"This lotus leaf chicken is often eaten by the slave maid in the days outside the palace, and the slave maid wanted to make some taste for the concubine Niangniang." Ah Ruan looked innocent and replied word by word.

The lotus leaf chicken in the basket also exudes a quiet aroma, hooking people's taste buds, although it is not a folk thing, but the smell is extremely good, people can't help but swallow their saliva secretly.

"You are a faithful slave who knows how to look out for your master." Xie Yinglie's face was cold, and he couldn't help but glance at Ah Ruan a few more times.

"Slaves and maidservants should do what their masters do."

Suddenly, Ah Ruan's cheeks were slightly red, and he lowered his head and replied softly.

"You just said that the concubine has a poor appetite, have you ever asked the imperial doctor to see you?" Xie Yuchen's phoenix eyes flashed slightly, and he asked in a low voice.

"Maybe the weather has warmed up in the past few days, and the concubine has no appetite."

Ah Ruan looked worried and replied softly.

"The slave maid originally wanted to ask the imperial doctor to go to Chaohua Palace, but the noble concubine said that she didn't want to bother the imperial hospital, so she gave up."

"Back to the emperor, my younger brother went to the imperial garden to enjoy the flowers a few days ago, and met the concubine, but I saw that she was thinner than before, and I don't know why." Xie Yinglie's face changed slightly, and he bowed towards Xie Yuchen with both hands in fists.

Seeing this, a shrewd look flashed in Ah Ruan's eyes, and he knelt on the ground and hurriedly bowed to Xie Yuchen and said, "Please also ask the emperor to be the master of my family's concubine." ”

"But what's wrong?" Xie Yuchen raised his eyebrows and asked in surprise.

Kneeling on the ground upright, Ah Ruan looked ashamed and replied in a low voice: "The emperor rarely comes to Chaohua Palace these days, and those minions in the imperial dining room are all high-minded, and they actually treat my little master's meal harshly. ”

"The meals delivered every day are extremely perfunctory, and even only one or two dishes of meat are brought." Ah Ruan scolded with words, kowtowed to Xie Yuchen and said, "The appetite of the noble concubine is not good, and she only eats a small half bowl of each meal now. ”

"The slave and maid are also distressed when they look at it." Ah Ruan knelt on the ground and did not rise.

After hearing this, Xie Yuchen's eyes sank, glanced at Wang Dafu, and asked sharply: "Is there really such a thing?" ”

Seeing Xie Yuchen's displeasure, Wang Dafu frowned, with a panicked expression, "The slave doesn't know, tomorrow the slave will definitely go to the imperial dining room to ask!" ”

You must know that Wang Dafu is an old eunuch in the palace, and he knows everything about small things, but at the moment, Xie Yuchen doesn't like Ye Hao, he knows that there are many people in the palace who tend to be inflammatory, and he will inevitably treat Ye Hao harshly.

But as a minion, he didn't dare to talk too much in front of Xie Yuchen, not to mention that Zhao Jingxian didn't like Ye Hao, if he knew that he had said good things about Ye Hao, it would be bad for him.

"There has always been no shortage of servants in the palace to please the master, even if the concubine is not happy with the emperor, but she is still the concubine Niangniang, the slaves have bullied the mother like this, it can be seen that the emperor is not in the eye."

Xie Yinglie, who was standing beside Xie Yuchen, sneered.

Immediately, Xie Yuchen's sword frowned, his deep phoenix eyes sank, and his cold face looked cold, and he scolded: "I didn't know that the atmosphere in the palace was so turbid, and there were servants who bullied the master. ”

With a loud shout, Wang Dafu's face turned pale, and he knelt on the ground and begged for mercy: "Please also ask the emperor to calm his anger!" ”

Everyone was shocked, and knelt on the ground and did not dare to speak.

"Tomorrow, the stewards in the imperial dining room will be removed from their positions and demoted to the Punishment Division for hard labor!" Xie Yuchen ordered angrily.

Seeing that Xie Yuchen was so angry, Wang Dafu's face was terrified, and he nodded again and again, "Huh." ”

"For such a trivial matter, why should the emperor be angry, it is really not good to take care of the people of the Six Palaces!" Xie Yinglie looked relieved and comforted in a low voice.

Since Ye Hao, the person in charge of the affairs of the Six Palaces is Li Hao. Lewen

At this time, Xie Yuchen's face sank, and he took a deep breath and handed the basket to Ah Ruan, "This lotus leaf chicken is almost cold, hurry up and take it back to give it to the concubine!" ”

Taking the basket, Ah Ruan saluted with a happy face: "Thank you, slave, Your Majesty." ”

Xie Yuchen's face did not change, he turned around and walked into the palace.

Wang Dafu also followed in to wait, and only Xie Yinglie and A Ruan were left outside the hall.

"Thank you King Anding for interceding for my mother!" Ah Ruan respectfully bowed to Xie Yinglie and saluted.

These behaviors aroused Xie Yinglie's interest, and he asked for a long time: "How do you say this?" ”

"Thanks to King Anding's words of justice for my little lord in the emperor, the emperor disposed of the supervisor in the imperial dining room, these are the merits of King Anding!" Ah Ruan respectfully saluted Xie Yinglie again and again.

didn't think that he would say a few more words just now, and actually helped Ye Hao, Xie Yinglie couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, "Last time, this king took away the jade scratch on the concubine's head, this time let her think about how to thank this king?" ”

"The slave will tell my mother the truth when she goes back." After Ah Ruan knelt down towards Xie Yuchen with a happy face, he got up and retreated.

Looking at the slender figure walking away, Xie Yinglie's gentle face couldn't help but evoke a light smile.

"It's really fun!"

Back in Chaohua Palace, the sky was already dark.

Seeing that Ah Ruan had not returned for a long time, Ye Zhen was thinking of sending the slaves and maids to the imperial dining room to find Ah Ruan, but before the slaves and maids in the palace left the Chaohua Palace, Ah Ruan returned.

"Why have you been out for so long and haven't come back?" Ye Hao sat on the chaise longue, with a worried look on her delicate cheeks.

"The slave came back late, which made the mother worried, and asked the little master to atone for her sins."

Ah Ruan put the basket on the table and bowed to Ye Zhen.

Ye Hao, who has always had a keen sense of smell, smelled a fragrance and asked suspiciously, "Why have you been in the Internal Affairs Mansion for a long time?" What's in this basket? ”

Immediately, Ah Ruan nodded happily and said, "The slave went to the internal affairs mansion to get some delicious fruits for the little master." As he spoke, he put those fruits on a plate and placed them in front of Ye Hao one by one.

Seeing that Ye Hao was still holding something wrapped in lotus leaves in her hand, Ye Hao frowned slightly, sniffed a few times, and asked in surprise, "What is the bread here?" ”

"The slave maid saw that Niangniang had a bad appetite these days, so she made a lotus leaf chicken for the concubine Niangniang from the small stove in the borrowed imperial dining room." Ah Ruan said as he tore off the layers of lotus leaves.

As the lotus leaf slipped, a rich aroma emanated from the lotus leaf, and the aroma was very good.

"It smells so good!" Ye Hao's beautiful eyes lit up, and a smile couldn't help but rise on her cheeks.

The lotus leaf was removed, and a golden chicken body fell inside, and Ah Ruan laughed and said, "Niangniang, hurry up and taste it, is it delicious?" ”

Ye Hao, who had no appetite just now, couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth, and said with a chuckle: "This palace only remembers that I have eaten called flower chicken in the palace, but I haven't eaten this lotus leaf chicken." ”

She stretched out her hand, picked up a chicken leg and began to bite it, the entrance was delicious and the flavor was rich, which aroused Ye Hao's taste buds, "It's delicious!" ”

"This palace only saw that you had a pair of skillful hands that could make pastries, but I didn't know that you could actually cook!"

Ye Hao couldn't help but glance at Ah Ruan a few more times, and praised with a smile, "It seems that there is a hidden person around this palace!" ”

"The master has lifted the slave and the maid!" Ah Ruan couldn't hide his elation on his face, poured another cup of tea, and sent it to Ye Hao's hands, "Concubine Niangniang, you take a sip of tea first." ”
