"Pull it out and take a look..."

The empress also felt a little strange, but still reminded her according to her instinct.

Hu Meier nodded and gently pulled out one of the plugs.

A stream of clear water flows slowly along the bamboo pipe into the bathtub made of porcelain.

"this……"

Hu Meier was stunned for a moment, stretched out her hand and touched it gently: "Miss, it's hot water..."

"Hot water?"

"Where does this hot water come from?"

The empress asked with a bit of shock in her eyes, feeling a little strange.

"I do not know either!"

Hu Meier replied awkwardly.

With some doubts, the empress pulled out the other stopper, and another trickle slowly flowed out. The water was extremely clear, as if it were mountain spring water.

"Is this cold water? Is it for temperature adjustment?"

Hu Meier was a little shocked.

Sure enough, the room with ten taels of silver was completely different from an ordinary room.

Hu Meier tested the water temperature and put some hot water for the empress.

The empress lay comfortably in the bathtub, her eyes narrowed slightly, and after a while, she fell asleep. She had never been so relaxed before.



"Are you sure?"

Su Chen's voice was very soft.

"I'm sure, I went to Tianya Haijiao Bistro first, then wandered around the streets, and finally settled at Qinghai B&B! The carriage is made of red sandalwood, and the whole body is red sandalwood. I'm afraid there aren't many of these in the entire Yazhou! "Zhang Hu's eyes flashed: "Sir, this is a big fish!"

Su Chen tapped his hand on the table a few times.

"Have you found out what you are here for?"

Zhang Hu shook his head slightly: "The shopkeeper didn't ask any more questions, but he asked about Li Xian's residence!"

"Li Xian?"

Su Chen froze on the spot.

Zhang Hu hurriedly explained: "He is the current prince, the one who lives in Jushi Bay now. Although he was demoted, his status as prince has never been removed. He can also be regarded as the crown prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty!"

"Then this is a big fish. I don't know who Li Xian is. He must be very rich!"

Su Chen rubbed his hands gently.

"Sir, these two are women, we have to cheat..."

"Oh, no, are you doing business with them?"

"Be careful what you say next time!"

Su Chen glared at Zhang Hu and said angrily: "What is a pit? That is win-win cooperation. Whoever cooperates with us will make a lot of money! Who doesn't think of me, sir!"

"Sir, there are no outsiders here, so be careful about what you do!"

Zhang Hu said aggrievedly.

"shit!"

Su Chen shook his head helplessly: "Keep an eye on these two people. Don't alert them. In addition, find a smarter guy and go to Li Xian to find out what these two people are like."

"yes!"

Zhang Hu nodded, his eyes shining.

The night passed and it was early morning.

The first ray of sunlight filtered through the deep bamboo forest and fell mottled on the empress' bed. The empress woke up from the bed in a daze.

Then he stretched his waist comfortably.

"Your Majesty, are you awake? You haven't slept for so long in a while!"

Hu Meier said softly.

The empress glared at Hu Mei'er speechlessly: "How many times have you told me to call me miss! I just can't change it! What kind of bed is this? It's so comfortable to sleep on, it makes people a little tired!"

"Okay, miss, how about you rest a little longer? You look a lot better when you wake up. It seems that these ten taels of silver were well spent!"

Hu Meier's voice was very soft, with worry in her words.

"No more sleep!"

The empress got up and sat lazily on a wicker chair on the balcony.

It started to rain outside.

"Yazhou is really a good place..."

Hu Meier covered her mouth and smiled sweetly, and said easily: "Your Majesty, this kind of words can only be said in Yazhou. If you go to the capital of gods and say such things, I am afraid that many people will be scared to death. !”

"Yes, if you hadn't come here in person, who would have known that this frightening Yazhou would actually look like this!"

The empress rested for a moment.

There was a knock on the door outside.

"who?"

Hu Meier suddenly became alert and asked.

Outside the door, the shopkeeper's voice came: "Two guests, the shop has prepared some simple food. Do you need it?"

Hu Meier walked to the door.

He opened the door and glanced at the shopkeeper in front of him. He was holding a plate with some delicate pastries on it.

"Two guests, did you sleep well last night? This shop has prepared this for you two." The shopkeeper delivered the pastry.

"Is this just for us? Or is it available to everyone?"

Hu Meier asked in a somewhat strange way.

"Everyone has one, but the types of pastries are different in different rooms!" the shopkeeper said in a soft voice, nodding hurriedly.

"Um!"

Hu Meier nodded, and after taking the cake, she ignored the shopkeeper.

Instead, he walked back to the table beside the bed, placed the pastry on the table, carefully took out a silver needle from his clothes, and gently inserted the silver needle into the pastry.

After checking carefully.

He said to the empress: "No problem, you can eat it!"

"Let me try it!"

Looking at the delicate pastry, the empress suddenly became interested. She gently picked up one with two fingers and put it into her mouth.

Suddenly, a fragrance slowly penetrated into the mouth.

It was as if there was a fragrance of flowers. The secretly fresh and natural fragrance shocked the empress. He had never tasted such delicious food in the divine capital.

"This pastry is sweet and not greasy, but you put a lot of thought into it!"

The empress is particularly fond of this kind of sweet food.

He nodded slightly, looked at Hu Meier in front of him, and said happily: "When I go back, I can take some with me, but I don't know whether the inn made it itself or bought it elsewhere!"

"I'll just go find out about this!"

Hu Meier nodded: "Miss, it's time for us to set off."

"Um!"

The empress felt a little reluctant to part with her, and looked at the pastries again: "Take all these pastries with you, we will eat them on the way!"

"good!"

Hu Meier carefully put away these pastries.

After the two people left the inn, Hu Meier asked inquiringly: "Staff, did you make this pastry yourself in the store? Or did you buy it somewhere?"

"Oh, this thing!"

The shopkeeper hurriedly smiled and said: "We don't make such things in our shop. If you go north along this street, after passing five shops, you will encounter a shop named Cui Ji. This flower cake is from their shop. For sale!”
