Xia Qingqing said confidently: "Just wait for my good news!" ”

Duchess Qingguo asked again: "What is this osmanthus cake?" This layer sprinkled on top of it, I ate like honey. ”

Before Xia Qingqing could answer, the fourth sister-in-law preemptively said: "Madam, you are really amazing, this is my favorite, I often invite Qingqing to make it for me, I know that this is made of glutinous rice flour sugar and honey osmanthus as raw materials, the fragrance and smell of osmanthus are very strong, the entrance is delicate and soft and glutinous, I feel a little cool when I first eat it, and the more I eat, the more I like it." ”

"Yes, yes, yes, I love it too." The Ninth Princess reached out and picked up a piece of pastry, put it in her mouth, and said while eating: "You are so amazing, I adore you so much!" In the future, you will be the second person I admire the most besides my father. ”

"Look at this plum blossom cake, jade belt cake, Dingsheng cake, white fruit honey cake. There are also jujube paste sesame cakes. I like everything so much, be sure to tell me how to make it. ”

"Ninth sister, you have to eat less, and later my father will light a bonfire in the center. Isn't it your favorite bite of the antelope and venison that is browned and crispy, and the gravy makes a sizzling sound when you bite into it? Be careful that you can't eat it for a while, and you should be reluctant to make a fuss about it. ”

Hearing this, the ninth princess said naughtily: "A little bit, I'll eat a little bit." At the same time, he stretched out his little hand and made it look bigger than a fingernail.

made everyone laugh, talk and laugh, and time passed quickly.

The sound of galloping horses was heard in the distance, and the Duchess of Qingguo said: "I think it's the emperor, they are back, let's all go to greet them." ”

The crowd dismounted and stirred up a cloud of dust.

"See the Emperor."

"Excuse me."

"Father, what good things have you caught?" The ninth princess ran to the emperor's side with a coquettish smile and asked.

The emperor took her little hand and said, "I caught the wild deer you wanted, how can you thank your father?" Tell me what you've been doing with your sisters this morning. ”

The emperor took the hand of the ninth princess and walked slowly, and the ministers were also counting the items.

Xia Qingqing greeted him and said to his grandfather: "Tired grandfather, hurry back and rest and change your clothes, presumably the bonfire dinner will start in a while." ”

The old prince said matter-of-factly: "Wait a minute", and then touched and touched it next to the saddle, when Xia Qingqing was puzzled, the old prince touched out a delicate flower like a trick, and there was a white stamen dotted between the four fiery red petals, which was the three-leaf clover.

This kind of flower is actually not difficult to find, but it is difficult to find the trifolium that really has four leaves.

Xia Qingqing's eyes turned red and said, "Grandfather, how long do you have to look for this?" This flower is common, and it can be found on the side of the road. It's only four leaves, and it's so difficult to cultivate that even the top gardeners in the Imperial Palace haven't succeeded in cultivating one. It is mostly rumors from rural people. ”

The old prince patted her shoulder with pity, handed her the flower and said, "It's just a folk legend." If you like me, then ask someone to find me, and it won't take much effort. ”

"Folk rumors say that those who get this flower will get everything they want, don't be too gullible, it's a country rumor.

"I happened to meet you and brought it back to you."

Saying that, he waved his hand, as if he was embarrassed to see Xia Qingqing, who had red eyes, and walked away quickly with a smoke.

She looked at the back of the old prince, she didn't know what to use to repay this kindness, she felt terrified, after all, she had never felt the care of her relatives, and if someone was kind to her, she didn't know how to reciprocate.

Xiaoqing, who was beside him, handed over a handkerchief and said, "Miss has been sitting for an afternoon, let's go back and change our clothes." ”

Xia Qingqing sniffed and said, "Okay, let's go!" ”

Back in the room, Midori was helping her grate with a grate.

Her eyes wandered, and her mind kept flashing images of her grandfather with her.

One moment it was her grandfather who lovingly told her to add more clothes in the cold weather, and the other time it was her grandfather who doted on her and said that no matter how much jewelry she liked to buy, as long as she liked it, why not buy more? After a while, it was his grandfather's teachings when he talked to him about chess.

Scenes flashed in front of her eyes, which strengthened her heart to protect her family.

In terms of state affairs, it is impossible for her family to go further, and what other way can increase the bargaining chips?

Let the emperor dare not kill the killer even if he is suspicious, she keeps thinking in her mind that the people are inseparable from the four words of clothing, food, housing and transportation, whether it is the current state of peace and security, or the turbulent previous dynasty.

After all, it is money that is inseparable!

Money!

She suddenly opened her eyes, the more money she wanted, the more money she wanted, so much money that she could make her family live as freely as she did now, even if she lost her royal palace and royal protection one day.

The third prince got up from the couch, and the entourage carefully put on his outer robes for him. Serve with a sachet.

He looked at his long hair in the bronze mirror, his face was pale, and he said with satisfaction: "After all, I look like a bit of a patient, and it's not in vain that I haven't eaten water and rice for the past two days."

"The prince has suffered, and after a few years of patience, when all the dust settles, we will go to the fiefdom and never return to this capital for the rest of our lives." Ye Feng, the leader of the guards, said.

The third prince stiffened his face, his face was slightly cold, and he did not answer. He took a white jade wrench and put it on his hand. said lightly: "Let's go, finish singing the play in front of you first."

In the evening, a high bonfire was lit in the center of the hunting ground, and the emperor and his ministers were seated, and the three princes were late.

He bowed his head and said, "The son of the emperor will see his father."

I don't know if it's too noisy around, or the emperor really doesn't want to deal with him, so he continued to talk and laugh with the old prince as if he hadn't heard it, and then the chief eunuch Fu'an took a smart step forward and said: "Your Majesty, you see that the venison has been roasted, and the old slave will help you cut some of it, and eat it mixed with Su Ziye to remove the greasy and very sweet."

The emperor followed his gaze and looked up, facing the three princes standing beside him.

Fu'an flicked his sleeves and retreated with a few little eunuchs.

The emperor said, "When did the third prince come?" Why don't you add more clothes? Is your face still so ugly? ”

The third prince replied: "Qiqi's father and sons have a low-grade fever due to falling into the water,"

"In that case, sit down quickly." The emperor turned his head nonchalantly and continued to talk to the old prince.

Xia Qingqing, who was on the side, was hiding behind and eating happily, and said while eating: "Xiaoqing, that, bring me a little plum meat, this, this, give me a little belly meat."

While eating, I sighed: It's still good ancient meat! Walking around the mountains and fields, the meat is delicate, full of fragrance, and the aftertaste is endless, which is very different from the meat quality in captivity the day after tomorrow!

was eating energetically, and listened to the report from the chamberlain: "Your Majesty, the ministers have obtained a lot of prey, and the following is a roll call." ”

The emperor was overjoyed when he heard the report, and said to the old prince beside him: "Look at the outstanding young talents of our dynasty, it is not easy to hunt so many things in the past two days."

Lao Wang also complimented on the side: "Everyone wants to show in front of the emperor, so naturally they are doing their best."

Everyone sat on the side, listening to the emperor's praise, and they were also excited.

Fu'an handed the list to the emperor and continued: "The emperor is only the first champion, and the candidate has not yet been determined, but the white tiger of the eldest prince and the horse of the second prince are rare treasures. Ministers don't know who to rate as the best. ”

The emperor teased and quipped: "Is that because you don't know how to choose?" Obviously, none of them dared to offend, for fear that the second prince would be hated by the second prince. The eldest prince was not happy to choose the second prince, and the old people who were treacherous and slippery threw this problem to me. As he spoke, he threw the roster to Zhuo, and Prime Minister Wen, who was closest to the two people, was stunned and picked up his wine glass.

The old prince raised his eyebrows, and said thoughtfully: "The Holy Sacred Heart is dictatorial, and he must have made a decision in his heart. Whether it is the eldest prince or the second prince, this year's top spot has fallen on your family. ”

The emperor was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "You old slippery head, in this game, you are the most slippery." ”

The old prince smiled, revealing a mouthful of big teeth, and he couldn't show the tooth flower to the emperor.

The emperor gave him a roll of the eyes, then cleared his throat and said, "There are still two days before the end of the autumn hunt. All Aiqing still has the opportunity to fight. Don't be in a hurry, we'll see you on the last day. ”

Everyone was originally holding their breath, and Wang Senjun was even more prepared to defend the eldest prince, and looked at Du Yuheng with horizontal eyebrows, waiting for him to speak first.

The audience was silent for a moment, as if he didn't expect the emperor to pass over so perfunctorily, and then, Prime Minister Wen stood up and said in a circle: "Yes, everything is not over yet, it is too early to make a conclusion."

continued: "Your Majesty, taste this sika deer, which was captured by Chen Sheng, the commander of the forbidden army. This is a male deer with antlers the size of one and a half feet on his head, and he will be sent back to the palace for them to make ornaments and put them in your study, and keep them for your usual enjoyment. ”

The emperor said: "It's still Prime Minister Wen's intimacy."

He turned his head to look at the old prince and said, "What about you?" What did you get for me? Didn't you just pick a red flower for your little granddaughter? ”

The old prince shouted that he was wronged and said: "Holy Lord, you are unreasonable, it was obviously found under your nose, it can be said that you rewarded me, and the minister transferred it to Qingqing."

The emperor scolded with a smile: "You still have the face to say, obviously I saw it first." With a finger in your hand, you immediately jumped off the horse and plucked the flower directly into your arms, and you hid it before I could even take a second look. ”

Lao Wang also smiled: "Your Majesty, you are already the most noble person in the world."

"That saffron is also a rumor, say that the person who gets this safflower will get what you want, and you don't have anything you want, so it's better to give it to the little girl. Bless the little girl with a safe and smooth life. You can get what you want. ”

"Phew, you old puppeteer. On weekdays, you are enough to mess around, but now you can still talk about forcible robbery so high-soundingly. ”
