The shopkeeper said with a smile, "Guest, we have a private room upstairs, you can sit down and try it, and buy whatever you like."

"Alright." Li Yan responded, and followed the shopkeeper upstairs. Seeing that Qinghe was still following behind, she said, "Go to the teahouse opposite and ask for a pot of tea, cardamom sprigs in early February."

Qinghe raised a face full of question marks, what does this mean?

The shopkeeper kindly pointed out, "What your son wants is tea that has been steeped to the third level."

"Oh, my lord, wait a moment, the servant girl will go right away." After speaking, he left the candied fruit shop like flying under his feet.

When they went upstairs, the shopkeeper bowed down in front of Li Yanhui, and said respectfully, "Qiu Ma met you, Young Master."

Before Li Yan returned to work, he helped him up and asked, "Why did you come to the capital? Where are Tang Juli and Zhao Feng?"

Qiu Ma looked at Li Yan's return, her eyes immediately became wet, and she said, "Zhao Feng sent a message that the young master is in trouble, so I hurried over from Huainan. However, the young master has been in the palace, and we can't get in. I had no choice but to open a shop here and come here to inquire about you. Everyone is alright, but Brother Tang, he is no longer here!" Then he lowered his head and wiped his tears with his sleeve.

Li Yan recalled that when the palace changed that day, Wang Yunqi led someone to throw Tang Juli in front of her. Tang Juli didn't move at that time, and he might have been killed by that time.

He took a deep breath and said, "It's all my fault. It was my hot-headedness and righteousness that hurt everyone! At that time, I should have listened to his advice. Maybe things will not be like this now." .”

"My lord, don't blame yourself," Qiu Ma said, "We are all willing to serve you."

Li Yanhui was worried that it would be inconvenient for Qinghe to come back in a while, so she hurriedly said, "Let me make a long story short, I have a letter here, you will send it to Dao Village in a while, hand it to Furong, and then bring back her letter, don't let outsiders in the middle Intervene."

Qiu Ma took the letter, nodded and said, "Yes, my lord, I will do it myself."

Li Yan replied, "Notify Zhao Feng that they should not enter the palace during this time. Now I am safe, and I will come out of the palace to see you if I have a chance."

Qiu Ma agreed.

Finally, Li Yan asked again, "Family, family, are they alright?"

Qiu Ma knew who he was asking, and said, "Everything is fine at home. Now the third girl is taking care of everything at home. The harvest in the fields has always been good. They go to sea every three months. Everyone is living well. Very good, but Father Shen misses her husband very much... uh, Mr. Xiaoqiu." Qiu Ma realized that he had just mentioned the word "husband", and Li Yan froze when he returned, and quickly changed his words.

"They don't know yet?" Li Yan asked in a low voice.

Qiu Ma shook his head, looked at Li Yan and replied, "We didn't dare to mention it if we didn't receive the order from the young master."

Li Yanhui closed her eyes to ease the pain in her heart, and then said, "Then keep it a secret for a while, if you can keep it a day, when I really can't hide it anymore, I will go and ask them for their sins!"

"My lord..." Seeing Li Yanhui's pained appearance, Qiu Ma was also very sad.At the beginning, he had seen the happiness and affection of these two people with his own eyes, but now there was only one person left, which made him, an outsider, a little unacceptable, let alone the person involved, the young master still didn't know what kind of suffering he was in.

"My lord, the slaves have been brought back!" Qinghe's voice came before he arrived.I saw her holding the tea tray in one hand, walking like flying, and went up to the second floor in two or three steps, but not a single drop of tea in the tray spilled out.

When Qiu Ma and Li Yan met again, they couldn't help being surprised, what a handsome skill!

Qinghe put the tea on the table in front of Li Yanhui with a smile, and saw that there were already a lot of candied pastries on the table, exuding a tempting aroma, and he could see clearly and straighten his eyes.

When Li Yan saw her again, she couldn't help sighing secretly, so what if the kung fu is good?After all, she is a teenage girl, and her weaknesses are really easy to deal with.

He said lightly, "These pastries are not bad, I'll pack one of each and take it away."

"Yes, young master." Qiu Ma replied, and went down to prepare.

When Li Yan came back, she ate a piece of mung bean cake with fresh tea, glanced at Qinghe, and asked, "Do you want to eat it too?"

Qing He hurriedly nodded, suddenly seemed to think of something, busy shook his head again.

"Don't be nervous, it's easy if you want to eat." Li Yan smiled back, "One piece of cake for one question."

Qinghe was a little hesitant. Although she really wanted to eat, she was afraid that Mr. Li would ask some questions that she couldn't answer. It was really tangled!

Li Yanhui seemed to see her doubts, and said, "Don't worry, these are small problems, and I won't embarrass you. Just treat it as a chat, for example, how old are you this year?"

Qinghe's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he asked, "Is this the first question? This servant is sixteen this year." As he spoke, his hand was already reaching for the plate of mung bean cake.

Li Yan nodded back, "Then how long have you been learning martial arts?"

"ten years."

"What about your family? How did you enter the palace? Why haven't I seen you in the palace before?"

"Orphan, the emperor summoned him to the palace, and he only entered the palace not long ago."

A small plate of mung bean cakes was only four or five yuan. In just two or three sentences, all those mung bean cakes entered Qing He's stomach. Try the Furong Cake.

Li Yanhui sniffed the tea in his hand, smiled slightly, looking extremely gentle, "You know Tian Ada, do you know Ruan Fu?"

Without even thinking about it, Qing He took a piece of hibiscus pastry and handed it to his mouth, nodded and said, "Yes, he used to be the emperor's housekeeper outside the palace."

Ah, hibiscus cake is so delicious!

"Where's Cui Chang?"

"I know her, she is the queen's personal maid."

"Where's Lin Qiao?"

"I also know him, he is the emperor..."

Qinghe, who was stuffing the last piece of hibiscus pastry into his mouth, suddenly stopped, staring wide-eyed at Li Yanhui, and slowly put down the hibiscus pastry in his hand, tightly pursing his lips stained with pastry crumbs.

I remember that when the emperor assigned her to Mr. Li, he once told her, "You must be careful when you serve him by his side in the future. He is a very thoughtful person. He never shows his thoughts in front of outsiders. You have to be careful." Your own words and deeds!"

At the beginning, she had sworn to promise, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, slaves will never make mistakes!"

Who would have expected that she would say the wrong thing so soon!Qinghe now has an annoyed expression on his face, his intestines are green with regret, and he wished he could bite off his tongue.

Li Yan looked back at her loveless appearance, and smiled, "What are you doing? I was just asking casually, it's getting late, go back to the palace."

As he spoke, he went downstairs first, and Qing He hurriedly followed behind. When he went out, he took the packaged candied pastry from shopkeeper Qiu.

All the way back to the palace, Qinghe was uneasy, watching Li Yanhui's expression from time to time.But from that cold facial expression, she really couldn't see any information, as if she just saw a walking iceman.

As soon as Li Yan entered the Shenghua Palace, Feng Nansheng came back.

"Where did you go today?" Feng Nansheng asked with a smile. As soon as he entered the room, he saw the pastry on the table and went to pick it up. "Bought a pastry? You actually like this too?"

Li Yan looked back at him, hummed lightly, and said, "This is Ming Hui's favorite food before."

Just a simple sentence, Feng Nansheng couldn't send the sweet-scented osmanthus cake that had already been put to his mouth, so he threw the cake back on the table with great difficulty, feeling a little angry, and sat down on the stool .

Seeing that the situation was not right, Qing He hurriedly led a few court ladies and retreated. She was afraid that if she stayed here, she would be implicated and suffer unwarranted disasters.

Feng Nansheng felt extremely tired, he was busy with political affairs all day, he only thought of Li Yan returning here to find some comfort, but who knows, what he found was a thorn, a poisonous thorn that made him drenched with blood .

"Li Yanhui, can we get along well?"

Li Yanhui also sat at the table, took the piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake thrown aside by Feng Nansheng, looked at it carefully, and said, "The sweet-scented osmanthus cake in the world is almost the same, but the taste is very different. Sweet, some fragrant, some strong, some light, everyone can find the one that suits them. But if it is not suitable, even if it has reached the mouth, it is difficult to swallow. Your Majesty, what do you think? Woolen cloth?"

Feng Nansheng looked at him, with obvious pain in his eyes, he grabbed the osmanthus cake and stuffed it into his mouth without saying a word, and said, "I only know that as long as it is what I like, it is suitable for me. Yes!" It's just that he ate too fast, and when his mood fluctuated greatly, so Feng Nansheng choked very unfortunately.

"Cough cough cough...cough cough..."

Seeing this, Li Yan took the teapot slowly, poured a cup of tea and handed it over.

Feng Nansheng took it and gulped it down. Before swallowing a sip of tea, Li Yan asked back, "Your Majesty, what is your relationship with Lin Qiao?"

Feng Nansheng's complexion changed drastically, and with a real "poof!", all the tea in the product was sprayed out.It's just that this time, he choked even more, coughing non-stop, wishing he could cough for breath.

Li Yan saw that his face was flushed from coughing, and he became silent a few times, so he sighed, but he couldn't help himself.So, he called out, "Come here..."

Feng Nansheng, who was coughing badly, hurriedly stopped him, he didn't want others to look at him with such a shameful appearance.

Li Yan shook her head back, she still cared about these face problems at any time, seeing that his coughing didn't stop, after all she couldn't help herself, so she leaned over and patted him on the back.

After a long time, the coughing gradually subsided, Feng Nansheng grabbed Li Yanhui's hand, his eyes were slightly red due to coughing, he looked straight at the person in front of him, and said, "Li Yanhui, I am no longer I'm asking for nothing else, I just ask you to stay in this palace and accompany me, okay? I promise, I won't force you to do anything, you can do whatever you want in this palace, okay?"

"Why are you doing this?" Li Yan withdrew her hand and said, "You are the emperor, the lord of a country, marrying a wife and having children, and extending the succession of children is the proper way. Do you want to ruin the Eastern Zhou Dynasty by making such nonsense? "
