By the way, Wu Li had long known how delicious the food in Su Mansion was from Bai Qian's mouth. Who made Su Wan rich and wealthy? Even the food eaten by the servants in the manor was not much different from what her master ate.
Unexpectedly, it was finally his turn today. Just thinking about it makes me feel excited...
Su Wan's instructions reached Lin Yi's ears, and within a quarter of an hour, all the tables for Wu Li and the others had been served.
On the round table for ten people, there were ten dishes and one soup, a combination of meat and vegetables, and balanced nutrition. Seeing these secret guards who lived in the open and had only cold water for pancakes all day long, they were all amazed.
"Are these really for us to eat?" A secret guard next to him swallowed his saliva and asked Wu Li.
Wu Li didn't speak. He turned to look at Lin Yi, who was standing aside with his sleeves rolled up and an indifferent look on his face, and asked, "Really?"
Lin Yi smiled, nodded slowly and replied: "Yes, this is our lunch. There are only so many dishes, but the bone soup and white rice are enough!"
As soon as these words came out, Wu Li and the others no longer thought about what they had and what they didn't have. They were all hungry, and now they only had one thought - to eat!
As for other things, let's wait until they finish eating...
For a moment, in addition to the sound of chopsticks touching bowls and plates, there was only the sound of chewing and drinking soup. With a mouth full of food, who has time to talk?
…
Imperial Palace, Fengyi Palace.
The queen sat on the throne at the top, Zhan Wenqing, Zhan Wenmiao and Zhan Wenying sat at the bottom one after another. They were talking and laughing happily, and it was very warm to watch.
"Okay, what you two girls are saying is nonsense. I heard that envoys have arrived in Beijing one after another, including princes from small countries. They plan to take this opportunity to marry me, the princess of Zhaoyue.
I seek Zhaoyue’s blessing.”
"Although your father didn't say anything about this matter, it was definitely brought up at the birthday banquet. Can you guess who will become the wedding princess?"
Zhan Wenmiao and Zhan Wenying looked at each other, and then both looked at the queen.
"Mother, if we talk about the marriage princess, then Zhan Wenlin's biological mother is the marriage princess. Although she is now raised under the lap of Concubine De, she has also been favored by her father for many years. Now it is her turn to do something for me, Zhaoyue.
It’s time to contribute!”
"Yes, Queen Mother. As long as eldest brother does this, you will be the Queen Mother from now on. If you want to fulfill your filial piety by your mother's side, naturally you cannot marry far away."
"As for the other princesses in the palace, their mothers and concubines are also alive and well. If they marry too far away, they will never be seen again for the rest of their lives. I have a kind heart, so naturally I don't want to see such a thing happen -"
Zhan Wenmiao and Zhan Wenying echoed each other, saying "kindhearted" words on their lips, but their eyes were full of disdain.
Zhan Wenqing sat aside, drinking tea slowly and leisurely. Occasionally, he raised the corner of his mouth and showed a warm smile.
After a while, his ears twitched slightly, then he stood up and bowed to the queen, saying: "It's getting late, it's time for the queen to take a nap. I have to go back to the mansion, and there are some things to do."
Although Emperor Xiaoxian granted him permission to live in the palace, Zhan Wenqing only entered the palace during the day and rested in his palace at night.
The person he picked up on the way back to Beijing that day, after recovering from his injuries, did him a big favor - helped him get in touch with Su Liangji!
Of course, if he really wanted to talk about this, he would have to thank Su Wan. If Su Wan hadn't gone to the Prime Minister's Mansion to make a big fuss and "robbed" the entire Prime Minister's Mansion, he wouldn't have had this chance.
The movement on the roof just now was from people who came back to send him a message. Now a large number of soldiers and horses have quietly sneaked into the capital, and his uncle is also on his way back to the capital. He thinks that he will be able to arrive in the capital in two or three days.
When the time comes for the two of them to join forces, they will definitely be able to create a new world and achieve great things!
"Well, I'm tired too. You three brothers and sisters, please go do your own things and let me have a good rest. Remember to come over early in the evening and have dinner with your father--"
"yes--"
The three of them watched the queen enter the back room, and then left Fengyi Palace together, each going back to their respective palaces and mansions...
