Chapter 137: Half a Day of Leisure

"No wonder Heng'er dotes on her, she's a clever girl." After Yifang left, Empress Dowager Bo said to Rong Yang.

"The Queen Mother thinks plain beauty is good?"

"I don't know yet, but it looks a lot better than Naven's." Empress Dowager Bo asked Rong Yang, "The Wen family has not come here anymore in the past few days?" ”

"Yes, Yue Liang hasn't been here for a few days."

"It was really Heng'er who said something to her just now." Empress Dowager Bo sighed, "The Wen family is also pitiful, and he wants to use such a clumsy means to arouse the dissatisfaction of the mourning family with the Dou family, but he has made himself disgusted by Heng'er." ”

"What does the queen mother mean that Yue Liangren doesn't love to come over now?"

"Yes, Heng'er thought that the mourning family didn't want to see the Dou family because the Wen family was playing right and wrong in front of the mourning family, so naturally she was not allowed to come again." Empress Dowager Bo sat down with a smile, "I didn't expect this son of the mourning family to be really a lover." In the past, he was obsessed with political affairs, and he didn't come to the harem for a long time, and the mourning family was still worried about the problem of heirs. Now it seems that the mourning family has arranged for him to serve the person who is not in line with his wishes. ”

The Queen Mother laughed softly, Rong Yang saw it in her eyes, and she didn't know whether she was happy or sad.

Liu Heng didn't come to the harem before, not only because he was busy with political affairs, but also because the people in the harem were not liked by him. In order to avoid the urging of the Empress Dowager Bo, she threw herself on political affairs, and the harem did not enter a few times, but she would govern the country on behalf of the country, and the Empress Dowager Bo would not be able to say anything. It's just that now that I have a ripple house, I want to go to the harem more, but I am still entangled in government affairs, and I try my best to squeeze out some time.

In the evening of this day, the whole day was finally dealt with, Liu Heng was about to go to Guangyang Palace, and suddenly a eunuch came to report, and Ziqian had something to report. Liu Heng had no choice but to lead him into the study again.

"What?" Liu Heng asked anxiously.

"Your Majesty, there is news from Yue Liangren's side again, and there are only four words on the intercepted note this time." Ziqian handed over the note.

Liu Heng came to take a closer look, and it read: "The hunt of Muzhou." ”

"According to the usual practice, next month is the king's annual Muzhou hunt, and the minister intercepted this note at this time, thinking that they would do something on this hunt, but what exactly it is has not yet been known." Ziqian took the note back and rolled it up, and put it in its original place after a while, so as not to startle the snake.

"What's there to do on the hunt?" Liu Heng thought about it carefully, "Since it is the Wen family's idea, it must be aimed at the people she dislikes, such people are in the palace, and there are only other concubines of this king." ”

"The king is wise, and the minister has heard that Yue Liang is jealous, if she says that she dislikes the most, it must be a few family members who came to represent the country with her." Even Ziqian can think of this layer.

Liu Heng nodded in agreement: "Yes, if she wants to start, the first thing she will bear the brunt of must be Yifang." ”

"Then according to the king's wishes, what should we do next?"

"You continue to pay attention to their movements, there will definitely be other news coming out in the future, be sure to keep an eye on it, be sure to cut that note." Liu Heng slapped his palm on the table.

"No."

In fact, in addition to the hunt in Muzhou, there is another recent event, that is, the birthday of the Empress Dowager Bo. Now that the palace has begun to prepare, this is a rare event, and Liu Heng also intends to make the Queen Mother happy, so he ordered to go down and do a big job. Today's generation of the country can be regarded as a rich country and a strong people, and it is not impossible to hold such a grand event.

When I came to Guangyang Palace, I saw Yifang with several people busy in the courtyard, and the silk threads that were originally boiled were taken out and re-cooked, and there were a lot of ingredients. Liu Heng went around a few times before he successfully walked in front of Yifang, he picked a fallen leaf from her shoulder, and always felt that this girl was carried away when she started to do things.

"Why is the king here?" Yifang was a little surprised, thinking that he was going to prepare for the Queen Mother's birthday banquet recently, and he didn't have time to come to Guangyang Palace!

"Go and do your own work!" Liu Heng first gave an order to the people who were holding the ceremony, and then replied, "Although the birthday of the Queen Mother is going to be grand this time, most of them are taken care of by the eunuchs and palace maids everywhere, and there is no need for this king to worry about it everywhere." I'm just busy and here, so I'm here to take a look at you. ”

"It's rare that the king is still thinking about the concubine in his busy schedule, so let's try the pastry that the concubine has just made!" Yifang took a piece of hibiscus jade cake from a small plate and fed it to him, "How does it taste?" ”

"The craftsmanship of the Yi room is no worse than those in the dining room." Liu Heng was praised from the bottom of his heart.

"The emperor will coax the concubine to be happy, where can the concubine's craftsmanship compare to the dining room! It's just that I want the queen mother to survive, and I made some pastries and sent them by myself, which can be regarded as fulfilling some filial piety. But if the things in front of the Queen Mother are naturally the best, I will try to make them a few days in advance. ”

"Yifang, you have a heart."

"Last time, the concubine sent a box of snacks to the Queen Mother, and she received a few words of praise from the Queen Mother, so I remembered it in my heart." Yifang smiled like a flower, "I'm doing something else now, I hope the Queen Mother can like it." ”

"It's not easy to make pastries, Yifang has mastered it so skillfully, I don't know if I can make wine?" Liu Heng suddenly mentioned it.

Yifang thought for a while and replied: "The concubine has never made wine before, but I have heard some steps to talk about, if you can find a way, maybe there will be no problem." ”

"That'll be fine." Liu Heng smiled comfortably.

Yifang was puzzled: "Does the king want to drink the wine brewed by the concubine?" Although you can give it a try, but whether it will be brewed or not, the concubine does not dare to guarantee it. ”

"This king is not greedy, but wants to tell you a good way to get the queen mother to like."

Hearing this, Yi Fang's eyes couldn't help but light up: "Really? How? ”

"Yifang has been focusing on the Queen Mother recently, and he just wants to give the best to the Queen Mother, but he has neglected the king." Liu Heng deliberately mixed a little grievance in his voice.

Yifang stretched out his hand and shook his arm: "The king is angry, the concubine just wants to please the queen mother, if the queen mother is happy, the emperor will naturally be happy!" ”

"It's all about you." Liu Heng scratched her nose lightly, "Since you are so sincere, then the king will tell you." ”

Yifang pulled Liu Heng into the house from the courtyard, poured him tea, and served him some pastries, waiting for him to explain that good method. Liu Heng didn't hide it, and talked eloquently as soon as he sat down.

"Once upon a time, when my father was still alive, my mother often loved to drink with him. Later, for a while, the king often heard his mother mention a kind of jade wine, saying that his father promised to make it for her, but after thinking about it for a long time, the wine was still not brewed after all. Although the queen mother has never mentioned it over the years, this king knows that this jade wine has always been a piece of her heart, and if you can brew it and dedicate it to the queen mother, you will definitely get her favor. ”

"Really?" Interest rose in Yifang's heart.

"Of course it's true, how could this king lie to you?" Liu Heng scratched her nose again.

"But the concubine didn't know how to make this wine." Yifang suddenly had a hard time again.

"This king has already sent people to the people to look for it, and there will be news in the next few days." Liu Heng was fully prepared for this matter, and just wanted Yifang to be recognized by the Queen Mother as soon as possible.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. When the concubine brews the wine, she will first give it to the king to taste, and if the taste is right, then take it and offer it to the queen mother. Yi Fang smiled at Liu Heng.

"This king has become your drug tester?" Liu Heng was a little funny.

"The king is wrong, no matter how bad the brew is, the concubine will not be poisonous!" Yifang pretended to be angry and turned away.

Liu Heng smiled when he saw this, and quickly hugged her into his arms: "This is angry?" ”

"Angry." Yifang said bluntly.

Liu Heng kissed the hair on her sideburns: "Don't be angry, this king just said it casually." ”

"The concubine also said it casually." Yifang finally couldn't help laughing again, laughing so much that he shrank into Liu Heng's arms and rolled himself into a small ball.

Early the next morning, Teng Ling led people to wait at the door of the dormitory early. Liu Heng had already left to go to the court, and when he left, he told them not to disturb the rest of the room. Teng Ling was worried that there was no one around when Yifang woke up, and because of Liu Heng's instructions, he chose a compromise method, and a group of people waited at the door.

"Tengling, come in!" After waiting for a while, I heard the sound of Yifang coming from inside, which was a lazy, cat-like voice.

Teng Ling secretly thought to himself, Yifang seems to be softer than before, if it used to be a rock by the lake, now it is a willow branch in the wind. If it is no matter which one it is, it is also unique in the Yifang.

"The beauty is awake?" Teng Ling beckoned someone to bring the toiletry to him, and stood next to him and talked to Yifang.

The palace maids behind him rushed in, and they were eight people with good rules. Yi Fang glanced at it, this scene was very similar to when she was just selected by Empress Lu and became a member of the family. It was also eight palace maids who lined up and walked into the house, groomed and dressed her, and pulled her hair in a bun to look like the master.

At that time, I only felt panic in my heart, I felt upset about my future life being uncertain, and I was uncomfortable because others were waiting for me. Now he is gradually getting used to it, and he really regards himself as a master, and accepts the service of the maids with peace of mind.

"What are the beauties thinking?" Tengling's voice came into his ears, and Yifang realized that he was a little distracted.

"It's nothing, I just remembered the days in Chang'an Palace in the past, and I felt that time passed too quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it had been some time since we came to represent the country."

"Yes, although I haven't had a good life in Chang'an, I still miss something." Teng Ling pursed his lips, "I don't know if there will be a chance to go back and take a look at the palace maids who look similar to me in the past." ”

"Well, look forward to everything, and be at peace with what comes." Yifang also sighed, "Dress up for me first!" ”
