Chapter 37: The Temptation of Jujube Cake
Fu Qianqian really came in with a food box, the girl was dressed in an apricot brocade skirt, with a bright smile on her slightly round face, panting: "Yi'er, my mother asked me to give this to you." ”
Chu Yi looked at the food box with bright eyes, the two glanced at each other, Fu Qianqian took a deep breath, opened the lid divinely, and suddenly, a rich fragrance spread.
"Mountain mushroom ginseng chicken soup! With the small cakes, we have a new cook in Jindi, and the chicken soup is good, which is more nourishing and delicious than the palace, Yi'er, how about you taste it. ”
The fragrant chicken broth is still warm, sprinkled with chopped green onions, and served with a golden crispy dough that is baked, which is appetizing.
Xunchun was on the side, took out the silver chopsticks, carefully tried the chicken soup, and saw that there was no change in the chopsticks, so he nodded to the princess.
Chu Yi didn't like these red tape before, she didn't feel that she had any value worth being killed, but after marrying Xiao Yan, she knew that there were so many people in the world who wanted her or Xiao Yan's life, and how many poisons could not be prevented, and there were all kinds of poisons.
At that time, no matter how much Xiao Yan was prepared, Chu Yi was still poisoned twice, but fortunately, Xiao Yan should have hidden some miracle doctors under his command, and quickly detoxified her, but her already weak body gradually ran out of oil.
And now, without Xiao Yan by her side, she can only be careful herself.
Fu Qianqian sat down with a blank eye, and it could be seen that she also wanted to drink very much.
But this is what the eldest princess asked her to bring to Chu Yi, not only did she not move, but she also carefully protected her all the way for fear of spilling, and she was afraid that the chicken soup would be cold if she walked slowly.
Chu Yi scooped a spoonful into the bowl, then put the bowl in front of her, picked up the cake and took a bite: "Together." ”
Fu Qianqian was so excited that she almost shed tears, and whimpered: "Yi'er, you are so good!" You don't know, I've weighed a few pounds recently, my mother even cut off my favorite jujube paste yam cake for me, from morning to now, I only drank a few bowls of porridge, ate a piece of honey potato, and people are going to be hungry. ”
"I still want to thank my aunt for her kindness, and besides, let you bring me food, can't you see what my aunt means." Chu Yi said meaningfully.
Fu Qianqian's eyes lit up, and she suddenly realized, and drank the chicken soup more calmly: "You mean that my mother took pity on me and let me drink it?" Yes, that makes sense! ”
She wiped her mouth and said, "By the way, I heard that the prince's cousin was appointed as the deputy commander of the Yulin Army, and he took the lead all day long, guarding the palace gate, so let's go to Wenhua Gate later." ”
Chu Yi's heart moved, and he asked, "Who did Qianqian listen to?" ”
"My mother, she is very well-informed, and asked me to bring a bag of snacks to the prince's cousin," Fu Qianqian said, taking out a bag of snacks from her pocket and watching it swallow her saliva, "This looks better than chicken soup." ”
Chu Yi sniffed, this seemed to be the osmanthus cake that Chu Ye liked to eat.
My aunt asked Fu Qianqian to send snacks to Chu Ye...... Sure enough, although the current Fu Qianqian doesn't like Chu Ye, the eldest princess already wants to match her daughter and the prince.
As the only daughter of the eldest princess, with the prince of a country, she is also a good match.
"Since Qianqian wants to eat it so much, why don't you eat it, and I'll ask the palace people to send something to my brother to make up for it at will, he won't care." Chu Yi said.
Fu Qianqian has been greedy for a long time, and when she heard this, she nodded busily: "Is it really possible!" That's going to keep it secret for me. ”
"Naturally, if your aunt asks, you can just say that your brother is diligent on duty and hasn't talked to you."
"Good!" Fu Qianqian ate the osmanthus cake given to Chu Ye and gave it to Chu Yi.
Chu Yi sighed in her heart, she didn't mean to break up the marriage between these two.
- Fu Qianqian and Chu Ye are a fruit that they know is sour before they bloom, instead of tasting its bitterness, it is better to pick another flower at the very beginning.
Especially now, she already knows that her brother is writing letters with Geng Tingyu, who is far away in Yongguo.
After eating, Chu Yi and Fu Qianqian took the two palace maids and walked to the imperial garden together.
Enjoying the flowers as usual, the figure in the Fubi Pavilion in the distance walked over, and he owed a blessing to Chu Yi and the others from afar.
"The concubine has seen Princess Yongning, the county lord of Yongjia."
The woman is in her thirties, dressed in a concubine-colored palace dress, with black hair and jasper, looking simple and weak, and carrying a delicate food box in her hand.
Behind her, she was followed by two accompanying palace maids.
"You are?" Chu Yi saw that this woman should be a concubine in Chu Tingxiao's harem, she moved her nose and smelled a very faint smell of medicine on the woman's body, if it weren't for her sensitive sense of smell since she was a child, and she drank medicine every day, she wouldn't have been able to smell it.
"The concubine is the Yi Concubine Liu family." Yi Concubine did not have the slightest embarrassment forgotten by the princess, and still smiled as gently as water.
Chu Yi remembered that Liu Cheng, the right lieutenant of the Yulin Army, used Yi Concubine to say that she was his eldest sister, but the embarrassing thing was that she didn't know Yi Concubine.
The palace maid behind Yi Concubine whispered: "Niangniang, let's hurry up and go to the Wolf Garden, don't delay Du Wei's lunch." ”
"Wolf Park?" Chu Yi's heart moved, and he couldn't help but think of some past events.
The wolf park of Yan country is newly changed a few days ago, it used to be a deer park, every year when the autumn hunt, a few deer will be thrown out from it to the hunting ground on the outskirts of Beijing, for the princes and nobles to shoot, and then the deer ran out, and now there are three Mobei snow wolves in the Yongguo sacrifice, so it is called the wolf park.
Yi Concubine bowed: "The concubine is going to the wolf garden to deliver food to her younger brother, so she won't disturb the princess and the county lord to enjoy the flowers." ”
Fu Qianqian asked curiously, "Who is your brother, why do you need to deliver meals?" ”
"The concubine's younger brother is Liu Cheng, the captain of the Yulin Army, and it was his turn to guard the wolf park this afternoon, and the concubine made some of his favorite lotus root flour balls, roast meat, and jujube paste cakes......
She didn't finish speaking, because Fu Qianqian, who heard the words "jujube mud cake", couldn't cover the light in her eyes.
Yi Concubine saw Fu Qianqian's expression, hesitated, and said softly: "If the county lord doesn't dislike it, or, the concubine will give half of the share to the county lord that the concubine brought to her younger brother." ”
Chu Yi narrowed his eyes and rubbed the tip of his nose.
The smell of herbs on this woman's body, for some reason, made her uncomfortable.
"Don't dislike it...... However, how embarrassing it is, this is what you prepared for your brother, it is better to go to the wolf park with you to bring meals to your brother, he will definitely not eat too much, just give me a little leftover. ”
Fu Qianqian thought about it, but she still couldn't resist the temptation brought by the jujube mud cake.
Because she really likes to eat too much, she doesn't have the county lord's shelf, and she doesn't dislike any food.
"So...... It's good. Yi Concubine smiled and nodded.
Fu Qianqian turned her head and whispered to Chu Yi: "Yi'er, you know, I can do without meals, but I can't do without jujube mud cakes!" ”
Chu Yi smiled and said, "In that case, let's go find Liu Duwei together, and this palace also wants to see it...... The snow wolf offered by Yongguo. ”
She wanted to see what Concubine Yi was going to do when she led Fu Qianqian to the Wolf Park.
It just so happened that Mingyue Pavilion was next to the Wolf Garden.
Seven years later, everyone in the world knows that Xiao Yan, the king of Yu in Yongguo, is the best at taming beasts, and there are two Mobei snow wolves in his garden.
