Overlord's Road to Ancient Emperors

Chapter 07 You Prodigal Thing

Waking up in the middle of the night, Li Xu's first feeling was hunger, his stomach was about to be knotted, he hadn't experienced the feeling of hunger for many years, he was a little dazed for a while.

When he was a child, the conditions at home were not good, his mother raised him alone, and he worked outside every day from morning to night, and he was alone at home, often without a meal, but it was better when he went to school. After all, the school has a cafeteria, but he has little pocket money. Poor, can't get enough to eat.

At that time, I felt that such a life was really hard. In my dream, I wanted to grow up quickly, earn a lot of money, eat a lot of delicious food, and when he was really rich, he could eat delicacies from mountains and seas, but he still felt that poor life The happiest days.

It's a pity that his mother couldn't see the appearance of a successful person in the future, and he didn't enjoy a good day, let alone his mother, he also didn't live a relaxing day. He worked mechanically every day, desperately making money, and he was busy. The spinning top actually died under the truck in the end.

It really confirms the saying: When a person dies, there is nothing left.

At this time, Li Xu was still in the mood to rule out the mastermind of the accident. He lived for more than [-] years in his previous life and made many enemies, but there were not many who would really kill him. The first person he suspected was Mrs. Li Mother and son, and then the boss of the company whose big business he robbed.

Competition among peers is hatred, the boss has been robbed of business by him not once or twice, several times openly threatened to kill him, I don't know if he has the courage to do it.

The growling of his stomach brought Li Xu back to his senses, and he called out, "Come here..." He didn't hear a response for a long time, and then remembered that there should be only Liu Shu by his side guarding him at this point, so he called out again He said: "Xiao Liu!"

This was his habit of calling his secretary and assistant in the past. Those younger than him were called Xiao X, and those older than him were called Old X. He could probably count all the people in the company who could be called by their names with one slap.

It took a while for Li Xu to hear hurried footsteps, and then a thin man opened the door and ran in. He first lit up the oil lamp on the table, and then ran to the bedside and asked, "Your Highness, what's wrong with you? Your servant just now Put the little princess to sleep."

The little princess is a bit cynical, the two maids who serve her are not smart, and she relies more on the two eunuchs Liu who will coax her and hug her since she was a child.

Only then did Li Xu notice his reddish eye sockets, as if he had cried, and asked, "What else happened?"

Liu Shu bit his lip. He didn't intend to say it at first, but he still couldn't help crying and said: "Your Highness, you just lost power, and those people who don't know what to do dare to despise you, so the Governor of Zhao just sent a clerk over to send you It’s too much to say that you are not in good health and dare not disturb you, this... this is too deceitful.”

Li Xu thought it was a big deal. He had seen many people in his previous life. He was a deposed prince who had just committed a crime. He was exiled to the frontier. Whoever gets involved will be unlucky.

"Didn't you say that Zhao is our deadly enemy?"

"That's true, but it's too irritating..."

"Okay, I'll come back for revenge when I have a chance... What food did he send?" For a hungry person with staring eyes, food is much more affordable than gold, silver and jewelry, not to mention he is impatient to see what kind of food. Lord Shou.

"Slave...slave..." Liu Shu drooped his head, and it took him a long time to whisper a word: "Slave has returned."

Li Xu felt a pain in his chest, and he didn't know whether it was from distress or from a relapse of the wound, "You prodigal bastard! Next time someone gives you something, no matter what it is, take it as it is ordered."

Liu Shu nodded lightly, "Here."

"My lord is hungry, go and get something to eat."

Liu Shu got up quickly, "The dishes are warming on the stove, and the slave will bring them here." After speaking, he hurriedly left the room.

Li Xu has always been curious about how they managed to retreat with their heads down without hitting the wall.

Soon, Liu Shu delivered the food on a plate. The main food was gnocchi. They were exactly the same, the green vegetables must have been freshly harvested, because there was a different kind he didn't know, but the taste was exactly the same.

Li Xu reluctantly ate some, and when he realized that he was not hungry, he refused to take another bite.

Seeing that he ate less, Liu Shu persuaded him worriedly: "Your Highness, you can use as much as you need, your health is critical."

Li Xu knows that in this era, ingredients are scarce, and cooking skills are basically still at the level of steaming and roasting. The seasonings are only salt and sugar. They didn't bring a chef with them this time. .

"Is there anyone else in the kitchen?" Li Xu asked.

"Yes, Liu Lu has been guarding the medicine jar, and Tao Hong is still boiling hot water."

"Forget it, don't count on them anymore." Li Xu got up and walked out slowly, "Let's go, I'll show you a hand."

Liu Shu stayed for a while, then quickly took a coat and put it on Li Xu, and then helped him go out, thinking: Does His Royal Highness want to cook by himself?Will he?

However, he would definitely not ask such questions about his master. In Liu Shu's heart, his Highness is omnipotent.

When we arrived at the kitchen, Li Xu couldn't see his surroundings clearly at night, he only saw a girl dozing off sitting in a place with firelight, and before he could make a sound, Liu Shu yelled very rudely, "Liu Lu Your Highness is coming, so hurry up!"

The girl was so frightened that she sat on the ground, staring blankly at the person who broke into the kitchen in the middle of the night, and it took a long time to recover, lying on the ground trembling, unable to even utter a word of begging for mercy.

Well, Li Xu finally understood why she could only do the firework in the remote small kitchen.

"Get up, go to bed when you're sleepy, I'll drink the medicine by myself." Li Xu found that his temper is much better now, if there was such an employee in the company before, he would definitely let her pack up and leave.

Naturally, Liu Lu didn't dare to leave by herself first, and stood side by side with Tao Hong in the corner of the kitchen, lowering her head and not daring to make a sound.

"Xiaotao, come here, just do as I say." Li Xu knew how to cook and eat by himself since the table was not high enough, and later he lived alone for many years, and his cooking skills are really good.

Tao Hong hurriedly stood up and followed Li Xu's instructions. Seeing that she was holding a wooden basin and was about to pour ingredients into it, Li Xu stopped him and said, "Wash your hands first." Don't blame him for having too good eyes, those hands just now But it has been in close contact with the earth.

Li Xu taught her how to make pancakes step by step. The steps are actually very simple, but there is no yeast here and the dough cannot be raised. Two unknown types of eggs, mix well, pour a spoonful into the pan, and spread it out to become a pancake, with only a little salt and chopped green vegetables, the taste is still good.

Li Xu ate five by himself, and gave the rest to Liu Shu, "You share the rest, and you will eat this for breakfast tomorrow, cook a pot of pimple soup, and cook two eggs for the little princess. In special circumstances, the little princess must have two eggs a day." When conditions permit, I will have to add another glass of milk.

During dinner, he noticed that the little princess has a good appetite and is not picky about food, which is a good sign.

small theater:

Liu Shu: "Your Highness, just now someone gave you ten beauties and ten beautiful boys."

Li Xu: "Retire, resign, what do I do with employees who can't work?"

Liu Shu: "Didn't you say that no matter what others give you, you will accept everything?"

Li Xu: "...Then, send them to work in the factory, and throw out those who are disobedient and unwilling to work."
