Chapter 330: Lotus Root

Yu Wenchu didn't care if Mingzhu remembered Yu Wenyou because of this, and said softly: "This kind of project costs the people and money, and your father is very opposed. said, since the concubine loves to eat lotus roots, it is enough to dig a pond in Daguan to raise a pool of lotus roots. The imperial father said, is it only the concubine who eats alone? The queen also wants to eat, the prince also wants to eat, and Concubine Min and other concubines and children have to eat. Relatives of the emperor and generals, who can't taste it? Then your father can no longer object. In fact, Zhou Guifei can't leave the lotus root every day, and the lotus root required must be carefully selected, only the sweetest and fullest section of several sections, pinch the head and tail to take the middle, select the best ones, a plate of lotus root, and the cost is huge. How can a mere pool of lotus root be enough for her flowers? ”

His tone and expression were very light, and Mingzhu couldn't see whether he was resentful of the first emperor or what, so he snorted: "The first emperor really pities the fragrance and cherishes the jade." "Thinking about her aunt and Concubine Min and the others who have suffered a lot from it, and then thinking of yourself - if Yu Wenchu also encounters such a fox spirit in the future, then she can't bear it. He said again: "But after a while, it's nothing to satisfy small wishes and hobbies, and it's not good after that." The Empress Dowager is really virtuous, and I definitely can't stand it if I change it. ”

Yu Wenchu looked back at her and said, "Who said it wasn't?" The Empress Dowager is indeed really virtuous and generous, which ordinary people can't reach, but if she can't bear it, how can she have today's situation? ”

Mingzhu understood what he meant, most of the supreme couples in the world are detached, which queen is not enduring it? If you are lucky, you will survive until the emperor dies, and your son is the master of the house, then you will be angry, and if you are unlucky, you will not survive, or you will die in front, or you will watch someone else's son take the position of your own son, and then watch someone else take your place, and you will not be able to turn a blind eye. Mingzhu shuddered suddenly, and said softly: "But I always feel that this is too difficult and painful." If it were me, I didn't know if I could endure it. ”

In the distance, a waterfowl leisurely combed the feathers on its body, then flicked its feet, spread its wings and flew up, Yu Wenchu bent down to pick up a stone and threw it at the waterbird, Mingzhu hurriedly hugged his arm, and said urgently: "Don't, it flies well, don't hurt it." ”

Yu Wenchu smiled: "I want to add dishes to your dinner." ”

Mingzhu looked at the stone that fell into the water, and then looked at the waterfowl that had flown far away, and calculated how it was impossible for the stone to hit the waterfowl from him, so he patted his arm angrily and said, "Lie to me again." ”

Yu Wenchu sighed and couldn't help laughing: "Who made you so easy to deceive?" Motioning to her to pay attention to the puddles under her feet, she said in a deep voice: "Although the royal couple is not an ordinary couple, it is not without loving couples. Mingzhu, I don't need you to be virtuous, and I don't need you how to forbear, I just hope that no matter how difficult it is in the future, I can be heart-to-heart with you, hand in hand, never abandon, not betrayal, not calculated, frank, and love each other. ”

Mingzhu's heart is rippling, why doesn't she want to be such a husband and wife? But not many people can really do this, right? What's more, in a situation like him and her, their interests are entangled, and their positions are not exactly the same, which must be difficult. Look at how many things have happened to them since they got married. However, she was willing to work hard, she looked up at Yu Wenchu's eyes and said word by word: "Your Highness treats me well, I like Your Highness, and I want to be with you all the time, so I will definitely work hard." ”

Her eyes are black and white, clean and clear as water, and her expression is even more resolute and sincere, Yu Wenchu impulsively wanted to pick her up and rub it into her bones, but she couldn't, there were many people here, she was wearing men's clothes again, and the two men hugged each other, and if they couldn't wait for tomorrow, there would be rumors in the palace and in the court that the king had a habit of breaking his sleeves. Of course, the discerning person knew what was going on, but it did not do Mingzhu any good reputation.

Yu Wenchu held back, secretly shook Mingzhu's hand tightly, pointed to the crowd in front of him and smiled: "You see that the front is lively, I must have found something good." Turning around, Wei Tiande stepped forward: "You go and see what's going on?" ”

Wei Tiande hurriedly walked forward, and later ran back and happily gestured to Mingzhu and Yuwenchu: "Your Highness, Princess, it was they who caught such a big pair of carp, golden yellow, probably weighing more than ten catties, and that beard must be so long!" It's just a pair that is not rare, but a rare pair, which is auspicious. ”

Mingzhu immediately threw the melancholy just now to the back of his mind, took Yu Wenchu's hand and said, "Let's go and see." ”

Yu Wenchu smiled, and she pulled him to run over there.

Sure enough, it is a very beautiful and rare pair of carp, even if the two of them are used to seeing good things, they can't help but praise it repeatedly, Cao Jinran has already heard the news and rushed over, and when he saw this, he smiled and said: "This is the luck of His Highness, just give it to His Highness, right?" ”

Although this thing is rare, it is not particularly rare, on the contrary, it comes from Huangzhuang, and it is also said to be auspicious, and it must not be taken. It's no wonder that this Cao Jinran will be reprimanded here, he can't even think of this, if he doesn't know that this is a stupid and good person, Mingzhu will wonder if he has ulterior motives.

Mingzhu pulled Yu Wenchu's sleeve twice, knowing that he was better than herself, she still couldn't help but want to remind him.

Yuwen Chu glanced at Mingzhu with a smile, and declined Cao Jinran's kindness very kindly: "Since it is a rare good thing, and it is from the Huangzhuang, it is better to dedicate it to Your Majesty." I think Your Majesty will like it very much. ”

Cao Jinran reacted instantly, and snorted with a red face: "Your Highness, slave maid ......"

"I know it all." Yu Wenchu raised his hand to stop the words behind him, and said with a smile: "Who is the best at planting lotus roots, please come over and explain to this king how to plant lotus roots." ”

Cao Jinran arranged for someone to stand aside to demonstrate and explain, Mingzhu had never seen these before, and it didn't sound interesting, and he repeatedly asked if he didn't understand, and picked out some stout and neat lotus roots to take back to eat.

Yuwen Chu stood aside and listened quietly, occasionally asking Cao Jinran a few words about the agricultural harvest, and when he saw that it was getting late, he said, "It's almost time, it's time to hurry." ”

Mingzhu was still unsatisfied, and ordered Wei Tiande to reward Cao Jinran and the farmer who taught her to plant lotus root, and excitedly followed Yu Wenchu behind him and said: "It turns out that planting lotus root is also very simple!" When I go back, I will also plant some lotus root in our pond for His Highness to eat, and then honor the elders. ”

Yu Wenchu didn't believe it at all: "It's you who use your mouth and instruct the human race, right?" ”

Mingzhu playfully stuck out her tongue at him: "You know again, but I've been teaching them to plant, and I have a share of the credit." ”
