Love on the Pillow: Pampering the Unscrupulous Queen

Chapter 112 Snowy Red Clay Small Stove

After a snowfall, the entire city of Zhangzhou was covered in a snow-white color.

The streets have been cleared out, and the horseshoes step on the bluestone streets, making a crisp sound.

Feng Jun and Su Qing rode horses and walked along the street in a leisurely manner. There were fewer people doing small businesses on the street at this time of year, only occasionally seeing a few sellers of candied haws and roasted sweet potatoes.

"Li'er, do you like candied haws?" Feng Jun glanced at the vendors on the street and suddenly asked with a smile.

Su Qing shook her head, the weather outside was still a bit cold, even though she was wearing a big cloak, it was hard to avoid the cold wind blowing on her face and causing chills.

"Buy it back for Xiaofeng and that little girl." Su Qing suddenly said again, "Those two little guys might like these. It's cold now, so I'm not afraid of sugar coating."

"Han Yi, you should send back the things you bought first. I will take the princess to the appointment first." Looking at the candied haws stall not far from the gate of the city, Feng Jun said calmly.

Han Yi hesitated, but finally nodded and said, "Your subordinate obeys."

Feng Jun and Su Qing walked out of the city unhurriedly, and when they turned their heads, they saw a grilled food stall nearby under a big tree that had lost all its leaves. The stall owner was a young man with shrunken shoulders. , with a miserable look on his face.

"Drive!" Su Qing lightly kicked the horse's belly, and the steed immediately galloped under him.The fiery red cloak she draped over her shoulders stood out in the wind like the wings of a bird.

Feng Jun was also speeding up at the same time, the two rode side by side, and disappeared in the snow in a blink of an eye, leaving only two rows of horseshoe marks.

"Captain, our horses can't keep up with their pace!" A sergeant wearing a cloth armor and cotton coat saw two figures, one black and one red, gradually disappear from his field of vision at the top of the city, and immediately reported to his commander.

"I'm afraid our supervisor has been noticed by the prince. Send someone to follow up first. I'll report to you and see what we plan to do next." Another middle-aged man with a beard frowned and glanced at the man under the city wall. The situation said.

The cloth-armored sergeant was a little uneasy: "But, that is His Royal Highness, we are like this... If we are discovered, I am afraid that the lives of the whole family will be lost."

The team leader sneered: "Wealth and wealth are in the midst of danger. If you don't have the guts, how can you achieve great things? Shitou, I just recommended you to the higher-ups because you can be reused. Don't kill yourself."

"Captain, don't worry, the little one won't betray your trust." The sergeant seemed to have made up his mind and answered courageously.

The little captain nodded, turned around and went down the tower.

What he didn't know was that the moment he left, a ghostly black figure had already quietly lurked outside the city wall, falling lightly on the snow in the distance like a piece of falling snow.

"This Tang Bin has more ambition than patience." After leaving the city for about ten miles, Feng Jun commented lightly.

"Did his subordinates follow us just now?" Su Qing asked slightly panting.Although the horse ran a little anxiously, it was hearty. It had been a long time since she had traveled with such a relaxed royal horse.

Feng Jun hummed, turned her head to see that a thin layer of sweat had already formed on Su Qing's forehead, hurriedly carried her onto her horse's back, wiped her sweat off, and tightly held her in her arms : "It's cold, don't catch a cold anymore."

Su Qing struggled a little and then remained still. Lying in Feng Jun's warm arms was really irresistible.

"He wants to attack us? He shouldn't be that stupid, right?" Su Qing buried her head on Feng Jun's shoulder and asked with some doubts.

There was a mocking smile on Feng Jun's handsome face: "Little Li'er, have you forgotten that the imperial concubine's birthday is coming. Even if you dare not do anything, but take this opportunity to show your loyalty to his master, it's still a good idea." Necessary."

"Then..." Su Qing raised her head and looked up at Feng Jun.

Feng Jun just kissed the corner of her mouth from an angle, and said with a smile: "Little Lier, try to curry favor with me. Your husband can consider giving half of the gold mine in Cuiping Village to your Xifeng Pavilion."

"Really?" Su Qing's beautiful peach blossom eyes suddenly became sparkling. She thought of the news that two days ago, there was a news from Shishu that the business of Xifeng Pavilion in the south of the Yangtze River was very good, and the supply of jewelry and headgear in the store was already in short supply .

Feng Jun smiled lowly twice, stared straight ahead without answering.

"Cao Min attended His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince, and the Empress of the Crown Prince. It is really rude not to welcome them far away. I hope the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess will forgive me." At the gate of Bieyuan, Ji Yuan brought his inseparable servant Ji Xuan to welcome the two of them at the door. .

"Excuse me." Feng Jun calmly hugged Su Qing and got off the horse, "These two horses are a bit fierce, let the groom be careful, don't get hurt."

"Thank you, His Royal Highness, for your compassion." Ji Yuan smiled calmly, and leaned slightly to invite, "Please."

Feng Jun took Su Qing to the front, and Ji Yuan and Ji Xuan followed behind without any surprise.

According to the practice of the Da'an Dynasty, if a married woman is married, it is best to stay in the deep boudoir to handle housework, and not to come out to show her face.

But almost everyone in the whole country knows that the princess concubine is a narrow-minded jealous woman who will follow the prince no matter where she goes, but His Royal Highness also indulges her and takes her with her regardless of the occasion, so that some people want to use nepotism to climb her. Those who boarded the prince's ship had no way of attacking.

At these times, almost all the officials in Zhangzhou have acquiesced to this law. If they invite His Royal Highness to a banquet, they will definitely meet the Crown Princess.

The construction of this other courtyard is unique. Although the inside is not big, the pavilions are quiet and elegant.

The main house of the Bieyuan has three floors. Everyone climbed up to the third floor and found that the third floor is an empty attic with a wide view. The furnishings inside are even a bit old, and the snowy cedar outside the window is also very beautiful. Antique.

"I don't know what His Royal Highness and the Crown Princess like to eat, so Cao Min presumptuously asked someone to prepare the unique delicacy 'Antique Soup' in the Northland. It tastes delicious, and His Royal Highness and the Crown Princess can have a taste." Ji Yuan led the two The man sat at the table, pointed to a copper pot on the table and laughed.

"I have tasted this 'antique soup' before. My father and brother fought in the Northland for many years. This kind of food is fresh and interesting, and the taste is very delicious. My father and brother let the cook learn to make it for us to taste, but I don't know how it is different from the local pots in the north!" Su Qing couldn't help laughing when she saw the copper pot on the table that had started to gurgle and steam.

"Your Majesty is really knowledgeable, but the grass-roots people are making a fool of themselves." Ji Yuan said with a smile.

Feng Jun sat in the upper seat with her, waved Ji Yuan to sit down together, tried the pot with silver chopsticks, and put a piece of thinly sliced ​​mutton into the boiling soup.

"In the early dynasty, there was a famous person who wrote a poem 'Green Ant's new fermented wine, a small red clay stove. It will snow in the evening, can you drink a cup?', but now we also enjoy the fun of the ancients." Su Qing smiled slightly.

Ji Yuan nodded: "That's true, so Caomin now prefers to focus on mountains and rivers, specializing in delicacies from all over the world, and this life is enough."

Feng Jun put the scalded meat slices on the plate in front of Su Qing, and looked at Ji Yuan calmly: "Young master is loyal and brave, and he was taught by the emperor himself, why do you say that you are frustrated?"

Ji Yuan looked at the sky outside: "The sky is gloomy, and the grassroots are afraid of making mistakes, so they dare not be complacent."

"My son's words are wrong." Su Qing said with a chuckle, "Although the eyes are dim, isn't it clear that the sky is shining through the clouds and seeing the sun? In this world, the sun and the moon change, it's not unusual. The darker the sky, the new sun appears sooner. faster, right?"

"Your Highness..." What Ji Yuan wanted was a promise, but the meaning of Su Qing's words was very clear, so clear that he was a little terrified, and he couldn't help turning his eyes to Feng Jun.

"My son is a smart man, but unfortunately your father can't assess the situation. It's really a pity." Finally, Feng Jun slowly put a pile of hot sliced ​​meat and vegetables in front of Su Qing, and then said.

Ji Yuan's nerves became more tense, he inadvertently exchanged glances with the person behind him, and said without hesitation: "Your Highness, Caomin has something important to report to His Highness!"

Feng Jun narrowed her eyes slightly: "Speak!"
