Some time ago, Xie Nanxing always found some excuses to dress up extra exquisitely and walk around the streets of Luoan for a while, with a hint of provocation, taking into account the anger of the people of Luoan who dared not speak out.

But ever since Xie Nanxing promised Shen Jinmo that night that he would leave Shendu, every day besides sending Shen Jinmo to court, he would wait for Shen Jinmo to come home.

If Shen Jinmo hadn't been at home, Xie Nanxing would have become even more silent, sometimes sitting in the study for most of the day.

There has been a long debate in the court about whether to overthrow Japan, and the risks that have been brewing beneath the surface are slowly coming to the surface.

On the chessboard of mountains and rivers, the new chess piece will move to the center of the chessboard.

An inky figure walked out from under the scorching sun, holding a handful of emerald green and pink in his hand, which made the inky color look more lively.

Xie Nanxing jumped into Shen Jinmo's arms, and being held by Shen Jinmo with one hand, his legs swung slowly, not afraid of falling suddenly at all.

After wiping the sweat off Shen Jinmo's face with a handkerchief, Xie Nanxing moved his gaze to the bunch of pink and green.

"Lord Shen, you have a good taste. Even such a tense situation and hot weather can't stop you from stealing the beauty?"

He put his arm around Xie Nanxing and walked straight into the house. He had someone bring out the ice jar that had been added not long ago, and then placed Xie Nanxing steadily on the couch by the window.

The lotus leaves that wrapped the lotus flowers and lotus pods were removed, and then a handful of summer bright colors were handed to Xie Nanxing: "It's settled. Tian Ding will take the imperial edict to the East Territory to summon Han Shu and his brother back to the Divine Capital tomorrow."

The decision to summon the brother and sister back to the capital was made some time ago.

Today's decision is to let Tian Ding go to summon him.

"Xia Ling was released to be used to summon Han Zhou back to the court. Why did this matter fall to Tian Ding?"

"At worst, the Ministry of War should be responsible for this."

"Tian Ding was the first one to deliver the imperial edict. Marquis Han was summoned back to the court by nine golden medals. There must be more for Han Zhou and his sister."

There were so many people queuing up behind to get their gold medals.

The only one who could actually summon Han Zhou back to the court was Xia Ling.

Xie Nanxing let out a long sigh. Even though he knew he couldn't use his own thinking to figure out who Xia Ling was, he still felt that everything Xia Ling was doing was in vain.

"He completed a mission that no one else could accomplish, but this mission was destined to ruin the general who was protecting the country. What's the point of getting the position of the East Palace?"

Shen Jinmo knew the fate of every chess piece in this game.

As for Xia Ling, he even wanted to kill him as soon as possible.

"The power that he has proved with his own actions is omnipotent. Today's mistakes, if used properly, will be tomorrow's achievements."

With Xia Hong's demonstration, Xia Ling was not afraid of anything.

Seeing that Xie Nanxing had trimmed the lotus stems, Xiao Gao took the white porcelain vase filled with water and placed it next to Xie Nanxing.

Xie Nanxing first handed the lotus pod to Shen Jinmo, and then inserted the lotus flowers one by one into the porcelain vase. After they were all inserted, he felt that the height was not right, so he selected a few flowers and trimmed them again.

In this short while, Shen Jinmo had peeled half a bowl of lotus seeds.

Xie Nanxing lowered his head and took the lotus seeds that Shen Jinmo had been holding in his hand for a while. His face was squinting as if he had taken some magic medicine.

He tapped the lotus seeds in the bowl with his chin and said, "They are so sweet. You should try some too."

Shen Jinmo did not take any action, but instead looked at Xie Nanxing eagerly.

Xie Nanxing smiled softly, wiped her hands dry, and fed Shen Jinmo several pills: "Is it sweet?"

Nodding, raising his eyebrows slightly: "Sweet."

"Virtue." He spat softly, "Where did you pick this from?"

"It's not easy to keep the lotus in that small pond alive in the imperial garden. I took a fancy to them from the moment the first lotus pod popped out."

Thinking of Shen Jinmo staring at a pond of lotus flowers every day waiting for them to grow, Xie Nanxing found it too amusing.

"You have plucked all the lotus from the pond. Be careful or the Queen will come after you."

That lotus pond belongs to someone.

Ever since Xia Hong drank the scented tea cooked by Zhong Yuanyuan, he has become very interested in the combination of flowers of the four seasons and tea.

In order to drink this pure lotus tea, Xia Hong asked someone to open five or six lotus ponds in the Imperial Garden last winter.

The lotus in Shendu is not easy to grow. The gardeners spent a lot of effort to keep this pond alive, and the flowers bloom much later than those elsewhere.

After being swept away by Shen Jinmo today, Xia Hong's long-awaited scented tea would probably be delayed for a few more days.

Seeing Xie Nanxing finish eating one, Shen Jinmo lowered his head and continued peeling lotus seeds: "The emperor had a nosebleed in the Golden Palace today. The whole palace was in chaos at the time. No one knew that I was the one who pulled it out."

"boast."

Any movement in the palace would be seen by Xia Hong. If Shen Jinmo wanted to leave the palace with such a large bunch of lotus flowers without being noticed, he would have to use invisibility skills.

"No, the emperor takes his pulse every three days, and his meals are checked by Imperial Doctor Shu every day. How could he have a nosebleed?"

If it happened in an ordinary family, nosebleed would be a trivial matter.

But if it happened in heaven, it would be a big deal.

"The weather is hot, and the emperor is afraid of the heat. He soaks in the ice jar every day, and it's hot and cold, and his nose must be uncomfortable."

Shen Jinmo told Xie Nanxing about this as gossip, and Xie Nanxing could only treat it as gossip now.

But Xie Nanxing always felt that something was wrong.

He handed the vase to Xiao Gao and pointed to the bedroom, "Put it by my bed. I might gain a few pounds just by smelling the fragrance of the flowers."

"Yes."

Xiao Gao looked at the lotus leaves that were used to keep the lotus pods fresh and tender. His mind turned and he began to swallow his saliva.

"Master, what do you say about us having lotus leaf chicken tonight?"

Xie Nanxing handed the lotus leaves that were still dripping with water to Xiao Gao, who immediately laughed so hard that his eyes could not open.

"It's hot in summer. You had a nosebleed a few days ago because you ate too much meat. The medicine has just been stopped. If you restrain yourself a little, it can also save your master some money to hire a doctor."

"okay."

Xiao Gao agreed readily, but his mind was full of lotus leaf chicken, lotus leaf fish and lotus leaf duck.

People should enjoy themselves while they can. When they are old and look back on the past, they can still be happy even if they are lying in bed and can't get up.

Who said this?

Oh, that was what Lord Tian, ​​who broke with his master, said.

Xiao Gao decided not to believe this anymore.

Anyone who is not nice to his master is a bad person.

But we still have to eat meat.

Looking at Xiao Gao's chubby back which showed a hint of joy, Xie Nanxing pinched her cheeks and waist again.

He retracted his envious gaze and asked in a very small voice: "Shen Jinmo, is there something wrong with this flower? Do you want to poison me and then marry the girl from that noble family?"

Shen Jinmo frowned and tapped Xie Nanxing on the forehead: "Don't talk nonsense."

This response means that there is naturally no problem with either the lotus or the scented tea.

Unable to figure out what the problem with the palace was, Xie Nanxing simply gave up trying to think about it.

When the time comes, Xie Nanxing will naturally know.
