Zhou Ze smiled and said, "Your Majesty, who knows me well, can tell you the truth. I have something that I would like to ask Your Majesty to take care of."
Lin Chong glanced at the cloth bag he was carrying behind him and already guessed what it was: "Why do you want me to keep it for you?"
Zhou Ze carefully put the cloth bag away. The thing inside was Lu Qi, whom he won in a gambling game.
Lin Chong knew that Zhou Ze treasured this thing very much. He would yell and scream for a long time even if he moved it. Today, he wanted to put Lu Qi in his place. Could it be that his head was squeezed by the door when he went out today?
Before he could ask this question, Zhou Ze had already spoken first: "Your Majesty has always wanted to learn the piano. It just so happens that at this stage, Prince Xiang and other ministers are taking care of it for you, and you don't have to go out and wander around anymore.
Why don't you take this opportunity to improve your majesty's chess, calligraphy and painting skills?"
Lin Chong was shocked, why would such a good guy want to learn this thing? Could it be that Zhou Shilang had been too busy recently and had something wrong with his leisure?
"Weichen has a friend who is coming to the house recently. Weichen is worried that he has some bad ideas, so he can feel more at ease by leaving this precious thing with His Majesty for safekeeping. These things must be learned sooner or later, and tomorrow will come tomorrow.
"There are so many tomorrows, why not start from today."
Lin Chong sighed, it seems that naughty children really do not distinguish between dynasties. It must be the Chinese New Year, and Zhou Ze's family will also have a lot of relatives, so he put Lu Qi here. Maybe it is because he has been behaving like this lately.
He was so anxious that even Zhou Ze couldn't stand it anymore. There really wasn't anything important going on now, so it was a good time to learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.
After thinking about it, Lin Chong figured it out. "Well, let's keep Qin first. When your relatives leave, you must remember to take it back, or else I will fall in love with it one day."
He took it for himself."
"If your Majesty really likes it, maybe I will give it to you."
"Can you really give it to me?" Lin Chong's eyes flashed green. Although he didn't understand Qin, he also knew that Green Qi was very valuable. Selling it for money in the future would also be a source of income.
Zhou Ze showed a sinister smile: "Of course I can give it to you, unless I die."
Lin Chong sighed. He knew that this guy was not so kind. When he inherited his inheritance, he would have to wait until he was seventy or eighty years old. What's more, the current situation is turbulent. Countless people are eyeing his throne. Who can die first?
Correct.
It's almost the end of the year, and although Lin Chong has nothing to do now, Zhou Ze, who is in the Ministry of Etiquette, should be very busy. This year, in addition to preparing the year-end banquet and the distribution of quotas to ministers, he also has to prepare for the heaven-sacrifice ceremony.
The Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony is a very serious matter, which is especially important to the Ministry of Etiquette. Everything from the layout of the venue to the smallest tassel on the clothes must be carefully inspected.
The ancestral etiquette is important, but in actual situations, protecting the personal safety of His Majesty the Emperor is more important.
Zhou Ze hid in Lin Chong's place for two days, but was still captured by Huang Xin like a young man.
After Zhou Ze left, Lin Chong finally had time to look for Jonathan. He hadn't seen Jonathan for a long time, and he didn't know how he was doing recently. Mu Xi and Mu Xi often went to see him, sometimes at night.
Live there and help Jonathan.
Although Mu Xi had never heard of what Jonathan had done, he seemed to be naturally smart and knowledgeable. As long as Jonathan simply explained the principles to him, he could draw inferences about the shortcomings of this thing and the areas where it could be improved.
Mu Mu's hands-on ability is not ordinary, and the unique tacit understanding between him and Mu Xi means that whenever Mu Xi describes it, Mu Xi can quickly understand what he means and help Jonathan improve the equipment according to his ideas.
Jonathan was amazed by this, and he sighed to Lin Chong: "Where did you find these two living treasures?"
Lin Chong spread his hands: "Do you want to listen to the truth?"
"Of course."
"Ahem, actually, I picked them up in a garbage dump when I escaped from the palace and went out to play. At that time, one of them was very sick and was about to die, and the other was stupid. I was doing it for charity.
It was my mentality that brought them both back.”
At this moment, the two protagonists of the story showed no gratitude and ate up the Wang family's limited-edition fried chicken that Lin Chong brought specially to comfort Jonathan, the spicy lion's head from the north of the city, and the glutinous rice wine that had just been put out in the restaurant.
Because Lin Chong had been listening intently to Jonathan's words before, when he came back to his senses and saw the mess on the table, his face turned dark. But he looked around and quickly came up with an idea: "Hey, Lao Qiao, how about we make hot pot ourselves?"
Sample?"
Although Jonathan has been to China several times due to missions, his impression of hot pot is only at the stage of hearing about it. Every time because of the tight time for missions, he can only eat some portable fast food, so he has never had it.
A chance to taste this legendary delicacy.
"It's winter now, which is the best season for hot pot. It's great that you have fresh vegetables here, but you still have to go to the market to cut the meat and buy some seasonings."
Jonathan stood up: "Then I'll go now."
Lin Chong pulled him back: "Mu Mu, Manager Wang said that you have made great progress in Qinggong recently. Now I want to give you a good test. You go to Lao Zhang in the north of the city and buy a few kilograms of chopped meat. I'll give you half an hour."
enough?"
Mu Mu has never been to the north of the city from here, and he doesn't know how long it will take to get there. However, if the young master wants to check how his kung fu training is, he must perform well.
Mu Xi looked at Mu Mu's excited and eager expression and sighed. This silly boy just wants you to run errands for him to make you happy.
While waiting for the wood to come back, Lin Chong was picking and choosing a suitable pot at Jonathan's place. In the end, he replaced the iron pot with a sturdy iron basin, but Lin Chong found a small casserole here for boiling medicinal materials. This kind of pot
It’s best used to cook tendons.
Lin Chong's mind drifted away as he thought about it. Since no one had eaten it, he could open a hot pot restaurant in the capital. It would be easy and profitable.
Jonathan helped him move the special small stove. Lin Chong thought this was a small alcohol stove, but he didn't know how Jonathan made this kind of fuel. If the production method was not so complicated and the cost was not particularly high, the hot pot restaurant
It's totally doable.
Especially in winter, dignitaries and dignitaries will flock to the place, and then all I have to do is sit there and count the money. As expected, mastering core creativity is the most important thing.
Jonathan also took Lin Chong to the basement. To be honest, Lin Chong never thought that a basement could be built under such a dilapidated house, and it was quite big.
Lin Chong walked around curiously, and everything he saw was very novel. "Hey Lao Qiao, I saw the basement in the TV series was very bright, why is it so dark for you?"
Jonathan glared at Lin Chong from a place in front where he couldn't see him: "In the TV series, an oil lamp can illuminate it. Can you do that?"
Lin Chong spread his hands: "Anyway, I think it's quite bright in the palace, otherwise I'll steal a few luminous pearls for you to use."
Jonathan shook his head: "No, let's get down to business. I have carefully considered the things you mentioned to me before. Tanks and other things are really unrealistic, but there is one thing I can provide.
