Quick Wear: I Became the Savior of the Doomsday
Chapter 96 Lotus Seed Soup
After the summer, the weather gradually became hotter, and droughts in the north and floods in the south followed one after another.
Fortunately, Wen Yubai calculated that this year would not be a peaceful year, so he made plans early and could use this opportunity to force Zhong Suran.
Looking at the flowers that Huang Ying had arranged in a white porcelain vase on the table, the flowers that Zhong Suhan had sent today were all pink and white, with layers of petals stacked like raging waves, which were very beautiful.
He reached out to touch one of the pink and white flowers, and supported his chin with his other hand. He was thinking about the man's patience in picking flowers, when he saw in his peripheral vision that the former Jade Beauty, now the Jade Concubine, brought in osmanthus and lotus seed soup. He hurriedly withdrew his hand, sat up straight, pretended that he had done nothing, and picked up the red pen to review the memorials.
He reacted a little slowly. Lady Yu saw all of his reactions and couldn't help but giggle twice with her hands covering her mouth. She thought to herself: Who in the harem is your majesty thinking about? You can't hide the joy in your heart.
"Your Highness, this is lotus root made from lotus seeds that just came down this year. I also put some osmanthus honey in it. Please try it."
There was an obvious teasing look in Concubine Yu's eyes. Wen Yubai resisted the shyness that showed up on her cheeks, but couldn't stop the tips of her ears from turning red. "Yu... Concubine Yu is so thoughtful. I'll eat later. Huang Ying, move a more comfortable stool for Concubine Yu and put two cushions on it."
"Yes."
Concubine Yu smiled and refused. She came this time just to bring him some lotus seed soup, which was his favorite food. However, due to the cold poison in his body, he couldn't eat much. He could only eat a small bowl every summer.
Her eyes unconsciously showed distress, "Your Majesty, although government affairs are important, you should also pay more attention to your health. Government affairs are endless, and some things can be handed over to others. There are many capable people in the court, and there is also the Prime Minister. Don't carry everything by yourself."
It's because the Prime Minister is here that I can't relax.
Wen Yubai sighed in his heart and changed the subject to talk to Concubine Yu about this year's osmanthus honey. Then he heard Huang Ying report that Zhong Suhan was here.
Upon hearing this, Concubine Yu took her leave. When she passed by Zhong Suhan, she couldn't help but take a look at this general who was famous in Kyoto. He was only twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, but he was still as energetic as he was at seventeen or eighteen years old. There was a smile in his eyes, and his face was a little rough, but it still couldn't hide the exquisiteness and good looks of his facial features.
If this man had not married and had not married a court prostitute, I'm afraid his door would have been trampled down by the gentlemen.
Zhong Suhan also noticed this plump beauty, a typical Jiangnan woman, with a very gentle temperament and appearance, which reminded people of the most beautiful lotus in the Lotus State Base. Seeing that she was wearing the jewelry of the imperial concubine, he saluted: "Meet the Imperial Concubine Yu."
"Do you know who I am?" Concubine Yu became more and more interested in this young general. She remembered that she had never met this man before.
Zhong Suhan smiled and said, "Your Majesty has often told me how delicious the lotus seed soup you made is, as well as the candied osmanthus and glutinous rice lotus root. You are wearing the ornaments of a concubine and you smell like candied osmanthus. I boldly guess that you are Concubine Yu."
"I now know why you are invincible on the battlefield. You are so sharp and intelligent. Your Majesty is blessed to have you at the banquet."
Concubine Yu took off a jade pendant from her body and handed it over.
"I remember you got married. When you have time, ask your wife to come to the palace and talk to me. This concubine also wants to see what kind of wonderful woman is the wife that Captain Zhong can be with for the rest of his life."
Zhong Suhan was slightly stunned, took the jade pendant hesitantly, then respectfully saw the person off and followed the eunuch into the study. As soon as he entered, he smelled the fragrance of lotus seeds and the sweetness of candied osmanthus.
"Your Majesty, what delicious food do you want to eat? But Concubine Yu just sent it. I am shameless and would like to ask for a bowl of it too."
She was really greedy. The weather in Dahei Mountain was cold and bitter, and it was hard to find corn, let alone lotus seeds. Lotus seeds were even rarer in other countries. When she saw a bowl of lotus seeds next to him, she took it directly because she was afraid that he would not give it to her.
"This bowl looks good, let's eat this one."
"Hey, you!" Wen Yubai wanted to ask Huang Ying to get him another bowl, but he didn't expect her to snatch his food away. He frowned and wanted Huang Ying to take it back.
When the spoon entered her mouth, her eyes, which were already smiling, became even brighter, and her face was filled with joy that she could not hide. It was obvious that she liked this bowl of osmanthus lotus seed soup very much.
"Forget it, if you want to eat this bowl, then eat this bowl."
He lost his temper all of a sudden. He held his chin and watched her feed the little rabbit a bite. Then he finished the osmanthus and lotus seed soup mouthful by mouthful. He ate very carefully and slowly, and his frown relaxed.
In the previous life, due to her identity as a zombie, she could not taste any human food. She made lotus seed soup with mushrooms several times and added honey that was about to expire that she found in the supermarket. Everyone said it was delicious.
I don’t know which one tastes better, his or Yu Taifei’s.
Thinking of those people, Zhong Suhan couldn't help laughing and sighing. He rubbed Mingqiu's head, who was yawning inside his clothes, and said, "Your Majesty, I am going back. Jiao Liu'er is still waiting for you at home."
Wen Yubai frowned. He didn't understand why she insisted on marrying Jiao Liu'er. He thought she wanted to hide her identity. But wouldn't it be easier to control her by marrying a commoner who had connections?
"Why do you insist on marrying Jiao Liu'er?"
"Sergeant said that when he saw her, he thought of his own daughter. If Meijing grows up, she will be as beautiful as her." Zhong Suhan laughed twice, "By the way, Your Majesty, this year's new champion has a bad character and is not up to the task."
"What happened to him?"
Zhong Suhan told Wen Yubai about Liang Meijing and the top scholar. Wen Yubai thought about it and realized that the top scholar was in a pretty good position now because he was won over by Zhong Suran.
Very good, now I have a reason to pull that person down and replace him with my own confidant.
"I understand. Do you need me to help Liang Meijing get married? Do you have someone you like?"
"No need. If Mei Jing has someone she likes, please ask for grace for her."
Zhong Suhan walked forward with his crutch and wiped the ink off his face. His rough fingertips stroked his tender skin and he smiled gently.
"I hope to be your subject and your majesty's king for a long time. I don't want your majesty to leave me alone in this world, otherwise I will go crazy and want to destroy this world, so please take good care of yourself, your majesty."
Having been immersed in the battlefield for many years, she is not as gentle as ordinary girls. Her gentleness is firm and undying, and her eyes are full of strong aggression.
Wen Yubai just thought this person was hateful. She didn't care about him but insisted on teasing him. Listen to what she said. Is it decent? So he drove her away impatiently.
Aren’t you worried about your wife at home? Why don’t you go back and see if her eyes are swollen from crying?
