Chapter 306 Pride

"It is said that the Yicheng uprising army is the main force, and the Northern Zhou is the supporting force." Tu Mi whispered.

That’s it, the Yicheng Uprising is finished.

After hearing this, Zhu Huaizhen actually stopped the opera.

"Your Highness, you can still sing a tragic play, otherwise they will have nothing to do and will feel even more anxious." Tu Mi said softly and gently hugged Zhu Huaizhen.

After saying that, Zhu Huaizhen curled his lips and rolled his eyes.

Tu Mi means soft-hearted, just like the withered petals of a pear tree.

So the young woman sang "Peach Blossom Fan", which Zhu Huaizhen liked.

Orioles chirp at dawn in the jade trees of Jinling, flowers bloom early in the Qinhuai waterside pavilions. Who knew the ice would melt so easily? I watched him build his red mansion, I watched him entertain guests, and I watched his mansion collapse. Here, amidst the mossy, blue tiles, I once slept in a dreamlike state; I've witnessed fifty years of rise and fall. No one in Wuyi Lane is surnamed Wang, ghosts cry at Mochou Lake, and owls roost on Phoenix Terrace. Dreams of the ruined mountains are the most real, the old land hard to lose. I don't believe this map is changing manuscripts. I'll compose a lament for Jiangnan, and sing it until I grow old.

However, Zhu Huaizhen couldn't muster any energy.

She sighed for several days, and Princess Pingyang had already led the Peony Army to station in Jiangcheng.

The so-called Peony Army's battle uniforms were embroidered with Princess Pingyang's favorite peony pattern.

"Tu Mi, I will be with you these days and we will never be separated." Zhu Huaizhen felt guilty.

Recently, Zhu Huaizhen lights incense to comfort the soul every night.

The main ingredients of soul-soothing incense are agarwood, benzoin, frankincense, angelica root, fennel, and honey. First, clean the agarwood and, while still damp, pound it in a stone mortar with the benzoin until it is coarsely granulated. Add the frankincense and pound it into a fine powder. Next, soak the angelica root and fennel in light salt water for three incense sticks, remove them, dry them, and grind them into a fine powder. Next, grind the two incense powders further until they are even finer. There are two ways to use this incense: one is to mold it into seal incense and burn it before bed to promote sleep. The other is to add an appropriate amount of honey to the final incense powder and make incense pills, about the size of mung beans. Then, use the frying method to force out the aroma. Use the remaining ash to make small pills, which can be taken with water before bed to soothe the mind and aid digestion.

Alas, how restless the soul of her prince is.

However, on the day Princess Pingyang came to visit, Zhu Huaizhen recovered as before.

Zhu Huaizhen was seen lying on a beauty couch surrounded by black lacquer and gold-painted scrolls of poetry and paintings, holding a round fan with a mahogany handle embroidered with pomegranates, cats and butterflies, moving it back and forth, his posture as lazy as a Persian cat.

As Princess Pingyang's footsteps approached, Zhu Huaizhen picked up a bowl of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall.

Sugar-heart abalone, pineapple sea cucumber, white shark lips, young deer tendons, claw meat, golden shark fin, ivory clam meat, spider fish glue, quail eggs, ham, pork ribs, clean winter bamboo shoots, king oyster mushrooms, chrysanthemum mushrooms, wild pine mushrooms, morels, snow bamboo fungus, Shaoxing wine, eighteen ingredients, eighteen delicious flavors. The moment you lift the lotus leaf covering the jar, the rich meaty aroma is so fragrant that even a Buddha would jump over the wall.

In an instant, a soft whip lifted Zhu Huaizhen's chin, making him unable to move.

Tu Mi was quick to grab the dagger and put it on Princess Pingyang's neck.

"Princess Ronghua, please answer my questions honestly." Princess Pingyang's eyes were dark circles and slightly red and swollen. She was obviously too tired and too sad.

"Princess Pingyang, I know what you want to ask. I didn't have any." Zhu Huaizhen posed like a peacock spreading its tail tail, looking extremely proud.
