Chapter 898： Chef Xiao Zhang

Chapter 898 The cook Xiao Zhang

On this day, Zhu Ping'an had his first independent office in ancient times, not including the one in the Hanlin Academy's Zangshu Pavilion.

Zhu Ping'an's office is located a little to the east of Chang'an Hall. It is a suite of more than 30 square meters.

The windows are bright and clean, sunny and ventilated, and the layout is simple.

There is a wooden painting screen against the wall in the office. On the screen is an embroidered picture of mountains and flowing water. In front of the screen is a set of solid wood office desks and chairs. It is an armchair, and there are museum shelves and bookshelves on both sides of the room. There are several pieces of porcelain and wood carvings on the museum shelves, and the bookshelves are full of Confucian classics such as the Four Books and Five Classics.

Behind the painting screen is a small door. Open the door and you will find the lounge of the suite. The lounge covers an area of ​​about ten square meters, which is about the size of a university dormitory. There is a bed, a cabinet for storing clothes, and a table and chairs facing the window. There is still a lot of space to be rich.

Beds, quilts and other bedding are all brand new and of high quality. Zhu Ping'an can still smell the sunshine from the quilt.

King Yu really put his heart into it...

"This room was tidied up hastily after receiving the imperial father's order yesterday. It is not well prepared, Zihou, what do you think is missing, I will send it over." King Yu led Zhu Pingan around the office. , Said to Zhu Pingan.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your trouble, it's all done." Zhu Pingan shook his head with a smile, and bowed his hands in gratitude.

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

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

The ancients all paid attention to subtlety and euphemism. Zhu Ping'an's witty words with a modern style made King Yu startled at first, and then found it very interesting, so he couldn't help laughing along with Zhu Pingan.

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

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, King Yu was about to discuss some Confucian classics issues with Zhu Pingan when he heard footsteps outside the door, and then a young servant with a white face and no beard hurriedly appeared at the door with an anxious expression on his face. It's like the sky is collapsing and the earth is collapsing, and it's urgent.

"Your Highness."

The waiter bowed at the door to beg to see him, with an anxious expression on his face.

King Yu, whose discussion was interrupted, glanced dissatisfiedly at the waiter at the door, his sword eyebrows were slightly frowned, and felt that the little waiter was too indifferent, couldn't tell the priorities, didn't you see that I was welcoming , Meet the newly-arrived Bachelor of Attendance? Is there anything I can't talk about until I'm done with my work.

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

West courtyard?

King Yu couldn't help but thumped when he saw the hint from the servant.

The steward at the side had been working under King Yu for many years. Knowing King Yu's thoughts better, after seeing King Yu's expression, he stretched out his hand behind his back, and tickled the servant without a trace, signaling him to come in.

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

After hearing what the servant reported, King Yu's face could no longer conceal the nervousness and anxiety in his heart, his brows were tightly frowned, and he became restless. In the room, his heart had already flown to the west, and he looked up at Zhu Pingan, wanting to Stop talking.

King Yu's expression was written all over his face, so there was no need for Zhu Pingan to watch his words.

"Your Highness, there is nothing wrong here in Ping An, so you can deal with the important matters first." Zhu Pingan stood up and persuaded him tactfully.

"Alright, Zihou, you should familiarize yourself with the environment first, and I will hold a banquet at the mansion at noon to welcome you, and introduce all the ministers and workers in the mansion to get acquainted with you. Liu Guanshi, you are here to serve you well, so don't neglect me. thick."

King Yu nodded his head in remonstrance almost as soon as Zhu Ping'an finished speaking, said something to Zhu Pingan, arranged for Guanshi Liu to meet Zhu Pingan, and then hurriedly followed the servant to the west courtyard of the palace.

"Congratulations, Your Highness."

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

History is not a fake book

Zhu Pingan looked at King Yu's back, couldn't help but hooked the corners of his lips slightly, and said four words silently.

It is recorded in history that King Yu was lustful, but seeing him today, it is as expected.

Although the servant just whispered in King Yu's ear, other people couldn't hear it at all, but who made Zhu Ping'an know how to speak. The servant's whispered report just now was read by Zhu Ping'an.

King Yu's back house is on fire.

What the servant told me just now is that the princess discovered the chef Mrs. Zhang who was hidden by His Royal Highness, and she found the reason for the theft of the kitchen. .

Kitchen hidden beauty

Ha ha

In ancient times, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty kept his beauty in the golden house. King Yu came here to hide his beauty in a kitchen. King Yu is really unique.

Although the waiter didn't say much, Zhu Pingan knew that there must be a dog-blood drama between King Yu and the cook Xiao Zhang from the anxious look of King Yu just now, but he didn't know why King Yu came to a kitchen to hide his beauty , Wouldn't it be better to directly bring it into the palace.

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

open branches and scattered leaves

Propagate the royal blood

This is such a legitimate reason. Under this righteousness, I believe that even if Princess Yu is jealous and wears a small shoe, she will not dare to beat the board and drive her out of the house like today.

Therefore, there must be a **** drama in the middle.

Zhu Ping'an's guess is right. There is really a **** drama between King Yu and the cook Xiao Zhang.

That was half a year ago. Suffering from insufficient funds, King Yu and Princess Ning An were considering opening a pastry shop outside the palace, thinking of earning 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 himself to bury his father.

It was the first time I saw the scene in the novel, King Yu couldn’t help but stepped forward to watch curiously.

Then, Xiao Zhang's Lihua cried with rain about a tragic life experience: a sixteen-year-old girl got married in the reluctance and blessing of her old father. Day and night, she took care of her seriously ill husband, meticulously, but after less than a month of marriage, her husband passed away. Her husband's family said she was a coward, and called her a vixen. The property was taken as her own, and she was kicked out of the house. After returning to her mother's house, her old father passed away again.

It is true that those who hear it are sad, and those who see it cry.

The strong desire to protect the big 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 those gangsters who watched and molested Xiao Zhang, and paid a lot of money to help Xiao Zhang bury his old father.

At night, Mrs. Zhang, who was more filial and prettier, was so touched that she offered her body to King Yu.

The next day, King Yu asked Mrs. Zhang to take her back to the palace as a concubine, but was persuaded by the servants around him, reminding Mr. Yu that Mrs. Zhang is a widow, how can a prince take a widow into the harem? , if someone finds out, the spittle of the censor and the rotten scholars can drown His Highness. Wouldn't it disappoint the Holy One and make King Jing happy?

After hearing this, King Yu hesitated for a long time, and brought Mrs. Zhang back to the palace, but instead of accepting her as a concubine, he arranged for him to be in the back kitchen, temporarily using the cover of the cook as a cover, and prepared to take pictures slowly.

However, after all, paper cannot contain fire. King Yu went to the back kitchen to have private meetings with Xiao Zhang too many times, but the princess still found out.
