The Emperor's Favorite Imperial Concubine is an O
Chapter 35 Birthday
Wen Mingyu and Huo Hongyu became acquainted, and after becoming friends, they talked more unconsciously, and they naturally talked about their own affairs.
Because they don't participate in official battles and have a simple family style, Duke Anning's life is much more casual than other princes and nobles. In some respects, it is even like ordinary people, without so many rules.For example, when Huo Hongyu got into trouble because of his skin, Mr. An Ning chased him and beat him with a stick. In the upper class circles, this would be unthinkable. Don't you want to lose face?
Wen Mingyu was amused to hear him tell many interesting things about the family.Duke An Ning and his wife didn't know that their image was completely ruined by their son.
Huo Hongyu also complained that his family held a birthday party, and his parents gave him disgusting pens, inks, papers and inkstones, but he is just a scumbag, and he gets a headache when he reads, why torture him!
"By the way, when is your birthday? Go out and have fun together."
Wen Mingyu was stunned for a moment, he really didn't know.He didn't know the original owner's birthday. He was an orphan and was abandoned in an orphanage, so he didn't know the exact date.The dean took the day of his arrival as his birthday.
In fact, Wen Mingyu seldom celebrates his birthday. He thinks that day is the same as every other day, there is no difference, and it is not important.
Before he said anything, Huo Hongyu thought of it first, "The Holy Majesty will definitely hold a birthday party for you in the palace, how could it be possible to go out, I am stupid. Remember to invite me when the time comes, I will definitely prepare a surprise gift for you, Make sure you can't guess anything."
Seeing that he insisted on asking for an answer, Wen Mingyu said, "It's not my birthday, so you don't need to give gifts, and the Holy Majesty didn't say that there will be a birthday party."
Huo Hongyu didn't quite believe it.Putting his age in the future, he is indeed just a junior high school student, but in ancient times, it was time to get married in a few years, and it was not like he knew nothing.
After getting along during this period of time, he can see that Mu Zhan's pampering and doting on Wen Mingyu is obviously very unusual.He was sure that the Holy Majesty liked Wen Mingyu, but he didn't know how deep this feeling was.
Huo Hongyu said seriously: "Don't say anything else, the Holy Majesty is really good to you, so good that it is unbelievable. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would definitely think that someone else is talking nonsense. The Holy Majesty didn't say it, is it because you don't want to talk about it?" You know? Birthday is so important, you must have a good time, if you tell him, it will be different. I feel that no matter what you say, he will agree to you. "
After hearing this, Wen Mingyu retorted subconsciously, "How is that possible?"
Do you really think of him as some kind of evil concubine?
Huo Hongyu didn't mean to be joking at all, and couldn't help but whispered: "I think, in the eyes of the Holy One, there are only two kinds of people, one is you, and the others are monkeys. Oh no, then we can't be regarded as people."
Wen Mingyu was amused.
There is another point that Huo Hongyu didn't say, it's very strange that the Holy Majesty didn't give Wen Mingyu the title of concubine.Because the Holy Majesty and Mr. Wen always stayed together, he subconsciously thought that he was a favorite concubine, but when he heard Mr. Wen called Mr. Wen, he suddenly realized that he had no status.
Huo Hongyu didn't feel that the Holy Majesty didn't value Wen Mingyu because of this, on the contrary, he felt that the Holy Majesty valued people too much, so he felt that this position was not enough, and he felt that something big had to be done.
In the end, under Huo Hongyu's perseverance, Wen Mingyu announced her birthday.
"Isn't that coming soon?!" Huo Hongyu's eyes widened, and he realized that he didn't even have time to prepare gifts. This was still in the hunting ground, so he could only find something to give from the things he brought.How can this work?Too casual and careless!
He added: "It doesn't matter if I can come or not, but there must be a birthday party here."
His tone was extremely firm, as if he could predict the future.
Wen Mingyu laughed.
"If not, I'll make a small one for you, and I'll go back and tell my parents!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the person ran away in a hurry, even Wen Mingyu couldn't stop him.
the other side.
Mu Zhan was dealing with political affairs, and when he was taking a break, he stopped, and Zhao Dequan at the side immediately brought tea and snacks that were just warm enough to drink.
When Mu Zhan saw the exquisite pastries, he couldn't help but flashed in his mind the image of Wen Mingyu holding the peach blossom cakes, with bright eyes, eating happily.
He also picked up a piece, put it in his mouth, and chewed slowly.
Very sweet.
Zhao Dequan saw that the Holy Majesty was in a good mood, pondered the holy intention, said some flattering words along the way, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, I remember, Mr. Wen likes peach blossom cakes very much."
Mu Zhan responded lightly.
Zhao Dequan said again: "Your Majesty really dotes on Mr. Wen. The fish that was so expensive yesterday was just because Mr. Wen wanted to eat it, so His Majesty ordered someone to cook it. Mr. Wen ate it with great joy. Such a holy favor is really Mr. Wen blessing."
Yesterday, the Imperial Dining Room used fat and tender carp to cook several delicious dishes, such as sweet and sour pork tenderloin, braised carp in brown sauce, and milky white and sweet fish soup.
There are a lot of fish bones, but I have to say, the taste is excellent.
When the palace servants served Mu Zhan and Wen Mingyu's meal, they could not help but slurp their mouths when they smelled the rich and alluring fragrance, and the gluttons in their stomachs were hooked out.
Afterwards, the two masters ate it, and Zhao Dequan, as the chief steward with the highest status among the servants, tasted it first, put it into his mouth with a chopstick, it was so delicious that he even swallowed his tongue.He followed the emperor and was lucky enough to eat the imperial meal that the Holy Majesty had eaten, which is considered to be a lot of experience, but it was the first time he had eaten such delicious fish, no wonder it was so precious.This bite is how much gold has been eaten.
Before, because of Chi Bibai's bold and vicious words, Zhao Dequan was worried that something would happen to Mr. Wen, but when he saw the relationship between His Majesty and Mr. Wen yesterday, he immediately felt that he was just worrying.I really want to vent my anger, but why would I eat such an expensive fish just because I want to eat it?
When eating fish, Mu Zhan ate very little, almost watching Wen Mingyu eat it.Wen Mingyu ate attentively, but it wasn't ugly, but she had a kind of free and easy wantonness, and her every move was very willful, which made people feel that the meal was very delicious and had an appetite.
Moreover, the relaxed and casual eating posture is not at all like sitting in front of a tyrant, but beside someone close to him, without any scruples, and his posture is unrestrained and relaxed.
As Mu Zhan watched, his mood improved unconsciously.
Wen Mingyu was halfway through eating, and found that Mu Zhan didn't eat much, so he asked suspiciously: "Does Your Majesty not like to eat fish? No, I have seen His Majesty eat it before. This fish is very delicious~"
He reached out and picked up a large piece of fish, which was still very tender, and was about to put it into Mu Zhan's bowl.But when he was about to let it go, his hand suddenly turned in mid-air again, pinched it back to his side, and put it in a clean empty porcelain plate in front of him.
Seeing this scene, Zhao Dequan was a little shocked and dumbfounded. Is Mr. Wen playing tricks on the Holy One?So bold!
Mu Zhan didn't react too much, raised his eyebrows, and continued to look at him.
Wen Mingyu paused for a moment, and seemed to realize that her actions could easily be misunderstood, so she said, "Your Majesty, wait a moment, there are a lot of fishbone."
As he said that, he lowered his head and carefully picked out the fishbone bit by bit with chopsticks. At the same time, he paid great attention to keeping the integrity of the fish meat. After picking everything up, he picked up the fish meat and put it in Mu Zhan's bowl, his eyes squinted. Sweetly said with a smile: "In this way, Your Majesty can eat it directly without worrying about fishbone. Try it quickly, it tastes very good~"
His eyes are round and bright, moist, like some kind of small animal, when he looks at you eagerly like this, no one can refuse.
Under his expectant eyes, Mu Zhan ate the fish, nodded and praised in a rare way: "It's delicious."
Zhao Dequan noticed the slight curvature of the corner of Mu Zhan's mouth, and thought that he had picked fish bones for the Holy One before, and his reaction was completely different.Immediately afterwards, he saw something even more different. His Majesty also picked up a piece of fish meat, picked out the thorns, and put it in Mr. Wen's bowl.
Zhao Dequan didn't know why, but suddenly wanted to cover his heart, feeling that he was utterly dead.
Wen Mingyu was stunned for a moment when he saw the extra fish in the bowl, and then he smiled brightly, "Thank you, Your Majesty~"
He also thought about the picture of his family picking up vegetables and fish bones for him before, but he didn't expect to travel here, and the tyrant helped him realize it, giving him this simple warmth.
His eyes were slightly sore, he quickly lowered his head and pretended to be serious about eating, and stuffed the fish into his mouth.
Maybe a little hypocritical, but he really wanted to cry.
Why isn't Mu Zhan his father?
Dad's age is not suitable, it's good to be an older brother, woo woo woo...
If Mu Zhan could hear what he was saying, he probably wouldn't be able to laugh, and would force himself on the spot, accidentally breaking the chopsticks in his hand.
Because she was thinking about something, Wen Mingyu wasn't careful enough to eat fish later, and suddenly felt a pain in her mouth, being poked by a fishbone.
He frowned unconsciously and let out a pained cry.
Mu Zhan leaned over almost instantly, and asked calmly, "What's wrong?"
So embarrassing.Just now, he gave Mu Zhan a fishbone, saying that he didn't have to worry about being stabbed, but he got caught so quickly.Wen Mingyu felt ashamed, covered her mouth and said nothing.
Mu Zhan: "Is there a fishbone in your mouth?"
Wen Mingyu was so embarrassed that he wanted to die, but he knew that if he didn't answer, Mu Zhan would definitely not give up, so he nodded with tears in his eyes.
Mu Zhan frowned, grabbed his wrist, "Take it away."
Wen Mingyu let go as he said, thinking that he was going to use some method to make him swallow the fishbone, but unexpectedly, Mu Zhan directly pinched his chin and ordered: "Open your mouth and look alone."
This, this is unnecessary, right?
When Mu Zhan looked over, Wen Mingyu could only grunt and opened his mouth reluctantly, always feeling very weird in his heart.
Mu Zhan's handsome face is close at hand, even the eyelashes are distinct, you can see clearly, the stern outline, the straight nose bridge, the light-colored thin lips, he even kissed him before...
The more she thought about it, the more uncomfortable Wen Mingyu became, her whole body was like a blown hairball, her back arched vigilantly, her teeth bared and her teeth screaming fiercely, trying to jump away and run away.
He could even feel Mu Zhan's warm breath caressing his face, causing an unbearable itch, which made him want to turn his head away, but his chin was held by Mu Zhan and he couldn't move.Not only that, after he opened his mouth, Mu Zhan put his finger inside to help him take out the fishbone.
Because the gills near the throat were pierced, Mu Zhan had to go deeper.Wen Mingyu's eyes widened involuntarily, shocked, and tensed up involuntarily, trying to refuse, but her tongue accidentally touched Mu Zhan's fingers, and she immediately retracted in shock.
It took only a short time to take out the fishbone, but Wen Mingyu felt it was extremely long, as if every second seemed like years, and every bit of senses seemed to be infinitely magnified.
He fell into a situation where he couldn't advance or retreat, and he couldn't do anything right. He wanted to close his mouth, but his lips touched Mu Zhan's fingers, as if he was pecking lightly. place.
The long eyelashes trembled helplessly, and could only make a vague whimper, hoping that the suffering would end soon.
Finally, Mu Zhan said, "Okay."
Mu Zhan held the fishbone between his fingers and took it out.
Wen Mingyu also felt no pain, closed her mouth, and pursed her lips subconsciously.As soon as he lowered his head, he could see Mu Zhan's wet fingertips.Wen Mingyu's ears were hot, so he quickly wiped his fingers with a handkerchief.
Mu Zhan didn't stop him, just looked at it like this, and touched the corner of Wen Mingyu's red eyes with his other hand, and said, "Crying in pain?"
Wen Mingyu froze for a moment, then shook her head, "...No."
But just after he finished speaking, he remembered that he wanted to cry because of Mu Zhan's actions, and it was normal for his eyes to be red.It's even more embarrassing now.
Fortunately, after he denied it, Mu Zhan didn't ask, but let him continue eating.
However, Mu Zhan took the fish meat to him, picked out the fish bones before giving it to Wen Mingyu.Wen Mingyu was surprised: "No, Your Majesty, I can..."
Mu Zhan raised his eyebrows, "And then got stabbed again?"
Wen Mingyu was so stared at by him that she closed her mouth, lowered her head and ate obediently, and whispered: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Zhao Dequan, who watched the whole process from the side: "..."
He felt really redundant.In fact, it is entirely possible for him or other palace officials to pick fish bones, which is what they should do.But how could Zhao Dequan be so ignorant, he stood quietly in the corner the whole time, trying to reduce his sense of existence, and competently acted as the background board.
Back to the present.
Zhao Dequan's words made Mu Zhan think about it silently, and found that he really made an exception many times because of Wen Mingyu, and did many things that he would never do before, and he seemed to be becoming less and less like himself.There is no bottom line like this, pampering people to lawlessness, how is it like a tyrant.
Mu Zhan suddenly said in a deep voice: "Gu really let him go too much, he shouldn't be allowed to go on like this, there are no rules."
When Zhao Dequan heard this, he had question marks all over his head.
rule?What rules?In the palace, the Holy Majesty is the rule, and nothing the Holy Majesty says can be discussed.Don't you think it's a bit strange to say this now, contradicting yourself?
Of course, Zhao Dequan thought about these words in his heart, and he never dared to say them.
Not long after, Wen Mingyu came to drink afternoon tea with Mu Zhan.This is also a custom.When Mu Zhan was working, he would often ask Wen Mingyu to stay by his side, even if they were doing their own things.
Mu Zhan pushed the pastry over, and Wen Mingyu naturally picked up a piece and ate it. The scene coincided with what Mu Zhan thought just now.
After chatting for a few words, Wen Mingyu took a sip of tea, and his eyes drifted to Mu Zhan again.
Huo Hongyu said that Mu Zhan treated him very well, and he could do everything up to him. If he asked, Mu Zhan would definitely agree.
This is an exaggeration, but after serious recollection, I have to say that Mu Zhan was really kind to him, which can be called pampering.
Of course, Wen Mingyu didn't feel that Mu Zhan would agree to whatever he said.It's just that Mu Zhan is much more tolerant of him than others.
Wen Mingyu hesitated for a while, and couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty, I just chatted with Huo Hongyu."
Mu Zhan looked cold and showed no interest.
Wen Mingyu said again: "We talked until the birthday."
Mu Zhan continued to have a cold face, and when he heard "we", his temperature became even colder.
"Does Your Majesty know when my birthday is?"
Mu Zhan is a person who doesn't care about his birthday, and he didn't react sharply just now, so he will understand.
"When?"
Wen Mingyu smiled and said, "It's the day after tomorrow."
Mu Zhan was a little surprised, he didn't expect it to be so close.
Wen Mingyu rested her chin on both hands, and a small flower bloomed, tilted her head, and smiled obediently: "May I ask Your Majesty for a birthday present?"
Without hesitation, Mu Zhan nodded and said, "What do you want?"
Wen Mingyu paused for a moment, seemed a little embarrassed to speak, pursed her lips, and didn't say anything for a while.
Mu Zhan: "Say, it's just a gift, and I can afford it alone."
"This gift, I'm a bit pushy. Your Majesty is very busy, so let's forget it..." Wen Mingyu hesitated, and finally said slowly under Mu Zhan's gaze, "I want to eat it with your majesty's own hand." made noodles."
"Noodles?" Mu Zhan never expected such a gift.
Wen Mingyu waved her hand, and quickly said: "I just thought of it suddenly, I don't really want it, I like whatever His Majesty gives you, and His Majesty usually treats me well enough."
Mu Zhan ignored his words and asked Zhao Dequan, "The birthday noodles are longevity noodles, right?"
Zhao Dequan answered respectfully with his head bowed, but his heart was full of turmoil. Does His Majesty mean to agree?
If he has no amnesia, just now the Holy Majesty said that he can no longer let Young Master Wen go, if he wants to understand the rules, why did he agree to what Young Master said in the blink of an eye?Or cook the noodles yourself!Majesty, do you hurt yourself by slapping yourself?
Mu Zhan ignored Zhao Dequan and said to Wen Mingyu, "Gu can make longevity noodles for you."
The tone was very flat, as if it was just a trivial matter that he didn't care much about.
Wen Mingyu was stunned, he just wanted to test it out, and never thought that Mu Zhan would really agree.Now is someone going to make him a birthday present himself?According to legend, the longevity noodles that everyone eats on their birthdays? !
Wen Mingyu finally came back to his senses, with a look of surprise on his face, he rushed towards Mu Zhan without thinking, and hugged him like a bear.
"Your Majesty is so kind! I like Your Majesty's so much!"
Once emotional, there is no scruple to speak.
Zhao Dequan's heart skipped a beat when he heard it, and he raised his eyes to take a peek, his heart couldn't help but sweeten.Although it's not polite, who can refuse such a sweet beauty?
Mu Zhan didn't seem to expect that he would say that, he was stunned for a moment, and then smiled.It's just that the smiles of ordinary people are usually bright, sunny, and full of joy, but Mu Zhan's smile is different, shrouded in a layer of darkness, like a beast breaking through a cage, grabbing the beam of sunshine, and holding on tight In the arms, crazy and gloomy.
This is what you said, you like me very much, if one day it changes...
***
Mu Zhan is a prince with a noble status. Logically speaking, he should have never cooked before, but he was not favored. When he was young, he took the initiative to invite Ying to fight. He ate and lived with a group of soldiers on the front line.In the face of life and death, the boundaries between superiority and inferiority have long been blurred.It was also at that time that he learned to cook some simple food.
He went to the imperial dining room, and there was the imperial kitchen teacher next to him, so it was not difficult to prepare a bowl of longevity noodles.
On the contrary, the imperial cook looked terrified, fearing that the holy majesty would be injured in the process of cooking, and his head would be lost.But what shocked him was that there was a trace of proficiency in the movements of the Holy One. After a few words of careful guidance from him, he quickly got started, and the finished product was unexpectedly good.
The Holy Majesty is not only good at governing the country, he can also cook food, so what's the use of him as a cook!Yu Chu suffered quite a blow in his heart.
Of course Mu Zhan didn't care about the fluctuation in Yu Chu's heart.
While he was cooking noodles, a small head peeked out from the door of the imperial dining room, with his hands on the door, revealing a pair of round eyes, and the dog sneaked a sneaky look.
Wen Mingyu was very concerned and couldn't sit still, so she ran over.
He wasn't worried that Mu Zhan's cooking would not taste good. No matter how the first bowl of longevity noodles in his life was made, he would eat it seriously.
He was just worried that something might go wrong if Mu Zhan had never cooked before.At the same time, I also really want to see what Mu Zhan looks like when he cooks the noodles. It was a birthday present for him.
Wen Mingyu originally wanted to take a sneak peek at Mimi, but he didn't expect that Mu Zhan was so keen, he just took a peek with his probe and noticed it.
Mu Zhan glanced over, met his gaze, and said, "Come in."
Wen Mingyu pawed at the door subconsciously with her fingers, dawdled for a while as if embarrassed, and passed obediently.
Walking to a place very close to Mu Zhan, he stopped and watched curiously and seriously.
The imperial chef couldn't help but peeked at this man several times. He had heard a lot of rumors, but this was the first time seeing him in real life.Before, he still found it hard to understand, how could His Majesty fall in love with a man and still dote on him so much, but when he really saw him, he immediately understood.
Beauty, regardless of gender, is really beautiful to a certain level, and anyone who sees it can't help but feel good about it.
No wonder His Majesty is willing to cook himself.
Yu Chu felt that he had witnessed a story comparable to a storybook.
It takes a certain amount of time to cook the longevity noodles, but both Mu Zhan and Wen Mingyu are very patient, staring at the pot intently, and the appearance makes the imperial chef uncontrollable and nervous.This bowl of noodles must be a success!
Finally, the longevity noodles are out of the pot.
Steaming hot and misty, bright red beef is neatly placed on the noodles, with emerald green vegetables next to it, the soup is rich and fragrant.
Wen Mingyu sat down, picked up the chopsticks to eat, the noodles absorbed the beef broth, the taste was delicious and chewy, very delicious, not worse than Yuchu's, even much more delicious.
Wen Mingyu ate with his head down, and Mu Zhan sat aside and ate a couple of mouthfuls, but most of them were looking at him.
The hot noodles were eaten into the stomach, it was very warm, and there was an indescribable feeling, which rose from the heart and quickly filled the entire chest cavity.
Wen Mingyu couldn't help thinking.
he looks like……
A little bit reluctant to leave.
The author has something to say: Tyrant: Gu will not indulge him like this again.
Yuzai: I really want to eat longevity noodles OvO
Tyrant: Okay, I'll cook for you.
What a domineering and brutal tyrant~~
PS: I'm about to fall off the horse~
Because they don't participate in official battles and have a simple family style, Duke Anning's life is much more casual than other princes and nobles. In some respects, it is even like ordinary people, without so many rules.For example, when Huo Hongyu got into trouble because of his skin, Mr. An Ning chased him and beat him with a stick.

"By the way, when is your birthday? Go out and have fun together."
Wen Mingyu was stunned for a moment, he really didn't know.He didn't know the original owner's birthday. He was an orphan and was abandoned in an orphanage, so he didn't know the exact date.The dean took the day of his arrival as his birthday.

"Isn't that coming soon?!" Huo Hongyu's eyes widened, and he realized that he didn't even have time to prepare gifts. This was still in the hunting ground, so he could only find something to give from the things he brought.How can this work?Too casual and careless!

As soon as he finished speaking, the person ran away in a hurry, even Wen Mingyu couldn't stop him.

Mu Zhan was dealing with political affairs, and when he was taking a break, he stopped, and Zhao Dequan at the side immediately brought tea and snacks that were just warm enough to drink.

He also picked up a piece, put it in his mouth, and chewed slowly.

Why isn't Mu Zhan his father?
Dad's age is not suitable, it's good to be an older brother, woo woo woo...
If Mu Zhan could hear what he was saying, he probably wouldn't be able to laugh, and would force himself on the spot, accidentally breaking the chopsticks in his hand.
Because she was thinking about something, Wen Mingyu wasn't careful enough to eat fish later, and suddenly felt a pain in her mouth, being poked by a fishbone.
He frowned unconsciously and let out a pained cry.
Mu Zhan leaned over almost instantly, and asked calmly, "What's wrong?"
So embarrassing.Just now, he gave Mu Zhan a fishbone, saying that he didn't have to worry about being stabbed, but he got caught so quickly.Wen Mingyu felt ashamed, covered her mouth and said nothing.
Mu Zhan: "Is there a fishbone in your mouth?"
Wen Mingyu was so embarrassed that he wanted to die, but he knew that if he didn't answer, Mu Zhan would definitely not give up, so he nodded with tears in his eyes.
Mu Zhan frowned, grabbed his wrist, "Take it away."
Wen Mingyu let go as he said, thinking that he was going to use some method to make him swallow the fishbone, but unexpectedly, Mu Zhan directly pinched his chin and ordered: "Open your mouth and look alone."
This, this is unnecessary, right?
When Mu Zhan looked over, Wen Mingyu could only grunt and opened his mouth reluctantly, always feeling very weird in his heart.
Mu Zhan's handsome face is close at hand, even the eyelashes are distinct, you can see clearly, the stern outline, the straight nose bridge, the light-colored thin lips, he even kissed him before...
The more she thought about it, the more uncomfortable Wen Mingyu became, her whole body was like a blown hairball, her back arched vigilantly, her teeth bared and her teeth screaming fiercely, trying to jump away and run away.
He could even feel Mu Zhan's warm breath caressing his face, causing an unbearable itch, which made him want to turn his head away, but his chin was held by Mu Zhan and he couldn't move.Not only that, after he opened his mouth, Mu Zhan put his finger inside to help him take out the fishbone.
Because the gills near the throat were pierced, Mu Zhan had to go deeper.Wen Mingyu's eyes widened involuntarily, shocked, and tensed up involuntarily, trying to refuse, but her tongue accidentally touched Mu Zhan's fingers, and she immediately retracted in shock.
It took only a short time to take out the fishbone, but Wen Mingyu felt it was extremely long, as if every second seemed like years, and every bit of senses seemed to be infinitely magnified.
He fell into a situation where he couldn't advance or retreat, and he couldn't do anything right. He wanted to close his mouth, but his lips touched Mu Zhan's fingers, as if he was pecking lightly. place.
The long eyelashes trembled helplessly, and could only make a vague whimper, hoping that the suffering would end soon.
Finally, Mu Zhan said, "Okay."
Mu Zhan held the fishbone between his fingers and took it out.
Wen Mingyu also felt no pain, closed her mouth, and pursed her lips subconsciously.As soon as he lowered his head, he could see Mu Zhan's wet fingertips.Wen Mingyu's ears were hot, so he quickly wiped his fingers with a handkerchief.
Mu Zhan didn't stop him, just looked at it like this, and touched the corner of Wen Mingyu's red eyes with his other hand, and said, "Crying in pain?"
Wen Mingyu froze for a moment, then shook her head, "...No."
But just after he finished speaking, he remembered that he wanted to cry because of Mu Zhan's actions, and it was normal for his eyes to be red.It's even more embarrassing now.
Fortunately, after he denied it, Mu Zhan didn't ask, but let him continue eating.
However, Mu Zhan took the fish meat to him, picked out the fish bones before giving it to Wen Mingyu.Wen Mingyu was surprised: "No, Your Majesty, I can..."
Mu Zhan raised his eyebrows, "And then got stabbed again?"
Wen Mingyu was so stared at by him that she closed her mouth, lowered her head and ate obediently, and whispered: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Zhao Dequan, who watched the whole process from the side: "..."
He felt really redundant.In fact, it is entirely possible for him or other palace officials to pick fish bones, which is what they should do.But how could Zhao Dequan be so ignorant, he stood quietly in the corner the whole time, trying to reduce his sense of existence, and competently acted as the background board.
Back to the present.
Zhao Dequan's words made Mu Zhan think about it silently, and found that he really made an exception many times because of Wen Mingyu, and did many things that he would never do before, and he seemed to be becoming less and less like himself.There is no bottom line like this, pampering people to lawlessness, how is it like a tyrant.
Mu Zhan suddenly said in a deep voice: "Gu really let him go too much, he shouldn't be allowed to go on like this, there are no rules."
When Zhao Dequan heard this, he had question marks all over his head.
rule?What rules?In the palace, the Holy Majesty is the rule, and nothing the Holy Majesty says can be discussed.Don't you think it's a bit strange to say this now, contradicting yourself?
Of course, Zhao Dequan thought about these words in his heart, and he never dared to say them.
Not long after, Wen Mingyu came to drink afternoon tea with Mu Zhan.This is also a custom.When Mu Zhan was working, he would often ask Wen Mingyu to stay by his side, even if they were doing their own things.
Mu Zhan pushed the pastry over, and Wen Mingyu naturally picked up a piece and ate it. The scene coincided with what Mu Zhan thought just now.
After chatting for a few words, Wen Mingyu took a sip of tea, and his eyes drifted to Mu Zhan again.
Huo Hongyu said that Mu Zhan treated him very well, and he could do everything up to him. If he asked, Mu Zhan would definitely agree.
This is an exaggeration, but after serious recollection, I have to say that Mu Zhan was really kind to him, which can be called pampering.
Of course, Wen Mingyu didn't feel that Mu Zhan would agree to whatever he said.It's just that Mu Zhan is much more tolerant of him than others.
Wen Mingyu hesitated for a while, and couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty, I just chatted with Huo Hongyu."
Mu Zhan looked cold and showed no interest.
Wen Mingyu said again: "We talked until the birthday."
Mu Zhan continued to have a cold face, and when he heard "we", his temperature became even colder.
"Does Your Majesty know when my birthday is?"
Mu Zhan is a person who doesn't care about his birthday, and he didn't react sharply just now, so he will understand.
"When?"
Wen Mingyu smiled and said, "It's the day after tomorrow."
Mu Zhan was a little surprised, he didn't expect it to be so close.
Wen Mingyu rested her chin on both hands, and a small flower bloomed, tilted her head, and smiled obediently: "May I ask Your Majesty for a birthday present?"
Without hesitation, Mu Zhan nodded and said, "What do you want?"
Wen Mingyu paused for a moment, seemed a little embarrassed to speak, pursed her lips, and didn't say anything for a while.
Mu Zhan: "Say, it's just a gift, and I can afford it alone."
"This gift, I'm a bit pushy. Your Majesty is very busy, so let's forget it..." Wen Mingyu hesitated, and finally said slowly under Mu Zhan's gaze, "I want to eat it with your majesty's own hand." made noodles."
"Noodles?" Mu Zhan never expected such a gift.
Wen Mingyu waved her hand, and quickly said: "I just thought of it suddenly, I don't really want it, I like whatever His Majesty gives you, and His Majesty usually treats me well enough."
Mu Zhan ignored his words and asked Zhao Dequan, "The birthday noodles are longevity noodles, right?"
Zhao Dequan answered respectfully with his head bowed, but his heart was full of turmoil. Does His Majesty mean to agree?
If he has no amnesia, just now the Holy Majesty said that he can no longer let Young Master Wen go, if he wants to understand the rules, why did he agree to what Young Master said in the blink of an eye?Or cook the noodles yourself!Majesty, do you hurt yourself by slapping yourself?
Mu Zhan ignored Zhao Dequan and said to Wen Mingyu, "Gu can make longevity noodles for you."
The tone was very flat, as if it was just a trivial matter that he didn't care much about.
Wen Mingyu was stunned, he just wanted to test it out, and never thought that Mu Zhan would really agree.Now is someone going to make him a birthday present himself?According to legend, the longevity noodles that everyone eats on their birthdays? !
Wen Mingyu finally came back to his senses, with a look of surprise on his face, he rushed towards Mu Zhan without thinking, and hugged him like a bear.
"Your Majesty is so kind! I like Your Majesty's so much!"
Once emotional, there is no scruple to speak.
Zhao Dequan's heart skipped a beat when he heard it, and he raised his eyes to take a peek, his heart couldn't help but sweeten.Although it's not polite, who can refuse such a sweet beauty?
Mu Zhan didn't seem to expect that he would say that, he was stunned for a moment, and then smiled.It's just that the smiles of ordinary people are usually bright, sunny, and full of joy, but Mu Zhan's smile is different, shrouded in a layer of darkness, like a beast breaking through a cage, grabbing the beam of sunshine, and holding on tight In the arms, crazy and gloomy.
This is what you said, you like me very much, if one day it changes...
***
Mu Zhan is a prince with a noble status. Logically speaking, he should have never cooked before, but he was not favored. When he was young, he took the initiative to invite Ying to fight. He ate and lived with a group of soldiers on the front line.In the face of life and death, the boundaries between superiority and inferiority have long been blurred.It was also at that time that he learned to cook some simple food.
He went to the imperial dining room, and there was the imperial kitchen teacher next to him, so it was not difficult to prepare a bowl of longevity noodles.
On the contrary, the imperial cook looked terrified, fearing that the holy majesty would be injured in the process of cooking, and his head would be lost.But what shocked him was that there was a trace of proficiency in the movements of the Holy One. After a few words of careful guidance from him, he quickly got started, and the finished product was unexpectedly good.
The Holy Majesty is not only good at governing the country, he can also cook food, so what's the use of him as a cook!Yu Chu suffered quite a blow in his heart.
Of course Mu Zhan didn't care about the fluctuation in Yu Chu's heart.
While he was cooking noodles, a small head peeked out from the door of the imperial dining room, with his hands on the door, revealing a pair of round eyes, and the dog sneaked a sneaky look.
Wen Mingyu was very concerned and couldn't sit still, so she ran over.
He wasn't worried that Mu Zhan's cooking would not taste good. No matter how the first bowl of longevity noodles in his life was made, he would eat it seriously.
He was just worried that something might go wrong if Mu Zhan had never cooked before.At the same time, I also really want to see what Mu Zhan looks like when he cooks the noodles. It was a birthday present for him.
Wen Mingyu originally wanted to take a sneak peek at Mimi, but he didn't expect that Mu Zhan was so keen, he just took a peek with his probe and noticed it.
Mu Zhan glanced over, met his gaze, and said, "Come in."
Wen Mingyu pawed at the door subconsciously with her fingers, dawdled for a while as if embarrassed, and passed obediently.
Walking to a place very close to Mu Zhan, he stopped and watched curiously and seriously.
The imperial chef couldn't help but peeked at this man several times. He had heard a lot of rumors, but this was the first time seeing him in real life.Before, he still found it hard to understand, how could His Majesty fall in love with a man and still dote on him so much, but when he really saw him, he immediately understood.
Beauty, regardless of gender, is really beautiful to a certain level, and anyone who sees it can't help but feel good about it.
No wonder His Majesty is willing to cook himself.
Yu Chu felt that he had witnessed a story comparable to a storybook.
It takes a certain amount of time to cook the longevity noodles, but both Mu Zhan and Wen Mingyu are very patient, staring at the pot intently, and the appearance makes the imperial chef uncontrollable and nervous.This bowl of noodles must be a success!
Finally, the longevity noodles are out of the pot.
Steaming hot and misty, bright red beef is neatly placed on the noodles, with emerald green vegetables next to it, the soup is rich and fragrant.
Wen Mingyu sat down, picked up the chopsticks to eat, the noodles absorbed the beef broth, the taste was delicious and chewy, very delicious, not worse than Yuchu's, even much more delicious.
Wen Mingyu ate with his head down, and Mu Zhan sat aside and ate a couple of mouthfuls, but most of them were looking at him.
The hot noodles were eaten into the stomach, it was very warm, and there was an indescribable feeling, which rose from the heart and quickly filled the entire chest cavity.
Wen Mingyu couldn't help thinking.
he looks like……
A little bit reluctant to leave.
The author has something to say: Tyrant: Gu will not indulge him like this again.
Yuzai: I really want to eat longevity noodles OvO
Tyrant: Okay, I'll cook for you.
What a domineering and brutal tyrant~~
PS: I'm about to fall off the horse~
