Xiao Yilin felt very comfortable lying on the warm kang, and his body was not cold. The most important thing is that he is at ease and does not have to worry about his life being in danger at any time. The teenager is his greatest guarantee by his side.

After a long journey, Xiao Yilin was really tired, he sighed and soon fell asleep.

After a good night's sleep, Xiao Yilin slept until dawn and felt much more relaxed. It had been a long time since he had slept well. He found that as long as he was by Chu Jingyan's side, his body would be much easier. This made him decide to recruit the boy to his side in the future.

It's not just that the boy has very good medical skills, but also the boy has an extraordinarily smart brain with many whimsical ideas.

For breakfast, Qiao Yan had already boiled a pot of thick rice porridge. Yesterday, Xiao Yilin and they brought so much pork, and Jing Yi fried meat and celery with lard.

The soy sauce is already ready to eat, and the dishes stir-fried with soy sauce naturally taste better. Jingyi decided to process the two pork fans today, the fat meat is fried in oil, the pork ribs can be made into braised pork ribs, sweet and sour pork ribs, and the pork belly can be made into braised pork. Other parts of the meat can be used for stir-frying or chopping into meat fillings to make meatballs and dumplings. Anyway, there are too many ways to eat pork.

In addition to stir-fried celery, Jingyi blanched the grown spinach and saladed it cold, which also tasted very good. Now that she has sesame seeds, she can grind sesame oil and make pastries next year after planting sesame seeds.

Jing Yi also steamed a bowl of egg custard for Xiao Yilin. also asked Qiao Yan to fry poached eggs for others.

The leeks in the backyard garden are also growing well and are almost ready to eat. Jingyi is going to use this first crop of leeks to make pies or dumplings to eat. These leek-filled egg dumplings are absolutely delicious.

The chickens in the house have laid eggs, so you don't have to worry about eating eggs. If you don't have enough, you can buy it from someone in the village. She is not short of silver now, and of course she must eat better. It also showed the ancients the power of food.

The eggs under the duck Jingyi have been pickled, and the first batch of salted duck eggs will be ready to eat in a few days.

The ingredients for the meals at home were all processed by Qiao Yan in advance, and Jing Yi just cooked them last, but it didn't take much effort.

The most time-consuming part of cooking is preparing the ingredients, and these are all done. Only when she cooks a new dish, Jing Yi will personally take Qiao Yan to handle the ingredients, so that she can learn.

For breakfast, Xiao Yilin ate egg custard, drank porridge, and ate some vegetables. The same dish made by the teenager is better than what others make.

After breakfast, Jing Yi asked Gu Yu and Feng Zhi to cook the medicinal liquid used by Xiao Yilin to soak in the medicinal bath. When Gu Yu went to the firewood room to get firewood, he and Song Yuancheng walked and met.

Gu Yu was stunned for a moment when he saw Song Yuancheng, "Song Gongzi, why are you here?" ”

Gu Yu didn't expect to meet the son of the former Shangshu family in the Chu family. Although Song Yuancheng is not very famous in the capital, Gu Yu also knows him.

Song Yuancheng couldn't hide and said, "Gu Guard, I want to see the prince, can you inform me about it?" ”

Gu Yu put down the firewood and ran back to the wing, "Lord Wang, who do you guess I saw in the Chu family?" ”

Xiao Yilin and Feng Zhi both looked at Gu Yu curiously.

Gu Yu said: "I saw Song Siyuan, the little son of Song Qizhen, the former secretary of the Ministry of Rites. Lord Wang, Song Siyuan said he wanted to see you. ”

Xiao Yilin was also very curious about why this Song Siyuan was in the Chu family, and said, "Let me come in." ”

Soon Song Yuancheng walked in and saluted: "Song Yuancheng, a grass man, has seen Lord Jing. ”

Xiao Yilin looked at the thin-faced person in front of him and asked, "Song Siyuan, why are you here?" Shouldn't you go back to your hometown with your father? ”

Song Siyuan's father, Song Qizhen, was originally a scholar of the Ministry of Rites, but was relegated to his hometown after being framed by Xiao Yitai, King Xuan, and other princes for supporting King Jing. The Song family also followed back to their hometown.

And the little son of the Song family should be in his hometown Qingzhou, how could he appear here?

Song Yuancheng's eyes immediately turned red when he heard this, and he choked up and said, "We did go back to our hometown with our father." But not long ago, when I went out to visit a friend, a group of men in black came to my house, killed more than 100 members of my family, and then set fire to my house.

When I got home, I saw a ruin, but luckily an old servant who had escaped my life found me and pulled me away. He told me what had happened. The man in black was from Xuanwangfu, and the old servant said that his father recognized the guards of Xuanwangfu.

The old servant said that there are still people around my house to watch, and they must be looking for any fish that have slipped through the net, and the old servant told me to escape quickly, if it is found by the people of Xuanwangfu, it will definitely be a dead end.

The villagers in the neighborhood thought that my house was just on fire and the whole family was burned to death, so they helped bury my family. Under the guidance of the old servant, I found my parents' graves and kowtowed, and left my hometown overnight.

My hometown was seriously affected, so I changed my name and went all the way south among the displaced people, and I didn't know where I went, but I arrived at this Huizhou Mansion unconsciously.

The silver taels on his body had already been spent, and he fainted on the side of the road because of hunger.

Fortunately, I was able to pick up a life when Gongzi Chu rescued me. Now I sold myself to the Chu family as a slave, and swore to follow the son of Chu for the rest of my life.

I also want to ask the prince to help me hide my identity, not to tell Chu Gongzi my true identity, I don't want him to worry. I have now changed my name to Song Yuancheng, and the former Song Siyuan no longer exists. ”

Song Yuancheng was more worried that Gongzi Chu would not want him after knowing his true identity.

Xiao Yilin didn't expect Xiao Yitai to do such a desperate job, Song Qizhen has been deposed and returned to his hometown. How could such a brutal and narrow-minded man put him on the throne? Then will not all the people of the world be afflicted?

Xiao Yilin also became more aware of the fierceness of the struggle for imperial power.

He didn't have such an obsessive idea of the throne before, and just wanted to protect his family and defend the country so that the enemy would not dare to attack again.

But his brothers never thought of letting him go. Otherwise, he would not have been plotted by his brother, and he was tortured by illness for several years, and life was better than death.

If he is still as muddy as before, the final outcome will be like the Song family. So he had to pick himself up.

If his body can really heal, then he is bound to fight for that throne, not only for himself, but also for the people who support him.

He was very sympathetic to Song Yuancheng's plight. After all, Song Qizhen was also implicated because of her support for him. This Song Yuancheng is also Song Qizhen's favorite son, and he has the heart to help one or two.

He looked at Song Yuancheng and said, "Your father was so helpful to me at the beginning. If you want, I can tell Gongzi Chu that you can stay in King Jing's Mansion in the future and not have to be a slave. ”

Song Yuancheng arched his hand and said, "Thank you, Lord Wang, but I still want to stay in the Chu family." Chu Gongzi has a life-saving grace for me, and I swore that I will follow and serve Chu Gongzi for the rest of my life.

And Gongzi Chu never regarded us as slaves, but as family members. She sometimes cooks for us. It feels like home and I love staying here. Please also ask the prince to keep it secret for me. ”
