Qingchuan shook his head gently, and replied in a low voice, "I don't know, it is said that he might have fallen after me."
She only thought that she was speaking in a low voice. Unexpectedly, the eighth brother who was listening to the side had already laughed out loud before she could hear her, and said to both of them: "It's not said that I really fell in love with you."
Qingchuan was immediately ashamed and embarrassed, and he never thought he would hear her and Gu Xiaochun's conversation clearly.
Eighth-age smiled, got up and walked over, sat down beside Qingchuan, roasting the meat in his hands, and said naturally: "Is there anything I dare not admit? I like Qingchuan. Ah, only in her eyes, I am not the tall and gentle eighth elder brother, I think this is very good."
Yes, because in my eyes you are a bully rascal! Qingchuan thought to himself, but if she killed her, she didn't dare to say it in front of Ba Ge. She was maligning, and Gu Xiaochun who was listening to the side suddenly exclaimed in a low voice: "Qingchuan, your roasted meat is going to be battered!"
Qingchuan shuddered with fright, his hand loosened, and the wooden stick with the barbecue fell onto the fire. When Qingchuan hurriedly pulled it out, the meat on it had already burnt black. Qingchuan's face suddenly collapsed, but the eighth brother next to him couldn't help laughing.
Qingchuan glared at him angrily, and said angrily: "Is it so funny?"
Eighth Brother forced a smile, took the charred meat in Qingchuan's hand, handed over the roasted meat, and smiled: "You can eat mine first."
He did this, but made Qingchuan feel a little embarrassed, and retorted: "You have the hardest hunting, so you should eat it yourself."
Eighth Brother stuffed the barbecue into her hand and said with a smile: "It's okay, you can eat it first."
Gu Xiaochun, who was on the side, naturally turned towards Qingchuan, wishing to see the eighth elder brother eating the charred, hurriedly persuaded Qingchuan to say: "Yes, Qingchuan, since the eighth elder brother asked you to eat first, you can just eat it, what are you polite. "
Qingchuan hesitantly took a small bite, and seeing Ba elder brother smile very slyly on his face, he couldn't help but ask aloud: "Ba elder brother, what do you eat then?"
"Me?" The Eighth Brother smiled lightly, suddenly grabbed Gu Xiaochun's barbecue, and raised it up and smiled at Qingchuan: "I've eaten this person's grill, but what does he eat? —" He smiled and threw the roasted barbecue in Qingchuan to Gu Xiaochun, "Just eat this one!"
Gu Xiaochun was shocked and angry. He never thought that the eighth prince would act so violently, and then said angrily: "You—"
Before the words came out, Ba Ge had already bowed his head and took a big bite on the barbecue, and Gu Xiaochun was so angry that he couldn't even speak. Qingchuan couldn't help laughing when he saw the childlike anger of the two of them. While smiling, I heard someone from behind praised: "It smells so good!"
The three of them all turned around and looked over, and saw Kangxi and Xi Bing with a bunch of eunuchs and palace ladies standing not far away watching. Eighth elder brother was startled, and hurriedly gathered a smile of laughter, took Qingchuan and Gu Xiaochun to greet him, and respectfully greeted Kangxi and Xiyi.
After drinking a few glasses of wine at the Kangxi banquet, he was in a good mood and laughed: "How about I was attracted by your scent? Do you have anything for me?"
Eighth elder brother hurriedly smiled, and said: "There are too many, Huang Ama, please eat, I will bake it for you."
When he said that, he led Kangxi and Xiu to the side of the fire, and Xiu glanced at the eighth elder brother. He was very satisfied, and smiled, and said to Kangxi: "Look, the emperor, how filial the eighth elder brother is. "
Eighth elder brother picked up his eyebrows slightly when he heard the words, but he ignored him, and just buried his head to prepare barbecue for Kangxi. When Kangxi saw him behave like this, he was very relieved, nodded lightly, and laughed loudly: "It's been a long time since I ate barbecue around the fire. Today, with the light of the old bachelor, let's not talk about monarchs and ministers, but only father and son. How about a good relaxation?"
The 僖嫔 hurriedly said: "Which of the blessings have you cultivated in your life? Thank you the emperor for his grace."
The Qingchuan trio thanked them again, and then sat down by the fire again.
At this moment, Kangxi was very approachable, and asked Gu Xiaochun casually: "What is delicious?"
It was the first time that Gu Xiaochun saw the emperor. Her heart was both nervous and excited. Listening to Kangxi's question, she hurriedly handed over the roasted venison, "The emperor, you taste this!"
He who had been sitting quietly by the side, looked at Qingchuan, then glanced at Ba Ge, the smile on his face increased a little, and smiled at Qingchuan: "Why don't you have wine and meat, but no singing and dancing? OK? Qingchuan, you can sing a song to us."
Although Qingchuan people are sitting here, they can't wait to shrink into the shadows, only to ask Kangxi and Xi Bing to ignore her, but he didn't even think about it, but he was named by him to sing, and he was stunned: "Sing?"
Kangxi caressed his hand and said: "Good idea, there is wine, meat and songs, it is a happy life."
Qingchuan was still thinking about how to politely refuse, but when he heard the emperor Lao Tzu say that, where he dared to make excuses, he had to bite the bullet and said: "Then... Qingchuan is showing his ugliness." At the same time, he quickly calculated that he had to get it. Find a song that is neither "lewd" nor "reactionary", and cannot contain future vocabulary! Oh my God, this is simply her life, modern songs are not only love and love, but also express sorrow, where is such a suitable song!
When everyone looked at her, Qingchuan even sweated in her palms. After thinking about it for a long time, she finally came up with a song. She cleared her throat and sang softly: "When will the moon come, ask Qingtian about the wine. What year is it..."
Halfway through the singing, Kangxi already praised: "Okay!"
Sure enough, the Qingchuan secret road has the benefits of passing through the classics. Although it is covered by many passing women, is it good or bad
There are wine, meat and songs by the fire, and the atmosphere is very warm. The chief eunuch Li Dequan looked at Kangxi happy, so he secretly retreated, walked straight to a thick tree in the distance before stopping, and said to the fourth elder brother who had been standing silently in the shadows: "The old slave called Brother Si has been waiting for a long time."
Brother Si's eyes still fell by the fire in the distance, and he smiled faintly when he heard the words, and said: "Yinzhen knows Li Ruida's difficulties."
Li Dequan saw that the fourth elder brother was still looking at the fire, he moved a few steps closer, and whispered: "The eighth elder brother is very eye-catching recently, and the emperor often mentions him."
The fourth elder brother withdrew his gaze after hearing this, and said in a low voice: "Let's not care how the meat is roasted by others, let's roast our own meat first. Are you ready for everything?"
Li Dequan smiled flatteringly and promised: "Four brothers, don't worry, the old slave will do it for you."
Si elder brother nodded softly.
Li Dequan said again: "The old slave is going back first. The slave of Xiao Shunzi is young, and the slave is afraid that he will not be able to do anything, so he has to stare at him with his own eyes."
Si elder brother thanked him: "Then you will have a good knowledge of Lao Li."
Li Dequan hurriedly avoided his courtesy sideways, resigned from the fourth elder brother and went to the Imperial Tent. In the Kangxi imperial account, Xiao Shunzi had already put several kinds of cakes on the table. Seeing Li Dequan came back, he hurriedly asked: "Goddaddy, do you think this would work?"
Li Dequan used to take a look at those beautiful desserts, and praised: "Yes, well done."
Xiao Shunzi breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help asking the doubts in his heart: "Godfather, why don't you let the Suyan girl wait here directly? Wouldn't it be more convenient for the emperor to ask?"
Li Dequan listened, raised his hand and slapped Xiao Shunzi on the back of his head. He cursed in a low voice, "Stupid, we don't know if the emperor is satisfied with these cakes, so we will bring strangers in. In case something happens, the emperor. We must be able to guess that we are colluding inside and outside. Don’t even recommend the princess girl at that time. We won’t even be able to keep our position. Now we are just preparing snacks for the emperor. The emperor is not satisfied, and it doesn’t matter if we don’t eat it. If the emperor is satisfied, the emperor is not satisfied. , And then pass the Su Yan girl, everything is a matter of course."
Suddenly, Xiao Shunzi quickly flattered Li Dequan and said, "Thank you godfather for his teaching, my son has learned another trick!"
Li Dequan smiled triumphantly, and asked people to come in carefully and instructed everyone to raise their spirits and take good care of them. There was a small eunuch outside quietly sending a letter over, saying that Kangxi had come to the imperial account. Up. After a while, Kangxi's hearty laughter came from outside the account.
"This group of young people is really interesting, I haven't been so happy in a long time."
The 嫖嫔 had the heart to say good things for the eighth prince, and said with a chuckle: "This is all the credit of the eighth prince. You see that he is not arrogant or impetuous, and he is close to his subordinates as a family. He is definitely a royal descendant. ."
Kangxi nodded and said yes, and smiled: "This old man, I really didn't see it."
The two came in talking and laughing. Li Dequan hurriedly brought Xiao Shunzi and the others to greet him. While twisting the hot towel handle to clean the noodles for Kangxi, he asked carefully: "Does the emperor still use some supper?"
Kangxi didn't think much, and replied casually: "No, I'm full."
Li Dequan's eyelids trembled. He didn't dare to say more. He lowered his head slightly, and was secretly calculating how he could tell Kangxi to see those snacks, but Kangxi accidentally caught a glimpse of the snacks on the table, wondering:" Hey? Why are these pastries here?"
Li Dequan was overjoyed, but there was no sign on his face. Just as he was about to answer, he heard Xi'an say, "Probably it was prepared by the imperial dining room."
Kangxi walked to the table and looked down, shook his head and said, "No, this kind of cakes can only be made by Madam Su who was next to the empress dowager. Li Dequan, where did they come from?"
Li Dequan had already typed drafts countless times in his belly. Hearing Kangxi's questions, he answered calmly: "If you return to the emperor, the imperial dining room will not be able to make any new tricks in the past few days, so the minion thought, it's better to let Liu The people in the palace who are good at cooking all came to show their hands. It happened to meet this maid named Tong Suyan, whose cooking was somewhat similar to that of Madam Su back then, so I boldly brought it to the emperor to try."
Kangxi picked up a piece of it and tasted it, closed his eyes and nodded gently: "Okay, Li Dequan, bring that maid to me and see, if you really have the ability, stay in the Qing Palace."
That was what Li Dequan waited for. Hearing this, he hurriedly gave a "hit" and withdrew from the big account.
He was shocked when he heard Su Yan's name just now. Now that he saw Kangxi staring at them in a daze, he couldn't help but become even more annoyed, I was afraid Su Yan would really get into Kangxi's eyes again. She looked at the cakes, then at Kangxi, smiled charmingly, and said: "It's just some cakes. If the emperor loves to eat, his concubines should also learn."
Never thought that Kangxi said: "You can't learn this."
He was startled and asked subconsciously: "Why?"
Kangxi smiled softly, and just said: "You will never learn this."
He smiled softly on his face and stopped talking, but in his heart he hated the plaintiff to death, thinking that he had to find some way to get rid of the plaintiff.
In addition to Su Yan, she was already waiting very anxiously. Since finishing the snack, she has been waiting for Kangxi's summons at the back of the imperial account, but she hasn't waited for news until now. She walked back and forth a few times in the same place, and couldn't help but ask Si elder brother who stood silently by the side: "Si elder brother, why haven't you answered the letter yet?"
Si elder brother looked calm, just asked: "Are you sure that the emperor can see your cakes?"
Su Yan nodded and said: "I have thought about it carefully. The reason why the emperor has missed those pastries for so many years is not only because of the delicious pastries, but also because of the memories of his childhood. Before I came to Nanyuan, I had a lot of contact with Madam Su. Madam Su had a relationship with court ladies before her death. They said that Madam Su likes to have the scent of wormwood on her body, so the things she makes will definitely have this taste. I just added wormwood to the snacks according to what they said. I hope to evoke the emperor’s memory of the past."
Si elder brother thought for a while and praised: "You have always been cautious in doing things, and your judgment must not be wrong."
Hearing what he said, Su Yan calmed down a bit, raised his eyes and looked at him, and saw that the color between his brows was still indifferent, and couldn't help but ask softly: "Four brothers, you, how have you been recently?"
Si elder brother was slightly startled, before he spoke, he saw Li Dequan hurriedly walking over, and whispered: "Si elder brother!"
Si elder brother hurriedly greeted him and asked, "How is it?"
