Chapter 126 The Invitation Was Answered
Yu Yinxiang didn't want to reveal his identity, so he used his identity to oppress people and asked Shen Zhuru to agree to this matter.
But the reputation of the medicinal restaurant has already spread to the palace, and the queen mother only mentioned it slightly, and he happened to hear it.
Yu Yinxiang knew this was an opportunity.
If you do it well, it will be very helpful for your future.
Although he was unwilling, for the sake of that possibility, he didn't want to miss the opportunity to invite Shen Zhuru into the palace.
"Can the lady take a step to speak?" In the end, Yu Yinxiang asked.
"Good. Inside please. Shen Zhuru thought about it, nodded in response, and invited Yu Yinxiang to the backyard, preparing to be used as a residence in the small courtyard.
There is no need to worry about being heard here, and whether it is a rejection or a promise, it will not make much of a difference.
"Boss, I still want you to agree to my request, this matter is beneficial to you."
"I thought Childe was going to say something, but if it was just that, I thought it would be ......"
"Boss, my name is Yu Yinxiang, the second prince today, I invited you to the palace for the birthday banquet of the imperial grandmother. With your acquaintance with Qin Yuxiao, I think you also know about the Queen Mother's birthday in the near future. It's also full of sincerity that I personally invited me like this, can you really bear to refuse me? Yu Yinxiang interrupted Shen Zhuru's words, directly indicating his identity, and the last question obviously aggravated the tone, and he had already used the posture of identity oppression, forcing Shen Zhuru to refuse.
"The people's daughter didn't know that His Royal Highness the Second Prince was coming, please forgive me for being offended before. It's just that the Queen Mother's birthday is really important. It would be best if the craftsmanship of the people could be appreciated by the Queen Mother, but after all, the diet such as medicinal food is too novel, and I am afraid that the Queen Mother is unlikely to accept it. Not to mention, there are countless concubines in the palace, and this medicinal diet is not suitable for everyone. I am afraid that it is inappropriate to be rash, and please think twice about Your Highness. Shen Zhuru blessed his body, showing due respect, but he also pointed out his concerns.
Serving the people in the palace is not a trivial matter, and doing well is naturally prosperous. But if it is messed up, it will be a crime of killing the head, and even punishing the nine clans.
This is not a grace that ordinary people can afford, although she is confident. But I didn't want to take any risks.
"Boss, your concerns are right, if there is really anything, I can bear it for you as much as I can bear, as long as you are careful. There will definitely be no problem. Although I don't like to oppress people with power, I have to be a wicked person today. Please don't blame the proprietress of the proprietress of blame. You have to go to the palace this time, this is five thousand taels of silver tickets, enough for you to lose a few days, or even more than that. I will send someone to invite you into the palace, first try to make some medicinal food for the queen mother, if it suits your heart, you leave part of the meal on the birthday day, if not, you leave the palace. Likewise you will keep the money. I won't lose you anyway. Yu Yinxiang said and took a silver ticket from his sleeve pocket and stuffed it into Shen Zhuru's hand, with a very tough attitude.
Holding the silver ticket of five thousand taels in his hand, Shen Zhuru looked at it, pursed her lips, and finally nodded.
"It's so good, and everyone is happy. Today, you should prepare first, and after resting for the night, I will send someone to take you into the palace early tomorrow morning. ”
"Hmm."
Yu Yinxiang smiled, in a good mood.
When I was about to leave, something suddenly came to mind. He stopped and turned around.
"I wonder if the proprietress has ever heard of crystal zongzi?"
"Huh?" Shen Zhuru raised her eyebrows in some surprise.
"The boss lady is an accident, could it be that you will do it?"
"It's not difficult to make this zongzi, but the main reason is that the materials are difficult to find."
"Oh, what kind of material. Tell me, if I have time to make it ready, you will also make enough crystal rice dumplings, and you will have a lot of benefits at that time. Yu Yinxiang smiled happily, but he didn't expect that he just asked casually, but he also had an unexpected joy.
"A white pellet called sago. As far as I know, this thing is a kind of about nine meters high, fifteen years of maturity and flowering, the tree dies after fruiting, there is white pith in the fruit, it can be precipitated by water grinding filter residue, sieved into granules, the size is different, the particles are white after drying, white and smooth glutinous, if the white particles are cooked, look at it is clear and crystalline, put it in cold boiled water and add sugar, the taste is soft and glutinous, the taste is quite good. If memory serves, there is a Zhao An Zhao master in Qiyang County, who should know the source of this thing. As for how much I can prepare, whether I can do it in time, I can't do anything. ”
"It's much easier to have a provenance. The proprietress really knows how to make this thing. However, the reason why I know is that I also have the opportunity to eat some of these crystal zongzi, which are really soft and glutinous as you said, and the taste is quite good, which is slightly different from ordinary zongzi. The most important thing is special. I wonder if you can make it into a dumpling form, but there are other ways to do it? ”
"Yes. However, how to make the specific method, you must first have the materials, after all, it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice. ”
"Understood, understood. Then I'll wait for the arrival of the proprietress tomorrow. ”
"Your Highness still calls me Miss Ru, the boss lady calls like this, even if it is heard in the palace, it is a little weird."
"Good. Goodbye, Miss Ru. Yu Yinxiang arched his hand and turned to leave.
Xiaoyu had already come back in the distance, and when she saw that the two were talking, she just stood at the door and waited, not daring to disturb.
Shen Zhuru was originally going to talk to Gusu Changfeng about entering the palace, but he didn't look back at the courtyard on Gate Street that day, so he didn't have a chance to say it, but just explained to Xiaoyu, if Gusu Changfeng asked her where she went, she said that she had something to do and needed to leave for a few days, and she would come back on the 24th at the latest.
This time I left, Xiaoyu couldn't take it with me.
In such a complicated place as the palace, if Yueyang and Yuxu were there in the past, it would be okay to bring them, as for Xiaoyu, after all, the little family is a little angry, and it is not suitable to deal with that kind of scene, it is better to stay and watch the house.
At three o'clock the next day, someone sent by Yu Yinxiang came to pick up Shen Zhuru into the palace.
Changed into a set of blue-green embroidered vest skirts with white fox fur collars, put on a pair of fox fur gloves, and Shen Zhuru, who still covered her face with a layer of white veil, got into the carriage sent by Yu Yinxiang and slowly drove towards the direction of the palace.
The carriage is not luxurious on the outside, but it is very comfortable on the inside, and the whole bearskin cushion under the body alone is worth a lot of money, not to mention some small mechanisms that make the carriage more comfortable and convenient to sit on.
With the furnishings in the car, it should be the car of Yuyinxiang Weifu during his private visit, low-key luxury.
When the carriage arrived at the gate of the palace, it was already close to noon, and it was only half an hour before noon.
With Yu Yinxiang's explanation and waist card, Shen Zhuru entered the palace smoothly and was directly sent to the imperial dining room. (To be continued.) )
