Splendid Phoenix Journey: The Arrogant Princess

Chapter 279 Canonize Rouning County Lord
Unable to understand Shen Wanqing's thoughts, Shen Wanyu just smiled and took back the chopsticks.Pulling the corners of his mouth, a cool and pleasant voice slowly sounded.

"Hehe, my sister is busy learning the rules of the palace and going to the Shang Academy to study. Naturally, I don't know a lot of things. I just learned this cooking from Qiuzhu and those girls. Their cooking skills are better than mine. There are a lot."

Shen Wanyu spoke unhurriedly, and the whole Hou Mansion knew that she was very talkative.In terms of eating, I never treat myself badly, as long as I don't like her, I will stop eating immediately and would rather be hungry.

The old lady and madam loved her again, so the maids around her were carefully selected.And the culinary skills were sent to learn specially, that culinary skills are really better than the royal chef.So she couldn't find any fault with Shen Wanyu's excuse.

Shen Wanyu smiled slightly, and glanced at Qiuzhu standing behind Shen Wanyu.

"So that's the case, it's no wonder. But my sister is the daughter of the Hou's mansion, how can she learn cooking skills from a maid. If it gets out, it may not be good for the reputation of the Hou's mansion."

Shen Wanqing's words were soft and soft, and she seemed to be very concerned about the reputation of the Hou Mansion.In fact, it is saying that Shen Wanyu is willful and reckless, even learning cooking skills from his servants, which is belittling the Hou Mansion.

The queen mother is a person who pays great attention to rules and face. Although she loves Shen Wanyu very much, even more than her own granddaughter, she still frowned slightly.

The corner of Shen Wanyu's mouth twitched into a slight smile. It turned out that Shen Wanqing just wanted to discredit herself in front of the queen mother, so that the queen mother would have some bad opinions about herself.

"Second sister's words are wrong. The ancients have a saying. This learning is a part of noble and humble. Wanyu has always been interested in food. So I want to try to learn. It just so happens that the maid next to me is very good at cooking. Naturally, I have to follow Ask for advice, I don’t think there is anything embarrassing about the Hou Mansion. On the contrary, Wanyu thinks that it would be better if the reputation of the Hou Mansion is spread. This shows that the Hou Mansion treats the servants generously, and everyone in the Hou Mansion is happy.”

After Shen Wanyu finished speaking, she turned her head to look at the Queen Mother, and sure enough, she saw that the Queen Mother's complexion improved a lot.She looked at the queen mother with a smile, and said like a child asking for credit.

"Queen, are you right?"

The queen mother looked at Shen Wanyu with a smile, and nodded: "As long as you have a sharp mouth, you can say that black is white."

Although the words on the mouth were reproaches, but the tone was full of indulgence and no half blame.

Shen Wanyu turned her head and took a provocative look at Shen Wanqing, seeing the smile on her face, which seemed a bit unbearable.I can't express the happiness in my heart, it's really cool.

After lunch, Shen Wanyu got up to say goodbye.After leaving the Queen Mother's bedroom with Chu Mohan, Shen Wanqing bit her lips.Now that Shen Wanyu has returned safely, she has no reason to stay.And Shen Wanyu left and didn't call her, so she left or stayed at this time, and the situation was really embarrassing.

And at this moment, a little palace maid ran in.She whispered a few words in Nanny Gui's ear, and Nanny Gui was slightly surprised.Then he waved his hand to let the little palace maid back down.

"Granny Gui, what's the matter?"

Nanny Gui glanced at Shen Wanqing, then stepped forward and said respectfully: "If you go back to the Queen Mother, Zhen Zhaoyi from Qixiang Palace sent a maid here. She said she was asking Shen Wanqing to come over, saying that she hadn't seen her for a long time. See you."

The queen mother heard the words and looked at Shen Wanqing, and then remembered.Shen Wanqing's mother and Zhen Zhaoyi in the palace are cousins, so Shen Wanqing can also be regarded as Zhen Zhaoyi's niece.

"Wanqing, then go and have a look."

Shen Wanqing couldn't find any embarrassment, and now she nodded obediently when she heard the Queen Mother's words.

"Then Wanqing left first and went to see Zhen Zhaoyi."

Blessing her body, Shen Wanqing followed Nanny Gui and left the Nuan Pavilion after the Queen Mother nodded.Seeing the little maid waiting at the entrance of the main hall, she followed the little maid and left the Queen Mother's bedroom.

Shen Wanyu and Chu Mohan left the Queen Mother's bedroom, and they took a walk in the imperial garden for a while.Because the two had been married by the emperor before, they didn't have so many scruples.

Shen Wanyu sat on the stone chair in the gazebo, tilting her head slightly to look at Chu Mohan, who had a gentle smile on her face.

"Why did you come, the emperor's business is over?"

Chu Mohan smiled softly when he heard the words, and he looked at Shen Wanyu.The gentle spring breeze blew, blowing her long hair hanging on her chest.It brushed over her creamy white cheeks, and a few wisps stayed on her ruddy lips mischievously.

"I know you want to know how the emperor decided on that matter." Chu Mohan stretched out his hand, pinned the hair on her cheek behind her ear, and said softly: "This time the emperor is very angry, so the secret has already begun." Send someone to investigate. You don’t need to worry about this matter anymore, that person is not so easy to investigate. You can let those people die in prison overnight, so don’t underestimate it.”

Both of them knew who that person was, but they were both shocked that such a silent and cold person had developed such a great power without anyone's eyes.

"I know, but he always targets you and me. You must be more careful in the future, this reserve position is really scary."

Shen Wanyu held her chin with one hand and sighed.The troubles around her were one after another, but she never took the initiative to provoke anyone.

"Don't worry, this matter has already angered Longyan. He won't do anything again in a while, and next year he will go to the Four Kingdoms Competition. If he stands out in the competition, he will win the emperor's favor. more than anything."

Shen Wanyu nodded clearly, she knew the twists and turns.Although the emperor established a prince, as long as the emperor does not pass the throne down for a day.Then the prince may be abolished, or may be replaced.So this big competition is an opportunity for all princes.

Shen Wanyu was in a very happy mood to be stable for a year.This year, she was able to develop her power well. After all, after the Four Kingdoms Competition, it is estimated that Da Kun will also start some changes.

Chu Mohan stretched out his hand to pull Shen Wanyu into his arms, and put his chin on her curling paper.

"Little Yu'er, next year's Four Kingdoms Competition will be held in Dakun. The emperor will entrust this matter to me, your father and Lord Yun. I will be busy for a while. During this time, you have to take good care of yourself .And your martial arts, you need to practice more."

Shen Wanyu leaned against Chu Mohan's arms and nodded, the Four Kingdoms Competition is a big deal.Although there is still a year to go, there are many subtle details that need to be done.These chores require a lot of time.

"I know, don't make yourself too tired."

A soft voice came from his arms, and Chu Mohan raised the corners of his mouth.Gentle as water, charming soul.

It was already afternoon when Shen Wanyu returned to the Hou Mansion.As soon as she came back, she saw Shang Rui sitting in the yard with the little thing in her arms.

"Miss Shang is back when you are free?"

Shang Rui hasn't been back to Hou Mansion for a long time, and has always lived in the dim sum shop.It was a surprise to show up suddenly after not seeing him for several days.

"The dim sum shop is very busy these days. You say that you, a partner, don't go to see it. It's not easy for someone to sneak in to see you, but you still make sarcastic remarks."

Shang Rui grabbed the apple from the fruit plate on the table and threw it at her in a fit of embarrassment.

Shen Wanyu reached out to catch the flying apple, and took a bite with a smile.He walked slowly to the stone table and sat down beside Shang Rui.

Xiaoxue immediately threw herself into her arms, acting coquettishly.Shen Wanyu rubbed Xiaoxue's head, with a doting smile on the corner of her mouth.

"I didn't say anything sarcastic, but I was just a little surprised. By the way, I didn't go to Shang Academy these days. Didn't anything happen in the academy?"

While gnawing on an apple, Shang Rui said, "The news that you cured the plague spread in the college, and shocked a group of people's jaws. By the way, you also know about the Four Kingdoms Competition. The school posted it to inform Yes, let me show you."

As she spoke, she took out a folded piece of paper from her bosom and handed it to Shen Wanyu.

Shen Wanyu was slightly taken aback, what does the Four Kingdoms Competition and the Monk Academy have to do with it.She took the paper Shang Rui handed her, and was about to open it to have a look.

Qiuzhu and Chunlan ran over in a hurry, both of them were out of breath.

"what happened?"

Shen Wanyu put the paper in her hand on the stone table, raised her head and asked the two of them.

Qiu Zhu breathed a sigh of relief before he said, "Miss, Lord Hou told you to go to the front hall quickly. The imperial decree was delivered in the palace, saying it was for you. There are also several large boxes in the yard, and many more The eunuch holds many treasures in his hands."

When Shen Wanyu heard this, she narrowed her eyes slightly.A sly gleam flashed through his eyes, it seemed that Doctor Zhang conveyed to the emperor what she said that there is no such thing as a free lunch.

Shen Wanyu, who has always loved money like her life, is in an extremely happy mood at this moment.She stood up and pulled Shang Rui up.

"Come on, let's go and see."

When several people came to the front hall, Shen Wanyu was slightly taken aback.When everyone was present, she looked at the eunuch who came to announce the decree.She was still the eunuch next to the emperor, she soon came back to her senses and walked forward with a smile.

"Keep eunuch waiting for a long time."

"Miss Shen, don't say that, since Miss Shen is here, the miscellaneous family will start to announce the decree now."

After the eunuch finished speaking, Shen Wanyu nodded.Then he knelt down with everyone in the Hou Mansion, waiting for him to read the imperial edict.

The chief eunuch took the imperial edict handed over by the young eunuch beside him, slowly opened his mouth and began to read.

"By God's blessing, the emperor said. Shen Wanyu, the daughter of the Shen family, has made great contributions to curing the plague. She has personally been involved in dangers and is not afraid of diseases. It is really my blessing, and her medical skills are excellent. Now I canonize her as the county lord and bestow The name is Rouning. This is it."

Everyone was taken aback when they heard the order read out by the eunuch.
