There is a tavern in Xianyang.

Standing outside the door, Gao Yao was looking forward to it.

Wealth that does not return to one's hometown is like traveling at night in brocade robes. Now that one has been promoted and made rich, one naturally has to show off in front of old friends.

As for what Lao Cui asked him to do or ask for help, it was all trivial.

In Xianyang today, for him, most things can be solved with just a few words. As long as it is not a serious crime, many people are willing to make friends with him.

Apart from anything else, what about that powerful person who doesn’t like to nourish the kidneys and strengthen yang?

As soon as he entered the door, he saw two people drinking at the corner of the tavern. One was drinking happily, the other was crying. There were no people around the tables.

"Hey, brothers, stay away from that table, there's a madman somewhere!"

"This doesn't look like it! Are you mistaken?"

"No, that young man often gets drunk and makes a lot of noise. If his friend hadn't apologized, he would have been arrested long ago!"

"Why are there such people? Then I have to stay away!"

Gao Yao's cultivation level has improved a bit in recent days, and he has sharp ears and eyes, so he naturally heard these words. Looking at Xiaochuan's crying look, he was a little strange, could something happen to Lu Su?

He remembered asking Le Ye, and it was said that he had food and drink. Although he looked forward to meeting Xiaochuan every day, at least there was no problem with safety.

"Hey, the official is here, please invite me!" The waiter in the tavern saw the green robe Gao Yao was wearing and greeted him warmly. This is a big customer.

In the Qin Dynasty, black was regarded as the most noble, and civilians generally wore white robes. Green robes were regarded as scholar-bureaucrats, which surpassed countless ordinary people.

Seeing Gao Yao come in, the whispers in the tavern became much quieter. Judging from Gao Yao's young face, he was already wearing a green robe, so he was probably a true son of a powerful man.

Normally, according to the Qin laws, these nobles cannot beat people casually, but the rules are more restrictive for ordinary people. The nobles can just find a reason or a scapegoat to settle the matter.

"You go and do your work, I'm looking for a friend!" Gao Yao casually threw a few copper coins to the boy as a reward.

This guy has great vision.

"Okay, Master, please come in!" He got the money just by talking, and the boy became even more excited.

Gao Yao smiled and walked up to the drunk Cui Wenzi: "Old Cui, long time no see!"

Cui Wenzi raised his head and took a closer look at Gao Yao's face before he recognized the person and was surprised.

As a heir of Taoism, he is naturally good at facial recognition. When they first met, he noticed that Lao Gao was in trouble. After staying together, he found that Lao Gao's appearance kept changing.

From being troubled by disasters to being ordinary, now he is actually rich and powerful.

"Lao Gao, you have changed so much!" Cui Wenzi sighed.

"Really?" Gao Yue was delighted. He spread his hands and showed his old friend the official robe and the embroidered patterns on it. He felt very comfortable.

Cui Wenzi naturally noticed Gao Yao's showing off and complimented him a bit, and the relationship between the two immediately improved.

It is very simple for people with high EQ to be compatible with people with low EQ.

After complimenting each other, Gao Yao got down to business. After all, he had to go back to cook for the First Emperor in the evening.

"Old Cui, why are you looking for me in such a hurry?" Then he looked at Yi Xiaochuan, and Gao Yao realized something: "Are you looking for Miss Lu Su?"

Cui Wenzi looked at Yi Xiaochuan's drunken state and shook his head: "Take him with you and go back to the room!"

...

"What? You want me to give you a false identity so that you can visit Empress Yushu?" Gao Yao was shocked.

Yi Xiaochuan, who had been sobered by Gao Yao's punch, looked at Gao Yao expectantly: "Yes, Lao Gao, I heard that you are now the manager of the imperial kitchen, wouldn't you be so stingy? I'll take a look and tell you that

Just say a word and leave!”

Gao Yao:???

"Lao Gao, we have known each other for so long and I have never really begged you, can't I even ask you to do this little thing?" Yi Xiaochuan began to complain.

Gao Yao looked at Cui Wenzi and then at Yi Xiaochuan: "No, first of all, let's not talk about whether I have the right to arrange an identity issue. Do you know what the consequences will be if you are discovered? The lowest one will be cut in half, Yi

Three tribes!”

"What do we have to do with each other? I want to help you like this!"

Yi Xiaochuan's face looked a little ugly: "Lao Gao, you and I are the only people in this world now. Apart from you, I can't think of anyone who can help me."

"Tell you, it's impossible!" Gao Yao shook his head resolutely: "Also, I suggest that your relationship with Empress Yushu end here. If others find out, I will not recognize you as a friend!"

"Gao Yao!" Yi Xiaochuan grabbed Gao Yao's arm and shouted: "Are you really going to be so selfish?"

Gao Yao was dumbfounded and grabbed Cui Wenzi who was watching the show next to him: "No, Lao Cui, can you help me see if Xiaochuan is crazy?"

Cui Wenzi laughed loudly: "Is it difficult for a hero to be a beauty? However, I agree with you. There are some things that you should not think about."

After hearing this, Yi Xiaochuan felt even more aggrieved: "Old Cui, where are you standing?"

Gao Yao casually pulled Yi Xiaochuan away: "First: Don't talk to me about this in the future, otherwise none of our friends will be able to do anything; Second: Xiaochuan, please explain to me what happened to Liu Bang? What a harm

I have become a eunuch, and I must let him die if I have the chance!"

Yi Xiaochuan was shocked when he felt that Gao Yao had far greater power than himself. Then he heard these words again and quickly excused his good brother: "Brother Liu Bang is meeting you for the first time, how could he harm you? Besides, let's talk about it.

, he and I are sworn brothers, we have the same mind, how could he harm me!"

Gao Yao slapped Yi Xiaochuan heavily on the shoulder: "Loyalty? Do you think the ancients were the same as us? Loyalty and the truth are all a joke!

Do you know what I am now? A eunuch!"

"When you hit rock bottom, everything around you is true! Everything else is full of lies and deceit."

"I swear, if one day I have the power, I will definitely settle the score with that Liu Bang!" When mentioning this man, Gao Yao's face was full of sternness. If it weren't for Le Ye, he would have been turned into an eunuch by this man.

Now thinking about the scene of being cut, he shuddered just thinking about it.

Cui Wenzi shook his head when he saw it. The world has once again driven an honest man crazy.

Yi Xiaochuan quickly tried to persuade him: "Lao Gao, don't be impulsive. If you keep hatred in your heart like this, you will have mental problems.

There must be some misunderstanding about Brother Liu Bang, I will help you ask next time we meet, as long as the misunderstanding is resolved."

"Misunderstanding? Hahaha, misunderstanding!" Hearing this, Gao Yao laughed: "He made me a eunuch? The misunderstanding was solved with just one sentence? Okay, the time is coming, I have to go back and prepare the royal meal, just

Stop talking."

"Old Cui, where do you live? I will come over next time and bring you some royal wine from the palace!"

"That's great!" Cui Wenzi immediately beamed when he heard Yujiu.

"Then it's a deal!" Gao Yao made a gesture to Lao Cui, turned around, put on his hat and left without even looking at Xiao Chuan.

Different road non-phase plan.

After Gao was about to leave, Yi Xiaochuan sighed deeply: "Lao Gao has changed! He has become too strange to me. He is not willing to help me with such a small favor, and he also changes the subject and scolds Brother Liu Bang. Does he think I can't see it?

?”

"Brother Liu Bang is not that kind of person!"

Cui Wenzi looked at him deeply, without comment, picked up the wine bottle and drank it all in one gulp.

Some people see the truth clearly, and some people are still immersed in their dreams. This world is really funny.

...

Late at night, after Ying Zheng finished giving instructions on today's official duties, he suddenly felt a little hungry.

"Pass the meal!"

"promise!"

After a while, the chief eunuch brought over the first plate, with a bowl of water and a white and transparent lotus on it.

Ying Zheng frowned: "What does this mean?"

The chief eunuch explained: "The chef Gao said that eating too much late at night is not conducive to your majesty's sleep, so he made a light meal for your majesty, called: The Color of the Country and the Color of the Sky."

"Oh, is there any other explanation for this?" Ying Zheng was a little curious when he saw the clear water at the bottom of the bowl and the white lotus in front of him.

"Your Majesty will know the result when you put the lotus in the bowl." The steward explained.

Ying Zheng was a little curious, so he cleaned his hands first, then picked up the colorless and transparent lotus and put it into the bowl. The lotus melted when it entered the water, and then a fragrance spread in the bowl, making people swallow their saliva.

I picked up the spoon and took a small bite. The temperature was just right. The most important thing is that the taste was amazing, just like tasting the national color of peonies.

"Suck~" After a while, Ying Zheng had finished the drink. Like other foods that Gao made, every time he finished eating, his body instantly felt as warm as the warm sun in winter.

"Ha~" Ying Zheng yawned and lay down on the bed.

"At the time of the eclipse tomorrow, at the beginning of the morning (7 o'clock in the morning), declare your order!" Ying Zheng casually ordered before going to bed.

"No!" The eunuch in charge agreed quickly, and then his eyes were full of envy.

Being able to make flowers out of vegetables is a skill.

It's not like people like him who always have to look at other people's faces. Fortunately, he had made good friends with that high-ranking official early on.

The second day.

"Xuan Gao wants to see you!"
