Chapter 820: Hot Pot
The corners of Hui Guifei's eyes moved slightly, her face was flushed, it was clear that her son was going to marry, and she was still embarrassed by the emperor's gentle rubbing, and she glanced at the clear soup and side dish white rice porridge she was using just now, and said: "People are shouting to lose weight every day, and Your Majesty is hooking the concubine to gain weight." No matter what, whoever makes the concubines greedy, and now they are indeed shocked. ”
The beauty is shy, beautiful like the morning glow, moving but not pretentious.
In a few words, the depression in the emperor's heart was swept away.
While speaking, a palace maid had already quietly removed the light meal from the table and brought in a towering copper stove hot pot.
Wild mountain mushrooms and large bones are boiled into a thick soup, which is boiled by the red charcoal at the bottom of the pot, and the aroma is overflowing.
Eliminating the palace maid cloth dishes, the emperor personally picked up a few pieces of tender mutton with great interest and placed them in the pot.
The boiling water boils, and the mutton is cut into a very thin slice, but the heart counts lightly three or five times, it is cooked to just right, dipped in mahjong juice, chewed in one bite, the aroma of sesame seeds and the tenderness of mutton are filled with unparalleled deliciousness in the mouth.
Squinting his eyes and taking the first bite, the emperor was full of interest, "I haven't drunk with you for a long time, and Zuo will open the hot pot tonight, how can there be no wine." ”
Concubine Hui Guifei did not shirk it, and immediately nodded, "Okay, Your Majesty and the concubine have a good heart again, the concubine just wanted to propose, but His Majesty preemptively said it." I don't know what kind of wine Your Majesty wants to drink, the concubine here, there is a good plum wine. ”
The green plum wine is sweet and sour, and it is the favorite wine of the palace concubines.
The emperor shook his head, waved his hand and said: "The green plum wine is bland, it's boring to drink, you can drink it anyway, why don't you drink it with me?" ”
When Concubine Hui heard this, she immediately said: "To be a dead Canglan person, you can't measure your own strength! Your Majesty is a true dragon son of heaven, and you have the blessing of heaven and man, how can they be delusional!" After a sentence of indignation, she exhaled a sigh, but changed the topic.
"The concubine heard that His Majesty has treasured the flower carving for almost 20 years, and today I don't know if there is such a blessing. As he spoke, his head was slightly offset, his eyes were flickering, and he was looking forward to it, like a girl waiting to be released.
When the emperor heard this, and saw her like this, he raised his head and laughed, "Quasi!"
The words fell, and immediately there was a small chamberlain who ran all the way to retrieve the flower carving that was treasured by the emperor, and it was only a few teas before and after.
The wine is cold and easy to hurt the internal organs, take a small stove, put it on it, and keep it warm over a slow fire.
Pushing the cup and changing the lamp, after three rounds of wine, the emperor's eyes narrowed slightly, as if unintentionally, and looked at Hui Guifei, "How did you suddenly discover the bad intentions of the Canglan people today......?
Raising a glass and drinking the wine, the emperor had the most words, and he hated so much that he couldn't say anything.
Concubine Hui exclaimed in her heart: It's coming!
Sure enough, His Majesty's trip was not simply to drink wine and eat meat with her to suppress the shock.
The heart tightened, and he took a deep breath quietly, and then when the wine cup left his lips, he spit out, under the table, the handkerchief was held in the palm of his hand, and Concubine Hui was afraid, and said: "Where can the concubine notice this, it was Gu Yuqing who suddenly said, Han Chaoen's heart attack, there is something outside the palace that a doctor can look at, let the Ninth Highness go down and please, the concubine heard her voice a little strange, so she paid special attention to it." ”
His Royal Highness the Ninth raised his feet and went out, and the palace maid in front of the concubine also went out, but he couldn't walk halfway through the corridor before he was stopped by Gu Yuqing's auspicious person. ”
Ji Xiang said to His Royal Highness Jiu, Gu Yuqing had instructed before that if the banquet went on normally, if something happened halfway and His Royal Highness Nine walked out of the palace, she would inform His Highness Nine that Gu Yuqing suspected that Han Chaoen was colluding with the Canglan people and that His Majesty might be in danger, and asked His Highness Jiu to quickly find the commander of the forbidden army. ”
"I don't know if His Royal Highness Nine has found the concubine of the commander of the forbidden army, but when the palace maid in front of the concubine told the concubine in her ear that the words of Jixiang and His Royal Highness the Ninth were whispered, the concubine was so frightened that she almost screamed out. ”
"It was Gu Yuqing who reminded the concubines to find the queen mother, because the little prince of the Pingxi palace was also at the queen mother, and the concubines went over with the princess of the Pingxi palace. When leaving, one of the envoys of Canglan also used the excuse that he also wanted to kowtow to the Queen Mother, so he had to follow him. ”
"The concubine is even more sure that there is a ghost, Your Majesty, the concubine does not dare to trespass, what can be done is to protect the safety of the Queen Mother for Your Majesty, fortunately, there is a martial arts mother in front of the Queen Mother, and we will be killed with a knife, and we will hide in the secret room. ”
"I also went in time, the door of the secret room was closed, and across the wall, I heard the sound of ping-pong outside, thinking that it was the Canglan people who came to hold the Queen Mother hostage, but they found that the people went to the empty house and got angry!"
Without waiting for the emperor to ask one by one, Concubine Hui Guifei explained the whole thing and told her everything.
What she said was to cover up the surname of the traveling doctor outside the palace mentioned by Gu Yuqing, lest she be as shrewd as the emperor, and at once she would guess Wei Qi, who was particularly outstanding when she was sticking to the city gate today, and cause trouble to Yu'er.
The rest is true, so what is said is sincere.
When Concubine Hui said, the emperor's scrutinizing gaze never left her cheeks, her expression was inch-by-inch, and the emperor could see it through, and when she finished speaking, the emperor's fox-like eyes were put away, and he smiled gently, "It's really hard for you today." ”
Concubine Hui shook her head, "The concubine is still young, it doesn't matter, it's just that the Queen Mother is old, and the underground secret passage has not been used for a long time, it is cold and damp, Your Majesty should really send a proper person to take a good rest." At that time, the queen mother sneezed one after another, and the concubines were terrified when they heard it, afraid that her old man would fall ill again. ”
"What did the imperial doctor say?" mentioned the Queen Mother, and the emperor's face showed real worry.
Concubine Hui breathed a sigh of relief, "The imperial doctor said that it was just a little cold, and it would not be in the way, just take a few patches of medicine." ”
The emperor's expression was relaxed, his eyes moved slightly in his lowered eyes, and the wine cup in his hand was rubbed by his thumb and turned around a few times, he was silent for a moment, and then said: "Do you not realize it, Ke'er's performance today is really unexpected?"
Concubine Hui's heart froze, and the topic finally came to this point.
With a sigh of relief, Concubine Hui said: "Accident, the concubines were dumbfounded at the time, the kung fu of His Royal Highness Jiu, as far as the concubines knew, was just a few strokes of the three-legged cat, but I didn't expect that his light skills were so good, and the flying knives were also good, so that the concubines remembered the youngest daughter-in-law of the Qibei Gusu family that they had seen when they were not out of the cabinet. ”
Hearing Concubine Hui mention the Qi Beigu Su family, the emperor couldn't help frowning.
He originally thought that Concubine Hui would talk about Gu Zhen!
