When he returned to the palace all the way, Xiao Luzi would involuntarily think of Qian Baihan's calm eyes just now.

Although his face is pale and weak, he still gives people a sense of tenacity.

When he arrived at the door of Shang Shufang, Xiao Luzi sorted out his mind and stepped into the main hall, Zhou Qingwu sat behind the table, and said without raising his head: "Are you back?" ”

Xiao Luzi answered, and took a few steps to the front and called Qian'er, "If you go back to Your Majesty, the slave is back." ”

Zhou Qingwu approved the fold in his hand, then raised his head and glanced at him and said, "This time, what did you bring back?" ”

Xiao Luzi paused for a moment, and then immediately put the oil paper bag in his hand to Zhou Qingwu with both hands, "Your Majesty, when the slave was leaving, it was just in time for someone to send pastries over, and the slave couldn't refuse, so he tasted a piece, and seeing that the slave liked it, General Qian and Qian ordered someone to wrap some for the slave to bring back." ”

Zhou Qingwu glanced at the oily paper bag and asked lightly to Xiao Luzi, "Oh?" So what can Qian Baihan say? ”

Xiao Luzi thought that Zhou Qingwu was asking what Qian Baihan said at the end, so he replied directly: "General Qian said that he is no longer a general now, and it is not considered a bribe, so the slave can rest assured that he will accept it." ”

"I asked you, you said that Yang Yuecheng is now a general, did Qian Baihan say anything to you?"

Xiao Luzi said 'ah', and then he reacted and said, "The slave should die!" General Qian praised General Yang for his young and promising family background, and he was not as good as General Yang. When the slave heard this, he praised General Qian for his broad-mindedness, but he didn't think that General Qian said that His Majesty's will must have His Majesty's reason, and he was a minister, so he naturally had to start from His Majesty's point of view, so he had no complaints about His Majesty's will. ”

Xiao Luzi said, already holding the pastry in both hands, waiting for Zhou Qingwu's response.

Zhou Qingwu looked at Xiao Luzi, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, looked at him and said, "Qian Baihan really said that? ”

Xiao Luzi said repeatedly: "Yes, the slave does not dare to deceive Your Majesty, this is indeed General Qian's original words." ”

Zhou Qingwu nodded with satisfaction, sure enough, this Qian Baihan is more than others on the road, and he is also much more heartfelt.

If you only have your own rights and positions in your eyes, then what do you want him to do as an emperor?

Is it just to support these people?

"Since Qian Baihan gave you pastries, then open it and try it with me!"

When Xiao Luzi heard Qian Baihan say this, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, came to Zhou Qingwu with a smile on his face, and untied the rope on the paper bag on the table, "Your Majesty, it's been very hot recently, and this mung bean cake is the best way to relieve the heat, you can taste it." ”

As soon as the paper bag was opened, Zhou Qingwu smelled a fresh fragrance, not only that, but the carefully carved patterns on it looked like a lot of effort had been put into it.

He reached out and took a piece and put it in his mouth, this mung bean cake is sweet but not greasy, and it also has the original fragrance of mung beans, which is very refreshing.

"I didn't expect that there would be such a good cook in Qian Baihan's Mansion to make such good pastries." Zhou Qingwu ate a piece, wiped his hands with a handkerchief, and praised it.

Xiao Luzi saw that Zhou Qingwu liked it very much, so he took over the conversation and said: "Your Majesty's liking is the blessing of this pastry, but this is not made by the cook in General Qian's mansion, it is made by General Qian's sister." ”

Zhou Qingwu turned his head suspiciously, glanced at Xiao Luzi and asked, "Qian Baihan still has a sister?" How come I don't know? ”

Xiao Luzi explained with a smile: "Your Majesty forgot, Your Majesty told the slave about this, a few months ago, a distant sister of General Qian's family suffered a disaster and lived in General Qian's mansion. When the slave was about to leave today, it was just in time for her to send someone to bring the pastry, and the slave was lucky enough to taste a piece. ”

Zhou Qingwu thought about it for a while, and seemed to have some impressions, he looked at the mung bean cake on the table, and suddenly said: "I don't know what kind of wonderful person is to be able to make such a delicate pastry?" ”

No wonder he took the pastries to Xiao Luzi, presumably Qian Baihan also had the idea of sending the beauty into the palace.

But the pastry was really good, and it suited his appetite very well.

Xiao Luzi originally wanted to use this mung bean cake to please Zhou Qingwu, but when he heard Zhou Qingwu's words, he knew that Zhou Qingwu's drunkard did not mean to drink, "I didn't hear anyone say anything, but before General Qian was injured, he had found two relatives for her, but I didn't expect that now that General Qian was injured, this marriage was delayed." ”

Zhou Qingwu couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, "Didn't Qian Baihan want to send her into the palace?" ”

This surprised him, just now, he thought that Qian Baihan was going to send a beauty into the palace, just like everyone else.

Unexpectedly, he didn't even think about it.

But this is not bad, it seems that Qian Baihan is a heartfelt person for himself, in the end in this Manchu Dynasty.

Xiao Luzi shook his head when he heard Zhou Qingwu's question, and said to Zhou Qingwu: "General Qian doesn't seem to have this intention, before that woman defected to General Qian, didn't Your Majesty think about choosing a concubine?" Before and after His Majesty's order, General Qian was thinking about finding a good family for this woman. ”

It is not difficult to inquire about these things, at that time, Qian Baihan was still in the court every day, and his sister's marriage was a major event, so naturally some people in the court wanted to climb to Qian Baihan's in-laws.

Zhou Qingwu also understood this truth, so he didn't ask Xiao Luzi much, but in this way, he was more interested in Qian Baihan's distant sister.

"What is the name of Qian Baihan's distant cousin? Do you remember? Zhou Qingwu looked at Xiao Luzi and asked.

Xiao Luzi thought for a while, and finally remembered: "The slave remembers, it's called Xia Chuli." ”

A smile rose at the corner of Zhou Qingwu's mouth, and he instructed Xiao Luzi: "You go to my private warehouse and send that glass lantern to Qian Baihan's mansion, and say that I tasted the mung bean cake made by Xia Chuli, and I like it very much, so I specially rewarded it to her, and asked her to come out to receive the reward in person." ”

In this way, Xiao Luzi will be able to see the woman's face clearly, and if she looks like no salt, she will just have less effort.

Xiao Luzi replied: "Yes, the slave will do it immediately." ”

When he came out of the Shang study, Xiao Luzi was still a little surprised in his eyes, but he didn't expect that a few pieces of mung bean cake would attract His Majesty's attention by mistake, not to mention, but also in exchange for a glass lantern.

There are only six glazed lanterns in total, and there is nowhere else except in Zhang Ruolan's Qinyang Palace.

This time, the early summer Li was lucky.
