The eldest grandson of Emperor Ming Dynasty!

Chapter 71 Face
After a moment of trance, Liu He quickly stood up from the chair.

"Young master Zhu, I am the supervisor of ceremonies, and I have signed Liu He. Please don't take offense when I come to disturb you this time."

"Breakfast at Mr. Zhu's tea house is famous in the capital, even the palace has heard of it."

"It happened to be at the Xiaoling Mausoleum, and sacrifices were needed recently, so I wanted to go to Mr. Zhu's house early."

Liu He said politely, with a gentle tone and an intimate demeanor, without any sense of arrogance.

This made Zhu Ying feel very comfortable.

"Eunuch Liu is lucky to be able to see our teahouse's breakfast. I don't know how much we need and when it will be delivered. Please tell Eunuch Liu."

Zhu Ying said with a smile.

He secretly thought in his heart that it really deserves the seal of the Supervisor of Rites. Although Zhu Yuanzhang strictly forbids eunuchs from intervening in politics now, even in the capital, the Supervisor of Rituals' palm seal is definitely considered a big shot.

It's like some big leaders that Zhu Ying's later generations have come into contact with.

The more important a person is, the more polite and tactful he is when dealing with others.

The so-called Hades is easy to mess with, and little ghosts are hard to deal with, that's the reason.

Liu He heard the words and said: "I have already discussed the specific matters with the shopkeeper of the teahouse before Mr. Zhu arrived."

Hearing this, Zhu Ying bowed politely and said, "I'm sorry to bother you, father-in-law. I don't know what else to order. I need to wait for my attention."

Liu He thought for a while and replied: "Young Master Zhu was so famous earlier, in addition to sacrifices, he also needs to prepare some, and send them to all the highnesses in the palace to taste."

Zhu Ying immediately understood that this was not only a big order, but could be done for a long time.

Of course he is very clear about his early taste.

If the princes and grandchildren in the palace eat it, they are worried that there will be no market.

It is estimated that it will not be long before the number of cooks will be expanded.

As for the cooks in the store, Zhu Ying uses his own people.

Some of the young men were recruited from the capital.

When it comes to the production method and food processing, he doesn't want to leak it out for nothing.

Fortunately, my own troops are about to arrive in the capital.

Presumably there is time.

"Eunuch, please rest assured, you will never let him down." Zhu Ying replied.

"Then I will leave this matter to Mr. Zhu." Liu He said with a smile.

After speaking, he seemed to be ready to leave.

He just stopped after taking two steps, and seemed to remember something, and told Zhu Ying: "I'll send someone over to the imperial palace."

"It's just that Xiaoling's side may have to trouble Mr. Zhu to go there in person."

After speaking, Liu He was a little puzzled when he saw Zhu Ying.

He explained again: "The Xiaoling Mausoleum in Zhongshan is where the royal mausoleum is located. The matter is of great importance, and it is guarded by the guards of the Xiaoling Mausoleum and supervised by the Divine Palace Supervisor."

Hearing this, Zhu Ying's doubts disappeared.

Obviously, if you want to enter this kind of place, you must need a token to guide you, not just anyone.

Whether it is a servant or a shopkeeper in a teahouse, they are not qualified.

Even his own status as a merchant is not enough.

But Eunuch Liu said so, he certainly can't shirk it.

After pondering for a while, he said, "Eunuch, I am not familiar with some etiquette requirements for royal sacrifices. I wonder if Eunuch can teach you a thing or two."

Ancient feudal etiquette was very cumbersome, and Zhu Ying mainly lived in the border areas of Ming Dynasty in the early days.

Although he is registered in the Ming Dynasty, he is totally blind to these rules.

Especially places like Xiaoling Mausoleum are heavily guarded, and when it comes to royal tombs, they are extremely particular.

If one is reckless and one doesn't pay attention, maybe the head will be lost.

Liu He was taken aback when he heard this.

Immediately he reacted, and said with a smile: "Young Master Zhu is worrying too much, you just need to be respectful, and you don't need to be too particular."

Having said that, Liu He complained in his heart.

Give him ten guts, and he wouldn't dare to teach His Royal Highness the rules.

Who is the rule made for? It is made for eunuchs like him, subjects of the world.

If you want to say that the most unruly person is the person who sets the rules, the current Majesty Zhu Yuanzhang.

Not to mention His Majesty, even the vassal kings, many princes and grandchildren, except for the basic royal etiquette, no one learns some cumbersome rules.

However, when Zhu Ying heard this, a trace of vigilance flashed in her eyes.

You don't even want to explain the rules. Could it be that you want to harm me?
Zhu Ying's eyes moved slightly, but she was thinking quickly in her mind, who made the move and wanted to use the rules of the palace to assassinate him.

In ancient times, especially in today's Ming Dynasty, the word "rule" could really kill people.

Especially in the royal tombs, if you don't pay attention to it, or if you put a crime directly, it is a capital crime.

When meeting Liu He for the first time, Liu He was overly polite, which made Zhu Ying feel a little confused.

Doubts are now resolved.

After a little hesitation, Zhu Ying flirted with Zhang Bo.

Uncle Zhang understood, and immediately took out a small wooden box from the counter.

"Trouble father-in-law for a trip. It's the first time we meet. I don't have anything good here. It's just this worthless gadget that I got from the Western Regions. Please don't dislike me."

Zhu Ying took the wooden box and passed it to Liu He without opening it.

Liu He paused slightly, as if he had seen a ghost, he pushed a few steps and exclaimed in surprise: "I can't do it, I can't do it."

Changing his mind, Liu He felt his back was drenched in cold sweat.

This gave him great courage, and he didn't dare to accept bribes from His Highness the eldest grandson.

Not to mention whether His Highness the eldest grandson will be able to ascend the throne in the future.

Generally speaking, eunuchs pass orders to charge some money for tea. As the emperor's servant, they are not considered greedy.

But this thing depends on the person.

For eunuchs, not only His Majesty, but the entire royal family can be regarded as masters.

Eunuchs are like servants of the master's family.

A servant who accepts bribes from his master does not think his life is long enough.

Especially His Highness the eldest grandson in front of him, Liu He clearly knew how much His Majesty valued him.

If you want to accept it, let His Majesty know about it.

Peeling the skin and filling it with grass is light, maybe it is Zhu Jiuzu, and the family doesn't have to set up a banquet.

Seeing Liu He's reaction so fiercely, Zhu Ying's face darkened a little, and then he recovered immediately.

He can already decide that this time sending him to Xiaoling as a sacrifice is completely the concept of Hongmen Banquet.

It must be someone trying to engage him secretly.

Especially after Liu He said a few polite words tremblingly, he couldn't wait to leave.

This made Zhu Ying more sure.

"Boss, what's the problem?" Zhang Bo asked.

He had stayed by Zhu Ying's side for a long time, and he was familiar with some affairs. The atmosphere just now was obviously a little abnormal, so he walked over to Fu Er and asked.

Zhu Ying looked in the direction of the door, narrowed her eyes slightly, shook her head slightly and did not speak.

Instead, he came to the counter and asked the shopkeeper to check the number of breakfasts that had been docked with Eunuch Liu.

Seeing the huge quantity demand, Zhu Ying knew that this matter was not easy.

"Notify the back kitchen that we will continue to make breakfast overnight. After the completion, everyone will be rewarded with money."

"Yes, Master." Uncle Zhang responded, and then asked: "Master, then."

Zhu Ying interrupted with a wave of her hand, and said, "Let the cooks do it with peace of mind, don't delay. I'll go to Prince Yan's Mansion."

Zhu Ying frowned slightly.

In fact, he wanted the old man to ask him more about this aspect.

But he didn't have the old man's contact information at all. According to the usual practice, the old man should not come here until the day after tomorrow, but he will go to Xiaoling tomorrow.

It is a matter of family and life, especially in places like the capital, so there is no room for carelessness.

Zhu Ying, who worked in sales in her previous life, has long seen through the matter of face. When it is time to seek help, she will never hesitate.
