The few people sitting around the table looked at the bowl of Yangchun noodles in front of them, and were speechless for a while. Dongfang Du said with a little embarrassment: "In the kitchen, there is only flour...... "There is no rice, no meat, not even a leaf of wild vegetables, so I can only knead the dough and make noodles - noodles with no dish ingredients, only clear soup - Yangchun noodles."

In the past, in winter, the kitchen was stocked with rice, flour, cured meat, Chinese cabbage, etc., who would have thought that in today's kitchen, there is not much flour left, and it is roughly estimated that it is only enough for a few of them to eat two meals.

Dongfangdu, who had just entered the kitchen to help Wu Yazi make lunch, saw Wu Yazi twisting his old waist and kneading the dough, so he hurriedly stepped forward and pulled Wu Yazi away, "Master, why do you want to make noodles for us to eat?" Let me do this dough kneading work. "Looking at the elderly Wuyazi kneading dough, I really feel sad.

"Ahem, didn't you say that the noodles made by the master were delicious since you were a child, and you left one after another, and the master didn't have a chance to make noodles for you again." Wu Yazi sighed with a slightly red face, "This dough is almost kneaded."

"When did I say that Master's noodles are delicious? Aren't they all senior sisters......" Seeing Wu Yazi glaring at him, Dongfang Du hurriedly changed his words and said: "Ahem, the noodles made by senior sister are not as good as those made by master!" The hippie smiled and continued to Wuyazi, "Let me do it today." ”

"By the way, Master, have you salted the meat and cut it? I'll make a cured meat and scrambled egg later. Dongfangdu, who was kneading his face, turned his head sideways and said to Wuyazi who was standing on the side.

"I didn't ...... There are no more cured meats. "No cliff is embarrassed.

"Then cut a cabbage, scrambled eggs with cabbage are also delicious." Dongfang Du picked up the rolling pin, said to Wu Yazi, and turned his head to roll out the dough sheet after speaking.

"There are no more cabbages...... "Wu Yazi's voice was soft, and he really wanted to leave the kitchen.

"Forget it, I'll fry a few eggs in a while." Dongfang Du thought about noodles and eggs, although it was a little simpler, but it was also passable, who knew that Wu Yazi whispered: "Now there is nothing but flour, there is nothing to ......" It's good to have noodles, don't think about meat, eggs, and the like.

What did you just hear your master say? Wu Yazi said that there was nothing but flour! Dongfang Du turned around and looked at Wu Yazi in disbelief: "Master, what are you talking about?" I didn't hear you. "Nothing, Master, are you kidding! Do you want the imperial sister to eat a bowl of noodles with nothing?! Dongfang Du really wanted to throw a rolling pin!

Dongfang Du looked directly at Wuyazi in front of him, "Nothing!" Only flour! "This is to make Yangchun noodles! No, the Yangchun noodles also threw a few vegetable leaves, and what she did was the best of the Yangchun noodles - she didn't put any noodles.

"Master, you are at the top of the mountain, what are you going to eat to fill your stomach?" Dongfang Du still can't believe it, how can there be nothing but flour!

Wu Yazi said shyly: "Catch pheasants and hares, go to the lake to catch fish, you can fill your stomach...... said and sold a cute: "Xiaoduer, why don't you go and catch a pheasant for you?" ”

"Uh......" Dongfang Du was helpless and shook his head, "Forget it, it's too late, just eat something, I'll look for it when I'm free in the afternoon." "This noodle is going to be cooked, how can I wait for the master to catch a pheasant and come back!

After the noodles were cooked, Dongfang Lingwu and a few people came over. "Senior sister, Ling Wu, Yun'er, you sit down, you can eat in a while." Dongfang Du stood by the stove and said to a few people.

"You're here." Wu Yazi stroked his beard and said to a few people with a smile.

"Du, this is the first time I've eaten something you made with your own hands." Dongfang Lingwu said with a smile, his face full of happiness. However, this happy smile only lasted until Dongfang Du served the noodles on the table.

Several people sat around the table, eating noodles with nothing in their hearts, and Dongfang Du and Wuyazi were even more embarrassed to bury their heads in eating noodles, and for a while only the sound of eating noodles remained. At this moment, a loud bang seemed to come from the bottom of the mountain.

Dongfang Du ran out of the house first, and when he looked up, he saw that the golden fireworks in the sky had not yet dispersed. Several other people also followed out of the house, looking at the sky along the line of sight of Dongfang, only to see faint golden fireworks in the sky.

"Du, is this the arrow you left for Brother Wu?" Dongfang Lingwu looked at the golden fireworks in the sky, and thought that when he left the palace, Dongfang Du left Wu Mingxing's arrows, and asked worriedly. If it was really Wu Mingxing's arrow, I was afraid that it was in distress. I wasn't in danger yet, but I didn't expect the guards to be in distress first.

"Exactly." Dongfang Du frowned, this arrow was left by himself to Wu Mingxing, and it was used to transmit distress signals when he was in distress. Looking at the direction of the fireworks, it should be the bottom of the mountain.

"Could it be that Brother Wu has strayed into the Nine Consecutive Gossip Maze?"

Dongfang Du had an inexplicable panic in his heart, and he always felt that something had happened, "It shouldn't be, there is a boundary monument at the foot of the mountain, and our horses are tied to the foot of the mountain, Brother Wu doesn't dare to enter Wuya Mountain at will." He raised his hand and pressed the abnormally beating heart in his chest, turned his head and said, "I'll go down the mountain and have a look, you guys are waiting for me here." After speaking, without waiting for a few people to answer, he picked up his light work and flew out.

"I'll go and see with Xiaodu." Chu Mi dropped a sentence and followed Dongfang Du closely. Dark Cloud turned his head to look at Dongfang Lingwu and Wuyazi, Dongfang Lingwu frowned and said, "Yun'er, you also go and take a look, if you really encounter any danger, protect it." ”

When going up the mountain, because Dongfang Lingwu does not know martial arts, and in order to see the scenery in the mountain, several people walked up the mountain slowly, and at this time, the three of them, all with martial arts, just want to hurry to the foot of the mountain, a light gong only a quarter of an hour to arrive.

"His Royal Highness the Second Prince" Wu Mingxing saw Dongfangdu, and directly knelt down on one knee to salute, his face was full of sadness, he opened his mouth but did not say the following, as if he was hesitating and entangled.

"Brother Wu, no courtesy?" Dongfang Du helped Wu Mingxing up, and when he left the palace, he said that it was enough to call himself the young master outside, but now he called himself His Royal Highness the Second Prince with a solemn face, if something didn't happen, why would he forget the title. "Did something happen?" The guards were all standing peacefully at the foot of the mountain, and without stepping further, what had happened must have come from the palace, 'What is happening in the palace?' Could it be that the mother ......'s heart panicked even more.

Just as he was thinking about whether something had happened to his mother, he heard Wu Mingxing hesitantly reply: "Return... Back to His Royal Highness the Second Prince, it is the virtuous concubine ......"

"What's wrong with the concubine?" Dongfang Du clenched his hands into fists, pinched his nails into his palms, and then suddenly asked, "What time is the new year today?" "I'm afraid I'll remember the wrong time. Wu Mingxing couldn't react for a while, and was so stunned that he didn't answer.

"Today is the twelfth, the twelfth of November." Chu Mi walked to Dongfang Du's side and held Dongfang Du's wrist, calming Dongfang Du's restless heart a little.

"Twelve, twelve, it's okay, it's not the seventh day of the first month." Dongfang Du lowered his head and muttered, then looked up at Wu Mingxing, "What's wrong with my mother?" ”

"There is news that Concubine Xian Niangniang suddenly fell ill, very sick, His Royal Highness the Second Prince, go back to the palace quickly." As soon as Wu Mingxing received the news from the palace, he thought about going up the mountain to tell Dongfangdu, but as soon as he saw that the boundary monument said that those who trespassed without a cliff would never look back, and saw the horses that were tied up, he didn't dare to enter at will.

"I'll go back to the palace." Turning his head, he saw that Dark Cloud was also coming, "Yun'er, you stay in Wuya Mountain to accompany the imperial sister, and tell her that I and my senior sister will go back to the palace first." After speaking, he looked at Wu Mingxing and said, "Brother Wu, you all stay, stay here, and go back to the palace with the imperial sister." ”

As soon as Dongfang Du finished speaking, Chu Mi had already led Xiao Hei and her horse over. The two turned over and got on the horse, Dongfang Du thought that he wanted to take Dongfang Lingwu to feel the life outside the palace, but he didn't do it, so he said to Dark Cloud: "Yun'er, tell Sister Sù Huang, let her stay outside the palace and have fun for a while, don't rush back to the palace." After a pause, he continued: "Also, don't tell her what happened. ”

Dark Cloud clenched the sword in his hand, glanced at Chu Mi, and nodded towards Dongfang.
