After noon, the girl from Qi State was no longer able to do it and wanted to camp and rest.

Although Jiya felt that time was too late and did not want to slow down, the weak woman in Qi State was not a stubborn thing. She kept moving and vomited wildly. The medical officer and maid were ordered to go around. In the end, there was no way, Jiya had to bite the bullet and promise to set up camp and rush to go tomorrow.

Because their journey was too slow, the envoys of Qi later rushed up and arrived at the camp this afternoon to meet with the team who were sending their brides.

Qi had sent someone to mention it to Qi Lu before, and Qi's Congress sent another envoy to send a bride. Because Qi's mission was kidnapped, Lu Fu, the Duke of Qi, was worried about sending the bride. Qi attached great importance to this marriage with Zheng, so he sent another envoy to come.

The envoy this time was the eldest son of Lu Fu, the current orthodox prince of Qi State, and the eldest brother of Duke Huan of Qi, the first leader of the Spring and Autumn Period, and was named Zhuer.

The crown prince Zhuer is the legitimate son of Lu Fu, the crown prince is legitimate, but because of his very good relationship with his younger brother Yi Zhongnian, Lu Fu prefers his nephew, Gongsun Wuzhi.

Although Gongsun Wuzhi was Gongsun, not the prince, nor the prince, his food and clothing were far superior to the other two princes of Qi. He was exactly the same as Prince Zhuer. Even because Gongsun Wuzhi was handsome and sensible, he was very "behaved" and was very good at beloved by his elders. Therefore, Lu Fu, the Duke of Qi, loved this sensible nephew more than his son, and once joked that his second son Gongzi Jiu and his third son Gongzi Xiaobai were still young, and his eldest son Zhuer was not talented. If he could not do it, it would be better to pass the throne to Gongsun Wuzhi.

Because of this joke by Lu Fu, the Duke of Qi, Gongsun Wuzhi's status in Qi was unmatched. This time, such a big task of sending a bride fell on Gongsun Wuzhi's shoulders. He went to Zheng State for a trip. He could not get any money and could still recruit Zheng State's connections. It was indeed a good thing.

But something happened to the Qi delegation, and the Duke of Qi Lufu was worried. When the prince saw that there was an opportunity, how could Gongsun Wuzhi be able to let Gongsun Wuzhi be happy? He immediately reported to the Duke of Qi Lufu, "pled a petition in the face of danger" and invited him to be the second special envoy of Qi to come to help.

So in this way, the prince of Qi, and Gongsun Wuzhi, who was like the prince of Qi, all became special envoys to send off their parents.

The woman of Qi State was too slow. The second envoy of the Duke of Qi had arrived and would arrive at the camp soon. The envoy of Qi State was the prince of Qi State. Although his status was extremely noble, he was still of the same level as the emperor. Therefore, Ji Lin could not greet him personally, and he was too face. This task fell on Qi Lu's shoulders.

Qi Lu was the teacher of the emperor, so he had a very high status and was the leader of the Three Dukes. Welcoming the envoys of Qi was a little bit younger. In that era, the old ministers would usually take action to welcome the envoys. There was an unwritten rule that the older people came out to greet them, the more respect they could show. Qi Lu was already in a high position, but he was always a little younger. Fortunately, the prince Zhuer was not old and was younger than Qi Lu, so there was nothing wrong with it.

Qi Lu and his group came to the camp gate and saw the prince Zhuer.

Prince Zhuer stood on the carriage, traveling lightly and simply, speeding all the way. He soon arrived at the camp gate, jumped off the carriage, bowed to Qi Lu and said, "Crown Prince Zhuer of Qi, have met Taifu Qi."

When Qi Lu looked at Prince Zhuer in afar, he felt a sigh in his heart. No wonder the Duke of Qi Lufu liked Gongsun Wuzhi more. Qi Lu was not a party with appearance, but when he saw this, the first impression of Prince Zhuer and Gongsun Wuzhi was too far apart.

Although Gongsun Wuzhi is a playboy, he looks extremely well-behaved. He is the kind of obedient and obedient type who is particularly fond of the elderly and is also fond of girls. And this prince is very young, but he looks a little old and has a greasy feeling that comes to his face.

To put it bluntly, Gongsun Wuzhi's appearance can make people fall in love at first sight, and the prince Zhuer obviously cannot win by appearance.

Qi Lu bowed and returned the ceremony and said, "Prince Qi is so polite."

They complimented each other. Although Qi Lu was afraid of trouble, welcoming the special envoy was a troublesome job and he still had to go through the procedures.

At this moment, someone came late from the camp, stretched his waist and yawned, and his lazy tendons seemed to have not stretched out, and said, "Oh, isn't this the prince's elder brother?"

There are not many people who can call the eldest brother of the prince, and there is only one person in this marching camp - Gongsun Wuzhi.

The envoys from Qi State came, except for the royal family to welcome them, Qi State's own people must also be prepared. However, Gongsun Wuzhi came late, and looked lazy and had no sincerity in speaking. He said, "The prince is here. When did he come? Why haven't I heard of it?"

When the prince Zhuer saw Gongsun Wuzhi, his face immediately fell down. He narrowed his eyes and said, "Mr. and Father, I will take over your position as the special envoy to send your bride."

Gongsun Wuzhi sneered and said, "Don't let your bad luck!"

Qi Lu: "..." Qi Lu knew that Gongsun Wuzhi and Prince Zhuer were in disagreement, but he didn't expect that they would start arguing so directly.

Gongsun Wuzhi said: "Your Majesty just asked you to help me as a special envoy to send a bride. What are you going to do to replace me? The prince of Qi is fake to pass the imperial edict. If you hear about it, you can't afford to take care of it!"

The meaning of the Duke of Qi Lufu was to let them be the special envoys together. The prince Zhuer said this in order to rub Gongsun Wuzhi's aura, but he didn't know that he was robbed by Gongsun Wuzhi.

Gongsun Wuzhi scolded Prince Zhuer, not at all polite. He also arrogantly raised his chin, yawned, waved his hand and said, "Mengyang, let's go. I am trapped in Gongsun and don't want to hear the dog barking!"

"You!" The prince Zhuer's face turned pale, but Gongsun Wuzhi had already left, and after a break, he went back.

Qi Lu raised his eyebrows and thought to himself, "Want, fight, the more fierce the fight, the better. If the snipe and clam fight, can he be the fisherman benefit, right?"

In the afternoon, they camped in the camp to rest. There was nothing else. Qi Lu rested early. As soon as the sky was dawn the next day, Qi Lu woke up by shaking, with Ji Lin's low voice in his ears.

"Tao Fu, are you awake?"

"Tao Fu?"

"Tao Fu..."

Qi Lu thought he was about to go on a rush, and listened to the emperor's voice calling the soul, he opened his eyes exhausted. When he opened it, he suddenly felt that the sky was a little dark, and it seemed that it was still very early, and it was a little time before departure.

Qi Lu's eyelids wanted to stick together, and she felt like a date in her mouth, saying, "Let Lu sleep for a while..."

"Taifu," the emperor "restless and unyielding", shook Qi Lu gently and said, "Taifu, how about my crown?"

Head crown?

Qi Lu tried his best to almost "break open" a gap of eyes, giving the emperor a sleepy look. Early in the morning, the emperor was dressed neatly, different from usual, and even wore a fancy head crown.

Qi Lu said vaguely: "Ah...? Head crown? Very good, good, good..."

It was obviously perfunctory, and after doing it, I had to close my eyes and go to bed again.

Ji Lin shook Qi Lu again, worked tirelessly, and said, "Trial tutor, don't sleep, look, I'm so beautiful?"

The emperor doesn't pay much attention to wearing it on weekdays. After all, the emperor is "naturally beautiful" and is born with a clothes rack. It looks good in everything you wear. You can wear whatever you want. Qi Lu wondered why he changed his temperament today and insisted on letting himself see his crown?

Ji Lin said: "Tao Fu, take a closer look. My crown is the same as my grandson wore yesterday. Is it good to wear it?"

When Qi Lu heard it at first, he finally understood. Yesterday, Qi Lu said to Gongsunzi, "Your hat looks so good." At that time, Qi Lu sighed that Gongsunzi would be cuckolded. If they had not discovered that the daughter of Qi was pregnant, Gongsunzi would have married the daughter of Qi. Wouldn't he be cuckolded and become a buyer and a cheap dad? Therefore, Qi Lu sighed that your hat looks so good, and he sighed completely with a sneer. He didn't know that the emperor had a generation gap with him, and a big gap of thousands of years.

Ji Lin did not catch the funny point at all. Instead, he thought Qi Lu really liked Gongsun Zidu's head crown, so he started to "the emperor dress up game" early this morning. He changed several head crowns and specially found the same style as Gongsun Zidu.

The emperor does not pay attention to wearing it on weekdays, and his clothes are also a black contrast to the noble of the Nine Five. Gongsunzi is more concerned about appearance. Gongsunzi is not only the most beautiful man in Zheng State, but also the "fashion vane" of the vassal states. Gongsunzi's head crown is much "fancy" than the emperor's head crown. Ji Lin was very thoughtful and deliberately made it overnight. He sent it here early this morning and couldn't wait to put it on and let Qi Lu see it.

Qi Lu: "..."

Taifu Qi suddenly became speechless in an instant, and he was completely speechless. He was dispelled by the emperor's silly aura. However, it has to be said that the emperor is already handsome enough if he doesn't dress up on weekdays. If he dresses up, he will look...sexy!

The handsome aura seemed to blow up, and it seemed to leak, and it couldn't stop it no matter how hard it was.

Qi Lu had no choice but to cooperate with the emperor to change clothes early in the morning. He was no longer sleepy and it was still early, so he prepared to go to the kitchen to make breakfast for the emperor. He could make some milk skins to make butter. Both the emperor and the monks like to eat the delicious butter. Qi Lu planned to accumulate more butter.

After Qi Lu washed up, he asked the emperor to "beautiful" in the tent and went to the kitchen by himself.

It was too early, and the chefs didn't get up, and Qi Lu was the only one in the kitchen.

Qi Lu made some milk and was about to lift the milk. Unexpectedly, footsteps came here at this time. Qi Lu thought it was Shifu who came, but he didn't know that when he looked at it, he saw a touch of skirt.

This is clearly a woman's skirt!

Qi Lu was in the kitchen, so the woman who walked in did not see Qi Lu and whispered: "You go outside and guard it. If someone comes, come and tell me quickly, can you tell me?"

: : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : :

Prince Zhuer said again: "Sister, don't you believe me? I have my own way and I will definitely be able to protect my sister carefully, so you can rest assured."

The woman from Qi asked: "What is the method?"

The prince Zhu'er didn't say it, but said, "Sister, just don't worry, I will have everything."

For some reason, the prince Zhuer just didn't tell the perfect way, but just comforted the daughter of Qi. Not to mention, Zhuer had a good skill in his slickness. Although he looked average and had a greasy idea, he was also a greasy one. Moreover, whether it was the daughter of Qi or the future sister Wen Jiang, they were all first-class and stunning beauties. Such a beautiful woman fell in love with Zhuer, which showed that Zhuer had a good trick of coaxing people.

The two of them talked for a while, and the maid came in and told the news: "Mr. Guo, let's go quickly! The husbands are coming!"

The woman from Qi State was reluctant to part with Zhu'er, but in order not to be discovered, she left quickly. The two of them deliberately avoided suspicion.

After Qi Lu waited for them to leave, he patted the soil from behind the stove, stood up, smiled, and said, "The kitchen is really a good place to listen to the wall."

Qi Lu didn't know how many walls he heard in the kitchen. In fact, it was not because Qi Lu was lucky. It had nothing to do with luck. After all, places like the kitchen had their own "halo" in ancient times. Everyone thought the kitchen was ugly and difficult to enter the elegant hall. They all despise the kitchen and felt that planning in such a vulgar place would never be discovered.

Who knows that Taifu Qi likes to go to "dirty" places?

Qi Lu immediately left the kitchen and prepared to share the big melon with the emperor. The emperor guessed wrongly. My brother's relative was not Gongsun Wuzhi, but the prince's son.

Qi Lu jogged all the way with great enthusiasm and returned to the emperor's tent. When the emperor saw Qi Lu come back, he was very happy and said with a smile: "Tao Fu, where is the breakfast?"

Qi Lu woke up and took care of eating melons. He completely forgot breakfast and said blankly: "I forgot to do it..."

Emperor: "..."

Qi Lu shared the melon with the emperor, Ji Lin frowned and said, "It turns out it's the prince Zhuer."

The crown prince is the future crown prince of Qi, which represents the face of Qi. Zhu'er has always been misbehaving and likes to mess with things. This time, it has caused a big disaster. Recently, Qi Lu thought it was Gongsun Wuzhi, and this matter was already very interesting. Now Gongsun jumped to the crown prince of Qi. The crown prince of Qi cuckolded Gongsun of Zheng. This was a shocking scandal and it was even more of the year's drama.

Qi Lu touched his chin and said, "Let's not alert the enemy. Let's expose it after entering Zheng State. How can Qi and Zheng State marry?"

This wedding is destined to be very lively...

Qi Lu said again: "It's just a little bit."

The emperor said, "What? What are the Grand Tutors still worried about?"

Qi Lu said: "Lu just heard that the prince and his sons had their own way to tell the women of Qi that they should not worry."

The daughter of Qi State is pregnant, and it is about to be three months old. She immediately appears. Prince Zhuer doesn't let her worry. Qi Lu wants to know what this method is.

Qi Lu is so smart and has so many ghost ideas, but there is no way to understand this. Is the prince Zhuer perfunctory to the daughter of Qi? But if the matter is exposed and such a big scandal is inseparable from the prince Zhuer, he will definitely be implicated, and it should not be perfunctory.

Qi Lu planned to use this butter to make a sweet and sour food, which is not only appetizing, but also full of fruit pie!

Speaking of fruit pie, Qi Lu's favorite is apple pie. The pie is mixed with thick butter, and it is roasted and it is crispy and fragrant when you bite it. The filling is made of apple sauce made from apples. The sauce is fragrant and sweet. The apples are fried without being spoiled at all. It removes excess water and retains the sweetest and crispy chewyness. The taste is really subtle, as if it is a sublimation of fruit.

Anyway, the apple pie made by Qi Lu has praised many people who don’t like to eat fruit, and I wish I could eat an eight-inch big apple pie in one breath.

There are no apples these days, but there are many fruits in the Spring and Autumn Period, which are not as scarce as imagined. For example, grapes, the Book of Songs record "June ecstasy and sausage", which is actually wild grapes, so to be precise, grapes and sesame seeds were not introduced during the reign of Emperor Wu of Han. They have existed since ancient times, but have only been ignored.

Not only grapes, but there is actually a kind of "apple" these days, called "thorn". "thorn and apples are plants of the Rosaceae family, which look similar in appearance. In ancient times, there was always the saying that Dayu had eaten purple thorns. "thorns" were one of the fruits in ancient China. According to records, they should be softer "apples". However, after the apples were introduced to China, crispy and sweet apples quickly replaced the purple thorns, and the purple thorns disappeared on the stage of history.
