The spring breeze is blowing, with a warmth in the softness, coupled with the bright spring, that is, the parting is imminent, and the sadness is gradually disappearing, Lin Qingwan and Zhong Ruying glanced at each other and couldn't help laughing.

The two of them led the horses and walked slowly, but they were not in a hurry to rush this way.

Seeing that there was a resting pavilion not far in front of him, with a lot of wild flowers on the side, Zhong Ruying took Lin Qingwan's hand and said, "Let's go sit there." โ€

Lin Qingwan smiled, "You're really not in a hurry." โ€

Zhong Ruying pouted and said, "I will always arrive within the deadline, what's the hurry?" โ€

Lin Qingwan walked slowly to the pavilion with her, and the servants and others who were driving the car behind immediately took tea sets from the car to boil water for them to make tea.

Zhong Ruying leaned on the railing and said comfortably: "If it weren't for the fact that there were no generals in the army, it would be good to stay in the capital all the time, and I would go out for a walk with you in my spare time, which is almost the same as when I was a teenager." โ€

Lin Qingwan smiled silently.

Zhong Ruying looked at her and shook her head and said: "But it's useless even in the capital, you are too busy, last time you were resting, I wanted to go climbing the mountain with you, but you turned out to be in the palace." โ€

"Your Majesty has just ascended the throne, so he will always be busy."

"That's not necessarily, I'm afraid that if you're busy, you won't be able to be idle in the future."

"In another month or two, when the affairs of the court are almost busy, I will ask for leave to go back to Suzhou, and I will go to Youzhou in the autumn, so it will only be two months of busyness."

Zhong Ruying raised her eyebrows slightly and asked, "What, are you going to Liao?" โ€

Lin Qingwan smiled: "You may not be able to go in." โ€

Zhong Ruying felt that Wen Dihan was only afraid of being unlucky.

The sword boiled the water, and was about to open the tea leaves to cook tea for them, when Lin Qingwan took over and smiled: "I'll come." โ€

The sword bowed and retreated.

The guards and subordinates were all standing outside the pavilion, and there were only two people left in the pavilion, Zhong Ruying began to keep her mouth shut, "The eldest prince mainly runs a women's school, you introduced it, right?" โ€

Lin Qingwan looked up and smiled at her.

Zhong Ruying said: "I knew that you did it, and there is a female school in Suzhou in Daliang, if you don't mention it, how could the eldest princess think of this?" โ€

Lin Qingwan poured her a cup of tea and asked with a smile, "Isn't it good to be like this now?" โ€

Zhong Ruying "hissed" for a moment, and said with sour teeth: "She brought a horse to deliver a letter to me a while ago, and she almost knocked my teeth down, so what's good." In the past, the eldest princess never took a colt with her when she went out, but now she is inseparable. โ€

In the past, the husband and wife had different aspirations, the eldest princess often interacted with the noble family, but the concubine preferred to go to the mountains to paint, or take the students to sigh and talk about poetry.

The concubine didn't want the eldest princess to be boring, and the eldest princess didn't want to force the concubine, so the couple rarely went out together, unless they went to a banquet where they had to go together.

But now, outsiders can't get involved in the relationship between the couple at all, and when they talk about it, they can always talk about topics that only the two of them can talk about.

Lin Qingwan couldn't help laughing, "It should fade after a while." โ€

Zhong Ruying didn't speak, picked up the tea and drank, "Don't talk about them, this time I will take a detour to Suzhou, do you have anything you need me to bring?" โ€

"Yes, it's all in the carriage, you can just take it with you when you go back." Lin Qingwan paused and said: "Please stay in Suzhou for two more days, Yubin always reports good news, and I don't know if she is really worry-free or not." โ€

"Don't worry, I'll stay two more days for you to keep an eye on."

"Thank you, sister."

"Don't call me sister, as soon as you call me sister now, I will remember how you call the eldest princess sister."

Lin Qingwan couldn't help laughing.

The two of them talked and laughed, time passed quickly, and seeing that noon was approaching, Lin Qingwan simply said: "It's not too late to leave after lunch, it just so happens that I brought a lot of ingredients, how about showing my hand to you?" โ€

Let's let Yi Han move the ingredients from the car.

Zhong Ruying couldn't help but stare when she saw that there were still fresh mushrooms, "Why are you still carrying this with the car?" โ€

"Oh, I wanted to send you away and then turn around to the Crescent Lake for a picnic, it's hard to get out of the city once, I can't send you back, right?"

Zhong Ruying was a little congested, "Co-authoring me by the way?" โ€

Lin Qingwan laughed and said, "Aren't all these ingredients cheap now?" โ€

The ingredients that Yi Han moved down were all vegetarian, since she became the righteous daughter of Emperor Liang and also guarded his spirit, she naturally had to keep it to the end, so although she was filial piety, she was still vegetarian.

The royal filial piety is different from the people, in addition to the emperor, the other emperor's children have to keep a year at the shortest, and the emperor is one day on behalf of January, and it can be kept for twenty-seven days.

It's just that the new emperor is filial and still guards it, and Lin Qingwan estimates that he will have to keep it for a year.

The courtiers' requirements do not have to be so strict, and after a hundred days, although they still can't drink feasts, they can eat meat.

Zhong Ruying is not broken now, but she is a military general, and it is impossible not to eat meat when she goes to the border pass, after all, she can exercise and consume a lot of calories, and it is impossible to eat a vegetarian diet alone.

Zhong Ruying felt that Lin Qingwan was also magical, "What can a picnic make with this little ingredient?" โ€

Lin Qingwan tilted her head and thought for a while, "Big mess stew? โ€

Zhong Ruying twitched the corners of her mouth and asked, "Can you eat it?" โ€

"Don't worry, it's delicious." The ingredients are fresh and good, "What's more, our purpose is to enjoy the landscape, and eating is just incidental." โ€

So she doesn't have to expect much, does she?

Zhong Ruying sat cross-legged on the grass, holding her chin and watching her toss.

Seeing that the general was really not in a hurry, Shi Jian turned around and ordered, "Let everyone unload their things, and we will also bury the pot and make rice, looking at this posture, it will be good if we can leave in the afternoon." โ€

An adjutant twitched the corner of his mouth and asked, "Do you want to go back to the capital for one night that night, and then go back tomorrow?" โ€

The squire rolled his eyes and said, "If you see someone going to take office, they will go back, and if they can't do it, they will sleep in the open." โ€

Sleeping in the suburbs of Beijing?

There are comfortable big beds in the city that don't sleep, and they have to go camping outside the city, how idle they are.

But the two masters were obviously in high spirits, and they could only pinch their noses and admit it.

It's a big stew, but it's really a big stew.

Wash the fresh mushrooms and vegetables, and Lin Qingwan threw them all into the soup that had just boiled.

There was only some oil and salt in it, as if seeing that the color was too light, Lin Qingwan was also a little embarrassed, turned out a jar of sauce, scooped a spoonful and put it down.

Zhong Ruying was dumbfounded and asked, "What kind of sauce is this?" โ€

"The soybean paste made by the cook at home is delicious." Lin Qingwan promised: "Don't worry, if you put the sauce, it won't be unpalatable." โ€

Zhong Ruying looked at her expression and found that she was serious, so she couldn't help lying down on the grass and lamented, "It's better to eat dry food." โ€

Lin Qingwan pushed her and said, "Don't dislike it, my craftsmanship is still very good, and when I get out of filial piety, I will make soup for you." โ€

"What soup?"

Lin Qingwan became confident at this time, "I can make a lot of soup, all of which are warm and replenished, and I specially learned from the cook to cook for Yubin to drink, don't worry." โ€

Zhong Ruying glanced at the messy stew in the pot, and sighed faintly: "If it's more assured than this, I'm really not at ease." โ€

How many of her words have been relieved today?

Of course, Yi Han couldn't just let Lin Qingwan eat this, since he was going to come for a picnic, he had prepared a lot of things, so he took down a lot of snacks from the car one after another, as well as various fruits, and put them on the ground.

Zhong Ruying was finally relieved to see it, even if the pot was stewed in a mess and couldn't be eaten, she could be full of snacks and fruits.

When the dish came out of the pot, Zhong Ruying tasted it, and raised her eyebrows to look at Lin Qingwan.

Lin Qingwan smiled and asked, "How is it, I said it's delicious." โ€

Zhong Ruying swallowed it and said, "It's just not unpalatable, but I'm a general who marches and fights." โ€

What unpalatable things hasn't she eaten?

I only had one comment: "It's not unpalatable", it's really not good.

Lin Qingwan tasted it and thought it was delicious, she tilted her head and said, "Is it because the dishes she made are the best?" โ€

Zhong Ruying couldn't help laughing, "You're too confident." โ€

The adjutant looked at it, turned his head and said to the sword: "I think we should turn around and go back to the city, so many people are staying in the suburbs, and the people who come in and out think we are fools when they see it." โ€

It's not far from the city, it's only a quarter of an hour on horseback, what's the deal with staying in the suburbs?

The sword turned his back, when he didn't hear it, this is a feng shui problem, since he is going to take office, how can he go out of the city and go back?

That's so unlucky.

Just thinking about it, as soon as she looked up, she saw a group of people and horses riding from afar, her face changed slightly, and she turned around and said, "Go and stop people, I'll report to the general." โ€

Lin Qingwan loves Zhong Ruying very much, so she is trying her best to take out the vegetables and pile them in her bowl, Zhong Ruying said that she also loves Lin Qingwan too, so she pushed back, the two of them were laughing, and the sword came over quickly, and reported in a low voice: "General, Young Master Zong, they are here." โ€

Zhong Ruying smiled slightly, turned her head to look at the road, a team of people and horses gradually ran over, and was stopped by the guards at the intersection, and the people on the horse dismounted one after another to come over.

She squinted her eyes and asked, "Why did Zhong Xian walk with them?" โ€

Shi Jian took a closer look, and only then did he find that Young Master Xian was also mixed in, but he was squeezed out by Young Master Zong and Young Master You, and he couldn't squeeze it out.

Lin Qingwan took the bowl and bowed her head to eat the vegetables.

Zhong Ruying looked back and couldn't help kicking her feet, "You have always been smart, but you have an idea for me." โ€

Lin Qingwan was helpless, "You haven't made up your mind in your heart, what idea can I give you?" โ€

Zhong Ruying didn't care about the nephews who were stopped outside, leaned back, looked at her with a smile and said: "Speaking of which, you and I are in a similar situation, but you are better than me, and you have a niece, so I just left an heir for your Lin family's descendants, unlike me, who is alone, and the current side branch is far away from our family's bloodline." โ€

"But doesn't Brother-in-law Qi have a brother?"

Zhong Ruying's face turned cold, and she sneered: "If his two nephews are capable, I will naturally support them, but the mud can't support the wall, I don't want my Zhong Jiajun's reputation to be bad in their hands." โ€

"Then do you want to pass over?" Lin Qingwan asked.

Zhong Ruying pursed her lips, and only after half a sound did she relentlessly and said: "If it is these things that have passed, I would rather be alone, but what about my Zhong Jiajun?" โ€

Lin Qingwan lowered her eyes and said: "My grandfather also had this consideration when he handed over the Lin family's army, my father had no intention of military affairs, and although the side branch had a heart, his talent was not enough, so he dedicated the Lin family's army to the first emperor." โ€
