Chapter 80: The Queen Mother's Grace
And she went to learn Zhai cuisine as an imperial concubine, but it was to be filial to her mother-in-law Su Guifei, Su Guifei didn't know if she did too much evil in order to compete for favor when she was young, or did something lacking in virtue when she was fighting for power, and she was panicked in her heart, I am afraid that it was to wash away the ugliness and fear in her heart. That's why I eat fasting and chant Buddha.
Otherwise, Yu Die'er can't figure it out until now, how can she have the idea of eating fast with a temperament like Concubine Su. After all, eating fasting and reciting the Buddha is loved by peaceful, kind-hearted people, or it is a way for people who have atoned for their sins to relieve themselves.
It's a pity that eating fasting and reciting Buddha can't change the original temperament of Su Guifei, Yu Die'er returned from school, and worked tirelessly every day to make fasting meals for her, which meal she didn't eat on a dry bowl? After eating, she still counted: "Although you are now the imperial concubine, the emperor loves you a lot, but don't be pampered and arrogant, you must be dedicated to the emperor, the emperor is tired, you make more delicious food for him, and the mourning family heard that Concubine Ying is happy? ”
Turn her alive into a servant of the dining room. Hebi only said that it was because she cooked deliciously, and those who were able to work hard. So even if she was sick, she had to work all day long, cooking for Su Guifei, for Hebi, and for those concubines who were even inferior to her. If you don't go, you will be charged with being squeamish and lazy.
When I went out the next day, I whispered endlessly: "If you have a rich body, you will get sick when you cook a dish?"
"Who knows if it's a real illness or a fake illness?"
"Relying on the emperor to favor her, she didn't even listen to the Queen Mother's words. ”
The emperor favors her? Everyone thinks so, even herself, doesn't she think so? can only say that Hebi is disguised, and can only say that she is too stupid. His favor is only to say good things with his mouth, go to his palace a few more times, and reserve a position as a concubine for himself, but he does not defend himself at all. Pity yourself for the sake of a high-sounding so-called love, but I endured everything, and I endured it for six years.
It's just that I felt that I should, so I should repay the favor. It's a pity that in the end, even this reason was shattered. He is just a pawn, and he has some use on the road to power.
They look down on themselves from the bottom of their bones, how can they look down on a woman who is born in common? Even if Hebi may have coveted her beauty, Yu Die'er now feels that if Hebi was not afraid of Hetai's heart for herself, and was worried that she would be hated and retaliated by Hetai for neglecting or abandoning her, I am afraid that she would have kicked herself away a long time ago!
The most important thing in the harem is beauty. He is already a king, and the beauties of the world are still not allowed to be snare by him?
Hetai is also as stupid as himself, just because Hebi told him that he had a love affair with himself, Hetai admitted it, Hebi said that he wanted to give himself the best wealth, and Hetai helped him ascend the throne, why is he so stupid? As stupid as himself!
If it were in this life, if it was now, he told Hetai that he fell in love with the man next to him, would he still do it? Yu Die'er sometimes really doubted whether Hetai loved his own efforts, or repaid his gratitude? If it was love, how could he never show it, never strive for it, and only accept it silently!
Thinking of this, Yu Die'er unconsciously looked at Hetai, but who knew that she just happened to meet his gaze, I don't know how long he had been looking at herself?
"You are blessed, there are not many people who can learn cooking from Master Guifan, otherwise the mourning family would have invited one to come back and listen to it in this palace. The Queen Mother looked regretful. After drinking a bowl of soup, he said to Yu Die'er.
"Isn't there a slave now? If the Queen Mother likes it, the slave and the maid will often make it for the Queen Mother in the future. "Yu Die'er is sincere, she has a good impression of the Queen Mother, at least the Queen Mother seems to be a good person, and she is also Hetai's imperial grandmother, and she is so good to him, she owed Hetai in her previous life, and she should still be in his loved ones in this life.
Hetai's position is opposite the Queen Mother, and he can see Yu Butterfly when he raises his eyes, he looks at Die'er's dark eyes for a while as if he is thinking about something, and then he pouts some resentment, and suddenly glances at himself again, and then avoids his gaze in a panic, I really don't know what her little head thinks interestingly.
The queen mother was delighted when she heard this, and only said that it was the best! She didn't forget to remind the emperor to arrange for Ximian Palace to have more moon silver, and to allocate more ingredients and send more minions, otherwise this will have to be given to the emperor, and she will have to cook for herself and make medicine, so how can she be busy. ”
"The minions assigned to the Ximian Palace have also been promoted to the next level, the butterfly girl is a woman from the people, in the eyes of some people, the background is low, there are those who are shallow-eyed, and it is easy to manage some favors, and the servants can better do errands for the emperor if they are obedient. The Queen Mother also mentioned the origin of Yu Die'er, but from the perspective of care, Die'er not only did not taboo, but was very moved. And the queen mother called herself a butterfly girl, and she didn't look at her as a slave, which made her even more moved.
At the same time, he also sighed that the Queen Mother deserved to have lived in the deep palace for a long time, and she was really familiar with the Taoism here, and she was afraid that the slaves would not accept herself, so she made this arrangement. This is the grace of the Queen Mother, because of her low status, the Queen Mother is afraid that she will not be able to hold the field, so she will give some honor and favor to deter those minions.
"At a young age, she left home and entered this palace, not to treat the emperor? The Queen Mother looked at the fish and butterflies lovingly, and said from the bottom of her heart. She was convinced of what the prince and Yu Die'er said that day, so she thought that Yu Die'er was invited into the palace by Heyan in order to treat the emperor.
The emperor nodded and ordered Father-in-law Yu to do it. Yu Die'er took the opportunity to ask the emperor to apply for the construction of a medicine furnace room in the Ximian Palace to facilitate medicine, and explained in detail the follow-up treatment plan for the emperor's old diseases and the varieties of pills made.
"These days are some ordinary meals, tomorrow the slave maid will start to make a medicinal meal, for the emperor to eat, acupuncture once every seven days, for two months. Then stop, if it doesn't recur after a month, it's completely cured. The pill slave maid will also start refining, and after taking it, the body will lose weight and be healthy, which will be of great benefit to the emperor's dragon body. The straightforward emperor had bright eyes and scattered smiles. Naturally, it was agreed.
After a meal, Yu Die'er retreated, Hetai found a reason to retire to the emperor and the queen mother, and when he saw that he also came out, Yu Die'er stopped in front of him and called softly, "Lord!"
"Huh?" Hetai originally wanted to stop her and say a few more words, but she didn't expect her to take the initiative to stop and wait for him, and after seeing her call herself, she pursed her lips tightly, and stopped talking. This aggrieved little look made his heart soften, and he hurriedly said, "What's the matter?" ”
"This case may involve a lot of sinister things, and the prince must be more careful when he goes out of the palace on an errand. Yu Die'er lowered her head and whispered, not looking at him. Although I always remind myself not to show care for him, I can't help but worry about him.
Hetai was happy in her heart, because of her concern, her care.
When Yu Die'er returned to Ximian Palace, she saw the queen wearing a pearl and phoenix crown and a phoenix-patterned butterfly with large sleeves sitting in the hall, and the peony stood aside to obey the order. Seeing her come back, a face under the emerald crown revealed joy, and she spoke first: "The fish lady is back, the last time I came to this palace, you were not there, and you are still not here today, this palace is expected to be that the emperor has a lot of errands there, and the girl is too busy, so I waited here." ”
The queen spoke softly, and also gave her a great deal of face in her cordial and warm manner, Yu Die'er was in a trance for a while, compared to Concubine Rou's harshness, Concubine Su temporarily avoided calmly, and the queen's performance was too eager, the contrast was so great, I don't know what the queen had in mind?
So she condensed her face with sincere fear, knelt down to greet the queen, and then personally offered another cup of fragrant tea to apologize for making the queen wait for a long time. After that, he was unusually quiet, his expression rarely fluctuated, and he only listened to the queen quietly. The previous sentence was replied to.
The queen asked her like an old friend if she could get used to it in this palace, and asked her to go to Chongqi Palace to sit more when she had free time.
was gossiping, the affairs department of the Lu steward led dozens of people from Wuyangyang, there was an old eunuch next to him, dressed very exquisitely, the Lu steward was quite respectful to him, and the queen also raised her eyebrows when she saw the comer, which seemed to be a little unexpected.
The people who came didn't seem to expect the queen to be there, and they were stunned when they saw it, and hurriedly asked for peace, and after the queen was aroused, she said with a pleasant face: "Although you do your errand, the palace is only here to be a guest, you can only treat the palace as if it is not there, so as not to have scruples and delay the errand." ”
The old eunuch thanked him and said yes, and the person in charge of Lu introduced the identity of the old eunuch to Yu Die'er, who turned out to be the leader in charge of the inner eunuch, and Pan Yusheng, the inner servant!
Yu Die'er was also taken aback, but the chief eunuch of the palace actually came in person? It seems that it is because the emperor's will makes them pay attention, otherwise this old eunuch would not have lowered his price to Ximian Palace. And the emperor's will is because of the queen mother's reminder, the queen mother is really a loving person. It's no wonder that she is the only one who is so good to Hetai who does not have a mother.
Mr. Pan: "Our family's affairs are too busy these days, I have long wanted to come, and I have not been free, this little Lu Zi is too good at doing things, and he has not yet placed a slave to serve in Ximian Palace, but fortunately, the fish female official is waiting, our family has personally selected these minions today, and asked the fish female official to pass the eyes, and pick up the hearty ones to leave the errand." ”
Yu Die'er was silent when she heard this, and did not answer immediately. Instead, he slowly went to drink the tea in his hand. She knew that silence was often an effective deterrent in the presence of such people. It's more effective than reprimanding than politeness, and I don't dare to reprimand, he is a general manager with a deep background, and his hands and eyes are all over the sky, and there is no need to reprimand, and he is not too slacking off on himself, which is already good. But if you are too polite or eager to show humility, you will make the other person think that you are weak and deceitful, and you are not worthy of their respect and fear. Since then, it has not been smooth to run errands on his own.
So the only way is to be silent, and if you don't speak, the other person will not be able to see through, not know what you think, and not know what you are going to do. will be a little jealous of you. It's just that this degree must also be grasped well, otherwise you will think that you will inadvertently offend people.
Sure enough, seeing her plain appearance, everyone who came was a little surprised, and the chief manager came forward, why is this fish female official so calm? If he couldn't figure it out, he lowered his eyebrows and lowered his head, and he didn't even have an atmosphere, waiting for Yu Die'er's next move, and the whole hall was so quiet that even a needle could be heard falling on the ground.
Yu Butterfly Catecha drank two sips, closed the lid of the celadon bowl, turned his head to the little Qianzi standing in the hall and said: "I don't have eyes, the chief manager is here, and I don't know how to see a seat." ”
