Cheng Chumo could only sigh that the princess's focus was really strange, and finally agreed in the bargain that the princess would give her two bottles of lightly scented perfume in the future.

The previous thing was just written off.

The coldness between the two also thawed instantly, and Li Lizhi carefully put away the perfume.

Curiously looked at Cheng Chumo and asked.

"Hey!"

"You just said that you want to explain to me how you make ice, hurry up!"

Li Lizhi leaned on the table and asked silently close to Cheng.

"Tell me about it!"

"Okay."

Cheng Chu nodded helplessly, and had to patiently explain in detail to Li Lizhi the principle of making the ice cubes just now.

After a long time......

"What?"

"Saltpeter can absorb the heat in the water when it encounters clean water?"

"There is no heat in the water, how can it be absorbed?"

When Li Lizhen listened to Cheng Chumo's explanation, such a question arose.

“……”

Cheng Chumo rubbed his forehead.

"I've told you 800 times, the temperature of the water is already very low, and after absorbing some temperature, it becomes ice!"

"Do you understand?"

"You're murdering me!"

Li Lizhen did not answer, but looked at Cheng Chu aggrievedly and said silently.

"I ......"

"Then I'll explain it to you again!"

……

Until Xiaoyu led the palace maid who served the food into the main hall, Cheng Chumo had not explained to Li Lizhi why the already cold water could lose heat again, but Li Lizhi still let go of Cheng Chumo, who was about to collapse, after seeing the food.

"Eat."

Li Lizhi looked arrogant.

Pointing to the pots of 'exquisite' dishes in front of him, and the steaming mutton soup, he said with a silent smile to Cheng Chu.

"This is the food I specifically told the imperial dining room to clean up."

"Don't look at the meat, it's all common mutton, but after I improved the cooking technique, it has a different flavor."

"Dogwood, you know, right?"

Cheng Chu was stunned for a moment, and then nodded with a strange expression.

"Learn a little about ......"

"Yo?"

Li Lizhen's eyes lit up.

"You scumbag, do you still have a little research?"

"These dishes are all seasoned with dogwood, and they have a unique flavor!"

"Try it!"

"Where can anyone else eat this?"

“……”

Cheng Chumo nodded, and it was not easy to disturb Li Li's Yaxing, so he picked up the chopsticks and tasted them one by one.

When you eat lamb in a basin......

"Hmm!"

Cheng Chumo's eyes lit up slightly.

Spicy in the mouth!

Sweet aftertaste!

Li Lizhi herself said that she only added a flavor of dogwood to the condiment, but the spicy taste of dogwood suddenly stimulated the pure fragrance of the meat more fiercely!

In particular, the lamb with a tender and milky flavor melts in your mouth after a long time of stewing.

The taste of the ingredients is unique......

Just at the moment of entrance, Cheng Chumo's taste buds were opened!

"Ha ......"

A mouthful of hot air came out of Cheng Chumo's mouth.

Satisfaction that has never been felt before fills the body.

Cheng Chumo was also a Guanzhong person in his previous life, and he had a special feeling for mutton in the water basin, but whether it was in his past life or in his present life, this meal of mutton in the water basin was the most authentic.

Cheng Chumo said......

He was satisfied!

The meal ended quickly in a harmonious atmosphere of the guests and hosts.

Cheng Chumo stroked his stomach with satisfaction, and while promising Li Lizhi to invite him to eat authentic barbecue in two days, he walked out of the hall side by side with Li Lizhen.

He was followed by a small fish.

……

In addition to the four huge halls, there is also a square dedicated to banquets, and a small lake that flows with the moat all year round.

Boating is available on the lake.

In summer, lotus flowers and lotus leaves are the most beautiful scenery here.

"Hey."

Cheng Chumo glanced at Li Lizhi beside him, as well as the four guards who followed not far away.

"We'll be followed by your maids and guards."

"Ahh

Li Lizhi nodded slightly.

"I know, what's wrong?"

"The ......"

Cheng Chumo was a little anxious.

"We're dating, and you don't understand that...... What's that called, forget it! ”

Cheng Chu scratched his head silently.

"We're in a private space."

"Can you tell these people who are okay to leave?"

"Why let them go?"

Li Lizhi was even more confused.

"Why are there so many?"

Cheng Chumo was anxious.

"This is a separate space for the two of us, isn't what we are going to say or do in their line of sight?"

"How bad is that!"

"What's so bad about that?"

“……”

"Okay!"

Cheng Chumo was speechless for a while, it seemed that it was impossible for Li Lizhen to get Xiaoyu and a few guards away, so let them follow him quietly.

It's a big deal that you speak in a smaller voice.

He wondered.

This is the Taiye Pool in the Imperial Palace, and the Zuowu Guards are stationed in the garrison, how can it be dangerous?

The two of them walked slowly on the grass by the lake without saying a word for a while, and Li Lizhi was a little reserved and didn't know what to say.

And Cheng Chumo was distracted by the crowd following closely behind.

……

"Huh."

Just when Cheng was bored and turned his head to look at the water.

Clusters of dark shadows emerged from the shadowy willow trees.

Slightly stunned.

"Princess."

Cheng Chumo asked in a low voice.

"Is the cleaning of this Taiye Pond river all done at night?"

"No, it's not."

Li Li shook her head without thinking.

"There is a fixed time for cleaning the water in the tank, and the cleaning time will be in the early morning, not at night."

"What's wrong?"

"Something is wrong......"

After listening to Li Lizhi's explanation, Cheng Chumo's eyebrows twisted.

In front of Li Lizhen, he stretched out his hand and pointed to several slender black shadows on the surface of the lake, which were sliding smoothly in the water, floating towards them from far and near.

"Take a look."

"Have you seen any of these ships?"

“……”

Li Lizhi was stunned.

"I haven't seen it, I don't usually know how to clean up the river, these boats should probably be, but why are they still floating in the water at this time, it's a bit unreasonable......"

"That's not right!"

Looking at the three Wupeng boats that were about to dock, Cheng Chumo's eyes were round!

"Guard!"

"Guards, come forward, there's an assassin!"

"There are assassins!"

Cheng Chumo shouted loudly, and in a hurry, he directly lazily hugged Li Lizhi and turned his head and ran in the direction of the guard.

And at the moment when the silent shouting sounded at Cheng's place!

There was a dense sound of water hitting the lake, and the strange sound of water-stained shoes touching the grass.

"Protect the princess!"

"Boom!"

The guards who followed Li Lizhi were all elite soldiers in a hundred battles, and they quickly drew their sabers and greeted Cheng Chumo's side.

Sou!

Cold arrows break through the air!

Poof!

Blood splattered!

One of the four guards was killed by a single blow in just one shot!
