Chapter 149: Cake

The man deliberately lowered his voice, and Mo Ying could only hear it intermittently, and the sound became farther and farther away with the footsteps until there was no more sound.

"Little master......" Liniang whispered.

Mo Ying glanced at her and continued to walk forward, thinking about the words of the two women just now.

When it came to Jingzhai, Xiaohong fetched a basin of hot water, Liniang helped scrub it, and Mo Ying asked, "By the way, why haven't you seen Sister Yueshan's maiden family at several palace banquets this time?" ”

Li Niang's hand paused, looked at Xiaohong who was cleaning up the table in the outhouse, and said, "Xiaohong, the little master didn't eat anything at night, you go to the dining room to see if there is anything to digest!" ”

After Xiaohong went out, Li Niang said in a low voice: "Little master doesn't know, our lady concubine Niangniang had an unpleasant quarrel with the family at the beginning, and King Changxing was clamoring to drive her out of the house, which was a big trouble!" ”

"Huh?" Mo Ying really didn't know about this.

Li Niang looked at the outside room carefully, approached Mo Ying and said, "I heard that the eldest prince was conceived outside the palace!" ”

Mo Ying is clear! This is the legendary first boarding and later paying ticket!

"That's not right, after all, aren't the emperor and Sister Yueshan cousins? This can't be together! ”

"King Changxing's grandfather was a child in the palace called Mei Guifei at that time, the emperor at that time, that is, the grandfather of the emperor now, doted on Mei Guifei, but it was much older than Mei Guifei, Mei Guifei had no children, so she was allowed to raise one from her mother's family, and later she was also knighted, these generations have been handed down, although the title is also hereditary, but it is also an idle prince, one generation is not as good as the generation!"

"That's it!" Mo Ying nodded, "Then the voice we just heard in the garden is from the Changxing Palace!" Why don't you hide there at the banquet? ”

"Changxing Wangfu has a title, but there is no one in the court, and those who have the throne can't look down on them, the original Mei Guifei is the daughter of a deputy general, and their family is now relying on Changxing Wangfu to make a living."

Speaking of which, what else does Mo Ying not understand? said that it was not worth it, but in fact it was not qualified.

Mo Ying then remembered that there was a concubine in the harem who was a distant relative of Concubine Shu, so it seems that the concubine has something to do with that Concubine Mei, and this is also related to Concubine Shu, what is the name of that concubine? Concubine Min? Once in the garden was also embarrassed for the original owner, the concubine helped the original owner to speak, but the original owner did not admit it, and then the concubine slowly moved away from the original owner, speaking of which the concubine was the original owner after entering the palace, the only one who had no purpose to help her, but unfortunately, the original owner thought too much at the beginning, and did not realize the good of the concubine.

"What is the little lord going to tell Concubine Shu about tonight?" Li Niang asked.

"What do you think?" Mo Ying asked rhetorically.

"The slave doesn't know, according to the relationship between the little master and the concubine, we should mention a thing or two, but we haven't heard anything, even if the concubine asks them to ask for the guilt, there is no evidence, after all, I haven't even seen anyone!"

This was to tell her not to say it to Concubine Shu.

"What you said has some truth, but I also said it just now, now the Changxing Mansion is a broken house, if Sister Yueshan wants to promote them, she will not fall into this step, but she scolded twice, and if you have the ability, can you hide and say that? We can't reach the Changxing Palace, and we don't care about it, so let's ask Anshun to secretly inquire about Concubine Shu, and see who she has befriended recently, and the people outside can't reach in, so they can't make sure that there is anything in the palace! ”

Li Niang nodded, "The slave knows and will explain Anshun." ”

Mo Ying nodded, and took off the jewelry on her head little by little, the purity of the mirror here is not very good, it makes people dizzy, she still can't get used to it after coming for so long.

"Little master, this is Princess Mujing's birthday, more than half of the people in the big kitchen have been transferred to be in charge of the banquet, and the rest are newly brought out, I'm afraid that the little master won't be used to eating, so I cooked a bowl of noodles myself, and the little master made do with it?" Xiaohong came back with a food box and said.

In fact, Mo Ying is not hungry, but when Xiaohong said this, she was embarrassed to say that she would not eat, "Actually, I was hungry too, just eat some casually." ”

Mo Ying sat down at the table, there was a small plate of pastry next to the noodles, I don't know what was inside, and a layer of meat floss was wrapped on the outside.

"You did that too?"

"No," Xiaohong's expression was a little unnatural, "This is Mu Jinggong's main ......"

"You robbed the princess of her things?" Mo Ying's hand was paused, and his voice also increased a few points.

"No, no," Xiaohong hurriedly shook her head, "It was Princess Mujing who ordered the dining room to do it a few days ago, and the dining room made this kind of pastry for the first time, and made a lot of it, after the princess ate, I heard that there was still a dining room, so I asked Leshu for another time, and it happened that the slave maid went to the dining room, and Leshu saw it, so he divided half of the slave maid, and the slave maid had never seen this food, thinking that Princess Mujing liked it, it must be good, so ...... I took ......."

Here Xiaohong nervously grabbed the corner of her clothes, and Mo Ying breathed a sigh of relief, this has just eased the relationship with the princess, this is her birthday, if she robs something, she is really shameless!

Seeing this, Li Niang thought that Xiaohong was also kind, "Since Princess Mujing likes it, why don't you try it too?" ”

Mo Ying picked up and tasted it, the taste was really good, the inside was soft, and it was chewed with meat floss, which was a bit of a modern meat floss shellfish.

"It tastes good," seeing Xiaohong and Liniang breathing a sigh of relief, Mo Ying couldn't help but laugh, "You two are too exaggerated, just take it, and it's not a robbery, I can still scold you for not doing it." ”

"The slave just thinks we're at peace...... Princess Mujing isn't too familiar with it......" Xiaohong said embarrassedly.

"Didn't you say it, someone sent it, and besides, we and the princess have been at peace recently, since they sent it, we have to take it, if you don't accept it today, I have to scold you!"

Mo Ying already likes to eat sweet, and she eats one in two or three bites, "If we have time, let's find a dining room to make some, it tastes really good, I'll eat one more, there are two left, you two can taste it too!" ”

"The little master has always been picky, not only does the little master like it, but the slave also tastes it."

Li Niang took one first, and Xiaohong followed closely and took the last one away.

When the two of them tasted it, they were full of praise.

"I heard that this is the method that Princess Mujing thought of, what is it called a cake, and she also divided the candle into small ones, and inserted it on it to say that it was a wish......"

Hearing this, Mo Ying's hand was stunned, and half of the pastry in his hand almost fell off.

"Cake?" Mo Ying looked at Xiaohong in disbelief and asked.

Red nodded.

At this time, Li Niang remembered that when the little lord had his last birthday, he also said that he wanted to make a cake, and later he was invited by the emperor to Qingfeng Garden, and there was no follow-up to the cake.

"I remember, you haven't heard of cake before!" Mo Ying tried to be as natural as possible, but her voice was already a little shaky.

Li Niang and Xiaohong glanced at each other and nodded inexplicably.

Mo Ying took a deep breath and said, "Withdraw!" I'm not hungry anymore! ”

Li Niang and Xiao Hong looked at each other, and saw that Mo Ying was still holding half a cake in her hand and entered the study, Xiao Hong wanted to remind her, Li Niang hurriedly stopped, pulled her to pack her things and went out.
