I am the cook, but I am Li Er's son-in-law

Everything at the court meeting has nothing to do with Zhou Xiaosan.

He hasn't officially started working yet.

Even if it was related, Zhou Xiaosan still couldn't listen to it, his mind was a little messy now, thinking of Da Lang's so-and-so, and thinking of the identities of these people, his scalp was numb.

When the court meeting was over, Zhou Xiaosan cheered up and planned to go over to tell the shopkeeper the "shocking" news.

But he was stopped by the eunuch, saying that His Majesty wanted to see him.

His Majesty?

Zhou Xiaosan became nervous, even though he was no stranger to that man, had drank wine with him, and even played mahjong together in the past few days.

But at that time, I didn't know his identity!

Before Zhou Xiaosan could sort out his mood, he was brought in front of Li Shimin.

"How do you feel seeing me?" Li Shimin was in a happy mood, with a touch of teasing.

Zhou Xiaosan pursed his lips and made a salute: "I greet Your Majesty."

Li Shimin waved his hand: "I called you here to tell you that although you have learned some skills from the store, you have only been an official for two years, and you need to polish it."

Zhou Xiaosan sang aloud.

Li Shimin went on to say: "These two days are still telling you."

"I don't want you to tell the shopkeeper my identity."

Li Shimin and Zhou Xiaosan's eyes met.

Zhou Xiaosan took a deep breath, then cupped his hands and asked, "Your Majesty, why do you want to hide it from the store?"

Li Shimin knocked on the table, shook his head, and said softly: "Since you are an insider, I will not hide it from you."

"In the beginning, I just heard that the store is interesting and the craftsmanship is good, so I wanted to go and have a look, but then when I got in touch with it——you know, the store owner is a capable person."

"But he doesn't want to be an official in the court, so I just want to know why he doesn't want to."

"There is no one in the world who can disobey me."

"But I want him to be my subject willingly, and I want him to be my son-in-law willingly."

Zhou Xiaosan had no expression on his face, and sang again.

Li Shimin had nothing to say to him, so Zhou Xiaosan also bid farewell. On the way back, Zhou Xiaosan closed his eyes and sorted out his chaotic thoughts.

Do you want to tell Da Lang the news?
Li Shimin called him over and told him the news himself, instead of just asking someone to come over and relay it to him.Although Zhou Xiaosan has just stepped into the officialdom, things like worldly sophistication will not change much.

That is
In front of Zhou Xiaosan is an opportunity, an opportunity that many people dream of but can't get. If he doesn't tell Yin Xuan, then he will really become Li Shimin's direct descendant.

There will certainly not be any major obstacles to being promoted in the future.

But this also has a problem - that is, doing this is equivalent to abandoning the relationship between himself and Yin Xuan.

Did he choose Li Shimin, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, or did he choose the county man who ran a restaurant?

Zhou Xiaosan opened his eyes, yelled for the carriage, and went to Huaizhen Square.

He's already made up his mind.

The night has begun to be dark, and it always gets dark quickly in the middle of winter, and there are not many customers in the restaurants. Most of them are eating hot pot and playing cards in the chessboard teahouse.

To the second floor that has not yet been repaired.

Empty and without sparks, it looks very cold.

Zhou Xiaosan did not take off his court clothes, Yin Xuan sized him up and nodded: "It seems that you have been promoted again?"

"Not bad, congratulations."

Zhou Xiaosan's face was wrinkled, he wasn't very happy, he took a deep breath: "Da Lang, I have something to tell you, don't be afraid."

Yin Xuan nodded: "Tell me, I'm brave and I won't be afraid."

Zhou Xiaosan took another deep breath: "Your future father-in-law is the current emperor."

Yin Xuan blinked and blinked: "Who is the old man?"

Zhou Xiaosan became a little anxious, and waved his hand: "He is not someone, he is the father of the little ladies who are learning from behind you, the emperor and emperor of the Tang Dynasty."

Seeing Zhou Xiaosan's anxious face, Yin Xuan chuckled and waved his hands: "Don't worry, I knew what you said early on."

Zhou Xiaosan was stunned: "Your Majesty told you, but... before I left the palace, he also told me not to tell Da Lang his identity."

Yin Xuan shook his head: "He didn't tell me."

"They never told me about their identities, and they all thought they could hide it from me, but the first day Li Shimin came, I knew his identity."

Zhou Xiaosan was stunned again.

Already know?
It can be seen from Yin Xuan's attitude that he doesn't seem to know Li Shimin's identity
"Do you think I don't respect him enough?" Yin Xuan asked back.

Zhou Xiaosan nodded blankly.

Yin Xuan waved his hand and said with a smile: "But before you knew his identity, would you have this feeling?"

Zhou Xiaosan hesitated for a moment, then shook his head. Before they knew about Li Shimin, the relationship between the two of them would not make people feel any discord.

Laughing and cursing are all exchanges with each other, isn't that how some friends get along with each other?

"He's the emperor, what does it have to do with me?" Yin Xuan spread his hands and sat down on the wooden shelf, "He's hiding his identity, so he's just an ordinary eater, a little eighth-rank official .”

"I don't want to enter the court, why are you so worried about him?"

"Are you tired?"

Zhou Xiaosan nodded and breathed a sigh of relief: "I still worried a lot for Da Lang, it seems that my efforts were wasted."

Yin Xuan shook his head, his eyes were full of satisfaction: "It's good that you have this kind of heart."

He is very satisfied with Zhou Xiaosan, this person can continue to use him.

"You come here with such a high profile, those Qianniu guards outside the door will definitely report to Li Shimin when they go back." Yin Xuan knocked on the wooden block next to him and said softly, "You have to keep climbing, at least I need you to keep climbing. "

"So you are here today, just to tell me the good news, and you want to learn more from me in the future."

"do you understand?"

Zhou Xiaosan nodded again and again: "Understood." He hesitated for a moment, then asked again: "But Da Lang, I'm here to look for you, will Your Majesty believe that I didn't tell you his identity?"

Yin Xuan sighed: "He is the emperor, he won't believe anything you say, he will only believe what he sees with his own eyes."

"What was my attitude towards him before, and what will be my attitude towards him in the future."

"If he sees my attitude, he will naturally believe your words."

With that said, Yin Xuan paused.

"However, you have to show a little guilty attitude towards me, for example, if you pay a small amount for ordering food, you can just make up for it."

"This will make it more solid that you didn't tell me the truth."
