Adorable Food Goddess

Ye Jiayao was busy with wedding banquets, training classes, and taking care of Tianshang Residence. She was so busy that she became more and more energetic. Strange to say, she was not so diligent in her previous life. She could be a little lazy, but in ancient times, she has become a workaholic and lives a hard life.

Two days before the wedding banquet, she went to live in the palace with Ah Ruan.

And Xia Chunyu also took the initiative to request to stay in the palace so that he could be taken care of.

As the wedding day approached, Ah Ruan's mood hit rock bottom. Ever since the emperor granted her the marriage, she had accepted her fate. But when this day came, the reluctance, uneasiness, fear of the future, and all kinds of bad emotions that had been suppressed in her heart were like a volcano. It was like an explosion, I couldn't control it no matter what, and my whole body became irritable. Fortunately, there is a friend around her who can talk and comfort her, otherwise, she would really go crazy.

Seeing her like this, Ye Jiayao really sympathized with her and could especially understand her mood. Chun Feng was like this before they got married, and Chun Yu spent a lot of time trying to appease him. But now, all she can do is comfort her, hoping that King Yu will treat Ah Ruan well.

That night, Ye Jiayao and Ah Ruan were about to go to bed, and Concubine Shu suddenly sent someone to invite them.

Ye Jiayao thought that Concubine Shu was still worried about the wedding banquet and wanted to explain it to her, so she hurried to Ronghua Palace.

Ye Jiayao was frightened as soon as she entered Ronghua Hall.

In the courtyard, a palace maid was forced to kneel there. A eunuch held a bamboo ruler and slapped her mouth. The slap made the palace maid's face swell like a pig's head, and blood kept flowing from the corners of her mouth. She looked extremely miserable.

Not knowing what this scene had to do with Concubine Shu calling her over, Ye Jiayao felt sad and followed the palace people into the main hall.

Concubine Shu sat down solemnly, with an extremely serious expression. Upon closer inspection, Concubine Shu's bright eyes were filled with anger.

Ye Jiayao cautiously stepped forward and saluted.

Concubine Shu signaled the palace maid to show Ye Jiayao her seat, then stepped back and said, Do you know why that bitch outside was punished?

Ye Jiayao said to herself, I stayed in the imperial dining room all day and was too busy to touch the stool. How do I know why?

Concubine Shu sneered and said: I don't think you know anything about it, but this matter is related to you. I think it's better to let you know.

Ye Jiayao was in a state of confusion, trying to reflect on whether she had done anything wrong and offended Concubine Shu. Inside the palace is no better than outside, the masters here can't afford to offend them all.

Concubine Shu snorted coldly: Those insidious villains are just afraid that the world will not be in chaos. I have always been kind to others, but today I can't bear it anymore.

Ye Jiayao was so timid that she didn't dare to ask, so she could only listen silently. She has reflected on everything she said and did in the past two days, and she really can't think of anything wrong.

Concubine Shu thought to herself and said: They thought they could curse King Yu and Princess Ah Ruan with a few bad words? What's even more hateful is that they poured dirty water on you. You were personally selected by me and the queen. Yes, I will never allow these people to deliberately slander you.

Uh...what the hell is going on? Concubine Shu, Empress Shu, can you please be more straightforward and don't let people guess, it will scare people to death.

Concubine Shu said: I am so convinced by those people that I can actually think of such a damaging move. Don't be afraid, I will never believe those lies. This bitch outside, if it weren't for Prince Yu's wedding soon, I would Gong Ding ordered him to be killed with a stick.

Ye Jiayao was speechless. Damn, what kind of nonsense is this? Making Concubine Shu so angry.

In short, treat everything you hear these days as if you haven't heard anything. You can just hold the wedding banquet in peace and mind. I will only make the decision for you. Concubine Shu said.

Ye Jiayao smiled dryly, this was too baffling.

What was even more inexplicable was that Concubine Shu just let her go.

However, he sent his nanny to send her back. Ye Jiayao thought that Concubine Shu asked her confidant to send her off, and she must have asked this confidant to pass on the message, but she really didn't want to pay attention to the disputes and secret fights in the palace. She is here to work, and she will leave after the work is done. No matter what you say, if you don't hear it, just pretend you don't know...

Therefore, Ye Jiayao didn't say anything along the way. The nanny hesitated several times and finally couldn't bear it anymore and said: Madam, although the imperial concubine has told me not to talk too much, I still feel that there are some things that I should tell my wife. Well, although the ultimate purpose of this incident is to target the imperial concubine, it is to use her against her. There is no guarantee that these people also harbor hatred for Mrs. Xia.

Ye Jiayao listened silently.

The thing is like this, that talkative palace maid is from Concubine Mei's Palace. Today someone heard her criticizing Madam, saying that Madam is an unlucky person. When the Queen Mother held a birthday banquet at the beginning of the year, someone suggested that you should do it. , but some people said that you had a bad life and no heirs, so you were not allowed to enter the palace even at the Queen Mother’s birthday banquet. They also said that you organized Princess Liuli’s wedding banquet. Not long after, Liuli had a miscarriage, and now Ah Ruan The princess’s wedding banquet has been asked to be hosted by you again, so maybe Princess Ah Ruan won’t be able to give birth to a son either…”

The grandma said softly.

Ye Jiayao really wanted to laugh three times. What kind of logic is this? She has hosted many weddings and birthday banquets. Liuli's miscarriage was her own fault, but she was blamed. The thinking of these people is really powerful and makes people speechless.

The mammy observed Ye Jiayao's face and continued: When the imperial concubine knew this, she was so angry that she immediately summoned the palace maid for interrogation and found out the source of the rumor...

Ye Jiayao frowned and was really curious as to who made this rumor.

But Mammy began to lie about this rumor: If someone hadn't instigated this kind of rumor, these palace ladies wouldn't dare to tell it even if they had ten guts. That's why the imperial concubine is so angry. Some people resent King Yu's favor and marry Princess Ah Ruan. He deliberately slandered me, but in order to take the overall situation into consideration, the imperial concubine could not go into details and could only kill the chicken to scare the monkeys.

Ye Jiayao is also a person with a clear mind. How could she not hear the hint in her mother's words? In this palace, who hates Prince Yu the most, besides the people from the prince's side? Concubine Shu asked her nanny to tell her these words. Was this a hint to her that the people on the prince's side were also dissatisfied with her?

But what if you are dissatisfied? Even if it was really someone from the prince's side who said it, it would not be the prince's intention or the queen's intention. In this world, there is really no one other than Liuli who is most likely to spread rumors about her.

She didn't want to pursue the truth, and there was no point in pursuing it. If she took it seriously, she would be in someone else's game. Ye Jiayao smiled and said, Thank you so much, mama, for telling me this. Please tell your concubine, thank you for your protection.

Mammy seemed very satisfied with her reaction: I will tell the lady's true words to you.

When she returned to her residence, Ah Ruan was still awake and waiting for her.

Sister Yaoyao, what does the imperial concubine want from you? Ah Ruan asked with concern. After all, it was so late and he sent someone to tell you.

Ye Jiayao smiled and said, It's nothing. The imperial concubine is still a little worried about tomorrow's wedding banquet. Send me a message to ask.

Ah Ruan was dubious: Is it really just like this?

Ye Jiayao chuckled: Otherwise, what else can happen? It won't be late at night. You want to chat with me!

Early the next morning, Chunyu sent someone to call Ye Jiayao.

When they met, he asked anxiously: Last night, Concubine Shu came to see you?

Ye Jiayao smiled helplessly: You are so well-informed!

Xia Chunyu frowned: I sent someone to keep an eye on this place. I have control over your every move.

He knew more than that. He heard that Concubine Shu was very angry last night and went to the emperor to cry and complain. The emperor was also in a bad mood, but he didn't know what the specific matter was.

Ye Jiayao curled her lips and said disapprovingly: It's not a big deal. Someone used me to curse Ah Ruan.

Xia Chunyu was shocked: Curse Ah Ruan in your name? This is too funny.

Ye Jiayao sneered: What they said is that I have a nose and eyes. They said that I am an unlucky person who is destined to have no heirs. I organized Liuli's wedding banquet, but Liuli had a miscarriage. Now I have to hold a wedding banquet for Ah Ruan again, and then , you can think about it yourself...

Xia Chunyu's head was stabbed by something. Only he, his mother, and Li Yuyi knew about Yaoyao's difficulty in conceiving. Of course Liuli also knew about it. Some people used this as an excuse to slander Yaoyao. Could it be that someone Did you spread the word? Doctor Li or Liuli?

It's really nonsense, Yaoyao, don't take these nonsense to heart. Xia Chunyu comforted her.

Ye Jiayao sneered and said, Of course I won't take it to heart, but it is unavoidable that I am a little worried. The person who said this is really vicious. If Ruan can't give birth to a little prince in the future, it will be all my fault. .”

Ignore them. If this wasn't the palace, I would have caught this person out and slapped her in the mouth. Xia Chunyu said angrily.

You don't need to slap. Last night, Concubine Shu slapped the gossiping palace maid into a pig's head. After the wedding banquet, I don't know how Concubine Shu will punish that person. Ye Jiayao said sarcastically.

Xia Chunyu knew in his heart that the palace maid was just a scapegoat. The palace rules were strict and criticizing the master was a capital offense. Who would dare to say such things without someone's instructions? It's a pity that he can't go into details.

Okay, it's okay. Go back quickly. You are a guard beside the emperor. You cannot leave your post without permission. I have to go to the royal kitchen. There is a tough battle to fight today! Ye Jiayao smiled and urged him to go back.

Xia Chunyu wanted to hug her and give her some comfort and encouragement, but he didn't dare to be presumptuous, so he could only say with a smile: After today's work, we can go home, and I will comfort you when we get home.

What kind of punishment or comfort? They all refer to the same thing in his mouth. She has experienced it countless times. She couldn't help but blush and spat softly: Who wants your comfort? Why don't you go back quickly.

Xia Chunyu saw her blushing with embarrassment and her charming look, and couldn't help but laugh: I must comfort you. You have worked so hard, so I'm leaving...

Fortunately, he ran fast, otherwise Ye Jiayao's knife would have flown past. This guy is really annoying! Ye Jiayao couldn't help lowering her eyebrows and curling the corners of her lips, and the unhappiness from last night disappeared.
