Transformed into a vicious concubine? Being led by the eldest sister is annoying

As soon as Emperor Xuanwu and Eunuch Li stepped into Tongfu Restaurant, they were immediately attracted by the environment inside the restaurant.

The spacious and bright hall with neatly arranged solid wood tables and chairs exudes a light wood fragrance, making people feel particularly comfortable.

Emperor Xuanwu nodded with satisfaction and was quite impressed with this place.

At this time, the waiter noticed them and came over to greet them warmly.

"Dear guests, welcome to Tongfu Restaurant! Would you like to sit in the lobby on the first floor or in the private room on the second floor?"

Emperor Xuanwu chose the private room without hesitation.

He hopes to have a quiet place to rest and enjoy delicious food.

The waiter immediately understood and respectfully took them upstairs to private room number five.

After entering the private room, the waiter enthusiastically introduced the restaurant's food and talked endlessly about the characteristics of various signature dishes.

Emperor Xuanwu smiled, waved his hand and said, "Serve all the signature dishes."

When the waiter heard this, he was completely stunned.

After being stunned for a moment, he quickly reminded: "Sir, you two can't eat so many dishes, why don't you order a few less!"

Such remarks not only surprised Eunuch Li, but even Emperor Xuanwu found them very novel.

Emperor Xuanwu asked curiously, "Why are there still people advising customers to order less? The more they order, the more money your restaurant will make, right?"

The waiter looked at them with amusement and patiently explained, "You ordered too much. It's a waste if you can't finish it. Just order as much as you can eat."

Emperor Xuanwu and Eunuch Li looked at each other. It was the first time they heard such a statement.

Emperor Xuanwu became more and more curious and asked, "Who stipulated this?"

The waiter smiled proudly and said, "It was stipulated by our boss. Our boss is very kind and has opened a girls' school. All the girls in Guanzhou can study there. There are also girls from other cities who come here specifically to study."

After hearing this, Emperor Xuanwu secretly admired it in his heart.

The fourth young lady of the Bai family really gives people surprises everywhere!

He was even more happy for his fifth son.

I wish I could have a woman like this by my side for the rest of my life.

This county lord’s title was not unfair at all.

Eunuch Li knew that the Emperor wanted to know more about Fourth Miss Bai, so he started to inquire with the waiter.

He took a step forward, with a kind smile on his face, and said to the waiter: "Young man, your employer's girls' school is a great thing. Can you tell us more about your employer?"

The waiter saw that the two guests seemed very interested in his boss, and his pride grew even stronger.

"Sir, our boss is a very kind person. Not only does she run a girls' school, but she also takes good care of us servants. She often comes to the restaurant to check on us, and every time she comes, she cares about our lives. If anyone has difficulties at home, the boss will help them."

Emperor Xuanwu nodded slightly, and his impression of Bai Qianqian improved a little bit.

"So what do they teach in this girls' school?"

The waiter scratched his head, thought for a moment and said, "I heard from the girls who went to the academy that they were taught literacy, arithmetic, needlework, kung fu and so on. Anyway, the purpose was to let girls learn skills, so that they would have the confidence to get married or do other things in the future."

Emperor Xuanwu and Eunuch Li asked some other questions about Bai Qianqian and Guanzhou, and the waiter answered them one by one.

During the conversation, Emperor Xuanwu felt more and more that Guanzhou was full of vitality and vigor under the governance of Prince Chen and Bai Qianqian.

After a while, the dishes were served one after another.

The signature dishes with good appearance, aroma and taste are placed on the table, which greatly increases people's appetite.

The waiter quietly left the private room with a look of pride on his face.

In the private room, Emperor Xuanwu looked at the table full of delicious food, feeling filled with emotion.

He turned to look at Eunuch Li and sighed, "Old Li, it seems that I was right to agree to open a girls' school."

When Eunuch Li heard this, he immediately smiled and started to flatter the emperor: "Your Majesty is wise! Your decisions have always been far-sighted. The establishment of this girls' school will not only give the girls in Guanzhou the opportunity to study, but also set an example for girls all over the world."

Emperor Xuanwu burst into laughter at what Eunuch Li said.

He pointed to the seat next to him and said, "Old Li, come, sit down and eat with me."

Eunuch Li was flattered and thanked him quickly, then sat down obediently.

Looking at the delicious food on the table, Eunuch Li couldn't help but recall the time when he was young and traveled around with Emperor Xuanwu, who was still the Crown Prince.

He narrowed his eyes slightly and fell into memory: "Your Majesty, when I think back to those days when I followed you around, those days were truly carefree and free."

Emperor Xuanwu was also reminded of his past. He nodded and said, "Yes, at that time I was still the crown prince and had no worries."

The two of them ate while reminiscing about the past, and the atmosphere was warm and harmonious.

As they chatted, the topic turned to the story of Emperor Xuanwu who had fallen in love with a commoner woman.

Emperor Xuanwu's eyes became a little blurry.

He said slowly, "When I was traveling among the common people, I fell in love with a girl. She was gentle, kind, beautiful and charming, and I fell in love with her at first sight. Unfortunately, before I, who was still the crown prince at the time, could express my feelings, the girl was about to get married. I wanted to ask her out, but something unexpected happened in the palace, so I had to return to the palace in a hurry."

Speaking of this, a trace of regret and melancholy appeared on Emperor Xuanwu's face.

After so many years, he still felt bad every time he thought of that girl. That was the first time he fell in love with a girl when he was young, and that pure feeling has always been deeply buried in his heart.

Eunuch Li looked at the emperor's expression and felt a little emotional.

He said softly: "Your Majesty, this may be destiny. However, you are the emperor now and you own the world. Let the past be the past."

Emperor Xuanwu sighed slightly and said, "Yes, let the past be the past. But sometimes when I think about it, I still feel a little regretful."

The two were silent for a moment, then continued eating and talked about other topics.

But the image of that commoner woman lingered in Emperor Xuanwu's heart for a long time.

After a while, Emperor Xuanwu seemed to come back to his senses from his memories.

He looked at the dishes on the table, picked up a piece and tasted it, then nodded and praised: "The dishes at this Tongfu Restaurant are really delicious."

It's comparable to those in Beijing.

It’s no wonder that Bai Aiqing loves his younger brother so much.

Eunuch Li also quickly agreed: "Your Majesty is right, Guanzhou is really full of surprises."

Emperor Xuanwu put down his chopsticks and said thoughtfully, "I came out this time and saw that Guanzhou was so prosperous under the governance of Prince Chen and Bai Qianqian. I was very pleased."

"It's all thanks to the Emperor's wisdom!" Eunuch Li began to praise him.

Emperor Xuanwu smiled and pointed at Eunuch Li.
