Chen Ming'an was the Imperial Scholar whom Princess Ronghua, Zhu Huaizhen, had set her eyes on in the Golden Imperial Hall.
However, he refused the bestowed marriage, saying, "Your Hi...
Chapter 458 Proof
"Qiu Niang, prepare a BMW luxury car." Zhu Huaizhen thought about it again before going out.
"Qiuniang, please cherish the fragrance of flowers." Tu Mi whispered.
The phrase "Xihuaxiang" (cherishing the fragrance of flowers) is taken from a poem. Last night, the rain was light and the wind was strong, and I couldn't sleep off the hangover. I asked the person rolling up the curtains, but they said the crabapple tree was still the same. Do you know? Do you know? They should be green, fat, and red, thin. Coincidentally, there are two kinds of flowers in Xihuaxiang: the lotus is fat, and the saffron is thin.
The main ingredients of Xihuaxiang are lotus, saffron, agarwood, and dendrobium. First, take fresh lotus flowers, using only the petals, and roast them half-dry. Next, take fresh or dried saffron and roll them whole inside the half-dry lotus flowers, pressing them tightly and cutting them into small pieces. Next, use the original agarwood leaves to cut them into the same size as the lotus rolls. Use warm dendrobium juice to seal the two leaves together, then dry them in the shade and roast them again. It can be used by either decocting or rendering.
The fragrance of flowers is gentle, sweet and has a unique charm.
Alas, her Highness is arguing with Queen Du even though they have never met each other.
The carriage rumbled on, heading straight for Jingzhao Prefecture.
"Tu Mi, what's that smell?" Zhu Huaizhen covered his nose and couldn't help frowning.
Tu Mi was too lazy to answer. Her prince was too pretentious.
This is clearly the fragrance of flowers, which her prince actually likes very much.
Ba, feeling puzzled.
The ingredients of the flower fragrance are sandalwood, peach blossoms, roses, lilies, lotus flowers, cloves, and musk. First, grind the Indian old mountain sandalwood into a fine powder. Then, soak fresh peach blossoms, dried roses, fresh lilies, and fresh white lotus flowers in a musk solution overnight. Then, pound the mixture into a fragrant paste and mix it with the fine sandalwood powder.
There are two kinds of Huajianxiang: fragrance pills and fragrance dew. To make fragrance pills, add appropriate amount of honey. To make fragrance dew, filter the solution with gauze.
When he arrived at Jingzhao Prefecture, Zhu Huaizhen directly revealed his identity as Princess Ronghua.
Finally, the Jingzhao prefect, wearing a veil, looked at her for a long time and said slowly, "Madam Zhu, how are you going to prove that you are Princess Ronghua?"
Zhu Huaizhen sighed for a long time and felt a headache.
Could it be that the Jingzhao prefect did this on purpose?
Forget it, just prove it if you want.
"May I ask the Prefect of Jingzhao, how can I prove that I am Princess Ronghua so that you will believe me?" Zhu Huaizhen yawned repeatedly.
Hey, next time I go out, I have to eat, drink and sleep well.
"It is rumored that Princess Ronghua brought a troupe of opera performers wherever she went, and listened to operas wherever she went." The prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture put his hands behind his back, lost in thought.
Damn, this Jingzhao prefect is actually an honest man.
Forget it. Zhu Huaizhen asked Tu Mi to go to Jiangxue Tower and bring the troupe over.
So, Zhu Huaizhen picked a rose chair, sat quietly, and took a nap.
Qiu Niang was nervous and looked around the whole time.
About an incense stick of time later, Tu Mi hurried over with the opera troupe.
"Tu Mi, prepare some rock sugar and snow pear to moisten the monkeys for everyone. I don't want to listen to an opera that I'm not satisfied with." Zhu Huaizhen rubbed his eyes and said sullenly.
After he finished speaking, Tu Mi did as he was told.
In this way, after waiting for another stick of incense, the troupe officially appeared on stage.
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.
The troupe sang Zhu Huaizhen's favorite "Peach Blossom Fan".
In fact, Zhu Huaizhen deliberately let the troupe eat candied pears.
If we don't do this, the troupe will look too strong.
