Chapter 288: Three Princes and Nine Emperors (I)
When Dongfang Chou went to Chen to pick up Lin Ying's mother Su Qin back to Chu, Lin Ying's father and the eldest princess of Chu went to Jinyang Palace in Chen State to deliver a letter to Queen Chen Lin Huan, and also delivered a letter to Zhao Qi and Yan Xiao on behalf of Shu'er, so he naturally recognized Zhao Qi, Yan Xiao, Queen Chen Lin Huan and Princess Li Su.
Now that Chen is in trouble, Dongfang Chou was not surprised that Queen Chen would take his daughter to take refuge in Chu State, so he saluted Lin Huan and Li Su: "Welcome ......" and saw that there were people coming and going in Linjiang Restaurant, so he changed his words and said: "Welcome cousin and ......" But seeing that Li Su was the same age as himself, he couldn't call out a "niece", so he had to smile and say: "Welcome cousin and Xiao Su to Chu." ”
When Li Su saw Dongfang Shu in Jinyang Palace the year before last, he didn't know that he was the son of Lin Long, the ninth princess of Chu State, until Chu Guoyi's surname Dongfang, it was rumored that Dongfang Yu, the king of Chu, had sealed Lin Long who escaped from the Song Palace, and the two had a pair of children, the daughter was called Dongfang Shu, and the son was called Dongfang Shu. Li Su looked at Dongfang with a smile, and changed his words: "Little cousin, thank you for coming to welcome us." ”
Lin Ying and Shu'er hadn't seen Lin Huan and Li Su for several years. Although Lin Huan was a little haggard, his appearance had not changed much, but Li Yu had grown a lot taller than the ten-year-old girl who bought a painting of Lin Ying on the upper floor of Fanjing Old City, and she was already a slim cardamom girl at this time.
Lin Huan said to Dongfang: "My cousin has really grown a lot taller in the year of dancing spoons!" But suddenly remembered her son who died in vain in Shu, and thought that she couldn't watch her son grow to such an age in this life, and couldn't help but sigh.
Zhao Qi, Yan Xiao, Su Yang, Su Liu, Yan Qing and Yan Xiu had already seen Lin Ying and Shu'er, Lin Huan's voice did not fall, only Zhao Qi smiled at Shu'er and said: "Okay, little white-eyed wolf, your Aunt Yan and I worked hard to pull you up, and now that your wings are hard, you cling to rich relatives everywhere, and you don't care about our life or death, right?" ”
Shu'er deliberately ignored Zhao Qi, saluted Lin Huan, and winked at Li Su, then hurriedly took Yan Xiao's hand and said, "Aunt Yan, I have sent you several letters, why don't you reply to one?" Aunt Song, what about them? Why didn't I come with you? ”
Yan Xiao held Shu'er's hand, shook his head and said, "Maung City has been broken, Song Yun and Zhang Qi are ...... It's really a lot of bad luck. ”
After Lin Ying greeted everyone, she walked to Dongfang Chou's side and asked in a low voice, "Little Dongfang, why did you come out with you?" ”
Dongfang raised his chin and said, "Your Royal Highness the Prince, I just sent someone to follow my sister to protect her, but I didn't follow behind your ass." I saw that you hadn't returned to the palace for a long time, so I came to look for it myself. The guard said that you were on the Chushui cruise ship, I thought, when the cruise ship docked, it was almost lunch time, and you must come here to eat, so I came over to wait for the rabbits, but I didn't expect that so many rabbits came, so it was not lively! ”
Lin Ying nodded approvingly: "Your little brain is better than your sister's." ”
Dongfang said disdainfully: "Am I not just a better brain than her?" I grew up with my father, and I was much better than her in terms of martial arts. ”
Lin Ying smiled: "Tut-tut, you also know that you are better than your sister." ”
While the two were arguing, Lu Yu had already led everyone to the location near the window on the second floor. The crowd put several large tables together and sat around them. Shu'er looked at the familiar faces one by one, and couldn't help but feel in a trance, as if she had returned to Chen Guofanjing.
Lu Yu was about to ask everyone what they wanted to eat, but seeing that they were all busy talking with Shu'er, Lin Ying and Dongfang Shou, they didn't want to bother with the name of the dish. Lu Xuan was standing aside and couldn't speak, Lin Ying suddenly turned his head and said to him: "Brother Xiao Lu, first give each of us a cup of pear blossom tea, as well as your eight-dish platter of Linjiang Restaurant - Linjiang Immortal Drunken Chicken, Rice Vinegar Mixed Jellyfish, Candied Gherkins, Osmanthus Glutinous Rice Root, Boiled Edamame in Salt Water, Hundred-year-old Braised Phoenix Feet, Wild Vegetables Wrapped in Cool Bamboo Shoots, and Bean Skin Wrapped with Small Shrimp."
Hot dishes - steamed fresh sea bass in Yuhe, dried shredded soft crab steak in Chushui, steamed eel in the East China Sea, roasted pork ribs in sweet and sour honey sauce, xiaolongbao with crab roe soup, stewed tender spring bamboo shoots in sweet and salty oil, golden crispy fried bells, fragrant broth fairy duck, braised beef tendon with star anise, and stewed mushrooms with white bird and phoenix. ”
After Lin Ying finished speaking in frustration, she asked Shu'er, "Do you still want to eat?" ”
Shu'er smiled and shook her head.
Lu Xuan was dumbfounded for a moment after hearing this, and asked, "We haven't cooked so many dishes in Linjiang Restaurant for many years, could it be that Cheng Gongzi has come to our restaurant with Xiao Shu'er before?" ”
Lin Ying said with a smile: "Brother Xiao Lu, we opened a branch of Linjiang Restaurant in Chen Guo, and I would have memorized the names of these dishes more than ten years ago." It's just that I don't know if the Chu State is not fighting now, can you still take out these dishes to entertain the distinguished guests who come from afar? ”
Lu Yu nodded and said: "A few years ago, we did only have seven dishes, but this year there is no war, the army in Qiwang County has also been reorganized, many men have been exempted from military service in the county, and they have gone home to farm and do business, and the restaurant has also come to a new cook and many guys, these dishes are naturally remade." Ladies and gentlemen, I'll go to the back kitchen and tell you. ”
The newcomer quickly brought two pots of pear blossom tea, filled the tea cups in front of everyone one by one, and Lin Ying instructed: "Please bring some rock candy again." The man handed the rock candy to Lin Ying, and Lin Ying threw a small piece of rock candy into Shu'er's tea cup, grabbed another piece, and put it in his own tea cup.
Dongfang looked at Shu'er's teacup, and was about to glare at Lin Ying angrily, when the footsteps of more than a dozen people suddenly came downstairs. Dongfang turned to look at the staircase, only to see a dozen masked men walking up with various weapons.
The diners in the restaurant saw that the visitors were not good, so they held their breath and concentrated, only Li Su whispered to Lin Huan: "They are all masked people, but these people don't seem to be the same group of people as we met in Xiling." ”
The masked man led by him raised his big knife with a "whoop" and said to the diners: "Idlers, get out!" What the grandfathers are going to kill today is the prince of the Lin family! ”
The diners fled one after another, but Lin Ying slowly and leisurely asked in a thick Chen Guofanjing accent: "Oh? Which is the Prince of the Lin Clan? You point it out to us carefully, and we can make friends with him. ”
The masked man pointed at Lin Ying with a big knife and said in a pure Chu accent: "Don't play tricks!" You're Maya Lin! You stay, everyone else, get out of here! ”
Lin Ying smiled: "So you know me!" Why don't you do it? Do you want to wait for me to ask you who sent you to kill me? ”
The masked man raised his voice and said, "Do you still need to ask?" What is the surname of Chu today? What's your last name? ”
Lin Ying nodded, and continued to ask with a pleasant face: "It turns out that you have been delaying your move, and you actually want to openly frame the assassination of me to the current King of Chu?" ”
The masked man was furious: "Less nonsense! So a big knife struck at him.
At this time, Dongfang Shou lifted the table, angrily pulled out the long sword at his waist, and rushed up to fight with the dozen or so black-clothed people, shouting: "You guys go quickly!" ”
Shu'er pulled Lin Ying up and said to everyone: "Come with me!" ”
Lin Ying was not in a hurry, still standing in place. "Sister Shu'er, I'm afraid it's not me who these people want to kill, but Xiao Dongfang." So he looked downstairs, but he didn't see a single guard, and immediately frowned and said, "Not good!" The guards he brought out of the palace should have been killed by these people. ”
