"It's nothing serious. We don't have time to get together when you return to Beijing."

There is no need to say anything else.

Chu Ze understood.

He nodded, thought about it again, and said, "We should find time to get together." He looked around, leaned into Zhu Biao's ear, lowered his voice and said to him in a playful voice, "You I don’t know how we spend these days.” I just returned to Beijing and couldn’t take any time off.

What I think about every day is how to find clues and how to arrest people.

It was only today that the heavy burden on my shoulders relaxed a little.

Chu Ze stretched himself comfortably.

Zhu Biao looked at him with a smile, like an elder brother who dotes on his younger brother.

Chu Ze had just been crowned king, and he had won the trust of the Tian family. Coupled with his outstanding ability, he was now very popular.

I have to be busy for a few days again.

Zhu Biao took the initiative to postpone the time of the small gathering.

Chu Ze naturally agreed.

When he returned to his house, Lan Yuxuda, who had received the rumor early, arrived.

Also arriving together was Zhu Xi.

The three of them walked in with gifts in their hands and smiles on their faces.

"Chu Ze, you are so famous now. You are now a king." Zhu Ping handed the gift to the butler, stepped forward, put his arm around Chu Ze's shoulders, and winked, "How are you? How do you plan to celebrate?"

"Such a big happy event must be celebrated. How about we serve as host and you order the food?" Lan Yu waved generously.

Xu Da answered: "Then go to Baiyanlou, this restaurant is delicious."

"Why are you going to Baiyan Tower? We are inviting our son-in-law. Why are you joining in the fun?" Lan Yu looked at Xu Da with disgust.

Xu Da was so happy that he said: "In the whole of Yingtian, Baiyan Tower is the best. If you don't go to Baiyan Tower, where would you go? Your kitchen? As for the skills of your cook, how can you rival others?"

Seeing the two old men pinching each other, Chu Ze sat aside and snickered.

He leaned close to Zhu Ming's ear and whispered to him: "The cooks in Xu Shuai's family are about the same."

Zhu Ping nodded with a "hmm" and then made a comment.

"Half a pound."

There were only four people in the hall.

The two old ones were pinching each other, and the two younger ones were whispering together with their heads next to each other.

After a while, Lan Yu and Xu Da set their sights on Chu Ze and Zhu Ping, and asked them to comment on which cook of the two families was better at cooking.

Chu Ze: "..."

This is really embarrassing.

"According to me, none of them are as good as Chu Ze's craftsmanship." Li Xing is now a laid-back person. Apart from Chu Ze, he has no one to talk to in the court. He was the last to know. As soon as he came over, he encountered this scene. , he walked straight in and said, "The tomatoes in the yard are growing one after another. My lord, would you like to show me your skills?"

"..." Chu Ze pointed at him and gave him a thumbs up.

He will settle disputes.

Tomatoes are sweet and sour and taste good when eaten raw or cooked.

Cooking is a breeze.

Chu Ze rolled up his sleeves, picked all the ripe tomatoes, dug out the seeds and dried them on a cloth, and used the shells for cooking.

Chu Ze plans to make a tomato hot pot.

The bright red soup base, paired with everyone's favorite dishes, made for a wonderful meal.

While eating, everyone chatted.

At first, they were talking about all kinds of things, but then the topic changed to the disaster in the northwest.

The geographical location of the northwest is not good.

Gansu suffered from drought for nine out of ten years.

This year is another year.

"I heard that the situation there is very bad. People are already starving to death."

"We have also heard that some capable people have already fled."

Chu Ze listened while eating, and occasionally added a sentence: "Didn't the Emperor already send someone to solve it?"

Lan Yu and Xu Da looked at him and replied, "That will take time."

"And let me tell you, Gansu is not only prone to disasters, but the roads are also difficult to travel." When Lan Yu said this, Xu Da immediately answered.

"Your father-in-law is right. We have walked on the road to Gansu before. Most of it is desert. The wind and sand are very strong, making it difficult to walk. And there are wild wolves at night, which can eat people." Speaking of this, Xu Da still said Shuddered.

He was unlucky to encounter such a group of wild wolves back then.

Their group of people were dead and injured. When they walked out of the desert, only a dozen people were left in the team of dozens.

This shows how ferocious the local wild wolves are.

To this day, Xu Da still has vivid memories of the scene at that time.

Chu Ze heard it for a while, but didn't take it seriously, let alone take it to heart.

Several people gathered together and ate enthusiastically.

It didn't disperse until late at night.

This directly caused Chu Ze to sleep until the afternoon the next day.

Zhao Si came to shout several times.

People can't afford to be stunned.

He squinted his eyes, waved his hands and said perfunctorily: "I know, I'll get up." Then he continued to sleep soundly.

Zhao Si looked at Liu Bowen apologetically: "Master Liu, look at this... How about you come back next time?"

Liu Bowen thought for a while, shook his head and refused.

"No need, let's wait here." He didn't believe that Chu Ze could sleep until tomorrow.

Li Xing couldn't stand it anymore.

He thought for a moment, got up and walked out.

Not long after, an angry curse suddenly came from Chu Ze’s yard: “Li Xing, I’m going to kill you!!!”

The sound was so loud that even the main hall heard it.

Liu Bowen walked out confused.

I happened to see Li Xing walking out from the side carrying a basin.

As if sensing Liu Bowen's gaze, Li Xing raised his eyes, with a proud smile on his beautiful face, and pointed behind him and said, "He's up. Mr. Liu, you can tell me if you have anything."

Then Liu Bowen watched him hand the basin to the servants in the mansion.

Liu Bowen: "..."

Chu Ze got up.

His face was ashen.

He was sleeping soundly when a basin of water poured down on him, giving him a chill.

When he first opened his eyes, Chu Ze was still a little confused.

He couldn't figure out who was so bold as to splash water on him in his yard!

After he saw who it was, Chu Ze finally understood and understood.

"We're not done with this bitch Li Xing!" Chu Ze cursed and stood up to clean up. When he turned around and saw the dripping bed, he asked someone to take care of it with a troubled look on his face.

Wait for him to finish cleaning up and come out.

Then I saw Liu Bowen who had been waiting in the yard for most of the day.

"Master Liu, why are you here?" Chu Ze walked down quickly and said, "Let's go to the side hall to drink tea."

Liu Bowen held Chu Ze's wrist, smiled bitterly and shook his head politely: "We have already drank several bowls of tea, and we just have to eat at your house."

Drink again?

He didn't even want to drink tea when he got home today.

Chu Ze was startled when he heard this.

Has it been a long time coming?

Why didn't anyone notify him?

It's getting more and more unruly.

Chu Ze called Zhao Si with a dark face, and opened his mouth to accuse him: "What did you do? Master Liu has been here for so long, and why didn't you inform us?"

"...Master, we informed you. But you were sleeping all the time and couldn't listen at all." Zhao Si felt aggrieved.

Liu Bowen pursed his lips and smiled lowly. (End of chapter)
