"Uh ~ I've been busy recently." Ling Yu would never admit that he didn't dare to come alone. Yes, definitely not.
" These are all the dishes you used to like. Try them and see if my cooking skills have deteriorated." Zhao Jifeng didn't dwell on this topic.
Of course, she knew the reason, but she had never blamed Lingyu because she didn't dare to ask for more.
"What? The Empress Dowager made these herself?”In contrast, Gongsun Liji was very shocked. It was shocking that Zhao Ji, the noblest person in the world, would cook personally.
" What's wrong? Is it strange?" Zhao Ji smiled disapprovingly.
" You should know that Ying Zheng had been a hostage in the State of Zhao for a long time. At that time, the Great Qin Empire was not as powerful as it is now." Ling Yu did not say much, but this simple sentence was enough to let Gongsun Liji understand the hardships.
That's right. Back then, Great Qin was not as feared as it was now. Therefore, Ying Zheng and Lady Zhao were bullied and humiliated in the State of Zhao during that time. One should not forget that the War God Bai Qi had killed 400,000 soldiers of the State of Zhao.
This hatred was simply too great, so the people of the State of Zhao vented all their hatred on Ying Zheng and the others. Their lives were difficult, and during this period of time, Lady Zhao had been taking care of and protecting Ying Zheng, relying on him for survival. The relationship between mother and son was too deep.
It wasn't until Ling Yu's arrival that everything gradually turned for the better.
Therefore, cooking was nothing. In this world, Zhao Ji was simply the model of a mother. At that time, her hands were not as delicate as they were now. Instead, they were full of blisters and calluses. Her skin was not as smooth and smooth as it was now.
It was only later on that Ling Yu used the power of the horse talisman and dog talisman to improve it. Of course, this was also because Zhao Ji's foundation was quite strong, but because her life was too poor.
After so many years, Ying Zheng naturally knew what his mother was thinking, but why did he acquiesce to it? Other than the fact that Lady Zhao was a pitiful woman, it was mostly because of Ying Zheng's respect and love for her, and he hoped that his great and loving mother would be happy.
Of course, it was still impossible for him to help his mother personally, and that was Ling Yu. If it were anyone else, Ying Zheng would definitely kill him at the first possible moment.
Therefore, this last sentence was already Ying Zheng's bottom line. He could accept it, but it did not mean that he would personally go and matchmake them.
There's a saying that goes,'You treat me as your brother, and I become your father'.
" Alright, let's not talk about these unhappy things anymore. It's been a long time since I last cooked, and I wonder if my cooking skills have deteriorated." Ever since she returned to Great Qin, Zhao Ji rarely cooked, not because there was someone waiting on her, but because the person who was worthy of her cooking rarely came.
In fact, Zhao Ji did not think that those dark times were a stain on her life.
On the contrary, she was glad that she met Lingyu there. That was the only warmth in her darkness. At that time, they lived together every day. Life might not be good, but every day was very happy.
Unlike now, she had everything material, but her heart was always empty. She was not as happy as before.
" It's so delicious. It's as good as the chefs outside." Gongsun Liji took a bite. Her praise came from the bottom of her heart. She was a little envious.
As a girl, she didn't even know what the kitchen looked like. Instead, she was more skilled at brandishing knives and swords. For a moment, she felt a little embarrassed and stole a glance at Ling Yu.
" Mm, it's indeed very good. It still tastes the same." Ling Yu nodded in agreement.
" Hehe, that's good." At this moment, Concubine Zhao smiled like a child. Sometimes, happiness was so simple. A look, a word, and an affirmation.
" Oh right, can you bring me along when you go to Han Country?" Not long after, Zhao Ji looked at Ling Yu expectantly.
" Nonsense!" Ling Yu immediately rejected without thinking. How could Ying Zheng let his mother go to such a dangerous place?
" But, but I'm bored. I'm going to rot from staying in the palace all day." Zhao Ji pouted her small mouth, indicating that she was unhappy.
" That won't do. Besides, didn't Ying Zheng just give birth to a son? How can you be bored?" Logically speaking, he would be very happy to have a grandson.
" But..." Zhao Ji wanted to retort, but was quickly interrupted by Ling Yu.
" If you're really bored, why don't we play a game?" Ling Yuhai suddenly had an idea.
