I became a concubine in the palace and cured my master's hidden disease.

De Fei also noticed the avoidance in her son's eyes and sighed, "Her status is a little low. But the master said that her fate is peculiar and she will live a long life, so I got involved.

If you really don't like her, after this year, when the fate of being unlucky in marriage is over, you can give her freedom. Don't treat her unfairly."

"Yes!" Zhao Yuan nodded! "In fact, mother should know how I got my fate of being unlucky in marriage!"

De Fei lowered her head, her dim eyes revealing a hint of cruelty: "There is only one chair, and everyone wants to sit on it! It all depends on your wishes."

"I'm not interested in that. I'm always worried about state affairs and locked up in the palace without any freedom. I might as well be an idle prince, eating, drinking and having fun!"

"You think so, but others don't!" Defei looked at her son with some disappointment.

"I heard that the concubine named Lin in your house is still alive and kicking despite a group of people trying to kill her. She is really a person born with bad luck. Be careful that the bad luck she carries will harm you." Concubine De looked at her son with some worry. She didn't know where the Empress Dowager had found such a person with such a strange fate that had not been seen for a hundred years. What if she really harmed her son?

"It's still unknown who will defeat whom. Anyway, up to now, both of us are alive and well. Although I almost died while going out on this mission, I finally lived up to my father's request and found the lost million taels of silver.

But there is a person hiding behind, and we have never found him!"

"Oh! So you'd better be careful. Otherwise, throw it to your father and let him find someone else." Concubine De was worried that the person hiding in the dark would take revenge on her son.

"Let's wait and see! Mother, please live peacefully in the palace. It's getting late, and I should go back too!"

"Okay! I'm still worried that the concubine surnamed Lin will bring bad luck to you. If not, send her away! Or send her to my palace."

"Not for now, I can handle it myself!" Zhao Yuan refused.

Defei wanted to say something, but after thinking for a while, she said nothing and simply nodded! She took out a carved lacquered wooden box and handed it to Zhao Yuan.

"Mu Shirley is wronged, this is for her!"

----------

When we left the palace, the sun was almost overhead.

I didn't plan to go to the Ministry of Revenue. Thinking of that heartless Lin Yan, my bright and beautiful face suddenly turned pale and weak, and an indescribable feeling inexplicably surged in my heart.

I was going to go to the street to buy something for her. The street was very lively. Two young lovers were discussing something affectionately at a painting and calligraphy stall. On the other side, a man was wearing a hairpin on the head of a woman. The girl was shy and particularly bright and beautiful.

He felt envious but also amused. His Lin Yan's mind and eyes were full of money and food. She was very boring.

He was thinking about something and seemed a little absent-minded, and his riding speed slowed down.

Guard Cao, who had been following him, thought something had happened, so he immediately pulled the reins and asked, "My Lord, do you have any instructions?"

Zhao Yuan shook his head and glanced around, only to see the large golden plaque with the words "The Number One Building in the World" on it.

This is the best restaurant in the capital, with three floors and six courtyards. Only the rich or the noble can dine in the No. 1 restaurant in the world.

The restaurant has a complete range of dishes, including not only cuisines from the north and south, but also dishes from all over the world. The chefs there are all considered to be the best in the industry.

Ayan absolutely loves it.

He ordered Guard Cao, "Go back and bring Master Lin from the Crescent Moon Courtyard to the first floor."

"Yes." Guard Cao took the order and left.

When Guard Cao entered the Crescent Moon Courtyard, Green Tea was asking Master Lin what he wanted to eat for lunch.

Outside, Zhiye came in and said, "Master, Guard Cao is here on the orders of the prince to take you to the No. 1 building in the world!"

"The best restaurant in the world?" Lin Yan was puzzled. What was wrong with Zhao Yuan again?

Green Tea and Branch Leaf were happy. "Master, where is the No. 1 restaurant in the world?"

The lively and cheerful Zhiye said in an exaggerated tone: "I hear Xiao Dezi talk about it all day long. I have wanted to go and see it for a long time!" The most important thing is that I can show off in front of Zhuye and the others for a while.

Lin Yan then thought of the No. 1 Restaurant in the World, which Manager Xiong had once described with envy as a model of making a fortune every day.

——Does Zhao Yuan want to take her inside for dinner?

——What if he goes crazy and teases her again?

——With the temptation of delicious food in front of her, how could she, as a foodie, refuse?

Who cares? When the enemy comes, we will fight him with our soldiers; when the water comes, we will block it with earth.

-------

"The No. 1 Building in the World!" A large gold-plated plaque came into view.

Looking at Lin Yan up close again, Guard Cao's eyes dodged for a second, and a ripple appeared in his heart.

Zhao Yuan had a slender figure, standing with his back to the light, his outline shining. He wore a royal blue silk robe, and his hair was tied up with a mutton-fat jade hairpin and a golden crown, which made him look even taller and more handsome.

He raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Lin Yan with a questioning look. "Why are you so slow?"

Perhaps it was the sudden dark face that was scary, which startled Lin Yan.

Zhao Yuan frowned slightly, thinking that his tone was a bit too harsh, and said in a much softer tone: "The food is getting cold."

The gap between the before and after was so huge that Lin Yan couldn't grasp Zhao Yuan's pulse. She could only follow him stupidly and watch what happened.

"What? Didn't you bring your legs out?" Zhao Yuan noticed that Lin Yan was too slow, so he turned around and said.

Lin Yan hurriedly shook her head, feeling uneasy and anxious. "I always felt that Zhao Yuan was very strange today. He left Xianyue Courtyard in anger yesterday, but he became so gentle after one night.

Moreover, this gentleness was not like him at all, or rather, it was not like what he should have towards her. Could he have also traveled through time like herself?

"Ninety-nine eighty-one!" Lin Yan couldn't help but throw out a time traveler's secret code.

Zhao Yuan rolled his eyes at her and said, "I don't know what you are talking about. Slow down a bit, the food will get cold! If you eat too much and your stomach is upset, I won't accompany you to digest the food."

It seems that he is not a time traveler. Maybe he has some new ideas about himself?

Thinking of this, Lin Yan began to stagger as she walked.

"Hi, third brother, I didn't expect to meet you here?" The fifth brother Zhao Gui and the eighth brother walked towards them happily.

Zhao Yuan had no choice but to raise his head to deal with them. "What a coincidence!"

"Not a coincidence at all." Lao Wu smiled and said, "I saw from a distance that Guard Cao carefully escorted a woman in.

I thought you looked familiar, and I happened to meet Lao Ba outside the door, so I invited him to come and see you, and sure enough, I saw you. Lao Wu Zhao Gui was grinning, and he had booked this meal today.

I heard that the Crown Prince seems to have fallen in love with a woman recently, who seems to be a bit similar to the concubine in front of him.

Why did he want to add fuel to the fire? Let them fight among themselves in the Ministry of Revenue first.

The third brother's protection of his concubine is a bit too evil. Although this concubine has made him earn hundreds of thousands of dollars, women are like clothes. They have been kept by his side for several months and it is time to replace them with new ones.

A person with a destiny of being alone, it's okay to play around, but the third brother doesn't really think that this concubine can change his fate of being unlucky in marriage, right? The fifth brother doesn't want to miss this rare opportunity to observe.

Lin Yan was extremely curious. She had seen the fifth brother Zhao Gui twice before, but she was not curious about him. She was curious about the eighth brother next to her. It was her first time seeing him, and she heard from the maid that his name was Zhao Gong.

Legend has it that he and Zhao Yuan got married on the same day, but his was a grand and lively wedding, with full enthusiasm, becoming the coveted marriage partner of the entire capital.

As for the Rui Wang Mansion, the only thing that can be described as deserted is that the door is opened like a sparrow, and it is still being used to discipline children.

One is a positive example and the other is a negative example.

Lin Yan glanced at them secretly. The royal children were indeed outstanding, handsome and unrestrained, and their smiles were so reserved, which was obviously different from the treacherous smile that Zhao Yuan often had on his face.

"Did you come in specially to treat us to a meal, Old Five? Oh! I didn't expect you to be so kind! As your brother, I am so touched!" Zhao Yuan changed the subject, and the smile on Zhao Gui's face disappeared. The meat on the chopping board could actually fly like this. This Old Three is indeed a stingy person who doesn't spend a penny. Sugar rooster, sticky feathers.

No wonder the second brother was targeting him everywhere. His mouth twitched, and his breath got stuck in his throat. "Third brother, you..."

"I have already ordered the dishes for you. Now all you have to do is pay the bill. Lin Yan, why don't you thank Lao Wu quickly!" Zhao Yuan shouted.

Lin Yan curled her lips, and walked to Lao Wu very cooperatively, bowing. "Thank you, King Wu! I'm sorry for the expense." It was just right that she didn't have to face Zhao Yuan alone, and she could have a good meal, killing two birds with one stone.

The eighth brother was standing aside and almost laughed out loud. He knew it was not easy to take advantage of the third brother, but the fifth brother refused to believe it and insisted on dragging him over to witness it.

Witness how he was fleeced by his third brother. Zhao Gui laughed dryly, "Ha, ha!" It was impossible to withdraw now.

I lost the bet last time, so I have to pay for my meal today. This won’t do. I have to make up for it somehow.

The orchids on the flower stands in the private room were all rare treasures, worth thousands of taels. The paintings on the screens were also from famous artists, worth at least tens of thousands of taels.

The antique calligraphy and paintings are all exquisite. The Eight Immortals Table is also made of golden orchid wood, and everything shows wealth and luxury.

The table was full of delicacies, all delicious and beautiful. The minimum cost of a meal was 1,000 taels of silver.

A group of people sat down, and Lin Yan stood aside with a serving chopstick and began to serve food to Zhao Yuan, picking up some of his favorite dishes.

In front of so many princes, Lin Yan did not dare to show her nature as a foodie, and acted like a virtuous lady.

Zhao Gui's eyes sparkled with gold, and he inexplicably wanted to annoy Zhao Yuan. He poured a glass of wine and handed it to Zhao Yuan: "Congratulations to Third Brother for his great achievement and for getting a beautiful bride. You must drink three glasses in a row."

Lao Ba was sitting on the sidelines and felt awkward. He was just about to say something to ease the atmosphere.

Zhao Yuan smiled and slowly opened his mouth.
