Chapter 35: Dancing under the Moon
The next day
In the Huining Palace, where Concubine Hui is located:
"What? You said that Your Majesty, who has never played the piano for any woman, actually stroked the piano for a mere cook last night, is this true? ”
Hearing the news, Concubine Hui almost broke the jade hairpin in her hand, and she looked at the palace maid Xiaoju in front of her in surprise who came to report His Majesty's situation, and said with a look of disbelief.
"Yes, the slave saw it with her own eyes." The palace maid Xiaoju glanced at Concubine Hui and said respectfully.
"Damn, now even a mere cook dares to compete with this palace for favor?" Concubine Hui clutched the jade hairpin in her hand tightly, and a trace of anger flashed in her beautiful eyes.
"That cook lady looks like a clear soup and little water, how can she be half as good-looking as her mother.
The slave estimated that His Majesty was only greedy for freshness, so he got so close to the cook.
When Your Majesty's freshness passes, Your Majesty will naturally return to Niangniang. "
The slave maid Xiaoju looked at her mouth, nose and ears and said what she liked to hear to Concubine Hui.
"Among so many palace maids in this palace, it is your little mouth that speaks the most."
Hearing this, Concubine Hui's heart suddenly burst into joy, she raised her head and glanced at the palace maid Xiaoju, and said with anger turned into joy.
"If the mother likes to listen to it, then the slave will say more, so that the mother can also be happy." The palace maid Xiaoju looked at Concubine Hui in front of her with a flattering face, and said with a smile.
Seeing Xiao Ju's flattering and humble appearance, Concubine Hui was overjoyed.
She put the jade hairpin in her hand back on the table and said to Xiao Ju: "Xiao Ju, comb the most beautiful bun for this palace, wear the best hair accessories, and pick the best clothes." "
"Niangniang, you asked the slave maid to prepare these, where are you going?" The palace maid Xiaoju looked at Concubine Hui who had rubbled on her lips and asked curiously.
"You still need to ask, of course I'm going to meet that lowly little cook." Concubine Hui put down the rouge in her hand, looked at the palace maid Xiaoju, and said with a proud face.
"Okay, I understand, the slave will immediately braid your hair in a bun." After the slave Xiaoju finished speaking, she quickly helped Concubine Hui to braid her hair in a bun.
After a while, Concubine Hui was ready, she raised her head and glanced at the slave Xiaoju, raised her hand and combed her hair and clothes, and said to Xiaoju: "Xiaoju, go, set up the imperial dining room." "
"Yes!" Xiao Ju stretched out her arm doggedly while responding.
Concubine Hui put her hand on Xiao Ju's hand, and then raised her steps and walked towards the gate of Huining Palace.
At this time, in the Imperial Dining Room:
Chu Yunshan methodically took out a piece of meat from the board and accurately slashed at the most vulnerable part of the meat.
Cut neatly and stack evenly on a plate.
Xiao Yuan, the cook standing next to Chu Yunshan, looked at her skillful knife skills with envy, and a deep appreciation flashed in her round eyes.
She looked at Chu Yunshan with admiration on her face, and asked softly: "Miss Chu, have you ever been a spoon before, your meat cutting technique looks like you have practiced for many years." "
"No, it's just that my family was poor when I was young, and my father often went out early and returned late for business, so I had no one to take care of myself, and I could only learn to take care of myself, and the skill of cooking was also honed by myself at that time." Chu Yunshan raised her head and glanced at the young lady cook next to her, and said with a friendly smile.
"Then it seems that Miss Chu's previous life was really hard." The cook raised her head and glanced at Chu Yunshan, and said softly.
"It's okay, it's all over, and if you haven't suffered from poverty, where is the sweetness now? Are you right? Chu Yunshan raised her head and glanced at Yuanyuan with a smile, her beautiful big eyes seemed to be loaded with stars, as bright and moving as ever.
"Hmmm! That's right. Yuan Yuan politely returned a big smile to Chu Yunshan and nodded in response.
"The current slave, is it really not rude, and when you talk while chopping vegetables, aren't you afraid of staining Your Majesty's food?" A sharp voice sounded, Concubine Hui walked into the imperial dining room, looked at the two people who spoke, and said in a weird manner.
As soon as Concubine Hui walked in, Chu Yunshan smelled Concubine Hui's disgusting fragrance of roses.
But she didn't intend to pay attention to Concubine Hui's sarcastic words, but concentrated on cutting the meat on the board.
But some people are like this, the more you ignore her, the more she thinks you are a bully, and thus steps on your head.
No, Concubine Hui not only didn't salute when she saw two such lowly cooks, but also treated what she said as air, and the whole person immediately exploded.
She walked up to Chu Yunshan in three steps and two steps, snatched the knife from her hand, threw the knife on the board, looked at her and said angrily, "What? Are you deaf? Can't you hear what Hongu is saying? Your freshly cut meat was immediately lost to the palace, and the food cooked by you lowly embryos felt disgusting to the palace, not to mention that you had to eat it for your majesty. "
"Dare to ask Niangniang, why should I listen to you? This is the imperial dining room, not Huining Palace, you really don't need to run here to make a fortune. Listening to this concubine scolding in disgust, Chu Yunshan's heart was very unhappy, she raised her head and glared at her, and said coldly.
"Huh! Who are you? It's just a lowly little cook.
Dare to say here that the palace is a blessing, the country girl is the country girl, and there is no tutor at all.
I really don't know what kind of low-quality parents would teach such an uneducated daughter! Concubine Hui glared at Chu Yunshan coldly, her words were prickly, and her words were extremely ugly.
"Mother, please look at your own quality before saying that others are of low quality.
As a lady of everyone, you are so unscrupulous, it is no wonder that His Majesty raised you in the deep palace and snubbed you for so long. "
Hearing this, Chu Yunshan's unhappiness in her heart immediately turned to anger, she tried her best to restrain her temper, and looked at her coldly and said.
Chu Yunshan didn't want to get angry, and beat this damn Concubine Hui to death.
Instead, she thought that she had finally found a job, and she didn't want to be sideways anymore, so she endured Concubine Hui's provocations again and again.
If Concubine Hui stopped provoking her, then Chu Yunshan would naturally not say anything.
But this Concubine Hui is a master who is not afraid of death, seeing that Chu Yunshan not only did not do what she said, but also openly contradicted her, Concubine Hui's heart was even more angry.
So she walked up to Chu Yunshan with Xiao Ju, and her beautiful Danfeng eyes were slightly raised.
Looking at Chu Yunshan's white, tender and young cheeks in front of her, Concubine Hui's heart was so jealous that she was about to go crazy.
She raised her head and glared at Chu Yunshan coldly, and said with a sneer: "Whether this palace has quality or not, it is not the turn of a lowly cook like you to judge."
Moreover, His Majesty snubbed the palace because he was busy with state affairs, but it did not mean that he had no interest in the palace.
Since your parents haven't taught you what the rules are, then this palace will teach you a good lesson on their behalf. "
Concubine Hui sneered and finished speaking, then raised her head and glanced at Xiao Ju sharply, pointed at Chu Yunshan and said, "Xiao Ju, palm your mouth, teach this slave what the rules are." "
"Yes!" Xiao Ju raised her hand and threw it at Chu Yunshan's face, and a sharp palm wind hit.
Chu Yunshan raised her head and glanced at Xiao Ju, reached out and grabbed Xiao Ju's wrist hard.
Xiao Ju's wrist was pinched by Chu Yunshan and hurt greatly, Chu Yunshan's eyes looked at her sharply, her lovely face suddenly became cold, and her cold voice was like a Shura from hell: "If you dare to touch me, I will let your wrist be scrapped directly." "
