While wiping the child's hands, Lu Zhishan said with a smile: "Fortunately, my daughter didn't say anything, otherwise everyone in the palace would have known that I, the dignified Prince Ning, was greedy and actually forced the princess to beg for a hare from her brother. I don’t even have the nerve to leave this tent.”
Mu Nanzhi also chuckled: "Then cousin, you have to thank me for not losing the face of Prince Ning, hahaha!"
As expected, Lu Zhishan bowed and saluted Mu Nanzhi, with a flattering smile on his face: "Xiaosheng, thank you Madam."
Mu Nazhi felt weird when he called his wife such a strange name, and was very embarrassed. Just as he was about to call Lu Zhishan, Du Heng lifted two hares in through the curtain, bowed and said to Lu Zhishan: "General Qi." , the fifth prince sent his servants to bring two hares."
The corner of Lu Zhishan's mouth twitched: "..."
Mu Nanzhi looked at Lu Zhishan with a look of surprise: "Cousin, fifth brother and we are really in tune with each other."
The corners of Lu Zhishan's mouth twitched even more fiercely: "..."
"Cousin, come and see. These two hares are really fat. They will be delicious when grilled. Hehehe, even the rabbit fur is so good. It's so smooth and smooth that it can be used as a fur collar," Mu Nanzhi said happily. Looking at the hare in Du Heng's hand with joy, his eyes shone brightly, and he ordered Du Heng, "Du Heng, please send someone to send the hare back to the palace now, and ask the kitchen to peel it and marinate it, waiting for me." When I return home with the prince, I’ll bake it over the fire and eat it while it’s still fresh. It will definitely be delicious and tender.”
"Yes, I obey." Du Heng retreated with the hare in hand.
"Cousin, are you happy that you had a hare to eat today?" Mu Nanzhi came up to Lu Zhishan and sat on Lu Zhishan's lap with his legs spread apart. He pinched Lu Zhishan's cheek and asked with a smile. , "If you want a rabbit, bring a rabbit. Cousin, you must be very happy, right?"
Lu Zhishan had a black line on his head: "...happy..." What a ghost!
The baby is not happy.
unhappy.
Not happy at all!
Lu Zhishan wanted to bully the heartless child in front of him, but when he looked at this smiling face, he couldn't do it.
He discovered, somewhat masochistically, that he actually really, really liked the child's heartless energy.
After chatting with the child for a while, Lu Zhishan took off a piece of mutton-fat jade pendant engraved with the pattern "To be the best" from his waist and asked Du Heng to give it to Lu Zhicheng as a return gift.

I still didn’t eat the roasted rabbit, because after coming out of the hunting ground in the western suburbs, Lu Zhishan took Mu Nanzhi directly to Xihuai Villa. Mu Nanzhi liked Xihuai Villa the most, so what else could he care about? The wild rabbit pickled in the palace followed his man to Xihuai Courtyard.
~~~~~~~~~~
Xihuai Villa.
As soon as Mu Nanzhifu entered Xihuai Villa, he hurriedly pulled Lu Zhishan into the back garden. The last time she came to Xihuai Villa was the Mid-Autumn Festival. At that time, the pomegranates and jujubes were not yet ripe again, so she I’ve been waiting to eat pomegranates and jujubes for a long time.
"Cousin, the pomegranates are growing really well this year," Mu Nanzhi said a little at a loss, holding three bowl-sized pomegranates in his arms and staring greedily at the ripe cracked pomegranates on the branches. "But cousin, there are too many pomegranates. There are ten pomegranate trees. There are so many pomegranates that we will definitely not be able to eat them all. It would be a pity if they go bad."
