After rebirth, I became a scumbag and his aunt
Chapter 16 Chrysanthemum Bun
After taking a shower, Han Youning put on dry clothes, and then the food was served.
The food in Prince Jin's Mansion was quite exquisite, and there was a dazzling array of dishes on the table, because during her period of mourning, all the dishes were vegetarian.
What surprised Han Youning was that in addition to various vegetarian steamed buns, there were also chrysanthemum steamed buns and several flower dishes.
The embarrassing incident of her eating a jade phoenix from Huoshan had already exploded among the bodyguards. Unexpectedly, word of it had reached Zhao Chengyuan so quickly and such a flower banquet was prepared.
Under the surprised gazes of Zi Ling and Qing Ling, Han Youning ate a whole plate of steamed buns and a lot of flowers and dishes.
Han Youning pushed the bowl and chopsticks forward, hugged his belly and sighed with satisfaction, "It's delicious."
This was the most filling meal she had eaten since she was reborn. No, it also included the five years she spent in Beijing in her previous life. She had not had a good meal in those five years. At first, she did not dare to eat in order to lose weight.
, and later there was nothing to eat.
Zi Ling ordered the little girl to take the food away.
She went to the small kitchen, where the little maids were eating the leftover food, and they were all very happy.
"Sister Zi Ling, come and eat too. This is my first time eating steamed stuffed buns with chrysanthemum fillings!"
Zi Ling sneered. The maids like them would prepare other meals in the kitchen, so they didn't have to pick up other people's leftovers to eat.
She took a bunch of copper plates and handed them to a little maid, "Go to the dining room and give this to the cook who makes the chrysanthemum buns. Just say that his food is good. Miss Chen ate the whole plate."
She counted a few more coins and gave them to the little maid, "This is for you."
The little maid happily took the coin and jumped out of the kitchen, "Sister, wait, I'll go right away!"
Zi Ling returned to the main room in a good mood.
Ling'er served tea to Han Youning, "Miss, I've made some scented tea for digestion, please try it."
My young lady finally regained her love for food, and her heart that had been worried for many days finally calmed down.
The young lady calls herself the most beautiful woman in Xiangping Mansion, and she deeply agrees with it, and privately thinks that the young lady's beauty lies in her chubby cheeks.
Seeing the young lady getting thinner day by day, she was afraid that the young lady's beauty would be lost.
Han Youning picked up the tea and drank it slowly, thinking to herself. She ate too much tonight, and she had been hungry for too long, so she had a compensatory mentality. After today, she still had to control her diet. She was embarrassed just now.
He said that the dress he was wearing was a bit tight at the waist.
It's... tighter now.
Zi Ling looked even more ashamed. She had eaten so much, could she still drink it?
This Miss Chen is really disgraceful. How can she be so free to eat at other people's houses? She is so full!
Yu Niang came in from the outside with a basket in her arms, "I have bought everything. Manager Wang is so enthusiastic that he even provided me with a carriage and several guards."
Yu Niang was quite proud, those guards were all so majestic, she had never received such treatment in her life!
Han Youning looked solemn, took the basket, opened the silk covering it, and looked at the contents.
Burn paper money, roast chicken and duck in sauce, fruit snacks, and a small jar of wine.
Today is the day after my grandmother and the others passed away. She couldn't go to the grave in person to pay homage to the dead souls, so it would be better to pay homage from a distance to help them reach bliss as soon as possible.
Qing Ling saw it from the side and immediately understood what they were going to do.
She stepped forward to give blessings and reminded in a low voice, "Miss, you can't burn paper in the palace as a memorial, for fear of violating the prince's taboo. Otherwise, please go and ask for permission before we speak."
Zi Ling was secretly amused. She was really unworthy of publicity. She didn’t understand this kind of truth!
Qing Ling also likes to be nosy, so they can just leave it alone.
Han Youning knew her good intentions and smiled at her, "Thank you for reminding us. We don't have to worship in the palace, so we don't have to disturb the prince. Yu Niang has already found out clearly that there is a river out of the back corner door of the prince's palace, and it is exactly right to burn paper there to pay homage.
Good place."
She knew that going out at this time was a bit risky, but if she could induce Yongpinghou to take action again, face Zhao Chengyuan head-on, and completely force Zhao Chengyuan to the opposite side of Yongpinghou, it would be worthwhile.
Judging from Zhao Chengyuan's behavior, it seemed that he did not want to have a direct conflict with Marquis Yongping. After all, he had always been aloof and a laid-back prince who reassured the emperor.
Now that I think about it carefully, he appeared frequently in the capital in his previous life, after the Anling Hou Lu family was executed. After all, it was his maternal ancestral home, and he could no longer hide his power and stay aloof.
She couldn't win him over to stand on the same front, but she could always force him secretly.
Even if he sees through her scheme, it doesn't matter. Anyway, once he steps into this quagmire, he can't get out easily.
Qing Ling couldn't care less, she lowered her head and retreated to the corridor to guard.
But Zi Ling felt that even outside the house, she was still depressed. She didn't know who died in Miss Chen's family, so she had to burn paper at this time.
If the prince knew about it, he would definitely be unhappy, and he might not be happy with Miss Chen's new life.
She found an excuse and left Anlan Courtyard.
--
Canglan Courtyard.
Autumn is as cool as water, the moon is bright and the stars are sparse. The ground seems to be covered with a layer of white frost, and the bamboo shadows are mottled.
There is a small hexagonal pavilion in the courtyard, with stone tables and benches in the pavilion and red lacquered railings.
Zhao Chengyuan was dressed in a moon-white brocade robe, with picturesque features. He was sitting with one leg bent and leaning on the railing. The white jade wine glass in his hand was empty.
The clear light of the bright moon fell on his stunningly beautiful face, coating him with a cold halo, making him feel alienated and lonely, as if he had been banished to the mortal world.
A handsome guard in black came in from outside the courtyard. It was Luo Ping, Zhao Chengyuan's personal guard.
He handed over his hand and reported, "Your Majesty, there are three groups of people hiding near the palace. Their origins are unknown. They are all quite large, with dozens of people each."
Zhao Chengyuan's expression was indifferent, without any surprise, but the sudden coldness in his eyes made him look like a sharp blade stained with blood, full of blood and full of murderous intent.
This murderous aura can only be cultivated through countless bloody killings. It cannot be obtained by admiring the wind and the moon.
He said calmly, "The origin is not difficult to guess. One group is naturally Yongpinghou's people, and they want to find an opportunity to kill people. The other group is the emperor's people. I took action today, and they are naturally alert.
As for the other group, one of my royal brothers and nephews is here to find out the news. Ignore them and let them hide it."
Luo Ping responded with his hands and retreated silently.
Huo Shan stood aside with his hands down, looking respectful.
Although he has been in the world for more than 20 years and is respected by everyone in the world, he must be very alert in front of this young prince.
Zhao Chengyuan said quietly, "If you have anything to say, just say it."
Huo Shan said, "Your Majesty takes action today. Even with those words, it will inevitably arouse the Emperor's suspicion. In fact, if you don't take action, you can get away with your humble position."
Zhao Chengyuan stood up, walked to the stone table, grabbed the wine jar and poured wine, and said, "If I don't take action, the emperor brother's suspicion will be inevitable, and there will be spies outside the palace, so it doesn't matter."
He drank a glass of wine and said, "You can escape unscathed, can that girl do the same?"
"There is always a 70% to 80% certainty."
Zhao Chengyuan said, "That means we are not completely sure."
How can you be 100% sure of anything?
Huo Shan's face was full of confusion, and he also disagreed with his words, "I'm sorry for the disrespect. I don't understand. Your Majesty is not a soft-hearted person. For a little girl, the price is too high."
Zhao Chengyuan silently looked at the dark bamboo forest with a distant gaze.
After a long time, he said in a low voice, "It's just a matter of convenience. I want to return a favor to her. I have clear grudges and grudges, and there is no reason why I should not repay a favor."
Huo Shan secretly thought, a reminder? You should have paid off that favor long ago!
Not only did he save her life that night, but he also specially sent him to escort her to Beijing. I don't know what kind of rumors will arise in this world.
Huo Shanke, who had not been an escort for more than ten years, suddenly escorted a girl to Beijing and made it public again...
Will you accept escorts from others in the future or not?
