"Miss, it's dawn, it's time to get up."

Lan'er pushed open the door of the inner room, came in with a basin of water, and whispered to Bai Qiurui to get up.

"Hmmm......"

Bai Qiurui was lying on the bed in a daze, her body attached to the soft quilt, and she didn't have the slightest idea of getting up.

After a busy day yesterday, it was dark before returning home in danger, Bai Qiurui just wants to sleep lazy now.

The curtain of the bed was lifted by the little girl, and Lan'er came to Bai Qiurui's bedside.

"Miss, didn't you say that you were asked to wake up earlier today?"

The little girl shook Bai Qiurui lightly and successfully woke up her own young lady.

"What time is it......"

Bai Qiurui opened her eyes in a daze, saw the little girl's enlarged face in front of her, and muttered.

Lan'er sat up for her, smiling and saying that it was past breakfast time.

"Miss, it's good that you came back in time last night, otherwise the slave really wouldn't know what to do."

Squinting and stretching out her hands, Bai Qiurui let Lan'er immerse herself in dressing. Thinking of the speed of life and death last night, her head also cleared up a lot.

Last night's Bai Yueyue came prepared, but fortunately, the little girl stopped her for a long time, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.

Thinking of this, Bai Qiurui couldn't help but look at Lan'er with relief: "It's all thanks to you, the little girl is now more and more impressive." ”

Lan'er was praised like this, and she was suddenly a little shy: "Miss...... The slave maid was also forced to stop the eldest lady out of desperation, and thought that she would be punished by the eldest lady. ”

Seeing that the little girl said a word timidly, her face was still a little afraid, Bai Qiurui remembered that when the original body was still alive before, the master and servant were often bullied by Bai Yueyue.

The little girl is loyal, and the previous punishments have been rushed to block the original body, which is very stupid and distressing.

"Silly girl, now your young lady is not what she used to be, and my father often comes to see us, where does she dare to beat you casually again."

Bai Qiurui comforted the little girl, and then got dressed and went to eat something hurriedly.

"Miss, Mrs. Yesterday asked about the master's birthday."

Bai Qiurui was eating a sugar packet, and when she heard the little girl's words, she immediately remembered that her father's birthday was coming.

King Ning's case is basically a certainty, and her marriage or something has long been cool.

Without the burden, Bai Qiurui is in a particularly good mood now, and after the little girl's reminder, she also took care of it.

I plan to think seriously about her father's birthday today, what would she have prepared better.

In the past, the original owner was not favored and went with her, but now she is the most well-behaved and sensible daughter in Bai Hong's eyes, but she can't spend no thought on her birthday.

"Miss makes a good dish, it's not as good as the master's birthday banquet Miss also makes a few ingenious dishes, the master must be happy."

Lan'er made a suggestion on the side, and the little girl was both surprised and happy with her young lady now.

Bai Qiurui thought a lot, but she thought about the ordinary precious playthings that her father had seen a lot, and she didn't know which category Bai Hong liked.

What's more, after getting along with her these days, she feels that her father likes to eat more than those rare playthings.

In the end, she accepted Lan'er's idea: "After thinking about it, only this one is the most appropriate." ”

decided to cook on his father's birthday, Bai Qiurui simply went to discuss with the Liu family, and asked his mother to go and tell Bai Hong about the birthday banquet.

Seeing that her mother agreed, Bai Qiurui was not worried that her beautiful mother would not be able to handle her father, and her mother would come forward, she could be regarded as preparing a surprise for her father.

It's just, what should you do with the dishes of the birthday banquet?

I had a headache and thought about it for a long time, and finally Bai Qiurui set a birthday banquet for her father's birthday, and she made a simplified version of the 'Confucian Mansion Banquet'.

As a food blogger, Bai Qiurui's previous life was not only to study modern food dishes, but also to study the gradually evolving food of ancient times.

In the world of the previous life, as soon as they heard about ancient food, many people would say the words 'Manchu and Han full banquet' as soon as they opened their mouths.

In fact, the Manchu and Han banquets were indeed one of the forms of banquets on important occasions in ancient times.

However, the form of banquets in ancient times was not limited to the 'Manchu and Han banquets'.

In addition, there are 'Confucian Banquet', 'Wenhui Banquet', 'Roasted Tail Banquet', 'Whole Duck Banquet' and so on.

Among them, the most well-known 'Manchu and Han banquets' was the court feast during the Qing Dynasty.

It not only has the characteristics of palace cuisine, but also carries the different flavors of various places, and it is also the largest banquet form among other banquets.

But in fact, in the final analysis, the original 'Manchu and Han full banquet' did not originate from the imperial meal, but from the officialdom cuisine of Jiangnan.

Originally, it was specially prepared by the people of Yangzhou for the 'six divisions and hundred officials' who went to Yangzhou to inspect.

Bai Qiurui in the previous life searched through the data and classics, and finally came to the conclusion that the 'Manchu and Han Quanxi' should have originated in Yangzhou.

Such a large banquet was too grand, and the number of dishes was as high as one hundred and eight, Bai Qiurui naturally ruled it out without hesitation.

Not to mention the extravagance of cooking so many dishes, it is a question whether you can finish eating or not.

Moreover, if she made so many dishes on her father's birthday, if it was spread out, she was afraid that her father would be burned.

Comparatively speaking, the form of 'Confucian Banquet' is very suitable for doing it on birthdays.

Just because the Confucian banquet is the essence of Chinese culture, after more than 2,000 years, it is still prosperous.

Not only that, but it invited the emperor and ministers to the banquet, including all kinds of relatives and nobles, and invited the folk family banquet, weddings, funerals, and weddings.

It is mainly based on the rank of the monarch or the father and son, with different regulations, which is perfectly compatible with people's needs.

All in all, there is only one sentence: the culmination of Chinese banquets, thoughtful etiquette and rigorous procedures.

In the end, Bai Qiurui finalized several ingenious famous dishes of the Confucian banquet: fairy duck, poetry ginkgo, and finally the indispensable Yipin longevity peach.

These three dishes, the others are all easy to do, only the most important ginkgo biloba in Shili Ginkgo, Bai Qiurui didn't know where to look for it for a while.

Just as she was concentrating on thinking about the birthday banquet, and even took a pen and paper to write down important matters, Lan'er beside her didn't know when to leave, and now hurried back with a box.

"Miss, Miss Sui just asked someone to hand over the things and let the slave bring them to you."

When Bai Qiurui heard this, she paused: "Sister Sui has been here?" ”

Lan'er walked in front of Bai Qiurui with a delicate box in her hand, and then nodded and spoke.

"Miss Sui just gave the slave a box in front of the door, saying that it was for the young lady, you can see it at a glance, and then left."

Bai Qiurui took the wooden box in Lan'er's hand, and knew that this box should have been handed over by Shen Yuan to Sui Hong.

She removed the pen and paper from the table and placed the box in front of her.

This box is delicate and simple, and it is quite heavy in the hand.

Bai Qiurui shook his spirit, and then heard that there seemed to be a box inside.

She raised an eyebrow and opened the wooden box.

The moment I caught my eye, there was a letter inside. In addition, there is a small wooden box that is familiar.

Bai Qiurui recognized it at a glance, this was really the one she had put the ice silk handkerchief before.

Unfolding the envelope, this time the letter was slightly longer than the previous two times, Bai Qiurui swept it roughly, and found that it was about Meng Beihe.

Looking at it carefully, the letter told him that after the separation last night, Shen Yuan returned to the Criminal Department and transferred the guards to Ziyang Temple overnight.

When I rushed back to the criminal department, there was already some movement in the view.

After Shen Yuan arrived, Meng Beihe informed him that King Ning had absconded from the mansion with the intention of assassinating the emperor and his clan relatives in Ziyangguan.

Moreover, he personally took King Ning to identify the place where the gunpowder was buried, and the latter 'confessed' and 'willingly' received the charge, and has now been secretly imprisoned in the prison.

Immediately afterwards, the entourage of Lord Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites came to report in a 'panic'.

It is said that Wei Yuanlong, the Marquis of Zhenbei, was also found absconding, and somehow accidentally died at the foot of the mountain outside the Ziyang Temple.

Shen Yuan escorted King Ning back to the Punishment Department, and asked people to carry back the body of Wei Yuanlong, Marquis of Zhenbei.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he returned to the Criminal Department, King Ning 'took the initiative' to explain everything.

He colluded with Wei Yuanlong to abscond and assassinate the emperor together, and the two had a conflict halfway, and it was he who killed Wei Yuanlong.

After reading it, Bai Qiurui sighed at the same time, but also felt that Meng Beihe was too powerful, whether it was scheming or means, he was very incomparable.

Come to think of it, Ning Wang Han Chengyu's 'voluntary' confession is duplicitous 'voluntary'.

Bai Qiurui suddenly wanted to laugh, laughing at Han Chengyu's exhaustion, and he had also tasted being framed once, and he was still hard to argue.

I don't know what method Meng Beihe used to make him obediently carry this life-threatening black cauldron.

And Shen Yuan was even simpler, he directly told the emperor according to Meng Beihe's original words.

Emperor Long Yan was furious, and even postponed the sacrifice to the sky, and in just one night, the excerpts of the book were about to bury him.

Bai Qiurui was noncommittal about this situation, and after understanding the ins and outs, she moved her attention to the separate box.

The heavy weight of the box comes from this small wooden box.

After Bai Qiurui opened it, her expression was instantly amazing.

I saw that in the box, there was a finely carved dagger lying quietly, and on its body, there was still the familiar green bamboo brocade handkerchief.

Yesterday, they fell into the secret passage of Ziyang Temple, and Shen Yuan was accidentally injured.

In a hurry, Bai Qiurui took out the handkerchief for bandaging.

Right now, the Jinpa in the box is clean and fresh, as if it has been washed cleanly.

Bai Qiurui untied the brocade on the dagger, the plain white silk face looked very comfortable, and the jade bamboo was very set against Shen Yuan's indifferent temperament.

"Boom-"

Easily pulling out the dagger in the iron sheath, the snow-white and cold blade flashed with a ray of cold light, invisibly revealing a trace of chill.

This dagger is sharp and cold, and it is a rare good thing.

Bai Qiurui remembered the small attic that day when she first entered the punishment department, and on the second floor of the small attic, she sent a god to get the dagger on the shelf.

In the end, she was stopped by Shen Yuan, and mistakenly thought that she liked the dagger, and said that if she liked it, she would give her another handle.

She hadn't paid attention to it, but if she hadn't seen this delicate and beautiful dagger, she would have almost forgotten what had happened at that time.

This person has a good memory, and he has been thinking about it without saying anything, and he really made a gift for her.

Putting the dagger back into its sheath, a smile appeared on Bai Qiurui's lips.

Lan'er looked at her young lady's expression, she had already guessed seven, seven, eight, eight, eight

It's a pity that the good times didn't last long before they were ruthlessly disturbed.

Bai Qiurui was playing with the dagger, and he saw a figure walking towards him from a distance.

When I looked closely, it was Zhou Huaiyuan.

remembered that day when I went shopping with Lan'er and met him and was humiliated, and I coincidentally ate at the same table later.

As the male protagonist of the original book, Bai Qiurui subconsciously wanted to stay away from him.

Even though the trajectory of her own fate has changed now, and she is 108,000 miles away from the original book, she will always be a little vigilant.

So, before Zhou Huaiyuan walked in front of Bai Qiurui, he saw the little girl frowning at him.

Why, I don't want to see her like this?

Zhou Huaiyuan was a little depressed in his heart, but he still had a consistent smile on his face.

"White girl, don't come unharmed."

Bai Qiurui stood up and saluted: "Gongzi Zhou, I haven't congratulated the emperor for your blue eyes. ”

There were only two sentences in Shen Yuan's letter, and by the way, Zhou Huaiyuan contributed a lot to the case of King Ning, and was responsible for investigating the truth, which was quite praised.

Zhou Huaiyuan was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then smiled warmly: "Thank you, brother is sick, as the second son, he should contribute." ”

Let him participate in King Ning's case, but I am afraid that it is not the prince of the Pingyuan Marquis Mansion.

Nine times out of ten, the Marquis of Pingyuan didn't want his eldest son to come out and offend the imperial family, so he picked Zhou Huaiyuan, an unpopular concubine, to come out and be a villain.

It's hard for this person, but he can also be obedient and do it, and he can do it to make the emperor happy.

The thought in her heart turned, and Bai Qiurui flattered her for a few words and wanted to find an excuse to go back to her small courtyard.

Who knows, she forgot that Zhou Huaiyuan is the male protagonist of the original book, and she may not have other skills, but her kung fu is quite good.

Not only can I talk to you about business, but I can also talk to you about life, ideals, and who to marry in the future......

So, after Bai Qiurui just said two words, 'Zhou Gongzi is hard', the other party immediately picked up and didn't give her an excuse to run away.

"Where, now my brother needs to take medicine every day, and his health has not improved, so I can only try my best."

Bai Qiurui was surprised when she heard this: "You say, the prince needs to take medicine every day when he is sick?" ”

This is an excuse to say that you are unwell, and you don't really need to drink medicine, right?

Co-author, is the eldest prince of the Pingyuan Marquis Mansion really sick?

A big question mark crossed Bai Qiurui's heart, and then a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in her mind, and her heart sank.

She actually forgot that King Ning's matter had passed, and it was time for the male protagonist of the original book to start showing his edge.

Now Zhou Huaiyuan, isn't that exactly like this?!
