(Hua Xiaoduo has given birth! The Nth couple that I've matched with in my novel has sent good news! Merit! Congratulations, I wish the baby good health and you two can be happy for a lifetime.)





"Actually, I don't want to live in the imperial city."

Standing by the railing, Li Zhongyi, the Tang Emperor, raised his hand and pointed to the dark blue city wall in the distance in the north. He said with emotion, "You will reach the Daming Palace after a few miles out of the city. There are green mountains and dense forests there, and the wind is cool. It will be much cooler there in the summer, and you don't have to listen to those ministers quarrel in the court. No one will bother you every day, and it will be much more relaxing."

After dinner, the Emperor took Ning Que for a walk around the palace. It was called a stroll, but it was actually just a chat. At this time, the sky had just turned dark, and the lights in Chang 'an had been lit early. There were still many sceneries as far as the eye could see.

Ning Que stood beside the Emperor and looked at the side of his face. He wondered why the Emperor would say such a sigh to him. Could it be that it was really difficult for the Emperor to find someone to chat with when he was trapped in the deep palace? He didn't have time to carefully analyze what problems were hidden in this treatment. He thought of the hot weather in Chang 'an last year and had a strong feeling of sympathy. He said respectfully, "Then Your Majesty should move out of the city as soon as possible this year."

The Emperor put his sleeves behind him and looked at the night sky of the imperial city. He sighed and said, "In the early years, when the former Empress said that she wanted to move to the Daming Palace, the ministers would cry bitterly. They didn't dare to say that I was neglecting the political affairs, but they had to talk about the ancestral rules. Although I am the Emperor of the Tang Empire, I often have no choice but to choose a place to live. Finally, no one dares to disobey me in these years. But even if I want to move, I have to wait until the summer to shut those old guys' mouths."

Ning Que could not help but secretly laugh when he heard the hidden bitterness in the Emperor's words.

The Emperor suddenly turned around and looked at him with great interest. He said, "This year, I and the Empress will move to the Daming Palace. Why don't you go with us and stay for a few days? Little Yu 'er always thinks that the outside of the city is empty and boring, but in fact, the scenery is very beautiful. "

The smile on Ning Que's face disappeared very quickly. He felt a little awkward when he heard these words. It was not like an emperor inviting a favored minister to rest in the palace. His tone was tranquil and casual, like an old farmer in the countryside who suddenly saw a young relative in the county and invited him to his farmhouse to eat some fruits, boasting that the well water was quite sweet.

His Majesty had invited him to spend the summer in the Daming Palace. He knew very well what it meant.

Since there was an emperor in the world, there was a royal palace. Since there was a royal palace, there were court officials. These people who were close to the emperor had a noble status and were respected by the people. Although they were not involved in court affairs, they had a great influence on court affairs. Although their salary was low, they could earn countless taels of silver just by writing some poems. If it was in the past, Ning Que would certainly be willing to be such a noble minister. However, he was no longer a young soldier in the border town. In addition to money and future, he also saw the mysterious world. Naturally, he was not willing to be a minister anymore.

"Your Majesty, I don't deserve your kindness. It is a wonderful thing to have Your Majesty instructing me in calligraphy day and night … "

Ning Que bowed respectfully with his hands folded in front. He peeped at His Majesty's face and said, "To be honest, who doesn't want to be outstanding and bring honor to their ancestors? But I just entered the Second floor and haven't seen the headmaster yet. It's really inconvenient … "

"I just said it casually. You don't have to be so serious." His Majesty smiled and said, "There are many untruths in your words. I don't want to criticize you. But why doesn't Chao Xiaoshu want to be outstanding?"

Ning Que did not know how to answer and kept silent.

His Majesty suddenly looked at him and asked, "Do you know where Second Brother Chao is now?"

"I really don't know where Brother Chao is." Ning Que replied.

His Majesty walked to the railing and stroked the cold stone railing with his slender palm. He looked at the palace under the night sky and said softly after a moment of silence, "There is a school of palace resentment poems in the past, such as red leaves on the palace walls and old palace maids and so on. But who knows that the palace is so deep, not only the palace maids and concubines are locked up, but also me. Now that I think about it, when I was the Crown Prince, I often went to Chang 'an to play and broke into the Spring Breeze Pavilion with Little Chen and fought with Chao Xiaoshu. It's really an irretrievable past. "

Listening to His Majesty reminiscing about the past, Ning Que felt bitter in his mouth. He wondered why he had heard all these thoughts of royalty. He had just written a calligraphy section and today was the first time he had seen His Majesty. How could he be qualified to bear such trust?

As if sensing Ning Que's doubts, the Emperor turned his head and looked at him with a faint smile. "Chao Xiaoshu is the one I like, and you are the one Chao Xiaoshu likes. I took a fancy to Chao Xiaoshu, so there was the name Spring Breeze Pavilion. Chao Xiaoshu took a fancy to you, so you followed him to the Spring Breeze Pavilion for a night of killing. Later, you were sent to the secret guard by him, so you could enter my imperial study. You left that piece of calligraphy in my imperial study, so I know you. These words seem to be roundabout and unclear, but they only mean one thing. "

Ning Que knew that he could not keep silent at this time and had to join in the fun. So he hurriedly asked, "What does it mean?"

The Emperor smiled and said, "It means that there is some fate between you and me, just like between me and Chao Xiaoshu."

Fate was a good word. Ning Que thought happily in his heart. The Emperor of the Tang Empire thought that there was fate between him and Ning Que. Then in the secular world, he would have an amulet or even a card to avoid death. Many things in the future would be much smoother.

The Emperor looked at him and said with a faint smile, "Since there is fate between me and you, you should not be so stingy. Bring more of the calligraphy in the shop to the palace for me to see. Just take it that I am borrowing it from you."

Fate was not a good word. Ning Que thought painfully in his heart. As the saying goes, once you enter the palace, you will be as deep as the sea. If those calligraphy that were like silver notes entered the imperial study, how could they see the light of day again? As for borrowing, it was even worse. If the Emperor of the Tang Empire borrowed something from you, would you have the face to ask him to return it?

At this time, he could not refuse His Majesty's request to borrow his calligraphy. One had to know that as the Emperor of the Great Tang, he had the right and strength to be unreasonable to anyone. But today, the Emperor had invited him to a meal and had a heart-to-heart talk with him. Not only did he reason with him for half a day, he even began to talk about friendship and fate. How could he refuse?

Ning Que raised his head and said resolutely, "Tomorrow, I will send the works of these years to the palace for guidance, Your Majesty."

The Emperor was full of comfort and stroked his long beard. He looked at the young man in front of him and nodded slightly, thinking that he was not an idiot to the extreme.

The determination on Ning Que's face quickly turned into sadness and sadness in the next moment. He looked at the Emperor and said bitterly, "So Your Majesty is waiting for me here."

"The Tang Empire values the law. Even if I am the Emperor, I can't take things from people by force."

The Emperor smiled proudly. Looking at the painful expression on Ning Que's face, he comforted him and said, "Of course, I will not take your things for nothing."

Ning Que heard this and became spirited. He thought that even if it was the cost price, the price of friendship and the price of fate, the Emperor would not be too stingy.

The Emperor thought for a while and said, "Compared with your handwriting, it is too vulgar to give you some gold and silver."

In Ning Que's view, the most elegant and wonderful thing in the world was silver. As for gold, it could be classified as sacred. At this time, when he heard that His Majesty thought gold and silver were too vulgar, he could not help feeling disappointed. However, he could not say that it was not vulgar at this time, so he had to control his temper and listen to the Emperor. He thought that if he did not give him cash, it would be good to give some royal treasures, satin or makeup powder. Although he did not need them, Sangsang would definitely like them. If there were leftovers, he could give them to those girls in the House of Red Sleeves.

Of course, the Emperor did not know that Ning Que was planning to give the royal gifts to the girls in the brothel. After thinking for a while, he suddenly thought of something and said with his eyes slightly brightened, "Master Yan Se has accepted you as a disciple and said that you have the potential to be a Divine Talisman Master. There is just one thing in the palace that is suitable for you."

Ning Que asked curiously, "Your Majesty, what is it?"

"I can't show it to you now. Even if you see it, you won't understand it." The Emperor looked at him and said with a smile, "When Master Yan Se reports to me that you have really entered the Talisman Taoism, I will give it to you."

Ning Que slightly frowned and thought, "What is it that it should be related to one's cultivation?" However, since His Majesty refused to say, he had to salute and thank the Emperor for the reward that he had not yet received and did not even know what it was.

Seeing that it was getting late, he remembered the thing he had thought about before entering the palace and reported respectfully, "Your Majesty, since I have now entered the Second floor of the Academy, should I resign from the job of a secret guard?"

After being slightly startled, the Emperor shook his head in an unquestionable manner to express his opposition. Looking into his eyes, he said, "I have seen the file the Ministry of Military Affairs presented. Your performance in the frontier fortress and the wastelands was excellent, even exceeding my imagination. You are loyal to the empire, take good care of your comrades, and are good at making decisions and killing people. I need a secret guard like you. "

"But in the Academy, I really don't know what to investigate."

Ning Que seemed to ask casually, but in fact, he wanted to find the answer that had been puzzling him for a year from His Majesty's answer. He wanted to know whether the imperial court was afraid of the Academy or not, and whether he was a hidden card placed in the Academy by the palace.

The Emperor looked at him and unhappily scolded, "Idiot! The Academy is the foundation of the Tang Empire. Will I be stupid enough to shake the foundation of the empire? Who asked you to investigate the Academy? I asked you to pay attention to those cultivators! "

Ning Que acted like an idiotic loyal subject and hurriedly agreed. In fact, he still did not understand. If he studied in the Academy, the cultivators he contacted were all students of the Academy. How could he monitor other cultivators? As for being scolded as an idiot by His Majesty, he was even more resentful. He thought to himself that in this life, it was he who scolded others as idiots … For the sake of His Majesty, he would not argue with him.

The Emperor's expression became slightly better and he said, "In the future, you will learn from the Headmaster of the Academy on the Second floor of the Academy. It is a great opportunity. You must grasp it and work hard. Compared with your studies, the things I have entrusted to you can be put aside."

After a short pause, the Emperor looked at him with a solemn expression and said, "The future of the Tang Empire ultimately depends on young people like you. You used to be a glorious soldier of the Tang Empire's border army. Now you are my most trusted secret guard and a student of the Headmaster of the Academy. The Tang Empire will not bury you, and you can't let the Tang Empire lose face. Do you understand? "

Ning Que heard the trust and respect in the Emperor's words. His heart trembled slightly and he replied, "I understand."

The Emperor turned his head to look at the Palace outside the railing, which was as bright as the stars and candles. Lightly, he said, "In the short term, I will not give you any official position in the court because the entire world now knows that I admire your calligraphy."

Ning Que did not understand what kind of logic this was.

"If I promote you, although it is because of your other abilities, in the eyes of the court officials, it is still a favor to you with calligraphy. Those guys can join in the fun with me, but when it comes to the imperial court, they will still think that calligraphy is useless. Although I don't care what the court officials and people think, I care what the historians will write. So I will not give you a high position and a high title, and I can't stay in my favorite Daming Palace for long. "

The Emperor turned to look at him and said, "Because I don't want to be known as a fatuous ruler in the history books."

Ning Que cupped his hands and said sincerely, "Your Majesty is a wise ruler throughout the ages."

The Emperor smiled and joked, "This is the eternal flattery."

Ning Que laughed and did not feel embarrassed at all.





After taking a walk around the palace, His Majesty had said all the things he wanted to say, expressed his emotions, and taken care of the calligraphy sections. Now it was time to part. His Majesty had specially instructed his favorite daughter to send Ning Que out of the palace. It could be said that he had given Ning Que enough face.

Under the light of the palace lantern, two long shadows were leaning against each other on the flagstone. Ning Que, who was one step behind, couldn't help laughing. Hearing his laughter, Li Yu looked at him in surprise. She looked at his expression and then at the shadows on the ground, guessing what he was laughing at. She couldn't help but frown and said in a low voice, "This is the palace, not the Northern Mountain Road. Pay attention to your image."

Facing Lee Yu, Ning Que did not have any psychological pressure at all. He said with a smile, "Your Highness, what are you talking about?"

Walking out of the palace, they stood on the stone steps and stopped.

Lee Yu looked at him with a faint smile. Her beautiful face looked even more gorgeous under the palace lantern.

"How many things are you hiding from me?"

"There should be a lot." Ning Que looked at her with a smile and said, "What do you want to know?"

Lee Yu said thoughtfully, "I want to know all of them."

Ning Que almost blurted out that she was so beautiful. Looking at the palace maids and old maidservants around him, he reacted in time and swallowed his sarcastic words. He said respectfully, "It will be a very long story. I guess Her Highness does not have that much time."

Ning Que pretended to be respectful, but in fact, his tone was still ordinary and casual. This kind of casual tone was equivalent to frivolous and rude to the Princess of the Tang Empire. The palace maids and old maidservants on the stone steps had lived in the palace for a long time, so they were very experienced in observing and listening. There was no reason for them not to understand. Their expressions suddenly became extremely unnatural.

If it was in normal times, the old maidservants would definitely come forward to reprimand them. However, today everyone had seen His Majesty's attitude towards Ning Que and noticed that Her Highness did not feel disobedient at all. They could not help but have some deviations in their thinking. They turned their heads away without a trace and kept some distance from Her Highness. They did not listen to the conversation between the two and even used their cold eyes to approach the palace maids to lower their heads.

Lee Yu walked down the stone steps and approached Ning Que with a smile. She said, "Speaking of time, if you have time in a few days, come to my mansion. I have heard many stories about you from Sangsang this year. I would like to hear your own story."

Ning Que knew that there was a strange affection between Sangsang and Her Highness that was beyond their social class and age. However, he firmly believed that Sangsang would never tell the secrets of his mission to outsiders. Lee Yu's words were just to tease him. He smiled gently and replied, "Her Highness should know that I will be very busy in the future. I really do not know when I will have time."

Lee Yu frowned slightly and said, "I have time, but you don't?"

Ning Que looked at her quietly and suddenly asked softly, "Does Her Highness want to recruit me again?"

Lee Yu's expression was as calm as usual. She smiled and said, "Isn't that natural?"

Hearing her answer so naturally, Ning Que was startled. After a moment of silence, he said, "Now the price is different again."

Lee Yu smiled and shook her head. She said, "Last time, I was sorry that I did not see your true potential and underestimated your confidence. But this time, I think it should be different. Maybe I will give you a price that you can't refuse."

Ning Que looked at her beautiful face and said, "There are not many things in the world that I can't refuse. But Princess, you are indeed irresistible."

Lee Yu was slightly startled. There was anger in her eyes, but a faint blush appeared on her cheeks. However, Ning Que's words had a double meaning. It could be said that he was frivolous and shameless, but it could also be said that he was respectful. She was embarrassed and did not know how to deal with him.

After a moment, she looked at Ning Que and smiled faintly. She said, "You are really beautiful."

Ning Que turned around and left angrily. He secretly regretted that he did not use it before. In the end, she stole it and used it.





The little eunuch who was waiting outside the hall to take Ning Que out of the palace was Lu Ji.

After walking along the imperial garden for a long time, they finally saw the imperial city gate in the night. The swaying palace lanterns were far away from the eunuchs and palace maids walking through the halls. Lu Ji, who had been leading the way with his head down, slowed down his pace and said thank you in a low voice.

Ning Que knew what he was thanking for. He smiled and shook his head without saying anything.





The deputy commander of the palace guards, Xu Chongshan, was in charge of the night duty outside the imperial city gate.

After a long and strict inspection, Ning Que was finally taken to the duty room beside the imperial city gate. He put on his shoes and belt again. After that, he looked at the deputy commander by the window and said with a bitter smile, "Why do you have to do this?"

There were only the two of them in the room.

Xu Chongshan's face was full of helplessness. He looked at him and bowed seriously. He said gratefully, "I have been worried for a whole day. Now that the illness is gone, I still have to thank you."

Ning Que looked at him, shook his head and said, "Lu Ji took me out of the palace. His Majesty must have known that you were on night duty here. I even thought that His Majesty might have specially given us some time so that we could check our statements."

Xu Chongshan said with deep regret, "Now that things have come to this, even if His Majesty has guessed something, I still can't say anything."

Ning Que looked at his nominal immediate superior and comforted him. He said, "Guessing and knowing are two different things after all."

Xu Chongshan walked over with his short and thick legs. He looked at him and said seriously, "If I really lose His Majesty's favor this time, I will have to rely on you from now on. My legs are short and I can't run fast. You have to run slowly."

He had just made a pun with Li Yu, and now he heard another pun at the Imperial City Gate. The deputy commander of the palace guards was such a person, and what kind of attitude did he have. Ning Que was shocked and waved his hands, saying, "Your Excellency, please don't say that. Although my waist and legs are good, they are not that thick."

Xu Chongshan pretended to be thin and unhappy. He said, "Although your waist is thin, your legs must be fat. Don't stand on ceremony."

Ning Que could not help but shiver when he heard the man's strong Hebei accent. He quickly changed the topic and asked in a low voice, "Your Excellency, isn't it too easy for our secret guards to be exposed? Eunuch Lin had pointed out my identity before I entered the palace today. "

Xu Chongshan explained, "Eunuch Lin is His Majesty's man. Of course he knows the list of secret guards. Other than a few people in the palace, no one in the imperial court will know your identity, including Her Majesty. "

Ning Que was relieved when he thought that His Majesty did not talk about the secret guards with him in front of Her Majesty.

Suddenly, he thought of something and asked seriously, "Then … Her Highness?"

Xu Chongshan looked a little embarrassed. He said slowly, "Guessing is not necessarily knowing. Didn't you say this before?"





"Greetings, Your Majesty."

"Sit down."

The Emperor waved his hand casually and gestured for Prince Li Peiyan to sit down. He put down the memorial in his hand and suddenly thought of something. He asked, "Did you drink the two barrels of double-steamed wine that I asked the palace to send to your mansion? Did you like it? "

Li Peiyan frowned and said honestly, "The wine was too strong."

The Emperor said angrily, "What's the point of drinking wine if it's not strong? You have been in poor health since you were a child. You have been spoiled by your mother. That's why you have such a weak body. "

Li Peiyan chuckled and said, "Anyway, I have my Majesty to protect me. It doesn't matter if I'm weak."

After saying this, he became serious and stood up from the chair. He began to report to the Emperor, "The West-Hill Diplomatic Corps is preparing to return. Longqing is also leaving Chang 'an. Your Majesty, please issue an edict to keep this person in the capital city."

The Emperor said casually, "The agreement was to let that young man enter the Second floor. Since he is incapable and can't enter, he can't blame me. But in this way, the agreement is invalid. If he wants to leave, let him leave. "

Li Peiyan was a little shocked and said anxiously, "My Majesty, he is a hostage of the Yan Kingdom. How can we let him leave?"

"The Tang Empire dominates the world by relying on its cavalry warriors and its unyielding spirit, not by relying on these hostages in Chang 'an who hang out in brothels every day." The Emperor said mockingly, "When the Yan Emperor sent the Crown Prince to Chang 'an as a hostage, it was not to appease me, but to appease himself. If I don't accept his son, won't he have to worry every night that my cavalry will break into Capital Cheng and attack his bedchamber? In order to let that old guy sleep better and live a few more days, I have to reluctantly agree. "

"You have to understand that it was the Yan Emperor, the South Jin Kingdom, and the others who cried and shouted to send the hostage to Chang 'an. It was not me who wanted this hostage. Don't the Tang Empire need to spend money and waste food to feed them?"

The Emperor waved his hand and said, "Let Prince Long Qing go if he wants to. Chang 'an doesn't feed useless people."





Ning Que got off the horse carriage at the entrance of Lin 47th Street and sneaked to the narrow alley behind the courtyard. He said a few secret signals through the wall and the back door of the Old Brush Pen Shop was pushed open. Ning Que flashed in as fast as he could.

Ning Que took the hot towel to wash his face and put his feet in the basin of hot water that was at just the right temperature. He let out a comfortable moan and felt that the tiredness that had accumulated from yesterday to tonight had been swept away. His spirit that had been tense for a long time had finally relaxed.

In one day and one night, he climbed the back of the mountain of the Academy, defeated Prince Long Qing, and obtained the qualification to enter the Second floor. From a forgotten student of the Academy, he became a genius fought over by the Academy and the South School of Haotian Taoism. Then he was found to be the owner of the Blooming Flower Invitation, entered the palace, had dinner with His Majesty, and chatted with His Majesty's family …

Shock after shock, wave after wave, came one after another. Such an experience was really hard to imagine, and it might be extremely difficult for anyone to replicate it in the future. It was too much for the bystanders to take in, not to mention him, the person involved. Ning Que was still in a trance when he finally lay on the familiar bed, feeling that it was extremely unreal.

Sangsang added half a ladle of hot water to the basin under his feet, squatted on the ground and looked up at him curiously. She asked, "Young master, what does the Emperor look like? Is his beard long and white? "

"The one with long and white hair is Santa Claus, not the Emperor."

Ning Que reclined on the quilt and pointed at his sore thigh with his finger, motioning Sangsang to beat it a few times. He said, "His Majesty is actually not that old. What kind of person is he? I really don't know. "

This was a very honest sentence. Ning Que had always had a somewhat complicated feeling about the Emperor of the Tang Empire over the years. From the Natural Disaster to many details in the City of Wei's military stronghold, he could feel that the current Emperor was a legendary wise monarch. However, every time he thought of the bloody case in the General's Mansion and the murderers who were still sitting in the court, the word "wise monarch" would always be a question mark in his heart.

After returning to Chang 'an from the frontier fortress, he began to hunt down the murderers who participated in the bloody case in the General's Mansion. It was also during this process that he found out that the Emperor did not investigate the case openly, but did a lot of things secretly. Those who should be banished or demoted were demoted, and those who should be marginalized were marginalized. Ning Que naturally thought that these punishments were far from enough, but he had to admit that the Emperor had done enough for a long-forgotten case without any evidence to reverse the verdict or any necessity.

As for the culprits of the bloody case in the General's Mansion, Prince Li Peiyan and General Xiahou … one was the Emperor's younger brother, and the other was the cornerstone general of the empire. He could also understand the reason why they were still in the limelight.

Ning Que said silently in his heart, "Your Majesty, if you can't do it to your own younger brother, then leave it to me."

Sangsang sat by the bed and waved her small fists to rhythmically knock on his thighs. She looked at his face and could hardly suppress her curiosity. She asked, "Is the Empress beautiful? Her Highness doesn't seem to like her. But last time in the House of Red Sleeves, I heard from Xiaocao that the Empress is the most beautiful woman in the world. That's why His Majesty only likes her for so many years. "

Feeling the small fists knocking on his thighs, Ning Que comfortably squinted his eyes and said, "I think you should stay away from Xiaocao. You can't learn anything from her. You can only learn to talk about the palace like a gossipy woman."

Sangsang said, "I'm just curious."

Ning Que suddenly thought of something and opened his eyes. He sighed and said, "I can't see anything special about the Empress, and it's hard for His Majesty to sum it up. But at least I know that if he were to do business, he would definitely be a good helper."





The master and the handmaiden stared at the silver box on the bed. More precisely, they stared at the papers in the box. Their faces were full of heartache. After a long silence, Sangsang raised her head and asked unwillingly, "Are we going to send all of them to the palace?"

Ning Que said in a slightly hoarse voice, "Of course not. At most two-thirds, no … at most half."

Sangsang began to pick out the calligraphy sections from the box. Her movements were very slow and reluctant, and her face was full of heartache. Ning Que was also very distressed. He sighed with regret and said, "If I had known that one day, any piece of paper I casually wrote could be used as a banknote, how could I throw away so many and burn so many? Even if the writing is not good and the ink is smeared a little, it can still be used as half a banknote, right? In this way, how many banknotes do you think we have thrown away all these years? "

Hearing this, Sangsang's eyes suddenly brightened. She jumped off the bed abnormally quickly and violently pulled Ning Que off the bed. She lifted the bed board and reached in to search for a long time. Finally, she took out a small box. She took the box to the table and opened it. She took out the paper inside and said excitedly, "Young master, I have picked up many pieces of paper that you used to throw away. Can you exchange them for money?"

Ning Que was slightly startled. He subconsciously picked up the top piece of paper and glanced at it. He found that it was the funeral section that he had copied on the night of Zhuo Er's death. He was shocked and asked, "I have already thrown this section away. When did you pick it up again?"

Sangsang smiled and said nothing.

Ning Que was shocked and speechless. After a long time, he came to his senses and reached out his hands to hold Sangsang's slightly dark face. He said affectionately, "Sangsang, how can I live without you?"

At this moment, his stomach suddenly growled.

Ning Que took back his hands and rubbed his stomach. He glanced at the dark night outside the window and said, "It will be a long time before dawn, right?"

"Yes, young master." Sangsang asked curiously, "What's wrong?"

Ning Que said seriously, "At this time, I miss the hot and sour noodle slice soup very much."

Sangsang was puzzled and asked, "I heard that there are at least more than a hundred dishes at the banquet in the palace. Are you not full, young master?"

Ning Que sneered and said, "What do those ignorant people think the palace is? The various delicacies at the imperial banquet are elegant and delicious, but they are exquisite. How can they be served like mountains and seas? I, young master, have also eaten the imperial banquet. In the future, don't say such things outside, lest people hear us and laugh at us for not having a broad vision. "

Sangsang nodded and continued to ask calmly, "The imperial banquet must be good, but young master, are you full?"

Ning Que's face was slightly stiff. After a moment of silence, he said honestly, "Yes, I am not full."

Sangsang smiled and said, "I will go cook noodles."
