The Empress of the Qing Dynasty is from the Northeast

Chapter 28 Wang 8 looks at mung beans

Yinzhen opened the letter from his wife first. The letter was very brief. It first gave a brief introduction to the situation in the mansion, and then what happened on the day of the Golden Festival.

Yinzhen frowned. He never looked down on women, especially the ladies in the palace.

Next came Changning's letter.

Yinzhen finished reading with a smile. Looking at the comfort and happiness revealed between the lines, Yinzhen felt that the fatigue from traveling for days was much relieved.

"Su Peisheng, tonight we'll have grilled crucian carp with green onions and braised chicken in abalone sauce. Oh, and stewed chicken with soft-shelled turtle." Yinzhen ordered with a smile.

Su Peisheng hurriedly lowered his head and responded.

Look, as soon as the letter from Concubine Fucha arrived, the prince was in the mood to order food.

Su Peisheng was also very happy. Although he didn't have to sleep in the open air during the journey, his appetite had not improved due to the long journey.

Fortunately, Master Fu Cha brought a box of pomegranates, which were sour and sweet. I ate quite a few of them and also gave two to the Thirteenth Master.

Thanks to Changning's letter, Yinzhen's appetite improved a lot tonight, especially when he followed Changning's way of eating and cooked chicken braised in abalone sauce with rice, which was really delicious.

When Yinzhen told Su Peisheng to mix the chicken into the rice, Su Peisheng's eyes almost fell out.

After eating and drinking, Yinzhen began to think about Changning's request.

It’s not that she wants a pet, but a cat or a dog would easily bump into people, and she is in a delicate body now and cannot stand any collisions.

Yinzhen thought that after Changning gave birth to a child, he would choose a docile one for her.

However, there was still a hint of contempt in my heart. If you want to keep a pet, you have to keep a dog. It is majestic and powerful, can hunt, and can also guard the house and protect the owner.

It turns out that he was brought up in pampered condition.

Changning didn't know what Yinzhen was thinking. She was making a request to Yuxia.

"If you want something this big, put more cotton in it, make it fluffier, and use softer fabric so you can sink in when you lean on it."

Changning raised his arms, forming a big circle, and was asking Yuxia to make a big pillow for him.

After three months, Changning felt that his body was getting heavier and his waist was getting more painful. He felt uncomfortable sitting or lying down and just wanted to lean on a big soft cushion.

It just so happened that Yuxia was the maid specially picked by Yinzhen who was the best at embroidery and needlework. If she was given the power to make four or five of these pillows in two or three days.

After talking about the appearance, Changning began to choose the pattern.

The colors of Cloud Water Blue and Clear Mountain can be used by the Fourth Master. If you ride in a carriage again in the future, you will feel much more comfortable leaning on this.

Lilac and moss colors can be made for Wanhe. She is pregnant and will probably need them.

As for Changning himself, he chose yellow, yellow leaves, and pine flowers. In autumn, yellow is more suitable for the scene, and in winter, yellow looks warm.

"The patterns on it are embroidered with butterflies, osmanthus, pine and cypress and the like."

After finalizing the style, Yuxia patted her chest and promised to complete her master's requirements.

As they were talking, Nanny Zhang brought another bowl of sweet soup.

Chang Ning was somewhat helpless. "Madam Zhang, I just finished a bowl of chicken wonton soup, and two hours ago I also had pear soup and chestnut cake."

"Master needs to eat small meals frequently now. This bowl is very small and won't take up too much space in your stomach after you drink it."

"Okay." Changning took the bowl honestly. It wasn't much indeed. He could finish it with about seven or eight spoons.

After using Changning, he went to the corridor to see the soft-shelled turtles.

Xiao Kangzi was very good at tidying up. He put some green water plants and a few red carps in the large blue and white porcelain water tank. The water was the same as that in the pond, which was clear. He put a few big stones in it. The turtle lay on the stones to bask in the sun.

"Give him a name. I don't know if this turtle is male or female."

The corners of Zhang Ma's mouth twitched, but she still answered patiently, "I don't know whether he is male or female. Can Xiao Kangzi tell?"

"My Lord, this should be a male."

"It's a male, so let's call him Green Bean."

Aunt Zhang was very supportive. "Mung beans? Where did they come from?"

Chang Ning smiled slyly, "The turtle and the mung bean are attracted to each other."

When Yinzhen received Changning's letter about naming the turtle again, he was amused by this proverb.

Unexpectedly, when I was away, Yaoxian was living a very happy life.

The turtle was named Green Bean, which is so cute.

As he laughed, Yinzhen felt something was not right.

The turtle looked at the mung bean and they fell in love.

You're not talking about the two of us, right?

Things weren't going very smoothly on Yinzhen's side either.

After arriving in the south, he wanted to investigate the imperial examination cheating case, but the local officials refused to cooperate and knew nothing about anything. In the past few days, they just entertained the two royal princes.

There is an endless supply of delicious food, fine wine and beautiful women, but when it comes to student riots, they keep their mouths shut.

Yinzhen had a headache. He was a straightforward person, but he also knew that if the water was too clear, there would be no fish. He was thinking about how to get something out of those old guys.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the room, he heard a melodious pipa sound. If a man had some leisure time, he could appreciate it. However, Yinzhen didn't like these tricks, and he became even more annoyed because he had something on his mind.

"Su Peisheng, you are doing your job better and better."

Su Peisheng looked at Yinzhen's face, which was already full of frost. He was cursing his father in his heart, wondering who was the blind guy who had implicated your Grandpa Su.

"Hurry up and solve it!" Following Yinzhen's loud shout, Su Peisheng hurriedly bent down and went out.

Su Peisheng, accompanied by his disciple Wang Quan, and followed by seven or eight young eunuchs, followed the sound. On the small path next to the courtyard where the Fourth Master lived, there was a woman wearing Hanfu, with a few small braids and a hibiscus flower inserted in her hair. She was extremely soft and beautiful.

The woman played the pipa and danced, looking like a fairy flying away in the moonlight. Unfortunately, she didn't wait for the King to show interest in her, but waited for the expressionless Su Peisheng.

"Come here, this woman sneaked into the Fourth Prince's mansion late at night with ill intentions, drag her out immediately."

Several young eunuchs rushed forward and subdued the woman in no time.

The woman cried and begged, "Father-in-law, what have I done wrong? I have no ill intentions. Please don't chase me away."

Su Peisheng sneered, "Don't chase you away. You should know that the crime of attempting to assassinate the emperor is enough to kill all your clans. The Fourth Prince is kind-hearted, but he wants you to go home. If you don't know what's good for you, I'll beat you to death on the spot!"

Su Peisheng spoke the last sentence with great force, enunciating each word with great force. In the dark night, the sinister voice made the woman break out in a cold sweat, and she dared not beg for mercy anymore. She was only thrown out of the mansion by several eunuchs.

Bah, what a piece of crap.

Su Peisheng rolled his eyes at her. How could this pretty girl compare to the fairy-like beauty of Master Fu Cha?
