More than ten miles away from Liwan Village on the outskirts of the city.

In the early hours of the morning, the night was still very dark, and suddenly a strong wind blew, and the wind made the windows frame and rattle.

The village woman sleeping in her bed was awakened by the wind and shocked by the sound of the windows not being closed. The village woman lit the rusty oil lamp in the corner, holding the oil lamp in one hand and caring for it with the other

Keep the wick and don't let the wind blow out the oil lamp.

"The wind is really strong tonight, I hope it won't rain so hard tomorrow." The village woman complained as she went to close the wooden window.

When the wooden window was closed, the village woman placed the oil lamp in her hand on top of the wooden cabinet for the clothes.

She carefully put the oil lamp away, then turned around and saw her daughter who had woken up and said: "Bailan, you are most afraid of thunder at night, I don't know when this thunderstorm will stop tonight, sleep with the oil lamp, you don't have to be so afraid." ”

The dim light shone on the village woman's face, illuminating her face with the radiance of maternal love.

It turned out that my mother got up and closed the window and lit the lights because she was afraid that she would not sleep well and that she would be afraid.

Bai Lan rubbed her nose with her hand, because her mother's action moved her nose a little sore.

As a daughter, Bai Lan loves her mother very much, and immediately said, "Mother, my daughter has woken up and can't sleep, my daughter went to the flower shed to see the flowers." ”

The wind whistled outside the door, and the unstable wooden doors and windows clanged in with the wind, and the wind penetrated through the cracks in the walls, blowing the bean-sized flame on the oil lamp so much that it almost went out several times.

Bai Lan got up from the wooden bed, got dressed, and looked at the lamp that was about to be blown out by the wind, and her sleepiness had long been gone.

The village woman grabbed her daughter and said, "Bailan, don't go out if you're afraid of thunder, I'll go to the kitchen to get coals." ”

Bai Lan smiled and replied, "Don't worry, it's just a thunderstorm, if my flowers are drenched in the rain, then we will lose a lot." ”

The village woman said, "The flower trellis is covered with thatch, so it won't get drenched, so don't go out in such a strong wind." ”

In the house, just when the mother and daughter were struggling to get out, suddenly the wooden door was kicked open, and the cold wind blew in through the door.

The mother and daughter looked over in surprise at the same time, and saw a figure appear in the night, like a ghost.

Bai Lan screamed, and the village woman was even more frightened.

"What's it called!" The man who appeared at the door suddenly spoke, "If you want to die, call out." ”

In the dim light, the mother and daughter saw clearly that it was a woman, staring at them with a pair of cold eyes. As soon as these words came out, the mother and daughter suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

After a night of cold wind and thunder, it rained, but it was only showers. After dawn, the sky was still transparent blue, with white clouds floating on it, the brilliant sunlight pierced through the clouds and shone on the earth, birds fluttered and chirped, and the snow on the leaves was melting.

Qinghui Garden, Jian Xiu went to the early court in the morning. Liu Piaoyi sat on the kang and watched Hua Ying tidy up the house and wipe the tabletop. Suddenly, at this time, there was a sound of Suo Suo from outside the windowsill of the room.

Liu Piaoyi was curious, and got up and opened the window to check.

It turned out to be the green parrot that had arrived

She stood on the edge of her windowsill.

The bird, which usually doesn't care about her, often flies away by itself, and then flies back, and it will find food for itself.

Flying away this time, Liu Piaoyi felt as if it had been a while, and he didn't know where it had flown away.

Seeing it, Liu Piaoyi was immediately very happy, stretched out her hand, and the bird flew to her arm, flapping its wings.

Walking to the table, when Liu Piaoyi sat down, the bird also flew down from her arm on the table, a pair of round eyes saw her, and the bird spat out a short sentence, "Niangniang...... Mother......

Empress? Liu Piao was surprised, what kind of mother is it?

Being spit out by the birds, Liu Piaoyu laughed heartily.

Chunlin and Hua Ying also forgot the movements of their hands when they looked at it, looking at the interesting bird and smiling happily.

After the early dynasty, the emperor went to have breakfast, and during the meal, Zhou An personally brought a soup from the imperial dining room and sent it to the emperor.

Zhu Yijun's eyes were full of doubts, "You eunuch from the imperial study went to the imperial dining room to cook?" ”

Zhou An lowered his head and hurriedly responded, "The slave recently learned a soup and wanted the emperor to taste it." ”

The emperor smiled at the corner of his mouth, "The imperial study is well served, what's the matter, you want to transfer to the imperial dining room?" ”

Zhou An hurriedly complimented, "The slave is very good in the imperial study, but when the slave saw this soup, he thought of the emperor and wanted the emperor to taste the deliciousness." ”

Zhou An craned his waist and said, "You can't drink this soup in the palace." ”

These words made the emperor curious, and he glanced at the soup bowl, "Open it and take a look." ”

The emperor was curious to see what tricks Zhou An was playing, and his eyes kept staring at Zhou An and put a bowl of soup in front of him.

The red soup in the soup bowl was very thick, the color was eye-catching, and the fragrance was fragrant, which really aroused Zhu Yijun's curiosity, and he immediately tasted it with a spoon.

As soon as he took a bite of the soup, Zhu Yijun was stunned for a moment, looked at the spoon in his hand in disbelief, and was surprised that it was too delicious, so he tasted it again.

The emperor's stunned appearance was fully seen by Zhou An.

"What soup?" The emperor asked, raising his eyes.

Zhou An smiled vaguely and deliberately sold a pass, until the emperor was a little impatient, and then smiled

said, "Your Majesty, how about it, this soup can close your mouth."

Taste? ”

Zhu Yijun pretended to be careless and nodded, "The soup is indeed a good soup, but where did it come from, there is no imperial chef in the palace who can make this soup, who did you learn it from?" ”

Zhou An smiled slightly, "The ingredients for this soup come from the people, and the slaves got it from Liwan Village on the outskirts of the city. ”

"Liwan Village?" The Emperor was surprised.

"Yes, Your Majesty, the name of this soup is Peach Blossom Dew, and it is specially made by the flower girl Bailan girl in Liwan Village. She is the only one who can make this soup, and what the slave offered today was made by Miss Bailan, and the slave asked for a copy and brought it back to the palace, and only after it was hot did it be served to the emperor to drink. ”

Zhou An subconsciously stared at the emperor's expression, and seeing that the emperor was listening with great interest, he continued, "If the emperor eats it hot while Bailan is just ready, it tastes even better than this." ”

Zhu Yijun frowned, and once again looked carefully in front of him

The soup in the bowl immediately said without thinking, "Zhou An, accompany me to Liwan, I want to see the Bailan girl." ”

"Your Majesty, go now?" Zhou An pretended to confirm again.

The emperor couldn't help but lose his temper, so he wanted to see what the woman who could make soup looked like, "What are you waiting for, let someone come and wait for me to change my robe." ”

After an unnatural smile on the corner of Zhou An's mouth, he bowed down and said, "Liwan is more than ten miles away on the outskirts of the city, so the emperor still asked the commander to bring some brocade guards to protect the safety." ”

The emperor waved his hand and said busily, "Then what are you waiting for, go and bring Zhang Jianxiu to me." ”

On Jingcheng Street, Liu Piaoyi walked around the shops accompanied by the maid Chunlin. I want to buy a delicate headdress to wear at the Queen Mother's birthday banquet.

I was satisfied with one of them, and I was about to go to another house to see, but as soon as I walked out of the store, I saw a familiar figure among the pedestrians on the street.

It was Su Qingshan, his steps were fast, and he went to the gate of the city.

She is not clumsy, how can she recognize the wrong person?

Su Qingshan went outside the city, what was he doing?

Liu Piaoyi suddenly remembered that when she had finished breakfast today, someone flew in the window of her room, and a piece of paper was inserted into the dart, and there was a letter written to her on the paper, which she immediately burned after reading it.

With doubts, Liu Piaoyi was falling into deep thought,

Suddenly, a familiar voice came from my ear, "Yi'er, what are you thinking so low?" ”

With a faint doubt in his voice, Liu Piaoyi raised his eyebrows, and turned around when he heard the sound, it was Ling Xinan who didn't know when

Standing at the door of the jewelry shop.

Liu Piaoyi chuckled, "It's nothing, it's just that I just saw several exquisite headdresses in this jewelry shop, and I want to buy which one." ”

But she was looking at the passers-by just now, who did she seem to see?

Ling Xinan was thinking deeply, but he didn't realize that he had been looking at Liu Piao in a daze for a long time.

Liu Piaoyi was a little uncomfortable, and coughed lightly in embarrassment.

Ling Xinan, what's wrong, why have you been watching

I? Liu Piaoyi asked, a little worried that he had just seen himself looking at Su Qingshan, which made him wonder, so he asked like this.

Liu Piao's voice called him by name, instantly pulling Ling Xinan's thoughts back to reality.

He shook his head, chuckling perfunctorily, and at the same time secretly glad in his heart, she spoke to herself as if it were back then.

Outside the city, the snow has not yet melted, and although the sun is good, there is still white everywhere. A young girl was carrying a horse on the muddy and snowy road, and the girl saw a place of snow that had not yet melted, and it was very beautiful to be white and tender. So he dismounted and ran into the snow, not afraid of the cold, and grabbed the snow with his hands.

The woman didn't notice that a horse came along the road, and the man on horseback was stunned when he saw the woman, and immediately dismounted and walked towards her.

The moment Li Yuyan saw him, her pupils dilated unconsciously, and then she turned around, subconsciously wanting to escape.

Zhang Chifeng raised his eyebrows, and quickly grabbed Li Yuyan's wrist and stopped her movements.

Although Li Yuyan struggled hard, the gap in strength between men and women was already huge, and Zhang Chifeng was a martial arts practitioner, Li Yuyan struggled for a long time, and the wrist holding her still didn't move.

"Miss Li, why are you so scared when you see you? I'm not the man-eating monster. Zhang Chifeng raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile.

Li Yuyan was tired of struggling, and knew in her heart that even if she struggled again, she was afraid it would be useless, so she simply quieted down and stared at Zhang Chifeng.

"When you go back to Liaodong, you will complain to my father, of course I have to run faster, otherwise, you won't see it all."

Zhang Chifeng paused, a playful smile tugged at the corner of his mouth, and said meaningfully, "Lord Chief Soldier is to let me find out what you are doing when you often go out of the capital next time, and I will report it when I go back." ”

Li Yuyan's eyebrows were cold, and her heart trembled. The words that my father often explained suddenly came to my ears, "Yan'er, a girl's family rarely wanders outside, especially when she goes to a strange place, it is not safe, and it is very chaotic everywhere." ”

Zhang Chifeng squinted his eyes, looked into the distance, and said, "Where are you going?" ”

Li Yuyan came back to her senses and smiled dumbly, "Go to Liwan, you are by my side, why don't you go with me, that way, even if my father knows that I ran so far, won't you be by my side." ”

Zhang Chifeng was curious, and asked with a smile, "What are you doing there?" ”

Li Yuyan gave him a blank look, "You said you want to go with me?" ”

Zhang Chifeng hesitated, "If Miss Li wants to go, then I will do my best to protect it, what can happen to me by your side, I can protect you, and I will never let you lose a hair, believe me." Zhang Chifeng smiled confidently, and the words he said made Li Yuyan's face feel hot.

Li Yuyan tugged at his arm and said coquettishly, "Then won't you make a small report to my father then?" ”

The woman was so delicate, Zhang Chifeng suddenly blushed, and said vaguely, "No, what...... Yes. You trust me. ”
