The general went out again at night + extra episode

Could it be...was rejected by His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess?But if you are rejected, you have to report to the Holy Majesty.

He still stood in his seat and did not move until the ministers who had something to do reported all the reports.In the end, the emperor kept it in his heart and asked.

"Where is Master Shen Yi, Minister of Rites?"

Shen Yi walked out from the sequence, bowed and said: "The minister is here."

"How did you get on with the eldest princess's choice of son-in-law?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, recently, His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess prayed for Dayan at Fu'an Temple, and the minister never disturbed her, so I have not asked Her Royal Highness the Elder Princess' intentions. I beg Your Majesty to give me some more time."

"No rush, you can ask again when the eldest princess returns."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Shen Yi saluted and retreated to his seat.

"By the way, speaking of the marriage of His Royal Highness the eldest princess, I remembered that there is another hero in Dayan who is the same age as the eldest princess, and has never found a lover."

Hearing this, Xia Qingshu's heart skipped a beat, she moved her footsteps to the side, and shrank her whole body behind the bear-like Qin Lu: His Majesty the Emperor won't worry about her marriage, right? .....

"Where is General Xia Qing Shuxia?"

really!

Xia Qingshu closed his eyes suddenly, and opened them quickly.She stepped out of the sequence, bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I am here."

Ji Zhiyan smiled and said, "I want to ask General Xia if he has someone in mind? You are about the same age as the eldest princess, and you are also unmarried."

Xia Qingshu clasped her fists and said: "No. Your Majesty knows that the love between children is not what Qingshu cares about. Qingshu is aiming to eradicate foreign enemies and protect the border of Dayan. I hope your majesty will make it happen."

"Since your ambition is here, I will naturally not mess with the mandarin ducks. It's just a matter of affection, and General Xia doesn't have to be so resistant. If you have a sweetheart in the future, tell me in time, and I will marry you both."

"Wei Chen thanks Your Majesty."

Backing back to her seat, Xia Qingshu's mouth was filled with bitterness. She already had a sweetheart, but she never knew what Ji Qianyao's feelings for her were.

After the court, Qin Lu and Xia Qingshu casually asked, "What does Sister Qingshu think about the selection of the prince's son-in-law by the eldest princess?"

Xia Qingshu smiled and said, "I can't see clearly, I can't figure it out, just wait."

The Qin family has contacts with the Xia family, so the two are more familiar with other officials, Qin Lu let out his thoughts and said, "According to Shen Shangshu's words in the court today, it can be guessed."

"Come and listen to what Qin Dudu said."

"According to the ear reports of His Royal Highness, what happened in the court will be quickly heard by her ears. On the twelfth day, as soon as the morning left, she must have got the news. And in the afternoon she chose to go to Fu'an Temple to pray , I went there for several days, presumably to avoid Lord Shen, Minister of the Household Department. I think the matter of choosing a son-in-law this time will be the same as in the past, and His Highness will not agree."

"Your words...are justified!" Not only are they justified, Qin Lu's words are like a heart-saving pill, pulling back the chaotic Xia Qingshu and injecting vitality into his heart.

"Jokes and jokes don't count." Qin Lu waved his hand.

On the way back to the General's Mansion, Xia Qingshu's footsteps were much lighter.I have eaten very little in the past few days, passing by some stalls along the way, smelling the smell of food, I feel hungry.

As soon as he entered the mansion, Xia Qingshu yelled for meat, big mouthfuls of meat, roast pork ribs, roast leg of lamb!

Liu Qi was worrying about Xia Qingshu's food, she didn't have much appetite these days.When asked what she wanted to eat, she replied: Just porridge.But the porridge was ready, and she didn't eat a few mouthfuls.

The cooks and cooks in the kitchen were all worried, thinking that their skills were not good enough to suit the general's appetite, and they would pack up and leave immediately, and they were in a hurry to turn around.

Today is fine. As soon as the general came back, he said he was hungry and had a big appetite. He personally ordered a few dishes, and finally gave the cooks a chance to show their skills and justify their reputation.

Chapter 7

The kitchen of the Fuyuan General's Mansion was fully fired, and the cooks showed the most serious attitude in their lives and made several dishes that were delicious in color, fragrance and taste.

Xia Qingshu chewed the sweet and crispy pork ribs, then picked up a piece of torn lamb leg and stuffed it into his mouth, eating with a look of satisfaction.After taking two mouthfuls of wax gourd and clam soup, she began to gorge on the rice in the bowl.The housekeeper Liu Qi and his subordinate Liu Yan waited at the side, watching with delight.

"Aunt Ding, add another bowl of rice." Xia Qingshu handed the empty, clean bowl to the old servant beside him.

Aunt Ding took the bowl, waved her hand and said, "The general didn't eat much in the past few days, but today I have an appetite, so don't overeat, or my stomach may feel uncomfortable. The general's food intake today is already higher than before. There are too many, why don't you take a rest first? If you are still hungry, order the cook to make some refreshing snacks in the afternoon."

Xia Qingshu nodded, picked up the silk handkerchief and wiped the juice stains on her lips.

After a full meal, all the vigor and vigor returned, but the feeling of fullness immediately surged after this pause. Xia Qingshu said, "Come on, Liuyan, let's go to the street to eat."

Bringing three or five attendants, Xia Qingshu came to the bustling market in Nanjing City.

Today is the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, and it is getting closer and closer to the end of the new year. The stalls in the market are gradually replaced with New Year's department stores, and they are all red, which is very festive.

Xia Qingshu and Liu Yan walked to a firecracker shop, bent over and scanned.The shop owner who sells firecrackers is an old man over fifty years old, surnamed Wang, his hair is half gray, but his body is still strong.A few days ago, he joined in the fun on the main street, caught a glimpse of Xia Qingshu's face, and had a good memory, and today he recognized her at a glance, and said respectfully, "General Xia, are you here to buy things yourself?"
