At this time, if you have another bottle of wine, it will be perfect.

However, it is impossible for Xiao Liyan to drink alcohol today.

He came out to protect Ruan Lingwei, if he was really drunk and had an accident, he would have no place to regret it.

Xiao Liyan was not in a hurry, he ate slowly, first finished the dishes on the small table, and then took something else from the food box.

Li Mo thought that his prince would call him to taste it, but in the end, he could only watch his prince slowly eat the food sent by Ruan Cairen.

The guards originally thought that the braised beef brought out by the prince was very delicious, but the smell of the food sent by Ruan Lingwei aroused the gluttony, and they suddenly felt that the braised beef in their hands had no taste.

"Lord Wang, is the fried snail delicious?" Li Mo asked with a worried face.

"Of course it's delicious." Xiao Liyan smiled and bowed: "But this king has already finished eating, and there is no more." ”

At this moment, Xiao Liyan feels that his vision is very good, the woman he likes is not only smart and capable, but also has a superb cooking skills, which is really a blessing.

Of course, Ruan Lingwei didn't give him something to eat, and he wouldn't say anything, but as long as she cooked, he liked it to be made for him.

That girl has such a good craft, she can't be cheap.

"Lord Wang, there are still a lot of snails in the paddy field next to you, why don't you take someone to pick up some more?" Li Mo said with a smile.

"Okay." Xiao Liyan smiled and nodded.

Of course he was very happy, he liked it very much, he picked up the snails, he could ask Ling Wei to help him fry them.

As for the others?

No way!

"Lord Wang, there are too many snails in the field, we didn't bring a basket with us today, I don't know what to put back with it?" Li Mo hurriedly ran over and said helplessly.

They had just fished up a lot of snails, and they were all piled up on the grass beside them, so big that there was nothing to bring back.

After hearing this, Xiao Liyan couldn't help but glared at him: "Stupid, didn't you bring out a few pieces of cloth and want to spread them on the ground for this king to sit on, just use those pieces of cloth as a burden." ”

Li Mo suddenly realized when he heard this, and hurriedly smiled: "Yes, yes, or the prince is thoughtful, and the slave will order those guards to wrap the snails in those pieces of cloth."

Xiao Liyan looked at Li Mo's distant back and couldn't help but shake his head.

Li Mo has been with him for many years, and the two have grown up together since childhood, what is thinking in the heart of that stupid man, doesn't he know it?

To please him so much, of course, I want to follow the light and taste the taste of fried snails.

Time passed, and the valley became cooler and more comfortable.

Ruan Lingwei and Concubine Qing had finished their lunch and were sitting by the stream drinking tea, the stream was murmuring and the fragrance of flowers was bursting, which was very comfortable and comfortable.

"This time, I don't want to go back to the palace, the palace is too boring, why do you think I couldn't think about it at the beginning, and I want to marry the emperor if I want to die and live? Now that I am in the palace, it is like being in prison, even if the palace is a little freer, it is not a change of soup, only when I come out, I feel comfortable. Concubine Qing puffed out her cheeks and said pitifully.

"It's a pity that after a short time of comfort, we have to go back again, when I think of the anticipation when I first came, and the helplessness when I went back, it's better not to come out, Sister Meilian thinks so?" Ruan Lingwei asked with a smile.

"You girl is like a roundworm in my stomach, I think you know everything." Concubine Qing asked with wide eyes.

"That's because sister, you are a temperamental person, and you never hide anything, it is all shown on your face, and I can naturally guess one or two." Ruan Lingwei said with a smile.

"You just say I'm too stupid and unscheming." Concubine Qing pursed her lips and said.

"That's not it, if my sister is not smart, how can she live like a fish in water in the palace all these years? Even if you have the help of your mother's family, you have to support yourself to do it, otherwise you will be instigated. Ruan Lingwei glanced at Concubine Qing and said with a smile.

Concubine Qing smiled after hearing this: "That's natural, this person, I just can't live too aggrieved, especially a person like me, I am a person who would rather be poor and affected than angry."

Ruan Lingwei smiled after hearing this: "It seems that my sister and I are really all the way." ”

"It's not that a family doesn't enter the door, we are also like-minded." Concubine Qing paused slightly when she said this: "I don't know what your sister concubine will do with Wen Zhaorong and Mei Cairen." ”

Ruan Lingwei smiled after hearing this: "Wen Zhaorong is the queen's person, there is no doubt about this, most of the concubines will not stay alive, because Wen Zhaorong will not bite the queen back, in this way, in the eyes of the concubine, she is a waste, as for Mei Cairen, she will definitely survive, and the concubine will rely on her to bite the queen." ”

"Sometimes I think about it, the life in the palace is too boring, I used to like the emperor, for fear of doing something to disgust him, so I have been suppressing my temper, if others provoke me, it is just a matter of turning a blind eye, but it is impossible."

When Concubine Qing said this, her face was full of coldness: "If anyone dares to provoke me, I will fight her to the end, and I will never stop calming people." ”

Ruan Lingwei smiled when she heard this, Concubine Qing is going to completely let herself go.

In this palace, if people have no desires, no desires, and no fear, they should be able to live happily.

"Our Jiang family now has a lot of military power, in addition to the Jiang family's former lineage, my father has to hand it over, in order to dispel the emperor's concerns and protect the entire Jiang family, at that time, he will ask the emperor to allow me to go out of the palace to recuperate for a period of time on the grounds that I am seriously ill, and I will naturally not have to go back." Concubine Qing smiled.

"Well, speaking of which, it is to exchange most of the Jiang family's soldiers and horses for your freedom, in fact, it is to protect the Jiang family." Ruan Lingwei said in a low voice.

"Yes, others will only think that my father and brother are willing to give everything for me, and the emperor's thinking is quite simple, and he will not confront us-for-tat, nor will he continue to target my Jiang family afterwards." After Concubine Qing finished speaking, her face was full of smiles.

She'll soon be free, a year or two at most.

"When the time comes, I will beg the emperor to let you go out of the palace with me." Concubine Qing said with a smile.

Ruan Lingwei nodded when she heard this, she had the holy decree given by Xiao Liyan in her hand, if nothing else, she could marry Xiao Liyan in a few months and leave the big cage in the palace completely.

However, before that, she couldn't tell anyone, not even Concubine Qing.

"After we leave the palace, you just live with me in the Jiang family's courtyard in the capital, the courtyard is very large, the scenery is excellent, the most important thing is that you can often contact my fifth brother, as the saying goes, the building near the water gets the moon first, he hasn't married yet, maybe it's cheaper for you." Concubine Qing said with a laugh.
