Suddenly, a hand appeared and took the book away from him. Zhou Boli said calmly, "Father, what are you going to do?"
The King of Nanyue glared at him and said, "Give it to me!" He was in high spirits but was suddenly interrupted, just like he was changing clothes and had to go out to meet someone - he had no choice but to cut it off.
Zhou Boli stared at him, "Father, is your uncle's disappearance related to you?"
The King of Nanyue fumed and glared, his son was too smart and annoying. "If I say yes, what will you do?"
Zhou Boli placed the pamphlet on the desk, his expression bleak. "This is probably why Mother has been separated from you all this time." How incredibly intelligent must Diao have been, that the palace searched for my uncle for years without finding even a single clue? My mother had long understood the anomaly of this matter, and she had harbored a grudge against my father ever since my uncle's disappearance.
Well, so he doesn't have any brothers or sisters.
Zhou Boli continued to criticize her, "You gave birth to Liu and Zhou Zhongyi in a fit of rage. Judging from Zhou Zhongyi's behavior, children born when you are angry are not very smart." Remember this.
Manager Liao: “——”
The King of Nanyue was so angry that he jumped up and down, "Rebellious son, rebellious son! Say it again if you dare! Old Liao, bring out the family rules!"
Steward Liao brought the teacup with a smile and said, "Your Highness, please calm down. The wedding day is getting closer and closer, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is now the most important person in the mansion." Seeing that the old master was getting even angrier, he hurriedly whispered a few words.
The King of Nanyue's expression instantly eased, and he even looked a little pleased. "Not bad, not bad." For the sake of the princess, he spared the boy today. It didn't matter if his son was injured, but he couldn't delay him from having his grandson.
Lu Yun also did not forget to send a Luzon specialty to her future brother-in-law Zhou Zhongyi - two basketball-sized durian fruits.
The fruit on the table gave off a strange fragrance. Through the cracks on its top, the yellow flesh inside could be clearly seen. Zhou Zhongyi touched it and looked at the servant Dazhi hiding outside the door with an awkward expression. "How does the princess say to eat it?"
Dazhi repeated exactly what Miss Caihe had said.
Zhou Zhongyi pulled out his dagger, eager to try. He stabbed it into the shell, prying it open along the seam. A chamber of golden, plump flesh emerged. The subtle fragrance was overwhelming, and Zhou Zhongyi's mouth watered. He picked up a piece with the dagger and put it in his mouth. It was soft, sticky, and sweet.
Dazhi pinched his nose and walked away again, his face as bitter as a melon. "Sir, is it really delicious?"
Zhou Zhongyi ate with an intoxicated look on his face. "It seems that only your master has this blessing."
Dazhi, Master, I vomit——
For the next two days, all the servants in the mansion kept their distance from the second young master's Jun Zixuan.
Another place people were eager to avoid was the kitchen in the courtyard next to the palace. The chilies from Luzon were incredibly spicy, and Lu Yun experimented many times before finally mastering the proper dosage. While recalling the recipes, she wrote down the specific recipes for the spicy chicken and Maoxuewang (Chinese mao xu wang) on paper. Since the cook couldn't read, she had to instruct them herself.
The spicy chicken was cooked in one go, but the Maoxuewang was a bit lacking. The main problem was that I didn't have hotpot base, so I had to add more doubanjiang, Sichuan peppercorns, and various spices. The first time I made it, it was too spicy and not fragrant enough.
Lu Yun had no choice but to send someone to buy beef and make oil, starting with the hot pot base. After trying three or four times, she finally got a piece of beef hot pot base with spicy flavor.
With the hot pot base, we were able to make it in one go. The spicy and mellow aroma filled our nostrils, making everyone present salivate.
He packed part of it on a plate and took it back to the palace, while the rest was handed over to Dashou.
Lu Yun propped her chin with one hand and gestured with a smile. "Zhou Boli, try the new dish I created."
Looking at the two plates of bright red food on the table, the aroma overwhelming his nose, he resisted the urge to sneeze. Zhou Boli hesitantly picked up his chopsticks, wisely avoiding the red, unidentified object that looked "dangerous," and took a bite. The aroma instantly filled his mouth, followed by the spicy taste that made him want to drink water and even more unable to stop.
The man's cheeks flushed from the spiciness, and his thin lips were plump and rosy from the congestion. Lu Yun's eyes wandered, and she remembered an idiom - vivid and fragrant.
I couldn't tell which one was more tempting, the person or the food.
Perhaps due to the spiciness, Zhou Boli's mind was in a state of confusion, and a hint of bewilderment appeared in his watery eyes. Coupled with his blue-gray eyes and rosy face, Lu Yun felt her heart tremble and lose its normal rhythm.
Lu Yun's eyes are sparkling, and she supports her face with her hands. Oh my god, this hot man is so handsome and sexy!
Zhou Boli put down his chopsticks and gulped down a pot of water, waving his hand and saying, "Ayun, it tastes good, but it's too spicy." After that, he let out a long sigh.
Lu Yun smiled and nodded, "Okay." You are handsome, so whatever you say is right, hehe.
Her smile was bright, sweet, and a little cunning. Zhou Boli's eyes moved slightly and he stretched out a hand to gently pinch her cheek, which was soft and tender.
There were other people in the room. Lu Yun blushed and pulled his hand away, whispering a threat, "Don't touch me now, or I'll bring up the old scores with you."
Zhou Boli withdrew his hand with regret, resting his palm on his knee, his eyes full of sincerity. "Ayun, I was wrong."
Stealing rice seeds and potatoes, planting spies everywhere in the village, knowing the layout of the village clearly and so on - cough cough cough.
The next evening, Lu Yun dragged Zhou Boli along to the bonfire party in the fishing village. Zhou Boli handled the situation much more easily than she did, and Lu Yun was happy to have some free time. She and Dashou ate barbecued meat by the nearby small fire, drizzled with a secret chili sauce that was mouth-watering.
Huihui was having fun on the beach.
Lu Yun sat upright. She thought she'd just heard the subtle clacking of shoes on the grass, and she signaled the others to hold their breath. Listening, Lu Yun stood up, scanning the area as if nothing had happened. She casually picked up a torch and pretended to search for Huihui. She led Dashou off into the distance, signaling her to stay put. Hong Fei, sensing something was amiss, guarded her master with a vigilant expression.
Lu Yun gave her a barely perceptible nod and walked towards Zhou Boli. As the heir apparent of the Nanyue Palace, Zhou Boli was always secretly guarded. She needed to take him away from the crowd to avoid harming any innocent people.
"Your Highness." Lu Yun held up the torch. "I remembered something important. Could you please come with me?"
Zhou Boli put down the wine glass in his hand, stood up, and walked towards Lu Yun step by step.
Lu Yun turned to stand to his right, then suddenly threw the torch into the bushes on the far shore. A dozen men in black, armed with blades, appeared, and seeing that their tracks had been exposed, they quickly retreated.
Fortunately, no strong liquor was used today, and the banquet had just started when Lu Jian was conscious and led his brothers to protect His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
The enemy's figure quickly disappeared into the dark night.
"The thief wanted to take advantage of my drunkenness to attack me, but he didn't expect to be discovered in advance by the princess." Lu Jian was a little scared. If the prince was injured under his nose, he would have to be a soldier for the rest of his life.
Lu Jian wanted to lead people to chase after them, but was stopped by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
"No need. The thief failed, but there will be another chance."
