This morning!

In the inn, Tong Xiangyu was sitting at the long table, shaking the fan gently in his hand, humming a little tune in a comfortable manner.

Since the collapse of Yihong Restaurant, Tongfu Inn has become the leader in the hotel industry in the town.

Guests came back to the inn to dine one after another, and Dazui's cooking skills seemed to have improved to a higher level, which increased the number of guests.

Tong Xiangyu could only happily hum a tune while looking at the prosperous inn. He was not as anxious as before.

"Shopkeeper, what about the new dish that Xiaochen and I made before?" Li Dazui walked out of the kitchen and came to Tong Xiangyu to interrupt her song.

In the interrupted state, Tong Xiangyu looked at the active Li Dazui, patted his head, and said with a smile:

"Big mouth, I don't have that much money to reward you."

"But we have to make new dishes, but we have to pay attention to the price! Don't always make them for you to eat alone, make some new dishes with reasonable prices and add them to the menu of our inn."

After Li Dazui got Tong Xiangyu's permission, he immediately left the lobby. He planned to go and prepare things for everyone at noon.

The sun slowly rose in the sky, the number of pedestrians on the street gradually increased, and guests in the inn gradually appeared, and everyone began to get busy.

After everyone was busy getting all the dishes required by the guests, they collapsed on the long table and rested for a while.

Bai Zhantang patted the towel on his hand and said:

“I really didn’t get used to it for a while.”

“This is even better than before when there was no Yihong Restaurant.”

Everyone nodded in agreement, Zhang Chen said with a smile:

"Of course, you don't look at the current level of our inn. It can be said that it can occupy a place in the capital."

Hearing this, Guo Furong stood up straight and answered with approval:

"Xiaochen is not lying! The more you fry Da Zui, the better it gets."

After everyone lamented that the inn was getting better and better, when they talked about how wealthy they were, Bai Zhantang slapped his forehead and turned the topic to the previous case.

After Zhang Chen heard Bai Zhantang mention this case and gathered everyone together, he whispered:

"Brother Bai, I would almost forget about this matter if I didn't mention it. Liumen has been working hard to send the court's processing results. It is estimated that the county government will make an announcement in a while."

"This time Lou Zhixian made a small appearance in front of the emperor. If you didn't see his expression at that time, it was really a change of face in Sichuan. Anyway, I was amazed when I saw it."

When everyone saw that Zhang Chen was rambling but did not get to the point, Guo Furong slapped Zhang Chen on the shoulder and urged:

"Stop nagging and get to the point quickly!"

Zhang Chen then said with a smile:

"This time Dongchang stole the chicken but lost the rice. Xichang entered the palace first to tell the emperor the results of this operation, and also secretly sued Cao Zhengchun for not catching a big fish this time.

The entire responsibility lies with Dongchang."

"The emperor was so angry that he sent people to Dongchang to ask him whether Cao Zhengchun could still lead Dongchang. If he couldn't, then leave it to someone with the ability. The training would make him confused and he wouldn't even know what happened."

Seeing everyone's confusion, Zhang Chen explained in detail:

"Dongchang has a very large sphere of influence. Recently, Cao Zhengchun is busy targeting Tiedan Shenhou. Cao Zhengchun may not have known about the last action. It is possible that his subordinates did it without telling him."

Bai Zhantang raised his hand to signal Zhang Chen to tell him directly what he was interested in. Zhang Chen then said with a smile:

"Then let's not talk about them for now! They are still far away from us anyway, so let's talk about the things we care about."

"Most of the police officers who participated in the six-door operation have given birth to a first-level child, and some have obtained pill secrets and other rewards. The most important thing is..."

Zhang Chen held his long voice and saw everyone's expectant eyes before continuing:

"Our inn also has rewards this time, although they are just simple meritorious honors."

"But we have a name in the court. If we have any problems, we can go directly to the county government for help. By the way, the court will also give priority to these meritorious personnel in some matters."

Guo Furong and Bai Zhantang didn't feel anything about this, but the scholar's eyes lit up and he said:

"That means I will..."

The scholar didn't finish what he said but the meaning was very clear. Zhang Chen smiled and nodded to indicate that he thought well.

But seeing that the scholar was too excited, he poured a basin of cold water on him and said:

"Brother Xiucai, please don't get excited. The premise of all this is based on you becoming a Jinshi. Its function is to protect your future path."

Zhang Chen's words made the scholar completely calm down, and he thanked Zhang Chen from the bottom of his heart:

"That's enough! I believe I will definitely win the ranking."

Seeing this, everyone looked at the scholar with encouragement.

Seeing this, the scholar was even more moved and looked at everyone and said:

"Thank you all for your support! I will definitely pass the next scientific examination."

This was the first time for Zhang Chen to see such a high-spirited scholar. He usually looked weak, but he was not as high-spirited as he is now.

Bai Zhantang's eyes were full of memories when he saw such a scholar. He was once so high-spirited and famous in the world.

Seeing this, Zhang Chen even smiled and said:

"Brother Bai, don't worry, there is good news for you here."

After saying that, he handed an official document in his arms to Bai Zhantang.

Upon hearing this, Bai Zhantang took the sealed official document with trembling hands, and turned to Zhang Chen as if to ask if this was what he wanted.

Zhang Chen nodded affirmatively and stretched out his hand to signal him to open it.

I don't know when Tong Xiangyu and Li Dazui came to the long table and looked at Bai Zhantang with everyone. Zhang Chen looked up at Guo Furong in confusion. After all, she was the only one who was not here just now.

When Guo Furong saw Zhang Chen asking, she said carelessly:

"Of course we should all come together for such an occasion."

Zhang Chen didn't say anything when he saw this and gave Guo Furong a look of praise.

Seeing that everyone was paying attention to him silently, Bai Zhantang opened the sealed official document with a happy smile on his face.

After pulling out the official document, he opened it with some trembling and looked at the paper with the bright red seal on it. The document written on it was about exonerating Bai Zhantang from his previous crimes.

Bai Zhantang held the paper and said excitedly:

"My wanted poster?"

Zhang Chen said with certainty:

"Cancelled!"

Bai Zhantang continued to say with a trembling voice:

"Can I walk down the street openly?"

This time everyone smiled and nodded, and Bai Zhantang said with red eyes:

"I have really been looking forward to this day for so long! I, I,..."

Before Bai Zhantang finished speaking, Guo Furong held his arms and said:

"Old Bai, it's okay! It's okay!"

"Hey! I feel a little awkward as I continue talking."

Guo Furong shivered as if she thought of something. Bai Zhantang's emotions that had just been brewing were interrupted by Guo Furong, who was stunned for a moment and didn't know what to say.

Seeing this, Zhang Chen quickly stood up and said:

"This is a great thing! It also solves the knot that Brother Bai has been feeling for many years. How about we celebrate it tonight?"

After saying that, Zhang Chen looked at Tong Xiangyu, who agreed with a smile. She also had some ideas for tonight's dinner. In the past, Bai Zhantang was still worried about his identity and did not dare to go any further. Now she wanted to see if Bai Zhantang was worried.

Thanks for the support!
