The reborn delicate empress just wants to hug her thighs

Chapter 42 Meatloaf Shop Owner
"You thieves, where are you taking Xiaosheng? Xiaosheng came to Beijing to catch up with the exam, not to be an interviewer!"

A scholar in Tsing Yi struggled to resist, but he didn't do labor and didn't know martial arts. How could he be an opponent of a palace guard in disguise?
The guards forced all the noodles into the deserted time mansion, and locked everyone into a room.

There are 48 people in total, and some rooms are still vacant, which shows the glory of Shifu before its decline.

Fu An listened to the loud cursing coming from the nearest room, nodded in satisfaction, and said: "..."

His words were overshadowed by cursing.

Fu An had no choice but to yell into the guard's ear: "Knock on the door with a weapon, and calm down these poor scholars!"

The guard then took two shovels casually, and slammed on the door, making a loud sound of gold and iron clanging, and there was no movement inside the door.

Seeing this, Fu An laughed out loud, knowing that these literati are all of the same virtue!On the surface, he is the most upright, but in fact he is very afraid of death, just like a court official!
Those people scolded Chitose and eunuchs the most harshly behind their backs, but they couldn't hold back a word in front of them, they just stared at each other.

If someone offends Chitose and goes to prison, the civil servants are usually the first to speak. Some people have not yet been sentenced, but just seeing a red-hot iron tongs can't stand it.

If it weren't for the lack of numbers, Fu'an would rather find a handsome man from ordinary people, but unfortunately that kind of man either became a wife's best friend, or was reduced to be a young lady, how could he hold on.

Most of this group of face leaders are the children of petty officials, and most of them are voluntary, including some scholars, and less than ten of them are poor scholars who were kidnapped by force.

Regardless of their reluctance now, when they enter the palace and see His Majesty, they may not be able to move their legs or drive them away.

Hearing this sinister laughter, Li Huaishan immediately understood the identity of the person who kidnapped him, it turned out to be a dead eunuch!
Just when I was about to curse, I suddenly remembered something, and I was shocked!
I've never heard that eunuchs like to play with scholars. Could it be that it was prepared for someone in the palace...

No, no, don't speculate on Your Majesty!
Besides, even if it is the empress, Li Huaishan will never face her face to face!

He is different from those rich children who are rich and jaded, he has real knowledge. Isn't it better to be a high-ranking official after passing the exam?
After making up his mind to escape, Li Huaishan stopped cursing loudly.

He had heard that the eunuch's methods were extremely cruel, and if he continued to scold him, he would be greeted by torture.If it were someone else, they might be concerned about his status as a scholar, but the eunuch...

Looking at this mansion, even those who have become high officials can be killed at will, and their homes can be copied at any time. Who can fight against them?
A person who knows current affairs is a hero, it is better to stay dormant for the time being.

Interrupted by the scholar's cursing, Fu'an didn't have the heart to say anything else, and hastily explained that he must treat people well, that he must send a man in when delivering meals, and left Shifu.

The four most unlucky guards took turns to watch the gate by guessing the boxing game, and the others followed Fu An back to the palace.

The four of them were so cold that they didn't even have a brazier, and they couldn't even walk around. They were shivering in less than half an hour.

Seeing that there was no one on the street, not even a bug, one of them finally couldn't stand it any longer and said, "Brothers, I'm going to buy some wine to warm everyone up, this place is really not for people."

Another person volunteered to go with him, saying: "How many things can be moved by one person, why not go with me, and I can move a small table back."

The other two agreed, so the two went to the nearby market together.

When I came to the market, I found a long queue in front of a shop selling meat and snacks, among which were quite a few well-dressed servants, who were obviously servants sent by a wealthy family to buy.

The two couldn't help wondering why this small shop had attracted so many diners in a short period of time, since they had never heard of it before. It should be newly opened.

"Get out, get out!"

Regardless of the people who were queuing up, the two squeezed forward with all their strength. Seeing the neat armor on their bodies, the others dared not speak out, for fear of getting stabbed in a hurry.

Squeezed to the very inside, the refreshing meaty aroma made the two of them salivate, so they hurriedly ordered two, and chose a table to sit down to eat.

Take a bite, the golden meringue is wrapped full of meat fillings, the juice is delicious and steaming, and the cake is eaten in a short time, and the stomach is already half full.

Remembering that I still have to buy food for my two brothers and 48 noodle shop, why don't I just order the cakes from this shop, so as not to have to go back and forth.

One of them raised his hand and called out: "The shopkeeper!"

The young boss who was busy behind the steamer hurried over, bowed and said, "My lord, do you dare to ask me what you need to call me?"

"Your cakes are pretty good, how much more?" the man asked carelessly.

"Including those that are already steaming in the steamer, those that are being wrapped, and there are exactly fifty more." The boss replied.

The man patted the table and said: "Isn't this a coincidence! It just needs fifty cakes, and I will cover them all!"

Hearing what he said, the boss looked embarrassed and said, "Here...there are still customers queuing outside..."

"Boom them away!"

"Ah... well."

The boss was apologetic, reasonable, and promised a discount next time, and the people who lined up outside reluctantly dispersed.

Going back to the back of the steamer and steaming the newly made cakes, the boss wiped his sweat and said: "You two officials, wait a moment, the cakes will be steamed soon."

The two guards had nothing to do, looked at the boss's work, and couldn't help being a little surprised after looking at it, and asked: "Shopkeeper, I don't think you are a businessman, but a scholar."

Shi Huaishan froze slightly, and said: "My lord is joking, the villain has been weak since he was a child, and can't do much work. He has only recovered in recent years, and he has come out to do things. I have read two books. , but without fame, how can you be called a scholar."

"So that's it." The guard asked casually, seeing that he had nothing to talk about, so he turned to other topics.

Shi Huaishan broke out in a cold sweat because of this question, but fortunately the steamer was already hot, so sweating on his forehead seemed normal.

Not long after, the cake was steamed, packed carefully, and tied with a rope to make it easy to carry. He walked over and said to the two guards:
"My lords, the small store has run out of ingredients today. I don't know where the two of you live. I can help deliver them."

The two guards remembered that they still needed someone to deliver food to the noodle heads, and they happened to be able to use him, so they said: "Don't inquire about where it will be sent for now, just follow me."

Shi Huaishan went out with two guards and saw that they went to other shops to buy two jugs of good wine and a piece of smoked fish, a piece of roast duck, a piece of roast chicken, and some snacks, his doubts became deeper and deeper.

Where are they going to use all these things they bought?
