Chapter 21 Gossip is commonplace

Shen Yanzhi happily returned home.

The sun sets, the sunset fills the sky, and the house is quiet and serene. From a distance, he saw Li Rongjin. She was standing beside the hibiscus pool, talking to the walnut proudly with a spring breeze, gesturing with her hands as she spoke, and the starlight in her eyes was more dazzling than the sunset in the sky.

Rongjin is wearing a lotus-colored smoke cloud butterfly skirt today, with a snake bun on her head, and the jade butterfly pattern between her temples is shining in the sunset. Looking from afar, it looks like a stunning fairy who captivates the country and the city, light and elegant. Everyone said that the lotus flowers in the sun were different red, and Shen Yanzhi only felt that the hibiscus in the pond were overshadowed in front of Li Rongjin.

Shen Yanzhi gradually approached, "Do you know what happened today?" So happy. ”

Rong Jin is explaining to Walnut about the newly opened shop. Shen Yanzhi's slightly muffled voice suddenly appeared in his ears, startling Rong Jin. She glared at him and said angrily, "Are you a ghost?" I didn't make a sound when I walked, and I was scared to death by you. ”

Shen Yanzhi lowered his head and touched his nose, and muttered in a low voice: "That's not because you don't have me in your heart." ”

Rongjin didn't hear clearly, "What did you say?" ”

The loss in Shen Yanzhi's eyes flashed, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly: "It's nothing." What are you talking about with Walnut, so happy? ”

Rongjin smiled at him mysteriously, "I won't tell you." ”

"Then let me tell you something, do you want to hear it?" Shen Yanzhi's eyebrows raised slightly, pretending to be mysterious.

Rong Jin shook his head decisively, called the walnut and wanted to leave. How could Shen Yanzhi let her get her wish, stretched out his slender arm, pulled her into the water pavilion next to her, turned around and ordered Walnut to prepare tea. Rong Jin added, "Serve those snacks as well." ”

Shen Yanzhi: "In the imperial study today, there is a big incident. ”

Rong Jin asked casually, "What's the matter?" ”

Shen Yanzhi sold it, "Guess what? ”

Rong Jin tilted his head and thought seriously: "You have been promoted?" ”

Shen Yanzhi shook his head.

Rong Jin continued to guess, "Got rich?" ”

Shen Yanzhi still shook his head.

Rong Jin was puzzled and continued: "The emperor gave you a beauty? Now you should have guessed correctly. ”

Shen Yanzhi still shook his head, "What are you thinking about in your little head?" ”

Rong Jinxiu frowned slightly, and said: "That's not what you asked me to guess, the joy of life is nothing more than being promoted to an official and making a fortune, and the beauty is in your arms." ”

Shen Yanzhi was amused by Rong Jin, nodded and smiled: "It seems that there is really some truth." ”

"That's nature, you haven't said what the hell is going on." Rongjin's curiosity was hung up, and his clear eyes were full of curiosity.

"The prince made a fuss in the imperial study today, and was severely reprimanded by the emperor and punished him for thinking about it in his Lingxiao Palace, and he couldn't come out without a will. Although it is only a small punishment, it can be seen that the emperor is already very dissatisfied with the crown prince. ”

At this time, Walnut brought the tea and some delicate snacks, and then withdrew.

Rong Jin took the initiative to push the pastry in front of Shen Yanzhi, "You taste it." ”

Shen Yanzhi was a little flattered, and when he looked at Rongjin again, his eyes flashed with expectation, isn't it... Pastries are poisonous, right?

"What are you doing in a daze, eat quickly!" Rongjin urged.

"I... I'm not hungry! Shen Yanzhi politely refused.

Rongjin: "Not hungry? Didn't you just come back from the palace? Ate in the palace? ”

"Not really..."

"Then eat it!"

Rongjin introduced him one by one, "This is a lotus cake, and the cake is as its name suggests." Like a blooming lotus flower, the white and flawless petals are faintly pink, do you think it is more beautiful than the real flowers in the pool? Two points on Yashang? ”

Shen Yanzhi raised his eyes and saw that Rong Jin was looking at him expectantly, and nodded involuntarily.

"Crispy and sweet in the mouth, it uses puff pastry as the skin, mashes the freshly picked lotus flowers into juice, adds them to the noodles, and adds honey to make the shape of lotus flowers, and deep-fry them in a high-temperature oil pan until crispy. This is the date pastry, and this is the chestnut cake, which is my favorite! The soft and delicate taste of chestnuts and the fragrance of lotus flowers are perfect! Taste it. ”

Shen Yanzhi plucked up his courage, picked up a piece of lotus crisp, and stuffed it all into his mouth in three or two bites.

"That's it?" Rong Jin looked at him stunned.

"I'm done." And choked, Shen Yanzhi took the tea and drank it all.

Rong Jinmei was stunned, "Cow chewing peony!" Forget it, don't eat it, let's go on, where did you just go? ”

Shen Yanzhi was a little innocent, why didn't he let him eat it, so he had to continue: "I just said that the prince was confined in his own palace. ”

"Why? He was found walking around the building? ”

"How can the prince go to the building! His own harem of beauties is like a cloud. And even if the prince walks around the building, it will be done very, very hidden, how can it be so easy to be discovered. Shen Yanzhi patiently explained.

Rong Jin nodded when he heard this, "Makes sense." So was he caught stealing someone? Shen Yanzhi saw that Rong Jin suddenly lowered his voice, looked left and right, and saw that there was no one left and right, so he said, "Did you steal his father's person?" ”

When Shen Yanzhi heard this, he almost didn't catch his breath, and looked at Rongjin with wide eyes. "You can think of it, not only dare to think about it, but also dare to say it!"

Rong Jin felt that he was rare and strange, "What can't I think of." This prince has a criminal record, and even stole the wife of a court official, what's so unusual about the person who stole his father? ”

Shen Yanzhi felt that Rong Jin's words sounded right, but somehow he always felt a little awkward.

"Forget it, don't guess. Let me tell you, the crown prince colluded with the crown princess's personal palace maid today, framed the crown princess and plotted to kill the heirs of many of his concubines..."Shen Yanzhi recounted what happened today to Rong Jin in great detail. At the end, he concluded: "I think this prince is really a bit stupid, what kind of concubine drama is done, and it makes the emperor angry for no reason." This crown princess, although her appearance is mediocre, she has a natural and unearthly atmosphere, and she can be described as calm and calm when she encounters trouble. ”

Rong Jin nodded in agreement, "Hearing you say that, I think you are also a wonderful person, and you are still a master of four or two thousand pounds." ”

Shen Yanzhi was suddenly praised, a little embarrassed, and said modestly: "Where, where." It's all up to the intelligence of everyone present, otherwise no matter how resourceful, talented, and brilliant I am, I can't take it, right? ”

Rongjin: "..."

Not far away, Walnut and Fulu looked at the two masters who were chatting and laughing in the water pavilion, and Walnut couldn't help but say, "Actually, Miss and Uncle are quite a good match." Fulu nodded approvingly.
