Chapter 61
When the lion king took the princess to the palace in the middle of Kunshan, the palace had been cleaned up a few times, but even so, the palace that had been half buried in muddy water on the mountain still shocked the eyes of the lion princess.
Yoo Jung-gil thinks she still wants to be a bitter flower.
"Bear with me, don't cry." The man who was holding her patted her on the waist.
Liu Zhenji took several deep breaths and pointed to the top of the palace that was still half complete, "Brother Lion King, I bet with you, it will definitely leak rain!" β
"Hmm." The Lion King nodded calmly, and asked the little fruit man sideways, "How many years have you not been here?" β
"The ancestor of the emperor spent the summer in Kunshan for three years in Yongping, and the thousand Buddha walls built by the ancestors are still on the mountain." The little fruit smiled pleasantly.
Zhou Rongjun calculated and said to the princess, "I haven't been here for forty years, and it's not too shabby." β
"Not really." Anyway, it's all close at hand, this is where they will live in the future, and it doesn't help to say it's tattered, so Yoo Jung-gil decided that it was better to accept the facts.
That night, Liu Zhenji slept on a bed with a wooden board as a mattress, covered with a brocade quilt, and her head was covered with stars, chattering with the person holding her next to her, "Brother Lion King, there are several rooms without loopholes, why don't we sleep there?" β
What if it rains in the middle of the night and they don't have time to wake up and get wet?
"Don't you think the stars are bright?" Zhou Rongjun pointed to the sky.
Liu Zhenji raised his head, and then said to Zhou Rongjun in frustration, "I only heard the roar of wild beasts in the forest, Brother Lion King, I think they are complaining that we have robbed them of their territory." β
Everywhere there was a louder whine, and it was heard that there were wolves, wild boars, and roe deer pheasants......
Zhou Rongjun laughed, "Ignore them, they will slaughter them." β
"It also saves money on meat." Yoo Jung-gil agreed.
Zhou Rongjun laughed a few times, and after a while, he whispered in her ear, "Can't sleep?" β
"Listen to it again, and when you get used to it, you can sleep." After a few days of hurrying, Liu Zhenji has actually been constantly adapting, these days are extremely tired, to the place, the place is even dirty and broken like a beggar's nest, and now the roar of a group of beasts like a dead mother outside is endless, and the fire around the palace is burning all over the sky to drive away the beasts, she is indeed a little sleepless.
"Was it the same when you were outside Beijing?" Yoo Jung-gil asked someone who had always been quite calm.
"Well, almost," Zhou Rongjun hugged the warm delicate body in his arms, and said lightly, "It was winter when I just went to the northwest, and I took a flying boat and they went to the border for three thousand miles, and most of them slept in the wild." β
He went to the Northwest when he was fifteen years old.
Liu Zhenji remembered that when she heard that he was going to leave Beijing, she loved to bully her and was leaving, and she woke up in the middle of the night with a smile for several nights, and then quietly enjoyed a while before she slept again contentedly.
Now that she thinks about it, she can only be ashamed.
"I'm going to go around the mountains tomorrow," Zhou Rongjun lowered his head, lifted her buried head, and said to her, "I will come back late, you take your maids to do what you have to do." β
"I know it."
"I'll eat rough these days, bear with it.
"It's fine."
"The main hall will be repaired in a few days, and we will be able to move in in a few days." Zhou Rongjun has been taking her to adapt to the environment without a trace for the past few days, she is not picky, but fortunately, she can bear it.
That's enough for him.
She doesn't like it anymore, but as long as she stays calm like she stayed in the Liu family.
"Hmm." Yoo Jung-gil actually wants to do more, but in fact, she can do very little.
She couldn't climb up the house to build holes, she couldn't dig up mud to paint the walls, and she couldn't clean the house with a broomβshe could do what she did in a day, and the guards below could do it in an hour.
Even Xingyu and them, because they have been staying in the boudoir with her like half a young lady, they have been doing things in the past few days, and they are a little in the way and causing trouble.
This kind of thing, the days are short, but if they are long, they will be annoying.
Liu Zhenji also thought that tomorrow she had to talk to the girls and do what she could.
**
Early in the morning, Zhou Rongjun left, and when he left, he got Liu Zhenji, and Liu Zhenji didn't get up from the quilt until the sun made his face hurt.
It was a sunny day, and the appearance of the big room they stayed in was clearer, and under the window not far from the bed where Yoo Jung-gil slept, several centipede father-in-law came out of the dust, one after another, away from their nests that were sun-scorched to the corners.
Seeing the princess's eyes looking into the corner, they also looked curiously, and then, they threw away the princess's clothes that they had not yet put on, screamed and ran to the door.
"Bugs, bugs, Miss, run!"
Ruhua Ruyu is very conscientious, so scared that she can't even call the princess, but halfway through the run, she still remembers their master, and turns around to pull Liu Zhenji.
Liu Zhenji shook the corners of her mouth, watching the flocks of more than a dozen stout centipedes crawling towards them in a long line, it was really not good to blame the girls for being too timid, she was really afraid to see it, after picking up the clothes and putting them on, she left the house with the flowers and jade.
This is the cleanest room ever.
Liu Zhenji brought her six Yahuan this time, these few slightly squeamish Yahuan, on the way Liyun and Jinghua were still sick with cold, Liu Zhenji couldn't bear them to be tired and aggravate their condition, so she let them rest, she took Xingyu, Shuiyue and Ruhua Ruyu They went to find Xiaoguo and asked where the kitchen was.
The kitchen is still building a stove, and when the stove is dry and ready to use, it will take at least half a month, and this half a month, they still have to build an earthen stove outside to cook.
Liu Zhenji took the maids to try to lift the big iron pot they used to cook porridge and soup, the bulky big iron pot is about 20 kilograms, and the single pot can be lifted by two people, but if they cook and eat and then lift it down, they can't do it......
Yoo Jung-gil watched her maids help make breakfast, and when she saw that she had done more to make trouble than help, she beckoned them back.
When Xiaoguozi came back from a busy circle, she saw their princess standing in a hidden corner with her maid ring, watching the guards come and go......
Xiaoguozi was amused, leaned over to salute her, and said to her, "If not, the little one will find you a shady place, set the chess table for you, and you will sit and have tea for a while?" β
"What is it?" Liu Zhenji shook his head no, thought about it, and said to him, "You are busy with your going, I won't mess around, don't worry." β
Xiaoguozi was stunned for a moment, then nodded, and smiled warmly, "Eh, the slave maid knows what to do, you should be careful, just call the slave maid if you have something." β
Liu Zhenji nodded at him, and after he left, she said to the maids, "Do something that doesn't cause trouble and can help, go wash the meat you killed last night, cut it into thin slices, sprinkle it with salt and roast it, and eat this at noon." β
After all, it is simple for men to eat, either roasted whole or roasted whole legs, and the roasted meat has to be pasted with a layer on the outside, which is not unpalatable, but it is not delicious.
"Yes." Xingyu replied, and said, "In this weather, drinking raw water is afraid of stomach trouble, Niangniang, do you want to boil more boiling water and prepare it in the pot?" β
"Niangniang," Ruhua also leaned over and whispered, "I know that there are several kinds of wild vegetables that can be eaten, and I went out to see them in the morning, and these wild vegetables are boiled in broth, and they are delicious." β
"I'll know, too." Ruyu also nodded.
Compared with Liu Zhenji, her maids also reacted quickly, and after a while, they tried not to cause trouble to others.
Liu Zhenji went back to the house, packed up the books and weapons that Zhou Rongjun brought over, and found something to do for himself.
**
June 27th, the Great Heat.
This day is Zhou Rongjun's birthday, and it is only eight days away from Emperor Zhou Wen's birthday.
Yesterday afternoon, Liu Zhenji mashed the leftover rice she brought, and she got up early in the morning, only slower than her father-in-law, who got up and went out in the early morning, she went to the kitchen to melt the remaining milk fruit, carefully made milk cake and steamed it, fried a few wild eggs, and packed the cup of chicken soup that was boiled in the middle of the night, as early as the birthday of her lion king.
Because these things have not yet arrived in Kunshan, she can't make noodles even if she has the skills, and she can't make longevity noodles.
Zhou Rongjun also didn't seem to remember his own birthday, he disappeared early in the morning, Liu Zhenji made something to eat, and had to ask Xiaoguozi to find someone and take things away.
In the past few days, some people have come in Kunshan one after another, but they don't stay in Nanshan, which is the palace, and it seems that they are active in the area of Dongshan.
Even the guards in the cultivation palace are done for the day, except for those on duty, the rest are also over there.
Xiao Guozi looked at the lion-shaped milk cake in the food box, looked at the vivid and mighty lion for a long time, and then "hey", and suddenly remembered what day this day made her so bothered, and Liu Zhenji smiled bitterly, "You still remember." β
"Send it to you." Liu Zhenji smiled, raised his hand and asked him to leave quickly, "Hurry up, it's cold in the mountains, and the pastries are not delicious when they're cold." β
"Huh." Xiaoguozi didn't send anyone, he carried the food box by himself, and carefully ran all the way to Dongshan to find someone.
The lion king was talking to his two staff members about the Northwest Yuan people who were going to cross the border to grab cattle and sheep in winter, and he didn't raise his eyes when he heard that the princess was sending something.
She sends it every day, and he will use it when he finishes speaking.
But this time the person who came to send it was a small fruit, and when he saw him talking about something, he didn't interject, but silently opened the food box and opened the lion milk cake that was protected below. β
As soon as I looked at the carving, I knew that it was not from the hands of ordinary craftsmen.
Zhou Rongjun was stunned, and the two staff members who were talking also stopped.
Seeing that the prince of his family was thinking, Xiao Guozi reminded, "Lord, today is your birthday, have you forgotten?" β
Zhou Rongjun smiled, raised his hand and picked up the piece of jade, touched it twice in his hand, put it in his purse, and asked Xiaoguozi, "What did she say?" β
"Say it's cool in the mountains, let the slaves and maids run faster, don't be cold and eat."
Zhou Rongjun stretched out his hand, took the spoon, used some warm milk cake, got up and carried the food box to the side to eat, halfway through, he reached out to the side to search, found a piece of wood of the right size, pulled out a sharp knife, and carved the wood in his hand while eating.
After a while, he finished his breakfast, carved a few more strokes, and gave the wooden man to the little fruit, "Go and get it to her." β
"Huh." Xiaoguozi smiled and took the little princess of wood, lifted the clean food box, and went back to receive the reward.
The author has something to say: the second more.
