good meal

Chapter 536
The large salutes were sent back to the mansion, Chu Liangrao asked Mother Du to tidy up two light clothes, and did not give any more instructions.

Seeing that Chu Liangrao didn't intend to stay for a long time, Mama Du didn't let anyone decorate the house any more.

After tidying up, Nuo Ge'er ran back bouncingly, holding a rose flower in full bloom in his hand.

"Mother, mother, here you are." Brother Nuo handed the flowers to Chu Liangrao as if presenting a treasure, smiling brightly on his chubby little face.

Chu Liangrao accepted it with a smile, put it on her temples, picked up Nuo Ge'er and kissed her.

Brother Nuo giggled and kissed Chu Liangrao.

Huo Tainan followed into the room, seeing this scene deliberately savoring: "Brother Nuo, your mother has a gift, what about father's?"

"Of course there is daddy." Nuo Ge'er took out a small black stone from his sleeve and said, "Here."

Taking the pebble and comparing it to the rose on Chu Liangrao's temple, Huo Tainan clearly felt the meaning of perfunctory.

"Don't you like it?" Nuo Ge'er asked innocently with his eyes wide open.

"I like it, of course I like it." Huo Tainan said with a smile, "This is the first time Brother Nuo gave something to Dad, Dad must find a place to store it properly."

Nuo Ge'er said: "Daddy, there are many in the backyard. If you lose them, Nuo Ge'er will find them for you."

Well, sure enough... Huo Tainan looked at Chu Liangrao helplessly, seeing her pursing her lips and laughing gloatingly, she also felt funny in her heart.

Looking at Chu Liangrao, then looking at Huo Tainan, Brother Nuo jumped off Chu Liangrao's lap: "Father, mother, kiss, Brother Nuo is going to take a lunch break."

Chu Liangrao blushed and muttered, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

"Miss, since Nuo Ge'er is so sensible, how about us..." Huo Tainan approached with a smirk on his face.

Chu Liangrao stood up, pulled Huo Tainan and said, "Don't be serious, you are tired enough this journey, go to sleep quickly, I don't know if I can have a good rest tomorrow." Then, she pressed Huo Tainan down Go to the bed and sit down.

Huo Tainan also knew that going back to Beijing would not be enjoyable, and Chu Liangrao said this for his own good, even if he took off his shoes, he lay down.

Chu Liangrao was sitting by the bed, embroidering patterns, and said, "I left two pieces of clothes here for you, if you think it's not appropriate, I can ask someone to bring them over again, how about it?"

"It's enough to wear." Huo Tainan said, "Don't bother your eyes, it's not easy for you to accompany Nuo Ge'er on the road, so take advantage of this moment to sleep."

Chu Liangrao agreed, put away the needle and thread, and lay down beside Huo Tainan: "I don't know what's going on with Zhuangzi."

"With Mother Du watching, nothing will happen, don't worry." Huo Tainan said, "Ah Rao, what do you think about Jinxiufang?"

Chu Liangrao thought for a while, and said: "If I don't come back this time, I would like to open a shop again, just make it a tailor shop, and save trouble. Now that I'm back, I have other plans."

"Huh?" Huo Tainan raised his brows, "What's the plan?"

"I plan to open a place for rich families to visit." Chu Liangrao said, "Food, clothing, games, one-stop service, and then make it a membership system, and provide different services to guests according to different membership levels."

With the previous experience of Jinxiufang, Huo Tainan also understands that the membership system she mentioned is just to connect food, clothing and games together, I'm afraid it will not be an easy task.

But seeing that Chu Liangrao was confident, Huo Tainan felt that there was nothing to worry about.

After all, Chu Liangrao is not a child, nor is she a woman from an ordinary family, so she will never have an idea on a whim.

The next day, Huo Tainan followed Huo Tainan into the palace to face the saint, while Chu Liangrao stayed in the palace to take care of the children.

The old lady liked Nuo Ge'er, but after all, she was too old and didn't have that much energy, so she just sat down and went back to her room.On the contrary, Wen Wanmo stayed to talk with Chu Liangrao, and the two of them talked about embroidery, which was very harmonious.

Looking at Wen Wanmo with gentle eyebrows, and thinking of the loneliness she endured, Chu Liangrao talked about his plan, and said: "I came up with this idea after hearing about Jinxiu Fang's membership system and shareholding system, look Do you plan to follow suit?"

Wen Wanmo was slightly taken aback, she knew that Chu Liangrao had always been on guard against her, so she was really surprised by throwing an olive branch at her at this time.

But Chu Liangrao only wanted to return the gold mountain in that space.

Lowering her eyes, Wen Wanmo did not agree directly, but asked to wait two more days for her to think about it.

Chu Liangrao felt that this matter might not be successful, so it was only natural for Wen Wanmo to be cautious.

Presumably, Wen Wanmo didn't know what happened next, that's why he was so cautious.

After talking for a while, the servants came to report that Chu Chaoyang had returned.

Chu Chaoyang came back alone, but Mu Mengchen stayed in the palace.

Chu Liangrao felt a little worried, so he stood up and went to look for Chu Chaoyang.

Wen Wanmo got up, but he didn't rush to follow.

After finding Chu Chaoyang, Chu Liangrao asked about Huo Tainan.

Knowing that she was worried, Chu Chaoyang's tone was light and easy, only saying that Huo Tainan was left to play chess by the Holy Majesty, nothing serious would happen.

But Chu Liangrao felt that it was not that simple. To play chess with the Son of Heaven, no matter whether you win or lose, you have to take risks, but Huo Tainan is very skilled at chess...

If he really wins against Mu Mengchen, he might make Longyan furious.

Thinking of this, Chu Liangrao couldn't sit still.

It's so hard to wait, but it can be said that Huo Tainan's news came, saying that he will come back later.

Chu Liangrao just sat down and drank a cup of tea. Nuo Geer grabbed the tea fruit on the table and obediently approached her: "Mother, eat the fruit."

Picking up one and putting it in his mouth, Chu Liangrao smiled and said, "Brother Nuo is so good."

"Mother, eat another one." Nuo Ge'er passed his little hand forward again.

After eating another one, Chu Liangrao said, "My mother won't eat it, brother Nuo can eat it by himself."

"Nuo Ge'er doesn't eat it either, the fruit is too sweet." Nuo Ge'er put down the tea fruit, clapped his hands, and looked serious.

This point follows Huo Tainan, Nuo Ge'er is not like ordinary children who love to eat sweets, which also relieves Chu Liangrao, you must know that children are most likely to eat too much sugar and develop tooth decay, and there are no dentists in this era. If it's really uncomfortable, it's the children who suffer.

After wiping his hands, Nuo Ge'er sat beside Chu Liangrao and waited for Huo Tainan together.

Chu Liangrao looked down at the well-behaved Nuo Ge'er, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, how discerning this child is, that he would be quiet at this time and wait with her.

Holding Nuo Ge'er in his arms and kissing, Chu Liangrao said, "Nu Ge'er is so good."

"Huh?" Nuo Ge'er looked up at Chu Liangrao puzzledly, his big eyes flickering.

Chu Liangrao didn't explain, but just hugged Nuo Ge'er, just like a year ago, taking Nuo Ge'er as his reliance.

Although Nuo Geer loves to play with Huo Tainan on weekdays, he is also close to Chu Liangrao from the bottom of his heart.

Although he wanted to accompany him, after all, Brother Nuo was still a child, running around during the day, so he was tired at this time, and fell asleep leaning on Chu Liangrao's lap.

Chu Liangrao combed his soft hair with his hands, and looked up from time to time, for fear of missing something.

While waiting, Huo Tainan walked into the room unexpectedly, and seeing Chu Liangrao sitting in front of the door hugging Nuo Ge'er, he couldn't help being stunned for a moment: "Why haven't you rested yet?"

Chu Liangrao raised his index finger and said softly, "Brother Nuo is already asleep."

"You go in first, I'll take Nuo to rest." Huo Tainan stepped forward, hugged Nuo in his arms, and kissed Chu Liangrao.

With this kiss, Chu Liangrao's worries and slight complaints disappeared.

Patting Huo Tainan's arm with her hand, she muttered reproachfully, "I'll clean you up later."

Huo Tainan grinned, showing no sign of fear.

After putting Nuo Ge'er in place, Huo Tainan returned to Chu Liangrao's side, hugged Chu Liangrao and acted like a baby: "Good Ah Rao, I made you worry."

"I'm ashamed to say it." Chu Liangrao said in a low voice, "He didn't make things difficult for you, did he?"

"After all, they are all the emperor's people, so there is no way to make things difficult for the courtiers." Huo Tainan said.

"Then did you win or lose that game of chess?" Chu Liangrao asked.

"With your husband's chess skills, what do you think?" Huo Tainan asked.

Chu Liangrao guessed, "Win?"

"No." Huo Tainan shook his head.

"That means losing." Chu Liangrao said.

"That's not right." Huo Tainan smiled inscrutablely, "That game of chess is not over yet, it's a dead end."

Chu Liangrao couldn't help laughing, this person is really, in order to avoid winning or losing, he simply made a dead end.

If it is a draw, it will give people the feeling that Huo Tainan and the Holy Master are evenly matched, but if it is a dead end, it means that the game is meaningless to continue, which means that there is no need for Huo Tainan and Mu Mengchen to compare.

Thinking of this, Chu Liangrao felt that he was worrying too much.

After all, Huo Tainan is a person who has been in the officialdom, these things are much more clear than he thought.

"Your Majesty intends to send me to work in the south of the Yangtze River, and I have already agreed." Huo Tainan said, "I'm thinking about it, Your Majesty intends to move the capital."

"Moving the capital?" Chu Liangrao looked at Huo Tainan in surprise, "This is a big deal."

"Yes, so you can't spread it, but you are my wife, so there is nothing wrong with it." Huo Tainan said.

Chu Liangrao felt sweetened, and said, "Your Majesty really intends to move the capital?"

"There is a severe drought in Kyoto every year. The national teacher has long said that it is not appropriate to stay in Kyoto." Huo Tainan said, "The late emperor was busy with alchemy and medicine, so this matter has been suppressed. Now it is just a rehash of old things."

Nowadays, the climate in Kyoto is not suitable for many people to live in. In addition, most of the high-ranking officials and dignitaries live in Kyoto. If they want to live comfortably for their families, they will support it.

Mu Mengchen has always followed the will of the people, so the matter of moving the capital must have been leaked on purpose. When the ministers complained, he could half-push and half-respond, which not only showed foresight, but also showed the harmony between the monarch and his ministers.

From this incident alone, it can be seen that Mu Mengchen's scheming is deep, and it is no wonder that he was able to hide it for so many years without revealing it, thus becoming a blockbuster and becoming the final winner.
