Cub Nursery

Chapter 23

The glory of human beings comes from killing monsters.

Yan Xun didn't tell the cubs about this, only about glory.

Yan Xun didn't know the origin of these little cubs, but when he first saw the appearance of the little cubs, Yan Xun guessed that these little guys, including Jing Fengye, must not be an important existence in the Yao Kingdom.

It can also be seen from their abilities that the abilities of the little cubs either cannot hurt the big monster at all, or they can easily hurt humans.

Like long-haired cubs, brine is like drizzle to monsters, but it can easily kill humans; although flame cubs can heat up, to big monsters, they are not as good as basking in the sun.

It's just that although Yan Xun didn't talk about these things, the cubs actually knew in their hearts that they cared about Yan Xun and everything about him, so they didn't know about these things.

Sometimes caring is mutual.

Qin Shisan returned to the palace again, and brought Yan Xun's booklet with him.

This time Yan Xun did not mention Qin Shisan, but emphasized that with great glory comes great responsibility, and he also said that he has thought of a way to solve the IOUs of the Ministry of Households, but he needs to ask a prince for help.

The emperor took a closer look, and Long Yan was overjoyed immediately, and said, "Let the sixth child go."

At Honglu Temple, Yan Xun told the little cubs about the temperament of the prince he had found out, and asked, "Guess, which prince will come to our Honglu Temple this time?"

The little cubs are all imitating Yan Xun's behavior and interpersonal relationships. At this time, they are all thinking hard. If they are adults, who will they think of?

"Sixth Prince." The snake-bodied cub raised the tip of its tail.

The other cubs nodded quickly, obviously agreeing.

The snake-body cub also smiled when he saw Yan Xun, knowing that he was thinking the same as everyone else, he said happily: "The sixth prince loves to play with flowers and birds, and he has a good relationship with the children of those meritorious families. This matter must belong to him." !"

"I guess so." Yan Xun smiled.

The snake-bodied cub hurriedly raised its head, very proud.

Not long after, someone really came outside Honglu Temple, it was the sixth prince, Qin Liu.

The gate of Honglu Temple is very grand, with concrete statues of chunky and chunky cubs on both sides, and there are small rooms hidden inside the walls on both sides, all of which are Taoist soldiers, looking very chilling.

Qin Liu cleared his throat, entered the gate, and saw the iron donkey in the courtyard, his eyes lit up immediately.

After Qin Shisan got the iron donkey, he rode it no matter where he went. He never rode a horse or took a carriage.Although the princes in the palace didn't like Qin Shisan, and didn't want to be with him, they still envied him deeply in their hearts.

Ranked thirteenth, he was originally the least noticeable prince in the palace, even inferior to the most favored maids, but somehow he got a job in the household department, and unexpectedly entered the eyes of the emperor, as if he was favored.

Qin Liu specifically inquired that Qin Shisan was able to go to the Ministry of Household Affairs because of Yan Xun's book.

This time he also got the opportunity to come to Honglu Temple, even if he no longer sees Honglu Temple in his heart, he is ready to curry favor with Yan Xun.

"Sixth Prince." Yan Xun greeted him.

Qin Liu gave a absent-minded 'hmm', his eyes fixed on the iron donkey.

"If the sixth prince likes it, you can choose one." Yan Xun laughed, "Riding an iron donkey to go out is very majestic. Wang Zhener and Pei Yuer also formed an iron donkey riding club, but anyone who has an iron donkey can join."

Wang Zhen'er's younger brothers were all from rich or noble families. Qin Liu wanted to befriend him a long time ago, but he suffered from no chance. Hearing this, he was immediately happy and chose an iron donkey to leave.

Yan Xun saw that he was too playful and not as stable as Qin Shisan, so he ignored him and let him go out.

The boys from the Iron Donkey Riding Club, although they also accepted Qin Liu, but Qin Liu wanted to be knowledgeable but not knowledgeable, and he was not skilled in riding. Son, I had no choice but to show off the iron donkey to the fox friends and dog friends I knew before.

It turned out that Qin Shisan happened to have a very good relationship with the boys from the Iron Donkey Riding Club. Qin Liu was immediately jealous, and when he returned to Honglu Temple, his face turned ugly.

Qin Shisan also came to Honglu Temple, saluted Yan Xun respectfully, and obediently followed the cubs to work.

Everyone ate together, and the cubs got close to Qin Shisan, talking and laughing.

Qin Liu was very disdainful at first, but slowly, he became a little envious of Qin Shisan.The royal family is ruthless, even the princes are fighting and framing each other, hoping to climb up to be favored by the emperor, how can they have such a relaxed meal?

"My lord, please teach me." Qin Liu didn't think much of Honglu Temple at this time, and he was even more respectful to Yan Xun.

"Okay." Yan Xun nodded with a smile.

Seeing Yan Xun nodding, the little cubs gathered around, first staring at Qin Liu, and then chirping with him.Qin Liu was suddenly happy, and talked about his "great achievements" endlessly, which made the cubs stunned and admired him.

The next day, Qin Liu greeted his group of cronies, who happened to be people with IOUs at home, and went to each yamen to give something away.

The things sent by the Ministry of Industry were in Si Ping's hands. He had seen them in Honglu Temple before, and immediately found a charcoal stove to burn them, put an iron pot on it, and poured the soup base into it.

After a while, the fragrance wafted far away, and the others couldn't hold it back, they all came to look at it, couldn't hold back after watching it, tasted it again, and ate up everything in a short time.

"This is something made by Lord Yan. I don't need to say how it tastes. As long as we order it, it will be delivered every day. The more you order, the cheaper it will be. Anyway, I must order..." Si Ping and Yan Xun Get close, of course.

Others think about the food they bring from home, it must be icy cold, even if it is reheated temporarily, the taste will be greatly reduced. This food called hot pot seems to be much worse.

Immediately many people nodded.

Ordering hot pot, the more you order, the cheaper it is. You don’t need to buy iron pots, you just return them when you run out, and there are detailed prices for the dishes you buy. Those who are rich can order a lot, and those who are not rich and thrifty can order just one A serving of thick noodles will never cost a lot of money. It is cheaper and more decent than bringing meals by yourself.

For a while, almost all the yamen waited until noon to burn charcoal stoves. Several acquaintances gathered together, and everyone had wooden trays with vegetables and meat, and they ate while talking and laughing.

The iron pot is different, there is nothing inside, and the outside looks like a short and fat cub; inside there is a blocker, which looks like another short and fat cub; three blocks, four, five One, and one with a small grid, there are so many patterns to choose from.

In just a few days, the entire capital knew that there was a food called hot pot in the yamen, which was extremely delicious and a warm meal in winter.

There were also some who ate at the yamen, and they still wanted to eat when they got home, so they wanted to buy some from Qin Liu.

After Yan Xun knew about this, he smiled and said, "The ones outside are different from the yamen, they need to be [-]% more expensive."

"Success." Qin Liu was naturally willing to make more money, and although he gave these hot pots, the people in the yamen were all polite to him, which made Qin Liu a little addicted to work.

After Qin Liu left, Yan Xun asked the cubs, "Who is it today? Come out with me."

The claw cub quickly raised its little paw.

Leading the claw cub to the yamen of the household department, Shi Yuanshou rushed out to greet him, "My lord."

"Nothing, I just came to see." Yan Xun smiled.

It happened to be noon, and Yan Xun led the claw cubs to wait at the gate of the yamen.

After a while, a carriage drove up, Tian Fei jumped out of the carriage, and said with a straight face, "Come and get it, I'm in a hurry."

"I didn't order hotpot today, can I buy one now?" Yan Xun stepped forward and said.

The sharp claw cub was a little nervous when facing Tian Fei, who was a complete stranger. He hid behind and hugged Yan Xun's thigh, looking up at Tian Fei secretly.

Tian Fei saw that Yan Xun was very young and still brought this child with him, so he raised his eyes and said, "Which family are you from? Want to buy hot pot for officials? Go, go, or I will beat you!"

"You read it wrong, I'm the head of the household department..." Yan Xun cupped his hands in a good-tempered manner.

"Tch, you are the head of the household department? Young master, I am a serious baron, the fifth grade, you are not polite!" Tian Fei looked up and down impatiently Yan Xun, seeing his attractive appearance, the more he looked at him The more pleasing to the eye, the more he wanted to reach out and touch Yan Xun's chin.

The sharp claw cub looked at it, hurriedly stood in front of Yan Xun, looked up at Tian Fei, and said seriously: "If you do this again, I will report to the police!"

"Where's the little baby, you still report to the government?" Tian Fei seemed to hear something funny, and laughed so hard that he almost couldn't breathe.

Yan Xun touched Cub's head, let him stand in front, and said with a good mood, "Yes, we won't report to the officials this time. But, please go find the sixth prince yourself and talk about it." What happened today."

Every carriage that delivers hot pot has at least one copy in case someone suddenly wants to eat hot pot.

The hot pot in the carriage has been moved out, there is nothing left in it, obviously there is no spare one, Yan Xun silently remembered it, and turned to Qin Liu to talk.

"You are so brave!" Tian Fei was a little annoyed.

"I asked you to buy hot pot, but you said no, and now it seems that there is no spare in the carriage." The sharp claw cub said crisply, "And my lord is from the fifth rank, which is the same level as you, so how can I say a salute?"

Tian Fei saw that the sharp claw cub was speaking logically, and seeing that if Yan Xun hadn't comforted him, he would really report to the police, he didn't dare to say anything, so he jumped into the carriage and ran away.

Although he is a fifth-rank baron, he only has a salary and no real power. When it comes to seriousness, he may not be as good as a small official in the yamen. Naturally, he dare not confront Yan Xun head-on.

"Awesome!" Yan Xun smiled at the Claw Cub, "I'm the one who decides today."

"The monster breaks the law and commits the same crime as the people." The Cub Claw said with a straight face, "That person broke the rules, so we can't just let him go like this. If you can lose the spare share today, you may be short tomorrow. Two less!"

"Well, let's go find Qin Liu." Yan Xun immediately returned to Honglu Temple.

These days the yamen ordered a lot of hot pots, and those officials who were extremely difficult to deal with on weekdays were very polite when they saw Qin Liu.This made Qin Liu very happy, and he wished he could send hot pot three times a day.

After hearing Yan Xun's words, Qin Liu was furious, "It's unreasonable!"

"There are no rules, nothing is perfect, that Tian Fei, let him reflect at home first." Yan Xun said calmly.

"What your lord said is very true." Qin Liu nodded.

Tian Fei knew that day, he had made a mistake and could only stay at home in the future, not only would he lose his job, but he would also have to lose face every day in the future.Like Tian Fei, the honorable sons are all in danger, and they no longer dare to steal and play tricks when they work, for fear that they will be locked up at home, not only will they lose their errands, but they will also lose face.

Seeing that the heat was almost ready, Yan Xun took the IOU and went to Tian's house in person.

The Tian family's house is huge, with a very high lintel. It can be seen how glorious it was back then, but now it seems that the dilapidated parts of the house have not been repaired, and there are not many servants coming and going.

Yan Xun had inquired a long time ago that the Tian family didn't have any promising young masters, and now they don't have any money and power, they're just trying to save face.This time Tian Fei followed the sixth prince and got an errand. Although it was to deliver hot pot, but after all, he was able to get close to the sixth prince. The whole Tian family was very excited, thinking that this would wake him up, but Tian Fei was kicked back within a few days.

Yan Xun leads the smaller Jing Fengye out of the carriage and announces his family name.

The Shaoqing of Honglu Temple is not a big official, but he has a big name.Besides, the food like hot pot is made by Honglu Temple. Those iron pots have the images of short and fat cubs on them, which are exactly the same as soap and so on, so they can be recognized at a glance.

Granny Tian hurriedly asked someone to invite Yan Xun in.

Jing Fengye is small, with bulging cheeks, and the traces of dragon scales on his cheeks are not obvious, but Granny Tian has already found out that he is a monster, and she dare not neglect him.

"What are you doing?" Tian Fei asked his servants to come out drunk, squinted his eyes and saw Yan Xun, his eyes widened immediately, "You, you..."

"It's me." Yan Xun smiled.

Tian Fei's face was pale, and he thought Yan Xun was here to question Xingshi, so he didn't speak at all.

"This is the IOU from back then." Yan Xun put the IOU on the table, and said straight to the point, "If Tian Fei is still willing to accept that job, then from now on, his wages will be worth this IOU. If not, we will There is no other way."

None of the Tian family's children are successful, and it seems that after another generation, the title will be gone, and the older generation will be gone. The Tian family will not be able to do business or study well, and I am afraid that they will not be able to survive in the capital in the future.

"Yes, of course I am willing." Mrs. Tian hurriedly said.

Yan Xun didn't speak, just looked at Tian Fei with a smile.

Tian Fei looked up at Yan Xun, and suddenly said, "Is he a monster?"

As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Tian was taken aback, thanks to the fact that she sent all the servants out, even so, she broke out in a cold sweat.Back then, the ancestors of the Tian family made meritorious deeds by killing monsters. Now Yan Xun brought the monsters to help the Tian family.

"I am." Jing Fengye said, "It's a monster from Honglu Temple."

"Monsters break the law and commit the same crime as the people. This is what the emperor said. Don't worry, they will definitely not harm you." Yan Xun said, "It just depends on whether you are willing to bear the glory left by your ancestors back then. The debt left by the ancestors."

In an instant, Tian Fei seemed to have grown a lot, became calm, and said, "My lord, I am willing."

"That's good." Yan Xun smiled and nodded.

When Tian Fei came back, he found that the faces of the other honored children were very strange. After asking, he found out that they had also seen the IOUs from that year.

Obviously, this time is an opportunity to start again. Although it is just a job of delivering food, with Qin Liu around, no one dares to say that this job is cheap. Just a chance to be loved.

After a while, Qin Liu's subordinates lost a young master, Jia Buzhen from the Jia family.

The Jia family had a very beautiful daughter who entered the palace. Although her rank was not high, she was very favored.Jia Buzhen has been a favorite since childhood, so she can't bear the slightest bit of hardship, and Jia's family is different from other families, so naturally she doesn't suffer from Qin Liu.

"This is looking down on me!" Qin Liu was unhappy, and ran back to Honglu Temple to lose his temper, but not at the cubs, but at the wall.

The sharp claw cub squatted by the side and listened for a while, then suddenly said: "We want to build a bridge, and we have a piece of land in our sights. Originally, my lord refused. If the sixth prince asks my lord, my lord will definitely agree."

"Which land?" Qin Liu was puzzled.

The sharp claw cub hurriedly started talking, and the other cubs saw it, and they all came over and chattered.

As soon as Qin Liu heard that it was just right, he went to ask Yan Xun.

Yan Xun knew that it was the cubs who told the story, but it was the most appropriate thing for Qin Liu to do, so he nodded.

So Qin Liu turned on the iron donkey and went straight to the palace.

The issue of the IOUs from the household department has been settled. Don’t look at these young masters who are only doing the job of delivering food, but the money they receive when they send it to yamen, rich families, and some big restaurants is not low at all. One family was doing business in the whole capital and earned a lot of money, all of which went into the treasury of the household department. The emperor was happy every time he thought about it.

He also heard Qin Liu say that the Jia family would not do this matter, the emperor was immediately displeased.

Qin Liu took the opportunity to say: "Yan Xun wants to build a bridge, use that stone-like cement, and want to use a piece of land by the river, that land belongs to Jia's family. Yan Xun said that as long as there is that express delivery, there will be no users." It can be repaired without paying a big money bridge.”

"Sure!" The emperor nodded quickly when he heard that no money was required.

The river is very wide and the water is very deep. There is no way to build a wooden bridge. You can only use boats to go back and forth, which is very inconvenient.Yan Xun wanted to build a bridge a long time ago, and he also took a fancy to a piece of land by the river. He discussed it with the cubs a long time ago, and found out that the land belonged to the Jia family. Dismissed the idea.

This time the emperor issued an imperial decree, and that piece of land became the property of Honglu Temple.

Got it, Yan Xun hurriedly discussed with the cubs.

"My lord, for such a wide bridge, the piers must be wide and big." The little cub was very distressed, "It's a pity that we haven't learned mechanics yet, and we can't properly calculate the force of the bridge now."

Yan Xun has written textbooks for this knowledge, but he didn't want the little cubs to study hard, and they all came slowly.

"I'll do the calculation." Jing Fengye said lightly.

As long as it is the knowledge written by Yan Xun, Jing Fengye has studied it very thoroughly, and draws inferences about other cases from one instance.

"Then let's make a plan." Yan Xun smiled.

Gradually, he will give some of the slightly more complicated work to the cubs, so that they can learn to coordinate and make plans, etc., and only after participating in these can they understand all aspects.

At night, the cubs were all asleep, Jing Fengye suddenly opened his eyes, seeing that Yan Xun was not asleep, he said softly, "Your Excellency indulged them too much." Talk about building the bridge.

"They don't have to listen to me in everything, it's good to have their own ideas." Yan Xun said, "I hope you can all grow up well."

"Then I..." Jing Fengye paused for a moment, then said in a low voice, "I like adults."

Yan Xun was already asleep, so he didn't know if he heard it.
