food color system

Zhuo Yun naturally wanted to keep him in his Yulin Palace, and let his elder brother be the chef in Xiaozao of the East Palace.But it was not easy, he was thinking about how to ask the emperor to bring him over.

The emperor had ordered that if you return to the palace quietly, you must not make it known to everyone. Zhuo Yun would like to follow his order. He only brought four of the imperial guards who escorted him into the palace to walk along the imperial passage, while the others more than a dozen Zhuo Yun personally let them follow the martial arts.

Zhuo Yichen and Zhuo Yun walked to the Yudai Bridge together, and saw the mighty welcoming formation.The servants of the supervisor of ceremonies formed two long dragons, held up the palace lanterns, and the sound of playing music was so loud that every long bridge shook people's hair dizzily.On both sides of the aisle stood a row of officials and princes in crowns and uniforms respectfully.

Zhuo Yichen thought in his heart, this welcoming posture is too grand, the ceremony and music are overwhelming, the road is full of greetings, servants, officials, and princes all come to get involved.Since the emperor had ordered them to return to the palace silently, then this welcoming formation must not have been ordered by the emperor, but probably by some good people.

From a distance, Zhuo Yun saw the first and second princes in purple robes, surrounded by officials.He chuckled lightly, leaned into Zhuo Yichen's ear and said, "We haven't returned yet, so we're just waiting."

Zhuo Yichen asked: "What trick? Could it be the welcoming ceremony?"

"This music is the Changyin Pavilion Royal Music that the Holy Majesty only uses; the twelve palace lanterns are the formation of the Holy Majesty's imperial driving back to Beijing; look at the palace flag, there are three more."

Zhuo Yun stopped going forward in the middle of the bridge, and ordered the Imperial Forest Army behind him to send a message to those waiting, "Go and tell the eldest prince, it's too solemn to be in compliance with the etiquette system, so forgive me for not going forward."

The Imperial Forest Army immediately took the word over.

Hearing this, the eldest prince had no reason to refuse, cursed in his heart, and could only smile on his face, "Third brother went out of the palace for a trip, why is he so cautious when he comes back, since he said so... then fine! "The eldest prince had no choice but to withdraw the good cover, removed the extra palace lanterns and flags, and played triumphant music instead.

Only then did Zhuo Yun lead the people forward.Zhuo Yichen's hand was originally held by him, and as he got closer, he broke away from Zhuo Yun and slowed down his pace, letting Zhuo Yun walk in front, and he was in a row with the Imperial Forest Army behind him.

When Zhuo Yun saw his brother retreating spontaneously, he dragged him towards him again. Zhuo Yichen couldn't hold back his strength, so he had to say: "It's...isn't it good to be seen like this?"

"Your status is regarded as the eldest son, so what's wrong with being side by side with the prince? This is a corporal who treats people with kindness. If you really go to the end with the guards, they will say that I 'bully' you." The last sentence is Zhuo Yun Zhuo Yichen made up a joke to reassure his brother, but Zhuo Yichen took it seriously. He frowned and thought for a while, then began to hold Zhuo Yun's hand, straightened his back, and walked over with a solemn expression.

The first prince and the second prince were older to meet the people waiting to drive, so they came out first, both of them were smiling.Zhuo Yun bowed to them, "Big brother, second brother." After greeting, he turned to the little princesses and the young fifth prince standing behind the second prince, and said with a smile: "Who are you little ones to tell me to follow?" What? It's cold and windy, it's easy to hurt your body and get sick, go back to the palace with the mother." Zhuo Yun asked the kneeling mothers to get up, and led the little princes and princesses back to their respective places.When the fifth prince was taken away by the mother, he was still reluctant to leave, waving his little hands and whispering, "Third brother, I finally saw the third brother..."

Zhuo Yun smiled at him, "Xiao Wu is obedient, this is not the place you should come to, and the third brother will visit you later."

The third brother spoke, and the fifth prince was finally willing to leave. In the end, he said aggrievedly, "Second brother, you lied to me again, saying that you want me to welcome the third brother together..."

Zhuo Yun immediately raised his eyes and glanced at the second prince. The latter coughed lightly and concealed his words: "The third brother has been running around outside the palace for several days to quell the rebellion. As the elder brother, I must lead all the brothers to greet him. This is what I should do." of."

Zhuo Yun knew very well that the second child was using the young and innocent princess and prince to make them kneel in the cold wind, put on a big scene, and put a high hat on the prince. If there are too many high hats, the power and position will become more rigid. up.However, Zhuo Yun has been sober all the time, and he knelt down to the teacher before, how could he be so dazzled by these scenes now that he really thinks he is supreme.

The tricks played by the two elder brothers were directly broken, and the scene was a little embarrassing for a while.It seemed that Zhuo Yun should take the initiative to say something to ease the tense atmosphere, but he didn't want to say anything.He said "excuse me" lightly, and took Zhuo Yichen straight to the direction of Yulin Palace, leaving the gang of officials who catered to him behind.

"Third brother..." The second prince called from behind, "Don't get me wrong!" He quickly followed up and explained anxiously, "Brother and I just want to clean up the dust for you... "

Zhuo Yun stopped the other party's footsteps, "Second brother's kindness, I appreciate it. It's just that it's freezing cold, so it really makes me feel uneasy to pick him up like this. Second brother, please go back."

The second brother was stopped, so he stood there and looked at him, with a half-smile on his face, "So, I'm still out of date."

Zhuo Yun didn't answer any more, but cupped his hands at the two elder brothers, turned around and walked quickly in the direction of Yulin Palace, as if he didn't want to stay for a moment longer.

Halfway along the road, after passing Deyumen, Zhang Gonggong, the chief inspector, bowed and waited there, as if he was waiting for the two of them.

Zhuo Yun was puzzled, because Eunuch Zhang was the emperor's messenger.He stepped forward and was about to ask, but Eunuch Zhang gave a little salute and said first: "His Royal Highness, the emperor asked the servant to take you here."

"Eunuch, does the emperor want to summon us?"

Eunuch Zhang smiled and said nothing.The two brothers had no choice but to walk behind him, Zhuo Yun looked around all the way, and said: "Eunuch, this is not the way to the emperor's palace."

Eunuch Zhang replied: "Your Highness does not need to go to the Chuigong Hall to listen to the decree, we are going to the imperial dining room."

"Why go to the imperial dining room?"

"Didn't the two masters linger on the Yudai Bridge for a while before eating? The emperor rewarded him with a special imperial meal, and sent servants to invite His Highness and the prince to eat first."

Zhuo Yun and his elder brother looked at each other, both of them were startled, and asked Eunuch Zhang, "What? The emperor has already known about us at Yudai Bridge?"

Eunuch Zhang smiled and said, "What can we hide from our emperor? Moreover, the emperor told the servants that His Highness will work hard when returning to the palace. After the banquet, go back to Yulin Palace to rest and don't ask for greetings, and then we will see you in the palace tomorrow morning."

These words finally reassured both of them.But when Zhuo Yichen thought that he would meet with the Holy Majesty later, he couldn't help feeling a little worried.In case of conflicting words, in case of improper behavior, in case of...

"It's me." Zhuo Yun leaned over and softly whispered in his ear.

Zhuo Yichen was taken aback for a moment, then quickly raised his head to look at him.

"Let's have dinner with the emperor in a while. If the emperor asks you something and you are not sure how to answer it, then don't say it. Let me help you."

Zhuo Yichen nodded.

Imperial Room.

Gold, silver and jade vessels contained exquisite dishes, and they were laid out one by one. The servant of the food supervisor carefully tested the poison with silver chopsticks. After testing everything, he bowed his head and said respectfully: "It's all ready. Your Majesty, please eat."

The emperor took his seat first and said: "Today, there will not be so many rules." Then he ordered the servants to bring two chairs over, so that both of them could sit and eat.The two bowed to thank each other and took their seats.

The emperor didn't speak, so the two of them naturally wouldn't speak first.Zhuo Yun has been thinking about how to speak, and asked the emperor to ask his brother to come to his palace.And Zhuo Yichen has been eating carefully, not thinking about anything else.

The emperor spoke first, without asking the prince first, but to Zhuo Yichen.

"I heard that you are not in good health? However, seeing this, I feel that you are not as weak as the rumors."

Zhuo Yichen immediately sat up straight, and slowly replied: "The emperor is concerned, his body is indeed better than before."

"How is it? I want to hear it."

Zhuo Yichen stopped talking, and could only say, "...cooking."

Hearing these two words, Zhuo Yun couldn't help lowering his head and smiling.The emperor remained calm, and continued following the sentence, "Then let you come to the palace to prepare meals, are you willing?"

Zhuo Yichen nodded almost reflexively.

"You used to be in charge of the Taichang Temple Qingfu?"

"Go back to the emperor, yes."

"Since you have this experience, I want to give you the vacant post of Taichang Temple Food Superintendent. Can you do it well?"

Zhuo Yichen nodded without saying a word.

The emperor smiled lightly, "It seems that people in the Zhuo family are straightforward."

The Holy Majesty and Zhuo Yichen settled the matter in a few words, and Zhuo Yun didn't even have time to intervene.He was a little stunned, because he only wanted his brother to be in charge of the small kitchen in Yulin Palace, so that even if something happened, it was the East Palace's own business, and it was not up to outsiders to interfere.However, although the official position of the Food Superintendent of Taichang Temple is small, it is also an orderly officer, who has power and responsibility, especially when offering sacrifices and birthday celebrations, the whole Taichang Temple has to be busy non-stop. Something went wrong, but you must ask.

Before Zhuo Yun could speak out to dissuade him, he heard the emperor say again: "I know that you are working as an errand in the Shao Mansion. You must have had a lot of experience in cooking before, and you are very talented in distinguishing the toxicity of ingredients and dishes. I think You can certainly take on the job."

Zhuo Yichen didn't expect the emperor to know about it.He has indeed experienced decades of cooking skills, and has special skills in distinguishing drugs.It seems that nothing can be hidden from the emperor.But when it comes to this point, the imperial order has been issued, and it is difficult for anyone to dissuade him, so Zhuo Yun has no choice but to stop his thoughts first.

As soon as the sage Longyan was happy, he gave Zhuo Yichen the Shenyun Courtyard near the East Palace, and ordered the Ministry of Internal Affairs to select a group of servants and servants to the Shenyun Courtyard to serve the master.

Zhuo Yun finished his meal thoughtfully, but the emperor talked a lot with Zhuo Yichen, but he didn't talk much to his son.Only after dinner was over, he said, "Now you are more serious about things than before, so I don't have to worry so much. The Shenyun Courtyard is not far from your Yulin Palace, so you, the prince, should take care of things."

Even without the emperor's instructions, Zhuo Yun would definitely do so.He thought about Prince Jing again, and was about to ask where Prince Jing was going, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was not easy for him to ask.Or go to the Chuigong Hall tomorrow morning to listen to instructions.

After the banquet, Zhuo Yun took his brother back to Yulin Palace and asked him to rest here tonight.

Zhuo Yichen asked worriedly: "Isn't that good? This is your palace, what identity do I have? It will spread your reputation like this..." Before he finished speaking, he was pulled into his arms by Zhuo Yun inside.

Zhuo Yichen was startled, "There is someone beside..." Seeing this, the maidservants immediately retreated silently.

"The prince and the eldest son have a deep friendship. You rest in my Yulin Palace, outsiders dare not say anything," Zhuo Yun's lips gently rubbed his ears, "People in Yulin Palace only listen to me, and they are tight-lipped. Very, but I am a little worried about your servant of Shen Yunyuan, you are here with me tonight."

"Don't worry?" Zhuo Yichen knew the meaning of these words, and he thought of the two princes he met this morning, "Can't we not fight with them?"

Zhuo Yun hugged him from behind with a smile, and rubbed his neck, "In the palace, there is no reason to fight and fight. The status and power you have is the source of the dispute."

"Why bother, do you have to grab this position? I think it's best to spend my life in peace..."

"I think so too, but not everyone thinks so," Zhuo Yun seemed to sigh softly, "I was planning to give up..."

Zhuo Yichen let him hug her quietly for a while.Then, a court lady sent a message through the screen, "His Royal Highness, someone is here to see you." Zhuo Yun knew that there would be no peace as soon as he came back. Greetings from the harem.

Zhuo Yun turned the person in his arms around, wrapped his arms around his neck, leaned over and kissed him.After holding each other for a long time, Zhuo Yun let go and looked at the person in front of him fascinatedly, "When your end is settled, we will spend one night in Yulin Palace and one night in Shenyunyuan..."

Zhuo Yichen coughed lightly.

Zhuo Yun said solemnly again: "You have just entered the palace, I am not at ease. Especially those servants who serve by your side, I am afraid that they have bad intentions, and I have to test it myself to know if it can be used. People from Yulin Palace transferred Half of Shen Yunyuan, you can rest assured about these people, don't trust others."

"Ah."

"Also... I have to send someone to ask the imperial physician to treat you."

Zhuo Yichen didn't know why the topic suddenly turned to this, so he quickly shook his head, "No need!"

"Brother, you don't have to feel shy, these diseases are too common in hospitals."

Zhuo Yichen still shook his head firmly, "No need!"

Zhuo Yun sighed lightly, stroked his face, "But you can't do this..."

"I have a better way!"

Not mentioning this kind of symptom is very difficult in modern times, and now we still have to rely on ancient medical skills?And according to Zhuo Yichen's previous experience, how can this chronic illness of the body be healed by medicine and stones?Perhaps it would be much more effective to invest in "food color value".

Zhuo Yun asked: "What method?"

"...I'll tell you later."

Zhuo Yun smiled and said, "Now you are more and more good at keeping things secret."

"..."
