The three countries are very nuclear

Chapter 589 I'll Eat It For You

The Xun brothers are very busy recently, really busy.

Ever since they were duped by Lin Chao at the gate of the city in full view, the Xun brothers have been targeted by those aristocratic families. Except for being on duty to deal with government affairs every day, they can be more leisurely, and the rest of the time they have to face Endless harassment.

Lin Chao personally announced the news that the inner government would add new members, and claimed that it was Liu Bei's intention. Now the aristocratic families from other places are completely crazy.

Living in this world, as a child of a family who has read poetry and books, seeking fame and power is not enough.

Opportunities are rare now, and the person in charge of the assessment and selection is still a member of a family like them, why don't you hurry up and kneel down?

Therefore, after the Xun brothers came home from duty these days, they could always see the hustle and bustle at the door.

These are people who came to visit, and their enthusiasm has almost broken through Er Xun's house.

So Er Xun hardly ate at home these days, and was invited to drink just after get off work.

For this, Xun Yu was naturally very troubled.

I was already tired enough to go to work, but I had to face the harassment of these people when I went home, so I couldn't get any rest at all.

After a few days, it has become a panda.

There is no way to go on like this, so Xun Yu wanted to discuss with his younger brother Xun Chen to see how to solve the current predicament.

Unexpectedly, Xun Chen, who always respected his elder brother, chose to ignore Xun Yu this time.

Second brother, who dragged me into the water back then?
You won't lose your memory!
Xun Yu knew he was in the wrong, so he didn't dare to tangle with Xun Chen. After much deliberation, he decided to ask Lin Chao for help.

Of course, he would not say that he came to ask for help, but in the name of reporting work.

Zichu, you see that you have been back for a few days, should you go to deal with government affairs?

If you don't want to go to work, do you, then give someone a trick, otherwise someone will release Tian Feng and Cui Yan to bite you.

Although Xun Yu had a good idea, it was a pity that Lin Chao didn't accept the offer at all, and even directly ordered the servants to say that he was not there, which shut Xun Yu away.

So what exactly is Lin Chao doing at this time?

The answer is to keep busy in the kitchen at home.

After returning home for several days, Lin Chao devoted himself to the warm requests from his wives and concubines.

The first night was in Xun Cai's room, the second night was in Zhen Jiang's room, and the third night was in Wang Yuan's room.

On the fourth night, Lin Chao came to the back house, looked at the unextinguished candle in the door of Mrs. Chen's room, lingered for a long while, but finally didn't have the courage to open the door and enter...

Although Xun Cai had hinted earlier, Lin Chao had a guilty conscience after all, and his overwhelmed waist finally gave up, and returned to Xun Cai's room.

It's just that that night, Xun Cai looked at Lin Chao with something obviously wrong.

On the second day, while taking Lin Chao's pulse, Hua Tuo shook his head and sighed, "Changshi, you are the prime minister of a state, so you have to take care of your health... There are some things that you can't show off after all, otherwise..."

Before he could finish speaking, Xun Cai next to him covered his mouth and laughed, his cheeks were as bright as peach blossoms.

But Lin Changshi couldn't be in the mood to appreciate his charming wife's charm at this time, he just wanted to tear Hua Tuo's mouth.

"Mr. Hua, can we... keep our voice down?"

Huayuanhua, you can be a human being!

Can this kind of thing be said openly?
What a disgrace!

Unexpectedly, Hua Tuo was very shameless, and sneered directly: "Chang Shi Mingjian, although the words of the officials are not good, but they are telling the truth. If Chang Shi does not restrain himself, he will not even think about having children in this life!"

Hearing Hua Tuo's frightening words, Lin Chao still hesitated: "Mr. Hua, I know I'm wrong!"

Okay, you are awesome, you are right, I am not obedient!

Immediately, Hua Tuo prescribed some medicines for Lin Chao to take on time.

But the fact that heirs are so important, even frightened Xun Cai, so in the next few days, no matter how much Lin Chao asked, Xun Cai didn't let Lin Chao touch him again.

Not only that, but also strictly ordered Zhen Jiang, Wang Yuan, and the Chen family not to serve Lin Chao, so angry that Lin Chao almost asked his uncle Xun Yu to return the goods.

However, considering Xun Chen's combat effectiveness, Lin Chao finally suppressed his impulse.

The interesting thing right now is impossible to do, so Lin Chao figured out a new way to play.

Since the test of steamed bun mooncakes failed to meet his expectations last time, Lin Chao ignored the dissuasion of everyone in the family and went straight into the kitchen, trying to come up with new tricks.

There is a saying that a gentleman stays away from the kitchen, but Lin Chao didn't realize this at all, not only got into the kitchen by himself, but also called the three wives and concubines and the Chen family over.

The four women looked at each other in blank dismay, not knowing what Lin Chao's intention was.

Lin Chao was kneading the flour in his hands, and with a shy smile on his face, he said, "Next, my husband will use his lifelong skills to cook a delicacy for you, so you have to watch it carefully!"

Hearing this, the four girls' eyes widened immediately, and they waited and watched motionlessly, wanting to see what kind of food even Lin Chao was full of praise for.

At this time, Xun Yu was shut down outside the gate of the mansion. When he was depressed, he suddenly saw two ox carts approaching from a distance.

The leaders are brothers Zhen Yan and Zhen Yao.

It has to be said that the Zhen family is arrogant, and they visited Lin Chao today, but they brought two carts full of gifts.

After the two brothers saw Xun Yu, they hurried all the way to salute and said, "I've seen Xun Changshi!"

Zhen Yan worked as the [-]th in Xuzhou and was also the prime minister of industry and commerce. Although his official position was not inferior to Xun Yu's, his power was quite different.

Xun Yu smiled politely and said, "So it's Zhen Fu Cheng, where are you two from?"

Zhen Yan said with a smile, "I dare not hide it, but today I was summoned by Chang Shi."

As soon as this remark came out, Xun Yu's expression changed on the spot.

Just when the Zhen family brothers were puzzled, Xun Yu turned around and was about to rush into the Lin residence.

"Lin Zichu, you still say that you are not at home, you are deceiving people too much! If you don't give a certain explanation today, you will definitely not have anything to do with you!"

Next, Zhen Yao whispered: "Brother, what happened to Xun Changshi today, why is he so mad..."

Before Zhen Yao finished speaking, Zhen Yan glared at him.

"Shut up, the matter between Xun Changshi and Lin's elder brother is something you and I can speculate on our own!"

Zhen Yan scolded in a low voice.

At this time, Lin Chao had achieved gratifying results in the kitchen.

Lin Chao, the head of the family, cooked the kitchen himself, and the women did not dare to be idle, and they all joined in the fun to help.

It's a pity that these women have been pampered and respected since they were young. They belong to the kind of ladies who don't touch the spring water. How can they do such rough jobs, but the more they help, the more they help.

Wang Yuan was squatting under the stove and burning the fire. Her originally delicate face was now smeared black. When she saw Lin Chao knead the dough into strips and put them in the pot for cooking, her big Kazilan eyes were filled with tears. doubts.

Suddenly, bursts of fragrance wafted out of the pot.

The cooking process of the noodles is very short, because these are the noodles rolled out by Lin Chao by hand. If they are cooked for a long time, they tend to become mushy, and the taste will be hard to describe.

So when the aroma came out from the pot, Lin Chao fished out the noodles.

Looking at the bowl of noodle soup in Lin Chao's hand, the four girls couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

Is this soup... or soup...

Lin Chao picked up a few with a smile and handed them to Xun Cai's mouth.

"Come, try..."

This move immediately made Xun Cai blush, and also successfully attracted the attention of the other three women.

While shy, Xun Cai suddenly felt that Lin Chao was so pleasing to the eye today, and his demeanor was so gentle, and at the same time his heart trembled, he couldn't help but open his mouth and take a bite.

Lin Chao asked, "Are you familiar?"

"Yeah." Xun Cai nodded, blushing and said, "My husband makes beautiful things with his own hands, so they are naturally delicious."

Lin Chao raised his eyebrows, and said strangely, "Nv Xun, I asked you if you are familiar."

Xun Cai nodded again and said, "It's done."

"That's good."

Only then did Lin Chao feel relieved, and he was not polite immediately, and began to feast on it in front of the four girls.

In just a few dozen breaths, Lin Chao wiped out the noodles in the bowl, and even drank the soup in one gulp, leaving the four girls in a daze.

After putting down the bowl, Lin Chao experienced an unprecedented sense of satisfaction.

After so many years, I finally tasted noodles again!

Xun Cai next to him stared wide-eyed, looked at Lin Chao with a satisfied face, and looked at the clean bottom of the bowl, recalling what Lin Chao said just now, and suddenly felt angry from his heart!
Lin Zichu, you just thought of me as a guinea pig, didn't you?
At the same time as his chest heaved violently, Xun Cai's face turned even redder, but he stretched out his slender hands calmly...

But at this time, Lin Changshi still didn't realize the danger was approaching, but he noticed the expressions on the faces of the four girls, and couldn't help shrugging his shoulders: "You are watching what a certain is doing, if you want to eat yourself... ah!"

Before he finished speaking, Lin Chao let out a scream.

Xun Cai said with a smile that was not a smile: "My husband just said something, but I didn't hear clearly."

Lin Chao finally came to his senses, forced back the pain in his waist and apologized with a smile: "Ma'am... I know I was wrong... I also ask Madam to raise your hand, and forgive Chao this time..."

"It's not enough to just know your mistakes, you have to correct them. As the prime minister of a state, my husband doesn't need to teach you this truth."

Lin Chao nodded like a chicken pecking rice and said, "Yes, yes, Madam is right, change Chao immediately."

A quarter of an hour later, Lin Chao turned himself into a cook, and put four bowls of noodles on the four women's table with his own hands, and finally said to Xun Cai with a flattering smile, "Madam, please use it."

Only then did Xun Cai calm down, picked up his chopsticks and started eating.

Just at this time, Uncle Fu came in and said to Lin Chao, "Patriarch, the two gentlemen of the Zhen family are here."

Hearing this, Zhen Jiang who was eating noodles next to her immediately put down her chopsticks.

Lin Chao smiled and said, "Uncle Fu, please come in the two of them, they are all from our own family, so you don't have to go out to greet Jiang Er."

"only!"

Uncle Fu agreed, but still looked embarrassed.

"What, is there something else?"

Uncle Fu smiled wryly and said, "This... Patriarch, Xun Changshi is still outside the door and refuses to leave."

"Uncle Fu, didn't someone tell you to tell the servants that someone is not at home?"

Uncle Fu said helplessly: "Of course, this old slave obeys your orders, but Xun Changshi just refuses to leave."

Lin Chao was also helpless, and sighed: "Wen Ruo is so mother-in-law today, she looks like a woman..."

As soon as the words were finished, Xun Cai stood up, and said with a gloomy expression, "Husband, but why does being a concubine make your husband unhappy?"

Hearing this, Lin Chao murmured in his heart that something was wrong, thinking how could he have forgotten that Xun Yu was still his eldest brother-in-law.

Lin Chao could only smile and comfort him, "Where is Nu Xun talking?"

"The concubine's elder brother came to visit, why didn't the husband refuse to see him?"

Lin Chao: ...

"Okay, let's all come in together."

Seeing Lin Chao's helpless look, Uncle Fu also laughed, and clasped his hands in response, "Wei!"

After a while, the three walked in.

Of course Xun Yu was not really angry, his self-cultivation is not so bad, but this attitude still needs to be shown, otherwise he will not see Lin Chao, and he will have to face the harassment of those family officials when he returns.

However, when the three saw Lin Chao, before they had time to salute, they were stopped by Lin Chao with a wave.

"Let's go and sit inside first, I'll give you something to eat below."

Lin Chao said, and walked into the kitchen again.

After a while, several bowls of hot noodles were brought up.

After eating the delicacies made by Lin Chao himself, the last trace of anger in Xun Yu's heart disappeared, but the Zhen brothers were a little overwhelmed by flattery, and even fidgeted.

The four girls wanted to evade, but were stopped by Lin Chao.

The whole family eats a light meal together, not even a family banquet, so naturally there is no need for so many complicated etiquettes.

After the meal, Lin Chao smiled at Xun Cai, "Nv Xun, I still have some things to do as a husband. Just take the three of them to the back house to change clothes. Later, we will go visit the teacher outside the city together."

Hearing this, Xun Cai nodded, and gave Xun Yu a little blessing, and retreated with the three girls.

After dismissing the group of women, Lin Chao turned his attention to Xun Yu.

"Wen Ruo, why are you doing this?"

Xun Yu shook his head and smiled, "It's not bitter at all. Zichu, you left all this mess to someone, but someone has no clue, so naturally you want to ask for advice."

Hearing this, Lin Chao understood Xun Yu's intention for coming.

When adding members to the Inner Palace, what should be the method of addition, how many additions are appropriate, and whether the newly added people have the same power as the original members of the Inner Palace, or how many should be eliminated.

For these detailed questions, Liu Bei and Lin Chao didn't give a framework, so Xun Yu couldn't implement them.

Lin Chao originally thought of adding some people, squeezed out money and food to help the people, and then kicked out a large number of people, but he did not expect that Xun Yu actually planned to deal with this matter seriously.

Forget it, then take this opportunity to change the system.

Now that Xuzhou's power has suddenly expanded, the original system is no longer applicable, and when everything is not a foregone conclusion, it is also the best time to reform.

While Lin Chao was thinking, Uncle Fu had ordered his servants to bring tea.

Looking at the steam rising from the cup, Lin Chao suddenly smiled.

"Since it's Wen Ruo, if you come to ask, then I will tell you my opinion." Lin Chao laughed, "Originally, Duke Xuande's subordinates only belong to Xuzhou, and the four of you in the inner palace are enough to govern everything.

But now our territory has become the land of three states, and Qingzhou is about to be included, so your inner government is a bit stretched in the hands of people.Therefore, the addition of members this time is not specifically to deal with the aristocratic family. "

Xun Yu could not help but mutter in his heart when he heard Lin Chao talking about your inner palace, but he completely took himself out.

He, Lin Zichu, probably doesn't plan to join the government to participate in politics!
Such a lazy person is really rare in ancient and modern times!
