Chapter 356 When the fellow meets the fellow, there are no tears in his eyes
"What? Princess Pluto actually went to the mountains to dig wild vegetables?" Princess Ruyue asked, looking at the basket of wild vegetables with a look of disgust. Princess Ruyue's voice was loud, and Murong Xi knew that she might have done this on purpose.
After hearing Princess Ruyue's words, the ladies inside also looked at the basket filled with wild vegetables. Princess Pluto actually went up the mountain to dig wild vegetables? It's so vulgar, does His Highness Prince Pluto know?
Murong Xi laughed, isn't this the result Shu Bingyao wants? Look at the eyes of these women in front of them, they want to drive her out.
I really want to give myself an award, the Best Actress Award, ahem. Is it easy for me to pretend to be stupid?
"Princess Ruyue, is there anything wrong with digging wild vegetables? Wild vegetables are very delicious. When I was in the countryside, I grew up eating wild vegetables." Murong Xi said with a smile.
"Did Princess Hades grow up in the country?"
"Isn't Princess Pluto the princess of Linfeng Kingdom?"
"You don't know, Princess Pluto is the princess of Linfeng Kingdom who has been missing for sixteen years. She must have grown up in the countryside for the past sixteen years, otherwise how could she know wild vegetables?"
After these women heard Murong Xi's words, they started talking to each other one by one.
Shu Bingyao laughed at this time. She originally wanted to wait until everyone was admiring the flowers before people discovered that Princess Pluto was just a stupid woman with no beauty. However, she did not expect that Princess Pluto would let her stupidity show up just at the beginning.
came out.
Shu Bingyao pretended to be very considerate, glanced at the women, and then said slowly: "Pluto Princess knows what is wrong with being frugal, and I have heard people say that wild vegetables are indeed very delicious. Yao'er here
Thank you to Princess Hades for the wild vegetables, Yaoer is very touched."
Because of Shu Bingyao's words, these women silenced themselves. Most of these women still looked at Murong Xi with strange eyes, probably because they thought Murong Xi was not worthy of His Highness Pluto. Only then did Murong Xi find the man sitting in the corner.
As a woman, she did not look down on Murong Xi's behavior like other women, but was very disdainful of Shu Bingyao's words. Murong Xi was curious, whose family this woman was from?
Princess Ruyue coughed slightly and then said: "Princess Pluto, please sit down, we will go to the garden to enjoy the flowers later."
Murong Xi didn't say anything and sat directly next to Princess Ruyue.
The content of the conversation between these people was basically the topics that their daughter's family loved very much, but Murong Xi was not interested. Therefore, they chatted in full swing, and Murong Xi just sat quietly drinking tea. She did not intend to interrupt, anyway.
Just pretend you don't understand anything.
Shu Bingyao also glanced at Princess Ruyue from time to time, which meant that she was right, Princess Pluto was really stupid and hopeless. After Princess Ruyue received Shu Bingyao's gaze, she nodded from time to time. It seemed that
In response to Shu Bingyao, she was right.
After all, Princess Ruyue had also met Murong Xi on the day of the palace banquet. When she saw Pluto for the first time, she wanted to marry Pluto. However, the Pluto Princess sitting next to him was too much.
It was an eyesore. However, this Princess Pluto was so beautiful that she didn’t dare to think anything wrong about it. Until Shu Bingyao told her a few days ago that Princess Pluto only looked like she had an appearance, but was actually extremely stupid. In fact,
Pluto may have long been disgusted with Princess Pluto. Princess Ruyue didn’t believe it at first, but Shu Bingyao briefly told Princess Ruyue about the family banquet that day. Of course, it was impossible to tell the whole process.
For Princess Ruyue, she just picked out some key points.
Princess Ruyue is naturally very curious, what kind of Princess Pluto is she?
Therefore, she asked Shu Bingyao to think of a way for her to see if she could meet this Hades Princess. Shu Bingyao meant that if meeting alone seemed abrupt, it would be better to take advantage of the flowers in the palace to bloom well and hold a flower viewing party. Yes. Invite more noble ladies so that it won't look rude.
Princess Ruyue immediately agreed and thought the idea was very good. So, today's flower viewing party was held.
And Murong Xi was sitting there doing nothing. Although she was drinking tea lightly, her eyes could not stop. She was observing the women in front of her, and she found that most of them were surrounding her. Shu Bingyao was talking to Princess Ruyue. She felt that these women seemed to be fawning over Princess Ruyue and Shu Bingyao. Of course, some women were talking about their own affairs.
For example, she just saw the girl sitting in the corner chatting with another girl. The two women did not approach Princess Ruyue and Shu Bingyao, but seemed to be really reminiscing and chatting.
At this time, it was Shu Bingyao again, she said softly to everyone: "We are just talking about this, why did we leave Princess Hades here to hang out? Princess, don't just sit here, let's talk together."
Originally, those noble ladies were very jealous of Murong Xi's appearance, but what happened just now shocked them. However, Shu Bingyao was trying to smooth things over here, so they couldn't say anything.
"I'm very happy to hear you talk, but I can't understand it. You talk about yours, and I'll drink tea and eat cakes here. You know that I can't resist the delicacies of Nanzhao Kingdom." Murong Xi said like this. Like a foodie, after saying that, he picked up another piece of pastry and put it in his mouth.
Princess Ruyue was filled with contempt when she saw that Murong Xi was so unworthy of the stage and could only dismiss Murong Xi with these pastries.
But Shu Bingyao still said with a smile: "Okay, the garden will be ready soon, let's go enjoy the flowers together."
After a while, a maid came in and whispered a few words to Princess Ruyue. Princess Ruyue showed a happy smile and said: "The garden is ready. Why don't you all follow me?" Let’s enjoy the flowers in the garden.”
At this time, Princess Ruyue pulled Shu Bingyao beside her and whispered a few words in her ear. Shu Bingyao was stunned for a moment. Seeing that Princess Ruyue had walked away, a hint of calculation flashed in her eyes, and she hurriedly followed. Princess Ruyue’s footsteps.
Everyone followed Princess Ruyue towards the garden and saw the layout of the garden. Murong Xi actually smiled. Princess Ruyue paid great attention to this flower viewing.
The garden was full of flowers, and the faint fragrance of flowers came to the nostrils. In the pavilion on one side of the garden, herbal tea and pastries had been prepared. Princess Ruyue took everyone to the pavilion, and then saw the maids walking towards with tea. Everyone. Princess Ruyue said: "Everyone, try it. This is the tea specially prepared by my princess using nectar. It is sweet but not greasy and has a very good taste. Also, this pastry is specially made from flowers in the kitchen. Everyone, sit down. Come down and have a taste. Let’s enjoy the flowers and taste the delicious food today.”
The maid first handed Murong Xi a cup of tea. Murong Xi opened the lid and smelled it. Sure enough, a burst of fragrance hit his nostrils. It was made from jasmine tea and honey. Murong Xi took a sip of the jasmine honey tea. ah.
And these noble ladies also took a sip and started praising it.
"Princess, this tea tastes so good. It's different from the tea we usually drink. It's not only sweet, but also has a hint of jasmine fragrance. When you drink it, your mouth will be filled with the fragrance of jasmine." The woman exaggerated.
said.
Afterwards, some people followed to please Princess Ruyue, and then said: "Yes, Princess, this tea is delicious and the pastries are also very good."
How delicious is this tea? Can you teach us how to make this tea?"
Princess Ruyue said with a smile: "Haha, this method of making honey tea was taught to me by Yao'er. Doesn't it taste good? When I drank this tea for the first time, I drank it all the time.
I have a big pot of it. There is also this pastry, which Yaoer taught the kitchen to make. It is not only beautiful, but also very delicious."
Only then did Murong Xi take a closer look at the pastries on the table. They were completely different from what he had just eaten in the hall. The pastries just now were the traditional pastries of this era, such as osmanthus cakes, mung bean cakes and the like.
And the plate of pastries in front of me is... The pastries are pink and transparent, and the flowers inside are indeed cherry blossoms. Is this cherry blossom jelly? Or cherry blossom pudding? This thing is naturally not uncommon in modern times, but Shu Bingyao was able to think of this method in ancient times. It seems that Shu Bingyao
It is indeed possible that he is her fellow countryman.
When Murong Xi was curious, the maid brought something else, and there was actually an orange on each plate.
When Murong Xi was curious about how the oranges were brought up to eat, the maid who was walking in the front suddenly seemed to trip. The plate tilted, and the oranges fell to the ground with a gurgling sound. You know, all the maids in the palace are...
How could someone who has been trained not be able to hold something up at this time? It was Murong Xi who had sharp eyes. Naturally, she saw that Shu Bingyao silently extended a foot to the maid, which made the maid stumble.
She took the plate away. Why is this? Why did Shu Bingyao trip the maid and make the orange in her hand fall to the ground. If nothing else, the orange should have been placed in front of her. Is there something wrong with the orange?
I saw the maid trembling slightly and not knowing what to do, she quickly knelt down and said, "Slave, this maid didn't do it on purpose. For some reason, she slipped the plate and didn't hold it."
"Trash, if you don't clean it up quickly, you will be embarrassed here." Princess Ruyue's eyes flickered as she scolded the maid in front of her.
Then she said to another slave without leaving any trace: "Give this princess' share to Princess Hades first."
"Yes." The slave brought the orange in front of Princess Ruyue to Murong Xi.
"Pluto Princess, I've made you laugh." Princess Ruyue said sheepishly.
Murong Xi just paused and didn't think too much. It had already fallen to the ground anyway. It was no longer important for her to know what was in the orange. She was just curious, what was the purpose of Shu Bingyao's appearance?
The small interlude passed quickly, the maid also withdrew, and the orange was placed in front of Murong Xi again.
When he placed it on the table next to him, Murong Xi discovered that the orange was cut from the top, and the top was like a lid. When Murong Xi took off the lid, an orange fragrance emitted from the orange, and it was placed inside.
It's actually egg custard.
Guess, Shu Bingyao is 100% her fellow countryman.
Murong Xi was not curious about these things because she had seen them all in her previous life. She only saw that the women were very curious when they saw the dishes of delicacies placed on the table.
A voice sounded: "Oh, what is this? It's so beautiful. I can't bear to eat it. How can there be such beautiful food?"
Murong Xi followed the sound and saw the woman pointing at the cherry blossom pudding and saying in surprise.
However, Murong Xi still held a piece in his hand and was about to put it into his mouth.
But another girl exaggeratedly said: "Is this an orange? Why is it so big? Oh my God, it smells so good. What is in it?"
