Baby greens, radish, fresh fish fillets, old tofu, mutton, fresh deer blood...
Li Yuhua picked up some fresh mushrooms and put them in a copper pot that was slowly boiling over low heat. He asked his third brother casually, "I went to my aunt's place to have a drink today. Mrs. Lanhou asked me privately about the case of the Nan'an Marquis Mansion. I said,
I'm still reviewing it, and I don't know the details. I heard from the Duke of Jin's wife that Mrs. Lanhou's second son is destined to be Prince Hu's eldest daughter, the daughter of Zhou Yi."
Mu Anzhi picked up the amber drink in the white jade cup and heard Li Yuhua ask, "You have quite a wide circle of friends."
"Guang what? We all met at the Imperial Grandmother's place. The Lanhou Mansion is also of the same clan as the Imperial Grandmother. The eldest daughter of the Lanhou family married the prince of Lu Guogong. She is the girl Lan Lilan whom Sister Muxiang hates so much. I heard that
This woman is very annoying. She used to live at Pei Zhuangyuan's house all day long, and she would always hang out in front of my sister Muxiang. Especially when Pei Zhuangyuan came home, she would always go to see him, and her cousins didn't know how to avoid suspicion!"
Mu Anzhi quickly explained for his old friend, "This has nothing to do with Ruyu. I can guarantee that Ruyu is a gentleman and a most upright person."
"I barely believe you." Li Yuhua said, "Now Mrs. Lu Shizi goes to Ci'en Palace to pay her respects as soon as she gets married. However, the Imperial Grandmother still likes me more and has never left her to have lunch in Ci'en Palace."
"What a silly thing to say. You are a serious grandson's daughter-in-law, but she is no more than a foreign minister's wife. How can she compare to you."
Mu Anzhi brought some boiled mushrooms to Li Yuhua, "It's extremely cold in northern Xinjiang in winter. I wonder what happened to Ruyu and the others?"
"What can we do? It must be mutton cakes in the morning, roasted mutton at noon, and mutton pot in the evening. It's so beautiful." Li Yuhua added casually, making Mu Anzhi laugh. Mu Anzhi said, "Ruyu has always liked vegetarian vegetables, but why is it so cold and bitter?
I don’t know if there is anything edible in northern Xinjiang in winter.”
"Look at what this says, is it sour? If there is meat, it is still called uneaten. Doesn't it say in the books that God is going to give a great job to this people, and they will have to suffer their minds, work their muscles and bones, and starve their bodies and skin. I don't think so.
If you're not worried about Sister Muxiang, who are you worried about? Pei Zhuangyuan." Li Yuhua gave Mu Anzhi a piece of hot mutton with chopsticks and said with a smile, "They eat mutton in northern Xinjiang, and we eat it in the imperial capital. Although we are not in the same place,
The heart is in one place.”
Mu Anzhi smiled, "That makes sense."
The two had a glass of wine together, and Li Yuhua inquired about the case at the Nan'an Marquis Mansion in detail.
The last time something happened to Princess Yunzhang, both Empress Dowager Lan and Emperor Mu Xuan were very concerned about her. They gave her several rewards, and Li Yuhua often helped her by running errands. Now they have a good relationship with Princess Yunzhang.
Now that Princess Xin'an is here, Empress Dowager Lan has not even mentioned a word about it. Li Yuhua can guess that Princess Xin'an is afraid that the royal family will not like her. Because of this, she has to reveal some of the inside story to Empress Dowager Lan from time to time as a precaution.
, an upright person like her third brother only looks at the evidence when deciding a case.
Seeing that Princess Xin'an is not liked by Ci'en Palace, it is best not to let the imperial grandmother misunderstand the third brother.
Mu Anzhi talked to Li Yuhua about some specific matters of the case, and filled up Li Yuhua's wine, "Tonight Du Changshi will interrogate Zhou Yiren overnight. If there are no accidents, the case will be closed tomorrow."
Li Yuhua clicked her tongue, "Then we can't do this pleasant thing."
"Does she still want to make a decree?" Mu Anzhi raised his eyebrows and placed the wine cup in his hand on the table, "Curse the princess, this is a capital crime!"
Li Yuhua was shocked, "Do you really want to be sentenced to death?"
"You think this is a joke?"
"I don't mean to think that the princess is actually fine."
"These are two different things. The royal family is most taboo about witchcraft. The Han Dynasty abolished the queen and the prince, all because of witchcraft. Our court does not believe in witchcraft, but when Queen Mingsheng was in charge, there were some low-level officials.
He asked a magician to calculate the time when Queen Mingsheng would return to life, which angered Duke Li Wenzhong. On the birthday of Queen Mingsheng, Duke Li Wenzhong presented him with a dragon robe to congratulate her. Queen Mingsheng was open-minded and did not pursue the warlock's case vigorously. If she had pursued the matter at that time, she would have
It’s a big prison.”
"The Biography of Empress Mingsheng didn't mention this matter. History books say that Duke Li Wenzhong was a very loyal minister. How could he present a dragon robe to Empress Mingsheng?"
"Just because the history books don't record it doesn't mean it doesn't exist." Mu Anzhi took a slow sip of wine, and the wine went into his throat, with a warm and sweet aroma. He said softly, "Li Wenzhong is indeed a loyal minister, but he is a loyal minister of Empress Mingsheng, and
Not a loyal minister of the Eastern Mu Dynasty."
The maid took away the leftover soup, and Nanny Wang brought two cups of plum blossom dew. The green and lovely jade cups like spring willows were filled with agate-colored fragrant dew. Princess Xin'an smiled when she saw the cups, "How old are you?"
, and found this cup.”
"What's the allusion to this cup?" Huan Li first took one and gave it to his mother, then asked with a smile.
Princess Xin'an said, "There's no allusion to it, it's just a cup I used to love in the past. I haven't used it for many years. If you hadn't found it, I would have forgotten it."
Huan Li picked up the cup and admired it carefully under the candlelight. It was indeed exquisite and lovely. However, he never paid attention to it and only admired it for a moment. Huan Li looked out the window and saw the broken jade Qiongying rising again, and he couldn't help but step forward a few steps.
Standing in front of the window, he said, "There is so much snow this year."
"Auspicious snow heralds a good harvest. This is a good sign. I haven't played chess for a long time. How about you play a game with me?"
"good."
Grandma Wang smiled and hurriedly went down to make arrangements. The mother and son had just set up the chess scale when a maid came in from outside and reported, "Your Majesty, come here to visit the princess."
Huan Li's hand holding the chess piece stopped and he raised his eyes to look at his mother. Princess Xin'an said, "It's too late. Tell the prince that I'm a little tired and let him go back."
The maid said, "The prince said that if the princess is missing, please ask the eldest son to go out and see her."
Princess Xin'an's brows with deep vertical lines suddenly wrinkled, and Huan Li said, "I thought it was me paying my respects to my father. Mother, I went out to see my father."
Princess Xin'an sighed deeply and threw back the chess piece, "Go."
Since the last farewell at the palace gate, the father and son have not seen each other for several days. In fact, they are still the same as before, but there are some differences. After these few days of calmness, Prince Hu did not slap his eldest son in the face again when he came up. Huan Li asked
An Hou lowered his hands and stood quietly without saying a word.
Hu Shizi really doesn't like this eldest son. He hasn't liked him since he was a child. He has no enthusiasm at all and can't speak. He is usually so boring. He answers when you ask and doesn't answer when you don't.
It’s a cliché, it’s better not to ask.
But, I have to ask today.
Hu Shizi glanced at the eldest son and said calmly, "Your mother resents me, I understand. But since you were a child, you have had basic necessities, food, housing, transportation, study and martial arts. I ask myself that I have not treated you unfairly at all. You are also of the Hu family's blood, and you are my eldest son. You also
Do you hate me so much?"
"I don't dare." Huan Li replied respectfully.
It’s just this kind of useless words like a ball of cotton. What’s the use of saying this!
Prince Hu was worried about loving his concubine, and even more worried about the series of disgraceful consequences that would result from loving his concubine. Prince Hu coughed lightly and said, "I advise your mother to go to the Ministry of Justice tomorrow morning and withdraw the case. Since Zhou doesn't like it, she won't
Let Mr. Zhou make noises to her. If Mr. Zhou is inappropriate, I will deal with it and your mother will not be wronged."
"I will answer your father's questions on your behalf," Huan Li said.
Hu Shizi seemed to be unable to hit cotton with a punch. He reminded, "Go to the Criminal Department to withdraw the case tomorrow!"
"It's too late." Huan Li refused directly. Hu Shizi was angry, "How dare you disobey!"
Huan Li still looked warm and gentle, and he couldn't help but feel funny. His father might think that giving birth to him and raising him with adequate food and clothing was a great gift, so he could give orders to him and give orders to him. He should also be respectful and respectful.
from.
Huan Li said calmly, "It's really too late for Fei'er to disobey. If my father comes here, it must be a solid evidence of Zhou's affair. The Ministry of Punishment has ironclad evidence in hand. No matter whether our family files a complaint or not, we will not sit idly by."
"Although there are national laws, there are also family rules. Mrs. Zhou is a female member of our family. If she has committed a crime, our family will deal with it on our own so that we can be considerate inside and outside."
Huan Li said, "My father is interested. I will go to the Ministry of Punishment with my father tomorrow."
Hu Shizi nodded with satisfaction, looked at his eldest son with a hint of admiration in his eyes, and said earnestly, "I knew you were a sensible person. You are my eldest son, and with the example of my younger siblings, the burden of the family will eventually fall."
Here you are. You also understand that your mother is always a little confused as she gets older, right?"
Prince Hu probably thought of these words as admiration and valuing, but in Huan Li's ears, they were full of disgust and disgust. At the end of the words, the word "confused" was like a black iron sharp blade, which stood in front of Huan Li's face.
Come on. He always knew that his father favored the Zhou family, but he didn't expect his father to be so heartless!
Confused!
Do you want to tell others that your mother is not clear-headed, acting wildly, and talking nonsense?
Huan Li raised his eyes to look at his father, his eyes becoming cold. Prince Hu sighed, "Family dignity is more important than anything else. This is also a temporary measure."
"If my father still understood that family honor was more important than anything else, he should have taken good care of the butcher girl and told her what she could do, what she couldn't do, and what she could do without losing her head! Now my father still has to fight for the bitch who murdered his wife.
Who is the one who accuses my mother of being confused? Hasn't my father ever thought about himself?" Huan Li's eyes were cold, and his tone became gentler than spring water, "Father is right, my surname is also Hu, and I am still my father's eldest son.
My father inherited the title, and no matter how biased he was, he still had to pass it on to me according to etiquette. For the sake of my future, how could my mother expose the family scandal and ruin the family's reputation? Good or bad, my father's position as heir apparent would be affected.
.”
"My mother can endure any kind of suffering for me. If she can endure it until I am an adult, she can endure it until I become a prince. Doesn't my father understand that it is not my mother who wants that bitch to die? She wants that bitch to die."
It’s me!”
Snowflakes slapped against the window, making a soft sound.
Hu Shizi was furious and waved his palm, "How dare you!"
Huan Li stretched out his hand and firmly held the arm thrown by Prince Hu. Prince Hu's face was livid and his whole body was shaking with anger. Huan Li said coldly, "When I knew that bitch dared to curse my mother, I wanted her to be ruined.
Death without a complete body!”
Huan Li used his arms hard to push Prince Hu away. Prince Hu took two steps back and looked at the son he seemed to have never known in shock.
"Father, you might as well keep your title and pass it on to your beloved young son, as long as you can still keep your position as the heir apparent!" Huan Li straightened the lapel of his cloak. His stature was no different from that of Prince Hu. Huan Li walked out two steps away.
He stepped forward and turned slightly sideways. His stern side face was reflected by the lamp, and he heard him say, "If I were a father, I would have to go to the court to apologize for my misguided trust in a bitch, which would lead to internal unrest and risk of making a big mistake. By the way, please also ask me.
The imperial court will deal with it according to the national law and give the concubine death, and then everything will be perfect."
With the wind and snow blowing on his face, Huan Li walked out of the small courtyard, and he could still hear his father's scolding voice coming from far away. If it fell into the ears of the servants of the Prince of Chu, it would be another joke. However, at this time, he could no longer care about so many things.
The snow light reflected the sky, and the heavy snow covered the sky and swayed down. Huan Li was rubbing a jade chess piece that had been warmed in his palm——
There are no regrets when you make a move, and there is no need to regret it!
