"Princess Qingrao is joking, don't worry about your county lord, come, come and let's drink, this wine is the daughter red that has been stored in the cellar for a hundred years, everyone try it" As the host, Situ Lin took the lead in breaking the embarrassing deadlock, and toasted everyone present one by one with a smile.
"No hindrance" Mu Curtain walked away from Princess Qingrao without a trace, but Princess Qingrao was willing to let go of Mu Curtain there, like a sparrow, chattering non-stop.
"Qingrao" Qingchen's threatening voice came, Princess Qingrao looked at Mu Lian, she seemed to have done something bad with good intentions, lowered her head, and immediately became honest, sitting obediently in her place, like a child who made a mistake.
"Although Su Xiang of Lingguo is more than half a hundred years old, he died of illness half a month ago, a generation of arrogant and unparalleled talents left like this, it is really sad, the younger generation once admired Su Xiang's talent, and planned to visit after this time, hey, that Su Xiang left, it really made my generation sigh" Situ Lin picked up his wine glass and sighed.
"King Lin doesn't have to be too sad" Qingchen returned a glass of wine and drank it expressionlessly.
"His Royal Highness King Chen is worthy of the name of the god of war, in the valley that day, with only an ordinary sword, directly defeated my water sewing, sure enough, the young talent, martial arts, if it was not for the lord of the county to intercede, I am afraid I will not be able to stand here today"
"Where, where" King Chen secretly looked at his master and didn't tell him this.
"Thank you for saving your life, in the future, if your county lord has something to do, even if he sends someone to inform this king, this king will never refuse" Situ Lin pulled the jade pendant on his waist and handed it to Mu Lai.
"But with a gesture, King Lin is polite" can get Situ Lin's promise, but Mu Lian is naturally disrespectful, and hands over the jade pendant to Lamei.
"Come on, set the meal"
A group of pink-clothed palace maids walk in unison, low eyebrows and pleasing eyes, holding dishes with both hands, one exquisite dish on the table, a bird's nest, two dragons playing with pearls, three yuan Jiqing, four treasures duck, colorful toast, six-eared pigeon, seven-flavor chicken, eight treasures exquisite, nine-colored rivers, ten burns and one scene, hundred leaves and flowers, thousands of layers of thin and crispy, thousands of flowers bloom, the last dish is on the table, like a rose-like cherry blossom roll, in fact, all the dishes here have cherry blossoms as accessories, embellishment, so gorgeous, exquisite, meticulous table, It can be seen that Situ Lin is really attentive.
"Let's try the dishes of Sakura Kozuki"
Mu curtain picked up a piece of rose, crispy and glutinous entrance, sweet and lovely, leaving a faint fragrance of cherry blossoms between her lips and teeth, because she has the skills of a chef, almost every dish as soon as she enters the mouth, she knows the method of this dish, the ingredients, the heat, the meat is fat but not greasy, the fragrance is elegant, the food and the cherry blossoms are perfectly combined, the person who can make this table of dishes is simply the cherry blossoms are thoroughly developed, he is a well-deserved kitchen god.
"His Royal Highness King Lin, can I ask who this cook is, the dishes he makes are so delicious, I want to bring him back to the palace" Qingrao was embarrassed to shrink her head after eating, but such a delicious dish, how unwilling to eat only one meal, tie the cook back and cook for her every day.
"Princess Qingrao, I can't be the master of your problem, but I borrowed the cook with great difficulty, so I will cook this meal today, and I will leave tomorrow."
"Ah, so soon, can I know where he's coming from?"
"Ling An Guoyu Wen's subordinates, the rumored god of food, Mo" Situ Lin couldn't help, he asked him to cook such a meal this time, but he lost a lot of money.
"I know" Qing Rao was unmoved on her face, she was already ready to move in her heart, she was the god of food, and the dishes she cooked must be the best in the world.
After dinner, it was getting late, and it was time to disperse.
"You have come to Dongxu for a few days, the journey is boring, this morning I am ordered by the imperial brother, tomorrow I will take you to my Dongxu City to go around, appreciate the national conditions and folk customs of Dongxu" Situ Lin glanced at the sky, got up and looked at the few people present.
"Then it would be disrespectful"
Mu Lian and several people said goodbye one after another, the carriage in front of the cherry blossom small building, when Mu Lian bent down into the carriage, he saw that the king of Chen and the emperor of Qingxiao Kingdom were so close to each other, this person who pretended to be Chen was not pretending to anyone along the way, and suddenly thought of the throbbing of the heart when Qingchen first appeared in the depths of the cherry blossoms, and the two people at the door of the cherry blossom small building, height, body shape, and gestures, were really similar and terrible.
"Miss, miss," Lamei called softly.
"Well, let's go back" Mu Curtain got into the carriage, Chen, no matter what kind of appearance you appear in front of me, I will definitely recognize you"
The carriage slowly left, and at the door of the cherry blossom building, King Chen bowed his head and respectfully shouted "Master"
"Your mission, protect her by her side" In the darkness, a pair of sharp eyes looked at the departing carriage, and in the blink of an eye, all emotions in the eyes disappeared.
"Yes, master" King Chen left, and Qingchen disappeared into the night sky in a flash.
In the backyard of the cherry blossom building, Qingrao relied on the identity of the princess to pass unimpeded, Situ Lin had no choice but to support his forehead, he knew that he would not say so much.
"You are the rumored god of food, Mo" Qingrao looked at the man in Tsing Yi who was meditating in the courtyard, he really didn't look like a cook.
"You made today's dish?"
"Princess Qingrao, let's go back, I'll introduce you to a good cook another day, how about it?" Situ Lin hurriedly grabbed Princess Qingrao, this person is not just a cook.
"No, this princess wants him" Qingrao has never rejected her when she is so big, and her temper has come up.
"What?" The man's eyebrows and eyes did not move, his lips were opened, and he only said two words, but it was like a deep mountain valley, towering Mount Tai.
"You, listen to this princess, from today on, you will be responsible for cooking for this princess, if it is not delicious, this princess will order someone to cut off your head"
"Princess Qingrao, you are really" Those who don't know are not afraid, and the last few Zi Situ Lin swallowed his stomach directly, and raised his hand helplessly to Mo.
"Roll" Mo walked into the room.
"You are bold, dare to let Princess Ben go, I'm so angry" Qingrao followed reluctantly, but she didn't expect the man to close the door, she touched her nose, damn, no one has ever dared to treat her like this.
"Princess Qingrao, why don't you move," Situ Lin said on the side.
"No, if he doesn't come out, this princess won't leave" Qingrao sat on the stone bench next to her, and the slightly humble courtyard was full of people waiting at the moment.
"What about Emperor Qingxiao?" Situ Lin summoned the guards to ask where the emperor of Qingxiao Kingdom was now, and in his opinion, he was the only one who could control this princess.
"No, I don't know, it seems to have left" The chief of the guard broke out in a cold sweat, after your county lord left, King Chen also left, but the monarch of Qingxiao did disappear.
"Okay, you must protect the princess's safety here, this king will go to the palace first" Situ Lin's eyes flashed slightly when he heard Qingchen disappear, the imperial brother was still waiting for his news, and he couldn't delay any longer.
"Yes, Lord Wang," the chief guard saluted with his fists.
Sakura Xiaozhu, as soon as Situ Lin walked on the front foot, a large-scale assassination operation was ushered in on the back foot.
"You, who are you?"
"Don't come here, I warn you, this palace is the princess Qingrao of Qingxiao Kingdom, if you dare to be disrespectful to this palace, the royal brother will definitely not let you go" Qingrao retreated to the door of Mo's room step by step, with infinite regret in her heart, why did she wave away those who protected her.
"Princess Qingrao, what we are looking for is Princess Qingrao" The man in black swung a knife, seeing that it was about to fall on Qingrao's body, Qingrao closed her eyes nervously, and suddenly a figure flew out of the room, and a sword cut off the knife in the hand of the man in black, there was no expected pain, Qingrao opened her eyes, and saw Mo's side face at a glance, the tall and fearless figure blocked in front of her, at this moment, Qingrao could feel the sound of violent beating from her heart.
"Follow me" Mo looked at the black-clothed people all over the inside and outside of the cherry blossom building, pulled up the Qingrao behind him and ran, an arrow broke through the air, and the sound of the arrow piercing into the flesh and blood, Mo snorted.
Qingrao ran in front, the sound of slow footsteps behind her, looking back at the person leaning under the tree, how did he stop.
"Let's run, those people are coming," Qingrao said anxiously, walking up to him, only to find that an arrow had almost pierced his shoulder and back, and blood was dripping on the ground like plum blossoms.
"You, you're hurt," Qingrao exclaimed.
"Be careful" was another sound of an arrow piercing into the flesh, and Mo lost all his strength and fainted on Qingrao's body.
"Why, why are you blocking me, do you know it, you will die"
"You're so heavy, I can't drag it"
In the dark, Qingrao dragged Mo's body forward with difficulty, her delicate legs and arms were cut by branches and leaves, and she didn't realize it.
In the palace, Situ Lin entered the imperial study, outside the imperial study, two figures flashed in the dark night, one on the left and one on the right, one on the other, both found each other, the two were on guard against each other, and quietly listened to the movement in the room, no one moved, in the imperial study, two figures, faintly speaking.
"Since Emperor Ling is willing to release your county lord, then he can't let her go back, and it's a good choice to stay in my Dongxu."
"100,000 troops are quietly gathered at the border of Ling An, if Ling An refuses, then take advantage of the situation to attack, now Ling An's troops are scattered, there is no God of War Chen King, it is a good opportunity for us"
"King Lin, there can be any changes in Qingxiao"
"Brother Qiqi, Qingxiao has not seen anything abnormal recently"
"Well, that's good, just implement the plan we have drawn up, King Lin, thank you for your hard work"
"It is the honor of the minister to share the worries of the imperial brother" Situ Lin bent down and withdrew from the imperial study, smiling bitterly, he had been traveling for ten years, and he wanted to spend his life safely as a free king, but he didn't expect to participate in the struggle for imperial power.
"Situ Guoshi"
"Emperor of the Sky"
Above the Dongxu Palace, there are two figures standing on each side of the east and west, one is white-clothed and white-haired, like an immortal, and the other is majestic and heroic, and it is powerful in the world.
