self-improvement as a cook

Chapter 82

Liu Hai's complexion changed, and he wished he could go up and kick that idiot Han Zizhang to death, because his head is just for display, and he couldn't see such an obvious thing. So don't say anything, don't you just wait for it to come out at this moment, so you can clean them up.

At this time, if you bite to death, you don’t know, even if you are guilty, you will not be guilty of death. What’s more, this girl also said that since ancient times, there have been people who have eaten stones to seek longevity. If it is really poisonous, then many officials and nobles are fools. .

Even though the imperial court issued a ban in the Wei and Jin Dynasties, it didn't prove that this thing was poisonous. It didn't matter, he started to bite indiscriminately, biting Cui Qing, it's nothing more than biting himself. As for the Queen Mother, she couldn't help but sternly said: "Han Zizhang, what nonsense are you talking about? If your skills are inferior to admitting defeat, you will lose. You can't count yourself as a chef if you lose like this. If you lose this time, you can go back and learn from Chef An."

Liu Hai is also good, and the two sentences brought the matter back to cooking skills, and indirectly reminded Han Zizhang, don't talk about it, if you really reveal everything, it will only be worse for him.

But Han Zizhang can't hear this at the moment. The name of murdering the emperor and the empress is on his head, that is a serious crime of killing the nine clans. He is so afraid that he is already in chaos. The meaning, but felt that the dead eunuch wanted to throw himself out.

Hatred came up again in my heart, I gritted my teeth, pointed at Liu Hai and said, "Liu Hai, at this moment you want to get rid of it, there is no way, since you are unkind, don't blame me for being unrighteous, let's just do nothing today. Don't stop, shake your arms and come out, let's see what kind of person Liu Hai is pretending to be. Cui Qing is still sick at the moment, and he can't even get up on the kang. Where can I find green polished rice? Strengthen your body, but it's a pity that it's past the season, so if you can't get it, you can say that Cheng'en Gong's mansion has many capable people, go to Cheng'en's mansion to ask, maybe there is another way..."

Before Han Zizhang finished speaking, he was kicked. It was none other than Chen Engong and Wang Geng. When he got off the table, he kicked hard. , If you don't do it well, you can kick your breath.

So, he still didn't give up, and then kicked over again. Although this Wang Geng is old now, he was also a martial arts practitioner in the early years. He has led soldiers. Anyone who is an expert can tell that Wang Geng With both feet, he wanted to kick Han Zizhang to death to avoid future troubles.

An Ran's dazed effort was already covered by An Jiamu, and he whispered in her ear: "Today's big show is just starting, let's stay away and watch the excitement."

An Ran couldn't help but said anxiously: "But..."

An Jiamu said sourly: "Don't worry about that fellow of yours, that kid is smarter than anyone else, not to mention, with the Emperor protecting him, who can do anything to him."

An Ran thinks about it too, Lin Xing'er is much smarter than herself, and she definitely won't suffer, so she hides behind An Jiamu and watches this dog-eat-dog scene.

How could Yue Jintang make Wang Geng happy? He sat here for a long time, just for this moment. If he kicked Han Zizhang to death, how would the scene continue? If Han Zizhang died, how would he deal with it? Liu Hai and Wang Geng.

Therefore, Yue Jintang, who jumped out before Wang Geng could get down for the second time, stopped him: "I said, Mr. Cheng En, you are too angry, you kicked Han Zizhang to death, and you are suspected of killing him. "

Wang Geng raised his brows: "Yue Jintang, get the hell out of me. You're just a cook. It has nothing to do with murder. Such a lawless cook dares to poison the empress dowager. He deserves death."

Yue Jintang's face turned serious: "What Cheng Engong said is wrong, even if Han Zizhang dies, he will be guilty. He is also an imperial cook, and he owns the Dali Temple of the Ministry of Criminal Justice. , there is something about your Cheng Engong here."

Wang Geng stared at him: "What a joke, who would believe this cook's nonsense, how could this old man still harm the Queen Mother?"

Yue Jintang chuckled: "I didn't believe it at first, but if you kicked Han Zizhang to death, I would be a little confused. Since it wasn't your idea, let's not be in a hurry. We have to wait for the truth to come out and get you out." Well, otherwise, you, Cheng Engong, will not be able to bear the name of murdering the empress dowager."

Wang Geng's eyes flickered, he glared at Han Zizhang, and fell silent.

But the kick just now hit Han Zizhang's chest, and now he vomited a mouthful of blood, knowing in his heart that if he doesn't die today, he must die, but his own death will never make others feel better, especially Liu Hai.

Thinking of this, the eyes staring at Liu Hai seemed to shoot out poisonous light, he struggled to his feet, and knelt down in front of the emperor: "It is Liu Hai's idea that the emperor makes decisions for the little one, and everything the little one said is true, Not only this incident, but also the imperial chef contest six years ago, when Liu Hai found the younger one and forced Zheng Chunyang to make a vow to break his wrists, bribed several stewards of the imperial dining room, and exchanged Zheng Chunyang's ingredients , for the purpose of putting the little one in the imperial dining room, in order to reap the benefits. The little one said that Zheng Yuchu was a senior in the kitchen business, and it shouldn't be like this, but Liu Hai forced the little one to do it, and said that the little one would be killed if he didn't do it. Little family."

Pfft... After saying these words, several officials couldn't help laughing. This Han Zizhang is really embarrassed to pick himself out. He is not happy. Without him, Liu Hai, who can run on Zheng Chunyang, will stay away after breaking his wrist. Jizhou, it's a fart, if you think about it, you can figure it out.

The Empress Dowager didn't know well, Liu Hai couldn't keep it if it went on like this, this Liu Hai was her confidant, she knew everything, if she was convicted, it would be troublesome if she revealed everything.

Thinking of this, he sneered: "Six years ago when the imperial chef competition was held, Zheng Chunyang was still in the imperial dining room. According to what you said, Liu Hai colluded with others to frame him. Could it be that Zheng Chunyang is dumb and won't seek justice? Status, as long as you make it clear to the emperor, why do you have to cut off your wrists and go away? You are ambitious and want to murder Aijia and murder the emperor. Now that you have failed, you still have to worry about other things. If you beat him to death, if you don’t procrastinate, leaving him here to talk nonsense, chasing good people indiscriminately will not work.”

As soon as the empress dowager spoke, the two eunuchs behind were about to go over to arrest him, but they gave the emperor a look and hurriedly shrank back: "This matter is very important, and we must ask the truth, and now it is also implicated in the royal chef contest six years ago. What's more, we need to make a clear and clear trial, if the past is so muddled, how will the people of the world and the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty treat me."

The Empress Dowager's face changed: "It's just a cook, how can it still tire the emperor's reputation."

The emperor said: "The cook is also a human being, and the cook is also a citizen of my Great Yan. The late emperor once said that all people in the world are my people." He looked at Han Zizhang and said, "You have heard what the Queen Mother said. Tell me, Why did Zheng Chunyang not hesitate to cut his wrists and admit defeat when he knew that you were doing something wrong?"

Han Zizhang couldn't speak.

An Ran broke away from An Jiamu's hand and took two steps forward: "Go back to the emperor, the women know why the master surrendered."

These ministers were really confused. It was supposed to be a good birthday banquet and a royal chef competition, but why did it cause so many troubles, one after another, people watched frightened, afraid that they would be involved, but they didn't expect it At this moment, An Ran would jump out and say that she knew how old she was six years ago, but she was only a little girl in her early ten years old.

Wang Geng snorted coldly: "Chef An, this is not the time when you are in your early years. You are Zheng Chunyang's apprentice. How old were you six years ago, what do you know?"

An Ran: "This has nothing to do with age. An Ran just understands the difficulty of the master's doing this. As we all know, our kitchen industry is divided into two factions, the North and the South. There have been constant battles between the two factions for many years. The master has been trying to eliminate the kitchen industry for half his life. The dispute between the North and the South made the kitchen industry really peaceful, so he entered the palace and became the imperial cook. He didn't want to, but because the master became the imperial cook, some cooks of the Southern School relied on the name of the master to run against the Northern School. This North-South dispute Not only did it not subside, but it intensified.

Just in time for the imperial chef competition six years ago, Han Zizhang competed with the chef as a chef from the Northern School. It’s okay to say that Han Zizhang just lost, but he made a despicable move. Since then, the situation of the northern cooks has become even more difficult.

The master often said that the north and the south each have their own strengths in cooking, so why bother to fight for each other, not to mention that they are all in the same industry. To expose this matter, the master just wants to use his own means to exchange for the peace of the world's kitchen industry. "

As he said that, he looked at Han Zizhang: "The title of imperial chef you have been thinking about, the title of the world's best chef, my master has never seen it in his eyes. The important thing for us cooks is not how good our cooking skills are, but how good we are first. Only by learning to be a human being and standing upright can one become a real chef.

And you, Han Zizhang, for the sake of self-interest, did not hesitate to provoke a dispute between the cooks in the north and the south, and caused many colleagues to lose their jobs. You know, what they lost was not their own job, but the livelihood of the whole family. You know, you caused it How many wives were separated, and how many families fell apart.Han Zizhang, you are not worthy to be a cook at all, you are the scum of our kitchen business. "Gouzi looked at Han Zizhang with tears in his eyes, thinking of his father, he couldn't go up and punch him.

Han Zizhang refused to accept it: "It's useless to talk about it. I'm not your master. From the day I learned to cook, all I wanted was to be famous and rich. What kind of cooking business, what kind of colleagues, has nothing to do with me. When I can't eat, I don't want to eat. Seeing which colleagues help me, why should I miss them and do what they do for them, it's just a joke."

Yue Jintang: "You are really shameless, but now the matter has come to light. The imperial chef competition six years ago was indeed a conspiracy between Liu Hai and you."

The queen mother quit and snorted: "The king of Xiaoyao County is trying to induce a confession. Besides, based on Han Zizhang's one-sided words, how can it be concluded that Liu Hai moved his hands and feet, and he is not the only one in the imperial dining room? Hai is the person in front of the Ai family, if it is said that Liu Hai moved his hands and feet, could it be that the Ai family ordered it."

Yue Jintang hurriedly said: "Jintang dare not."

"The Ai family sees that there is nothing that you, the king of Xiaoyao County, dare not do. You don't know that you are an Ai family. You and the An family have opened a big business in Suzhou."

However, Yue Jintang laughed: "Is the empress dowager a god? You know all about Jintang's stay in Suzhou. Could it be that His Royal Highness Ning Wang told you?"

The queen mother's face changed: "Don't talk nonsense, King Ning has been avoiding living in the south of the Yangtze River, and the Ai family's birthday is not allowed to go to Beijing to celebrate his birthday. How can I have a chance to say anything to the Ai family."

Yue Jintang: "That's Jintang's nonsense, but Jintang is really curious, if it weren't for King Ning, the Empress Dowager worshiped Buddha in the Palace of Compassion Ning all day long, how would she know about Jiangnan's affairs? Is Jintang's business open? It's been a few months, the Empress Dowager is really well-informed about this news."

The Empress Dowager's heart skipped a beat. It's a big taboo to exchange news with the outside world in the harem, especially since King Ning is in the south of the Yangtze River. It's hard to explain this matter, and she regretted it secretly. Going around, snorted: "Aijia is just heard."

Yue Jintang nodded: "It's common for Eunuch Liu to go out for a stroll, but I don't know if the Empress Dowager heard what this slave said. The Empress Dowager should not trust this slave, but she knows people and faces but doesn't know her heart. Don't look at this slave bowing his knees in front of the empress. , with a slavish look on his face, not sure what he was thinking about, otherwise, he would not have secretly obtained some bluestone grease to murder the Queen Mother."

Even though she knew that Yue Jintang was trying to sow discord, the queen mother couldn't help but glance at Liu Hai, the matter about Qingshizhi was indeed puzzling.

Seeing the Queen Mother's wink, Liu Hai hurriedly knelt on the ground: "Queen Mother, don't listen to the nonsense of Prince Xiaoyao. This servant is loyal to you and dare not show any disrespect."

Yue Jintang: "It's useless to say it nicely, but Han Zizhang said that you found Qingshizhi, or from Cheng'en Gong's mansion. If you can't explain what happened today, you are not the one who murdered the empress dowager and the emperor. A slave can take it."

Sweat dripped from Liu Hai's forehead. Although he hated Han Zizhang in his heart, he knew in front of his eyes that Cheng Engong must not be involved. Cheng Engong is the biological father of the Empress Dowager. If this is unlucky, he will die completely. As long as she bites her, the queen mother will naturally try to save herself.

Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth: "It's the slave who heard Cui Qing talk about this green rice. He listened to it and found out that it can be replaced with green stone fat. Because he was afraid that Han Zizhang would not believe it, he said that he got it from Cheng'en Gong's mansion, slave. I only heard that many noble people in ancient times ate this food, thinking that it was a good thing for longevity, but I don’t know anything else.”

Liu Hai took the matter to himself with a few words, the Empress Dowager and Cheng Engong breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, the Empress Dowager said: "You are just a slave, and you are not an imperial physician. Too many, but, you slave is so reckless, you have to be severely punished..."

Just as he was about to open his mouth, the emperor sternly said: "What a bold servant, he clearly wanted to murder the Queen Mother and me by finding this kind of poison. This slave will be suppressed and handed over to the Punishment Division for strict interrogation."

When the emperor said a word, a few guards came up, and before Liu Hai could shout, they gagged and dragged on.

The queen mother's face changed: "What is the emperor doing? Didn't Liu Hai just say that he didn't know that this thing was harmful."

"Queen, how can the words of these slaves be trusted? How can ordinary people find this green rice? What's more, how can he, a slave in the palace, have such contacts? There may be some kind of person behind this slave. Murdering the Empress Dowager, murdering me, if this person is not caught, how can I feel at ease, the empress mother is relieved, I will definitely investigate this matter to the bottom."

Looking at the emperor's stern gaze, the queen mother felt her eyes darkened and her body swayed. The emperor stretched out his hand to support her: "Take care, queen mother."

The Queen Mother pushed him away, and sneered a few times: "The emperor is really filial. Today's birthday banquet, I'm afraid that the family will not be blessed, so I will go back to the palace." She turned and left in a hurry.

"Respectfully send off the mother, respectfully send off the empress dowager..."

After the empress dowager left, Liu Hai also entered the Punishment Department, leaving only Han Zizhang.

The emperor gave Han Zizhang a disgusted look: "Han Zizhang deceived the emperor and committed heinous crimes. He was imprisoned for punishment and executed. His apprentices and gang members were all arrested and brought to justice, and his family property was confiscated."

Han Zizhang rolled his eyes, passed out, and was dragged down like a dead body by the guards.

The emperor looked at An Ran: "I admire Chef An's culinary skills, but I wonder if Chef An is willing to work in the imperial dining room?"

An Ran: "Thanks to His Majesty's great grace, civilian women shouldn't refuse, but civilian women are now married and are not suitable to stay in the palace."

The emperor smiled and nodded: "I really envy An Jia, with a chef like you, my imperial dining room can't even compare, but I don't have to envy you for too long, I'm looking forward to your culinary academy. , I hope that Chef An can teach you a chef as soon as possible, and then I and the people in this world can enjoy delicious food."

Lin Xing: "Since the emperor has bestowed the word "Anji" on the college, why not mention the signboard by the way, this imperial pen inscription can show the sacred meaning of Long Live." After speaking, he had ordered the little eunuch to prepare the four treasures of the study .

An Ran was stunned, Lin Xing'er was too courageous, did she really regard the emperor as those men who are easy to fool, this is playing with fire.

The emperor glanced at her from the side, and stretched out her hand. Lin Xing'er hurriedly handed over the pen, and grabbed the emperor's wide robe sleeve doggy-leggedly to prevent the fragrant ink from sticking to her. , but wrote five words, the best chef in the world.

After that is the official palace banquet.

The Empress Dowager left, but the birthday banquet still had to go on. Those high officials of the imperial court were fine. As long as they didn’t dismiss, they would always have the opportunity to attend the palace banquet. But those cooks outside were different. Far away, I can't see the sky clearly, so I entered the palace once, and when I go out later, the eight generations of ancestors have followed suit.

It has nothing to do with them whether the Queen Mother is there or not. On the contrary, because of these cooks, it is extraordinarily lively.

An Ran and his wife did not stay, An Ran didn't like the palace very much, everyone from top to bottom wore masks, smiling was not laughing, crying was not crying, every sentence he said was repeated in his heart several times, what the other party said, I also have to wonder if there is any other meaning, I am really tired and flustered.

Moreover, I was really tired, not because of the cooking, but because of the scheming, even if An Ran didn't like it, but when dealing with Han Zizhang and Liu Hai, who were backed by the Queen Mother, she had to cheer up and not make any mistakes. Suitable for intrigue.

After leaving the palace, An Ran couldn't help but glance back, An Jiamu saw that her expression was a little off, and said softly, "What are you thinking?"

An Ran shook her head: "I just think, why is the palace banquet so lively, but why is it so deserted?"

An Jiamu understood what she meant, and held her hand: "This is a big stage, where these people come on stage, each with their own ideas, each playing their own roles, the excitement is also false, and naturally it is deserted."

An Ran looked at him sideways: "I do think of our small courtyard in Qizhou, although it's not big, I always miss it."

An Jiamu laughed: "It's not easy. If we have time to wait, let's go and live for a while. It's just that you are going to open a culinary art academy, so I'm afraid you won't be free for a while."

An Ran sighed: "He is obviously a lazy person but he always finds things for himself."

An Jiamu: "You're lazy. If you have me, just leave it to me. However, where do you plan to open the Culinary Academy?"

An Ran shook her head: "I haven't thought about this yet?"

An Jiamu: "Follow me and stay in Jizhou."

An Ran turned her head and looked at him for a while: "You want to go back to Jizhou."

An Jiamu nodded: "Falling leaves return to their roots. In the final analysis, Jizhou is our roots, and we should also visit our parents' graves."

Speaking of this, An Ran couldn't help but feel a little guilty. It was fine if she didn't know that he was An Jiamu before, but now that she knew it, she didn't go back to Jizhou.

My own feelings for Jizhou are different, not to mention, it's time to visit the godmother's family.

Thinking of the godmother, I can't help but say: "I accepted the godmother back then, and let her live a good life in the future, but now I have been away for a year, and I have not returned after marrying, it is really unfilial."

An Jiamu pulled her into the car: "Your godmother's family is doing well."

An Ran leaned in his arms: "I know, you take good care of them, but it's time to go back, but you can't leave right now."

An Jiamu: "Do you miss Lin Xing again? He is a eunuch and cannot leave the palace."

An Ran shook her head: "He's not a eunuch, I'm pretty sure."

An Jiamu was stunned: "You said he was not a eunuch, how could it be possible?"

An Ran nodded: "Although I don't know how she got into the palace, but I'm sure, she is not a eunuch, she is my elder sister, a elder sister who is closer than my own elder sister."

An Jiamu's heart went through a few quick turns. If what An Ran said was true, this matter would be a bit troublesome. Seeing what the emperor meant, he didn't know about it. Moreover, it was possible to make a woman's life unnoticed. Sent to the inner palace to be a eunuch, and after so many years, no one noticed that the people behind him were just ordinary people.

That's all, what's even more frightening is, what purpose does this person have behind him?Whether Lin Xing is a man or a woman, he is the biggest trouble, and it is an unavoidable trouble.

The dead eunuch is not only troublesome, but also has extraordinary scheming methods. If there is no tacit cooperation between her and An Ran in today's imperial chef competition, I am afraid that Han Zizhang and Liu Hai will not be able to do it. Moreover, I am completely disgusted with her. , I don’t know how many troubles there will be in the future.

The quietness of An's mansion lasted only one night, and the next day, the officials who came to visit surrounded An's mansion. It was not Liu Xi'er who asked people to close the gate, and the mansion must be crowded. The government called over, after all, they were all officials outside, not the cooks, but if the cooks came, who would dare to do this, it was the officials who were unreasonable.

When An Yuan came over and saw this scene, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and told the guard at the door: "Hurry up, open the door, what kind of words does that sound like?"

Liu Xi'er said: "Master, there are people outside."

An Yuan glared: "What are people afraid of? Soldiers come to block you, water comes to cover you, and robbers come, just let the boys copy the guys. Open the door, open the door."

The boy hurriedly opened the door.

As soon as the gate opened, people from outside were about to rush in. An Yuan walked up to greet him and bowed: "My lords, little An Yuan is being polite here. My wife is afraid that it will be difficult to entertain everyone. My lords Why don't you leave a famous post? Another day, our master will visit one by one. Our wife is weak and afraid of noise. If my wife is disturbed, the elder will be annoyed. Maybe I will go somewhere else tonight. When the time comes, No matter how urgent your lords are, it’s useless.”

Everyone, look at me, I look at you, I know what An Yuan said, An Jiamu is not easy to mess with, and he is especially precious to his wife, it is better not to mess with him, if you can't get through here, just follow the path of the servant, where is the servant? No, there is also Wangyue Jintang of Xiaoyao County. Anyway, this culinary art academy cannot be opened in a day or two.

Liu Xi'er left as soon as she saw everyone, and wiped off her sweat: "Oh, I was so scared, this time, so many officials came, I feel dizzy just looking at it."

An Yuan poked him angrily: "It's only a big scene, and I scare you into such a virtue. Follow your wife. There will be more scenes like this in the future. If you are afraid, go back to Jizhou as soon as possible to do odd jobs. It's a disgrace here."

Liu Xi'er: "When I was young, the uncle of the neighbor's family was beaten to death by the official once after going to court. Since then, I have fallen into the root of the disease. I am afraid of the official, but I am not afraid now. I think I don’t think our lords and wives are officials, and these officials came to our house and begged bitterly, don’t be afraid, and won’t be afraid in the future.”

An Yuan: "That's right, our wife is the best chef in the world personally appointed by the emperor, and officials should be polite when they see her."

As soon as An Yuan finished speaking, he saw another official sedan chair approaching, and a middle-aged official came down from it, seeing this man, An Yuan was taken aback, and hurriedly bowed to greet him: "The magistrate is here anyway. "

The person who came was Ji Gongming, the prefect of Jizhou.

Ji Gongming glanced at the gate of the mansion, feeling quite emotional in his heart. At this time last year, in the other courtyard of Anfu, she was just a little girl who was not allowed to be free in Anfu. In just one year, she became the emperor's servant. The number one cook in the world, who was professed by mouth, and became the eldest wife of An's family. It is really a day-to-day situation. Even myself, the prefect of Jizhou, has to take the initiative to come to the door.

Ji Gongming smiled and said: "If you don't come, you can't do it. Jizhou has the best chef in the world. If I, the prefect of Jizhou, don't come, if someone else snatches it, the people of Jizhou won't smash my government office."

An Yuan: "My lord was joking."

Ji Gongming glanced inside: "It seems that it's not easy to disturb today, so please ask Director An to pass a message on my behalf, saying that Ji Gongming will stay in Beijing for a few more days, and if you have something important to see Chef An, please donate." See you soon.”

An Yuan's eyes flickered, and he said in a low voice: "Master Ruo Ji also came to ask about the Culinary Academy, but I heard the master say something to his wife, as if he was going back to Jizhou."

Ji Gongming's eyes lit up. If the culinary art academy opened in Jizhou, then he would not have to worry about his political achievements. His official career would be smooth sailing in the future. He opened his heart and cupped his hands: "Thank you for your advice, the next official will not bother you." Now, I'll go back to Jizhou and wait."

After sending Ji Gongming away, Liu Xier said, "How does the master know that they are all here for the Culinary Academy?"

An Yuan glared at him: "How many times have I taught you? Use your brain when you encounter something, isn't it obvious? This culinary art academy was named by the emperor himself, so it is a certainty, and the emperor poked at the back. Now, where it is opened, it is equivalent to directly reaching the sky, and who knows that our An family has money, here is money, there is a way, and there is no need to talk about official career."

Liu Xi'er patted her thigh: "I said, why are these people swarming into our house? It turns out it's because of my black hat."

An Yuan: "These officials are not the ones who can't afford to be early, if there is no benefit, who would come here, you send these posts to the old man, remember not to disturb the madam."

Liu Xi'er nodded, and ran in with a stack of posts, watching Kong'er who An Ran went to the kitchen to submit the posts.

An Jiamu took it and glanced at it, then put it aside: "Ji Gongming is here too?"

Liu Xi'er laughed and said: "It's really amazing that the elder is talking, Mr. Ji is here. Just after my master said a few words to Mr. Ji, Mr. Ji returned to Jizhou."

An Jiamu laughed: "He's smart."

Just as he was talking, suddenly a servant woman came in from outside: "Go back to the old man, there is a man named Lin Xing outside, who is said to be Madam's fellow villager."

An Jiamu's heart was so sore, he was just thinking about why An Ran ran to the kitchen at this time, but now he realized that he must have known that Lin Xing'er would come over today.At this moment, I couldn't stop him even if I wanted to, so I had to say reluctantly: "Go and invite people over."

Liu Xi'er was stunned for a moment: "What does the Eldest Master mean, please come to the inner courtyard?"

An Jiamu is 1 unhappy, but there is nothing he can do if he is not happy. Even if he doesn't invite her, the dead eunuch has to come in. It should be said that the dead fake eunuch, speaking of it, this eunuch struggled to leave the palace. How did he get to her place? So easy yet.

Just as she was thinking, An Ran heard Xin'er running back: "Is Lin Xing'er here?" Before An Jiamu could say anything, she had already run out.

An Jiamu's heart was sour, it was like pouring a vinegar vat down, didn't he have a lot of time, and saw his wife walking in with that dead eunuch on her arm, with as much affectionate demeanor as she did, she really wanted to kill the dead eunuch The arm on his wife's waist is really an eyesore.

An Jiamu and Lin Xinger's eyes met in the air, and they frowned at the same time.

However, An Ran took Lin Xing's hand and introduced them to the two. The two people who looked at each other hated each other glanced at An Ran at the same time, and nodded politely to each other.

An Jiamu pulled his daughter-in-law over without a trace, and said in a low voice: "Eunuch Lin is in front of the emperor, if others see you are so close, I'm afraid it will cause unnecessary trouble."

An Ran was taken aback for a moment: "Yeah, I forgot this, so let's go into the house quickly." Then she dragged Lin Xing'er into the house, reached the door, poked her head out, and said to An Jiamu: "We have By the way, you go to Jiayan's mansion first." Putting down the words, they disappeared before An Jiamu objected.

An Jiamu was extremely depressed, and suddenly felt that he was not stable now compared to when he was in Jizhou. Lin Xing was not a good guy, and when he saw the two hugging each other through the window, he suddenly had a thought, what is this dead eunuch? It's not a woman, if not, I will suffer a big loss.

But he didn't go to Shilang's mansion, but went to Yue Jintang. After all, Liu Hai is a scourge. Since he made a move, he had to be beaten to death at once. If this dead slave is slowed down, with the queen mother behind him, their troubles will come up.

Not to mention that An Jiamu went to find Yue Jintang, but also that An Ran and Lin Xing'er really met each other this time, and when they entered the house, they hugged each other.

Lin Xing: "You damn girl, I just left the country for a while, why did you disappear? I asked whoever, but no one knew, and they said that you were frying and cooking, and suddenly disappeared, bullshit, When I'm a fool, I believe such nonsense, but I asked your students one by one, and they said so, so I believed it. I found dozens of metaphysics masters and studied it for half a year, but I still didn't come up with it.

My old lady was anxious, and ran into your An family's ancestral hall, wanting to scold your An family's ancestors, why didn't they know how to protect their descendants, as soon as I entered, I saw the kitchen knife box provided by your family, as if there was a light, I wanted to get closer Look more clearly, who would have thought that as soon as I got close, my eyes would go dark, and I would come to this ghostly place and become a eunuch named Lin Xing. I don't know if you are here, let alone how to get back, but it makes me very worried. , but it seems that your ancestors really have Ling, and finally let me find you girl. "

An Ran can fully imagine how anxious Lin Xing was at that time, but suddenly remembered something: "You are not a eunuch, are you?"

Speaking of this, Lin Xing'er frowned: "Fortunately, it's not a eunuch, if it is a eunuch, what will happen to my old lady in the future, I don't know who this Lin Xing'er is, what does a woman go to the palace to be a eunuch? "

An Ran looked at her carefully: "I'm more curious, why you look exactly like him, I remember that your Lin family ancestors used to be some kind of imperial physician, could this Lin Xing be the ancestor of your Lin family."

Lin Xing'er curled her lips: "Forget it, this ancestor is an asshole, it's too embarrassing for the Lin family. Do you know what kind of job this guy was doing when I first came here, dirty guy?"

An Ran was stunned for a moment: "What is dirty work?"

Lin Xing rolled her eyes: "It's the one who cleans the toilets. Not to mention that I made all the toilets in the palace round, and I was bullied every day. It's not that I wanted to hire someone. I changed a job, and now I'm dealing with toilets, okay." Come on, don't talk about this, cook me a good meal, a tooth-beating ceremony, these days in the palace, I am so greedy, what kind of crap is Han Zizhang, he dares to be called the imperial chef, bullshit, but he has an apprentice It's okay."

While talking, Liu Xi'er ran in and replied: "There is a cook named Jiang Yu who is kneeling outside our house right now, begging Madam to see him, but no matter how much he persuades him, he will not go away, saying that he is begging Madam to save him Nephew."

An Ran was taken aback: "Jiang Yu's nephew, isn't he Gu Yongcheng?" Thinking about Han Zizhang, he stood up abruptly and was about to go out.

Lin Xing grabbed her tightly, "Who is Jiang Yu?"

An Ran: "Gu Yongcheng's uncle, a famous chef in Sichuan, thought that Gu Yongcheng was implicated by Han Zizhang. He had no choice but to come to me. Although Gu Yongcheng is Han Zizhang's apprentice, he is different from his master. I can't stand by and watch."
