Chapter 324: Self-defeating
She hurriedly lifted the curtain and saw a gray-haired old couple at the food stall not far away, one was responsible for boiling soup and serving soup, and the other was responsible for making cakes and collecting money.
"It's mutton soup, and mutton pie," Jiang Fuguang's eyes lit up, and he grabbed Ji Ruxuan's sleeve, "I want to eat it." ”
"Wait." Ji Ruxuan stopped the carriage and got out of the carriage with the food box.
As soon as he appeared, it caused a commotion in the crowd, and the old couple was a little nervous, but when they saw him waiting behind with a food box, it didn't look like he was here to make trouble, so they were relieved.
The other diners also relaxed a little, and the sharp-eyed people saw the canopy carriage parked on the side of the street opposite, with the emblem of the eldest princess's mansion hanging on it, and after a little guessing, they knew that this person was probably the guard next to the eldest princess, and came to buy food for the eldest princess, so they whispered a few words to others.
The crowd inevitably had some commotion, the eldest princess Jin Jiaoyu is expensive, what delicacies have you not eaten? How can you buy food from roadside food stalls like them?
After waiting for a quarter of an hour, it was Ji Ruxuan's turn, and he took the soup cup from the food box: "Fill it up, and have five more mutton pies." ”
The old couple hurriedly responded, and quickly filled the soup and pancakes with their hands and feet.
After waiting for a while, the mutton pie was baked, and the old man hurriedly wrapped it in oiled paper and handed it to Ji Ruxuan: "You take it and eat it while it's hot." ”
Ji Ruxuan handed over a piece of broken silver and walked out of the crowd with a food box.
Behind him was the voice of the old man calling for a lot, and he turned a deaf ear and walked away quickly.
The diners on the side of the road clearly saw that the black-clothed masked man got into the carriage of the eldest princess's mansion, confirming the guess that the eldest princess was eating a roadside food stall.
The crowd was boiling again.
Jiang Fuguang didn't expect that if she asked Ji Ruxuan to buy something to eat, she would be able to make such a move, at this time she was happy, holding a bowl of mutton soup and drinking it in small sips, the entrance was fragrant and salty, without any fishy, and she was very satisfied with another bite of pie.
"So delicious?" Ji Ruxuan asked with a smile.
Jiang Fuguang hurriedly swallowed the food in his mouth: "It's really delicious, you can taste it." ”
Ji Ruxuan suddenly approached and took a bite on the mutton pie she had eaten half-eaten, Jiang Fuguang was stunned for a moment, and opened his mouth: "This is what I ......have eaten".
Ji Ruxuan hooked her lips and stared at her fresh lips: "It's delicious." ”
"......" Jiang Fuguang shut up.
"What does the eldest princess always see me do?" Ji Ruxuan raised her eyebrows and smiled, her eyebrows were deep, "Why don't you eat it?" ”
Jiang Fuguang lowered his head and took a bite of the pie, and reacted, this is the position that Ji Ruxuan has bitten before.
Ji Ruxuan smiled and asked, "Is it delicious?"
Jiang Fuguang swallowed the pie and nodded: "It's delicious." ”
"Do you want something more delicious?" Ji Ruxuan hooked her lips and smiled, took the pie she hadn't finished eating, and put it in the food box.
Jiang Fuguang was about to ask what it was, but Ji Ruxuan stepped forward and lowered her head to kiss her moist and full lips.
The spring warmth in the carriage was so fragrant that people were almost drunk.
Ji Ruxuan let go of her, her throat slid for a while, the girl's cheeks were red, like a begonia spring, the small mountain eyebrows were like smoke and mist, the starry eyes were half-hidden, the sandalwood mouth was slightly open, the appearance was pure and charming, it was really cute.
One side of the placket accidentally slipped off, revealing a touch of ice-cut jade carved fragrant shoulders.
Ji Ruxuan lifted her shirt with her hand and chuckled: "Is it delicious?" ”
Jiang Fuguang's eyes couldn't help but stare at: "Hooligans." ”
It's just that her eyes are dyed with misty smoke, and when she stares at her like this, her eyes are rippling, and she is even more soft and seductive, and Ji Ruxuan laughed out loud.
……
After the banquet, preparations for the construction of the pagoda are also in full swing.
On September 20, Hangzhou sent the good news of a bumper harvest of buckwheat in Xin'an County.
This good news immediately dispelled the dark clouds that shrouded the court because of the case of Cheng'an Hou, and Emperor Nanxing also showed a long-lost smile, and the ministers of civil and military affairs breathed a sigh of relief.
But immediately after, some people inside and outside the government and the opposition said that it was the queen mother who donated to the post-disaster reconstruction, fasted and recited the Buddha, copied Buddhist scriptures, prepared to build pagodas, and prayed for the victims of Xin'an County.
Huang Jingzhou immediately couldn't hold back, and openly mocked in the court: "Gai Ming'er, you all have the whole land at home one by one, don't sprinkle seeds, eat fasting and chanting Buddha every day, copy Buddhist scriptures, pray to God, see if the ground can grow crops out of nothing." ”
The other officials of the Imperial Observatory followed suit.
The queen's mother repairs the pagoda, which is virtuous and kind, but she has to rob the eldest princess of the credit, and the appearance is too ugly? !
The officials who said this were all stunned, and they did not dare to stand up and argue.
At this time, Jiang Fuguang stood in the hall: "Your Majesty, the villagers of Xin'an County, brought a bag of bumper harvest buckwheat for the minister, and the minister was very happy in his heart, so he proposed to cook this bag of buckwheat into rice, taste the food of the people with you, and feel the suffering of the people." ”
Emperor Nanxing felt that this proposal was very good, and immediately agreed.
Zhang Dequan immediately ordered someone to go outside the noon gate to get buckwheat and send it to the imperial dining room.
In less than half an hour, several attendants carried a half-person-high food box into the Taiji Hall.
Zhang Dequan took the lead in preparing a meal for His Majesty, and then ordered someone to distribute the prepared buckwheat rice to the ministers.
The buckwheat taste is rough, prickly throat, not as sweet and soft as the refined grain they usually eat, there are many ministers who can't eat it at the moment, but as soon as they look up, they see a few servants in the hall, their eyes are in the hall, and they can't help but feel a pang in their hearts, and they are buried in hard food one by one.
A bowl of buckwheat rice was swallowed hard, and the happy expression on Emperor Nanxing's face was no longer seen: "Send a bowl to the queen, isn't she going to eat fasting and chant Buddha, repair pagodas, and pray for the victims?" In the future, let her eat three times a day, and she will eat buckwheat as food, and suffer with the people, so as to show her sincerity. ”
As soon as these words came out, the ministers who supported the queen in the court and the central government had suffocated expressions, and they also knew that this time was self-defeating, and they regretted that their intestines were green.
Your Majesty tasted the 'suffering' of the people, and he would not think that the queen would have much sincerity in eating the carefully cooked vegetarian food in the imperial dining room every day, copying Buddhist scriptures in the Buddhist hall, and praying for the blessings of Xin'an County.
Rao is like this, and the news about the queen's mother's kindness and kindness that moved the heavens is still widely circulated in Beijing.
When the news reached the Yongwang Mansion, Jiang Jinghuang was silent for a long time, and asked the chief of the mansion: "Is the condition of the white female official still not improving?" ”
Changshi sighed: "I invited many famous doctors, and they all said that there is no doctor for the madness of the white female official." ”
Jiang Jinghuang frowned: "Over the years, her condition has clearly improved, and she has had a short period of sobriety before, how can she have no medical treatment?" ”
"The doctors believe that the white lady was stimulated by some kind of stimulus, so that she would wake up for a short time," Changshi paused and said, "If we can know what happened to the white lady before she went crazy, maybe she can be cured." ”
This is also the purpose of His Highness's medical consultation for many years.
