Chapter 616 Exploration

  Thyme is a good princess.

   She doesn't have the pretensions of a princess, and she's also a very nice person.

   But no matter how good she is, she is the third princess after all, a princess who gets along very well with the empress.

  Joy believed that Thyme herself would not do anything to her Qiao Cheng.

   But the point is that she has an empress behind her.

  Yes, the thirteen and fourteen princesses are all with her, but there is no guarantee that the queen will abandon them.

  When she was in the capital, the queen seemed to be very kind to her, but only Qiao Yi knew in her heart that she was dancing on the tip of a knife, and she was in danger every step of the way.

   Not to mention anything else, but which one of the incidents in the capital was voluntary?

   The Queen has always asked her to do it. And her attitude is tough, and she will not be allowed to refute.

   What's more, in the face of absolute interests, family, friendship, love, whatever it is, will be worthless.

  Joy rubbed the center of her brows, there was no way for her to think so blindly.

  The best way is to ask yourself.

  After asking Thyme, she is going to ask Sixian Sixiu.

  No matter what, after asking, she has a good idea, doesn't she?

   "Third sister, let me ask you a question."

   Qiao Yi came to the residence of the third princess, and shouted straight to the point.

   In fact, the sound is not loud, just enough for Thyme, who is almost moldy, to hear.

  She has done everything Joey asked her to do before.

   Originally wanted to find Qiao Yi, and asked Qiao Yi to find something for her to do, but Thirteen ran over and suddenly told her not to get too involved in Qiao Cheng's affairs.

  They are guests, and as guests, they just have to watch.

  Hearing what Thirteen said, Thyme became depressed.

  Because she thought of it too.

  A few days ago, she received a letter from the Queen Mother. In the letter, the Queen Mother actually asked her to arrange for someone to gain Qiao Yi's trust, and then occupy a place in Qiao City.

  The Empress gave her three tasks in total.

   This is just one of them.

   Another task is to let her buy Tong Yue and Shen Bing, as well as everyone around Qiao Yi who can be bought.

  But remember not to let Joey find out.

  Is this a mission?

   This is simply embarrassing, okay?

  The last task was even more difficult, and she had to secretly arrange for 10,000 soldiers to live in Qiao City.

  This is simply nonsense.

  Is Joey so easy to fool?

   Qiaocheng is quite big, but the place where you can really live in is the city center that is now built.

  The city center is a very important place.

   Qiaoyi must be strict in reviewing. If she arranges people to go in, won't it be right to catch one? !

   I really don't know what the empress thinks.

  People are building a city, and the mother is far away in the capital, so she still has to worry about the affairs of Qiaocheng. This is really a panic.

  If you have that time, you might as well think about how to fight with neighboring countries.

   "Sisters and sisters, why do you have time to come to me today? You are going to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, so tell me, what is it?"

  Thyme calmed down and looked at Joey with a smile.

  As for the mission given by the Queen Mother, Quite Niang's mission, she can't do it at all.

  Three tasks, none of which are difficult.

   "I'll make two dishes first, let's chat while eating."

  As soon as Joey rolled his eyes, he had an idea.

  If you ask too bluntly, it will make people sad.

   After all, she was the one who suspected first.

  So it's better for her to be more subtle.

   "That's very nice, please."

  Thyme was about to drink a little wine to relieve his worries. After all, this was the first time he had not listened to the Queen since he grew up. Unexpectedly, Joey bumped into him himself.

   "Okay, wait for a while."

  Joe didn't cook those time-wasting dishes, but made two cold dishes and a plate of peanuts.

   With two jugs of wine, it's perfect.

   "I said brother and sister, you said these two dishes are delicious? Isn't this too deceiving?"

  Thyme frowned as she looked at the grass-like vegetables in front of her.

   "This is not to fool people, it is called cold dishes. Not all dishes need to be made on the stove."

  Joy rolled her eyes at Thyme, secretly thinking that the princess is the queen, and if she has experienced it, she will still be the queen.

   She doesn't know many things.

   "Cold dishes?"

   Thyme was puzzled, then picked up the chopsticks and put some shredded cabbage in the dish. Then put it in your mouth and chew it carefully.

   Not to mention, this is sweet and sour, very refreshing.

   Originally, Thyme, which got a little angry because of the letter from the mother these days, really didn't have much appetite.

  But after taking a bite of this white cold dish, she found that she had an appetite.

   "How is it? Isn't it great?"

  Joy is still confident about this dish.

   This is Chinese cabbage that has been stored for nearly a winter.

   At this time, the excess water of the cabbage has long since disappeared, and the rest is the essence.

  She then took the cabbage heart and cut it into shreds, then simply put a little less vinegar and mixed it, and an authentic vinegar mixed cabbage shreds was completed.

  If this dish is eaten by ordinary people, it may not feel so delicious.

  But for those who are used to eating big fish and big meat, this is the most delicious dish.

  Crisp and refreshing, this is very good with rice.

  But Naihe didn't have food at this time, only wine.

  Joy poured wine for himself and Thyme, and then drank a glass himself.

   "Not bad not bad, really good."

  Thyme nodded, then took another bite of shredded cabbage mixed with vinegar, and then drank the wine in the glass.

  The two of you came and went, and after drinking almost, Thyme asked Joey.

   "Sister and sister, I'm afraid you didn't just come to me for a drink today, did you?"

   It seems that they have drunk so much, but neither of them is drunk.

  He is actually quite awake in his head.

   "Third sister, this is the second time you ask me what's the matter. Why do I feel that you are more anxious than me? Or do you know why I came to you?"

   Qiaoyi raised her eyebrows and looked at Thyme with a smile.

   "I'm afraid that you will waste time. After you finish talking to me, can't you be busy with other things?"

   Thyme said awkwardly.

   It's because she was too anxious, it's really a waste of time to drink some wine

   "Third sister, this is not like you."

   Qiao Yi said it meaningfully. Then keep drinking.

  Thyme was taken aback when she heard the words, then smiled wryly.

   Is it important to look like or not?

  No matter what, she is the princess of Otsuki first, and then Thyme.

   "Sister, how about I tell you a story?"

  Joy spoke again.

"it is good."

  Thyme nodded, then ate peanuts, waiting for Joey to tell a story.

  Joy directly told Thyme a story that you can't have both.

  She believed that as a smart person, Thyme would definitely understand what she meant.

   Sure enough, Thyme fell silent after Joey finished telling the story.

   After a long time, Thyme opened her mouth.

   "If it were me, I would only want one of them, and I would never let him go. I won't be able to use the bamboo basket to fetch water in time."

  Listening to what Thyme said, Joey frowned.

  It seems that Thyme is planning to go all the way to the dark.

  Either they are enemies, or they are friends.

   "If it were me, I don't want either. Fish and bear's paws are not what I want, what I want is the water."

  Thyme: "…"

  Why did the more I talked, the more confused I became?

  It’s obviously a story about a fish and a bear, so why is it getting involved?
