Don't be a salted fish, the daily life of the concubine in the palace

...

At dusk, the sound of horse hooves continued to be heard from the East Mountain. The exciting sound of horns penetrated the mountains and scared away the birds.

The hunting men returned with a full load.

Shen Wei stood outside the tent to greet him. The King of Yan rode back in the golden sunset, his horse galloping, the evening breeze blowing across his handsome face, full of vigor and vitality.

Looking at Prince Yan's healthy hands and feet, Shen Wei breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, Prince Yan returned safely, otherwise she would have already started considering changing jobs.

"Prince, you are finally back. I have been worried about you." Shen Wei walked up to him, stood on tiptoe to wipe the sweat from his forehead, her eyes filled with joy and concern.

Prince Yan hugged Shen Wei's waist and said, "Don't worry, I'm fine."

After years of martial arts training, the King of Yan naturally returned with a full load. Shen Wei saw the rows of poor hares, pheasants, and a few deer, and she said admiringly: "Your Majesty is so powerful, I have never seen so many prey!"

The man went out hunting and returned with a full load.

Shen Wei naturally had to praise him and show her admiration and love appropriately.

Prince Yan really enjoyed it. He hooked Shen Wei's nose and said, "Let's have barbecue tonight."

Shen Wei smiled sweetly: "Okay, my barbecue skills are second to none."

As night fell, a blazing bonfire was lit in the center of the camp, and the young people who participated in the Dongshan hunting began to enjoy their prey.

The Crown Prince, the Prince of Yan, the Prince of Heng, and Princess Zhaoyang sat in the most prominent seats. The chef presented the prepared prey.

Shen Wei sat beside the King of Yan and served him. She was in charge of grilling the meat. The King of Yan sat aside and chatted with the Crown Prince about family matters. The relationship between the two brothers was as good as ever.

Shen Wei glanced around and saw Prince Heng surrounded by beauties, and also Princess Zhaoyang with red eyes.

Zhaoyang seemed to have had another quarrel with Yan Yunting. She was in a bad mood and drank alone.

Prince Heng sat crookedly on the couch, wearing a flashy red dress, with his black hair like silk scattered on his shoulders, drinking and having fun leisurely. The beauties who served Prince Heng roasted the meat, cut it into small pieces, and gently brought it to his mouth.

King Heng was in a good mood, chewing a piece of barbecue. Suddenly, his nose moved slightly, and he smelled a strong aroma of barbecue. It was more fragrant than ordinary barbecue, and the aroma was like a hook, silently seducing everyone present.

The source of the delicious barbecue aroma is the grill in front of King Yan.

"Weiwei, the barbecue smells so good." King Yan was attracted by Shen Wei's barbecue. After eating all the delicacies in the world, King Yan had never smelled such an outstanding barbecue aroma.

The charcoal fire is burning, and a deer leg is roasted on the wooden grill. The oil inside is roasted out and mixed with the marinated seasonings on the outside, making a sizzling sound and emitting a strong aroma.

The skin of the venison leg has been roasted to a crispy golden color.

"This is the barbecue recipe from my hometown. Your Majesty, please try it." Shen Wei cut a few slices of venison leg meat, sprinkled them with cooked sesame seeds, and handed them to Prince Yan with a smile.

This time when she went out, she brought her secret barbecue marinade and a bottle of honey to enhance the flavor and color.

Honey is the soul, and the roasted meat naturally tastes amazing.

King Yan couldn't wait to take a bite. After being roasted over charcoal fire, the venison was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, fresh and juicy.

good to eat!

Extremely delicious!

"Your Highness, if you wrap the barbecue with green leaves, it will taste better." Shen Wei wrapped the barbecue with a piece of washed lettuce leaf and handed it to Prince Yan.

The lettuce is crisp and delicious, which can effectively cut through the greasiness of the grilled meat.

The King of Yan enjoyed the food so much that he couldn't stop eating it.

The barbecue smelled so good that you could tell how delicious it was just by smelling it. The ordinary officials present naturally didn't have the courage to order the King of Yan's barbecue and could only watch.

Princess Zhaoyang had just had a quarrel with Yan Yunting and was still sad. When she smelled the delicious barbecue, Zhaoyang was so greedy that she swallowed her saliva and immediately sent a maid to find Shen Wei and asked for a plate of barbecue.

Cailian took action and cut a plate of barbecue and sent it to Princess Zhaoyang.

The Crown Prince, who was sitting at the main seat, could not help but coughed slightly to remind King Yan: "Yuan Jing, I think this barbecue is quite good."

King Yan shook his head and said seriously, "Brother, the imperial physician said that your illness has not yet fully recovered. You need to eat a light diet with less greasy food."

Prince: ...

But he really wanted to have a bite!

Prince Yan and Zhaoyang were enjoying the food, and Prince Heng, who was not far away, suddenly felt that the barbecue beside him was no longer fragrant...

But King Heng was thick-skinned after all, and he sent someone to ask for a bowl of barbecue. King Yan naturally would not give it to him, so the person who asked for barbecue went back in disgrace.

King Heng curled his lips and said sourly: "It's just ordinary barbecue. I don't need it."

Having said that, the aroma of the barbecue is so pervasive that it makes one's mouth water.

Prince Heng couldn't help but sigh, where did the second brother find the concubine? She can also barbecue!

Shen Wei glanced across the scene inconspicuously and saw the greedy looks of the ministers.

Shen Wei, the little genius in making money, began to consider opening another barbecue restaurant in Yanjing?

...

After eating and drinking, the King of Yan went to the prince's tent to discuss official business. Shen Wei took Cai Lian for a walk by the stream to digest the food, and after practicing a section of Ba Duan Jin, they returned to the tent.

After returning to the tent, King Juan naturally did not rest immediately, and Shen Wei continued to practice calligraphy. When King Yan came back, he would be able to see her practicing calligraphy seriously.

King Yan will definitely be very satisfied.

Because Prince Yan still believes that Shen Wei is practicing calligraphy for him.

Under the candlelight, Shen Wei sat at the desk and practiced calligraphy seriously. She even changed her hairstyle, taking off her red hairpin and letting her black hair fall softly on her shoulders. The shelf lamp was placed on her right hand side, and the soft light could perfectly outline the curve of her beautiful profile.

Every frame is carefully designed.

Always let King Yan see her most beautiful side and make him fall in love with her.

"Wow--"

The curtain of the tent was lifted, and Prince Yan returned in the moonlight, and what he saw was the beautiful scene of Shen Wei practicing calligraphy.

The candlelight was bright, and the lady was writing under the lamp with a focused look. Her long, silky hair was scattered on her shoulders, and she was wearing a light silver nightgown, looking so beautiful that it was like a dream.

Hearing the noise, Shen Wei looked up in surprise, her bright eyes filled with joy: "My Lord, you are back."

Her voice was soft and delicate, and her face, as white as mutton-fat jade, showed joy.

Prince Yan walked to the desk and picked up a piece of rice paper to examine it. Although Shen Wei's handwriting was still ugly, her progress was very rapid, which showed that she had not neglected her studies.

"Very good." King Yan was very satisfied.

Shen Wei was a little proud: "If I practice for another three to five years, I will definitely become a master of calligraphy."

Prince Yan couldn't help laughing. He held Shen Wei's hand and practiced calligraphy with her stroke by stroke.

Shen Wei seized the opportunity and mentioned her younger brother unintentionally: "Your Majesty, my younger brother is also good at calligraphy, but his handwriting is neat and tidy, not as sharp and vigorous as yours."

In Shen Wei's plan, her adopted brother Shen Xiuming will become the right-hand man of King Yan in the future.

So Shen Wei would occasionally mention it in front of King Yan, which was considered a foreshadowing.

"How old is Weiwei's brother?" King Yan asked casually.

Shen Wei smiled and said, "I'm already eighteen years old and I'm still studying in the Confucian Temple. I made boots for the prince a while ago, and I used the leftover scraps to make a pair of boots for my brother."

Prince Yan chuckled and tickled Shen Wei's nose: "How can you use leftovers to make boots? He's your own brother."

There was a hint of rebuke in his voice, but more of it was joy.

Shen Wei snorted softly: "My brother is thick-skinned and tough, and it's already a compliment to him to be able to wear new boots."

Shen Wei understands King Yan.

The Prince of Yan is a man with a strong "possessiveness". He hopes that his wives and concubines will revolve around him and that he is the first in their hearts. But the princess revolves around her son all day long, Liu Ruyan longs for a lifetime of one person, Zhang Miaoyu is greedy, and Liu Qiaoer is a salted fish...

Since his wives and concubines were not to his liking, the King of Yan naturally distanced himself from these women.

Shen Wei was different, she seemed to always put King Yan first. King Yan could feel the strong love around her.

Even Shen Wei's own brother had to stand aside, and only scraps were used to make boots. This indirectly shows her care for King Yan.

After practicing calligraphy and taking a nap, it was already dawn when I opened my eyes. There was also a hunting activity today, and Princess Zhaoyang and several female relatives dressed in riding clothes also joined the hunting team.

The prince was busy with his work, and Shen Wei was busy with her own work.

Shen Wei was doing aerobics and Ba Duan Jin in the tent, thinking about the plan to create "Weixue Ice City".

As the sun approached noon, shocking news suddenly came from the imperial guards outside the tent.

King Yan is missing!
