Chapter 69 Once Upon a Time
"Alright, Prince Chen. Please pay more attention to Zhen'er and don't just focus on your romance with Princess Xincheng. Besides, you destroyed Zhen'er's Nanwu, so you should take care of Zhen'er, just like a real brother and sister." Lou Li deliberately emphasized the word "brother and sister" with a cold smile.
"It's a pity that the commander of the Jinyiwei is worried." Chen Ming'an ordered them to leave.
"Zhen'er, if you have any difficulties, find a way to tell me. If the Duke Dingguo's Mansion can't support you, I'm still here." Lou Li ignored Chen Ming'an's icy face and smiled faintly at Zhu Huaizhen. The ice and snow in his peach blossom eyes melted, and a hint of spring love rippled in his eyes.
Tsk tsk, Zhu Huaizhen was very happy in front of such a beautiful woman, and waved goodbye to Lou Li.
However, after Lou Li left, Zhu Huaizhen stopped smiling.
She followed Chen Ming'an all the way to Liuting Tower, quietly.
"Zhenzhen, don't you have anything to say?" Chen Ming'an rubbed his forehead and felt tired.
"Chen Ming'an, what can I say? Are you saying that Haitang deserves to die? Haitang is definitely not the kind of person who would cause trouble for the master. Or are you saying that the old guard of your Duke Dingguo's Mansion is so bold and presumptuous? Anyway, you want to defend everything, but you only think that I am vicious. What can I say?" Zhu Huaizhen stretched his face and his tone gradually became cold.
"Really..." Chen Mingan hesitated to speak.
In the past, Zhu Huaizhen was the one chirping like a lark.
Chen Mingan didn't have to say anything, Zhu Huaizhen automatically became happy.
Now, Zhu Huaizhen is unwilling to get along with Chen Mingan.
After entering Liuting Tower, Zhu Huaizhen glanced at Chen Mingan and didn't care anymore.
This Liuting Tower is also the residence of Duke Dingguo, and Zhu Huaizhen has no right to drive Chen Mingan away.
However, the moment Zhu Huaizhen saw Tu Mi, he felt completely relieved.
It’s good that Tu Mi can still stay in Duke Dingguo’s Mansion.
She, Zhu Huaizhen, is neither good at literature nor martial arts, and she really needs Tu Mi.
"Really..." Chen Mingan sighed softly.
In fact, Chen Mingan really wanted Zhu Huaizhen to keep him and give him a cup of hot tea.
Once upon a time, Zhu Huaizhen learned how to make tea specifically for Chen Mingan.
At that time, Zhu Huaizhen arranged a gilded silver teapot, a gilded silver teacup, a gilded silver tea grinder, a gilded silver tea basket, a gilded silver tortoise box, a gilded silver salt stand, and a glazed teacup on a rectangular table. Then, with his sleeves slightly rolled up, he took the fire tongs in his left hand and took a steamed green tea cake from the gilded silver teapot. He placed it on the stove to bake, and with his right hand, he fanned the fire with a yellow kesi silk fan embroidered with a phoenix perched on a phoenix tree.
Zhu Huaizhen was sitting on his knees, with his brows lowered, looking gentle and lovely.
Next, she smashed the baked tea cakes into pieces with a wooden mallet and placed them in a gilded silver tea basket. Then, she picked up a gilded silver tea grinder, crushed the broken tea cakes into powder, sifted it into a fine powder with a gilded silver tea sieve, and carefully poured it into a gilded silver tortoise box.
Every step reveals the beauty of a peaceful and tranquil life.
"Ming'an, eat less salt, okay?" Zhu Huaizhen suddenly raised his furry head, his dimples spinning and his eyes sparkling.
For the first boil, boil clean water and add a little snow salt, the water droplets are like fish eyes or crab eyes; for the second boil, the salt water boils again and the bubbles are like gushing springs; for the third boil, scoop out a ladle of water for later use, then hold the bamboo tongs and stir it in the center of the tea pot to form a vortex, then scoop a spoonful of tea powder along the vortex and pour it in, the water vapor is like rising waves.
Finally, Zhu Huaizhen gently pushed the glass teacup to Chen Mingan, then held up his rosy cheeks and smiled foolishly.
"Chen Ming'an, it's not the same as before. I'm tired." Seeing that Chen Ming'an didn't leave, Zhu Huaizhen had to order him to leave.
After he finished speaking, Chen Mingan felt a wave of sadness in his heart.
He suppressed his sorrow, turned and left, thinking that he was the same as before.
