Datang: I am so happy to marry a disfigured princess!

Chapter 31 Two contracts and one betrothal gift

It was just a poem, but Lin Heng didn't take it to heart.

He was curious about what some people in the court would think when they heard these lines of poetry.

Lin Heng smiled and said: "Your Highness, I wonder what Ma Zhou's reaction was when he heard this poem?"

Speaking of this, Li Lizhi couldn't help but burst into laughter: "I'm telling you, princess, after the poem came out, Ma Zhou's expression changed immediately, and he told me Aye directly, and Aye was also very angry with his uncle after hearing it. After talking for a while, I told my uncle not to forget his roots!"

"Then after my uncle returned, he scolded Changsun Chong, hahaha."

Li Ningxi also smiled and said: "This person wrote this poem, presumably to respond to Lin Langjun so that he could regain his face. Unexpectedly, he forgot that some people in this court also came from humble backgrounds. Besides, this is half of the audience. All the scholars in Chang'an City have been offended, so it's like stealing a chicken but losing a lot of rice."

Hearing these words, Lin Heng couldn't help but laugh. Brother Changsun, Brother Changsun, why are you so brainless? How dare you say such offending words!
This man really hurt the enemy but not the enemy. He hurt himself thousands of times!

Seeing this, Li Ningxi asked curiously: "Lin Langjun, I wonder what the original second half of this poem was. It must not be the second half of the poem written by Chang Sun Chong?"

Lin Heng rolled his eyes and said mysteriously: "I want to know, I'll tell you later!"

Li Ningxi was puzzled, but still asked: "It will be a long time in the future, you have to give a specific time?"

Lin Heng chuckled and said, "Wait until the day you and I get engaged."

Hearing this, Li Ningxi's face turned red and she lowered her head and said nothing.

Li Lizhi on the side felt quite unhappy when she saw this. It was so irritating that people were so much more powerful than others.

Li Lizhi snorted softly and said: "You must have something wrong with that poem. Why don't you tell it and let Changsun Chong embarrass himself again!"

Lin Heng looked at Li Lizhi. No matter how eldest he was, Sun Chong was still his future husband.

He immediately said: "Originally, I didn't plan to say this poem. As for how it reached Changsun Chong's ears, I don't know. But if I say that I want to use this to humiliate Changsun Chong and make him lose face, Princess Your Highness really misunderstood me."

The last poem was just to show off to Changsun Chong, but things developed to the point where Changsun Chong was driven crazy and embarrassed, which was unexpected by Lin Heng.

It can only be said that Changsun Chong is better at running things!
After hearing what Lin Heng said, Li Lizhi stopped chatting about Changsun Chong and asked Lin Heng if he had researched anything recently.

After checking the time, it was almost dinner time, and Lin Heng picked up a pot from the side.

The two women looked at the iron pot, which looked a bit strange. Different from other pots, this flat pot had a bulge in the middle and an opening on it.

Li Lizhi asked curiously: "What kind of pot is this? Why have I never seen it before?"

Lin Heng smiled and said: "Hot pot!"

"I've never heard of it. Is it used for cooking?"

"You'll find out later."

Immediately, Lin Heng went downstairs to prepare the charcoal ingredients. After preparation, Li Ningxi looked at the various vegetables, meats and seasonings on the table, and couldn't help but curiously asked: "Do you want to make pork?"

Lin Heng laughed and said, "Is the pork so delicious? Why do you think about it every day?"

Li Ningxi smiled and said, "It's really delicious. These look like mutton. Is this a new way of cooking it?"

Lin Heng nodded, then lit the charcoal and put it on the hot pot. After mixing the seasonings, he started adding different ingredients.

Only then did the two of them realize that the opening in the middle was actually used to emit smoke. Although the hot pot was made of fine charcoal, some smoke would inevitably appear. If it dissipated from here, there would be no need to worry about choking on the seats. People.

They looked at the plate in front of them and were confused for a moment.

Lin Heng looked at the mutton in the pot and saw that it was almost cooked, so he picked up a piece and demonstrated it to the two of them.

“The meat is cut very thin and cooked in a hot pot, and then paired with this dipping sauce, it tastes amazing!”

The two people understood immediately and started to pick up their chopsticks. Li Lizhi picked up a piece of mutton and tasted it, and her eyes suddenly lit up.

"Lin Heng, the way to eat hot pot is really novel, and the taste is also very good!"

Before she could finish her words, Li Lizhi picked her up again, as if she wanted to strike first.Li Ningxi was much quieter. After picking up a piece and tasting it, her face showed a little happiness.

"Sure enough, Lin Langjun can always come up with some strange things. I have learned a lot this time."

Lin Heng smiled and said: "What does this mean? I still know a lot of things, but we will have a lot of time in the future. If you want to know, I can tell you slowly."

Li Ningxi's face turned red again, and she ignored this guy who always made her blush with sweet words, and started picking up vegetables and eating.

"Your Highness, if you want to eat it, you can do it yourself. I have done so much mutton, why is there not a single piece left?"

Li Lizhi said dissatisfied: "It's all in the same pot. How do you know if it was mine? I even said you ate mine!"

"It's unfair. I didn't eat even a piece of meat. Your Highness, you kept moving your chopsticks, okay?"

"Do you have any objections to this princess?"

"No, but you've already eaten Ning Xi, so what are you going to eat?"

Lin Heng had quick eyes and quick hands. He picked up several pieces of meat with chopsticks and put them directly into Li Ningxi's bowl. He smiled and said, "I saw you didn't eat a few pieces just now, but don't worry, I will definitely make you full." of!"

Li Ningxi blinked and felt a little moved when she heard Lin Heng address her and directly called her name.

She immediately picked up the little meat left in the pot and put it into Lin Heng's bowl: "Lin Langjun should eat it too, otherwise Changle would have eaten it all by himself after working for a long time."

Lin Heng quickly picked up some more green vegetables: "It doesn't matter, I'm happy to see you eating happily."

Li Ningxi reacted immediately: "Lin Langjun should eat more."

"Then eat together!"

Li Ningxi smiled brightly and said, "Just listen to Lin Langjun."

Seeing the two of them putting all the vegetables in the pot into each other's bowls, Li Lizhi's eyes widened: "You didn't even leave any for me!"

The two said in unison: "I want to eat it myself!"

After speaking, the two smiled at each other.

Li Ningxi looked at the scene in front of her. Not only did she feel warm after eating the hot pot, she also felt warm in her heart. She had always liked eating like this with her family, and she could feel it every time she came to Lin Heng's place.

Seeing that the two of them were satisfied with their meal, Lin Heng was a little proud.

He suddenly looked at Li Ningxi, who was a little confused after noticing his gaze: "Why is Mr. Lin suddenly looking at me like this?"

"Of course I looked at it because I liked it."

Li Ningxi's ears turned red and her face felt hot. She lowered her head shyly and let out a sweet sigh.

"Lin Langjun is always out of shape!"

Lin Heng then took out two contracts from his body with a smile and handed them to Li Ningxi.

"What is this?"

Lin Heng explained: "One is half of Anxiang's profits so far, and the other is a contract for the transfer of half of Anxiang's future profits."

Li Ningxi looked at Lin Heng, as if she suddenly thought of something, and became nervous unconsciously.

Then Lin Heng said softly: "This is my betrothal gift, please pass it on to my future father-in-law on my behalf."

"I come from a humble background, and thanks to Her Highness the Princess's respect, I am able to encounter such blessings in life. Although these are insignificant compared to the royal family, they are still a great consideration."

For a moment, Li Ningxi blushed and felt ashamed.
