MTL - Five Years Later, She Bombarded the Palace with a Miniature Version of the Regent-Chapter 435 Who is the master of the Moon Mansion
Chapter 435 Who is the master of Yuemanlou
"Princess, you seem not qualified to investigate the whereabouts of our princess."
Qianqing looked at Yu Xiaoxiao expressionlessly.
Although she was dressed as a maidservant, even a blind person could see her aura, and she gave Yu Xiaoxiao a hard head.
Her face is cold, even without makeup, she still looks good.
Yu Xiaoxiao, on the other hand, looks tacky with heavy makeup.
"This is the princess of Zhenbei Wangfu. Why does she look so petty, even a maidservant?"
"Shh, keep your voice down. She is not just the princess of Zhenbei Wangfu, her sister is also the eldest princess, and her fiancé is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. What a noble status, if you think your words are not pleasant, what should I do if I cut off your head?" ?”
"Yes, yes, yes, no more."
"..."
Many people downstairs have begun to notice this place, they lowered their heads and whispered.
Yu Xiaoxiao was so angry that her face could hardly hold back.
However, she didn't want to lose her composure in front of others.
So, she stepped on her feet and walked towards Qianqing step by step.
"Your name is...Qianqing, right. My princess has a very good relationship with your princess, and I followed her here this time because I want to care for her. If you, a lowly maidservant, dare to prevent our two sisters from getting along, my princess will have ten thousand ways A way to make your life worse than death."
She warned Yu Xiaoxiao in a sinister tone.
"Why, is the princess trying to bully others?"
Qianqing spoke unhurriedly.
Her voice is neither high nor low, but it is enough for many people to hear clearly.
I felt that everyone looked at her even more weirdly, and her teeth were about to be crushed.
She squinted her eyes and stared at Qianqing.
"Hmph, the princess has always been a reasonable person, how could he bully others?"
"It's just that our Shang family's Manyue Tower doesn't like to entertain lowly maidservants with dirty hands and feet. Just now when the princess went upstairs, I heard that the auspicious dish in our restaurant was missing, and you passed by there just now, presumably You stole it."
Yu Xiaoxiao continued to speak arrogantly.
She still didn’t forget to turn around and say to the audience watching the theater downstairs—
"Everyone, this lowly servant girl belongs to the cousin of the princess. The princess originally didn't want to make a scene too ugly. After all, she belongs to the cousin, so it's fine to deal with it in private. But who knows that this cheap maid doesn't know the rules, She wants to stop the princess from meeting her cousin, the princess and her cousin are like sisters, isn't she trying to drive a wedge between us..."
"Therefore, this princess cannot tolerate her making trouble, and must reveal her true face. As we all know, the Yuemanlou in our Shang family is not only delicious, but also puts all the heart into everything. The calligraphy and paintings, jade plates, Everything is priceless…”
"The auspicious dish just mentioned was the true love of the former empress dowager. It has been handed down for nearly a thousand years, and it can no longer be measured by value. It is also because of this that this lowly maid became greedy. It was stolen."
"This, this thing is too expensive."
The people below couldn't sit still anymore, they quickly got up and observed the Yuemanlou.
"I also knew before that the Yuemanlou is for both refined and popular tastes, and they are willing to spend money on decoration. Can you see that pair of calligraphy and painting? It is the posthumous work of Master Deng Yu!"
"And that screen, that is the most satisfying masterpiece in Master Xiao's life."
"Yes, but I never imagined that they would be willing to put this thousand-year-old treasure in a restaurant."
Those people went on talking, they were shocked.
"However, compared to this, shouldn't you be more shocked that Yuemanlou belongs to the Shang family?"
A surprised voice came.
Everyone nodded quickly.
Yes, this one is even more shocking.
For so long, they have been curious about who the master behind Yuemanlou is.
After all, Yuemanlou is one of the most profitable restaurants in Kyoto, and it can be said to be making money every day.
Even the drunken Qingyoulou can't compare to it.
But the master behind it has always been mysterious.
A few years ago, they saw that the head of the Shang family often went in and out of Yuemanlou, and the people in Yuemanlou were extremely polite to him.
So at that time, some people speculated that the master behind Yuemanlou was the Shang family.
But soon, someone overturned this guess.
After all, the Shang family has no foundation at all, how can the Yuemanlou develop to such a scale?
The only capable person in the Shang family is their prostitute daughter who married the second master of the Zhenbei Palace.
But this is not enough to show that the Shang family is capable.
Besides, the Shang family seems to be quite poor all these years.
However, since the princess has the courage to say this, I am afraid that this matter is true.
This Shang family really has something.
Yu Yunxi was in the wing room, and when she heard the movement outside, she raised her eyebrows slightly: "Meng Xia, is this restaurant owned by the Shang family?"
She lost her appetite in an instant.
No matter how delicious the food is, if the person who cooks it is annoying, he will lose his mind.
"No, no, princess, don't get me wrong. In fact, this servant just wanted to tell you about this matter. Neither the shopkeeper nor the cook of Yuemanlou is from the Shang family." Meng Xia hurriedly explained.
"Um?"
Yu Yunxi looked puzzled.
"This full moon is actually a gift from King Zhenbei to your mother and concubine. At that time, Princess Changning said that there was no food she wanted in the huge capital, so King Zhenbei recruited many skilled chefs from the people. , created original dishes for your mother and concubine. Later, he founded this restaurant so that Princess Changning could also eat hot dishes when he left the capital to go to war."
"As soon as the restaurant was opened, it attracted the love of the people in the entire capital, and the income was good. But the good times didn't last long, and something happened to your mother and concubine, and the Supreme Emperor didn't care about it. Therefore, King Zhenbei asked the second bedroom to manage the restaurant on his behalf. When Princess Changning comes back, I will return it."
I see…
Yu Yunxi clutched her heart, feeling very complicated.
Actually, my father...loves my mother and concubine very much, right?
The concubine mother has hidden her identity for so many years, she is unwilling to go to find her father, and she is also unwilling to return to the capital, maybe because of the Xiao family's affairs, she has hurt her father.
They obviously love each other so much, but in the end Yin and Yang are separated.
"Then what happened later, why did this restaurant become Shang's again?" She asked softly.
Mentioning this, Meng Xia became extremely annoyed.
"This restaurant is a sweet pastry. As soon as King Zhenbei left the capital, the Queen's faction took up its idea. They made Yu Xiaoxiao the princess, and made a marriage pact with the prince as bait, so that the second bedroom would hand over to him. Give up the restaurant."
"But King Zhenbei is always a variable, and the queen doesn't want to offend him. So secretly, they asked the people in the second room to transfer the restaurant to the Shang family for management. But in fact, this has become the property of the prince. If the king of Zhenbei will If they really pursue it, they can push all this to the Shang family."
"Heh, it really looks like something that the Queen of Qin and the Crown Prince can do." Yu Yunxi looked sarcastic.
