Princess, how am I from you?

"Father" Tang Jianri greeted his father respectfully when he saw his father enter the house.

Yuzhang was too busy thinking about the reason for Guan Xin's unhappiness, but didn't notice that Tang Shanshi had already entered the room, and it was Ri'er's voice that brought her back to her thoughts. "The son-in-law is ready to eat at this time."

"It's already been used. Tomorrow the Goguryeo Mission will be in Beijing. I'm afraid it will be busy for a while. I'll come and see you and Ri'er when I have some free time today." Tang Shanshi kept looking at his wife, but it was a pity that the other party His gaze always seldom rests on him.

Seeing that his son had finished eating the rice in the bowl, Yuzhang called for Nuan Yi to remove the food from the table.It wasn't until he rinsed his mouth after the meal that he said, "Your son-in-law has been very tired recently, you should pay attention to rest."

"Missing Princess Lao. The princess is doing well recently, and her complexion seems to be much better than before. It seems that I should thank that Miss Guan."

"It's better than before." It's like this every time, the polite ones don't seem to be husband and wife, but she can't make her get closer to the son-in-law.

As for whether the son-in-law stayed overnight, Guan Xin didn't pay attention or inquire about it. She was afraid of hearing an answer she didn't want to hear, so she was heartbroken.She wants to temporarily put her extra thoughts on her career and the people around Yuzhang. The strategy of encircling the city from the countryside can be modified here, and it may be applicable to encircling the center from the periphery.After closing the door, he made a pinyin alphabet for Tang Jianri, and took a copy of Thousand Characters to mark the pinyin one by one, and kept it for later use.Then she continued to write a part of the unfinished Sui and Tang Dynasties according to the version of the TV series she had watched, and planned to take it to a restaurant for the storyteller to continue telling.I was busy until very late, and I didn't fall asleep until I was too tired.

She didn't go to the main house when she got up in the morning. She told Nuanxin Nuanyi to urge Yuzhang to run. She herself went directly to the restaurant after washing up. Snails, if you can't see it when you shrink in the shell, it's as if it didn't happen.

"The girl came early today, but I have something to order." Shopkeeper Wang just opened the door.Just as he was instructing the waiter to clean up the tables and chairs, Guan Xin walked over listlessly.

"It's okay, just come and have a look. I haven't been here for two days. What happened in the building?"

"Everything is as usual, there is nothing special. If I have to say yes, it is that the Changyi princess came to look for the girl yesterday. Seeing that the girl was not there, he went back after listening to the song. The villain asked the princess if he needed to send a message , The princess said that there is no need to send a message, so the villain didn't send anyone to inform the girl."

"Well, I see. Last time I asked you to collect the eggs and duck eggs, how much did you take?" I thought it wouldn't be a big deal, it was nothing more than gossiping, chatting, or forcing her to tell a story.

"There are a hundred catties already, I don't know if it's enough, girl, please come with me."

Shopkeeper Wang led Guan Xin into the backyard, and there were several large baskets in the corner full of eggs and duck eggs.Guan Xin nodded, "Let's do this first, prepare two large water tanks for me, fifty catties of salt, tell me when you are ready, I am useful, oh yes, and then go buy some tea leaves, ordinary ones are fine. You can also buy fifty catties of raw tea that has not been roasted. The money will be withdrawn from the account, just make a record."

"Other things are easy to talk about. I'm afraid the fifty catties of salt is... more difficult. I don't know what the girl wants the salt for. The villain needs to have an excuse."

"Salt, of course I eat it, but I use it differently, and you will know when the time comes. If the fifth princess mainly asks, you can say that it is used to make these eggs."

No longer caring about the bewildered Shopkeeper Wang, she went to the private room that was reserved not open to the public, which was the quietest corner of the whole restaurant, took out the drawing she hadn't finished, and continued to draw.There are two pieces in the painting. A rectangular tank with grooves has been drawn, and the remaining one is a circular pot-like thing, with grooves around it, and a chimney-like dome in the middle.If it is placed in modern times, anyone will know what these two items are at a glance, but in ancient times they were rare items.Barbecue stove, special pot for charcoal hot pot.After passing through for a few months, Guan Xin always felt that something was missing, her taste was not right in her mouth, watching the stars at night, and counting her fingers, it turned out that she was missing a string of characters and five elements.If it is in the evening of sunset, with a small wind blowing, drinking some wine, and eating some small skewers, there will be no one else, and it will be beautiful.It was almost noon after she added and drew some auxiliary props that could be used, such as the mesh sieve and grilled fish tongs.

He folded the drawing and put it in his bosom, just locked the door of the private room, when he turned around, he saw a group of Koreans and locals, led by Tang Shanshi, enter the private room.Guan Xin thought to herself, the road to Yuanjia is really narrow, the more I don't want to see each other, the more I can see each other.Turning his head, pretending not to see, not wanting to talk to him.

Happily. . . "Miss Guan, please stay."

Guan Xin curled her lips, "Damn, I really want to give you some medicine to poison you to death, but you still want to hit my old lady's muzzle."No matter how unhappy you are in your heart, you still have to smile on your face, "My son-in-law is here, the shop is full of splendor."

"Miss, you are welcome. I am here today to accompany the adults of Honglu Temple to entertain the visiting envoys of Goguryeo. The palace banquet is at night, so I will take them to taste my Tang delicacies for lunch."

"Thanks to the favor of the son-in-law, the small shop will try its best to show the food culture of my country to the foreign envoys. Please wait a moment, my son-in-law. I will go to the kitchen and see what I can do to entertain you adults."

"Miss, if you can taste the dishes cooked by the girl herself today, it will not be in vain for Tang to recommend it. It is really a blessing."

If you want her to cook by herself, go ahead and dream.If she cooks the dishes herself, she will add more ingredients to the dishes so that he can't be eaten to death. "Second brother, serve tea to you adults." After ordering from the waiter at the side, Guan Xin turned and walked towards the stairs. The moment he turned around, the smile on his face disappeared completely. He really didn't want to entertain him, but he couldn't.

She went to the kitchen and looked around. Today's signature dish is braised pork, with a daily limit of [-] servings.Speaking of this braised pork, there was a bit of twists and turns at first. The nobles of the Tang Dynasty did not eat pork. To put it bluntly, they disliked it and said that pork was dirty meat because the living environment and habits of pigs were not good.Only ordinary people can't afford mutton, so they eat pork, but their cooking methods are wrong, and the meat they make has a peculiar smell, so even the common people don't like pork very much.In order to convince everyone, Guan Xin had no choice but to cook several dishes with pork himself. The cooks were so eager to swallow their tongues that they were willing to use pork for cooking.

There were about ten people in their group. Guan Xin walked around and ordered [-] dishes including braised pork plus a soup. After half an hour, the dishes were almost complete. Guan Xin went to the counter again. He took a jug of wine, and then led the people upstairs.Even if he didn't want to entertain Tang Shanshi any more, the two people inside wearing the costumes of the dynasty should be the officials of Honglu Temple. Honglu Temple is equivalent to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which is mainly responsible for all external affairs.Datang, as the most powerful country in Asia, has a lot of foreign missions every year. If Honglu Temple can lock the dining place in this Juxian Building, then she will be equivalent to starting a business with the imperial court, which will help improve the popularity of the restaurant among the people. Her status will be beneficial for her to open chain stores in the future.

"I'm sorry to keep you adults waiting for so long." Guan Xin waited until the waiter's second brother had served all the dishes, and then filled the wine for everyone sitting. "It's really an honor for our shop to come and patronize you, adults. Bojiu and vegetarian dishes are for you to taste. If the hospitality is not good, I hope you will forgive me."

"Miss Guan, you're welcome. Who in Chang'an now knows that this Juxian Building has excellent dishes. All the dishes are developed by the girl alone. It is my blessing to eat such delicious food, and I must thank the girl." Officials are all monkey spirits, especially the servants of Honglu Temple, they must be the king of monkeys.The opening of Juxian Building has caused a lot of noise in the city.Those who are interested can guess the joints after a little inquiring.On the surface of Juxian Building, it is Guan Xin who decides. No one is a fool. This person lives in the Yuzhang Princess Mansion. If he says she is not a princess, who will believe it?The shopkeeper Wang is also the steward of Princess Changle's Zhuangzi. Judging from these two points, the actual owners behind the restaurant are those two princesses.He didn't look at the monk's face but at the Buddha's face, so the master of Honglu Temple spoke politely to Guan Xin.

"My lord praises me, so I won't disturb your lords' meal. Guan Xin will leave." When the door was closed, Guan Xin glanced around casually, and there was a face that looked a little familiar.Oh, this person came to the restaurant on the opening day, and she was still listening to them, wanting to verify whether her Korean is still useful now.Guan Xin didn't care either. Seeing that shopkeeper Wang was too busy downstairs, she took the initiative to go into the counter to help deliver the wine and settle the accounts.

After finally finishing the meal, Guan Xin just wanted to take a breath when he saw Tang Shanshi and the others coming down from the second floor, and had no choice but to come out from behind the counter and greet him with a smile. "My lords are quite satisfied."

"I have never eaten such delicious food. Thank you for your hospitality." A Goguryeo man spoke with a blunt accent, saying words of thanks.

Tang Shanshi was afraid that Guan Xin would offend the envoy, so he immediately introduced: "This is the visiting envoy from Goguryeo, Mr. Pu."

"Thank you, Mr. Park, for your compliment."

"Some of my subordinates praised this restaurant before, but Mr. Park still didn't believe it. After tasting it today, I realized that what my subordinate said was true. The girl has such cooking skills, she is amazing, amazing."

A person came forward from the rear, the same person Guan Xin had met on the opening day. "Cui Zhengdao, I was lucky enough to come here on the opening day of the restaurant. I tasted the dishes developed by the girl. I can't forget them for a long time. I tasted them again today. The fragrance is still lingering on my lips and teeth, and the aftertaste is endless."

"Mr. Cui is an honor, and I hope all the adults will join us in the future." I don't know if the Mr. Jin I heard last time is in this mission. "My lords, go slowly, welcome to visit next time."

The group from Honglu Temple were sent away, and the rest of the tables were filled with individual customers in twos and threes. It was almost the end. Guan Xin saw that there was nothing else to do, so he went to the kitchen to get something to eat, and after eating, he called the shopkeeper Wang To say hello, go to Princess Changle's mansion, one is to send the pattern, and the other is to urge the teahouse again.

Chang Le was playing chess with Chang Sun Chong, and when he heard that Guan Xin was visiting, Chang Le thought about it and guessed that it was probably about the teahouse.He ordered people to be brought in, and said to Changsun Chong, "The son-in-law usually walks around outside, so what is the purpose of Goguryeo's visit this time?"

"When did Princess Cousin care about this? That Guan Xin was the Guan Xin you and Liu Niang brought back from Luoyang this time?" Although he also went to Luoyang, he came back first when something happened here. I haven't seen Guan Xin yet.

"Don't worry about why I want to know, I naturally have my reasons, you just need to tell the truth, otherwise I will go back to the palace and ask my father."

"Hey, I said it's not enough. Don't go back and sue again. At that time, my father will reprimand me again. I heard that Dongying has captured several ports in Goguryeo. Most of the missions are here to borrow troops." The eldest grandson Chong is dumb and eats Coptis chinensis. This princess married her. She is not married to a daughter-in-law. She obviously married an ancestor. Not to mention her official career is gone, she has to be coaxed. If it's unreasonable, it's just a little temper tantrum at most, just coax it.

Seeing Guan Xin being brought over from a distance, Chang Le said to Chang Sun Chong in a low voice: "I can pretend that I don't know about you, but you can't touch this person, I'm very useful, otherwise don't blame me for not reminding me." You." Although Chang Sun Chong was a little flirtatious, he still treated her very well, perhaps because of the influence of his mother, she was not unacceptable to that flirtatiousness, so she chose to let it go, not too much.

"Look at what you said, of course I dare not touch your people."

While talking, Guan Xin had already approached, and saw a man sitting very close to Chang Le, who probably was Chang Sun Chong. It is said that Li Shimin loved Chang Le, his first daughter with Empress Chang Sun very much, so he betrothed her to her. To the eldest son of Empress Changsun's own brother, Changsun Wuji, because he was afraid that Changle would be wronged when he married.This eldest Sun Chong is really good-looking, with red lips and white teeth, and a personable demeanor, sitting there, he has an air of nobility. "See Her Royal Highness, Prince Consort"

"Not in Liu Niang's Mansion, not in a restaurant, what are you doing here?"

Seeing that Chang Le spoke in a different tone than before, probably because of the people next to him, Guan Xin replied politely: "Come to send some patterns to the craftsmen in the mansion, and come by the way to see if the princess has any instructions, and I have something to share with you." Discuss with the princess."

"Another new trick?" Chang Le put the tea bowl, she is also drinking clear tea now, since she drank it at Liu Niang's once, she likes the taste.

"Let me play tricks, and wait for the things to be made before I can show them to the princess." Guan Xin glanced at Chang Sun Chong, seeing that he was motionless like an old monk, and Chang Le didn't intend to drive anyone away. It seems that this The couple are in a good relationship, so she just said it straight: "There is one more thing. Today, the sixth son-in-law took the two adults from Honglu Temple and a group of Goguryeo diplomatic missions to the building for dinner. It seems that the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves. I Thinking, if the princess can make a little mention at Honglu Temple, then the momentum of Juxian Building will be raised to a higher level, laying a solid foundation for opening a second or even more in the future."

"Your ambition is quite big. As soon as you start one, you can think about the next one. But what's the difficulty? The son-in-law often communicates with them. Just a little bit to mention. Speaking of the Goguryeo mission, I heard that the mission was formally established. Before arriving, I sneaked people to Chang'an to make arrangements first, and I don't know whether they are sincerely visiting or pretending to surrender, this time it is the sixth concubine who is responsible for the reception and safety, speaking of it, you are a brother-in-law, you need to help out." Chang Le's words were obviously meant for Chang Sun Chong, but his eyes never left Guan Xin.Her doubts about Guan Xin were still the same as before.

"That's natural, they are all my family members. They are in an emergency situation, and they won't stay for too long." Chang Sun Chong didn't know what Chang Le meant, so he could only answer along.

Guan Xin felt that Chang Le was a big sister who had nothing to say, and felt sorry for her sister, and even helped her brother-in-law by the way, she was really a good sister.Thinking of the Mr. Jin in that population, he asked out of nowhere: "Does your son-in-law know that there is a Mr. Jin in the mission this time?"

Chang Sun Chong thought for a while, as if recalling and confirming, he shook his head, "I haven't heard of it. I don't know why the girl asked this question."

Guan Xin smiled, "It's nothing, just ask me." I was vaguely not sure about it, because it wasn't often on TV that some fake missions carried out assassinations or colluded with the enemy and betrayed the country.Recalling the histories she read, it seems that there is no mention of this, but she can’t guarantee that she missed it. After all, she just watched it on the fly. It would be fine if it was someone else. But this time it was about Yuzhang, she had to think carefully, "In case, I mean in case, there is a problem with the security of the mission this time, will the sixth son-in-law be punished? Will His Highness Six be implicated as well?"

Chang Sun Chong frowned and said nothing, Chang Le's smile disappeared, and he looked at Guan Xin indifferently, "Why do you care so much about this, or do you know something?"
