The princess relies on the cat to ascend the throne

Lu Wanzhen liked the way Le Ning relied on her so much.

There was a little helpless smile in her eyes, but she didn't feel worried or guilty, she just thought this person was cute——

Lu Wanzhen winked at a maidservant of the Lu Mansion who was guarding the door, signaling her to go in and help. At the same time, Shi Shiran moved closer to the door of Le Ning's house, and slowly said:

"Do you have to ask me?"

The emotion contained in the tone is not so much helplessness, it is better to say that there is some pampering of "I really can't do anything with you".

That is Le Ning, if the girl next to her is under Lu Wanzhen's domineering and pampering attack all day long, she may fall in love with her within a day.

However, Le Ning realized something from her teasing, paused, and changed his words: "Then please trouble your highness to call someone else for me. I just thought that your highness has always practiced martial arts, and her strength should be much stronger than that of ordinary maids."

"If it's okay, I'll call a servant girl into the house to help you." Lu Wanzhen smiled, as if she had automatically forgotten what she was looking for later, her tone was much more relaxed, and the previous sullenness disappeared long ago.

Le Ning slowed down inside, and responded, "Okay."

……

When the personal maid brought a change of clothes, Le Ning's hairpin was released from the curtain without taking it off, and she changed into an azure color, and the moon white skirt made her complexion white, so It seemed that her cheeks were even more flushed.

It's rare for Lu Wanzhen to see her shy, but she doesn't want to say it in front of everyone.

Aning's shy appearance is fine for her to appreciate, she has no intention of letting others see it.

Lu Wanzhen cleared his throat, turned around and asked the people around him:

"Has the water tank been placed in the hall?"

The person serving beside him nodded.

Lu Wanzhen clapped his hands at Le Ning: "Let's go, go back to the living room, I just promised you something new."

Le Ning followed her to the direction of the hall, and then his eyes widened suddenly——

The red coral color of the room almost illuminates the walls of the hall.

At first glance, it looks like colored glaze or agate from the Western Regions. Only then can such translucent... ornamental water tanks be carved?

Le Ning looked at the size of the water tank. Although modern ocean worlds and aquariums are larger than this, and there are many transparent glass ornamental covers, this is in Dali!

The direction of the water tank is like ripples, and the water plants carved below climb up along the bottom of the tank, reflecting the sparkling light in the water, as if the real red water plants have grown outside.

In the tank, there are cold fishes swimming straight back and forth, and some miraculous little fishes blindly follow behind, which is like a small exhibition.

Especially the stones and layout inside are a bit more rustic than the modern ones, and also a little more... luxurious.

Le Ning's imagination limited by poverty made her open her mouth slightly when she saw the agate water tank:

"This……"

There was a hint of complacency on Lu Wanzhen's face, but it wasn't obvious. She turned around beside Le Ning with her hands behind her back, as if trying to show "that's all", but she didn't hold back much.

In the end, it seems that I can't wait to hear the praise.

It is also difficult for Le Ning to see these exquisite works of art in ancient times. He lost his mind for a moment just now, but now that Lu Wanzhen walked around twice, he couldn't help pursing his lips, wondering if this person forgot his identity for a while, I thought I was a cat, so I just spun around her feet.

Thinking of Sesame trying to rub his head and ears against his ankles every time he wanted something to eat, Le Ning finally let out a little smile on his lips.

"Your Highness—"

She stretched her voice and called out softly.

Lu Wanzhen immediately stopped and asked her, "Huh?"

Le Ning pointed inside, and whispered: "There is a box dolphin in there, you should take it out, although it looks very cute, like a box that has turned into a spirit, but it will release toxins when it is frightened, and it will easily destroy the tank. The fish are poisoned to death."

If she is not mistaken, there are several hairtails inside.

This is amazing——

In modern times, it is easy to sell this fish in inland supermarkets or seafood markets far away from the sea. After all, it has a large quantity and the meat tastes good.

It’s just that frozen fish always has a fishy smell. If it’s not braised or fried, it’s hard to cover up the fishy smell. Besides, the skin of the fish will become darker and darker after a long time. , looks very ugly.

Only people who are often in contact with seafood can know that this hairtail, just dead, is like a steel knife that has just been forged when it is still fresh. Like cutting people's sight.

The author of the Qing Dynasty "Haicuotu" published in modern times jokingly mentioned that after fishermen salvage hairtails from the sea, they are used to hanging up the fish for sale, saying, "Looking at it is like entering an arsenal, with sharp swords and shining lights."

You can see its sharpness.

Lu Wanzhen didn't know that Le Ning was already thinking about how to stew the edible fish here, and she was still immersed in the emotion that the person in front of her hadn't praised her, so she only responded slightly: "Yes."

Then he said, "This gift...do you like it?"

Le Ning raised his eyes to look at her, his expression was much calmer, and then——

Suddenly raised the corners of his lips, showing her a bright smile.

"like."

Le Ning replied with a smile.

But she was a little worried that it would be inappropriate to send such a big gift to the Duke's mansion?

For example, being ginsenged by the crown prince's extravagance and lust, or the prince's close contacts with the Duke's mansion, after all, it's always played like this in TV dramas.

Le Ning was a little worried, and later saw Lu Wanzhen instructing the housekeeper to find a suitable hall to store it. From the corner of his eye, he saw Le Ning wanting to raise his hand to pull his sleeve, and then put it down halfway, and then only heard her speak softly to reveal her doubts.

The joy in Lu Wanzhen's heart rose little by little, and after listening to her words, the voice of her answer became much warmer:

"It's okay, the restaurant that uncle gave you is about to open, and then you can put this agate water tank in the hall, it's a bit grand."

Longman:"……"

Longman:"???"

She has never seen such a large pure natural crystal even in modern times. Do you really think she doesn't know the price of this thing? !

Le Ning raised his hand to support his forehead, and said for a long while: "Your Highness, if the rules are not in order, how about taking this gift back—"

Anyway, she just fished out the fish inside and ate it.

Nothing else matters.

Most people work hard to make money and get ahead, just to have more choices and more security in their lives. Although Le Ning lived in an ordinary family in modern times, he has been living a hard life in ancient times. Now he has entered Lu Guogong It stands to reason that he should enjoy a luxurious life.

Unfortunately--

All her interests are now in eating it.

Lu Guogong's mansion allowed her to have enough food and clothing, and had enough energy to support her career. In addition, she had tasted some delicacies in Zou's mansion before, so now she only feels that she lives in a different place, and there is not much difference in other things. .

When Lu Wanzhen heard her words, he immediately snorted in his heart, but replied on the face:

"I said it is reasonable, it is reasonable, you just stay."

Hearing her arrogant tone, Le Ning couldn't help feeling a little sad.

so worried...

It is said that pride makes people regress, and Lu Wanzhen lives so arrogantly, what if he can't sit still as the prince in another world and is pushed down by someone?

never mind--

I'd better try to open a restaurant myself.

If he makes a lot of money in the future, let Lu Wanzhen discuss it with Zhima, and occasionally borrow Zhima's body to eat and drink by his side for a few days, and he can take him in.

Le Ning gave a big tick to the plan of "raising the prince" in his heart.

Seeing her frowning, Lu Wanzhen seemed to be worried about something, couldn't help but smiled, and asked, "Why, are you worried about me?"

Le Ning nodded.

Then he added: "But I have already figured out a solution."

Lu Wanzhen was quite curious, and raised his eyebrows: "Oh?"

Le Ning only blinked and didn't speak, pretending to keep it a secret.

Lu Wanzhen was tickled by her teasing, and wanted to do something after knocking him down, but it's a pity that it's inconvenient everywhere in the Duke's mansion, and she can't do anything.

Thinking about it made me a little worried.

In a few days, she will go to the south with the officials. The lower reaches of the Yellow River were flooded in summer, but now that it is autumn, she needs to go with the officials to see the flood control and disaster relief.

After this trip, I will not be able to come back for three or two months.

Before Lu Wanzhen left, he began to miss Le Ning.

She sighed quietly in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face, she only said to Le Ning:

"Look at what you like in this tank, and make something delicious."

Le Ning nodded and agreed.

If we say that the freshest way to cook this fish is to steam it.

People who live by the sea use seafood as their food and fish as their meal. The most delicious and original flavor of any fish is best eaten by steaming it over water.

……

A quarter of an hour later.

Le Ning started a fire in the small kitchen in his courtyard. When fishing for fish, he found that the fish had a mouth like a long pipe, but it was straight when swimming.

It turned out to be a pipe fish.

Le Ning was a little surprised, but she didn't change her original intention. She cut the pipe fish into pieces and put them in the steamer. She went to wash her hands. There was almost no smell of fresh fish, which made her extremely satisfied.

I even want to give extra meals to the old and young in the Duke's Mansion tonight.

Just when the fish in the pot was about to be steamed, a figure flashed silently in the room, and then raised his hand to wrap around her waist, pressing the heat against her back.

Le Ning knew who it was without looking back, and joked with a smile:

"Your Highness, are you sending this servant away again to take advantage of me?"

She didn't realize at all that after seeing Lu Wanzhen for a long time, her cold and rigid appearance had faded a lot, and the smile on her face had increased a lot.

The people behind did not speak.

Le Ning felt rather strange, and looked back——

The next moment, she opened her eyes in surprise.

The person behind him didn't wear the usual vermilion uniform, but changed into another...

A red and white skirt.

The correct snow-colored top made her skin look extraordinarily fair and tender, and the bright red hem under the chest-length corset was dazzling red. Her face, which was so beautiful in the past, seemed to be shining now, and the red mole at the end of her eyes seemed to be able to burn Like a bystander, the obsidian-lit phoenix eyes were smiling like a brook.

Le Ning looked at it in a daze for a moment.
