Above the main hall, everyone held their breath and looked at Ji Chengxue sitting on the dragon chair, wanting to know how he would answer Lian Fu's question. If Lian Fu was really allowed to capture Ji Chengyu, that would be It means real brotherhood.
Ji Chengxue pondered for a long time. He was hesitating and thinking. He didn't know whether he should make this decision. After all, they were brothers. Making such a decision would be a kind of torture for him.
But if Ji Chengyu stays outside, it will be a disaster sooner or later. If he grows up and has enough strength, Ji Chengyu will never do nothing, and he will never let Ji Chengxue be the emperor in peace.
"Yes."
After a long time, Ji Chengxue uttered two words, then closed his eyes and did not speak, and everyone was silent.
When the meeting in the Daxiong Hall ended, all the high-level officials of the empire left the palace, Ji Chengxue called Xiao Meng to stop, Xiao Meng was a little confused.
Ji Chengxue moved his body, paced up and down the hall, his eyes flickered with darkness from time to time.
…
The spring rain continued, and it began to fall again, the sky became a little dark, and the light was not very good.
Outside the imperial capital, Ji Chengxue was wearing casual clothes, and beside him was Xiao Meng, who was also in casual clothes. The two of them watched the back of Lian Fu leaving, and heaved a long sigh.
In the royal family, it was very common for siblings to fight each other, but now that Ji Chengxue had taken the position of emperor, the sibling fights still couldn't stop.
Ji Chengxue turned around with her arms behind her back, and walked on the long street of the imperial capital. There was a constant flow of people on the street. Everyone was busy. The Spring Festival had already ended, and the people of the imperial capital, who had no time to rest, began to work at sunrise. , the day when the sun sets and rests.
Not everyone recognizes Ji Chengxue, even if he is the emperor of the empire, he is like an inconspicuous pedestrian, walking in the streets, passing by people who are rushing to survive.
Xiaoyao Wangfu is located in a remote corner of the imperial capital.
Ji Chengxue came here and stopped for a long time. Xiao Meng, who was standing behind him, also followed Ji Chengxue's gaze, glanced at Xiaoyao Palace, and sighed in his heart.
"General Xiao, let's go in and take a look." Ji Chengxue said, and walked towards the palace with his hands behind his back.
A token made the guard who was about to intercept them retreat in awe, and the two stepped into it so gracefully.
In the palace, the construction is quite exquisite. In the courtyard, the birds are surrounded by swallows, and the sound of women playing and laughing resounds endlessly. A burly figure is playing and having fun around these women.
"My lord, there is someone." Suddenly a thin beauty looked suspiciously at Ji Chengxue and Xiao Meng who were standing in the distance, and said to Ji Chengan who was still playing.
Ji Chengan was taken aback, turned his head to look, and saw Ji Chengxue standing upright like a long sword, squinted his eyes, and smiled with great interest.
"Leave them alone, let's play with us." Ji Chengan smiled lightly, turned around and hugged a plump beauty, and laughed loudly, the sound of laughter lingered throughout the Xiaoyao Palace.
Don't you want me to be free? Then I will let you see the palace freely.
Xiao Meng sighed lightly, Ji Chengxue's eyes were dark and expressionless.
"Let's go." Ji Chengxue glanced lightly at Ji Chengan who continued to move between Yingyan, turned around and left.
It's not bad for the high-spirited prince in the past to be a happy king with peace of mind, at least... he won't face the cruelty of brother-in-law.
…
The next day, the snake-man Yufu woke up very early. Her father and Ani had already left the imperial capital and returned to the snake-man tribe. Now she is the only one left in the imperial capital, but she is not afraid at all. , but very excited.
Because she will be able to learn cooking skills from Boss Bu soon.
After grooming carefully in front of the mirror many times, Yufu tried her best to present herself in the most beautiful posture. She was originally a lovely woman in the snake-man tribe, and her meticulous dressing was even more beautiful.
She didn't apply too much rouge gouache because she knew that Boss Bu was very disgusted with rouge gouache and felt that it would affect the feeling of fragrance when cooking.
Walking out of the inn, he opened the oil-paper umbrella, his green-scaled snake tail was swaying, and he walked slowly towards the alleys of the imperial capital.
The imperial capital is much more prosperous than the snake tribe, and much more hurried than the snake tribe. Humans here come and go in a hurry, and there is no friendly greeting from the neighbors in the snake tribe, which makes people feel a little strange.
Holding an oil-paper umbrella, he wandered alone in the prosperous streets of the imperial capital.
The spring rain is swaying, occasionally rushing into people's necks, bringing a touch of coolness and refreshing.
Going straight along the alley, Yufu came to the door of the small shop. The big black dog in front of the door was still chattering away at the drunk pork ribs in the porcelain bowl. With a knowing smile, Yufu walked into the small shop wagging its snake tail. shop.
When Ouyang Xiaoyi, who was recording the dishes ordered by the diners, saw her, she immediately groaned and turned her head.
Bu Fang had just walked out of the kitchen, his hands were still stained with water, after wiping them off, he nodded to Yufu.
"Wait a minute, when today's business hours are over, I'm teaching you. During this period, you can help Xiaoyi record the dishes ordered by the diners." Bu Fang said.
Yufu nodded obediently, and moved to Ouyang Xiaoyi's side with her snake tail swaying.
Ouyang Xiaoyi turned her head in displeasure, she was jealous, because the stinky boss chose Yufu, but he didn't choose her.
Yufu didn't care either, she had come to the shop quite often, and she was quite familiar with Ouyang Xiaoyi, knowing this girl's temper, she would definitely have a cheerful expression later.
Bu Fang took a look at them, and immediately twitched the corner of his mouth, and returned to the kitchen.
"Boss Bu, one serving of braised pork, drunk pork ribs, and fish head tofu soup." Yufu's gentle, soothing voice came to Bu Fang's ears.
Bu Fang was taken aback, a little unaccustomed to it, Ouyang Xiaoyi's carefree girl usually yelled at her, but this time, the style is still a little different.
But it was harmless, just dazed for a while, and Bu Bian restarted the cooking of the dishes.
The aroma wafts out of the small shop, making the atmosphere in the small shop more intense.
As the sun set, the busy shop finally closed its business. Bu Fang pulled a chair and sat at the door. He rested for a while, watched the setting sun, and breathed a sigh of relief.
In the store, Yufu and Xiaoyi got together, leaning their heads against each other, laughing from time to time, Ouyang Xiaoyi's big eyes narrowed into a crescent shape, smiling very happily.
After the two girls rested for a while, Ouyang Xiaoyi waved goodbye to Bu Fang and Yu Fu, left the shop, and bounced back to Ouyang Mansion.
Only Bu Fang and Yu Fu, who had become stiff and restrained, were left in the shop.
"Don't be nervous, relax, mentality has a great influence on cooking skills." Bu Fang glanced at the stiff Yufu, and said lightly.
Yufu froze immediately, bowed to Bu Fang, and replied earnestly.
Bu Fang twitched the corner of his mouth, this girl.
"What I'm teaching you today is the egg fried rice you practiced yesterday, but the egg fried rice here is different from what you learned yesterday. I hope you can understand it sooner." Bu Fang stood up, relaxed his body, and said.
Yufu froze again, bowed to Bu Fang again, and answered earnestly.
"Relax, I won't eat you again." Bu Fang was a little speechless, said lightly, and then closed the door of the shop.
Bu Fang walked to the door of the kitchen, paused for a moment, hooked his fingers to Yu Fu who was still standing in the distance, and said, "Come with me, let's go into the kitchen."
"This is the first time I've let outsiders into my kitchen."
