[Red Chamber] Jagged Lin Daiyu

Chapter 134 Questioning + Acting

Four days later, Baozi Xiang returned to Beijing with Qin Ajiang.

Along the way, he ate well, played well, and tried to find out the news but found nothing, but Qin Zhongyu was very happy. He was very happy when he went to the Ministry of Punishment to sell his vacation, and he was also very happy when he went to the palace to meet the emperor.

Xiang Baozi lay limply on the kitchen table, sniffing, pinching, kneading, tearing apart a meatball, looking at it, and licking it.

Sister Wen is currently preparing the must-have delicacies for the Chinese New Year: look at Laba garlic, steamed and beaten rice cakes, sticky bean buns, fried cakes, twists, sesame balls, hemp leaves, various fried sweet fruits, meatballs, vegetarian meatballs Do a trial run first.There are also flower buns offered in front of the ancestral tablets.She had never done it before, she was newly married after all this year, she fell asleep, she thought about it, and decided to show that she was a very qualified housewife, and she was smart with a photographic memory.

Now, there is a plate in front of her, and there is a large noodle worm on the plate. She is trying to process the dyed dough with knives, chopsticks, bamboo slices and other things according to the memory, trying to make this big noodle The worms are pasted into a flood.

It shouldn't be very difficult. I saw housewives make flower buns during the Chinese New Year in Shanxi before, and you can squeeze out two or three handfuls.

Xiang Baozi praised sincerely: "What a fat big yellow croaker."

Fourth Sister Wen rolled her eyes angrily: "You're going to crush the meatballs, don't eat them quickly."

Xiang Baozi held two halves of the meatball, broke them into four halves, and ate the meatball, which was already the size of a lychee, bit by bit.

The fourth sister Wen felt distressed when she saw it, and rubbed her head: "Baozi, our family is not so poor, and you are not so fat, why treat yourself so harshly, fried a pot of meatballs, you can eat it."

Xiang Baozi shook his head, and said firmly, "No! Eat more at meal time. Ajaan told me that he lost weight because he didn't like snacks since he was a child. I just love snacks too much."

Fourth Sister Wen breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the little apprentice was going on an extreme hunger strike to lose weight, but it turned out that he was just giving up snacks, good boy, so healthy.

She grabbed a handful of bamboo sticks and tried to fix the big-faced worm with its head raised to the sky. She used the bamboo sticks to stab left and right: "Did you two get anything out of this trip? Brother Zhuo told me, You wrote to him about something important, my boy, and a meatball for you."

Xiang Baozi pouted, not happy: "Master, I endured so hard, and you still tempted me on purpose." She ate a meatball in one bite, ahh~ it's so delicious!

A-Jiang said he was coming to propose marriage, but he didn't tell you first, in case he went back and thought about changing his mind, in case something else happened, it would be embarrassing to speak out. "What can I do? I saved a trip to the bodyguard. I'm so tired that I've lost weight."

Fourth Sister Wen hahaha ate a crispy twist: "It's not a small harvest! It's a pity that when I come back, it's the Chinese New Year. Every New Year's day, I gain three catties, and after three catties, I gain three catties~" One or two bamboo sticks can't support it. To get up, you can only use a bamboo stick to make a small fire, and put the face dragon's neck on it.

Xiang Baozi was about to cry: "Master, you are too bad!"

Fourth Sister Wen didn't want to ruin all her recent weight loss results, so she picked up the plate: "Take the panel, go, don't stay here anymore, this place is full of dangers!" Everywhere within reach is delicious food!

Yun'er came in, she came here for her master, she unconsciously ran to take a fried cake and ate it, then walked back: "Master, here, to worship the ancestors during the Chinese New Year, offering a plate of cakes pierced by thousands of arrows. Gecko,,,, what special purpose does it have?"

Fourth Sister Wen stared at her with dead fish eyes, rolled her eyes again after watching for a while, and said angrily, "You can't even comprehend this, you must be addicted to womanizing."

Yun'er bit the fried cake and was stunned. It's not wrong to be addicted to women's sex, but before my family's fortunes fell, I had read a lot and knew the customs and customs of many places. An arrow through the heart?What's the point?

Xiang Baozi trembled with a smile, reluctantly followed the master and walked out, watching the master angrily pulling out the bamboo stick, she trembled with a smile, and comforted: "Master, don't be angry, you have changed from a carp to a gecko so quickly. Just work hard and you'll be fine."

Fourth Sister Wen felt a little relieved, and grabbed a handful of five-spice melon seeds for her: "Newly cooked, try it."

Xiang Baozi looked up to the sky and sighed: "I just came out of the tiger's den and entered the wolf's den again! Crackling, crackling, crackling, it's delicious. Master, what are you going to do?"

Fourth Sister Wen sighed: "Make a dragon!" Although I kind of forgot what a dragon looks like, I should add scales, a tail, beard and hair, and four legs. It's almost the same?

After finishing the fried cake, Yun'er wiped the oil from her hands and came out to help her: "Master, let me come. Didn't you draw a picture?"

Fourth Sister Wen smiled slightly: "I never use those things." When I make chiffon cakes, I can succeed time and time again just by the feel of the hand!

Yun'er said in her heart: You can't draw!Pretend to me, hum~

Fourth Sister Wen kneaded the big thick noodles whose chin was pierced, trying to make a dragon with teeth and claws, just like the one on the emperor's dragon robe.After fumbling around, I felt that the image looked familiar, and thought about it again, huh?Isn't this the outline of a sanitary napkin?

After Xiang Baozi finished eating the melon seeds, he felt a bit dry and didn't drink any water. He dug out a frozen persimmon in the snow outside the window, scalded it with boiling water, peeled off the skin and slowly ate the frozen persimmon with a spoon.

Yun'er really couldn't bear to watch Master tossing noodles, so she rolled up her sleeves and said, "Master, I'll help you."

He pulled all the things in front of him, took a piece of blue dough, cut out the unevenness with scissors, pressed it with a small wooden comb, and wrapped it around the dragon's tail, the feeling of the tail came out.Brush a thick layer of turmeric water on the thick white noodles, pinch roughly on the head, take off the ruby ​​gold ring on the finger, pinch it in the hand to press the fish scale pattern with the ring circle.

Fourth Sister Wen: (⊙o⊙) Oh!Papapapa, she applauded earnestly: "That's amazing! Yun'er, you are so amazing! Please leave it to you!"

Yun'er happily agreed, and gesticulated: "Feed me meatballs. Baozi, crack melon seeds. I also want to eat frozen persimmons!"

Both of them followed suit.

Yun'er only took a few mouthfuls, and concentrated on using the small scissors to fiddle with the dragon's head and paint the color: "What kind of paint is this? Can it be eaten?"

"I can't eat it. If we can eat it, we dare not eat it." Fourth Sister Wen grabbed the frozen persimmon from the bun and ate it: "This will be offered in the ancestral hall from the first day to the fifteenth day of the lunar new year. Even if it is cold, it will take too long." long."

Yun'er asked: "Master...do you send people back to the hometown to worship the ancestors?"

Fourth Sister Wen said: "My family's ancestral tablet is in the ancestral hall, and my parents' tablets have been moved here." Oh, brother Zhuo, he has no parents or brothers, even if he doesn't build an ancestral hall, what's the use of building an ancestral hall, is there no tablet in it?I'll have a look later.

Eating and chatting, I became a dragon, a deer, and a tortoise.Only the last limp tortoise was pinched by Fourth Sister Wen, and her skills were limited to this.

……

"Jiang Qing, have you eloped back?" The emperor sat on the throne, his voice was lukewarm.

Qin Zhongyu immediately knelt down: "I am guilty, I have come to plead guilty to the Holy One."

The emperor stared at him for a long time, and sneered: "If you say you are going to visit the people, can I not let you go? I just want to tell a lie about the death of my uncle, because I am the king of a country, and I have no time to investigate the private affairs of my subjects. So, you dare to lie to others (crack!)! Are you guilty?"

Prince Teng next to him stood up awkwardly: "Your Majesty calm down. What is this for?"

Qin Zhongyu covered his face and sobbed.

The emperor slapped the table again, and scolded coldly: "Why are you crying! A man should kill a thief with a knife. How can it be proper to cry like you! I will prepare a dowry someday, and I will marry you to southern Xinjiang!"

Qin Zhongyu prostrated himself on the ground, weeping uncontrollably: "Your Majesty owes you His Majesty's grace. At that time, your brain got hot and you did something wrong. It's too late to regret it later, Your Majesty, Your Majesty"

He climbed forward on two knees and hugged the emperor's knees: "Your Majesty, please appease your anger. Please take care of the dragon's body. Don't get angry because of a stupid person like Ajaan. If that happens, then Ajaan's crime will be more serious." Death is inevitable. Beeping"

Wang Ziteng: Vomit!I knew you had legs!I'm so crazy!disgusting!No wonder the emperor didn't pay much attention to female sex, this is the living Dong Xian!

The expression on the emperor's face softened, he touched his face, and said in the most doting tone when he spoke to Daiyu: "Where did you go wild? You lost weight, and your face is not as tender as before."

Qin Zhongyu raised his lotus and pointed: "Huang Sang~ You despise A-Jiang!"

He continued to hug the emperor's leg, put his face on his knee, and confided in a low voice: "A few days ago, the emperor always got angry, and he couldn't drink the gunpowder in cold weather, so as not to hurt his kidney energy." Grabbed the emperor's waist.

The emperor had a half-smile, with an expression on his face: Little goblin, you are playing with fire.

Wang Ziteng: Vomit!

Qin Zhongyu complained quietly: "I found a recipe, saying that I should use winter lotus root to cook wine and eat it. It would be good to eat three meals. The best winter lotus root in the country is in Handan. I rushed to Handan on a starry night and dug some of it myself. Lotus root, I chose the ten best ones and brought them back, all for His Majesty's dragon body. You see, A-Jiang's hands are cracked from the cold." She mourned and complained like weeping.

Wang Ziteng felt cold behind his back: "Your Majesty, I will take my leave." Vomit!vomit!vomit!

The emperor simply forgot about things, looked at A Jiang affectionately, and held his hand: "It's hard for you. But you have to be considerate of me. You disappeared from the capital for no reason, making me unable to eat or sleep. Good sleep. I haven’t let you out all these years, why? Ah, Wang Aiqing, you go.”

Wang Ziteng bowed and retreated, and went back to drink tea silently to suppress his nausea.

He didn't see it, after he bowed and exited the house, the eunuch closed the door again.

Qin Ajiang jumped up happily: "Your Majesty, you have read that book!"

In the future, I will prepare a dowry to marry you to southern Xinjiang!

This is the opening chapter of "The Absolute Love in Fengtai—Two or Three Things About the Ruthless Emperor and the Exquisite Beauty"!

The emperor rolled his eyes: "Sit down. The acting is good."

Qin Ajiang pointed at the orchid: "Your Majesty~"

The emperor slapped the table: "Speak well! Just now you almost made me sick!"

Qin Ajiang said in a rough voice: "I want to beat myself up, what's wrong with Mr. Wang? What's wrong with him?"

The emperor couldn't help laughing, and there was nothing to say. The golden knife was presented by Wang Ziteng. After searching for a long time in the east, he said it might be in Tianjin. For: "Corruption. Let me hit him once. If he comes to you these two days, you will say that I treated him... Forget it, don't say anything, pretend you know everything and pretend you don't know."

Qin Zhongyu took a sip of tea: "I have been pretending all these years."

The emperor smiled: "Thank you for your hard work. Did you really bring me winter lotus root?"

"Walnuts, winter lotus root, Congtai wine, donkey meat sausage, I brought some." Qin Zhongyu was a little proud: "Can the emperor, um, I think, can you?" I couldn't say it, I was embarrassed .

The emperor just smiled and said nothing.

Qin Zhongyu took a sip of tea: "Can you propose a marriage for me? Huh..." He said it.

The emperor couldn't help laughing: "Hahahaha, what you drink is tea, not wine. Why do you use wine to embolden your face?"

Qin Zhongyu said, "I don't know either."

The emperor slapped his thigh with a smile: "I'm really bored these days when you've been away from Beijing. Go to work and find some new good novels to send. You know which one I want, and I want pictures too."

Qin Zhongyu was a little curious: "Your Majesty, although there are less than three thousand beauties in your harem, there are still three or two beauties. Why do you want more?"

The emperor looked up to the sky and sighed: "You don't understand. When I saw Concubine He Gui, I thought of the Empress Dowager. What a haha. The other concubines have their own backgrounds and family backgrounds. When I go to their palace, I have to think about how her father and brother are. What job, how well you do it, if you are reprimanded, you still have to listen to her pleading to show your loyalty, talking is really boring, there is always something to talk about."

(The empress expressed her pride in the distance. When she first married the prince, the empress dowager stuffed two beauties in, and she started a huge plan. Knowing that Erlang hates extravagance, he treats beauties very well, and clothes and jewelry don’t matter , the layout of the room is as gorgeous as that of the empress dowager's palace, and the meals are ostentatious and full of food.

The crown prince was embarrassed and said that he was going to sit in the beauty's house, and she said kindly what the beauty's father's job was now, what was his elder brother's job, and that he had a good relationship with the empress dowager's younger brother recently, so the prince turned around and went to the study to worry about the country I am worried about the people, and I can't help feeling disgusted when I see the beauties later.Seeing the "royal style" and "magnificent and noble" layout with the same style as the empress dowager, I hated it from the bottom of my heart.Plan to pass!Of course, these emperors did not know. )

Qin Zhongyu didn't understand very well. Aren't all emperors like this?He remembered, not all of them, many concubines in history were born in small families, only the emperor's harem, either came from a rebellious family, or came from a big local tyrant, and they couldn't explain it clearly to the empress dowager's natal family Relationship.

He was a little curious: "I heard that His Majesty has appointed a new imperial concubine, why?"

The emperor expressed his displeasure, and snorted: "Who do you want to propose marriage to?"

No matter what the imperial concubine is, it is nothing but a bottomless pit of money.Knowing that A-Jiang's parents are both dead, and there are no relatives who can make decisions in the family, I will give you face and help you match.

Although there is no need to match up now, I really don't know what will happen if the two elope together.

Qin Zhongyu said everything, just about to resign, but was caught by the emperor again, His Majesty was bored, and wanted to listen to the love stories of boys and girls to comfort the boredom.

The emperor recently saw that Yao Sanlang and sister Daiyu were both sour and sweet.My childhood playmate, my longtime best friend, also eloped with a girl, hey, it’s just me and the queen.Now imagine that year, when the empress was not good, she was always busy with government affairs, she was tired and fell asleep in the study for a month to half a month, and she had no time to talk to her in the other half month, it was the first time to go to the concubine palace In Zhongshi, although she came back angrily, she heard the queen crying in the room, and because she was so gentle and virtuous, she didn't care about these things.

(The queen said: When I heard you leave the beauty palace, I started to cry, and my voice became hoarse from crying.)

The emperor thought about the romance and romance that he lacked in his youth, silently clenched his fists, and decided to go back today to make her happy.He asked Qin Zhongyu to resign, and walked to Yongfu Palace by himself. When he reached the gate of the palace, he saw Yao Sanlang dressed up beautifully, holding a large bunch of red plums in full bloom.The emperor stopped him: "Sanlang stay away, where did this come from, and who is it going to send to?"

Yao Sanlang said heartlessly: "Your Majesty, what you said is that I will bring flowers to Yongfu Palace. If I don't give them to Daiyu, do I dare to give them to the empress?"

"Hmm... (It feels weird) It makes sense. You took too much, it's not elegant enough, half of it is enough." The emperor snatched half of the flowers from him: "Just say that I will go with you It was hard work to pick it."

Yao Sanlang was a little speechless, watching him go in with flowers in his arms.

The emperor laughed heartily: "Zitong, look at the flowers I picked for you."

The Empress and Daiyu stood up together, they were lazily leaning on the cushion, one was making clothes for the little prince, the other was lazily embroidering and making a purse, manuscript paper and two boxes of rouge were piled up in a mess on the table.Daiyu: "Brother."

"Your Majesty." The queen also gave her a blessing, with a pleasant surprise on her face: "Ah, it's so beautiful. Just now, Yao Sanlang was going to fold flowers for Daiyu. I'm envious. It's good to be young and beautiful. If someone pleases me, I won't." People give things. Unexpectedly, Erlang, you can really make people happy."

Tell the truth, you just snatched half of the flowers from the door, right?

"Sit down, you don't need to be too polite." Satisfied, the emperor smiled and held the flower and told the maid: "Bring that sweet white glazed six-edged lotus statue." Huajiao? Yao Sanlang and I folded the flowers together, and we picked the best ones for the fairy maiden."

The queen pinched her hand pretendingly: "Good devout believers, what do you... ask for?"

The emperor quickly showed off his acting skills and put on the appearance of a pious nympho scholar. He really loved the little Huang Shu he watched last night. There was a story about Landing Juzi and a lonely fairy in the temple. Putting flowers in a vase, Put your hands together: "Xiaosheng has nothing else to ask for, but to ask for a smile from the empress."

The queen showed a faint smile like a god: "Very good."

Daiyu covered her eyes and peeked through a gap, her face flushed slightly, and she thought to herself: So not all couples in the world are weak and sick like my father and mother, respecting each other as guests, and have a harmonious relationship like the emperor and empress.

At this moment, Yao Sanlang came in with flowers in his hands: "Sister, you said you wanted red plum blossoms to fumigate the house, are these enough?" Originally, I got a bundle, even if it was enough for roasting duck, it was a pity that it was robbed.I don't pretend to be a fairy anymore.

With a red face, Daiyu pulled him out, and said softly: "Enough is enough, let's go."

The queen blushed a little and became more delicate and lovely.The emperor waited for the door to close, and rushed over.

Walking down the corridor, Daiyu laughed softly and said, "It's really loving."

Yao Sanlang took the opportunity to be courteous: "Sister, don't worry, we will do the same in the future. It's not a good day and night, it's always good."

Daiyu blushed completely, stomped her feet, and was about to scold him for talking nonsense, but she was embarrassed, so she just walked back to the house without saying a word, bowed her head, and told the maid: "Bring a big vase." Ming said, you said clearly, how do you tell me to talk?

Yao Sanlang followed in bewilderment with flowers in his hands, handed the flowers to the maid, and still entangled Daiyu.Knowing that she didn't like to ask questions by herself, she just blinked her big eyes at her and circled around her.Like a dog surrounding its master, like a star surrounding the moon.

Daiyu pursed her lips, disturbed by his silent interference, and said in a low voice: "I know your heart, don't worry."

Yao Sanlang said in a low voice: "How can I not be in a hurry."

Daiyu picked up a plum blossom and played with it in her hand: "Why are you...in a hurry?"

why do you like me?Just because I'm pretty?Why?

Master thinks I'm cute, and I think I'm cute when I look in the mirror, but you like me so much and please me. If I were a man, I wouldn't please Lin Daiyu like this.

Yao Sanlang was stopped by the question and scratched his head: "When I see you, I feel happy, more happy than eating ginseng fruit."

"That's all?"

"It's not just that, I, I just like you and I'm anxious. Who can tell clearly. Mr. Zhuo is so scheming, powerful and powerful. Why do you think he has a deep-rooted love for Fourth Sister Wen? It's not destined by God. .”

Daiyu said: "No. There is something else hidden about this matter."

Yao Sanlang couldn't hold back his desire for gossip: "What's the secret? What did she do to make Mr. Zhuo treat her so well?"

"Master is very kind to Master?" Daiyu showed a disapproving expression: "He always bullies my Master, but the bullying does not leave any traces. The hidden truth is that other people think that Mr. Zhuo looks like a bad guy , my master doesn’t think so.”

Yao Sanlang: "I guess she didn't see it at all."

"No." Daiyu waved her hand: "Master likes his intelligence very much, and in order to make use of his abilities, he praised him vigorously, treated him well, and took good care of him when he was sick or injured. I don't know why, Master. I don't even know."

Yao Sanlang asked in a different way: "Sister, do you hate me?"

"It's not annoying, it's just that you are hateful sometimes."

Yao Sanlang's bones were crisp: "When?"

Just as Dai Yu was about to answer, a piece of paper fell out of his sleeve, Yao Sanlang couldn't bear to let her pick it up himself, so he quickly picked it up: "Ah!"

The author has something to say: The queen looks so powerful, I want to write a special episode for her.
