Chapter 45

Gu Fuyun quickly withdrew her grimace, returned to her dignified lady image, cleared her throat, and said, "Okay, I will personally honor the emperor. Please, Prince Chu, lead the way."

Chu Rui couldn't tell what mood he was in. He glanced at her and strode away.

Gu Fuyun was carrying the food box, but he didn't expect that the food box was made of solid wood with a layer of tin foil inside, which has the function of heat insulation, but it was a bit heavy to lift.

"Girl, it's very sunny outside. This servant will find you an umbrella." Qinghong was careful, fearing that his girl's tender skin would be tanned, so he hurried back to the house, opened the box, and found a peach blossom paper umbrella with a white background.

Under Chu Rui's smoldering eyes staring, Gu Fuyun finally set off with a food box in one hand and an umbrella in the other.

"You women are just wordy." Chu Rui said bitterly, and strode out of the yard.

After walking for a while, he found that there was no movement behind him, so he couldn't help turning his head, and was stunned, but there was no one.He strode back again, and at the corner, he found that nasty woman, holding an umbrella and carrying a food box, walking slowly.I couldn't help being so angry that my nose was crooked.

"Can't you go faster?" Chu Rui said in a bad voice.I really can't stand these ladies from all over the world, they do things slowly and don't talk about it, it's really tedious.

Gu Fuyun said: "I can't walk fast." The weather is so hot, if you walk fast, you will sweat easily, and when the time comes, your body will smell of sweat. What if the emperor is smoked?
What's more, this food box is not light. It is made of genuine solid wood. Although it is not heavy to carry in the hand, it will be tiring if carried for a long time.

This body is also the one that stretches the clothes to stretch the food and the mouth. If it weren't for the frequent exercise in the past three months, it would have been even worse.

Chu Rui gave her a disgusted look, and waited for her to walk up and down before turning around and striding away.

There is a small hill in front, with more than [-] steps, Chu Rui went up in three or two steps.Standing in the shade of the tree and looking at the woman coldly, he walked up the steps slowly, unable to lift the skirt with his hands, afraid of stepping on the skirt, he walked even slower.

Chu Rui endured and endured, and finally turned his head away, hum, he wouldn't help her mention it.

However, this woman's movements are really slow, and she is as fast as an ant for only twenty or so steps.After finally waiting for her to climb the steps, she found that her cheeks had become flushed, and beads of sweat were dripping from the tip of her forehead and nose.

"How long is it?" The left hand carrying the food box was replaced by the right hand, holding the embroidered handkerchief to wipe the sweat from the tip of his forehead and nose, Gu Fuyun's voice was a little panting.It's really a disadvantage for a body that hasn't exercised.

It seems that I have to exercise well when I go back.

Chu Rui curled his lips and left without saying a word.

Gu Fuyun stared at his background, secretly cursing the straight man of steel, but still followed his fate resignedly.

Alas, taking one hundred taels of silver a day is merciless, otherwise she wouldn't want to suffer.

After walking a long way, going downhill and uphill, panting with exhaustion, I finally saw a lot of guards in armor standing on the top of the hill solemnly and sternly, it seemed that the emperor was inside.

The Shuheng Pavilion was used by the abbot of the Great Buddha Temple to receive distinguished guests. At this time, the guards were heavily guarded, with three floors inside and three floors outside.

Chu Rui strode into the monastery, and the guards on both sides hurriedly clasped their fists together: "Commander!"

Gu Fuyun put away the umbrella, put the peach-blossom folding umbrella on the threshold, and smiled at the gate guard: "Brother, I'll put the umbrella here, I'll come out and get it later."

Chu Rui found that she didn't keep up again, so he had to turn his head, just in time to see her smiling at the guards, with a pretty nose and red lips, and clear and gentle eyes staring at him, like the half-opened buds in the lotus pond, full of reverie.

The sun shone on her face, giving her fair and tender face a layer of golden light. The delicate face with a bright smile, and the black grape-like eyeballs inlaid with it were like a piece of high-quality natural jade, which does not need to be embellished. , it will be able to emit a quiet brilliance.

The guard's serious and cold face suddenly turned red, and he stammered, "No, it's fine, but it won't be too long. I'll be changing shifts soon."

"It won't take too long." Gu Fuyun smiled at him again, who said that the guards around the emperor were all cold and unkind, and they were so pretentious?In fact, there is still something to talk about.

"Attracting bees and butterflies." Chu Rui cursed bitterly, with an unknown anger in his chest, stuffy, swollen, rampant.

Gu Fuyun ignored Chu Rui, this person hated him so much, no matter what she did was wrong, why did she have to wait to see his face when she was full?

At this time the emperor was talking to Grandmaster Hong Ya, the fifth princess also knelt aside, respectful and silent, but the body that moved around from time to time was obviously not able to sit still.

Chu Rui came in, bowed respectfully to the emperor and said: "Your Majesty, fortunately, I did not disgrace my life."

The emperor looked at Chu Rui and said with a smile: "Didn't you give you half a day off? Why did you come here again?"

Chu Rui pursed his lips helplessly, and said: "Gu Wu also made food, saying that he would honor the emperor and the princess."

The fifth princess had already seen Gu Fuyun, so she quickly got up from the tuanpu, stepped forward in three steps, and said, "Gu Wu, are you here? Do you know how to cook? What delicious food do you cook?" ?”

Gu Fuyun held the food box in his hand, and hurriedly blessed the fifth princess, wiped his sweat and said, "I made the cold ice powder myself. I would like to invite the emperor and princess to try it."

Opening the food box, he brought out two snow-white porcelain bowls, and placed them gently on the table.

"What kind of food is this? Why have you never seen it before?" The emperor looked curiously at the transparent thing in the bowl.

Gu Fuyun blessed the emperor: "When you return to the emperor, my daughter-in-law Jiao was lucky to find a few plants of ice powder seeds in the garden behind the five princesses' palace, and my daughter-in-law once read in a book that this plant can be used to make I tried to make some ice powder according to my impressions from the past. Unexpectedly, I was lucky and succeeded. This was also thanks to the great blessing of the emperor. Order to reward me with food, the courtiers have nothing to repay, so they can only use this to honor the emperor and princess."

A eunuch stood up and stepped forward, took out a silver needle and inserted it into the bowl, but there was no change in the silver needle.

The emperor said, "Bring it here."

"Wait a minute, Your Majesty." Chu Rui came out suddenly, "Your Majesty, you should be careful when importing food." Glancing at Gu Fuyun, he put the bowl in front of him, took out a silver spoon, took a spoonful, Put it in your mouth, taste it, and swallow it.

"How is it, Chu Qing?" the emperor asked with a smile.

Chu Rui gave the bowl to the emperor: "Please use it slowly, Your Majesty."

The emperor took it and ate it with a spoon. He was shocked as soon as he took the mouth: "What kind of food is this? It's cold and sweet, tender and refreshing. I have never eaten such a food."

Seeing this, the fifth princess couldn't wait to pick it up, scooped it into her mouth, and was also shocked, saying: "It's so delicious, it's cold and refreshing, like ice but not ice, Gu Wu, what's your name?"

"Ice powder." Gu Fuyun explained with a smile: "This is a summer health food that quenches thirst, promotes body fluid and relieves heat, and cools down fire."

The emperor and the fifth princess ate everything in three or five bites, and said with a smile, "It's really delicious, Gu Wu, I didn't expect you to have such a skill."

Gu Fuyun blessed himself with a smile: "If you can make the emperor and the princess like it, all the hard work of my servant will be worth it." He took out the handkerchief and tried the sweat on his forehead.

Facing the emperor, she would really be nervous. Look, she was so nervous that she was sweating.

Fortunately, the emperor was satisfied, so she dared to wipe her sweat with a handkerchief.
