Chapter 98：

At the moment when the sixth princess doubted her life, Ming Tan and the others were instructing the guards to dig a hole, and carried in the unlucky rabbit that she had nailed to the ground. A small wooden monument.

The sixth princess reined in the reins, and was so dazed that she forgot to say "this is my prey".

After a long while, the cheers of men catching their prey came from a distance, and the sixth princess came back to her senses—oh, this is really hunting, she was not mistaken.

She looked at the people in front of her, and fixed her eyes on Ming Tan, and couldn't help but said: "You women who are showing off are too pretentious, hunting is serious, who will show such pretentiousness!"

Several people answered silently in their hearts: Of course they did it for you to see.

Ming Tan tidied up his clothes, wiped his hands with a clean handkerchief, slowly met the eyes of the sixth princess, and said reservedly: "God has the virtue of being good at life. Although it is only a hare, it is still a fresh life. The sixth princess It is a prey, but we can also treat it as a life. I don’t care about the sixth princess hunting and showing off her heroic figure. Why should the sixth princess care about me burying my bones and erecting monuments. I have heard that Nanlu is also good at learning my court etiquette. There is an old saying, 'Don't do to others what you don't want done to you', I wonder if the sixth princess has ever learned that?"

Princess Six: "..."

What is she spinning around? Although it sounds reasonable, it always feels like something is wrong... But the sound is still very nice.

No, the sixth princess closed her eyes, woke herself up, and said again: "You, what nonsense are you talking about, you look like you can't even lift your bow, you still have the nerve to teach me, I don't know that King Dingbei How could His Highness marry such an embroidered pillow like yours!"

Hearing this, Ming Tan bent his lips, motioned for someone to help him get on the pony again, and pretended to straighten his sleeves pretentiously: "It's a coincidence, my husband likes such beautiful embroidered pillows like me, As the saying goes, 'beautiful looks can be eaten', just looking at me, my husband can eat several more bowls of rice."

"On the contrary, it's a woman as heroic as the sixth princess—" She looked at the sixth princess in front of her from top to bottom for a while, and said regretfully, "Before and after I got married, I sent away several times. My husband is too popular. What a sweet annoyance, too.”? ? ?

The sixth princess blushed.

This embroidered pillow was reserved just now, why is it so unashamed to speak now! Didn't it mean that Daxian women are extremely dignified and self-respecting?

But looking at the little sisters behind her, they all nodded in agreement, and the sixth princess fell into self-doubt again.

After a long while, she held the rein without confidence, and turned to the side: "Forget it, forget it, you have too many people, I can't quarrel with you!"

She rode a horse and rushed to the camp where the prey was cleared. Looking at the small figure, she seemed to be running away.

Ming Tan sighed lightly, and said without interest: "The sixth princess has a bit of a temper, but she's not as clumsy as she imagined."

Not far away, Jiang Xulu stopped the horse and the others were silent, thinking in unison: Obviously you are the ones who are more messy.

Autumn hunting usually lasts for three days, and the hunting on this first day is not over until sunset. In the camp outside the forest, around the imperial tents of Emperor Chengkang and Empress Zhang, many tents of different specifications have been built around. tent.

In fact, there is a palace less than ten miles away from the imperial forest in the suburbs of Beijing. However, the residence of the palace is a bit less wild in autumn, and the Qin Tianjian has observed the astrology. Not far away, there are tens of thousands of elite soldiers guarding the Gyeonggi camp not far away, so there is a designated area for the camp.

On the first day of this autumn, Wu Zhuangyuan got the most prey, followed by Lu Ting, the commander of the deputy capital in front of the palace, and Zhang Huaiyu, the son of Duke Ping.

As for Jiang Xu not even getting into the top three, it was purely because he was too lazy to hunt more. This time he went into the dense forest, he just wanted to hunt two firefoxes and make a cloak for Ming Tan. She wore that firefox cloak on New Year's Eve, which was very bright and charming. , but when the servants baked it closer to the charcoal fire, a small area was scorched, and she refused to wear it again.

The firefox was hard to find, and he had to turn around all day, and he only got one, and accidentally hurt its fur, so he gave it to Zhang Huaiyu, and let him use it to make a scarf for others.

At nightfall, the autumn stars twinkle in the night, clusters of bonfires are lit in the camp, and all kinds of prey are placed on the fire. Under the light of the fire, the oil is flowing and bubbling, and the smell of meat and condiments is scattered. Fragrant and tangy.

Although it is a wild hunt, there are special people guarding and feeding this imperial forest, so if it is sent to the mouth of the imperial relatives, it is clean and safe.

Ming Tan sat obediently beside Jiang Xu, and let him roast the chicken for himself. This time, he added condiments, the appearance of the roast chicken was even more attractive, and the fragrance was even stronger. Ming Tan swallowed his saliva several times calmly, From time to time, she tugged at the hem of his clothes and whispered, "Husband, are you alright?"

"Wait a little longer." Jiang Xu turned the iron skewer with a calm expression, "Bring the green onion."

Mingtan devoutly offers porcelain bowls with green onions on top.

After flipping and roasting for a while, and sprinkled with chopped green onion, Jiang Xu finally took the roast chicken off the skewer and put it on a plate, and handed it to her: "It's done."

Ming Tan told Jiang Xu early on that he wanted to eat the roast chicken he made today, so he hasn't eaten since he left the house. He just ate two pieces of snacks and a small plate of grapes to satisfy his hunger. He is already hungry Hungry.

She was sitting by the side, and was about to reach for it in a hurry, but as soon as she touched it, her hand was scalded by the roast chicken, and she immediately pulled it back, and could not help but hiss softly.

"What are you in a hurry for?"

Jiang Xu held her hand and looked at it. Fortunately, nothing happened to her.

"Soak in cold water."

Ming Tan said "Oh", and obediently put a pair of jade hands into the basin filled with cold water.

After a while, Jiang Xu took a piece of cotton cloth to wipe her hands clean, and then asked, "Does it still hurt?"

Ming Tan shook his head.

The roasted chicken had cooled down a bit, so Jiang Xu tore off a chicken leg and gave it to her: "Eat slowly, don't choke."

Ming Tan took a bite gracefully, and was so satisfied that he wanted to slip into his husband's arms, it was so delicious! The skin is slightly crispy, the meat is tender and juicy, this familiar taste is so blissful!

Ming Tan sat at the side and boasted without hesitation——

"Husband, you are too good! It's so delicious to bake!"

"My husband's failure to be a cook is really a loss to the culinary world!"

"But my husband can do everything so easily, it's a pity to be a cook!"

…

Hearing her boast, Jiang Xu remained silent.

However, where Ming Tan couldn't see, there was an almost imperceptible smile across his face.

The sixth princess saw this scene not far away, and felt that the secret roast leg of lamb at hand was no longer fragrant.

Is that still His Royal Highness King Dingbei, the Iron Faced God of War? What happened to him all these years? How is the family background of that embroidered pillow so prominent? He actually condescended to give that embroidered pillow a roast chicken! That is the hand used to hold the Wanjun bow and lift the Wanjun sword to guide the country to fight the enemy! What a chicken! !

Although she saw His Royal Highness Dingbei King again, she was not as crazy as before, it can be seen that he is still so upset about the embroidered pillow... The roast chicken looks delicious, and the embroidered pillow is delicious So fragrant, it must be delicious. I don’t know if she would like to exchange her secret roasted leg of lamb and embroidered pillow with her. She should be willing. She would exchange such a big leg of lamb for a chicken leg, no matter how you look at it. She's at a loss, it's really not good, it's good to change to chicken wings...

"Royal sister! Sit down!" The fifth prince saw that his little royal sister stood up suddenly, as if she was about to walk in the direction of the Daxian King Dingbei, so he hurriedly reached out his hand and grabbed it nervously.

The sixth princess broke away from his hand: "Brother, what are you doing, I'm just going to exchange for a roast chicken!"

"The emperor will bake it for you."

The sixth princess looked disgusted: "Then I might as well do it myself."

As she spoke, she lifted the roast leg of lamb and walked to King Dingbei's camp without looking back.

"His Royal Highness Dingbei, can I exchange a leg of lamb for you a roast chicken?" She stood in front of Jiang Xu who was still turning the skewer, and asked a little nervously.

Jiang Xu raised his eyes, glanced at her, lowered his eyes again, and continued to roast the chicken: "This king is roasting the chicken for the princess, and whether to exchange it or not depends entirely on the princess."

Although I expected such an answer, it sounded even more frustrating.

The sixth princess turned to Ming Tan again unwillingly: "Princess, can I change with you? Yours looks delicious."

After finishing speaking, she hastily added: "Of course, mine is not bad either. I baked it myself. It's the secret roasted leg of lamb that Nanlu can make. It's different from yours. It's delicious. .”

"Since it's delicious, why did Princess Six want to trade it with me?" Ming Tan asked pretending not to understand.

"I, I eat it often in Nanlu, and I'm tired of it." The sixth princess compromised, "Then I will exchange legs for legs, and I will exchange lamb legs for your chicken legs, how about it? My lamb leg is so big, you always No loss."

She only wanted to change the chicken leg, but didn't she raise the request first, and lower it so that the other party would be more acceptable.

However, Ming Tan still didn't respond, as if he was seriously thinking about whether the deal was worthwhile.

The Sixth Princess lost her little confidence, her steamed bun face puffed up, and her voice sank a bit: "Chicken wings are also fine."

Ming Tan looked at her slumped white and tender bun face, and inexplicably felt that the touch felt good when poked.

When she was about to respond, someone from the imperial tent sent a message saying that His Royal Highness Dingbei Wang is invited. Jiang Xu got up, glanced at the harmless sixth princess, explained to Ming Tan, and went to the imperial account with the servant.

After Jiang Xu left, the six princesses relaxed a lot, and their bargaining skills became more articulate.

Ming Tan seemed to be moved by her unyielding spirit, pondered for a moment, nodded and said: "Okay, I'll trade it with you, and I won't take advantage of you, I'll give you a roast chicken."

The sixth princess stared straight: "Really?"

Ming Tan moved to the side: "If the sixth princess doesn't dislike it, she can sit here and eat."

Jiang Xu also prepared a dipping sauce for the grilled chicken, which tastes even more delicious when used with the dipping sauce.

The sixth princess thought to herself that the embroidered pillow was actually quite kind, and sat down on it unceremoniously.

The sixth princess was very self-aware. After sitting down, she took a silver needle from the side and kept piercing the leg of lamb. After piercing it up, down, left, and right, she handed out the leg of lamb, and said frankly, "Don't worry." , non-toxic, if you are worried, I can also have a taste first."

Ming Tan is not worried about her being poisoned, Nanlu missions are here, as long as she is not crazy, she can't do such stupid things.

And as she watched, she wasn't so crazy about her husband. Just now when he was still there, she just stared at the roast chicken, and didn't take a second look to the side. With a sigh of relief, the whole person became more at ease.
