Seeing Ye Jiayao's happy look, Xia Chunyu couldn't bear to say the next words.
Although the emperor asked He Lianxuan to come back, the emperor was still wary of He Lianxuan, so he asked He Lianxuan to return to Jinling with only his own bodyguards, while the rest of his men stayed in the northeast and others took over. The person who took over was the emperor's own cronies.
This is tantamount to reducing Helianxuan's military power.
The reason was that King Yu was behind it. If he hadn't hinted to the emperor that the prince's death guard was formed with the help of He Lianxuan, the emperor would not be so worried about He Lianxuan. Although no evidence was found in the end, once the emperor's suspicions arose, it was not so easy to eliminate them.
In the current situation, we can only take one step at a time. It is not a problem to stay in the Northeast. Now there are people who are eyeing the northwest camp. It is better for He Lianxuan to come back and take charge of the overall situation.
Putting aside these worries, Xia Chunyu glanced at the booklet open on the table, which was filled with dense recipes.
"What cuisines are you sorting out now?" Xia Chunyu asked.
Ye Jiayao said with a headache: "Hunan cuisine, this is the cuisine I am least good at. I have to ask a chef to cook Hunan cuisine, but there are very few such people in Jinling City."
"Then you won't sort out the cuisines you are familiar with first? As for Hunan cuisine, when will we go to the south, take a detour to western Hunan, do some on-the-spot inspection, and then visit the local chefs, won't that solve everything?" Xia Chunyu smiled.
Ye Jiayao's eyes brightened, but then dimmed again. Going to the south was probably a matter of time, at least in the past two years. She also hopes that this food guide will come out soon!
Xia Chunyu understood her thoughts and said calmly: "It takes a lifetime to write a historical record, and it takes decades to write a pharmacopoeia, traveling all over the mountains and rivers, and tasting all kinds of herbs. What you have done, in terms of merit and difficulty, No less than them, just take your time, you are already very impressive if you can do this."
Hearing this, Ye Jiayao suddenly felt enlightened. Yes, what she is writing now is just based on the experience accumulated in her previous life. In this life, the only place she has traveled is from Shandong to Jinling, and in this era It is not the period of history that I am familiar with. Perhaps, there are many delicacies that I have never seen. If I just do it behind closed doors, I will inevitably be suspected of being a frog in the well. It will be miserable if I end up making a fool of myself. It is better to take my time. In this life, as long as I can If you complete this thing, your life will be worth living.
"Chunyu, thank you." After Ye Jiayao thought about it, she felt relaxed, hugged Chunyu's neck, and gave him a kiss on the face.
Xia Chunyu touched his face and said with a bad smile: "Okay, you kissed me and my face is covered with saliva. It's indecent to go back and forth."
Ye Jiayao laughed angrily and said, "I'm not Bao'er, Bao'er is just playing with saliva!"
"You are the same." Xia Chunyu pressed the back of her head and kissed her hard on her eyes and nose.
"Ah, are you Dahei? How can you lick someone like this?" Ye Jiayao tried her best to hide.
"What? Dahei actually dares to lick you, this damn dog is so brave! I'm going to knock it out and make soup..."
"Dahei, it's so far away in the sky and right in front of you..."
"Okay, if you dare to accuse Sang and Huai, let's see how I treat you..."
"Help, I don't dare..."
Outside the house, Qiao Xi and Xiang Tao pursed their lips and snickered. The prince and the second young lady were really in love.
The two played around for a while. Ye Jiayao's face was as bright as a cloud, and she was panting slightly. She finally broke away and complained: "Look, you've messed up my hair."
I hurriedly went to the Linghua Mirror to tidy up my appearance. I had to go to the main courtyard later.
Xia Chunyu picked up the already cold tea and drank most of the cup to cool down the fire.
Every time he teases her, it makes him unable to control himself. It's strange to say that they have been married for a long time, so why are they still acting like a young boy, reacting to the slightest touch, and having poor self-control ability.
Outside, Song Qi took a letter and entered the courtyard. When he saw Qiao Xi and Xiang Tao standing on the porch, whispering and laughing, he asked, "Where is the prince?"
"It's inside!" Xiangtao pointed inside with an ambiguous expression.
Song Qi was a good person, and he immediately understood that it must be full of spring at this time, and it was not suitable to disturb him, but the prince had ordered that any letters from Yangzhou must be reported to him immediately.
"But this..."
Qiao Xi asked: "Is it important?"
Song Qi nodded, the special instructions must be important!
Qiao Xi thought for a while and went to send a message: "Your Majesty, Song Qi wants to see you."
Xia Chunyu opened the door curtain and came out, and Song Qi hurriedly presented the letter.
Xia Chunyu tore it open and took a look, waved his hand for Song Qi to get out, and then turned around and entered the house.
"What does Song Qi want from you?" Ye Jiayao had already finished arranging her hair. Seeing that Xia Chunyu's expression was not right, and her face was solemn, she asked with concern.
Xia Chunyu handed the letter to her: "Look at it."
Ye Jiayao opened it in confusion, and her expression changed involuntarily.
She had almost forgotten about this matter, but she didn't expect that Chunyu had been pursuing it.
"It is indeed the Ning family." Ye Jiayao said angrily.
It was said to be a letter, but in fact it was a confession. It was a confession from Dr. Gu, who had treated Ye Jiayao before. He confessed to the fact that he had poisoned Ye Jiayao's medicine under Ning's instructions.
"This Doctor Gu left Yangzhou after he harmed you. He has been practicing medicine in other places for these years. It was difficult to find him. At first he denied it, but he used some tricks before he was willing to confess truthfully." Xia Chunyu said.
"What do you want to do?" Xia Chunyu asked.
what to do? Ning is already dead, no matter how much you hate her, you can't dig her body out from the grave and whip her body! It's a pity that it was too late to know. As for Dr. Gu, a doctor who saves lives and heals the wounded is good. He poisons patients for a few dollars. This kind of doctor has no medical ethics at all and is not worthy of being a doctor at all. He can harm her for money, who can guarantee that he won't? Harm others for money? How many people have he harmed over the years
Ye Jiayao gritted her teeth and said, "Leave it to the government to investigate and deal with it. As a doctor, using your medical skills to harm people is unforgivable."
Damn it, if she hadn't met Dr. Jiang, she would have been doomed in her life.
Xia Chunyu nodded in agreement, he also meant the same thing.
"This letter and this confession must be given to your father to take a good look at."
Take a good look at these words, Xia Chunyu bites them hard. Although it was Ning who did the thing, as the head of the family and as a father, he was so neglectful to his daughter. Ning's audacity and his connivance are inextricably linked, and they are also unforgivable.
How could he be forgiven for almost wiping out his descendants
Recalling the time in Heifenggang, when Yaoyao talked about her pitiful life experience, he still doubted it, but it turned out that it was all true. If Ye Binghuai were standing in front of him now, he would definitely give Ye Binghuai a lesson.
"I won't go back in May." Ye Jiayao said angrily.
The eighth day of the fifth lunar month was the day when Ye Binghuai got married again. She was a groom at such a young age. Originally, she wanted to go, but for Zhong Yuan, she had to go. But now she doesn't want to go, she really doesn't want to see Ye Binghuai's face.
"You don't have to go, I'll go." Xia Chunyu said.
"This trip, I will bring Zhongyuan back. The one-year period of filial piety has expired, and it is time for him to return to the Imperial Academy. From now on, let Zhongyuan stay in Jinling to avoid following your father's example."
What a bullshit father. Ye Binghuai is not her Ye Jiayao's father. Her Ye Jiayao's father is the most kind and reasonable father.
Ye Jiayao cursed in her heart, but couldn't say it out loud.
Xia Chunyu immediately revised a letter, put the confession into an envelope, and ordered it to be sent to Yangzhou.
During dinner, Youshi saw Ye Jiayao's worried appearance and loss of appetite, and asked with concern: "The food today is not to your liking?"
"No, no, it's very good!" Ye Jiayao came back to her senses and said hurriedly.
Youshi smiled slightly: "Looking at how thin you are, you should eat more. Qiao Xi, give the Second Young Mistress a bowl of black-bone chicken soup. This black-bone chicken soup is the most effective for replenishing the body, especially for women."
Now that everything has settled down, what You is most concerned about is Chunyu's heirs. The poison in Jinxuan's body has been eliminated. She asked Dr. Jiang again and again, and Dr. Jiang said there was no problem. Previously, it was not suitable to be pregnant because of the national mourning. Now, it has been almost three months since the Queen Mother was laid to rest. It is time for her to be fine. News! Could it be because Jinxuan is too thin? Well, she must eat more and gain weight so that it will be easier for her to get pregnant.
"I'll come." Xia Chunyu personally served Ye Jiayao chicken soup.
"Second brother is really considerate." Qiao said with envy, but her eyes were fixed on Chunli.
Chunli just pretended not to see it. This kind of thing can be done when two people are together, but now that the whole family is here, he is embarrassed.
Seeing that he was indifferent, Mrs. Qiao rolled her eyes at him in frustration.
Youshi saw this in her eyes and thought that he had never served her food even once in all the years she had been married to him. She also sighed sourly: "Hey, the old one is not as sensible as the young one."
The Marquis was concentrating on dealing with a piece of Dongpo meat. He was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then he realized it and said with a smile: "Chunfeng, hurry up and get a fish belly for your mother."
Chunfeng immediately obeyed and said with a smile: "Mother, father knows that you love this most."
Youshi glanced sideways at the master: "Don't you have any hands? Do you want to command your son?"
The Marquis was stunned and said: "Isn't this the fish on Chunfeng's side? He is very close."
Ye Jiayao couldn't laugh or cry. One of Chunyu's actions actually aroused the envy of her sister-in-law and mother-in-law. She was jealous... Hey, women's hearts are the same. No matter how old or young they are, they hope that the people they love can take good care of them. , even if it’s just once.
But in this era where men are superior to women, it is really not easy for men to serve women. Good men like Chunyu are rare.
Okay, then she will help her sister-in-law and mother-in-law fulfill their wishes today.
"Mother Sun, please change the West Lake vinegar fish so that the master can catch it." Ye Jiayao said with a smile.
Mother Sun sighed and replaced the West Lake vinegar fish with a smile.
Youshi glanced sideways at Mr. Hou to see if you have any other reasons now.
