[Qing] Empress Xiao Chengren Reborn

Zhu Jin was taken aback, and looked up at Xuan Ye, isn't he angry?

It's better for Ruqing to react faster, as soon as Xuan Ye came over, she shared a portion and brought it to Xuan Ye. As soon as Xuan Ye finished speaking, she received the "little French fries" in her hand, Ru Qing Still secretly rejoicing, luckily the master of the imperial dining room made a lot, otherwise it would only be eaten by the master and the emperor would have nothing to eat, what would it look like?

Xuan Ye had never eaten anything like this, and he rarely ate deep-fried food. He tasted a few, and thought it was like fried potatoes. The taste was very fresh. He also dipped in the sauce, and he also learned to dip in the sauce. After tasting it in his mouth, he realized that the sauce she dipped in was fresh tomato juice.

"There has never been such food in the palace, so it must be from outside the palace?"

When Xuan Ye was the prince, the nurses and eunuchs did not dare to feed him indiscriminately. Two meals a day were arranged, and he was never full. According to the rules, it is said that the princes and elder brothers must not be hungry when they are young, and they cannot be too full, even the princess princesses are like this. If it weren't for Er Niang who would reward him with some dishes from time to time, he would definitely be like a big brother. In that way, I am often too hungry to fall asleep at night.

Later he ascended the throne and became the emperor, and the entire imperial dining room served his meals, but he didn't think it was much better than in elder brother's place. Bowls, sometimes a plate of crystal elbows are steamed like gruel in the mouth, with no taste at all, let alone whether it is delicious or not.

But the emperor's grandmother knew his hardships, and often gave him some dishes from her own dishes. The Compassionate Ning Palace had its own dining room, and the food it made was naturally better than the imperial dining room. It's a pity that the emperor's grandmother was old. People like to eat rotten stewed meat, and the imperial grandmother's taste is very strong, which is completely different from his light taste, so he doesn't think the meals in the dining room of the Compassionate Ning Palace are delicious, and he is willing to eat Compassionate Ning The things sent by the palace are just to fill the stomach.

Now that he ate this, it whetted his appetite, and he was still a little unsatisfied after eating a whole plate.

"There is no such thing outside the palace. This is what the concubine came up with. It's just a thing to eat. Who would eat this seriously?"

Zhu Jin was surprised that Xuan Ye had finished eating a plate of "little French fries", and she didn't go out of her way to ask him why he was angry just now, but now he turned around and stopped being angry. Zhu Jin looked at Xuan Ye's unfinished expression, and didn't plan to give him any more food. At this time, Xiao Zhuang sent Aunt Su Ma to bring warm wine to drive the cold, and also sent some big steamed crabs. Zhu Jin hurriedly put down the "little French fries" and went to meet Lagu Su Ma.

"The empress dowager heard that the emperor was wrestling with the masters in the school field this afternoon, and it was raining, so she specially asked me to bring over two pots of warm wine to keep out the cold. This warm wine is the best for dispelling dampness. It works better than that ginger soup!"

Aunt Su Ma saw that Xuanye's complexion was rosy, and she was in good spirits. She had already changed into dry clothes and her hair was dry, so she felt relieved, and she looked at Zhujin with admiration in her eyes. , then smiled again, "The dining room prepared ten crabs for the empress dowager for lunch today, thinking that the imperial dining room might not have crabs yet, the empress dowager left five of the largest ones for the emperor, and they were all crabs. As for the ones with round navels, I also ordered me to send them here at the moment. The empress dowager said that after drinking wine and eating some crabs, you won’t be afraid of the coldness of the crabs. Now it’s autumn, and the empress dowager said let the emperor taste You are so fresh, there are still many days to go back and eat!"

La Aunt Su Ma laughed and said a few more words, then she left and wanted to go back to the Palace of Compassion. Both Xuan Ye and Zhu Jin tried to persuade her to stay but they couldn't. La Aunt Su Ma said that the Empress Dowager was still waiting for her to return to her life However, there were still some things she wanted to do in the Compassionate Ning Palace, Xuan Ye saw that she refused to stay, so he let her go.

Zhujin went to send Aunt Su Ma back, and when she heard Xuanye ordering Ruqing to bring out two crabs and share them with her, she hurriedly smiled and said: "Your Majesty, don't be busy, my concubine can't eat much, just take one." Just come and eat the crab roe with your concubine."

Zhujin was full after eating "small French fries", and she couldn't eat the crab, but one crab roe was enough. Ruqing made crab roe for Ruqing and put them on the plate, and then poured them into the jade cup. After the warm wine came, Zhujin began to eat like this. The crab was probably steamed with sweet-scented osmanthus, so in the mouth full of crab fragrance, even the nose was filled with the aroma of sweet-scented osmanthus.

Xuanye was patiently sharing the crabs with eight pieces of crabs. He saw the pearls and brocades walking back and forth in the room to digest the food. He looked at it for a long time, then suddenly remembered something, and asked: "When I came in, I saw people from the House of Internal Affairs in the main hall. People coming and going are changing the furnishings, don’t you like the original ones?”

When he came in, he wanted to ask, but after taking a bath, he talked about other things, ate something, and Lagu Su Ma came over, so he couldn't find a chance to ask Zhujin. , then asked out.

Zhu Jin clicked her tongue, pursed her lips and said with a smile: "The emperor really wants to know?"

Before Xuanye could answer, she turned to Ruqing and asked, "Isn't it tidied up?"

It must have been more than an hour since they left at noon, no matter what?The people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs moved really slowly, but Xuan Ye actually saw them changing one or two tables and chairs.

Ruqing replied: "Master, the cleaning has been done a long time ago, and all the things have been replaced. It's the smell, it's not easy to get rid of, but it took a long time before the slaves went to take a look. It's already gone. It's done."

Ruqing's answer made Xuan Ye even more curious: "What's the matter? Tell me about it."

It's not that Zhujin doesn't want to talk about it, but she just looked at Xuan Ye's eating happily, and she really didn't want to disturb his interest because of this matter: "It's not that ministers and concubines can't tell the emperor about it, but if the emperor likes to eat This crab, how about waiting for the emperor to finish eating, and then the concubine will talk to the emperor?"

"Well, that's fine,"

Xuan Ye is not stupid, he expected that there must be a reason for Zhu Jin's refusal to say anything, and he also guessed that this matter would probably affect his appetite, so he didn't ask, and just ate the few crabs slowly After cleaning her hands, she raised her eyebrows and looked at Zhu Jin, "I finished eating, can I talk? If you don't tell me, it's the same if I ask Mingzhu."

Nalan Mingzhu is currently in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and Zhu Jin asked people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs to change the furnishings, Nalan Mingzhu must know the reason.

Zhu Jin sighed, and said: "Your Majesty doesn't need to ask Ming Zhu, it's enough for the concubine to tell the Emperor."

Without organizing words, Zhu Jin told the story from the beginning to the end. After finishing speaking, she blinked at Xuan Ye and asked, "Mr. Niu Hulu walked too fast, and the concubine didn't care when she came." As for the question, she didn't say it herself, now that the emperor is here, it's the same when the concubine asks the emperor, did the emperor promise her to come later to pay her respects after Mrs. Niu Hulu went to bed yesterday?"

When Xuanye heard Zhujin talk about the accident, his face sank like water, and he could see that he was very unhappy. Hearing Zhujin's question, he suddenly curled his lips and said with a half-smile: "If I said yes ?”

Seeing Zhu Jin was taken aback for a moment, then a bit of embarrassment appeared on his face, Xuan Ye turned cold again before waiting for her answer, "I never promised her such a thing."

After a pause, he said again: "When you married me, you would go to pay respects on the second morning according to the time. She is just a concubine, so why not come to greet you? If I were you, This time I will never let it go lightly, if she dares to do this again next time, you can just beat the maid next to her."

Zhu Jin pursed her lips and did not answer Xuan Ye's words. Xuan Ye saw the little man in front of him with his head slightly lowered, but he couldn't see his expression. After thinking for a while, he understood her thoughts like a soul: "You are worried about Ye Bilong and Ao bye?"

Zhu Jin still didn't speak, just raised her head and nodded slightly to Xuan Ye. Before Xuan Ye took over the government, it's better not to startle the snake and annoy Oboi. There are ways to make Niu Hulu unhappy, so why bother What about confronting her head-on?It's just that she didn't plan to tell Xuan Ye what she thought, as long as Xuan Ye could guess it, she wouldn't take the initiative to explain it if she couldn't.

Unexpectedly, when Xuan Ye saw her nodding her head, she was inexplicably ecstatic, feeling that Zhu Jin was making such compromises just for his sake, and felt more and more in her heart that she was so caring and caring, that she could be so considerate of his current situation... until now Only then did he feel that the emperor's grandmother had really found the right person for him, Zhu Jin really stood in his position and thought of him wholeheartedly!

"The Niu Hulu clan is indeed a bit arrogant. Before I took over the government, I'm afraid I couldn't neglect her. I can't neglect her until Obai is removed. You just need to understand my difficulties."

After Xuanye was overjoyed, he pondered for a long time before deciding to confess to Zhujin, "You are my confidant, and I will not hide it from you. As long as the evidence is convincing, if she is wrong, you just punish her. But I will still pamper her, as long as you understand it in your heart. In addition, you did a good job with Ma Jia's matter."

Xuanye added a little smile at the end of his speech. He was still very interested in Zhujin's method of regulating people. He didn't want the Pearl Brocade to suffer, it's rare that the Pearl Brocade could have both, and he was very satisfied that it could stand up, give Niu Hulu a warning, and teach Ma Jia the rules in a logical way.

Zhu Jin nodded to show that she understood, but just as she was about to speak, Liang Jiugong came in from the outside, and kowtowed to report: "Your Majesty, the four assistant ministers are asking to see the Emperor, and they are waiting for the Emperor to pass by in the Hall of Preservation. On the day of going to Nanyuan Xingwei, I want to report to the emperor face to face."

Xuan Ye became happy when he heard that, stood up and went out: "The date has been agreed so quickly? Let's go back to the Palace of Preservation and Harmony with me!"

After walking a few steps, thinking of Zhujin, he turned his head and smiled at her, "I have to leave beforehand, and I will talk to you in the evening!"
