Chapter 225: For the Country and the People
"Hiss......" Lu Yao gasped dissatisfiedly, squinted at people, and said, "This time is not that time, don't I still know how to cook at that time?" Is it better to be different from the past? ”
Gu Cong looked at her with her head held high, her thin lips bent up, and he heard an extremely annoying voice behind him
"Miss Lu has made so much soup, it is really virtuous, but I don't know, is there a share of this palace?"
Lu Yao turned around, and saw that the prince came slowly, wearing a long sword at his waist, and it seemed that he had just returned from patrolling the sentry post.
She smiled and said, "If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't dislike it, he naturally has." ”
What a sleek person Gu Ziyan is?
The clear soup and little water, he just took a sip, and then began to praise it repeatedly, saying that Lu Yao's cooking skills are exquisite, which is not trivial.
In addition, he is eloquent, and the casual praise is a lot of flowers, which is in extremely strong contrast with the praise of the group of big bosses and coarse people in Fang Cai.
Gu Congyuan stood with his hands in his hands, only quietly watching him brag, and did not show any dissatisfaction.
Stretching out his hand and not hitting the smiling person, it seems that Gu Ziyan can indeed get benefits by going around like this on weekdays, at least in terms of winning people's hearts, he has taken advantage of it.
Hearing this, Lu Yao couldn't help but feel a little ashamed, she raised her hand to sort out the gap in the broken hair on her forehead, and whispered to Gu Congyuan: "Is he talking about me?" How does it feel like a description of the palace chef......"
"You think so, that's it." He whispered in his ear.
"Seeing that Miss Lu is so virtuous, this palace can't help but think of Qinghe." Gu Ziyan squinted slightly, "It's a pity that the princess's ten fingers don't touch the spring water, and she is not good at cooking at all." ”
Lu Yao secretly took a sip in his heart.
The crown princess was selected by a show girl, how could she not be good at cooking? Gu Ziyan's dislike for the crown princess was too obvious, but he was afraid that he wouldn't touch anything that Zhao Qinghe made on weekdays.
"The jade dew paste made by the crown princess last time was good, and I think her cooking skills are still good." Lu Yao said lightly.
There was a hint of disdain in the prince's expression, but it was fleeting, and he said: "No matter how good it is, it can't be compared to Miss Lu, my palace now lacks a chef, it's better to ......"
"In front of this king, you want to dig the foot of the wall?" Gu Congyuan interrupted directly, and said coldly, "Brother Huangtian's shameless skills are really beyond the imagination of this king. ”
This is really unkind, Lu Yao gently tugged at his sleeve and said, "Don't say it......"
Seeing that Gu Ziyan's forehead was bruised, but he still held himself decent, and said with a smile: "The second brother still can't speak like this, and this palace doesn't care about you, but I'm a little curious, how can you marry a good girl like Lu Yao with such a strange temperament." ”
Gu Congyuan's hand behind his back slowly clenched, and he said in a deep voice: "Who the person next to the pillow is, it all depends on his ability, and if you are not satisfied with the identity and ability of the crown princess, it has nothing to do with us...... But the royal brother actually wants this king's guest to cook for you, is he bullying her, or is he slapping me in the face? ”
"Hahaha!" Gu Ziyan laughed heartily, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Second brother, you are too serious, it's just that you have a good mouth, where do you see where you have been?" You and I are brothers, why do you have to fight? ”
"Really?" He lifted his chin proudly, like a lake
's eyes are unwavering.
Gu Ziyan still smiled: "Naturally." ”
"Why did you quarrel with this good soup?" Lu Yao pinched his eyebrows with a headache, almost wiped the smoke off his eyebrows, and said distressedly, "You don't have much time to rest, do you?" Hurry up and take a break and don't waste time. ”
Because the relationship between the two highnesses is very tense, together with the soldiers of the Tianshu Camp and the Xuanji Battalion, they also see that the other camp's camp is not pleasing to the eye, and they have to compete for soup to drink more than anyone else.
So the training ground became chaos......
And the camp tent does not stop, after all, the post is limited in space, and there is only one main tent, so Gu Congyuan and Gu Ziyan will not look up and see each other even when they are taking a lunch break.
The air was filled with the smell of gunpowder about to burn, and when the two of them looked at each other, they could feel the sparks crackling in the air.
Lu Yao tried his best to reduce his sense of existence, served carefully beside Gu Congyuan, and poured tea and water.
When the prince saw that Princess Cong was pouring tea herself, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Yo, what's going on?" Why did Miss Lu do it herself, shouldn't she let someone come? ”
Lu Yao held the teacup in his hand and paused, "It's just a trivial matter, I'll do it myself." ”
The prince's tone was extremely teasing, Gu Ziyan had already expected what he would use, and his heart was extremely depressed, and he raised his eyes very unhappily to look at people.
Sure enough, the prince stabbed coldly: "Second brother, you said that you are really down-and-out now, you were going to die and live and reconcile with other people's road girls, it is easy to reconcile and difficult, and now you are difficult to ride a tiger." ”
"It's none of your business." Gu Congyuan frowned irritably.
"It's true that it has nothing to do with me, but the royal brother really can't help but remind you......" The prince slowly raised one leg, his legs overlapped, full of comfort, "Don't do stupid things next time, if you have a big fart, you have to be reconciled, and the girls don't have such a big temper as you, are you the princess?" ”
Gu Congyuan's palm holding the teacup shrank slightly, and the white porcelain teacup let out a fragile moan.
Seeing that the situation was getting more and more anxious, Lu Yao only hoped that the prince would shut up quickly, otherwise a group of soldiers outside would tear up with their teeth bared like this, which would be really ugly.
She coughed lightly, as if her face was a little unsettled.
"What exactly do you want to say?" Gu Congyuan slammed the teacup on the small table, and the tea splashed everywhere, "You and the crown princess raise their eyebrows, do you have a deep relationship?" ”
The last thing Gu Ziyan wanted to say in front of others was the crown princess.
Zhao Qinghe came from a humble background, was humble and light-hearted, and had no ambitions for the city, like a delicate flower in a greenhouse, not suitable for staying in the East Palace at all.
But at the beginning, after Gu Congyuan took the initiative to marry Lu Yao in order to relieve the emperor's suspicion, the prince sneered at him, and King Cong would repay him, and put him behind his back, transferring the emperor's suspicion from King Cong to the prince, Gu Ji suspected that the prince colluded with the family to intend to rebel......
In this way, Gu Ziyan could only marry an ordinary woman as a concubine step by step, and cut off contact with the concubine of the Xungui family, so as to dispel the emperor's doubts.
"Qinghe and I, naturally husband and wife are in love." Gu Ziyan gritted his teeth with a smile and said, "It's not like you, second brother, after you get your wife out of the palace, no matter how you jump to beg your father, you can't marry back." ”
He stretched out his hand, pointed to Lu Yao, and said softly: "Look, I can only give it now."
The girl of the road is a guest secretary's false position, what is this? The palace felt aggrieved for Miss Lu. ”
Gu Congyuan's forehead was full of green tendons, and he said in a deep voice: "What did you say?" ”
was afraid that the two of them would face each other with swords in the next second, Lu Yao hurriedly raised his voice and said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, thank you for your kindness, but Lu Yao is happy with King Cong, and he is willing no matter what." ”
“…… Stupid woman. The prince drank tea to cover up, and scolded the couple a few words in his heart.
Gu Congyuan has always been a master who treats others in the way of others, and when he saw that the prince was deflated, his heart was a little happier, but this was still far from enough, he was beating the draft, and planned to review the Ziyan banquet again, which made people completely silent.
At this moment, a thin figure suddenly appeared in front of the tent, carrying a large bag and a small wrap in his hand.
"Your Royal Highness, look at what the lower officials have brought!"
The person who came was Lord Yin, it is estimated that Yin Huilan's marriage has been settled, and he can be regarded as a person who is in good spirits on happy occasions these days, his mental state is very good, and his eyes are bright.
The prince immediately smiled and said with a light smile: "I smelled the aroma from afar, what a delicious meal this chef made by the chef in the house?" ”
Lord Yin said hesitantly: "This is not made by the chef of our house, this is a meal made spontaneously by the people of Qingyuan, and I came to give it to the lower officials, and the lower officials thought that the two highnesses and princesses had never eaten the food made by the people...... Please don't dislike it, it's all the people's hearts. ”
Lu Yao was stunned for a moment: "Did the people send it spontaneously?" ”
"Not bad." The little guy with chopsticks replied, "Our adults are dedicated to the sake of the people and have fun with the people on weekdays, and no one in the Qingyuan realm complains about my family!" ”
Master Yin slapped the little guy's head and scolded: "Go, flamboyant, and I'm not afraid of embarrassing me in front of the two highnesses!" ”
The prince hesitated before moving the chopsticks, and saw that Gu Congyuan ate without hesitation, and reluctantly picked up a chopstick's green vegetables.
Lu Yao saw Gu Ziyan's expression and said with a smile: "These are all things that Lord Yin eats on weekdays, so there must be no mistakes." ”
The prince breathed a sigh of relief at this time, if it weren't for his face, he would almost have to take out a silver needle to test the poison......
The subordinates who came to the city lord's mansion shouted: "My lord, someone knows that you are not in the mansion, and specially sent the pastries here!" ”
"Ouch, I can't eat it, I can't eat it, let everyone keep the food and eat it for yourself!" Lord Yin hurriedly walked out, had a polite conversation with the people outside the door, and shirked for a while before persuading the people to leave.
The little girl smiled and said to Lu Yao: "The princess must be wondering, why do so many people like my family, right?" ”
He said proudly: "My family can confront the Rouran people across the river, and can repair the roof for the people by themselves, I don't know how many good things have been done over the years, who would not like such officials?" ”
Gu Congyuan's expression moved slightly.
I didn't see it before, this sharp-beaked monkey-cheeked Qingyuan City Lord was so loved, Lu Yao thought that he was also a greedy and afraid of death like Lord Zhang, but he didn't expect it......
She was surprised: "I really didn't know about these things before, and Lord Yin didn't say a word about it, so I was really too modest." ”
Lord Yin laughed and his beard trembled: "The lower officials only want to have a clear conscience, as long as the people are smooth, I will be better off!" ”
