Farmer’s Wife Has Magic Skills

   Chapter 626 626. Visiting the Palace at Night (25)

  Chef agreed frankly, "Yes, please come with me, girl."

  Following the chef, several people came to the kitchen. There was a small compartment in the kitchen, which was specially used for cooking medicinal meals. There was a small pot on the stove, and the small pot contained medicinal residues.

  Chu Qingzhi brought the small basin in front of her, took a pair of chopsticks, picked up the medicine dregs and smelled it, there was no smell of cotton seeds.

  She turned her head and asked the chef, "Why don't you dispose of the medicine residue?"

   "One of my apprentices has a sick mother at home. He wants to take these medicine dregs home and boil them again for his mother to drink. Seeing his pity, I agreed."

   "How many apprentices does the chef have?"

   "Three apprentices, I usually cook the medicated diet, and they will learn from the side, but apart from them, no one else is present during the cooking of the medicated diet."

  Seeing the chef’s proud look on his apprentice’s face, Chu Qingzhi complimented him, “Famous teachers give rise to outstanding apprentices, so the chef’s apprentices must all have outstanding abilities.”

  Chef said cheerfully, "Girl is awesome, but they are all working hard, and they will be able to graduate in a short time."

   "The chef taught you well." Chu Qingzhi secretly looked at the kitchen with her spiritual sense, but did not see the three apprentices of the chef, "Where are the three apprentices of the chef now?"

  Chef said, "They do some small businesses by themselves, and they all go out to set up stalls in the afternoon to do business, and they learn from me in the morning."

   She worked hard, Chu Qingzhi didn't say anything more, "Let's take our leave first, thank you for telling us this."

  Chef smiled and nodded, "Walk slowly, girl."

  Chu Qingzhi and Chu Qingning returned to the courtyard where Chu Qingyue lived.

  Chu Qingyue poured tea for the two, and asked with concern, "Fourth Sister, Fifth Sister, how are you doing?"

   "It's definitely not the chef's business." But other things are hard to judge, Chu Qingzhi said, "It's getting late now, let's check tomorrow."

   "Alright, the food is ready, eat first and rest well, thank you for your hard work today." Chu Qingyue walked to the dining room with her two younger sisters.

  After dinner, Chu Qingzhi went back to her room.

  There is a clump of green chrysanthemums outside the window, which blooms just right, and the scent of chrysanthemums floats into the room, making the room a little more elegant.

  Chu Qingzhi leaned against the window with her arms folded, staring at the green chrysanthemum in a daze...

  When I saw her this afternoon, she felt that the distance between her and Tang Jinghong seemed to be getting farther away, and she felt a little uncomfortable.

  The night wind blew, and the green chrysanthemum swayed unsteadily, as if greeting Chu Qingzhi.

  Chu Qingzhi came back to her senses, dodged and left the room.

  …

  General's Mansion.

  In the study room, Tang Jinghong looked out of the window, feeling depressed and a little uncomfortable. His deep eyes were fixed on one point without moving for a long time.

  Suddenly, an unusual sound of wind blew over, his eyes instantly focused, and he looked ahead vigilantly.

   A moment later, the figure that made him miss appeared in front of his eyes.

  His eyes moved slightly, flashing surprise.

  Chu Qingzhi flew into the study from the window, and hugged Tang Jinghong directly, "There is something wrong with you this afternoon."

  Tang Jinghong raised his arms and hugged the girl in his arms tightly, feeling happy, "I was just thinking wildly."

   "What are you thinking about?"

  Tang Jinghong sniffed Chu Qingzhi's hair lightly, the uneasiness and hesitation in his heart slowly settled, and he said slowly, "I thought, I thought you..."

   "What do you think I am?"

   Tang Jinghong said softly, "I thought you didn't like me very much."

  Chu Qingzhi reflected on herself, "Is it because I broke the appointment?"

   Tang Jinghong was silent and did not speak.

  Chu Qingzhi told Tang Jinghong what happened to Chu Qingyue today, "Jinghong, I'm sorry, I ignored you."

  He didn't know that Chu Qingyue had encountered such a thing. Tang Jinghong felt a little bit wrong, "I should also say sorry, I should care more about you, and shouldn't doubt our relationship just because of some random guesses."

"Just talk about it. If you have anything to say in the future, you must tell me, don't be bored." Chu Qingzhi patted Tang Jinghong's chest, she secretly said, she never thought that a man would also be unconfident in his relationship , let’s spend more time with Jinghong in the future.

   "I see, I won't do it in the future." Tang Jinghong became happy, and a smile appeared on his brows involuntarily.

  Chu Qingzhi withdrew from her embrace and kissed Tang Jinghong, "I like you very much. In my heart, you are the best man in Daling. Don't doubt my feelings for you."

  Hearing these words, Tang Jinghong felt that he had no regrets in this life. He gently pulled Chu Qingzhi into his arms, "Qingzhi, I'm sorry, I won't do it anymore."

   "Well, trust me in the future."

   "Okay." After a while, Tang Jinghong let go of Chu Qingzhi, "I'm going to explore Prince Zhang's mansion at night, do you want to go with me?"

   "Okay, when?"

"immediately."

  The two of them changed into night clothes, put on their ordinary appearance when playing Peter Pan, and left the general's mansion.

  …

  Zhang Wangfu is the residence of Wang Lulizhang with a different surname.

  The king with a different surname has a high status. Although he is usually low-key, the mansion is still in a relatively good location, covering a large area, and the mansion is exquisitely furnished.

  In the night, the two landed on a roof, Tang Jinghong handed a map to Chu Qingzhi, "The map of Prince Zhang's Mansion."

  Chu Qingzhi received the map in her hand, unfolded it, looked at it for a while, and memorized the map in her heart.

   "Okay." She rolled up the map and returned it to Tang Jinghong.

  Tang Jinghong looked at Chu Qingzhi, and asked Chi, "Do you mean memorization?"

   "Yes." Chu Qingzhi answered very naturally.

  Tang Jinghong, "..."

  Is this a photographic memory?

  At this moment, a figure flew into Prince Zhang's mansion and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

  Chu Qingzhi looked at the direction where the other party disappeared, and asked Tang Jinghong, "Do you know that person just now?"

   Tang Jinghong was not sure, "It looks familiar, but I can't tell who it is."

  Chu Qingzhi didn't ask further, "What is our task tonight?"

   "Investigate Zhang Wang secretly, what else is he doing besides smuggling refined iron."

   "Let's go."

  The two of them flew into Prince Zhang's Mansion and disappeared into the shadows.

  …

  In the study.

  A man in black knelt on one knee in front of the desk, "My lord, we haven't found any trace of Lu Yichen, he seems to have disappeared out of thin air."

   "Disappear out of thin air?" Lu Lizhang tapped his fingers on the table lightly, and the sound of the tap made the atmosphere in the quiet room even more tense, "Where was he last seen?"

   "At a merchant on South Street, when he turned into an alley, we chased him and disappeared."

   Aren't you afraid that he will take revenge on Wu Yaqing? Lu Lizhang couldn't understand Lu Yichen a bit, and said, "The person Lu Yichen is closest to in the capital is Tang Jinghong. If you follow Tang Jinghong, you should know where Lu Yichen is."

   "Yes, my lord."

   "By the way, wait for the opportunity to kill Tang Jinghong and Chu Qingzhi."

"yes."

   "Also, if you really can't find Lu Yichen, then arrest Wu Yaqing, and he will appear."

"yes."
