In fact, nothing really happened.

He Qianwei's heart was so big at some times that it was inexplicably gratifying: as soon as the palace maid was escorted out, the anger in her body seemed to have found an outlet, and it all flowed out of the clouds, without causing any more waves.

However, Xiao Zaiyang looked at her curled up on the couch in a daze, and there was always a feeling that this person was holding back sadness.

So Xiao Zaiyang turned his head to look at the bright scenery outside the window, looked back at He Qianwei, and said unexpectedly: "Do you want to go to the lake to play?" ”

"Huh?" He Qianwei happened to stuff a piece of pastry into her mouth, and when she heard this, she only made a vague syllable.

She turned around and looked at Xiao Zaiyang with confused eyes, her cheeks bulging like a greedy cat.

Xiao Zaiyang understood the question "Where can I swim in a lake" hidden in her expression, and then explained.

"The first emperor was so devoted to pleasure that he ordered the craftsman to hollow out a piece of land in the palace and fill it with water, so that it could even accommodate the operation of a painting boat. My father hasn't been there since he ascended the throne, but there are people who have been cleaning, and if you want to go, just give me an order in advance. ”

He Qianwei swallowed the pastry and exclaimed very embarrassedly: "I see! ”

"Poor mouth." Xiao Zaiyang knocked her forehead funny: "To go?" ”

"It's more than half over, do you still have time to go to the lake today?"

Xiao Zaiyang lowered his head and thought about it, with a resolute attitude: "It's in time." ”

Since this is the case, He Qianwei naturally will not refuse, and this matter is so decided.

Seeing this, Qingyu, who stayed in the palace, immediately took the initiative to take the job, and wanted to go to the Internal Affairs Office in person, so that people could prepare all kinds of things to be used for swimming in the lake.

Mama Chen didn't know much about swimming in the lake, so she went to discuss with Ruolan, and the Yaoguang Palace was in chaos for a while.

As Xiao Zaiyang said, half an hour later, the two were already sitting firmly on the cruise ship.

Limited by the limitations of the site, the volume of this cruise ship is not large, and the overall decoration is quite simple, but although the sparrows are small, they have all the organs, which is enough to make people happily enjoy the fun of swimming in the lake.

The lake could be seen at a glance to the small pavilion on the shore at the end, so no one bothered to paddle hard, just let it moor on the water, swaying slightly to the rhythm of the breeze and the ripples on the lake.

In the capital without waterways, this is already a rare scene, not to mention that He Qianwei has never encountered such an encounter before, and he walks around the deck in a novel way at the moment.

Mama Chen, who was worried about her seasickness, also followed in a muffled voice, until He Qianwei had seen enough and ran into the cabin to find Xiao Zaiyang in high spirits before she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

As soon as she entered the cabin, He Qianwei smelled a burst of smoke.

Why does it smell like this in the cabin?

He Qianwei looked intently, the two little eunuchs were busy in front of a small red clay stove, and Xiao Zaiyang was nowhere to be found.

She slowly stepped forward: "What about Your Highness?" ”

The little eunuch was taken aback, but one of them quickly recognized He Qianwei's identity and replied diligently: "The slave maid was called here by Gonggong Ji, and I have never seen His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

The little eunuch, who reacted half a beat slowly, turned the fan in his hand to prevent the smoke from blowing towards He Qianwei. While he was busy, he reminded again: "Girl, be careful, it's not good to be choked by this smoke." ”

He Qianwei has never taken the initiative to find hardships, and immediately moved a few steps to the side.

Seeing that she couldn't find an answer, she simply turned her head and got out again, and by the way, she asked someone to help her move a wooden chair and put it on the bow of the boat, and then sat down and left it there to blow the wind.

It can be described as refreshing.

The wind swept across the lake from afar, picked up a pool of blue waves, and then stopped at the tips of He Qianwei's hair, repeatedly circled between her buns, and ended the journey silently.

Xiao Zaiyang saw such a scene at first sight.

He has always known that although He Qianwei is still young, there is a faint bit of a country and a city between her eyebrows, and if she grows up in the future, I am afraid it is not an exaggeration to call the last sentence peerless.

When Jiang Liuwan was not out of the cabinet, a pair of longing and affectionate Ruifeng eyes had made many good sons and daughters fall under the pomegranate skirt, and maybe it would be repeated in her daughter's body.

With such a flash of effort, He Qianwei had already noticed Xiao Zaiyang's figure from the surrounding greetings.

But He Qianwei, who was spoiled, didn't plan to get up, after all, Xiao Zaiyang herself said that she only had to say hello to one person in this palace.

So He Qianwei just raised her hand to block the warm sunlight, raised her eyebrows and smiled at him: "Why did you come?"

"Something temporary." Xiao Zaiyang walked to He Qianwei's side, lowered his eyes to look at her, took a few steps forward, and protected the little girl in the shadow under him, and then asked, "Why are you staying here alone?" ”

"There's no one else to accompany me but you."

He Qianwei replied as a matter of course, and immediately remembered that she didn't find Xiao Zaiyang just now, but she ran into two little eunuchs who burned a charcoal fire, so she mentioned it by the way: "What did you let people make a stove for?" ”

Now the weather has turned cooler, the tail tip of midsummer is gradually inaudible cicadas, and occasionally a sudden rain is a little more refreshing, but in short, they are about to leave, and it is autumn time.

So He Qianwei really didn't understand what the stove was for.

She was even so hot that she ran to the bow of the boat to blow the wind for a long time, it didn't make sense that Xiao Zaiyang would feel cold, so that she had to use a stove to keep warm, right?

He Qianwei strangely glanced up and down at the person in front of her.

Xiao Zaiyang was inexplicably furious by her gaze, and explained: "The crabs at the end of summer are the freshest and delicious, so I asked a few people from the dining room to steam the crabs to eat." ”

He Qianwei usually comes to the capital on New Year's Day, so naturally she can't catch up with crabs; As for the yellow sand in Wancheng, she couldn't see this rampant and domineering creature, and she really didn't know that the crabs in late summer were the most delicious.

But it's not too late to know.

After hearing this, He Qianwei suddenly came to the spirit again: "When can I make steamed crabs?" ”

"Workers used to throw crab pots into the lake, but now they can almost catch them."

Xiao Zaiyang replied, took a few more steps away, and turned his head to look at He Qianwei when he was about to leave.

He Qianwei understood it, bounced up from the wooden chair and went to chase Xiao Zaiyang, tugging on his sleeve and not letting go for a moment, for fear that he would fall into a panic and then not be able to eat crabs.

Ji Xiu held back a smile bitterly.

Mama Chen shook her head, quite helpless about her young lady's temperament full of food.

Turning into the cabin, I still saw the two little eunuchs from before.

The difference was that there was something squatting next to them that they couldn't recognize what it was, and the red clay stove had been filled with carefully selected crabs.

Looking at those crabs, He Qianwei guessed that the mass was probably the "crab pot" in Xiao Zaiyang's mouth, so she inevitably looked at it a few more times curiously.

In contrast, Xiao Zaiyang turned a blind eye to this situation, walked directly to the table that had been simply arranged and sat down, and beckoned to He Qianwei.

He Qianwei also went over and sat down, and asked impatiently, "How long will it take?" ”

"I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry." Xiao Zaiyang replied.

"Coincidentally, I like to eat cold." He Qianwei subconsciously replied, but in order to enjoy the most delicious crab, she still resisted her eagerness, and sat in her position as if scratching her heart and waiting.

Not long after, the freshly steamed crab was brought to the table, and He Qianwei wanted to do it first, but suddenly took it back.

Xiao Zaiyang's face was full of strangeness: "What's wrong?" ”

“…… I don't peel crabs. ”

He Qianwei had a bitter face.

The pain of not being able to eat the food in front of her is far beyond the weight of a girl who loves to eat, and she is so sad that she almost cries, like a mourner.

Xiao Zaiyang didn't say anything.

For a long time, He Qianwei only felt that a black shadow flashed in front of her.

If you look closely, you can see that your dishes are full of crab meat.

She subconsciously looked in the direction of Xiao Zaiyang.

I saw that the prince, who was usually pampered, held a small silver scissors in his hand, and quickly cut off the crab's double pincers with his movements expressionlessly, and then made a gesture to open the entire crab shell.

After this operation, He Qianwei was so surprised that she even forgot to eat.

She looked energetic, but Xiao Zaiyang had already finished peeling another crab, and was wiping her hands slowly, seeing He Qianwei's appearance, she reminded again: "If you don't eat it again, I'm worried about the cold." ”

He Qianwei, who was fascinated by the appreciation, reacted instantly and buried herself in eating.

The crabs at the end of summer were indeed fat and fresh, and the two of them were extremely satisfied with this meal, and in the end, no one even wanted to stop, but Ji Xiu and Mama Chen went out together, and persuaded them for a long time before they dispelled the idea of eating another cage of crabs.

He Qianwei felt that she couldn't enjoy eating it for the first time, but the crab was cold, and Mama Chen made up her mind not to let her eat more, so she could only regret to stop.

After thinking about it, He Qianwei turned her head and talked to Xiao Zaiyang.

"Can crabs only be eaten at this time?"

Xiao Zaiyang shook his head: "It's not limited to this time." However, the taste of crab in other seasons is average, and it does not have the taste of late summer. ”

"Oh-" He Qianwei dragged out the last note, and Tu Qian asked again, "Then can you eat crabs next year?" ”

Xiao Zaiyang always felt that He Qianwei was just chatting casually before, and this sentence was the most important thing.

But he still agreed: "I'll bring you here next year." ”

He Qianwei lifted the corner of her lips and smiled.

Considering the amount of food of the little master, the people in the imperial dining room did not put many crab pots, but the harvest was really rich, and in the end there were a lot of crabs left.

When the chef was worried about these crabs, Ji Xiu took the prince's edict and slowly swayed into the back kitchen, pointing out a clear way: His Royal Highness said that he would also send a copy to the Qinzheng Palace.

So the crab peeler was replaced by Tang Zhengde, the eunuch in charge of the old and strong imperial front, and the emperor calmly finished all these crabs in one go.

But after learning that the prince deigned to peel the crab shell for He Qianwei for a long time today, he felt deeply unbalanced in his heart, and immediately ordered people to send out a few more crab pots, preparing to steam crabs to eat tomorrow.

The next day, Xiao Zaiyang stepped on the point to check the emperor's homework, but inexplicably peeled the crab shell for a while, and couldn't help but say bluntly: "Are you so careful?" ”

In response to him, the emperor ordered without raising his eyes: "Where do you come from so many words, move faster." ”
