Chapter 194: True to the Name

While the two were talking, the maids' medicinal diet recipes had also been written and handed over to Poria to put away.

After a few people retreated, Qin Ranran came to Lu Chengan's side and said in a low voice: "The queen's letter said that Your Majesty planned to clean up the ministry, and the official secretary was in a hurry to ask to see Cheng Engong, and I heard that the son of the official department Shangshu killed a common man on the street and robbed the people's daughter. ”

"Oh, that's bold!" Lu Chengan's face became gloomy, "Your Majesty has long seen that the official book is not pleasing to the eye, and he actually dares to let his heir be so frivolous." ”

Qin Ranran hurriedly relieved him and said, "Also, don't be angry, I don't dare to say it." ”

Lu Chengan took a few deep breaths before saying, "You continue." ”

Qin Ranran looked at his expression, and then said after thinking about it: "Your Majesty proposed to ask Song Wenqing to be a servant of the Ministry of Officials, and he had a lot of experience, but he was angrily reprimanded by the Household Department Shangshu in the early Dynasty for leaning towards the government and the opposition, and he had a heart of disobedience. ”

Lu Chengan's face became even more ugly, but he didn't get angry anymore, but said lightly: "Tell everything said in the letter." ”

"Your Majesty overrode public opinion and made Song Wenqing a waiter in the Sanpin Officials' Department, and Qi Maoyang, the son of General Weiyuan, a waiter in the Military Department. The previous paperwork has not yet been issued, but the matter has already been decided. ”

"That's all, everyone said that there would be more news to me."

Lu Chengan nodded, took the pen and paper that Qin Ranran put on the table to write the prescription, took the pen and wrote a few letters and handed them to Lu Jiu, and asked Lu Jiu to send an urgent report to Lu Yi to Shangjing.

Qin Ranran also wrote a reply to several people, and also focused on replying to Fu Jia, and at the end of the letter, she emphasized that she wanted Fu Jia to help her pay attention to a shop in Shangjing.

Seeing that Lu Chengan had been in an anxious mood, Qin Ranran thought about it, then went to the kitchen for a turn, and finally picked out the newborn mung bean sprouts, only took a little sesame oil and rice vinegar and mixed it, and took a plate of scalded vermicelli, added spicy oil and rice vinegar and mixed it.

"In a moment, these two dishes will be brought to the table and eaten by the general." She told the maid who delivered the food, then turned around and went back to the main courtyard, replacing the tea that Lu Chengan was accustomed to drinking with Kuding that cleared away heat and fire.

Lu Chengan didn't know that his tea had been changed, and after taking a sip, the bitter taste that spread to the root of his tongue made him can't help but squirt out the tea in his mouth, hitting Ahri in front of him.

Ahri screamed on the kang with an aggrieved face, and Poria quickly took a clean cloth towel to help Ahri wipe it clean.

It licked its messy fur until it lay on the kang with its tongue out, wailing.

"Ahri must have tasted the bitterness of his body......" Shisu said weakly, standing aside.

Qin Ranran happened to go to see the wooden box sent in by Bai Jiawang, and didn't see the scene where Lu Chengan sprayed the tea all over Ahri's body, and when she heard Zisu's words, she only thought that Ahri was greedy and secretly drank Lu Chengan's tea, and while gently blaming it, she took a small piece of nest candy and stuffed it into its mouth.

"Ranran, I don't think I need to drink such a hot tea." Lu Chengan also broke a piece of sugar and stuffed it into his mouth, "I'll drink some jasmine-flavored tea you configured." ”

"Good medicine is bitter, you have too much fire these days, drink some to reduce the fire, and you are afraid of bitterness like a child." Qin Ranran said angrily, but seeing Lu Chengan's frowning appearance, she felt a little distressed, so she said, "Mai Sui, go and bring my tea jar and brew it for the general." ”

Mai Sui nodded, took the tea jar and handed it to Banxia.

"By the way, after lunch in a while, Mai Sui, you take Banxia and Shiso Poria to put those white porcelain bottles into a wooden box, one box holds four different porcelain bottles, and let the peony make a little red tassel and tie it to the box." Qin Ranran continued to admonish.

Mai Sui answered, helped set up lunch, and then retired with the others.

"Sister Maisui, don't we have to wait for the general and his wife to eat?" Banxia followed behind Mai Sui and asked curiously.

Mai Sui replied with a smile: "When the general comes back, we try not to move forward, Madame doesn't need us to serve most of the time when she eats and sleeps, we just need to listen at the door, Madame will call us if she has something." ”

Banxia nodded hurriedly, went back and instructed the other three, and then returned to the door to wait.

After a while, Lilac came over and whispered, "Sister Mai Sui said, you still have something to do in a while, let me do it for you, you go to lunch first." ”

Banxia heard that her heart was warm again, according to what her mothers taught her when she was in Xiufang, she thought that she would not have time to eat lunch at noon today.

Inside the house.

"Try these, although it is relatively light, but it is suitable for these days, if the dry fire in the heart has been accumulating, it will be harmful to the body." Qin Ranran helped Lu Chengan clip a chopstick and mix mung bean sprouts.

Lu Chengan put it in his mouth and said, "It tastes good, it is indeed more appetizing than mutton and chicken." ”

He ate for a while, looked at Qin Ranran's expectant gaze, and suddenly an idea came to his mind: "You did this?" ”

Qin Ranran nodded proudly: "How is it?" ”

Lu Chengan answered her with practical actions, and the two dishes were eaten by Lu Chengan, who doesn't like to eat vegetables.

As soon as he put down his chopsticks, Lu Yi said outside the door: "General, everyone has arrived." ”

"So fast?" Lu Chengan wiped his hands with a handkerchief, stood up and said, "Let them wait in the front hall, and I'll go over." ”

He turned his head to look at Qin Ranran: "The people I'm looking for are here, go and see?" ”

Qin Ranran got up with a smile, called Lilac outside the door to come in and help tidy up her clothes, called Lu Jiu, took Lilac, and walked to the front hall together.

This was the first time that Lilac had shown her face in front of her master, and she was also a little excited in her heart, and she also wanted to behave well in front of her master, so she mustered up the courage to ask, "Madam, do you want to make two cups of tea and send them over later?" ”

Qin Ranran thought for a while: "You will go in and count how many people there are, if I let you serve tea, you will come according to the number of people." ”

Lilac immediately nodded vigorously.

Seeing this, Qin Ranran smiled and said, "Don't be too nervous, just go and soak the Biluochun I brought from Shangjing." ”

There were fourteen or fifteen sturdy men standing in the front hall, they stood there quietly, even if they were acquaintances, they did not greet each other, just like soldiers who had received military orders, only holding on to the small position under their feet.

"I've seen the general, I've seen the lady."

At the moment when Lu Chengan and Qin Ranran entered the house, more than a dozen people knelt on one knee together, their movements were uniform, and although their voices were not loud, they were very calm.

When Qin Ranran saw these dozen people, she couldn't help but exclaim: "This sentence alone is enough to see that the prestige of the Moxi Army is worthy of its name." ”

When these dozen or so people heard this, their eyes looking at Qin Ranran suddenly changed.
