Ying Lao bent down and picked up the broken knife from the ground, placed it on the desk, put it back together, and called Lu Yiming over: "This knife has been with me for ten years since I was twenty years old and guarded the border. It is my first knife."

Lu Yiming wanted to explain, but he stopped him: "To me, this is just a knife, and it is also a brother who fights alongside me. The last time it went into battle with me to kill an enemy was twenty years ago. Years ago, you blocked a sword for me, but you turned into a broken sword."

Old Ying pointed out the section where the force was applied to Lu Yiming, it was exactly the one he noticed before.

"This sword has killed people and achieved military exploits. I thought that its mission had been completed." He looked at Lu Yiming seriously and handed the broken sword wrapped in silk to him solemnly, "Now, this sword As a sword of inheritance, it is handed into your hands. I hope you can continue to pass on its unyielding will. As a Dajing person, die as a Dajing person!" The

reluctance in Mr. Ying's eyes overflowed when he looked at the sword. His eyes seemed to be saying goodbye to his old friends.

Lu Yiming took it solemnly. He understood Ying Li's mood. If Xiaomiao left one day, he would probably feel so sad.

The two sat down face to face in the study, and Ying Li sighed: "If I had known you earlier, I might not have let you directly participate in this test."

Lu Yiming naturally poured him a cup of tea and asked in confusion. : "How do you say this?"

"The capital is not at peace. If you are promoted to an official position now, you might become a victim." This

was not the first time he had heard of something happening in the capital. Before, it felt far away and had nothing to do with him. Now when he looks at the people he knows around him, this sense of distance has long been shortened as his time in Dajing Country has lengthened.

From the moment he decided to take the scientific examination, he was destined to be unable to avoid it.

"Teacher, can you tell me more, so that I can prepare early."

Ying Li looked at Lu Yiming with thoughtful eyes. He accepted the disciple based on his eyesight. Although the other person was his close disciple, he had not known Lu Yiming for a long time. , logically speaking, he should not let people participate in these partisan disputes prematurely. Many people repaid kindness with enmity after entering the court, beating up their teachers for the sake of power.

If you talk about things in the capital today, you will be telling the other party part of the secret. If this person is an undercover agent sent by other princes, the three of them will be in trouble.

For a long time, Lu Yiming suspected that the other party had noticed the flowers on his face, and then Ying Li spoke again: "The Emperor is dying."

Lu Yiming's mind changed, and there was a lot of hidden meaning in his words.

First of all, the emperor's poor health is not a secret in Dajing Kingdom, but even so, there should be no problems within five years. If the emperor's condition really worsens, there will definitely be news in the capital, but the people of Li will not know. This incident shows that there may be something strange about the emperor's illness.

Secondly, the current queen has not made any achievements and the emperor has not established a prince, which will inevitably cause a bloody storm.

The eldest prince is the eldest son. As long as there is no edict, he ascends the throne and inherits the throne, which is in line with etiquette.

However, there was a third prince above the court who had more outstanding virtues and talents, which overshadowed his shine. The third prince was more followed by officials and loved by the people, and his voice overshadowed that of the eldest prince.

As for the other princes, most of them are from the mother's side.

These things he had inquired about carefully after Xie Cheng invited him to be the instructor last time. This kind of survival law where royal power is supreme is different from the law of the end of the world where the strong is the king. Since he lives in this land, of course he must abide by the laws of this world. law.

After Lu Yiming pondered for a while, he asked: "How much time does the emperor have?"

Talking about royal matters can easily make people lose their heads if they listen to it. Ying Li looked around cautiously, raised an index finger, and replied in a low voice: "Nothing will happen. year, but the partisanship within the imperial court has already begun."

Lu Yiming lowered his eyes, refilled a cup of tea for him, and asked a sensitive topic without warning: "Does the teacher support the third prince or the sixth prince?" The atmosphere

suddenly changed . In the stalemate between them, Ying Li's gentle aura dissipated, and the cold current surged, like a sharp sword that could come out of his body at any time.

Ying Li stared at Lu Yiming for a long time, then he slowly took a sip of tea and tapped the table six times.

Lu Yiming nodded and did not ask any further questions.

The person who can get Yinglidu to support him is probably not bad. The rumor among the people that the sixth prince is most similar to the useless emperor is probably also a rumor. You can get a glimpse of it just by working with Gu Huan at the Yuelai Restaurant.

When the two came out of the study, Gu Huan and Jiang Runshan had just finished the game.

"Teacher, there's no need to send it off again. I'll go with him."

Gu Huan got up and left with him. Now that he saw the person, he could give last month's hot pot restaurant share directly to Lu Yiming, and by the way, let someone go to the hot pot restaurant to inspect it. There are dishes that need improvement.

Whether it is modern or ancient times, the popularity of hot pot restaurants has always been high.

The hot pot restaurant successfully opened in late January, but now it is only open in Jiangzhou Prefecture and Beijing. When Lu Yiming and Pei Xing passed by the Yuelai hot pot restaurant on the commercial street some time ago, they originally wanted to go in for a meal, but they saw the door The long line of people finally gave up.

The little money fan is still very happy without eating hot pot. It is a good thing that it is popular. You must know that the Yuelai Restaurant not far away is not so busy. This shows that the hot pot restaurant is very profitable, and the husband can get a lot of money!

Lu Yiming couldn't help laughing when he thought of Little Xingxing secretly counting money.

Gu Huan, who was about to talk to him next to him, looked puzzled: "Brother Lu, what interesting thing did you think of?"

"Nothing, I just thought about my wife."

Gu Huan recalled the few people who stayed with the Lu family in Wuhe Village. During the days of eating and drinking, Lu Yiming treated his husband very well. He smiled and sighed: "Your husband is indeed very lucky."

When

the two arrived at Yuelai Hot Pot Restaurant, it was already overcrowded.

The waiter at the door was blind and couldn't help but recognize his boss. When he saw Gu Huan leading another person into the store, he quickly stepped aside and bowed to let people in.

This scene fell in the eyes of the fat man at yesterday's gathering of heroes, and he was immediately dissatisfied: "Why can such a country bumpkin get in?"

He specially asked someone to check it yesterday. Lu Yiming had no background at all. He was just an ordinary farmer. Knowing people With his identity, he suddenly became a little angry at his envious appearance later.

Do you actually envy a farmer? shameful.

Now that he saw someone swaggering in, he was naturally dissatisfied. He had been waiting in line for an hour, and instead of just waiting obediently, he saw that the person he looked down on arrived late but was not blocked. How could he bear it?

The waiter obviously didn't know who he was referring to. He looked around and saw no one else coming in. He was puzzled: "Who is Mr. Song talking about?"

"Just the two who came in just now."

The waiter looked in the direction of his finger and happened to catch a glimpse of Gu Huan and Lu Yiming's disappearing clothes.

This Young Master Song couldn't be offended, so the waiter explained to people in a nice voice: "Young master, you don't know. The one on the left is the head of our Yuelai family. How dare we stop him?"

Yuelai Restaurant and Yuelai Hot Pot, from their names, People who have been to the capital will naturally know that Yuelai Restaurant is famous. Fatty Song has also been there, but they don't know that the owner of this restaurant is so young.

"What about the other one?"

The waiter recalled the unfamiliar face and shook his head: "I don't know about the younger one. He must be a friend of the master."

After hearing this, Fatty Song felt a little better and turned back to his original look of contempt. He looked like a young man, and the waiter just let him in because he knew Yuelai was the head of the family. This man was still a farmer and a poor martial artist. He might not even be able to afford a meal by himself.

Lu Yiming didn't know that this man had so much drama in his heart. He was frowning at the hot pot seasonings.

"You prepared the seasonings and gave them to the guests as free dipping sauces?"

Gu Huan didn't think there was anything wrong. The last time he had hot pot at Lu Yiming's house, he wouldn't have known how to prepare it if it hadn't been for the demonstration. No one in Jiangzhou Prefecture has ever eaten hot pot, so naturally they don't know how to adjust the sauce. Instead of wasting it, wouldn't it be more convenient to just mix the ingredients and eat them directly?

The chef who followed Gu Huan also came out to meet the founder of hot pot. He had been working as a sous chef at Yuelai Restaurant in Beijing. After trying hot pot, he volunteered to come to Jiangzhou Mansion to work as a foreman.

It took him half a month to find the best taste for these three mixed seasonings. Now that they were denied, it meant that the results were in vain, and he was inevitably unhappy.

He spoke in a bad tone and asked directly: "What's wrong?"

Lu Yiming could understand this person's thoughts. There is no such thing as "self-help" in Dajing Kingdom. He tried to open up people's thinking: "This approach is indeed very popular among first-timers. are happy, but have you ever thought about it, if they use the same proportion of seasonings every time, after three times, they will no longer have the freshness. If they replace each seasoning with their own blending, they can try it according to their own taste, whether More sense of participation?"

"But what if I can't make delicious ingredients?"

Lu Yiming glanced at the chef, dipped some water and wrote "Reference Recipe" on the table.

Seeing that people understood, he continued: "Write down the ingredients you prepared before and put them on the buffet table for guests' reference. In addition, you can put some fruits here for refreshing. They are provided in unlimited quantities but you can charge two cents for the condiments. "

When he originally heard Lu Yiming say that he wanted to place fruits, the chef felt that this person didn't know how to manage things. When the last words came out, he realized that he was probably the one who didn't know how to manage things.

Recalling the scene he saw outside the door before, Lu Yiming added: "If there is a spare small shop, you can rent it and place some seats and chess boards for people to rest and wait. Of course, if you feel that this part of the cost is not worth it, there is no need to do so. So considerate."

The "number-taking service" used in Yuelai Restaurant is common in Yuelai hotpot restaurants. However, in terms of service, it is Moulao that makes consumers more satisfied. In ancient times, this could only be regarded as the icing on the cake, but it was not. necessary.

Gu Huan sent Lu Yiming out, looking at the package he had been holding in his hand from Yingli in a daze.

He hesitated for a long time and couldn't help but ask: "Is that the inheritance sword that Mr. Ying gave you?"

Lu Yiming nodded truthfully, very surprised, how did Gu Huan know?

I saw that the other person had a weird look on his face, and he didn't say anything even after he opened his mouth several times. Finally, he patted him on the shoulder.

Gu Huan said sympathetically: "Once upon a time, I was also given a broken sword with high hopes. Later I kept it in the study. When I saw it, I always motivated myself and never let up. Until one day, I was in Brother Jiang's house. I also saw the same one in the study room..."
