Zongwu: The Days of Mixing in the Tongfu Inn

Chapter 110 Celebration
Early this morning!
Inside the inn, Tong Xiangyu was sitting at the long table with a round fan in his hand shaking gently, humming a little song very comfortably.

Since Yihong Restaurant closed down, Tongfu Inn has become the leader of the hotel industry in the town again.

The guests came back to eat in the inn one after another, and Dazui's cooking skills seemed to have improved to a higher level, which increased the number of customers a lot.

Tong Xiangyu hummed a ditty happily only when he watched the prosperous inn, and he was not in the state of anxiety before.

"Shopkeeper, that new dish that Xiaochen and I made before?" Li Dazui came out from the back kitchen and came to Tong Xiangyu's side to interrupt her little song.

In the interrupted state, Tong Xiangyu looked at the active Li Dazui, patted his head, and said with a smile:

"Big mouth, I don't have that much money to reward you"

"However, we need to get new dishes, but pay attention to the price! Don't always get what you guys eat for yourself, but make some new dishes with reasonable prices and add them to the menu of our inn."

After Li Dazui got Tong Xiangyu's permission, he left the lobby immediately. He planned to prepare the things first and show everyone at noon.

The sun in the sky slowly rose, and the number of pedestrians on the street gradually increased. The guests in the inn also appeared one after another, and everyone began to get busy.

After busying for a while, all the dishes needed by the guests were served, and then they slumped on the long table to rest for a while.

Bai Zhantang patted the towel on his hand and said:
“I really didn’t get used to it for a while”

"This is even better than when there was no Yihong Restaurant"

Everyone nodded in agreement, Zhang Chen said with a smile:

"Of course, you don't look at the current level of our inn. It can be said that it can occupy a place in the capital."

Guo Furong stood up straight when she heard the words, and answered with a face of agreement:

"Xiao Chen is not lying! Dazui's dish is better the more it is fried."

Everyone lamented for a while that the inn was getting better and better, and when they said that they were rich and powerful, Bai Zhantang slapped his forehead and changed the topic to the previous case.

After Zhang Chen heard Bai Zhantang mentioned the case and surrounded the crowd, he whispered:
"Brother Bai doesn't mention it, I will almost forget about it. The six gates have already sent the court's handling results in a hurry. It is estimated that the county government will make an announcement in a while."

"This time, Lou Zhixian made a small appearance in front of the emperor. If you didn't see his expression at that time, it could be regarded as a change of face in Sichuan. Anyway, I was amazed when I saw it."

Seeing that Zhang Chen was rambling about and didn't get to the point, Guo Furong slapped Zhang Chen on the shoulder and said urgently:

"Stop babbling, hurry up and get to the point!"

Zhang Chen said with a smile:

"Dongchang did not steal chickens this time, but Xichang went to the palace first to tell the emperor the result of this operation, and even secretly sued Cao Zhengchun for not catching any big fish this time." Responsibility is all pushed to Dongchang”

"The emperor was so angry that people went to Dongchang to ask him whether Cao Zhengchun could still lead Dongchang. If he couldn't, then he would give it to someone capable. He was so confused that he didn't know what happened."

Seeing that everyone was puzzled, Zhang Chen explained in detail:

"Dongchang has a large sphere of influence. Recently, Cao Zhengchun is busy targeting Lord Tiedan. Maybe Cao Zhengchun really didn't know about the last action. It is possible that his subordinates did it without telling him."

Bai Zhantang raised his hand to signal to Zhang Chen to tell him directly what he was interested in, and then Zhang Chen said with a smile:

"Then let's not talk about them! Anyway, we are still far away, so let's talk about the things we care about."

"Most of the arresting heads who participated in the operation of the six gates were born at the first level, and some of them got some harvests such as pills and cheats. The most important thing is..."

Zhang Chen pulled Chang Yin to see everyone's expectant gazes before continuing:

"Our inn also has rewards this time, although it's just a simple honor of meritorious service"

"But we can be regarded as a name in the imperial court. If there is something to do, we can go directly to the county government for help. By the way, the imperial court will give priority to these meritorious personnel in some matters."

Guo Furong and Bai Zhantang didn't feel much about this, but Xiucai's eyes lit up and he said:
"That means I will..."

The scholar didn't finish his words, but the meaning was very obvious. Zhang Chen smiled and nodded to indicate that he thought well.

But seeing that the scholar was too excited, he poured a basin of cold water and said:
"Brother Xiucai, don't get excited. The premise of all this is based on the fact that you are admitted to Jinshi, and its function is to protect your future path."

Zhang Chen's words made the scholar completely calm down, and he thanked Zhang Chen from the bottom of his heart:

"That's enough! I believe I will be on the list"

Seeing this, everyone looked at the scholar with encouraging eyes.

Seeing this, Xiucai looked at everyone even more moved and said:

"Thank you for your support! I will pass the next scientific examination"

It was the first time for Zhang Chen to see such a high-spirited scholar. He usually looks weak, so how could he be as energetic as he is now.

When Bai Zhantang saw such a talented person, his eyes were full of memories. He was once so energetic and famous.

Seeing this, Zhang Chen smiled and said:

"Brother Bai, don't worry, there is still good news for you"

After finishing speaking, he handed an official document in his arms to Bai Zhantang.

Hearing this, Bai Zhantang took the sealed official document with trembling hands, turned his head to look at Zhang Chen, and seemed to ask if this is what he wanted?
Zhang Chen nodded affirmatively, and stretched out his hand to signal him to take it apart.

At some point, Tong Xiangyu and Li Dazui came to the long table and looked at Bai Zhantang with everyone. Zhang Chen looked up at Guo Furong suspiciously, after all, she was the only one who wasn't here just now.

Seeing Zhang Chen's inquiry, Guo Furong said carelessly:
"Of course we should be together on such an occasion."

Seeing this, Zhang Chen didn't speak and gave Guo Furong a look of praise.

Seeing that everyone was paying attention to him silently, Bai Zhantang opened the sealed official document with a happy smile on his face.

After pulling out the official document, he opened the official document tremblingly and looked at the paper with the bright red seal on it, on which was written the document about exempting Bai Zhantang from his previous crimes.

Bai Zhantang held the paper and said excitedly:
"My arrest warrant?"

Zhang Chen said affirmatively:
"Cancelled!"

Bai Zhantang continued to say in a trembling voice:

"Can I walk on the street openly?"

This time, everyone smiled and nodded, and Bai Zhantang said with red eyes:
"I've been looking forward to this day for too long! I, I,..."

Before Bai Zhantang finished speaking, Guo Furong held his arms and said:

"Old Bai is fine! It's fine!"

"Hey! I'm a little awkward when I go on."

Guo Furong shivered as if thinking of something, Bai Zhantang's brewing emotions were interrupted by Guo Furong, and he froze on the spot for a moment, not knowing what to say.

Seeing this, Zhang Chen quickly stood up and said:

"This is a great thing! It also relieved Brother Bai's heart knot for many years. How about we have a good celebration tonight?"

Having said that, Zhang Chen looked at Tong Xiangyu, and Tong Xiangyu agreed with a smile. She also had some ideas for today's dinner. Before Bai Zhantang was worried about his identity and dared not go any further, now she wanted to see if Bai Zhantang was worried.

　Thanks for the support!
