Chapter 156: Refreshments and incense

"Get up." Xiaozhuang said in a harmonious voice, and asked the eunuch next to him to bring a chair and give Baolan a seat.

Bao Lan then greeted Prince Gong Chang Ning and Princess Crescent Moon before taking a seat.

Aunt Su Mala and Huai Sleeve also got up to salute Baolan. Baolan took two steps forward, took Aunt Su Mala's arm with her own hand and said, "Auntie, don't salute me, I can't stand it." But he didn't glance at the sleeve of the bosom that was giving salute with him.

The crescent moon saw the clue, rolled her eyes at Baolan, and stepped forward to sit beside her with her sleeve in her arms.

As soon as Bao Lan sat down, she smiled with a smile in her eyes: "It's still lively here from the old ancestor, and the concubine hasn't entered the courtyard yet, and the old man heard laughter from afar." It's not as good as our side, we can't even find anyone to speak, and we really suffocate someone. As she spoke, Bao Lan raised the handkerchief in her hand and smiled to herself.

When Xiaozhuang heard this, he smiled faintly and said, "Give this plate of dim sum to Lan Guiren to taste." The words fell, pointing to the stamen cake and said to the bamboo green beside him.

Zhu Qing agreed, picked up the white jade plum blossom porcelain plate and gently placed it on the sandalwood tea table beside Baolan.

"Thank you, Ancestor, for the reward!" Baolan has always liked sweets, and when she looked at the pastries on the plate, she saw that the shape of the dim sum was carved into the shape of peach blossoms with a mold, and the pale pink transparent skin wrapped the yellow and clear filling in the middle, and the multi-petal peach blossoms that bloomed like flowers were fresh and lovely.

Baolan couldn't help but admire: "The dim sum here is so exquisitely made by the ancestors, the concubines are reluctant to eat it." ”

Xiaozhuang smiled: "How about you taste it." ”

"Uh-huh." Baolan nodded again and again, carefully pinched a piece and put it in her mouth, the skin was soft and melted in the mouth, a light peach blossom fragrance slowly overflowed in the mouth, and the filling inside was chewed with the scent of beans in the middle, but there was a soft fragrance I don't know what it was.

"Oops, it's delicious! The concubines have eaten those dim sums, but they have never tasted like this! Bao Lan couldn't help but admire the snack in her mouth without waiting for the snack in her mouth to swallow.

As he spoke, he picked up another piece and put it in his mouth, and after eating two pieces in a row, Baolan frowned and asked: "I only ate the flavor of beans, but I didn't taste what was soft and salty." ”

Xiaozhuang said: "It's already very good that you can taste the bean aroma, and the remaining golden is crab roe cake, which is really not easy to eat." ”

Baolan couldn't help but admire: "The small kitchen here of the ancestor is really powerful, such an abrasive pastry can be made, teach me another day, and I will make some when I go back." ”

Xiaozhuang shook his head lightly, looked at the sleeve on the side with a sideways smile, and said: "I don't have such a fine cook here, I was brought here by the girl to honor me, she knows that I don't eat much on weekdays, so she often makes some pastries to make refreshments for me." ”

After Xiaozhuang finished speaking, he picked up the tea cup and thought about the tea powder, took a sip, and his eyes swept over Baolan's face. Seeing that Baolan heard that it was a tea made by Huai Sleeve, she didn't react, but picked up the teacup and took a sip as if she didn't plan to eat it again.

The corners of Xiaozhuang's lips hooked, the expression on his face changed slightly, and he gently put the tea cup in his hand back on the table.

At this time, everyone else shifted their attention to the stage, the lyrics of this "Peony Pavilion" were told to the crescent moon some time ago, and the crescent moon can now fully understand the play, and whispered to Huai Sleeve while listening.

Xiaozhuang saw the crescent moon in his eyes, and nodded slightly with a smile.

The drama sang to the sixth scene of "Sorrow", and when the upright Xiaosheng Liu Mengmei and the harlequin talked about the section on buying a book, this time it was nearing the end.

As soon as a crisp gong sounded on the ground, I heard the eunuch outside whispering: "The emperor has arrived ......"

When everyone heard this, they hurriedly got up and prepared to salute, and the actors on the stage and the masters who played and played were already kneeling on the ground.

Kangxi bypassed the door screen of Yuhuashi, walked into the courtyard, first asked everyone to flatten down, walked straight to Xiaozhuang, and knelt down on one knee to salute Xiaozhuang.

Xiaozhuang stretched out his hand to hold Kangxi's arm and helped him up, and said with a smile: "I'm really lively here today, there is no one on weekdays, I want to come today, but I came neatly, even the emperor came." It seems that today, I am blowing a good wind, and the lively sound of this singing has reached you. ”

Kangxi said with a smile: "The ancestors have always liked to be lively, so let's all come together, isn't it just what you want?" ”

When he was talking, he saw the snack on the table, picked up a piece and put it in his mouth and chewed it, nodding while chewing: "Well, I'm hungry, this snack tastes good!" ”

Xiaozhuang turned his head to Huai Sleeve and smiled: "You Ming'er made another delicious food, but you have to send it quietly, and you dare to smell the fragrance of each one." ”

Huai Sleeve only smiled and said nothing, Kangxi raised his face to look at Huai Sleeve and asked, "This is what Miss Huai did?" Well, it's really delicious, I'll eat a few more pieces! I know that you often come to the ancestors, so you can do it another day! ”

Xiaozhuang smiled and deliberately said with disgust: "If the emperor likes to eat, ask Huai Yatou to send it to you, the place where she lives is closer to your Qingning Palace, and she comes to rub me." ”

Kangxi swallowed the snack in his mouth and shook his head with a smile. Pointing to the sleeve of the sleeve and said: "This girl is an infatuated heart, she is used to following the ancestors in the past, and there is only you in her eyes, I don't have this blessing!" ”

In the last sentence, Kangxi deliberately accentuated his tone, and looked sideways at the sleeve standing behind Xiaozhuang with a drooping face, only to see that her face was slightly red, and her eyelashes were lowered deeply.

Kangxi saw that there was a drama excerpt on the side, and when he picked it up and looked at it, he saw that it was "The Peony Pavilion" and praised it with a smile: "It's a good play, but can you understand this drama?" After that, he only looked at the crescent moon beside Xiaozhuang.

The crescent moon looked unconvinced, and pouted: "Hmph, I know that the emperor's uncle looks down on me, you just have to take the word 'what', I can understand it!" With that, he puffed up his cheeks unconvinced.

Kangxi smiled when he heard this: "I haven't seen you for a few days, but my ability has grown." Don't you ask your sixth uncle to listen to you sentence by sentence? Chang Ning is also here, Bacheng is doing this, every time you watch a play, your mouth is the sweetest when you call you Uncle Six! And all the people laughed.

Su Malagu defended the crescent moon with a smile: "If it was in the past, the emperor would be true when he said so about the crescent princess." But today, the crescent princess really understands the drama herself, so she still discussed it with her master! ”

"Huh?" Kangxi showed a slight surprise on his face, his eyes looked at the smug smile of the crescent moon, and his eyes swept over the face of his sleeves by the way.

Xiaozhuang doted on the crescent moon to his side, stroked the black sideburns of the crescent moon and said: "This child has gradually become sensible, and knows that he has to study some words and books. ”

The crescent moon was embarrassed to be said, and she leaned her face on Xiaozhuang's shoulder and coquettishly. Suddenly remembered, he grabbed Xiaozhuang's arm and said, "The old ancestor wants my imperial uncle to thank my master, these are all taught by the master." ”

Xiaozhuang also nodded again and again: "Indeed, the girl has contributed a lot." Deserve to be rewarded, deserve to be rewarded! With that, he looked at the sleeve behind him.

Seeing that he had already mentioned himself, he couldn't avoid it before he slowly walked out from behind Xiaozhuang, and slowly saluted and said: "No thanks, it was the princess who carried love, and the slave and maid should be dedicated, these are just some dramas, and it is even more difficult to get into the elegant hall, but it is just to guide the princess's interest, and to know more words, it is not worth mentioning." ”
