my lord, please eat

Gong Xiaoyong found a safe place for herself.To be precise, it was a deserted temple.It is not clear what is offered in the temple.In short, near the bustling capital city, this place is definitely a corner place. Anyway, it is in the woods outside the east gate, and there is nothing to see except a small stream.

In the past few days, he went out to buy food during the day, looking for a place where he could work.At night, I hid in the ruined temple, and then found a more secluded place to enter the space and go home.

It feels good to have no inn accommodation fee.The prices outside are completely acceptable to Gong Xiaoyong.Basically, in terms of his needs, ten coppers a day is quite a lot.More than half of them were bought for meat.There is no way, in this era, ordinary people still have to calculate when eating meat, especially the type like him who can only get in and out.

The only big expense was that he bought himself three suits.Even though the clothes are made of coarse cloth, it took nearly 20 Wen to tidy up from head to toe and from the inside to the outside.Speaking of money, he had to thank the emperor of the Daheng Dynasty for his "favorable treatment" to the eunuchs. For a little eunuch like him, well, his monthly salary was raised a bit after he was promoted. In short, after more than a year, he also saved money. Twenty taels of silver.But if you do the math carefully, a penny is 20 Wen, and a penny is roughly equal to one tael, that is to say, his more than [-] taels is more than [-] pennies.If it really takes off... it won't be too fast!

On the tenth day after escaping from the palace, Gong Xiaoyong heard a gossip while drinking tea.That is, Yongping Prince's Mansion is recruiting a cook, and the recruit is a cook who specializes in serving the princess.Everyone in Hengguo knows that King Yongping only has one male wife, and love is like a treasure and he is his lifeblood.If you can get this errand, you can be regarded as a great success.

Gong Xiaoyong ate the wontons while straining his ears, and when he heard that he was recruiting a cook, his heart moved immediately.

This Yongping Palace Xiaoyong knows.Mu Xiang had told him.The third younger brother of the former emperor, who is also the third uncle of the current emperor, is an exception in the royal family.Married a painter as his wife.Although both of them are men, they are very affectionate.Because of the "scandal" between himself and An Yao Wang before, this matter has not been heard from different people.In short, everyone said that King Yongping did not go to court or face the holy, and the palace was located in the southwest of the city far away from the imperial palace.So he decided that if he applied for this position... the risk should be very low, right?

Don't blame Xiao Yongzi for thinking about working in the royal family.In fact, in the past ten days, he has asked all the people in the market that he can do, that is, the types of jobs that people are willing to use him.No restaurant is willing to have a 15-year-old child as a chef, and even the people who wash the dishes choose older helpers who are cheaper and do not need to be trapped.Even the young couple serving the dishes must be in good shape. No one likes him.As for small restaurants and street stalls, it is even more impossible to use his possibility.He is capable of physical work, but with his frame, he will definitely not be able to carry it for a few days, let alone earning little.

He is definitely in a state where he can't be high enough to be low enough, but he can't help it, the reality is pressing.Now that he has such an opportunity, how can he not be tempted.Anyway, if you only serve Princess Yongping, you probably won't go to see anyone in public, and the security seems to be okay.

After inquiring about the location of Prince Yongping's Mansion, he "jumped" over immediately after eating.When I saw the Yongping Palace from a distance, I realized that there were quite a lot of people who came to apply at the gate, and these people automatically and consciously lined up.

"It's really organized and disciplined!" Gong Xiaoyong sighed, and took a closer look at the sign standing on the table in front of the team, and quickly stood at the end of the team.He didn't know what questions they were asking, anyway, he didn't see a single person being sent into the mansion.It should be quite difficult?

Xing Yihong is drinking tea at this time, and he has also noticed that he is in a bad mood for nearly a month.He thinks Uncle San's idea looks good, but he's not sure how it actually works.If Gong Xiaoyong was the palace he escaped from, how could he return to the threshold of the royal family?But if he was coerced out of the palace, he would have died long ago.

Xing Yihong couldn't explain why he cared so much about this little slave.Obviously only a few acquaintances, that is, I admire his cooking skills very much.But there are many good cooks in the world, and Gong Xiaoyong is definitely not the best.So in fact, the rumors are right?Do you really like that little servant?But why do you like him?When did you fall in love with it?

"Xiao Wu, come and take a look. This is drawn by your third aunt just yesterday, let's see if your third uncle and I are still extraordinary!" King Yongping turned out from the back door of the west hall, with an extra scroll in his hand.

Looking at the fine brushwork in Uncle San's hand, Xing Yihong smiled: "If Uncle Wen knows that you said the word 'Aunt San' again, I think you won't be in the mood to appreciate this painting."

King Yongping smiled and said: "You, I still don't understand. This is the love of husband and wife. He pretended to be annoyed, and I stepped forward to beg for mercy. This time and time again, it was all indescribably wonderful. Wait until you find that little slave , After getting along for a long time, you should know what it's like."

Xing Yihong raised his eyebrows, wanting to deny that he was interested in Gong Xiaoyong, but felt that it was unnecessary.In fact, I am really interested in him, but I still don't know whether it is for the people or the delicacies of his subordinates. "Then forgive my nephew for not being able to comprehend it for the time being. It's been a while, and I'd better go back home first."

Just when Xing Yihong was about to leave, the chief executive of Yongping Palace ran in with his robe in hand. "You two princes, great joy! A young man named Gong Xiaoyong really came to the door!"

Gong Xiaoyong was overwhelmed by the question.What is the hometown address, who is the first and last name, what is the height and weight?It is even more exaggerated to ask about the medical history of three generations?There are also hygiene habits, hometown customs, what to eat, what to wear, what to use?Nima, is this hiring a cook or a blind date!

Just when he was really annoyed with the answer, and thought that instead of going through Lao Tzu, he would carry bags to make money.A figure blocks the light. "Little slave, isn't he courageous?!"

Looking up and seeing who the owner of the shadow is, Gong Xiaoyong's face turned slightly pale. "king……"

Xing Yihong didn't want to talk about these things in the street. After all, Gong Xiaoyong hadn't been removed from the palace slave register, who knows what the consequences will be if it spreads out.So he directly grabbed Gong Xiaoyong's arm and pulled him into the palace.

Being staggered all the way, Gong Xiaoyong felt that the two bowls of wontons she ate at noon were about to be smashed out. "My lord... let me go!"

Xing Yihong didn't understand why he was in such a desperate mood.This feeling has never appeared in me again after my concubine's death.Now he had to admit that this little slave seemed to have no meaning to him, at least he could make him laugh, worry, and feel angry. "Gong Xiaoyong, fleeing the palace privately is a death penalty, do you know that?!"

Gong Xiaoyong was dumbfounded all of a sudden: "What? Death penalty? Wang, lord, why don't you just pretend you didn't see me?"

Looking at the little guy in front of him, although his eyes were full of panic and surprise, the words he said unexpectedly brought out his trust in himself.Xing Yihong felt that his mood suddenly became better. "This king doesn't have that kind of ability. I absolutely can't pretend that I didn't see you. On the contrary, you, knowing that you are a fugitive slave, dared to come to Yongping Palace to apply for a cook. You are too courageous! You are treating the palace and palace as you Is the backyard of the house broken?!"

Gong Xiaoyong moved the arm that was still held by Xing Yihong, and found that he couldn't break free, so he gave up temporarily.There is no way, life is in other people's hands, and arms are nothing! "Go back to the prince... The servant's family is poor, there is no backyard..."

Xing Yihong couldn't laugh or cry immediately. "How dare you talk nonsense with me!"

Gong Xiaoyong pursed her mouth: "My lord, you don't want my life, why are you forcing me! I just want to find a stable job and earn a living. I'm homeless, why are you still Hold on to me!" I pretended to be so pitiful, why don't you let me go? ! !Let go, Hun Dan! ! !

Listening to the little servant's "begging for mercy", Xing Yihong thought it should be a "complaint".For a moment, he almost felt that he had done something bad and bullied this little thing.Thinking of this, he suddenly laughed. "You owe me one thing, and you owe me your life, do you admit it?"

Gong Xiaoyong nodded: "I admit it! I will never forget the lord's life-saving grace!" But I will remember the fact that your arm hurts from grabbing me and causing me to be slandered!

Xing Yihong was very satisfied with this answer: "Just admit it! Then your life belongs to this king! From now on, no matter whether you live or die, I will be the one to decide!"

Nima!I want human rights!Be free! "Then...then you mean..." The saddest thing is that you can't say no yet.To say no is to not want to live!The damned monarchy! ! !Why is it not for the great god of time travel to let himself come here to reform society! !We want democracy, dear! ! !

Xing Yihong said: "I will give you an errand to take care of my daily meals. From now on, you will be an errand in the Anyao Palace, and your monthly salary will be the same as that in the palace. But without my permission, you are not allowed to go out of the palace at will!"

What the hell?Don't give up the palace? "You really can't leave the palace?"

The corner of Xing Yihong's mouth twitched.This little servant is actually most concerned about this? "It depends on your performance. The king is happy to serve you, and you can say anything."

etc!Why does it seem that something strange is mixed in?Gong Xiaoyong was stunned for a moment, and then hurried down the donkey: "Okay! As long as you think highly of me, I promise to take good care of you!" Eh?It seems that something strange has appeared again!

Xing Yihong nodded with satisfaction: "You are smart! Where do you live now? Is there anything you want to get?"

Gong Xiaoyong shook her head: "After I came out of the palace, I lived in that dilapidated temple in the woods east of the city. I didn't have anything. As you may know, all my belongings were burned by fire. That's right. In the palace Did you catch the person who set the fire? Don't make a mistake. I see it for real, it's Jiang Pin!"

Letting go of Gong Xiaoyong's hand, Xing Yihong felt that the warmth in his hand seemed to be missing, and he still felt a little uncomfortable? "Caught it. But it was so late, why weren't you in the room?"

Gong Xiaoyong quickly rubbed her arm: "I don't know if I ate something wrong, so I ran to the latrine, but just as I put on my pants, I saw Jiang Pin setting fire. If you stay here, you might be killed at any time, so you ran to the west gate in a daze, and then hid in the waterwheel and escaped." Well, omitting the space, that's the whole process.

"You are lucky, you got out of the palace so easily. It seems that the defense of the palace needs more people. It is getting late, and you will go back to the mansion with the king. You will prepare the dinner. Four dishes One soup, one staple food. I will give you a separate yard to live in when the service is done."

What?Is there such a good thing?After hearing this, Gong Xiaoyong's eyes widened: "Really? Then you can do it, my lord!" Emma, ​​it's a yard alone! ! !
