Marriage of the Di Daughter

Inexplicably, I came to the government just in time for lunch, so we sat down to eat together.

Everyone else was very happy except Ji Heng, who didn't look as smiling as usual.

Kong Liuhe and Wen Renyao were the most lively, and Wen Renyao said enthusiastically, "Miss Jiang, try our Lord's craft. It's more authentic than the imperial chef in the palace, and it's not something you can taste every day. It's a new year's holiday..."

With a "pa", the silver chopsticks in Ji Hong's hand broke at the sound, and she immediately silenced when she heard that people were far away. It was extremely quiet.

General Ji glanced at Jiang Li and asked, "girl, your surname is Jiang? I haven't asked you yet, which family girl is it? According to your accent, is it from Yanjing?"

Jiang Li politely replied, "yes. My father is Jiang Shoufu, and the old general should know him. I'm a sophomore at home."

"Jiang Yuanbai?" General Ji's expression changed and asked, "are you Jiang Yuanbai's daughter?"

Jiang Li nodded.

General Ji didn't mumble a word. His eyes at Jiang Li were not as eager as before. It seems that Jiang Yuanbai and Jiang Yuanbai had some festivals in the past, but Jiang Li didn't care much.

She tasted the ham and bamboo shoot soup in the small cup in front of her, which was very delicious. I also tasted jujube paste yam cake, which was sweet and sour. Wen Renyao is right. Although she is not a person who can often use imperial cuisine, she wants to come to the imperial kitchen to cook meals, but also so.

Ji Xuan can cook and her craft is so good, which overturns Jiang Li's previous imagination. Jiang Li felt that he had never really known Ji Heng since he had such a fiery side besides being a schemer who was busy attracting souls all day long.

"How's it going?" Kong Liu laughed and said, "is the food still delicious?"

Jiang Li nodded, "very good."

Ji Heng threw his chopsticks impatiently. It seemed that he had exhausted all his patience to eat with such a large table of people here. Endure and endure, and then pick up chopsticks again.

"Can Miss Jiang Er cook?" Wen Renyao suddenly asked Jiang Li, "I've heard that some girls have different talents in cooking, but I've never met one. Like September, I can't cook anymore. I'm afraid she's poisoning it."

Situ Jiujiu sneered, "you are poisonous in the bowl now."

Jiang Li was stunned and said, "a little."

"I know that Miss Jiang Er is modest. The so-called meeting a little should be very good." Hearing the news, my eyes lit up.

Kong Liu also looked at Jiang Li. It was so strange that Jiang Li could cook. Kong Liu had seen the shadow of this girl riding and shooting in the school field, and she was a master who was as good as a woman. Although it looks weak, it's actually murderous. If she hadn't been Jiang Yuanbai's daughter, Kong Liudu would have recruited her to the riding team. How can such a girl wash her hands and make soup? What a monstrous thing!

"What is Miss Jiang er's best skill?" Hearing people ask from afar.

Jiang Li thought, "roast venison and call flowers and birds."

As soon as this word came out, people in the room all focused on Jiang Li, and even Ji Heng, who had not been very happy, looked at her inquisitively.

"This... This... Can Jiang Fu do this?" Wen Renyao hesitated.

"It's like a Jianghu guest." Lu Ji narrowed his eyes, "the second miss has always been very natural and unrestrained."

"I have lived in Qingcheng Mountain for eight years, and many things are different from Yanjing city." Jiang Li said with a smile, "the cold on the mountain is heavy. Although it doesn't snow in winter, it seems to be colder than Yanjing city. If a hunter hunts the deer, take away the deer skin, and sell the deer meat to us at a low price. My servant girl and I can set up firewood in the forest and roast the deer meat without any seasoning. A little coarse salt is enough. The roasted deer meat doesn't smell fishy, but because there are bamboo sticks strung with bamboo fragrance."

What she said was not slow, but it made a picture appear before everyone's eyes. Deep in the mountains in winter, a master and a servant, two little girls, surrounded by a hot firewood pile, their faces were red. Deer meat is on the bamboo pole, and the roasted meat is Zizi and oily, which becomes the only taste in the mountains.

"Killing and eating meat are not allowed in the temple. Did you run out secretly?" Situ Jiujiu asked.

"Yes." Jiang Li said with a smile, "carrying the people in the nunnery."

"It's hard for you to laugh." Situ Jiujiu snorted.

The crowd looked at Jiang Li with a little pity, but it made Jiang Li cry and laugh. In fact, she didn't really stay in Qingcheng Mountain for eight years. These methods of roasting deer meat were also learned from Xue Zhao. But in the eyes of others, it's about having fun in bitterness, and it's very satisfying.

"Girl Jiang, what's the origin of that flower and bird?" General Ji was about to eat something, and did not express any other emotion about Jiang Li's tragic situation. He just asked, "I have only heard of the call of flower chicken, but not the call of flower bird."

"In fact, it's similar to a beggar's chicken," Jiang Li smiled. "After cleaning up the birds hit by the slingshot, you don't have to pluck their hair. Put some seasoning in their stomach, wrap it in mud, and bury it in the ashes of the fire. After half an hour, take it out and pat it off. Naturally, the hair is brought down. It's very beautiful golden yellow, brushed with a layer of honey, and you can eat it."

General Ji patted his thigh, "that's good! I'll go to fight a bunch of birds tomorrow!"

"Old man, it's freezing, where's the bird..." Lu Ji was helpless.

"Your life is quite rich." Ji Heng put his chin on one hand and looked at her with a smile.

After all, he's not the man eating dead look just now.

"Yes, Miss Jiang Er, your cooking skills are different from what I think." Wen Renyao said, "I thought you were cooking in your own kitchen. Others prepared all the materials, and the maid also prepared them. You just need to move your mouth. I didn't expect you to find the ingredients yourself, and the food you eat is different from others. But it sounds very interesting, different from the common boudoir lady!"

Jiang Li smiled, "it's just forced by the situation."

When she was Xue Fangfei, after she married the Shen family, she also washed her hands for her mother-in-law, sister-in-law and husband. Because of her outstanding craftsmanship, the Shen family is not rich, and even the cook is saved. She is best at roast venison in winter, but Shen's mother won't let her cook it in the house. It's said that the taste is too strong. It's something that farmers and hunters will eat. It can't be on the table.

So the fun of barbecue and drinking in winter is gone. In fact, now think about it, from the beginning of marriage to the Shen family, she sacrificed too much, that free self.

She fell into her own thoughts until Ji Heng's voice called back her thoughts. Ji Heng said, "the government can also roast venison another day." He looked at Jiang Li and said with a smile, "come here."

"Me?" Jiang Li was surprised.

"I won't." Ji Xuan's beautiful long eyes narrowed, "of course you come."

"But..." her relationship with Ji Heng is not enough to roast venison at each other's house! This is the government house, not Jiang's house. Why did she go to the government house to roast venison? Is the government house a restaurant?

"Good good!" General Ji, "why did the emperor know and not say?" Jiang Li put on an open-minded attitude of asking for advice, "is there any other use for him to keep his concubines?"

Ji Heng was still smiling, but his tone was sharp. He said, "this is a secret of the court. Little girl, don't want to know everything. Be careful of killing yourself."

Unfortunately, Jiang Li is now more and more daring in front of him, not afraid of it, but said righteously: "but my life now belongs to the Lord of the country. The Lord of the country told me the secret, and I will always take it to the coffin. The dead can keep the secret, can't they? If so, what's the matter with telling me?"

The girl looked up slightly. She was not very old. It was a good time. She could see the youthful vitality, just like the flowers in the courtyard of the government, which could bloom brightly even in the cold winter.

Ji Heng has lived for more than 20 years and has seen many people laughing about life and death. There are dead men with secrets, and there are brave men who die for great righteousness. But I have never seen a 15-year-old girl calmly talking about her death. There was no fear of death or timidity on her face. She said so calmly that people couldn't help wondering what happened to her to cultivate such a contradictory temperament.

He smiled and said, "it's like you died once."

Jiang Li's eyes darkened slightly.

Of course, she died. It was because she died once that she more understood why Princess Yongning had to kill her and destroy her door. Because in the view of Princess Yongning, only the dead will keep the secret.

"Speaking of it," Ji Heng suddenly thought of something, looked at Jiang Li and said, "since you keep saying that your life is mine, when are you going to give your life to me? Now Ji shuran is dead, and there is no opponent for you in the Shoufu family."

Jiang Li was stunned and looked up at him.

The young man's red robe reflects the snow, and his posture is lazy and elegant. His amber eyes are full of a light and moving smile. The small red mole in the bottom of his eyes also makes his elegance a little seductive.

Jiang Li drooped her eyes: "it's not the time."

"When was that?" He rarely gets aggressive.

"When Princess Yongning dies." Jiang Li raised her head and said firmly, "I'll take care of everything, and then I'll come to the door myself and let the Lord handle it."

Her eyes were clean, her tone mild but stubborn, obviously determined, not just talking. She has always been cunning, leaving herself three points of leeway in everything. This is the only thing that seems to be done by all means and regardless of the consequences.

Ji Xuan raised her eyebrows.

He said, "is that how you say it?"

"I have nothing to hide from my Lord." Jiang Li smiled, "it's useless to hide."

"You know current affairs very well," Ji Heng said, "and your mouth is sweet. There is no one in my staff who is more pleasing than you."

Jiang Li bent her eyes: "thank you for your praise."

When she laughed, she was very warm, just like a heartless and innocent cardamom girl. Ji Heng's deep meaning flashed in his eyes. He knew, of course not.

The girl, also wearing a mask, stood on the stage, painted with paint, so that people saw her smile and didn't know what the truth was hidden under the paint.

Nothing. Take your time. The truth will always be found.

He coughed softly and said, "you really want to know why the concubines are safe?"

Jiang Li said, "really."

Ji Heng: "why?"

"Royal secrets? Everyone wants to hear them." Jiang Li took it for granted.

Such a reason that could not be regarded as a reason made Ji Heng choke, and after a moment of silence, he said, "Li Bin is the man who became king."

Jiang Li was about to pick up the tea cup. Hearing that one of her subordinates was unstable, she almost overturned. Fortunately, Ji Xuan was quick eyed and quick handed. She grabbed her wrist so that she wouldn't overturn the tea cup and let the hot tea splash on her body.

His hands were cold and covered on his skin, as comfortable as jade. Jiang Li's brain had no reason to think of such an idea. Ji Xuan withdrew his hand, did not pay attention to Jiang Li's distraction, and only asked, "are you so surprised?"

Jiang Li looked at him blearily: "of course..."

Li Bin is a king!

Li Bin is a member of the Ji family. The Ji family and the Jiang family are in laws. Although the Jiang family and Cheng Wang are safe for the time being, they know that once Cheng Wang really wants to move that idea and succeeds, the Jiang family can't keep it. The Ji family actually took refuge in Cheng Wang? Jiang Yuanbai must not know this!

"The Ji family did not take refuge in Cheng Wang." Ji Chen seemed to be able to guess what she was thinking and said in time, "it was just Li Bin."

"Why?" Jiang Li said, "the Ji family doesn't know this?"

"You have dealt with the Ji family, and you should know the temperament of the Ji family," Ji Heng smiled with a hint of caustic irony, "when it comes to weighing the pros and cons, no one can match them."

"Li Bin has been in the palace for many years without children, and the Ji family has prepared other Ji family members to enter the palace." Ji Heng only said a word, and Jiang Li understood.

Although Li Bin was spoiled by Emperor Hong Xiao, she had not given birth to a prince for so many years. Even if she was spoiled again, she could not stand firm in the palace. Because of this, Li Bin was not proud of being spoiled. In the end, she could be called a docile temperament.

But the Ji family is not satisfied with this. If Li Bin cannot give birth to a prince and further consolidate his position, the Ji family cannot continue to move forward. The hearts of the people are not enough for snakes to swallow elephants. The Ji family plans to select some beautiful and intelligent girls from the clan to enter the palace. The concubines help one side and win the favor of emperor Hong Xiao. It is best to have children.

This seems to be for the sake of the overall situation, but it is very disadvantageous for Li Bin. One more beautiful girl to separate the emperor's favor, especially the idea of her own family.

Li Bin is sure to be unwilling.

"King Cheng knows that Li Bin is unwilling." Ji Xuan said, "he bewitched the concubines, and the concubines were deceived."
