Chapter 655 656 Cooking for His Woman
Liu Ji sighed, "However, the power of the officials in the capital cannot be ignored. If the civil officials compete with each other, it will be a big deal. Even if the princess has an army of 100,000, she is still slightly inferior to the crown prince. Besides, orthodoxy is orthodoxy. Who has ever seen a crown princess in history?"
These are all treasonous remarks. Liu Ji's mutterings sounded like the buzzing of a mosquito.
Qin Yao raised her eyebrows, "But that's an army of 100,000."
"Orthodoxy is orthodoxy." Liu Ji clicked his tongue and insisted.
Qin Yao lowered her lips, as if she was muttering, or as if she was declaring again, "What is orthodoxy? Orthodoxy is only on the edge of the sword! Only within the range of the cannon!"
She suddenly smiled again, feeling a little proud. It seemed that she had not chosen the wrong person.
After all, that was an army of 100,000!
Liu Ji realized that women always favor women.
But looking at his wife's smug expression, could it be that she has already imagined herself wearing the yellow robe?
If, he meant if, if the woman in front of him really wanted the eldest princess to become the crown princess, then it was not impossible for him to enter the court to assist Her Royal Highness the eldest princess.
Therefore, Liu Ji ended this so-called orthodox dispute without any psychological burden, picked up the ribs and liver in his hand and waved them towards the gate of Qin Mansion in front of him, smiled dotingly as if he could not do anything to you, and said:
"As long as you are happy, my lady."
Go home and cook for his woman!
Qin Yao: "..."
Their parents finally returned home after disappearing for a day. Qin Yao and Liu Ji felt the children's enthusiasm as soon as they entered the house.
Liu Ji caught Awang and went to the kitchen to cook. Yin Le brought the children to the hall to find Qin Yao to hand in their apologies, one for each person, and each should be no less than two thousand words.
While drinking the snacks brought by her apprentice, Qin Yao pretended to read the self-review with a serious look, which made Dalang and his two siblings very nervous, fearing that the self-review was not profound enough and would not pass.
In fact, Qin Yao could read ten lines at a glance and was thinking that Dalang and Erlang's handwriting was improving.
This kid Erlang even showed off a few flowery words. I guess it was because he was too excited when he was writing the profound part of his self-review.
Sanlang's handwriting was the same as always, as sloppy and casual as a chick pecking at rice, but Qin Yao was already very satisfied that the little guy could finish a 2,000-word review.
After all, for this kid who is not interested in doing anything else except eating, being able to write a 2,000-word review without repetition is already a huge improvement.
Si Niang is quite conventional, which is her usual style. She can do a little bit of everything, but never strives to be the best in anything.
With a brother like Erlang who is a real genius in the field of high-school English, the little girl’s precious sleep will have to be sacrificed in order to compete for the first place.
She just turned eight years old and still has a lot of growth to do. Her father said that children need to sleep more and eat more, and it is best to eat and sleep first, so that they can grow tall and strong.
Qin Yao put down the self-review, met four pairs of anxious eyes, and nodded: "Okay, you have passed, you have made progress."
Liu Ji came in with the prepared dishes and placed them in the small flower room next to the dining room, "Wash your hands and eat!"
The children looked at their mother and saw her smiling and nodding. They immediately ran to the yard with joy and washed their hands with the water that Yin Le had just drawn from the vat.
Awang served the last dish, and the family of eight sat down one by one. The food smelled so good that the head of the family just had to pick up the chopsticks and immediately start eating.
Sanlang was holding the sweet and sour pork ribs in his mouth, feeling so happy that he wanted to cry.
After dinner, Liu Ji began to prepare the things he would bring to the teacher tomorrow. However, after he had packed up, Qin Yao sent him back to square one with a word "I can't bring it".
However, Liu Ji was an optimist, and no setbacks seemed to be able to defeat him. He continued to prepare the ingredients for cooking tomorrow morning, then took a shower and went to bed.
Everyone in the family knew that they were going to meet Gong Liangliao the next morning, and they cared about him silently, just waiting for his parents to come back with good news.
At the hour of Mao, the sound of drums announcing the opening of the market was heard from the tower at the gate of Nanshifang Market, and a new day began.
The curfew in various markets was lifted, and the vendors who had been waiting under the archways immediately rushed into the three major markets, carrying their breakfasts.
At this time, all the civil and military officials who were ready to go came out of their homes. Those who lived nearby took sedan chairs or walked, while those who lived far away took carriages. They gathered on the moat bridge under the gate of Ziwei Palace and entered the Ziwei Palace for the morning court.
On the small bridge on the east side, Qin Yao yawned and looked at the hazy Ziwei Palace in front of her with tearful eyes. It seemed as if a layer of filter was turned on. She seemed to have returned to her daily life of punching in at work.
"Madam, how do you leave?"
After the couple crossed the bridge, Liu Ji held the lunch box wrapped in a cloth bag, and secretly observed while pretending to be relaxed and asking the dazed person next to him.
There were many people who got up early. The northern city east of Ziwei Palace was inhabited by eunuchs and princes. When the palace gates opened, there were so many people that it seemed like a tide of workers entering the Foxconn factory.
The couple stayed together with the vendors who came to sell breakfast, blending in perfectly.
Qin Yao looked up at the luxurious gate of the Imperial Master's Mansion across the street.
The guard at the gate had just changed shifts. The palace guards had been on duty all night, and as dawn broke, they thought there was nothing to worry about, so they changed shifts and went to rest.
Maybe they came to guard at noon. Qin Yao thought secretly, after all, when she came here at noon yesterday, these imperial guards were already guarding the gate of the Imperial Master's Mansion.
Before leaving the Imperial Master's Mansion yesterday, she stayed in the busy kitchen for a while and got a lot of information about the Imperial Master's daily life.
Si Kong Jian is now praying for the country. From the hour of Mao to the hour of Si, a two-hour continuous ceremony of summoning gods is to be performed.
They had breakfast only after the ceremony, and then rested until noon. After some tea and snacks, they began the three-hour long ceremony of worshiping the gods.
The Youshi ceremony ends and we take a short break before having dinner.
At the hour of Xu, one burns incense and bathes to enter a state of meditation. It is not until the beginning of the hour of Hai that one burns incense to send the gods off and then enters meditation to personally send the gods on a journey to heaven.
Therefore, this period of time in the morning is the time of the day when Pu Yuan is least likely to be noticed in the Chinese Normal University.
Qin Yao motioned for Liu Ji to follow, and took him to continue bypassing the patrolling guards, and finally came to the back alley that they had visited yesterday.
By climbing over the high wall in this alley, you can reach the "Peacock Garden" of the National Master, which is very close to Puyuan.
At this hour, the peacocks in the peacock garden were being fed breakfast by their servants. Qin Yao listened for a while against the wall, and after confirming that the servants had left, she immediately threw Liu Ji against the wall.
Liu Ji was caught off guard and almost rolled off the wall.
"Lie down!"
Qin Yao's warning sounded outside the wall. Liu Ji hurriedly steadied himself and lay obediently on the top of the wall.
Qin Yao came to his side without any sound, like a cat, and grabbed Liu Ji by the collar. The two of them jumped into the peacock garden, hid behind the rockery, waited for a wave of patrolling guards, swaggered around the well-fed and energetic golden peacock, and ran towards Puyuan.
