Chapter Ninety-Eight: Ice Feast

Mu Ningxuan hasn't done anything yet, Guo Xiaoniang just died, and Mu Ningxuan felt a little regretful.

But since Guo Xiaoniang was beaten to death by her father, her mother's revenge and Feng's mother's revenge for the killing of her whole family can be regarded as revenge, Mu Ningxuan comforted herself.

Originally, she was a simple character, but these days she has been forcing herself to conspire and calculate.

Although rebirth requires revenge, Mu Ningxuan does not want to live with bitterness and hatred all the time.

These days, she has also figured out that since the people she wants to protect are now around, she just needs to do her best to protect them.

In this life, she is to let the people around her be safe and healthy, and live smoothly and worry-free.

It's been getting hotter lately.

The streets and alleys of the capital are full of cold drink stalls, which are supported by green cloth umbrellas, and mahogany tables and chairs are placed under the umbrellas.

There are many types of cold drinks, such as "Ice and Snow Licorice Soup", "Ice and Snow Cold Yuanzi", "Raw Flooded Papaya", "Cold Water Lychee Paste", "Medicinal Papaya", "Snow Bubble Bean Water", "Snow Bubble Plum Wine" and so on.

"Medicinal papaya" is more troublesome, first use boiling water to boil the whole papaya until it is white, then dig open the papaya cover with a knife, dig out the gourd, rinse it with water, put salt into the papaya, put Huoxiang, put Angelica dahurica, put sand kernels, you can also put other Chinese medicinal materials as needed, and then add some water, put it in a cool place, overnight, the water in the papaya is dry, pour out those medicinal materials, and then put honey in it, and then overnight, the honey also seeps into the papaya, at this time cut the papaya into small pieces, soak it in ice water and eat;

"Snow bubble bean water" and "snow bubble plum wine" are very simple, "snow bubble" means ice, snow bubble bean water is iced mung bean soup, and snow bubble plum wine refers to chilled plum blossom wine.

In addition to the cold drinks such as "Ice and Snow Licorice Soup" and "Snow Bubble Plum Wine", there are also a class of cold drinks, such as "Cool Sour Pulp", "Papaya Pulp", "Grape Pulp", "Bayberry Thirsty Water", "Lychee Thirsty Water", "Grape Thirsty Water", "Sugar Thirsty Water", "Ringo Thirsty Water", "Papaya Thirsty Water"...

The wedding banquet of the eldest brother Mu Yuchen is August 12, the heat is the hottest time.

Mu Ningxuan is studying the cold drinks in these street markets, and asks Xiaofu and the others to buy a few things to taste every day, and wants to set a few to use at the eldest brother's wedding banquet.

Coincidentally, Princess Jin sent a post to Princess Gaorou and invited Princess Gaorou to participate in the "Ice Banquet" held by King Jin's Mansion.

As the name suggests, the "Ice Banquet" is to invite everyone to the Jin Palace's Mansion to taste all kinds of cold drinks.

So Princess Gao Rou took Mu Ningxuan, Mu Ningjia and Mu Ningyin to the Jin Palace.

Mu Ningyin has been strictly disciplined by Princess Gaorou recently, and her temperament has become much more stable.

At the banquet of the Jin Palace, there are all kinds of cold drinks that can be seen on the market, and there are a few new products that cannot be bought on the street.

Mu Ningxuan tasted almost everything, and was eating when she heard a man's voice beside her.

"Ning Xuan, the county lord, once wrote in the medical book: The heat is hot, the abdomen is burning, the sweat is all over, the heart is thirsty, suddenly encountering ice and snow and cold pulp, drink as much as possible, sleep in the cold, stagnate for a long time, and diarrhea if you don't malaria in autumn. It can be seen that eating a lot of ice is not good for your body, so you should eat less. ”

Mu Ningxuan raised her eyes and saw that the person who spoke was actually Doctor An of the Imperial Hospital in the palace, Imperial Doctor An was in his early twenties, the youngest imperial doctor in the palace, and he was quite accomplished in medical skills.

"Doctor An, why are you here?" Seeing that Imperial Physician An was carrying a medicine box in his hand, Mu Ningxuan couldn't help but ask curiously, "Is anyone in the palace sick?" ”

Imperial Doctor An shook his head and said: "It was Princess Jin who invited me over, Princess Jin is worried that the invited guests have eaten these ice products, in case there is gastrointestinal discomfort, I can treat it in time here." ”

Mu Ningxuan praised: "Princess Jin is really thoughtful! I only took a small sip of each of these cold drinks, and it was fine. ”

Although now in the court, the faction of the third prince Jin Wang and the fifth prince Shu Wang are arguing over the matter of the crown prince.

But these do not affect the correspondence between the ladies of the Gaomen, after all, no one knows whether the future official family will be the third prince King Jin or the fifth prince King Shu, so Princess Jin and Princess Shu are both very likely to become future queens.

This time, in response to the future "queen" post, the ladies of all the provinces went to all those who received the post.

Mu Ningxuan continued to taste a few cold drinks, but saw Guo Miaoying from the Earl's Mansion coming over.

"Sister Xuan!"

Mu Ningxuan stood up and saluted simply: "Sister Miaoying's makeup." ”

Guo Miaoying replied: "It's been a long time since I saw Sister Xuan, how is Sister Xuan lately?" ”

"It's all good." Mu Ningxuan said with a smile, a little detached in her tone.

Guo Miaoying continued: "Sister Xuan, is the third sister of your family here? ”

"Here we are." Mu Ningxuan nodded.

"Why didn't I see her?" Guo Miaoying

Mu Ningxuan hasn't done anything yet, Guo Xiaoniang just died, and Mu Ningxuan felt a little regretful.

But since Guo Xiaoniang was beaten to death by her father, her mother's revenge and Feng's mother's revenge for the killing of her whole family can be regarded as revenge, Mu Ningxuan comforted herself.

Originally, she was a simple character, but these days she has been forcing herself to conspire and calculate.

These days, she has also figured out that since the people she wants to protect are now around, she just needs to do her best to protect them.
