Chapter 162: Meeting King Mu for the First Time
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived, His Royal Highness King Mu has arrived!" Following the announcement from the servant, the newly repaired gate of Yan Ruomeng's small courtyard was pushed open with great force.
When Yan Ruomeng heard the huge noise, her heart ached.
When the two figures stopped in front of her and stopped moving forward, Yan Ruomeng pretended to cough twice.
"Ahem, Your Highness, King Mu, I am seriously ill today and it is not suitable to see guests, so I can only make this decision. I hope that Your Highness, King Mu, will forgive me."
King Mu couldn't see Yan Ruomeng's person, he only saw a weak black shadow through the huge curtain, and he coughed and shook twice.
Knowing that the heroine in his heart was such a weak person, King Mu's heart softened a little.
"It's okay. It's my brother's fault today. He came here without the consent of the emperor's sister-in-law. I just don't know why your yard is arranged like this?"
When Tang Yuchuan heard what he said, he put a half-clenched fist to his lips and cleared his throat, "Yes, when I went out, this yard was not like this."
What they saw in front of them was that the small courtyard was divided into two halves by a huge curtain. One half included the view from the gate to them, which accounted for about one-third of the entire small courtyard area, and the other half covered the house, pavilion, etc.
Rich scenery.
Through the curtain, you can still see Yan Ruomeng half-lying on the recliner, with the maid standing beside her, three or five maids standing behind her, and a smoking incense burner not far from the end of the recliner.
Incense burner? Why is there an incense burner half as tall as a person still placed in the yard?
Tang Yuchuan finally realized what was wrong, and King Mu also noticed the problem.
"Why is this incense burner so surprisingly big? It's still placed in the yard."
When Yan Ruomeng heard that the other party mistook the hot pot rack for an incense burner, she was caught off guard and choked on her saliva, and coughed violently.
In order to clear the droplets that flew into his lungs, Yan Ruomeng took a life-saving posture.
From King Mu's point of view, this made him feel guilty again.
"Sister-in-law, don't be anxious. It's not convenient to say anything. I'm not here for this matter."
"It's okay. I was still afraid that I would offend His Highness King Mu with my current appearance, so I asked the maid to cover it with a curtain. By the way, it can also isolate the virus and avoid infection. In addition, this incense burner contains a prescription prescribed by a folk doctor.
Son, smell this smell more, it will help your condition."
As he spoke, Yan Ruomeng took two deep breaths.
Ah! The alluring aroma of boiled mutton really made her feel better.
Tang Yuchuan listened to her serious nonsense and was too embarrassed to look at her. He clenched his fist unconsciously with one hand.
What kind of big incense burner, the prescription prescribed by the folk doctor is obviously to boil the mutton to this point, and there is no time to hide it.
I don't know if he will be able to get two pieces later.
Yan Ruomeng had no intention of deceiving Tang Yuchuan, but as long as King Mu believed him, it would be fine.
Moreover, King Mu really believed it and took two deep breaths, but then he frowned.
"Why does it smell like mutton?"
Yan Ruomeng, who was immersed in the aroma of boiled mutton, came back to his senses, "Ah? This is, this is because..."
Yan Ruomeng suddenly looked at Liangyu with insufficient brain power, and Liangyu hurriedly answered.
"This is the arrangement of our Highness."
Tang Yuchuan's eyes widened. He didn't eat the mutton, but the pot was passed to him.
But now that everyone was pointing at him, he had to speak with difficulty, "The concubine likes this. She lost her appetite after she got sick, so I asked someone to stew mutton soup. She smelled it and could use more rice."
.”
King Mu looked suddenly enlightened, "It turns out that the emperor's sister-in-law likes this. If I had known this, I would have brought a few from northern Xinjiang. The beef there is excellent."
"Really?" Yan Ruomeng sat up in shock while she was dying. After realizing that she shouldn't be so lively, she slowly lay down again.
King Mu didn't find any clues and just answered her, "It's like this. The climate in northern Xinjiang is very cold and it is impossible to plant crops. Most of the people there make a living by herding. Over several generations, they have accumulated experience in herding, and the cattle and sheep they raise are more
Big and plump, it’s perfect whether grilled or stewed.”
Listening to King Mu's description, Yan Ruomeng's mouth watered.
Tang Yuchuan could tell what Yan Ruomeng was thinking through the subtle movements of the black shadow on the curtain. He felt unbalanced and wanted to end the visit in a hurry.
"Didn't the Third Emperor come to give some gifts to the concubine? It's getting late now, so we should talk about business as soon as possible so that everyone can rest early."
"My brother is not thinking carefully." When facing Tang Yuchuan, King Mu resumed his tone of neither salty nor bland.
After that, a long list of gifts was announced, first the gold, silver, and jade given by various palaces, then the furs and furs brought back by King Mu, and several large boxes of things, which directly occupied the space in front of the curtain.
half.
Yan Ruomeng was so itchy that she wanted to quickly open the curtain and see what belonged to her, but King Mu seemed to think it was not enough.
"My brother also brought a lot of thank-you gifts for the people in northern Xinjiang. However, the emperor's sister-in-law is seriously ill at the moment and cannot go out. When the emperor's sister-in-law recovers from her illness, I will take you to see those things in person."
When he heard that there were gifts to receive later, Yan Ruo replied without even dreaming about it, "The relationship is good."
"cough!"
Tang Yuchuan's unnatural coughing made Yan Ruomeng suddenly realize that now was not the time to establish a good relationship with King Mu.
It was time for her to see off the guests, "His Royal Highness King Mu has just returned to Beijing. It was a tiring journey all the way, so why not rest early today."
In order to finish the trick, she waved to Liangyu, who helped her stand up with difficulty.
When King Mu saw that the shadow was walking with difficulty, he hurriedly left.
"The emperor's sister-in-law is absolutely right."
Yan Ruomeng watched as King Mu's shadow gradually faded, but he still wasn't sure that he could come out to meet people, so he kept talking.
"Your Highness, has King Mu returned?"
Tang Yuchuan stopped talking nonsense to Yan Ruomeng and directly opened the curtain with one hand. The hanging hot pot shelf suddenly appeared in front of him. The soup inside was still rolling. On the shelf where the vegetable plates were placed, there were also several plates of cut vegetables.
The bright red mutton slices are stacked in a volcano shape as thin as cicada wings.
"Is this the prescription you said the old doctor prescribed?"
Faced with Tang Yuchuan, Yan Ruomeng became bolder, especially after hearing his strange words. Yan Ruomeng was not used to it. She held her hands in front of her chest, raised her chin and said to Tang Yuchuan, "Isn't it possible?"
Is the demo still having sex with him?
Tang Yuchuan narrowed his eyes, "Of course not, you are a patient, you should rest at this point."
After saying this, in full view of everyone, he directed the rest of the people, "Come here, the concubine is seriously ill. It's time to rest at this point. In order not to disturb the concubine's rest, move this thing to the courtyard of the palace.
.”
After all, this place is named after Tang, and there are many people who listen to Tang Yuchuan.
Several guards walked to the hanging pot, and each one easily lifted it up and left.
Chapter completed!
