Chapter 023: Is It the Same Person?
There is no need to ask for the name, just looking at it as a light dream, she is already sure that these are the foods specially prepared for her, fried steak, creamy mushroom soup!
Why, because steak is really a beef "steak"! Evenly cut the beef ribs and bring the bones up.
Look at the bowl of cream mushroom soup, the milk is right, it is estimated to be goat's milk, the smell can be smelled from afar, and the oil inside, it is a thick layer of chicken fat, and the stewed inside is pure natural wild mountain mushrooms!
Yimo swallowed and smeared it in the back, and the corners of his mouth were about to twitch, shocked.
Pan Rongxi looked at the expressions of the two of them, and thought to himself, he must have made a mistake.
Xiao Yiheng looked at her and wanted to wait for her to move his chopsticks, as if those people in the Beining Kingdom in the hall had nothing to do with him at all, and the purpose of today was just to serve him as the queen.
For a moment, Mengqing felt that he had become the target of everyone, and all eyes were staring at him.
She picked up the chopsticks, added a piece of beef "chop", and gently put it on Xiao Yiheng's plate, "Your Majesty, try it." "If she doesn't let him try the poison, how dare she eat it.
In fact, she was really hungry, since she stopped having morning sickness, she had to eat something almost every hour, and it took nearly an hour just to change her hair and clothes before she came, and the banquet went on for nearly an hour, and she was really hungry at this time.
Catching a glimpse of the people waiting for her to reply, her eyes turned to the right: "Can the prince be satisfied with this family matter?" "The question is finally thrown.
The ministers pricked up their ears and listened, King An Ning repeatedly made an exception for the queen mother today, and saw what she would say this time.
"Doesn't the queen also think that this king is only worth three hundred and fifty animals?"
Dream blocked her heart with a light breath, and even threw the problem to her again, it must have been deliberate!
She was silent, wanting to wait for the man next to her to speak, the marriage between the two countries is still a state affair in the final analysis, and she really dare not forget the fact that the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics.
Xiao Yiheng savored the pork ribs she sandwiched for herself, the taste was a little special, but it was delicious.
At this time, it is indeed time for him, the emperor, to speak, but he wants to wait for this little woman to ask him for help, so that she can be as flamboyant as she was in the harem, and today she has to grind her piercing little paws.
Dozens of pairs of eyes looked at herself, even if Mengqing had no more determination, she couldn't wait, since this was the case, don't blame her: "Princess Nishang, you have also listened, your country's dowry King An Ning is very dissatisfied, if the princess is really sincere to marry, then this dowry should not be increased tenfold!" ”
Xiao Yiheng almost got stuck in his throat with a mouthful of beef "chops", and looked back at this little woman with a rebellious face, unable to cry or laugh in his eyes.
This banquet was originally intended to take the opportunity to make things difficult for the Bac Ninh Kingdom, whether the marriage was withdrawn or not, they had to be stripped of their skin, and they originally planned to ask him for two hundred war horses, but he didn't want her to increase it tenfold as soon as she opened her mouth, wouldn't it make him love it.
Qu Nishang never expected this beautiful queen mother to say: "Queen mother, are you sure what you said is not wrong?" That's five hundred horses! "Cattle and sheep are not counted, even if you can get 3,000 cattle and sheep, my father will never allow 500 war horses to be given away for nothing.
can think of the king of tranquility who descended from the immortals, how can she let go of it in her heart, in this life, she is married!
"Wrong! Princess Nishang is afraid that she has miscalculated, and the queen mother said that it will be increased tenfold, that is, five hundred and fifty good horses, three thousand three hundred cattle and sheep. ”
The person who spoke was a man in a scarlet official uniform, the same age as the Marquis of Zhongyong, and his gentle appearance made Meng Qing recognize it at once, this was Concubine Hui's father, Yan Shilang.
Yan Shilang came to the center of the hall and looked upwards from a distance, "The queen is very smart, and she is really not idle." ”
Meng smiled faintly: "Lord Yan is polite." "I know that he is thanking for the embezzlement case.
Originally, Yan Shilang didn't know why King An Ning would intervene in the corruption case, but he saw King An Ning repeatedly making exceptions for him, and he understood the reason, and it seemed that his daughter was relied on in the palace.
Qu Nishang knew that she was in trouble, so she could only look at her brother at the moment, waiting for him to stand up for her.
Qu Cunbei is no longer happy at this moment, and it is impossible to turn his face with Emperor Daliang, so he can only hold his forehead and pretend to be overwhelmed with wine: "No wonder Daliang drinks in small cups, I think the wine of Daliang is too mellow, and it is easier to be intoxicated. ”
Xiao Yiheng put down his chopsticks, wiped his mouth, and then said: "In this case, I will let people send His Royal Highness back to the post house, but His Royal Highness must remember next time that you should drink in a small cup to avoid mistakes." ”
"What Your Majesty said is that I will retire first."
Qu Cunbei gave his sister a slap in the eye and took her away.
Qingqing was lying on the table, her body was about the same color as the bowl, but it knew that the master could see it, but after so long, the master ignored her, and she must have been angry.
"Squeak-"
It croaked twice, wagging its little tail and leaning its head against Mengqing's hand.
Dream dodged lightly, and it almost fell off the table, its little eyes extremely sad.
Xiao Yiheng looked over in surprise: "What is this?" ”
"The emperor doesn't know?" Dream chuckled and looked at him.
Xiao Yiheng thought that this little woman was giving herself a problem: "If I knew, I would ask you." "The pace of words is spoiled.
Mengqing was aroused by his words and had goosebumps, "The concubine is pregnant, and she is not feeling well, so she will go back first." ”
"I'll send you." Xiao Yiheng also got up.
"No need, the concubine can't afford it."
If Xiao Yiheng couldn't hear the alienated sarcasm in her tone anymore, the emperor was in vain, and instructed Yimo behind him: "Serve the queen well, if there is anything but mistakes, I will ask you." ”
"The slave obeys."
The fire in Mengqing's heart rose and pulled Yimo away.
Qingqing saw that she was really dropped, and jumped off the table with a whoosh, and the little short legs easily caught the corner of Jin Feng Xiangfei's clothes, and the poor one was dragged on the ground by the hem of the clothes and almost rolled her eyes.
It was only Mengqing who walked out not far before a threatening voice came from behind him, instantly slamming the scorching summer into the North Pole, which had been frozen for thousands of years.
"Queen Mother!"
Meng turned his head lightly and looked at the mask, his eyes full of sarcasm: "Is there something wrong with the prince?" ”
Qingqing climbed to Mengqing's lower back, feeling that the tone of the two seemed to be very unfriendly, he instantly retracted his little paws that climbed forward, and quickly took a few steps back to the safest place.
"The reason why this king interfered in the corruption case is just to exchange personal favors with the mother, and ask the queen to stay away from Allure from now on!"
Mengqing couldn't laugh this time: "You came to me by yourself and told me to stay away from you?" Could it be that if you don't walk around the pit and get smoked by the smell, you have to blame the pit for not digging the right place? ”
"If the queen mother compares herself to the pit, the king can't help it, but that's all, if the queen mother provokes the city again, don't blame the king for being ruthless!"
A blood-red flash flashed from his eyes, ruthless and cruel without concealment, like a basin full of poison, making Meng Qing shudder uncontrollably.
She turned around and looked for it quickly, and finally caught Qingqing at the hem and handed it to the man in front of her: "Return it to the prince, by the way, this palace still disdains to be boring." ”
Qingqing's eyes widened, it hadn't grown up yet, and it felt like the end was coming.
King An Ning didn't answer, "It's not mine, remember your words, otherwise, how can this king save the Meng family, and also let the Meng family be destroyed in the same way!" ”
"You dare!" Dream roars lightly.
King Anning did not reply, and walked past her with his head held high.
Meng Qing couldn't swallow this breath in his heart, and quickly chased after him, "The prince keeps calling the queen mother of this palace, don't you forget that this palace is your imperial sister-in-law, call the imperial sister-in-law to listen!" ”
The eldest sister-in-law is like a mother, as long as he calls, she will teach him a lesson with confidence.
King An Ning glanced at her, contemptuous, insignificant, "You...... Not qualified enough! ”
Mengqing is not angry, he is really not angry, he just wants to smash the plum pile pot.
But she lifted it for a long time, and in the end it didn't fall, although the bottom trough was given by him, but the pot was made by her hard work day and night, why waste her own results!
He acted so well, if he hadn't seen her with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed that someone would have cried in the face of her, and he would be bloodthirsty and ruthless in the blink of an eye!
But Yimo muttered something that shocked her.
"I can't imagine that King An Ning looks so similar to Gongzi, if it weren't for the different temperament, the slave would almost be a person."
What the? Dream looks down on the past, they are simply the same person!
Yimo muttered with admiration on his face: "King An Ning has always been wearing a mask, if it weren't for Qingqing making trouble tonight, the slave maid may not be able to witness King An Ning in this life." ”
"That prince is simply the King of Tranquility with a mask." What a logic in the brain.
Meng Qing reinstalled the plum pile pot and wanted to give it to him...... I still gave it to him when I turned around, as a thank you gift for his dedication to purple sand mud, and since then the two have been clear!
Yimo coughed, sent the two palace maids at the door out, came to the mother and whispered: "Of course not, the prince and the emperor...... Ahem...... Hmmm......"
Dream frowned lightly, her eyes widening in disbelief.
There is that kind of relationship between the emperor of Allure, she probably guessed a little, but if Allure looks like King Anning...... Doesn't it mean that the person the emperor really likes is King Anning at all!
She rubbed her heart, so vigorously careful.
Qingqing tilted her little head and screamed twice, her little paws grabbed Mengqing's dress that had not yet been changed and shook her head desperately.
Mengqing finally gave it a look: "Why don't you go to your master, why are you still here?" ”
Qingqing blinked her sad little eyes, swished and climbed onto the top of Mengqing's head, and her little tail pouted, burying it directly in her hair and not coming out.
Dream light doesn't really mind, anyway, she has passed, he doesn't want it, but the two are really not the same person? If so, it seems that her temper is very unreasonable.
Xiao Peizi suddenly shouted outside: "Concubine Hui and Concubine Jing ask to see." ”
Meng Qing straightened her clothes and sat down in the main hall.
Concubine Hui Jing entered the house accompanied by the maids, and the two weak willow bodies bowed to each other: "The concubine sees the queen's mother, and the mother is blessed with Jin'an." ”
"Get up, sit down."
"Thank you, Queen Mother."
The two got up, but they were not in a hurry to sit down, Concubine Hui took a brocade quilt from the maid behind her, and the glow-colored bottom was embroidered with lotus flowers, and there were a few lotus flowers on it.
"The concubine knows that Niangniang doesn't like to be disturbed, and she didn't dare to come to Niangniang here to thank her after the ban was lifted that day, and I hope Niangniang will forgive me, these few days the concubine embroidered this bed of lotus seed quilt, our Daliang country has a saying, lotus seeds are also through the son of pity, Niangniang is now pregnant, which happens to be appropriate." Personally deliver the quilt to Yi Mo.
Meng glanced at the thin stitches on it, the flowers and petals were all carefully embroidered, it was only a few days of hard work, she was able to complete such a quilt, and it was considered hard.
"Concubine Hui is polite, this palace likes it very much."
I've seen these concubines before, but it's the first time to look at Concubine Hui, she looks very beautiful, it's the kind that is soft and gentle, and the coupling-colored clothes are embroidered with a few spring begonias, which are not outstanding or inferior, and they are always not in a hurry to speak, this word "Hui" is really appropriate.
Seeing that the queen mother looked at it several times, she finally let go of her nervousness and sat on the chair next to her.
Concubine Jing took a soft pillow from the maid's hand, slender and long, embroidered with a dragon and a phoenix: "The concubine is not as skillful as Concubine Hui, and the needlework is also very rough, so she can only embroider a soft pillow, so that the emperor and the queen can sleep at ease." ”
She sent the soft pillow in person, and Meng Qing thought that it was not heavy and took it by herself, but as soon as she got it, the quiet aroma came into her nose, but Meng Qing's heart was suddenly shocked!
This scent...... It's familiar.
