The happy coffin is opened, all ghosts disperse, the princess comes from hell

Chapter 31 Ah Wu’s bad ghost’s conscience hurts again

Almost as soon as Qing Wu's voice came out, Xiao Chenyan's sword was unsheathed and slashed towards the grass.

"Don't cut!!"

Screams started.

The sword edge hovered, just an inch away from piercing the thing hiding in the grass.

As if frightened by the evil spirit and murderous intent on the sword, the thing didn't dare to run away anymore.

Xiao Chenyan raised his eyes and saw the woman running out with her skirt in hand. Her pretty face was still stained with mud, and her sleeves and skirt were covered with dirt and grass clippings, as if she had rolled in the ground.

"I told you to run!" Qing Wu strode over, grabbed a plant under the blade of the sword, and pulled it up like a carrot.

The people around were in an uproar when they saw this.

What Qing Wu pulled out was a ginseng. The ginseng was as thick as two fingers of an adult man, and its roots were extremely long, like a small person.

After being pulled out, the leaves drooped, and the whiskers on the body were still trembling.

Someone made a sharp cry: "Thousand-year-old ginseng!! No! I'm afraid it won't stop. This ginseng has already become a spirit!"

Qing Wu raised her eyes and saw a pig-headed face, and was startled: "Xiao Chenyan, have you gone hunting? Where did you get the pig spirit?"

"puff--"

The accompanying black armored guard couldn't help laughing.

Xiao Chenyan also had a smile flashing in his eyes.

The 'pig spirit' was filled with grief and anger: "What a pig spirit! It's me! Ah... my face is as beautiful as a flower..."

The 'pig spirit' was Situ Jing. Yesterday Qing Wu said that he was going to be in bad luck, so Situ Jing soaked grapefruit leaves in water for two hours and recited an exorcism spell all night long.

I have been on tenterhooks all day today, so I have to be extra careful when going out.

Never would he have thought that a hornet's nest would fall from the sky and sting him like a pig, even if his boat capsized in the gutter or he was walking on the road.

But the wasp seemed to have spotted him, and the others were safe and sound. He almost reincarnated on the spot!

At this moment, Situ Jing didn't care about his swollen face and stared at the ginseng essence with saliva, "Princess, I heard that the mountain spirit came to repay a favor. Is this a treasure given by it?"

Qing Wu hummed and shook the ginseng essence fiercely.

Seeing her disgraced face, Xiao Chenyan took out the brocade handkerchief to wipe her with, but paused and handed it over: "How did it get like this?"

Qingwu took the handkerchief and wiped it awkwardly.

Not only was it not wiped clean, the little face became dirtier and dirtier as it was wiped, making Xiao Chenyan frown frequently.

He took Qingnu's wrist and led her into the courtyard, and then ordered his servants to fetch water.

"I'll wash it later, and I'll plant this guy first."

Qing Wu originally wanted to plant it directly in the yard, but the ginseng spirit was too disobedient, so she simply asked someone to bring a flower pot, placed a ban on the pot, and threatened fiercely:

"If you don't want to live in the big courtyard, just give me a small dark room!"

After planting, she pushed the flower pot into Xiao Chenyan's hand and said, "Here you go, this is a thank you gift from the little mountain spirit."

"From now on, cut a beard and boil water to drink every day. It can relieve your cold syndrome."

Xiao Chenyan felt like he was being scratched somewhere in his heart.

Looking at her dirty face, her eyes became a little warmer: "Thank you."

"Why are you thanking me? I didn't give it to you." Qing Wu looked strange.

Hong Rui brought the water and Qing Wu went over to wash her hands and face. Her actions were not delicate at all.

When she bent over, she exposed her jade-white neck, which was alluring without even realizing it. The clean water washed away the mud, and the water droplets rolled down from her already beautiful eyebrows, soaking the skirt of her clothes.

Xiao Chenyan felt that this scene was a bit irritating. Seeing that the people around him were stunned, he couldn't help but frown and felt displeased.

The voice also deepened: "The dress is also dirty, Hong Rui, wait for the princess to change into clean clothes."

The surrounding black-armored guards fell silent and looked away nervously, not daring to look around again.

Hongrui took the order and couldn't help but curl her lips.

Qing Wu didn't realize that her clothes were indeed dirty.

Xiao Chenyan watched her enter the house, and then looked away after a moment. He looked at the flowerpot in his hand and was lost in thought. He raised his eyes to meet a salivating pig's face.

The warmth in his eyes disappeared instantly, and Xiao Chenyan said expressionlessly: "Situ Jing, shut your mouth."

Situ Jing sucked Harazi back and swallowed: "Your Majesty, this is a big treasure. This subordinate is proficient in pharmacology and is the best at serving herbal medicine. Why don't you leave it to me..."

"Put it in my study."

In one sentence, Situ Jing's dream was shattered.

Situ Jing looked disappointed and was about to take it, but Xiao Chenyan took back his hand.

Situ Zhutou was confused.

Xiao Chenyan: "Step back, I will take it back myself."

Situ Jing: "..." Prince, you are so capricious.

When Qing Wu changed her clothes and came out, the dinner had already been arranged in the kitchen, using fresh mountain products sent by the little mountain spirit.

Xiao Chenyan's eyes fell on her, but he frowned slightly, but didn't say anything, just said quietly:

"Let's eat first."

Wild yam stewed with old hens and served with wild mushrooms is eaten three times. It’s not a lot of food, so it’s just right for two people.

Xiao Chenyan was very casual about his diet. He marched and fought all year round. When he was short of food and grass, he even ate grass roots.

The palace is also very frugal, and the chef is also the leader. The craftsmanship... is mainly about eating.

This dinner is the most delicious thing Qing Wu has eaten these days, and it all depends on the freshness of the ingredients.

"It's a meal..." She sighed with emotion as she drank the soup. Seeing that Xiao Chenyan still tasted the same in everything he ate, she couldn't help but pouted: "I've been thinking about it for a long time, can you change the cook in your house? ?”

"As long as the food satisfies your stomach," Xiao Chenyan said in a normal tone, "A military chef can use it with more confidence."

Qing Wu hates her face. She finally returned to the human world and treated her own mouth harshly. What kind of thing is this!

She could remember that Xiao Chenyan had a more naughty mouth than she did back then. He was a man who never tired of fine food but never tired of details.

Qing Wu ate slowly, but Xiao Chenyan had used up all the inkstones. She disliked eating with him and the food seemed tasteless, so she said:

"You can leave after dinner. I want to eat for a while. I will meet you in your study later to talk about something."

Xiao Chenyan was silent for a moment, "Princess, please use it slowly."

After saying that, he stood up and left, not forgetting to take away the pot of ginseng.

After leaving the Iris Courtyard, he suddenly asked: "After she got married, the house didn't buy her new clothes?"

Situ Jing was stunned for a moment and smiled bitterly: "This... my subordinates don't know, generally speaking there will be no shortage..."

He paused, remembering the scene when his princess got married. She came in in a coffin. How could the Shangshu Mansion prepare that for her?

It's the 'dowry', which the ghost aunt got by her own skills after she got married.

Xiao Chenyan had just noticed that Qingwu's dress did not fit her well. In the past, he had never paid attention to these details.

"Let Hong Rui go to Jinlu Pavilion later."

"in addition……"

Xiao Chenyan paused: "From now on, the meals in Iris Courtyard will be rearranged."

Situ Jing was surprised and wanted to laugh, but then he pulled his pig-headed face and could only grin and say "yes".

In the Iris Courtyard, Qingwu was still fighting with the pot of chicken soup. It was so bright that if she hadn't been unable to eat it, she could have done ten more pots of it.

Hong Rui was waiting beside him, but he hesitated to speak.

"Why are you still standing?" Qing Wu waved her hand: "Xiao Chenyan is gone, and there is no one around to quench your appetite. You sit down and eat together."

Hongrui didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She abided by the rules and did not sit down. She was thoughtful and saw the reason why Qingwu chased Xiao Chenyan away, and she wanted to help the prince say:

"Princess, it's not that the prince is inconsiderate. It's just that the days in the north are bitterly cold. Over the years, the court has been withholding military expenses."

"The prince has always shared the joys and sorrows with the soldiers, so he doesn't want to waste more on food."

Qing Wu was not annoyed when she heard this, and she was not really angry with Xiao Chenyan. She just didn't like that he kept a straight face when eating, which affected people's mood while eating.

"He is in the palace now, not in the north. He doesn't know how to enjoy the delicious food~"

Hongrui smiled bitterly, hesitated, and explained in a low voice:

"The princess misunderstood the prince, the prince..."

"Someone poisoned him a few years ago, and the prince narrowly escaped death. After that, he had a problem with his taste. Even the nectar from the twigs was unbearably bitter in the mouth."

When others eat, they can taste the five flavors, sour, sweet, bitter, spicy and salty, which is the middle taste and enjoyment.

But for Xiao Chenyan, what comes into his mouth is only bitterness.

In fact, eating can be considered a kind of torture.

Qing Wu suddenly felt that the chicken soup in the bowl was no longer fragrant.

The judge's pen said faintly: "Oh, who started to have a conscience? It's the bad ghost Ah Wu~"
