Chapter 294: The Claws in Zhao Bottle's Heart.

Thank you for the support of the girls, Erjin is cheeky to ask for a monthly pass...... Come on, come on, the girl with the ticket put it in the bowl!

Uh-uh, a new environment, to be straightened out, it's fine.

------Off topic------

Especially on the seventh day of the summer month, when he opened the food box, put the dumplings in the bowl, and brought them to Hasar...... Smelling the scent, the paws in his heart were about to stick out of his throat.

But His Royal Highness the King of Jin, who was left out in the cold on the side, had a face as black as pot powder.

The daughter is so well-behaved, the mother is naturally happy to laugh.

followed Xia Chuqi all day long, and the little girl even learned to be "handsome".

Xiao Baoyin didn't seem to understand, her little head was crooked, as if she was deliberately angry with her father, she didn't look at him, but called Hasar very sweetly, "Hello cousin, cousin...... You're so handsome! ”

Pulling out Li Miao, he gave Hasar a benefit, and then pulled Xiao Baoyin's hand again, and said enthusiastically, "Baoyin, this is your cousin!" Hurry up and call someone? ”

"Look at what you said? It's all your own family, so why bother talking about two families? Xia Chuqi bowed generously to him, and then didn't look at Zhao Zhu's face, and directly put the food box containing dumplings on Hasar's desk, and said with a smile: "I've been thinking about you for a long time, but I knew that you were here, so I did it specially...... Should I borrow my cousin to entertain you? ”

"My cousin has a heart, I haven't seen you for a long time, and I haven't brought any gifts, I'm really ashamed."

His originally tense and indifferent face instantly turned into thousands of graces.

Sure enough, as soon as the "cousin-in-law" came out, he made Hasar laugh.

Hasar's position in Beidi is no longer the same as two years ago, and now that Zhao Zun is under attack, if she can win over the relationship with Hassar, it can also temporarily ease the tension between Beidi and Zhao Tuo. On the other hand, this sentence can also find a relatively reasonable step for her "self-inflicted amorous", so as not to lose her last trace of dignity after Zhao Zhu's indifference.

A cousin-in-law, she shouted very sweetly, and it was also carefully considered.

"I heard that my cousin-in-law was in Gacha today, so I specially dug up some fresh wild vegetables and mushrooms by the river, made some dumplings and sent them over, so that my cousin-in-law could try them."

Xia Chuqi's body stiffened, glanced at Hasar sitting beside him, and smiled.

Zhao Zhu's eyes looked at him coldly, his face was gloomy, and his emotions were difficult to distinguish.

"Something?"

In the end, it is the treatment of the prince, even in Yinshan, a place where birds don't, no one will treat Zhao Zhu slowly, and there are people in the felt tent with a fan, which is no better than the summer outside. I don't know if the air conditioning on the person sitting on the main seat is too heavy, or if the refrigerated ice cubes on the case can really play such a big role...... At the beginning of the summer, as soon as he entered the account, he sneezed coldly.

"Jiayi, let her in."

As soon as his voice fell, at this time, Zhao Zhu's voice could not distinguish his emotions from the tent.

"Can't let it." Jia Yi stiffened, and was stunned like a wall, "The princess doesn't want to embarrass her subordinates......"

"Get out of the way!" At the beginning of summer, the seven eyebrows were raised, and the voice was fierce.

"Princess......" A was pushed back two steps, and went up to block it.

She held Baoyin with one hand, and pushed the other hand directly to Jia Yi's chest, walking neatly and vigorously, the movement and momentum were not like going in to deliver food, but I thought she was going to fight with Zhao Zhu.

"It's not that I don't eat ......" Jia Yiqing coughed, and wanted to explain something, but before he could finish speaking, the corners of Xia Chuqi's lips raised, and he strode up with a cold snort.

"It's a big priority, and you don't even eat?" At the beginning of summer, the curvature of the corners of the seven lips was even larger.

"It's not that I don't see it." Jia Yi seemed to want to comfort her, and hesitated: "Yes, the master does have important things to do. ”

"He doesn't see me?" She asked with a sneer.

Unexpectedly, when A came out after him, he shook his head at her before he spoke.

Under the scorching sun, she stood outside the tent, and the feeling can be imagined.

But she has never liked the Cold War model, and no matter what the outcome is, she must talk to him face to face.

It is said that men in the world change their hearts faster than they change their faces...... Now she's been taught.

If it weren't for Zhao Zhu's instructions, how could Jia Yi be like this?

Such politeness made the seven hearts of the early summer congested.

"Then ...... you wait?"

Catching up with her sneering eyes, Jia's Adam's apple slipped slightly.

Except for His Royal Highness the King of Jin, it was difficult for him to think of anyone else in this world who could cure this aunt.

She raised her voice, but her expression was calm, and there was no obvious displeasure on her face. But Jia Yi has been with her for so long, how can he not understand her temper and temperament? , Salute first and then soldier is the usual principle of Xia Chuqiyi, she looks good at talking, but it is very likely that she will set fire to the felt tent in the next moment.

"You say, I'll bring him food, and I'll bring my daughter with me."

"Princess, this ......" Jia Yi's face once again showed a look of embarrassment.

"Then trouble Boss A, go in and pass it through, okay?"

With a sneer, she couldn't help but clench Baoyin's hand. Probably Baoyin felt A-Niang's emotions, nervously raised her little face, grabbed her hand, and shouted "A-Niang" in a low voice. Xia Chuqi's heart was sour, and he glanced at his daughter soothingly, and then calmly stared at Jiayi's slightly apologetic eyes.

But Xia Chuqi had heard his cold words countless times, but he had never felt so harsh as at this moment.

Jiayi's words are as concise and straightforward as ever, without the slightest euphemism.

"Nope."

"Oh?" Xia Chuqi smiled and looked slightly, "Even me?" ”

"Princess, the lord has instructed that he and Prince Hasar have important matters to discuss, and no one can enter."

"What are you? You're welcome, just go and eat. Pretending not to notice that this was a bowl of closed-door soup, Xia Chuqi smiled on his lips and was about to break into the tent as he spoke. Ke Jia was stunned for a moment, and his arm was horizontal in front of him.

"I ......" Jia's brows furrowed into the word "Chuan", as if he wanted to say something and stopped.

"I'll bring you food! I've left you a portion too, and you'll go there to eat later. ”

With her eyes half-squinted, she smiled slightly and pointed to the food box in Qinglan's hand.

He looked embarrassed and fell into Xia Chuqi's eyes.

"Princessβ€”" another shout came from Jiayi, who was standing at the tent gate.

Xia Chuqi looked around the seventh, smiled and motioned for them to continue, and then went to Zhao Zhu's big tent.

"Hello princess!"

Seeing the seventh day of the summer month passing, the attendants got up one after another.

It was noon, the weather was hot, the herdsmen were eating lunch in their tents, and the retinue of the "caravan" also served their own food on the big stove, or squatted at the door of the tent to blow the cool breeze, or sat on the stone pier at the door to tie their horses to eat on the spot. The luggage back to Peking was packed. But Ming'er was going to leave the camp and return to Beiping early in the morning, but Hasar suddenly led troops into Gacha, and everyone was panicked, and it was inevitable to talk in a whisper during dinner.

She really didn't believe it, Zhao Shijiu's heart was as hard as iron, and she couldn't be coaxed.

Zhuge Liang is such an awesome character, Liu Bei can also ask him to come out of the mountain.

In order not to continue to do the "air" in front of Zhao Shijiu, she spent a whole hour making wild vegetable dumplings and mushroom dumplings with meat filling and vegetarian filling, and sent Zheng Erbao to ask first, I heard that the master was still talking to Prince Hassal in the tent, and he didn't eat, she thought about it, so she used the food box to put the dumplings that had just come out of the pot, took the chopsticks and dipping sauce, and let Qinglan and Zheng Erbao carry them, and she took Xiao Baoyin's hand and went to the account together.

It feels bad to be ignored, but Xia Chuqi is not a person who likes to be ignored for a long time.

No, as wise as he is, it's not that he doesn't check, but deliberately ignores it.

Why could even Baoyin see that she was currying favor with Zhao Shijiu, but he didn't check it himself?

Could it be that even her daughter's suppressed emotions can be seen?

With a tug in her heart, her hand stirring the meat filling paused slightly.

"......" Qinglan pursed her mouth speechlessly, not daring to look at Xia Chuqi's face, only hoping that she didn't see it. But when Xia Chuqi stretched out her head in Baoyin, her attention was all on her daughter, and she naturally saw that sentence.

"Because Daddy is angry with Daddy, Daddy wants to coax Daddy to eat ......" Baoyin hummed, as if she was jealous.

"Why?" Qinglan was slightly stunned, and asked with a smile while rolling out the dumpling skin.

"Aunt Qing, if I don't rob it, A-Niang won't give me food."

But when she finished speaking, Baoyin's little mouth pursed even higher.

Sheets of evenly thick dumpling wrappers slipped out of her hands, and the words in her mouth did not stop.

"Yes, the little county lord has worked hard, let's let the little county lord eat more in a while...... However, this meat filling is still raw, and it has to be wrapped in this dumpling wrapper and cooked in a pot before it can be eaten. Qinglan is a must-have at rolling dumpling skins, so Xia Chuqi handed over this hard work to her in order to make use of her strengths and avoid weaknesses.

This little thing is a pistachio, with her, there is no trouble.

Thinking of the weeds she was sabotaging and pulling, not only did Xia Chuqi almost laugh, but Qinglan, who has always been steady, also burst out laughing.

Hardships? Is it her hard work?

"Woo, it's Baoyin...... ...... of hard work"

"Whew!" Bao Yin frowned, his small mouth flattened, and he retracted his hand aggrieved.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Silly, this can't be eaten. ”

How can a two-year-old girl know how to cook food? She said that she was hungry and knew that the contents of the bowl were for food, so she reached out to grab it, and when Xia Chuqi saw this, she laughed "snort" and slapped the back of her hand.

"Ah Niang......" Baoyin's head stretched over and touched his belly, "I'm hungry." ”

She was not in the mood to eat in the morning, her stomach was already a little hungry, and she couldn't help but swallow her saliva when she looked at the color of the meat and vegetable filling.

At the beginning of the summer, the wild vegetables picked from the river bank were soaked in water for another half an hour, fished out and cleaned, drained and blanched in boiling water, cut into minced vegetables, put them in a bowl, and made out all the seasonings that could be prepared. What minced ginger, salt, rice wine, sauce and minced lamb mix together and stir ...... Wild vegetables and condiments suppress the smell of mutton, and a faint fragrant smell enters the nose.

~

Rufeng was stunned, unable to speak for a long time.

It is impossible for Dongfang Qingxuan to do it to Zhao Zhu. But looking at the determined emotions on his face, it is clearly not like relying on a fake ...... Between the two of them, how could they suddenly hate so deeply?

Rufeng's heart sank, and he gasped.

Three to one?

"No!" Dongfang Qing Xuanfeng's eyes swept and interrupted him with a smile, "The situation of two against one, instead of letting it become two against two, it will become a pot of porridge, and the war will not end after several years, why not fight three against one and solve it quickly?" ”

"The meaning of the Great Khan ......" Rufeng was happy in his heart, with a long-lost smile on his face, "I want to ...... with the King of Jin"

"No, how can Ben Khan sit idly by and watch such a lively situation?"

Dongfang Qingxuan looked at the thin cheeks of the wind, the faint expectation, chuckled, the white right hand slowly raised, stroked the horse's oily and smooth mane, the nail cover was glowing with warm and crystalline color, there was no Kou Dan, but it was more enchanting than the nails of the Kou Dan.

It's a wonderful fantasy.

One south and one north, each ruling one side?

"Yes, from the Khan's point of view, this is naturally the best." Rufeng's eyebrows sank, and he suddenly smiled bitterly, "From the perspective of personal feelings, I naturally hope that the Great Khan can join forces with the King of Jin to help him resolve the crisis, from now on, you and him will be one south and one north, and each will rule one side......"

Dongfang Qingxuan looked at him sideways, his lips curled slightly, "Honestly? ”

He is not good at long speeches, but in order to show his loyalty, he still said it.

"However, the hat of the king of Jin is not for nothing, he has experienced countless crises in his life, and he has not tasted defeat on the battlefield, since he knows that entering the imperial tomb will cause this disaster, he must have a plan...... After all, who can know if he deliberately gave Zhao Mianze an excuse and then had a chance to raise troops? In my opinion, the Great Khan should stand by and watch, preserve his strength, wait for the snipe and mussels to compete, and be a fisherman to profit...... This is also a truth that has not changed through the ages. ”

After a pause, he stared at Dongfang Qingxuan's smiling eyes, and his voice suddenly sank.

"For the sake of safety, Zhao Mianze will definitely contact his ally Beidi, and when the Liaodong expedition division passes Beiping, he will use the matter of the Yinshan Emperor's Mausoleum to challenge the King of Jin. Judging from the general trend, there is Zhao Mianze in the south of Beiping Mansion and Hasar in the north, which is really a critical situation, and this battle will undoubtedly be lost if others are changed. ”

He didn't dare to ask, but he replied more cautiously.

If this question is asked to others, you don't need to think too much, you just need to say it directly. But Dongfang Qingxuan asked Rufeng, so he had to think about it. First, Zhao Bottle was his old master, and second, Dongfang Qingxuan knew that his respect for Zhao Bottle was the same as always. Sanlai came back from the imperial tomb, although Dongfang Qingxuan didn't say anything, but the injuries on his body couldn't deceive people, Rufeng knew that there must have been an unpleasant relationship between him and Zhao Zhu, and it was quite unpleasant.

"In your opinion, in the current chaos, what should I, Wuliang Khan, do?"

With a low sigh, Dongfang Qingxuan touched his swollen cheeks and smiled slightly.

Rufeng hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Beidi naturally knows that Zhao Mianze's withdrawal is in full swing, but there is only one person he really fears. This time Li Liangji's incident in Liaodong happened too suddenly, Zhao Mianze gathered 300,000 Liaodong expeditionary divisions who were going to Li Liangji, and it was clear that they were going to Zhao Zhu. Nanyan was in civil strife, and Beidi couldn't ask for it. If it weren't for the incident of the Yinshan Emperor's Mausoleum, Beidi would have sat on the mountain to watch the tiger fight, waited for the opportunity, and waited for work. But when the matter of the imperial tomb reached Hala and Lin, whether it was for the sake of Beidi's subjects or to block the tongue of the people of the world, Beidi could no longer sit idly by...... The war was inevitable, and the king of Jin was attacked on his back, and the situation was very bad. ”

"What does Beidi mean?"

After a pause, he replied, "Yes." ”

From family affairs to state affairs, from private affairs to official affairs, he changed too fast, like the wind, he almost couldn't keep up with the rhythm.

"Hasar is still in the Zhao Bottle tent?"

He looked at the tall tree on the riverbed, at the birds that flew towards the trees, at Baoyin sneaking over and wanting to slide into the river, at Xia Chuqi taking off her shoes and socks regardless of herself, lifting her skirt to catch people, watching her mother and daughter fight together, and watching them laugh heartlessly...... Slowly raised his hand and rubbed his temples.

Receiving his response, Dongfang Qingxuan's gaze was slightly solemn, but he did not move his gaze.

"......" the corners of Rufeng's lips twitched slightly, and nodded, "Yes." ”

"Such a small child grows the fastest, just like a little piglet, and grows when he sees the wind."

"Yes, Great Khan, the little lord seems to be a little taller."

It's only been a few days since Ergu was separated, and there is such a long distance, where can Xiao Baoyin grow taller, and where can he see that Baoyin has grown taller? Rufeng couldn't understand what it was like for someone who was thinking about him to feel, but he couldn't bear to break his illusions.

Rufeng was slightly stunned, pursed the corners of his lips and looked at him strangely.

Dongfang Qingxuan's gaze was glued to the river, raising his eyebrows for a while, and sinking his eyes for a while, not knowing what he was thinking...... After a long time, he suddenly spoke, "Like the wind, has Baoyin grown taller?" ”

The two men stood quietly for a long time, not moving.

"Alas!" Like the wind, it seems to be a faint sigh.

"Wait."

Dongfang Qingxuan's face was covered with a veil, and only a pair of eyes with a deep smile were revealed, but he couldn't see the emotions on his face clearly.

"Great Khan!" Looking at the man standing in a daze, he stepped forward cautiously like the wind, put his hand on the horse's mane, stroked it, followed his line of sight, looked at the river in the distance, and persuaded him in a low voice: "The sun is big, go back!" ”

The clear river water, the tender white little hands, the green wild vegetables, the Baoyin playing in the water, the anxious Zheng Erbao, the smiling Qinglan, the scenery on the side made Xia Chuqi particularly comfortable, and the picture of her entering the scene together also fell in the eyes of the man on the slope in the distance, turning into a delicate and beautiful landscape painting.

When the sun rose high in the sky, Xia Chuqi looked at the loot in the basket, wiped the sweat on his forehead with his sleeve, made an "OK" gesture, and slowly carried the basket to the river with Qinglan, squatted down, and washed wild vegetables and mushrooms.

In order not to dampen Baoyin's enthusiasm, the wild vegetables she picked were also put into the bamboo basket and let Qinglan conduct a second screening. For a whole morning, the "three women" walked along the riverbed and looked for it, and Zheng Erbao sighed behind his back and wiped his sweat.

Xiao Baoyin came out to play, very excited, looking for wild vegetables is like rolling on the grass, as soon as she doesn't pay attention to her, she rolls on the grass, or casually pulls out a handful of grass, the little mouth excitedly called "A-Niang, A-Niang, I found it", but when I went to see it on the seventh day of the summer month, it was not edible at all, so I could only cry and laugh.

While picking wild vegetables and looking for mushrooms, she planned her lunch.

On the grassland, there is no one to meet, and it is empty and remote.

She believes that this kind of unpolluted, pure natural wild mushrooms will taste more delicious than those artificially cultivated mushrooms she will eat in later generations, whether it is boiled in soup or chopped dumplings, the taste can be good.

In this season, the climate in the Yinshan area is hot, the rain is also extremely abundant, and a field of bright green wild plants looks enchanting and pleasant. Xia Chuqi is a descendant of ancient medicine, and his recognition of herbs is better than others, and the same is true for wild vegetables. There are many plants that can be used in medicine, and in fact, they can all be eaten. She was especially pleased that there were edible mushrooms in the damp grass above the riverbed.

But she didn't want to ask much about her master's affairs, so she could only follow silently...... Pick wild vegetables together.

She couldn't understand, she couldn't even believe it.

From Chen Jing, she can get first-hand information. Zhao Zhu didn't go back to the tent last night, but slept alone in the big chair in the big tent. They all know that the lord has always spoiled the princess, spoiled to the bones, the tip of the heart, and has been spoiled for so many years, no matter how big the storm is, the two of them have broken through, and they have never seen them blush, this time out of the imperial tomb, why did it become so strange?

"Oh", Qinglan realized, but she couldn't help sighing in her heart.

Now he has to solve all the complicated things alone, and as his woman, what she can do now is to prepare a table of good dishes for him.

She knew that Zhao Zhu was really busy.

Due to geographical reasons, the steppe people only focus on animal husbandry and almost no farming. As a result, vegetables are rarely found on the herders' tables. After being in Gacha Village for so long, there are only a handful of vegetables that they can eat in the Nanyan "caravan" on the seventh day of the summer month.

"By the way, come and find some wild vegetables, and go back to make wild vegetable dumplings for Baoyin and Ye."

Xia Chuqi stretched his waist, took a deep breath of completely pollution-free fresh air, and smiled softly.

"Walking a horse?" Qinglan frowned slightly, "Running so far...... Just for horse walking? ”

Xia Chuqi pinched Baoyin's face and replied with a smile, "Walk the horse." ”

"Princess, what are we doing here?" Qinglan walked over, took Xiao Baoyin off the horse's back on tiptoe, followed the line of sight of Xia Chuqi, looked at the quietly flowing river not far away, and the tender green color on the riverbed, and asked for some reason.

"That's it."

The atmosphere was strange, and after about half a cup of tea, the seventh party led the horse to stop at the beginning of summer.

In addition to Xiao Baoyin's twitter, Qinglan and Zheng Erbao also had less to say.

Along the way, Xia Chuqi was silent.

After getting the latest news from Hu Helu, Xia Chuqi knew that Hasar and Zhao Tuo were discussing in the tent, so he didn't bother. Bidding farewell to Hu Helu, she took out her mount from the stable, threw Xiao Baoyin on the horse, and took Zheng Erbao, who had to follow Qinglan all the time, out of the village in a mighty way.
