Although Queen Shi's dress is a little out of place among a group of ladies in elegant dresses, there are also flattering people who compliment the queen's safflower hairpin and flattery. They also have to learn this style of hairpin.

     

    Mian Tang felt that there was nothing funny about Queen Shi's dress like this. Although she was dressed out of style, in Miantang's opinion, she was no different from the girl who loved beauty but couldn't follow the rules on the North Street of Lingquan Town.

    If you look at it in detail, her background is not as good as that of a queen, and there is nothing to laugh at others.

    But she wanted to praise the queen for her beautiful dress, and she was a little embarrassed, so she catered to the theme of the queen's tea party, and tasted the cakes that were presented.

    It's a different experience to eat. I don't know what the stuffing in the cake is made of, but it has a faint milky taste, and the mouth is very soft. Miantang couldn't stop eating, so she couldn't help but praise it.

    When Queen Shi heard it, she was intrigued and asked Huaisang County Master what taste he had.

    Miantang took another bite seriously: "This milk taste is not fishy, ​​and it tastes sweet, like cheese made from the milk of the big tail sheep that only exists in the northwest. There is also the taste of mulberries, sour and sweet, and it is not greasy."

    Just now, when someone praised Queen Shi's dress, the queen looked like she was lacking in interest, but now listening to Huaisang County Master eating the recipe, she was very excited: "This is all If you can eat it, it can be seen that the county owner also knows how to eat!"

    Mian Tang smiled and said: "The queen can try the milk skin made with fat goat milk next time, wrap it with starch and fry it, and sprinkle some sesame seeds, it can be brushed and eaten with black tea. The most delicious."

    Empress Shi's eyes lit up when she heard it, and she instructed the female officer beside her to write it down and try it out when she had time. If it tastes good, she will also give it to the emperor.

      But later, Miantang and the Queen's hot food chats made her salivate.

    The older ladies are okay, the younger ones are just delicious years, and the cakes that Queen Shi ordered people to bring out are indeed delicious and unique, so one by one Gradually, I couldn't keep my mouth shut.

    Although this tea party did not have poetry and poetry, and did not show off their talents, but just relying on one "eat" to support from beginning to end, it can be regarded as the beginning of the tea banquet in Dayan Palace .

    Of course, the support of Huaisang County's head is a big part of it. Because of the dim sum category, most of the styles in the south were originally. When she was in Lingquan Town, Cui Xingzhou really bought a lot of dim sum for her to eat.

    Every time the food tastes good, Mama Li will study and make it again, so Miantang also has a little way. So Queen Shi's carefully prepared delicacies have a bosom friend, and Miantang's smart and witty explanation, and then narrate the allusions inside, and immediately it seems that a plate of cakes has gone to a new level.

    Princess Jiaxuan was reserved at first, but she was greedy after being driven by Miantang's vivid explanation.

    Older people have trouble digesting and eat a little too much, so they can't help complaining to Miantang: "Don't talk about it, I don't eat as much in a year as I do today."

    These words caused everyone to laugh, and they all said that Princess Jiaxuan had spoken her heart, and if you eat it, the newly made clothes in your house will have to let go of the waist size.

     Empress Shi smiled and said, "I was also worried that Aunt Huang would not be able to restrain herself, so I just invited the maid on the side to make hawthorn tea for digestion, would Aunt Huang drink some?"

    Princess Jiaxuan naturally thanked the queen.

    At this moment, a palace maid came over with a teapot and poured tea for Princess Jiaxuan, but when she stopped, she accidentally poured the hot tea aside from Miantang's On her legs, her light-colored skirt was also stained with a large piece.

    The palace maid was so frightened that she knelt down and pleaded guilty, Miantang smiled nonchalantly: "It's okay, I'll be done in a while."

    After Queen Shi reprimanded the palace maid, she said to Miantang: "I will let the female officer lead you to change your clothes, otherwise it will not look like it will be dirty."

    For a tea banquet like this in the palace, the ladies always bring three or four sets of dresses to change, just in case.

    Miantang is no exception. Li's mother specially prepared a small suitcase for her to carry. Now that the queen spoke, she was not easy to refuse, so she could only go to the courtyard of the side hall to change clothes with the female official who led the way.

    Miantang changed quickly, and then went out to ask the female officer to lead her back.

    But when she walked out of the door, there was a tall and thin person standing in the courtyard. Miantang fixed her eyes and saw that it was the current saint, Liu Hao.

    He was looking at a Huaishang flower planted in the courtyard, and when Miantang stood at the door and refused to lean forward, he said, "This is your favorite flower, so I ordered someone to be in the palace. Every courtyard in China is planted, thinking that when you enter the palace, no matter where you go, you can see it."

    Mian Tang glanced at the guard standing at the door of the courtyard, knowing that if Liu Hao didn't open her mouth to let her go, she would not be able to get out. So he bowed his knees and asked An Dao: "Long live Qi, the queen is still waiting in the front hall, I don't want to delay here for too long."

    Liu Hao walked over and reached out to help her up, but Miantang knelt down and moved her back, so she avoided it.

    Liu Hao was angered by her dodging: "Liu Miantang, is your heart made of iron? Then I found a man to marry. I thought you were disheartened and wanted to live a normal life. In addition, I was also uncertain at the time, so naturally I would not force you to live with me. But who would have thought that you would It was talking about marriage with the King of Huaiyang! What did you think? Could it be that you disliked the wealth and glory I was not as good as him, so you followed him?"

    If Liu Hao was just the old Yangshan Ziyu, Miantang turned around and left, not talking nonsense with him at all. But now, he is the emperor of Dayan. If she annoys him, I am afraid that Princess Jiaxuan will not be able to take her out of the palace gate today.

    So Miantang just answered honestly: "Long live, you say these things, I really don't know. I also heard about my uncle later, and then I realized that I was once on the Yangshan Mountain. After living for a while, I fell into the water and lost my memory, I really can't remember clearly..."

    Liu Hao was so angry that his eyes turned red, but when he heard this, he was stunned! After a long while, he asked, "What did you say... you lost your memory?"

    Miantang nodded honestly and said: "I only remember the episode when I got married to the capital, I really can't remember what happened after that, and I still have headaches now, so long live really don't mention the past, now You are the son of the emperor, whether you are extremely prosperous, the queen is virtuous, and the prince is intelligent, it is really enviable..."

    Liu Hao couldn't listen to her compliments, and said tightly: "So when you saw me in Qingzhou, you didn't know who I was? Then you...why did you get along with Cui Xingzhou? "

    Liu Miantang couldn't say anything about Cui Xingzhou's cheating of marriage, but said: "When I climbed up the mountain, the tendons of my hands and feet were torn off. It was he who saved me and healed me. Without him, I would have died in the river, so there is nothing wrong with making promises."

    Liu Hao heard the truth one after another today that he didn't know before, and only felt his head buzzing, and stood dumbfounded: "Are you seriously injured? Who hurt you?"

    Miantang saw Liu Hao's reaction and knew that he seemed to be really ignorant, so it should be his subordinates, or someone did it without him.

    But even if Miantang knew about it, she wouldn't tell Liu Hao. His old Yangshan tribes are all heroes of the founding of the country, how could Liu Hao convict them for nothing?

     

    So she honestly said again: "This... I really don't remember. But this is not very good, now you are the emperor, and the king of Huaiyang is also the minister of the humerus of Long Live, assisting Long live the country, please don't stick to the past... I really have to go back."

    However, Liu Hao squatted and knelt in front of her, tears of pain pouring out of Qing Jun's eyes: "I...I really thought at that time that you were annoying me, Don't want to see me... If I had known that at that time you had amnesia and loneliness, how could I... how could I keep you by his side... What kind of life-saving benefactor? He also deceived you at that time, use you to catch Yangshan's children ?"

    Liu Miantang pretended not to know what Liu Hao was talking about, and only lowered her head and said, "I have signed a marriage contract with King Huaiyang, and I am the daughter-in-law of the Cui family. Don't be embarrassed, if I stay in this yard for a long time and cause others to misunderstand, it will really hinder Long Live's reputation."

    Liu Ziyu didn't know this joint before, thinking that Liu Miantang had forgotten him on purpose.

    Now that Miantang opened up, he immediately understood. What an arrogant person Miantang is, he will definitely not live with Cui Xingzhou unmarried! And Cui Xingzhou also happened to be surnamed Cui. He was the ninth eldest in the family, and he was similar to Miantang's former fiance in the capital.

    At that time, Miantang was a business woman wholeheartedly. If Cui Xingzhou hadn't lied to her, how could she be commensurate with Cui Jiu and his wife?

    Now Liu Hao is full of remorse like Jiang Tao. If he knew at that time that Miantang had been deceived, he would never have allowed her to stay by Cui Xingzhou's side.

    And who made her hands and feet? Thinking of the situation in which Miantang was persecuted and was thrown into the river, Liu Hao's heart was surging for a while. In the study in Yangshan, the feeling of powerlessness in the vast world and not knowing where to go in the future once again. Attack the heart.

    At that time, he naively thought that as long as he ascended to the throne of God and restored his true identity, he could have a good grasp of the future of him and Miantang.

    How do you know that one step is wrong, but you are wrong. He actually made such a big mistake in Miantang's body.

    Mo said Miantang lost her memory, even if she remembers the past, she probably won't forgive herself and return to her side...

    Thinking of this, he imagined that he would hug Miantang tightly as he did before, and cry bitterly. But Miantang's evasive figure and the vigilant look in his eyes deeply hurt his heart.

    He didn't say anything anymore, turned around slumped, walked slowly towards the courtyard gate, and disappeared outside the scarlet gate.

    Seeing him gone, Mian Tang finally let out a sigh of relief.

    He also walked out of the courtyard with his maid, Fangxie. Before taking a few steps, I heard the laughter and laughter of the ladies gradually approaching.

     Turning a corner, I saw Queen Shi leading the group of ladies talking and laughing. Miantang hurried over to greet Queen Shi.

    One of the ladies jokingly said: "If you don't come back, the cakes are not interesting. Fortunately, a new pot of green chrysanthemum was opened in the queen's flower garden. Take us to enjoy it. You too Just keep up, don't be left behind."

    Miantang smiled and followed the ladies to the flower garden.

    After viewing the flowers, the ladies bid farewell to the queen and prepared to leave the palace.

    Miantang also followed Princess Jiaxuan out of the palace.

     

    Princess Jiaxuan looked at it and said, "The county owner's fiancé is very considerate and is waiting for you here!"

    Mian Tang said goodbye to the princess with a smile, then walked towards Cui Xingzhou, looked at his face slightly reddened by the sun, and bowed: "Your Highness is here to do business in the palace? "

    Cui Xingzhou nodded and said solemnly, "Come and pick up your fiancee."

    Miantang knew that he was worried about entering the palace, so he waited in front of the palace gate, but what did it sound like? Don't be afraid of being laughed at if you spread it out! But she still couldn't help feeling sweet in her heart, and only smiled and got into the carriage with Cui Xingzhou.

     

    Cui Xingzhou listened, silent. He didn't know about the past of Miantang and Liu Ziyu, but Liu Ziyu must have never forgotten his old love for Miantang.

      But once I really achieved something, I regretted the mistakes of the year and wanted to make up for it.

    If Miantang didn't marry him, but was still in Xizhou, she should be forced to enter the palace now.

    Although this is all the imagination of King Huaiyang, but when he thinks that Miantang might reconcile with Liu Hao, his heart is particularly uncomfortable.

    Mian Tang saw Cui Xingzhou's stinky face, and naturally knew that he was swishing vinegar, so he had to think about other things, which led him to think elsewhere.

    But Cui Xingzhou was not fooled, and said: "I think that the queen is also a pimp, you should not answer her invitation in the future!"

    But Miantang really didn't think Queen Shi was trying to help Wan Sui, thinking that if Liu Hao was still pestering her at that time, those ladies would have to pass by the yard when they were enjoying the flowers. Dispersed the long live private meeting.

      It's really not that simple.

    But Cui Xingzhou was right, in the future, it would be better for her to stay out of the palace gate, so from the second day after leaving the palace, Miantang began to pretend to be sick, and cut down on going out to socialize, lest Was summoned to the palace again by the queen.

    How can the long live harem be empty for too long? It didn't take long for Miantang to hear Cui Xingzhou say that the old members of Yangshan started to fill the harem for Long Live by Zhang Luo, but the Empress Dowager chose a few quite beautiful women to enter the palace as candidates.

      For a time, the new emperor's harem was open, and there were countless delicate flowers all day long. If Queen Shi was holding a tea party, I am afraid that he would have to bake a few more plates of cakes.

    When the ladies who visited Miantang came to the palace to chat, they talked about the new concubines. It is said that when they entered the palace, they all started as concubines.

    However, there is one who is not small. It is said that she is the daughter of General Sun, the savior of Long Live. She has always vowed not to marry. Palace, canonized as Concubine Yun.

    It is said that she also has some friendship with Queen Shi, and they have always been called sisters.

    Mian Tang guessed that the person who entered the palace and received the favor of the Second Sage should be Sun Yunniang. She was curious about whether the Queen Stone really regarded Sun Yunniang as a sister?

   

    However, Cui Xingzhou felt that Liu Miantang was no longer able to act as a demon in his palace.

    It turned out that Miantang felt that it was absurd to be covered with Wang Ye before marriage. But Wang Ye didn't know how to slack off. If he really made a big belly, then she would really be unable to raise her head in front of Cui Xingzhou's mother in the future.

    So after a serious discussion with Cui Xingzhou, Miantang closed the door and window of his room every night, and asked Fang Xie and Bicao to take turns to sleep under his bed, lest the lord Touched in erratically.

    I am used to eating, but someone suddenly removes the plate, and everyone is unhappy.

    Huaiyang King's face was also stinking all day, watching Miantang always entangle her hands and feet, and at the same time, he was also stepping up arrangements for returning to Zhenzhou.

    When he reorganized the army, he left a hand. The children of Zhenzhou are counted as militia, and now the war is over. The King of Huaiyang waved his pen, only pretending that there were no soldiers under his command who were "disarmed and returned to the fields".

    If it was calculated in this way, he would have to hand over very few troops.

    The Ministry of War is of course unwilling to give up, and has been entangled with the King of Huaiyang. However, it was also God who helped the King of Huaiyang. The floods occurred in Dongzhou. The local farmers who lost their fields and houses and could not afford food gathered in a rebellion. They attacked the government, killed the officials of the court, and robbed the official warehouse. bigger.

    This place is not very far from Zhenzhou. If you send someone to suppress the bandits, it will be a bit far-fetched, so Cui Xingzhou took the initiative to ask Ying to calm down the disaster for Long Live.

    The turmoil in Dongzhou is getting worse and worse. If it cannot be subsided, Dayan's granary will have problems. Moreover, when going into battle to kill the enemy, one must always have one's wounds and forgets.

      Let her live in Beijing.

    This is the method used by the emperors of the past dynasties. The generals who send troops to fight must keep their families in the capital as a pledge.

    It's just that the King of Huaiyang is a hereditary king and has his own fief. It is a bit troublesome to ask his family to come. When he was asked to lead the army, no one thought that he would come back alive, and the emperor who died early did not call the concubine to the capital.

    Nowadays, the head of Huaisang County is the fiancée of the King of Huaiyang, and it makes sense to keep her as a pledge.

    But when Long Live announced the decree, it was discovered that the county head of Huaisang was no longer in the capital. According to the King of Huaiyang, the head of Huaisang County was intolerant of the soil and water in the capital and vomited frequently, so he left Beijing early in the morning and returned to Zhenzhou. As for when she can come back, it all depends on whether her body can endure it or not.

    Liu Miantang is not a minister of the imperial court, so she naturally does not need to report to the imperial court. Even if she was secretly sent away by King Huaiyang, Emperor Kaixuan couldn't pick out any mistakes.

    What's more, there is also bad news that Gyeongju, west of Dongju, has been attacked by the rebels, and the bandit suppression cannot be delayed.

    The Emperor Kaixuan had just ascended the throne, and his foundation was not stable, so he could only let Cui Xingzhou set out to suppress the bandits first, and then carefully consider the matter.

    Although it was very difficult to suppress the bandits, Cui Xingzhou still went back to Zhenzhou first. He hasn't returned home for a long time, and I heard that the concubine has added a little white hair that misses her son.

    He sent troops to Dongzhou to pass by his house, so he naturally wanted to go home and have a look. What's more, he also brought back a delicate fiancée this time, and he must explain it to his mother properly before he can send troops with confidence.

    Although his fiancée returned to Zhenzhou early, she returned to the house on North Street. It is said that she wanted to take care of the business of the store in her hands, and she did not rashly go to the Huaiyang Palace.

    So after traveling day and night, Cui Xingzhou naturally went straight to Lingquan Town to see if Liu Miantang was waiting for him obediently.

    Liu Miantang saw that he didn't go back to the palace to see her mother, but came to see herself first, and only said that he was ridiculous. If the concubine found out about this behavior, wouldn't it be a challenge?

      unstoppable. As long as you quench your thirst, you can return home safely.

    How can Miantang resist him? The oath of not living together before marriage was torn apart again. The courtyard walls of the small house on North Street are slightly less soundproof, which is really spring.

    It is really a big joy that the palace of Zhenzhou can finally welcome the prince back. The senior executive received the order of the concubine early in the morning, and greeted the prince with colorful lights.

      The concubine couldn't bear it anymore, so she ordered someone to ask where the prince was.

    After half a day, someone reported that it was the prince who stayed in Lingquan Town for a while, and it seemed that it had been a night.

    Chu Lian brought her daughter to the mansion today and waited to welcome the prince back. Hearing this, he frowned and said dissatisfiedly: "Tianfei, do you think I have lied to you? Say yes. That child Zhou quietly raised the outer room in Beijie! You didn't believe it before! I heard that when he went on an expedition, the outer room followed him, and the Beijie house was always empty... Whose family girl is this? , so hooking the man, how can there be any reason to pester him and not let him come to see his mother?"
