How is it possible for the princess to come by herself?
Iris looked at Li Xiuzhu resentfully, as if looking at a heartless man.
Yes, it seems that the little guy will definitely not come.
Li Xiuzhu thought for a moment and handed over a chicken drumstick.
"This is my late night snack. It's a bit cold. You guys can warm it up."
"That's all."
Iris was overjoyed when she heard this, and looked at Li Xiuzhu in surprise, extremely happy.
Although the portion is not much, it should be enough to make a difference.
"Thank you, Prince Consort."
Iris happily took the chicken legs and ran away, which made Li Xiuzhu laugh a little.
Good guy, the speed of changing faces is amazing.
Of course, Li Xiuzhu definitely didn't give it to Li Liuli out of kindness.
Just like it is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality.
You can endure the darkness if you never see the light.
Li Xiuzhu didn't believe that Li Liuli could bear not thinking about it after eating such delicious chicken legs.
It is said that this girl is still a foodie, and for a foodie, selling oneself is a very normal thing.
Of course, Cheng Yu’s problem must be solved first.
Love is the most dangerous thing. It can make a person give up his life. If he can give up his life, what does external things mean?
Iris returned to the princess's room. Li Liuli took a glance at it, and when he saw the chicken leg, he immediately rushed over and grabbed it.
"Wow, this tastes amazing."
"I've grown so old and there are delicious things I've never tasted before, woo woo woo."
The iris is numb, but I'm not hot yet.
"Miss, I haven't warmed it up for you yet."
Looking at the chicken drumstick in his hand, Li Liuli felt numb for a moment.
Does this still need to be hot? But there is only one-third of the chicken drumstick left. It would be a big deal to heat it up now, right?
"Wow, wow, it tastes so good when it's cold, I can't imagine how delicious it would be if it was hot."
The more Li Liuli talked, the more distressed he became, but could he still spit out the chewed meat?
Iris didn't know how to answer now.
There's nothing I can do about it, I can only get so much.
"Ahem, if the princess marries the prince-in-law, wouldn't she be able to eat it more often in the future?"
Li Liuli paused for a moment and squinted at Iris.
"Don't say anything like this again."
Iris was also stunned, and she suddenly knew that the princess was not happy to hear it.
It's a pity, what can she do, she can only make insinuations, after all, she is just a servant.
Li Liuli chewed the chicken legs carefully, but in her mind she was thinking about how to eat all kinds of delicious food openly without marrying Li Xiuzhu.
Wait, Li Xiuzhu is cooking in front of others after all. Even if he can keep it secret, the chefs will learn from it secretly.
If that's the case, wouldn't it be possible for the chef of the Fu family to do it?
Hehe, can't it be solved if I just ask the two cooks to go back?
I am a princess, can the Prime Minister refuse me?
At this time, Li Xiuzhu just didn't know what Li Liuli was thinking, otherwise he would laugh out loud.
I really thought he was so eager to learn. He made many of the seasonings by himself. Many of the ingredients used by the chefs were semi-finished products.
Early the next morning, Li Xiuzhu went to Zuixian Tower.
He had been to Zuixian Tower once, but he still felt it was magnificent when he came again.
It is not the vulgar rich gold of later generations, which only appears in palaces and temples. This is grandeur with cultural heritage.
Not only are the dining tables and chairs very elegant, there are also famous calligraphy and paintings hanging on the walls, and the flowers and plant ornaments are also very particular.
Li Xiuzhu arrived early. Zuixian Tower had just opened its doors and the fire hadn't even started yet.
Seeing Li Xiuzhu arriving, the cabinet man at the door was stunned and walked up.
"Is it objectively necessary to eat? It's not even dinner time yet, and we haven't even gotten angry yet."
Li Xiuzhu shook his head when he heard this and asked directly: "Where is the boss of your Zuixian Tower? Can you call him?"
The shopkeeper was immediately shocked and doubtful, and did not dare to say anything harsh. This was in the capital city.
Fortunately, he wasn't afraid either. This Zuixianlou had the backing of the Minister of Household Affairs.
"What are you looking for as your employer...?"
Li Xiuzhu said directly: "It's a good thing, but you can't make the decision in this matter. Go and call someone."
"Here, my boss's house is quite far away from here. You should go and sit in the box first."
"Sanxi, take Objective to the Peony Pavilion and serve a pot of Biluochun."
"Okay!"
As he spoke, a young man in his twenties quickly ran over and saluted Li Xiuzhu.
"Please be objective here."
Li Xiuzhu didn't hesitate and followed the waiter upstairs.
There are not only three pots of peonies in the Peony Pavilion, but also a peony mantle. There are also many peonies in the carvings, which shows that they have been carefully thought out.
"Sit down for a moment and I'll make you some tea."
Li Xiuzhu nodded, and after waiting for a while, the tea came. Before he finished the cup, there was a knock on the door.
After the knock on the door, a chubby foreigner walked in.
Li Xiuzhu was startled when he saw the silk the visitor was wearing.
Also, it is not difficult for the boss of Zuixianlou to get some silk clothes.
Although merchants are normally not allowed to wear silk, they can wear it if it is a gift from an official.
Of course, ordinary employee wear can also be worn outside. Silk is easy to buy. The key is that no one reports it, or the relationship is strong enough, or the career is bright.
"I, Wang Fugui, do you know what to call this young master?"
Li Xiuzhu heard this and said, "Li Xiuzhu, the right minister of the Ministry of Industry."
Wang Fugui's eyes suddenly twitched, "Right Minister of the Ministry of Industry? That is a second-grade official. He is so young, how is it possible?"
"Master, are you kidding me?"
Li Xiuzhu smiled when he heard this.
"This is my official seal."
Immediately the boss believed it. Forging official seals was a crime punishable by the Nine Tribes.
The boss just took one look at it and returned the seal to Li Xiuzhu, making another grand gesture.
"Caomin Wang Fugui has met you, but I don't know why you are here."
When the shopkeeper saw that his bosses were all saluting, he also hurriedly saluted.
"Caomin Liu Xi has met the adults."
Li Xiuzhu glanced at Liu Xi without saying anything, and Wang Fugui immediately understood.
"Liu Xi, please go out first."
"Watch the door and don't let anyone come in at will."
Liu Xi nodded quickly when he heard this.
"The common people should resign."
Although Wang Fugui didn't know what Li Xiuzhu meant, he was not afraid. Behind him was the Minister of Household Affairs.
Seeing Liu Xi go out, Li Xiuzhu took a sip of tea. Wang Fugui was startled as soon as he opened his mouth.
"Master Wang, do you want to be an official?"
Wang Fugui was startled and looked at Li Xiuzhu doubtfully.
"Master Li, what do you mean by this?"
Li Xiuzhu didn't hide it, and said directly: "This is not my intention, but His Majesty's. His Majesty gave me permission to buy and sell official positions."
"Of course, there are only official positions below seventh rank."
"I think the only people who need official positions and have money are merchants like you."
"So I came here to try my luck. Of course, if Boss Wang is not interested, then I won't say anything more and just turn around and leave."
"But you have to know that opportunities are rare. This may be the only opportunity in your life to change your identity."
