Su Muling slept for a night, and when she woke up again, she was in good spirits. She took the girl to the kitchen and made lotus seed cake by herself.

Although she has amnesia, this cooking skill seems to grow in her mind, as long as the cook tells her once, she will remember it all.

In the kitchen, Su Muling is the head chef, and the cook girl is the first to soak, boil, crush and steam the lotus seeds with glutinous rice...... Finally, it is put into a mold and made into a lotus shape.

Su Muling happily put the lotus seed cake on the plate after making it, and walked back in person, asking the girl as she walked: "Is the prince at home?" I want the prince to taste my craft. ”

The girl replied to her: "It shouldn't be there, I saw the prince go out early this morning." ”

Su Muling pouted: "It's a pity, this lotus seed cake is the best when it is just made." ”

"The princess can stay at night, and when the princess comes back, it will be steamed again, and the taste will be the same." The girl followed her closely, not leaving an inch.

Since the last time Su Muling went to the study alone and bumped into Xiao Wenchen who was not in makeup, Xiao Wenchen told the girl not to let her walk alone. found that Su Muling appeared in a place where he shouldn't have appeared, so he let the girl die without a place to be buried.

Su Muling reluctantly agreed with her, and returned to her room, where she sat in front of the dresser and removed the jewelry from her head.

"Huh? Why are one of my earrings missing? Su Muling reached out to his left ear and looked at his feet.

The girl was about to turn around and leave, but when she heard Su Muling say this, she hurriedly turned around and helped look around.

"Gone? The princess still wore it when she went out. ”

"yes, why is it that the kung fu disappeared after such a while...... Hey, will it fall into the kitchen? Su Muling suddenly realized. You go to the kitchen and look for it, if you lose the normal one, you will lose it, but this is my favorite ......."

Su Muling said that she was so aggrieved that she wanted to cry.

When the girl saw it, she hurriedly comforted: "Don't worry, princess, the slave will go to the kitchen to find it." ”

"Well, I'm tired and want to sleep for a while, you can find it and put it on the outhouse table."

Su Muling said and walked to the bed, took off his shoes and went to bed, and lay down.

"Help me put down the tent, the sun is shining, I can't sleep well." Su Muling closed his eyes.

The girl came to put the tent down for her, and tiptoed out to find the earrings.

As soon as the girl came out of the yard, Su Muling got up from the bed with a grunt. I found another pair of shoes to put on, and quietly came to the study with lotus seed cake.

She knocked softly on the door, and called softly, "Lord Wang? ”

There was silence inside.

Su Muling looked around, pushed open the door and walked in quickly. Putting the lotus seed cake on the desk, Su Muling began to look here.

She looked at everything in the room with curiosity, the incense burner on the high table, the Buddha statue on the desk, the pen holder on the desk, and the green plants on the low table.

Finally, she went to the bookshelf that stood against the wall, and observed every book in front of her, as if they had been left here for some days and had not been touched, and the sky of the books was covered with a faint layer of dust.

Su Muling looked at them one by one, and finally stopped at a copy of "Liutao". The book is much newer than the book next to it, but half of it is darker at the top of the sky near the spine, as if it has been rubbed often.

Su Muling's eyes shone with excitement, and his hand reached out to "Liutao"...... After hearing only a slight click, a row of bookshelves in front of her suddenly parted to the sides, revealing a door.

Su Muling's blood suddenly fluttered, she glanced at the door of the study nervously, took out the night pearl from her purse, calmed down, took a few deep breaths, opened the door and walked in.

Su Muling looked around and saw a protruding wedge by the door. Clever she pressed lightly, and the bookshelf and door closed silently behind her.

In front of her was a long dark passage, but the one in the Peace King's Mansion was much simpler and crude.

Su Muling walked along the dark path and walked for about a quarter of an hour, and the space in front of him suddenly opened up. Not far away, on a dozen steps up, another door appeared.

Su Muling quietly stepped forward and put his ear to the door to listen to the movement on that side, and the sound of talking faintly came from the other side of the door.

Su Muling didn't dare to open the door rashly, but she was curious about what was at the end of the door.

As she hesitated, her eyes lit up, and she noticed that a brick not far from the door was obviously loose, and it seemed that someone had deliberately made it like this to secretly observe the movement in the door.

Su Muling suppressed the excitement in her heart, reached out to take the brick, and the brick was easily taken away, and a trace of light passed through, Su Muling looked inside with her eyes uneasily......

In the opposite room, a man sat in the middle with his back to her, surrounded by several people.

Su Muling secretly counted them, and there were as many as forty or fifty people. These people were all dressed in ordinary coarse cloth clothes, and looked like ordinary farmers and hunters.

But looking closely, Su Muling found that these people didn't look like ordinary people, they were sturdy, with a narrow back and a bulging forearm. Looking at the faces again, all of them have blazing eyes, closed lips, and grim expressions, obviously Deadpool who has been raised by high-ranking officials and magnates.

Su Muling held her breath and tried to listen to what the man sitting in the middle said.

“…… You must hide well, it won't be a few days, and when the time is ripe, we can return to the capital to work together." ”

"Yes." The men bowed their hands.

The man stood up and turned. It was the friend who Su Muling had seen in the study that day who claimed to be Xiao Wenxuan.

I saw that the man's eyes swept over everyone, and he raised his legs and walked in the direction of Su Muling.

Discovered? Su Muling was so frightened that he hurriedly put the brick back in place, calmed his heartbeat and wanted to go back. But just after going down the steps, the door behind him suddenly made a noise, and Su Mu Lingxin jumped wildly in fright, run? It's too late.

In desperation, she hurriedly hid in the corner behind the door, crouched/curled up, buried her face in her knees, and barely dared to breathe.

The door to the secret passage was opened, and the man stood there with a candle in his hand. The man glanced behind him and closed the door.

Su Muling didn't dare to raise her head, she didn't know if the man would find out.

It was pitch black in the secret passage, and Su Muling held the night pearl in his hand tightly, not daring to say a trace of light?

The candlelight in the man's hand was dim, barely illuminating only a few steps under his feet, and he did not notice anything unusual behind the door, and strode forward.

Su Muling listened to the footsteps moving away, and then dared to quietly raise his head to look at the figure.

Suddenly, the man stopped as if sensing something, and turned his head to look in Su Muling's direction.

Su Muling was stunned on the spot, he didn't even dare to blink his eyes, and stared at him directly.

In a moment, the man turned around and walked into the darkness again......

Su Muling clutched his hands on his chest, and his throat was extremely painful because he was too nervous. Su Muling waited in place for a long time before she got up, she wanted to go back, but her hand reached for the door beside her. After a moment of hesitation, she finally decided to go and see what was behind the door.

To be on the safe side, she lifted the brick again and looked out through the brick again...... No one is gone.

Su Muling clenched her fists, took a deep breath, and opened the door. Tiptoe out.

This is an ordinary hut, there are still a few animal skins hanging on the wall of the house, Su Muling pushed open the door and came to the yard, only to find that this hut was originally built in the woods. She tried to open the courtyard door, but the courtyard door was locked from the outside.

Su Muling's lips tightened, and he didn't dare to stay longer, and returned the same way.

Su Muling, who returned to the study, was already drenched in sweat, there was no one in the room, the man who came back before her was nowhere to be found, and the plate of lotus seed cake on the table was still there.

She picked up the pastry and wanted to go back to her room. When he arrived at the door, there was a sound of footsteps outside, Su Muling didn't know who it was, but he pretended to sit back at the table calmly, picked up a book on the table casually, and flipped through it casually.

"You? When did it come? ”

Xiao Wenchen, who was disguised as Xiao Wenxuan, pushed open the door and saw Su Muling sitting at the table lazily and boredly.

Seeing him come in, the statue of Su Muling was injected with vitality, and the whole person was in good spirits instantly.

"Where has the prince gone? I've been waiting for you here for a long time. ”

Su Muling stood up and brought the lotus seed cake forward, picked up a piece with a smile and handed it to his mouth.

"How about I make it, how about tasting it?"

Xiao Wenchen took the lotus seed cake and didn't eat it, he looked in the direction of the bookshelf, circled around Su Muling again, and pretended to ask casually, "Where did you go just now?" ”

Su Muling's heart stopped for a moment, then turned around and pouted: "I got up early in the morning and was busy making lotus seed cakes, thinking of bringing them to you to eat, but you weren't there, so I went to the garden for a walk when I was sleepy." No, I just came back and took a nap, and you came back. ”

After Xiao Wenchen heard what she said, the doubts on his face dissipated a little, put the lotus seed cake in his mouth, nodded and couldn't help but praise: "Not bad." "He hates these kinds of pastries the most.

Since getting the affirmation of "Xiao Wenxuan", Su Muling has become keen on all kinds of desserts, and the kitchen is also a place she often visits.

On this day, Su Muling was trying a new variety, and the girl who had been following her was instructed by her to grind mung bean flour. Only she and a cook in her thirties were left in the kitchen.

"Mother Zhang, is there anything new outside lately?"

Su Muling sat on a chair and leisurely watched the cook busy with lunch.

The cook replied without raising her head: "It's true, yesterday the wife of the Liu family was caught stealing a man......

Su Muling frowned slightly and interrupted her: "I heard the prince say that the prince of Ping escaped, and I don't know if he was caught." ”

"Prince Ping...... Probably not. The cook paused and went on with her work.

"Since ancient times, there has been a rebellion, and the nine clans have been connected, although he is the younger brother of the emperor, and he will not destroy the nine clans, but the son of the world is the son of King Ping, even if he can escape for a while, he will not be able to escape for a lifetime. When he is arrested, all those who are involved with him are afraid that they will suffer. The light ones will never see the light of day in the land of extreme suffering, and the heavy ones will not be able to save their lives. ”

When Su Muling said this, her eyes never left her face. Seeing that the cook was not abnormal, she continued to ask:

"Is there anyone else in Zhang's mother's family?"

The cook is a widow, and she is a widow who has been married twice. Because two men died one after another, the people in the village called her a "mourning star" and drove her out of the village. The cook had nowhere to go, so she took her seven-year-old child and ran here to work.

"At home...... The man died, and there was only one son. The cook bowed her head and replied humbly.

"Hey, you're a miserable person, too. I have no mother since I was a child, and I only have one relative, my father. ”

Su Muling stood up and came to her, grabbed her hand, and stuffed a silver ticket into her hand: "You take this money and buy some food for the child." ”

After saying that, I didn't make the mung bean cake anymore, and I left without looking back.
