Imperial Chef Rookie

I took the carriage back to my place and entered the garden. On the way, I passed the master's room and found that the lights in his room were still on. Just thinking about whether to go in and greet me, when I stood at the door and hesitated to knock or not, he opened the door first.

"Now...you're back?" It seems that the master didn't expect that head-on collision would hit me. He was a little embarrassed and seemed to be waiting for me deliberately.

"Yes, Master, do you have anything to do with me?" I said respectfully.

"Just, do you remember when you entered the palace last time, you told me that you wanted to know the cause of your father's death? I thought about whether to tell you for a long time, and I still think you should have the right to know. Master come in, let's sit and talk."

The master seemed to have made a lot of determination before deciding to tell me and called me into the room.

When he closed the door, I sat at the table and watched the candle sway, so I am determined to know whether this history is good or bad for me?

"Now, you only know that your father is Daqi's master chef, but do you know that he was also the prime minister of that big Yan?"

When I heard him say this sentence, I immediately felt that the five thunders were blasting, and the whole person was greatly affected.

The master glanced at me, slowly walked to the window, and began to chatter, and my thoughts seemed to slowly return to the past as the master said...

It turned out that the master and my father were friends who grew up together. They were both officials and later became brothers of the same division.

He said that my father was very talented since childhood, as if there were nothing in this world he wouldn't know. In his impression, my father's life has always been smooth. When he was twenty years old, he became the youngest prime minister in the history of Dayan.

It is a pity that the good times are not long. Three years later, Daqi led his troops to attack Dayan, and the army pressed the border. The country was not strong enough to be defeated and was eventually destroyed by Daqi.

Seeing the sad look of the master, recalling this past must have made him uncomfortable.

Later, the emperor and the remaining ministers led the people of Dayan to the south, and waited for the opportunity to recover the country of Yan and return to their homeland. But this great Qi national strength is strong, how easy is it to overturn it? So the emperor ordered that he and my dad go to the teacher to learn art, so as to mix into the imperial dining room in the palace to assassinate the emperor of Daqi, and regain the throne and territory for Dayan.

Everyone pinned the hope of finally recovering Dayan on them.

In this way, they began to learn art from a master. It was at that time that I met the daughter of Gao Ren, their little sister, my mother-in-law, Gu Xin.

The master said that when they saw my mother's first face, they both liked her at the same time. The days when the three of them learned art together was the best time in his whole life. When I mentioned my mother, the master's eyes had a little more tenderness that was usually rare, and the tone of speech gradually calmed down.

After that, they studied with the master for two years. In those two years, he performed mediocre, but my father was very talented in cooking and won the appreciation of the master, and won the heart of my mother.

Therefore, the master gave my mother Xu to my father. Although he was unwilling, he and my dad were close friends. How could he destroy them, so he chose to bless them silently.

When the master said this, I suddenly realized why he hadn't married a wife or concubine for so many years. It turned out that he always had my mother in his heart. I continue to listen carefully to him continue to talk down.

The master took a sip of tea and continued to speak.

After my father and mother became married, the master always persuaded my father to give up the idea of ​​revenge and took my mother away to fly high. But every time at this time, they will make the two unhappy, and finally disappointed. My dad said that the master was not thinking about Shu and forgot his original purpose of coming here.

And he knew that my father always remembered the mission of recovering Dayan in his heart. As Dayan's prime minister, he could not let go of the country's hatred.

But Master, the longer he stays here, the more he feels that everything has become a thing of the past and belongs to the dust. He didn't want to provoke any more wars, and he didn't want to break this hard-won tranquility.

"Master, how did my father get killed later?" I couldn't bear my curiosity and began to question.

"Yeah, I didn't persuade you to move your father after all. But I couldn't bear to leave him alone to take risks, which was too unkind. So I had to go into the palace with him, he had excellent cooking skills, and it didn't take long. Became a celebrity beside the emperor."

"What about you?"

"My cooking skills at that time were only suitable for being a chef in the royal dining room. That year, when he saw the time was right, he insisted on poisoning the emperor's meal. After I knew it, I had been discouraging him from giving up, even if he could put duyao. It’s foolproof to integrate with the meal. But what if you fail, what should you do if you are pregnant? But he will do it alone. Sure enough, the people around Emperor Daqi have already begun to doubt him. Eventually, he failed to assassinate, and the emperor ordered Zhao to order him Go all over, and kill all the southern swallow gangs together. Fortunately, your mother had already escaped. I was also lucky enough to escape the disaster, and then I could not bear the imagination. You will know what happened later."

After I heard him tell me everything, I still couldn't believe it. My father turned out to be the great Yancheng prime minister who had been wiped out? ! Have you ever been assassinated? ! There were bursts of numbness in my head, which was also quite legendary.

The master saw that I was dumb and dumb, and then said:

"I know you might not believe it, but this is really what happened that year. Although eighteen years have passed, I still remember it. I only decided to tell you today because of the recent changes in the wind, Dayan’s old men assembled in secret. It was only then that the minister took away his escape from the minister, and also the high prince’s prince, so the master had to remind you to be careful, don’t get involved again, and repeat your father’s mistake!

I seem to understand the master's words, shouldn't all the previous grudges be settled?

"Master, although my father died in the hands of Emperor Daqi, but those political things are after all the past, my mother certainly did not want me to participate, let alone 18 years have passed, why they Still can't let go?"

The master looked at me and sighed.

"Ah~ I also hope that some things will pass into dust sooner, but it is destined to escape. I'm afraid that His Royal Highness will come to you. You still have to be careful."

"I don't know His Royal Highness, why did he come to me? Even if he comes to me, I will not be with him, Master, rest assured." I said to the Master firmly.

"By the way, Master, my mother is here in Beijing. I live there in Weiqi. Tomorrow I want to take a leave to accompany her to go outside."

"What?! Your mother came to Beijing? When did you come!"

His attention was clearly attracted by my words, and his eyes suddenly brightened.

Puff~ Master, is it necessary to exaggerate? I watched him as excited as he was in the same place. It is normal to think that they haven't seen each other for almost 18 years. He was very excited to hear the news.

"Yes, Master my mother is here, just arrived yesterday, that, my fake... Do you agree?"

"What should I wear when I see her? Should I meet her someday? Ah... you said your fake, you answered, yes, remember to tell your mother tomorrow, I invited her to come to me for dinner, I personally cook to catch the wind and dust for her."

The master has now forgotten the slightly heavy topic just now. What he replaced now is the joy of his reunion with my mother.

I was so happy to see him that the words were almost the same, so there was no need to stay here again. After saying goodbye to him, I went back to my room.

I returned to my room and lay quietly in bed. Recalling what the master told me tonight, all this is so incredible. It turns out that the real cause of my father's death was this. Should I revenge? No, those things have become a thing of the past. Even if I went to avenge my revenge, when will the grievances be reported? Besides, I still have two people who need to be guarded. Now that I have heard of this past, let it go with the wind.

The next day, Wei Qi sent someone to the master's place. The master told me to take Xu Mo and Xuan'er together, and they were too busy for a long time to go out. So the carriage drove us to the gate of Weifu. I introduced them to Wei Qi and Niang and told them about my master. She was surprised at first, and then she was happy to say that one day she must visit her Old friend.

Taking advantage of a few chats between us, Wei Qi said that there is a temple near this capital city, and there are beautiful scenery around this temple. We can go and see it together. My mother also worshipped Buddha sincerely on weekdays and listened to Wei Qi’s suggestion. Then she readily agreed.

The air outside the city was exceptionally fresh in the morning, and the birds cicadas crowed. Several of us laughed and laughed in the carriage of Weifu, the atmosphere was very harmonious.

After a while, we arrived at the temple where Wei Qi said. Despite its remote location, the temple is not small in size, standing on a mountain with a strong incense.

We had a meal in the temple and we decided to go outside the temple.

"Wei Qi, where are we going now?"

The trees here are leafy, I look very strange, how did he know?

Wei Qi turned and said to me:

"Behind this temple mountain, there is a large lake, the lake water shows different colors all the year round, when the weather is fine, you can even see the colorful light shining on the lake. Exactly, I brought the goddess over to see the beautiful scenery. I was so happy that the goddess was satisfied and Qi'er was also happy. We are worthwhile."

"Qi'er is really a good boy with a heart. The goddess really saw you right..."

My mother's words hadn't been finished yet, and suddenly two or three black-faced masked men jumped out of the nearby woods, carrying large swords, and their eyes were cold and fierce.

At first glance, the three people knew that the person was not good. They stood on three sides, so they surrounded us.

The author has something to say:

In the next chapter, the fox showed up, and it turned out that he knew the people but didn't know the heart~ Little angels are still welcome to comment. (Why (duyao) will be dropped by the river crab too???? crying laughing.)
