Shu Shu's little rabbit was loved by Wu Fujin and Qi Fujin as soon as he appeared.
Qi Fujin hugged one of them and stroked it gently: "Oh my God, this hair is so soft..."
Wu Fujin also showed a rare childish look and carefully touched the other's long ear.
"Let me take care of you for two days, and then our father will accompany me..."
Qi Fujin acted like a fool and prayed pitifully to Shu Shu.
She had already used a stand-in, what else could Shu Shu say?
She looked at the shivering "Seven Brother Rabbit" in her arms, and said: "I asked someone to order some cabbage from the dining room. You can take it with you later and feed it directly... No need to wash it, just wash it and soak it in raw food." The water is not good..."
Qi Fujin nodded quickly and wrote it down carefully.
There was a banquet in the evening, and the couple broke up after talking and joking for a while.
Unlike every banquet, the previous banquets were private banquets.
The prince who leads the tribe's banner "enters the banquet", or the princess and her husband-in-law "enter the banquet".
Today's banquet is a banquet given by the emperor to the princes and princes of the coming dynasties. It can also be regarded as a kind of state banquet of the imperial court.
The banquet was jointly hosted by the Fine Dining Department of the Ministry of Etiquette, Guanglu Temple, the Imperial Kitchen and Imperial Tea House of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the Administrative Affairs Office in the Paddock.
Shu Shu changed into the auspicious clothes of Prince Fujin, wore an auspicious crown, and had a string of beeswax beads on her chest.
Even the two attendants, Walnut and Xiaosong, were dressed in green palace maid costumes and had their hair braided. They looked quieter and more careful than usual.
When they arrived at the banquet place, Shu Shu looked at the tables of dumplings.
Full table?
The banquet was for two people, and Shu Shu happened to be in line behind Qi Fujin, and the two sisters-in-law were seated at the same table.
The table was almost full.
The bottom layer is dumplings.
Four plates of square puff pastry.
Four plates of four-color Yinzi cakes.
Six plates of large dumplings.
Two bowls of small dumplings.
Three plates of red and white seeds.
On the next level are twelve plates of dried fruits and four plates of fresh fruits.
It was different from the chatting and laughing at the previous small banquet.
There are officials from the Ministry of Etiquette nearby.
During the entire banquet, everyone was like singing a puppet show, following the arrangements of the officials of the Ministry of Etiquette.
There was only one main course at the banquet, which was steamed leg of lamb.
One leg of lamb per table.
Although there is a silver knife next to it, how can you eat it in full view of everyone?
Shu Shu looked around and found that no one was touching the lamb legs at all, and there were very few people eating the meat.
After all, most pastries are made from puff pastry, and it would be indecent to lose the crumbs of the pastry.
At most, everyone only eats two pieces of dried fruit, or picks up fresh fruits such as grapes and tangerines.
In this dull and boring atmosphere, the banquet dragged on for an hour.
It starts at the beginning of Xu and ends at the beginning of Hai.
The pastries and dried and fresh fruits on each table can be taken back.
Shu Shu ordered the walnuts to collect them with Qi Fujin's girl and bring them back.
It wasn't until he returned to the courtyard that Xiao Song said, "No wonder I insist on asking Fujin to have a bowl of noodles and tea before I go there... There's nothing edible here..."
"First Evolution"
Shu Shu pointed at the two full food boxes and said, "You guys can go and eat..."
Desserts that are both oily and sugary are hard to get used to eating as a meal, but they are also difficult to eat on weekdays.
It is the craftsmanship of the dim sum chef of the Imperial Kitchen.
There are also these dried fruits and fruits. Not to mention that they are palace servants, even Shu Shu does not provide these.
Xiaosong responded cheerfully, but did not carry it away. Instead, he took out a plate of noodles, a plate of beef tongue cake, a plate of walnut kernels, and a plate of grapes: "These are Fujin's favorite foods, keep them with milk tea." …”
Shu Shu drank a lot of water and was not hungry yet, but thinking about Brother Jiu, she nodded and said: "Then keep it..."
Xiaoyu came in, served Shu Shu, changed out of her auspicious clothes, and undressed her hair.
Sun Jin had already brought the hot water with the young eunuch, and the bathtub was ready.
Before Shu Shu could take a bath, Qi Fujin sent someone.
It was Haitang, the dowry maid of Qi Fu Jin, with a little palace maid and a rabbit cage in her hand.
"Jiu Fujin, our Fujin sent slaves to bring the rabbit back..."
Haitang replied respectfully.
Shu Shu couldn't help but be curious, glanced at the rabbit, and was a little worried: "Aren't you going to keep it for a few days this afternoon? Why did you change your mind again? Was it bitten by a rabbit?"
She thought about this possibility.
Because when the sisters-in-law came back together just now, they heard Qi Fujin say that he wanted to feed the rabbits with tangerines, and within a quarter of an hour, he changed his mind.
Haitang said quickly: "It's not because of this...it's because our elder brother is back, and our Fujin said we can't take care of raising rabbits for the time being..."
Shu Shu was silent.
Scumbag!
The poor substitute rabbit was abandoned in front of the real owner.
Haitang left and took a nice and comfortable bath.
It also smells good on my body.
Not for what reason...
This is not the time of late autumn, when the autumn wind makes people's skin dry.
It was almost at Haizheng that Brother Jiu came back.
He Yuzhu and the tenth elder brother were supporting the ninth elder brother, one on the left and the other on the right.
Brother Thirteen followed with concern.
Brother Ninth's face was flushed, his eyes were closed, and he smelled of alcohol.
When Shu Shu saw this, she was startled. She looked at He Yuzhu and frowned: "How much did you drink?"
Brother Ninth is still taking medicine to regulate his spleen and stomach and avoids alcohol.
Every time we had a banquet before, Brother Jiu would just go through the motions. If he really couldn't push it away, he would just take a sip or two.
It was the first time that I was so drunk like today.
Brother Ten felt guilty: "Sister-in-law, I didn't stop you..."
The smell on his body was stronger than Brother Jiu's, and his eyes were bloodshot and he was holding on.
Opening his mouth, he smelled of alcohol.
He didn't drink too much, but his drinking capacity seemed to be stronger than Brother Jiu's.
The Thirteenth Brother was by the side, and he was afraid that Shu Shu would misunderstand the Tenth Brother, so he explained: "Sister-in-law, the Tenth Brother has been blocking me, and he also drank a lot on behalf of the Ninth Brother... Today it is those Taiwanese ghosts from Prince Darhan's Mansion. , inciting the princes of our banner to toast Brother Ninth... The princes of the neighboring banners didn't know the reason, and were worried about missing the etiquette, so they followed suit, and even the envoys from Outer Mongolia were not left behind... The eldest brother is not here, the fifth brother , Seventh Brother came over to help drink..." At this point, he said with depression: "Third Brother took away the Fifth Brother Lake, and also held Seventh Brother back..."
Shu Shu frowned and listened.
It's no surprise that Third Brother's behavior is harmful to others and not beneficial to himself.
Shu Shu still clearly remembers what he said before about Jiu Age being his "love type".
It's only been a few days and it happened again.
Not enough bullying?
Shu Shu made a mental note of this.
She looked at Brother Thirteen carefully and said, "You didn't follow me and drank more, did you?"
When children drink, they may become stupid.
Brother Thirteen shook his head: "Brother Ninth didn't let me drink..."
Shu Shu nodded: "Well, listen to your Ninth Brother, drink it when you are mature..."
The night is already deep.
Shu Shu ordered Xiaotang to get honey and pear paste and handed them to Brother Ten's eunuch: "Go back and mix some water for Lord Ten to drink. When you wake up, drink before going to bed to save yourself a headache tomorrow..."
When the 10th and 13th elders left, the 9th elder who had been placed on the kang before was probably restrained and uncomfortable by his clothes. He stared in confusion and was pulling at his clothes.
Shu Shu helped him take off his coat, and asked He Yuzhu and Sun Jin to help him and wipe him briefly before repositioning him to lie down.
Brother Jiu fell asleep obediently.
Shu Shu sat in front of the dressing mirror and applied blush and lip oil.
This third elder brother has surpassed the eighth elder brother and become Shu Shu's most hated brother-in-law.
It’s been a while, but it’s not over yet, right? !
If I don't think of ways to repay one or two, there will be a third or fourth time!
Feeling full of breath, Shu Shu lay down next to Brother Jiu and fell asleep too.
In the middle of Mi Mi Lake, an arm came over.
It was Brother Jiu who turned over, still mumbling in a low voice.
Shu Shu couldn't hear it clearly, so she leaned over and heard Brother Jiu saying with Chongpan: "Wait, I will catch a white fox to make a collar for you tomorrow..."
Shu Shu couldn't help but laugh, put Brother Jiu's arm back into the quilt, and fell asleep again.
The next morning, when Shu Shu opened her eyes, she saw a person standing in front of her.
It's Brother Ninth.
Wearing a golden cotton armor, a helmet on his head, and a knife on his waist.
Seeing that Shu Shu had woken up, Brother Jiu proudly pointed at his body and said, "Look, I am not majestic!"
Shu Shu turned over and got off the kang, and circled around Brother Jiu twice: "I didn't think anything about it when I prepared the armor yesterday. It looks really good on me..."
The key is no more wearing a melon or top hat.
He looks like a handsome young general.
Today is the day of the first siege.
From the emperor down, all the princes, civil and military ministers, and soldiers of the Eight Banners who participated in the siege were all required to wear battle uniforms, and even the horses wore vests.
Mulan's siege is more like the Eight Banners training, or the Eight Banners military parade.
In such an occasion, it is not suitable to bring a personal attendant.
Whether it is the tenth prince or the thirteenth prince, there are always a few haha beads around him.
There is only one person on Brother Jiu's side.
Shu Shu sent him out, feeling very worried and warned: "Master, be careful. If you are tired, just rest nearby..."
Brother Jiu saw her worry and comforted her: "Don't worry, we followed Khan Ama and didn't go anywhere else... unlike the boss and the third child who went to the two paddocks on the side..."
After hearing this, Shu Shu felt relieved.
Six hundred tiger spears were deployed to guard the camp, and the retinue surrounded them.
What else could be unsafe?
The entire camp fell silent.
In front of the camp, several sheds were set up.
The shed in the middle is vacant, with bright yellow seats reserved for Kangxi.
In the shed on the right, the Queen Mother, her concubines, Prince Fujin, the princess, and Mongolian Fujin and their ladies were drinking tea and eating cakes, waiting for the results of the first group of sieges.
The weather is fine today and visibility is high.
This place occupies a convenient location. Looking into the distance, one can easily see the general progress of the siege.
In front of the Queen Mother, there is also a clairvoyant eye.
The Queen Mother looked at Shu Shu and others, fearing that they were too young to sit still, so she just wanted to ask someone to pass Qianli Mu over.
Princess Duan Min has already spoken: "Eni, let my daughter do this... so that I can see where our prince's team is..."
The Queen Mother nodded.
The nun beside Princess Duan Min took the Qianli Mu and handed it to Princess Duan Min.
Princess Duan Min smiled disdainfully in the direction of Shu Shu, her eyes fell on Shu Shu, not hiding her disgust.
Shu Shu's expression remained unchanged, knowing that she was being angered.
Brother Jiu had previously caught Princess Duan Min’s sons asking for “orders”. The princess was holding a grudge...
