“…… Well, I'll try it," Qin Lingyue heard the sound, stopped her chopsticks, and picked up a piece of soybean candy directly with her hand instead.

was about to bite his mouth, but he remembered something, broke off a small piece and handed it to Wan Zhu, the maidservant girl behind him.

Wan Zhu naturally understood, bowed down to take it, put it in his mouth and chewed it a few times and swallowed it into his stomach.

All this was seen by Qin Yuanxi, and his expression was not wavering, but his heart was overcast, and even Ziyun felt that the three county lords were too rude.

"Master, the slave maid tasted it for the first time, and I thought it was indeed delicious." Wan Zhu quickly gave up.

"Well," Qin Lingyue bowed her head, and then looked at Qin Yuanxi with a smile, "I hope that eldest sister will forgive me, several maidservants in my palace have always been strict with my diet, and they dare not be sloppy." ”

The smile on Qin Yuanxi's face did not disperse, "It's okay, it's reasonable,"

After waiting for a while, Qin Lingyue looked at Wan Zhu's face was fine, reached out and put the half of the soybean candy on the side of the plate, and took a complete piece of sugar into her mouth and bit a few pieces.

The taste does have traces of frying, and the bite is very hard.

Naturally, there is also obvious brown sugar on the outside, chewing slightly, and a layer of sugar crust sticks to the teeth.

Crispy and sweet.

This taste made Qin Lingyue's eyebrows fully expand, and there was a hint of joy for children eating sugar.

Qin Yuanxi took everything in and knew that her sister should like it.

He still asked, "What does my sister think of the taste?" ”

"Yes, this thing doesn't look pleasing to the eye, but it tastes sweet."

Qin Lingyue praised it from the bottom of her heart, and she had already reached out and picked up the second piece.

There were only seven pieces of sugar on the plate, and Qin Yuanxi quietly watched Qin Lingyue eat one piece after another, with a smile on the corner of her mouth.

She never reached out for candy, and her sister across the table didn't know how to give in.

Soon, only the original piece of missing corner was left on the plate, Qin Lingyue glanced at it, and finally picked it up and took a bite.

She asked again, "Is this soybean candy actually made by the eldest sister herself?" ”

"Yes."

"It's really a good snack, thank you sister for your hospitality, but it's not enough to eat, why don't you have sugar in the future, and the eldest sister will make some and send it to Linghe Palace?"

Brown sugar is not extravagant, Qin Lingyue can be sure that her eldest sister's palace is already exhausted, but it does not prevent her from reaching out to ask for some in the future.

Qin Yuanxi put the silk scarf in front of the table into his arms, and his face didn't show any displeasure, "As long as my sister likes to eat, it's fine, if there are ingredients, I, as the eldest sister, will naturally give them." ”

Qin Lingyue also put the last piece of soybean candy into her mouth at this time, licking her red lips unsatisfactorily.

Eating delicious food that she had never seen before, she was also in a very happy mood at this time.

It's just that the scorching sun is burning above her head, and the gazebo has never blocked a bit of fire, which makes Qin Lingyue's white forehead a little crystal sweat.

"Then it's decided, this candy is dry in the mouth, and the sun is dry, why don't you see tea?"

Seeing Qin Lingyue's question, Qin Yuanxi's calm face finally melted.

It seems that this fish has been hooked.

Getting up from the stool, she raised her right hand lightly, "There is tea in the palace, my sister might as well go and have a drink together." ”

"That's just right,"

With that, Qin Lingyue got up and walked out of the pavilion, followed by Wan Zhu.

It was a hot summer, and all the palaces of the palace were placed with ice cubes to cool down.

Entering the main hall, several people clearly felt a coolness that was different from the scorching heat outside.

Qin Yuanxi tidied up the light yarn on his body, and stopped at the entrance of the hall, "Go and bring the cold purple bamboo shoot tea and pour it for the county lord." ”

Purple bamboo shoot tea is a famous tea of imperial tribute, and it is naturally not her generosity to use it at this time, mainly because Qin Yuanxi feels that this should be the last time that her third sister drinks tea.

In the future, if you talk about filial piety, I am afraid that I will not be in this mood.

Ziyun was more worried than anyone else at this time, but she could only act according to the plan and stepped forward to look at the tea for the three county lords.

The table next to the chair was exactly where the book was placed, and Qin Lingyue hadn't paid attention to it yet.

Then Qin Yuanxi approached, "Sister drink tea first, wait for me to get some fruit?" ”

"Well, let's go." Qin Lingyue swung her hand casually, took the tea handed by Ziyun and drank it all.

Qin Yuanxi then turned around, carrying Qin Lingyue on his back, his eyelashes trembled slightly, and the corners of his mouth finally showed a triumphant smile.

The book was right in front of her, and she didn't believe she couldn't see it.

Qin Lingyue drank two glasses in a row to moisten her throat before she noticed that there was a book on the table.

She is naturally idle and boring, and casually takes the book to the bottom of her hand and rummages through it.

This turn is a page that records the true identity of the county lord of Hewan.

Qin Lingyue only glanced at it slightly, looked at it in the three columns, her face suddenly froze, and she immediately turned the book to the front, and there were four characters written on it.

And on each page of the book, the big red chapters of the Hanlin Academy and the historians show the authenticity of the book.

It was just a few simple rows of boys, but it made her hands tremble at this time, and if she hadn't sat well, her feet would be so soft that she would have almost fallen.

After a long time, Qin Lingyue finally pressed the thunderstorm in her heart and carefully confirmed the details of the words.

Qin Yuanxi deliberately gave her enough time to make sure that Qin Lingyue was sure several times, and she was still able to sit quietly.

In less than half a quarter of an hour, it was as if even the light through the windows of the main hall of Yunxi Palace was solidified.

Ziyun stood aside and noticed the frightened yin owl on the face of the three county lords, and couldn't help but sigh for a long time.

Eventually, the pages were crumpled and crumpled, loose and loose.

Qin Lingyue was unconscious, and there were several shocks on her immature and jade face.

She is just the adopted son of the concubine?

Her real mother died at birth.

Qin Lingyue was concealed by her father, mother, and grandparents for nearly eleven years.

Qin Lingyue couldn't accept such a shameless nameless biological mother.

Maybe it's really blood thicker than water, but in the blink of an eye, her heart has mixed tastes, and her thoughts flash.

The eyes are fixed on the black characters of "chasing the Qinghan Palace, Li's illness in the Qinghan Palace".

She can understand the reason why her grandmother is angry and expelled, but why did her biological mother become pregnant but not let people know, and she was almost stillborn?

Women are weak, but mothers are strong.

Qin Lingyue didn't believe that her mother was pregnant with a dragon heir, and she didn't ask for help for ten months.

No wonder everyone in the world is Tao, during the Yuanqing period, only the maidservants and maids can't do it.

Qin Lingyue thought that it was because her grandmother was the empress, and the woman had no chance to fly the phoenix when she entered the palace.

Isn't it okay for the prince, can't a few young princes?

It turns out that there is such a taboo in the twenty-third year of Yuanqing......

Although she has no feelings, she needs a reasonable explanation for all this about her, and why these relatives have to hide such an important identity from her.

Is it bad to be a concubine?

No..., maybe......

It wasn't until Qin Yuanxi entered the hall with the fruit that he clearly saw Qin Lingyue's sluggish expression.

Putting everything in his eyes, Qin Yuanxi smiled intentionally, "Sister, on a hot day, eat fruit to lower the fire." ”

"Huh? …… Good. Qin Lingyue, who came back to her senses from her heart, was startled.

After suddenly recovering his taste, he quickly shook his head, "No, no, eldest sister, I... I won't eat ......."

"Oh? Why did you suddenly stop eating? Qin Yuanxi pretended to be suspicious and put the fruit on the table on the plate.

Qin Lingyue reluctantly shook her head, "It's nothing, it's just that I just ate sugar, and I don't have much appetite." …… By the way, eldest sister, is your book a historical record of the founding of the Ning Dynasty? ”

"yes." Qin Yuanxi nodded, and then her gaze fell on the book in her hand,

"This is what I went to the Wensi Academy yesterday to find, a total of four books, I plan to take the time to study the past, this weather is boring, maybe there is something interesting to see from it."
