Another snack is the walnut mille-feuille, which is crispy, fragrant, sweet and soft in one bite.
When Xiaoru took the first bite, he almost swallowed it with his tongue.
"Miss, this is so delicious. The emperor will definitely love it!" She devoured a piece and licked her fingers with unfinished content.
Shen Ning chuckled: "Don't brag, there's another plate here for you. Eat it slowly, but don't swallow your tongue."
She put a plate of walnut mille-feuille and xiaolongbao into the food box, picked it up and walked out.
"Miss, are you going to send snacks to the emperor?" Xiao Ru stuffed her mouth with mille-feuille and said inarticulately, "I will go with you, my slave."
"No need, you stay here and eat slowly, I can go by myself. Are you still afraid that I will grow wings and fly in this palace?" She went out with a smile and walked to the imperial study.
Unexpectedly, when I came to the imperial study room, I came to nothing.
Not only did she not see Mo Chuan, but even Xiao Si was not there. She asked the guard at the door of the imperial study room and said that Mo Chuan left just after noon and never came back.
Strangely, Mo Chuan was not in the imperial study room, where would he have been
Shen Ning carried the food box and walked slowly towards Guanju Palace.
By this time, the sky had darkened, the palace was lit up with lights, and the palace corridors were full of light and shadow as she walked slowly.
Although Mo Chuan is not in the palace, there must be secret guards around her to protect her, so she is not worried about her own safety at all, she only thinks about Mo Chuan.
When they returned to Guanju Palace, Mo Chuan was still nowhere to be seen. Xiao Ru came out to greet him, and when he saw the food box in her hand, he asked curiously: "Miss, didn't you go to deliver food to the Emperor? The Emperor doesn't Love to eat?”
Shen Ning shook her head and handed the food box in her hand to Xiaoru.
"This snack won't taste good if it's cold. If you can still eat it, just eat it all."
Xiao Ru was overjoyed, took the food box and said, "Thank you, Miss."
She happily carried the food box back to her room to enjoy some snacks. Shen Ning looked at her back and couldn't help but smile.
It's nice to be as careless as Xiao Ru. As long as she has delicious snacks to eat, she will be happy. Unlike Mo Chuan, there are always so many national affairs to deal with and so many troublesome things to worry about.
She returned to the room, picked up a book and sat under the lamp, reading while waiting for Mo Chuan to come back.
In two days, she will go to the Valley of Divine Doctors with Gu Qingze, so she cherishes the time she spends with Mo Chuan. She hopes to wait until Mo Chuan comes back, even if she doesn't speak, just look at him. of.
But what happened was counterproductive. She held the book in her hand and read only a few pages before falling asleep on the table unknowingly.
What she didn't notice was that there was a faint fragrance coming from the incense burner in the corner of the room.
Waiting until she fell asleep, Xiao Ru quietly opened the door and walked in. When she saw Shen Ning lying on the table, a touch of tenderness flashed across her face. She took a thin quilt and covered Shen Ning under it. He walked to the incense burner in the corner, extinguished the incense, and then quietly left.
The spices in this incense burner were specially given to her by Mo Chuan. They have the effect of calming the mind and lulling her to sleep.
Mo Chuan had long expected that Shen Ning would wait for him and refuse to fall asleep, so he came up with this method.
Shen Ning slept very deeply and soundly. She didn't know how long she slept. She felt someone pick her up and put her gently on the bed.
