I was a princess in ancient times

After the carriage entered the door, it went straight to the front yard. Ji Xinxue tentatively put down her raised foot.

It's okay to just make a fake appearance of stepping on the injured foot, as long as you dare to use force, the painful Ji Xinxue burst into tears, so that Jiawang waited impatiently outside the carriage. Seeing the unshed tears in the corners of Ji Xinxue's eyes.

Ji Xinxue thought 'it's over', and subconsciously raised a flattering smile, hoping that King Jia would show mercy because he was already a wounded person.

Following the change of Ji Xinxue's expression, the tears were no longer content to be restrained in the eye sockets, and silently slid down the side of the face.

King Jia was caught off guard when he saw Ji Xinxue was so wronged that he hid in the carriage and cried, but subconsciously smiled when he saw him.

"What's going on here?"

In his impression, Ji Xinxue is not a person who will be wronged silently. Could it be that he is wrong?

Ji Xinxue knew she couldn't escape, a faint guilt flashed in her eyes, she tried to make a final struggle, and whispered, "When I was in Hanzhuyuan, I accidentally sprained my ankle."

He didn't lie, at most he omitted something.

Ji Xinxue mainly felt that the reason for his ankle sprain was too hard to explain.

If he was pushed down by Cui Qingzhi, or had his ankle sprained in a fight with Cui Qingzhi, he would definitely sue King Jia without hesitation, but he sprained his ankle to avoid Cui Qingzhi.

To Ji Xinxue's surprise, King Jia didn't make things difficult for him, but just stared at him for a while, and then reached out to hug him out of the carriage.

Neither laughed at him for being stupid, nor asked him why he sprained his ankle.

Ji Xinxue was overjoyed, and immediately rushed towards King Jia, and said with a smile, "Aye, what is the happy event today? I heard it just now, and Aye allowed me to have a drink with you."

Jia Wang secretly gritted his teeth gradually, and stretched out his fingers to point at Ji Xinxue's forehead, "You have injuries on your body, what wine do you drink? I will reward Song Nian to drink it for you, and you watch from the side."

After finishing speaking, King Jia hugged Ji Xinxue in his arms, turned around and crossed the curtain that Song Nian had drawn up, and strode towards the flower hall.

Ji Xinxue carefully observed Jia Wang's expression, and secretly analyzed whether she could have even the slightest hope of drinking.

The wine Jia Wang mentioned was fruit wine, which was brewed by Ji Xinxue.

Ji Xinxue's original intention was to make fruit juice, but she wasted a lot of money but never succeeded.

Strictly speaking, the juice made by Ji Xinxue is not a failure, after all, the juice is hard to describe after all.

Ji Xinxue was unwilling to give up easily, tried all the ways he could think of to save the juice, and finally thought of combining wine and juice to make fruit wine.

The taste of the fruit wine finally did not disappoint Ji Xinxue.

Sweet and sour, it not only retains the unique fragrance of the fruit, but also suppresses the strange taste of wine, which is regarded as a low-matching drink by Ji Xinxue.

After the success of the fruit wine, everyone around Ji Xinxue immediately liked him, from Jiawang, Zhong Niangzi, Si Niangzi and others, down to Bijuan and Caishi.

Anyone who has tasted fruit wine, there is no one who doesn't like Ji Xinxue's fruit wine.

Before Ji Xinxue had time to be happy, her home was ransacked by King Jia.All the fruit wine in the Baimo Courtyard was taken away by Songnian, and the place where the fruit wine was originally placed was turned into a whole box of various clothes and jewelry.

Jiawang's reason was very legitimate, he was afraid that Ji Xinxue would not be able to control her at a young age, and would become an alcoholic from then on.

Sadly, Ji Xinxue stayed up all night, wrote down the process of making fruit wine on paper, and combined her unclear memory and rich imagination to list several ways to try to purify the wine.

He took two things to find King Jia, trying to redeem his fruit wine, but unfortunately he only redeemed two small altars.

There are only two small altars of fruit wine, and we must beware of the fourth lady who has become a drunkard.

It is true that the listener is sad, and the hearer sheds tears.

After finally hearing that King Jia let him drink, which was not in the inventory of Baimo Academy, Ji Xinxue was really unwilling to give up easily.

King Jia ignored Ji Xinxue's pleading eyes, he put Ji Xinxue on the padded chair, took off Ji Xinxue's shoes and socks himself, "Is the injury serious, what does the doctor say?"

Ji Xinxue answered honestly, "It's not heavy, it's just a sprained ankle. The doctor said to take medicine on time, and I can walk normally in three to five days."

After hearing what Ji Xinxue said, King Jia didn't remove the bandage on Ji Xinxue's ankle.

He nodded, put Ji Xinxue's feet on the stool brought by the servant, went to wash his hands, and sat down on the other side of Ji Xinxue.

"Aye hasn't said yet, what kind of happy event is there today that makes me so happy." Ji Xinxue was still thinking about fruit wine but because of her weak leg, she didn't dare to ask King Jia for a drink, and could only remind King Jia of something happy.

I hope that Jia Wang's mood will improve again and give him another chance.

King Jia saw through Ji Xinxue's careful thinking at a glance, and said with a smile, "Today, Situ, Sikong and many courtiers jointly signed a letter again, asking the sage to allow the kings to join the Six Parts experience."

"It's done? Where is Aye going?" Ji Xinxue's eyes lit up suddenly.

When Emperor Yanguang allowed King Li, King Jia and King Xiang to enter the court to listen to the government, everyone thought that Emperor Yanguang had already begun to consider the candidate for the crown prince.

Although the courtiers did not dare to blatantly stand in line immediately after the Yiwang and Zhenwang buildings rose and collapsed, but those with ideas and courage would still use various covert methods to contact the kings.

During that time, all kinds of invitations and gift lists flew to the palaces of the princes like snowflakes, and finally disappeared without exception.

The kings were more afraid of Emperor Yanguang's madness than the courtiers.

Emperor Yanguang has proved with various deeds that both the prince and the courtiers were dishonest. He may let the courtiers go, but he will never let the prince go.

In the past three months, the enthusiasm of the courtiers suddenly dropped significantly.

Emperor Yanguang's so-called letting the kings go to the court to listen to the government is really just going to the court to listen to the government. Whenever the prince said a word in the court, he would be reprimanded mercilessly by Emperor Yanguang.

Even if Emperor Yanguang was lazy and didn't show up at the court that day, he would issue a decree to reprimand the kings after knowing what happened in the court, whether it is ten or twenty sticks, it all depends on Emperor Yanguang's mood.

After King Li, King Jia and King Xiang were all punished, the courtiers suddenly realized that Emperor Yanguang's allowing the kings to attend the court was not to consider the candidate for the crown prince, but to compromise with the court.

Before the kings went to the court to listen to the government, the courtiers had repeatedly asked Emperor Yanguang to allow the adult prince to go to the court for five consecutive years.

After the courtiers figured it out, they were all shocked to varying degrees.

They continued to ask Emperor Yanguang to allow adult princes to go to court, which was just a routine act and to fulfill the responsibilities of ministers. For this reason, many veteran ministers have been dismissed from office, and countless officials have been relegated to bitter cold places.

Asking Emperor Yanguang to allow an adult prince to go to court is no less than pointing at Emperor Yanguang's nose and saying you are old.

It is not surprising that there will be such a result.

Even if he might be the next person to be dismissed or relegated, the courtiers did not give up the offer.

In the Yu Dynasty, there was Emperor Yanguang, who was already seriously injured.The surrounding small countries affiliated to the Yu Dynasty did not pay tribute to the Yu Dynasty for many years, and even the frontier generals in the Yu Dynasty did not pay attention to the Chang'an decree, and secretly performed many yin and yang violations.After the death of Emperor Yanguang, we must not usher in a new emperor who doesn't understand anything.

Because the image of Emperor Yanguang has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people for many years, when Emperor Yanguang was 'seriously ill', when King Yi and King Zhen entered the court, the courtiers never thought about it. Behavior.

After King Yi and King Zhen were purged, Emperor Yanguang allowed King Li, King Jia, and King Xiang to enter the court, and the courtiers did not think that this was Emperor Yanguang's retreat and compromise with the courtiers.

It wasn't until Emperor Yanguang allowed King Li, King Jia, and King Xiang to enter the court, but did not allow the three princes to have any influence on the government, that the courtiers suddenly woke up.

Emperor Yanguang still guarded against his sons for many years, but he was indeed old, and it was because of his old age that he quietly did things that he would never do before.

' Compromise with courtiers. '

This discovery made the courtiers feel extremely complicated, but it was followed by unconcealable excitement and excitement. Yanguang has been strong and weak for nearly 20 years, and there is still a chance to switch between strong and weak!

The courtiers started a new round of upsells, this time they asked Emperor Yanguang to allow the kings to enter the six-part experience.

Two and a half years later, Emperor Yanguang compromised again.

Not long after King Jia came to the court to listen to the government, he realized that Emperor Yanguang didn't really want to delegate power to the kings, so he immediately resumed his habit of going to the palace every now and then to pay his respects, and going horse racing in the suburbs of Beijing when he had time, and he didn't care about the government at all.

Sure enough, Emperor Yanguang was very tolerant towards King Jia, and rewarded him every now and then, and King Jia was also the one who was beaten the least among the three brothers.

Seriously going to court, they found that they couldn't understand, and King Li and King Xiang, who asked the courtiers for advice, were unlucky again and again, and they were always reprimanded by Emperor Yanguang.

Today, the kings are allowed to go to the Six Departments to practice. King Li was accused of going to the Ministry of Punishment, King Xiang was accused of going to the Ministry of Industry, but King Jia had the opportunity to choose.

After several times of tossing and tossing over the years, King Jia had already fully seen Emperor Yanguang's fishing routines, so he would not think that Emperor Yanguang pointed out the worst places for King Li and King Xiang, but gave him the opportunity to choose because he valued him .

It is likely that he violated Emperor Yanguang's taboo unintentionally, and Emperor Yanguang deliberately gave him the opportunity to make mistakes.

Under Emperor Yanguang's loving gaze, King Jia replied respectfully, "My ministers are all arranged by Aye."

Emperor Yanguang refused to take it up, "This is my grace to you."

King Jia hesitated for a long time before speaking again, "I don't like the Ministry of Rites, as long as it's not the Ministry of Rites, I can go anywhere."

"Huh? Why don't you like the Ministry of Rites? Has Zhang Qing provoked you before?" Emperor Yanguang smiled lightly, as if he was very interested in this matter.

King Jia didn't say a word, and was questioned by Emperor Yanguang before he replied reluctantly, "When Concubine De concubine was named concubine, the Ministry of Rites neglected Concubine De concubine."

Emperor Yanguang couldn't help laughing, and suddenly felt that he was wary of King Jia for no reason.

Is he someone who can easily guess?

It's just a coincidence that what King Jia did just happened to please him.

Emperor Yanguang lost the will to continue talking to King Jia, glanced at the six ministers standing together, and casually pointed King Jia to the household department.

King Jia didn't go into details with Ji Xinxue about the game between the courtiers and Emperor Yanguang and the crisis when he was talking to Emperor Yanguang in the hall today, but only told Ji Xinxue the result, "The sage pointed me to the Ministry of Household Affairs."

A smile appeared in Ji Xinxue's eyes, "Good place!"

With Emperor Yanguang's character, he would definitely not allow the prince to get involved in the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of War. In comparison, the Ministry of Households is already the best place to go.

King Jia was in a great mood, listening to Ji Xinxue's seemingly endless good words, he finally acquiesced to Song Nian and poured Ji Xinxue a glass of fruit wine.

The summer was hot, and Jia Wang and Ji Xinxue were as bitter as summer, so they ordered the kitchen not to prepare meals, just serve two bowls of cold noodles.

The refreshing cold noodles, as well as the sweet and sour fruit wine, made Ji Xinxue sigh in satisfaction. Thinking of the strange atmosphere in Hanzhu Courtyard these days, Ji Xinxue couldn't help asking King Jia about Concubine Yan.

King Jia was waiting for his servant to bring him new cold noodles, he was too lazy to talk to Ji Xinxue, so he asked Songnian and Ji Xinxue to talk about Yan Concubine.

Concubine Yan was originally the daughter of a petty official of the eighth rank, and was more favored by the petty official than her elder brother.It's a pity that fate is not good, and before he reached the age of marriage, the petty official got into trouble and was dismissed from office, and he became seriously ill due to depression, and left within a few days.

Xiaoguan's wife only had sons and no daughters in her eyes. In addition, Xiaoguan got into trouble first and then suffered a serious illness, which ruined all the money in the family. Xiaoguan's wife was even more reluctant to spend the remaining money on her daughter.

Poor Concubine Yan is very beautiful, proficient in female celebrities, and has her own opinions in poetry and books. She can be regarded as a Xiaojiabiyu, but she was betrothed by her mother to the stupid son of a wealthy businessman.

It's just because the wealthy businessman gave enough dowry, and he didn't ask Yan Yan to have a dowry.

Not long after Concubine Yan married the son of a rich businessman, the stupid son who had been demented for many years suddenly returned to normal.

In order to stabilize his status, the son of a wealthy businessman soon married another woman from a similar family background as his equal wife.

Later, the wealthy businessman passed away suddenly, and the son of the wealthy businessman inherited the family property of the wealthy businessman, and wrote a letter to Concubine Yan to release his wife and property that would allow Concubine Yan and Concubine Yan to give birth to a daughter who would be rich and worry-free.

Concubine Yan's mother was worried about the property that the rich merchant's son had given to Concubine Yan, so she took Concubine Yan's sister-in-law to Concubine Yan's residence all day long to cry for poverty.

Not long after, Concubine Yan sold the property given to her by the son of a wealthy businessman, and took her daughter to live in Chang'an.

Concubine Yan was originally admitted to the six female officials. Because there was a shortage of talents in the palace, she entered the palace by accident. She did not expect to be favored by Emperor Yanguang, and she rose to the top at a speed that no one could have imagined. eunuch.

Ji Xinxue listened to Song Nian's story about Concubine Yan, and sipped the fruit wine while holding a wine glass half the size of a palm.

As expected of a woman who can bear Concubine Cui's life, she can write a book after experiencing ups and downs in her life.

"After Concubine Yan served the saint, will the life of her ex-husband and her mother and elder brother be affected?" Ji Xinxue asked curiously.

The status of women in the Yu Dynasty was high, and the atmosphere was relatively open. It was very common for women to remarry after losing their husbands, but Emperor Yanguang was not an ordinary person. Who knows if he would trouble Yan Yan's ex-husband.

Judging from how Concubine Yan sold her property and brought her daughter to Chang'an back then, it is likely that she had developed a quarrel with her mother and elder brother.

Taking advantage of King Jia's concentration on eating cold noodles, Song Nian secretly refilled Ji Xinxue's wine glass under Ji Xinxue's pitiful gaze, and said with a smile, "Prince Yan's husband's family stopped doing business a long time ago, and they used all their property in Jiangnan has set up some good Zhuangzi to be the farmer, but it has not been affected. Yan Pin's mother and elder brother just arrived in Chang'an last month, and now they are living with Yan Xiaoniang in Qingyun Lane.

Ji Xinxue shook her head, regretting that it hadn't come to fruition yet.

"Miss Yan..." Ji Xinxue carefully chose her words, "Is there anything different about her?"

Such as natural power?

Every time Ji Xinxue sees the East Lake of Hanzhuyuan, she will think of the location where Cui Qingzhi fell into the water, and the appearance of Miss Yan will subconsciously appear in her mind.

Yan Xiaoniang is only two years older than Ji Xinxue, only twelve years old this year, although she is the tallest in Hanzhuyuan, she is not too tall to attract attention, she even looks a little thin.

It was really hard for Ji Xinxue to imagine how Miss Yan threw Cui Qingzhi into the East Lake.

Song Nian's expression was weird for a moment, and his voice suddenly lowered, "When I followed the king into the palace to pay respects to the maidens, Mrs. Concubine Su once said that she saw Mrs. Yan lifting up half of the rockery with her bare hands.

Ji Xinxue paused as if she was pecking rice and bowing her head, "How does the rockery in the palace compare with the rockery in the palace?"

Song Nian replied, "It is more grand and luxurious than the rockery in the palace, and the regulations are slightly better."

Ji Xinxue understood in seconds that the rockery in the palace was bigger than the rockery in the palace.

It really is true that people cannot be judged by appearances, if this is not considered innate divine power...

After asking about Concubine Yan and Miss Yan to satisfy her curiosity, Ji Xinxue began to secretly ask about Concubine Liang.

Although she would be terrified and unable to sleep at night if she knew more inside information, Ji Xinxue felt worried because she didn't know the news at all.

Ji Xinxue knew that Jiawang and Songnian couldn't tell him everything, as soon as Songnian's face showed hesitation, he would immediately start asking the next question, never making things difficult for Songnian.

Ever since Concubine Liang started tentatively persuading Emperor Yanguang to record King Xiang under her name, the Cui family would send two sisters of Concubine Liang to the palace to accompany Concubine Liang every few months.

In about two to three months, Concubine Liang will send her clan sister out of the palace, and after a few days, she will ask Cui to send other people into the palace to accompany her.

The little ladies Cui Shi sent into the palace were all young and unmarried, and they would discuss marriage immediately after leaving the palace. As time passed, most people could see through the careful thoughts of Cui Shi and Concubine Liang.

They wanted to follow the example of Concubine Su De and Concubine Su, and help Concubine Liang.

The little lady Cui sent to the palace last time had already left the palace half a month ago. Yesterday, Cui sent them to the palace again to accompany Concubine Liang. Sister, two widows living alone.

Ji Xinxue gloated in his eyes.

It seems that since entering the palace, she has been at the height of the sun, and the concubine Liang, who has made the six palaces look pale, has indeed suffered a lot from Concubine Yan.

"If you pour it down again, the whole flagon will be empty." Jia Wang took out a handkerchief to wipe his mouth, and looked at Song Nian with reproachful eyes.

Song Nian and Ji Xinxue, who were talking in a low voice, looked at each other, and looked away as if nothing had happened, one was staring at the wine glass held in the palm of the hand, the other was studying the pattern of the wine jug, neither of them wanted to look at Jia Wang.

Jia Dynasty held out Songnian's hand, "Bring the jug, let me see how much is left."

Song Nian poured all the remaining fruit wine into the empty cup in front of King Jia, held the jug and shook it next to King Jia's ear, "When warming the wine just now, the whole pot of wine was warmed for the King but only for Wu Niangzi. One third is gone."

King Jia heard that there was indeed no sound in the jug, and drank the wine that Song Nian poured into the cup in one gulp, but the suspicion in his heart increased instead of diminishing, "Really?"

Why does he feel that Song Nian has been secretly pouring wine for Xiao Wu.

Song Nian nodded sincerely, "You see, Fifth Lady's face isn't even red."

King Jia sneered, "You know how to help him lie to me. When did he face you when he was drinking?"

Before the words finished, Jiawang and Songnian fell silent at the same time.

Ji Xinxue, who was sitting on the other side, was smirking at King Jia with a blushing face. Feeling Wang Jia's gaze, Ji Xinxue raised his empty wine glass and emphasized to King Jia, "I only had one drink."

"How much did you drink for him?" Wang Jia asked through gritted teeth.

Song Nian looked down at the wine jug in his hand, suddenly he was a little uncertain, he hesitated for a while before giving a definite answer, "At most half a jug, presumably Wu Niangzi was afraid that you would snatch his wine, so she drank the last sip quickly and quickly. Only when you are in a hurry will you get drunk, and you will recover after a while."

King Jia snorted coldly, and suddenly said loudly, "What's the matter with your feet?"

Ji Xinxue looked at King Jia in a daze, and after a while, she turned her gaze to the feet that were always on the stool.

What's the matter with the feet?

Ji Xinxue's eyes suddenly showed a faint panic, and his tone was particularly aggrieved, "Cui Qingzhi suddenly jumped on me, and I sprained my feet to avoid her."

The coldness in King Jia's eyes grew colder, "What is she throwing herself at you for?

"I don't know." Ji Xinxue's face was full of confusion. He was indeed a little dizzy as Song Nian said, because he drank the last sip of wine too quickly, but he was not drunk. Thinking carefully about what happened at noon, he suddenly A reasonable guess was made, "She wants to subdue me and force me to promise her to isolate Little Lady Yan."

Otherwise, he would definitely not agree to Cui Qingzhi's request!

King Jia was silent for a while, a little confused whether Ji Xinxue was drunk or not, he rubbed his forehead, and asked Song Nian to call over the person who was with Ji Xinxue today.

Not long after, Song Nian brought Qingyun with him.

Qingyun articulately narrated the process of Ji Xinxue's ankle injury, including how Yu Heng was furious after seeing Ji Xinxue's injury, and did not save Cui Qingzhi and Kang Qi at all, and Cui Qingzhi finally left the Lenghui Hospital with a limp. Jiawang.

When Qingyun started to speak, Ji Xinxue gradually lost the feeling of listening to people talking and thinking through a layer of fog. He thought carefully about what he said to King Jia just now, and silently covered his face.

Drinking will definitely go wrong.

He knew that Cui Qingzhi would pounce on him because he regarded him as a little lady and wanted to get closer to each other through physical contact, but when he was talking to King Jia just now, he seemed to have been lowered, and his mind was full of Cui Qingzhi's reliance. suppress him by force.

It must be because of paying too much attention to Yan Xiaoniang's heroic deeds recently.

"Aye." Ji Xinxue waited for Qingyun to shut up before looking at King Jia in embarrassment, "Cui Qingzhi is also considered unintentional, I will not pay attention to her from now on."

After listening to Qingyun's explanation, King Jia already understood what happened.

It is Cui's daughter who has her own thoughts, not Cui's doubts about Ji Xinxue's gender.

He said 'hmm', seeing that Ji Xinxue had recovered from the drunkenness, he personally sent Ji Xinxue back to Baimoyuan.

It was windy at night, and the servant specially brought a thin cloak to cover Ji Xinxue's shoulders.

After all, Ji Xinxue was still affected by the alcohol, lying in Jiawang's arms and fell asleep, out of the corner of his eye, he saw Songnian holding a box in his hand, and asked in a low voice, "Is it Baifu Pill?"

Since last year's serious illness, Jia Wang specially ordered someone to give Ji Xinxue a pill named 'Baifu', and took one pill every three days, and never stopped.

Ji Xinxue once secretly stopped taking the medicine once, and has come to the conclusion that his hoarse voice, which is completely different from his peers, is caused by Baifu Pills.

Counting the days, it seems that there are only five Baifu pills that Songnian sent him last time.

Ji Xinxue felt the hand caressing the back of his head heavily, and her head, which was raised quietly, immediately returned to the position of pressing against Jiawang's shoulder.

"It's Baifu Pill, this medicine is good for you, don't stop." Jia Wang said concisely, his tone didn't sound very happy.

Ji Xinxue nodded obediently, "Understood, Aye."

Just when they could see the gate of Baomo Garden, the group suddenly heard the crowing of a rooster coming from Baimo Garden.

King Jia stopped in his tracks immediately, "Why are the chickens in your yard crowing at this time?"

He knew that Ji Xinxue raised chickens and rabbits in Baimoyuan, and he liked them very much. He accidentally raised the chickens and rabbits to death, and asked people to cremate the dead chickens and rabbits. The ashes were put into wooden boxes and placed in a special room.

But I never knew that the chickens in Baimoyuan would crow at night.

Embarrassment appeared on Ji Xinxue's face, and she whispered, "Maybe it's because I didn't get used to it when I first came to Baimo Academy. It will be fine in a few days."

Before the words fell, there was another sound from the direction of Baimoyuan, which was much louder than the last one, and it was obviously the sound of another chicken crowing.

King Jia was silent for a long time, and looked up at the courtyard adjacent to Baimo Courtyard.

Last year, Jingyu suddenly told him to change the yard, could it be because he couldn't stand the crowing of the rooster in Baimoyuan?

King Jia looked down at Ji Xinxue. "you……"

Ji Xinxue didn't give King Jia a chance to finish the sentence, and immediately interrupted King Jia, "Aye, my chickens and rabbits are very good, they really seldom bark, and they never run outside the Baimo courtyard! "

King Jia remained indifferent, "Isn't this what they should do?"

Ji Xinxue was so poor that he had no choice but to cheat, "Brother! How about I give you two rabbits? Rabbits I raised with my own hands!"

King Jia stepped forward again, and walked towards Baimo Court amidst the increasingly cheerful crowing of cocks, and said with a disgusted face, "What do I want your rabbit to do, dig a hole in the front yard?"

Ji Xinxue showed a heartbroken expression, "Of course I eat meat! The rabbits I raise are so fat that they can make spicy rabbit heads, steamed rabbit legs, and roast whole rabbits..."

It's been a long time since King Jia didn't know what to say. The last time I had this feeling was when I heard that Ji Xinxue ordered all the dead chickens and rabbits to be cremated, and the ashes were put into wooden boxes for special storage. when.

In King Jia's eyes, burning dead chickens and rabbits to ashes is no less than torture, but he could understand Ji Xinxue's reluctance to part with the chickens and rabbits he raised with his own hands.

Compared to Ji Xinxue digging pits to bury the dead chickens and rabbits in the White Mo Courtyard, Jia Wang would rather have Ji Xinxue burn the chickens and rabbits to ashes and keep them.

It was not until this moment when he heard Ji Xinxue's 'recipe' that Jia Wang knew that Ji Xinxue's rabbits and chickens were still edible.

King Jia pondered for a while, then tentatively opened his mouth, "Five rabbits, five chickens. We will have a barbecue in the front yard another day, just in time to call your brother and sisters."

The smile on Ji Xinxue's face froze suddenly, and she looked at King Jia in disbelief.

The bunnies he raises are so cute, how can he eat so many bunnies all at once?

However, King Jia had made up his mind and insisted on reducing the number of rabbits and chickens for Baimoyuan. After Ji Xinxue's resistance was ineffective, he could only accept it calmly.

When King Jia carried Ji Xinxue into the White Mo Academy, he was already prepared to be thrown on his face by chicken wings when he entered the door, so he adjusted his posture secretly and hid Ji Xinxue's face in his arms.

However, the scene in Baimo Courtyard took Jiawang by surprise.

From the gate of Baimo Courtyard to Ji Xinxue's room, there are neither rabbits blocking the way nor chickens that suddenly fly towards people's faces. The air has a faint fragrance of flowers, and it doesn't look like a yard with many rabbits and chickens at all.

If it wasn't for the constant crowing of the cock, Jia Wang might have temporarily forgotten Ji Xinxue's love of raising rabbits and chickens.

When Ji Xinxue was placed on the soft bed beside the bed, Jia Wang's eyebrows were already relaxed.

Ji Xinxue was worried that the chickens and rabbits in the yard would be nested together, and was eager to please King Jia, just as she sat firmly on the soft bed, she immediately grabbed Jia Wang's hand to prevent him from leaving, and hammered on Jia Wang's arm diligently. , "Aye tired? Let Songnian catch a chicken and cook soup for you to nourish your body."

King Jia snorted softly, seeing that the Baimo Courtyard was considered normal, he no longer wanted to interfere with Ji Xinxue's hobbies, and said kindly, "Give me the two that are calling now, I will eat one first, and the other stewed Bring the soup to your grandma."

Ji Xinxue nodded repeatedly, not daring to say the word 'no'.

As expected of his father, he really has vision. The two chickens that are crowing are breeders that Yu Heng specially found for him, and they are the most expensive among all the chickens in Baimoyuan.

After King Jia left, Ji Xinxue couldn't bear the tiredness of being injured and drunk any longer, so she hurriedly washed up and climbed onto the bed, and didn't open her eyes until the sun was high.

It was already past the time for class in Hanzhuyuan, Ji Xinxue didn't panic at all, she asked Bijuan, and she got it, "Your Majesty has asked for a five-day leave for you." ', he got up and brushed his teeth, drank a cup of warm water, and went back to bed for a long sleep.

Waking up again, Ji Xinxue belatedly began to feel sorry for the breeder he had just acquired. He sighed and wrote a letter to Yu Heng, telling Yu Heng that the two expensive roosters were called Jia Wang because they were too good. Noticing that it has turned into chicken soup, he needs new roosters for breeder.

At the end of the letter, Ji Xinxue specifically emphasized that he just likes raising chickens rather than chickens. As long as it is a rooster, it can be a breeder, and it doesn't have to be a rare breed.

If the chickens in his yard hadn't been dying so fast, it would have been noticeable to keep looking for chicks, why would he let his servants incubate the chicks.

The reply came quickly, and Yu Heng promised to find a new breeder chicken for Ji Xinxue, and then asked Ji Xinxue how her feet were and when she could return to Hanzhuyuan for class.

After Ji Xinxue replied another letter to Yu Heng, she was about to go to the backyard to see his rabbits and chickens, but she heard from Bi Juan that Mrs. Zhong came to see him, so she could only talk to Mrs. Zhong first.

Mrs. Zhong persisted in studying, and finally welcomed her exclusive teacher last year.

Concubine De saw that Mrs. Zhong was the most diligent in studying, so she gave Mrs. Zhong a female lecturer alone, and she only gave Mrs. Zhong a lecture.

Since then, Miss Zhong's books have become more and more profound, leaving Ji Xinxue far behind.

Although reading did not make Mrs. Zhong smarter, and even made Mrs. Zhong more dull, Ji Xinxue always felt that Mrs. Zhong's temperament was changing towards a scholar, and sometimes she would give people the feeling of being wise and foolish.

It is definitely enough to bluff people in a short time.

Mrs. Zhong brought Ji Xinxue a pastry she made herself. She had seen Ji Xinxue's ankles with her own eyes and had a conversation with Ji Xinxue, praising Zhong Twelve Lang from beginning to end without any trace.

Ji Xinxue would no longer be uncomfortable with Mrs. Zhong's words, he smiled and said, "Don't worry, Ma'am, if Aye tells me that he is going to choose a husband for me, I will definitely tell Aye that I want to marry my cousin. "

Mrs. Zhong was stunned, looking at the smile on Ji Xinxue's mouth, she suddenly felt a little melancholy, she grabbed Ji Xinxue's hand, sighed long, with sadness on her brows, "Aniang is really doing it for you , I want you to marry Twelve Lang."

"I know." Ji Xinxue nodded, he had never doubted Miss Zhong's intentions for him.

"Forget it." Mrs. Zhong shook her head, gently stroked Ji Xinxue's temples, and said softly, "You should never understand A Niang's painstaking efforts. A Niang only hopes that you can spend this life safely."

Ji Xinxue didn't know which book Mrs. Zhong was studying recently, which made her so sentimental, but he was content.

When Mrs. Zhong only said a few words about him verbally, he would never argue with Mrs. Zhong.

The mother and son talked for a long time, Mrs. Zhong had dinner with Ji Xinxue again, and left the White Mo Courtyard before dark, taking a little white rabbit who had just left the nest with her when she left.

Mrs. Zhong recently had the idea of ​​raising a living animal. She originally wanted to find a cat with good fur, but after meeting Ji Xinxue, she remembered that Ji Xinxue loves rabbits, so she wanted to raise the same thing as Ji Xinxue.

How could Ji Xinxue dare to tell Mrs. Zhong the reason why he raised rabbits, so he could only vaguely say it.

The next day when the Imperial College closed, brothers and sisters came to Baimoyuan to visit Ji Xinxue one after another. They had to ask him why his foot was hurt. Ji Xinxue always said it was a sprain.

On the third day of the sprained ankle, Ji Xinxue tried to walk on both feet, but he fell into deep autism and could only continue to lie flat.

On the fourth day of the sprain, Yu Heng sent Qingzhu to Prince Jia's Mansion to deliver something to Ji Xinxue, and brought a piece of news to Ji Xinxue by the way.

Cui Qingzhi took a long vacation.

"How long?" Ji Xinxue asked casually.

Qingzhu immediately said, "I have asked Dean Jiang's entourage, Mrs. Cui asked for half a year's leave for Miss Cui."

"Huh?" Ji Xinxue was surprised. He thought it would be ten days and a half months at most, but he didn't expect it to be such a genuine long vacation.

It's a pity that Qingzhu only knows so much, and when Ji Xinxue asked Qingzhu the specific reason why Cui Qingzhi asked for a long vacation, Qingzhu could only scratch his head.

Ji Xinxue kept this matter in her heart, and planned to find an opportunity to inquire with Yu Heng or Si Niangzi, and asked about what Qingzhu brought.

Qingzhu brought five breeder chickens to Ji Xinxue, and they were taken directly to the backyard. In addition, there was also a short white porcelain pot that could fit in the palm of your hand.

Before Ji Xinxue opened the short white porcelain jar, he smelled an indescribable aroma. He took a deep breath and opened the jar. Inside was something similar to a mixture of sesame paste and sesame oil.

"It's really made?" Ji Xinxue showed a surprised expression.

Last year, Ji Xinxue told Yu Heng all the methods he could recall to extract vegetable oil, but he never heard from him. He thought that Yu Heng had given up after failing many times.

Qingzhu finally found something he could explain clearly, and talked about the contents of the white porcelain low jar, from the production process to the specific amount and time of use, and finally concluded, "The king of Xiaojun is anxious to take this thing out. Come to show the county magistrate, the oil will be clearer if it can be left to stand for another ten days before it reaches its optimum state."

Ji Xinxue finally got the sesame paste, and immediately asked the small kitchen to serve him cold noodles, and then presented him with a portion of all kinds of ingredients, personally prepared two bowls of noodles, kept one for himself, and asked Qingzhu to bring the other back to Yu Heng.

After taking a nap at noon, Ji Xinxue dragged his injured foot to the backyard to see his precious rabbits and chickens.

Everyone in Baimoyuan knew that Ji Xinxue didn't like to be disturbed when she was playing with the little things in the backyard.

Seeing Ji Xinxue appearing in the backyard, the servant put the irritable chickens back into the coop and quietly exited the backyard.

Ji Xinxue first grabbed two fat rabbits and rubbed them in her arms, and secretly arranged how to cook in each position.

While the silly chicken who was curiously pecking at the flowers on his skirt didn't react, he suddenly grabbed the chicken's neck, held the chicken's neck in one hand, and walked into the house with the rabbit ears in the other.

He first tied the rabbit's legs and chicken's feet with the ribbon he had prepared in his sleeve pocket, then went straight to the big bed behind the screen, skillfully removed the bed board, put on the rabbit fur glove hidden in the other sleeve, Carefully bring out the bowl full of yellow mold.

Ji Xinxue put more than a dozen soaked beans into a bowl, and using two randomly folded branches as chopsticks, picked up two soaked beans covered with mold respectively, and stuffed them into the mouths of the unlucky rabbit and the silly chicken. He pinched the necks of the hapless rabbit and the silly chicken skillfully, and let go only after making sure that the hapless rabbit and the silly chicken had swallowed the beans.

Ji Xinxue sighed, went back to the mold bowl and picked out two beans, threw them into the white porcelain pot with only a light layer of oil left, and then put the mold bowl and white porcelain pot back under the bed.

After restoring the bed board, Ji Xinxue put the fur gloves used and the branches used as chopsticks into a dense cloth bag and put them in her arms, and carried the unlucky rabbits and silly chickens back to the yard, and untied the ribbons that bound them .

He stayed in the backyard for an hour before leaving, and went to the study in the front yard to practice calligraphy, burning two pots of waste calligraphy.

As a result of forcibly using her feet, Ji Xinxue squatted in the Jiawang Mansion for another five days.

During the period, there was a rabbit and a chicken kicking legs in Ji Xinxue's backyard.

Both the rabbit and the chicken died of sudden illness, Ji Xin
