CHAPTER XXI
In the early morning, the sun is shining, and the snow is melting with a cold wind.
"Hey, my lips hurt so much!" After Mocha woke up, he felt the pain in his mouth.
Shui Yue hurriedly came in when she heard Mo Cha, and saw Mo Cha's somewhat red and swollen cherry mouth: "It's already winter, why are there still insects, it's out of the sun today, the slave maid will change the cotton wool into a new one, and take these out to bask in the sun." ”
Mo Cha heard that her mouth might have been bitten by insects, and her whole body was itchy: "Shui Yue, prepare hot water quickly, I want to take a bath." ”
The water moon should retreat.
Ink tea flashed into the space, rummaged in the supermarket for a long time, and finally found the mite spray, while Shui Yue and others were outside the door, they hurriedly sprayed a few times, the taste was still relatively fresh, and I was relieved.
Litang Palace.
After the emperor went to the early court, the noble concubine got up and her whole face was dark.
All the attendants fell to their knees, silent.
"If it weren't for the multiple hearts of the palace yesterday, it would have been the palace that fell!" Concubine Gao said in a hoarse voice.
"Hui Niangniang, the slave maid has found out about the matter yesterday, it should be done by Weiyang Palace." The palace maid standing on the side said in the ear of the noble concubine.
"Weiyang Palace, of course this palace knows, who else is so anxious besides her."
"I was a step too late, and I didn't find the murderer."
"In this deep palace, where else can people go?"
The noble concubine said casually, but the palace people who knelt on the ground felt cold, and they were like mustard.
"You must focus on Weiyang Palace, and you don't have to stay in this Litang Palace next time."
"Slave maid received."
"Oh, how about what Zhenjieyu?" The noble concubine seemed to be thinking about something.
"Back to Niangniang, after the emperor came to our palace yesterday, I waited for a long time in Zhenshao Palace, and I didn't find out that the emperor had changed his route until late at night." The palace maid said with some flattery.
"Hmph, a little barbarian daughter, if she still wants to gain the emperor's favor, it depends on the permission of this palace."
When everyone heard the concubine say so proudly, they didn't dare to say anything, they just agreed.
This side of Mingyu Palace.
After Mocha bathed again, she got dressed and was about to go to find Wang Meiren, but Shui Yue came over and whispered in her ear.
With a coldness in her eyes, Mo Cha sneered.
"Concubine, how is this good?" Mizuki was a little anxious.
"You keep an eye on it carefully, and if there is really a ghost over there in the Qinglan Palace, catch him." Mocha's usually soft and glutinous little milk voice is also a little sharp at this time.
Shui Yue retreated.
Mo Cha's good mood for a day was ruined, she didn't want to participate in anything, but it seemed that she was deeply involved in the harem, how could this Yun Concubine with the help of the system bring her down?
Mocha has been thinking quietly.
……
After thinking about it for a long time, Mocha was still ready to catch the thief and catch the dirty, get the evidence first, and then be able to take down Concubine Yun in one fell swoop.
After breakfast, Mocha was about to get dressed and go to find Wang Meiren, but Wang Meiren had already come first.
"Why did you get up so early today?" Wang Meiren teased and quipped.
Ink tea's pearl-like face was slowly dyed pink.
"Sister Wang~" Mo Cha embarrassedly pulled Wang Meiren's sleeve and coquettishly.
"Okay, okay, don't make fun of you!"
"I also said that I asked my sister to go out to play, but when the sun is out, the snow melts and it is a little cold, so it is better to nest in the palace?" Mo Cha said helplessly.
"What does Cha Cha do on weekdays?" Wang Meiren asked curiously.
Hearing Wang Meiren ask this, Mocha said arrogantly: "Sister Wang, you don't know what good things I have made!" ”
Wang Meiren also followed her and said, "Oh, what kind of good thing? ”
Then Mo Cha went to the dresser and brought a delicate porcelain jar.
"What is this?" Wang Meiren was a little puzzled.
While helping Wang Meiren explain, Mocha opened the porcelain jar and deducted a ball from it.
"This is Chacha Secret Hand Cream, as the name suggests, it is to protect our hands and hands!"
"Hand cream?"
"That's right, I made five cans, wait a moment for you to take one can to use, moisturizing and not dry or greasy, I did it many times before I succeeded."
Wang Meiren also tried it, kneading it gently, and slowly saw that it was delicate and smooth, and it was fragrant.
"What kind of scent is this? If it is not rich, it is also eye-catching. ”
Mocha also replied one by one: "This is plum blossom flavored, I added mint flavor to it, and the taste is cool." ”
Wang Meiren had a doting look on her face: "Cha Cha is really a little prodigy, she can do anything." After speaking, he pinched Mocha's face with his hand.
Mocha's small eyes bent into an arc, and the painting style turned to eating.
Suddenly, as if thinking about something, Mocha hurriedly called Shui Hua and others.
"It's Laba today?"
"Back to your concubine, it's Laba Festival." Water painting back.
"Is that Laba porridge?" Mo Cha thought that he had not eaten Laba porridge here, and asked.
"Back to the noble concubine, I was supposed to eat Laba porridge, but because the nobles in the palace didn't like to eat Laba porridge before, I slowly stopped cooking Laba porridge." The water painting answered truthfully.
Wang Meiren thought it was ink tea and wanted to eat: "If you want to eat tea, ask the imperial dining room to cook some." ”
"So that's the case, then you go and prepare the ingredients for making Laba porridge, and I'll cook it myself." Mocha commanded.
Shui Hua and the others went down to prepare the ingredients.
"Isn't Laba porridge all the same flavor?" Wang Meiren asked puzzled.
"It's different, tea and tea must be a high-quality product!" Mocha boasted.
"Okay, well, then I'm going to have a good taste of what Chacha's fine laba porridge looks like." Wang Meiren looked at Mocha with a smug look on her face, and waited expectantly.
……
Mo Cha and Wang Meiren came to the small kitchen and saw that the materials of Laba porridge were pitiful.
"That's all?" Mocha pointed to the stove: rice, millet, barley, and red dates.
"Back to your concubine, Laba porridge only has these materials!" The water painting replied.
I see, Mocha realized that they said that Laba porridge was not tired of drinking, it turned out that there were too few ingredients.
"Water painting, then prepare some lotus seeds, peanuts, longan, chestnuts, hazelnuts and raisins, red beans, mung beans, soybeans, black beans, kidney beans, almost enough."
"So much material?" Wang Meiren was a little surprised.
"That's right, Laba porridge, also known as Qibao five-flavor porridge, the ingredients are rich."
After a while, all the ingredients were ready, and Mo Cha rolled up his sleeves to make laba porridge.
As it slowly cooks, the sweet flavor of the porridge fills the kitchen.
"It's finally good, water painting, bring the bowl, this is for the emperor, you send it, and this is Her Royal Highness the eldest princess." The ink tea was pretended to the emperor and the eldest princess and asked the water painting to be sent over.
The water painting smelled the rich fragrance, and the eyes looked at the ink tea pitifully.
"Tell the water beads to keep them for you, go quickly, it won't taste good when it's cold."
Another bowl was served to Wang Meiren.
"Well, the taste is better than that made in the imperial dining room, there are many ingredients in it, and every bite is different." Wang Meiren tasted the first bite and was amazed.
Mo Cha also took a big bite, his small mouth was bulging, and his eyes were smiling.
The Imperial Study.
Gonggong An was waiting outside the door early, as for what he was waiting for, it was not the result of Dark Wu hinting at Emperor Ming Xuan in advance.
Seeing the water painting from afar, Grandpa An went to pick it up.
The water painting is a little strange, how can this father-in-law An look like he knew he would come over.
"Go back quickly! Remember to tell Concubine Chun that His Majesty likes it very much. Grandpa An saw the water painting and urged with a stunned appearance.
Only then did the water painting react, and he turned around and returned to the Mingyu Palace.
"Your Majesty, this is Laba porridge made by Concubine Chun herself." Gonggong An said to Emperor Xuan of Ming after entering.
Emperor Xuan of the Ming Dynasty seemed indifferent, but in fact, he hadn't flipped through the books for a long time, and his eyes had been distracted looking at the laba porridge brought by Gonggong An.
"Since it was made by Concubine Chun herself, then I will taste it, and you will send the eldest princess's order to the eldest princess's mansion." Emperor Xuan of Ming said while drinking porridge.
The taste is sweet and delicious, suitable for my taste, this tea tea is really a little clever, thinking so, Emperor Ming Xuan recalled the scene last night, the tips of his ears were filled with redness, and he drank two sips of porridge in succession.
"The taste is soft and glutinous and sweet, different ingredients have different feelings, sweet but not greasy, good!" Emperor Ming Xuan commented after drinking.
Poor Father-in-law An smelled the fragrance, and his saliva couldn't help swallowing, long live Lord, you can drink it, and make comments, so that the old slave also wants to drink!
