Others can turn a blind eye to Liu Yiyi's situation, but Mama Chen really can't, because she is in charge of the palace rules of Renshou Palace, once someone in the palace asks, how can she answer? Don't you have to ask the Queen Mother to give a scale?

"Queen Mother, what should Lady Liu do?" Relying on the fact that she still had some face in front of the Queen Mother, Mama Chen stepped forward and asked softly.

"Lady Liu?" Empress Dowager Lin couldn't think of Liu Yiyi for a while.

"She came back with the emperor, and the emperor didn't care about her, so she was still standing outside." Mama Chen had to remind her.

Empress Dowager Lin remembered what Du Shaonan said, the rest of the East Palace acquiesced to the Wang family and Lin Wei teaching the prince badly, but only Liu Yiyi and the lady of the Lu family, who she sent to bring food to the prince, bravely opposed.

"What are you still standing for? Let her go down and rest, she is also frightened, by the way, take two palace silk and two hairpins from the treasury, reward her and the Lu family, and tell them, the mourning family knows that they are truly loyal. Empress Dowager Lin said solemnly.

Mama Chen was stunned, then knelt down solemnly, respectfully responded down, and her eyes were slightly red when she stood up, the Queen Mother was still the third lady of the year, and she has always been the most sensible little girl with a pure heart, and she has not changed.

In order to reflect the kindness of the Queen Mother, Mama Chen personally went out to give the reward to Liu Yiyi, this Liu Yiyi couldn't imagine that she, who was worried about her fate, almost shed tears!

This made Mama Chen very satisfied: "There are loyal ministers in the court who are loyal and not afraid of life and death, and we must also be loyal servants in the palace, so as to live up to the kindness of the queen mother." ”

Faithful Servant...... As a modern man, who wants to be a slave? Liu Yiyi instinctively had an aversion to this word, but she knelt on the ground, and still kowtowed respectfully according to the rules taught by Mama Chen.

Holding the reward in both hands and returning to the small courtyard where she lived, Liu Yiyi gained envious glances along the way, and someone came forward to talk to her...... It got better too quickly, and Liu Yiyi once again realized that this was the living environment of the ancient palace!

"Miss ......" didn't wait for Liu Yiyi to knock on the door, and the lotus osmanthus came out.

"Let you be frightened too......" The news in the palace spread the fastest, and Liu Yiyi believed that she didn't need to say it again. These two girls already know it.

"I'm not frightened, the servants admire the young lady very much." Lotus said sincerely.

"Admire what. I was so scared that I was sweating, and I was still thinking about whether I was able to do it, and whether it would affect you......" Liu Yiyi could only say this to her maid and apologize by the way. Because she didn't guarantee their safety.

"The maidservants heard that no one spoke for her at that time, and everyone knew that she was wronged...... Osmanthus said in a low voice.

"I know that she was wronged, and my conscience makes me dare not ignore it, but if the emperor doesn't come. In fact, I can't help at all, and I may be able to catch up with you and the Liu family......" So Liu Yiyi is still not sure whether what she did is right or wrong, she can be safe now, just because the emperor happened to hear the truth of the facts.

"Miss, have you heard a story?" Lotus suddenly said, "There was a man in the previous dynasty, when he was in the army and fought bloodily, the woman with his childhood sweetheart was forced to enter the palace and became the emperor's concubine, but he was killed by other concubines not long after he was favored, and the man was angry when he heard the news." It really made him a ...... in the world."

“…… The man became the new emperor but did not set up six palaces, but built a tomb for his former sweetheart, his sweetheart liked red porcelain the most in his life, he couldn't afford to buy one at the beginning, but now he can order the world to pay tribute, so that all the workshops in the world can burn red porcelain, but there are many places that can't burn that kind of red porcelain like blood, so someone came up with an idea, to use unmarried girls to sacrifice to the kiln......"

Lotus was already engaged at that time, and her mother-in-law heard the news and brought a sedan chair to pick her up overnight. Her father and mother also stuffed her sister osmanthus into the sedan chair, saying that she would not pick someone for her youngest daughter, and begged her in-laws to find one at will, as long as she was single.

In this way, the sisters did not escape. As soon as the sedan chair arrived at the entrance of the village, it was stopped by the county officials who had been on guard for a long time.

"None of the girls in a village can run, and even a village is not enough, because the new king built a tomb for his sweetheart according to the rank of the queen, and how much porcelain should be piled up in such a large place! Of course, the more sacrifices, the more tributes! Osmanthus indignantly continued her sister's words.

To be honest, this kind of refining is made of living people to sacrifice. There are often in novels, the most famous is the cadre Mo Ye, the text tells this story, Zhang Yi paid attention to how to segment and the central idea when he read it, and now Liu Yiyi listens to the lotus osmanthus talking, but it seems to be listening to a terrifying story.

No, it's not a story, she has a feeling, Lotus Osmanthus is talking about what really happened!?

"Those girls were pushed into the kiln pit that was burning brightly, in addition to hearing the painful cries of their loved ones, they also saw many people breathing a sigh of relief, even with a smile on their faces, yes, they knew that these people were just acting on orders, and it would be them and their families who would die if they couldn't pay tribute, but they still couldn't help but resent in their hearts, could it be that they were born to be used by others?!"

Osmanthus said that tears fell, and there was a trace of fierceness on her face, and Lotus patted her sister and continued: "Those girls also know that no one has so much strength to save them, but they can't help but hope in their hearts, isn't there a Qingtian lord who is not afraid of the powerful in the play?" They were wronged in this way, right...... Even if there are no officials, the world should hold a grievance for them, right? Just one sentence is fine...... To say that these girls are so pitiful, not that they are good for everyone when they die......"

Speaking of this, the lotus flowers also cried, they died so miserably, but there was no grievance for them, and the grievances could not be dispersed plus the relationship of feng shui, several of them were able to cultivate into * human form, but they were not human anymore......

Liu Yiyi looked at the two maids crying, but she was at a loss, she understood this story, Lotus Osmanthus felt that she was right to stand up for that little palace maid, even if her strength was so meager that it couldn't work, but for the wronged, someone knew that they didn't deserve to die, which was already a little comfort in despair.

But why are they crying like they're being burned to death? Of course this can't be, is it their relatives, this story says that the past dynasty is actually using the past to satirize the present? But have there been emperors who have done so in recent years? There is also this porcelain, she remembers that on the way to the capital, Lotus Osmanthus wanted Yue Linfeng to arrange for her to take care of porcelain, could it be that they entered the palace to find treasures, so why do you say that they are looking for sisters?

"Miss, it's the servants who have lost their temper...... the two maids cried for a while and then stopped. Seeing that Liu Yiyi was thoughtful, she hurriedly apologized.

"It's nothing, if you don't blame me for causing trouble." Liu Yiyi didn't ask them what they were looking for in the palace, she intuitively felt that these two maids would not tell her the truth at present.

Rested in the house for a while. When it was time to prepare dinner, Liu Yiyi went to the small kitchen again, she wanted to apologize and thank the Lu family's lady, because she also felt the emotion of someone standing on her side at the moment of crisis.

As a result, there was no Lu family lady in the kitchen, and there was no Han lady. Only Don Jr.

"Boss Tang......" Liu Yiyi was suddenly uneasy, this person couldn't have heard that she was a troublesome person and came to drive people away, right? But she just received the queen mother's reward, so Xiao Tang won't be chasing people at this time, right?

"Lady Liu, I've heard about it, why is it that you are indispensable everywhere?" Xiao Tang really wasn't praising her.

"I don't know why I met ......" She has been Zhang Yi for more than 20 years, and she has not been Liu Yiyi, and she has been in danger for more than ten months.

"There's no way to meet it, you can't be indifferent......" Xiao Tang had already heard Lin Yuxiao say, something will happen wherever Liu Yiyi goes, who let her cross is the heroine?

Liu Yiyi only heard that Xiao Tang understood her. I felt a lot of comfort in my heart, so I asked with a big burden: "Boss Tang, where is the sister of the Lu family?" ”

"She was frightened, and I asked her to go home and rest," Xiao Tang is a good boss, "but there must always be someone in charge of the kitchen, and the emperor wants to dine with the crown prince and the second prince in the evening, so I will cook it myself." ”

"And what are you going to do to eat?" Of course, the person who asked so bluntly would not be Liu Yiyi, Du Shaonan also entered the kitchen with a smile on his face.

"Why, the emperor also has a pair of chopsticks on your dinner table?" Xiao Tang looked at Du Shaonan's appearance like he had only been here.

"You're right. Wasn't Lin Wei kicked out? The other people around the prince also have to be replaced, and now they are in a state of flux, and it is not good for an adult who can be trusted by the emperor to guard the prince, so Yu Xiao recommended me to the emperor. Du Shaonan was very satisfied with this. Accompanying the prince to eat and study is much stronger than listening to people quarreling at Du's house and being angered.

"Yu Xiao doesn't protect the prince?" Don Jr. is just plain weird.

Du Shaonan knew that his essay on martial arts was far inferior to Lin Yuxiao, so he was not angry: "The emperor planned to find someone else's ...... from the beginning" As for why Li Mu didn't choose Lin Yuxiao, he was also guessing.

"Probably Yu Xiao is worried about his senior brother, Yue Linfeng said that he went to Jiangdong, and there was no news about him, how old you said he was. He didn't even know that reporting safety didn't make people worry. After Xiao Tang finished speaking, he turned around and started cooking.

And after Du Shaonan came in, he looked at Liu Yiyi with his head back, looked at her and Xiao Tang generously and said: "You still don't understand Yue Linfeng's temper, what he values most, I guess he probably can't wait for the sky to fall now, and everyone doesn't have zài." ”

After Du Shaonan came back, he also looked for Fang Xiaozhu, knowing that Yue Linfeng was rejected by Liu Yiyi and fell out of love.

So blame her again? Liu Yiyi also turned around to choose the ingredients to use for dinner, she had already made it clear to Yue Linfeng, did the other party have to like each other if she liked her? If you don't like it, it's a big mistake? Yue Linfeng will be fine, right? Wouldn't she really be angered?

"If Yue Linfeng is really in a bad mood, gets sick on the road, and suffers a loss, you won't be angry with others, right?" Liu Yiyi didn't dare to ask, but Du Shaonan said directly.

Xiao Tang didn't speak, he lowered his head and was busy.

Liu Yiyi was even more uneasy when she didn't hear the answer, she looked back, Du Shaonan hurriedly put his index finger to his mouth, shook his head at her, and then pointed at Xiao Tang and shook his head.

Yes, Xiao Tang is not angry by default, he is used to saying something else without distraction when cooking, Liu Yiyi knew Xiao Tang's temperament when she was on the boat, and she forgot about it in a panic just now.

After settling down, Liu Yiyi continued to pick ingredients, but what to choose? She had discussed with the Lu family lady and Han Niangzi before, and the three of them would not do the same, but now that Xiao Tang has changed, she doesn't dare to ask, and she is worried that it will be in vain.

"After-dinner snack." Du Shaonan said beside him, and added, "What you did on the boat that I didn't eat, make it and taste it, it must be delicious, I don't mind saying a word or two for you in front of the prince." Although he didn't dare to get closer to see what Xiao Tang was doing, he saw that Xiao Tang had taken pork, so it should be a dish.

Liu Yiyi didn't look back, but she couldn't help but feel a little more relaxed in her heart, she didn't know why, why she didn't feel nervous when she heard Du Shaonan speak, maybe because Du Shaonan was always helping her?

"I've made jelly bean pods and a pinch of puff pastry on the boat, the jelly bean pods are fried in peanuts, and a pinch of puff of cake is made of meat oil, is it okay?" Liu Yiyi didn't have to be cautious when he asked Du Shaonan, and he spoke naturally.

"It's all made, the crown prince and the second prince are children, they will like it." What can make Liu Yiyi take out his hand must be approved by Xiao Tang, and Du Shaonan wants to taste it.

Everyone in the kitchen was busy, and Du Shaonan stood aside and stopped talking, he was afraid that Xiao Tang would be kicked out if he made a noise...... But everyone has a job, and it becomes more and more that he has nothing to do, no, he also has a job now, and it is too late for many people to envy him to accompany the prince.

However, this is not the life he really wants, and he never likes to nod to people, and he follows the same path...... Nearly twenty years after coming to ancient times, he still has no sense of belonging here.

"I'm done." Don Jr. did it first and finished it first.

"I've done it too." Although Liu Yiyi makes two kinds of dim sum, it is not complicated, and she finishes it quickly.

"Don Jr., what are you doing?" Du Shaonan couldn't help but take a deep breath, "Lotus leaves with meaty fragrance...... "Just smelling it makes people greedy."

"Lotus leaf steamed pork," Xiao Tang showed them before putting it in the food box, "Generally, when the lotus leaf steamed rice noodle meat is spread on the lowest layer, I used rice flour to mix the meat slices this time, but I used lotus leaves to steam one by one, inspired by zongzi, the reason is that the lotus leaf is last year's stock, and the umami is less." ”

It's early April, and the flowers and leaves in the lotus pond are just growing, so it's not suitable for picking.

"You're not going to do badly anyway." Du Shaonan said from the bottom of his heart that Xiao Tang not only has good cooking skills, but also knows how to do business, which is much better than him.

"Then you can take it for me, I still have something to do in Tang Zhitang." Xiao Tang handed the food box to Du Shaonan, today was not the day he entered the palace, and there were still people outside who had already booked to eat the dishes he made himself.

No one can find fault with the food made by Xiao Tang himself, so he doesn't need the emperor to eat it inside, he is in the courtyard outside, Du Shaonan took the food box without any pressure: "I'll help you deliver food, next time you have to make food for me." (To be continued.) )
