Chapter 16 Chrysanthemum Bun
After taking a shower, Han Youning changed into a dry dress, and the food was served.

The food in Prince Jin's Mansion was quite exquisite, and the table was filled with a variety of beautiful things, because she prepared vegetarian food during the filial piety period.

To Han Youning's surprise, in addition to all kinds of vegetarian buns, there were also chrysanthemum buns and several flower dishes.

The embarrassing story of her eating a Qiongtai Yufeng in Huoshan had already exploded among the bodyguards. After all, it was unexpected that it would reach Zhao Chengyuan so quickly, and such a flower feast was prepared.

Under the surprised eyes of Zi Ling and Qing Ling, Han Youning ate a whole plate of steamed stuffed buns, and also ate a lot of flowers and dishes.

Han Youning pushed the bowl and chopsticks forward, hugged his belly and sighed contentedly, "It's delicious."

This was the most satisfying meal she had ever eaten after her rebirth, no, plus the five years when she went to Beijing in her previous life.In those five years, she didn't eat a good meal. At first, she didn't dare to eat it to lose weight, but later she didn't eat it.

Zi Ling ordered the little girl to remove the food.

She went to the small kitchen, and the little maids were eating the leftovers, all very happy.

"Sister Ziling, you come to eat too, this is the first time I have eaten buns with chrysanthemum stuffing!"

Zi Ling snorted, for the big maids, the dining room will bring other meals, so they don't have to pick up other people's leftovers and eat them coldly.

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 made the chrysanthemum steamed stuffed buns. Just say that he cooks well, Miss Chen ate the whole plate."

She counted a few more copper coins for the little maid, "This is for you."

The little maid took the copper plate happily, 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, this servant has made scented tea for digestion, please try it."

My young lady finally regained her love for food, and her heart that had been worrying for many days was finally at ease.

The young lady claims to be the number one beauty in the Xiangping Mansion, and she also deeply thinks so, and privately thinks that the young lady's beauty lies on her chubby cheeks.

Seeing that the young lady was getting thinner and thinner day by day, she was afraid that the young lady's flourishing beauty would be wiped out.

Han Youning picked up the tea and drank it slowly, thinking secretly.She ate a bit too much tonight, and she has been hungry for too long, so she has a compensatory mentality.After today, she still needs to control her diet. She was embarrassed to say just now that the waist of the dress she was wearing was a little tight.

Now it's... tighter.

Zi Ling was even more ashamed at the side, she ate so much, can she still drink?
This Miss Chen is really embarrassing, how can she eat so freely in other people's houses?It actually lasted like this!

Yuniang came in from the outside with a basket in her arms, "I've bought everything. Steward Wang is enthusiastic, and even provided me with a carriage and several guards."

Yu Niang was very proud, those guards were all majestic, she had never received such treatment in her life!

With a solemn expression, Han Youning took the basket, opened the silk cloth covering it, and looked at the contents inside.

Burn paper money, roast chicken sauce duck, fruit snacks, and a small jar of wine.

Today is the third day after my grandmother and the others passed away. She can't go to the grave to pay homage to the souls of the dead.

Qingling saw it from the side, and immediately understood what they were going to do.

She stepped forward to give a blessing, and reminded in a low voice, "Miss, it is not allowed to burn paper to offer sacrifices in the palace, for fear of violating the taboo of the prince. Otherwise, the slave girl will go and ask for instructions before we talk about it?"

Zi Ling was secretly amused, she really didn't know how to get on the stage, she didn't understand this kind of reasoning!

Qingling also likes to meddle in other people's business, so let them make trouble.

Knowing her good intentions, Han Youning smiled at her, "Thank you for reminding me. We don't have to bother the prince since we don't worship in the mansion. Yu Niang has already found out that there is a river outside the back corner gate of the mansion, and it is right to burn paper to worship there. Good place."

She knew that it would be risky to go out at this time, but if she could attract Hou Yongping to attack again, face Zhao Chengyuan head-on, and completely push Zhao Chengyuan to the opposite side of Hou Yongping, it would be worth it.

Now that I think about it carefully, he appeared frequently in Beijing in his previous life, after Anlinghou Lu's family was executed.After all, it was his maternal ancestral home, so he couldn't allow him to keep a low profile and stay out of it.

But it was too late to act at that time.

People are dead, what's the point of everything?
Qingling couldn't be more concerned, she bowed her head and retreated to the porch to watch.

Zi Ling felt that even outside the mansion, she was still depressed.I don't know who died in Ms. Chen's family, so she insisted on burning the paper at this time.

If the prince found out, he would definitely be unhappy, and he might be unhappy with Ms. Chen.

She found an excuse and left the An Lan 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 hoarfrost, and the bamboo shadows are mottled.

There is a hexagonal pavilion in the courtyard, with stone tables and benches in the pavilion, and red lacquer railings.

Zhao Chengyuan wore a moon-white brocade robe, with picturesque eyes, and sat leaning on the railing with one knee bent, the white jade wine glass in his hand was empty.

The clear light of the bright moon fell on his stunningly beautiful face, casting a cold halo on him, alienated and lonely, like an exiled fairy falling into the mundane world.

A handsome guard in black came in from outside the courtyard, it was Zhao Chengyuan's close guard Luo Ping.

He cupped his hands and reported, "My lord, there are three groups of people hiding near the palace, their origins are unknown, and there are quite a few of them, each with dozens of people."

Zhao Chengyuan's expression was indifferent, without the slightest surprise, but the coldness flashed across his eyes, making the banishment look like a blood-stained sharp blade, full of blood and murderous intent.

This murderous aura can only be cultivated through countless bloody killings, not just by enjoying the wind and the moon.

He said in a rambling voice, "It's not difficult to guess the origin, one group is naturally the people of Yongping Hou, who want to find an opportunity to kill people to silence the rumors. The other group is the emperor's people, this king took action today, they are naturally alert. As for the other group, one of the king's brothers and nephews is here to find out the news. Don't pay attention to them, let them hide."

Luo Ping cupped his hands and retreated silently.

Huo Shan stood aside with his hands down, with a respectful expression.

Although he has been in the Jianghu for more than [-] years and is respected by everyone in the Jianghu, but in front of this young prince, he has to be very energetic.

Zhao Chengyuan said lightly, "If you have anything to say, just say it."

Huo Shan said, "My lord will take action today, even with those words, it will inevitably arouse the suspicion of the emperor. In fact, if you don't take action, you can get out of your humble position."

Zhao Chengyuan got up, walked to the stone table, grabbed the wine jar to pour wine, and said, "If the king doesn't act, the suspicion of the emperor will be inevitable, and spies outside the house will also be indispensable, it doesn't matter much."

He drank a glass of wine and said, "If you can get out of your body, can that girl do it too?"

"There is always [-]% to [-]% certainty."

Zhao Chengyuan said, "That means we are not fully sure."

How can everything be [-]% sure?
Huo Shan's face was full of confusion, and his words were quite disapproving, "Forgive me for being disrespectful. I don't understand the humble position. The prince is not a soft-hearted person. For a little girl, the price is really too high."

Zhao Chengyuan looked at the black bamboo forest silently, his eyes were far away.

After a long time, he said in a low voice, "It's all right, return her favor. This king has clear grievances and grievances, and there is no reason not to repay a favor."

Huo Shan secretly thought, the grace of reminding?You should have paid off that favor!

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 Jianghu.

He, Huo Shan, hadn't been an escort for more than ten years, and suddenly escorted a female doll to Beijing, and put it on the bright side...

In the future, should other people's darts be picked up or not?
