Chapter 28 The Princess and the Compressed Cookies
The next day, Huo Qubing got up early, washed and ate, and prepared to go to Liu Qing.
But before he could go out, Yao Zhao hurried over.
"Is something wrong?" Huo Qubing asked.
Yao Zhao looked a little strange. He drove Xiong San away as soon as he came over, as if he had something secret to tell Huo Qubing alone.
When Yao Zhao was questioned, his attitude was a little awkward, as if he had something to hide.
Huo Qubing said: "If you have something to say, just say it directly."
Yao Zhao took a breath: "When I was fighting with people in the Zonghengdao, you used your magical power to transfer the power of military strategy to me, and helped me defeat the monster in the Zonghengdao."<
/p>
Huo Qubing nodded. The military force at that time was combined with the honey trap he was promoting. The charm value increased sharply, and the soldiers served bravely, so the military force that was gathered and promoted was particularly powerful.
"The power you blessed me with...besides military power, what other magical powers do you have?"
Huo Qubing's thoughts moved slightly, and he vaguely understood what Yao Zhao meant, and said coldly: "Do you want to learn magical powers other than military skills?"
Yao Zhao immediately said loudly: "Please Huo Shizhong teach me."
"What do you want to do to learn this magical power? Tell the truth!" Huo Qubing said firmly.
Yao Zhao confessed: "When the magical power was added to my body, I felt that my whole body was hard, and my offensive and defensive abilities were greatly increased.
And...afterwards, the ability gradually faded away for about two hours, and completely disappeared after one day and night.
I want to learn this magical power of military strategy to make my body as hard as armor."
"Then what?" Huo Qubing squinted.
"Then...be a real man and keep women awake all night." Yao Zhao's eyes shone as he finally revealed his ultimate goal.
Huo Qubing turned around and left: "This magical power is a talent. If you don't have this talent, you won't be able to learn it."
"I do, I definitely do."
Yao Zhao followed behind unwillingly: "I want to give it a try. If I really can't learn it, please ask Huo Shizhong to add me once every evening. I will use it at night.
In the future, I am willing to die to repay you for your great kindness."
"Get out!"
Yao Zhao was startled, but he still didn't give up. He followed behind, thinking hard about how to learn this magical power that makes men invincible.
Huo Qubing first went to the palace to fulfill his duty as an attendant.
Near noon, I went to Changle Palace and asked to see Princess Liu Qing.
The inner palace of the royal family is not easy to get in and out of, but Huo Qubing is somewhat of an exception. He often went in and out of the palace when he was young.
However, when he came to Changle Palace, he still submitted his greeting invitation very formally.
Liu Qingben was sitting quietly in the palace palace to circulate his Qi. When the palace maid came to report that Huo Qubing wanted to see him, he said with a cold face: "He still dares to come, let him in."
The seventeen-eight-year-old palace maid responded quickly, quickly walked outside in small steps, and welcomed Huo Qubing into the Changding Palace.
Ever since she saw the famous Huo Shizhong from Chang'an, the heartbeat of the little palace maid secretly accelerated.
Huo Shizhong's upright posture and cold and beautiful face are like a stick thrust into a quiet pool, causing ripples in the blue waves and stirring the woman's heart.
Liu Qing changed into palace clothes in the back hall before walking out slowly.
In the Changding Hall, the pilasters are inlaid with jade, which is restrained yet luxurious.
The main hall is grand, with Huo Qubing waiting behind one of the low seats.
He was dressed in black Hanfu, and he was sitting there with a majestic air. The moment he stood up to greet him, his sharpness suddenly appeared, and his eyes were bright: "I have met Princess Pingxian."
Liu Qing's nickname is Princess Pingxian.
"Huo Shizhong."
Liu Qing walked quickly and came to the low seat at the front to sit down. His eyes with thick eyelashes closed and he asked directly: "Didn't that cat come with you?"
"What cat?"
Huo Qubing suddenly said: "The princess is talking about your majesty's spiritual beast? It is a lynx, but it has short legs and a small body. It looks like a cat. Your majesty likes it very much. I just raise it on behalf of you. It usually only listens to
His Majesty’s orders.”
Liu Qing wanted to go to him to settle the matter of letting the cat bite his neck. He was originally very angry, but he didn't expect Huo Qubing to say that it was His Majesty's cat and picked him clean. He immediately stopped and said angrily:
"It turns out that Mr. Huo is such a scoundrel."
This princess has a different style in every look and smile. She feels cold and glamorous when you first meet her, but after getting acquainted with her, you will find her charming side.
Huo Qubing changed the subject and said, "I have come to ask you something important, princess."
"You want to ask me that day when you first entered the cave, did you find out the real cause of death of Master Zongheng?" Liu Qing said angrily.
"The princess's intelligence is something I only see in my life."
When you should bow your head, you have to bow your head. I just pushed the big cat issue to His Majesty, now I have to give him a sweet date and say that he is smart to a level I have never seen before. It is a bit exaggerated, but it can ease the atmosphere.
Liu Qingyu's anger was still lingering, and he raised his hand and touched his jade-white neck: "What do you think about letting the cat bite me? Otherwise, you can't get any news from me?"
"So the princess really found out?" Huo Qubing directly ignored Liu Qing's conditions.
Liu Qing nodded slightly, with bright almond eyes: "I ask you what to do if the cat bites me?"
"How dare I let the cat bite the princess? I just explained that the cat belongs to your majesty."
Huo Qubing looked at Liu Qing's expression and chose to sell the big cat in exchange for information: "Next time, I will bring the cat and let the princess handle it?"
"Seriously."
"It's true. But the princess is pure and kind. I don't think she would do anything to me...your majesty's cat." Huo Qubing secretly thought, "Wait for me to bring you the cat.
Liu Qing thought for a moment and said: "That day, the sword energy derived from my soul entered the cave first and found another ray of sword energy. I tried to chase it, but the sword energy derived from the soul was weak, and soon after I chased it out, I lost my sword energy."
No trace.
However... I have a vague feeling that the sword energy is very strong and belongs to the Taoist lineage.
There should not be many Taoist practitioners in the world who can reach that level of intensity, so it may not be impossible to find them."
Huo Qubing hummed and glanced behind Liu Qing.
There are two other maids in the palace, staying respectfully aside.
Now that Confucianism has just emerged, the etiquette rules set for people are not that popular yet, but it is basic etiquette for princesses in the clan not to be alone with men before they are married.
Huo Qubing said bluntly: "There is something else..."
"But you came to ask me about the alchemy technique a few days ago?" Liu Qingdao.
Before Huo Qubing raided Zonghengdao, he went to the palace to find Liu Qing, and also went to the Secret Investigation Institute to ask for help in making a certain artifact.
I came to Liu Qing to inquire about the alchemy refining technique.
Liu List put his hands lightly on the low seat in front of him, and his chest was slightly higher than the low seat, forming a straight-ball perspective.
"I didn't make it clear last time. You just asked me whether corn and rice can be used to make elixirs. But common things like corn and rice have no medicinal properties. What's the use of even if they can be made into elixirs?"
"It's just for food, no need for other uses," Huo Qubing said.
"To satisfy my hunger? Bigu Pill?"
Liu Qing considered: "Do you want to combine the essence of corn and rice to increase the satiety effect?"
Huo Qubing said: "It can be understood this way. I hope to try the method of alchemy. It is best to reduce the volume of food without losing the satiety effect and to prepare a large amount.
Does the princess think it’s possible?”
Huo Qubing's idea is not complicated. In later generations, compressed biscuits were used to satisfy hunger during marches, which ensured that they did not need to carry a large amount of supplies during the march. They were light and simple, and they were more concealed and did not need to be replenished along the way.
It can also be understood as a simplified version of Bigu Pill.
It shouldn’t be difficult to make this thing, just give it a try, there’s nothing to lose if it doesn’t work.
Liu Qing thought about it in his mind. Maybe he could give it a try by making alchemy by adding salt, water and animal fats to the corn, as well as a small amount of medicinal materials that are good for qi and refreshing.
"But why should I help you?"
Liu Qingdao: "What do you want to do by refining this rice pill?"
The two little palace maids standing behind Liu Qing looked intently on the surface, but in fact they could not hide their beating hearts.
Huo Qubing was like a spiritual magnet, making them pay attention to his every move unconsciously.
The beauty trap is obviously all about charm.
At this time, a brown-yellow fur head with brown spots appeared outside Changding Hall.
The big cat lifted its butt and nimbly jumped onto the wall outside the hall.
When Huo Qubing came out from home, he followed him all the way into the palace, taking a walk to relax and find some snacks to eat. Knowing that Huo Qubing was in Changding Hall, he stopped by to take a look and see what his master was doing.
Seeing Huo Qubing and Liu Qing chatting, the big cat yawned boredly and prepared to go elsewhere to find food.
In the hall, Liu Qing's eyes suddenly lit up and he spotted the big cat on the wall outside the hall, and he immediately reached out and grabbed it.
