Chapter 898 Chef Xiao Zhang


Chapter 898 Cook Mrs. Xiao Zhang

On this day, Zhu Pingan had his first independent office in ancient times, not counting the one in the Hanlin Academy library.

Zhu Ping'an's office is located a little east of Chang'an Hall. It is a suite of more than thirty square meters.

The windows are bright and clean, facing the sun and ventilating, and the layout is simple.

There is a wood-carved painting screen against the wall of the office. On the screen is an embroidered picture of mountains and flowing water. A set of solid wood office desks and chairs are placed in front of the screen. On the table are the four treasures of the study, a pen washer, a pen note, and a pen holder. There are several pieces of porcelain and wood carvings on the museum shelves, and the bookshelves are filled with Confucian classics such as the Four Books and Five Classics.

Behind the screen is a small door, which opens into the suite's lounge. The lounge covers an area of ​​about ten square meters, about the same size as a university dormitory. There is a bed, a cabinet for storing clothes, and a set of tables and chairs facing the window. There is still a lot of space and plenty of space.

The beds, quilts and other bedding are all available. They are all brand new and of high quality. Zhu Pingan can also smell the smell of sunshine coming from the quilts.

King Yu is really attentive...

“This room was hastily tidied up after receiving the emperor’s decree yesterday. The preparations were insufficient. Zihou, look what’s missing. I'll have someone send it over." Prince Yu led Zhu Pingan around the office and said to Zhu Pingan.

"Thank you for your highness, it's already complete." Zhu Ping'an smiled and shook his head, bowed his hands and thanked her.

"Zihou, don't be polite." King Yu helped Zhu Ping'an up.

"Don't worry, Your Highness, Ping'an will never be polite when it's time to open your mouth." Zhu Ping'an straightened up and replied with a smile.

The ancients were all about subtlety and euphemism. Zhu Pingan's humorous words with a modern style made King Yu startled at first, and then found it very interesting. He couldn't help but laugh along with Zhu Pingan.

Laughter narrowed the distance between the two, and the atmosphere in the room suddenly became familiar.

After chatting for a while, King Yu was about to discuss some Confucian issues with Zhu Pingan when he heard footsteps outside the door, and then a young servant with a white face and a beard hurriedly appeared at the door. , there was a look of urgency on his face, as if the sky was falling and the earth was falling, and he was in a great hurry.

"Your Highness."

The chamberlain bowed at the door and begged to see him, looking anxious.

Prince Yu, who was interrupted in the discussion, glanced at the chamberlain at the door with a dissatisfied look on his face, his sword eyebrows slightly wrinkled, he felt that the little chamberlain was so expressionless that he couldn't distinguish priorities and priorities, no? Did you see that I am welcoming and receiving the new lecturer who has entered the palace? If there is anything I can't talk about until I am done with my work here.

The chamberlain was glanced at by King Yu dissatisfiedly, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and his right hand on his waist quietly pointed to the west.

Western courtyard?

King Yu couldn't help but feel a little thump in his heart when he saw the hint from the chamberlain.

The steward on the side has been working for King Yu for many years, and he understands King Yu's thoughts better. After seeing King Yu's expression, he stretched out his hand behind his back, and made a subtle hook to the chamberlain, beckoning him to come in. .

Seeing this, the chamberlain rushed in and whispered in King Yu's ear.

After hearing what the chamberlain reported, King Yu’s face could no longer hide the tension and anxiety in his heart. His brows were furrowed, and he became restless. He was indoors, and his heart had flown to the west. He looked up He glanced at Zhu Ping'an and stopped talking.

Prince Yu’s expression was written all over his face, and Zhu Pingan didn’t need to watch his words anymore.

"Your Highness, there is nothing going on here. You can go and deal with important matters first." Zhu Pingan stood up and persuaded.

“That’s fine, Zihou, please familiarize yourself with the surroundings first. At noon, I will hold a banquet at the house to welcome you and introduce you to the ministers and ministers in the house. Manager Liu, you are here to serve me well. Come on, don't neglect it "Thick."

Prince Yu nodded in response almost as soon as Zhu Pingan finished speaking, said something to Zhu Pingan, arranged for Manager Liu to meet Zhu Pingan, and then hurriedly followed the chamberlain to the palace. Go to the west courtyard.

"Farewell to Your Highness."

Zhu Ping'an cupped his hands and watched King Yu leave.

Shi Bu Fake Book

Zhu Ping'an looked at King Yu's back, couldn't help but slightly curled his lips, and said four words silently.

History records that King Yu was lustful, but when I saw him today, it turned out to be true.

Although the chamberlain just whispered in King Yu's ear and no one else could hear it, who made Zhu Ping'an know how to lip read. Zhu Ping'an read the report that the chamberlain just whispered.

Prince Yu’s back house is on fire.

What the chamberlain just reported is that the princess discovered that the cook Xiao Zhang was hidden by His Highness, and found out the reason why the kitchen was stolen. She wanted to beat the cook Xiao Zhang thirty times and sell the cook Xiao Zhang to the palace. .

The kitchen hides the beauties

Hehe

In ancient times, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty hid his beauties in the golden house. King Yu came to hide his beauties in the kitchen. King Yu was really unique.

Although the chamberlain didn't say much, seeing how worried King Yu was just now, Zhu Ping'an knew that there must be a bloody drama between King Yu and the cook Xiao Zhang, but he didn't know why King Yu If you want to hide your beauty in a kitchen, wouldn't it be better to bring her directly into the palace?

In ancient times, it was normal to have three wives and four concubines, let alone a prince like King Yu.

Spreading branches and spreading leaves

Propagating the royal bloodline

This is such a legitimate reason. Under this righteousness, I believe that even if Princess Yu is jealous, she will wear small shoes. I don't dare to rush out of the house like today.

So, there must be a bloody drama in the middle.

Zhu Ping'an's guess was right. There was really a bloody drama between King Yu and the cook, Xiao Zhang, that was not known to outsiders.

That was half a year ago. King Yu was suffering from lack of funds, and he and Princess Ning'an were considering opening a pastry shop outside the palace, hoping to make some money to subsidize the expenses of the palace.

Once when I was inspecting a pastry shop in Qihuamen, I met this little Zhang who sold his body to bury his father.

Seeing the scene in the novel for the first time, King Yu couldn't help but curiously stepped forward to watch. It didn't matter, he was immediately attracted by the charming little Zhang's pear blossoms, so charming and touching that I felt pity for them. Attracted by her pretty appearance.

Then, Xiao Zhang’s Lihua cried with rain and told a miserable life experience: a sixteen-year-old girl got married with the reluctance and blessing of her old father. After getting married, she served her parents-in-law and served tea. water, doing housework diligently, day and night, taking care of her seriously ill husband, taking care of every detail , but unfortunately, her husband passed away less than a month after she got married. Her husband’s family called her a naughty wife and called her a vixen. They ignored her and even ignored her. Her uncle also took her husband’s property as his own and kicked her out. After leaving home and returning to my parents' home, my old father passed away again.

It really makes those who hear it sad and those who see it shed tears.

The strong protective desire of a man in King Yu's heart was instantly aroused by Xiao Zhang's miserable life experience.

Protect her

I want to protect her

King Yu drove away the gangsters who were watching and teasing Xiao Zhang, and paid a lot of money to help Xiao Zhang bury her old father. .

At night, Mrs. Zhang, who was even more beautiful in her filial piety, was so moved that she offered herself to Prince Yu in return. In order to repay her kindness, Mrs. Zhang tried her best in bed, making Prince Yu feel happy.

The next day, King Yu asked Xiao Zhang to take her back to the palace and take her as his concubine, but the servants around him tried hard to persuade him, reminding King Yu that Xiao Zhang was a widow, how could a prince do that? Taking the widow into the harem, if anyone knew about it, His Highness would be flooded with the spit of the censor and corrupt scholars. Wouldn't it disappoint the Holy Emperor and please King Jing?

After hearing this, King Yu hesitated. After a long time, Xiao Zhang was brought back to the palace, but she was not made a concubine. Instead, she was arranged to enter the back kitchen and temporarily used the guise of a cook as a cover to prepare for her plans.

However, paper cannot cover the fire after all. King Yu went to the kitchen to have private meetings with Xiao Zhang many times, but he was still discovered by the princess. (End of this chapter)
