His Majesty is my ex-boyfriend

Compared with dogs, Bai Lu prefers cats.

When he was very young, about three or four years old when he just had a gender concept, he once firmly believed that all dogs are male and cats are female. As a tough guy, Bai Lu of course prefers little boys. Girls, this has nothing to do with his sexual orientation, it's just pure tenderness of a tough guy.

Bai Lu pulled up the loose hem of his clothes to prevent it from getting dirty, and then squatted down and stretched out his hand to the white cat, seducing the pretty girl on the side of the road like a professional hooligan, "Come on, come on, little girl, brother, there is something good here. food."

The white cat is not afraid of people, it approached with light steps, raised its head and touched Bai Lu's hand with the tip of its pink nose, then meowed softly, lay down on the ground as if it was boneless, turned over The soft belly was exposed.

Bai Lu reached out and touched its belly, "It's so good, so good."

The white cat squinted its eyes comfortably, like a drunken prostitute who had completely given up its vigilance and resistance to humans.

Bai Lu took advantage of the situation and touched his whole body. There was no injury or illness on the surface, but he was a little thin and his belly was flat. It didn't look like he had been well-fed.

In other words, this is also a stray cat. Anyway, keeping one cat is like raising, and raising two is like raising. A single cat is not as good as a group of wives and concubines. Bai Lu didn't hesitate much, picked up the white cat, turned around and walked back.

As soon as he reached the entrance of the council hall, he saw Chu Ya and a few people coming out of it. Bai Lu hesitated for a moment, but went up to meet him.

Seeing the cat in his arms, Chu Ya couldn't help laughing, "You go back to pick up cats every day, do you want to open a zoo?"

"Then what's the matter, it's not that I can't afford it, as long as I like it." Bai Lu said while teasing the white cat's chin with his fingers, "Isn't it, girl?"

"Girl? You really know how to name..."

Chu Ya's eyes fell on Bai Lu's hands, he suddenly paused, and asked calmly, "Why are your hands so dirty, what did you do?"

Bai Lu's heart skipped a beat, and he subconsciously lowered his head to look at his hands. Not only were his fingers not wiped clean, but there was also a bit of dirt left in his nails, which obviously looked like he had just dug the dirt.

Bai Lu had his own considerations and didn't intend to tell Chu Ya about the poison right now.To be honest, this Lin Xiaoan's life experience is confusing, and he is definitely not a simple luthier. The more Chu Ya knows about him, the more likely he will be caught after he escapes.

At most, before he left, he would leave a note telling him to be careful of poisons and assassins.

Bai Lu lowered his eyes, wiped the dirt on his hands vigorously, and said in a disguised way: "It's okay, I was catching cats just now, and I accidentally got it dirty."

Chu Ya looked at him for a few more times, and seemed to see something, but he didn't pursue it any further. He just took the cat from him and handed it to the guard next to him, "Okay, go wash your hands and go eat .”

Bai Lu breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and left with Chu Ya.

In the afternoon, Chu Ya didn't go to the council hall, but stayed in the study of White Deer Palace to correct the memorial.

Bai Lu changed into a dark narrow-sleeved riding uniform, and sat on the steps outside the door leading the two cats to play. There was a low table beside him, and on the table was a plate of cut seasonal fruits and some pastries. There is also a cup of sweet milk, which is a snack prepared for him by the maids.

Bai Lu made a simple cat teasing stick out of dogtail grass, and teased the uncle and the girl to jump around and play.

After a few minutes, Bai Lu found that the two cats seemed to know each other, and they were very close to each other. Sometimes the white cat licked the orange cat's fur, and sometimes the orange cat bit the white cat's ears. The two kisses who touch the tip of the nose are simply like a couple who are mellow with each other.

Watching and watching, Bai Lu suddenly realized an incredible thing. He put down the cat teasing stick, grabbed the girl's front paws and hugged her, and looked between its two hind legs. Sure enough, the evil The little red stick stood there without any concealment, clearly showing its gender.

Gender male, love female.

Bai Lu was struck by lightning, and looking at the close relationship between it and the uncle, the uncle gradually showed his pregnant belly, and the truth of the matter has come to light.

Bai Lu stood up abruptly, rushed into the study at a speed of sprinting [-] meters, gasping for breath while leaning on the table, and said to Chu Ya in horror: "Listen to me! The child in the uncle's belly , belongs to a girl!!"

Chu Ya: "??"

How shocking these words are, people can't help but see a scene of a pregnant old man leaning shyly in the arms of a delicate girl.

Even though he was as calm as Chu Ya, he couldn't help but be shaken by the beautiful scenery for a few seconds, but he quickly calmed down, tried to remain calm, and smiled: "Oh, you mean your two cats, right? They Is it a couple?"

Bai Lu sat casually on the large table, took a sip from the teacup next to him, moistened his dry throat, and said seriously: "I think it should be, if it's not husband and wife, then the girl took care of the pregnant uncle so carefully. , wouldn’t he become a receiver? The honest man is really pitiful.”

Chu Ya couldn't help laughing, "Where did you learn these messy words?"

"Online." Bai Lu put the teacup back on the table, turned over and got off the table, "I'm going back, since the uncle and the girl are a couple, I want to dismantle the original cat nest and expand it so that they can live together."

Chu Ya nodded and looked at him gently, "Go, I'll help you in half an hour."

Bai Lu didn't answer, turned and left.

Thirteen concubines live in the thirteenth courtyard of the harem. According to their status, the lives of each palace are completely different.

The concubine with the lowest status in the harem currently lives in the second-entry palace. After entering the gate, it is the outer courtyard. The moon gate with wisteria flowers inside is the inner courtyard, and there are also four rooms.

There are four court ladies and four eunuchs in the palace garden, not counting the accompanying maids brought into the palace by the master himself, there are only eight servants.

As for the imperial concubine's palace, there are eight entrances and eight exits in the large courtyard. There are always 32 rooms, twelve maids, twelve eunuchs, and four additional cooks who can open private stoves in their own palace.

The gap is so big, it is simply a world of difference.

At this time, Concubine Mei was sitting in her magnificent room, reclining on the beauty couch, stretching out her hands and repeatedly looking at the gold and jade armor she was wearing newly.

Bi Tao stood beside him in a plain dress, and said decisively: "Madam, I really see it. He sneaked around in the bamboo garden and buried something. I wanted to wait for him to leave." I went over to have a look, but he seemed to notice me, and I panicked and ran away..."

Concubine Mei paused, her gaze shifted from her fingernails to Bi Tao's face, "Where is he now?"

"Go back to your mother, I heard that she went back to His Majesty's bedroom, but she hasn't come out yet."

Concubine Mei frowned instantly, the corners of her mouth twitched nervously, and opened her mouth to curse: "What a slut who doesn't know the heights of heaven and earth, dare to walk with His Majesty in daily life, where is he so bold!"

Bi Tao hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, calm down, that Bai Lu doesn't obey the rules and doesn't know how to restrain himself, he will fall out of favor sooner or later."

Concubine Mei Gui snorted coldly, and raised a slender hand, Bi Tao hurried over to help her up, and asked carefully, "Ma'am, where are you going?"

"Go to the bamboo garden and see what shameful things that bastard has secretly buried."

"Your Majesty, it's here!" Bi Tao supported Concubine Mei, stepped across the soft garden, and came to this bamboo forest. She pointed to a certain corner of the wall, "Look, there are still traces of digging the soil."

Concubine Mei had just taken a few steps forward when her right foot suddenly sank into the mud. She looked down and saw a lot of dirty mud on her gorgeous golden silk shoes. Concubine Mei took out an embroidered handkerchief to cover it. Holding his nose, he frowned as if disgusted, "Go, dig it out."

Bi Tao was taken aback, "Ma'am, shall I go?"

Concubine Mei glared at her, "Could it be possible for me to go?"

They came out this time without any accompanying servants, so Bi Tao had no choice but to walk over reluctantly, squatted down, and dug up the soil with ten fingers that did not touch the spring water.

Before digging too deep, Bi Tao came across a small paper bag. She quickly pushed aside the surrounding soil, picked up the paper bag and showed it to Concubine Mei, "Your Majesty, look at this!"

Concubine Mei wrapped her fingers with a handkerchief, took the paper bag with soil, opened it, and saw a small pile of white powder inside.

Bi Tao came over to have a look, secretly startled in her heart, and said in a low voice: "Mother, this can't be... that?"

Concubine Mei twisted the powder with her fingers, then shook her head, "No, go back to the palace first."

Back in Donghua Garden, Concubine Mei sent away the servants in the house with an excuse, and asked Bi Tao to bring a gold wire twisted flower bird cage. Inside was a small parrot with bright feathers, with its wings spread out and tilted. Head, preening its feathers with a beak.

Concubine Mei held a small gold-encrusted spoon, picked some medicinal powder from the paper bag, put it into the parrot's food bowl, stirred it with the soaked millet for a few times, and tapped the food bowl with the spoon, "Come on, Eat."

Attracted by the sound, the little parrot jumped over chirping, stuffed its head into the food bowl as usual, and ate happily, eating up all the millet in a short while.

However, within a quarter of an hour, the little parrot suddenly uttered a cry, and fell straight from the crossbar, its small body trembled a few times in pain, and soon fell silent.

Bi Tao screamed in fright, her voice was unsteady, "Ma'am... this, is this poison?"

Concubine Mei also had a look of surprise on her face, obviously she didn't expect this to be a deadly poison.Originally, according to her thinking, this was probably the drug or love potion that Bai Lu used to trick her, and she even ridiculed in her heart that she was a lowly male prostitute from Chunlou. s method.

But I never expected that this turned out to be poison, and its properties changed all of a sudden.

Concubine Mei immediately changed from the initial shock to ecstasy.

In fact, long before Bai Lu knew Concubine Mei, Concubine Mei had already known his name through various rumors passed down in the palace, and hated him so much that she wished she could kill him quickly.

But His Majesty doted on him lawlessly, even if Concubine Mei was a noble concubine, she couldn't treat him like a servant at will.

But now it's different, she has caught Bailu's big trick, the thing in her hand is the evidence, the evidence is conclusive, bringing poison into the palace, hiding the poison, and even burying it in the garden with ulterior motives, a list of these crimes comes up, It was enough to kill him!

but……

Concubine Mei suddenly thought of what happened in Shangyi Pavilion that day. For some reason, after knowing such an astonishing truth, His Majesty did not deal with Bai Lu, not even admonish him, as if he was extremely partial.

If she directly reported to His Majesty about Bai Lu's private possession of poison, she might not be able to bring him down. It seems that it is best to find an opportunity to kill him first, and then with her family background and this legitimate reason, His Majesty will probably not Blame it on her.

Concubine Mei looked at the paper bag in her hand, and said to herself: "This matter has to be discussed in the long run..."

At this time, the criminal suspect Bai Lu didn't realize that he was being targeted. He was staying in the imperial dining room of the White Deer Palace, eagerly persecuting... no, asking the imperial chef to make him pearl milk tea.

"Pearls? Forgive me, my lord. The villain only knows that pearls can be ground into fine powder to improve eyesight and soothe the nerves. It is a blind medicine, but I have never heard of eating whole pearls."

Bai Luxin said that explaining modern food to the ancient people was really hard work, he gestured with two fingers: "It's not a real pearl, it's such a big brown ball, it's edible, the surface is smooth, and it's soft and sticky when chewed." Yes, it has no taste, but it is perfect in milk tea!"

Yu Chu's face was filled with a bewildered expression of "listen to what you say, and read for nothing for ten years".

"My son, to be honest, I have traveled all over the world before, but I have never heard of this kind of dish. I dare to ask, what kind of cuisine and where did the pearl milk tea you mentioned come from? Who wrote it, can there be any personal disciples now?"

"..."

This really puzzled Bai Lu. There are so many people drinking milk tea in the world, but who knows who invented it, and no one even realizes when it flooded the streets and alleys and occupied leisure drinks half the sky.

Bai Lu thought about it for a while, then replied cautiously: "I vaguely remember that it seemed to appear without a sound, and it captured people's hearts all at once."

The imperial chef was horrified, "Heart-eating?! Could it be that this pearl milk tea is some kind of demon that is causing trouble in the world?!"

Bai Lu: "???"

Where did you come to such an awesome conclusion?

Just as he was talking, he suddenly heard footsteps coming from far and near outside the kitchen. Bai Lu turned his head and saw that it was Chu Ya coming.He was wearing a black narrow-sleeve riding and archery uniform, which set off his tall and heroic figure, and his usually cold and indifferent expression also became handsome under this attire.

He probably just came back from the martial arts school, and behind him were a few tall and strong accompanying guards and the prince who was often seen.

Seeing His Majesty entering the room, several imperial chefs next to him knelt down to salute. The head of the imperial dining room quickly greeted him, bowed and said, "Your Majesty, Sheng'an, the kitchen is a place where oily smoke is pickled, and your Majesty's clothes are easy to be dirty. Please think twice, Your Majesty." and enter."

Chu Ya said calmly: "It's okay."

He turned to the chef who was talking to Bai Lu just now, "What he wants is very simple, boil water and brown sugar together, add tapioca flour, knead into small balls, and put it into the boiled milk tea. It is brewed with sweet milk, goat milk and black tea."

The imperial chef bowed his head and accepted the order, "Yes, the villain will do it now."

Bai Lu looked at him suspiciously, "Black tea?"

"It's black tea. In addition to black tea, there are white tea, green tea, black tea, etc., but the milk tea made with black tea tastes better."

Bai Lu casually picked up the chopsticks by the stove and played with it like a pen, thinking thoughtfully, "You know a lot, obviously you don't drink these things at all."

"Because you like it, I checked it out."

Chu Ya stared at his handsome face, as if he saw the appearance of his previous life through those familiar eyes, he smiled, and said with nostalgia: "Actually, I was quite surprised at that time, the winning rate of a fighting match was as high as 80.00% San's boxer actually likes to drink this kind of sweet milk tea."

Bai Lu's face became hot, and he broke the chopsticks in his hand in anger, "Midget your own business, can't men drink milk tea!"

Chu Ya couldn't help laughing, "I didn't mean to laugh at you, so don't be so angry."

Bai Lu: "Hmph."

第25章奶茶连锁店的雏形更新：2021-05-1610:18:5830条吐槽

The two of them quarreled for a few words here, while the imperial chef over there had already boiled pearl milk tea, poured them into two blue and white single-handled white porcelain cups, and presented them on a wooden tray.

Bai Lu came over to take a look, and saw that the white cup was [-]% full of beige milk tea, and there were a few cassava flour balls the size of lotus seeds. The color was already very beautiful, and the smell was even more mellow.

Bai Lu couldn't wait to pick it up and took a sip, his eyes lit up immediately, "It's delicious!"

And the taste is richer and more mellow than the one sold in the store. The milk tea is sweet but not greasy, the tapioca balls are soft and delicate, and there is a slight tea fragrance.

After all, this is not brewed from milk tea powder and boxed milk. It is slowly brewed from top-grade black tea and fresh milk. It is a pure handmade flavor that cannot be replaced by industry.

As expected of the Human Happy Tea, Bai Lu's happiness has returned.

But the imperial cook next to him was terrified. This is in front of His Majesty. Before His Majesty stretched out his hand, why did you drink it first? To put it lightly, this is blunt and rude, and does not understand the rules. To put it seriously, it is a big disrespect The charges against him can be suppressed!

Yu Chu hurriedly wanted to remind him, but from the corner of his eyes, he saw that His Majesty was not angry, but looked at Bai Lu very connivingly.

Chu Ya was probably touched by Bai Lu drinking milk tea, recalling the warm and happy days between each other in the previous life, the hostility in his heart gradually dissipated, and his eyes became more gentle, as if he was looking at some unique treasure in the world of.

Bai Lu didn't notice the look in his eyes, and drank half of it on his own, then suddenly smacked his mouth again, and said dissatisfiedly: "I still feel that something is missing... a straw, by the way, how can I drink it without a straw?" What about milk tea, do you have a straw?"

The imperial chef was at a loss, "Master Hui, what is a straw...?"

Bai Lu picked up the chopsticks he had just broken, "It's as long as chopsticks, a little thicker, with a hollow in the middle, which can absorb water up."

The imperial cook suddenly realized, "It turns out that the young master was talking about drinking chopsticks."

He opened the drawer of the huanghuali four-legged cabinet next to it, took out a five or six inch long wooden pipe as thick as the little finger, and presented it to Bai Lu with both hands.

"Young master, these are drinking chopsticks. Usually, when girls drink water, they are afraid that the mouth fat will stick to the cup. They will use this. It is made of basswood and is not easy to crack. It is shaped like chopsticks and is used for drinking water, so it is called drinking chopsticks. chopsticks."

Bai Luxin said that lipstick sticking to the cup is actually a problem that has been passed down from ancient times to the present?

He took the drinking chopsticks and put them in the cup. At this point, a pure and perfect pearl milk tea was completed.How happy it is to drink a cup of hot milk tea in a feudal society with backward productivity...

This morning, when Geng Qing brought someone on patrol, he saw Bai Lu sitting comfortably on a short rock in the garden, holding a cup of steaming hot something, and beside him was a plate of grapes. Nai Gao, there are two cats under her feet, one white and one yellow, playing and playing.

Looking at it from a distance, Geng Qing suddenly felt that this man was in his seventies and eighties, with descendants around his knees, as if he was taking care of his old age.

He walked over alone, Bai Lu raised his eyes to catch a glimpse of him, and beckoned, "Come and try, milk tea and milk cake are really a perfect match."

Geng Qing took the cup and took the straw out of the cup, "Why do you still use chopsticks, like a girl."

"Don't talk nonsense, you try it first."

Geng Qing looked at the cup suspiciously, feeling a little disgusted, "Isn't this just milk tea? What's so good about it? It's better to drink rice wine. What's this underneath, little glutinous rice balls?"

He took a sip casually, then stopped suddenly, and then slowly took two more sips as if to confirm something.

Immediately afterwards, his eyes lit up as if electrified, "Oh my god, this taste is so delicious, it's completely different from the usual milk tea. How did you do it?"

Bai Lu proudly said, "Of course there is a secret recipe."

Geng Qing looked at the milk tea in the cup thoughtfully, then suddenly approached Bai Lu, and said slyly, "Brother, do you want to earn some pocket money?"

When money was mentioned, Bai Lu immediately became vigilant, and said cautiously, "Why do you ask this?"

"Listen to me, I have a relative who owns a restaurant in the capital. Do you want to sell this kind of milk tea in the store? It will definitely make a profit!"

Bai Lu hesitated for a moment. In fact, he already had a lot of money every month, and he didn't have anything to spend money on at ordinary times, but...who would think too much money.

"It can be sold, but I definitely can't manage the business, because I can't leave the palace for the time being."

Geng Qing rubbed his chin, "That's right, I forgot that you are now His Majesty's pampered pet."

"You're a fucking pet, I beat you up!"

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I accidentally told the truth." Geng Qing quickly changed the topic, "Well, tell me the secret recipe, and you will get [-]% of the profit from selling milk tea in the restaurant."

Bai Lu held grudges against the 'love' just now, and bargained with a cold face, "Twenty percent."

"Brother, you are not being kind. Think about it, we pay for all the ingredients for making milk tea, and human labor is also money. You just come up with a secret recipe..."

Bai Lu raised his middle finger without changing his face, "Thirty percent."

"Wait, wait! Why do you still add more, [-]%, just [-]%."

Bai Lu smiled slightly, except when Chu Ya was on the bed, no one could take advantage of Bai Lu, there was no way to make him suffer.

After agreeing on the share, Bai Lu told Geng Qing all the production methods that Chu Ya said before without reservation. Geng Qing took a charcoal pencil and half a piece of jute paper to record, and said tentatively: "I haven't signed yet. Just tell me the secret recipe in the contract, aren't you afraid that I will turn my back on you?"

Bai Lu shook his head, "Don't be afraid, if you dare to lie to me, I'll ask Chu Ya to transfer you to clean the toilet."

Geng Qing: "???"

Can't afford to be provoked, this backer really can't be provoked.

After Bai Lu told Geng Qing the secret recipe, he left the palace to go to a relative's restaurant on the day of Xiumu, and when he came back three days later, he saw Bai Lu again, with golden joy in his eyes.

"Brother, let me tell you, your secret recipe is amazing. It was very popular on the first day it was sold, and it was sold out in the morning. The next day, the shopkeeper calculated the accounts and found that this milk tea is the same as the most famous rice wine in the store. It’s as good as it sells, and it’s more convenient to make. It doesn’t have to be brewed for several days like rice wine.

Adults and children can drink it, and the ladies in the official mansion come to order it specially. "

This was all within Bai Lu's expectation. He lazily half-lyed on the slightly shaking wicker chair, stroked the white cat in his arms, and said with closed eyes, "It's normal, just don't forget my share."

"Hey, I can't forget." Geng Qing sat down at his feet attentively, pinching his legs, "Brother, do you have any other secret recipes, let's work together, and strive to improve food quality within three months." Dominate the capital!"

Bai Lu opened his eyes, "No, I don't know how to cook, and Chu Ya told me this secret recipe."

Geng Qing was taken aback, and his voice couldn't help but a little higher, "My God, what did you say? Who told you the secret recipe?"

"Chu Ya." Bai Lu looked at him inexplicably, "Why are you so excited?"

"No, no, you just took out His Majesty's secret recipe and sold it casually? Brother, be careful, no matter how favored you are, you can't be so presumptuous. What if His Majesty gets angry, you don't want to die?! "

Bai Lu didn't care too much, "It's okay, it's just a milk tea, there's nothing to be angry about."

In my heart, I couldn't help but think of the cookbook that Chu Ya mentioned before.The wealthy young master who grew up in a wealthy environment seemed to be the first time he entered the kitchen and picked up the kitchen utensils after being with him, just to cook him a meal with his own hands.

He even silently wrote down the formula and production method because he likes to drink milk tea, but the more gentle and considerate Chu Ya is, the more uncomfortable Bai Lu feels:

What right does a person like him have to be loved?
