The Yasukuni New Year is from the first day of the first month to the fifteenth day of the first month, but there is no such festival as the Lantern Festival, so naturally there is no "Lantern Festival" to eat.

Chi Xiaoman felt that there were no lanterns, no riddles to watch, and he didn't even have to eat the Lantern Festival, and there was no atmosphere after the end of the year, so he ordered someone to find some ingredients for the Lantern Festival.

In the 21st century, where she lived, the Lantern Festival was called Tangyuan, there was stuffing in the glutinous rice balls, she used to like to eat sesame stuffing the most, so the sesame stuffing must not be missing, and let people prepare some almonds, fruits, jujube paste, bean paste, knowing that Yu Chimu does not like sweets, and specially prepared fresh meat filling.

In the kitchen of the palace, the cooks are curious to surround their princess, after these days of getting along, the palace knows that this princess has a lively personality and no shelf, and is very good to the people, so everyone loves her very much.

And everyone knows that the princess has the title of Tianji Star, how smart and powerful, even the current saint has to respect her for three points, and now that they know that the princess can cook, the cooks are naturally excited and curious.

Chi Xiaoman is a foodie, but he is not so industrious, let people prepare the ingredients, and see the cooks all gathered around, just to save her trouble, she can be taught at one time, and then they will make it for the whole house to eat.

"Let's take a good look, this thing is called Lantern Festival, also known as glutinous rice balls, and it's quite easy to make. Chi Xiaoman said, while kneading the glutinous rice flour into a circle, then pressing out the grooves with his fingers, digging out some sesame fillings with a small spoon and putting them in, wrapping the whole stuffing with glutinous rice flour, rubbing it round, and then saying: "This is done." Make more of it, put it in a pot and boil it in water and you can eat it. ”

She explained that her hands kept moving. At once, she wrapped a dozen or so of them and gave them to the chef closest to her. Let her put it in boiling water and boil it first.

In a few moments, she could pick it up, and she asked the cook to serve it to everyone and try it. Every cook was full of praise after eating.

They have never eaten this kind of thing called "Lantern Festival" or "Tangyuan", and they really admire the princess's erudition and even know how to eat.

This thing is really quite simple, and those cooks will be able to read it once, and they have started to make Lantern Festival, and soon made hundreds of them.

"Don't eat too much of this glutinous rice. You hold the weight, the people in the house, one person eats five, the prince remembers to make fresh meat filling, mine will give me sesame filling, I will let Qiao'er come over to get it later. ”

Chi Xiaoman explained, and then happily went back to the Spring and Autumn Pavilion and waited to eat.

This Chinese New Year, I finished eating this Lantern Festival. made her feel that she had really finished the New Year.

The next day, the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, finally ushered in this day, the day that Chi Xiaoman had been preparing for a long time - the day when she and Xiaolian became sisters with different surnames.

The palace of Huai'an is full of lights. Full of joy, the atmosphere is more lively than the New Year. Because there are really no celebrations for the Yasukuni New Year, and the shops are not open. It's even more boring than usual, it's just that everyone is walking around.

The Yasukuni territory is the northernmost of the three kingdoms. The time series has passed the first month, and the climate is cold. Chi Xiaoman, who is used to lying in bed, wants to lie in the warm quilt. But today she is the person in charge, and her father-in-law and stepmother will also come over from Kirin Villa today, as a junior, she has to dress up and wait first.

However, at this moment of joy and celebration in this mansion, Wei Chimu has been a little wrong since last night.

Last night, Xiao Twelve and Chi Xiaoman reported that they had searched all the jewelers in the capital before the year, and they couldn't find the diamond ring, but they accidentally found the sapphire ring, although he listened with a smile on the side, but Xiao Man could see that he was not interested at all!

If she can't even see this, she is really his wife in vain.

But even if you see it, it's useless, and when you ask him if something happened, he laughs and laughs at her.

If she had been fooled by him before, she would never have been able to do so now, because she knew him too well.

While letting Qiao'er comb her hair, Xiaoman peeked at Yu Chimu from the bronze mirror. He was already fully dressed, looking out the window and wondering what he was thinking.

After finishing the dressing, just as the housekeeper came to report, and went to the city gate to welcome the return of Guan Nanping and his wife, he was about to arrive at the Huai'an Palace. Wei Chimu asked the steward to go to the account room to receive some reward and distribute it to the subordinates who went to greet him.

After the steward left, Chi Xiaoman ordered Qiao'er to retreat, got up and walked to Yu Chimu's side, and held his big palm, which was slightly rough from sword practice.

"Mu, you have something on your mind, why do you want to hide it from me?" she looked up at him, her eyes full of worry. The rest of the day must have been hectic, and the only time she could ask him was now.

"It's nothing, it's just some trivia of the Shadow Pavilion. Yu Chi Mu smiled at her.

"You're lying!" Chi Xiaoman was a little angry, his apricot eyes full of hurt from being deceived, "I understand that maybe you don't want me to worry, but husband and wife are one, no matter what happens, I hope you can sue me and let me share it with you." 」

In fact, she didn't want to interfere in his affairs, especially if it was the affairs of the court or the shadow pavilion, but now in her opinion, Wei Chimu's troubles have seriously affected his feelings and also affected her, because she really can't clearly see that he has troubles and let them go.

"I'm sorry to worry you. Wei Chimu looked apologetic, he didn't think he could hide it from her, he was upset throughout the New Year, he also knew that Chi Xiaoman had seen it, but he never asked, he was very grateful, because he really didn't know how to talk about it, his thoughts were very chaotic, maybe more because he didn't want to believe it.

"If you don't want me to worry, I'll be honest, the so-called one person is short, two people are long, and it is better to solve any difficulties together than to bear it alone. Chi Xiaoman smiled at him, "Don't forget that we are husband and wife." ”

Wei Chimu held her face and said, "It's not that I don't tell you, it's that I haven't figured out a clue yet, and I don't even know what to say......"

He sighed, and told Du Qingyang that he suspected that Fang Qi was the assassin who escaped on the night of their wedding.

"I know that Du Zuo has always been cautious and will not make judgments, so ......" Even he doubted his own master, and this was where he was entangled.

"The letter that the assassin left behind is obviously to frame the prince, if it is really the master's doing, then what is the master's purpose?" Chi Xiaoman pointed to the core of the problem and said: "I don't think it's to help you, on the contrary, that letter is obviously to make you suspicious of the prince, so the purpose is to let you and the prince fight each other." But I can't figure out how that would do that to Master!"

"You're right, I just can't figure it out. After learning the news from Du Zuo's envoy, he thought about it day and night, but he never understood.

Chi Xiaoman pondered for a moment and said, "Think about it, if you and the crown prince lose both, who will benefit the most?

Yu Chi Mu nodded, "According to the results of the shadow investigation, Yu Chi Xin and the national teacher are very close. When you cheated to death and left the palace, it was also the national teacher who saw that Tianji Xing was not dead. ”

"That's right! Speaking of which, do you remember when you told me that the killer of Huangquanmen was instructed by a person with extremely strong martial arts to kill you?" mentioned the national teacher and the fifth prince, and she suddenly remembered the matter of the killer of Huangquanmen.

At the beginning, when the first killer of Huangquanmen, King Yama, wanted to kill Yu Chi Mu, although she had been taken away by Ning Qingyun, the king of Dingnan of Ningguo, but afterwards, Yu Chi Mu mentioned to her that he and Wen Yuhang used a plan to besiege King Hades, and King Yama Zhong Yan said under his questioning that Huangquanmen was also threatened by his life, and the martial arts of the people who instructed them to kill King Huai'an were unimaginable......

"You...... Do you suspect that the person is...... My Master, right?" he really didn't expect the two things to be connected, but he couldn't believe that Master would want to kill him......

"I'm sorry, that's what I thought. Chi Xiaoman said firmly: "I remember you said that the martial arts of the king of Hades, Zhong Yan, are much higher than you, and there are few opponents in the martial arts, but even the people he thinks are terrifying, except for your master, is your master's master, right? Even if there are martial arts masters as powerful as your master, why do you want to instruct the killer to kill you instead of doing it yourself? And where is the reason for robbing me and killing you?"

Yu Chimu suddenly smiled and said, "Xiaoman, although your speculation has some truth, I can't find a reason why my master wants to kill me, and my master has no stake in the imperial court, so naturally there is no reason to instruct the people of Huangquanmen to rob you." ”

Chi Xiaoman looked a little angry at his smile, it was obvious that he didn't believe her reasoning!

"You know again that your master has nothing to do with the imperial court. She glanced at him and said, "That national teacher is also very suspicious, does the national teacher know martial arts?"

"Probably not, the national teacher can only astronomical and mathematical techniques, observing celestial phenomena and astrological phenomena. After Wei Chimu finished speaking, he said: "Okay, Xiaoman, let's not talk about this topic for the time being, your stepfather and stepmother should have been welcomed into the mansion at this time." ”

Chi Xiaoman was both angry and helpless about his attitude. She clearly felt that he was avoiding this topic, because he didn't want to believe it in his heart, and he didn't want to face it, his master, Fang Qi, was probably the one who wanted to kill him all along.

Although she could understand his feelings, it was too unacceptable that a person she had loved since childhood could become her enemy.

But as far as the clues she had so far were concerned, Fang Qi's suspicion was the greatest, but she couldn't figure out why Fang Qi was doing this.

Besides, she didn't have any evidence now, she was just speculating, so it was better to stop this topic, she didn't want to quarrel with him for Fang Qi. Then he said: "You're right, it's important to finish Xiaolian and Ji Minzhi first." ”

After speaking, she took his hand and left the Spring and Autumn Pavilion together, no longer mentioning the sensitive topic. (To be continued......)
