Chapter 207: Late Night Hot Soup

Bai Ling slept until midnight, and when he woke up, he still felt very sleepy.

In the past few days, Qu Guifei's mindfulness training has gradually found some feelings, and she no longer needs some guidance every day like some time ago. It happened to be the three-day break of the Anhu Flower Viewing Party, so Qu simply adjusted the time of the mindfulness class to once every three to four days, so that the time could be placed in the middle of the two consultations.

She held her forehead and looked at the zenith in a daze, although it was true that she could continue to sleep until tomorrow, but at this moment, the feeling of hunger dispelled the sleepiness slightly, Bai Ling hesitated for a moment, but decided to get up first and find something to eat first.

Bao Yuan made a rare return to the east side hall tonight to rest, and when Bai Ling got up, he happened to enter the house with an empty bowl that would be cleaned.

"Sister Bao Yuan, did she go to feed the cat again?" Bai Ling asked a little sleepy-eyed.

"Yes, I haven't been there for a while," Bao Yuan said, "You don't think it's strange, and I don't know where these cats find food on weekdays, even if they don't feed it for a few days, it still feels oily and slippery...... I also saw a few bamboo futons near Qinyuan tonight, all of them look new, I don't know where these cats came from, they are more enjoyable than people. ”

Bai Ling rubbed his eyes and smiled, of course this is not strange...... Because there have always been people who feed cats in the palace, but Bao Yuan always has time to go out at night, so he has never met him.

Bai Ling got up and put on his coat, poured some water directly from the kettle into the palm of his hand, and then slapped it on his face, and the cold water made people wake up instantly.

"Hey!" Bao Yuan on the side immediately made a disgusted voice, "If you are too lazy, if you want to rub your face, call someone to get some hot water......

Bai Ling was about to answer, "Don't bother", Bao Yuan had already put on her shoes and went out to call someone to bring a basin of warm water, and by the way, she also asked for a bowl of noodles and specially told her to ask for a small bowl.

"Big bowl, huh?" Bai Ling added with some uncertainty, "I haven't eaten in almost a day. ”

"Eating a big bowl of noodles at this time, you still can't sleep at night?" Bao Yuan frowned and said, "You are still the daughter of the Imperial Doctor's family, and you don't know that you are easy to accumulate food if you eat too much before going to bed?" ”

“…… But I'm still growing. ”

Bao Yuan glared at Bai Ling lightly, and said in an irrefutable tone, "Listen to me." ”

Bai Ling sighed, she bent up, gently swayed her shoulders and moved her body in the open space between the bed and the table, seeing Bao Yuan like this, she could only reply, "Okay, listen to Sister Bao Yuan." ”

After a while, the people came in with hot water, Bai Ling quickly stepped forward to take the basin, and very consciously re-washed her face, if she continued to delay at this time, Bao Yuan would probably directly take a towel and stir her face......

However, warm water is indeed much more comfortable than cold water.

"Niangniang has already asked Granny Shu to send someone to send the post over in the afternoon." Bao Yuan took off his coat on the side and hung the gown on the hanger not far from the bed, "Granny Shu asked me to bring you the news, you can go up the mountain before the day after tomorrow, but the road up the mountain has been blocked in the past few months, and you can only walk up, although the mountain is gradually getting hot these days, but the mountain is still cold, you bring more clothes to avoid catching a cold......"

Bai Ling couldn't help but sigh on the side, "It's so fast." ”

"Didn't you say the sooner the better?" Bao Yuan glanced at Bai Ling, "Granny Shu and I have actually wanted to find out the bottom of this person for a long time, but Niangniang, the old lady, and Concubine Ning are not interested, and they all say that let her make trouble, let her make trouble, and in the end, there will be a harvest of ...... It's been so long, I really haven't seen where the sky is. If it weren't for the fact that Niangniang wanted to take the little prince back this time, I don't know how long I would have to endure it. ”

"Maybe I think it's okay to fight with such a rootless and powerless person from a humble background," Bai Ling echoed, "Concubine Ning and the old lady should think like this, I guess." ”

"What if I lose my identity, if I know which thing in the palace has revealed the clothes that my mother was going to wear at the last garden party, I will be the first to go up and tear her mouth!" Bao Yuan said angrily, "This fox is too, she has been pestering us since she entered the palace, and she has to stick to it to see what she does, and our mother is a master who doesn't stretch out her hand and don't hit the smiling person, every time Ning Concubine Niangniang leaves, she can only let this shameless person come over and mix up her face." ”

"Eh," Bai Ling was a little surprised, "did she come to Chengqian Palace often before?" ”

"Yes," Bao Yuan frowned, "You came late, Niangniang was in a bad mood when she was pregnant, and she refused all visits, and no one in the palace except the emperor and Ning Concubine Niangniang saw anyone, so it was purified." ”

Bai Ling was silent thoughtfully for a moment, "...... No wonder I always hear her squirt and succumb to her sister. ”

"Phew!" Bao Yuan took a sip gently, "Call us Sister Niangniang, she is also worthy!" ”

There was another knock on the door outside, and Bai Ling went to open it again, this time bringing a small wonton with chicken soup.

"Today's noodles in the small kitchen are all eaten, and the masters wrap a few wontons with the remaining dough......" The man lowered his head and said with a little timidity, "The slave maid thought that Si Yao was still hungry, so he ordered them to make it first, if Si Yao didn't like it, the slaves and maids would go to the imperial dining room again......"

"No, the ravioli is good." Bai Ling took the tray, "Go down, thank you." ”

Bao Yuan had to wake up early tomorrow morning, so she fell asleep quickly, and the sound of her even breathing came from behind her, making this somewhat too quiet night a little more popular.

In the second half of the night, Bai Ling sat at the table with a bowl, with a book in front of him that he hadn't finished reading before, and a dozen wontons were quickly eaten, but the soup was still very delicious.

Listening to the whispering of this silent night, Bai Ling suddenly remembered a description of Murakami Ryu, who once said that the delicious soup was terrible.

"I thought about him for a long time. But when I got home, I drank the soup that my mother cooked. The soup is so warm and so delicious. It made me forget my friend, his pain, his troubles...... I forgot everything and just drank my soup. ”

Bai Ling thought about this paragraph, holding the bowl, and forgot to drink the soup.

She looked at the flame that flickered in the candlelight on the table, and at this moment she suddenly felt that the tiredness and anger of her body had dissipated. Although she will still be the medicine of Chengqian Palace when she comes tomorrow, and she will show a smile and cold eyes to many people, those have nothing to do with this night. Perhaps this is the nature of the pleasure of staying up late, many people can only be themselves in the middle of the night, no matter ancient or modern, all people who carry shackles are the same.

This thought made Bai Ling couldn't help laughing for a while, and after laughing, she secretly thought in her heart that when she saw Bai Yi the day after tomorrow, she would also tell him this wonderful idea......
