Chapter 118: What Are Your Plans?
At night, the imperial city of Tiandu, Chengming Palace
A young courtier in his twenties respectfully withdrew from the hall, and with a deep bow at Sixi outside the hall gate, he turned around and strode away.
Sixi, who was dressed in the costume of a dark red eunuch, had a little more majesty on his white face at this time, and watched the figure of the young courtier disappear into the night lightly, and then took the supper from the palace maid on the side and entered the palace.
Today's emperor prefers the tranquility of the Chengming Palace, so he changed the imperial study here, which is far away from the harem, but it is also much cleaner, at least this is night, there is no summons, the concubines of the harem can't come.
On the imperial case in the hall, as usual, there are folds, and the bright yellow figure seems to be buried in this mountain-like twist and turn, and only a faint corner can be seen.
Sixi sighed slightly in his heart, raised his face, and had a relaxed smile on his face: "Your Majesty, it's time for supper." ”
The emperor replied lightly and did not look up.
Sixi hung his head and stood quietly, until the emperor finished approving a piece of music in his hand, and then said again: "Your Majesty, take a break and eat something." ”
The emperor raised his head, I don't know if it was the light and shadow of the candle flame, and there were some green shadows on his handsome face.
The emperor's eyes fell on Sixi, as if he suddenly remembered something: "Sixi, is He Jianzhi here?" ”
Sixi smiled slightly, put the supper on the table in the west, and replied: "Your Majesty, didn't you say that you let He Nerd think about coming back tomorrow at noon?" This matter is not easy to do, and the minion estimates that He Nerd will be unable to sleep all night tonight. ”
"Hmm." The emperor thoughtfully put down the imperial pen in his hand, and Sixi waited for the emperor to clean his hands. Sitting down at the table, he saw the emperor take a bowl and taste it, so he carefully looked at the emperor's expression. Seeing that the emperor had finished eating one bite at a time, he didn't show any unusual looks, and couldn't help asking, "What does the emperor think of today's supper?" ”
The emperor seemed to come back to his senses at this time, and looked at the empty bowl in his hand: "It's over?" What did I just eat? ”
Sixi couldn't help but roll his eyes in his heart, but he didn't dare to show anything on his face, and said with a smile: "The emperor doesn't think that today's supper is a little different from the past?" ”
The emperor thought for a moment: "It seems to be sweet, what's the difference?" As he spoke, he stood up and was about to return to the Imperial Case. Continue to review the recital.
Sixi sighed in his heart. Fortunately, he is not one of those concubines in the harem, otherwise the emperor would have given a little sweet sentence for this carefully concocted supper, and he would probably cry.
It seems that the recipe given by the girl is not very good. Otherwise, the emperor would not have any impression after eating everything.
The imperial pen in the emperor's hand had just been picked up. Suddenly, he said, "Four joys." What did you just give me? ”
Sixi was shocked in his heart, the emperor should not have any discomfort: "Is there anything wrong with the emperor?" ”
"Not really, I just feel warm in my stomach. It's much more comfortable than the usual supper. The emperor said lightly: "In the future, I will have this kind of supper." ”
Sixi responded with a smile, packed up the empty bowl and was about to go out, when he suddenly heard the emperor's faint voice behind him: "It's the ghost girl who taught you the method." ”
Sixi smiled and said: "The emperor is wise, it is the girl today who said that it is the season to eat pumpkin, and talked about the benefits of pumpkin, and also said several medicinal herbs, so the slave thought about trying." ”
"Pumpkin?" The emperor raised his head: "You said I ate pumpkin just now?" ”
Pumpkins are easy to grow and live, and are prolific, and are the main fruits and vegetables of ordinary people in autumn, but it is precisely because of its universality among the people that it is not common in the palace. Most of the time, it is used as an adjunct, blended in the pastry, and it has never been used as the main ingredient alone.
Sixi was a little worried, the emperor's face was a little obscure under the reflection of the candle flame, and he couldn't see the joy and anger, the pumpkin was a cheap product after all, and the one above was habitually moody, so even Sixi was a little unsure whether the emperor would be angry.
But seeing that the emperor had lowered his head and continued to look at the excerpts, it seemed that he had lost interest in the topic just now, Sixi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, withdrew lightly, and suddenly heard the emperor's voice behind him.
"Go and order my private vault, and find a suitable object to reward that girl."
Sixi smiled and responded.
Prime Minister's House, a small courtyard of miscellaneous items.
Chu Feifei's room was more lively tonight, at this time the door was wide open, Chu Feifei sat on the edge of the bed with a sad face, Lu Kun stood in the room, and Qianba stood in the courtyard.
Lu Kun frowned and looked at Qianba: "What's going on?" ”
Chu Feifei said with a headache: "He is the person of the Sixth Prince, the Sixth Prince's father sent him to spy on me, today I am anxious to see Brother Lu, so I asked him to help send a message to Brother Lu." ”
Lu Kun's handsome face was full of anger, and he was about to take a step, Chu Feifei hurriedly grabbed Lu Kun's sleeve: "Brother Lu, let him go, this Qianba also saved my life." Saying that, Chu Feifei told him about Tengyun Tower.
Lu Kun frowned slightly and said: "I have heard about Tengyun Tower, you are too bold, sneak out without telling me, fortunately, Mu Zishui followed you." Lu Kun would never be angry with Chu Feifei, frowning like this is already Lu Kun's limit.
Chu Feifei naturally knew that Lu Kun was unhappy, so he shook Lu Kun's sleeve beggingly: "Brother Lu, I won't be in the future." Then he quickly changed the topic: "Brother Lu, let's talk about what to do about this flower god society, this emperor is really crazy, so he will hand over such a big matter to me." ”
Lu Kun remembered the few "earth-shattering" good things that Chu Feifei had done in recent days, and his heart felt powerless, is this what the god stick said, the momentum of the sky can't be suppressed? The little master is destined to be extraordinary, and he hid her in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the little master still showed his edge step by step.
It's just that he faced that emperor so quickly, but Lu Kun didn't expect it. In Lu Kun's expectation, this layout will take half a year to prepare properly, the first emperor's talisman has not been found, the biggest back hand left by the first emperor has not yet received it, Lu Kun has been busy with this matter recently.
Unexpectedly, in just a few days, the little master actually abolished Tengyun Tower, an important hall in Tiandu City, and sold himself 10,000 taels of gold Lu Kun gritted his teeth when he thought of this, the little master is really getting more and more capable
Seeing the one standing in the courtyard in a blink of an eye, Lu Kun felt irritable again, why did the six princes also come to intervene, do you think this world is not lively enough?
Chu Feifei knew that his recent actions were a bit "outstanding", and he had a very good attitude with a smiling face: "Brother Lu? ”
Lu Kun took a deep breath, put those troublesome things aside, looked at Chu Feifei and said gently, "Feifei, what are your plans?" ”
