Chapter 411: For the Time Being
Chonghua pinched the handkerchief, and his palms were covered with cold sweat.
I'm really afraid of something.
Mu Lao's eyebrows sank: "Don't worry, this is not a hurdle that cannot be overcome." β
Chonghua took a deep breath, that's right, it's not a big deal, as long as the terminal illness is not detected, it can be solved. After all, the tree is dead, and the person is alive, so it's a big deal to take Luo Chen to live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, and whoever of you loves to be the emperor will do it.
The atmosphere in the room was a little depressing, and after a long while, Su Xi said lightly: "This matter should be considered in the long run." β
Although the imperial court and the rivers and lakes do not interfere, they are in chaos right now. If you don't get one move right, the road ahead will be extremely difficult.
Chonghua and Mu Lao naturally knew this truth, and the two of them looked at each other, and they both had plans in their hearts.
"Girl, Hua girl, grandpa's good girl, hurry up, try this again, this is your grandfather and I tried my best to develop it, it must be a hundred times stronger than that old monster." Outside, the jumbo water was elated, from far and near.
"Fart! Just by you, you also want to win over the old man? Wei Fuzi's voice carried a chill from Sensen, and it seemed that he was also approaching this side.
Chonghua was silent, and the two masters who dared to love Fang flicked their sleeves and walked away, not angry at all, but for the next round of competition. With such a good psychological element, should she give it a thumbs up, or should she support her forehead?
I saw that the two old men really rushed in with two more dishes, with a posture of either you die or I die today.
"Grandpa Su, were the two of them like this before?" Chonghua said as he picked up the chopsticks.
Su Xi looked at Chonghua with a sad face, but he had no intention of soothing the face of the two old men. The corners of the mouth are slightly upturned.
"That's true. The two of them have fought since they were teenagers, and most of their lives have passed. It's not big. Su Xi stroked his beard with a smile.
Chonghua sighed and took a bite of food from plate to plate. He lowered his head and ate it.
"When frying duck breasts, first draw lines on the skin, so that the duck fat can seep out, and the skin will be crispy and not so greasy after frying for a while." Chonghua put down his chopsticks, "When making minced shrimp, just use the back of a knife, and beating it into a puree can retain the freshness to the greatest extent than cutting it into a puree." β
Su Xi blinked, thinking that this girl was just dealing with the two old men, but she didn't expect to compare with them seriously. Chonghua took a sip of warm water: "However, if the emperor has to force Brother Chen." Even if we retreat to the mountains and forests, isn't it a foolproof solution? β
Three old men: ...... Girl, don't you think your two windows are switching a little too quickly?
At dinner in the evening, Zuo Jichuan and the others learned the news. When the decree came, the gang was sleeping. Because of the crossing, it is difficult to recover from physical fatigue just by sleeping. Bai Ze focused on helping everyone check whether the use of force when crossing would have a bad impact on the body. Especially for Gu Chengren, the burden on the body of the use of secret techniques across the spatial plane is not a star.
Gu Chengren is also very willing to pretend to be weak, and there are people carrying him wherever he goes, and he is very happy to be idle.
We have to wait for Luo Chen to come back before we can eat together, and we have to pay attention to staying in someone else's house. Chonghua was already preparing for it, waiting for Luo Chen to come back and start the meal.
Several people took advantage of this effort to sit at the dinner table for a small meeting.
"I don't think it's a problem at all. Directly let Grandpa Wei go and kill the emperor. Then it was decided that Luo Chen would be pushed to the top by the industry, and it would be solved in minutes. Cang Qi was the first to raise his hand to speak.
Don't say that he thinks like this, in fact, including the White Tiger Vermilion Bird Xuanwu has this kind of thought. Didn't the emperor have to force Luo Chen, wouldn't it be good to get rid of the emperor directly. It's not my father anyway. It's not a big mistake.
Besides, where is there no blood in the change of throne. Isn't this the kind of plot that the bloody audience watched?
"The abacus is good, why didn't you consider that the emperor may also have a trick." Qinglong despised this group of little kids. As the oldest big brother in the crowd. Qinglong's composure is not something they can match.
Bai Ze, who is also an elder brother, although he is not very old. But thinking is definitely more than a grade higher than Cangqi.
"The most basic condition of being an emperor is not to trust anyone. Whether it's their own staff. Or a secret guard in his hand. No one can be trusted. After all, he is in a high position, where can he not guard against others. Bai Ze gently blew on the hot tea and took a sip.
"You're saying that there is a high probability that the emperor has hidden power in his hands?" The white tiger's eyes are bright, ouch is waiting for this, obediently tie up his hands and catch it without resisting at all. It is to live and die at the last moment that there is a close-up and a high ~ tide.
Qinglong twisted his eyebrows: "I'm more worried about that Yizhu master." β
Master Yizhu was arrested, no, he was invited by Gu Chengren and arranged in the courtyard not far from the first emperors. First, with Qiu Zeyuan, they can suppress him, and secondly, it is convenient to investigate the matter of so many years.
"Don't even think about it, at this time, you still have to see what Luo Chen has planned. After all, we're not here, and even if it's out of personal interest, the most important decision is not something we can make. Zuo Jichuan interrupted everyone's speculation.
Qinglong glanced at him: "Did you just say that you helped out of personal hobby?" β
Zuo Jichuan blinked: "Isn't it okay?" β
The crowd looked at him speechlessly. What words should I use to describe it? Wayward? Look for trouble? Or is it underwhelming?
In fact, if you think about it, the first two words are the real reason for the latter word.
"Young master, just because of a hobby, you brought us all over, is this really good?" Xuanwu had an expression of wanting to cry without tears.
Zuo Jichuan glanced at everyone: "Don't say you're not having fun." β
Everyone choked in unison, touched their consciences, and said...... Happy uncle! Although Lao Tzu is idle in modern times, he may not know when he will have something serious. It's not a young girl, who will be excited because of the crossing. There is no computer, no air conditioning, not even a water heater. People who have been spoiled by technology say that they have traveled to ancient times to live, and they are simply full of food.
The expressions of the crowd were indescribable for a while. There are white, green, and blue ones. Zuo Jichuan swept around silently, could it be that he was really unhappy?
I'm not happy. You ride in his carriage for ten or eight months, you try, and you are not happy.
Chonghua walked in from outside with the maid: "Let's eat first." Don't wait for him. β
Zuo Jichuan sat up straight: "What's wrong?" β
Chonghua's face was slightly gloomy: "He went to the small study to play with himself." β
I thought that Luo Chen was detained in the palace by the emperor, but I didn't expect that people would not only come back. I also played autism. By the way, you don't really plan to arrest the Juggernaut, do you? Boy, have you lent out all your brains? I know on my toes that this is not realistic at all.
The maids serve the dishes, and the white rice exudes an enticing fragrance. Today's dishes are exceptionally varied, and just looking at them makes people feel appetizing.
Suzaku pursed his lips and smiled: "It's almost time for the New Year's banquet." If the emperor had known, he might have thought that we would be elated to receive the holy decree. β
Chonghua picked up the rice bowl: "Eat, these are the products of today's old men's struggles." β
Everyone looked at Chonghua silently, could it be that these are the failed works of Wei Fuzi and Hua Jinshui's personal confrontation?
The white tiger suddenly collapsed: "Sister, it's not such a way to live." β
The cooking itself is unreliable. Maybe the two old men are still looking for the skills that the cook has learned. Everyone knows that when you first learn to cook, you may have a handful of salt, and the taste of a handful of salt or a handful of less is simply incalculable.
At this time, it is served to everyone to eat...... Chonghua: You actually want everyone to get food poisoning, right?
"Don't worry, I've tried every dish. I really couldn't eat it, and I didn't serve it. "Chonghua has already buried his head in eating.
Only when you have enough food can you have the strength to fight. to have a flexible brain. Why is it said that the body is the capital of leather ~ life, and people can only meet the blood supply of the whole body when they are full. Only when the brain is bright can the body be strong. Hungry is not only difficult to control, but also in a trance.
Zuo Jichuan took a few bites and found that although this dish was not as delicate as Cheng dΓΉ, it was considered good at home.
"By the way, did you quarrel with Luo Chen?"
Chonghua chopsticks paused and nodded: "I've quarreled, I'm going to cut off food for him today." β
Everyone's chopsticks were all in unison. It's really to provoke no one, don't provoke women. Come up and be ruthless. Your husband may need to be comforted by gentle words at this time, you are good, not only quarrel with him, but also starve him. This really has an impact on the relationship between husband and wife.
Zuo Jichuan swallowed: "That, let him eat or let him eat." When you are hungry, you are prone to irritability. β
Just finished speaking. The maid outside ran in.
"Niangniang, Your Highness smashed all the furnishings in the small study."
Zuo Jichuan wiped his sweat, look. Really grumpy.
Chonghua twisted his eyebrows and gritted his teeth: "Let people go to the backyard and bring all the firewood." The axe was prepared for him. β
"What if he doesn't chop wood and cut people!" Cang Qi hurriedly stopped the obedient maid who was going to the backyard to carry firewood.
Chonghua snorted coldly: "Isn't there no place to use the strength, chopping wood." The best. If you sweat a little, you won't have so much mental pressure, and you'll talk about it when he's tired. β
No one at the table spoke up, after all, this kind of thing is between husband and wife, and it is inconvenient for them to intervene. But if Luo Chen is really allowed to chop wood, although it will not kill anyone, the situation will not be too optimistic.
was hesitating, only to see Luo Chen change into his homely wide-sleeved robe and walk in. His hair was still a little wet, obviously he had just taken a shower.
Ignoring everyone's stunned, Luo Chen walked to Chonghua with a cold face and sat down, calmly asking the maid to serve him food.
Chonghua didn't speak, as if Luo Chen wasn't there at all, chewing slowly.
The atmosphere in the room was tense, and after a while, Zuo Jichuan breathed a deep sigh of relief. It's amazing, this kind of cold violence that can kill people invisibly is really rare in modern times.
"Well, after eating, let's go to the backyard." Gu Chengren took the lead in eating, holding the bamboo shoot soup and drinking it one bite at a time.
The crowd looked at him, waiting for him to explain why.
Gu Chengren raised his head and drank the last mouthful of soup, put down the bowl and wiped the corners of his mouth with a silk handkerchief, and smiled slightly: "The first emperors had organ failure, and it is estimated that they will not live long." β
"They...... Not a soul state? Xuanwu asked confusedly.
Gu Chengren scratched his head and smiled: "Temporary resurrection, temporary resurrection." β
"! Resurrection?! Bai Ze slapped the table and stood up suddenly. This is medically impossible. Can Onmyoji resurrect humans? If this skill is known, it will not start a world war?
"Makoto, are you really resurrecting them? Isn't it impossible to resurrect such a thing? Zuo Jichuan's cold sweat also came down. This can be big or small, and one carelessness will cause an uproar.
Gu Chengren understood their concerns and waved his hand: "Thinking too much, it's just to let their souls temporarily return to their own bodies." Isn't it because their bodies are intact? Otherwise, where is it so smooth. β
And there's another reason for that, it's a completely empty world. It's Chonghua's dream. So, here, there are some things that can actually be done.
After calming down for a while, everyone understood this truth.
When dreaming, anything can come true.
Chonghua was stunned for a moment, only to realize that eighty percent of this world really has nothing to do with modern times. Is the previous map of the Central Plains a coincidence?
"Are they going to explain what happened?" Cang Qi asked.
Gu Chengren slowly stood up and tightened the shawl on his body: "I don't know about this, go over first, and then talk." β
Everyone nodded and continued to eat with their heads bowed.
Chonghua glanced at Luo Chen, but Luo Chen had no expression.
It was as if the Emperor's decree was nothing more than a blank slate, as if the quarrel had never happened.
Yes, he will insist on something that she can understand and empathize with. After all, her parents are there, and there are no ups and downs in life. There is no need to consider the inheritance of family property, and there are no siblings to fight for or share. None of this can be understood by her, who has been living a comfortable life.
Therefore, when he was faced with the idea of "can't I be provoked and can't hide", he refused.
He will not choose to escape, because he can't escape for a while. There will always be a day when he needs to take responsibility and shoulder the responsibility.
Chonghua's hand holding the chopsticks tightened slightly, and she couldn't help at all at this time. The heroines in the novel are full of scheming, and she, except for watching, can't do anything.
Unwilling, for the first time in my life, I felt such unwillingness.
Suddenly, there was an extra shrimp ball in the bowl. Chonghua looked up suddenly, only to see Luo Chen bowing his head to eat, as if the shrimp balls had come to her bowl by himself. (To be continued......)
