Her Highness Doesn’t Want to Work Hard Anymore

The emperor was dubious about Feihe's words.

In his view, a person is dead and cannot be resurrected.

Otherwise, wouldn't the world be in chaos? !

However, the means that Master Feihe showed just now is enough to prove that he is not a person who talks nonsense, and he should have something to rely on to dare to say such things in front of the emperor.

That being the case, why trust him once?

Anyway, things have come to this point, where can the worst be?

The emperor said to Master Feihe with the mentality of treating a dead horse as a living horse doctor.

"If you can really save King Zhao, I will definitely reward you heavily."

Master Feihe bowed slightly: "Poverty must do his best to live up to His Majesty's expectations."

...

Master Feihe said that in order to save King Zhao, a ceremony must be held.

This ceremony will take three days, and outsiders are not allowed to enter the mourning hall until the ceremony is completed.

As for the things needed to hold the ceremony, Master Feihe listed them all.

After everything was ready, Master Feihe began to hold rituals in the mourning hall.

As the wife of King Zhao, Hua Manman was arranged to kneel and sit in the middle of the altar.

The emperor and Princess Ningyang stood by and watched.

Even the Empress Dowager came over to watch after hearing about it, wanting to see with her own eyes whether there is really a miracle of bringing the dead back to life in this world?

As for other idlers, they were all kicked out, and they were not allowed to enter the mourning hall without permission.

Immortal Feihe put away his mahogany sword, held a compass in one hand and a brass bell in the other, and kept circling around the coffin, muttering something.

Brass bells jingled, and the needle on the compass turned around.

He sometimes stopped and sometimes accelerated, and his movements were all kinds of strange, which made everyone present at a loss.

At first, the Queen Mother was able to watch patiently and focusedly, but then her concentration gradually became slack, and sleepiness swept up.

She covered her lower lip with her sleeve and yawned quietly.

The emperor noticed her strangeness and said that if she was sleepy, she could go back to rest.

The Empress Dowager felt that this ceremony was really boring, and she didn't want to read any more, so she nodded and prepared to leave.

When passing by Princess Ningyang, the queen mother paused and asked politely.

"This ceremony will last for a long time, should Ning Yang go to Bengong's place to rest for a while?"

Princess Ningyang is the elder sister of the first emperor, and she is four years older than the Queen Mother in terms of age.

On weekdays, the two sides rarely communicate, and the relationship is very alienated.

At this time, the queen mother just asked casually, she knew that Princess Ningyang would not agree.

as predicted.

Princess Ningyang first thanked the queen mother for her concern, and then politely and politely rejected the other party's proposal.

The queen mother didn't say anything more, and left the mourning hall with the maids and eunuchs.

In the afternoon, the emperor had something to do and left the mourning hall temporarily.

Only Princess Ningyang is still guarding in the mourning hall.

With her last sliver of hope, she hoped that this ceremony would be a success.

Hope her grandson can really come back to life.

The ceremony did not come to an end until the sun went down and the sky turned dark.

Princess Ningyang finally couldn't bear it anymore, she left the mourning hall temporarily and went back to rest.

Meals were delivered from the imperial dining room.

They set up a small table in the side hall next to the mourning hall, and the table was full of meals.

These are all prepared for Huamanman.

Master Feihe didn't stay with her, and he was arranged to go to another place for dinner and rest.

Hua Manman sat down at the table and said to the maid standing beside her.

"You go about your business, I don't like to be around when I eat."

The maid bowed slightly: "The maidservant is going out first, if you have any orders, just say hello, the maidservant will be here whenever you call."

When the maid left, Hua Manman was the only one left in the room.

She immediately stood up and ran to the coffin, pushing the lid of the coffin away with great effort.

"My lord, let's eat."

Li Ji jumped out of the coffin.

He was holding a skin pouch in his hand, which was originally filled with chicken blood.

Now the chicken blood is gone, only the empty skin remains.

That's right, the reason why the coffin oozes blood before is because Li Ji is pouring chicken blood out.

He aimed the spout of the skin bag at the coffin seam, and squeezed it out little by little. Bright red chicken blood overflowed from the coffin seam. From the outside, it looked like the coffin was oozing blood by itself.

Li Ji threw away the empty skin and moved his hands and feet.

It's hard for him to stay in the coffin for so long with such long limbs.

The two sat down at the table.

Since it was still the mourning period, the table was full of vegetarian dishes.

Rapeseed flowers have not appeared these days, so there is no such thing as rapeseed oil.

The edible oils that can be served on the table are all refined from animal fats.

For example, lard, butter, sheep oil and the like.

They are all meaty, and must not appear on the dining table during the mourning period.

In other words, the dishes they eat now not only have no meat, but also no oil or water at all.

Hua Manman ate the tasteless food, and missed the delicious rapeseed oil in his heart.

Even if you don't have canola oil, peanut oil will do!

Thinking of this, Hua Manman decided to go back and think about how to make peanut oil.

Peanuts are available these days, but no one uses them for oil.

It just so happens that peanuts are planted on her farm, and the peanuts she produces can be used for oil extraction by her.

With peanut oil, she can eat delicious fried chicken.

Thinking of the taste of fried chicken, she couldn't help swallowing.

Hua Manman was completely immersed in the fantasy of delicious food, and did not notice the strange look on the man's face.

Li Ji heard what Hua Manman was thinking, and there were a few words he didn't understand.

For example, rapeseed and rapeseed oil.

He has never heard of it, and he doesn't know what it is and what it is used for.

And peanut oil, she thought.

He didn't know that peanuts could be used to extract oil.

The most important thing is that the things she thought of were not something that an ordinary Second Miss of the Bo's House could think of.

Then think of all the strange things that happened to her before.

Li Ji couldn't help but doubt her origin.

Li Ji thought a lot in his heart, but asked calmly.

"Aren't you going to eat?"

Hua Manman came to his senses. waved his hands.

"I'm not hungry, you should eat first."

She pushed her bowl and chopsticks in front of King Zhao, and said that she had never used this pair of bowls and chopsticks, they were clean, and he could use them with confidence.

Because the dinner was prepared for Hua Manman alone, the imperial dining room only prepared a pair of bowls and chopsticks for her.

This is the mourning hall, and there is no way to find a second pair of bowls and chopsticks.

Hua Manman can only let King Zhao eat first, and she will eat after he finishes eating.

Fortunately, Hua Manman is not obsessed with cleanliness, and it is not difficult for her to accept a pair of dishes and chopsticks in turn.

Li Ji picked up the bowl and filled a bowl of soup.

It is very light cabbage tofu soup.

He scooped up a spoonful of soup with a spoon, handed it to Hua Manman's mouth, and signaled her to open her mouth.

Hua Manman hurriedly said: "You can eat first, don't worry about the concubine's body."
