The Regent's Concubine

Chapter 73
Where is it like?If you talk about face, you can tell at a glance, she is very similar to the former empress, but what Feng He is talking about is temperament.But what interested her was the melodious and melancholy expression on the man Feng He's face when he talked about her mother, with deep and strong emotions.

Could she think that the Northern Qi princess had a close relationship with the Northern Qi general before she got married?

However, this is limited to her own conjecture.

Long Yunqin laughed. As a daughter with a green waist, she guessed whether her mother had something to do with other men.That's probably how she is.

"Dongmei, why did you come back from outside?"

Long Yunqin pulled back his thoughts and saw Dongmei walking in from the outside carrying a small pot, so he asked aloud.

Dongmei paused, walked forward, and whispered softly, "The guard Mei came here before and asked the slave to go to Yuquan to get something. The slave originally wanted to tell the princess, but you have already gone out, so the slave dared to go there by herself." .”

Putting the things in her hands on the table, Dongmei carefully looked at the woman in front of her. It was the first time she mustered up the courage to do something. I don't know if it will annoy Her Royal Highness?
Long Yunqin didn't care about this, Dongmei was too shy, she should let go.Just this little pot?She looked familiar, "The regent brought it over?"

"Yes, the guard Mei asked the servant to take it back to make a medicinal meal, saying that it is for the princess to make up for you."

Long Yunqin looked curious, it should be Ling Che's confession, right?What could be inside? It looked like a jug made of peach blossoms, but the mouth of the pot was smaller.Thinking of the plaster in the bowl last time, Long Yunqin couldn't help but open the lid.

Shaking the jug and bottle, it was a bit heavy, and she couldn't see what was inside after looking at it for a long time.

"What's inside?"

Dongmei leaned over and looked down, only to see a black reflection, but the smell made her frown, and then she picked up the chopsticks and stuck them in, and the chopsticks started to shake after a while.Dongmei brought out the chopsticks, and a long green strip was placed on the chopsticks. The cold liquid was mixed with the aroma of wine, and the wet touch hit her fingers.

There was a hissing sound, Dongmei's face turned pale, she threw the chopsticks away in fright, and fell to the ground.

"snake……"

It turned out to be a live snake!

Long Yunqin's heartbeat also accelerated. Although she didn't turn pale with fright like Dongmei, she couldn't sit still anymore. The transparent green snake that crawled out with the chopsticks was now circling around her table, circling around the table. The mouth of the pot circled and circled, She Xinzi hesitating and spitting out so fast that she got goosebumps all over her body.

Helping Dongmei up, Long Yunqin's complexion was not good, "What did you say? Then the contents of this pot can be used as medicinal food?" The snake is used as medicinal food, and it is for her to eat!

Nima, are you playing with her?She doesn't like this reptile!

Dongmei turned her stiff neck and said tremblingly, "It's...it's like this."

Long Yunqin stared at the green snake for a long time, and finally left a sentence, "Lead the snake back and send it back."

Dongmei stared at her with red eyes, she was too frightened to move, she had dealt with dead snakes before, but never dealt with them alive.

In the end, Xia Yu, a carefree girl, came in to lure the snake back, giggling excitedly while holding the pot, "Princess, where did this good thing come from, Zhuyeqing's little cub! It seems that it hasn't been long since it hatched. It’s made from peach blossoms, it’s the best way to warm up your body from the cold! Would you like me to take it down and cook something delicious for you, stewed snake soup?”

Long Yunqin almost felt sick and walked out of the main hall.

The weather was just right, she walked out of the Chonghua Palace all the way, and took a walk nearby.Unknowingly, he walked out of that range, and stopped when he saw a brilliant peach blossom in front of him.

If I remember correctly, there is only one place in the palace that has such a peach blossom grove, Taoyao Palace.

How did she get here?

Without thinking much, Long Yunqin turned around and turned back, for fear of bumping into the national teacher Yi Xiang.

Which one was too late at this time, she just raised her foot and a joking voice sounded behind her, "Did Your Highness see a ghost? She ran so fast? Or is my Taoyao Palace some kind of place I can't avoid?"

Looking at the stiff back not far away, Yi Xiang felt quite happy.He noticed her when she appeared near Taoyao Palace, but he didn't bother her. He didn't stop until she realized that she wanted to leave.

Annoyed in Long Yunqin's heart, he really shouldn't have come out, and he came here after being lost in the scenery for a while.National teacher Yi Xiang, someone she was very reluctant to contact.

"National teacher, what a coincidence." Long Yunqin greeted with a smile.

Yi Xiang shook his head, and strolled up to her, "Unfortunately, I noticed you early in the morning."

For a moment, she was only left with embarrassment, as if she had broken into someone else's place.

Yi Xiang turned around, pointed to the peach blossom branches protruding from the wall, and said, "Your Highness, don't go in and have a look, this peach blossom forest seems to have vitality, and it has been recorded twice intact."

"Don't disturb the national teacher."

"Your Highness, don't you wonder why I follow you? The third prince probably told you that I asked him about your birthday, Your Highness."

Long Yunqin was stunned, the third brother never told her!Long Qingyang just told her that the national teacher wanted to inquire about her, but he didn't explain that the national teacher wanted to ask about her birth date.

Seeing Long Yunqin like this, Yi Xiang shrugged innocently, "It seems that I am talking too much, the third prince probably didn't say anything."

Long Yunqin's mind was full of thoughts, and finally he stabilized his mind and thought for a long time, then took a step towards Yi Xiang, "Does this palace know why the national teacher wants to know my birth date?"

She thought that Yi Xiang would not tell, or that he would speak vaguely, but he went straight to the point succinctly.

"Inquiring about the horoscope of the birthday is naturally only used for the grand ceremony."

Long Yunqin was a little puzzled, she didn't understand the great sacrifice of Nanhuang Kingdom.

However, Yi Xiang had already walked back towards the Taoyao Palace, and said, "If you don't mind, Her Royal Highness, come in for a cup of tea and have a look at the Peach Blossom Forest, it's very good!"

He intentionally aroused her interest and doubts, but now he didn't finish his sentence. She knew that to know the answer, she had to enter Taoyao Palace, but her rationality still told her that once she entered, she would get involved with the national teacher, which is not good.

At last……

Long Yunqin was sitting in a pavilion in the Taoyao Palace, facing the man Yi Xiang.As expected, there was only a cup of tea in front of him, with a few petals floating on it.

She picked it up and sipped it. The green tea had a peach blossom fragrance, and the water was specially processed.

Yi Xiang said disapprovingly, "Since there are good things, it would be a waste not to use them. Collect the morning dew on the peach petals every morning, accumulate little to make a lot, and finally use the peach stamens to brew and use it to make tea. It's not bad."

Long Yunqin secretly lamented the extravagance, only those who know how to enjoy themselves would do it so painstakingly and complicatedly, not even Ling Che.
