The princess relies on the cat to ascend the throne

Since Le Ning announced the recipe for making "tofu", all the merchants in Wang'an City have started to make tofu if they have the conditions. This product does not need expensive raw materials, and the price is naturally cheap After the residents of every family bought tofu and returned home, although the cooking method was not as delicious as Zou Gong's restaurant, it was also unique.

Even those residents who had a poor life in Wang'an gritted their teeth and squeezed out ten copper coins to exchange for a prescription, and then set up a small tofu workshop at home, and the income was barely enough.

This "tofu" is a new thing no matter in Wang'an or in the whole of Dali. In the past, merchants from various cities close to Wang'an City came to Wang'an to see what new things are under the feet of the emperor-naturally, Dali. Most of the time, the merchants in Luoyang returned disappointed.

Due to the strict system of Wang'anfang City, the prosperity of the market is not comparable to that of Luoyang. Since the excavation of the Grand Canal in the previous dynasty, Yangzhou has also become very popular. Fortunately, there are many royal families in Wang'an City, and there are many powerful families. Wang'an's heritage is still arrogant.

But this time, the changes in Wang'an City surprised the Luoyang merchants.

"The color of this thing is as white as jade, but I can't see what the raw material is. I can only smell the fragrance of beans. Dare I ask you, what is it?"

Zhang You, a peddler who just came from Luoyang, looked curiously in the east city of Wang'an City, pointing to the stall selling tofu aunts and asked curiously.

As long as he said this, everyone around looked over. Some people's faces were full of arrogance, and there was only one sentence in their eyes, "You don't even know this?"

Zhang You, who has never been seen as a country bumpkin, is the only one who surprises others by bringing new products from Luoyang: "..."

But Mrs. Wang remembered where this tofu recipe came from, and when she thought of the income this recipe had brought her recently, she smiled: "Mr. Well, if Mr. Lang wants to taste the flavor of this tofu, you can go to Zougong Restaurant in Jurenfang to try it."

"Oh? I've heard about Zou Gong's restaurant, but it's opened by the old former imperial dining room manager?" Zhang You asked.

When the onlookers heard this, they couldn't hold back anymore, and said to him in one go:

"It's more than that! The Zougong restaurant also has grilled meat skewers, all kinds of tofu, and a lot of fish and flowers recently..."

"Seeing that it's noon now, if you don't go earlier, I'm afraid there will be no seats..."

Zhang You was stunned, he only had a ten-year future, so how come there are so many things that he doesn't know about?

Not long after, he looked serious and decided to go to Zougong restaurant in the next few days.

……

This kind of scene is not only in Wang'an City, but occasionally someone picked tofu out of the city early to sell, and when someone asked about it, he smiled and told them the story of the tofu——

"I heard that Mr. Zou has recently taken in a young apprentice who is talented and intelligent. He is the reincarnation of Yi Yin, but he has mastered the art of cooking at the age of Zongjiao. This tofu is made by him."

"I will never forget this food, thank you little gentleman for me! I will go to Wang'an for the exam in the future, and I will definitely meet him in Zougong's restaurant!"

The discussion caused by "tofu" swept the surrounding area of ​​Wang'an. I don't know who started it, and gradually called "Tofu Boy" as Le Ning. Naturally, this is all a later story.

Right now, Le Ning is preparing with Zou Dequan for entering the palace for the first time, or in other words, mainly preparing himself psychologically.

It was night, as usual, she found an unoccupied room. After washing herself, she arranged her clothes again, and scooped out the water in the big wooden bucket again and again. In a month, she only took such a big wash three times, and for the rest of the time, she only kept the habit of scrubbing her body.

Fortunately, Su Hanzhang, the elder brother who lives in the same room with her, has already lived in the rest room of the restaurant due to a lot of business affairs, and instead returns to Zou's house every half a day, the chances of her revealing her identity are much less. Shang Lening is used to locking the doors and windows of the house when washing and grooming, so now even the sesame around her doesn't know her real body.

After washing herself comfortably, Le Ning took another cloth from the outside yard, wet it and summoned sesame seeds, and wiped all the hair on her body——

During this process, not only did the little dumpling not run away, but he occasionally raised his front and rear paws, as if commanding her to "haven't wiped it clean yet", until he smelled that there was no more odor on his body, he raised his head and said in a reserved manner. go away.

Le Ning shook his head and smiled on the spot.

I don’t know what’s going on with my silly cat. Other cats lick their fur every day when they have nothing to do to clean themselves up. Only her family, Sesame, has never licked their fur, and I don’t know if it is. He left his mother when he was young, and has never hunted before. Occasionally, he would get into a corner and get dirty, and would trot towards her and meow.

Signal her: Shit shoveler, wipe this cutie clean!

Le Ning has never seen the changes in the cat after it was born, so he has never doubted that his cat owner is abnormal, and even enjoys that Zhima relies on him so much.

Just like now, she washed the towel and hung it up to dry again, then entered the room, as soon as Fang lay down, the fluff ball got into her arms, Le Ning raised her hand to smooth her hair from the neck, Xiao Channel:

"I will have an audience with the palace tomorrow, and I don't know what a saint looks like. This is the first time I've seen the emperor."

Hearing what she said, Lu Wanzhen turned her head to look at her, and after a while raised the pads of her front paws and pressed them perfunctorily on her face, as a comfort: I have seen it many times, don't worry, my two ladies are fine very...

Le Ning was stepped on the face by the pink and tender meat pad with soft fluff, and the whole person was so happy that he couldn't help but raised his hand to hold Lu Wanzhen's front paw, and put it to his lips for a kiss, suppressing his excitement road:

"Wuuu Zhima, I love you too, please step on me again, please?"

Lu Wanzhen: "..."

She retracted her claws with a face full of resistance, turned her head away, and hesitated again whether she had found the wrong person, why not go to the southwest to find other normal people?

Thinking of this, Lu Wanzhen's tail swayed from side to side involuntarily.

When Le Ning saw it, a smile appeared on the corner of his lips, he tightened his arms a little, and fell into a deep sleep like this.

……

The next day.

Le Ning and Zou Dequan entered the palace together. Zhima didn't know if she was too dependent on her. She had been squatting on her shoulders since the morning, and couldn't pull it off. In the end, Le Ning had no choice but to tell Mao Mao over and over again. Can't run around.

however……

Mao Mao was stopped outside the palace gate.

The guards knew Zou Dequan's identity, and even recognized the rumored talented apprentice beside him, so they didn't make it too difficult for the two of them, and just said in a business-like way: "There is an order in the palace, and now there are no raccoons or dogs. Put this little raccoon slave with me, and wait for you to leave the palace..."

Le Ning regrets that he didn't find a craftsman to make a leash. Now he has been worried for a long time, and he is afraid of delaying the time to enter the palace. In the end, he can only reluctantly leave a few dried fish and some money for the guards, asking him to help take care of them.

From the beginning to the end, Lu Wanzhen squatted at her feet, as if he was very obedient, and he was rooting here waiting for her to come back.

When Lu Wanzhen ran out of the palace in fright, it was a time when there was chaos in the palace, and she happened to find a small hole to get out. When she realized something was wrong and wanted to go back to the palace to see the situation, the small hole had already been blocked by the palace people, so She can only wander in Wang'an City.

Now... is the closest she is to returning to the East Palace.

Lu Wanzhen waited patiently, and was even teased by the guards when they were taking a break after changing shifts. He ate the dried fish with a face of indifference, until the other party relaxed his attention, a shadow disappeared and slipped into the palace without a sound. .

She remembered the direction of the East Palace, thinking about the news she had heard when she was running around in the neighborhood recently, knowing that her body must still be in the East Palace at this moment, so she hid the guards all the way and headed towards the destination.

Although the kitten's physical strength is good, when Lu Wanzhen went to the East Palace without stopping, he was still paralyzed in the grass panting tiredly when he jumped off the windowsill.

Staring at the window railing of his dormitory for a while, Lu Wanzhen finally regained his strength——

At the same time, there was some movement outside:

"Quickly, look around here. The sage has an order that no raccoon slaves in the palace are allowed to approach and bump into His Royal Highness. I just saw the shadow of a raccoon slave flashing past..."

Lu Wanzhen jumped up in fright, and quickly jumped into the room to try to hide under the bed, but after entering the room, he found that there was only one person in the room.

The man was wearing a large black prince's uniform, and there were all kinds of delicacies made of chicken in front of him. He was pulling a fish and eating it on the carpet without paying attention to the image. Hearing her movement, the figure who was pulling the fish gave a meal. , the eyes of the two immediately met.

In the next moment, Lu Wanzhen and the cat were startled by their own image at the same time, each of them let out a "meow" cry, turned around and ran away!

……

now.

Ganlu Temple.

"Are you Zou Dequan's new apprentice?" After Lu Yining asked Zou Dequan about spicy food, he glanced at Le Ning who was standing beside him, and the topic changed.

Le Ning could barely remember the rules of the countless Gongdou dramas he had seen in his mind, his eyes were lowered, he was surprised that the emperor was a woman, but he didn't show it on his face, and said obediently: "Yes, saint, grass-roots Le Ning."

Lu Yining thought of the many compliments Zou Dequan had just said to this son. She had always had a good impression of a talented and well-behaved child, so she praised him as "young and promising", and then said:

"The empress likes the tofu you made very much, and I have promised to meet you with you——Congratulations, and lead Le Shiro to the Lizheng Palace."

She said to the palace man who was serving her closely.

Le Ning looked up at Zou Dequan, and when he noticed some encouragement in his eyes, he relaxed and followed the eunuch curiously to the Lizheng Hall.

Then, Le Ning met the most beautiful woman since she came to this world.

Zhou Xianhua was dressed in a bright red uniform, and was sitting at a stone table in the courtyard lazily resting her chin with one hand. There was a jade bowl in front of her. Her bare hands complemented the ivory cloth she held between her fingers. They were all creamy in color, almost shimmering.

After hearing the transmission from the servant, Zhou Yuanhua turned his head, took a look at Le Ning, and narrowed his eyes——

At that moment, Le Ning actually had a thrilling feeling, not only being photographed by her appearance, but also captured by her gaze.

But the sudden scrutiny quickly disappeared, and Zhou Xianhua showed a smile on his face, beckoning to her:

"I recently heard that 'tofu' is popular in Wang'an City, and it was produced by Mr. Xiao Lang. Although I was prepared, I never thought Mr. Xiao Lang would be so young."

"Caomin has seen the queen!" Le Ning bowed his head to salute the queen, and then approached.

"You don't need to be too polite. A cook in the palace has made some fresh sweet cakes for me recently. Would you like to try them?" Zhou Yuanhua put the plate of peach blossom cakes in front of Le Ning.

Le Ning didn't know what the queen meant, but thanked obediently, then picked up the pastry that was made into a peach blossom light pink on the plate, and took a small bite——

The sweetness of peach blossom spreads between the lips and teeth along with the faint sweetness, the sweet filling inside spreads, and the residual heat and sweetness melts on the tip of her tongue, the honey smell flows into the stomach along the throat, and is brought out by the sweetness The sense of satisfaction spread in my heart.

Desserts always bring joy no matter the time of day.

However, it is not easy to obtain sweetness in this dynasty.

Le Ning lowered his head in thought, and unconsciously took another bite. Zhou Yuanhua couldn't help laughing when he saw that she was seriously thinking about this pastry. It seems that this time the fellow is a culinary idiot.

Of course, that's fine too, if there is a master who is troublesome and unwilling to settle down, she will have to stare more.

Zhou Xianhua let him ponder. After a while, he was about to talk to her about the folk molasses, when he suddenly saw a maid from the Eastern Palace hurrying over, saying something excitedly to her palace servants at the door.

Zhou Xianhua immediately summoned that person and asked, "But what's wrong with the East Palace?"

The palace attendant had a joyful expression on his face, he managed to suppress his mood, whispered in Zhou Xianhua's ear: "Madam, the crown prince has recovered, and the palace attendant said that he wants to see Auntie!"

Zhou Yuanhua's eyebrows twitched, and there was a smile at the end of his eyes, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

"That's right, I'm going to take a look."

As she said that, she looked at Le Ning apologetically, and rewarded her with the remaining pastries, then ordered a few palace servants and went to the East Palace together.

……

Inside the East Palace.

Lu Wanzhen's previous arrival caused a lot of chaos. She originally wanted to hide under the bed and observe carefully, but she didn't know that the previous noise was too loud and attracted the servants of the palace. Scratching and scratching, as if insane.

The palace servants were so frightened that they dropped all the jugs in their hands.

Then, Lu Wanzhen saw the guy who was wearing his own clothes and looked like him with his hands on the ground, leaning over to sniff and sniff on the scattered wine. Seeing this scene, Lu Wanzhen turned his head away in despair , I don't want to see my shameful appearance.

Unexpectedly, just as she turned her head away, she felt dizzy——

After she woke up, Lu Wanzhen realized that the world had turned upside down again.

She raised her hand to block the light, but found the black sleeves covering her wrists. She was stunned, but heard the helpless discussions of the palace people:

"His Royal Highness fainted just now, what should I do?"

"Let's report it to the saint. The matter is so important that I dare not hide it."

Lu Wanzhen clenched her fist, saw her hand move, and then... she fell into the ecstasy of finally recovering!

Zhennan Zicheng does not bully her!

So, Lu Wanzhen cleared his throat, and heard himself say hoarsely:

"Red Sleeve, Green Pearl, invite my Aunt here."

Hearing her voice, the palace servant who was discussing the solution couldn't help being startled, but the back was full of excitement and said:

"Your Highness!"

"His Royal Highness!"

Lu Wanzhen propped up the bed, sat up with that slightly dizzy feeling, hooked the corners of his lips, and said:

"I am back."

At the same time, a familiar raccoon came out from under her bed and let out a blank voice: "Meow?"

The author has something to say: Lu Wanzhen:

I, Hu Hansan, are back again! ! !

Posted late today woo woo woo, will you still love me? QQ
