After being forced into the palace, I became the tyrant's favorite

Seeing the child blinking, Li Quan suddenly felt amused and couldn't help teasing him: "What? Could it be that you have an opinion?"

"I, what can I have an opinion on?" Chang San was so frightened that he almost bit his tongue, and even shook his head like a táo, which didn't make Li Quan happy enough. Have such a playful side?

He thought in his heart that the clothes he was wearing while staring at him were the guard uniforms he had found for him.

The child is not tall, and usually wears light colors, and looks like a fourteen or fifteen-year-old child, but now he looks a bit mature in a dark cardigan.

Some baby fat faces are still immature.

"Is there really no objection?" You deliberately got closer to him.

Seeing the other party approaching, Chang San subconsciously took a step back, and accidentally fell into the small pool behind him. He opened his arms suddenly and was ready to fall into the cold water. After a while, he still didn't feel any coolness, and then After a while, there was still no icy coldness, and then he realized that something was wrong.

There is an extra hand at the waist!

That arm was attached to his waist. Chang San didn't wear much but it wasn't too thin. He could feel the strength of that arm around his waist. He opened his eyes suddenly, and immediately met the man's falcon-like eyes. .

"You, you, you, you—" He immediately widened his eyes, but Li Quan laughed out loud.

"The child stands firm, and I won't be by my side next time. Not everyone has my kindness."

"I, I, I—" Chang San suddenly stammered, and whispered softly: "Thank you Brother Li, Brother Li, don't, don't laugh at me."

Come on, don't make people angry.

Li Quan let go of him, and said solemnly: "Go out of the palace, don't make the young master wait too long."

It was only then that Chang San wondered and followed the other party's footsteps.

Wen Yao asked Liu Qing to go to Jishang to buy the necessary ingredients. They had made agreements with several shops before, and if they had goods, they would supply them to the people's restaurants as soon as possible.

At the beginning, Zhou Yun went to negotiate, and after negotiating with Wen Yao, the price he offered was very fair, and as time passed, he developed into a long-term partner.

When Liu Qing came back with Kong Wu, he ran into Chang San who had just got off the carriage at the door, the two greeted each other, and Chang San nodded to them with a clever smile on his face.

Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly saw Li Quan coming out behind Chang San.

"Brother Li is here?"

Li Quan nodded, it was only then that Liu Qing realized that he was different from the past, and after a closer look, he found out where the problem was.

It turned out to be the bright yellow scroll in the other party's hand. It seemed familiar, as if I had seen it somewhere before, but I couldn't remember it for a while.

Kong Wu's gaze also fell on the brocade in Li Quan's hand, his eyes darkened, he had stayed in Dachen for a long time, and he already knew what it meant.

For some reason, after seeing this, Ye Chu's tall and straight figure immediately appeared in his head. The man's demeanor is extraordinary. He used to think that he was a high-ranking official, but now he has a new judgment.

Liu please didn't expect this level. Seeing that Li Quan came, and he was carrying the imperial decree, he thought he was holding it for the little eunuch behind him.

"Where is little master?" To avoid embarrassment, Chang San asked first.

Liu please shook his head without thinking, "The little master was behind me before I went out, so I don't know where I am right now."

"No problem." Chang San shook his head and said, "Brother Li and I will go find it... What are you doing?"

He didn't see Liu Qing holding something in his hand, so he didn't know where the other party went just now.

As for Kong Wu, after greeting them just now, he went in with his things.

Liu Qing's round eyeballs were very bright, and he looked at Chang San with a slight smile, revealing two shallow dimples, very delicate and pleasant.

"I went to the market and bought some ingredients for my little master, but where have you been?" Those Gu Panyeye eyes were full of curiosity, and with his not-so-tall stature, he looked very cute .

He speaks in a soft voice, which makes it difficult for people to speak harshly to him. Even Kong Wu, who is extremely difficult to get along with, is not as indifferent to him as others. The eyes were filled with a slight smile, and most of that smile was covered by the blue eyes, but it was still looked at by the careful Wen Yao.

For a moment, he seemed to understand why Kong Wu had such an attitude towards Liu Qing.

If the two were together in the end, he would be very happy to see it.

Having said that, several people chatted while walking into the room, Li Quan stood behind Chang San, and he would only answer when the children asked, most of the time, the two children chatted happily.

At this time, Wen Yao happened to pass the corridor from behind, and several people met on the corridor.

"The little master has already got everything he wants."

"Well, you did a good job." Wen Yao boasted.

Liu Qing's thin-skinned face instantly turned red.

At this moment, Wen Yao looked at Li Quan and the people behind him again. He knew the craftsmen, but the extra man, seeing his clothes should be a eunuch in the palace, he would come, no doubt he was looking for him, but he didn't know Find yourself what to do.

Li Quan followed Wen Yao's gaze and looked over, then coughed lightly and said, "This is here on the orders of the master."

Before Li Quan left, Ye Chu had told them not to reveal Wen Yao's identity in front of everyone in Minshifu, but in his haste with the little eunuch, he forgot to ask someone to change clothes.

Fortunately, he didn't ask too many people, and Li Quan's worries were reduced by half.

Wen Yao said: "Liu Qing, you and Chang San go to work first, I have something to say to Li Quan."

The two of them coincidentally said "oh", turned around and went back to the front, looking at the backs of the two walking away, Wen Yao naturally stretched out his hand and made a "please" gesture.

"Come here."

Li Quan followed up with a smile, and said: "Little master, you are too polite."

Wen Yao pursed his lips and smiled, "What's the matter, Eunuch Li?"

"Yes." Li Quan followed him closely and said in a low voice: "The master asked the slave to bring you a message, saying that he would give you a surprise to make up for the grievance you suffered."

"He has a heart." Wen Yao smiled indifferently, "But I don't feel wronged."

Even though same-sex marriage is still not recognized in the country where he lives in later generations, it is much better here in comparison, at least Dachen law allows men to marry other people.

However, compared with women, most men can only marry as concubines or concubines, and cannot be regarded as formal marriages.

Wen Yao took the two of them to his house, looked around and said, "There is no one here, this little eunuch can read the imperial decree now."

As he said that he was about to kneel, Li Quan was startled suddenly, and blurted out with panic in his voice, "No way, master said that you don't need to kneel, little master, get up quickly, let master know, how can slaves explain."

Wen Yao didn't really want to kneel, as soon as Li Quan opened his voice, he stood up.

He motioned to the little eunuch beside him to read out the imperial edict, and the little eunuch unfolded the imperial edict in a daze, and read it carefully according to the content above, for fear of reading too much or making a mistake, he was very cramped.

"Following heaven's fortune, the emperor said, the... son of the Wen family, gentle in nature, respectful and cautious... do everything in the palace, be respectful and cautious, be careful and respectful, and be generous and peaceful under the leadership of Jiaoting. Xian... put her heart and soul out of the way to relieve my worries, her heart and strength have won my heart, and now she is registered as a third-rank concubine, and she is awarded the gold book, gold seal and gold treasure, and admires this."

After the little eunuch finished reading, it was as if he had discovered the secret history of the ages. His belly couldn't help shaking, and his palms were even more sweaty. How could he have imagined that the young master Wen, who treats people kindly and peacefully in private, is actually a man!

And the emperor also named him a virtuous concubine, only one rank lower than the noble concubine.

He closed the imperial decree in trepidation, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said sincerely: "Congratulations to Empress Xianfei, congratulations to Empress Xianfei."

Wen Yao lost his mind for a moment, and when the little eunuch called him, Pan Ran came back to his senses, the corner of his mouth twitched, he never thought that a man would make him a virtuous concubine.

She is still the top concubine, and she is a little lower than the noble concubine. Compared with the concubine Li, the concubine Zhong has no title. It can be said that Ye Chu is very distracted by Wen Yao.

He took the edict from the little eunuch, and asked the two with a leering smile, "It's still early, do you want some tea before leaving?"

The little eunuch didn't dare to talk, Li Quan said with a smile: "I don't need it today, the master is still waiting for the two of us to return to our business."

"The slaves will definitely stay someday, and have a good taste of your craftsmanship, little master."

Li Quan said with a smile.

Knowing that it was a polite remark, Wen Yao just responded casually, and after talking to them a few more words, Li Quan led them away.

In the afternoon, Wen Yao asked Chang San and Liu Qing to count the income of the restaurant in the past few months. Two days ago, Wen Yao received the bill sent by Zhou Yun.

Due to the cumbersome things, the original plan was to ask Liu to go, but the upcoming water feast made him only write to Zhou Yun, asking him to bring the account book to the escort.

The business of the two stores in Tongxian and Quanzhou exceeded Wen Yao's expectations, and he was busy for a while when he got the bills. He didn't expect that there would be several books in just half a month.

Along with it came a letter from Zhou Yun, which said that the business of the Min Restaurant was booming, and there were a lot of diners. It was as lively as Kyoto, and even more popular than Kyoto.

In the afternoon of that day, Wen Yao and Chang Sanliu cleared the accounting books. Zhou Yun had already done the calculations before, and Wen Yao had to verify it again.

By the time the five bills were settled, it was already dark.

"How much is this?" Wen Yao asked.

Chang San immediately answered, "One, one thousand and eight hundred taels." After the words fell, there was the sound of him swallowing.

How long has it been, and there are so many of them!

More than 1000 taels of silver are enough for ordinary people to live for several lifetimes.

Wen Yao looked at Liu Qing and asked, "What about you? Have you figured it out? How much?"

"It's the same as what Brother Zhou Yun calculated, a total of 300 taels."

As soon as these words came out, Chang San took a deep breath.

2000 taels!Gosh!

His young master finally didn't have to suffer.

"I have two copies here, adding up to 500 taels, and including here, the total is 700 taels of silver."

Wen Yao calculated it, which is equivalent to earning 2506 million yuan.

With so much income in half a year, Wen Yao felt that it was necessary to make a small profit by taking advantage of the food and drink on the water for a few days.

Then he opened a few more branches. Originally, he wanted to open the store to the south. Unfortunately, after the flood in the south, a large number of victims had nowhere to live. Some victims had already gone north, fleeing towards Kyoto.

Some went to the far northwest, planning to spend the winter there.

Fortunately, this winter is not too cold, otherwise many people would freeze to death.

Collect the ledger and wrap the money that needs to be used separately with a piece of burlap. These are business taxes that need to be paid.

Wen Yao thought about it and thought about the night.

Ye Chu, who was still in Dewu Hall, had to stay up all night trying to figure out how to arrange for the large numbers of disaster victims who flocked to Kyoto.

and disaster victims across the South.

After much deliberation, the result is that a large amount of silver is still needed, so he doesn't have to worry if the treasury or the Ministry of Households have it.

Leaning back on the dragon chair, he raised his hand and rubbed the upturned roots.

The people were displaced, hungry and cold. This situation was obviously not what he wanted to see. Although he was called a tyrant in private, he actually wanted to be a willful tyrant, but the facts did not allow him to do so.

He thought a lot that day, and even wanted to give up just like that, and go back to the mountains and forests with the young man, and live a life without disputes with the world, but he couldn't.

He pressed the center of his brows, closed his eyes tiredly, and then began to deal with government affairs again. It didn't take long before he announced the right prime minister and last year's number one scholar, who is now the Minister of Dali Temple, into the palace.

It is not a day or two that the right minister and the left minister do not fight each other. The number one scholar in high school back then was also the son-in-law of the uncle of the dynasty.

The prime minister on the right was working for the emperor, and many ministers in the court were all toward Ye Chu. Only the Meng family and its party wanted to pull Ye Chu off his horse.

Thereby supporting the five-year-old prince in the palace to ascend the throne, so as to achieve the purpose of coercing the emperor to make the princes.

Someone is doomed to sleepless tonight.

The fact that the Son of Heaven secretly summoned the right minister and the two ministers was leaked that night, and there were always a few people from the Meng family and the left minister who could hardly sleep.

Wen Yao is also one of them, but he was thinking about Ye Chu, what Ye Chu was doing, whether Ye Chu would be upset because of the disaster victims, and what the ministers would do, and the people secretly What will be discussed.

Thinking about it actually fell asleep.So Wen Yao became the last person to wake up in the restaurant the next day.

The caring Chang San specifically asked them not to wake up the master, saying that he had worked too hard the night before.

A few people nodded ambiguously to show that they understood, and nodded along with them with clear faces.

But there was a question mark in my heart: what did the little master do at night, how could he be tired?

Unable to understand, he shook his little head, and simply didn't want to think about it. Anyway, as long as the movements are gentle, it will be fine without waking up the little master.

Wen Yao slept until the winter sun was shining brightly.

He rubbed his eyes, only to realize that the sun was shining outside. The scorching sun penetrated the window and shone in the room. A ray of light happened to hit Wen Yao's delicate face, as if it had been coated with a thin layer. The gauze is unreal, and it looks like a fairy descended into the world, with a magical color.

He quickly put on his clothes, intending to eat something first, and then go to the palace to find Ye Chu. He couldn't wait to tell Ye Chu that he was also a rich man.

Even when he left the room, the corners of his mouth were still raised.

……

Chang San received the last box of silver, all of which were escorted by Zhou Yun who hired people from the Escort Bureau, and the price was not cheap, which made him very distressed, thinking that the young master made money quickly, but spent money like running water , what should I do?

Others were not big and had no detours and thoughts, and their worries were written directly on their faces. Wen Yao just smiled and said nothing when he saw it. Chang San was blushed, and sulked alone and decided to ignore the young master.

Thinking that the young master was going to transport this box into the palace, and felt that the young master was so pitiful, his heart softened, and he murmured to forgive the young master, and the young master was really, why did he bring the hard-earned money into the palace? Aren't you afraid that the people in the palace will think about it, or don't worry that those concubines will make a fuss about it again.

Chang San thought about it anxiously, seeing the young master still had a faint smile on his face, he felt like vomiting blood, why didn't his young master know how to save his own money and use the emperor's money!

Entering Lin'an Palace from the main gate of the palace, Ye Chu was really there. Wen Yao got off the cart and saw Ye Chu wielding a long sword at the gate of the moon cave. The sword is flying in the hand, like an eagle ready to go.

Wen Yao doesn't know martial arts, but it doesn't prevent him from admiring Ye Chu's martial arts posture.

Thinking that later generations would describe Huaguo Kungfu as a show, but it is useless to be fancy, but when he saw Ye Chu smashing a yellow leaf with a sword, his scalp went numb instantly, and he felt that the world was fantasy.

How many people will have such power in future generations?

No one he knew could do that anyway.

When Wen Yao and the others came in, Ye Chu had already heard the movement. Li Quan had also practiced martial arts for many years. His footsteps were light, and he couldn't hear them unless he listened carefully, while the footsteps of young people were often accompanied by "chichi", followed by dragging the ground. The voice seemed lazy.

The voice fell in the heart, like a small wooden hammer, gently hitting the softest part of the heart, making it softer.

Ye Chu changed his moves in an instant. Before practicing the sword alone, the sharp breath came out from the sharp edge of the sword. Now that the young man is here, Ye Chu didn't want to hurt him with internal strength, so he changed to a soft sword technique.

The sword light flickered, and Wen Yao only saw a high and a low sword shadow flashing by, and the bamboo on the opposite side was split in two.

Then he made a move, turned around and saw the sword light and sword shadow, and the sword aura was awe-inspiring in an instant, one fell, one slashed, one horizontal and one stroke, all of which were pleasing to the eye and made people surrender to his sword aura.

With a sword across the sky, it immediately returned to its sheath.

Seeing that Wen Yao couldn't help clapping his hands, Ye Chu looked back at him, and Li Quan retreated quietly knowingly.

Ye Chu's thick eyebrows slanted into his temples, his lips were pursed, and he stared at the young man intently. Wen Yao was suddenly looked at with embarrassment, he pursed his delicate lips, and was about to turn his face away when he heard the man panting in a hoarse voice: "Yaoyao come over."

Wen Yao's legs trembled, and he slowly leaned towards him.

When it was less than three feet, Ye Chu stretched out his long arms to pull the person closer, Wen Yao's center of gravity was unstable, and he almost fell, but it was Ye Chu who took a look at his arms and wrapped his arms around his waist to avoid this embarrassment.

"Have you ever eaten?"

"Eat." Wen Yao didn't dare to look up at him. The two of them were so close that they could kiss the man's chin as soon as he raised his head. He simply buried his face in the man's shoulder, and his voice became dull, "What about you?"

Ye Chu squeezed Wen Yao's waist, and said with a smile in his voice, "Not yet."

Letting go of his hand, he pinched the opponent's face twice, Wen Yao raised his head and stared at him, his immature face had no power, but looked a little cute.

"Waiting for you to be together, I never thought you'd already eaten." Ye Chu's tone softened, and there was a hint of weakness in Wen Yao's ears. Looking at his face with the corners of his lips pursed, he felt that the man was extremely wronged at the moment. up.

So, he coaxed people lamely: "It's okay, I just haven't eaten enough yet, don't you mind if I rub off on your meal?"

"I don't mind." Ye Chu said, probably amused by Wen Yao's words. At this time, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, evoking a beautiful arc, and because of the smile blooming in the color of snow on his handsome face, he was instantly hooked. Wen Yao's heart.

The beating heart that was already throbbing became more obvious and more intense.

"Let's go." Seeing that Wen Yao was in a daze, Ye Chu held his hand, his voice was low and close to his ears, it looked like Ye Chu was kissing Wen Yao's ear from the side, and Wen Yao's face turned red, Like a very shy little daughter-in-law.

In fact, Wen Yao was really embarrassed.

He didn't expect Ye Chu to grab his hand directly, and he couldn't help thinking wildly, does Ye Chu like him too?

He quickly recalled the plot in the book, but unfortunately he only read the beginning and didn't understand the rest of the content at all, and he didn't even know who the protagonist in the book was.

It is precisely because there are too many unknown factors that he is afraid that Ye Chu will fall in love with other people in the future, but he doesn't want to give up just like that. After a while of conflict, he feels that he can't think about it and mess up his own way. Since the other party is interested in him, then Just let him be inseparable from himself.

After thinking about it, Wen Yao's heart was as sweet as if coated with honey.

When he came back to his senses, he had been taken into Muyao Palace.

……

Looking at the three or four maids in front of him, Wen Yao had to eat with Ye Chu after they all stood aside.

"Didn't you rest well last night?" Wen Yao found that the man's eyes were turning blue, and couldn't help feeling sorry for him.

Ye Chu didn't deny it, the nasal voice hummed, Wen Yao looked at him with gentle eyes and worried, and heard his nasal voice hum slightly, as if he had been wronged, his heart was as soft as cotton wool, "Can you talk to me?" Did I tell you why?"

"It's nothing." Ye Chu didn't want Wen Yao to worry about him.

"You don't tell me, I know." Wen Yao pouted, "It's about the disaster victims in the south, right?"

Ye Chu watched him without speaking for a long time, the worry in Wen Yao's eyes made his heart tremble, and he complied inexplicably.

"I have an idea."

"what?"

Wen Yao had already thought about it before, and now that he opened his mouth like this, it was just a gesture, I am afraid Ye Chu would disagree.

"I plan to provide disaster relief." Wen Yao said: "The Ministry of Household Affairs can't get out the silver taels, and the national treasury is short of money, and I can just make up for this."

"No way." Ye Chu understood Wen Yao's plan to let him spend his daughter-in-law's money, but he was unwilling no matter what.

"Why can't it work." Wen Yao pouted and said, "You don't even listen to others."

Pulling his eyes away from the man's stern and serious face, Wen Yao sulked to himself.

Seeing that his daughter-in-law was really angry, Ye Chu could only sigh in his heart, if it were someone else who would have been dragged out to face the board, who would let this person be his favorite, he could not be beaten or scolded, he would be held in his arms The palms of my hands are afraid of pinching people.

With a sigh in my heart, I didn't want to eat, put down the bamboo chopsticks, got up and said: "I'm going to the imperial study."

Wen Yao didn't look at him, and snorted when he heard the words, thinking that a man might come to coax him, so he acted angry, crossed his hands/chest and waited for him to coax him.

However, what was waiting was——

The man just left!

Just said a word, flung his sleeves and left!

Wen Yao stood up angrily, and walked outside. He was really pissed off. Why is the man so stubborn? It was clearly agreed before.

This won't work, he has to find a way to get the other party to nod in agreement.

But right now he still has to make some money, which will be more lucrative than before, and will really help Ye Chu by then.

Thinking of this, he didn't chase after Ye Chu, but left the palace with the token.

In the imperial study room, Ye Chu couldn't calm down at all, thinking repeatedly in his mind how Wen Yao is doing now, is he still angry?

Even though he knew that his Yaoyao would be angry, he could only do this. After all, Yaoyao didn't have much savings, so he thought that he would look for him when he was no longer angry.

At that time, Li Quan knocked on the door, Ye Chu answered, he dared to open the door and entered, bowed his head and said with a low heart: "Master, little master is out of the palace."

"Let him go." Ye Chu said indifferently, and then murmured as if talking to himself, "I'll be busy in the next few days."

"Don't bother him recently, send someone to keep an eye on the Meng and Wen families."

"Yes." Li Quan backed out.

Although he had doubts, how did he think of the Wen family, but as a qualified subordinate, he didn't ask much.

Master would do this for his own reasons.

It must be the master's intention to withdraw the spies from the Zhong family and the Lin family.

In the past few days, the news of the water flower banquet at Minshifu spread throughout the capital, but the few families headed by the Meng family didn't take it seriously, thinking that it was a restaurant opened by people in the rivers and lakes with some connections.

Furthermore, before finding out who the owner of the restaurant is, they will not foolishly come to seek abuse.

This saved a lot of trouble for Wen Yao, the only thing he didn't like was that Ye Chu didn't come after a few days, let alone coaxing himself.

Fortunately, there are many things in the Minshifu, and in the busy work afterwards, Wen Yao forgot the troubles brought by the man for the time being.

As early as the day when he returned to the capital, Wen Yao had already given orders to improve the membership system of the Mincan restaurant. After a few days, it was almost perfected, and some diners were unwilling to replace it.

After all, with the addition of customized membership, the fee is not affordable for ordinary people, and now Wen Yao is in urgent need of money, and the customized membership has jumped from the initial 300 taels per month to 500 taels per month.

Ordinary members have also become 100 taels per month, and senior members have 300 taels per month.

Except for Wen Yao, almost everyone in the restaurant was worried that no one would handle it.

However, at this moment, the little master summoned them again and gave another plan, customizing the limited number of members.

The number of customized members is open to ten, and only one will be added every month.

At the same time, there are new members added to the ordinary members. Members need to pay 200 taels of silver per month, [-] places are open to the public, and three new members are added every month.

The price of ordinary members is cheap, and there are not many places. There are a total of one hundred places, and ten more are added every month.

Those who come to apply for membership must also follow the corresponding time, otherwise they will refuse to apply.

It can be said that when these few regulations were implemented, Liu Qing and the others looked worried, fearing that these people would not buy it.

However, it happened for a reason, and precisely because of this incident, Minshifu became famous not only in Kyoto, but also in other counties.

And because of the momentum of the water feast, more and more people want to explore the truth and see the charm at a glance.Wen Yao only asked people to make 100 tickets, which was a full [-] taels more expensive than last month.

The people in Shun'an were also worried that no one would buy them. How could they expect that dozens of people came to buy them as soon as the publicity was announced? Zhang, if you want to buy again, you have to buy someone else.

Looking at the boy who was refused to leave, Shun An felt a sense of worry in his heart, fearing that they would spread the news and ruin the restaurant's reputation.
