The little lady of Xuanmen has become popular in the sixth palace by fortune-telling

Chapter 73 Exploration Well
Fu Ling looked at her dumbfounded: "Did you drink?"

Xu Anan nodded very sincerely: "We can't waste it, Poria. You have to practice your cooking skills with Sister Hu, so that next time we can send food to the emperor."

Poria: "..."

Is she doing this to facilitate the Emperor?It was for her own convenience.

Xu Anan spared no effort and continued to praise: "Fu Ling, I found that your cooking skills are also good. If you practice more, over time, you will definitely be no worse than the chefs in the big restaurants outside."

Poria, who was still a little angry at first, was immediately overwhelmed by Xu Anan's praise. She said restrainedly: "I don't think I can be so praised by the empress. I just practiced with the cook for a while in the kitchen of the Hou Mansion. I really can't do it." mesa."

Xu Anan looked at her with a smile and drew a virtual cake for her. She said very inspiringly: "No, no, no, it seems to me to be great. You must carry forward this skill and don't waste it. As the saying goes, if you want to capture a man's heart, you must first capture his stomach. With your delicious food to help, my favor is just around the corner!"

Hu Cairen couldn't be here with her every day. When she wanted to eat snacks, she could just look for Poria cocos.

When Fu Ling heard this, she immediately felt that she had a long way to go: "Don't worry, Madam, when Hu Cairen comes, I will definitely ask her for advice on cooking skills."

Xu Anan looked at her with relief, a child can be taught.

At noon, Cheng Huai didn't come either. He was probably busy dealing with Cen Xingluo's affairs. Whoever asked him to do something so ruthless would have been sentenced to death without any reason.

In the afternoon, Shen Sisi arrived on time and was going to have a barbecue at Ziwei Hall.

Yesterday's one-day trip to Qihe Palace did not affect her appetite at all. To cheer up, she even brought a small bottle of wine from nowhere.

As soon as Hu Cairen arrived, he went to the small kitchen with Fu Ling.

Shen Shensi shook the wine bottle: "Want to drink?"

Xu Anan's scalp feels numb when he sees wine now, and he is determined not to drink it.

But Shen Sisi explained to her: "This is the grape wine that my second brother brought from Xiliang. It's delicious. It's a royal product. I finally begged him to bring me a bottle. Are you sure you don't want to drink it?"

Shen Wangzhi, the second richest brother of Shensi Si, is rich and powerful, so it is not unusual for him to obtain royal items.

Shen Shensi poured a glass for Xu Anan. The color was purple and translucent, and it looked delicious. Xu Anan took a sip and found that the taste of the wine was not strong, but rather fruity.

But she is still visiting her aunt, so she simply tasted it and then didn't dare to touch it.

Xu Anan asked: "Your second brother is back?"

Shen Shensi took a sip and tasted the wine: "Not yet, he is still in Youzhou. He asked someone to bring this wine back."

The neighboring country Xiliang is connected to the border with Youzhou, but Youzhou is very chaotic and has everyone. It is the most unruly state in Daqi.

As she spoke, Yaoyao nodded: "I'm looking forward to his coming back every day now. Youzhou has become even more chaotic because of the drought. Fortunately, His Highness Prince An is there to suppress it, otherwise it would be even more chaotic."

"The emperor succeeded in praying for rain this time. I believe that given time, the problem over there will be solved and my second brother can come back."

Xu Anan looked at her and asked in confusion: "Your second brother was also sent to Youzhou? Isn't he a businessman?"

Shen Shensi sighed quietly: "He's not King An yet. He went to Youzhou with King An. To put it nicely, he is a good brother sharing weal and woe. I don't understand. What's the point of going to that poor place? It's a disaster." There are many of them, the mountains are high and the roads are far away, and no one is there to take care of them.”

"If you open a store there, you won't be afraid of losing money and going bankrupt."

When Xu Anan heard about Cheng Si's traces now, she didn't react as much as she did at first. She was no more than a stranger here.

To dig deeper, he is Cheng Huaiye's younger brother. According to this relationship, she can be counted as half of his sister-in-law.

The barbecue had to be eaten outside the palace. Xu Anan specially asked someone to make a barbecue grill. There were charcoal underneath, and the cooked vegetables and meat were neatly brushed with oil and placed on top. "Hehe, I came just in time, you have just started."

Xu Anan raised his eyes and saw that it was Cheng Qingqiu who came.

Do these people have dog noses?She could smell it all, but with no idea what to do, Xu Anan asked Fu Ling to bring her a pair of bowls and chopsticks.

On the barbecue grill, the meat marinated in the sauce exudes a burst of fragrance. The mutton, pork and river shrimp are all bought by Xu Anan from the imperial kitchen for a large sum of money.

She has no desire anymore, she just wants to eat well.

There was wine, meat, and grilled vegetables, and after all, there was fruit to relieve fatigue. In the end, everyone slumped on their chairs after eating.

Cheng Qingqiu touched his belly with a satisfied look on his face: "Sister-in-law, what are you going to eat here tomorrow?"

Shen Sisi agreed: "Yes, yes, tomorrow I will bring the Xiliang specialties that my second brother sent me."

Xu Anan, who wanted to refuse, hesitated when he heard the words Xiliang specialty.

After all, this group of people had been eating and drinking at her place for several days. She took a cup of hot water and took a sip: "Let's eat grilled fish with sesame seeds tomorrow."

After Shen Sisi finished eating, she slipped back to her Jade Palace.

Cheng Qingqiu wanted to persuade Xu Anan to leave the palace again, but before he had time to ask, he heard the sound of "The Emperor has arrived."

She was so frightened that she stood up in excitement. When she walked to the Wutong Forest, she bowed and ran away quickly, fearing that Cheng Huai would also call her to stop him and settle the score with her.

Fu Ling was thankful that she collected the things quickly, but there was still fragrance in the air. Cheng Huai also frowned and looked at Xu Anan who was standing and asked, "What are you doing?"

Xu Anan immediately said: "I haven't done anything, why are you here, Your Majesty?"

Cheng Huai also threw a stack of intermediate talisman papers from his wide sleeves on the stone table: "It's what you want."

Xu Anan held the talisman paper in surprise. The texture was much better than the one she was using now. Cheng Huai also looked at the wine bottle on the table.

His face darkened: "You still dare to drink?"

Xu Anan quickly denied it three times: "I didn't drink it, I didn't touch it, don't talk nonsense."

"This was obviously drunk by your sister and Shen Shensi, and has nothing to do with me."

Cheng Huai also looked her up and down, and seeing that she was in a clear state of mind and didn't look like someone who had been drinking, he walked towards the palace: "Don't hang out with Cheng Qingqiu."

Xu Anan: "?"

It's so good that even my own sister despises it.

Xu Anan stuffed the talisman paper into the Qiankun bag and hurriedly followed.

*
The night is cold as water.

Xu Anan climbed through the window again and went to Qihe Palace. With the talisman given by Cheng Huai in the afternoon, she would definitely find Cheng Siqian this time.

He Qing followed her and tried to persuade her to go back: "An'an, that well is very deep. How about we go there during the day? It would be too scary to go at night."

Listening to He Qing's complaints, Xu Anan shook the thick immortal rope in his hand: "It's okay. When I get down, you can help me look out for the wind. I'll go back as soon as possible. Do you understand?"
