As the supreme leader of the capital's defensive garrison, Morong Gan personally left the city to welcome them. He wore a purple-gold crown on his head, and wore a purple-red long robe with dark patterns on the bottom of his robes. He had curling dragon patterns on his sides, and he wore a short-spike coat with a white jade belt around his waist. Astonishing and noble at the same time.
His reputation was known to all, and when the envoys came to welcome him personally, they were overwhelmed by the unexpected favor, and hurried to pay their respects.
Morong Gan politely chatted with him for a bit, then looked at the convoy and asked: "Where are the grapes?"
The envoy was stunned. Why did the Prince Chu ask about grapes?
However, he could not not not answer Prince Chu's question. He pointed to the boxes at the end and said, "Your Royal Highness, the grapes are over there."
Morong Gan asked: "Is there a type of horse called milk?"
"There is," the envoy said respectfully as he led the way. "This year, the milks haven't grown very well, and they haven't been delivered much. If Your Highness likes them, you might as well take them all."
He opened the box. Every year, the fresh fruits were brought in special boxes, under which was placed ice, covered with a thick mattress, and opened layer by layer to reveal the fresh fruits inside. Finger-sized, crystal clear fruits were placed in a green string inside the box, with some of them even covered in white frost.
"That's all."
"Yes, just these. Send the best to the emperors for them to have a taste."
Morong Gan looked at the rows of grapes, he spent a lot of effort to make this big box, and that was all. If they were brought to the palace, he would be left with no points, he just had to take them, and it would save him a lot of points.
The envoy saw the look on his face and said, "These grapes are the most delicious. Even if there aren't many of them, it wouldn't be easy to share them with the palace. Why don't you bring them to the prince's house and have a taste for the princess?"
Morong Gan laughed, "Wu, your suggestion is very good. There are many mistresses in the palace, so it's not good to part with them.
He cut off the grapes halfway through and made Jia Tong quickly send them back, allowing him to follow the convoy into the palace. Naturally, there were people who took care of the complicated and detailed matters. He only accompanied them in a chat, and just replied to the emperor. Everything was done.
Returning to the manor, she had just stepped through two doors when she saw Little Yellow wandering around the ground looking for bugs to eat. With Little Yellow here, Bai Qianfan would definitely be there, and he was a little happy in her heart, because when the little girl saw him, she would definitely come over to thank him happily. As for him, she just responded with his face, indicating that it was nothing.
Turning around the Lunar Gate, he saw Bai Qianfan sitting at the side of the pond, holding her cheeks in a daze.
He was stunned for a moment. What's wrong with this? Doesn't the milkweed taste good?
He quietly walked over and pretended to scare her. He didn't expect her to notice him so quickly. He immediately turned around and stood up. Just a moment ago, he didn't seem to be in high spirits, but the moment he saw her, he immediately beamed with joy, and his eyes lit up.
Seeing her so happy, Morong Gan felt as if he just drank iced plum soup on a hot day.
"The prince is back," the little girl said as she held onto his arm, using all her strength to pull at it. "Let's go, let's go. I can't wait any longer."
Morong Gan was baffled, "Where to? What can't wait? "
Bai Qianfan dragged him into the house, and then sat him down on the side of the table. Only then did Morong Gan see the milk grapes that he had told Jia Tong to bring were placed on a plate.
he asked. "Why didn't you eat?"
"I'll wait for your highness to come back before we eat together." Bai Qianfan took one and stuffed it into his mouth, looking at him with anticipation, "Is it delicious?"
It was sweet and slightly sour. To Morong Gan, grapes were usually like this, no matter how sweet they were.
"Yes, very sweet." He also fed one to her, and the little girl opened her mouth in a hurry, as if she wanted to eat his fingers together.
When the soft lips touched his fingers, Morong Gan's heart skipped a beat, and that kind of dryness once again came surging out.
Bai Qianfan squinted her eyes, with an intoxicated look on her face, her small mouth slowly pouted and shrank back again. Looking at her, Morong Gan felt her throat and tongue becoming dry, and smoke was coming out from her mouth and eyes.
He raised his voice and told Lv He to bring the tea over, and when the tea was served, he picked up the cup and drank it. He placed the scalding water into his mouth and spat it out immediately.
Lv He was so scared that he immediately knelt down, "This servant deserves to die, I've been burned."
Bai Qianfan immediately stuffed a grape into his mouth. Feeling that one was not enough, she stuffed another two into his mouth, "The grapes are cold, Your Highness, please hold them in for a while."
Her face was flushed red and it was impossible to describe his feelings. Bai Qianfan once again came over, raised his chin and looked at it carefully: "Let me see, your highness, let me see, if my tongue is hot, I have to use medicine."
He was like a puppet, he did whatever she said, he swallowed the grapes and stuck his tongue out for her to see, the little girl looked down and pouted and blew and the wind was cold and hot and he just opened his mouth and let her blow like a fool.
The Green Lotus had gone out at some point, and the room was quiet. He heard his heart thumping, thump.
When Bai Qianfan came to blow on her again, he lifted the tip of his tongue and barely touched her lips, as if she was struck by lightning. He immediately jumped up and forcefully coughed twice, and became a little angry from embarrassment: "What are you bragging about, I'm not a child."
Being scolded by him, Bai Qianfan did not mind at all. She said happily, "Your Highness can speak now."
In fact, the moment he was scalded, his mouth went numb. However, he recovered very quickly. It was her actions that caused him to lose his soul.
What did a girl who was so close to her husband want to do with her mouth? She wasn't enlightened, but he was a normal man, and she was a criminal.
"Eat on your own. I don't like to eat these." After saying that, he hurriedly left the room.
Bai Qianfan shouted from behind: "I can't eat this much by myself, I told everyone to come here and eat, just say that it's given by the prince."
Instead of listening to her rambling, he walked faster and faster, spending a lot of time on the grapes he had brought back and finally sharing them with the servants.
He stood far behind the pillar, and watched as she distributed the grapes to everyone. Hao Pingguan didn't dare take them, he was forced into the fortress by her, he didn't dare let his feed him, he hurriedly took the plate and hid himself far away. Ning Jiu was also unwilling to eat it, so she stuffed it again, causing Ning Jiu's face to turn red, and could only take it. Even the rough little girl and the sweeping servants were given a few pills. All of the servants in the Huailin Pavilion were gathered together, eating while chattering about the delicacies of grapes.
It was so lively, his Huailin Pavilion had never been so lively before. When he was cutting off the grapes, he definitely didn't expect it to be like this, but it didn't matter, as long as she was happy.
