Gu Ye entered the palace half an hour earlier than usual.

After entering the palace, he did not go to Wenhua Palace as usual, but went to Yangxin Palace.

Emperor Zheng Yuan didn't have to go to court early this day, but he got up earlier than Gu Ye, and has been doing official business for a while.

Gu Ye went to the front of the hall in a proper manner and asked Qian Sansi to pass it on.

In the back, Emperor Zhengyuan called him in. Although his eyes did not leave the memorial, he said with a smile, "You are a rare boy today. I heard from Mr. Xiaowen and the others that you recently But they are all in the Wenhua Palace. I woke up early today."

Gu Ye scratched his head and smiled, "I've been snoozing so much lately, and I've grown so much, do you think I've grown taller?"

"It's really grown a lot, and finally looks like a seven-year-old child."

Speaking of this, this incident is also the heart of Emperor Zhengyuan. There are three sons. Lu Zhao is the insufficiency brought out of his mother's womb, and he is doted on by Queen Zhou, so he looks like a swaddled baby.

Although both Gu Ye and Lu Xu are alive and kicking, one is a premature child because of their hardships in the early years, and they are both thinner than their peers.

Now Gu Ye has grown a little taller, wearing a light blue little python robe, a black belt around his waist, a suet pendant hanging from the belt, and a small hat that he often wears in winter. Take it off, revealing a soft top of hair tied into a small tug.

How to look and how to please!

Gu Ye showed it to him generously, and then asked with a smile, "How is it? Do I look good in this dress today?"

Everything on him was rewarded by Emperor Zhengyuan, and Emperor Zhengyuan naturally nodded and said yes.

Gu Ye stood next to the dragon table again, rolled up his sleeves, revealing two rounded arms, and raised his hands to help Emperor Zheng Yuan to polish the ink.

Emperor Zheng Yuan couldn't help laughing when he saw it: "So you are not only tall, but also a lot fatter."

Gu Ye still replied hehehe: "It's called a lucky sign!"

Emperor Zheng Yuan reached out and took the ink stick in his hand, and said with a smile: "Tell me, what's the matter?"

"What's the matter! This is not to show your filial piety."

Emperor Zheng Yuan touched his nose with a hand and said with a loud laugh: "Zhizi Mo Ruofu, you are not so well-behaved. What's the matter?"

Gu Ye then touched his nose and said, "It's not a big deal, I just heard from the palace servants that you ordered someone to clean up the Xiefang Hall and prepare for Lu Xu and I to move in there."

Emperor Zheng Yuan nodded. No one in the palace knows the news. Gu Ye knew that it was Qian Sansi who reminded him earlier, saying that although Gu Ye was named a king and opened a mansion, he was not too old. There should be a place to stay in the palace, so Emperor Zhengyuan can let someone tell him the news. After all, he has to stay overnight from time to time, so he must ask him.

Emperor Zheng Yuan nodded, "That's what it means."

Gu Ye went on to say: "Look at the size of the Xiefang Hall, Lu Xu and I must be a bit deserted, and I don't live in the palace every day. It looks like a skinned monkey, but it's not even four years old. I'm just afraid that he's afraid... Look, are you also preparing a room for Feng Yu? They are cousins ​​after all. With him looking after him, Xiao Lu Xu will not be able to. would be scared."

"That's right." Emperor Zhengyuan nodded with a smile, "Our King Lie has really grown, and we know how to help my brother think."

Gu Ye's fair face was slightly red, and he added: "Of course I will not hide it from you, it is mainly for my selfishness, my son really likes Feng Yu and wants to get along with him more. get along."

Although Feng Yu is an outsider, she is not very old, and it is not a big deal to be the prince's companion in the dorm palace.

Emperor Zheng Yuan nodded in agreement, Gu Ye saluted and thanked him, but did not rush to leave.

It will be annoying if you hide it, so Gu Ye said: "There is one more thing, as the examiners of this year's Enke, Mr. Wen and the others have been busy in the past few days, son It was really unbearable to see it.”

In the last few years of the previous dynasty, although the imperial examinations were carried out as usual, many students like Xu Qingchuan, either seeing that their former vitality was about to run out, or unwilling to use them, suspend the imperial examinations. .

After the establishment of the new dynasty, the atmosphere of the court and the life of the people were much better than before.

The first world of Enke in the new dynasty, the students all over the world are eager to show their strength, and the number of references is really large.

Emperor Zheng Yuan selected twenty Hanlin as the same examiner.

And Wen Lang from the Wen family also ended this time, so Mr. Wen and Mr. Wen did not participate.

Two or three hours.

After a little thought, Emperor Zheng Yuan knew that what Gu Ye said was true.

But this time he didn't promise, instead he frowned and pondered, after a while, he said: "The manpower is indeed not enough, so let's go, you don't have any errands right now, go back to the April Palace exam, you Follow along."

Gu Ye was taken aback by what Emperor Zhengyuan said, and said quickly: "I've only read for a few days, how can I be qualified to intervene in this kind of thing? I'm so young..."

"It's just for you to help supervise, not for the examiner who raises your case today and becomes their teacher." There was no one else in the hall, so Emperor Zhengyuan said directly: "Our family has a shallow foundation. , Most of the officials in the DPRK are from the previous dynasty. Except for Mrs. Wen, the rest of them are not very trustworthy. And the people selected by Enke this time are the ones who can really be used in our family, so we have to be cautious. . In order to prevent the former officials from practicing favoritism and fraud, I will repeat the same mistakes in the past. There should be a royal person in it to assist and supervise. There are so many people in our family, who are you not going to?”

The population of the Lu family is simple, and women are not allowed to take part in politics, so only Emperor Zhengyuan and three princes are left.

Although Gu Ye has been a prince for a short time, but since he has been with Emperor Zhengyuan, when he encounters some things that he does not understand very well, Emperor Zhengyuan will break it apart, smash it and tell him.

So while he became more and more convinced of the emperor's father, he also gradually became aware of some affairs in the court.

"Then I'll go there on behalf of our family?" Gu Ye scratched his head, "I understand what you said, but I'm just embarrassed. I wish I was a few years older, people It won't make fun of me."

Emperor Zheng Yuan smiled and said nothing.

Although among the three sons now, Zhengyuan Emperor is indeed the most favorite of Gu Ye. But he will only be seven years old next month, and his family will only be under a year, and it will not be that time.

Gu Ye said that he was too young, in fact, his age was just right, he knew that he was going to act as a mascot, and although it would make the ministers guess, it would not cause endless trouble Storm comes.

After laughing, Emperor Zheng Yuan paused and asked him, "That's not what you meant? Then what are you doing, Sir Tiwen?"

"I just want you to give Mr. Wen a half-day vacation, and it just so happens that I'm going away too."

Emperor Zheng Yuan:…

This kid is not here to claim power, he just wants to be lazy!

The prince in the palace studied harder than the outside world. As soon as it was dawn, he learned that the sky was dark, and there was an hour in the middle.

Master Wen and others report the performance of several children every day, not to mention Lu Xu, he spends less time awake in class and more time falling asleep.

Gu Ye and Feng Yu are both very serious about their studies, but Feng Yu has been trained so carefully since childhood, and has long been used to it. And Gu Ye grew up in a free-range manner, but he was able to persevere with willpower, which was even more commendable.

"Then take the rest of the next ten days and move it for half a day to today." Emperor Zhengyuan glanced at him, "But it is only half a day, and Xiefang Hall can be cleaned up before the end of the month. Come out, you will need to live from time to time in the future, and then you will have someone arrange it yourself, in March you have your birthday, and in April you are busy with the palace exam, so you can’t miss your homework, and some are busy.”

Gu Ye smiled and thanked him repeatedly, saying that he promised not to slack off.

When he was about to leave, Emperor Zhengyuan said again: "Take Axu with you."

Although Gu Ye didn't say what he was going to do today, but Emperor Zhengyuan knew a little about him now, thinking that there must be something fun to do, so this kid came to leave before dawn .

Gu Ye nodded and said: "I can save it, you don't say I have to bring him."

He said "I have to", not "I will", because since that day, after going out of the city once, the little crying bag Lu Xu has been entangled with the brother Gu Ye.

Lu Xu often fell asleep in class, and Lu Xu asked him to make up lessons during the lunch break. When encountering what Mr. said he did not understand, he also asked his brother. When he was hungry in the afternoon, he didn't look for a wet nurse, and consciously went to take out the small snacks and dried meat in Gu Ye's purse.

Gu Ye's "willpower" that was always praised by the gentlemen was actually forced by Lu Xu for a large part.

After leaving the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Gu Ye brought the news back to Wenhua Hall, saying that he could go out to play in the palace in the afternoon.

At this time, before the morning class started, Lu Xu had already dozed off. Hearing the news, he was no longer sleepy, and quickly asked him: "What are you going to do this time? ? Or play something else?"

He kept asking questions, but Gu Ye didn't dare to say anything. Said he was afraid that he would be asked until noon.

."

Feng Yu was in a very bad mood these few days - because he heard the people in the house accidentally mention that Qin Shi was re-marrying his father.

Although it was her mother who brought up reconciliation, how long has it been since then? It's been less than a month, which is way too soon.

He felt a little awkward in his heart, but as a junior, he was not easy to talk about and wanted to talk to his father in private.

On the day of Heli, Feng Yuan acted so dejected. He was also very depressed for more than half a month. Province. Even when Feng Yu became the eldest son of the emperor, he didn't show too much reaction.

On that day he was rarely sober, but he just said: "Marriage is the order of the parents and the matchmaker's word. Back then, my father and your mother didn't have that, and we ended up in this situation. So this time Listen to your grandmother. No matter what, you are the eldest son of our family, no matter who you marry again, it will not affect your status."

Although Feng Yu was brought up by Ge Zhuer and was the closest to her, the three of them were still very harmonious before the opening of the Duke Lu's mansion.

As a son, he has some admiration for his father.

However, I heard that Feng Yuan attributed his and Ge Zhuer's unhappiness to the lack of parents' orders, the matchmaker's words, and also said that the re-marriage was as common as eating and drinking, as if with him It doesn't matter - not only for being irresponsible to himself, but also for the woman who will marry in the future.

The last bit of admiration in Feng Yu's heart also disappeared.

That house, he really wanted to never go back.

Feng Yu's tense expression loosened a little when he heard that he could see his mother today, Gu Ye then asked him to be Emperor Yuan, and asked him to set up a place for Feng Yu in the palace things said.

If you live in the palace like this, that is, only during the ten-day vacation, Feng Yu needs to go back to the Duke of Lu.

Other times he lived in the palace, even the Qin family didn't dare to say anything.

Feng Yu's heart was hot, and he looked at Gu Ye for a long time without saying a word.

He didn't tell Gu Ye about the troubles at home, and he didn't have to let him be troubled along with him, but Gu Ye had always been unhappy these days, and when he asked, he just said that there was something at home Son, he doesn't feel comfortable.

I didn't expect it to be just that sentence, Gu Ye listened to it, and specially asked to go to the imperial court.

Feng Yu's heart was warm and grateful. For a while, he didn't know what to say. He only thought that if he had a brother of the same mother, it would be nothing more than that!

Gu Ye, like his mother, doesn't like to thank you, so before Feng Yu could speak again, he reached out and tapped Feng Yu's shoulder, "We brothers don't talk politely. "

Feng Yu smiled and nodded seriously.

At noon, Gu Ye took Feng Yu and Lu Xu to Taibai Street again.

Although Lu Xu has only been here once, he has a very good memory, he recognized it when he reached the street, and muttered, "Why is it here again? ."

Muttering and muttering, Lu Xu thought of Shang Hui Yin and took her out of the city to play, wiped his sweat, made him such a delicious vegetable rice... In fact, he did not dislike it, and he did not say that it would definitely be noisy. To change places to play.

"This time is different!" Gu Ye didn't hide it from him, "this time my restaurant has a new drama and a spicy food festival. There are good-looking and delicious, isn't it fun?"

The drama and the food festival, Lu Xu had never heard of it, and his eyes lit up immediately.

When the carriage stopped, he stepped on the footstool and got off the carriage with Gu Ye and the others.

The Taibai Street was so crowded today that the guards who had been hiding in the dark all the year round had to show up, and surrounded Gu Ye and a few people to the restaurant.

Gu Ye came to cheer for his mother. Seeing so many people, he didn't feel inconvenient, but happy.

The gate of Shiweitian has been specially decorated, and there are many dried chili peppers strung in a string on the door. From a distance, it is red and bright, which is particularly gratifying.

This is not enough, Gu Yin also made two sets of plush doll suits in the shape of cartoon peppers, so that the two little apprentices in the back kitchen could wear them and distribute flyers.

Lu Xu couldn't move his legs when he saw the "chili man" at the interface, and circled around him for several times, even wanting him to take it off and put it on for him.

Fortunately, he can listen to Gu Ye's words now. Gu Ye told him that this doll suit is made according to an adult's body. There was nothing fun in the box, and he said that the real fun was still in the restaurant, and finally persuaded him to leave.

After passing by the "Pepper Man", Lu Xu looked at the flyer in his hand.

When he finally got to the door of the restaurant, Gu Ye found that not all the pedestrians on the street were coming towards his restaurant, and there were many people walking towards the end of the street looking at the sky tower.

He was very strange, and he sounded like shopkeeper Zhou.

Treasurer Zhou explained the whole story to them.

It turned out that after Shiweitian posted a notice that day, Wang Tianlou at the end of the street posted a similar one. It was also a food festival, and it was also a spicy theme. , said it is definitely the lowest price in the whole capital.

Totally only the two of them have a spicy food festival. Wangtianlou said that it was compared with the whole capital.

Wangtian Tower relies on the back of Lu Guogong's mansion and has strong capital. Since its opening, it has been hurting people and the price is ridiculously low.

Although it didn't shake the foundation of food, it was like a flea, biting people from time to time without pain or itching, very disgusting.

Gu Ye frowned.

Just as Gu Yin heard that they were coming, she came out to greet them. Seeing that he was still worried, she reached out and nodded his eyebrows.

"You frown at a young age, but don't frown when you are a teenager."

Seeing that there was no worry on her face, Gu Ye knew that she must have a solution, so he immediately raised his brows and said with a smile, "Mother talk to me."

Gu Yin said to him directly: "You know the origin of that pepper, right?"

Gu Ye nodded, "Uncle helped the mother to win it back."

"So, for our family, this is basically nothing, and Mr. Yang and I have inquired clearly that the selected peppers are suitable for local planting, and will not be used in the future. It's expensive like it used to be. I like silver money, but I'm not that into the money, so this time, the price of spicy food is half of the original price."

Gu Ye was still groping for the affairs of the imperial court, but he knew everything about the business, and immediately understood—

The cost of their own chili peppers is low, and they do not point to this to make unscrupulous money, so they take the path of small profits but quick turnover.

The pepper was won by Gu Yin by chance a few days ago. No matter how well-informed the Feng family is, they will not get the news immediately.

Wangtianlou didn't know this, and it was still the same price as usual, and it was still prepared to take the path of hurting people, boasting about Haikou in advance, saying that the lowest price is guaranteed.

Their peppers are naturally bought from the market. Even if they buy enough, they are lower than the market price, but they are not comparable to their own.

Liu's family only planted peppers once, and the quantity was definitely not enough to impact the entire pepper market and lower the average price.

Gu Yin knew this for a long time, so she didn't worry about it at all. Later, she asked the shopkeeper Zhou to set a deadline on the notice, saying that she would do it for ten days and a half months. Sure enough, Wangtianlou Immediately updated the notice, claiming to be the longest food festival in Beijing, and turned around and began to search for peppers, and bought a huge amount.

The more you sell, the more you will lose, which will definitely hurt your vitality!

Gu Ye also brought other people over, Gu Yin saw that he had understood and didn't say more, and greeted Feng Yu and Lu Xu to go to the fifth floor to watch the new drama.

But seeing that Lu Xu didn't stay where he was, he was looking around the store with novelty.

Spicy Chicken, Spicy Shrimp, Boiled Pork Slices, Mao Xuewang, Spicy Crispy Fish…

Various novel dishes and strong aromas impacted little Lu Xu.

He went from table to table and asked what they were eating, was it delicious?

Guests see him as young and clever, and when asked, they will answer him with a straight breath.

Gu Yin went to apologize to everyone, and immediately pulled Lu Xu aside.

"Aunt Roujiamo," Lu Xu called to her, and then noticed Gu Ye's unhappy gaze, he quickly changed the title again, "Auntie, I have never seen these dishes before. , you asked me to make one of each for me to eat."

Gu Yin shook her head and couldn't tell, naturally not because she was stingy with food, but explained to him: "These dishes are too spicy and not good for the stomach, you can't eat more at your age. Stomach hurts."

Lu Xu pursed her lips and looked at her, tears welling up in her eyes.

They did not have lunch. Gu Yin asked people to prepare meals for them, taking care of Lu Xu, who is curious about everything but really can't eat spicy food. After she went there in person Chef, made two dishes with less spicy food and brought them out.

Two dishes were quickly brought to the table, the same is not very authentic diced spicy chicken-that is, fried chicken rice crackers with dried peppers, peppers are used as flavor and embellishment, chicken rice crackers are not What a spiciness.

, and finally add tofu and simmer for half an hour, sprinkle with sugar and serve.

Gu Yin put very little chili sauce, so although it looks red in Mapo Tofu, it is actually not spicy.

Lu Xu had already prepared a small bowl and waited at the dinner table, because the restaurant was really busy, so Gu Yin served them dishes in person.

When the two spicy dishes were served, Gu Yin turned around and went to the kitchen to fry vegetables for them, and by the time they came back, all three of them had eaten.

The oily, smooth and tender tofu and the salty and slightly spicy minced meat are mixed into the rice, and then one bite of the crispy chicken rice crackers, the rice in everyone's bowl is very fast It's half way down.

Gu Yin put the stir-fried cabbage on the table and asked the three of them to eat some more vegetables.

When they were full and put down the tableware, the plate of spicy chicken on the table contained only dried chili peppers, and the mapo tofu was completely eaten.

How about half-sized children eat poor Laozi? What Gu Yin made for them was extra large!

At this time, the afternoon drama is checking tickets.

The tickets are still pre-sale this time, and they will be sold out before the show starts.

The afternoon session was still filled with those regular customers. Of course, Gu Ye still had the privilege as a young boss, so he temporarily added two chairs, and the three of them sat huddled together.

After sitting down, the curtain slowly opened, Chu Manrong in a white gauze skirt and Xiao Fengge Pingting in a small red gauze robe appeared gracefully.

In one sentence, they explained their origins as fairies.

Although he didn't understand, he also helped his sister to chase others, but because he didn't understand many worldly rules, he made a lot of ridiculous jokes.

In the first half of the story, there is a sense of ease and joy, and in the middle, a demon who claims to be righteous comes out and fights with two fox spirits.

This is the section that can best show the stage effect. The effects of wind and thunder are all pediatrics.

However, modern metal ropes that are both light and strong are not easy to handle, so the rope tied to the actor is a hemp rope as thick as a thumb.

Fortunately, the auditorium is still a certain distance from the stage, and the rope is painted black, and Chu Manrong and Xiaofeng are extremely light, at first glance, it really seems to be Flying in the air.

And they all know that this flat and flying sky is fake. Nowadays, audiences are not so disgusted with wearing gangs, so they only think it is novel, but no one is picky.

Only Lu Xu really didn't know. She watched Chu Manrong and Brother Xiaofeng flying around, and she kept making a "wow wow" sound in her mouth.

At the end of a play, Lu Xu still wanted to beg Gu Ye to take him backstage, he wanted to learn Feitian with others!

After Gu Ye waited for him to see the props, the little guy finally knew that it was fake, it was just a stage effect.

After the play ended, it was getting late outside, and it was time for Lu Xu to return to the palace.

Feng Yu found an opportunity to talk to Ge Zhuer as early as when he was fascinated by it.

Speaking of what happened in the mansion of the Duke of Lu, Ge Zhuer was more open than he thought, comforting him for a long time, Feng Yu felt more relaxed.

It was indeed a very fun day. When Lu Xu went back, he told everyone that he had watched a very good drama.

He is like this, and so are others.

The special effects drama of Shiweitian has been widely acclaimed after its launch, and it has attracted a large number of strangers who have never been here before.

Since the guests watched the drama here, and it was dinner time when the show was over, most of them would stay for dinner.

The guests who are attracted by the Spicy Food Festival will be able to watch novel and special dramas directly when they hear people talking about the fifth floor, and naturally they will also think of pastime after dinner.

The food festival and the new drama have formed a mutual feeding situation.

The first and second floors, which had been sluggish for a long time, are booming again. Gu Yin is in the store every day counting the accounts, and she can't help but laugh.

Too many, everyone has given too much!

Treasurer Zhou is also in a good mood, but occasionally he can’t help but mumble, saying that if Wangtianlou deliberately lowered the price and copied and imitated, the profit would be doubled.

When she mentioned this, Gu Yin laughed even harder. She really wanted to know Wangtianlou's accounts—how much money they lost!
