Chapter 43

After the brothel incident, Zhao Xu and Zhao Xi gathered with Fu Lun, and Fu Lun expressed gratitude.

Zhao Xu saw that Fu Lun and the Qing waiter had spent a long time together, and he also thought of his little white rabbit in his heart.

That afternoon, Zhao Xu went to the palace, ostensibly to see the queen mother.

In fact, he just sat for a while in the Queen Mother's Palace and left.

After leaving the Cining Palace, he turned around and went to the dining room.

"Is there any more Longan Lotus Cake?" he asked.

When the people in the dining room saw that it was King Zhao, they did not dare to neglect, and after searching for it to no avail, they replied:
"Go back to Your Highness, I made some longan and lotus cakes in the morning, and they were all offered to the East and West Palace, but there are none now. See if there is anything else you want to eat. The newly made pear flower candy and soufflé are very delicious. I like it."

The people in the dining room thought he was looking for it for the Empress Dowager, and wondered why the palace servants in the Empress Dowager Palace didn't come by themselves, and they also bothered King Zhao to make a trip in person.

On second thought, the grandparents and grandchildren are deeply in love, and they dare not say much.

Zhao Xu frowned and asked how long it would take to do it now.

"It might take two hours to do it now."

For two hours, it was dark.

But Zhao Xu thought about it, ordered them to do it, and went to the Queen Mother's Palace.

After chatting with the queen mother for a while, I went to the side hall to rest on the excuse of being tired.

The queen mother wondered: why don't you go back to the palace to sleep when you are tired, what's the matter in the palace?

She asked her mammy:
"What's wrong with Xu'er coming here this time?"

"Nothing unusual." Mammy thought for a while and continued:
"My lord just went to the pantry just now."

The queen mother didn't know what he was going to do, so she went with him.

Two hours later, Zhao Xu got up, said goodbye to the queen mother in a hurry, and went straight to the dining room.

Holding the freshly baked longan and lotus cake, he left the palace and went straight to Mengfu.

At this time, the sky was already dark, and a few scattered stars appeared particularly bright.

Meng House just finished dinner.

Meng Siyin was about to return to her room when she heard the sound of hooves outside the house, from far to near.

She stood there blankly, and the next second, the door of Meng Mansion was pushed open.

She saw Zhao Xu walk in with a bag of things.

"It's... so late, what are you doing here?"

"What did you say I came for?"

Zhao Xu said angrily, walked over and stuffed a packet of still warm pastries into her arms.

A familiar scent rushed into Meng Siyin's nostrils.

"Longan lotus cake? Is it still hot? Isn't this something that only exists in the palace?"

Zhao Xu hummed nonchalantly.

The last time he heard Meng Siyin chatting with Chu Baozhu, saying that he wanted to eat longan and lotus cake, he remembered it in his heart.

He knew that it was inconvenient for Meng Siyin to enter the palace, so he finally took advantage of today's free time, and rushed into the palace to bring her back.

However, Zhao Xu naturally wouldn't tell Meng Siyin these words, he only said that he was hungry.

Well, because of this package of cakes, Zhao Xu has not eaten for a day.

Meng Siyin cooked some food for him, and the two sat facing each other, chatting while eating.

It can be regarded as a flower before the moon, and the beautiful woman is a pair.

"How is your health recently?" Meng Siyin asked while eating.

"It's alright, but it didn't relapse much." Zhao Xu didn't bother to look up at her, and just kept eating.

Meng Siyin thought for a while, and then asked:

"By the way, what new clues are there in my father's case?"

Zhao Xu swallowed the mouthful, propped up his head with his arms, thought about it, and said:
"A few days ago, someone under my command came to report, saying that there are some clues, but it still needs to be confirmed, and we will wait until he is confirmed."

"Well, just make progress."

Seeing that he had almost eaten, Meng Siyin poured him a cup of tea.

At this moment, the two of them are like a long-term old couple talking in a candlelit night.

"By the way, can you change your herbal diet for me, it doesn't taste anything, I'm tired of it."

Meng Siyin laughed when she heard what he said.

Zhao Xu saw her laughing back and forth, feeling that something was wrong.

"What are you laughing at!"

Meng Siyin covered her mouth to steal the fun, looked at him with a stern face, and said:

"I told you not to be angry!"

Zhao Xu asked her to speak first.

Meng Siyin said:

"I don't, you'll turn your face and don't recognize you later, you promise I won't be angry before I tell you!"

Zhao Xu rolled her eyes at her and said he was not angry.

Only then did Meng Siyin tell him with a smile.

"Actually, you can add some seasonings to those medicated meals, the taste will be better, and it will not affect the efficacy of the medicine!"

Meng Siyin's face flushed with laughter, she was trying to make fun of him at the time, but she didn't think that he was so determined to eat it now.

Zhao Xu was mad at her, looked at her and smiled, stretched out his hand to scratch her itch.

make you laugh!
Meng Siyin hurriedly asked for mercy:
"I was wrong I was wrong!"

Zhao Xu said that he would not scratch his mouth, and his hands scratched even more.

The two had been arguing for a while, Zhao Xu saw that it was getting late, so he said goodbye to her and returned to Prince Zhao's mansion.

A few days later, the shopkeeper of the hot pot restaurant came to Meng Mansion to find her, which was a bit novel.

"Mister Yin, the new dishes you mentioned in the hot pot restaurant are now here, please come and try them."

After all, Meng Siyin is the hot pot owner. The shopkeeper invites her to taste it, and if she can, she can order a new one in the store.

The hot pot restaurant was still full.

Meng Siyin followed the shopkeeper in and saw a table of hot pot prepared, which was indeed a new dish.

Meng Siyin sat down to taste it and felt that the taste was good, so she gave some pertinent suggestions to the cook in the store.

While they were eating, several young ladies in fancy clothes came to the store.

They wanted to eat hot pot, and the shopkeeper told them to wait for a table.

One of the daughters saw Meng Siyin sitting alone at a table, so she dragged the one headed by him.

When these few people heard that Meng Siyin was given marriage to King Zhao, they had long been jealous, and they wanted to bully her when they saw her alone.

The man turned his head and walked over and sat down.

"Why do you sit at a table by yourself, get out of the way!"

"That is, the daughter of a lowly criminal minister dares to go out, get out of the way, we are going to eat at this table."

The shopkeeper hurried over to explain, but Meng Siyin gave him a wink and told him to go down.

The shopkeeper nodded and went back to the front desk to sit down.

Meng Siyin continued to eat with chopsticks, and said without looking up:
"You don't know the principle of first come, first come? Why should I give it to you?"

The woman was very angry and scolded:
"Are you worthy too? Did you know that this hot pot restaurant is only worthy of high-class people, and you don't weigh how many pounds or taels you have!"

Meng Siyin laughed in her heart and thought about it. She had a special identity, so it's better not to reveal her identity. After all, it's not only the Meng family, but also the future Princess Zhao.

She opened her mouth and said:
"How come you can come to a place where high-quality talents come? Don't you know that low-quality talents are inferior?"

The people next to him were talking about this.

The man became angry, but it was inconvenient to attack, so he walked away with a few young ladies next to him.

Meng Siyin thought to herself:
I can't stand the pressure at all, why are you still learning to find fault?
