Chapter Seventy-Three: Rinse Tea
This Sun Cainu has a wooden expression, and when she sees Tang Fei and Liu Ying, she is not like Liang Meiren, at least she has a little reaction. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
It's just that he sat on the side and didn't say anything.
Liang Meiren is older than Tang Fei, and her rank is higher than Tang Fei, so Tang Fei is very polite to her, calling her Sister Liang.
Although Liang Meiren is not favored now, she has been favored by the emperor after all, and has lived in the palace for many years, so she also knows a lot about some twists and turns in the harem.
Tang Fei has never been a person who watches people put dishes on the plate, although the Liang beauty in front of him is inconspicuous, but she is also respectful.
Not to mention that many times it is the villain who is unconsciously offended that is the most difficult to prevent, that is, it is said that being good with Liang Meiren may not be able to be used at any time, but it is only beneficial and harmless.
Several people deliberately made friends, and the scene was very harmonious. When a few people sat down and ate snacks and refreshments, it was as good as sisters.
It's just that when everyone dispersed, when Tang Fei returned to the east chamber of the Lingering Xiang Pavilion alone, he called Kang Dahai, the little eunuch who had been cleaning in Chuxiu Palace for several years.
It turned out that when this Liang beauty intersected with Tang Fei, her words were all looking forward to Tang Fei's favor and being able to carry her.
Looking at Tang Fei's eyes was also quite strange, with a hint of anticipation in jealousy.
Although Tang Fei felt that Liang Meiren was very pitiful, she was just not favored yet, and her harem road had not yet begun, so how could she think of promoting others.
It's just that when Tang Fei saw Liang Meiren today, he felt that she was beautiful in appearance, had a soft temperament, was very good at reading people's eyes, and behaved quite measuredly, but I don't know how she angered the emperor back then, so that she was no longer favored?
Tang Fei couldn't help but feel quite strange about these things, and was worried that he would make the same mistake again in the future, so he thought about summoning Kang Dahai, an old man who had been cleaning in Chuxiu Palace for several years, to see if he knew anything.
It's just that there really seems to be something hidden in this incident, but Kang Dahai doesn't know either.
Only when Liang Meiren was favored, a strange thing happened, that is, at that time, a palace maid seemed to offend people because of her reckless speech, and she was punished by the well to wash clothes for some reason, but it was the cold winter of the ninth month, and the palace maid was poured cold water on her again, and she froze to death.
When he was found, he was already dead, his whole body was hard, and he was frozen with the well platform, and he chiseled the ice with a chisel and hammer before the body could be carried away.
Kang Dahai said it with emotion, as if it was happening in front of his eyes. Tang Fei also shivered several times when he heard this, only to feel that in this hot summer, his body was cold.
But there was no other call-up than that.
Tang Fei saw that he couldn't ask anything else, so he didn't think about it anymore, let Kang Dahai go down, and ordered Qingmei and Qingxing to go to the kitchen to spread the word and prepare for dinner.
The meals in this palace are completely different from those in the Hou Mansion, and the rules and procedures for dining are also completely different.
There is only one thing that is the same, that is, the food is still the same level as in the Great Cloud Country, and it is very monotonous and unpalatable.
When dining in this palace, there is no need for the palace maid to fetch it herself, but the palace maid who has a dining room will send the food she needs by herself.
Depending on the example, the dishes are also different.
If you are a favored concubine and want to eat something, you can also let the kitchen make it and send it separately.
Even if it's not a meal, or there are some violations, the kitchen is not to blame.
If it is like Wei Guifei Niangniang, or Zuo Shufei, then the meal does not need to come out of the imperial dining room.
Instead, they all set up small kitchens in their palaces.
The materials sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs every day are exactly the same as those in the imperial dining room, that is, the freshness and rarity are the same.
That's really eating whatever you want, and eating whenever you want.
Therefore, everything in this harem is inseparable from two things.
One thing is the division of the palace concubines, and the other thing is the emperor's favor.
And the emperor's favor is more important than the position.
After all, the ranking is quite high, but the emperor forgot about it, and it is not uncommon for concubines to be recalled for several months or even years.
And with the emperor's favor, even if your position is a little lower, the people in the palace will also respect you and let you.
Tang Fei had dinner alone.
I saw Qingmei, Qingxing and Mama Zhang were all standing on the side with their hands down.
These slaves and maids brought from home, after entering the palace, have also been taught by some old people in the palace, and now the rules and styles are very different from when they were at home.
Standing aside at this time, but the voice of the Ya Que was not heard, and even some heavier breathing sounds could not be heard, Tang Fei couldn't help but sigh in his heart that the rules in this palace were really strict, and they were unusually comparable.
After finishing the meal, the new palace maid Xiang'er brought the tea with a small black lacquer tea tray.
Tang Fei thought of the Dream of Red Mansions that he had seen in his previous life in modern times, and there was a record in it, saying that when Lin Daiyu first entered Jiafu, he knew that the first cup of tea he brought up after the meal was not drunk, but used to gargle and relieve the greasy in his mouth.
Since it's not an entrance thing, you don't need to be so cautious.
Then this work can be done by Xiang'er.
, Tang Fei took the tea brought by Xiang'er, and sure enough, he brought a gargle to let Tang Fei rinse his mouth.
Here, Qingmei served the tea she wanted to drink.
Tang Fei secretly thought that it was fortunate that he had read Dream of Red Mansions in his previous life and remembered this plot, otherwise he would really be ugly.
Tang Fei took a sip of tea, because it was brought by Qingmei, he was relieved.
smiled and said to the people standing on the side: "Don't stand all of them, it seems that I, the master, is not close to people." Don't withdraw the food, let's share it together. Don't serve me, you'll be starving. ”
In ancient times, this allowed the subordinates to eat their own leftover meals, but it was not a matter of humiliating the subordinates, but a real reward.
Not to mention what kind of food the palace maid gives her, just say that this master and servant eat the same food, which can make the people under him feel extraordinary.
That's a sign that values you.
Qingmei didn't think that when they were in the Hou Mansion, they often ate at the same table with Tang Fei.
But several eunuchs and maids in the palace were very excited.
Nakang Dahai, in particular, was simply flattered.
His hands were trembling slightly when he was holding the food.
Seeing his appearance, Tang Fei wanted to reuse him even more in his heart, but his face was indifferent, and he didn't show it.
