Zhao Fu stood in front of the door, his hand that wanted to push the door was raised and lowered several times, and he more than once lowered his gaze from the door panel to the crystal water droplets on the surface of the peel in the fruit bowl.

I can't describe him and Shi Yiqiu after many years, it's only been a few months, but it's already a matter of things......

In this courtyard, they once talked about cold plums together, cooked hot pot, talked about extraordinary ideals and journeys, and more laughed.

Zhao Fu took a deep breath, and finally knocked politely on the door: "I'm in." ”

"Come in." Inside the house, Shi Yiqiu's subtle voice came.

Zhao Fu pushed open the door, and the room was brightly lit, luxuriously lit with oil lamps and incense candles.

Shi Yiqiu sat in the middle of the room with her legs bent, and the bright light hit her body, still bright, but this time she looked much haggard.

"Condolences." Zhao Fu stepped forward, he didn't know what to say, so he had to put down the fruit plate gently in front of Shi Yiqiu. At the same time, I also saw the porridge bowl that had not been touched in front of the Shiyiqiu seat.

This is Zhao Fu specially brought the chef of Zhao Mansion here to make freshly made fish fillet porridge - Zhao Fu thought that Shi Yiqiu must have no appetite for trekking all the way to Lanting, and at this time, no delicacies from the mountains and seas can be put on the table, it is better than a simple bowl of porridge.

Zhao Fu's favorite food on weekdays is all kinds of porridge, although he also enjoys the pleasure of swallowing meat and drinking, but after all, this is the northwest, and from time to time he has to go out of the jam to drive away the Hu people who are approaching the border, and he is used to seeing the yellow sand with scarlet blood clots in the sky.

The Northwest has never been a gentle place, there are no water towns, and you can't taste the sweet and greasy whitebait tofu. It's just a bitter cold place, but Zhao Fu hopes that the northwest can become gentle. In his spare time, he would try to tinker in the kitchen, and he failed many times, but he always succeeded, relying on the memory of his hometown, he boiled the porridge into bitter medicine countless times, and also boiled the porridge in the casserole into a pot countless times.

Judging from the results, everything was worth it, Zhao Fu's cooking skills were well-known in his circle of acquaintances, and he also officially brought the food culture called "porridge" to the Zhao Mansion in Lanting.

The rice cooked with more water becomes more delicious, and there is a more unique and delicious way to eat it with pickle leftovers.

The chef of the Zhao Mansion may not be able to cook the full banquet of the Manchu and Han Dynasty, but the porridge must be cooked well, and even Xia Yingyang, who is often drunk and unconscious, always likes to sneak in from the back door of the Zhao Mansion to ask for a bowl of vegetable porridge to moisten the intestines and relieve the feeling of alcohol.

Zhao Fu specially asked the cook to make a whole pot of fish fillet porridge to replenish Shi Yiqiu's body, because the last time Shi Yiqiu came with Lin Haoyan, Lan Ting showed his love for this kind of porridge cooked slowly over low heat.

It's just that I didn't expect that Shi Yiqiu didn't move a mouthful.

The pale wooden spoon is deeply sunk in the porridge, and the surface of the porridge bowl has a thin layer of porridge clothes, and the green onions sprinkled to decorate the flavor are also wrapped in it, but the ethereal still can't hide the lush emerald green, and the snow-white fish fillets are hidden in the bowl......

Nice smell.

Meaty.

Shi Yiqiu did not answer, but bowed deeply to Zhao Fu.

Zhao Fu hurriedly stretched out his hand to help Shi Yiqiu up.

For a moment, the two had nothing to say.

After getting close to Shi Yiqiu, Zhao Fu found that she was wearing more colorful makeup than before, and the situation was really not very good, Zhao Fu thought the same thing.

If it weren't for the fact that the woman in front of him was Shi Yiqiu, she wouldn't be able to control this makeup at all, but it was precisely because the person wearing this makeup was Shi Yiqiu that Zhao Fu was even more worried.

Shi Yiqiu has always been naturally beautiful, when did she need to wear such a thick makeup?

"You...... Are you okay? Zhao Fu could only ask like this.

"It's fine." Shi Yiqiu forced a smiling face.

"Aren't you hungry?" Zhao Fu asked.

"Not very hungry." The poem replied in autumn.

The conversation between the two was very unnutritious, indeed because the current situation was too bleak compared to the previous months.

No one would have thought that Lin Haoyan would be assassinated on the throne, as if no one would think that the sun would rise in the west, which is incredible. Lin Haoyan is the most powerful emperor in the history of the empire, and the strength here does not refer to his control over the empire, but his personal strength.

Lin Haoyan was the first person to leave the Night Wolf Force and ascend to the throne, and it was difficult for anyone who knew his identity to associate him with the words assassination to death, because it was impossible. The Empire has always had a tradition of night wolves hunting others, how could there be night wolves being hunted?

But this incident really happened, and the culprit who led to this impossible thing is Shi Yiqiu.

Shi Yiqiu blamed herself for this, but what could she do? She's just a woman, and to put it mildly, she's just a woman who makes a living out of it to please men.

From that well-arranged encounter, no, from the moment she was born, Lin Haoyan was already the pillar of her life, and when Lin Haoyan died, the pillar fell.

"General." After a long time, Shi Yiqiu spoke.

"Please!" Zhao Fu hurriedly responded.

The identities of both of them are expensive because of Lin Haoyan, but at this moment, because of Lin Haoyan's absence, the relationship between the two has been rapidly estranged.

"The little girl has no virtue, tired Your Majesty, causing the empire to fall into the hands of rebellious ministers and thieves, Your Majesty's deathbed preface The general sits in the northwest, expands the territory for thousands of miles, and is the pillar of the empire...... His Majesty treats the general well, and the little girl implores the general to use the elite soldiers in the northwest, the homeland of the Fulan River, Kuang Fu Sheji, and unify the empire ......"

Shi Yiqiu took a deep breath, and finally mustered up the courage to say all the words buried in her heart, and then she bowed deeply, looking like she wouldn't get up if she didn't agree.

Zhao Fu was surprised by Shi Yiqiu's sudden request, he didn't expect that the first person to raise this topic would be Shi Yiqiu, who is gentle and gentle on weekdays, and he didn't expect Shi Yiqiu to say the next words.

"If the general doesn't give up, the little girl is willing to serve the general forever!"

Zhao Fu's half-stretched hand stopped in the air, and he finally knew why Shi Yiqiu was wearing heavy makeup today.

"My sister-in-law said it." A sentence of sister-in-law's title, the relationship between the two is classified as a family, and it is also tantamount to rejecting Shi Yiqiu's bold idea, Zhao Fu understands that Lin Haoyan loves Shi Yiqiu very much, and he sent Shi Yiqiu to this Northwest Lanting, purely out of desperation, not to let Zhao Fu put a hat on him.

Zhao Fu picked up Shi Yiqiu and said: "Brother's revenge, I will definitely avenge it." ”
