Chapter 568: "Jiangnan" on the grassland

I was looking at the valley in front of me, and I saw the back of the mountain. A row of black dots slowly appeared on the other side of the winding road. When I approached, I could hear the sound of a pleasant Tongling. It turned out to be a The caravan, a dozen horses, and a few horses, hurriedly came over.
The guards had long gone up and stopped, and the caravan people did not expect to encounter the holy car. They all frightened and fell to their knees. He came over to ask the emperor. Pei Yuanzhang didn't say anything, simply asked After a few words of them, the caravan did not dare to walk away from the holy drive, so they stayed honestly and waited for the emperor's car to leave before they dared to move.
I was fine when I was standing. I wandered around and wanted to talk to them in the past, but I saw an old man in the caravan. In his sixties, his hair was gray and he was standing by his arms. There was a bowl of water to drink there, and when I saw the past, they all stood carefully: "This is—Madam?"
Lady maid? I also heard this saying for the first time, and smiled slightly: "Old people, you don't have to be so scared, I just came to see you."
"Thank you, thank you."
I said to the old man: "Old man, so old, still running out?"
The old man laughed and said, "Sir, Caomin is not theirs, but to go to Shengjing to see my son. He was afraid that I would meet thieves on the way back, so I paid for the car to go along with the caravan, and someone was taking care of me Take care. "
"Oh." I laughed. "Your son is really filial. Why is he winning in Beijing?"
"He works there."
"What do you do?"
"He is a chef. He has done it in several restaurants in Yangzhou before. The craftsmanship is good. Some people have come to Yangzhou to invite chefs a few years ago. His salary is several times higher than in a restaurant. The dog is thinking of earning some money. When I came back to the countryside, I followed. After more than three years, Caomin missed him and came to see. "
"Oh?" I was a bit surprised. People on the grassland are used to beef and mutton, and the food is not expensive. Why would anyone go to Yangzhou to invite a chef? So he asked, "Who invited your son over? Is it Shengjing's restaurant?"
"No." The old man shook his head and lowered his voice. "It's in the palace over there."
"In the palace?"
I froze, as if I felt something, and hurriedly asked, "Who is in the palace?"
The old man said: "Here, Caomin doesn't know, not only Caomin, not even Caomin's son. Just order the top every day, the little dog will do it according to the list, and someone will pick it up. It's written in recent years Shui Pai has eaten all the dishes in the south. "
"..." My heart sank a little, and I asked, "Then, Yangzhou cuisine can pay attention to the ingredients. If I cook in Shengjing, I'm afraid it's not easy to make it?"
"Ah, no," said the old man. "If you want to say that the people there will really think of a way. They dug a large lake behind the palace. The water in it is so clear that the fish bars are so fat. Planted lotuses! He also built a palace next to the lake, planted willows, poplars, and rockery, raised cranes ... Caomin only followed his son to lie on the door and watched it once, alas, it was exactly like Jiangnan! "
"..."
"Those who can support themselves are raised; those who cannot support them will be sent from Yangzhou for transportation, these thousands of miles!"
"..." I was speechless in shock.
If it weren't for this old man who said, I wouldn't believe it. Someone in the grassland thousands of miles away has created such a scene. The magnolia scull and the green bird crying spring, it is another Jiangnan.
This requires a lot of manpower, material resources and financial resources, as well as a resolute heart!
When I spoke again, my voice trembled, "Who is there?"
The old man shook his head and said, "This, I don't know."
"..."
"It's just that Cao Min guesses that there must be people from the south who live there, otherwise why would he go to Yangzhou to find a cook?"
"..."
"Shengjing has a powerful prince who goes every day. Others are not allowed to break in to disturb the people inside. Any strange treasures are also sent in ..."
"..."
"I just don't know, who's in there, such a big pomp."
I almost felt like I couldn't stand anymore, when I heard the next few eunuchs running and shouting, "Get off!"
Looking back, those officials and concubines returned to the carriage one after another, and Shuixiu also ran over, holding me and saying, "Sir, go back and start your journey."
"..." I just felt that my teeth were snoring, some were speechless, and she was taken two steps away before looking back at the old man, and said gently, "Thanks a lot."
"Ah, lord, don't be so polite."
He nodded rudely to me, but I couldn't say anything anymore. He stumbled and followed Shui Xiu and walked back. Just in front of the queen's carriage, Pei Yuanzhang was still standing beside him and looked at it regularly. He said to me, "Girl."
"Mrs. queen ..." I walked over and gave her a blessing. She looked at my low face and said, "Why is my face so ugly?"
Pei Yuanzhang also turned to look at me, seeing my pale face and frowning, "What's wrong?"
I reluctantly said, "No, nothing."
His eyebrows tightened a little, and Shui Xiu said, "How do you take care of them?"
When Suixiu heard this, she knelt down with a horror and called the emperor to forgive me. I hurriedly said, "It has nothing to do with her, I have nothing."
At first everyone was walking on their carriages, but when they saw the emperor, they stopped and there were a few concubines standing there looking at this place. What else do I want to say, Pei Yuanzhang already Turning to Yu Gong justice: "Another carriage for Yue Qingying."
"This--" In such a place, it was difficult for a strong man to get another carriage. I looked at the embarrassment of the father-in-law, and the sharp eyes of several concubines around him looked at them. Hurrying: "Emperor, no need, Weichen--"
"that's it!"
He didn't allow me to say any more, turned around and returned to his car.
I stood still, I could n’t move for a while, I just felt that those around me looked a little ambiguous, and I could ignore them, but only when I met those cold eyes The whole man froze for a moment, but he just gave me a slight glance, as if he didn't care, turned on his own carriage.
It's just that I don't know if it's my illusion. When he got on the carriage, he seemed to stumble.
I bit my lower lip and reluctantly helped the queen mother back to the carriage. She looked at me and looked at the back of the emperor. She reached over and grabbed my wrist: "Girl--"
I said, "Mr. Queen, I know what you want to say."
"you--"
I looked at those eyes behind me and said softly, "I have something to say to you when I refuse to horse."
She looked at me and seemed to see something from my eyes. She nodded gently, and Wu Yan served her to sit down and lowered the curtain.
I looked back, the people around each had already boarded their respective carriages, and Shuixiu was still kneeling beside him, but he dared to run beside him for a long time, and finally returned to me. This carriage— "
I hurriedly said, "Father-in-law, I know, it's okay, I was--"
"The emperor opened his mouth, so you don't have to push it." Yugong said, "It's just not easy to set up another carriage now. So, you should be wronged and squeezed."
Squeeze? I frowned slightly, who squeezed with?
While talking, a carriage was approaching, and the father-in-law Jade carefully lifted the curtain and said respectfully inside, "His Royal Highness, the slave slave offended."
"...!"
Princess, is this Pei Yuanzhen's carriage? !!
As soon as I was shocked there, I heard the sound of laughter and laughter, and said lazily, "This is what Princess Jade said, even Princess Ben cannot afford it."
Yu Gongwei Weinuowuo nodded straight, I walked gently and saw Pei Yuanzhen sitting there, watching me lazily: "Master Yue, we really have a destiny."
"..."
I stood there, didn't move, and didn't walk away. The father-in-law looked at the two of us with a curtain, and his face was uncomfortable, but he didn't dare to say anything to Pei Yuanzhen, only whispering, "Master Yue?"
"..."
Shui Xiu also whispered behind me: "Master ..."
"..."
I gritted my teeth and finally said, "Her Royal Highness Princess, disturbed." After that, I reached out and let Shui Xiu support the carriage. It was only when the father-in-law and Shui Xiu felt relieved and lowered the curtain and walked away. .
.
After a while, the carriage dangled and started to drive forward.
The carriage is not large, but the princess ’s car is naturally different from others. It is covered with comfortable mattresses and a touch of incense. Even if it is a long and boring journey, it is natural to be comfortable here. many.
Moreover, I also saw that Pei Yuanzhen had a book of poems on hand to pass the time.
The two were facing each other in a not-so-spacious space. Once they didn't speak, the atmosphere was a bit depressing. I looked at her and she looked at me. Her eyes were not fierce or malicious, but I believe that she was like me. There is a feeling of confrontation.
After a while, she still spoke first, but said in a chatter: "It's uncomfortable to sit this way, right?"
"OK."
"Are you ready for something?"
"Never."
"Then your girl has no idea too."
"Shui Xiu is the maid of Jingren Palace, who cares for the Highness, not Xiaguan's girl."
Pei Yuanzhen grinned and picked up the opened booklet, saying, "The girls in this palace can only play, but this collection of poems that Qinghan gave me seems to have some meaning. This Not so boring along the way. "
"..."
Although it had been expected that she would talk about light cold when she spoke, when she heard her, there was still an inevitable cramp in the chest. I bit my lower lip and smiled reluctantly, "Is it?"
"of course."
"..."
"I don't know yet. He turns out to like poetry, and there are his comments on it."
"..."
"Do you know which of his favorite poems?"
She looked at me, smiling with an expression of "you must not guess", and picked up the book of poetry and slowly said, "It's the most autumnal nosy, red maple leaves with white heads."
