The wealthy tycoon wants to be the white moonlight of the little village girl

Yiran waved her hands and said, "No need! Her Majesty has repeatedly told us that the imperial kitchen is so busy, we can just do it ourselves! Don't add any more trouble to you..."

Eunuch Lei smiled and apologized: "Hey, it's not a big deal! If other palaces can't guarantee it, can't Yuhua Palace guarantee it? Miss, please rest assured, I will definitely ask someone to stew it carefully, and there will be no mistakes!"

Seeing that the other party had misunderstood, Yi Ran hurriedly said anxiously: "Don't be polite, father-in-law, and quickly ask someone to pick a chicken for me to take away! Otherwise, the queen will blame me!"

Seeing that the other party was determined not to give him a chance to please the future empress dowager, Eunuch Lei could only sigh and said, "Well, all right! In that case, I'd better obey your order... Xiao Tongzi, go and catch a live chicken for the young lady. It must be fat and tender! I guarantee that the Third Prince will want to drink more after he finishes it. This can also be regarded as a little filial piety from our imperial kitchen to the empress..."

The young eunuch agreed and turned away.

Now everyone in the palace knows that the throne will definitely be passed on to the third prince in the future, so they all try their best to curry favor with Concubine Jia and her son. How can the imperial kitchen fall behind?

After a while, the young eunuch came over carrying a tied hen.

He said enthusiastically, "Eunuch Lei, this is the fattest and most tender Zhenyuan chicken! You can eat the meat and drink the soup. It won't matter if you add water and stew it six or seven times! The soup is still delicious, and the chicken is even more tender and not dry! The servant in charge of the live chickens and ducks said that if other palaces want them, he will not give them! Because there are only a few of them, and they need to be fed with sorghum, soybeans and sunflower seeds every day, which are extremely precious!"

Eunuch Lei smiled and took it and handed it to Yiran, saying, "Miss, did you hear that? This is the best fat chicken! We are offering it to Her Majesty as a gift from our Imperial Kitchen! Please greet Her Majesty on our behalf and tell her that everyone in the Imperial Kitchen remembers Her Majesty's kindness! If there is anything you can do with us in the future, just let us know. The Imperial Kitchen will be happy to serve Her Majesty!"

Yiran agreed with a smile, then turned around and walked away while secretly thinking in her heart: "How can I trouble you? It's nothing more than asking you for two more live chickens!"

After returning to Yuhua Palace, she handed the live chicken to Chunxin, repeated what Lei Gonggong said, and finally smiled and whispered: "Sister, our Yuhua Palace has really survived! Now the whole harem is scrambling to curry favor with us, and everyone knows that the third prince is going to be the crown prince..."

Chun Xin quickly put her finger to her lips and said "hush", signaling her not to talk nonsense, then led her to the living room and replied respectfully: "Madam, the chickens are coming."

Concubine Jia picked up a silver spoon, scooped a little of the prepared medicine powder, poured it into the water to mix it evenly, then handed it to her and said, "Mix it in the chicken feed and feed it to the cat!"

Chunxin quickly took it and said, "Yes!"

She and Yiran went to the side hall, tied one of the hen's feet with a rope, then mixed cornmeal and chopped vegetable leaves into a mixture of chicken feed, poured the prepared medicine into it, mixed well, and fed it to the chicken.

Feed it like this every day for several days.

Gradually, the hen began to become listless. First, she stopped walking around the house and lay there with her head drooped all day. Then on the tenth day, she suddenly died quietly!

After ordering people to pluck the hen and kill it, Concubine Jia found that there was no flaw. There was no sign of poisoning from the chicken meat to the chicken blood. There was only a small red dot on the chicken claw, which was difficult to find without a careful look. So Concubine Jia smiled and ordered: "Chunxin, stew this chicken well, and add some nourishing Codonopsis and Astragalus. The emperor has been working day and night recently, and he needs to replenish his qi and blood..."

Chun Xin hurriedly lowered her head and said, "Yes!"

An hour later, a pot of fragrant chicken soup was ready.

When Jia Fei opened the lid, a burst of fragrant aroma immediately hit her face. The light yellow chicken soup was also very clear and smelled very tempting!

Concubine Jia nodded with great satisfaction, then ordered someone to pack the chicken soup in a food box and follow her to the study.

At this moment, the emperor was reviewing memorials. Concubine Jia walked in with a smile and said, "Your Majesty, take a break and have a bowl of chicken soup! You must be hungry after being busy for half a day. I heard that you didn't eat well this morning. It's a good opportunity to eat something now..."

As she said this, she personally served a bowl of chicken soup and placed it on the table, smiling: "This is a live chicken that I asked the imperial kitchen to order, and then I ordered the palace maid to stew it personally. Please try it and see if it tastes good. I heard that it is Zhenyuan chicken. The chicken soup doesn't taste fishy, ​​and the meat is not dry..."

The reason why she specifically emphasized that it was a live chicken was to clear herself of suspicion. If the truth were to be revealed in the future, the responsibility would all be on the imperial kitchen and would have nothing to do with her.

The emperor put down his brush and smiled kindly, "My beloved concubine, you are so thoughtful! Okay, I will drink a bowl right away..."

As he spoke, he came over and sat down on the couch. He took the soup handed over by Concubine Jia and scooped a spoonful into his mouth. Concubine Jia looked a little nervous and asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, how is it? Is it delicious?"

The emperor nodded and praised: "It really tastes better than ordinary chicken soup!"

Concubine Jia handed the chicken soup to the emperor with her delicate hands, then smiled and said, "My kindness has not been in vain! Since Your Majesty likes it, I will have someone stew it for you every day..."

The emperor laughed and said, "Why bother with so much trouble! Just let the imperial kitchen prepare it."

Concubine Jia shook her head and said, "It's stewed in the imperial kitchen. I'm worried that they won't be as careful as the palace maids. Besides, it takes more than an hour to stew it over a slow fire with olive charcoal. The water added is not ordinary spring water, but boiled Huiquan wine. Only in this way can the meat be tender and the soup be delicious, and live up to the delicious taste of Zhenyuan Chicken!"

The chicken was provided by the imperial kitchen. The palace maids went to the imperial kitchen to get it and stewed it carefully. It had nothing to do with Concubine Jia from beginning to end!

The emperor sighed, "Alas, I am afraid that you will be tired! It is already busy enough to take care of no one, how can you have time to do these things..."

Concubine Jia smiled and said, "I am not tired! As long as the emperor likes to drink, it doesn't matter if I work harder!"

From then on, Concubine Jia began to bring a bowl of nourishing soup to the emperor every day. Sometimes it was Chinese yam black chicken soup, sometimes it was cordyceps flower old duck soup, or yuzhu lily partridge soup... all of which have the function of nourishing and moisturizing. She made different dishes every day, which touched the emperor very much! He also rewarded her with a set of jadeite and gold jewelry.

late at night.

Concubine Jia looked at the set of imperial jewelry on the table and smiled coldly, "Who cares about these? What I want is your Miao family's kingdom..."

When my son inherits the throne, won’t he be able to have as many of these things as he wants?

……

Concubine Jia waited patiently for the time when the poison "Yidianhong" would take effect, and she would send a bowl of nourishing soup to the emperor every day without fail.

She watched the emperor drink it mouthful by mouthful, and then praised his increasingly better complexion...

Because other stimulating substances were added to the soup, even though the emperor sometimes felt dizzy and weak, people around him said that his majesty looked good, which made the emperor mistakenly believe that he was tired from staying up late to review memorials, so he did not take it to heart.

Since the two princes were gone, all matters, no matter how big or small, had to be approved by him personally. He was often so busy that he didn't even have time to flip through the cards, and sometimes he just rested in Yuhua Palace.

Because he was becoming more and more dependent on Concubine Jia, and smelling the scent of incense burning in her palace, he felt that his headache was relieved a lot...

But he didn't know that the poison had already penetrated into his bones and was about to break out!
