Xia Tingyu's expression returned to normal and she smiled charmingly: "Your Majesty, would you like a cup of tea?"

Xia Fengxiang said, "Let's drink."

Xia Tingyu nodded immediately: "Okay."

Wu Qinhu and Su Wenqing had been paying attention to these two since Xia Tingyu just passed by.

Seeing that nothing happened, Wu Qinhu breathed a sigh of relief.

Su Wenqing laughed for no reason, especially when he looked at His Majesty, he recalled the time when these two loved to fight each other when they were young. Sometimes the late emperor would laugh and say, "Qingge behaves like this when facing Tingyu."

Adults’ affairs are adults’ affairs, and children’s affairs are children’s affairs.

The late emperor made a clear distinction between the two, and therefore he never cared about Xia Tingyu and loved her very much. Even though Xia Tingyu was in the capital at that time, it was actually the King of Shu who left her as a hostage to the late emperor.

Wu Qinhu took a bite of the Sanzi, then looked at the crispy, golden Sanzi in his hand, which looked like a piece of sugar cane, and couldn't help but say, "Is there something that the queen is not good at?"

Knowing that the food in his hand came from Su Changan, Wu Qinhu couldn't help but sigh and asked this question.

Su Wenqing smiled when he heard this, then lowered his voice and said, "I'm really not good at writing or drawing."

Smart people speak clearly, even though people in the market now say that the Empress's handwriting is a kind of font, it is just a shitty font.

How could Su Wenqing not see it? Especially since Su Wenqing had teased Su Changan about this matter in private, Su Changan himself felt embarrassed in front of Su Wenqing.

Wu Qinhu is not Su Wenqing, and only Su Wenqing would dare to say such words, so Wu Qinhu just smiled and shook his head.

But Su Wenqing also knew the rules. Some things can be said once, so he changed the subject and said, holding the Sanzi in his hand: "Lu Cai, what did the queen say in the palace?"

Lu Cai is now wearing a purple eunuch robe. He is the only one in the world, and even in the history of Daxia, to wear a purple sable robe at his age.

But even so, Lu Cai remained humble and kind to the palace maids and eunuchs. When he met older ones, he addressed them as "you", just because that was what the Empress Dowager said.

Now facing Old Master Su and Wu Qinhu, Lu Cai was even more respectful. He bowed and said, "Her Majesty said, 'It's as crisp as snow when you put it in your mouth.'"

After he finished speaking, seeing that Su Wenqing was still looking at him, Lu Cai continued, "The Queen said that it has the same origin as Mahua, biting scorpion tails on the second day of the second month or something like that. But the Queen originally said that they were all called Mahua, and the ones with lotus root powder were cheaper, while the ones with stuffing were more expensive. But the Queen made some of each, distinguishing between Mahua and Sanzi, saying that these were perfect for eating during the Cold Food Festival, and the recipe had already been passed down, saying that it would be given to the people. This thing is easy to make and affordable."

After saying all this, Lu Cai felt a little nervous because he felt that he was showing off by telling stories in front of these two people.

But seeing the two old men listening with great interest, Lu Cai felt a little dazed.

Because under the old locust tree in the village, there was an annoying child who was hated by the whole village. He always squatted alone in a distant place, with his ears pricked up to listen to the old people telling stories to children. He couldn't hear clearly, but it was very pleasant to listen. Every time he listened well, he would jump home. He was never afraid of walking at night, and even liked walking at night, because no one would point at him and gossip at night. He didn't feel lonely at that time, and he thought it was good to be alone, and he had a sister. But he didn't know that it was actually loneliness, not solitude.

Su Wenqing looked at Lu Cai and smiled, but seeing that Lu Cai looked a little frightened, he motioned for Lu Cai to sit down as well.

Lu Cai immediately shook his head.

Su Wenqing was helpless, but he knew what this child had done and why, so the more he looked at this child, the more he liked him.

Wu Qinhu said, "I fought with your master. At that time, I was a sixth-rank official and your master was a fourth-rank official. Although he was young and had just come to the capital, I was defeated by your master."

Lu Cai was stunned for a moment. He had never expected such a thing.

Wu Qinhu looked at Lu Cai: "But I didn't expect that the old poisoner would teach you so many things."

At this point, Wu Qinhu was puzzled: "I am more curious, is Old Poison your uncle or your grandmaster?"

Lu Cai opened his mouth and said, "Replying to the senior, it's my junior uncle."

Wu Qinhu nodded, but seeing Lu Cai's humble look, he smiled and said, "You have killed so many people in the martial arts world, and you have a reputation. At your age, among your peers, you are better than the little monk in the Lotus Temple. Only Wan'er can surpass you. Why do you talk to people like this?"

【Blood Silkworm】Lu Cai.

In fact, he has a great reputation in the world. A very great reputation!

After all, he was the one who fought against the Ku Han Sect alone and was still alive, and even escaped from the master of the end.

Even until now, many people in the world are still looking for Lu Cai's sister who can make the antidote for the bitter cold poison.

Lu Cai smiled and said, "Senior, you are too kind. I am just an attendant to the Queen now. There is no such thing as a blood silkworm."

Wu Qinhu looked at Lu Cai and smiled again, then glanced at the Queen Mother who was looking at His Majesty with a worried look on her face.

Wu Qinhu saw everything clearly during this trip to Beijing.

Around a monster, a group of little monsters who were born at the wrong time surrounded him inexplicably.

Yan Ruyu, Shentu Sheyue, Su Wan'er, and the Lu Cai in front of him, any one of them can surpass their peers.

Even that cat, Wu Qinhu could see clearly that it was simply a "poisonous talent".

As a result, all these people were around the Queen, and each of them was willing to be by her side.

It's not scary in itself, but what's scary is that there are so many little monsters following you.

Even I began to like this queen more and more. After experiencing the battle in the world meeting and what I saw with my own eyes these days, I even admired this queen a little.

Su Wenqing said bluntly: "Brother, are you thinking about your granddaughter becoming a disciple?"

Wu Qinhu also nodded directly: "If the queen is willing."

Wu Qinhu didn't say anything else, but just watched the Queen return to the main seat at the top.

Su Wenqing smiled and didn't say much, but he understood Wu Qinhu. After all, he was also worried about his grandchildren.

Thinking of this, Su Wenqing glanced at Su Liheng over there, and then looked at Lu Cai: "Lu Cai."

Lu Cai looked at Su Wenqing.

Su Wenqing said, "Is my Li Heng being laughed at in Raojiang?"

……

Ps: It’s a long chapter, and it’s to make up for yesterday’s update, so it’s updated late.

Chapter 723 Queen: Be good and go to sleep

The mountain light fades away and the moonlight hangs in the sky.

Let the world light a lamp in the sky.

The Zhen River meanders through the mountains and rivers of the vast Raojiang region. The river is rich in moisture and has dozens of branches along the way. Dozens of cities and towns in Raojiang were built along the river. A geomancer and geek of Daxia once sighed when he saw the terrain of Raojiang and said that although it was not a long-formed landform, it was surrounded by military power and there were few places in Daxia that could compare to it.

Baishui Village is the largest village in Raojiang, and most of its inhabitants are Bai and Miao people.

After nightfall, the house was brightly lit, with people singing and dancing. It was extremely lively because of the coming festival and the engagement of the old village owner's granddaughter Youli.

The Temple of King Xia of Yue, which is now the junior master of Longhu Mountain, Taoist Chen Xin, is in a bit of a mess at the moment. After a few months in Raojiang, he found the Twelve Caves, but he got halfway in and was beaten out. The one who beat him was his brother, that bastard.

But fortunately, he was not angry, because he had his sister's handwritten order. So when he kicked his brother several times to vent his anger, his brother did not even fight back and he still had to say that he hit him well.

But if you say you are not really angry, that is not true. The main reason is that the stubborn donkey insisted that he would not return to Beijing now and it would take some time, and he would go back by himself when the time comes.

What should I do if you don't go back? I made a solemn promise to that crazy girl when I came out. If I don't take you back this time, the crazy girl will turn back into her childhood devil form and kill me!

But the only thing that made me happy was seeing my brother get married and giving me a niece, who was quite cute. Everything was fine except that my niece played with a toad and a scorpion in her hands every day, which was a bit creepy.

"Hey, hey, hey, let me tell you something. That boy Mosuo is amazing. I heard that even at such a young age, our Cave Master Bai has accepted him as his last disciple. And that girl Youli will become the Cave Master's wife in the future."

"The Han people outside said that there is a mountain top ranking. That kid Mosuo is now at the ninth level. It is said that he is about to reach the end. He was even defeated by the White Cave Lord, our White Village Saint Chong. If he gets out, he will definitely be the first. The Han people can't stand it."

"Speaking of this, I remember that fat baby."

"Which one? The one who came with Youli and said he wanted to marry Youli's fat kid?"

"That's the one who's my enemy. I was so amused at that time. He doesn't know anything and is a businessman. Han people who do business are all dirty people. How dare he say he'll marry our Youli?"

"But I heard that the fat kid has a great background."

"No matter where he comes from, once he enters our Raojiang, he must follow our Raojiang rules. Otherwise, all the girls in Raojiang are beautiful, and they will be deceived by those Han scholars."

"Tsk, I admire that fat kid a lot. I was there that day too. When it came to going through mountains of swords and seas of fire, the fat kid went in without blinking an eye, and he didn't even know how to scatter. He didn't even have a poisonous insect to protect him. If he had stepped on it, half of his foot would have been broken. Fortunately, he was blocked by the tribe leader. It seems that he really likes Youli."

"You shouldn't like him, the immortal. It's impossible! But fortunately, Youli is sensible and didn't make a fuss. I just don't know what will happen next. That girl has been beautiful since she was young. Even the saint likes that girl."

Chen Xin listened to what the people in Baishui Village were saying, but it went in one ear and out the other, even though he knew they were talking about Su Liheng.

That's right.

Chen Xin looked at the two old men sitting in front of him, curled his lips, and interrupted: "Brother, we are of the same generation, right? You can't let me stand just because you are better than me. It's tiring."

There are two old men at the table. One is an old Taoist with white hair and beard and a fairy-like appearance, wearing a green robe and a lotus crown. He is Taoist Qingshuang, the contemporary great master of Mount Longhu. He can also be said to be the leader of the entire Daxia Taoist sect.

But there is another saying about this Taoist in the martial arts world, that is, he is called "Fiery Bull Nose". The main reason is that the old Taoist does things cleanly and efficiently. When it comes to a fight, he will never say a word. If he says someone must lie down today, then he must lie down today.

This person is not among the top ten in the world or the top ten substitutes, but people in the martial arts world speculate that his strength is definitely enough to challenge the top ten in the world, and he is at least among the top ten substitutes.

The one sitting opposite him was also an important figure, [Poison Immortal] Wumu Chi, one of the ten most powerful people in the world. A word from him in the entire Raojiang region was more effective than a word from the various government offices of the Great Xia court here.

Taoist Qingshuang raised his eyes and looked at Chen Xin: "You ate well and forgot to fight!? When Wu Muchi was chasing you just now, why didn't you say that you were of the same generation as him?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Xin immediately said, "Isn't it you, Senior Brother, who is here? I feel confident now."

Ebony sneered.

Qing Shuang heard the laughter and turned to look at Wu Mu Chi: "What are you laughing at? My junior brother is of the same generation as you!"

When Chen Xin heard this, he immediately sat on the stool. When he noticed the gaze of this old poisonous man, he moved his butt towards his senior brother.

The main reason why this old poisonous creature was provoked was that when Chen Xin was passing by Jinsi Village, he happened to see a golden silkworm. Thinking it was rare, he caught it with thunder magic. The golden silkworm was injured, and the old poisonous creature came out.

Using the secret steps taught by the master, he ran all the way to Baishui Village. Fortunately, his senior brother showed up in time, otherwise he would have become the feces of those poisonous creatures.

Wu Muchi said, "You have practiced something that even your master dare not touch. Don't ruin your good skin when you die. Remember to come to me and let me try to train a Gu person who can use thunder magic."

Chen Xin hasn't spoken yet.

Qing Shuang said directly: "Fuck you! When I die, my body will be buried in our Tianshi Mansion, with memorial tablets on three sides. Are you trying to take my junior brother's body again?"

As he spoke, lightning flashed in Qingshan's eyes.

Chen Xin curled his lips and said, "Brother, well, I'm not dead yet, and I'm not saying I'm 100% a failure, right? You should hope for the best from me."

Wu Mu laughed, not caring at all. He just glanced at the mess over there, then looked at Qing Shuang: "So, he came to Twelve Caves to look for Xia Wu Jiu. Are you here to look for him? Or do you know that he will definitely provoke me?"

Qingshuang glared at Chenxin: "I'm here to look for the cow."

Chen Xin is ashamed.

Wu Mu was stunned for a moment.

But the next moment, Wu Muchi's eyes suddenly turned into golden ones: "The old Heavenly Master has come down the mountain?!"
