Variety Film and Television: Starting from the Legend of Zhen Huan

During dinner, Lingrong looked at the table full of vegetarian dishes. He had no appetite. He flipped through it a few times and the number of dishes was reduced by half. Lingrong sighed slightly, "There are so few dishes today."

Bao Que ran up to comfort him and said, "Yesterday I went to the imperial dining room to get pastries and was wondering why the emperor usually gave us many gifts, so why was he neglecting us in the palace? After asking around, I found out that it was Hui Gui who suggested this to the queen. It is said that the expenses of the harem are too high, and the regular dishes in each palace must be reduced. This is also the case in the Queen's Palace. I'm going to the imperial kitchen to ask for some snacks."

When Ling Rong heard this, he perked up and asked, "Did Mr. Hui Gui take the initiative to mention it?"

"I don't know, this slave. I heard this from the maid in the Old Summer Palace during her free time." Bao Que shook his head.

Ling Rong: "Ziling, please invite Mr. Hui to come in two days. Just tell me that I brought the chessboard given by my sister. I want to play a few games with my sister. Remember to go to the imperial kitchen to get some snacks when you invite me. Yam and jujube cake will be served with it." The fragrant slices are truly a masterpiece.”

There is almost no memory of this in Yuan. Lingrong only remembered this after hearing Bao Que talk about it. The Queen was trying to set a trap for Hui Guiren. Unexpectedly, Hui Guiren jumped into the pit. The Queen took the lead. Setting an example and adding fuel to the flames behind the scenes, he just rashly reduced the regular dishes. According to Huigui's intelligence, he should not have taken this step.

After two days.

Xiao Zhuozi: "My lord, Hui Gui is here."

Ling Rong: "There is no need to report my sister when she comes in the future."

Hui Gui came over with a smile on his face, "Why did Rong'er think of playing chess with me today? You know that my chess skills are not good."

Since Ling Rong rescued Mei Zhuang who fell into the water, the relationship between the two has improved by leaps and bounds. The two have become very close when they meet. They no longer use each other's titles to call each other, but use their nicknames at home.

Secondly, Ling Rong really doesn't like the title "Rou". Does "Rou" mean that Ling Rong is supple and well-behaved? Or does the emperor think of Ling Rong when he sees her? The emperor can just say it. If people around him say it every day, it will be very alienating. , persuaded Hui Gui and Xin Changzai to call Lingrong's nickname.

Lingrong said with a smile: "Sister Mei is being self-effacing. If I say that my sister is not good at chess, then no one in the harem will dare to say that I am good at chess. I have never seen the little maid next to my sister, but I have never seen it before. newcomer?"

Meizhuang: "This is Poria. She is a new-style palace maid in the Old Summer Palace. She has always been fond of eating sour food recently. It happens that the sour plum soup made by Poria is refreshing and delicious, so naturally she will serve her. You go down first, and Caiyue can stay. .”

After all the palace maids had gone out, Lingrong reminded her softly: "Sister, you still have to be careful about what you eat."

"I've had Dr. Liu take a look. He's the new doctor in my palace. He's from my hometown. I had two acnes on my face in the past two days. He cured them for me. I'm looking at The medical skills are very good." Meizhuang didn't say much, and Lingrong naturally didn't ask too many questions.

Ling Rong took a sip of the tea and said, "Just check it, sister. This tea is made from fine fragrant tea. It becomes astringent when it gets cold. I've asked Ziling to go to the imperial kitchen to get the jujube paste and yam cake that my sister loves."

"Lingrong is really attentive, even the cakes are prepared, but I, the elder sister, come here to enjoy the snacks in my sister's palace for nothing." Then he played dozens of games with Lingrong with great interest.

"Little Master, I have put the snacks on the table first. I am afraid that today's cakes are not enough. I will go to the imperial kitchen to ask for more." Ziling put down the snacks and walked out slowly.

"How come there are not enough pastries?" Meizhuang asked doubtfully.

"Sister, I don't know. Not only have there been fewer pastries recently, but the regular dishes that are served have also been reduced by half. Most of them are vegetarian dishes. I'm okay. I don't have the appetite to eat much in the hot summer, but I'm grateful for my sister's favor. It's light, the regular dishes were just right, but now that they've been cut in half, the palace people can't get much to eat," Ling Rong complained.

"Then the other half of the regular dishes were distributed to the palace at a discount of cash." Meizhuang continued to ask.

"What is the cash that my sister said was broken? No one from the Ministry of Internal Affairs came back to report this matter. Maybe my sister remembered it wrong." Lingrong put down the chess piece and thought about it seriously.

"It's broken." Meizhuang looked very anxious. He took a sip of tea and told Lingrong the whole story one by one.

Mei Zhuang's suggestion is naturally good, but Mei Zhuang regards herself as the standard, thinking that all the nobles in the palace have the same status as her, and sets the rules according to her own status, but she does not know that Mei Zhuang's share is already the most privileged. Wow, so naive.
