Chapter 321: Or to spy...bullshit!
Crab stuffed orange, the crab roe and crab meat are picked out and stuffed into freshly picked oranges.
The orange aroma and fresh crab complement each other perfectly, and the dish is presented like autumn fruits.
Chrysanthemum hot pot, the clear broth is rolling in the white jade hot pot, with the stretched snow-white chrysanthemum petals floating on it.
Surrounded by thinly sliced fish slices, tender chicken slices, and seasonal vegetables, it is elegant and refreshing, in line with the style of literati.
Seasonal dishes include maple leaf roasted venison, simmered bamboo shoots with matsutake mushrooms, and cinnamon-flavored chestnut cake.
There are also various exquisite side dishes, such as amber peach kernels, rouge goose breast, pickled duck intestines, and candied autumn pear slices...
The fine wine is the golden wind and jade dew that comes after the beginning of autumn in Fengjing.
The recipes of each restaurant are slightly different. The one at Songtao Pavilion is served in a warm celadon wine pot, and the wine is light golden in color.
When poured into the cup, the aroma is clear with the fragrance of flowers and fruits, and a faint scent of medicinal herbs.
It has a mellow taste and a sweet aftertaste, a rare fine wine in season.
After three rounds of drinks, the atmosphere gradually became warmer, and the previous tension seemed to disappear quietly.
As we talked, the topic always revolved around the differences between the north and the south.
Xiao Yunshuo talked about the vastness of the Shufeng grassland, the generosity and hospitality of the herdsmen, and the grandeur of the heavenly worship ceremony;
Qin Jingzhan depicts the gentleness of the Jiangnan water town, the exquisiteness of the gardens, and the pleasant music of stringed instruments.
The topic turned to the famous scholar Yan Huaichuan.
With recollection and admiration, Yan Zhibai tells the story of his father's journey alone into the grassland, where he lived and ate with the Hu tribe and recorded the local customs and practices.
There are also various legendary experiences of crossing the Gobi Desert in the Western Regions and exploring the relics of ancient countries.
Even Qin Zhaoyue, who had other thoughts, had a glimmer of strangeness in his eyes.
I was fascinated, but to be there...
No, Qin Zhaoyue has a very clear understanding of himself and cannot bear that hardship.
But as a story, it is indeed a good dish to accompany wine.
When they were drunk, Qin Zhaoyue suddenly stood up, as if to reach the wine jug in the distance.
Unexpectedly, he let out a cry of "Ouch" and his body leaned limply to the side.
Yan Zhibai, who was already about four or five parts drunk, subconsciously gave him a hand.
Looking down, he saw that the Sixth Princess' cheeks were flushed, her eyes were blurred, her breathing suddenly stopped, and she even forgot to let go.
"No...I can't do it anymore," Qin Zhaoyue was not polite at all. She leaned on his support, holding her forehead with her right hand, looking weak and drunk.
The voice was a bit lazy and hoarse, soft and sticky, "The alcohol is taking effect~ I need to go out for a walk to get rid of the alcohol~~"
Seeing this, the fifth prince Qin Jingzhan on the opposite side shook his head helplessly.
Sixth sister is really carefree. Is she getting together with some good friends?
Really, she has to ask her royal brother to help her clean up the mess.
Just as he was about to agree to go out with her, his fourth sister suddenly pinched his arm hard under the table.
Hiss...it hurts!
Qin Jingzhan felt pain, but at least he didn't cry out. He looked around in confusion.
Qin Zhaoshu didn't even look at him, just thinking it wasn't her doing. He smiled slightly and suggested sympathetically:
"Sister Zhaoyue can't hold her liquor well, so she needs someone to look after her.
Mr. Yan is very thoughtful, so why not... invite Mr. Yan to accompany you for a while?"
Qin Zhaoshu was convinced that his sixth sister was not as absurd as she appeared to be, and that she must be very thoughtful.
This time, he pretended to be drunk in order to take advantage of the opportunity to be alone with Yan Zhibai and extract information, such as the real purpose of the Second Princess Shufeng coming to Fengjing?
Compared to the secretive Xiao Yunshuo, Mr. Yan, who looks simple and enthusiastic, is indeed a good breakthrough point.
Qin Zhaoyue smiled secretly in her heart. Fourth sister was so awesome, but her face was still delicate.
Without giving others a chance to speak, she held onto the table, stood up shakily, and pretended to walk out.
"this……"
Yan Zhibai was confused. He didn't know whether to sit down or follow.
Just as Qin Zhaoyue was about to pass by Yan Zhibai, her feet suddenly became unstable and her body fell towards him again.
"careful!"
His actions were faster than his brain. The next moment, Yan Zhibai helped the drunk Sixth Princess up again.
Qin Zhaoyue raised her blurry drunken eyes and took a quick glance at the handsome and gentle face.
Her long eyelashes fluttered like butterfly wings, and her eyes moved with a hint of shy charm.
boom!
Yan Zhibai had never seen such a scene before, and his head felt like thunder.
Heaven and earth are my witnesses. When he was caught off guard and saw the princess about to fall, he just instinctively stretched out his arms.
But now... now...
Through the thin fabric, I could clearly feel the warmth and softness of the woman's arm.
A fresh and elegant fragrance mixed with the scent of wine wafted into my nose.
Yan Zhibai only felt a buzzing sound in his head, and hot blood instantly rushed to his cheeks and ears!
He seemed to be scalded. He wanted to take his hand away but didn't dare. He froze in place, his handsome face flushed red.
Like a cooked shrimp, even the breathing became rapid.
Two blushes spread from her cheeks to her neck, and were particularly obvious under the light.
"I'm so... sorry..."
Qin Zhaoyue seemed to have just realized his loss of composure. His voice was soft and sticky, with a hint of drunkenness, but he was almost bursting with joy in his heart.
I thought he was a weak scholar, who controlled his strength when he fell, and the other party caught him very steadily.
When I touched his biceps and triceps, they were bulging!
Yes, Yan Zhibai inherited his father's will and traveled to many places since he was a child.
He also said during the conversation just now that he knows some sword skills. Although he is not a martial artist, it seems that he has practiced a lot.
She looks thin when she's dressed, but looks chubby when she's undressed. The villain in Qin Zhaoyue's heart almost screamed out loud:
This is a pure profit!
With the help of Yan Zhibai, he managed to stand firmly, "I really can't handle the alcohol, I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, Mr. Yan..."
She lowered her head slightly, revealing her snow-white neck, which made her look even more pitiful.
Yan Zhibai's heart was beating like a drum, and he stammered, "It's okay... I'll accompany Your Highness... for a walk..."
The last two words were uttered so softly that they were almost inaudible.
Qin Zhaoshu: ...
The corners of her mouth couldn't stop twitching slightly, and she silently raised her hand to cover half of her face.
What about gathering information and obtaining intelligence? This is clearly naked seduction!
Sixth sister, can you act even more fake?
However, Xiao Yunshuo on the opposite side never said anything to stop him.
Did they already have Yan Zhibai in their grasp, or was he really just an irrelevant marginal figure?
Qin Zhaoyue walked out stubbornly, and Yan Zhibai didn't dare to let her leave like that.
With a red face and at a loss, he followed her half a step behind, his eyes glued to her back.
I don't know if he was drunk or his brain was not working properly because of the shock of the scene just now, but he didn't think about where it would be his turn to escort.
Not to mention that there are other people's brothers and sisters here, there is a whole team of guards outside.
Under Meng Jian's gloomy gaze, the two slowly walked down the stairs.
After leaving Songtao Pavilion, the two of them joined the bustling crowd and walked slowly.
Qin Zhaoyue walked very slowly, so he naturally wouldn't walk far or go to remote places.
After all, the outside world is in turmoil now, and she is simply relying on her guess that there must be a powerful Divine Martial Realm guarding in secret.
Three royal heirs, plus a princess from another country, are they really relying on that useless Meng Jian to protect them?
It's not even at the fourth level, so it's hard for it to be cannon fodder in high-end games.
Even if people don't recognize her as the Sixth Princess, the combination of handsome men and beautiful women always attracts the attention of passers-by.
The key point was that he glanced at Yan Zhibai's face more often, much more...
Yes, how handsome could the man be who could make her, the Sixth Princess, lower herself and take action in person? Just imagine it.
Qin Zhaoyue couldn't help feeling a little jealous, and led his men around a turn and into a small alley.
