Chapter 357 Three Barren Mountains

"Your Majesty, I have realized my mistake... Stop fighting..." Chunyue was immediately stunned. Prince Yun is so moody? Can't he just talk casually?

Mingruo didn't like this scene. She pointed at the 'Kazilan big eyes' and said to Si Haochen: "I want this person. I will send her to the embroidery workshop in a while. The other two... you can do whatever you want." Bar."

"Yes." Si Haochen made a gesture, and Aunt Dong also stopped, "Send this one to the embroidery workshop, and these two to the army."

"Yes." Butler Zhou quickly accepted the order, "Old slave, I'll do it now."

Shutan and Chun Yue were really panicked when they heard that they were going to be sent to the army. If they went to the army, wouldn't they become bitches with "a pair of jade arms and a pillow for a thousand people"! The two of them quickly knelt down and begged. ——

"Princess, my maidservant is also a prostitute and can also make snacks."

"Princess, I know you are wrong. I can do any job."

Ming Ruo thought they were making a lot of noise and walked to the bedroom: "You don't just follow the prince's arrangements. Now that the prince has arranged a place for you, why do you come to ask me for help?"

"..." Chun Yue was speechless. Before, she only thought that Princess Yun wanted to make her a rough maid, but she didn't expect that she would help him. Just now, she even boasted that she wanted to open branches for the palace. Loose leaves, how ridiculous.

Butler Zhou arranged for the three beauties to be sent to their respective places. After getting on the carriage, Shutan and Chunyue looked at Zilan with resentment in their eyes.

Zi Lan sat silently in a corner of the carriage, closing her eyes and concentrating.

"You must know something, why didn't you remind me and Chun Yue?" Shutan said fiercely.

Zi Lan opened her eyes, with a sneer on her lips: "Sister Shutan is finally willing to speak, and is she no longer waiting for me and Chunyue to charge into battle?"

"Sister Zilan, we entered the palace together and promised to be good sisters for life. How could you treat us like this?" Chunyue still looked like a pitiful doormat.

"Oh, good sister... Every time you deliberately provoke the steward to punish me, do you forget that I am your good sister?" Zi Lan actually didn't know that this would be the result of entering Prince Yun's Mansion. . However, the nun in charge, who had always been at odds with her, had an expression of watching the show after hearing that she was given to Prince Yun, which made her wary, "Actually, I don't know anything, but it's okay. Just gambling."

Mingruo returned to the dormitory and watched Zi Su order the gifts he would bring to the Jingguo Palace tomorrow. Like an old cadre, Si Haochen walked in with his hands behind his back and sat down next to Mingruo.

"Just now, I saw you summoning those three people into the inner courtyard. I was really afraid that you would be soft-hearted and leave them to serve in the house." Si Haochen took Mingruo's little hand and held it in his palm.

"Oh~" Mingruo said with a hint of joking in her eyes, "Aren't you afraid that I will bully them?"

"Xiao Ruo'er, do you want to accept family law again?" Si Haochen whispered in Mingruo's ear.

The low and sweet voice brushed against her eardrums, and Mingruo shivered: "I'm not, I'm not, don't talk nonsense..."

"How dare you tease me as a husband with this little courage!" Si Haochen narrowed his eyes and glanced at Mingruo, "No one in the palace is simple, especially those who come from the Queen Mother's Palace, don't be fooled by them Just cheated."

"I know." Although Mingruo doesn't like to engage in conspiracy theories, Emperor Danxu is not an upright person in her eyes. Therefore, she is wary of everything in the palace. "However, my boyfriend beat me big time." If you win the battle, the emperor will only reward you with a hundred taels of gold. Isn't this too stingy?"

"Your husband would have starved to death if you relied on him for food." Si Haochen guessed that the Supreme Emperor was in the palace, so Dan Xu gave him some gold.

Butler Zhou walked in cheerfully again: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the Emperor's reward has arrived, and Eunuch Hai has come to announce the decree."

"Let's go and take a look." Si Haochen led Mingruo to the front hall.

"Old slave, please give your regards to the prince and the princess." Eunuch Hai saluted with a smile.

"Get up, you got here quickly." Si Haochen sat down on the main seat.

"Hey, my old slave's legs are quite nimble." Eunuch Hai didn't say much and directly read out the things the Emperor had given to Prince Yun.

I gave a lot of gold, silver, jewelry, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, and finally three barren hills ten miles north of Beijing...

The corner of Mingruo's mouth twitched, 'Three barren mountains'? It seems that there are two mountains around the mine, right? Seeing Mingruo's cute little expression, Si Haochen gave her a check with his eyes.

Ming Ruo gave him a thumbs up. No wonder Si Haochen was not in a hurry as he was guarding a large mine. It turned out that he was waiting here.

After reading the list of rewards, Eunuch Hai continued: "The Emperor has said that the prince and the princess will not be able to get these things for free. Let's make some more salty rice dumplings like those for the Dragon Boat Festival."

"It's not difficult." Mingruo agreed immediately, "But it takes a little longer to prepare the rice dumplings. I'll give him some salty snacks to try tomorrow."

"That's good." After receiving this 'promise', Eunuch Hai returned to the palace.

In the afternoon, Zicao and Aunt Dong made some salty snacks. Smelling the smell of baking, Mingruo suddenly remembered the butterfly cakes made by her grandma when she was a child.

Ming Ruo stood up suddenly, startling Si Haochen who was reading next to him: "What's wrong?"

"Nothing, I'm going to make something delicious." Mingruo ran to the small kitchen excitedly.

To make butterfly pastry, you need to freeze the pastry and refrigerate it several times. At this time, the lotus cup given by the senior brother is very useful. Well, I will make more butterfly pastries and give some to the senior brother to try.

The materials and methods for making butterfly puff pastry are not complicated. The most troublesome thing is that each time you open the puff pastry, you need to refrigerate or freeze it for a period of time.

Mingruo saw that it was getting late, so he handed the finished puff pastry to Zicao to freeze: "Let's bake it tomorrow morning."

"My servant has taken note of it." Zicao nodded.

The next morning, Mingruo was awakened by the sweet aroma of baking.

This feeling is a little subtle, like going back to the old days - after a week's work, sleeping in at home on the weekends, you will be woken up by the baking aroma of the bakery downstairs. Going hungry to buy a freshly baked bread,

Make another cup of coffee and it will be a good weekend...

When Si Haochen came back from sword practice, he saw the little girl staring at the top of the bed with her eyes open, as if her soul had left her body.

Si Haochen was startled, and quickly went over to hold Ming Ruo into his arms, calling softly: "Ruo'er."

Ming Ruo's thoughts were brought back, and she put her arms around Si Haochen's neck: "Good morning."

"Good morning." Si Haochen patted Mingruo's back gently, "What were you thinking about just now?"

"Remembering things from the past." Mingruo smiled lightly.

"Are you happy?" Si Haochen tightened his arms slightly.

"It's not bad." Mingruo rubbed the crook of Si Haochen's neck, "It would be better if I had you."
