Chapter 325 The Prince's Opportunity
Chapter 325 The Prince's Opportunity (10000-word chapter)
Prince Li Xiankun has been restless these days.
The royal father favored Huiyan, a demon monk, and believed in the nonsense that the two dragons would not meet.
So much so that I haven't seen him for more than a month.
Li Xiankun already felt a sense of crisis.
Although he is a prince, he can be said to be under one person and above ten thousand people.
But as long as you don't ascend the throne for a day, there are still risks after all.
Li Xiankun didn't want to lose the throne in a muddle-headed way.
Although it seems that there is basically nothing among the kings that can pose a threat to him, but Li Xiankun still feels that he should be more careful.
It is by no means unreasonable to be careful when sailing for thousands of years.
Just when Li Xiankun felt a little restless, news suddenly came from the internal guard, saying that Zheng Jie wanted to see him.
For a moment Li Xiankun became vigilant.
Could it be that the father wants to test him through Zheng Jie?
No, if this is the case, it shouldn't be so direct, Li Xiankun is not stupid.He has been the prince for so many years, and he is still very clear that the prince is not allowed to make friends with powerful officials without permission.
Since it's not here to test him, what does that mean?
Li Xiankun felt a little puzzled.
This incident seems a bit illogical, but it may be possible to see some clues in combination with recent events.
Recently, from the looks of it, Zheng Jie has become much estranged from his father.
Li Xiankun felt that this should not be like a play on the spot.
If it was a play on the spot, it would be too real.
Like Li Xiankun, Zheng Jie probably hasn't entered the palace for a long time.
Relationship is something that depends on maintenance. If you don't get along for a long time, even the best relationship will have cracks.
Li Xiankun believed that Zheng Jie should also be very anxious at this moment.
So this is not what the father meant, but what Zheng Jie meant?
Zheng Jie wants to stabilize his position as a servant and supervisor by making friends with Donggong?
The more Li Xiankun thought about it, the more he felt that this possibility was very high.
Zheng Jie, an old fox, usually doesn't show his tail easily. He must be willing to do so because he knows he can't wait any longer.
Eunuchs are not the same as civilian and military generals.
A foreign minister can achieve a high position, in addition to the grace, his own ability and background are very important.
Courtiers from aristocratic families with strong abilities can easily be promoted and achieve high positions.
But eunuchs can achieve high positions, relying on the emperor.
Because for the emperor and the royal family, they are just a domestic slave.
One word from the emperor can determine his life and death, and can also determine his future.
Although Zheng Jie is very strong and a super master, once he loses his holy favor, he is still a phoenix in trouble.
So it is understandable that he seeks the support of the future emperor, Donggong.
Is it just that Li Xiankun wants to come forward?
It was a question he was hesitant about.
Although Zheng Jie is on the verge of falling into trouble now, his strength is still here.
If Li Xiankun can form an alliance with him, it will be very helpful for his future development.
As long as the two join forces, even if the father wants to make a move, he will have to consider three points.
But one thing is certain, that is, we must not meet too directly.Once it is seized by someone with a heart and used to attack the East Palace, it will be a devastating blow to Li Xiankun and even the princelings.
If you are in a high position, you must be careful and think about it everywhere, and you must not act rashly.
A negligence may lead to irreparable losses.
Li Xiankun was very tangled and hesitant.
The point is that he doesn't even have anyone to discuss this kind of thing.
There are many counselors in the East Palace, but Li Xiankun can even think of the faces of these counselors.
They will definitely persuade Li Xiankun to act cautiously again and again, and refrain from making friends with Zheng Jie, so as not to be caught by the kings and attack him wantonly.
But some things are high risk high reward.
This kind of matter can only be decided by Li Xiankun himself.
When Li Xiankun was anxious, he started to walk in the hall with his hands behind his back.
In his opinion, this is indeed an opportunity. If he seizes it, he may not only stabilize the position of the prince, but also attack the arrogance of the kings.
After all, Zheng Jie has a high position and authority. If Zheng Jie can openly support the East Palace, the hearts of the kings should also be enlightened.
"Forget it, let's take a gamble."
In the end, Li Xiankun decided to make friends with Zheng Jie.
It's dangerous, but as he said, high risk high reward.
The temptation to get Zheng Jie as a supporter was too great, and it was impossible for Li Xiankun to refuse.
Just where should we choose to meet?
This is a very headache.
Donggong definitely can't.
Although the East Palace is nominally independent of Daming Palace, it is actually adjacent to Daming Palace, even separated by a palace wall.
If there is any movement in the East Palace, Daming Palace will definitely respond immediately.
It can be said that every move of the East Palace is under the control of the father.
Zheng Jie's mansion?
This is of course not a wise choice.
In Li Xiankun's view, the mansions of these important ministers in the imperial court have put eyeliner in, the difference lies in the amount of eyeliner.
Sometimes the eyeliner will be in the light, and sometimes the eyeliner will be in the dark.
But there is no doubt that there is no shortage of eyeliner in Zheng Jie's mansion.
Since the East Palace and Zheng Jie's mansion cannot meet, we can only choose a neutral location.
After much deliberation, Li Xiankun felt that Dongshi was a good choice.
First of all, the mansions of Donggong and Zheng Jie are not too far from Dongshi, so it is very appropriate to choose Dongshi to meet in terms of distance.
Secondly, there are many people in Dongshi, which can serve as a good cover.
Even if the crown prince came to a certain restaurant in Dongshi, the kings would not be able to comment.
After Li Xiankun made up his mind, he immediately ordered someone to meet Zheng Jie.
It's not too late for this matter, and the next thing will be much easier if we meet earlier.
"His Royal Highness has agreed to meet with me."
In Zheng Jie's mansion, the slightly old eunuch sighed.
"I would never have come to this point anyway."
Beside him is bad handsome Feng Hao.
Feng Hao comforted Zheng Jie and said: "Duke Zheng, I can understand your feelings. But at this point, this may be the best choice. Your Majesty favors traitors, and even believed the demon monk's nonsense, thinking that the eighth grade of the son of heaven is equal to the realm of the great master." If this is the case, then the emperors of all dynasties can reach the realm of number one in the world with a little practice, so why are there other practitioners?"
Feng Hao felt that this was extremely absurd, but His Majesty the Emperor still believed it.
For a while, Feng Hao only felt that a piece of carp was stuck in his throat, not to mention how uncomfortable it was.
So Feng Hao met Zheng Jie immediately after leaving the palace, and explained the matter to Zheng Jie.
"Duke Zheng, I think we should stop hesitating about this matter. Your Majesty obviously doesn't care about Jiangshan Sheji at all, and all he thinks about is practice. If I say something disrespectful, he doesn't practice at all. Even if you have the aptitude to go against the sky, you will be punished by heaven if you act against the sky."
Originally, Feng Hao was very respectful to Emperor Xianlong, and would never question Emperor Xianlong about anything.
But now even Feng Hao has to think carefully about whether he should consider supporting the new king.
Although the prince is not a person with outstanding talents, at least he will not be worse than the current majesty after he ascends the throne, right?
In the past, although Emperor Xianlong often did not go to court, he still had a good grasp of the government.
But now?Emperor Xianlong's whole mind was on cultivation, he ignored the government and the government, and the military and government were in a mess.
Feng Hao even wondered if it could be worse?
"This matter is of great importance. We must be careful. If the matter is revealed, it will be a serious crime of ransacking our family and exterminating our family. It doesn't matter if our family is alone, but General Feng"
Zheng Jie didn't say any more when he said it here, some things are just as good as they are, and it's meaningless to say too clearly.
"Well, I understand what Zheng Gong means. I will definitely be cautious. There is only one chance for this kind of thing. If you use too much force, it will be counterproductive."
After a short pause, Feng Hao continued: "Duke Zheng, how will His Highness the Crown Prince react? This is beyond our plan. If His Highness the Crown Prince retreats, what should we do?"
Zheng Jie sneered and said, "His Royal Highness retreated? You underestimate our Eastern Palace too much. Although His Royal Highness may eat fast and chant Buddha in the Eastern Palace all day long, in fact he is not idle at all. Nearly half of the court is Princelings, just don't show it."
Feng Hao gasped when he heard this.
Good guy, sure enough, as a prince, he doesn't have a fuel-efficient lamp.
The prince's ability to obtain a reserve position is inseparable from his personal strategic ability besides his background.
"So Zheng Gong, are you sure that the crown prince will have one heart with us?"
"As long as he comes, he has no choice. As long as he sees us, he will be tied to death by us. Because in the eyes of foreign ministers, we have already taken refuge in the Eastern Palace, and the Eastern Palace has also made friends with powerful officials. Your Majesty will know about this kind of thing sooner or later."
Zheng Jie sighed and said, "I only hope that the crown prince can treat His Majesty well after ascending to the Great Treasure, at least to ensure that His Majesty dies well."
Royal power struggles have been ruthless since ancient times.
Zheng Jie is very clear about this.
It is not uncommon for father and son to kill each other and brothers to kill each other.
But after all, Zheng Jie had served Emperor Xianlong for so many years, and he didn't want to see Emperor Xianlong come to this point.
But Zheng Jie had no choice but to support the crown prince, because in Zheng Jie's view, some actions of Emperor Xianlong had touched the bottom line of a king.
A king can be lazy and slack in politics, but he can't be indiscriminate, and he can't help distinguishing loyal ministers from traitors.
In other words, a king must know everything well, and not let other courtiers decide.
Emperor Xianlong really lost himself now.
He had completely lost his judgment, and was fascinated by Master Huiyan, a monstrous monk.
Zheng Jie didn't know what ecstasy soup Master Huiyan poured into Emperor Xianlong.
But judging from the current results, Emperor Xianlong has indeed lost his mind.
It's okay if it's only for a short time, but if it's for a long time, the situation in North Korea will definitely become turbulent.
This is definitely not what Zheng Jie wants to see.
Because of this, the Great Zhou Dynasty was not far from being overthrown.
This is by no means sensational.
The upper beam is not right and the lower beam is crooked.
Even the king of a country does not have the determination and confidence to govern the government, what will the courtiers think?What will the place think?
Zheng Jie only felt that he was under tremendous pressure.
As an internal servant and supervisor, he should naturally shoulder the responsibility of helping the king.
But Emperor Xianlong didn't listen.
Otherwise, how could Zheng Jie go so far as to support the prince.
This is an unavoidable choice and a last resort.
But he can only choose this way.
"Duke Zheng, isn't it too dangerous to meet in Dongshi?"
"It's not dangerous. The East City is extremely noisy. This is the best cover. The most dangerous place is the safest place. You should understand this truth. No one would have thought that the Crown Prince of the East Palace would be in the East City with our two important ministers." meeting."
Feng Hao nodded in satisfaction at Zheng Jie's words and said, "Since that's the case, I'm relieved. Then I will order the bad guys to keep watch outside to prevent people from sneaking into the restaurant."
"Don't grab it, don't grab it, I have made various flavors of milk tea, everyone should try it."
Zhao Xun thought that the milk tea he made would be popular, but he didn't expect it to be so popular.
Good guy, brothers and sisters seem to have opened a brand new door, and it's out of control.
Zhao Xun seems to have underestimated the appetite of the brothers and sisters.It seems that the next time I make milk tea, I have to do a little more.
"Little brother, you have to tell me the secret recipe of your milk tea no matter what. That way we can make it ourselves when you're not around."
"That's right, junior brother. It's better to teach someone to fish than to give him a fish. Since it's milk tea, it's better to drink it all at once. Tell us how to do it, so we can do it ourselves."
"Junior brother, you have to be more generous, don't be so stingy."
"."
Zhao Xun didn't know what to say for a while.
Everything that can be said has been said by the brothers and sisters. After thinking about it carefully, what the brothers and sisters said is quite reasonable.
He chooses to accept it.
It's just that Zhao Xun doesn't intend to release the secret recipe.
He can compromise on other things, but he can't on this one!
"It's actually not that complicated to make milk tea, but I've been crossing the river by feeling the stones so far. So brothers and sisters, don't worry. I will definitely do my best to make milk tea. As for the formula I haven't settled down yet."
Of course, Zhao Xun couldn't say that he didn't want to release the formula, so he could only prevaricate in this way.
I believe that brothers and sisters should be understandable, right?
"Oh, little brother, you are not being kind. We all know that milk tea is your unique skill. But you don't have to guard against us. Didn't you say that we are tired of logging. Since it is If you are a family, you should have the same blessings and share the hardships. Right?"
Third Senior Brother Long Qingquan rolled his eyes and said, "Quickly tell me, what is the secret recipe of this milk tea?"
"."
Zhao Xun knew that the third senior brother, Long Qingquan, would be the first to jump out, so he sighed and said, "To tell you the truth, there is only one secret recipe for the milk tea I made—carefully."
Seeing the stunned looks of his senior brothers and sisters, Zhao Xun felt elated in his heart.
Good guy, I'm even afraid of myself!
"Brothers and sisters, have you ever heard of the spirit of craftsmanship, or the spirit of ingenuity? A carpenter, a bricklayer, and the others may not do so complicated crafts, but they repeat the same process day after day, year after year, They are able to achieve the ultimate in a handicraft and be responsible for everything they make, which is the spirit of craftsman, that is, the spirit of ingenuity."
Zhao Xun said very seriously: "Not everyone can do this. So I think that if you want to make what you make valuable, the most important thing is to put your heart into it."
hiss.
Zhao Xun could hear the gasps of his brothers and sisters, but he didn't care.
Because at this moment Zhao Xun was completely immersed in his own rhythm.
"Keep the spirit of craftsman and ingenuity, and we can make things that satisfy others. The same is true for making milk tea. It seems that this is just a cup of ordinary milk tea. But in fact, it contains too much Things. Because my heart is inside. Brothers and sisters, can you feel Xiao 72's heart?"
Zhao Xun thought to himself that as long as I don't feel embarrassed, it must be someone else.
Want me to hand over the secret recipe of milk tea?Don't even think about it!
"Uh"
Lu Guangdou, the sixth senior brother, was instantly impressed by Zhao Xun.
Although he felt that there was something wrong, Lu Guangdou felt that what the younger brother said made sense.
"So, I have already taught you the secret recipe. Please be careful when making milk tea, because only with your heart can you make good milk tea."
Well.
After some impassioned brainwashing speeches, Zhao Xun only felt that his mouth was parched.
He desperately needs a break right now.
Milk tea is definitely not drinkable, the more you drink it, the thirstier you become.
In Zhao Xun's view, clear spring water is the most suitable.
"Brother Mingyun, brother Mingyun, here I come!"
Zhao Xun was drinking clear spring water when he heard a familiar voice.
Zhao Xun instinctively raised his ears to listen.
Hmm. This voice is really familiar.
Ok?
It seems to be prosperous!
Yes, it is prosperity.
Zhao Xun made another confirmation, and after judging that it was Wangcai, Zhao Xun rushed out too.
Sure enough, as soon as Zhao Xun arrived at the door, he saw a small meat ball rushing towards him carrying a large bag.
Zhao Xun didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "You can come here, why do you bring so many things. Our two brothers are so familiar, so there is no need to be so polite."
Panting, Wangcai ran to Zhao Xun, threw the big and small bags on the ground, then sat down on the ground, and said after a while: "Brother Mingyun, you are wrong. I am not being polite to you. I'm going to live in Zhongnanshan."
"What, you want to move to Zhongnan Mountain?"
Zhao Xun was surprised for a while.
Fatty is serious, right?
"That's right, I'm going to live in Zhongnanshan, is there any problem?"
"Of course there is a problem. You don't live in Chang'an City. Why do you move to Zhongnan Mountain?"
If it was in the past, it would be fine, but now Zhongnanshan can be said to be overcrowded.
The tribes from the Allen Lore mainland flocked to Zhongnan Mountain after they couldn't enter Chang'an City.
At the beginning, Zhao Xun held the attitude of not rejecting anyone who came, but gradually he found that he seemed to be unable to bear it.
So far, only four or five tribes are in contact with the academy, and it is conservatively estimated that half of the tribes have not arrived.
If you wait until all the tribes have arrived, the picture is too beautiful to dare to look at.
At such a time, little fat man Wangcai actually wanted to move to Zhongnanshan, so he asked Zhao Xun to say something.
"Didn't they miss you? Besides, I have resigned now. I can go wherever I want, and no one can control me."
Wangcai's words startled Zhao Xun.
"You resigned? Seriously?"
"Of course, you are allowed to resign, and I am not allowed to resign? To tell you the truth, I have figured it out. The most important thing in a person's life is to make yourself happy. I really can't bear to be in the office of bad people. It's worth the cramped and depressing life. It's okay when you're here, and I can still have someone to chat with, but after you're gone, I'm really lonely."
"Isn't there still Brother Jia?"
"Brother Jia? Brother Jia is like a boring gourd. It's not like you don't know."
Wangcai curled his lips and said, "In the past, when you were here, brother Jia would still say a few words, but now that you are not here, brother Jia has stopped talking at all. I stayed in the morgue just like I was in the office of bad people. It's like staying in the house, but it's suffocating."
This metaphor is worthy of prosperity, it is really amazing.
"So you chose to resign without hesitation?"
Even so, Zhao Xun still felt that Wangcai's resignation was a bit hasty.
Zhao Xun had no choice. After killing King Wei, it was impossible for Zhao Xun to return to the bad man's office. Emperor Xianlong would definitely try his best to kill him.
Zhao Xun can't kill the king yet, so he can only resign.
But Wangcai is different.
Wangcai did not offend the emperor, so his resignation seemed a bit casual and hasty.
But if you think about it carefully, Wangcai is not short of money.
He has such a large family property waiting to be inherited, it seems that he can resign.
Forget it, Wangcai has already resigned, so it doesn't make any sense for Zhao Xun to think about it.
"Since that's the case, then you can live in the academy with peace of mind."
Although a large number of foreign races have poured into Zhongnan Mountain now.However, the space of Haoran Academy is still guaranteed.
Anyway, Wangcai's mouth is not bad, Zhao Xun can't drive Wangcai away.
"By the way, brother Mingyun, where do I live?"
Wangcai stared at Zhao Xun with big blingbling Kazilan eyes.
"It's in the bamboo building over there, living next to me, it should be fine."
Zhao Xun felt a little helpless towards Wang Caizhi.
Who calls them brothers?
"It's really nice, so I can keep pressing."
Wangcai showed his "true face" so quickly, but Zhao Xun was really taken aback.
"Good guy, so you came to the academy to press for manuscripts."
Seeing that he missed the point, Wangcai quickly waved his hands and said, "No, I didn't mean that. The reminder is just incidental, of course I miss you so much."
Zhao Xun's heart is ashamed at this moment.
Alas, it was hard to live a peaceful life for a few days, but Wangcai came to supervise the whole process to remind the manuscript.
This still makes people unable to live. He originally wanted to update Xianyu for a while, but now it seems that if he doesn't explode, it won't work?
That’s all, people are sometimes forced out.
If you don't put pressure on yourself, you will never know how great your potential is.
Zhao Xun gave himself psychological hints again and again, hoping to be strong again.
It's not that he can only update with salty fish, as long as he is under pressure, he can explode and start!
Of course, what to write next is a question.
Liao Zhai is finished, Three Kingdoms is finished, Journey to the West is finished, and Water Margin is also finished.
Are you going to write about the Red Chamber next?
This love and love is greasy and crooked, I am afraid that people in this era will not like it.
Great Zhou Shangwu, roughly similar to the Han and Tang Dynasties.
People in the Han and Tang Dynasties would not like this kind of love and love, greasy and crooked things.
Therefore, Zhao Xun can either choose to write decisive novels, or he can continue to explore the route of ghost novels.
After thinking about it carefully, Zhao Xun felt that Tang Chuanqi could be adapted.
Although the Legend of Tang Dynasty is also a novel in essence, there are still many differences in the specific form of expression from the later Ming and Qing novels.
What Zhao Xun has to do is to set the tone, and then make some local fine-tuning according to the background of Da Zhou.
As long as it is adjusted well, it must be a hit.
In his view, market analysis and market positioning are the most important link.
As long as this link is done well, the rest will not be a problem.
After discussing the topic of the new book with Wangcai, this issue has come to an end for the time being.
Of course, the next link is to feed the little fat man.
It is not easy to do this, because Wangcai is a very gluttonous guy.
This was the case when he was still in the Yamen of bad people. Wangcai was in charge of ordering takeaways and eating most of them.
In the end, Zhao Xun and Jia Xingwen often did not eat as much as Wangcai together.
Of course, Zhao Xun would not complain about anything.After all, Wangcai's body shape is there.
The larger the body and the more flesh, the more energy it consumes.
This is a truth that anyone who studies fitness understands.
So Zhao Xun tolerated Wangcai again and again, even if Wangcai ate part of Zhao Xun's takeaway, Zhao Xun would not say anything.
But now, it's Zhao Xun's turn to cook to feed Wangcai.
This situation is completely different.
Although Zhao Xun has the reputation of being a chef of the Great Zhou, it is not easy to feed a fat man like Wangcai.
Zhao Xun suddenly felt a lot of pressure.
But seeing Wangcai's watery Kazilan's big eyes staring at Zhao Xun all the time, Zhao Xun had no choice but to bite the bullet and cook.
Well, cooking is actually more interesting than practicing.
Since it's cooking, naturally we can't stick to the old and keep doing the old three.
Zhao Xun still wants to take this opportunity to research some new dishes.
Sometimes the study of cooking depends on a rush of motivation just like practicing.
"Make a three-cup cup first, and then pair it with dry noodles. It should be a perfect match."
After Zhao Xun thought about the menu, he began to chop meat.
The recipe of the Three Cup Chicken is actually similar to that of the Big Pan Chicken, so Zhao Xun still knows how to do it.
It's just a little hard to chop the meat.
The kitchen knife in the kitchen of the academy felt that it was not sharp enough, and I always felt a little awkward when chopping his meat.
It seems that Zhao Xun has to find an opportunity to give feedback to Long Qingquan, the third senior brother, and upgrade the kitchen tableware in the future.
There is a saying that if a worker wants to do a good job, he must first sharpen his tools.
If you can't even guarantee the quality of kitchen knives in the kitchen, how can you make dishes that satisfy everyone?
As for dry noodles, it is Zhao Xun's favorite.
Zhao Xun has one advantage, that is, he is not picky about food.
No matter what the dish tastes delicious to him.
There are big dishes for big dishes, and home-cooked dishes for home-cooked dishes, and there is no distinction between them.
Of course, Zhao Xun actually prefers home cooking.
Because in his opinion, home cooking is more smoky.
There is no feeling of superiority, no feeling of domineering, and some are just close to life.
Dry noodles are such a home-cooked dish.
Of course, adding three cups of chicken to the dry noodles would be too dry. Zhao Xun knew that at this time, he still needed a soup to neutralize it.
But what soup to make?
Is it seaweed egg drop soup, tomato egg, or golden emerald soup?
Either way, it's a thirst quencher.
In the end, after some weighing, Zhao Xun chose seaweed egg drop soup.
Because he prefers the taste of seaweed.
If it wasn't for his little brother Wan Yan's son who specially sent someone to deliver the seaweed, I am afraid that this dish would really be hard to come out.
But with the help of this little fan, Zhao Xun can make seaweed and egg drop soup with ease.
Well. Sometimes people still have to push themselves. If you don’t push yourself, you will never know how perfect a dish you can make.
When Zhao Xun took a sip of the freshly made seaweed and egg drop soup, he was moved to tears.
He really never thought that seaweed egg drop soup could be so delicious.
It tastes so delicious even without MSG.
This...is the smell of the sea.
Zhao Xun eagerly wanted to take this pot of seaweed and egg flower soup out to share with his brothers and sisters.Of course, the most important thing is to let Wangcai have a taste.
He must let Wangcai feel his heart.
Wang Cai was able to resign for him and come to Zhongnan Mountain to live permanently, so Zhao Xun naturally had to show some sincerity.
Three cups of chicken, dry noodles, tofu with shallots, cucumber, seaweed and egg drop soup.
Three dishes and one soup plus staple food.
Although the dishes are far from rich, they are definitely enough to eat.
Zhao Xun felt that even a glutton of Wangcai's size would be enough to fill his stomach.
"The food is served, everyone is coming to dinner."
In Zhao Xun's opinion, there must be a sense of ritual in cooking, and there must be a sense of ritual in serving dishes.
This represents the importance he attaches to his work.
Soon the brothers and sisters of the academy and Wangcai rushed towards the bamboo building under Zhao Xun's call.
Seeing Zhao Xun bring plates of delicacies to the table, almost everyone started to salivate.
"Little brother, why are you always able to make so many delicious dishes in different ways? It's really enviable."
"That's right, junior brother, just the smell of this delicacy makes people drool, we really can't bear it anymore."
"Haha, I'm honoring my brothers and sisters."
Zhao Xun stroked his hair very smugly.
In his opinion, this is undoubtedly the most enjoyable moment of the moment.
"Hurry up and eat, if the food is cold, it won't taste good."
Zhao Xun reminded him kindly and thoughtfully.
Wangcai, however, ignored these pleasantries and started to move on his own.
Zhao Xun thought in his heart, what a guy, this kid looks like he hasn't eaten for a few days.
Can't you be reserved and pay attention to your image?
Forget it, Wang Cai seems to have no image to speak of
Then let him go.
"The East Palace is getting restless."
In Qi Wang's mansion, Qi Wang Li Xiang said meaningfully.
Prince Qi's son Li Jianye asked cautiously: "Father, then should we make a move?"
"Don't worry, if we can't catch the real evidence at this time, we can't do anything to that person in the East Palace. Let them meet and have a chat first, and then we will catch a current one. At that time, the prince will be the yellow mud that fell into his crotch. , it’s either shit or shit.”
Qi Wang Li Xiang has been suppressed by the princelings in the past few months.
The biggest reason for this is that he was implicated by Zhao Xun.
Zhao Xun's beheading of King Wei caused an uproar, and then he returned to Beijing to resign and completely broke with the court.
Father must have hated Zhao Xun very much in his heart, and wished he could cut him into pieces, but because of Zhao Xun's teacher, the head of the mountain, he couldn't do it all the time.
The evil fire in Emperor Father's heart had nowhere to go, so it was all scattered on Qi Wang Li Xiang.
As for the wanton attacks by the princelings, Qi Wang Li Xiang is also very clear that there is an element of his father's acquiescence in it.
If there is no acquiescence from the father, even if the princelings are lent ten guts, they would not dare to attack King Qi with such a big name.
But none of that matters now.
Because Li Taiping has disappeared, King Qi has no final scruples.
Otherwise, the princelings can use this as an excuse to attack King Qi.
Now King Qi can completely free up his hands to fight back.
However, the crown prince was so careless at this time that he actually exposed his flaws.
If King Qi didn't seize the opportunity to fight back severely at this moment, he would be sorry for the prince's previous attack.
"Father, Zheng Jie and Feng Hao hosted a banquet for the crown prince at the same time. What are they trying to do? It's not as simple as swearing allegiance?"
"Of course it's not that simple."
For this eldest son, Qi Wang Li Xiang still pays great attention to training.
Whenever he has the opportunity, he will pass on his experience in the court for so many years to him.
While growing up royal, there are some things that come naturally.
But if no one takes it deliberately, it will be difficult to rely on natural growth.
"If the king's guess is correct, they are looking for an opportunity to launch a coup this time to support the crown prince."
When Qi Wang Li Xiang said this, Li Jianye gasped.
"Dare they do that?"
"Why don't you dare? The current situation in the court is chaotic, and the emperor asks that demon monk all day long, ignoring the government affairs. Now is just a good time for them to launch a coup. It depends on whether the prince has the courage."
What Qi Wang Li Xiang said was calm and calm, but to Li Jianye's ears, it was shocking.
If everything is as the father said, then there will be big moves in Chang'an City recently.
"Calm down, it won't be a showdown until the last moment."
Qi Wang Li Xiang said leisurely: "Our East Palace is also patient, he will not show his flaws easily. So we must wait until he can't bear it."
King Qi knew very well that the prince was in a state of struggle.
On the one hand, the prince is under one person and above ten thousand people, and on the other hand, he has to bear great pressure.
One day without being enthroned and practiced, one day cannot face north and back south.
The prince is like an early bird, and countless people want to kill him and replace him.
So it depends on how long the prince can endure.
If the prince can't bear it anymore, it's time for the Qi royal party to show its power.
"Father, do you think His Majesty will know about this matter?"
"The king doesn't know either."
King Qi shook his head and said: "In the past, with Father's character, he would definitely be able to know the movements of the crown prince and the kings like the palm of his hand. But for the past few months, Father has been getting along with that monstrous monk, which has delayed us a lot. So I think he may not be able to clearly understand the connection between the prince and Zheng Jie and Feng Hao. But there are still us, as long as we disclose this matter at the right time, the effect will be achieved. Jianye, remember that you can’t just look at the short-term when doing things, but take a long-term view. The mantis catches the cicada and the oriole is behind, and what we want to do is the oriole.”
"The son obeys the teaching of the father."
Li Jianye rushed to the kingly way very respectfully.
These days he found that he lacked a lot.
The father is indeed very powerful, even if a major event is imminent, he can still hold his breath.
He will be far behind in this point, and needs to learn more from his father. If this trouble occurs, Chang'an City will definitely not be peaceful. By then, it will not only be in our Qi Palace, but other kings will definitely have trouble too. Action is nothing more than the size of the action.Just look at it, at most ten days, there must be a group of demons dancing wildly. "
Qi Wang Li Xiang had some expectations when he said this.
Yes, for a vassal king, if the court has been going smoothly, there is basically no chance.
Only by muddying the waters will he stand a chance.
The muddier the water, the better his chances.
"Shan Chang, try this dry noodles, this three-cup chicken, this shallot mixed with tofu, this cucumber, and this seaweed egg drop soup."
After the brothers and sisters and Wangcai finished eating and left contentedly, Zhao Xun quietly brought a meal prepared in advance to the bamboo building where the head of the mountain was.
"These are disciples honoring you."
"Well, little 72, you have a heart."
The head of the mountain picked up a piece of chicken and chewed it carefully, with a smile of enjoyment on his face.
"This chicken tastes good."
Zhao Xun was ecstatic when he heard this.
Who doesn't know that Shan Chang is a top-level gourmet.
Being able to get high-quality comments from his elders proves that the taste of the three cups of chicken made by Zhao Xun is absolutely top-notch.
If the head of the mountain can speak for him, Zhao Xun will no longer have to worry about the Three Cups of Chicken not being sold.
The brothers are still clear about the accounts, and the brothers and sisters naturally have to pay for three cups of chicken.
Good luck and chicken tonight.
This is to win a lottery.Zhao Xun felt that with the endorsement by the head of the mountain, the sales of the three-cup chicken would be stable.
"Try this cucumber again, it's very refreshing."
Zhao Xun was eager to present the treasure, so he sent the cucumber to the head of the mountain very earnestly.
The head of the mountain took another piece of cucumber and put it in his mouth, chewing it lightly.
"It's really refreshing."
"Uh, there is one thing that I don't know whether to say or not."
"Say it."
"Shan Zhang, you said that the big battle is imminent, so you are not in a hurry?"
Although Zhao Xun knew that it was not good to say these things when Shan Chang was eating, he still couldn't help it.
"What is anxious, what is not anxious?"
The head of the mountain made a sharp move and said: "I know that they will come eventually, so I have been waiting. The reason why I refused to show up is because I want to catch them off guard. So do you think I am in a hurry or not?" ?”
"Uh, the head of the mountain should not be in a hurry, right?"
(End of this chapter)
Prince Li Xiankun has been restless these days.
The royal father favored Huiyan, a demon monk, and believed in the nonsense that the two dragons would not meet.
So much so that I haven't seen him for more than a month.
Li Xiankun already felt a sense of crisis.
Although he is a prince, he can be said to be under one person and above ten thousand people.
But as long as you don't ascend the throne for a day, there are still risks after all.
Li Xiankun didn't want to lose the throne in a muddle-headed way.
Although it seems that there is basically nothing among the kings that can pose a threat to him, but Li Xiankun still feels that he should be more careful.
It is by no means unreasonable to be careful when sailing for thousands of years.
Just when Li Xiankun felt a little restless, news suddenly came from the internal guard, saying that Zheng Jie wanted to see him.
For a moment Li Xiankun became vigilant.
Could it be that the father wants to test him through Zheng Jie?
No, if this is the case, it shouldn't be so direct, Li Xiankun is not stupid.He has been the prince for so many years, and he is still very clear that the prince is not allowed to make friends with powerful officials without permission.
Since it's not here to test him, what does that mean?
Li Xiankun felt a little puzzled.
This incident seems a bit illogical, but it may be possible to see some clues in combination with recent events.
Recently, from the looks of it, Zheng Jie has become much estranged from his father.
Li Xiankun felt that this should not be like a play on the spot.
If it was a play on the spot, it would be too real.
Like Li Xiankun, Zheng Jie probably hasn't entered the palace for a long time.
Relationship is something that depends on maintenance. If you don't get along for a long time, even the best relationship will have cracks.
Li Xiankun believed that Zheng Jie should also be very anxious at this moment.
So this is not what the father meant, but what Zheng Jie meant?
Zheng Jie wants to stabilize his position as a servant and supervisor by making friends with Donggong?
The more Li Xiankun thought about it, the more he felt that this possibility was very high.
Zheng Jie, an old fox, usually doesn't show his tail easily. He must be willing to do so because he knows he can't wait any longer.
Eunuchs are not the same as civilian and military generals.
A foreign minister can achieve a high position, in addition to the grace, his own ability and background are very important.
Courtiers from aristocratic families with strong abilities can easily be promoted and achieve high positions.
But eunuchs can achieve high positions, relying on the emperor.
Because for the emperor and the royal family, they are just a domestic slave.
One word from the emperor can determine his life and death, and can also determine his future.
Although Zheng Jie is very strong and a super master, once he loses his holy favor, he is still a phoenix in trouble.
So it is understandable that he seeks the support of the future emperor, Donggong.
Is it just that Li Xiankun wants to come forward?
It was a question he was hesitant about.
Although Zheng Jie is on the verge of falling into trouble now, his strength is still here.
If Li Xiankun can form an alliance with him, it will be very helpful for his future development.
As long as the two join forces, even if the father wants to make a move, he will have to consider three points.
But one thing is certain, that is, we must not meet too directly.Once it is seized by someone with a heart and used to attack the East Palace, it will be a devastating blow to Li Xiankun and even the princelings.
If you are in a high position, you must be careful and think about it everywhere, and you must not act rashly.
A negligence may lead to irreparable losses.
Li Xiankun was very tangled and hesitant.
The point is that he doesn't even have anyone to discuss this kind of thing.
There are many counselors in the East Palace, but Li Xiankun can even think of the faces of these counselors.
They will definitely persuade Li Xiankun to act cautiously again and again, and refrain from making friends with Zheng Jie, so as not to be caught by the kings and attack him wantonly.
But some things are high risk high reward.
This kind of matter can only be decided by Li Xiankun himself.
When Li Xiankun was anxious, he started to walk in the hall with his hands behind his back.
In his opinion, this is indeed an opportunity. If he seizes it, he may not only stabilize the position of the prince, but also attack the arrogance of the kings.
After all, Zheng Jie has a high position and authority. If Zheng Jie can openly support the East Palace, the hearts of the kings should also be enlightened.
"Forget it, let's take a gamble."
In the end, Li Xiankun decided to make friends with Zheng Jie.
It's dangerous, but as he said, high risk high reward.
The temptation to get Zheng Jie as a supporter was too great, and it was impossible for Li Xiankun to refuse.
Just where should we choose to meet?
This is a very headache.
Donggong definitely can't.
Although the East Palace is nominally independent of Daming Palace, it is actually adjacent to Daming Palace, even separated by a palace wall.
If there is any movement in the East Palace, Daming Palace will definitely respond immediately.
It can be said that every move of the East Palace is under the control of the father.
Zheng Jie's mansion?
This is of course not a wise choice.
In Li Xiankun's view, the mansions of these important ministers in the imperial court have put eyeliner in, the difference lies in the amount of eyeliner.
Sometimes the eyeliner will be in the light, and sometimes the eyeliner will be in the dark.
But there is no doubt that there is no shortage of eyeliner in Zheng Jie's mansion.
Since the East Palace and Zheng Jie's mansion cannot meet, we can only choose a neutral location.
After much deliberation, Li Xiankun felt that Dongshi was a good choice.
First of all, the mansions of Donggong and Zheng Jie are not too far from Dongshi, so it is very appropriate to choose Dongshi to meet in terms of distance.
Secondly, there are many people in Dongshi, which can serve as a good cover.
Even if the crown prince came to a certain restaurant in Dongshi, the kings would not be able to comment.
After Li Xiankun made up his mind, he immediately ordered someone to meet Zheng Jie.
It's not too late for this matter, and the next thing will be much easier if we meet earlier.
"His Royal Highness has agreed to meet with me."
In Zheng Jie's mansion, the slightly old eunuch sighed.
"I would never have come to this point anyway."
Beside him is bad handsome Feng Hao.
Feng Hao comforted Zheng Jie and said: "Duke Zheng, I can understand your feelings. But at this point, this may be the best choice. Your Majesty favors traitors, and even believed the demon monk's nonsense, thinking that the eighth grade of the son of heaven is equal to the realm of the great master." If this is the case, then the emperors of all dynasties can reach the realm of number one in the world with a little practice, so why are there other practitioners?"
Feng Hao felt that this was extremely absurd, but His Majesty the Emperor still believed it.
For a while, Feng Hao only felt that a piece of carp was stuck in his throat, not to mention how uncomfortable it was.
So Feng Hao met Zheng Jie immediately after leaving the palace, and explained the matter to Zheng Jie.
"Duke Zheng, I think we should stop hesitating about this matter. Your Majesty obviously doesn't care about Jiangshan Sheji at all, and all he thinks about is practice. If I say something disrespectful, he doesn't practice at all. Even if you have the aptitude to go against the sky, you will be punished by heaven if you act against the sky."
Originally, Feng Hao was very respectful to Emperor Xianlong, and would never question Emperor Xianlong about anything.
But now even Feng Hao has to think carefully about whether he should consider supporting the new king.
Although the prince is not a person with outstanding talents, at least he will not be worse than the current majesty after he ascends the throne, right?
In the past, although Emperor Xianlong often did not go to court, he still had a good grasp of the government.
But now?Emperor Xianlong's whole mind was on cultivation, he ignored the government and the government, and the military and government were in a mess.
Feng Hao even wondered if it could be worse?
"This matter is of great importance. We must be careful. If the matter is revealed, it will be a serious crime of ransacking our family and exterminating our family. It doesn't matter if our family is alone, but General Feng"
Zheng Jie didn't say any more when he said it here, some things are just as good as they are, and it's meaningless to say too clearly.
"Well, I understand what Zheng Gong means. I will definitely be cautious. There is only one chance for this kind of thing. If you use too much force, it will be counterproductive."
After a short pause, Feng Hao continued: "Duke Zheng, how will His Highness the Crown Prince react? This is beyond our plan. If His Highness the Crown Prince retreats, what should we do?"
Zheng Jie sneered and said, "His Royal Highness retreated? You underestimate our Eastern Palace too much. Although His Royal Highness may eat fast and chant Buddha in the Eastern Palace all day long, in fact he is not idle at all. Nearly half of the court is Princelings, just don't show it."
Feng Hao gasped when he heard this.
Good guy, sure enough, as a prince, he doesn't have a fuel-efficient lamp.
The prince's ability to obtain a reserve position is inseparable from his personal strategic ability besides his background.
"So Zheng Gong, are you sure that the crown prince will have one heart with us?"
"As long as he comes, he has no choice. As long as he sees us, he will be tied to death by us. Because in the eyes of foreign ministers, we have already taken refuge in the Eastern Palace, and the Eastern Palace has also made friends with powerful officials. Your Majesty will know about this kind of thing sooner or later."
Zheng Jie sighed and said, "I only hope that the crown prince can treat His Majesty well after ascending to the Great Treasure, at least to ensure that His Majesty dies well."
Royal power struggles have been ruthless since ancient times.
Zheng Jie is very clear about this.
It is not uncommon for father and son to kill each other and brothers to kill each other.
But after all, Zheng Jie had served Emperor Xianlong for so many years, and he didn't want to see Emperor Xianlong come to this point.
But Zheng Jie had no choice but to support the crown prince, because in Zheng Jie's view, some actions of Emperor Xianlong had touched the bottom line of a king.
A king can be lazy and slack in politics, but he can't be indiscriminate, and he can't help distinguishing loyal ministers from traitors.
In other words, a king must know everything well, and not let other courtiers decide.
Emperor Xianlong really lost himself now.
He had completely lost his judgment, and was fascinated by Master Huiyan, a monstrous monk.
Zheng Jie didn't know what ecstasy soup Master Huiyan poured into Emperor Xianlong.
But judging from the current results, Emperor Xianlong has indeed lost his mind.
It's okay if it's only for a short time, but if it's for a long time, the situation in North Korea will definitely become turbulent.
This is definitely not what Zheng Jie wants to see.
Because of this, the Great Zhou Dynasty was not far from being overthrown.
This is by no means sensational.
The upper beam is not right and the lower beam is crooked.
Even the king of a country does not have the determination and confidence to govern the government, what will the courtiers think?What will the place think?
Zheng Jie only felt that he was under tremendous pressure.
As an internal servant and supervisor, he should naturally shoulder the responsibility of helping the king.
But Emperor Xianlong didn't listen.
Otherwise, how could Zheng Jie go so far as to support the prince.
This is an unavoidable choice and a last resort.
But he can only choose this way.
"Duke Zheng, isn't it too dangerous to meet in Dongshi?"
"It's not dangerous. The East City is extremely noisy. This is the best cover. The most dangerous place is the safest place. You should understand this truth. No one would have thought that the Crown Prince of the East Palace would be in the East City with our two important ministers." meeting."
Feng Hao nodded in satisfaction at Zheng Jie's words and said, "Since that's the case, I'm relieved. Then I will order the bad guys to keep watch outside to prevent people from sneaking into the restaurant."
"Don't grab it, don't grab it, I have made various flavors of milk tea, everyone should try it."
Zhao Xun thought that the milk tea he made would be popular, but he didn't expect it to be so popular.
Good guy, brothers and sisters seem to have opened a brand new door, and it's out of control.
Zhao Xun seems to have underestimated the appetite of the brothers and sisters.It seems that the next time I make milk tea, I have to do a little more.
"Little brother, you have to tell me the secret recipe of your milk tea no matter what. That way we can make it ourselves when you're not around."
"That's right, junior brother. It's better to teach someone to fish than to give him a fish. Since it's milk tea, it's better to drink it all at once. Tell us how to do it, so we can do it ourselves."
"Junior brother, you have to be more generous, don't be so stingy."
"."
Zhao Xun didn't know what to say for a while.
Everything that can be said has been said by the brothers and sisters. After thinking about it carefully, what the brothers and sisters said is quite reasonable.
He chooses to accept it.
It's just that Zhao Xun doesn't intend to release the secret recipe.
He can compromise on other things, but he can't on this one!
"It's actually not that complicated to make milk tea, but I've been crossing the river by feeling the stones so far. So brothers and sisters, don't worry. I will definitely do my best to make milk tea. As for the formula I haven't settled down yet."
Of course, Zhao Xun couldn't say that he didn't want to release the formula, so he could only prevaricate in this way.
I believe that brothers and sisters should be understandable, right?
"Oh, little brother, you are not being kind. We all know that milk tea is your unique skill. But you don't have to guard against us. Didn't you say that we are tired of logging. Since it is If you are a family, you should have the same blessings and share the hardships. Right?"
Third Senior Brother Long Qingquan rolled his eyes and said, "Quickly tell me, what is the secret recipe of this milk tea?"
"."
Zhao Xun knew that the third senior brother, Long Qingquan, would be the first to jump out, so he sighed and said, "To tell you the truth, there is only one secret recipe for the milk tea I made—carefully."
Seeing the stunned looks of his senior brothers and sisters, Zhao Xun felt elated in his heart.
Good guy, I'm even afraid of myself!
"Brothers and sisters, have you ever heard of the spirit of craftsmanship, or the spirit of ingenuity? A carpenter, a bricklayer, and the others may not do so complicated crafts, but they repeat the same process day after day, year after year, They are able to achieve the ultimate in a handicraft and be responsible for everything they make, which is the spirit of craftsman, that is, the spirit of ingenuity."
Zhao Xun said very seriously: "Not everyone can do this. So I think that if you want to make what you make valuable, the most important thing is to put your heart into it."
hiss.
Zhao Xun could hear the gasps of his brothers and sisters, but he didn't care.
Because at this moment Zhao Xun was completely immersed in his own rhythm.
"Keep the spirit of craftsman and ingenuity, and we can make things that satisfy others. The same is true for making milk tea. It seems that this is just a cup of ordinary milk tea. But in fact, it contains too much Things. Because my heart is inside. Brothers and sisters, can you feel Xiao 72's heart?"
Zhao Xun thought to himself that as long as I don't feel embarrassed, it must be someone else.
Want me to hand over the secret recipe of milk tea?Don't even think about it!
"Uh"
Lu Guangdou, the sixth senior brother, was instantly impressed by Zhao Xun.
Although he felt that there was something wrong, Lu Guangdou felt that what the younger brother said made sense.
"So, I have already taught you the secret recipe. Please be careful when making milk tea, because only with your heart can you make good milk tea."
Well.
After some impassioned brainwashing speeches, Zhao Xun only felt that his mouth was parched.
He desperately needs a break right now.
Milk tea is definitely not drinkable, the more you drink it, the thirstier you become.
In Zhao Xun's view, clear spring water is the most suitable.
"Brother Mingyun, brother Mingyun, here I come!"
Zhao Xun was drinking clear spring water when he heard a familiar voice.
Zhao Xun instinctively raised his ears to listen.
Hmm. This voice is really familiar.
Ok?
It seems to be prosperous!
Yes, it is prosperity.
Zhao Xun made another confirmation, and after judging that it was Wangcai, Zhao Xun rushed out too.
Sure enough, as soon as Zhao Xun arrived at the door, he saw a small meat ball rushing towards him carrying a large bag.
Zhao Xun didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "You can come here, why do you bring so many things. Our two brothers are so familiar, so there is no need to be so polite."
Panting, Wangcai ran to Zhao Xun, threw the big and small bags on the ground, then sat down on the ground, and said after a while: "Brother Mingyun, you are wrong. I am not being polite to you. I'm going to live in Zhongnanshan."
"What, you want to move to Zhongnan Mountain?"
Zhao Xun was surprised for a while.
Fatty is serious, right?
"That's right, I'm going to live in Zhongnanshan, is there any problem?"
"Of course there is a problem. You don't live in Chang'an City. Why do you move to Zhongnan Mountain?"
If it was in the past, it would be fine, but now Zhongnanshan can be said to be overcrowded.
The tribes from the Allen Lore mainland flocked to Zhongnan Mountain after they couldn't enter Chang'an City.
At the beginning, Zhao Xun held the attitude of not rejecting anyone who came, but gradually he found that he seemed to be unable to bear it.
So far, only four or five tribes are in contact with the academy, and it is conservatively estimated that half of the tribes have not arrived.
If you wait until all the tribes have arrived, the picture is too beautiful to dare to look at.
At such a time, little fat man Wangcai actually wanted to move to Zhongnanshan, so he asked Zhao Xun to say something.
"Didn't they miss you? Besides, I have resigned now. I can go wherever I want, and no one can control me."
Wangcai's words startled Zhao Xun.
"You resigned? Seriously?"
"Of course, you are allowed to resign, and I am not allowed to resign? To tell you the truth, I have figured it out. The most important thing in a person's life is to make yourself happy. I really can't bear to be in the office of bad people. It's worth the cramped and depressing life. It's okay when you're here, and I can still have someone to chat with, but after you're gone, I'm really lonely."
"Isn't there still Brother Jia?"
"Brother Jia? Brother Jia is like a boring gourd. It's not like you don't know."
Wangcai curled his lips and said, "In the past, when you were here, brother Jia would still say a few words, but now that you are not here, brother Jia has stopped talking at all. I stayed in the morgue just like I was in the office of bad people. It's like staying in the house, but it's suffocating."
This metaphor is worthy of prosperity, it is really amazing.
"So you chose to resign without hesitation?"
Even so, Zhao Xun still felt that Wangcai's resignation was a bit hasty.
Zhao Xun had no choice. After killing King Wei, it was impossible for Zhao Xun to return to the bad man's office. Emperor Xianlong would definitely try his best to kill him.
Zhao Xun can't kill the king yet, so he can only resign.
But Wangcai is different.
Wangcai did not offend the emperor, so his resignation seemed a bit casual and hasty.
But if you think about it carefully, Wangcai is not short of money.
He has such a large family property waiting to be inherited, it seems that he can resign.
Forget it, Wangcai has already resigned, so it doesn't make any sense for Zhao Xun to think about it.
"Since that's the case, then you can live in the academy with peace of mind."
Although a large number of foreign races have poured into Zhongnan Mountain now.However, the space of Haoran Academy is still guaranteed.
Anyway, Wangcai's mouth is not bad, Zhao Xun can't drive Wangcai away.
"By the way, brother Mingyun, where do I live?"
Wangcai stared at Zhao Xun with big blingbling Kazilan eyes.
"It's in the bamboo building over there, living next to me, it should be fine."
Zhao Xun felt a little helpless towards Wang Caizhi.
Who calls them brothers?
"It's really nice, so I can keep pressing."
Wangcai showed his "true face" so quickly, but Zhao Xun was really taken aback.
"Good guy, so you came to the academy to press for manuscripts."
Seeing that he missed the point, Wangcai quickly waved his hands and said, "No, I didn't mean that. The reminder is just incidental, of course I miss you so much."
Zhao Xun's heart is ashamed at this moment.
Alas, it was hard to live a peaceful life for a few days, but Wangcai came to supervise the whole process to remind the manuscript.
This still makes people unable to live. He originally wanted to update Xianyu for a while, but now it seems that if he doesn't explode, it won't work?
That’s all, people are sometimes forced out.
If you don't put pressure on yourself, you will never know how great your potential is.
Zhao Xun gave himself psychological hints again and again, hoping to be strong again.
It's not that he can only update with salty fish, as long as he is under pressure, he can explode and start!
Of course, what to write next is a question.
Liao Zhai is finished, Three Kingdoms is finished, Journey to the West is finished, and Water Margin is also finished.
Are you going to write about the Red Chamber next?
This love and love is greasy and crooked, I am afraid that people in this era will not like it.
Great Zhou Shangwu, roughly similar to the Han and Tang Dynasties.
People in the Han and Tang Dynasties would not like this kind of love and love, greasy and crooked things.
Therefore, Zhao Xun can either choose to write decisive novels, or he can continue to explore the route of ghost novels.
After thinking about it carefully, Zhao Xun felt that Tang Chuanqi could be adapted.
Although the Legend of Tang Dynasty is also a novel in essence, there are still many differences in the specific form of expression from the later Ming and Qing novels.
What Zhao Xun has to do is to set the tone, and then make some local fine-tuning according to the background of Da Zhou.
As long as it is adjusted well, it must be a hit.
In his view, market analysis and market positioning are the most important link.
As long as this link is done well, the rest will not be a problem.
After discussing the topic of the new book with Wangcai, this issue has come to an end for the time being.
Of course, the next link is to feed the little fat man.
It is not easy to do this, because Wangcai is a very gluttonous guy.
This was the case when he was still in the Yamen of bad people. Wangcai was in charge of ordering takeaways and eating most of them.
In the end, Zhao Xun and Jia Xingwen often did not eat as much as Wangcai together.
Of course, Zhao Xun would not complain about anything.After all, Wangcai's body shape is there.
The larger the body and the more flesh, the more energy it consumes.
This is a truth that anyone who studies fitness understands.
So Zhao Xun tolerated Wangcai again and again, even if Wangcai ate part of Zhao Xun's takeaway, Zhao Xun would not say anything.
But now, it's Zhao Xun's turn to cook to feed Wangcai.
This situation is completely different.
Although Zhao Xun has the reputation of being a chef of the Great Zhou, it is not easy to feed a fat man like Wangcai.
Zhao Xun suddenly felt a lot of pressure.
But seeing Wangcai's watery Kazilan's big eyes staring at Zhao Xun all the time, Zhao Xun had no choice but to bite the bullet and cook.
Well, cooking is actually more interesting than practicing.
Since it's cooking, naturally we can't stick to the old and keep doing the old three.
Zhao Xun still wants to take this opportunity to research some new dishes.
Sometimes the study of cooking depends on a rush of motivation just like practicing.
"Make a three-cup cup first, and then pair it with dry noodles. It should be a perfect match."
After Zhao Xun thought about the menu, he began to chop meat.
The recipe of the Three Cup Chicken is actually similar to that of the Big Pan Chicken, so Zhao Xun still knows how to do it.
It's just a little hard to chop the meat.
The kitchen knife in the kitchen of the academy felt that it was not sharp enough, and I always felt a little awkward when chopping his meat.
It seems that Zhao Xun has to find an opportunity to give feedback to Long Qingquan, the third senior brother, and upgrade the kitchen tableware in the future.
There is a saying that if a worker wants to do a good job, he must first sharpen his tools.
If you can't even guarantee the quality of kitchen knives in the kitchen, how can you make dishes that satisfy everyone?
As for dry noodles, it is Zhao Xun's favorite.
Zhao Xun has one advantage, that is, he is not picky about food.
No matter what the dish tastes delicious to him.
There are big dishes for big dishes, and home-cooked dishes for home-cooked dishes, and there is no distinction between them.
Of course, Zhao Xun actually prefers home cooking.
Because in his opinion, home cooking is more smoky.
There is no feeling of superiority, no feeling of domineering, and some are just close to life.
Dry noodles are such a home-cooked dish.
Of course, adding three cups of chicken to the dry noodles would be too dry. Zhao Xun knew that at this time, he still needed a soup to neutralize it.
But what soup to make?
Is it seaweed egg drop soup, tomato egg, or golden emerald soup?
Either way, it's a thirst quencher.
In the end, after some weighing, Zhao Xun chose seaweed egg drop soup.
Because he prefers the taste of seaweed.
If it wasn't for his little brother Wan Yan's son who specially sent someone to deliver the seaweed, I am afraid that this dish would really be hard to come out.
But with the help of this little fan, Zhao Xun can make seaweed and egg drop soup with ease.
Well. Sometimes people still have to push themselves. If you don’t push yourself, you will never know how perfect a dish you can make.
When Zhao Xun took a sip of the freshly made seaweed and egg drop soup, he was moved to tears.
He really never thought that seaweed egg drop soup could be so delicious.
It tastes so delicious even without MSG.
This...is the smell of the sea.
Zhao Xun eagerly wanted to take this pot of seaweed and egg flower soup out to share with his brothers and sisters.Of course, the most important thing is to let Wangcai have a taste.
He must let Wangcai feel his heart.
Wang Cai was able to resign for him and come to Zhongnan Mountain to live permanently, so Zhao Xun naturally had to show some sincerity.
Three cups of chicken, dry noodles, tofu with shallots, cucumber, seaweed and egg drop soup.
Three dishes and one soup plus staple food.
Although the dishes are far from rich, they are definitely enough to eat.
Zhao Xun felt that even a glutton of Wangcai's size would be enough to fill his stomach.
"The food is served, everyone is coming to dinner."
In Zhao Xun's opinion, there must be a sense of ritual in cooking, and there must be a sense of ritual in serving dishes.
This represents the importance he attaches to his work.
Soon the brothers and sisters of the academy and Wangcai rushed towards the bamboo building under Zhao Xun's call.
Seeing Zhao Xun bring plates of delicacies to the table, almost everyone started to salivate.
"Little brother, why are you always able to make so many delicious dishes in different ways? It's really enviable."
"That's right, junior brother, just the smell of this delicacy makes people drool, we really can't bear it anymore."
"Haha, I'm honoring my brothers and sisters."
Zhao Xun stroked his hair very smugly.
In his opinion, this is undoubtedly the most enjoyable moment of the moment.
"Hurry up and eat, if the food is cold, it won't taste good."
Zhao Xun reminded him kindly and thoughtfully.
Wangcai, however, ignored these pleasantries and started to move on his own.
Zhao Xun thought in his heart, what a guy, this kid looks like he hasn't eaten for a few days.
Can't you be reserved and pay attention to your image?
Forget it, Wang Cai seems to have no image to speak of
Then let him go.
"The East Palace is getting restless."
In Qi Wang's mansion, Qi Wang Li Xiang said meaningfully.
Prince Qi's son Li Jianye asked cautiously: "Father, then should we make a move?"
"Don't worry, if we can't catch the real evidence at this time, we can't do anything to that person in the East Palace. Let them meet and have a chat first, and then we will catch a current one. At that time, the prince will be the yellow mud that fell into his crotch. , it’s either shit or shit.”
Qi Wang Li Xiang has been suppressed by the princelings in the past few months.
The biggest reason for this is that he was implicated by Zhao Xun.
Zhao Xun's beheading of King Wei caused an uproar, and then he returned to Beijing to resign and completely broke with the court.
Father must have hated Zhao Xun very much in his heart, and wished he could cut him into pieces, but because of Zhao Xun's teacher, the head of the mountain, he couldn't do it all the time.
The evil fire in Emperor Father's heart had nowhere to go, so it was all scattered on Qi Wang Li Xiang.
As for the wanton attacks by the princelings, Qi Wang Li Xiang is also very clear that there is an element of his father's acquiescence in it.
If there is no acquiescence from the father, even if the princelings are lent ten guts, they would not dare to attack King Qi with such a big name.
But none of that matters now.
Because Li Taiping has disappeared, King Qi has no final scruples.
Otherwise, the princelings can use this as an excuse to attack King Qi.
Now King Qi can completely free up his hands to fight back.
However, the crown prince was so careless at this time that he actually exposed his flaws.
If King Qi didn't seize the opportunity to fight back severely at this moment, he would be sorry for the prince's previous attack.
"Father, Zheng Jie and Feng Hao hosted a banquet for the crown prince at the same time. What are they trying to do? It's not as simple as swearing allegiance?"
"Of course it's not that simple."
For this eldest son, Qi Wang Li Xiang still pays great attention to training.
Whenever he has the opportunity, he will pass on his experience in the court for so many years to him.
While growing up royal, there are some things that come naturally.
But if no one takes it deliberately, it will be difficult to rely on natural growth.
"If the king's guess is correct, they are looking for an opportunity to launch a coup this time to support the crown prince."
When Qi Wang Li Xiang said this, Li Jianye gasped.
"Dare they do that?"
"Why don't you dare? The current situation in the court is chaotic, and the emperor asks that demon monk all day long, ignoring the government affairs. Now is just a good time for them to launch a coup. It depends on whether the prince has the courage."
What Qi Wang Li Xiang said was calm and calm, but to Li Jianye's ears, it was shocking.
If everything is as the father said, then there will be big moves in Chang'an City recently.
"Calm down, it won't be a showdown until the last moment."
Qi Wang Li Xiang said leisurely: "Our East Palace is also patient, he will not show his flaws easily. So we must wait until he can't bear it."
King Qi knew very well that the prince was in a state of struggle.
On the one hand, the prince is under one person and above ten thousand people, and on the other hand, he has to bear great pressure.
One day without being enthroned and practiced, one day cannot face north and back south.
The prince is like an early bird, and countless people want to kill him and replace him.
So it depends on how long the prince can endure.
If the prince can't bear it anymore, it's time for the Qi royal party to show its power.
"Father, do you think His Majesty will know about this matter?"
"The king doesn't know either."
King Qi shook his head and said: "In the past, with Father's character, he would definitely be able to know the movements of the crown prince and the kings like the palm of his hand. But for the past few months, Father has been getting along with that monstrous monk, which has delayed us a lot. So I think he may not be able to clearly understand the connection between the prince and Zheng Jie and Feng Hao. But there are still us, as long as we disclose this matter at the right time, the effect will be achieved. Jianye, remember that you can’t just look at the short-term when doing things, but take a long-term view. The mantis catches the cicada and the oriole is behind, and what we want to do is the oriole.”
"The son obeys the teaching of the father."
Li Jianye rushed to the kingly way very respectfully.
These days he found that he lacked a lot.
The father is indeed very powerful, even if a major event is imminent, he can still hold his breath.
He will be far behind in this point, and needs to learn more from his father. If this trouble occurs, Chang'an City will definitely not be peaceful. By then, it will not only be in our Qi Palace, but other kings will definitely have trouble too. Action is nothing more than the size of the action.Just look at it, at most ten days, there must be a group of demons dancing wildly. "
Qi Wang Li Xiang had some expectations when he said this.
Yes, for a vassal king, if the court has been going smoothly, there is basically no chance.
Only by muddying the waters will he stand a chance.
The muddier the water, the better his chances.
"Shan Chang, try this dry noodles, this three-cup chicken, this shallot mixed with tofu, this cucumber, and this seaweed egg drop soup."
After the brothers and sisters and Wangcai finished eating and left contentedly, Zhao Xun quietly brought a meal prepared in advance to the bamboo building where the head of the mountain was.
"These are disciples honoring you."
"Well, little 72, you have a heart."
The head of the mountain picked up a piece of chicken and chewed it carefully, with a smile of enjoyment on his face.
"This chicken tastes good."
Zhao Xun was ecstatic when he heard this.
Who doesn't know that Shan Chang is a top-level gourmet.
Being able to get high-quality comments from his elders proves that the taste of the three cups of chicken made by Zhao Xun is absolutely top-notch.
If the head of the mountain can speak for him, Zhao Xun will no longer have to worry about the Three Cups of Chicken not being sold.
The brothers are still clear about the accounts, and the brothers and sisters naturally have to pay for three cups of chicken.
Good luck and chicken tonight.
This is to win a lottery.Zhao Xun felt that with the endorsement by the head of the mountain, the sales of the three-cup chicken would be stable.
"Try this cucumber again, it's very refreshing."
Zhao Xun was eager to present the treasure, so he sent the cucumber to the head of the mountain very earnestly.
The head of the mountain took another piece of cucumber and put it in his mouth, chewing it lightly.
"It's really refreshing."
"Uh, there is one thing that I don't know whether to say or not."
"Say it."
"Shan Zhang, you said that the big battle is imminent, so you are not in a hurry?"
Although Zhao Xun knew that it was not good to say these things when Shan Chang was eating, he still couldn't help it.
"What is anxious, what is not anxious?"
The head of the mountain made a sharp move and said: "I know that they will come eventually, so I have been waiting. The reason why I refused to show up is because I want to catch them off guard. So do you think I am in a hurry or not?" ?”
"Uh, the head of the mountain should not be in a hurry, right?"
