Chapter 132 I advise you to be kind

When Zhuang Wan woke up, Yan Cheng was not there. The snow was falling lightly, and occasionally the light shadows of a few snowflakes were reflected through the thin window paper.

She put on her clothes and opened the door. Yan Cheng was not in the yard, but a hot pot was set up on the stone table under the grape trellis. It was steaming. There were mutton slices and various side dishes prepared on the table.

On such a cold day, she had been thinking about eating hot pot, but it happened to happen today.

She ran out impatiently, picked up the vegetables and put them into the pot. The soup in the pot was milky white and steaming. It must have been made from bones.

Kyoto loves mutton, and mutton soup restaurants can be found everywhere on the streets. She was born in the south and has never eaten mutton. The only time she ate it, she almost vomited when she smelled the smell, and the shadow is still there. Besides, there were no chili peppers in ancient times, and all kinds of mutton.

The seasonings were not complete, which would make it more difficult to eat. So she just put other vegetables into the pot and boiled them, leaving the mutton untouched.

While she was rubbing her hands and swallowing her saliva, Yan Cheng came out of the kitchen with a bowl in hand. Seeing her thin clothes, she undoubtedly started to mutter again.

"It's okay, I'll get hot after eating, and I'll sweat for a while!" Zhuang Wan said.

Yan Cheng was not willing to listen to her, so he went back to the house, took out the charcoal stove, placed it next to her, and took out a pure white cloak to put on her.

Zhuang Wan touched the smooth and soft fur. It was white and shiny, without a trace of mottled color. It must be worth a lot of money. After all, there was no artificial fur in ancient times, and fur was all ripped from animals.

"What...is this made of?"

Yan Cheng smiled and said: "I hunted two white foxes when I was in Qinglong Mountain, so I made this cloak for you."

Zhuang Wan sighed.

What a real punishment!

She, a modern person, sounded a little scared at first. Of course, there is no comparison between ancient times and modern times. There is nothing to protect animals, and Yan Cheng couldn't understand what "no buying or selling means no killing".

"It's good. Just do this one thing. Don't hunt anymore. After all, you still have two lives."

She wanted Yan Cheng to learn to be kind to all living beings, even animals. She didn’t know what would happen in the future, and she couldn’t guarantee that Yan Cheng would not turn black. She only hoped that even if he turned black, he would not kill innocent people indiscriminately and cause trouble.

Creatures.

Of course Yan Cheng knew that she was kind-hearted and responded with a smile: "Okay! I will listen to you."

He blanched a piece of mutton and gave it to her, "Mutton is warm in nature and the most nourishing. You should eat more."

Zhuang Wan quickly dodged and waved her hand: "I don't eat mutton!"

"You don't like it?" Yan Cheng was a little surprised. He just wanted mutton to replenish his body, so he asked the best restaurant in Beijing to send mutton hotpot, but he didn't know that Zhuang Wan didn't eat mutton.

"If I had known better, I wouldn't have wanted this mutton."

Zhuang Wan said: "It's okay! It'll be fine if I don't eat meat."

Yan Cheng blamed himself: "I didn't think well, so I should ask them to send someone else."

As he was about to stand up, Zhuang Wan quickly stopped him: "No need to bother, I'll eat, I'll just eat."

She picked up the meat in the bowl and put it into her mouth. It was tender and refreshing, with no smell at all. Doesn't this ancient mutton have a strange smell? Or is it processed well?

"Yeah! It's delicious!" She picked out another piece from the pot and stuffed it into her mouth.

"Hi~ so hot!"

Yan Cheng looked at her and couldn't laugh or cry, but it could be seen that she was not forced to eat it.

"As long as you like it." He sat down, put a piece of meat into the pot, and asked casually: "Do you know where this hot pot comes from?"

Zhuang Wan shook her head.

"It comes from a kind of punishment in ancient times." Yan Cheng wrote lightly: "It's called the punishment of soup and wok."

Zhuang Wan, who was not good at history, asked: "What kind of punishment?"

Yan Cheng smiled: "It's better that you don't know, just eat it quickly!"

Zhuang Wan didn't ask much, but she suddenly remembered where she had seen this "Soup Wok Punishment".

That's right! This is the plot in the book. After Yan Cheng became a black man, he once executed the soup wok punishment on the prisoners, which is to put the people into a big pot and cook them...

Thinking of this, she felt her stomach churning. She looked up at Yan Cheng's harmless face. There was no way he could be such a cruel and vicious person.

"What's wrong with you?" Yan Cheng asked with concern: "You look so ugly, but you don't feel good after eating this mutton?"

"Maybe!" Zhuang Wan said, "I won't eat it."

"Okay! I won't eat anymore." Yan Cheng said quickly, "I'll make you something else to eat later."

Zhuang Wan calmed down for a while, then raised her head and asked him: "What do you think of the punishment of soup wok?"

Yan Cheng said: "This punishment was too cruel and was abolished by the previous dynasty."

Zhuang Wan continued to ask: "Then do you think those heinous people should use this punishment?"

Yan Chengxiao asked, "Why are you suddenly interested in these things? In a daughter's house, these bloody things should be kept as far away as possible."

Zhuang Wan ignored it and asked, "You haven't answered my question yet."

Yan Cheng: "..."

Zhuang Wan stared at him closely, she wanted to know if he was a cruel person deep down.

Yan Cheng was silent for a moment, somewhat helpless, and replied seriously:

"In my opinion, even those who deserved to commit crimes should not be subjected to this torture. The previous monarch was able to abolish this punishment, which was actually a benevolent government."

Zhuang Wan breathed a sigh of relief, "I think so too."

She hoped that Yan Cheng would remember what he said today and be as kind-hearted and kind as his father.

…

Mu Qiulan woke up faintly, and the two maids in the room hurried forward and said happily: "Thank God, the girl is finally awake."

Mu Qiulan slowly sat up with the help of the two people, and then got out of bed.

The maidservant asked hurriedly: "Where is the girl going? The imperial doctor said that the girl will stay in bed for a while."

How could Mu Qiulan be willing to listen? She wanted to take care of things after Mu's death. As a relative like Mu, she had to send her off well.

"Girl!" The two maids were anxious. They wanted to stop her but didn't dare, so they knelt down and said, "Girl is pregnant now. If something goes wrong, the prince will blame you. I can't bear it!"

Mu Qiulan: "..."

At this time, Xiao Jingchen happened to come into the room.

"Lan'er! You're awake! Great!"

"What are you still doing in a daze? Hurry and help the girl back to the bed and lie down."

Mu Qiulan was helped back to the bed in a daze. She raised her head and asked, "Your Majesty, my aunt..."

Xiao Jingchen said: "Don't worry, I will send her off well. But she can't be buried in a grand ceremony. Many people in the capital are watching every move of the palace, so it will cause complications and she will have to be wronged."

Mu Qiulan stood up: "Then I'll see aunt off!"

Xiao Jingchen quickly helped her sit down and took her into his arms, "It's not that I won't let you go, it's just that you are pregnant and it is inconvenient to go."

"Pregnant?" Mu Qiulan gently stroked her belly, "Is it true?"

Xiao Jingchen nodded: "The imperial doctor said it has been more than two months. Before that, you had not eaten enough in the mountains and were malnourished. Now you are suffering from pain and stagnation, which has caused the fetal image to be unstable. You need to stay in bed to rest, and you must not be sad anymore. Therefore, the funeral

At that time, you'd better not go."
