Chapter 360 Gentleman
Princess Rongyang, Zhu Huaishu, discussed the major plan with Zhu Huaizhen and then acted decisively.
Zhu Huaishu only took away the Chidan Army, as well as the most elite parts of the Macheng Army, Yangcheng Army, Fancheng Army, and Yicheng Army.
Zhu Huaizhen continued to listen to operas as usual and lived a comfortable life.
Today's drink is "Peach Blossom Fan", paired with a rich and colorful cup of sesame salt, bamboo shoots, chestnuts, loofah kernels, walnut kernels, spring immortal seagull, swan osmanthus, rose and brine, and Lu'an sparrow tongue bud tea.
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.
Tomorrow's show is "On the Wall Horse", and according to Chen Ming'an's request, it is paired with Mengding Fairy Mountain Stone Bud Tea.
Afraid of dew startling the sleeping birds, the wind ruffles the courtyard locust trees. Behold the Milky Way slanting across the steps, unmoved by the wispy dust. Moon, you are as thin as a bow, half a toad, yet bright as a mirror, reflecting the universe, yet cold as ice, soaking the twelve celestial peaks. Forbidden from the auspicious mist, I offer my deepest worship to the full moon. It's convenient for you, and it's not a hindrance to me. Deeply worship you, Chang'e, for not being jealous of your beauty, how dare you remain shrouded in mist and cloud for even a moment.
The day after tomorrow is "Changsheng Dian". Lou Li ordered whatever he wanted and also specified the tea, which was Dongting Biluochun.
Alas, no one likes her tea.
Please ask, ask, the flower calyx is delicate, I'm afraid, afraid, afraid, it's not as better as the flowers in the east of the building, yes, yes, yes, yes, that plum branch once occupied the first spring, and why should I be entangled by green willows, please, please, please, please be sincere to my old friend, so as not to be blamed for my lack of love, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, I bid farewell to the past, your kindness is as high as the sky, I pay my deep affection from the beginning, please, please, please, you can see the old things by yourself, tears are thrown away.
The day after tomorrow was the performance of "Romance of the West Chamber", and Tu Mi also joined the audience.
The warm, mellow jade wine, white and cool like water, is likely filled with tears of longing. I fear I won't even be able to eat the food before me, my stomach filled with resentment. "Empty fame in a snail's horn, tiny profit in a fly's head," the mandarin ducks are torn apart. One on this side, the other on that, each sighing deeply.
Tu Mi doesn't like drinking tea, he only drinks warm mountain spring water, which is too boring.
"Chen Ming'an, you brought back the gentleman's fragrance." Zhu Huaizhen said softly.
The main ingredients of gentleman incense are agarwood, jasmine flowers, and fresh cypress leaves. The production process is relatively simple. First, the agarwood is ground into extremely small particles. Next, dried jasmine flowers and fresh cypress leaves are stacked into a round cake, with the cypress leaves on top and the jasmine flowers on the bottom. The cake is then tightly pressed together. The agarwood particles are then pressed into the jasmine flowers, creating a thin, portable incense cake.
"Zhenzhen, I still like Junzixiang." Chen Mingan said with a smile.
"Zhen'er, why don't you smell what kind of incense I used?" Lou Li looked resentful.
"The fragrance of flowers." Zhu Huaizhen curled his lips and rolled his eyes.
Why make trouble at this critical moment?
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.
"Zhenzhen, these days, I have been thinking about it and I still think I should be a gentleman." Chen Mingan suddenly stood up, bowed deeply, and was reluctant to leave.
This may be a farewell forever.
"Then just be a gentleman." Zhu Huaizhen said lazily.
Before agreeing to Princess Pingyang's request, Zhu Huaizhen didn't realize that this person was causing him all kinds of trouble.
