Chapter 26: Birthday Party Planning

"Wei Yu, Wei Yu~~"

Wei Yu's head started buzzing when he heard this voice. Compared to Bai Shuyang, this guy was definitely a real dad.

"Hello, King Ning." Wei Yu bowed slightly.

Si Muchu sat down opposite Wei Yu and poured himself a glass of water.

"Don't be so pretentious. I'm dying of thirst. I finally persuaded the Emperor to let you leave Chengming Palace, but my brother said this won't happen again. Also, you have to go out in disguise and pretend to be my servant."

"Leaving Chengming Palace? What are you going out for?"

"Of course it's to celebrate my birthday. I'll be coming of age on the eighth day of the eighth month."

People in ancient times generally matured early, and Si Muchu didn't look like he was already twenty years old.

"Bai Shuyang is about your age, he's almost twenty?"

"He's nineteen this year and his birthday is in April." Si Muchu said impatiently, "No, what are you talking about? He's talking about my birthday now."

"Yes, yes, your birthday is the big deal."

"That's pretty much it."

Wei Yu pushed the sweet potato ball in front of Si Muchu and said, "You two should be having your coming-of-age ceremony."

"Yes."

"Can I go to the ceremony?"

Si Muzhou said with some embarrassment, "It should be impossible. As my servant, you can enter the palace, but your status is not high enough to watch the ceremony."

"Oh." Wei Yu pulled back the plate of sweet potato balls.

Si Muchu's hand, which was about to take two sweet potato balls, froze in mid-air.

"It's not impossible to watch the ceremony..."

The sweet potato balls were brought to Si Muchu again intact.

Wei Yu said, "Tell me more about how to watch the ceremony."

Si Muchu learned his lesson this time and ate two sweet potato balls at a time. He finished them in a few bites. He drank some tea to get rid of the greasiness before speaking, "I can give you a set of eunuch clothes. Lin Su, you recognize them, right?"

Wei Yu nodded.

Si Muchu said, "Just find him and follow him when the time comes. I'll greet him first."

"The emperor will know about this, right? Will he agree?" Wei Yu didn't think that Lin Su would hide it from the emperor.

"Since my royal brother has no objection, that means he has agreed." Si Muchu said indifferently.

Okay, Wei Yu insisted. It would be best if he could go and watch the fun, but if he couldn't go, he could just stay at home and farm. Now that he had chickens, ducks and fish, Wei Yu was visibly busy. Basically, he could only have some free time when the sun was at its strongest and in the evening.

After a while, we will have to start arranging the greenhouse, otherwise all the vegetables will die in winter.

"Let's go. I'll go check on my vegetable garden to see if my eggplants and peppers have grown." Si Muchu picked up the hoe and sickle and walked towards the vegetable garden.

Now when he comes to Chengming Palace, he either looks for food or works in the vegetable garden.

Recently they have opened up a new vegetable garden to plant the vegetable seeds brought by Si Muchu. Si Muchu seems to be very confident in his planting skills and claims that Wei Yu does not need to interfere with this land.

If left alone, the grass here would probably grow better than the vegetables.

In order not to undermine the child's self-confidence, Wei Yu always secretly helps him take care of it at night.

"I didn't expect that my vegetables grew so well even though I was away from Beijing for a few days. I am indeed the chosen vegetable grower." Si Muchu was very proud.

Wei Yu laughed awkwardly, "Yes, yes, you are awesome."

They chatted while tending to their "own" vegetable gardens.

Si Muzhou said, "My brother the Emperor said I don't need to come here tomorrow."

Wei Yu paused, "That's good. You came here to be punished. It's been a month, and you've almost been punished enough."

He didn't know if it was an illusion, but Si Muchu felt that Wei Yu was a little disappointed. He wondered if he could have some expectations, but he couldn't explain what he was looking forward to.

"You don't want me to leave?"

She really didn't want to. Without Bai Shuyang and Si Muchu, the two loudmouths, the scene was much less lively. And no one would occasionally sneak supplies in for her anymore.

The happiness you lose is only half.

"Do you think Bai Shuyang will come back to work?" Wei Yu asked.

Si Muzhou said affirmatively: "Of course he can. It's not like he has committed any unforgivable sin."

At this point, Si Muchu became a little emotional. "His fault is obviously greater than mine, but not only did the emperor take away my military power, he also asked me to farm the land without asking any questions. Bai Shuyang was only given a few lashes, but the emperor gave him free medical treatment and medicine. If he hadn't told me, I would have thought Bai Shuyang was his real brother."

Wei Yu silently complained: It’s mainly because you have a bad mouth. If you can talk as sweetly as Bai Shuyang, you can also become the group’s favorite.

Si Muchu narrowed his eyes and stepped closer to Wei Yu, "Are you secretly teasing me in your heart?"

"Don't talk nonsense, I didn't do that. I don't know what you are talking about." Wei Yu denied it three times in a row.

Si Muchu then buried his head in tinkering with his vegetable patch. "I'm thinking of getting a plot of land in the palace to grow vegetables in the future. I feel incredibly strong now, and I can't let the potential of these vegetables go to waste."

Wei Yusheng had no desire to live, okay, whatever you say is what it is.

However, the next day, Si Muchu came again, and the time he chose was exactly lunch time.

"You're not here to eat for free, are you?"

I have to say that Wei Yu has revealed the truth, but as long as Si Muchu doesn't admit it, it's not true.

"Of course not. I'm here to discuss the banquet menu with you."

Wei Yu didn't believe it at all. Sure enough, Si Muzhou's next words were: "Since we're here, I'll reluctantly have lunch with you. Yinlan, please give me an extra set of bowls and chopsticks."

"Go get it."

Yinlan: "Yes."

"Did your royal brother ask you to return to the barracks?"

"No? I don't know what worries my royal brother. I always feel that my royal brother is planning something about me."

Wei Yu recalled the plot in the book, and it seemed that there was no mention of Si Muchu's appearance. The author only used a few words to describe that he had been guarding this frontier and rarely returned to Beijing.

That should be nothing.

"Maybe you are overthinking it." Wei Yu said.

"Forget it, my royal brother won't harm me anyway. If he doesn't tell me, I'll just pretend I don't know and follow his instructions."

Wei Yu knows nothing about anything other than the plot in the book, and she can't play any constructive role.

She didn't want to get involved either.

What Wei Yu didn't expect was that after the meal, Si Muchu was really discussing the menu for the birthday banquet with her very seriously. Si Muchu meant that he hoped Wei Yu could help guide the chef in the mansion to make some innovative main dishes, and it would be best if Wei Yu could do it himself.

"It's not impossible. Do you want a theme of rapid development or a theme of prosperity and wealth?" Wei Yu asked.

"Is there such a saying?"

"Of course there are. Don't the banquet menus in your palace have any meaning? For example, roast suckling pig is called "Hongyun Dangtou", beef with soy sauce is called "Jingshangshangtianhua", steamed scallops with vermicelli and garlic sauce is called "Gold and Silver Abundant", and so on."

Si Muzhou shook his head, "No."

"Okay, leave it to me. I promise to make it a success for you."

Si Muchu left satisfied.
