Zi Yuan sighed and slowly rubbed Zhao Xuanyi's belly, "How are you? Did you hurt your ribs?" After Zi Yuan briefly checked, fortunately, there were no internal injuries, just flesh injuries!
After a while, Zhao Xuanyi finally recovered. After putting on his clothes, Zhao Xuanyi remembered that there was another little ancestor who was angry, "I'm going to see Xin Yu!"
"Okay!" Zi Yuan nodded. After all, the news that Zhao Xuanyi and Meng Yingying were together was brought back by Du Xinyu!
Zhao Xuanyi came to his room. After opening the door, he did not see Du Xinyu. Zhao Xuanyi sighed. Only then did he realize that sometimes too many women are really troublesome! You can't be like Ziyuan and be reasonable. Meng Yingying is beautiful, but no matter how beautiful she is, she doesn't dare to touch her. She doesn't believe in herself at all!
Zhao Xuanyi came to Du Xinyu's room and knocked on the door gently. He didn't answer the door. Zhao Xuanyi opened the door directly and saw Du Xinyu sitting on a chair with a whole plate of lychees in front of him, eating slowly. Looking at the lychee shells as high as a hill lying next to them, I knew that this guy didn’t even need to eat at night!
"Hey, where are you eating some fruit?"
"Hey, are you done with your tryst with the beauty?" Du Xinyu said calmly.
Zhao Xuanyi came over with a smile. As soon as he sat down, Du Xinyu stood up immediately, as if to distance himself from Zhao Xuanyi. Zhao Xuanyi grabbed Du Xinyu and held him in his arms.
"What are you making a fuss about? I have you and Zi Yuan, how can I still fall in love with that Meng Yingying?"
"Forget it! I think you're almost drooling!"
"You're not blind. Is there affection in the way I look at her? Is it different from the way I looked at you in the first place? That guy is clearly an enemy sent here. I don't want to die, so how can I have anything to do with her?"
"The devil knows!" Du Xinyu didn't believe Zhao Xuanyi's words at all!
Zhao Xuanyi sighed, "Otherwise, starting from tomorrow, I won't go to the restaurant, right? Anyway, it doesn't matter whether or not I'm in the restaurant now, the chef has been trained, and everything is on track. If you like it, we'll be there We play at home, or if we go out to play, she can’t find me in the restaurant, don’t you worry?”
Du Xinyu turned around and looked at Zhao Xuanyi with disdain, "Are you serious?"
"What's so deceptive about this? What if I don't go?" Zhao Xuanyi said.
"Hmph! This is the last time. If you dare to do it again, I won't forgive you!"
"How little confidence do you have in yourself?"
"I have no confidence in you!"
Zhao Xuanyi looked at Du Xinyu speechlessly. Could it be that he was really carefree in their eyes? How long has it been since you went to a brothel? Zhao Xuanyi picked up Du Xinyu and said, "Come on, let's train the newcomers today so that you can get out of bed tomorrow. I lose!" After Zhao Xuanyi finished speaking, he carried Du Xinyu and walked to the bed room!
Du Xinyu blushed and smiled, "Okay, let's see who begs for mercy first today!"
A few days later, in the uncle's house in the capital, Ye Yuanzhi's family of three, plus Nangong Shuo, were sitting in the study. Nangong Shuo picked up the tea cup, "General Ye, not long after, it will be August 15th, the Mid-Autumn Festival. What a good time! "
"What does Mr. Nangong mean?" Ye Yuanzhi asked.
"The general can ask Concubine Yongning to take the fifth prince out of the palace in the name of praying for blessings. Then he only needs to escort him all the way to a safe place, and then the general's important affairs can begin!" Nangong Shuo said with a smile.
After hearing this, Ye Yaoming frowned slightly: "Father, there is no war in the country now. Is it really a good time to raise troops now?"
Ye Yuanzhi sighed, "If we talk about timing, what good time is there? But now is the year of great disaster and the imperial treasury is empty. It is considered a good time. By then, as long as the Far East and the frontier are restrained by the enemy and unable to return aid, the country will be in trouble. As long as our family is strong, great things can be accomplished!”
"But father, don't forget, there are three princes! Although they appear to be carefree, each of them has raised a lot of private soldiers. If they unite, they will be a big force!" Ye Yaoming said .
"Hahaha!" Nangong Shuo laughed after hearing this. "The second young master is worrying too much. Will these three princes unite? I'm afraid it won't be possible even if the Ming Dynasty is destroyed, and none of them have a close relationship with the emperor. If they really put their If the private soldiers reveal themselves, I'm afraid it will only cause more trouble for themselves!"
Ye Yaoming understood what Nangong Shuo meant. Hoarding private soldiers was a serious crime of beheading. Naturally, he couldn't tell the world. Otherwise, even if he saved the driver, it would be overkill!
"But...?" Ye Yaoming always felt that this was too hasty!
Ye Yuanzhi waved his hand, "No need to talk anymore. I'll go to Kilometers later to send a message and bring your aunt and your cousin out. As long as they are safe, our family will have nothing to fear!"
Seeing his father's decision, Ye Yaoming could only nod his head and agree, "Yes!"
In Mingyue Palace, Nanzhu came to Zhu Yuejun's side and said, "Eldest Princess!"
Zhu Yuejun put down the fold in his hand, gently rubbed his temples and said, "Say!"
"Yuewei just sent information from Hangzhou, saying that the business of Zhao Xuanyi's restaurant has been as good as ever recently, and that King Yong'an went to Zhao Xuanyi's restaurant for dinner not long ago. I don't know what they talked about!"
"Hmph! King Yong'an finally couldn't sit still? He actually took action after half a year. This old guy can endure it better than I thought!" Zhu Yuejun said.
"Also, recently, King Yong'an's adopted daughter Meng Yingying usually goes to Zhao Xuanyi's restaurant for dinner every two or three days, and the behavior of the two of them seems to be a little...too close!"
Zhu Yuejun slapped the table, with obvious displeasure on his face, "Is this Zhao Xuanyi sick? Aren't there enough women around him? He touches everyone's women? This is obviously a honey trap, can't he see it?"
Nan Zhu twitched the corner of his mouth, "I'm afraid that Zhao Xuanyi will fall into the trap even though he knows it!"
"Can he be so stupid? He really let me down and taught him so many years in vain!"
"But I can't stand this Meng Yingying is so beautiful!"
"Beautiful? How beautiful can it be?"
"The Moon Guard sent a portrait. It's not inferior to Zi Yuan or Du Xinyu, and it can confront Tang Rou head-on!"
Zhu Yuejun blinked, "How can he actually be so capable? This King Yong'an is really spending a lot of money!"
"By the way, the news just came from my own people in the palace, saying that Uncle Guo sent someone to send a message to Concubine Yongning, asking her to go to Henan Shaolin Temple to pray for the emperor during the Mid-Autumn Festival!" Nan Zhu said in a low voice.
"Where? There is Dali Temple in the capital, and there is Bodhi Temple outside the capital. Which one can't pray for blessings? It has to go so far out of the capital? Why do you feel that something is wrong?" Zhu Yuejun frowned and said.
"My maid thinks so too. It feels like Uncle Guo wants to send Concubine Yongning away!"
"It's not about thinking, it's just that Ye Yuanzhi can't sit still and plans to raise an army in the name of Zhu Xinhao?" Zhu Yuejun said with a frown.
Nan Zhu's face turned pale with fright, "Does Uncle Guo really have such a plan? Princess, shall we report it to the emperor immediately?"
"There is no evidence. If you say it, wouldn't it be a warning? Immediately go ahead and say that the Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching. In order to ensure that everyone in the palace can receive the blessing of the ancestors, no one is allowed to leave the palace. If anyone dares to ruin the reunion and protection of the ancestors, Immediate execution without mercy!" Li Hanyan shouted loudly.
"Yes!" Nanzhu nodded and said.
Zhu Yuejun sneered, "Without Zhu Xinhao, I wonder what kind of waves you can make?"
One day later, Ye Yuanzhi got the news from the palace and was so angry that he kicked the chair away. "You bastard Zhu Yuejun, you actually did this to me? You won't let him go, right?"
Nangong Shuo smiled and came to Ye Yuanzhi's side, "General, don't be angry, it's just a delay in time. She can prevent it for a while, but she can't prevent it for ten or eight years! We just have more time to prepare!" "
Ye Yaoming also came over, "Father, sir, you are right, and if we want to attack the capital, we still have a huge trouble to deal with!"
"What do you mean by this?" Ye Yuanzhi asked.
"There are still 20,000 Qilin Guards in the barracks five miles outside the capital. If we don't get rid of them, it will not be that simple for our Huhao Barracks to take over the capital. This time the army failed, it just gave us time. Deal with this matter! We can do it slowly!" Ye Yaoming said.
Ye Yuanzhi took a deep breath and slowly sat on the chair, "Yao Ming, I leave the matter of the Qilin Guards to you. Before we raise the army, we must deal with this group of Qilin Guards. We cannot let them become a stumbling block for us!"
"Yes! Don't worry, father, I will do my best to deal with them!" After Ye Yaoming finished speaking, he sighed and finally stopped acting impulsively, otherwise he would not be able to imagine the consequences!
The business at Zhao Xuanyi's side is still booming. Ever since he found out that Meng Yingying came to the restaurant every now and then, Zhao Xuanyi has been surrounded by several women at home. He can go out to play, play at home, and even go to the fields to look at vegetables, but he can't go to the restaurant. Fortunately, everything is normal in the restaurant!
Zhao Xuanyi came to the field that day and saw Gu Kaiyuan checking all the vegetables. Gu Kaiyuan was more concerned about these vegetables than anything else. He was busy in the field every day and treated these vegetables like children!
Zhao Xuanyi came to Gu Kaiyuan's side and asked, "How's it going?"
Gu Kaiyuan slowly stood up, "Continue to supply ingredients to the restaurant. It will take up to a month and a half to collect them all, otherwise they will rot in the ground!"
"Don't worry, they won't rot. I have a way to take care of them all and keep them for many years!" Zhao Xuanyi said with a smile.
"You mean dehydrated? I've seen the potatoes made by the young master are dry, they are really good!"
"There is enough sunshine now, so you just need to dry it after processing. If it is in other seasons, you will have to prepare for charcoal grilling! After the peppers turn red, they will be dried into dried peppers. When the time comes, they will be used to make chili oil. It will be very delicious!" Every time Zhao Xuanyi hears the red oil chili pepper, he misses it very much!
Gu Kaiyuan smiled, "I really didn't know that Mr. Zhao is so knowledgeable about food!"
"It's necessary! By the way, the restaurant business has been good recently. As we agreed before, I have prepared two hundred taels of silver. You can go to Brother Shen to collect it when you get home later!"
"So many?" Gu Kaiyuan asked in surprise.
"You won it!" Zhao Xuanyi patted Gu Kaiyuan on the shoulder and said.
Gu Kaiyuan clasped his hands in his fists, "I have thanked you young master. I will go to the Western Regions again next year to see what new varieties can be introduced! Then we will open up planting and make Daming a country rich in delicious food!"
"I support you. Just be responsible for the seeds. If I buy more fields, I will give you my full support!" Zhao Xuanyi said.
"Young Master, you are truly the most open-minded person I have ever seen in my life! Far more open-minded than those so-called grandfathers and gentlemen!"
"What's the point of being pedantic? Let's not talk about them. By the way, I still remember that there are many kinds of fruits in the Western Regions. When you go, see if you can bring back some seeds. If you can bring back saplings, even better! "Zhao Xuanyi said.
"I know too, let's just...!" The two people sat on the field and kept chatting about planting-related matters. As they discussed, they realized that they had met each other so late that they had many similarities. topic!
It was strange for the farmers working nearby to see these two people chatting in the fields under the bright sun. However, these two people were a match for each other and would meet a good talent. They chatted from morning to evening!
The sun was about to go down, so the two of them got up, got on the carriage and walked home. Gu Kaiyuan clasped his fists at Zhao Xuanyi, "Listening to your words is better than three years of studying! If I had met the young master a few years ago, I would definitely know With the introduction of many things from the Western Region, we won’t be in such a dilemma now!”
Zhao Xuanyi smiled and said nothing, thinking that it would be useless for you to find me three years in advance. I had not yet traveled through time at that time!
The carriage arrived at home. As soon as he got off the carriage, Zhao Xuanyi was attracted by a familiar shadow. Zhao Xuanyi thought he had seen it wrong and rubbed his eyes. That's right. How did this white jade carriage come to my house?
I looked to the side, what the fuck? I saw that the palace guards in yellow jackets were surrounding the outside of my home. There were probably thousands of them at least. I read it right. Zhu Yuejun must be here, otherwise how could there be such a big scene? What the hell is going on?
Zhao Xuanyi didn't think about anything else. He jumped up, turned around and rushed into the carriage. Just as Gu Kaiyuan was about to get out of the car, he saw Zhao Xuanyi rushing into the carriage in a panic. Gu Kaiyuan was startled and asked hurriedly, "Young Master, what happened?" What happened?"
"Hurry up! Trouble is coming! Hurry up, hurry up!" Zhao Xuanyi shouted loudly, thinking, is Zhu Yuejun sick? I've already run here, but I'm still chasing after you? How shameless is a big girl?
The servant who was driving the carriage didn't know what was going on. He just did whatever the master asked him to do. He raised the riding whip, but before he could shake it, it was caught by a jade hand. Nan Zhu shook his hand hard and the servant who was driving the carriage was caught. A beautiful somersault and fell off the carriage!
Hearing the sound of "Oh my God" outside, Zhao Xuanyi closed his eyes and realized it was over. He didn't run away! Are all these people dead? Why doesn't anyone give me a call? Tell yourself in advance that you won’t go home stupid!
Nan Zhu slowly opened the curtain and looked at Zhao Xuanyi with a smile, "Mr. Zhao, long time no see!"
"Haha, beauty, you got the wrong person. My name is Zhao Xuanli!"
"Really? Isn't your surname also Zhao? Are you going to get off the bus yourself, or should I catch you?" Nan Zhu asked with a smile.
