After the tea ceremony, the Empress Dowager Shen knelt peacefully, Shen Shen accompanied her on one side, and on the other side, it was Luo Xiang who was sitting.

Sicha's palace maid bowed over, but was waved away by Empress Dowager Shen: "You go down." ”

Turning to Shen Shen, he smiled, "You haven't eaten the tea I ordered yet?" Today, a light that will make you touch Luo Xiang, and I will taste it too. ”

As he spoke, he really began to sift tea and boil water, boil tea and divide tea.

Looking at Empress Dowager Shen's skillful movements, Shen Shen was greatly surprised: "Do you still have this kung fu?" How did I not know? ”

Even in her previous life, she really hadn't heard that their mother, who danced knives and guns, could make tea.

You must know that the first emperor liked to drink tea the most, and once Concubine Chen sat at the tea table, the whole person would become quiet and even holy, so the first emperor went to Xianxia Palace, drank tea a hundred times, and did not drink once.

Under such circumstances, tea was once prevalent in the palace. Even her little Penglai has a few more little palace people who secretly practice ordering tea, and Rixin is moved by her thoughts, and she almost took her to learn to cook tea and make tea.

It was still Empress Dowager Shen's long sleeves and a flick of her long sleeves, and she was able to escape the catastrophe.

But it turned out that Empress Dowager Shen herself was behind everyone's back, and she actually practiced such a good tea ceremony!

"What do you know? In the palace, you only know twelve out of ten; The things in the world, you are afraid that it will be difficult to explain even one in 10,000. ”

Empress Dowager Shen poured a cup of tea with her own hands and pushed it in front of Luo Xiang: "You try it." ”

Luo Xiang didn't make a sound, put his hands in his sleeves, bowed slightly, and then respectfully took the teacup, took a sip, put it back, and then praised: "This tea is very good." ”

It is more perfunctory than perfunctory.

Shen Shen's eyes widened, he looked at him curiously, he reached over to the Empress Dowager Shen and brought another cup of tea to the front, tasted it, and blinked: "The queen mother's craftsmanship is very good!" ”

Hearing her "Queen Mother" exit, Luo Xiang subconsciously looked up at her, as if confused.

"The matter of peony, the mourning family heard about it. King Ning should have sent someone to chase him, right? At this moment, I'm afraid I can't catch up, but there is news? In which direction did the Zhu family go? ”

Empress Dowager Shen is like an old lady from an ordinary family, and she started a family routine with the old man of the Luo family opposite with great interest.

Luo Xiang also smiled plainly and told her: "The Zhu family is in Qingzhou, so King Ning asked people to chase after him to the east at the beginning." I heard that in the second half of the night yesterday, I caught up with the little lady of the Xue family named Xue Yourong, but I didn't see Zhu Man.

"The little lady of the Xue family screamed loudly in wrong, and King Ning had no evidence, the Zhu family's ritual was just a pair of live geese, and the people next to them couldn't say anything. I had to let them go.

Later, I checked it, and said that Zhu Man took the caravan of the Zhu family and followed a group of Persians to the Western Regions, and rushed out of the city early yesterday morning. Then King Ning's men went to the northwest to chase after them.

"However, it is necessary to cross the border of Western Qi. The people who chased down from King Ning's side had neither a survey to leave the country nor a festival to send an envoy. If you leave the country for private purposes, you will be prohibited by the laws of the Western Qi government. I expected that His Royal Highness King Ning would be empty this time. ”

"He wants to exchange peonies for Olympic aid, and it depends on whether the kid is willing to be at the mercy of him as a flag. Princess Ning's family is Geng Jie's violent temper, and no matter how docile and respectful Peony is, she is also arrogant. How could he be so humiliated by him? I'm surprised if I don't turn my face! ”

Empress Dowager Shen was discussing idly, and glared at Shen Shen again: "You sisters and sisters shout how close you are on weekdays, but you are all blind and deaf, and you don't even notice such a big thing!" What use do you say Peony wants you brothers and sisters?! ”

Knowing that Nan Xi and Zhu Man had escaped smoothly, Shen Shen was happy to relax, listening to Empress Dowager Shen's scolding, he couldn't help but smile: "It's just a place to hang out and play on weekdays, where do you want to get this?"

"What's more, although I have a good relationship with my sister, it is only a matter of the past half a year. With her prudence, how could someone like me be so smug that she was on her mind? Brother Lian Wang and Brother Xi Wang are both men, so naturally they don't think about it so much.

"The Queen Mother or Aunt Ning wants to blame us, and we have to listen. It's just that my sister has always had an idea. Her parents still can't control it, let alone those of us who only see each other once in three or two months? ”

Pushed it clean.

Luo Xiang stroked his beard and laughed, shook his head and said to the Empress Dowager Shen: "Let's go, no matter what happens to the county lords and county kings, don't be angry." ”

After a pause, he said to Shen Shen with a smile: "The county lord only needs to pay attention to the queen mother's diet and medicine bait." The Queen Mother is old, and if something like this happens, I am afraid that I will be uncomfortable for a while. ”

This hint was very obvious, Shen Shen hurriedly agreed, and got up with a smile: "Why don't you stay for dinner?" I went to the chef and ordered a few good dishes. ”

But he was stopped by Empress Dowager Shen.

The slave standing on the side received the signal from the Empress Dowager Shen, nodded, and waved silently, causing everyone in the hall to slowly retreat. There were only four of them left in the hall.

"The fact that Peony followed Zhu Man away is related to the face of the royal family, and it is better to hide it for the time being. Since Princess Ning has already called her illness to the outside world, then this year, let Peony serve at home. ”

Empress Dowager Shen said lightly.

At this time, Luo Xiang also received a look of surprise, and respectfully owed to accept the queen mother's decree.

"As for why Peony suddenly left at this time, it seems that the mourning family is only afraid that it has something to do with the recent actions of Han Zhen and King Ning, right?"

Empress Dowager Shen said, looking at Shen Shen meaningfully.

Shen Shen, who honestly planned to play the wooden man, only then understood why the Empress Dowager Shen wanted to leave herself down to discuss the "military affairs" with Luo Xiang, and couldn't help but first wrinkle her nose at the Empress Dowager Shen and make a grimace, and then replied in a proper manner:

"Yes. Han's study was burned down, and a lot of correspondence was lost. Then on the night of the winter solstice, he secretly entertained more than a dozen former military dependents. A few days ago, presumably Luo Xiang also knew that Han Zhen's eldest son, Han Tang, met frequently with King Ning in private. It is conceivable that there will be some big moves during the New Year's Festival. ”

Empress Dowager Shen hooked the corners of her lips slightly, turned her eyes to Luo Xiang, who had already been stunned, and joked with a smile: "What?" Does Luo Xiang think that the mourning family will casually accept a brave and unscrupulous female doctor as a righteous daughter? ”

Luo Xiang was stunned, and hurriedly bowed respectfully to Shen Shen: "The old minister is disrespectful." I always felt that I underestimated the county lord in the past, but when it came to the end, I still underestimated the county lord. ”

"Actually, you still underestimate her, but you don't know it yourself."

Empress Dowager Shen was obviously in a good mood, and even laughed crow's feet in the corners of her eyes. But in a blink of an eye, she put away her smile again and said in a low voice:

"Luo Xiang, people, it's time to do it. Are you ready to do it? ”
