Chapter 373
The little emperor seemed to be sick and unconscious, and he didn't know the meaning of Changle to stop him, so he stepped forward and reached out to hold Xiao Qi's wrist.
"Seventh Daddy, I'll take you to see our secret base."
The little emperor's hand was still very strong, and he directly pulled Xiao Qi and walked forward.
Changle stomped his feet anxiously, this palace is full of the prince's eyeliner, if the prince knows, he can pay it back!
A few days ago, there was a big quarrel because of Cui Jin, and if the prince knew about it, the two would inevitably have a dispute.
Changle couldn't, so he had to go with him.
The little emperor took Xiao Qi and ran to the Imperial Garden, and to the west of the rockery forest in the Imperial Garden was a bamboo forest.
The little emperor took Xiao Qi and ran into the bamboo forest, this bamboo forest has been around for some years, and there was a concubine in Gaozu who loved bamboo, so Gaozu planted this bamboo forest for her, and it has been until now.
Later, after being discovered by the little emperor and Xiao Qi, they often came here to play.
The two of them ran extremely fast, throwing Changle away.
After running to the bamboo forest at this time, the little prince pointed to the bamboo forest here, with a somewhat proud look on his face.
"Seventh Dad, in the past few years since you were away, I have been guarding here, and now that you are finally back, you see, they have all grown up, and they have sons and grandchildren."
I saw the little emperor take out a dagger from his waist, and the knife fell in his hand, and a bamboo thick man's arm fell in response, and a fat little thing came out of it.
Xiao Qi's eyes lit up when he saw it.
"Bamboo rat!"
In previous years, there were people who copied the bamboo forest here, and the bamboo rats would be wiped out when they saw it.
That year, Xiao Qi and the little emperor accidentally discovered this place, and Xiao Qi saw that there were bamboo rats, and the coke was broken.
Bamboo rats are a good thing, and my brother ate them once, and said they were particularly delicious.
Xiao Qi has been very greedy since then, and after seeing it at that time, he has always wanted to get it to eat.
It's just that at that time, only two were caught, still a male and a female, thinking that if they were kept, according to their breeding speed, it would not be long before there would be a lot of bamboo rats to eat.
But not long after, before she could eat her mouth, she went to Yugu.
The little emperor turned his head to look at her, the moonlight was reflected in the bamboo forest, and the moonlight seemed to be crushed, falling on her face, half-hidden, adding a hazy beauty.
"It's bamboo rats, I remember that Seventh Dad wanted to eat them at that time, so I have been raising them, just waiting for you to enter the palace again."
Xiao Qi felt that the little emperor was simply too cute.
Although he was like a fart when he was a child, he loved to cry, but when he grew up, he was quite cute, and he always remembered what she said.
Xiao Qi raised his hand and touched his head, happy.
"Your Majesty is so good."
He looked at her, the shadow of the bamboo leaves covering his face.
He's not five or six years old, he's grown up and doesn't want to be treated like a child.
He took Xiao Qi's hand off his head, and his eyes were deep and black.
"I'm not a child anymore, I have a name, I promise you to call me my name."
"Oh...... What's your name? "Xiao Qi really doesn't remember.
He looked at Xiao Qi's heartless appearance, and he didn't care, took her hand, and wrote the word Zheng Xun in her palm one by one.
After writing the last stroke, Zheng Xun clicked on her palm, smiled and held her hand in the palm of her hand.
"Remember? My name is Zheng Xun. ”
Xiao Qi sighed, not caring what his name was, but caring about the bamboo rat in the bamboo forest at this time.
She ran to catch the bamboo rat, Zheng Xun looked at his palm, there was still her soft residual warmth, he held the dagger in his hand, cut down the bamboo, the bamboo rat came out, he stepped forward and picked up the tail of the bamboo rat and sent it to Xiao Qi.
Xiao Qi couldn't help but swallow his saliva when he saw it, and his eyes were about to glow.
Zheng Xun released the bamboo rat at this time, and Xiao Qi tilted his head to look at him.
"What are you doing?"
"Don't worry, there are a lot of them here, go back and let my father-in-law arrest them, Seventh Dad, you come here."
As he spoke, he took Xiao Qi's hand and walked towards the depths of the bamboo forest.
The bamboo here is much thicker than other places, Zheng Xun chiseled a hole in the bamboo, Xiao Qi saw that an amber liquid flowed out of it, and soon, the faint aroma of wine instantly diffused.
Zheng Xun took out two glass cups like a trick, took two glasses of wine, and handed Xiao Qi a glass.
"Bamboo tube wine, taste it."
Xiao Qi was surprised, took a sip after taking it, and couldn't help but give a thumbs up.
As soon as you taste this wine, you can tell that it was poured into the bamboo shoots when the bamboo shoots are peeling, and after a second fermentation, it has the current taste.
"How do you know how to make bamboo tube wine?" Xiao Qi took another sip and tasted infinitely: "It's really good, I only knew that the Yao and Miao people were good at brewing this, they were all in Nanzhao, but I didn't expect Your Majesty to be so good at it." ”
When Zheng Xun heard that Nanzhao and the Yao clan were still alive, his eyebrows moved slightly, and he changed the topic with a smile.
"I saw it in the book, there is also wine here, plum wine, and I don't know how the taste has changed after being brewed in a bamboo tube.
As he spoke, Zheng Xun broke a few more and let Xiao Qi taste them one by one.
Xiao Qi didn't expect to be able to taste such a delicacy when he entered the palace tonight.
"Your Majesty, when I go back in a while, I will cut two cylinders and take them away, so that the prince can also taste it."
Xiao Qi has already planned, and the bamboo forest at home will be arranged when he goes back.
Zheng Xun listened to Xiao Qi mention Cui Yu, the corners of his lips were still smiling, but there was no smile in his eyes.
"The regent doesn't like to drink, Father Seven, when do you want to drink, I have someone pick you up."
Xiao Qi really didn't remember when Cui Yu had drunk, so he nodded after a sigh.
Zheng Xun pulled Xiao Qi to sit on the ground, and gave Xiao Qi the pastries he brought when he came out just now, which was barely a snack for snacks.
"Seventh father, I have often gone to the Regent's Mansion to look for you in the past two years, and the Regent said that you are sick, and you are now cured while recuperating?"
"Healed."
Zheng Xun listened to what she said in person, and he was relieved.
He told Xiao Qi about the interesting things that happened in the palace and Jingzhong in the past two years, and the two of them chatted while drinking.
When Cui Yu came to find it, he saw two little drunk cats talking and laughing.
Xiao Qi touched Zheng Xun's head, and patted him with his hand inappropriately when he was drunk.
"You kid has the potential to be a faint gentleman, you old man...... Under Jiuquan, I will definitely be angry with you......" Xiao Qi said vaguely.
Zheng Xun held Xiao Qi's hand, and he was also drunk.
"You're drunk, they're ...... It's all dead, how can you still be killed by me......"
Xiao Qi smiled and wanted to stand up, but he was drunk and his feet were unstable, and he was about to fall, but he was pulled by Zheng Xun, so he fell into his arms and was hugged by Zheng Xun.
Cui Yu just saw this scene, a trace of darkness flashed in his eyes, and his cheeks tightened.
strode over and pulled Xiao Qiyi up.
Xiao Qizui saw clearly that it was Cui Yu, raised his arm and stood on tiptoe to wrap around his neck.
"Lord Wang, you're here, you can taste it...... Taste the bamboo tube wine brewed by His Majesty...... It's delicious...... And the bamboo rat, tomorrow I will stew a pot of wine......"
Zheng Xun also staggered to his feet and pulled Cui Yu's sleeve.
"Regent...... I'm not drunk, I can still drink, I won't miss the morning tomorrow ......"
Cui Yu looked at the two drunk cats, one lying in his arms, and the other grabbing his sleeve.
Cui Yu stretched out his hand to hug Xiao Qi's slender waist and glanced at Zheng Xun lightly.
"It seems that there is less government affairs for His Majesty on weekdays, and I have time to drink and catch bamboo rats." Cui Yu's voice was obviously displeased, "Come on, send Your Majesty back to the palace, cook the sobering soup, and let the imperial doctor go over and take a look." ”
After speaking, he picked up Xiao Qiheng and walked out of the bamboo forest.
Zheng Xun watched Cui Yu leave with Xiao Qi in his arms, and the confusion in his eyes gradually dissipated, and it was a little darker.
