Volume 1: The War of Wars and Chaos Chapter 38: Sneaking in
Luo Yu smiled happily when he saw Li Shimin's squirming way.
But Li Shimin said: "Bring me some clothes later, I don't want to see my sister like this!"
Qiu'er looked at Li Shimin who had changed his clothes and tied his hair. He looked completely different from the wandering young man he had just seen in front of Guancheng. She happily circled around Li Shimin.
Qiu'er was not asked to tell Li Xiuning that Li Shimin planned to give her a surprise.
Luo Yu didn't say that Li Xiuning was injured just now, otherwise this bastard would really rush down again and fight to the death with the Mongolian cavalry.
Qiu'er wiped away tears. The two siblings were very close to each other. The second young master seemed to be a different person now, with an indescribable temperament. The young lady would definitely be very happy when she saw it.
Li Shimin followed Qiu'er to Li Xiuning's bedroom door. Qiu'er was about to knock on the door, but was pulled away by Luo Yu. Give the two siblings some space.
Knocking on the door, a familiar voice came from inside: "Wait a moment!" Li Shimin really wanted to push in right away.
Luo Yu knew that Li Xiuning had black gunpowder inside. She had always followed Luo Yu's request and kept this kind of killer weapon a secret. As Luo Yu said, once she knew the formula, it would be really easy to make the explosives.
After a while, Li Xiuning said: "Please come in!" It should have been packed up.
Li Shimin suppressed his excitement, pushed open the door, and saw a small living room. The furnishings inside were very simple, except for a coffee table and a few chairs. There was nothing else on the coffee table.
, a steaming teapot.
The walls are very monotonous, with no calligraphy or painting, but there are a few weapons hanging on them, including knives and swords. The original owner here should be the garrison of Guancheng.
After stepping in, there is a desk on the right, with several thread-bound books neatly placed on it, and a few brushes hanging on the pen holders. Li Xiuning was sitting in front of the desk just now, enjoying herself.
On the left is the bedroom separated by a hanging bead curtain. It may have been occupied by men in the past and was not so elaborate, so it was not separated from the small hall.
The two siblings looked at each other. For a long time, Li Shimin slowly walked up to Li Xiuning, who had already sat up, and softly called out: "Sister!"
From the beginning of shock, Li Xiuning's expression kept changing from worry, excitement, blame to joy in the end.
Most of her injuries have healed, and now she is no different from ordinary people except that she can't mount her horse and rush into battle.
Li Shimin's nose was so sensitive that he could smell the lingering smell of medicine in the house the moment he opened the door. When he saw Li Xiuning's expression, he knew she was injured.
Luo Yu stood at the door and waited for a while. Seeing that there was not much movement inside, he hurriedly went over to help his sister and brother close the door, and told Qiu'er: "Don't let anyone disturb them. I'll make something to eat to celebrate."
!”
Qiu'er smiled and nodded. Not only did she see the second young master today, but she could also eat delicious food made by Luo Yu. She felt happy just thinking about it.
Yang Man should be resting at this time, but she couldn't sleep, and she didn't know what happened to Luo Yu and the others. Who was the Condor Shooter targeting? A series of questions bothered her, how could she sleep?
Yesterday, when the arrow fell, although she knew it, she couldn't hide away. She was like a mouse being stared at by a cat, feeling uncomfortable all over but unable to move.
Until Luo Yu rushed forward and hugged her away. Although it was a bit flawed, he also hugged Qiu'er, but she liked that feeling very much, the feeling of being cared for.
She also knew that this was not good and could not damage the relationship between Luo Yu and Li Xiuning, but then she thought about it, Luo Yu was not a creature in the pond, and he would definitely soar into the sky in the future. What's so strange about having three wives and four concubines? As a princess, I and
Li Xiuning should be treated as an equal, so her status should not be insulted.
Thinking of this, I became happy again. I can also have excellent men. Since my father doesn't want me anymore, then I will earn my own future. What's the big deal.
If Luo Yu knew Yang Man's thoughts, he would laugh angrily. He has an obsession with monogamy in later generations and feels that it is enough for a heart to only accommodate one person. If there are more, it will be distracting.
For example, right now, he couldn't be distracted because a big pot of vegetarian dumplings was about to be cooked.
Yang Man was a little hungry. Her room was closest to the kitchen. When the aroma wafted in from the open window, her stomach made an unsatisfactory sound.
She swallowed, and the aroma penetrated directly into her mind. She got up regardless and went to the kitchen, where she saw Luo Yu using a large colander to fish dumplings out of the big pot.
Luo Yu, who was working hard, didn't notice Yang Man's arrival. He picked up the dumplings and put them in a large basin aside to cool down before giving them to Li Xiuning and the others.
As for the people outside, of course there are cooks to cook. Even Luo Yu, who was exhausted, could not cook enough meals for nearly a thousand people.
Yang Man quickly came to the big basin and looked at half a basin of dumplings of the same size. The aroma was so fragrant that she couldn't hold back. She looked around and saw that there were no chopsticks, so she reached out and grabbed one. She stuffed it into her mouth without fear of burning it.
Only then did Luo Yu realize that Yang Man was eating the dumplings secretly. He turned around and said with a smile, "Don't worry, there are still many. You have to dip this into it to make it delicious. Try it."
Yang Mangui is a princess, so she has eaten dumplings before. However, the dumplings sold in the palace look good, but they taste tasteless and not fragrant at all. Luo Yu's dumplings are relatively small, one bite is just right, but the one he just ate was unexpectedly
It's plain stuffed and so fragrant.
Before she could swallow it, Luo Yu held a small plate with something like soy sauce in it. It was dark and tasteless at first glance, but the aroma of the seasoning made her decide to try it.
I picked up another one, dabbed it on the dipping sauce, and put it into my mouth regardless of the image. The unique aroma of the seasoning mixed with the taste of noodles and vegetables filled my entire mouth.
The unique spiciness of pepper mixed with soy sauce and other unknown things is indescribably delicious. How did Luo Yu come up with it?
Looking at Yang Man's appearance as a little girl, Luo Yu still felt a little pity for her. Her noble status as a princess could not hide the fact that she was an illegitimate daughter. Although she had no worries about food and clothing, Yang Guang may have taken advantage of her by raising her to have a relationship with the aristocratic family.
Family marriage.
In later generations, she would still be in high school at this age, and would be held in the palm of her hands as a treasure by her parents and family, but here, she faces a battle of life and death every day, and it is difficult for her.
Put a plate on a plate and give it to her, asking her to eat slowly, but help her look at the dumplings in the pot, and tell her that when the dumplings float, add a spoonful of water, and wait until the water boils again before taking them out of the pot.
Yang Man nodded while eating. Now that it's delicious, put the rest aside for now and eat seriously.
Luo Yu discovered that there are very few women in ancient and modern times who are not foodies. When they encounter something they like to eat, they don’t care whether it makes them fat or not. They eat until they are full first.
He picked up the pot of dumplings, placed four dipping plates on top of the dumplings, and slowly walked to Li Xiuning's room.
It's been an hour, and the two siblings should have finished chatting. They have to eat before they finish chatting. It's not good to talk when you are hungry. The "gurgling" sound of your stomach will make people very embarrassed.
Qiu'er has been guarding the door. Whether she is in Chang'an or outside, except for performing military duties and resting, she seems to have never left Li Xiuning's side.
She had smelled the aroma a long time ago, and she wanted to go to the kitchen to see what delicious food Luo Yu was making, but she also knew that she would have something to eat later, so she couldn't rush it.
No, after a while, Luo Yu personally delivered it, carrying a large basin of delicious food.
Seeing her impatient look, Luo Yu nodded and signaled for her to call the door and it was time to eat.
Li Shimin opened the door and saw Luo Yu carrying a large wooden basin. He smiled and said, "What are you holding?"
Luo Yu walked over and asked, "How is it? You didn't get beaten, did you? Your sister is not that easy to talk to..."
Li Xiuning's sinister voice came: "Come here and I will talk to you!"
Now the two of them looked at each other and did not dare to speak anymore. Don't offend the angry woman, otherwise you will be looking for trouble.
Qiu'er brought a basin of water with a smile, and after Luo Yu and others cleaned their hands, they brought chopsticks. Qiu'er took out four small plates and placed them in front of the four of them.
Luo Yu said: "If you eat it with this thing, the taste will be different. By the way, I belong to Xiuning. You haven't recovered from your injury, so you can't eat pepper." After saying that, he changed Li Xiuning's small plate.
The three people who had never eaten dumplings like this before found it novel, and they all imitated Luo Yu and ate it. Not to mention, it really had a unique flavor.
Li Xiuning ate slowly, but when he saw Li Shimin feasting happily, he said: "Eat quickly, no one will fight with you, and there is more!"
The four of them all laughed, and Li Shimin said seriously: "Sister, Luo Yi's side refuses to give up Changshan. The right wing of our side is empty. I'm not worried. Why don't I lead some people to guard it? Jingxing Pass is also easy to guard.
Difficult to attack."
Li Xiuning glanced at Luo Yu, saw him nodding, and said: "The slightly injured women's army sisters have almost recovered. You can take them there, but you must promise me not to act on impulse. Protect yourself. Protect yourself."
Good to them."
Li Shimin smiled and said: "Don't worry, sister, the terrain over there is narrower than here. They can't organize a large group of people to attack. The only thing they need to worry about is the eagle shooter. That guy is really difficult to deal with."
Luo Yu said: "At first I suspected that he was here to kill Yang Man, because he only shot one arrow at Yang Man. Today when you were charging down below, he popped up again and wanted to kill Yang Man, which made me
Now I’m a little doubtful of my previous inference.”
Li Shimin said: "No matter who he is targeting, if I see him shooting an arrow again, I will definitely kill him. He will just hide in the dark. What kind of hero is he?"
Li Xiuning said: "Second brother, how can there be so many rules in the battle on the battlefield? That's because they have eagle shooters. If we had them, I would do the same. Killing the enemy's general will save many lives!"
Luo Yu said: "Yes, I think so too. You guys should finish your meal. Qiu'er, put the things away!"
Qiu'er knew that they had something they couldn't let others hear, so she hurriedly picked up the empty basin and walked out, closing the door and standing guard at the door.
When Luo Yu saw Qiu'er closing the door, he said to Li Shimin: "Have you ever come into contact with gunpowder in the special operations team?"
Li Shimin wondered: "I haven't heard from Instructor Xue that I have been exposed to gunpowder. Do the firecrackers set off during the New Year's Day count?"
Li Xiuning stood up and took out a vase the size of a human head from under the bed, with leads already installed on it. It should be considered a prepared mine.
Li Shimin said: "Sister, what is this?"
Luo Yu said: "I will take you to try it later, and I will teach you how to make it when I come back. With this thing, as long as there is food, this place will not be lost."
Li Shimin was surprised and said: "So powerful? I can't wait to see its power!" After saying that, he picked up Luo Yu and walked out to find a place to try it.
Luo Yu had no choice but to pick up the mine and let Li Shimin pull him out.
Exactly:
Love can't help itself, we met in the kitchen.
During my leisure time, I encountered a strong wind.
