Chapter 68: Peach Blossom Cake
Teng Ziyan only felt that her head was in a mess, and she walked out of the Council Hall in a daze, and she didn't even know how she returned to Chaoyun Palace.
"Princess, princess."
It wasn't until Xia Zhu kept calling her that she finally came back to her senses.
"Natsutake." Teng Ziyan grabbed Xia Zhu's arm, like a drowning person finally grabbed a piece of driftwood, "Father may want me to go and kiss, what should I do, I always feel that the queen is uneasy and kind to propose this." What should I do, what should I do, I just found my brother, and this is going to be separated again......"
Looking at the princess who was completely panicked, Xia Zhu's eyes turned red. For so many years, the princess has struggled and carefully avoided the queen. finally waited for Situ Gongzi, and the princess's life finally got better, but she met her relatives again. The princess's life is really miserable......
"Princess, let's go find Situ Gongzi, he has a lot of ideas, he must be able to find a way."
"No way!" Teng Ziyan's expression suddenly became serious, and she was like two people who had no master of the six gods just now.
"......"
"Don't talk about it, brother, he has his own plan, if you tell him about it, it will definitely ruin his original plan, no."
Looking at Teng Ziyan's strong pretend, Xia Zhu only felt more heartbroken, nodding on the surface, but in his heart he was thinking about when to tell Situ Huantong the news behind the princess's back. After all, no matter how important the plan is, it can't be more important than the princess's lifelong event.
On the other side, Huantong did not take An Xiruo out of the city again, but handed over all the affairs outside the city to Meng Qi, and took An Xiruo back to settle in peace.
"Don't you really need to watch outside the city, what if there is any more trouble." An Xiruo stood at the gate of the White Tiger Camp and asked with some concern.
Huantong rubbed An Xiruo's head soothingly, and said, "No one will make trouble for the time being, and Meng Qi can solve the rest by himself." ”
An Xiruo seemed to be saying something, but was stopped by Phantom Tong, and he pushed An Xiruo to the yard while saying, "Don't worry about it, you can stay and recuperate now, and wait for me to make you pastries to eat." By the way, what do you want to eat? ”
"It's all right, but it's ......"
"If it's okay, the peach blossoms in our yard are blooming, so let's eat peach blossom crisp."
Huantong knew what An Xiruo wanted to say, but he didn't agree at all. These things, he didn't want An Xiruo to be involved too much, the situation in the future would only become more and more dangerous, since An Xiruo had been involved, Phantom Tong only begged An Xiruo not to fall too deep.
An Xiruo was slightly anxious, frowning slightly, and the cinnabar mole between the eyebrows was even more eye-catching. That appearance made Huantong trance, thinking of the girl he pulled out of the fire a few years ago, in Lingcheng, on such a night when half the sky was stained with blood. They have been together for more than a month, soothing each other's pain from the loss of their loved ones, and Phantom Tong once thought that they could snuggle up to each other like this forever, but in the end they were separated.
"Xiaoxi, do you know where the peach blossom cake is the best...... "The Phantom Tong asked in a hurry, and he regretted it after asking.
On the day he first saw him, he was convinced that An Xiruo was the old man. Phantom Tong wanted to recognize him, but he found that An Xiruo didn't seem to want to mention his former identity, so he didn't speak again. But I didn't expect that today, a panicked god, and said this temptation again, maybe I was still looking forward to it in my heart.
Just ask, just ask, Phantom Tong thought to himself.
An Xiruo seemed to be still thinking about the victims outside the city, and shook his head absentmindedly.
Huantong looked at An Xiruo like that, as if he wanted to see her through, and said slowly: "If you want to make the peach blossom cake delicious, one is to look at the heat, and the other is to pick peach blossoms." And the best peach blossoms in Shangqu are in Lingcheng. ”
In the three words of Lingcheng, Phantom Tong bites very hard. Since he asked everything, he didn't want to return in vain.
Sure enough, An Xiruo's face froze. The two words Lingcheng are like thorns, deeply rooted in An Xiruo's heart, even if they don't touch it, it hurts to make people chill. Memories flooded into my heart like a tide, and those happy or sad memories appeared in front of me one by one.
An Xiruo only felt dizzy, and his breathing was a little heavier.
Phantom Tong didn't see it, but when he turned his back, the corners of his mouth hooked. She really remembered, Phantom Tong thought to herself.
Although he was sure that Anxi was Anlingxi back then, Huantong was afraid, he was afraid that their common memories would have been forgotten by Anxiruo.
"You sit here and wait, although the peach blossoms in our courtyard are not as good as those in Lingcheng, but my craftsmanship is excellent, and you will definitely eat excellent peach blossom crisp."
Phantom Tong picks peach blossoms in front of the peach trees in the yard, only the ones that are in full bloom, the colors are bright, and the petals have to be in mind, which must not be eaten by insects.
An Xiruo looked at the back and was distracted, and his mind was all disturbed by a sentence from Phantom Tong. The past of the mausoleum city has long been like a world away, but now it is vivid. Looking at the busy figure of Huantong, reminiscing, looking at it, I suddenly felt that the gesture was like an old man.
I thought about it for a long time, but I couldn't remember what that person looked like. But I want to go to Huantong once said that I used to know a girl with a mole on her eyebrows, so I can't do it......
"Brother Phantom Tong!"
An Xiruo's thoughts were interrupted by a childish child's voice, and when he looked towards the door, he saw Teng Zirui in a strong suit.
"Your Majesty will meet His Royal Highness the Eighth Prince."
"Sister Ann doesn't need to be polite." As he spoke, he stepped forward to help An Xiruo, glanced around, and asked, "Where has Brother Huantong gone?" ”
"Here." Hearing the movement in the courtyard, Huantong popped his head out of the small kitchen and waved his hand at Teng Zirui.
Teng Zirui looked at Phantom Tong with some surprise, and said, "It is said that the gentleman is far away from cooking, Brother Phantom Tong, you are ......"
As soon as these words came out, Huantong didn't feel anything, but An Xiruo on the side turned red, and after a quick glance at Huantong, he quickly lowered his head.
Seeing that An Xiruo was embarrassed, Huantong took back what he wanted to tease her, and looked at Teng Zirui very seriously: "If one day, His Highness also meets such a person, he will naturally understand Weichen." ”
Teng Zirui didn't seem to understand, scratched his head, and nodded confusedly.
"Your Highness has a blessing today, the peach blossom crisp made by Weichen must be better than the one in the palace."
"Isn't it better than the one in the palace?" Teng Zirui glanced at the small kitchen with some expectation and swallowed.
Everyone paid attention to the peach blossom cake, and no one thought about it, how did Huantong know that the pastries he made were better than those in the palace. If An Xi had noticed it at this time, it might not have unfolded like that in the future.
Teng Zirui seemed to remember something, his expression suddenly became serious, he walked to the side of Phantom Tong, grabbed his sleeve and pulled it, and said, "Brother Phantom Tong, I have something to tell you." ”
After speaking, he glanced at An Xiruo again. A little hesitant, looking at Phantom Tong and wanting to speak.
Huantong immediately understood what he meant, this matter could not be said in front of An Xiruo.
"Come with me to the kitchenette, I'll do it while you speak."
