Chapter 121 Confiscation of property and exile 14
Bai Lu replied, "Yes, Miss. We sent her there soon after the show started."
Zhu Yue nodded and said, "I'll give you a task. Ask around the theater to see if there are any troupes that can perform in the mansion. If possible, you can let the young lady take a look."
Zhu Wan almost never goes out, and Zhu Yue doesn't want to force her, but many plays are quite interesting and can broaden one's mind. She can call them over to the house for Zhu Wan to watch.
The egret agreed.
After returning to the mansion, Zhu Yue drank a bowl of goat's milk in the evening, and asked Qiuyu and Bailu to leave so that they didn't have to keep watch for her.
After extinguishing the candle, Zhu Yue blocked the door with a cabinet and slipped into the space.
First check if the plays I watched and listened to today are recorded.
She had this idea a long time ago. From the first time she heard it, she felt that such art should be preserved and she wanted to watch it over and over again.
If this wasn't ancient times and there were records, Zhu Yue might have opened a few boxes and put them in the space.
She didn't pay much attention to it, but some news kept coming to her ears.
Master Zhu has hooked up with Lord Pei and is now helping him with some things. Needless to say, these things are definitely related to the Second Prince.
The current situation in the court is probably tense, because the second prince, who was so far away from the capital, recently returned. The first thing he did after returning was to go to several martial arts training grounds in the suburbs and outside the city.
The signal is very clear.
Zhu Yue thought about it. Although she felt that the Second Prince was a smart man, he had a good chance of winning.
But there are always unexpected things, so we have to be prepared.
Thinking of this, she closed her eyes, recalled the face she saw last time in her mind, and activated her precognitive ability.
I want to see if this person will be the final winner.
In the scene, the second prince led his troops to attack the imperial city and tore up the edict left by the old emperor that the seventh prince would succeed to the throne.
His gentle eyes were the same as always, and he calmly gave the order to kill all the brothers, leaving no one alive.
The winner takes it all, and the elimination of potential threats is a bit too ruthless, but not all emperors are like that, so it's not a big problem.
But the next scene made Zhu Yue stunned. After Liu Xi killed his brothers, the second person he killed was the Zhu family. Of course, not her Zhu family. She also saw clearly from the scene that the Zhu family was probably related to Liu Xi's mother. There were hundreds of people in the family, and no one was spared, and blood flowed like a river.
The whole court and the public were shocked. No one expected that the Second Prince's gentleness was only on the surface, and he was so cruel inside.
However, even if they wanted to support someone else, they couldn't find a second candidate because they were all killed. This tyrant didn't even have a son.
The last scene on the screen is that Liu Xi has people carry many tables of betrothal gifts, wanting to take Zhu Yue as his imperial concubine.
After watching it, Zhu Yue was first happy that Liu Xi became the final winner.
Later, his eyes sparkled with fire because of his imperial edict.
She asked herself, she had no contact with this prince except for that one meeting, so the imperial edict was really strange.
Is it because he was attracted by the original owner's face?
Zhu Yue touched the soft cheek. This face was indeed very beautiful, worthy of the title of the most beautiful woman.
The most beautiful thing about her is her pair of clear eyes that seem to want to say something but cannot.
When thinking of the most beautiful woman in the capital, Zhu Yue thought of the death of the original owner.
She has already taken revenge on the coveted prince.
He used a curse talisman, and you can tell without even looking at the outcome that it won't be good.
As for Liu Xi, she couldn't decide what to do with him now because of the future will.
She thought about the year when Liu Xi ascended the throne in the picture. It should be in the past two years.
We must leave Youzhou City before Liu Xi ascends the throne.
"The old lady won't hold on for much longer, so there's no problem taking Zhu Yin away." Zhu Yue was no longer in a hurry as there was still time.
Since she couldn't practice meditation in this life, she would listen to operas, read storybooks, and occasionally replicate ancient delicacies and pastries in her space in her free time.
Especially her favorite lotus cake, she made several large boxes of it, the quantity was so large that it could be eaten as a meal for several years.
In addition to lotus cake, there are also osmanthus cake, red bean cake, crabapple cake, jade dew cake, heyi cake, thousand-layer cake, apricot blossom cake, rose cake, wick cake and so on.
The rose and red bean cake and almond vanishing cream are as delicious as the lotus cake. Zhu Yue also made a large number of finished products and stored them.
Every six of them were sealed with a vacuum machine, stuffed into a box, and piled up into a mountain.
In addition to pastries, she also stocks a lot of vegetarian food.
Every night when I have nothing to do, I will cook a dozen pots of rice, steamed buns and dumplings in the space. The dumplings have various fillings, mostly spicy.
Now I will try to use the rest of my life to turn all the food collected in the space into finished products, leaving only a small portion as seeds.
She categorized the items in her space and set up a special area for food.
The steamed buns, rice, steamed buns and other foods during this period have already filled half of the large warehouse. Zhu Yue feels that it will take at least hundreds of warehouses to use up all this food.
Fortunately, the thing she has the most is time.
And she really enjoyed the process of cooking the food, mainly because there were various pots available and she just had to put them in and wait.
While waiting, she finished watching a lot of movies she had saved up, and now she has started watching TV series.
"Yuer, why haven't I seen you go out recently?" Zhu Wan came in slowly, with a maid behind her holding a food box in her hands.
He was opening the food box and taking out various cakes one by one.
"Try my new spiced cake."
Zhu Yue took a piece to taste. As soon as she took a sip, she smelled a faint aroma of Taoist tea. Combined with the mellow and soft taste in her mouth, it was truly a great enjoyment.
"It's delicious, big sister. I didn't expect you to actually come up with this five-spice cake. I also saw the recipe at that time, but it didn't taste good."
Zhu Wan smiled softly and said, "I have improved a few places. Use 20% of white glutinous rice and 60% of polished rice, 10% of dried ginseng, 10% of ginseng, Atractylodes macrocephala, Poria cocos, and Amomum villosum. Grind them very finely and sieve them. Mix them with boiling water made of white sugar and put them in a steamer. Add 40% of ginseng, 20% of Atractylodes macrocephala, 20% of Poria cocos, 10% of ginseng, and 10% of Amomum villosum to one dou of powder. Grind them into a fine powder, mix them together, and add one liter of white sugar."
Zhu Yue's eyes lit up and he said hurriedly, "Wait, I'll write it down on paper."
Zhu Wan smiled again, "No need to write, I have already prepared a new recipe, here, just put it away."
Sure enough, there was an extra piece of bamboo paper on the table.
"No matter why you haven't been going out during this period, promise me that you won't go out again. The old lady is not in good condition. Don't give others any handle at this critical juncture." Zhu Wan quickly changed the subject to the main business. This was also the reason why she came to see Zhu Yue in the snow.
Zhu Yue understood and nodded obediently.
She wasn't planning to go out anyway.
Many of the opera troupes that Qiuyu asked were able to go to work, but not in the next few months.
After the old lady's health deteriorated, she never mentioned the matter again. Even though an elderly person in her family was sick and dying, she still called in a troupe of actors to listen to a play. This kind of behavior was very explosive in ancient times.
It is possible that you will be caught and forced to break into a pig cage.
