Chapter 28 Wontons
There was a "boom, bang, bang" sound of chopping meat from the dining room of Prince Qi's mansion.

On the chopping board, the gray meat had turned into a puddle of meat paste.

The cook Bai Lu was taking the maid to make wontons, while Jin Xi was joking with them.

Several people were discussing that the prince and concubine's deep affection was very enviable, when a figure suddenly flashed by the door.

"Tonight!"

Pug was so frightened that she almost jumped up when she was called on suddenly.She turned around and saw Ah Feng standing at the door, she couldn't help asking, "What's wrong?"

"Just to see what you're doing."

"Oh~" The gazes of Bai Lu and the others suddenly became meaningful.

"I'm working." Jin Xi said, "Do you have anything to do?"

"I'm here...Actually, I came to see you." Afeng said, grinning.

Look?Look at me?Pug Xi's face turned red.

The air was instantly quiet.

"Cough...well, the concubine is really amazing." A Feng seemed to be looking for something to say.

"Naturally." Jinxi turned her head away from looking at him.

"Has the princess ever learned martial arts? Riding a horse is so handsome."

Both of them saw the scene of Cheng Muqing leading Lin Heng to ride the horse.And Cheng Muqing's every move, no matter how you look at it, looks like a practicing family.

"Hmm..." Jinxi is a bit stuck, Princess Qi is practicing martial arts, will it be bad to spread the word?So she coughed twice, and scolded, "Why do you care so much!" As she spoke, she raised her hand to drive him away, "Don't disturb us, go and serve the prince!"

"I just like to disturb you." A Feng stuck out his tongue at her, and then ran away.

Jinxi can only stomp on the boy's stubborn attitude.

"Hehe~ I think it's not just that our prince and concubine have a good relationship." Bai Lu and Han Lu looked at each other and smiled.

Jinxi Lianma argued with those people.

But it doesn't seem to be working.

The morning glow in winter is not warm, and the air is also tinged with coolness.

After walking the horses for a few laps, Cheng Muqing and Lin Heng returned to Wenlan Courtyard together.

Since there was nothing to do, Cheng Muqing picked up a book and started to read it.Lin Heng was sitting in front of the desk, holding a brush, looking up at her from time to time, writing something on the white paper.

The atmosphere is surprisingly harmonious.

After an unknown amount of time, Jinxi's voice sounded outside the door, "Princess, breakfast is ready."

"Please come in." Cheng Muqing closed the book, and from the corner of his eye, he saw Lin Heng hiding something in a panic.She turned her eyes, as if she didn't see it.

Jinxi pushed open the door and walked into the room with a few maidservants.Several people placed the meal box on the wooden round table, and only then stepped back after covering everything.

Lin Heng didn't like having other people around when eating, so every time other servants would wait outside the door.

"My lord, it's time to eat." Cheng Muqing called him.

"Yeah." He walked towards her.

"Do you eat spicy? Or vinegar?"

Lin Heng shook his head.

"Original flavor." Cheng Muqing said this, and scooped a large spoonful of chili oil for himself.Then, start eating.

The salty soup is spicy, and the warmth flows down the esophagus into the stomach and spreads to the limbs.

Take another bite of the wonton, the skin is thin and the filling is big, the meat filling almost occupies the entire mouth.

The meat is fresh and pepper water is added, so it tastes very delicious without any fishy smell.

"How is it?" Cheng Muqing looked at him with a smile in his eyes.

"Delicious." Lin Heng nodded, and imitated her by adding a spoonful of chili oil.

"This is spicy, can you eat it?" Cheng Muqing knew the answer as soon as he finished asking.

The little boy just took a sip of the soup, and his face turned red instantly.

His thin lips parted slightly, chattering constantly.

"You can't eat spicy food." Cheng Muqing smiled helplessly and poured water for him.

"I also want to try your method." Lin Heng paused, "It's delicious."

Cheng Muqing raised his eyebrows, "You're already like this, is it still delicious?"

"Yeah." Lin Heng nodded, with sweat dripping from his forehead.

Cheng Muqing took out the handkerchief, her brows and eyes were gentle, and her slender hands gently wiped his forehead.

thump--

He subconsciously dodged back and lowered his head.

"Don't force it." Cheng Muqing put away the veil as if nothing happened, "Give me your bowl, and I'll make another bowl for you."

"No." Lin Heng shook his head.

Cheng Muqing smiled sweetly, and took his bowl forcefully.He quickly took out a clean porcelain bowl and spooned wontons for him.

"I can't get enough from one bowl, and you just gave me this bowl." She smiled sweetly.

"Oh..." Lin Heng put his hands on the side of the porcelain bowl, and secretly looked up at her.

She was eating the wontons she had snatched from him, and she didn't mind that he had used this bowl before.

Lin Heng lowered his head, the corners of his lips curved unconsciously.

There was a "dong dong" knock on the door.

"Princess, the Crown Prince is here." Jin Xi said in a low voice.

"What a coincidence, just in time for dinner." Cheng Muqing got up and said to Lin Heng, "I'll go out to meet you."

Lin Heng followed her all the way until she walked out of the room.

After leaving the house, Cheng Muqing saw Lin Yan not far away, "Why don't you wait in the main hall?"

"It's not that I don't want to see you."

"..."

"How about the seventh brother?" Lin Yan asked.

"It's okay, I didn't even lose my hair." Cheng Muqing said, closing the door, "Have you investigated further? Also, Dali Temple Chancellor, Song Shoufu is..."

"As a princess, you shouldn't ask so many questions." Lin Yan had a harmless smile on his face, "Be cautious in your words and deeds. You have been practicing for two years. You can't still be a curious and reckless girl?"

Cheng Muqing choked, and then argued for himself, "I'm just worried that the prince's arrest is not a coincidence."

"But it turns out that it's just a coincidence." Lin Yan sighed softly, "Golden Eagle Division sent someone to investigate. Those two have been working for more than two years, and the children who have passed through their hands are countless. Therefore, this is not premeditated. The goal Locking the seventh brother...is just a coincidence."

"But..." Cheng Muqing wanted to say something, but found that there seemed to be nothing to say.

This incident, no matter how you look at it, is a coincidence.

No proof, no blemish...

"By the way, that bearded human trafficker committed suicide in prison." Lin Yan said, "It's absolutely decisive."

Cheng Muqing was silent.

"Cheng Muqing." Lin Yan looked at her, "Recently, you've been acting a little impetuous."

"Huh?" Cheng Muqing, who was suddenly named, scratched his head unnaturally, "I know, but after all, it's related to the prince. I... I'm also concerned about chaos."

Lin Yan shook his head helplessly, "In the final analysis, you are still too young. Take it easy..."

Cheng Muqing: ...

What's the matter with this senior's tone?

"Seventh brother, I'm here to see you." Lin Yan walked around her and walked to the double doors.

Push the door...no push.

"What's wrong?" Cheng Muqing thought something happened when he saw him not moving.

"I can't push it." Lin Yan turned around and gave her a look.

Cheng Muqing was full of doubts, and stepped forward to push the door...

Uh... she didn't push either.

She raised her hand, slightly bent her index finger, and knocked on the wooden door, "My lord?"

Without knocking twice, the door opened.

Lin Heng turned sideways to welcome her inside.

"Sure enough, I still have a daughter-in-law~" Lin Yan teased, and just about to follow into the house, the door closed with a bang.

Lin Yan:? ? ?
