Jiang Miao was now spoiled by him and had a temper. She allowed Shen Yanqing to coax her for a long time. The next day, she left the job of delivering food to Zhu Kuan and took Wu Yue out.
It has been so long since she came to the capital, but she has yet to get together with Xu Zilan. Xu Zilan told her the identity of Princess Rongning.
When she first came to the capital, the eldest princess and Shen Yanqing were worried about her safety and did not allow her to go out. Now that the capital's attention is attracted to Sang Nu, Jiang Miao no longer needs to be cautious.
And with Wu Yue by her side, she would be able to avoid danger if she encountered it.
The two met at a hot pot restaurant. The cold winter was the best time to eat hot pot. The Shen family's food was light these days, and Jiang Miao was a little greedy.
"Miaoya, here."
As soon as Jiang Miao walked to the door of the store, she saw the window of the private room on the second floor opened. Xu Zilan stuck her head out to greet her, and a young lady with a bright face was faintly revealed next to her.
Jiang Miao raised her eyebrows slightly. Is there anyone else today?
She went upstairs with questions, Caiyun opened the door, and Xu Zilan came over and hugged her.
"You are free now. Mr. Shen is keeping an eye on you. It's very difficult to see you."
Xu Zilan's eyes were raised, and even though she was complaining, anyone could tell that the two of them were intimate. The young lady next to her also stood up, but her eyes were widened, her mouth was slightly open, and her eyes were filled with emotion.
shock.
How could Mrs. Shen look so much like...Sang Nu?
The young lady, that is, Zhao Mingzhen, opened and closed her mouth, wanting to ask clearly but not knowing how to speak, her face turned red from holding back.
Jiang Ru didn't know about her abnormality, but Xu Zilan knew that Zhao Mingzhen, as the emperor's cousin, was also a cousin to Jiang Miao. Especially since she had met Sang Nu and the eldest princess, it was normal to have questions about Jiang Miao's appearance.
However, Jiang Miao has not recognized her ancestors yet, and her identity cannot be revealed yet. Xu Zilan silently apologized to Zhao Mingzhen and could only hide it from her for now.
"County Master Mingzhen, this is the close friend Jiang Miao I told you about. Her husband is Shen Yanqing, a doctor in the Ministry of Household Affairs."
Today she and Jiang Miao made an appointment at a hot pot restaurant. Unexpectedly, she met Zhao Mingzhen when she came in. Because Zhao Mingzhen of Yujingyuan had helped her before, the two of them walked around a few times and they got along quite well. Zhao Mingzhen invited her to join them.
Xu Zilan refused on the grounds that she had made an appointment with a friend, but Zhao Mingzhen was curious and wanted to meet Jiang Miao.
After all, her favorite spices and hot pot are all made by Jiang Miao. As a foodie, Zhao Mingzhen has long been curious about Jiang Miao.
She even wanted to visit Zhenjiang Prefecture before and taste the famous food street in the capital. How could she let go of the opportunity to meet now.
But Zhao Mingzhen never expected that this meeting would directly give her a big impact.
"Your... surname is also Jiang?"
Her voice was a little dry, and she looked at Jiang Miao with more and more confusion. Jiang Miao not only resembled the eldest princess, but also had the surname Jiang. It was strange. If the eldest princess had not recognized Sannu, Zhao Mingzhen would have thought that the person in front of her was
This is the real Princess Rongning.
She didn't know yet that her guess was correct. Jiang Miao and Xu Zilan's eyes met, and she roughly understood the current situation. She touched her nose and nodded awkwardly.
"Um."
Jiang Miao had a good impression of this cousin, especially since she was on good terms with Xu Zilan, and her character was not a problem. However, she felt a little uncomfortable cheating her now, so she changed the subject to look at the menu.
The food came out quickly. Zhao Mingzhen, who couldn't take his eyes away from the delicious food in the past, rarely paid attention to the food this time. He glanced at Jiang Miao from time to time, his little face was blank, and he couldn't recover for a long time.
Seeing her like this, Xu Zilan regretted agreeing to let her see Jiang Miao. If Zhao Mingzhen was frightened, she would not be able to explain to Princess Rui.
"Master Mingzhen, try this slice of tripe. It's a new dish that was served recently. Take the tenderest part of the beef and blanch it lightly in the pot for a few times. When dipped in the sauce, it will be crispy and fragrant."
The woman's smile was gentle and kind, and her voice had a soothing charm. Zhao Mingzhen took it and put it in his mouth. The tender belly coupled with the rich sesame sauce was indeed delicious as she said.
"tasty."
Zhao Mingzhen nodded slightly, her expression gradually returning to normal.
Jiang Miao felt relieved when she saw that she was back to normal. Sure enough, as Xu Zilan said, the Mingzhen County Lord was a foodie, and foodies all cared about each other. Jiang Miao naturally knew how to wake her up.
"Then County Lord, please eat more. This orange juice is also good. It's sour and sweet to relieve greasiness. It goes well with hot pot."
These dishes were all decided by Jiang Miao. No one knows better than her what is in the store and how to eat it. Moreover, Jiang Miao is very approachable. As long as she wants to make friends, there will be no failure.
The two introduced each other and ate together. Because of Jiang Miao's deliberate friendship, the distance between the two quickly narrowed. Within one meal, Zhao Mingzhen regarded her as a close friend. She only regretted that she had not been there for more than ten years.
met her.
Who wouldn’t like a young lady like this who understands her, knows how to eat, and is funny when she talks?
"Miaoya, you will go out more often in the future. There are no shops in the capital that I don't know about. The roast duck in Jixiang Tower, the roasted whole lamb in Fengxian Tower, the fish soup in Jiuzhai... There are many delicious food in the capital. You just arrived.
If you are not familiar with it yet, I will take you to eat together when the time comes."
Zhao Mingzhen held their hands, the smile on her face was bright and bright, and her eyes were as bright as the stars. Jiang Miao liked this little cousin of similar age even more.
"OK."
"Then let's make a deal. I'll pick you up at Shen's house tomorrow, and let's try Fengxianlou's roasted whole lamb!"
Zhao Mingzhen had just finished eating the hot pot and was still not digesting it. Zhao Mingzhen could not wait to think about what to eat tomorrow. Jiang Miao and Xu Zilan smiled helplessly. She had said that she was a foodie before, but she pales in comparison to Zhao Mingzhen.
Because Wu Yue came to see him tonight, Qiao Songyun couldn't sit still at home. Qiao's family had nothing, and he didn't want to wait for Wu Yue to come, not even having anything to entertain him.
Especially when he went out yesterday and found nothing unusual, Qiao Songyun walked around the house for a long time and finally made a decision in his mind. Maybe the murderers had stopped paying attention to him a long time ago and there would be no danger for him to go out now.
Qiao Songyun climbed over the wall from the backyard and went to West Street along the path behind the house. Wu Yue loved to eat. He knew that there was a delicious snack on West Street that Wu Yue would definitely like.
Qiao Songyun walked quickly towards West Street with excitement in his heart. He didn't know that as soon as he went out, the door of Qiao's house was opened, and two guards from the Jiang family pushed in.
"Brother, there are traces of human life here. The chairs are still warm and the people just left."
The man touched Qiao Songyun's chair with a solemn expression. He discovered yesterday that it was indeed true. The Qiao family members were back, but he just didn't know who this person was.
