At that time, there were Shangshan Supervisor, Guanglu Temple, and Shangshi Bureau who were in charge of the palace food. The three of them performed their respective duties without interfering with each other.
Generally, the three-meal menu was drawn up by Guanglu Temple and handed over to the emperor for review. Then it was handed over to the Shangshan Supervisor for cooking, and finally the Shangshi Bureau served the meals.
The Shanshan Supervisor is located on the edge of the Forbidden City, just a few steps away from the palace.
Ye Yuan was sitting on the main seat at this time, looking at the two empty seats below and the few eunuchs standing there consciously. There was no emotion or anger on his face, and he asked expressionlessly.
"Admiral, where are the Prime Minister and the others?"
Everyone below looked at each other in disbelief, and finally said in unison.
"We don't know about the palm seal of Qi."
Ye Yuan was a little helpless. The two eunuchs who had the greatest power did not come. The rest were just small figures and there was no need to pursue the case.
Besides, even if Ye Yuan is angry in his heart, he can't take it out on someone who is right.
Thinking of this, he said calmly.
"If that's the case, then you go and inform them both that I have the Holy Will. If they don't show up within an hour, I will charge them with the crime of disrespect by neglecting the Holy Will."
After saying that, Ye Yuan closed his eyes and waved.
"Let's all go and come back in an hour."
"yes."
Everyone did not dare to entangle and respectfully retreated. At this moment, no matter what they thought in their hearts, they did not dare to make any mistakes on the surface.
After all, this young man's pawprint looks like he's not easy to mess with.
As soon as Ye Yuan was out of sight, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and started talking.
"What do you think the admiral and the prime minister think?"
"Aren't you going to give the airborne palm a slap in the face!"
"But, isn't it a good idea to do this?"
"They were also angry. They had already decided that the palm print would be chosen between the two of them, but Concubine Wan Guifei stepped in and forced a young boy in."
"Be careful and don't make irresponsible remarks about noble people!"
"Yes, management."
"Tell me, if the two adults really don't come, will you dare to do the palm print?"
"Well, he shouldn't dare. After all, he has just arrived. How dare he touch two old people at once..."
"I don't think so. This young man is able to control himself and keep his emotions in check. I don't think he is a good person."
…
Everyone gradually drifted away until Ye Yuan could no longer hear their discussions.
He looked at Zhangyin's office boredly. It was a small room of a few dozen square meters, with ordinary decorations, a pretentious bookshelf, and nothing else.
Ye Yuan quickly lost interest in this.
He used to think that Shangshan Supervisor was very prosperous, but after he truly understood the responsibilities of Shangshan Supervisor, he discovered that the real prosperous ones were Guanglu Temple, who was responsible for purchasing ingredients and formulating menus, and Shanglinyuan, who was responsible for supplying ingredients.
As for the Shangshan Supervisor, he was only responsible for cooking and had no access to money to buy food or receive food money from the emperor.
In short, apart from rewards from nobles in the palace and certain transactions, they can only think of ways to deal with the "leftover" ingredients.
It's hard-earned money.
Ye Yuan murmured thoughtfully.
"It seems that this Shangshan Prison is not a place to stay for a long time. However, after all, it is also one of the twelve prisons, so there is no harm in catching it."
An hour passed quickly, especially for Ye Yuan who was addicted to cultivation.
"I've seen Yu Palm Seal, Yu Palm Seal... I'm really sorry. Alas, our family is really old and our eyes are dim. We actually misremembered the day you took office. It's really rude to go to Guanglu Temple to hand over the work early in the morning.
ah."
The old eunuch had a wrinkled face and an apologetic smile. He kept his posture very low and his attitude was extremely sincere.
It makes people feel guilty when they see it, thinking that they have misunderstood him.
Ye Yuan would not fall for this trick, but he still had a look of concern on his face and asked with a hint of curiosity.
"Oh, that's it! By the way, how old is Admiral Dong this year?"
"Alas, our family has reached the age of knowing its fate."
Ye Yuan held his chin, thinking that he was fifty years old and had six or seven years to reach the average life expectancy, so he should give him a ride in advance.
Ye Yuan's mind was spinning, but on the surface he looked like a simple young man, speaking outright.
"Oh, Admiral Dong is already fifty years old. He has reached the age where he can take care of his grandchildren."
There is a big question mark in everyone's mind: Does the eunuch have a grandson?
Everyone quickly realized that this new young palm print was too damaging.
Everyone couldn't help but try to suppress their laughter, but the expressions on their faces were still a little distorted, and the looks they looked at the old eunuch became weird.
The old eunuch also understood, and his face turned pale. Coupled with the strange looks from everyone, he could no longer maintain his normalcy and almost couldn't help but curse.
However, thinking about today's occasion, he still held back.
"Oh, I don't have enough firepower to attack people. I wish I had a mouth like Mr. Kong Ming's!"
Ye Yuan was very disappointed, but he soon cheered up.
He decided to add fuel to the fire, so he pretended to be regretful.
"Alas, this is all my mistake. Let's do this. I will go back to the palace and report to Emperor Ming that Admiral Dong has worked hard for Shangshan Supervisor all his life. Now that he is old and exhausted, he looks like a fifty-year-old.
He is an old man who is about to die at the age of seventy. It is time for him to go home and raise him in honor."
What he said is both high-sounding and disrespectful.
No, the chubby old eunuch's face was livid, no longer as red as it was at the beginning.
This young airborne palm laughed at him and wanted to drive him out of the palace. This was too vindictive.
You know, the eunuchs who leave the palace usually end badly. They are powerless and anyone can take a bite of them.
Therefore, most of them will die miserably.
This is also the reason why eunuchs like to adopt adopted sons, isn’t it just to ensure that they can enjoy their old age in peace!
The old eunuch was angry in his heart, but he could not act out, so he could only grit his teeth and say.
"Thank you for your understanding, Palm Seal. However, if you are loyal to the Emperor, I will do my best and die."
I can tolerate this!
Ye Yuan looked at this old eunuch with admiration. He was indeed a man who had spent his whole life in the palace.
Just stay calm!
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Since the verbal attack was ineffective, Ye Yuan stopped stimulating him, turned his eyes to the middle-aged eunuch on the other side, and asked in a deep voice.
"Song Ju...Prime Minister Song, what about you? What's your reason?"
Song Ju... Prime Minister Shang Shanjian, the third person in charge of Shang Shanjian, looks like an ordinary middle-aged man.
However, he has a capable look on his body, and he should be someone who works hard.
Ye Yuan discovered this and his attitude became a little better.
He is still very generous. As long as you are not sincerely against him, you are not an enemy.
Song Ju didn't have the old eunuch's connections, so naturally he didn't dare to be like the old eunuch. He answered very respectfully.
"According to the palm seal, our family has been called by the Shangshi Bureau to handle the upcoming banquet. We dare not not go."
banquet?
At this moment, Ye Yuan suddenly remembered that there would be a banquet in a month, the birthday of the Queen Mother.
This kind of thing cannot be taken carelessly. It is essential and more important to practice it one month in advance and discuss the banquet process and other matters.
In short, this reason is very reasonable.
Ye Yuan stopped pursuing it and said.
"In that case, let's forget about it today."
After exposing the matter in an understatement, he began to lead everyone on a tour of the entire Shangshan Supervisory Office.
People cheering in front and crowding behind, it was full of pomp and circumstance.
Although he doesn't like this method, it is essential.
In fact, if he wanted to inspect the Yamen, he could just find someone to lead the way.
But that won't work. He must bring all the managers with him, just to establish his authority, and to let everyone in the yamen know his palm print and...obey.
Although it is formalistic, the effect is really good.
The contempt in everyone's eyes disappeared.
After the inspection was completed, everyone took their seats in turn.
"Song Ju, we young people must know how to respect the old and love the young."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was confused and didn't know what to say.
Song Ju didn't understand even more. He stood up and bowed and asked.
"Please also make it clear with your palm print."
Ye Yuan glanced at the old eunuch who was slightly out of breath on his left head, and said with a smile.
"Admiral Dong is old, how can you be so ignorant and still make him so tired..."
The old eunuch couldn't hold himself any longer and felt extremely aggrieved. He stood up and wanted to defend himself, but Ye Yuan waved his hand, not giving him a chance to speak.
"...You have to remember that Admiral Dong does his best to be loyal to the emperor. He is a very loyal minister, but we must also sympathize with him. Therefore, in the future, everyone must share more pressure with him so that he can have more
Time to rest.”
Then, Ye Yuan completely ignored the old eunuch's ugly face and gave away the power of the admiral in a few words.
Ye Yuan knew that this would not have much effect, but...it would relieve his anger.
No, the old eunuch was at a loss for words at this moment. Faced with the strange looks from all his subordinates, he almost couldn't hold his breath.
At the same time, the old eunuch also hated Ye Yuan deeply and thought to himself: Isn't it just that I didn't welcome him at the first time? As for such repeated targeting.
The old eunuch's eyes gradually became fierce.
"No, the more I think about it, the angrier I get. Boy, just wait for us. Older people are still hotter. We have a long time ahead."
"Murderous!"
Ye Yuan's ears and eyes were sharp and he immediately sensed it.
He turned around to look, and the old eunuch smiled stiffly, and immediately lowered his head with a guilty conscience, but the murderous intention in his heart was even worse.
Ye Yuan also responded with a smile, and said to himself: "It seems that I can't stay."
The two of them were smiling on the outside, but in their hearts they were thinking about killing each other.
