Chapter 622 I Don’t Actually Like Eating Meat That Much
He glanced at the room and found it quite tidy. Ji Xiaobei also looked calm, so he felt relieved.
"Young Prince..." Ji Xiaobei called out.
"Just call me Master Li!" Li Yunjiong sat down.
Ji Xiaobei saw that the child, who was usually very sunny, had a dark face and looked much more haggard today.
"Mr. Li, you guys can talk about whatever you want. I'm leaving first!" Ji Xiaobei said as he was about to go out.
Li Yunjiong said: "Sister Xiaobei, please stay!"
Ever since he changed the name at Huang Po's place last time, Li Yunjiong has been calling Ji Xiaobei this way.
Ji Xiaobei didn't think there was anything wrong, but Fu Jichang was shocked.
He is a noble little prince!
Ji Xiaobei didn't hesitate and sat on the stool opposite Li Yunjiong.
When Fu Jichang saw the two people sitting opposite him, he was a little hesitant about whether he should go over and sit down.
"Master Fu, come and sit down too!"
On the way here, Li Yunjiong had already thought of the wording. He asked, "The emperor will go to pray the day after tomorrow. Is Fu Jichang ready?"
Fu Jichang nodded: "We are fully prepared to ensure the safety of the emperor."
The young prince's eyes deepened and he said, "Master Fu, the New Year is approaching, and there are many officials coming and going from various places. You should be more careful."
Ji Xiaobei heard the hidden meaning in the young prince's words and he was worried about the emperor's safety.
"Young Prince, did you hear something? You might as well just say it." Ji Xiaobei thought, since it was inconvenient for him to say it directly, then he would help him.
The young prince's eyes became fierce. "My father is not in good health, the crown prince has not been appointed, and the government is unstable. I heard some rumors that someone wants to harm the emperor, so I came here to ask Master Fu to send more people to protect my father."
Fu Jichang and Ji Xiaobei glanced at each other, then looked at the young prince's cold and majestic face again, which was too similar to the emperor.
Ji Xiaobei vaguely felt that this child had a blessed face.
"I will do my best!" Fu Jichang expressed his loyalty.
"Sister Xiaobei, you need to take the trouble to help Lord Fu. If you need me to do anything, just tell me. I live in the palace on the back street of Hanlin Academy."
The young prince looked at Ji Xiaobei meaningfully.
Ever since the potato harvest, he has looked at Ji Xiaobei with a new respect.
He called Ji Xiaobei a remarkable woman.
He has nothing now and just wants to save his life.
He used to think that his father had several sons and so many ministers around him, checking and balancing each other, and no one dared to offend the emperor.
In fact, no, my father is in danger now.
The danger comes from blood relatives.
He had been bullied by his brothers since he was a child, and he thought it was because of his mother's low status.
Now I think maybe I was wrong. My father was so high and noble, but he was still attacked by his closest relatives.
I don’t know if it’s because my father is too kind, or because my brothers are too cruel?
He believed in Fu Jichang's character and Ji Xiaobei's ability.
So, he thought about it all night last night and came to Mingyi Lane early in the morning.
If the little prince were there in Ji Xiaobei's plan, it would be even more powerful.
The way she looked at Li Yunjiong was different.
Fu Jichang coughed, stood up and said, "Young Prince, would you like to go to the government office to show me the security plan for that day?"
……
Li Yunjiong followed Fu Jichang to the door.
Li Yunjiong suddenly stopped, turned around and said, "Sister Xiaobei, why don't you come with us..."
Ji Xiaobei didn’t think much about it. She wanted to see the escort plan for that day, so let’s go together.
Fu Jichang frowned slightly.
……
After Ji Xiaobei came out of the government office, he went to the South City.
In the open space behind the yard, Zhang Yiyuan was energetically leading a group of men with bare upper bodies to practice sword and stick fighting.
Zhang Yiyuan saw Ji Xiaobei coming from afar and shouted, "The boss is here, put on your clothes!"
The men dropped their sticks and put on their clothes quickly.
When Ji Xiaobei arrived, they had already put their clothes in order.
Zhang Yiyuan ran to Ji Xiaobei with a flushed face and said, "Miss Ji, we are proceeding in an orderly manner according to your training plan. Do you want to check it out?"
Ever since Zhang Yiyuan and Danfeng got married, his choice of words and sentences has become more flowery.
Danfeng grew up with Liang Yuyao, and her way of speaking and doing things is like that of a wealthy family.
Ji Xiaobei pointed out some suggestions and said, "Not bad, we're going to eat meat today. I'll go buy some meat!"
The men cheered.
These days, they eat delicious food and drink spicy drinks every day, and they don’t have to work. They practice martial arts in the backyard every day, and they all have strong and sturdy waists.
Seeing Zhang Yiyuan grinning from ear to ear, Ji Xiaobei asked, "Be nice to Miss Danfeng, she's a good girl!"
"Sister Xiaobei, don't worry, I'm 100% good to her, otherwise I wouldn't be able to get past you!"
Zhang Yiyuan's face was so bright from smiling.
Ji Xiaobei went to the front yard again. Danfeng was helping Xiaoju run the handicraft shop. When she saw Ji Xiaobei coming, she ran over.
"Miss Ji, the women practice every day. When will you review them?"
Danfeng's face became rosy and her complexion looked much better.
"Just follow the steps!" Ji Xiaobei said with a smile, "If Yiyuan bullies you, just come and complain to me."
Danfeng smiled carelessly: "Thank you Miss Ji, I can handle him."
Ji Xiaobei laughed. Danfeng was a frank and straightforward girl, very likable.
"Tell the kitchen that we're going to have pork today. I'll go buy some."
"Okay!" Danfeng ran to the kitchen at the speed of wind.
Ji Xiaobei went to the Nanjiao Market and happened to meet a man selling wild boars.
What a big one.
Ji Xiaobei walked around in a circle and must have weighed at least three or four hundred kilograms.
She bought it for five taels of silver.
The man was sent to the workshop.
It took five men working together to lift it down.
Zhang Yiyuan and the men processed it and cut it into small pieces.
I cooked two full pots.
The yard was filled with fragrance and Ji Xiaobei swallowed several times.
A large wooden basin filled with cooked pork was placed in the middle of the main room.
No one took any action and waited for Ji Xiaobei to come.
Ji Xiaobei first picked up a piece with chopsticks and took a bite. Wow, his mouth was full of oil, fatty but not greasy.
"Come on, eat! Everyone eat!"
The men all took action.
Ji Xiaobei came to the women with the pork on his chopsticks. The women gathered around a pot of pork, discussing which piece was the best to freeze so that they could cook it into a big dish in the workshop during the New Year.
Ji Xiaobei stuffed his mouth with meat: "No need to save any, eat it all, we'll buy more during the Chinese New Year..."
Ji Xiaobei swallowed what was in his mouth, tilted his head and took another bite of the meat on the chopsticks.
Seeing their boss like this, the women completely relaxed.
"Xiaobei, come here. This is the best piece of the pig that the mistress picked for you..."
Ji Ernai handed over a piece.
"Second wife, hiccup... Actually, I don't like meat that much... hiccup... I don't really like eating meat..."
Ji Xiaobei wanted to refuse verbally, but his hands honestly took the mistress's flesh.
The third grandmother said, "Yes, I know Xiaobei. She has always loved meat since she was a child. That year, her father came back and weighed a pound of pork, and she ate half a pound herself..."
"Hahahaha... weren't we poor back then?"
Aunt Song hurriedly helped Ji Xiaobei to block it back.
