Chapter 9: She and Her Imperial Grandmother
Qin Yuanxi's explanation made Qin Lingyue breathe a sigh of relief in her heart, and she almost doubted that there was any plan for a book on the tea table.
Now it seems that the eldest sister should not have read it, otherwise she would not see herself as usual today.
"That's right, I just saw an interesting story, sister, can you lend me this book?" Qin Lingyue explored.
"This ......, I'm afraid not, this is a history book, although it is a copy, but it is also a precious thing, I recorded it in the Wensi Academy yesterday, and I will return it in person tomorrow." Qin Yuanxi's face was a little embarrassed.
"That's it, forget it."
Qin Lingyue nodded in disappointment, but she was anxious in her heart, she knew that if the record was known by the eldest sister, it would cause some trouble.
Thinking about it, her eyes fell on the plate of cut apples on the table again, and Qin Lingyue was overjoyed.
She handed the plate to Qin Yuanxi and made a gesture to get up, "Eldest sister, I won't eat this fruit, I will leave immediately if I think of some urgent matters." ”
"Really?" Qin Yuanxi frowned, and nodded slightly in accordance with her thoughts, "Then I'll take it back." ”
"Well, you can bring it in!"
Qin Lingyue had already gotten up, but she still pretended to be attracted by the book in her hand, rummaging around at will.
After Qin Yuanxi left, she glanced at the maids around her a few times, quickly tore off a page of records and rubbed it in the palm of her hand.
"Wan Zhu, let's go."
Without waiting to say goodbye, Qin Lingyue hurried out of the palace gate, and Wan Zhu followed.
Standing in the sun, she stretched out her hand to block the light above her head, and she didn't pay attention to whether Wan Zhu was keeping up, and her blood-red and moist lips were bitten by her teeth.
The summer outside the palace seems to be a little hotter than when I came before.
……
Qin Yuanxi returned to the main hall again, and there was an extra plate of soybean candy in his hand, which happened to be the rest of the morning.
"She's gone?" Qin Yuanxi slowly walked to the table and asked knowingly.
Ziyun lowered her eyes, "Back to the master, the three county lords are gone." ”
Looking down, Qin Yuanxi rummaged through the books on the table a few more times, and sure enough, the page had been torn off.
At this time, the things that should be busy have been done, and the things that should be confessed have been confessed, and she didn't bother to care, so she sat on the chair and returned her mind to the soybean candy in front of her.
There are five of these sugars.
Qin Yuanxi originally just said it casually, but now there is a problem again.
She wanted to send it to her grandmother, but her own concubine shouldn't give it.
Three two points, three unlucky, two well......
Forty-one points, the same way, besides, it would be too shabby to give a piece.
This is also fortunate that her father does not eat sweets, and her grandfather is not away from the war.
It's good that her imperial grandmother has good teeth, otherwise she wouldn't have to worry about this.
Qin Yuanxi furrowed his eyebrows, and his face became more and more uncomfortable.
"Ziyun, tell me, should I send some to my mother?"
Ziyun glanced at her master helplessly, and sighed: "Master, neither the princess nor the prince are masters of desserts. ”
"Okay then," Qin Yuanxi also seemed to have made a decision, and put a few pieces into a paper bag in one go, and was about to go outside the hall when he picked them up.
Passing by Ziyin's side, Qin Yuanxi remembered something, and then spoke to Ziyun behind him, "You go and see my third sister's movements, and tell me when the time comes." Ziyin, you follow me to Zichen Palace. ”
Ziyun already knew the arrangement for her errands, and she should take the lead out of the palace.
Zichen Hall is the place where Emperor Yuanqing governs, Qin Yuanxi does not come every day, and he doesn't even have to report at the door, leaving Ziyin to enter the palace alone.
There is a woman dressed in a black dragon gon in the innermost part of the main hall, who is Qin Yuanxi's grandmother, Emperor Yuanqing of Daning himself, who is now seventy out of fifty.
Emperor Yuanqing's appearance is ordinary, but it shows that he is young from his age, and his kindness looks like he is full of thirty years, which makes everyone who sees it admire and admire.
When Qin Yuanxi walked beside Emperor Yuanqing and sat down, Emperor Yuanqing also took the government affairs in his hand at the same time.
"Grandmother, Xi'er brought you something delicious today."
Qin Yuanxi put the paper bag in his hand on the table, and his hands naturally wrapped his hands around Emperor Yuanqing's arms.
The voice was soft, especially for children of seven or eight years old, and they did not see the usual cold and fierce color at all.
"Oh? Xi'er didn't see anyone in the morning, could it be that she was preparing food for me? ”
Emperor Yuanqing did not rush to open the paper bag in front of the table, but was quite surprised that he did not see the eldest granddaughter in the morning.
Qin Yuanxi was close to his grandmother, and when he heard this, he was immediately a little annoyed, "It's not, Xi'er just went to Wensi Academy until late at night yesterday and came back late, so she got up late in the morning." ”
Speaking of this, she looked at her grandmother obediently, "Grandmother can't blame Xi'er, Xi'er won't be in the future." ”
"You little girl is good," Emperor Yuanqing's eyes were full of love, and he reached out to touch Qin Yuanxi's head, "It's naturally a good thing to be diligent, how can I blame you for being lazy occasionally,"
Qin Yuanxi blinked his flattering pair of Ruifeng eyes and took the paper bag from the table.
"Grandmother, didn't you talk about soybean candy before, this is what Xi'er figured out the day before yesterday, can you taste it?"
"Okay, I'll try it."
As soon as he heard that his granddaughter had done it herself, Emperor Yuanqing suddenly became interested, took the paper bag and took out a piece of it in his hand to observe.
Looking at the lumpy candy shining golden in his hand, Emperor Yuanqing smiled and bowed his head repeatedly, "It looks good, I want to eat it." ”
"Well, grandmother try it quickly, if it doesn't taste good, I'll improve it later."
Anxious for his grandmother's evaluation, Qin Yuanxi's expectant eyes never moved away.
Under the urging, Emperor Yuanqing quickly took a small bite.
After being speechless for a long time, Qin Yuanxi looked at his grandmother and ate two bites again, and finally shook Emperor Yuanqing's arm in a hurry, "Grandmother, how is it, can you tell me quickly?" ”
"Well, that's good." Emperor Yuanqing finally expressed his approval, and laughed peacefully, "Crispy and sweet, my Xi'er is really an all-rounder, it seems that I can invite my granddaughter to be the imperial chef for banquets in the future." ”
These words made Qin Yuanxi's heart sweet, and his vanity was greatly satisfied.
When she was a child, she knew that her grandmother was young and a first-class cook, and she didn't feel that the status of the cook was low.
She was busy and excitedly agreed, "Grandmother likes it, if it is Xi'er's honor to be a cook for grandmother, there are many more in this bag, grandmother keeps it to rest and eat." ”
Emperor Yuanqing finished eating the soybean candy in his hand, looked at the bag again, and wondered, "Xi'er doesn't eat it?" ”
"No, Xi'er ate a lot before," Qin Yuanxi touched his stomach.
Naturally, she was not a lie, and she did eat a few pieces when she made it.
"In this way, then I will have more filial piety." Emperor Yuanqing's smile did not decrease, but he also guessed in his heart that she was probably telling some lies.
Soon, the emperor began to deal with government affairs.
Qin Yuanxi was not in a hurry to leave, and still accompanied his grandmother.
I had nothing to do and secretly glanced at the recital after a few reviews, expressing my admiration for my grandmother.
Finally, she leaned against Emperor Yuanqing's side and gently stroked the sleeves of the black dragon robe with curiosity.
This black-dominated dragon gon is still embroidered with nine golden dragons, and there is an extra golden phoenix behind it.
There are sun, moon, birds and birds on the wide sleeves, and under the golden wire, the variety is still complex.
Leaning closer to his nose slightly, Qin Yuanxi vaguely smelled a light phantom fragrance, very light, but very different.
For some reason, this breath is obsessed with Yiran......
