Maybe it was because Leng Yexuan said those words to Lu Feiyan, so in the days that followed, Lu Feiyan was very honest and didn't cause trouble everywhere.

Of course, these things are all unknown to Xia Nishang. She has too many things to do now, such as the Chinese New Year's Eve palace banquet in three days.

Xia Nishang is the queen's mother, the mother of a country, although she is pregnant, but the palace banquet at the end of this year cannot be handed over to others.

What's more, this year's Xia Nishang is in the limelight. Whether it was those ministers or the people of the world, they all thought that it was because Xia Nishang went to the Lugu Temple to pray for blessings regardless of personal danger, which made the heavy rain that had been falling for more than a month stop.

For this point, Xia Nishang also contributed a lot.

However, perhaps this is also the most taboo of Leng Yexuan.

He is now in the prime of life, but he is only thirty-five years old, but everyone in and outside the palace is praising Xia Nishang, which is indeed a great threat to him.

"Niangniang, are you okay with these dishes?" Er Lan knew that this palace banquet, Xia Nishang not only had to do it, but also had to do it well. However, looking at her lower abdomen, which was gradually bulging day by day, Er Lan was still a little worried.

It was discussed with Ran Tian that Xia Nishang would hand over the work of preparing the palace banquet to them. Every day, Er Lan and Ran Tian are busy reading 'novels' ybdu, and they also have to manage the size of Qifeng Palace, which is very tiring.

However, fortunately, tomorrow is the last day of Jiajing's thirteenth year, and tomorrow night there will be today's Chinese New Year's Eve palace banquet.

"This palace believes in you, in fact, you can call the shots about these things." Xia Nishang smiled and took the paper that Er Lan handed her, but she didn't open it, just put it next to her casually.

"That's not good, where are the slaves and maids, you know a lot, so naturally you still have to make the final decision." Er Lan said prevaricatingly. Since she and Ran Tian helped Xia Nishang take over these things, big and small things, they were all handled by the two of them. However, no matter what kind of thing it is, they will bring it to Xia Nishang and wait until she decides.

"Okay, okay, this palace can't see it yet." Xia Nishang glanced at her slightly, and it was the paper in her hand that looked fine.

Looking at the paper, it is clearly organized, cold dishes, hot dishes, all classified in order, very clear and clear. Xia Nishang's lips gently raised a smile.

What she likes most about Er Lan and Ran Tian is that they do things neatly and don't drag mud and water. Moreover, there is absolutely no selfishness, neither arrogance nor rashness, and it is sincerely for Xia Nishang.

"The slave maid thought, the weather is so cold now, although there is a charcoal brazier in the main hall, but some dishes will not be delicious if they are left for a long time." Erlan stood aside and explained her plan in detail. "A few days ago, the emperor also said that the little hot pot is very good, why don't you put it up tomorrow and let those ministers taste it?"

"Well, you're thinking." Xia Nishang nodded. She had already seen what was written on it, and on everyone's table, there was a small hot pot.

It was some time ago, when foreign tribes came up with tribute. It was just a small copper stove with a few pieces of copper wire on it, and a small candle on the base.

Once lit, it heats up the contents on it. In the stove inside, pour the soup stock that had been boiled before, wait for the water to boil, and then put the marinated beef, mutton and vegetables in it, but after a while, you can eat the hot slices of meat.

Leng Yexuan just tasted it once, but he liked it very much, and he had to eat it in a few days.

Xia Nishang is pregnant now, and she didn't dare to eat more of those things, but seeing that Leng Yexuan was eating vigorously, she tried to taste two pieces. If it is accompanied by some spicy seeds, the taste is really good.

"Just do as you say." Xia Nishang gently closed the note. Er Lan wrote very well, and Xia Nishang quickly finished reading it. In fact, Er Lan and Ran Tian are still very relieved to do things, otherwise, they would not have handed over such an important matter to her.

"Then the slave and maid went to inform the people below, and got ready as soon as possible." Er Lan was also relieved when she saw Xia Nishang nodding.

"Go ahead, don't be too tired, so is Ran Tian." Xia Nishang knew that Er Lan still had to explain to the people in the imperial dining room, so she carefully instructed. If it weren't for the fact that she was inconvenient now, these things should have been done by her. However, now that the matter is being pushed to these two palace maids, seeing that their busy feet do not touch the ground tomorrow, Xia Nishang is still a little distressed.

"Don't worry, the slave can save it." Er Lan smiled at Xia Nishang, then turned around and walked out.

She still had to go to the imperial dining room, although the broth was already available before, but the slices of meat that went to the pot had to be marinated in advance, otherwise the taste would be much worse if she ate it then.

When he was about to walk to the door, Er Lan saw the fan coming with Leng Yechenlin, and stopped.

"Sister Fanxi." Er Lan stopped and looked at Fan Xi with a smile.

"Do you want to go out and get busy?" Fan Xi watched her hurried footsteps, and guessed a few points. She is stupid, she can't help Xia Nishang do anything, she can only take good care of Leng Yechenlin, which can be regarded as a reward for her.

"Yes, it's cold outside, sister, let's go in." Er Lan looked at the tip of his nose that was a little red from the cold, and said with concern.

"Well, it's getting dark, you should be careful, get a lantern and go out." Fan Xi led Leng Yechenlin, but he was also worried that he was suffering from the cold, so he couldn't say anything to Er Lan, but gently instructed her.

"Hmm." Er Lan gently bowed his head, and the two of them walked over.

"Yo, why are you here at this time?" Xia Nishang heard the voice, sat up, and saw the fan who led the cold night Chenlin slowly walked in.

"The Queen Mother." As soon as Leng Ye Chenlin saw that it was Xia Nishang, he ran forward with a smile.

"Slow down, slow down, don't fall." Xia Nishang leaned on the edge of the bed and looked at her son who ran over with a loving face.

Leng Ye Chenlin knew that his queen mother was now pregnant, and she had a baby in her belly, so she couldn't hold him. So Leng Ye Chenlin obediently stood beside Xia Nishang, with a faint light on his face.

"Mother, when will my brother come out?" Leng Yechenlin tilted his head and looked at Xia Nishang's stomach with a smile.

"How do you know it's my brother? Is my sister bad? Xia Nishang gently touched her son's head, looking very loving.

"What do you want to do?" Leng Yechenlin looked entangled, as if he was really thinking about whether Xia Nishang was a boy or a girl in her belly.

"You're a greedy person." Xia Nishang scratched her son's nose, thinking that he was really cute, and she couldn't wait to hold him in her arms and accompany him.

However, Xia Nishang looked down at her towering belly, and gave up this plan.

"Mother, it's time to take medicine." As he spoke, Ran Tian walked in with a bowl of medicine. It was pitch black and exuded a hint of bitterness.

"Hey, I really don't want to drink it." Xia Nishang looked at the things that Ran Tian brought in, frowning slightly. I always felt that the thing was very unpleasant, bitter, and very difficult to swallow.

"Mother, why are you drinking this, is the queen mother sick?" Leng Ye Chenlin looked at the medicine bowl she brought in, and looked at Xia Nishang very worriedly. Doesn't the queen mother have a baby now, why do she still need to drink medicine?

"Niangniang, the doctor said that you are weak and can't stop drinking." Ran Tian knew that Xia Nishang didn't like the bitter potion, but for the sake of her body, Ran Tian still had to force her to drink it.

"The queen mother is not sick, this thing is good for the baby in the belly, so the queen mother wants to drink it." Xia Nishang looked at Ran Tian's appearance, and knew that she couldn't hide from what she said today, so she took the medicine bowl and drank it all.

"To you, Queen Mother." Leng Ye Chenlin stood aside, watching Xia Nishang wrinkle her nose, and drank the black medicinal juice. Leng Ye Chenlin remembered that when he was sick, Aunt Fan Xi would also let herself drink such a bitter medicinal juice. However, when he had finished drinking, he would give him a sweet candied fruit to eat.

Leng Yechen Lin looked at it, and there was a candied fruit box in his hand. picked up one from it and handed it to Xia Nishang.

Xia Nishang was slightly stunned, only to see the things in Leng Yechenlin's hand, and couldn't help but be very moved. Where would she have thought that her son, who was less than three years old, would already be so sensible.

With tears in his eyes, he opened his mouth and swallowed the candied fruit handed over by Leng Yechenlin.

Leng Ye Chenlin was very happy to see that his mother had eaten the candied fruit, so he also took a piece and put it in his mouth.

Because Xia Nishang is pregnant, the candied fruit is mostly sweet and sour, Leng Ye Chenlin has never eaten like this, and he was speechless for a while.

Seeing this, Fan Xi hurriedly took a small cup of tea and fed him to drink it, which was considered the end of the matter.

Xia Nishang was not in good health, and after taking the medicine, she began to feel a little sleepy. Leng Yechenlin is young, and he can't play for too long, and his spirit is not so full.

The mother and son talked for a while, and Fan Xi took him back.

After Fan Xi left, Erlan came back, she had already done all those things, and was waiting for tomorrow's Chinese New Year's Eve palace banquet. Xia Nishang was really tired this day, so she asked Er Lan to serve her and went to the back room to wash up, and then fell asleep.
