Chapter 56: Too Much of a Coincidence
Li Jiangwei was hesitating to reveal some rumors to Yu Yongyi. It's about the spiritual realm and the Heavenly Machine Camp, and it's not something she can do directly. And the emperor was revealing to her intentionally or unintentionally, don't let Yu Yongyi be involved.
Seeing that she was embarrassed, Yu Yongyi smiled and said, "It's okay if you don't say it." ”
Looking at his reluctant smile, Li Jiangwei was a little distressed.
"It's not that I don't trust you......"
"I know. It's just that I feel a little uncomfortable...... I want to help you and Sister Huang do something......"
"You will stay away from the court, but also to help the imperial concubine...... Is that right? ”
"In the palace, concealment and deception are the norm, and only then can we survive. But to you, I don't want to hide it. Yu Yongyi put away her smile and nodded solemnly, "Yes, I stayed away from the court for the sake of the imperial sister, so I thought about escaping to do business." To be a prince who is not presentable, to be a prince who is not suitable to be an emperor. Do you know why my father doesn't like the royal sister? ”
"Isn't it just dislike?"
Yu Yongyi shook his head, and his always gentle eyes suddenly became cold.
"My father is jealous of the identity of the emperor's sister and woman."
"Fearful? The emperor's fledgling wings, why is the emperor jealous? Or are you afraid of a woman's identity? Li Jiangwei was surprised: "This ...... It doesn't make sense! ”
"Like you, I don't think it's possible. There are a lot of contacts, and I can always feel something strange. Before the emperor became the emperor's sister, at most he ignored it and was not favored. After being canonized as the imperial concubine, it always seems that she is looking at someone through the imperial sister. ”
"That's not a fear......
As soon as Li Jiangwei's words came out, one clip after another flashed through her mind. She grabbed Yu Yongyi's sleeve and asked anxiously, "Ah Yi! Is Princess Heshou the emperor's sister or sister? ”
"My aunt is older than my father."
"Princess Heshou was not canonized as the imperial concubine? What happened back then? ”
Yu Yongyi didn't expect Li Jiangwei to ask this question, he thought for a long time before he said slowly: "I heard the concubine mention that the former emperor did have the intention of appointing his aunt as the imperial concubine. At that time, the court did not recognize the woman as the prince, and the aunt took the initiative to withdraw from the competition for the prince because of physical discomfort. ”
"When did this happen?"
Yu Yongyi closed her eyes and thought for a long time, "I don't remember clearly, it seems that after the death of the horse, my aunt was too sad and hurt the roots." ”
After listening to Yu Yongyi's answer, Li Jiangwei frowned deeply, and faintly felt that there was some connection.
"My father had a very good relationship with my aunt, and when I was still the crown prince, I often visited my aunt who was recuperating in the suburbs of Beijing. After his father ascended the throne, he still took care of his aunt from time to time. How do you ask about this? ”
Li Jiangwei smiled and said, "It's just curious." ”
"Do you doubt your father?"
Li Jiangwei hurriedly shook her head and said, "It's not a suspicion, but I think it's too much of a coincidence." If the horse lived, the eldest princess would not be sad and sad, and the emperor would not be able to become the crown prince smoothly. If the eldest princess dies after being crowned the crown princess, it will take a lot of effort for the emperor to become the crown prince. ”
"Indeed, ...... of what you say"
Li Jiangwei didn't want to discuss this issue in depth with Yu Yongyi, lest he be depressed again because of the relationship at home. got up and pulled Yu Yongyi, and walked outside the private room.
"Where are you going?"
"There should be a cooking contest today!"
"Hmmm......"
Li Jiangwei turned around and smiled at him, and said, "Shangyuan Night, didn't you invite me to watch the game?" I'm rarely free, don't take me there? ”
"Bring it!" Yu Yongyi hurriedly replied: "Of course I bring it." ”
Li Jiangwei let go of her hand and took a step back.
"Then, you will lead the way."
Chu Yongyi booked a box near the square on West Street early in the morning, and she didn't need to squeeze with others, and she could see the scene of the cooking competition. When I was about to invite Li Jiangwei, I happened to bump into her to go to Shangyang. At this time, Li Jiangwei took the initiative to mention it, and he couldn't be happier.
"You should only recognize Xia Xia?"
"Hmm."
"That's a pity, Xuan Xia entered the semi-finals yesterday, and I can't see her today."
"Then let's look at other houses, didn't you say that famous restaurants from all over the world have come? It is bounded by Suizhou in the north, Xinzhou in the south, Luoqi in the west, and Chunzhou in the east. It's a great time to gather materials! ”
At the mention of materials, Li Jiangwei's eyes suddenly brightened.
"Don't you think it's funny!" Li Jiangwei, who was sitting in the carriage, said excitedly: "The cultural customs of different places are different, and if you encounter a piece because of your cooking skills, just think about the sparks that may be scratched!" Don't you think it's amazing! ”
"That's ......" Yu Yongyi smiled helplessly: "Fortunately, I booked a box, even if you jump up happily, no one will look at you more." ”
"I won't jump up!" Li Jiangwei frowned and retorted: "It's not a child! ”
"You're kind of a kid right now."
Li Jiangwei snorted, too lazy to refute.
Since the establishment of the cooking competition, the whole West Street has become particularly lively. It was even more lively than the day of the Shangyuan Lantern Festival. Yu Yongyi took Li Jiangwei into the box he had booked. Compared with the box of the Zhuyin Pavilion, there is a little less literary atmosphere, and the overall decoration can even be said to be a little cheesy.
Pushing open the large window in the box, a fragrance penetrated from the window into the nostrils of Li Jiangwei and Yu Yongyi.
"It's ...... The taste of roasted leg of lamb! ”
Li Jiangwei looked over and saw a man in a strong suit roasting a leg of mutton, even from a distance, Li Jiangwei could recognize the leather decoration on the man's body under the reflection of the sunlight.
"It's actually a leather coat, it's so rare."
"I heard that the people over there often wear leather clothes."
"Years of State...... Chopping Wind Restaurant? Twin brothers? Will the one below be the elder brother Pleiades or the younger brother Fuxing? ”
"Oh?" Yu Yongyi was surprised: "Do you recognize?" ”
"I don't recognize it." Li Jiangwei looked intently at the man cooking food in the square, for fear that he would miss it if he was not careful, "When I went to the Mingke Building to discuss matters with Mr. Lao, I happened to hear them report the information of each restaurant to Mr. Lao. I heard that this restaurant is best at making wine, and their wine is a must. ”
"Want to try it?"
Thinking of her drunken appearance, Li Jiangwei hurriedly shook her head, "I don't want to!" Not at all! ”
"Can't drink?"
"I can't drink it."
Yu Yongyi looked at Li Jiangwei's back thoughtfully, and silently poured a cup of tea. This is not a high-end restaurant, and there is no good tea to offer. Yu Yongyi took two sips and silently put down the teacup.
"It is worthy of being a famous restaurant in the state! I was really selected! Li Jiangwei looked at Yu Yongyi and happily shared: "I don't know if they will meet with Zhu Xia!" Leg of lamb and roast goose, think of that scene! ”
"Wipe your saliva ......"
"Let's go to the Takeyin Museum in the evening!"
"Want to eat roast goose?"
Li Jiangwei nodded happily.
"Ju Xia recently told the Zhuyin Pavilion that I didn't have to eat, but there was a drama in the Mingke Building."
