The hot pot is steaming, gurgling and boiling, with whitebait and drunken crab as the base, full of white fish, pheasant, yellow mutton, deer tendon, winter bamboo shoots, sea vegetables...... This is called "Yipinguo". The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info. Updated the fastest

Guan Zhuofan opened a "sake" with his own hands, poured it for the Ming family with his own hands, and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, please!" ”

This "sister-in-law", somewhat with a little bit of laughter, Ming's face was slightly red, one hand picked up the wine glass, the other hand held it, after a slight gesture, put it to his mouth, and slowly dried.

With a slight breath, he put down his wine glass and said with a smile: "This 'sake' is really ...... Wine lives up to its name! Lightly, this ...... is very 'clear'. ”

Guan Zhuofan refilled the cup for Ming's and warned her with a smile: "Don't underestimate it!" This wine, although the taste is light, but it has stamina! If you drink too much, you can get drunk before you know it! It's better to take it easy. ”

"Thank you for reminding me to put the wine jug here, I should do the work of pouring wine."

"Not necessarily! Or I come to my sister-in-law to work weekdays, I rarely have the opportunity to serve you! ”

This sentence was even more ridiculous, Ming's face turned red, his head drooped slightly, and he stopped talking.

"Ting Tian is here with us," Guan Zhuofan asked, "How long have you been here?" ”

"Not long," said Ming, "I sat down with her, and she got up and took her leave, but a little more than a quarter of an hour!" ”

After thinking about it, "I didn't say anything special, it was just ...... Well, on weekdays, they are very grateful for the care of the prince, and they are very grateful, this ...... Well, 'Unauthorized Pond Mansion', to convey to the prince the gratitude of His Majesty the Emperor, and, well, the gift is too thin, this, uh, 'small things...... Talk and will'. ”

Although the explanation clan already knows how to use words like "food" and "drink", it is still a little difficult to relay the original words of the heir of Teda.

"You didn't say you wanted to see me, did you?"

"Nope!" Ming said, "She knows that the prince will be busy all day this morning to inspect and comfort the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and to inspect and comfort the Advisory Committee in the afternoon." ”

"She knows? Didn't you tell her? ”

"No, she knew it before she crossed the North Street."

Tingtian's heir came over at three o'clock in the afternoon, and since she knew Guan Zhuofan's itinerary today, she naturally knew that Guan Zhuofan was not at home at this point, and she didn't say hello in advance, so this "visit" not only meant to meet, but simply deliberately avoided meeting.

"Did you say anything else?"

Ming thought for a moment, "No. ”

Seeing Guan Zhuofan groaning, the Ming clan felt slightly uneasy, "Lord Wang, Tingtian Servant came over this time...... Is there anything wrong with what I did? ”

"Where do you want to go?" Guan Zhuofan smiled, "Where can there be anything wrong?" ”

After a pause, "I'm thinking, but just a case of wine, how much is it worth?" Actually, Lord Lao sent it over in person? Isn't it a little strange that you don't want to see me? ”

"Ah...... Be...... I also think...... It's kind of weird......"

After a moment of contemplation, Ming said, "Lord Wang, I don't know if what I think is right?" I think so......."

Speaking of which, he looked at Guan Zhuofan and stopped.

Guan Zhuofan said in an encouraging tone: "Let's talk about it! ”

"What does the court notor mean," said Ming, "isn't it...... Want the prince to 'pay a return visit' to them? If I meet with the prince today, the prince seems to be ...... Don't have to 'return visit'? ”

Guan Zhuofan's fingers were lightly tapped on the table, and he smiled: "Sister-in-law!" ”

"Really?" Ming smiled, "I guessed randomly, I guessed if I didn't want to!" ”

After a pause, "I think, it's not difficult for the court to see the prince, but if the prince doesn't go to them, and Emperor Sakura wants to see the prince, it's difficult, isn't it?" ”

"Not bad!" Guan Zhuofan said with a smile, "Sister-in-law is really a female Zhuge ! ”

Ming touched his face, "The prince laughed at me!" My face is red! ”

"That's the wine that I told you earlier, this wine has stamina!"

After a joke or two, Ming asked, "What's that......?" Will the prince 'pay a return visit'? ”

Guan Zhuofan pondered for a moment and said, "Go, I still have to go." However, there are only a few days left before the year, and there are still a lot of things to do, so it must be unavailable. ”

Ming nodded and said, "Yes! Years ago, the prince had a lot of things to do, and they were all big things, so he really couldn't be separated! Such as...... Our Lady of the Empress Dowager prayed for Emperor Wenzong's meditation, and her merits have been completed, and in a few days, it will be time to return to Beijing from Tianjin, right? ”

Guan Zhuofan glanced at her, "Yes." ”

"Ouch! It's been a whole year! Ming sighed and said, "It's not easy to be sincere!" The princes and dependents who come and go on weekdays, each of them said that the merit done by the Queen Mother is great! ”

Guan Zhuofan's heart moved, and he pretended to be inadvertent, "It's really not easy, huh, do you all say that?" ”

"Of course!" Ming said, "Everyone says that the Queen Mother is truly amazing! She is not seventy or eighty, her heart is like water, she went to 'retreat', she was at the most proud, she walked to Tianjin alone, locked herself up, and 'prayed' for Emperor Wenzong! The throne behind the yellow curtain was set aside; 'The Queen Mother is raised by the world', and she has also put it aside! ”

After a pause, "She's only in her early thirties, 'Spring and Autumn is in full bloom'!" Isn't it great to be able to endure such cold and loneliness? What's more, she is a lively temper, and she has always liked to move and not like to be quiet, which is even more rare! ”

Guan Zhuofan is calm on the surface, but his mood is extremely complicated: can't tell whether he is happy or sad? Is it melancholy, is it ashamed?

Hey, the information from the Military Adjustment Office does not include the private words of the "prince's family"!

"Everyone said," Ming continued, "since the founding of this dynasty, no queen or queen mother has made such great merits!" This is not comparable to taking out 10,000 or 20,000 yuan of body money to put on a golden body for the Buddha and Bodhisattva, and add a little lamp oil! ”

Guan Zhuofan was suddenly alert: According to this, although the empress dowager of the two palaces has "removed the curtain", after Cixi returned to Luan, her prestige, to a certain extent, is even higher than before she left Beijing!

He came up with a thought: If I knew this, I wouldn't have to "wash" her!

It was a very shameful thought, and after it came to his mind, he instinctively wanted to press it back, but unfortunately, he couldn't press it back.

Guan Zhuofan smiled bitterly in his heart: God is also me, and ghosts are also me!
