Chapter 342: Men leave home, do not eat orchids
Although the former prince's abilities were somewhat mediocre, he was able to distinguish right from wrong.
But now, it is really strange that he has disregarded the interests of his country and family in order to compete with the third prince for the throne.
Even though he was praised by the world as a young talent, he also thought he was extremely smart.
But when the disaster struck, he didn't even notice it.
It seemed as if the court had changed overnight, so fast that people couldn't react.
The most important thing is that although the Huo family has some prestige among the people, Your Majesty and my father have been monarch and subject for many years and have a very close friendship. Even if his achievements are too great and threaten the emperor, we must wait until the world is pacified before settling the accounts.
At that time, the Huo family was needed to take charge due to external and internal troubles. If they dared to massacre the Marquis' Mansion after just repelling the Northern Mongols and having a short-lived victory, they would be destroying their own Great Wall.
Huo Qingchuan suddenly raised his eyes and said, "It's the Northern Mongolians! In the imperial city and palace, beside the crown prince, and beside His Majesty, there must be people from the Northern Mongolians!
Also, the one who knows the Crown Prince best should be the Third Prince. Contact the Third Prince to see if he has noticed anything."
Huo Qingchuan suddenly understood.
This couldn't possibly be the work of Dongyang's own people. Every decision they made was aimed at dividing and destroying Dongyang!
Huo Changan and Huo Zhanfeng were shocked.
They thought that the imperial city, which was the most solid and airtight, actually hid the Northern Mongols and directly attacked the center of power?
Even before, Huo Changan only speculated that someone in the capital had colluded with Beimeng, not...
But this is reasonable.
This way, everything is explained!
That is to say, the retreat of Northern Mongolia is only a temporary measure. It is possible that they will take advantage of his southward advance to make a comeback and attack the capital from both sides to control the Central Plains in one fell swoop.
No wonder the retreat was so smooth!
If it weren't for his elder brother's enlightenment, he would probably have led a large army to attack south.
In that case, let’s play the “Empty City Strategy” for him first!
There was a strong wind at the foot of the mountain, and a cool breeze blew.
Huo Qingchuan covered his mouth and coughed lightly a few times.
A warm fur coat was instantly draped over his shoulders.
"Husband, the noodles are ready. They have your favorite wild mushrooms in them. Please drink more soup later."
Li Yuzhi's eyes were shining, and beads of sweat were oozing from the tip of her nose.
Huo Qingchuan took out a handkerchief and wiped her.
"Thanks for your hard work."
Now she actually did something so extra, really, she suffered.
"What's so hard about this..."
Huo Changan and Huo Zhanfeng lowered their heads and smiled.
Li Yuzhi was embarrassed.
"Second brother, fourth brother, what dishes do you like to eat?"
"You all have tricks, just take it yourself." Huo Qingchuan glanced at his two younger brothers.
"Especially my fourth brother, he's good at cooking and sewing, better than any of us."
“Haha…” Huo Zhanfeng suppressed a laugh and nodded, “Menstrual belt…”
What's so funny!
Huo Changan looked at Li Yuzhi with an embarrassed face and resentment.
When did my sister-in-law become so nagging?
"I only told your elder brother..." Li Yuzhi said embarrassedly.
Who made my second brother also in the same tent, and his ears are so long!
Don't blame her, I really can't blame her.
"What's there to hide? The right things should be promoted." Huo Qingchuan looked at Li Yuzhi tenderly.
The women of the Huo family are all good people, so naturally they should be treated with respect.
Li Yuzhi looked at Huo Qingchuan and realized that her husband might also want to...
She was really just talking about her fourth brother and his wife, not hinting at him or anything!
I can't imagine what it would be like for a handsome husband to sew a menstrual belt with a needle...
Uh, she will, become beastly, right?
Li Yuzhi turned around and ran away.
"Brother, calm down, there are people around." Huo Zhanfeng raised his eyebrows and reminded.
Huo Qingchuan: "I don't treat you as human beings."
“…”
Huo Changan looked at Sang Ning, who was humming a song and bending over to look for something not far away.
Sure enough, she likes this kind of life.
"Brother, you are in the mountains. You must recover quickly. I am waiting for your help. There are many things I can't do."
Huo Qingchuan looked up at him and was about to say something when he saw Sang Ning running over.
"Big brother! Second brother! Let me show you something delicious! Dangdangdang... Have you seen this before? You haven't seen this before, right? Haha... Here, here, here, here!"
Sang Ning waved a handful of grass a few times, then gave each of them a handful.
When Huo Changan saw it, he realized that this was the horn fruit that was full of treasures.
She found it again.
"What about mine?"
"Give!"
Sang Ning stuffed one directly into his mouth, gave him the rest in his hand, and then ran away again.
Huo Changan chewed the fresh and tender horns in his mouth and said, "Brother, second brother, eat it, it's really delicious."
I've never eaten this thing.
Huo Qingchuan and Huo Zhanfeng looked at them carefully, then began to pick the small fruits and eat them.
"Yeah, it's really good."
"Of course, these are all good things and are good for your health." Huo Changan said.
Then he finished eating the fruit and began to eat the stems and leaves.
"Old Four, it's not that bad, is it?"
"Brother, you don't understand. These stems and leaves are more useful than the fruit!"
Yeah?
We can’t waste Fourth Brother’s wife’s kindness.
Huo Zhanfeng simply rolled it into a ball and stuffed it into his mouth.
Huo Qingchuan: "..."
Does it feel like a cow eating grass?
Lu Shishen finally dug out the roasted potatoes. They were so fragrant, just like the taste of his childhood.
He brought it wrapped in a large leaf.
"Master, what are you eating?"
The two young masters cannot eat anything carelessly now.
When he saw what it was, he said, "It turned out to be Mi Lan."
But this Qilan...
It’s okay for the master, the eldest son is still sick, and the second son... it’s okay for him to eat a few, but why did he even eat grass?
How urgent is this?
Seeing his troubled expression, Huo Qingchuan asked gently, "What's wrong, Doctor Lu? Is there something wrong with this fruit?"
"There's nothing wrong with it. It's a good thing. It can strengthen yang, invigorate qi and blood circulation, and treat kidney deficiency, spermatorrhea, and insufficient milk... There's a saying: A man should not eat radix ophiopogonis when he's away from home.
However, the young fruits are not that potent, so it’s okay to eat some, but don’t eat the stems and leaves, especially the roots.”
There was a dead silence.
For the first time, Lu Shishen saw that even the gentle eldest son had stopped smiling, and the three big men were silent, as if something serious had happened.
Lu Shishen thought he had said something wrong.
He carefully put down the potatoes and quietly went back to the original place to dig potatoes like a mouse leaving a hole.
"Haha! Look what good stuff I found again!" Sang Ning shouted.
There is an abundance of wild game on Dongshan Mountain, but why are there no people in the villages below? There are so many good things but no one is picking them.
Red Oxalis, also known as lucky clover, has roots that look like crystal radishes, which are sweet, crispy and delicious.
Sang Ning grunted and pulled out a bunch of them.
I took it back and no one saw me.
Only Lu Shishen and Huo Changan were talking there.
When I looked again, everyone else was eating with bowls of noodles behind a big tree!
"Why are you hiding your food? Don't you want to eat together?"
"Ning'er, don't worry about it. They have something to say. Come and eat something, then we'll be on our way."
Huo Changan served her some noodles.
"oh."
Sang Ning washed his hands with water drawn from the well at the village entrance, washed a few radishes as well, and sat down to eat noodles with a doubtful look on his face.
Huo Changan breathed a sigh of relief.
It's too late to ask Lu Shichen just now. Fortunately, the grasses Ning'er gave him to eat before were varied and had all kinds of uses.
I didn't specifically give him any kidney-tonifying food.
"Open your mouth. I'll give you a super, super...juicy little radish."
Sang Ning handed it to Huo Changan's mouth.
Huo Changan's mouth...slowly opened.
What is the effect of this?
He saw a head popping out from behind the tree.
"Hey, our little Si'er is so lucky..."
