365 [Glass of Wine] (Part 1)
"Joining forces to attack you? I don't quite understand why you have such weird self-confidence. For Miss Lin's sake, I can let you have a hand to compete with you."
Ye Qi said with a smile on his lips.
In fact, Pei Yue's martial arts cultivation has improved very quickly in the past two years. Knocking Lu Jiang unconscious with a knife in Liyuan was just a small test. If it weren't for the top masters in the world who taught him tricks day after day, it would be impossible for Pei Yue to become a true martial arts master.
None of the masters had the opportunity to make so many achievements in the Western Region. Whether it was the owl leader Ba Daoying's deputy general or Zhang Qingbai's subordinate Ten Thousand Captains, none of them had superb martial arts. It was just a dream.
Ye Qi is naturally stronger than the current Pei Yue, but if she gives up a hand, the outcome is still uncertain.
Pei Yue was not stupid enough to think that Ye Qi really wanted to compete with him. He smiled and nodded: "Don't give up a hand. Even if you don't move your limbs and just stand there, I have already lost."
.”
Lin Shuyue next to her said curiously: "I knew Miss Ye was very powerful, but I didn't know she was so powerful."
Pei Yue waved his hands and said: "No, this has nothing to do with martial arts cultivation. It's just because Ye Qi is so beautiful. I can't bear to do anything. Of course I can only tie my hands and raise the flag."
Lin Shuyue couldn't help but laugh, and Ye Qi said angrily: "Glib tongue!"
Having said that, the smile in her eyes betrayed her true feelings.
Pei Yue now roughly understood the whole story of today's incident. In fact, he could tell from Ye Qi's words that it was obviously not the truth to humiliate Lin Shuyue, and it had nothing to do with him not caring about Lin Shuyue.
After leaving Kyoto, Pei Yue had almost no free time for a day, and even when he was lying in bed, he had thousands of thoughts in his mind.
The situation of the court, the general situation, planning, calculation, and conquest were all these things that surrounded him from beginning to end. It was relatively easy when he was in Yongzhou and Yunzhou, because these two places are not too far from Kyoto, and the locals
The officials were in awe of him as the deputy imperial envoy, so things went smoothly.
After arriving in Lingzhou, his situation was extremely difficult and dangerous. He had to forcibly walk a bloody road with his own feet.
In this situation, he was like a taut string with no room to slow down.
After coming to Linqing, on the surface he lived in seclusion and seemed to be temporarily separated from the busy state, but Ye Qi and Lin Shuyue knew exactly what he was doing. What Ye Qi said just now was not false, Pei Yue has been staying with him
In his study, while instructing Wei Rui and others to speed up military training, they were analyzing the border situation day and night.
Now he has two main sources of intelligence. One is Peiyu Pavilion where Duan Yuzhu is located. She will summarize the news in Lingzhou and send it to her every day. The second is the agreement he and Lin He reached before. Taishitai Pavilion continues to
Send the battle report from the border to him. Lin Hesheng was seriously injured and temporarily unable to take charge, and Xiao Qingyin did not dare to offend this hot young powerful man.
In the scene between Ye Qi and Lin Shuyue, I just couldn't bear to see him busy non-stop, so I found a poor excuse so that he could really get away and find a chance to breathe.
After thinking about the connection, Pei Yue was moved. He suddenly raised his head and said to Ye Qi: "Do you want to listen to the show?"
When Ye Qi saw the look in his eyes, he knew that Pei Yue had understood his intention, so he did not continue the act and shook his head: "I don't want to."
Pei Yue smiled and said: "It's better to be cleaner. Today I will cook in person and invite the two heroines to try my cooking."
Lin Shuyue looked surprised and stared at him curiously.
Grain Urn
Although she has a humble status now, she has been an official lady for more than ten years. She has never heard of any child from aristocratic family who can cook. From ancient times to the present, it is impossible for any man with some power to work in the kitchen. Even in ancient times, Even the sages disagree. How can a gentleman serve pots and pans even if he is studying or practicing swordsmanship?
Ye Qi knew the details of Pei Yue.
When she was in Kyoto, she and Taohua were together, and the two of them usually talked most about topics related to Pei Yue. She still remembers Taohua's expression when she talked about the past, the maid and the young master in the narrow courtyard of Dingguo Mansion. They depend on each other for life, and the young master has many advantages, but his cooking skills are terrible.
When Taohua was sick, Pei Yue almost burned down the kitchen when cooking. She had been talking about this for several years, and even Ye Qi was familiar with it.
Seeing Pei Yue volunteering, she curled her lips and said, "I'm not hungry, so you can cook it for Miss Lin."
Lin Shuyue was so alert that she immediately heard what Ye Qi meant, so she smiled sheepishly at Pei Yue and said softly: "Master, I just ate several pieces of snacks and I haven't digested them yet. I'm afraid I won't be able to eat them anymore." Woolen cloth."
Pei Yue chuckled, waved his hand, and said without any doubt: "You have to eat if you don't want to, and neither of you are allowed to run away!"
More than an hour later, Ye Qi stood by the lotus pond, constantly throwing fish food into the pond, leading the fish to swim under the water.
Lin Shuyue stood aside quietly, looking at her movements for a while, and then looking at Pei Yue not far away, her eyes becoming more and more curious.
I saw Pei Yue wearing short clothes, with a long simple stove set up with blue bricks in front of him, with a fine barbed wire mesh on top, and fine charcoal that had been lit below.
He rolled up his sleeves high and put his hair simply on his head. There was no trace of the grace of an imperial envoy in this look. He looked just like a hawker selling food in the streets. The maids wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, and all of them looked suffocated. It was red, as if it had been roasted by fire for a long time.
There are two tables next to the stove, with various ingredients and condiments placed on them.
After throwing away the fish food, Ye Qi turned around and came to Pei Yue. He looked up at the sweat beads on his forehead and said with a half-smile, "Is this what you call cooking skills?"
Pei Yue responded and said enthusiastically: "The green bricks and ironware were sent by people from the county government, Mozhi County, and the high-quality fine charcoal is the inventory of the Yan family. It is said that it is the top grade prepared for the old man Yan in the winter." .There are several kinds of condiments that are not easy to see. Several big families in the city hide them like treasures. If Deng Zai hadn't mentioned my name, those people might not be willing to take them out."
Ye Qi watched him spread the ingredients strung from clean branches all over the wire mesh, methodically turning them over repeatedly, and then sprinkling condiments on them. His movements were a bit unfamiliar at first, but he soon became extremely skilled.
She said with some confusion: "Is this why you mobilize so many people?"
Pei Yue turned to look at her and chuckled: "You will know later whether it is worth it. Ye Qi, I never like to brag, but these meals will definitely satisfy you."
Ye Qi knew his temperament, so he did not refute this sentence, but asked with confusion: "Why do you look so skilled?"
Based on her understanding of Pei Yue, this guy has never done anything similar before.
