Ye Jiangyu was a little tired of eating braised pork all the time. He thought, pork belly can be braised in soy sauce, can other ingredients be cooked in the same way?

He hadn't eaten anything good before, and the neighbor's grandma told him to come over if he made something delicious, but he only ate braised pork in braised sauce, and he hadn't tried other dishes such as braised pork ribs and braised fish.

In the next few days, Li Jinchen didn't see Ye Jiangyu. When he asked Ye Jiangyu, he said that he went to the small kitchen and didn't know what he was busy with, but people passing by could smell the fragrance from the small kitchen. .

Li Jinchen gave him full freedom and didn't ask too many questions.

Within a few days, Ye Jiangyu gave Li Jinchen a surprise. He cooked a large table of braised dishes for Li Jinchen.

Ye Jiangyu introduced to Li Jinchen one by one, "This is braised pork ribs, braised fish, braised shrimp, braised scallops, braised lion head..."

"Lion's head?" Li Jinchen took a special look at the dish when he heard this, "Is this the meat of a lion? Did you have someone catch it from the beast garden in the palace?"

There is a garden of beasts in the palace, which raises rare and exotic animals from all over the country and tribute from foreign countries. They are all for people to watch and watch. They don't know how to eat them, but if they want to eat them, they can't eat them.

"Your Majesty, you think too much. How precious this lion is. I heard that there are only two of them in our palace. If I eat one of them, the other one will be pitiful. They will become single dogs."

Li Jinchen: "..."

"If you want to ask why it is called Lion's Head, I can't tell. Anyway, that's how I dream." After Ye Jiangyu was mentioned several times by the emperor, not only did he not restrain himself, but he didn't even want to pretend in front of the emperor. , If you ask anything, just say that you dreamed in your dream, and the emperor will not ask too many questions, which is very convenient.

Li Jinchen tasted every dish. Although the recipes are similar, the tastes are different because of the different ingredients.

"Can you add a new menu? Hot pot is a bit too monotonous. It's okay to eat hot pot once in a while, but you will get tired of eating it every day." Ye Jiangyu said and took a box, "I even asked someone to make it. Checkers, poker, we can also mass-produce and sell them, they must be crazy."

Ye Jiangyu smiled and approached the emperor, "Your Majesty, do you think we can become the richest man~"

Li Jinchen pinched his face, "For the time being, we still have to restrain our edge."

"Making a fortune in silence?" Ye Jiangyu asked him.

"En." Li Jinchen took the box in his hand, and took out the checkers from inside, "This chess looks much simpler than the last flying chess."

"It's not that simple." Ye Jiangyu remembered that he had played checkers soaringly when he was in kindergarten, as if it was really simple, "I'm super good at this game, Your Majesty, why don't we play a game after dinner? "

Li Jinchen saw the shining little pride on his face again, and every time he saw Ye Jiangyu showing such an expression, his mood would also become better.

As a result, within two games of chess, Ye Jiangyu was called away by the queen mother, and he was called away alone.

Li Jinchen wanted to follow, but was stopped.

Ye Jiangyu was so frightened on the way there that his legs kept shaking, he didn't know what he did wrong, the queen mother will not punish him, he went this time, can he come back?

He went tremblingly, with the determination to die, but the queen mother only asked him to manage the harem well, such as asking him to go back to study the books, to control the monthly expenses, and not to exceed this, and to give him a map of the palace. , Let him arrange which concubine lives in which palace.

Anyway, it's a bunch of trivial things, the biggest thing is to manage money, but the money needs to support so many people, and they are all the emperor's concubines. He feels that the queen mother is embarrassing him, and he suspects that the queen mother means that there is not enough money for him to do this. The Queen came to make up for it.

Although he didn't say anything on the surface, he was very unhappy in his heart. He would not subsidize the other concubines of the emperor. If he wanted to subsidize, the emperor would have to pay, but the emperor could pay but not others. No matter what, the emperor's This man had to be in his hands.

After Li Jinchen stared for an hour, he saw Ye Jiangyu came back, but judging from Ye Jiangyu's expression, he found that Ye Jiangyu was not very happy, and he kept clenching his fists tightly, as if his hands were clenched. Like something important.

Li Jinchen watched him come back and asked him, "What's in your hand?"

Ye Jiangyu: "Your Majesty."

Li Jinchen: "?"

Ye Jiangyu snapped back to his senses, and quickly shook his head, "Your Majesty, I don't have anything in my hand. I'm just nervous. I was sweating when I talked to the Queen Mother just now. It scared me to death."

Li Jinchen took his hand and saw that his palm was sweating, "What did the Queen Mother tell you?"

Seeing the emperor wiping his hands with a handkerchief, Ye Jiangyu finally felt relieved, "The empress dowager asked me to manage the harem, just like what you said last time, taking care of their food and drink, and arranging dormitories for them." , I have to pay them wages, if the Queen Mother doesn’t give me enough money, I have to subsidize it myself, why, I still have to subsidize the money for the emperor’s wives, I’m not losing money, I can do it if I marry the emperor Charity? It’s not that I don’t want to give the money, but I’m afraid that relics will grow in my intestines after I die.”

Li Jinchen rarely saw Ye Jiangyu say so much in one breath, unless it was something related to money, Ye Jiangyu would say so much in one breath.

"You can spend as much as the queen mother gives you. There is no need to wrong you for others, and they are not my concubine. They were recruited by the queen mother, and they belong to the queen mother. Only you are my queen." Li Jinchen explain.

Ye Jiangyu: "Are you going to choose a concubine in a few days?"

Li Jinchen: "I said, those people have nothing to do with me, so you don't need to try again."

Ye Jiangyu hesitated, "But the queen mother said that I have to help choose a concubine."
