Chapter 264 (2)
It was precisely because Yu Bing couldn't correctly understand what Zeng Rong meant by the so-called green vegetables and wild vegetable belly, so after listening to Zeng Rong's words, she suddenly had some cravings for the shepherd's cabbage-stuffed wontons in her hometown, as well as several kinds of green vegetables unique to her hometown, such as amaranth, bracken, chrysanthemum, etc., and she had been in the capital for a month, except for leeks and spinach, she didn't eat a few bites of comfortable leafy vegetables, leeks were the most annoying to her, and spinach was not tender.
"You, can you find me a few leafy vegetables from my hometown to eat, and also, I want to eat wontons stuffed with shepherd's cabbage, will you wrap them?" Yu Bing asked softly.
"Back to Niangniang, if Niangniang has a dish she wants to eat, she can send someone to the Shangshi Bureau to say it, and they will arrange it as appropriate." Zeng Rong refused.
Not to mention that she can't find the vegetables that the other party wants, even if she can find it, she doesn't dare to bring it to the other party, this is different from cooking porridge in Cining Palace, Cining Palace is the territory of the Queen Mother, there is the Queen Mother in charge, and Zhu Heng's identity is also very different from this poppy beauty, Zhu Heng has no one to watch, even if something happens, it's just a stomach or something, but this beauty doesn't know how many pairs of eyes are staring at her, how many people wish that something would happen to her, Zeng Rong doesn't want to be a knife in someone else's hand.
"Well, what good food can they make? It's either fish or meat all day long, greasy and greasy, who loves to eat it? Yu Bing pouted.
This is true, Zeng Rong remembered the emperor's table of meat dishes, as well as Zhu Hengna, the same, it is not that there are no vegetarian dishes, such as tofu, radish, bean sprouts, shiitake mushrooms, winter bamboo shoots, etc., but most of these vegetarian dishes are matched with meat dishes, pure green leaf green vegetables Zeng Rong has only seen spinach, leeks and cabbage, no wonder the other party will not adapt.
"Qi Yu Niangniang, I was an embroidery girl in the Shanggong Bureau before, but it is rare to smell a little meat for half a month, and our current dishes are only one meat and one vegetable, the so-called meat, that is, you can smell some meat, so if you don't want to eat too greasy, you might as well tell the people in the Catering Bureau directly, let them make the vegetarian dishes more exquisite, and the extra meat dishes reward them as hard work, there should be someone willing, right?"
After speaking, Zeng Rong realized that she might be nosy, after all, she had just come, and she didn't know anything about the rules of the Shangshi Bureau, so she didn't wait for the other party to respond, and said busily: "I'm sorry, back to Niangniang, Xia Guan has just arrived, and I don't know the rules here, Niangniang might as well ask someone else." ”
Yu Bing bit her mouth slightly, and was just about to speak, when a palace maid came out of the house, saying that the sun was a little sunny, and she was afraid of heat stroke, so she invited Yu Meiren into the house.
Zeng Rong breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and hurriedly bowed down to leave.
Seeing that Zeng Rong was about to turn around and leave, Yu Bing hurriedly said to keep her, "Wait." ”
Zeng Rong stood still, waiting for the next sentence, only to see Yu Bing's face slowly reddening, bowing his head, and lowering his eyes.
Zeng Rong saw that the roots of her ears were also red, as if there was something embarrassing, thought about it, and said softly: "If Niangniang has something to order, if the official is within the scope of his ability, he should do his best." ”
"It's not difficult, it's just that I just want to ask, can you often see the emperor?" Yu Bing plucked up the courage to ask.
"Hui Niangniang, the lower officials can only see the emperor when the emperor announces the imperial doctor, yesterday afternoon, the emperor committed a headache, and the imperial doctor was declared to do acupuncture, and the lower officials don't know if they are okay today."
Zeng Rong saw that the other party wanted to see the emperor, she couldn't help with this favor, and she didn't dare to help, but she was surprised that with the emperor's favor for the imperial concubine, Yaohua Palace should be the place where he came most diligently, could it be that this charming new favorite became an old man so quickly?
"Oh." Yu Bing replied in disappointment, but at this moment, another breeze blew, and a few pieces of fallen Ying flew in front of him, only to see this poppy raise his head, staring at the red flowers on the trees above his head, and sighed almost inaudibly.
"Niangniang, please relax your heart, flowers bloom and fall sometimes, there is no need to be sad for them."
"What I am sad about is not flowers, but people, flowers are similar every year, but people are different every year, Shaohua is fleeting, and the most beautiful time for women is only a few years." Yu Bing said with red eyes, a pair of smart almond eyes misty.
"Hui Niangniang, it is precisely because Shaohua is easy to pass away that women should cherish themselves more and treat themselves well."
"That's really good, this palace really didn't find the wrong person, no wonder the emperor will send you to enlighten the queen mother, we have been in charge of things really cleverly, and we will comfort people." Tong Yao came in with five or six people.
Zeng Rong fixed his eyes and saw that in addition to the imperial concubine, there was also a concubine, this concubine was the biological mother of the fifth prince, I remember Qin Chuxue said that the fifth prince Zhu Min is thirteen years old, and he is the first prince who survived after Zhu Wu, and after the five princes, there has been no prince born in the harem for five or six years, so it can be seen that this concubine is not a simple person.
Zeng Rong and this concubine had a two-sided relationship, the first time was in Cining Palace, it was the time when the Queen Mother wanted to give her peony flowers and gold ornaments, at that time Zeng Rong only felt that there were a bunch of concubines in a mess, and he didn't dare to raise his head, the second time was in the side hall of Kunning Palace, it was the last round of assessment of female officials, and the imperial concubine specially brought the four concubines over to make trouble, Zeng Rong screened out the identities of the four concubines according to the order of entry and the seats of the four concubines, and also remembered the four faces.
But he only remembered a rough idea, but because of Zhu Min's relationship, Zeng Rong paid special attention to this concubine.
In terms of age, this concubine is also thirty years away, which is not young; In terms of appearance, it is only a middle-class posture, not to mention the beauty of the poppy, even the queen and the imperial concubine can't be compared; In terms of stature, he is tall and slightly fat; In terms of character, this Zeng Rong has never been in contact with it, and he does not dare to discuss it.
But there is one thing, this woman loves to laugh, single eyelids, thin and long eyebrows, a smile, no eyebrows, very friendly, as for what is behind this smile, Zeng Rong is not easy to discuss.
"I've seen the imperial concubine, I've seen Concubine De, the lower official is saying goodbye to Yu Niangniang, but it just so happened that the two maidens came, and the lower official of the province ran errands." Zeng Rong curtsied and saluted the two.
"Don't go, it's rare that Concubine De came to visit Yu Meiren today, and I was happy to hear that you were here, saying that I wanted to know you for a long time." Tong Yao said with a smile.
"Yes, I've wanted to know Zeng in charge for a long time, but I haven't had the chance." After speaking, Concubine De turned to Yu Bing with a smile, stretched out her hand, and a palace maid behind her hurriedly handed over a cardboard box about one foot long, about half a foot wide, and about two inches high.
"Sister Yu, this is a few small dried fruits from the south that I asked someone to find, which have a certain effect on morning sickness, you can try it."
Yu Bing hurriedly thanked him when he heard this, took it with both hands, held it in person, and invited everyone to come in.
Zeng Rong didn't want to enter, but she couldn't help but retreat, the imperial concubine and Concubine De both spoke, how did she go?
