Chapter 282: So as not to scare me for a moment
This time, Nalan Kuexu rarely recognized his elder brother's words.
After returning home, he reported to Nalan Mingzhu.
Nalan Mingzhu touched the almost non-existent beard on his chin and said, "Kui Xu, your feeling this time is probably right."
"I'm afraid there's going to be a big commotion in the palace."
Nalan Kuexu quickly reacted: "Is it related to the previous death of Hirazon?"
Nalan Mingzhu nodded happily: "The emperor recently sent people to check many people in Prince Zhan Shifu, but there has been no movement."
"You know the style of our Banzai Lord. He has always been an excellent hunter."
"Kui Xu, do you know what conditions a good hunter needs to meet?"
Nalan Kuexu answered quickly: "You must be good at riding and shooting, you must have good eyesight, and you must be ruthless in your attacks."
Nalan Mingzhu nodded: "He has all these emperors. Not only that, he also has what a hunter needs most, which is patience. He will spot the most accurate time and hit with one hit."
"Until then, he will remain dormant and not let anyone notice any movement."
Nalan Kuexu had an epiphany: "Ama is talking about the story of Long Live Master's clever capture of Obei when he was young?"
"What I'm saying is that he has always been the young man who cleverly captured Obei." Nalan Mingzhu looked at the holy heather outside the window and asked after a moment, "This time, the emperor has dismissed your duties, what will you do next?" Any plans?"
"When I return to Ama, my eldest brother asked me to continue helping him with the promotion of Hunan rice. It just so happens that I plan to go directly to the local area so that I can directly understand the relevant matters and handle them faster."
"Compared to the mysterious man who disappeared, I think we can see results faster."
"Furthermore, good rice is related to people's livelihood. As long as my son does well enough, there is hope for his reinstatement."
Nalan Mingzhu turned around and said, "You have already planned it, right?"
"The guards are certainly close to the emperor, but they are also close to the eldest brother."
Nalan Kuexu also smiled: "Isn't this what I had in mind when Ama asked me to agree to help my eldest brother?"
Deliberately letting him make a small mistake at this time to avoid the danger of sudden changes in the palace.
Looking at his son who turned the corner, Nalan Mingzhu also smiled: "Okay, then prepare yourself and set off immediately. While the sun is just right, you can go south all the way faster. If you are late, you will encounter It’s the flood season in the south.”
"Amma, what a wonderful plan."
"You are Amma's son. If you were out and encountered a flood season, wouldn't Amma be worried?"
"Kui Xu, your eldest brother is in poor health. You are luckier than him and can travel south and north of the Yangtze River. I will act as my father and you as your brother. Please see more of these thousands of miles of rivers and mountains."
This was the first time Nalan Mingzhu took the initiative to mention her deceased elder brother in front of him.
Nalan Kuexu's eyes turned red for a moment: "Amma, you still have a son."
"Okay, okay, let's go. Remember to say goodbye to Eni properly so that she won't worry."
"Son, don't worry."

No coincidence.
Lu Pheasant came to the palace today to pay his respects and heard about concubine Hui drinking all the bitter medicine every day.
The good concubine pinched her nose: "The smell of the medicine residue poured under the eaves was so bitter that Jingba, who was raised by Xiao Bing, could smell it and wilt every day. She just wanted to stay in the corridor and refused to run around."
All the concubines in the room laughed.
Nowadays, the good concubine is following Concubine De and Sifu Jin. She has received gifts from several concubines and can even joke with them.
The concubine Mi felt that the good concubine was born and raised more like a Jiangnan girl than she was. She smiled and said: "Then you might as well imitate Concubine Virtue and raise a few more long-haired cats. Their noses are not as sharp as those of dogs. I think it won't be a hardship." .”
Concubine Hesheli said: "She should also be allowed to taste the pain of Huang Lian in the Taiyuan Hospital, just in time to relieve the anger in her heart."
Only then did Lu Pheasant glance at her.
In history, this concubine who borrowed the ceremonial guard from Concubine Hui for burial after her death, could it be possible that she had an "old relationship" with the Nala family?
But right now, she has other things to be busy with.
During these days, when Fourth Brother returned to Baotangyuan, Xiao Fujin would ask him to test different insect repellents and mosquito repellents.
This time, there was still a small ointment on his left hand and right hand. Brother Si asked doubtfully: "Hasn't Fujin found suitable mosquito repellent materials?"
Lu Pheasant observed his skin and said casually: "There are a lot of mosquitoes in summer. Wouldn't it be better to try more at once?"
"Are you still bored?"
Xiao Fujin's ability to hit people with a rake is also improving now.
Brother Si said: "Don't worry. But you won't want to try eating any big or small insects today, right?"
That day, when the meal was passed around, there was a folding table covered tightly with food and drink.
When Brother Si ordered someone to open it, Fujin stopped him: "Come one by one."
Looking at the confused look on his fourth brother's face, Lu Pheasant said: "So as not to scare me for a moment."
Brother Si smiled confidently.
Su Peisheng immediately understood his intention and opened the four or five dishes in front of him at once.
Suddenly, the table full of long and short strips, black and white, came into view.
The fourth elder brother's expression changed.
Su Peisheng and Xiao Lizi shook their little hands and covered them again: "Fu Jin, this, this is..."
Lu Zhi said with a smile: "There is a new cook in the house. It just so happens that she can cook the snacks from Yunnan and Guizhou. I was curious for a while. I didn't expect it, but it still scared me."
The fourth elder brother was naturally unconvinced.
Su Peisheng spoke on his behalf: "Fu Jin, you can't bully someone who doesn't know this."
"The food in Yunnan and Guizhou is endless. Ham, fruits, pepper, gorse, lotus root starch, blood sausage, meat, and sweet liquor are all available. Otherwise, there are pine mushrooms all over the world in Yunnan and Guizhou. How can we eat these long white strips? thing."
This Su Peisheng is really a talent.
I can come up with a dish name casually.
Lu Pheasant: "Eunuch Su is well-informed. But I asked the cook to make some new things because I didn't expect her to come up with such an idea. It's exactly the right idea, but it's a bit off-topic."
Si Age naturally captured the key word - Yunnan and Guizhou.
"Is Fujin planning something?"
Lu Pheasant said with a smile: "I'm just kidding. I'm just greedy, how come it's my plan?"
The fourth elder brother ignored it and didn't mention it.
I'm just grateful for the folding table.
However, Xiao Fujin seemed quite interested, and after that, he occasionally saw one or two long white stripes on the table.
After Si Age got used to it, he slowly regained his composure and was able to act as if he had seen nothing.
Lu Zhi was well aware of the grudges of a young lover. She shook her head and said, "No, today I'm going to eat steam pot chicken and braised chicken. It's said to be Yundian flavor too. I heard they like to add panax notoginseng powder, which is quite delicious." A way to maintain good health.”
Today's meal finally went smoothly.
At night, after getting on the bed, Si Age said, "Fu Jin, that's enough mosquito repellent."
"The mosquito species in Yunnan and Guizhou are different from those in the capital, and presumably the efficacy of the medicine is also different."
Lu Pheasant knew that he had guessed it a long time ago: "I know. It is said that the size and speed are much larger, and some of them can fly. It's scary to think about it."
"I just thought, bring more, this one is useless and that one may be useful, so as not to suffer later."
"Has Fujin guessed when I will leave?"
Hearing this, Lu Zhi turned over and lay on the bed, looking at him with bright eyes: "When will you leave?"
Brother Si smiled: "You don't even know that you are so prepared."
"You just don't know, so you should prepare for a rainy day."
Fourth Brother Danfeng glanced over and saw the snow-white spring scenery under the loose skirt of the girl's clothes.
He blushed for a moment.
