Yunmeng Ballad: I opened a restaurant in the Warring States Period

Chapter 17

Cheng Yin Qu Xiao has been a little happy recently.

Yunmengju is going to invite him to dinner again!This is already the third free banquet, and as far as he knows, this is a treatment that no one in Yingdu City has ever experienced.

Not even Ling Yin, the King of Chu, and the princes and princesses of Chu State.

To be repeatedly entertained by such a famous, high-end, top-notch restaurant fully shows that he is really loved by the people under his rule.

Cheng Yin stumbled into Yunmengju in a daze, and before he could stand still, a group of maids greeted him into the private room, beat his shoulders and legs, poured tea and wine, and served the food in one go, orderly.

Cheng Yin felt as if he was floating on the clouds, he was so ecstatic, he became even more dizzy.

Chu Yunmeng came out at this time, and sat down with Cheng Yin to answer the case: "Gu Yun has met Lord Cheng Yin."

"Gu Yun, I haven't seen you come out for a long time." Cheng Yin smiled with his eyes narrowed in enjoyment, "What do you mean by inviting me to a banquet today?"

"What else can I do for my family? It's naturally for business—" Chu Yunmeng deliberately dragged out his voice, acting coquettishly.

"But is there anything that needs help?" Cheng Yin naturally knew that there was no such thing as a free dinner.

"Master Cheng Yin is so enthusiastic, I don't want to hide it anymore." Chu Yunmeng chuckled, "Master Ling Yin recently brought a son to Yunmengju for dinner, and that son later became Yunmengju's owner." Regular customer..."

"Isn't this a good thing, why did you find me?" Cheng Yin was puzzled.

"Because, that young master is the young master Yuan..." Chu Yunmeng looked panic-stricken: "This is the first time I have entertained the prince and grandson, and I am afraid that I will offend the nobleman if I am not thoughtful, so I want to ask Mr. Cheng Yin to explain. confused..."

"Actually, I don't know much about the people and things in the palace. You should ask Mr. Ling Yin for help."

"To be honest, I'm still a little afraid of Lord Ling Yin. I always feel that you are not as kind as Lord Cheng Yin..." Chu Yunmeng gave a high hat in due course.

The vain Lord Cheng Yin felt that it was very useful, so he laughed and said slowly.

"This son Yuan has a thick thigh, you have to hug him well! I heard that he is one of the two sons that the king loves most. Besides the son and he, he is the most honorable in front of the king. However, before With the help of the princess dream, since the princess dream disappeared, he has been depressed, and his limelight in front of the king has been gradually overshadowed by the young master."

"What kind of person is Princess Meng? How can she affect Gongzi Yuan's status in front of the king?"

"Hush! Princess Meng is the king's favorite daughter, and now it has become a taboo in the entire Chu Palace. Especially in front of Gongzi Yuan, this has to be handled properly." Cheng Yin probed around and looked around, then with a serious face:
"Especially the stewed chicken with mushrooms in Yunmengyao. Last time, Lord Ling Yin said that it was like a princess's dream. You should pay attention to it in front of Gongzi Yuan."

A bolt of lightning flashed across Chu Yunmeng's heart, and most of the fog in front of him seemed to be dispelled.

She already knew what to do.The next key lies in Gongzi Yuan.

Cheng Yin talked about the rumors about Gongzi Yuan for a long time.

After listening to the whole passage, it is roughly clear:
Gongzi Yuan is a rising star in Chu State.The courtiers of the Chu State agreed that he was the most outstanding son of the next generation of the Chu State, and that the future Chu State was expected to rise under his hands.More importantly, he has the best relationship with Princess Meng.Although it was not born by a mother, it is closer than Princess Shu who came out of a mother's womb.

After sending Cheng Yin away, Chu Yunmeng figured out how to get close to Gongzi Yuan.

In the Chu Palace, Prince Yuan sat in a palace, looking at the original decorations, motionless.

Thinking of that bright and fresh face, thinking of the crisp laughter that echoed in this palace, tears rolled down from his eyes.

"Meng'er, where are you? Why didn't you come to look for Brother Wang?"

Sobbing for a long time, Gongzi Yuan was motionless and dozed off.

Dimly, he heard a call.

"Brother Wang, save me! Brother Wang! Brother Wang!" The mournful woman's call made Gongzi Yuan uneasy, his body gradually trembled and even twitched.

"Sister Wang!" Gongzi Yuan screamed, waking up from his sleep.

Seeing the empty palace, the horror in his eyes caused by what he saw in his sleep gradually faded away, and then turned into a gloomy look.

He clenched his fists tightly, turned around and walked out, squeezed the newly received invitation, and hurried out of the palace.

Half an hour later, Young Master Yuan walked straight into Yunmengju's private room.

Mai Mai hurriedly arranged for someone to come forward to receive him, and he himself sat down with Mr. Yuan to deal with the case.

"Thank you Yunmengju for your kind invitation, but Yu deserves it. I don't know if your shop invited me, but I have something to ask for?" Gongzi Yuan cut to the chase.

"Young Master, what did you say, you are the number one guest of Yunmengju, so naturally you should treat yourself well." Mai Xu and Wei Snake said: "You came to Yunmengju, but you made us flourish."

"Since I have nothing to ask, I have something to ask of you, sir, I wonder if I can help you with this?" Gongzi Yuan ignored Mai Mai's "Tai Chi" and continued to go straight in and out.

"I would like to know, who cooks your Yunmeng Yao, and who cooks them?"

"To tell you the truth, my master, naturally our master will take care of it."

"I wonder if I can meet with your master?" Gongzi Yuan continued to press forward step by step.

"To tell you the truth, my master, in order to make new dishes, my boss has already gone out to search for new ingredients. I haven't been back for nearly a month or two."

Mai Mai followed Chu Yunmeng's teaching and dealt with it steadily.

"Oh? Isn't Yunmengyao being taken care of by your boss? Now Yunmengyao has a banquet every now and then, but she can go away?" Young Master Yuan didn't believe it.

"The owner is only responsible for developing new dishes. Now that the chef is familiar with the cooking method, he can take some time off. Otherwise, the owner will not be the chef?" Mai Mai chuckled.

After a long silence, Gongzi Yuan finally said, "Then... can I tell you the origin of your master?"

Mai Mai shook her head: "It's not that I don't want to tell the young master, but... our boss doesn't know his origin."

"how do I say this?"

"Due to some unknown reasons, the owner lost all his memories. Fortunately, all the merchants rescued him, so he didn't die in the mouth of the beast, and opened such a small restaurant."

"My boss said that when she just woke up, she was hunted down by a group of wild beasts in the wild forest near the river near Yunmeng Mountain outside Yingdu, and she managed to escape." Maimai finished speaking in one breath, and finally relaxed all over her body.

"Beast forest? How could it be?" Gongzi Yuan's face was in disbelief. After a long time, his face turned serious, and then livid.

"I don't know why your boss would disclose such important information to me. What if I would be detrimental to Yunmengju?"

"Before inviting the young master, the host asked many things about the young master and thought about it for a long time." Mai Mai said in a low voice: "In the end, she chose to believe in the young master, thinking that you are the one who can help her find the truth."
