Chapter 75 You have to taste it

Dugu Ziyan's study room in the Marquis of Wending.

Du Chuan bowed and replied, "Criminal, this is news from the northern border."

Dugu Ziyan, who was reading a book with his head down, took the letter after hearing this: "When you pass by the wind, you will never live."

Du Chuan continued: "Yes, prince, this Xiao Hengyu actually had such a plan. I heard that the fight on the spot was very fierce, and there were many masters, but they didn't gain the upper hand and ended like this in the end."

Dugu Ziyan continued: "Xiao Hengyu is the next successor of the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion. Don't forget that there is another Xiao Jinxi."

"Criminal, what are we going to do next?" Du Chuan asked.

Dugu Ziyan seemed to have not heard it, staring at the letter in his hand and keeping looking...

Du Chuan, who was standing beside him, looked at him in confusion, and did not dare to disturb him again.

After a long time, Dugu Ziyan said with concern: "Du Chuan, let Mei Xue and Meiying be more vigilant and must protect the safety of the young lady."

Du Chuan said in confusion: "Criminal, what's wrong?"

Dugu Ziyan frowned and said, "Du Chuan, if it was the work of Emperor Mingxi this time, the hidden power behind Emperor Mingxi is not simple! According to this news, although this group of people have high martial arts skills, they are not well-trained dead soldiers. Because of this, they will suffer losses from Xiao Hengyu. However, in addition to the royal secret guards, Emperor Mingxi can also send so many masters in secret. It seems that we all underestimate Emperor Mingxi."

Du Chuan was shocked when he heard this: "Criminal, then should we tell the eldest lady this news?"

Dugu Ziyan nodded and replied, "You have to find a good way to avoid Emperor Mingxi's eyes and ears. You can't let Emperor Mingxi know that we have noticed this matter, so let me think about it again."

After a while, Dugu Ziyan asked, "Has Miss sent Qiaoer out to buy it this month?"

"No, prince." Du Chuan replied after hearing this.

Dugu Ziyan immediately took out a small letter and wrote it. After writing, he sealed it with beeswax and handed it to Du Chuan: "You immediately arrange for someone to stay outside the palace. When you see Qiaoer come out to buy it, secretly give it to her and make sure to hand it to the eldest lady in person."

"Yes, the prince." Du Chuan took the letter and bowed and retreated.

Dugu Ziyan is alone in the study. At this moment, Dugu Ziyan feels extremely regretful... Yan'er, my brother should have firmly opposed you entering the palace. Emperor Mingxi's methods were so cruel. The two founding marquis mansions were already the thorns in his eyes. Now that he attacked Xiao Hengyu, how could the Wending Marquis Mansion escape? Now, you are in the deep palace, what should my brother do to you?

Drunk immortals in the kitchen.

"Auntie, can you see if I cut this way?" Xiao Gu, who was dressed as a maid, asked a middle-aged cook.

"Not bad, little girl, your knife skills are really good!" The middle-aged cook couldn't help but praise him when he saw it.

"Hey, aunt, as long as you think it's good, it's far worse than you." Xiaogu replied with a smile.

"Little girl, do you often cook at home?" asked the middle-aged cook.

"There's no way, aunt, poor children have long been in the family, and their parents have long been gone. You have to do it yourself to fill your stomach!" Xiaogu replied.

"Yes, not bad, little girl, your knife skills are the best among all temporary kitchens. What's your name?" asked the middle-aged cook.

"Auntie, call me Xiaogu." Xiaogu responded with a smile.

"Oh, Xiaogu, cut the meat too." The middle-aged cook ordered.

"Okay! Auntie, let's cut it now." Xiaogu took the meat and replied with a smile.

After a moment, Xiaogu, who was cutting meat, took the opportunity to say, "Auntie, this Zuixianju will only find some helpers during festivals. This time Xiaogu can only help here for seven days. Xiaogu really wants to stay here forever, so that he can have a full meal every day. You are so good, so you are happy to be with you."

I saw the middle-aged cook who was busy and said, "Auntie understands that it is not easy to find a stable job outside, and the wages are also small. But the aunt really can't help you with this."

Xiaogu continued to say unremittingly: "Auntie, can you think of a solution for me? In this way, Xiaogu will give you half of the salary you will receive in the future. Xiaogu just needs to have a full meal every day and have a place to shelter from the wind and rain to sleep. Others that don't require much."

The middle-aged cook lowered his voice and said, "Xiao Gu, it's not that the aunt refused to help you. Do you know that our Zuixianju is the property of Prince Gong today. General Manager Jiang is very cautious in hiring people. Only when we are too busy during festivals will we hire a few helpers temporarily. We have been here for many years. At that time, Auntie, I also came here for five years and worked as a temporary helper for five years before being left here by General Manager Jiang. The aunt heard that we were left behind and we had investigated us before General Manager Jiang."

"Ah, it's so strict!" Xiaotani said in surprise.

"That's right. Although Prince Gong ignores the affairs of the court, he is the prince after all. General Manager Jiang naturally needs to be careful." The middle-aged cook continued, "So, the aunt has no choice."

Xiaogu continued to think, "Oh, okay, Xiaogu's life is bad, and he doesn't have such a blessing to stay. Auntie, if you still find a helper in the future, can you tell Xiaogu? At least Xiaogu can have a full meal occasionally."

"Okay, if you want someone again, the aunt will tell you, Xiaogu, you are good at doing things, and the aunt likes it." The middle-aged cook replied with a smile.

Xiao Gu said happily in an instant: "Hey, thank you aunt, you are the reincarnation of Guanyin Bodhisattva!"

The middle-aged cook laughed and said, "Haha... Look at your sweet mouth."

Drunk immortals and stay in Meixiang Pavilion.

Prince Gong fiddled with the wine utensils and asked, "What can't be found on Linfengdu?"

Jiang Mu bowed and replied, "Yes, Prince, our people only know that the fight on the spot was very fierce, but more people are still not known and are still investigating."

I heard Prince Gong say, "The Wu'an Marquis Mansion is not simple! There is Xiao Jinxi and Xiao Hengyu."

Jiang Mu responded after hearing this: "Yes, the family of military generals for a hundred years is always different."

Murong An smiled and said, "It's a pity that our Emperor Mingxi can't tolerate sand. Let's not worry, let them fight well first."

Jiang Mu bowed and replied, "Yes, the prince."

Then he continued: "Your Majesty, the things you have prepared there are almost all. The hundred-year-old ginseng specially prepared by the prince can be delivered in two days, and then I will send it together."

Prince Gong Murong An, who was lowering his head and fiddling with wine utensils, said after hearing this: "Okay, Jiang Mu, you must check everything carefully before sending it over."

Jiang Mu bowed and replied, "Don't worry, my subordinates know."

I saw Prince Gong Murong An, smiled and said, "It's so fast! It's the Dragon Boat Festival again! I don't know if she's okay..." At this moment, Prince Gong Murong An had a deep longing in his eyes...

Jiang Mu looked at it and comforted him unbearably, "Prince, don't worry, our people are paying attention. If there is anything there, I will tell you as soon as possible."

"I understand, you go down first." Murong An answered softly.

Jiang Mu bowed helplessly and retreated.

I saw Murong An still fiddling with the wine utensils in front of him. After a long time, Fang picked up a glass of wine, took a sip, smiled slightly, and said softly: "You like plum wine the most. I have given it a lot this year, so you have to try it."
