Tang Dynasty good brother-in-law

Chapter 293 The Situation of Four Dishes

It was past midnight when Liu Mu returned to Wenyue Pavilion, if the imperial army hadn't sent him there, he would have been stopped by Marquis Wu for questioning.

The people in Wenyue Pavilion did not expect Liu Mu to come, and after seeing Liu Mu, they hurriedly prepared to tidy up a room for Liu Mu.

"Go and rest." Baoqin came out and signaled for others to leave.

"You didn't sleep?" Liu Mu knew that Baoqin had already left the palace.

Baoqin took Liumu's cloak: "The head of the house hasn't rested yet, but the servant can rest there."

"No one has ever said that you are a maid." Liu Mu followed Baoqin to the inner courtyard.

This room is a guest room, and water is boiling on the stove.Baoqin made a basin of hot water for Liumu and put it on the shelf: "Sir, sit down."

"I'll just do it myself." Liu Mu reached for the towel, held the qin to block Liu Mu's hand, pressed the hot towel on Liu Mu's face, and said at the same time: "This time, I told them that I want to hand over the sword emblem to you. gone."

Liu Mu knew what the knife emblem was, and it represented Baoqin's status in the team, and she was ranked fourth.

Headed by Ba Dao, Yi Dao, Ying Dao, Bao Qin, and Ye Siniang.A total of five people have the sword emblem.

When the hot towel was taken off his face, Liu Mu said, "That's fine, anyway, you don't like fighting."

"I only came up with this idea when I entered the palace today. Sometimes it is more interesting without a knife in my hand. I met Zuo Shanggong when I was in the palace. She stared at me. Her eyes were full of resentment. I was in the palace. She wondered if she had a knife in her hand and would come and cut me. But she didn't expect that I was invited into the inner room of Concubine Wan Gui's palace, and warm milk was prepared for me."

Baoqin laughed as he spoke.

Liu Mu was about to sit cross-legged on the couch, but Baoqin put a wooden bucket by Liu Mu's feet, and then poured hot water into it with the kettle on the stove: "It's cold, soak your feet to sleep."

This time Liu Mu wanted to wash his feet by himself, holding the piano without arguing, he continued: "When I was about to leave, Concubine Wan Gui specifically asked me where I was going, and I said to Wenyue Pavilion. Concubine Wan Gui arranged for a car to take me off. Two concubines even gave me special gifts, and I didn’t know until after I left the palace that they were Yuwen Zhaoyi and Concubine Cui.”

Willow nodded.

Baoqin said again: "I checked in Wenyue Pavilion, and Cui Bin is the daughter of Cui Jue, Qinghe Cui's branch. Yuwen Zhaoyi is Yuwen Shiji's younger sister, and Yuwen Chengdu's cousin."

"It's free to check these." Liu Mu smiled and pointed to the stool: "Give me the cloth towel."

Baoqin handed the cloth towel for wiping feet to Liumu's hand and said: "Someone is going to find out who is giving a gift. Is it safe to receive this gift?"

"What are you afraid of? If you are not stable, it is my business." Liu Mu is not worried.

Baoqin puts two basins of water outside the door, and someone will clean up the water.Poured a glass of water for Liu Mu and put it next to Liu Mu's hand, and said: "If I were a slave, no one would give me gifts. I recorded it in the palace three years ago. I was the princess' personal bodyguard. At that time, the princess I don’t want to live anymore, it’s because the old god Sun persuaded me that the opportunity didn’t come, so I lived in the Taoist temple.”

"Is there any official position?" Liu Mu asked curiously.

"Yes." While Baoqin was talking, he brought the gift in front of Liumu, but it was a precious item, a gold-plated bracelet and a head flower inlaid with a pearl.

Liu Mu was a little dazed while holding the gift: "This gift is a bit heavy."

"Zha is right, such an expensive gift should be replaced by an ordinary family's food and drink for several years." Baoqin didn't ask for the gift, but asked, "Do you want someone to warm your bed?"

Liu Mu was stunned for a moment, looking at Baoqin.

But Baoqin said: "Mr. Lang looked at me, maybe he ordered me to warm the bed." After finishing speaking, the corner of Baoqin's mouth raised into a smile: "But I don't follow, and the maid will leave." Before Liu Mu could react, Baoqin has already opened the door and went out, she is going to live in Ye Siniang's house.

Liu Mu smiled wryly and shook his head, thinking that he was molested by a little girl.

The next day, Liu Mu fell asleep and went up three shots in the sun.

After waking up, he was told that Zuo Shanggong had arrived at Chenshi, and he had been waiting in Wenyue Pavilion Xiaobao, and only wanted a glass of water.

"Where's holding the piano?" Liu Mu asked.

A little, Baoqin came, wearing a suit of exercises.

As soon as he entered the room, he sighed first: "Si Niang is getting stronger and stronger, I can't beat her anymore."

"Is Zuo Shanggong here?" Liu Mu didn't ask about the two girls practicing martial arts.

"I know."

"You go invite her to dinner." Liu Mu ordered, but Baoqin turned her head: "No, she wants to bite me when she sees me."

Liu Mu accompanied him with a smiling face and persuaded: "The more you do this, the more you will go. If there are three or five thieves with knives, you will definitely not be afraid. This is not a game of killing and killing, but it is the same. Let me tell you, let the kitchen prepare These few dishes, and then invite her to dinner, you don't need to say anything, I guess she will give in first."

"really?"

"Really!" Liu Mu nodded solemnly.

Baoqin believes in Liumu.

In Baoqin's mind, Zhang Chuchen is number one in the green forest when it comes to the ability to kill with a sword.As for the means of tricking people, Liu Mu is the number one in the green forest.

A quarter of an hour later, Baoqin sat opposite Zuo Shanggong.

Neither of the two took the initiative to salute first, they were all staring at each other.

Zuo Shangguan has found out Baoqin's true identity, and she is a female official enjoying the salary of the inner palace, which is equivalent to the income of a six-rank Shanggong Bureau career.

Soon, a young man came in with a tray, saluted, put down the tray and went out.

Baoqin reached out and picked up the bamboo woven cover on the first plate.

Zuo Shanggong's pupils instantly shrank.

She grew up in the palace since she was a child, from a young maid to the No. [-] palace, she can confidently say that her knowledge is beyond that of ordinary first-class ladies.

But at this time, she was surprised.

Because on the plate in front of her was an emerald green vegetable pressed into a cylindrical shape, with almonds mixed in, carved carrots on the side, and a few pieces of light red ones that she didn't know what they were.

The corner of Baoqin's mouth twitched slightly, and he picked up the second cover.

This is a soup, with green cabbage floating on the soup, as well as white watery tofu, and brown strips of vegetables that she still doesn't recognize.

The third plate is a scrambled egg with leeks.Just by looking at the appearance, you can tell that it is fresh leeks.

Then the last plate is dumplings, steamed dumplings.

"In the palace, have these ever existed?" Baoqin asked with a smile.

The first reaction in Zuo Shanggong's mind was, if you have it but the palace doesn't, aren't you afraid of big trouble?
Thinking of this, Zuo Shanggong felt guilty.

Thinking about the mirror, Princess Changping has a full-length mirror. It can be said that there is absolutely no second mirror in the entire Tang Dynasty, and there is indeed no mirror in the palace.Besides the Baifeng Pill, the ones in the palace are only borrowed from Concubine Wan Gui from Princess Changping, and only a few concubines have them.

Concubine Yin De, who has been favored recently, doesn't even want it, and there is nothing on the market.Concubine Wan Gui refused to give it to her because Concubine Yin De broke the rules and destroyed the inherent balance of the harem.
