He smiled, then pointed to the plate of rose cakes, frowned and complained: "Today's rose cakes are not very crispy......

Xiao Changzi bowed down and said, "Eunuch Liu, who specializes in making dim sum, cut his finger yesterday, so today's pastries are all made by his apprentice." Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo”

"Oh, is it badly hurt?" - Mingming's mouth has been raised, so he cares. This eunuch Liu has also served her for many years, and her skills in making dim sum are unique.

Xiao Changzi said: "Don't worry, Eunuch Liu only cuts a little skin, and it will be fine after three or five days." ”

Hearing this, Hao Ming was relieved, if he couldn't eat the top dim sum cakes in the future, it would be a pity.

"I taste just right, it's so crispy, it's dregs off when you bite it!" Hongli smiled and pinched a piece of rose crisp.

"If it's not crispy, how can it be called 'rose crisp'?" Mo Ming retorted with a smile, then pointed to the rest of the plates of dim sum and said, "If you don't like crispy, aren't there pea yellows, kidney bean rolls, and red bean cakes here!"

On the sea of Penglaifu, a painting boat of Zhang Xu ripples among the lotus leaves and reeds.

The eunuch rowed at the stern, and on the bow, naturally there were only two people, Wang Yongjiu of Shujun and Nalan Yuqiu.

On the blessed sea, the damp cool breeze blows.

Among the rippling lotus leaves, there are occasionally full lotus canopies, Yongjiu picked a few at the bow of the boat and handed them to Nalan Yuqiu: "Taste it, this is Xianglian, and the lotus seeds are very sweet." ”

"Thank you, Seventeenth Master, no need. Nalan Qiuqiu lowered his head and said.

After being rejected, Yongjiu couldn't help but be stupid, "Qiu Qiu, you don't have to be so restrained. There are no outsiders here. ”

Nalan Yuqiu still lowered his head: "Slaves don't dare to be rude." ”

"Do you have to talk to me like that? ...... The wedding date has been set!"—it is set on the auspicious day of the zodiac on the ninth day of the lunar month. is so unfamiliar, where is it like an unmarried couple.

Nalan Yuqiu said: "The seventeenth master can rest assured, when he enters the door, the slave will be a virtuous and prosperous person." ”

Yongjiu was stunned by these words, and only heard the sour taste in it, but he didn't understand it, so he asked, "What do you mean?"

Nalan Yuqiu glanced up at her future husband at this time, but it was only a glance, and then lowered her head again: "Actually, you don't have to come to comfort the slave, your concubine is pregnant, this is a happy event." When the minions entered the door, they would never dare to embarrass them. ”

Hearing this, Yongjiu couldn't help but be anxious: "That's why I want to explain it clearly! The emperor's mother is strict with our three brothers, and before Chang Fujin enters the door, she is not allowed to have a pregnant concubine!"

Nalan Yuqiu was stunned for a moment, why do you want to do this? This kind of thing is also common in ordinary people's homes. It's just royal...... There are many children who have not yet been wives. Didn't you expect Empress Taishang to set such a rule?

Yongjiu said: "Therefore, my concubines are also given medicine. Yao and Liu Jiashi were pregnant, not accidentally, but they secretly vomited medicine afterwards. So, I've grounded them both. ”

"I see, ......" - it turned out to be two ambitious concubines, and it seemed that she would have to face many enemies after entering the door. No matter who has the eldest son of the Yao family and Liu Jia's family, they will definitely not live in peace in the future. Although she was worried, Nalan Yuqiu felt a little comforted in her heart, it turned out that it was not the Seventeenth Master who deliberately embarrassed her.

"...... Qiu" Yongjiu took advantage of Nalan Qiuqiu's deep thoughts, and suddenly grabbed her hand, "The emperor has already reprimanded me, if it weren't for my excessive favor in the past, they wouldn't have been so bold." ”

Nalan Qiuqiu was held by the man's hand, her cheeks flushed, she hurriedly withdrew her hand, and then glared at Yongjiu angrily.

It was such a powerful star, but in Yongjiu's eyes, it was full of charm, which made Yongjiu's heart ripple.

Yongjiu said with a straight face: "I liked beautiful things when I was a child, and later I got through the personnel, and there were more concubines in the backyard than others." The more beautiful the concubine, the more indulgent I become. I've always thought there was nothing wrong with that. But...... But now—" Yongjiu's smiling Danfeng eyes stared at Nalan Yuqiu's cheeks, fascinated.

Nalan Qiuqiu only felt that his face was hot and painful, and he still felt a little incredulous in his heart, "Where did the seventeenth master fancy the slave? looks?"——Nalan Yuqiu felt that he was also outstanding, but as the king of the county, hadn't he seen a beauty? Aren't all the concubines in the room as beautiful as her? Although Nalan Yuqiu is confident in his appearance, he is not so confident.

Yongjiu smiled and said, "I like your eyes. ”

"Eyes?" Nalan Qiuqiu looked at him with wide eyes.

"I like the way you stare at me!"

Nalan Yunqiu: "......" o(╯□╰)o

Such an unbelievable reason made Nalan Yuqiu dizzy when she went back.

However, Yongjiu was very happy, because he went to Nalan Qiuqiu's grandfather's house again, at least he was willing to see him.

So winter is gradually coming, and the unmarried couple is becoming more and more glue-like, so there are few gossips at the bottom, and even Emperor Zhaoxian Yongju is a little overwhelmed, so he called his younger brother and reprimanded him very much.

"There is only one month left in the wedding period, so you can't stay in Brother's house honestly?!

In front of his brother, Yongjiu couldn't stand up, so he had to nod and comply. I thought to myself, I have to urge the construction of the county king's mansion, although the palace is majestic and prosperous, it is still a branch of the palace to go out and live their own small life leisurely and free......

Just half a month before the marriage, something happened in Yongjiu's elder brother's office, and after a light snowfall, the concubine Yao slipped in her small courtyard, and her two-month pregnancy was gone.

For this inexplicable and inexplicable child, Yongjiu didn't feel too sad, but it was inevitable that he would pity Yao's a little, so he asked the imperial doctor to give her a good life.

Grounded in the same courtyard as Yao's, it was the concubine Liu Jia's, Liu Jia's looked at Yao's pale little face, wiped her tears and said: "The former concubine is still making small clothes with Sister Yao......!" Sister Yao is really pitiful!"

Liu Jia's appearance is beautiful and moving, and now when he is crying, he is even more pitiful with pear blossoms and rain.

Yongjiu wasn't very sad originally, but being cried like this by Liu Jia's family was inevitably a little uncomfortable. Although he was angry that Yao and Liu Jia's were pampered and arrogant, and grounded the two, he also hoped that the two children would be born safely. - The grounding is not a multiple punishment, and on weekdays, Yongjiu's concubines don't go out much. What's more, pregnant women have always had to recuperate.

Although Yongjiu never really liked Yao and Liu Jia, when he looked at the pool of blood in the courtyard, his heart became more and more uncomfortable.

asked Yao: "Why are you so careless that you can fall down in your yard?"

Yao Shi was also in tears, "The concubine is already very careful, the concubine waited for the snow in the yard to clear before going to the yard to walk, I didn't expect it to be so slippery......"

Yongjiu couldn't help frowning: "Is there anything sprinkled on the ground?" - Yongjiu couldn't help but be suspicious.

Liu Jiashi hurriedly said: "The concubine took someone to take a look, and there was nothing on the ground." ”

"That's weird...... The soles of the flower pot bottom shoes are carved with water patterns and anti-slip, and they generally don't slip...... "Yongjiu is half talking to himself.

Liu Jia's face suddenly turned pale, she hurriedly lowered her head, and said weakly: "Yes, what the master said is true." ”

Liu Jia's abnormal reaction made Yongjiufeng's eyes narrow, and his eyes were awe-inspiring. (To be continued.) )
