Su Xinyu's words stunned Shangguan Lin for a moment. "But then he took a deep breath." You're right. It's because I think too much. There was no need to use such a roundabout way to deal with them. Xinyu, thank you for reminding me. Otherwise, this time, I must be wrong. "
No matter what Wen Ling thought, as long as he did not use his own body as a bargaining chip, it would be fine. No need for thanks. But you have to understand. Those who are willing to be hurt for you, will feel heartache for you. Those who hurt you would not care about your body. So why make people who hurt you feel bad about it? "
Although the words were a little roundabout, Shangguan Lin still felt a kind of warmth that he had never felt before. Xinyu, you are the first person who would say these words to me. "
These words made Su Xinyu's heart tighten, and her tone softened instantly. Thinking about it, Wen Ling was still just a teenager. Even if this world could be considered to have reached the prime of its life, he was still a teenager in the end. Seeing how the parents of other families doted on their children while he herself could only allow his father to ignore his and even allow his stepmother to harm his, this kind of childhood should be even more pitiful than his own. At least you know now that someone cares about you. " After saying so, her face turned red out of instinct. She didn't think that he would say such a thing.
Shangguan Lin was overjoyed, "Yes. No matter how hard it is, I won't let anyone who cares about me feel sad. Xinyu, believe me. "
Su Xinyu also felt that the sweetness in her heart was really good. After all, even if she hadn't truly been in love in her previous life, she did have the feeling of liking others. Towards Wen Ling, she really couldn't deny her good impression. However, her body was still too young, she was far from the age to think about such things. Her hand sped up, treating the wound, and bandaging it again. As for whether she believed him or not, she did not answer, but she did not refuse him either.
Their embarrassment was quickly dispelled. Shangguan Lin told him about the weapon manual. Even though Su Xinyu was a girl, her eyes shone with excitement.
So it turned out that Shangguan Lin did not use the weapon from that book. They had instead secretly found people to build a large number of extremely lethal crossbows. It took them eight months to form an elite unit of five thousand men. Because this troop used crossbows and attacked very quickly, they were named the "Thunder Army". Obtaining it was like getting hit by a thunderbolt. This team had truly caught everyone off guard. This fatal blow to the leader of the rebel army was completed by the Thunder Army.
Shangguan Lin also told Su Xinyu that Tian Liyong was now a leading officer in the Thunder Army. This time, they had brought half of the Thunder Army and half of the vanguard army to wipe out the survivors. As long as he was careful, this mission would not be too dangerous. As long as he obtained the head of the opposing guard, Tian Liyong would be able to perform a genuine meritorious service.
So soon?" Even though he didn't know much about the system of government positions in ancient times. But to Su Xinyu, this speed was simply too fast. It had only been a little more than a year, but a soldier with a large head could actually be promoted to general. Regardless of it being of the highest quality, this was much faster than the imperial examinations.
Shangguan Lin laughed: "You need to know. This was what the soldiers risked their lives for. But it was different from those literati who would dance while making ink. Every step has blood and sweat. "
Su Xinyu sighed: "That's right. Ling Ge, what about you? I don't know what your previous position was. Are there any promotions? "
At this moment, Shangguan Lin wanted to tell Su Xinyu the truth. "However, after considering that the situation was uncertain, he chose to temporarily hide it." I didn't have an official position before. He could only be considered a strategist. However, after this war is over, I should be able to get a promotion. " Either Fourth Brother will ascend to the throne, and I will be an incomparably noble prince. Either Third Brother ascends the throne, or his own head falls to the ground.
Su Xinyu frowned: "It's all because of your mother right? Sigh. Really. Was it wrong for a bastard to be capable? Who else can his son blame for not reusing him? "
"Seeing Su Xinyu fight against his own injustice, Shangguan Lin laughed. Don't worry. "It should be mine. No one can take it away from me."
The two of them began to chat about the light. Originally, Shangguan Lin had let Xiao Tong go to the Yun Lai Workshop to get a table full of wine. However, Su Xinyu said that she would cook a few small dishes. Since there were only a few people in the courtyard, there was no need to go and ask for a banquet. Moreover, she even made Xiao Tong buy ingredients previously.
Shangguan Lin was unwilling to part with his work, and at the same time, wanted to eat her cooking. In the end, he still couldn't win against Su Xinyu, so he sat there obediently and waited for the meal to start.
According to the list that Su Xinyu had given him, in addition to the ingredients that Xiao Tong had selected himself, The afternoon food filled the kitchenette almost to the brim. Looking at this scene, Su Xinyu couldn't help but sigh at how the rich lived too extravagantly. However, it was convenient for her to change the ingredients.
The Sichuan Baizhi Dove Soup is suitable for the two injured patients to replenish Qi and blood. Su Xinyu then put Western Ginseng inside it, the effect of replenishing Qi was even more obvious. After all, the two of them had injured some of their vitality. This sort of nourishment was necessary.
The wolfberry porridge was used to replenish the blood of two people. Actually, Su Xinyu had wanted to put a few more red dates on the table. But she considered the fact that Wen Ling didn't like things that were too sweet. If there was something sweet in the porridge, it would be hard for these men to accept. So she made red dates into tea, medlar, though sweet, but not to that extent.
Even though the stir-fried lotus root slices looked light and weak, it was a good thing for strengthening the spleen and opening the stomach. Furthermore, her lotus root had grown from a Spirit Spring in the space, so the nourishing effect of her lotus root wasn't any worse than that of Ginseng Lingzhi. The most important thing was that his Lotus Root Starch had a peaceful taste. It was not something that those hot dishes could compare to.
Stewed pork chops with chestnuts is the main dish of the day. Fresh chestnuts are peeled and stewed with pork chops until soft. The pork chops absorbed the sweet fragrance of the chestnut, and the chestnut absorbed the rich smell of the pork chops.
Stir-fried meat slices with lily celery was also a light choice. It could be said that out of all the dishes that Su Xinyu had cooked today, only the chestnut braised pork chops could be considered to be greasy. It's like a pigeon soup. It's the kind of soup that leaves out all the oil, just for them to drink. Although the men liked to eat meat, it could be seen from how Wen Ling and the others liked to eat barbecue before. But who let them get hurt now? One had to know that the diet of the wounded had to be light and easy to digest.
However, the taste of the dish was not light either. The lily had no smell, but the fragrance of celery was clear. Su Xinyu used the fish-like fragrance to cook, weakening the spicy taste to slightly emphasize the sour taste, making it seem as if she had nothing to eat.
There was also a fragrant tofu that was considered to be the most complicated out of the four dishes. After cutting the tofu into pieces, she wrapped it with starch and fried it into a golden color. Afterwards, she put the code plate on it, and then used the ginseng juice and seasonings to make the rain sauce and evenly sprinkle it on the fried tofu slices. When she ate, there was also a faint fragrance in the salty taste, but it was actually not very beneficial.
Shangguan Lin, as the Fifth Prince, grew up in the palace. Naturally, he had seen it before. However, the dishes on the table left him in awe. Needless to say, Su Xinyu's culinary skills, just by saying the effort of the kitchen, was something that the imperial chefs could not compare with. Especially the fragrant tofu, he remembered that Royal Father was not feeling well and suddenly wanted to eat tofu. The one hundred over people from the Royal Kitchen had to work hard for two whole months in order to make all sorts of tofu that could satisfy the Royal Father. These princes had all tasted the tofu before as well. That was also the first time Shangguan Lin got to know that the most common ingredient tofu could be made into a myriad of shapes and tastes. However, just as he was eating the fragrant tofu, he realized that the hundreds of tofu dishes he had tasted previously were not as enticing as the one in front of him.
Naturally, Shangguan Lin knew that it was because he liked him that he felt that Su Xinyu was good everywhere. However, it was precisely because he liked her that he wanted to protect his, so he had no choice but to do so.
Su Xinyu was the same. After all, she was not a child. If she had a liking, how could she deceive herself? However, Wen Ling's identity had never been proven to be true, and she knew that the disparity between them was too great. It was fine to be close friends, but there was no hope of marriage. Therefore, she treasured this feeling, but would not reveal it. As for the future, she felt that it was too far away from her. Even if it was Wen Ling, as long as she could not be a couple with him throughout his life, she would not give up her freedom.
Go home from Wen Ling's place. Xiao Tong sent Su Xinyu home, then informed him before returning.
Seeing that her daughter had returned, Su Wenlan hurriedly asked, "How is Wen Ling? Are your injuries serious? Where is Courage now? "Is it safe?"
Su Xinyu told Mother about Wen Ling's injuries and Tian Liyong's situation. After saying that, she comforted her, "Mother, you don't have to worry. Big Brother Yong was not that reckless person. Right now, they still had powerful weapons to assist them. They believed that it wouldn't be long before Victorious Return emerged victorious. Ling Ge said that after Big Brother Yong performs meritorious services this time, he can become a general. "
Su Wenlan sighed, "As an adult, doesn't everyone hope for their child to bring glory to their ancestors? I just hope that all of you will be safe, and that will be better than anything else. Xinyu's life is too pitiful, since he calls me Aunt, he is also the savior of our lives. Help him out a little more. As long as I don't expose myself. "
Su Xinyu nodded: "Mn. I know my limits. Don't worry. In fact, his injuries were not serious. " As for the disputes in the imperial court in the future, they would be so far away from him, let alone his mother. Thus, there were some things that she did not intend to say out loud. If there was one less person to worry about, then there would be one less person who would be as conflicted as he was.
Su Wenlan did not think too much about it. Go rest, then. You'll see it in the morning. "But in the future, you can go during the day. You must not come back so late."
