She held the teacup in the air, groaned slightly, put down the teacup again, raised her eyes and said: "Concubine Ling said with a smile, I am naturally not worried about who the fifth princess will lose to in this talent competition, but the current situation makes Concubine Niangniang also understand, if the princess is really sent over, it means that I am showing weakness, if we have shown weakness, then it is useless for us to do more things, I am afraid that it will further promote the atmosphere of the barbarian advocates, and the anti-war faction among the barbarians will be even more sad." ”

Chu Nian frowned slightly, and after a while, he said: "The most important thing at the moment is that no princess can marry into the barbarians, but I am afraid that this matter still needs to be helped by Concubine Niangniang and Concubine Liang in the palace." ”

Chu Nian didn't say the second half of the sentence, but Concubine Ling, who was as smart as Ling, flashed a look of understanding in her eyes.

"Wait." Concubine Ling suddenly stood up, with an inexplicable smile on the corner of her mouth, she beckoned, and the palace maid on the side suddenly stepped forward, holding a brocade box in her hand, "This is the pastry made by the palace maid in my palace, I heard that the county lord got a cook from the queen mother a few days ago, and the palace wants to know, with my palace maid's skills, can I change the kitchen lady in the county lord's mansion?" ”

And now Concubine Ling said that she was exchanging her palace maid for Chu Nian for a cook, but in fact, she removed this gunpowder that would explode at some point from Chu Nian's body.

Concubine Ling nodded, and watched Chu Nian leave with the brocade box, then she turned her eyes to look at the palace maid beside her, and said with a cold face: "In the future, you will be the person of the unequaled county lord, if I know that you have a little dissent, be careful of the lives of your family." ”

When Chu Nian returned to the Vanilla House, it was already noon, and everyone should have lunch at this time, Wu Liang was biased, staring at the early summer sun and standing in front of Chu Nian's bedroom with an anxious face, he was still carrying an old book that looked a little yellow, seeing Chu Nian's figure, he put the book behind him and hurriedly greeted him.

Chu Nian took a few steps forward, his gaze looked past him to the book he was hiding behind him, "Have you found the annals of the Ministry of Officials?" ”

His impatient appearance made Chu Nian couldn't help grinning, and said: "What's the hurry, I just entered the palace just to understand the situation, anyway, the day is still in time, today is not enough, tomorrow I will discuss with the two Niangniang, besides, I look at Concubine Ling is not as anxious as you." ”

"I'm almost exhausted this morning, you can do it, I'll go back and rest first."

Wu Liang's footsteps stopped at the gate of the courtyard, and he saw Chu Nian take a few steps forward and hand over the brocade box in his hand to Wu Liang's hand, "This is the pastry that Concubine Niangniang rewarded, you take it back to your master and they will also taste it, you have worked hard today." ”

Mei Xiang walked in front of Chu Nian, and only then did she look at Wu Liang's back suspiciously and said, "Mr. Wu, what's wrong?" Why did I look at him as if he had lost his soul like this? ”

"Miss A-Qing made a pastry in the morning, and someone from the palace said that Concubine Ling was going to leave A-Qing, lady, is this true or false?"

Hearing this, Mei Xiang's eyes widened suddenly, but when she saw Chu Nian walking towards the bedroom without looking back, she hurriedly followed and said in surprise: "Lady, Concubine Ling's cook, will her skills be better than Ah Qing?" ”

Mei Xiang looked at Chu Nian inexplicably, and couldn't come back to her senses for a while.

The Hu family was also regarded as covering the sky in the court earlier, but the personality of the adult of the Hu family is similar to that of Su's father, they are all scheming but too lazy to intrigue, and their eyes are full of this cool country, in comparison, people's hearts are a little worse.

Chu Nian frowned slightly and looked at the history of the Hu family, and after a while, she found the name of Hu Tongzhi, she pinched the roster of the Hu family and thought for a while, before she got up, Mei Xiang outside was walking in.

Chu Nian frowned slightly, and saw Mei Xiang leading the little girl in her hand, at this moment the little girl was biting her fingers and looking at Chu Nian, and the voice coming from a small mouth was still beautiful.

Looking at this innocent and lovely appearance, Chu Nian really couldn't associate the little doll in front of her with the little devil who killed people without blinking before, but at this moment, she inexplicably felt that there was nothing wrong with killing people without blinking, at least she herself would not be injured.

But I saw the little girl pouting and said, "Su Su just arrived, my sister is going out, does my sister hate me?" ”

But Xiao Susu obviously didn't buy it, she looked up at Mei Xiang who was full of expectation, her face seemed to be a little entangled, but after a while, she also made up her mind and said: "No, since my sister took me back, you must not leave me alone at home in the future, otherwise I'm afraid that I can't help but want my bugs to come out to play, and when the time comes, I accidentally hurt other people, and my sister will beat me." ”

She took a deep breath, "Then you will follow me today, but if you delay my business, you will have to go back to your master, can you think clearly?" ”

Chu Nian pursed her red lips and raised her eyes to look at Mei Xiang, "Then I'll take her with me, and you take care of the house." ”

Chu Nian turned around and walked towards the door, and Xiao Susu behind him looked at Mei Xiang for a while, and hurriedly jumped up and down to follow.

Chu Nian frowned, lowered his head and looked at Xiao Susu seriously, "You are already a big child, does a big child need his sister to hold his hand to walk?" ”

"No, I don't."

Xiao Susu seemed to be afraid of returning to Li Le's side, so he hurriedly shook his little head, "Su Su, don't leave your sister, sister don't abandon Xiao Susu." ”

It wasn't until the carriage reached the door of the ministry that a well-dressed young man came out of the ministry, and when he saw Chu Nian's carriage, his bright eyes flashed with a little surprise.

"Wushuang County Lord, Kong Changle, the servant of the official department, this is polite."

The young man smiled unexpectedly, "Yes, thank His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for his promotion, otherwise the qualifications of the following officials are not qualified to enter the Ministry of Officials." ”

The concubine is the concubine and the prince is infinitely favored
