly, and didn't even say hello in advance?" Su Xingran was stunned for a moment, and immediately began to panic. He didn't care about being jealous of Wei Yushang anymore, picked up her skirt and ran out of the house. Chen Xiaomu was left with this Chance quickly stepped forward and took the tray from Wei Yushang's hand, and whispered: "Yushang, don't take it to heart, I didn't expect it to be your cooking!"
Wei Yushang blushed and nodded lightly. Chen Xiaomu breathed a sigh of relief and suddenly thought that Su Xingran's father suddenly came to the princess mansion most likely because he was with Wei Wen in the court that morning. The concept is related. It seems that after hearing Wei Wen's report, he rushed to see what was going on.
Thinking of this, Chen Xiaomu began to panic. He regretted that he had made a mystery in front of Wei Wen in the morning and made these people curious. Now he doesn't know how to explain this so-called thing to these stupid ancients. Concept is not a physical treasure, but just an abstract rational term.
Before he could think of a countermeasure, Su Chengxuan walked into the courtyard in casual clothes, accompanied by Su Xingran, followed by Wei Wen, Dai Jun, and Lu Qian, three big shots in the court. Seeing this, Chen Xiaomu hurriedly greeted him. Just as he was about to bend down to salute Su Chengxuan, Su Chengxuan stopped and waved his hands and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, you don't need to be polite at home. My father came here today mainly to see what you brought from Chen Kingdom. baby!"
Although Chen Xiaomu's mind went blank when he thought that Su Chengxuan came here for this matter, he immediately reacted and whispered: "Father, I'd better go into the room and talk to you in detail, how about that?"
Su Chengxuan nodded and said casually: "Okay, let's go inside first!"
When Su Xingran heard this, she quietly glared at Chen Xiaomu. Just because her father was present, she couldn't say anything. When everyone entered the room one by one, the smell of the food on the table immediately attracted everyone's attention. It turned out that these people had not yet arrived in the palace. After lunch, when I saw the delicious food on the table full of aroma, my stomach couldn't help but growl.
Several people gathered around Su Chengxuan and sat down at the top of the table. Su Xingran called some maids and were about to take the food off the table. Su Chengxuan was not happy at first sight! He glared and immediately stopped him: "Ran'er, it's taken so long for my father to come to your princess's house. Why don't you even give me a meal?"
When Wei Wen and others heard this, they all nodded their heads like chickens pecking at rice and said in unison: "That's right, that's right, the emperor doesn't grow up, he's just a meal." In fact, these three people were already hungry. Wei Wen was so dizzy that as soon as Wei Wen entered the imperial study, he mentioned that Chen Xiaomu had a treasure worth more than three million taels called Concept, which immediately aroused Su Chengxuan's interest and immediately dragged a few people to Princess Qingfeng's mansion. I was looking at the so-called treasures, otherwise I would have asked the emperor in the palace to ask the imperial kitchen to get some royal dining mats to cushion my stomach.
Su Xingran was dumbfounded by the singing and singing, so she had no choice but to explain: "Father, it's not that I don't want to let you eat, it's just that these meals have been touched by my husband's chopsticks, and it's not appropriate for you to eat anymore. I'll tell the kitchen right now Make another table and send it over!”
"It's okay." Su Chengxuan quickly waved his hand and said: "I think back then, we were hungry and full in Tianquan County. We can eat these dishes, so don't waste it!"
Now that his father had said so, Su Xingran stopped insisting and asked people to change the bowls and chopsticks. Su Chengxuan and others were not polite, they gave in to each other, and started to eat. Wei Wen saw that Wei Yu had just Shang brought the KFC Golden Chicken Nuggets and hurriedly introduced it to Su Chengxuan: "Your Majesty, eat this. What is it called KFC Golden Chicken Nuggets? The Sixth Prince invented this! It's delicious!"
"Oh!" Su Chengxuan said with surprise on his face: "Your Majesty, you can actually cook?" He picked up a piece with chopsticks and put it in his mouth. He nodded while eating: "Well, well, that's good. Eat it, it’s much more delicious than the chicken made by my royal chefs!”
"Father, if it's delicious, come to the princess's house often. I'll ask my husband to cook it for you." Su Xingran said happily.
Su Chengxuan put down his chopsticks, took the shark handkerchief handed over by the maid, wiped his mouth, and said angrily: "Father is busy with government affairs all day long, can't you always go back to the palace to see your father and queen? As far as I know , since Huadu came back, you have only returned to the palace twice, and I have only seen you once!"
Su Xingran lay on Su Chengxuan's shoulders like a baby, and said with a smile: "Father, I am afraid that you are busy with affairs in the court, so I don't dare to disturb you."
"You are really my good daughter. You don't go to the palace to see your father and yet you still speak plausibly as if it's reasonable!" Su Chengxuan lovingly tapped Su Xingran's forehead with his finger.
Wei Wen, who was sitting next to Su Chengxuan, felt more and more strange as he ate. After holding it in for a while, he finally couldn't hold it in anymore. He raised his head and asked Su Xingran with a suspicious look on his face: "Excuse me, princess, where did you hire the cook for your princess mansion?" of?"
Su Xingran asked knowingly and smiled mischievously at him: "Prime Minister Wei, take a guess?"
Wei Wen shook his head and said, "Princess, I couldn't guess this, but the taste of this dish is so familiar!"
At this time, Chen Xiaomu, who was sitting down and engrossed in his meal, couldn't help but laugh and said: "Master Shoufu, this is your daughter Yu Shang's cooking skills!"
Wei Wen said in a daze: "My daughter's cooking skills!"
Chen Xiaomu smiled and waved to Wei Yushang, who was hiding his mouth and snickering among several maids, and shouted: "Yushang, stop being naughty, I haven't come over to meet the emperor and your father, the chief minister."
