Chapter 9: The Feast

"Ah Weng, I don't need your service, go down and rest."

Xue He waved his hand at him, he smiled and saluted, and quietly retreated. When he left, Xue He quietly took out the charm from his arms, shook it slightly, and the little rabbit silently turned into a human form.

"I'm going to eat that!"

Xue He pointed to the big herring that was more than two feet long in the middle of the table.

The little rabbit agreed, picked up the bowl and chopsticks and sandwiched a piece of white fish meat for her, carefully picked the thorns, and then fed it to her mouth.

"Hee-hee, it's delicious."

As long as there is something delicious, Xue He quickly forgot about his snubbing and focused all his attention on the food in front of him.

After dealing with the most important affairs at hand, the soldiers left one after another, and then saw Zhao Wenlie, the king of the small county, suddenly come to the palace.

He had already changed out of his military uniform, and at this time he was wearing a regular dress of moon white satin, and respectfully crossed his hands and saluted:

"Father, today is my mother's birthday, I personally prepared a banquet and invited my father to ......"

Unexpectedly, he was only halfway through the words, but Zhao Zheng interrupted him with a wave of his hand: "Don't go." ”

The refusal was very decisive and left no room for error.

Zhao Wenlie was stunned for a moment, and said a little crampedly: "Mother knows that my father doesn't like publicity, so I only invited two side concubines to accompany me. ”

"Go down."

King Ning always had a cold face, and he didn't even look at him, so he turned around and went to the inner room.

The little king frowned, his mouth opened and he wanted to persuade again, but he saw the old eunuch at the door bowing and said softly: "The prince has a lady to serve, so the third master should go back." ”

Zhao Wenlie glanced at the inner room hatefully, and then left angrily.

Qin Bai accepted the disguise technique, picked up the bead curtain and entered the inner room, and saw that a maid had been added to the house at some point, and he was feeding Xuehe food.

"The spell is good."

Qin Bai commented lightly.

"That's it! The spell taught by my master ......"

Xue He was staring intently at the chicken leg in the rabbit's hand, and inadvertently answered casually, and suddenly realized that something was wrong:

"Huh?!"

"And you're not a goblin?"

Qin Bai sneered, looking at the chicken on the table that had been eaten most of it, and the fish that only had a bone left.

I knew it! From virtue to taste, this is completely a little fox!

Xue He said seriously: "Deliberately tricking me? You're bad! ”

Qin Bai said with a smile: "Although I don't dare to say that my disguise technique is profound, I think I am quite clever, and you can see through it at a glance, which shows that you are not an ordinary person." ”

"Ugh."

Ling's eyes slowly turned, secretly thinking about the purpose of his words.

There was no malice on his face and he asked, "You tell me the truth, how old are you?" ”

"Ten, eighteen."

Guilty.

"Say it again."

“…… Sixteen. ”

Still weak-hearted.

"Huh?"

"Alright! Fourteen! ”

Qin Bai sighed, looking at his expression and not believing it at all. In his eyes, the current Xuehe is completely a little goblin who is still shallow, and he is only one or two hundred years old at most.

Although I don't know what method was used to cover up the demonic energy, the demon is the demon.

He reached out and pulled her little ear, deliberately pulled it gently, and said angrily: "It's better to hide your little tail carefully, so that no one can pull it out!" …… So dishonest, if you are a goof, don't expect me to help you lie. ”

What's going on? How did he think I was a vixen?

Xue He blinked his innocent big eyes inexplicably, and his little brain turned for a long time: "But I don't have a tail!" ”

I don't believe it at all.

"It's all said it's not a monster!" Xue He was so angry that he cried.

"Good, good."

Qin Bai didn't take her seriously, picked up chopsticks and stuffed her ass into her mouth: "Eat more of this, it's good for the coat color!" The coat color should be bright and shiny to be more cute. ”

Snow River spit out with a "bah":

"It's all said that it's not a monster where the fur came from! You big idiot! I'm! ”

"It's hard-mouthed!"

"Grave light! Pinch Clean! ”

The two were joking, and saw the figure of the old eunuch reflected on the gauze curtain, and said in a low voice: "Lord, the princess is here, waiting in the hall." ”

"What is she here for?"

Qin Bai's voice changed suddenly, and he muttered to himself: King Fang Cai seems to say that today is her birthday? Alas, women are really troublesome.

The old eunuch's voice was soft and humble: "I refused to leave after persuading for a long time,...... Why don't you take the time to meet? ”

Qin Bai sighed, changed back to Zhao Zheng's appearance, and touched her little face with pity: "I'll go back when I go." ”

"Meow."

Xue He learned to meow with great sorrow.

Zhao Zheng smiled, got up and picked up the curtain and went to the front hall.

"Awen!"

Xue He suddenly stopped the old inner eunuch who turned around and was about to leave: "You come here!" ”

The old inner supervisor stepped forward, lowered his eyebrows and bowed deeply: "Don't dare, Mrs. can call the old slave's name directly, and the old slave Zhang Mazi." ”

"You ......"

The corners of Xue He's mouth twitched: "Are all the people in charge of your palace called pockmarks?" It's okay if you don't take a name away, are you still so lazy? ”

Unexpectedly, the old inner supervisor smiled slightly, and recited a poem in his mouth:

"Mai white hair laughs at the spring breeze, and the rain is like smoke in the sound of Zigui."

Xue He froze with his mouth wide open.

As the saying goes? People can't look good, the master is in the people! This pockmark is definitely not another pockmark!

"Awn, sit."

Xue He moved over the chair and pushed it in front of him with a shocked expression.

"Mrs. Xie, the old slave doesn't dare."

He was still smiling, and looked very kind, although the chair was in front of him, he stood still and did not dare to cross the rules in the slightest.

Seeing that he refused to sit, Xue He got down from the chair by himself, squatted in front of him, held his face in both hands and said, "Ah Weng has been in the palace for many years, right?" ”

"Mrs. Hui's words, for more than 30 years, I have been following my master to fight everywhere, and later came to the fiefdom Yancheng. When the princess Yu did not enter the palace, the old slave had been serving the prince for many years. ”

"What kind of person is the princess?"

The old inner eunuch Zhang Mazi smiled slightly: "The prince has been fighting outside all the year round, and thanks to the princess taking care of all the affairs in the palace on weekdays, the whole palace is harmonious and peaceful." ”

Phew, old fox, I didn't say anything.

Xue He flattened his mouth, thinking that this old internal supervisor was afraid that he had read countless people, and he had already cultivated to perfection. But then I thought about it: with his identity, with the lustful temperament of King Ning, I am afraid that I don't know how many pampered and arrogant upstarts I have seen, if it is not for the eyes and the ability to speak, it will be difficult to live to this day.

She has only been here for a few days, and she has seen the majestic princess, the fierce guard, and the old fritter inner supervisor in front of her.

As soon as I was distracted, I saw a few decently dressed maids coming in from outside, dividing the bead curtain to the left and right, and the princess in full costume suddenly appeared in front of me. Yu Miaojin still has a cold face like the last time she saw her, and her eyes are arrogant and there is no room for anything.

Xue He suddenly remembered what Master said: The more you pretend to be forced, the more you show that your heart is fragile; It is precisely because I am too afraid of other people's doubts that I will deliberately whitewash myself as powerful.

The boiler is right.

Hawkers, just help Qin Bai, then I'll accommodate you a little.

Xue He stood up and stepped aside looking timid.

Then more than a dozen maids came in, removed the remnants of the table and put new food and wine on it. In particular, the large white porcelain cup with gold rim in the middle is actually a steaming lotus root pork rib soup. I don't know how long it took to cook, the fragrant soup was milky white, and the meat was wrapped in the sweetness of lotus root, which made Xue He's eyes glow.

As soon as you smell it, you know that it took a lot of work, and the taste must be amazing.

Xue He immediately selectively forgot how the princess coaxed her into the palace in the first place, and how she worked for so many days in the Huanyi Workshop, and now she only wants to trick the Gu soup into her mouth first.

What, no avail? No, that kind of thing, it doesn't exist in the first place.

Yu Miaojin, who was like an iceberg beauty, straightened the chair of the main seat as if she hadn't seen her, and after a while, she saw Zhao Zheng walk in with an unhappy face, as if she had just been ravaged by someone, and her face was mourned with a capital letter.

It seems that this round is clearly the princess who has the upper hand.

Zhao Zheng sat down in the middle, and the princess also sat down next to him with a spring breeze on her face. Zhao Zheng immediately called Xuehe to sit on the other side, and the meaning of exclusive pet was very obvious.

When Yu Miaojin was in front of Zhao Zheng, she showed a completely gentle and virtuous side. Not only put away the eyes that she used to look at when she was the housemother, but she actually showed a little little bit of a little woman's shyness:

"The concubine knew that the prince was working official business, so she specially cooked the prince's favorite soup with her own hands. If the prince doesn't dislike it, let's take a bite. ”

As he spoke, he actually got up himself, filled half a bowl of steaming soup from the white porcelain cup that Xue He was thinking about, lightly opened his lips and blew it slightly, and handed it to him.

"Let it go."

Xue He swallowed and looked at him with a sad expression.

The prince's expression was very unhappy.

Xuehe didn't want to complain about Yu Miaojin's temperament at all at this time, he just wanted to pick up Zhao Zheng's ears and yell: If you don't drink, you can give it to the old capital! Pretend to be cold?! Load up a ball! It's cold in a while! If it's cold, it shouldn't taste good......

However, the change in her expression at this time was pure competition for favor in Yu Miaojin's eyes. deliberately pretended to be pitiful to please the prince! Bichi, phew.

There was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and I saw a plainly dressed woman with the three young masters of the palace appear in front of me.

The woman was about forty years old, with gray hair in a low bun, adorned with only a hosta; Dressed in a crimson dress, with shaved shoulders and a thin waist, she looks very ordinary, and even looks a little like a servant woman in the house, but her bearing is extraordinary.

A piece of powder is slightly powdered, although it is a little old, but the facial features are exquisite, and it can be seen that she must be a beautiful and refined beauty when she is young. Although it is not as domineering as the princess, it is also not to be underestimated.

The eldest of the three people behind her is probably the son Zhao Wenchi, who is loyal and honest, but he is a little swaying when he walks, and he is lame; The second son, Wen Xu, has a delicate face, bright eyes like stars, healthy wheat-colored skin is slightly rough, and he walks step by step, and at first glance he is a little general who is good at martial arts; The youngest Wen Lie was the most handsome, and when she was quiet, she looked like a girl with white teeth and red lips, and when she raised her eyes to see the snow river beside her father, she immediately lowered her head with red cheeks.

The only thing that can divert Xue He's attention from food is probably the good-looking little brother.
