96 Chowder

The moonlight is sultry.

Xuan Feng brought a plate of fried rabbit meat, and then brought a bottle of wine to Biyue.

"Biyue, the fingertip knife is ready, here you go."

Biyue took the locket and opened it to see that it was such a delicate fingertip knife, she immediately put it on her hand and tried the feel.

"How did you give it to me? The princess said that when it is finished, she will give it to me immediately. ”

"Hehe... The princess is busy... Biyue, are you hungry? I brought you a plate of rabbit meat. ”

Biyue glanced at him curiously, it's this hour, she has already had dinner, how can she be hungry, but when it comes to rabbit meat, she is a little greedy, and she can't help but open the food box in his hand.

The aroma of stir-fried rabbit meat comes to the nose.

"Then eat some."

Biyue smacked her lips.

Xuan Feng's heart moved, this little lip smacking look is too cute.

"I still have a bottle of wine here, I heard that this wine is slightly strong, not sweet."

Biyue looked at him suspiciously, as if he knew that he liked rabbit meat and didn't like sweets, what happened today?

However, it was late at night, and it was not convenient for the man to enter her room, so she pointed to the pavilion in the courtyard.

"Let's go eat there."

"Okay, you wear more, it's cold outside."

Xuan Feng looked at Biyue eating with a satisfied face, full of joy, she has such a thin body, she is practicing every day, how can she stand it if she doesn't eat much.

Biyue didn't move his chopsticks when he saw him, but just watched himself eat quietly, and he didn't feel very strange.

"What's wrong with you?"

"You're too thin, eat more."

“…… You're wondering what happened today? ”

Xuan Feng's heart beat faster, and he was so nervous that he could clearly hear the sudden pulsation of his head, and he mustered up all his strength to confess to Biyue.

"Biyue, I like you - the way you eat rabbit meat..."

When the words came to his lips, he changed his tone.

Biyue furrowed her eyebrows, looking at Xuan Feng, who was stunned, could this be a confession to herself?

Her heart was pounding, too.

"How do you know I like rabbit meat?"

Xuan Feng replied honestly: "The princess told me..."

"The princess really has a heart..."

Biyue didn't expect that her love for rabbit meat would be discovered by Lin Yi, but she really couldn't remember when she had eaten rabbit meat in front of Lin Yi.

"Then you... Why are you preparing rabbit meat for me..."

Why is this mouth so stupid, Xuan Feng wanted to confess but couldn't say a word, he really wanted to incite himself a few mouths.

Looking at Biyue's cold and bright face in the moonlight, Xuan Feng took a deep breath and let it out.

"Biyue, I've always been pleased with you."

He didn't dare look her in the eye, just held his breath and waited for her reaction.

"Hmm."

Biyue immediately got up and turned her back to him, and her little face was as red as an apple at this time.

Suddenly, she sped towards her room.

Looking at her departing back, Xuan Feng jumped up in panic.

What does this "um" mean?

Why did she walk away?

Did it scare her?

Xuan Feng regretted it infinitely, standing in place in despair, if he didn't say anything, he could still accompany her to practice, and now that he has pierced that layer of paper, how can he get it back?

He was depressed and at a loss, looking at the rabbit meat on the table, he really wanted to fry himself.

At this time, Biyue ran towards him with light steps.

"This is a throat lozenge, the princess taught me to make it a few days ago. I saw that you have a cough these days, so I made one and gave it to you. ”

Biyue took his hand and shoved a white porcelain bottle into his hand.

"Thank you, thank you."

Xuan Feng swept away the previous loss, her eyes flashed, great, she didn't refuse herself.

Biyue pursed her lips and smiled.

"Biyue, the rabbit meat is cold, I'll go find the cook to heat it up again."

"No, I'm full. Why don't you come with me? ”

Biyue smiled shyly, then turned around and slowly walked towards the flower bed.

At this time, Xuan Feng seemed to have opened up the second pulse of Ren Du, his whole body was comfortable and his mind was clear, and he followed with joy.

The two took advantage of the moonlight to take a walk in the courtyard for a while.

Although he didn't say anything, everything was silent.

Knock Knock –

It's time for a child.

Xuan Feng looked up at the moon and said reluctantly: "It's not early, I'll send you back." ”

"Hmm."

Biyue was just about to push open the door of the wing room, when she suddenly remembered some small things recently.

"Xuanfeng, Cuixi's girl has been a little weird lately."

"What's wrong?"

Xuan Feng casually pushed her into the house, and stood at the door honestly.

The fireplace in the house was blazing, and Biyue unbuttoned her cloak.

"She seems to be very concerned about the whereabouts of the princess, I don't know if she thinks too much."

"Well, everyone likes the princess very much, they must care about her, you go to bed early, I'll go first."

Xuan Feng didn't think much about it, after all, Lin Yi was kind to people, and the servants liked her very much.

When he returned to the inner court, he saw the ploughman with his head drooping and looking tired.

Xuan Feng was a little puzzled, he didn't have any tasks recently, why did he look like this?

"Brother Xuan, don't ask."

“……”

Plough Shang handed a bag in his hand to Xuan Feng.

Xuan Feng took the bag suspiciously, and it seemed that the contents were squirming.

When he opened it, it was full of mice, with shiny fur, but they were all a little wilted.

“…… There are so many rats in the house? ”

"There are no rats in the house, so I went to catch them in the fields."

“……”

Xuan Feng frowned, he didn't sleep in the middle of the night, and went to catch mice?!

As if seeing his doubts, Lishang sighed and said, "The princess's order." ”

Xuan Feng was speechless, although the princess is indeed different from ordinary women, but what do you want a mouse to do?

Did you hear it right?

"The princess wants mice...?"

"Yes, the master said that the rats in the city were too dirty, so he specially asked me to go to Uncle Xu's field to catch them."

Xuan Feng patted Plough Shang on the shoulder sympathetically, the farmland of the former agricultural secretary Xu Bo was two hours away from the capital, and it was really difficult to catch a mouse.

However, the mice that Li Shang worked hard to catch were helpless in Lin Yi's eyes, in fact, it was enough to catch five or six, there was really no need for so many.

"Biyue, the rats caught by the plough are quite fat, alas, the number... That's a lot. ”

"This is the mouse that the ploughman went to catch in the field."

Lin Yi snorted in a deep voice, is this the so-called vole? No wonder I always feel that it looks different from ordinary mice, honest and fat, and looks very delicious.

"Then I'll choose a few, and take the rest to the kitchen to give Shui Han a little fried rat meat."

“……”

Biyue forcibly suppressed the feeling of wanting to sigh, she really didn't understand that the princess actually wanted to eat these dense animals.

"Princess, the master may not eat these things..."

Lin Yi said with a smile: "I haven't eaten it either, I feel that it should taste good, anyway, I will have to breed mice at that time, and there will be endless scarcity of children and grandchildren, and there will be a steady stream of mouse meat." ”

Saying that, Lin Yi came out with a vole from the cage.

The coat color is brown and yellow, the tail is short, to be honest, it is not easy to catch, but Lin Yi still grabbed its back and firmly controlled it in the palm of his hand.

Female.

Lin Yi carefully put it in the bag on the side.

Biyue froze to the side, her mind was full of continuous rats, she finally couldn't bear it!

Whoa—

Biyue hurriedly covered her mouth, but fortunately she didn't spit out anything.

Lin Yi couldn't help but turn his head to look at her.

"The princess forgives her sins."

"But what's wrong?"

Lin Yi put down the vole in her hand and hurriedly walked in front of Biyue, she instinctively grabbed Biyue's arm and prepared to take her pulse.

Biyue remembered that Lin Yi had grabbed the mouse's hand just now, and couldn't help but step back.

"Slaves, slaves and maids are fine."

Lin Yi was slightly stunned, always feeling that something was wrong.

"Biyue, are you really okay?"

“… No, it's okay. ”

Lin Yi sighed, she rarely saw Biyue like this, was it because she said something to Xuan Feng yesterday?

"Biyue, what did Xuanfeng say to you?"

Biyue's face turned red, why did she suddenly mention this stubble?

It seems that Xuan Feng must have said something, Lin Yi couldn't help but get nervous, although she felt that the two were very compatible, but what if it was a ruthless flow of flowers?

"How do you feel about Xuanfeng?"

"Slave... Felt... Brother Xuan is very good. ”

"That's it!"

Lin Yi clapped her hands and applauded, revealing a motherly smile.

"When I saw Shui Han, I immediately told him, hurry up and let you get married."

"No, no, Princess, not yet, to get to that point, please Princess-"

Biyue was so anxious that she didn't know what to say, Xuanfeng did confess to herself yesterday, although she was also interested in him in her heart, but she wouldn't get married immediately.

Lin Yigege laughed, but it's right to think about it, you can't rush emotional matters, people may have just pierced that layer of paper, and they are too gossipy!

She turned around and was about to continue picking voles, when she suddenly found that the voles she had just picked had escaped from the sack!

"Oops, the rat ran away, Biyue, we have to catch the rat first!"

Biyue swallowed, looking overwhelmed.

"Biyue! Biyue! It seems to be there! ”

Lin Yi pouted her ass and half of her body got into the bed, and the direction of her finger was the corner of the bed.

"Biyue, I'll take something and drive it out, and you'll catch it later."

Biyue finally couldn't hold back and confessed: "Princess, the slave is not good!" Slaves are afraid of mice! ”

Afraid of rats?

Lin Yi came out, looked at Biyue with a crying and mournful face, and finally understood why she was like that just now.

"Then you hurry up and go out and call someone who is not afraid of mice, although I am not afraid of it, but I don't know martial arts, I can't run it at all, this thing is cute, but I can't let it scare the cold."

Cute and cute......

Biyue felt that her aesthetics were inconsistent with Lin Yi.

"Biyue, quick! Fast! It seems to have run out! Get out of here, and remember to close the door! ”

A small black ball scurried out.

Biyue was slightly stunned, then flew out with a swish, saw the guards at the gate of the courtyard, and shouted directly: "Princess, princess, inside the house-"

The guard looked at Biyue with a confused expression, he had never seen her so nervous.

"Bi guard, you say slowly, what happened to the princess?"

The questioner was the Yulin Guard, who was a branch of the Yulin Army, specializing in protecting the prince, and could be described as an orthodox guard.

But after coming to the Han King's Mansion, he knew that Bi Yue, Xuan Feng and others were the guards recruited by the Han King, not only were they strong in martial arts, but they were also called differently.

The prince's personal soldiers, what will happen to them and become out of proportion?

"Tong Guard, old, mouse, there are rats in the princess's house......"

“……”

Yu Linwei, whose name is Tong Weiyan, and Cheng Xian, who is also Yu Linwei next to him, glanced at each other, they wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, so they could only hold their breath for a while to calm down.

"Bi guard, the princess's inner room, I'm afraid it's not appropriate for us to go in."

Biyue stomped her foot, she also knew that it was wrong, it wasn't impossible.

"However, if the princess is bitten by a rat, we can't afford it......"

Cheng Xian was silent for a moment, and nodded to Tong Yuyan, the princess's safety comes first.

Before, because they didn't stop the Chu County Lord, they were almost corporal punishment, and they knew the status of the princess in the prince's mind.

"Bi guard, please lead the way."

A few people didn't take a few steps before they heard the sound of Lin Yihehe's fluttering sound from inside the house.

Biyue took a deep breath, shouted "Princess" and pushed the door open.

The house was really in a mess, Lin Yi was drilling around, and the hairpin on his head had already been crooked, because he couldn't reach the mouse, so he could only shake it around with a towel.

Seeing that it was the guards at the gate of the courtyard, Lin Yi looked embarrassed, she had the impression that these two guards were meticulous and did not say a few words.

"That, I'm sorry, Tong Guard, Cheng Guard, this vole runs quite fast, hehehe......"

Tong Weiyan and Cheng Xian were also slightly embarrassed, this was the first time they entered the princess's inner room, it seemed to be a little different from the ordinary woman's inner room, except for the gorgeous wardrobe and hanger that could show that the owner was a woman, everything else was close to the feeling of the prince's bedroom.

"The subordinate is rude."

The two bowed and stepped into Lin Yi's house.

Lin Yi wiped the beads of sweat from his head, and simply retreated to the door and closed the door.

"Biyue, I'm sorry, I wronged you, I didn't expect you to be so afraid of mice, but unfortunately I don't know martial arts, so I can't catch it at all. That gadget is running too fast! ”

"Princess, it's useless to be a slave, even a mouse is afraid ......"

"How did this become useless, although I am not afraid of mice, but there are many other things to be afraid of."

Biyue glanced at Lin Yi, although she didn't know martial arts, she didn't seem to be afraid of anything!

What will the princess be afraid of?

After a while, the door opened.

Tong Weiyan walked out with a dead mouse.

"Princess Qiyu, the rat has been killed by his subordinates."

"There are Lao Tong guards......"

Looking at the corpse of the vole, Lin Yi felt a little regretful, this female vole looked quite healthy, and she could definitely give birth to many cubs.

Cheng Xian glanced at Lin Yi cautiously, thinking of the cage of rats on the table in the room, he still asked.

"Princess, my subordinates see that there is still a cage of rats in the house, but do you have to deal with it by your subordinates?"

Lin Yi couldn't help but laugh, it was a plow that was finally caught, how could he deal with it casually!

"No, no, those rats have a lot of uses."

"Yes."

"By the way, Tong Guard, Cheng Guard, those are not mice, they are voles."

“……”

Tong Weiyan glanced at the mouse corpse in his hand, what difference is this?

"Rats are dirty, so I don't recommend eating them, but voles should taste good, so I suggest you can try them for dinner."

Biyue lowered her head expressionlessly, sure enough, Lin Yi was a different woman.

Tong Yuyan looked at the mouse corpse in his hand with a complicated expression, can this thing still be eaten?

He glanced at Biyue with some sympathy, such a princess is a little difficult to serve.

Cheng Xian stared at the mouse corpse thoughtfully, this little thing moves very fast, it seems that the meat is very firm, maybe it tastes good, you can taste it for dinner!

When Qin Shuihan arrived at Jinghan Pavilion, Lin Yi was sitting at the table reading a book, today's room seemed to be very neat, everything looked like it had just been tidied up, he couldn't help but glance at Lin Yi suspiciously.

"Are you here, have you had dinner?"

"Not yet."

"What's in your hand?"

Qin Shuihan put the cage in his hand on the table, it was an iron cage with a small squirrel in it.

"Squirrel?"

Lin Yi's eyes lit up, this tail is so cute.

"Do you like it?"

"Well, it's a pity that there is only one, and the number is too small."

“……”

Qin Shuihan looked confused, Yiyi likes squirrels so much? Want a lot of them?

"You... How many do you want? ”

Lin Yi smiled slightly, she went to the kitchen just now to see Chef Li, there is not much meat after a dozen mice are killed, it is definitely not enough for the people in the mansion to eat, but fortunately, not everyone accepts vole meat, but she is very greedy, because the taste is too fragrant.

"I think if I want to fry a little, I might have to catch a dozen or so."

Gift?

Qin Shuihan suspected that his ears had heard it wrong.

"Yiyi, you want to eat squirrel meat?"

Lin Yi scratched his head and asked puzzledly, "Then what?" Do you want to keep it as a pet? ”

She approached the cage and looked at the squirrels inside, it was actually very troublesome to raise animals, if it weren't for the deletion of drugs, she really didn't want to raise voles.

Qin Shuihan was very puzzled, what was Yiyi asking Lishang to catch mice for?

Lin Yi looked at him with a puzzled expression, and she was also a little puzzled.

"And what did you catch it for?"

"Lishang said you want mice, I thought you liked small animals, and thought squirrels were cuter than mice, so I caught one and gave it to you."

Lin Yi picked at her skirt with her fingers, it seemed that she didn't make it clear, and she had spoken too much, and she had completely changed her meaning.

"Shui Han, you sit down first, I'll let the maids serve the food, and talk to you while eating."

Lin Yi walked to the door and shouted Cui Xi Caiyun and ordered them to serve the food.

Looking at today's dinner, Qin Shuihan noticed one of the dishes he didn't recognize.

"Shui Han, what about me, I want mice to test medicine, not to be a pet, Lishang seems to have misunderstood what I mean, and caught a lot of voles, but I only need four of them."

She pointed to the dish that Qin Shuihan didn't recognize.

"This is the fate of the remaining voles, I think it's delicious, but some people don't eat it, do you want to taste it?"

After speaking, Lin Yi sandwiched a piece of vole meat and put it in his mouth, and sure enough, it was low fat and high protein, and it tasted good.

Qin Shuihan sneered, it turned out to be vole meat, but it smelled really fragrant, and he naturally took a piece and put it in his mouth, the meat was firm and tender.

Not bad!

"Yiyi, you don't have any resistance to mice, why don't you like bear paws?"

Lin Yi was slightly stunned, it turned out that he knew that he didn't like bear meat.

"There's no guilt in eating mice, bears are different."

Qin Shuihan took a sip of wine and asked, "Why is the bear different?" ”

Lin Yi remembered the news of people taking bear bile in the present world, and in order to continuously take bear bile, he imprisoned the bear and inserted a catheter into its gallbladder.

The bear was tortured to death, and it was really pitiful.

"Some animals are poultry that can be domesticated by us, such as chickens, ducks, pigs, cows, and provide us with meat. There are also animals that reproduce too quickly, such as mice, and these animals can't eat them all. But bears are different, they are not many in the first place, and they can't be kept in captivity, so I feel like one less to eat..."

Qin Shuihan thought for a while, although what Yiyi said was good, he still didn't see the causal relationship.

"What happens if you eat all the bears?"

Lin Yi put down her chopsticks, this question was not easy to answer, but she felt the need to convince Qin Shuihan.

"Loneliness."

"Loneliness?"

"If we eat all the bears, and later our children ask us what bears are, we can't show them, what a pity."

Qin Shuihan squinted, recalling the time when he faced off against Xiong.

It was really a behemoth, very ferocious, and it was necessary for its children to learn to defeat the bear, and it did have a point in existing.

"Well, yes, bears are still very useful."

Lin Yi thought that he understood the importance of biodiversity, curled the corners of his mouth, and took another piece of vole meat with chopsticks.

is worthy of being his own male god, just a little bit!
