Chapter 163: Han Lian Crisp
"Huaying, accompany the palace to take a walk outside, okay?" In the afternoon, Qingchen saw that the weather outside was rare and sunny, so he spoke.
This is the first time Qingchen has spoken to Huaying so kindly, and in the past, she either raised her eyebrows coldly or ignored her, especially since Qingchen knew her real name and knew her past affairs, which made her feel terrified all the time. Today, when he saw Qingchen taking the initiative to speak, he immediately happily agreed.
Qingchen didn't bring other palace maids and eunuchs, only Huaying alone, and walked towards the imperial garden when he left the Fengzao Palace.
Although it was autumn weather and it had rained for such a long time, even the exotic flowers and plants in the palace could not withstand such wind and rain, and became a little scattered and dilapidated.
"Why is the princess in such a good mood today, thinking of going out for a walk?" Hua Ying remembered Xiao Ling's instructions and asked tentatively.
"It's too stuffy to stay in the Fengzao Palace for so long, and it's rare that the weather is good, so I went out for a walk. Qingchen said, "This palace heard that the autumn lotus in the Ningyue Palace is blooming well, I don't know if there is still one at this time." ”
"Back to the princess, because the first emperor Zhuang Concubine Niangniang loved lotus, so the first emperor specially got several rare varieties of lotus to ensure that there are lotus flowers in the palace all year round to watch, and later, these lotus flowers are taken care of by the gardeners of the imperial garden, even in autumn and winter, they also bloom very well. Flower Shadow replied, and spoke again, "If the princess wants to enjoy the lotus, please go this way." ”
Hearing this, Qingchen nodded with a smile, and let Huaying lead the way to Fuhui Lake, where the autumn lotus is blooming just right.
It is really a rare breed, and even in such cold weather, it blooms just as lushly. Especially soon after the rain, new lotuses have emerged, which is very good-looking.
"The red and white lotus flowers bloom in the pond, and the two colors are generally fragrant. Just like the three thousand women in the Han Palace, half heavy makeup and half light makeup. Qingchen looked at the lotus pond full of eyes, suddenly spoke, chanted a poem, and then swept his gaze over Huaying's face, observing her reaction.
But when I saw that Huaying heard this poem, there was a strange look in his eyes that flashed and disappeared quickly, but he couldn't escape Qingchen's eyes.
"I didn't expect Princess Jade Hook to be so interested in coming to this Furong Lake to enjoy the lotus. Suddenly, a woman's voice came from Qingchen's ear, saying this.
In this palace, he can move around freely and talk so arrogantly, except for Xiao Ling's concubine, he doesn't think about it. And Gu Yanru and Yang Shu are not in good health and have been cultivating in the Purple Smoke Palace, so the people who are talking to her now are naturally Yu Meiren and Su Cairen, who have no sense of presence in the palace.
Thinking of this, Qingchen looked up, but saw Yu Mei and Su Cairen walking slowly from a distance hand in hand, with a slightly sarcastic smile on their faces, and the expression on their faces seemed to be laughing at her, as Princess Yi, but she entered the palace and became the emperor's woman.
"The two little lords are auspicious. Qingchen didn't salute them, but out of politeness, he still said hello.
"There are some people in this world who are hypocritical, on the surface they are high, but in fact they are sluts in their bones. Su Cairen glanced at Qingchen and said.
"That's it, I thought that if I entered the Fengzao Palace, I would really become a phoenix, and I wasn't afraid of people laughing off their big teeth. Yu Meiren also nodded and said.
The two little masters had to speak more leisurely, and the wind flashed their tongues. Huaying listened on the sidelines, and when she saw the beauties saying such words, she couldn't help but open her mouth to fight for Qingchen.
"Presumptuous, what are you! A little slave is just talking like this in front of this palace!" Su Cairen heard this, raised his arm, and was about to hit Huaying with a slap, but was stopped by Qingchen.
"Su Cairen has to be careful, she is not an ordinary palace maid, she is placed by the emperor to protect the palace, martial arts are strong, if a person accidentally uses too much force, so that Su Cairen breaks his hands and feet, then I can't complain. Qingchen was still smiling lightly, but the words that came out of his mouth made the two women shudder.
"You are just a princess of a defeated country, and you are still the wife of a traitor and thief, how can you deserve the emperor to treat you like this? You don't scare us anymore......" A trace of fear flashed in Yu Meiren's eyes, but she still said strongly.
"Flower Shadow, the lotus flowers in this Fleur Lake are very beautiful, you go and pick a few for the palace, let's go back and make Hanlian Crisp." Qingchen didn't answer the words of the two little masters, but only turned his head and commanded Huaying.
Although Huaying was monitored by Xiao Ling's side by Qingchen's side, the familiar aura on Qingchen's body made her involuntarily obey, listening to Qingchen's words, Huaying didn't say anything, and jumped up directly, performed light skills, and jumped towards the lake from the lake.
Yu Meiren and Su Cairen stared at this scene with wide eyes, only to see the figure of the flower figure undulating, her toes falling on the lotus leaves in the lake, bending down, but in an instant, she picked all the four or five lotus flowers around her, turned to the air again, and flew back from the lake, holding the lotus flower in her hand, and landed beside Qingchen.
"There's a drop of dew on your shoes, and after so long, the light work still hasn't grown. Qingchen took the lotus flowers from Huaying's hand, and said casually, but the familiar tone made Huaying startled.
Qingchen pretended not to see the expression on Huaying's face, and didn't pay attention to Yu Meiren and Su Cairen, just admired the lotus flower in his hand, and turned around and walked towards Fengzao Palace.
Huaying followed behind Qingchen, her heart was extremely complicated, why did the woman in front of her always give her a familiar feeling? Knowing her real name and past events is just that, because as long as you have a heart, you can find out, but why, why does Mu Qingchen know that poem, will she know Han Lianshu, and will she know whether her light skills have improved?
The two of them didn't speak along the way, and after returning to Fengzao Palace, Qingchen went straight to the small kitchen and began to make Hanlian Crisp.
Hanlian is a kind of lotus, there is only a slight difference between the two, the Hanlian crisp in the mouth of Qingchen is made of this flower, but there is no Hanlian in the palace, only this kind of lotus, but the difference is not big, as long as the flower shadow can be hooked, it can only be done.
"Princess, what are you ......" Huaying looked at Qingchen's movements, a little stunned, and said in a low voice.
"What are you still doing in a daze? It's rare that I'm in a good mood today, so come and do it together." Qingchen didn't seem to notice the abnormality on Huaying's face, and said this, the movements in his hands did not stop.
Seeing Qingchen's skillful movements, Huaying had more doubts in her heart, but she didn't say anything more, just followed Qingchen's side, helped Qingchen to help, and used the lotus flowers she had just picked to make a crisp.
The small kitchen of Fengzao Palace was silent, only the two of them made a strange noise when they were busy, which made Huaying even more surprised that although Qingchen was a princess, she was not as delicate as an ordinary princess, and she was also very skilled in doing things, as if she had done it many times.
"Princess, how can you make a crisp?" When the two of them put the finished crisp on the plate, Hanaying finally couldn't resist the urge in her heart and asked.
Qingchen walked out of the small kitchen and walked towards the main hall of Fengzao Palace, Huaying walked behind Qingchen with a plate, waiting for Qingchen's answer.
"Are you very surprised? This Han Lian Crisp was eaten by chance when I was wandering around the street with the prince after I came to Ningyue Kingdom, and I thought it was delicious, so I learned it from the proprietress . Qingchen explained with a smile, "By the way, I remember that the proprietress seems to be called Hanlian." ”
When Qingchen's voice fell, the plate in Huaying's hand fell to the ground with a clatter, making a crisp sound, the plate was broken into several pieces, and the Hanlian cake that Qingchen had finally made also fell to the ground.
Hearing the voice, a smile appeared at the corner of Qingchen's mouth, and then he covered it, then turned around and spoke again: "Why are you so careless? ”
"The slave deserves to die, please forgive the princess. Huaying heard Qingchen's slightly complaining voice, and immediately knelt down to plead guilty.
"Well, I don't really want to eat it anyway, but it's a pity that these beautiful lotus flowers. Qingchenyun said softly, called Huaying to get up, and then returned to Fengzao Palace.
Qingchen didn't care what Hua Ying had in her heart, but she knew that this time, Hua Ying had to leave the palace.
Huaying's real name is Furong, and Hanlian is the same family, and the woman called Hanlian in Qingchen's mouth is Furong's sister.
Furong and Hanlian's father is a teacher in Bozhou, so the two sisters are also scholars, but unfortunately the family fell into the middle of the road, and Mr. Li also died of illness, the two sisters thought that they could go to their father's best friend before his death, but they didn't expect that the uncle would get up to the eye and force Hanlian to sell the two to different green buildings, so the two sisters fell into the dust.
Later, because Furong didn't want to pick up guests, she killed someone in Lichun Building, ran out, was rescued by Ye Tingcheng, was accepted into Xiao Ling's secret guard, changed her name to Huaying, and received training, but she never saw her sister again.
And this Hanlian Crisp is also Huaying's father is still alive, and her sister often makes pastries for them to eat at home, because it is made of Hanlian, and because her sister's name is Hanlian, so she named this pastry called Hanlian Crisp.
These things were all sent by Ye Chengcheng to inquire after meeting Furong, until she was sure that Furong was telling the truth, and in order to have the chips in her hand to control Furong, she even learned this Hanlian Crisp, although it was not authentic, but now it seems that it is extremely effective.
When I was investigating these things, I didn't think that there would be today, nor did I think that these things that I thought would be useless would help her a lot at such a time.
As for Huaying, she hadn't heard from her sister for so many years, but today she happened to see the familiar Hanlian Crisp, and heard her sister's news from Qingchen's mouth, how could she not go out to inquire? As long as Huaying went out, then ...... Naturally, the news will be able to be brought out.
Qing Chen was thinking in his mind, in what way should he reveal the news in the palace to Ning Chen?
