Xie Xiang

How dare Lvzhu coax her, shook his head anxiously, and said: "My maidservant, this maidservant belongs to the Empress Dowager."

The Empress Dowager calmed down, approached her, and said: "It's mine, so naturally I want to sleep in bed."

She didn't know why the green bamboo belonged to her, so she was going to attend the bed, but she understood what it meant, she was worried and afraid for a moment, and before she could hide any more, the Queen Mother had already leaned over, and her eyebrows and eyes were dyed With a thin smile and a natural charm, while Lu Zhu was staring blankly, he leaned over and kissed her lips.

In an instant, the room was bright and bright.

Liu Zao and Xie Yi agreed that they would go out of town.But when it came to the end, something happened again in the court.In such a big world, there are big things, but there are countless small things.What Liu Zao was most impatient to deal with was not major matters related to people's livelihood, nor were officials committing crimes, but trivial matters that had to be dealt with.

After all, when you are young, you always like to be neat and straightforward, and you are always irritable when it comes to muddy things.Unfortunately, this time, it's just trivial matters.

Xie Yi knew her temperament, in the past, she would always deal with such matters well, make a summary, write a playbook and submit it to her for review.But this time, Liu Zao was thinking about going out with Xie Yi, so she and Xie Yi ordered the subordinates to report the matter to her desk first, she read it, she looked over it, selected some points, and made a decision, Then hand it over to Xie Yi.

In this way, Xie Yi's embrace became much easier, but it was different in the eyes of others. Many ministers secretly thought that His Majesty did not trust the Prime Minister and had to look at everything in person.

How could Liu Zao take care of them and relax again, it was already a month later, as soon as she got out, she hurriedly went to grind Xie Yi and go out of the city.

Xie Yi had already agreed to her, how could she break her promise, picked a bright sunny day, and rode out of Chang'an City together with her.

At that time, it was icy and snowy, and the sun was warming. Liu Zao happily rode his horse and galloped through the forest.

In winter, there is snow all around, Xie Yi thought, there is not much to see, so she went here with Liu Zao to hunt.

It is recorded in "Zhou Li" that the emperor hunts in the fields at four seasons, which are called spring hunting, summer seedlings, autumn hunting, and winter hunting.Liu Zao has been on the throne for several years, hunting in four seasons, with great momentum.But any time, it is not as good as today, I am happy.

There are some small animals appearing in the snow, Liu Zao has sharp eyes, and when she sees them, she rides her horse to chase them, and draws her bow and arrows when she catches up, some of them hit or miss, but it doesn't hinder her high spirits.

Xie Yi also has a bow in her hand, she is far inferior to Liu Zao in riding and shooting, most of the time, she just holds the rein and follows her, watching her chasing animals with great interest.

When Liu Zao was twelve or thirteen years old, once in spring, he caught a rabbit on the road.On that day, Xi Xi wrote in a letter with Xie Yi: "The emperor's grandson got a cunning rabbit, and he was overjoyed. He cooked it with his own hands and ate more than half of it."

Xie Yi knew then that she should love hunting.It's just that the past few times I went hunting in the court, but I didn't see how His Majesty was interested. After thinking about it for a while, she guessed that maybe there were too many followers, which made His Majesty feel that he lost the fun of hunting.

She only brought three attendants with her, and the rest were stationed outside the forest so that His Majesty could have fun. Sure enough, His Majesty was very interested.Seeing Liu Zaoying's valiant back, Xie Yi also became happy.

Liu Zao rode the horse in front, she suddenly pulled the rein to stop the horse, then fixed her eyes on the front, pulled out an arrow from the quiver, put it on the bow, took aim, and after a while, the feathered arrow pierced the wind and went away.Xie Yi then looked forward, and saw a white fox looking for food in the snow ahead.The fur of the white fox is like snow, hidden in a vast world, it is extremely difficult to find.

The moment Xie Yi saw it, the feathered arrow followed and pierced the white fox, and the white fox fell down immediately.

"Shot!" Liu Zao shouted, turned to look at Xie Yi, and then rode forward.

Xie Yi followed closely behind.Liu Zao got off the horse next to the white fox and lifted the white fox up.The arrow pierced through a pair of eyes, and it was only thanks to her outstanding archery skills that this was possible.Xie Yi saw it, and knew that His Majesty wanted to shoot the eyes on purpose, probably because he wanted to leave a complete fur.It was obvious who to leave the fur for.

There was a smile in Xie Yi's eyes, and she got off the horse and saw Liu Zao exposed the fox's belly in disappointment, saying, "It's not a pure white fox." There was a piece of black fur on the belly, which spoiled the color of the fur.

Xie Yi took it and said with a smile, "It's also pretty."

When she boasted like this, Liu Zao immediately laughed again: "I've sent someone to cook."

Xie Yi couldn't help it, touched her ear, and said, "Take a break."

It was getting late, it was almost noon, Liu Zao hunted all morning, and she got a lot of money. She specially selected a gray rabbit and a mountain pheasant from the prey, took a dagger, ran to the river, and peeled the skins herself. cleaning.At this time, all the attendants had followed up, they were shocked and turned pale when they saw this, and rushed to serve them, Liu Zao felt that they were annoying, so he drove them away and continued with his work.

She wants to cook delicacies for Xie Xiang by herself, without help.

The animal meat was cleaned, and Liu Zao's hands were red from the cold.But she didn't stop for a moment, and went to build a fire herself. Xie Yi wanted to help, but Liu Zao didn't want to, as long as she picked a few dead branches.

Xie Yi listened to her all.She is a prime minister giving orders, and a stable person over thirty years old, so she is not used to doing this.But she searched very seriously, and never asked the attendants to help. When she saw one, she picked it up, held it in her hand, and continued to search.

Liu Zao looked at her figure, his smiling eyes gradually softened, and his expression was full of dependence.

Xie Xiang is really good.She regards her as a child and loves her, and also regards her as a beloved person to accompany her.

Xie Yi picked up a lot of dead branches, which was enough.

Liu Zao began to work, putting all the prepared rabbit meat and pheasant meat on the campfire.Her movements are a bit clumsy, but even though she is clumsy, she can be called orderly, and she doesn't seem to be overwhelmed.

Xie Yi sat on the side and waited, occasionally obeying the order and throwing a dead branch into the bonfire.

The meat gradually changed its color as it roasted, dripping out oil and giving off the aroma of meat.Liu Zao took some spices and sprinkled them on top. Xie Yi glanced at her hands curiously. Liu Zao explained, "It's a spice from the Western Regions. I tried it and it tastes good."

Xie Yi nodded in relief.

Liu Zao glanced at her, lowered his head slightly, there was nowhere to hide his smile.

Rabbit meat and pheasant meat are roasted in different ways. Liu Zao explained to Xie Yi while doing it: "I have consulted with the chef, the meat quality of the two is different, rabbit meat is fishy, ​​and pheasant meat is real, so you have to cook it differently to make it delicious. .”

She sprinkled a lot of spices on the rabbit meat, and she kept turning it to make the heat evenly. When the rabbit meat turned a beautiful orange, she poured down the prepared sauce, so that the juice seeped into the cut meat. .

Mountain pheasants don't need to be so troublesome. They are wrapped in sackcloth and pressed with big stones before they start roasting.

Xie Yi looked at her sternly, very appropriate, couldn't help but imagine the scene when His Majesty was asking the chef for advice, and couldn't help but glance at her.She can do so well, she must not only ask for advice, she must have practiced quietly many times.

Although she had prepared this trip, His Majesty did not let go, and wanted to make her happy. "Okay!" Liu Zao said loudly, with some cheer in his tone.She took out the rabbit meat, put it in the cauldron that had been prepared, took a new dagger, and cut the meat open.

The rabbit meat was still hot, Liu Zao said that it should be eaten while it is hot, and her fingers turned red, but she didn't care, divided the meat into plates, and held it in front of Xie Yi, with a little twinkle in her eyes. Looking forward to it, he said, "Try it."

Xie Yi ate a small piece and savored it carefully.

Liu Zao was suddenly nervous and stared at her intently.Xie Yi swallowed the meat, showing a thoughtful expression, Liu Zao couldn't hold back, and asked softly, "Is it delicious?"

That solemnity is almost unprecedented.

Xie Yi smiled sweetly and nodded, "It's delicious."

Liu Zao heaved a sigh of relief, her eyes were full of joy, she almost jumped up for joy, like a child eager to show off herself after being praised, she hurriedly said: "Pheasant meat is also ready, thank you and try again."

After all, I went to pick up the mountain pheasant again.Let Xie Yi taste it first as usual, it's still very delicious.

The two shared the juvenile meat with the rabbit meat, and after eating well, they went for a walk in the forest.

Although the scenery of the snow field is pure white, it is also magnificent.The endless snow, ups and downs, is like a stormy wave, and the high momentum also has a thrilling beauty.

Liu Zao walked slowly, couldn't help but look at Xie Yi, Xie Yi looked ahead, as if her heart was as calm as water.Liu Zao took her hand quietly, Xie Yi didn't struggle, she turned her head to look at her, smiled with her, and let her lead.

Liu Zao was so moved that he hugged her directly.Xie Yi stopped, raised his hand to stroke her hair, Liu Zao stared at her directly, he didn't say what he wanted to do, but he was hesitant, fearing that Xie Yi would be displeased.Xie Yi smiled slightly, and said softly, "Mengmeng."

These two words were like a promise, making Liu Zao no longer restrained, she kissed Xie Yi's lips regardless, eager and passionate.Xie Yi responded to her, stroking the back of her neck and stroking her hair.Her gentleness dispelled the restlessness of youth, and made Liu Zao soothed, making her more lingering like spring water.

They hugged and kissed, and when they parted, their faces were all red.Liu Zao was a little shy, but also very happy, and vaguely felt uneasy, she thought for a while, and asked cautiously: "Do you think I'm rude, too...too aggressive."

Not long ago, they were the scene where she begged hard and Xie Xiang avoided, and finally Xie Xiang accepted her, but she always wanted to be more intimate with her.I don't know if Xie Xianghui thinks she is frivolous.

Thinking of this, Liu Zao couldn't help worrying, and said softly: "I also want to be more self-restraining, but, but you are in front of me, I can't restrain myself, I want to get close to you." She obviously has some self-control, but thank you After accepting her, I don't know where my self-control has gone, it's all gone.

Her words are frank and sincere.Xie Yi said, "It's really rude."

Liu Zao turned pale and looked at her in panic.Xie Yi couldn't help but blushed, pretended to be calm, and continued: "But when it's just me and His Majesty, there is no need to observe etiquette everywhere."

Liu Zao's surprise turned into joy, when she saw Xie Yi's red ears and compared her calm face, she was immediately moved, and said in a low voice, "So, so, I'm not being polite anymore."

After finishing speaking, he hugged Xie Yi tightly, and kissed her again.
