Mu Chen glanced at the tent.

It's deserted, and there is not even a charcoal basin, let alone something to cook rice.

He turned around and went out, carrying a bucket of water, a small red clay stove, a pot, and a pair of dishes and chopsticks.

"Master, you cook dumplings by yourself, I'll be busy."

"Go ahead."

Not long after Mu Chen went out, he came over with a small bowl and said with a smile: "Master, how can you eat dumplings without vinegar?" ”

Zhao Shu glanced at it and said, "You know that I have never liked the sour taste of vinegar. ”

"It's not the same to eat dumplings." Mu Chen put the bowl down and asked secretly, "Master, how long has it been since you eaten dumplings?" ”

"Where do you get all this nonsense?"

"Hehe, my subordinates will go out."

Mu Chen happily went out.

Zhao Shu poured some water into the pot, put it on the small stove, took a book, and sat by the stove to read.

The water is gradually boiling.

Zhao Shu put down the book and threw the dumplings into them one by one.

The hard dumplings fall into the boiling water and quickly become soft.

As the water boils again, the dumplings slowly float to the surface.

It's like a chubby little pillow.

Zhao Shu picked up the chopsticks and poked them.

The dumplings sink and float up again.

He seemed to find it amusing, and poked and poked each dumpling with chopsticks.

When Mu Chen came in, he saw this scene. Qiankun Audiobook.com

He silently observed for a while, and made sure that the prince was just playing, so he couldn't help but speak: "That, master, this dumpling is already cooked, if you poke it again, it will be rotten." ”

Zhao Shu glanced at him, put down the chopsticks, scooped the dumplings into the bowl, and said, "Come and eat together." ”

"My subordinates won't eat it, so I ordered dumplings in total...... This is a dumpling sent by the queen's mother, how can her subordinates eat it. Mu Chen put down a plate of meat and said, "Roast sheep is being made outside, and the subordinates should work hard to gnaw on the leg of mutton." ”

After saying that, he hurried away.

Zhao Shu ate it and found that there were six or seven different fillings for these dozens of dumplings.

Every time you eat one, it's a surprise.

Before you know it, you're done.

On the night of the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, although the snow was falling heavily and the moon in the sky could not be seen, the soldiers were very happy.

The next day, Mu Chen sent a message, saying that there was news from the Great Zhou that Xiao Ziliang, the king of Northern Qi, had taken the princess and dozens of officials of the Great Zhou to set off from the Great Zhou on the sixth day of the new year.

Mu Chen said: "In this way, they will be able to get here in about a month or so." ”

Zhao Shu said: "Since Xiao Ziliang left the Northern Qi Dynasty, how many battles have we fought? ”

"The king of the Northern Qi domain rebelled three times, and Jiuli once."

"Hopefully, before they arrive, things can be taken care of here." Zhao Shu said, "Once I'm not here, it's hard for the Jiuli tribe to say if there will be other actions." ”

Mu Chen was also a little worried when he heard this: "That Ji Wenyuan's army is elusive and treacherous. Except for the prince, you can restrain him, and you can't change it to someone else. Lord, either let's stay for a while. ”

Zhao Shu glanced at him and said, "What, do you want to resist the decree?" ”

Mu Chen was silent.

The emperor's will is so, as soon as the military generals who succeed him arrive, he must immediately pack up his baggage and return to the Great Zhou.

Mu Chen sighed and said quietly: "There is no one who can leave the general outside with confidence, this emperor has never been the emperor." ”

"Don't talk about these things." Zhao Shu stood up, "Instead of worrying, it's better to settle the matter before going back." ”

At this time, a soldier rushed in, knelt down on one knee and said, "General, we have been attacked!" ”
