At the same time that Qingwu recognized Lin Kite, Lin Kite also recognized that the head of the office who walked into the imperial dining room was Qingwu, the pavilion master's subordinate.

Looking at Qingwu who was getting closer and closer, Lin Yuan secretly wondered how her luck could be so bad, she finally managed to sneak into the palace, but she met two people who knew her in one day!

"Why are you here?" After recognizing Lin Kite, Qingwu walked straight towards her, Qingwu looked at her with a scrutinizing gaze, thinking of the chance encounter a few days ago, Qingwu had doubts about Lin Kite's appearance, she asked.

Lin Yuan knew very well in his heart that as the pavilion master's right-hand man, Qingwu was naturally not as easy to handle as the pavilion master's sister.

Therefore, Lin Kite heard the words but did not answer, she then waved the spatula in her hand, turned it a few times until the vegetables in the iron pot were cooked, she lowered her head and ordered the person on the stove to extinguish the fire, and then skillfully wiped the sweat beads on her forehead with the sleeve of her clothes, and then walked down from the stove.

"Lord Hui, some time ago, a large number of people were bought in the palace, and the slaves and maids happened to know some cooking skills, so they came to the palace to be a cook through the recommendation of the county master." Lin Yuan walked to Qingwu's side, saluted her respectfully, and then said unhurriedly.

"Oh, how did you end up on the outskirts of the city the other day?" Qingwu then asked, she saw Lin Yuan's series of movements in her eyes, Lin Yuan did seem to be a skillful cook, Qingwu's suspicions when she first saw Lin Yuan appear in the palace were dispelled a lot.

After all, who would take a cook as a threat?

"The slave was chased and killed by the enemy in his hometown, and took refuge all the way to the capital, and met what happened before on the road that day, the slave and maid couldn't bear to see the girl Xiang Xiaoyu die, so he came to the rescue, I didn't think that you were an errand in the palace, all this is too coincidental."

Lin Yuan told Qingwu what he had told the pavilion master's sister before.

"You have some kung fu in your hands as a cook." After listening to Lin Kite's answer, Qingwu remembered that day when Lin Kite repelled the landlord, so he continued to ask.

"My lord, you know, the slave is a cook, since she was a child, she learned cooking skills with the master, but the iron pot is heavy, and she can't pick it up without a few years of exercise, so the master has taught the slave and the maid some fist and foot kung fu, and the slave and maid exercise all year round, so they still know some kung fu, and the man who committed the murder that day seems to be seriously injured, and I hid in the dark to successfully repel him."

Lin Yuan calmly replied that the work in the imperial dining room was manual work, so it was not surprising that she had some kung fu in her body.

"Okay, now that you have entered the palace, you will be on an errand well, you saved a noble person that day, you will have a good life in the future, and you will be responsible for sending the food to the imperial study in the future." After listening to Lin Kite's explanation, Qingwu's last suspicion about her was all dispelled, and now that the imperial dining room is understaffed, this cook seems to be a good candidate, Qingwu said after thinking for a while.

"The slave obeys." Lin Yuan said respectfully, she was worried about how to put food into the pavilion master's diet, and this Qingwu's order solved this problem for her.

Soon after Qingwu left, the special lunch made for the emperor in the imperial dining room was also ready, because of Qingwu's order just now, the housekeeper's grandmother called Lin Kite, who was busy by the stove, and asked her to go to the imperial dining room to deliver lunch to the emperor.

"New here, you are lucky to climb up to Lord Qingwu, and you have this errand that many people can't ask for, this is a lunch specially prepared for the emperor in the imperial dining room, you can send it directly." The lady in charge ordered.

"Okay, Mama." Lin Kite bowed his head, and then went straight to the imperial study with the food box.

When approaching the imperial study, Lin Yuan carefully looked around, and when she saw that there was no one nearby, she quickly took the food box and hid in the corner of the corner pillar.

Near this corner were a few lush trees, which just obscured the view of the patrolling guards, and Lin Kite lightly placed the food box on the chair at the edge of the pillar and opened it.

On the top of the food box is a bowl of milky white cod tofu soup, this bowl of soup is rich in color, as soon as Lin Yuanfu opens the food box, he smells the aroma that comes to his face, and people can't help but move their index fingers when they smell it.

Lin Kite took out the Gu poison in his arms, poured it directly into the cod tofu soup, and then gently stirred the porcelain spoon in the food box, the Gu poison quickly merged with the bowl of thick soup, and the milky white fish soup exuded a fresh and fragrant taste, so that people could not notice anything unusual.

After doing a series of actions, Lin Kite closed the lid of the food box, and then picked it up and prepared to go to the imperial study, at this moment, she heard the sound of small footsteps nearby, Lin Kite quickly paused, quietly walked to squat down near the bushes and hid.

As soon as Lin Yuan hid here, she saw a woman in a luxurious palace dress walking to the place where she had been poisoned just now, and the two were discussing something in a whisper.

"Master, what is this?" The maid took a small packet of straw paper from the woman's hand and asked.

"Well, naturally, it's something that can make this palace regain His Majesty's favor." The woman dressed in a luxurious palace dress smiled and said with a yearning look.

It turned out that the sneaky master and servant that Lin Yuan met at this time were Jiang Linglong, the daughter of the Hubu Shangshu, and the palace maid beside her.

But her life after entering the palace was completely different from what she imagined, the pavilion master was no longer as tender and sweet as he had treated her before, and always avoided her with the excuse that he was busy with business, which made Jiang Linglong feel very uneasy in her heart.

After all, it is surprising that she can be loved by the emperor with her appearance, but if this favor is only temporary, then her future life is also in jeopardy.

The life of an unfavored concubine in the harem is not easy.

For Jiang Linglong, her only consolation at present is that although the pavilion master no longer favors her, he does not spoil other concubines, nor does he hold a draft, and he seems to be really busy every day.

But this can't stand the seduction of the fox, after all, the status of the pavilion master is noble, and there will always be a foxy woman who will do anything for the sake of glory and wealth.

Jiang Linglong knew that with her appearance, she would definitely not be able to compare with other newcomers in the future, so she must hurry up and get pregnant with the dragon seed before the emperor's draft, so as to stabilize her position.

For this reason, after she was anxious for a long time, she sent someone to inquire about the way to charm a man for her, and finally, she got a kind of enchanting medicine from outside the palace, which is said to be unbearable if you give it to a man.

Although this method is inferior, it is better than being rejected by the emperor in old age and decay in the future, and then living alone in this huge harem.

"When the time comes, you will put this packet of medicine into the rock sugar loquat cup stewed for the emperor in the palace, watch the emperor use it, and you won't have to worry about the rest of the matter." Jiang Linglong looked at the palace maids under her and explained in a low voice.

"The slave obeys." After the little palace maid responded, Jiang Linglong's master and servant looked left and right, saw that there was no one nearby, and then quietly left here.

Seeing that the master and servant had left, Lin Yuan rubbed Shi Cai's numb knees, slowly stood up from the shadow of the canopy, and then walked towards the imperial study.

Coming to the door of the imperial study, Lin Yuan raised her hand and touched the human skin and mask on her face, making sure that the mask was firmly on her face, and then she stabilized her mind and reported loudly at the door.

"The slave maid brings lunch to the emperor."

After speaking, Lin Kite stood at the door and waited, but it was quiet inside. didn't get a response, after thinking for a while, Lin Yuan directly pushed open the door of the imperial study and walked in slowly.

After walking in, Lin Yuan saw that the huge imperial study was empty, and her heart was relieved again, the pavilion master was not there, although she was fully armed, she was still a little worried that she would be recognized when she met the pavilion master.

Bringing the food box to the desk in the imperial study, Lin Yuan opened the compartment of the food box, took out the meals inside one by one, and then placed them neatly, she deliberately put the poisonous crucian carp tofu soup in a conspicuous position, after everything was stopped, Lin Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and prepared to leave here.

Just when Lin Kite was about to walk to the door of the imperial study, the door of the imperial study opened at this time, Lin Kite raised his head and glanced quickly, only to see that it was the pavilion master who was walking towards him.

At this time, it was too late to run, Lin Yuan had no choice but to walk over head-on, and when she was about to approach the pavilion master, she bowed her head and saluted the pavilion master, and then pretended to walk to the door as if nothing had happened, intending to push the door and leave.

"Stop."

Just as Lin Kite was about to walk to the door, he heard the pavilion master's voice coming from behind him.

"The slave and maid greet the emperor."

Lin Kite had no choice but to turn around and walk back, she stood still in front of the Pavilion Master, and then gave the Pavilion Master a salute, she suppressed the beating heart and lowered her head and whispered, at this time Lin Kite's voice was very low, she was very worried that she would be caught in the Pavilion and hear her own voice.

Although Lin Yuan was wearing human skin and mask on his face at this time, he was already a complete stranger to the pavilion master, but with the pavilion master's caution, he would find out if he was not careful.

"Who are you, and why do you go in and out of the study without my permission?" The pavilion master's inquiring gaze was projected on Lin Kite's body, and he asked.

"Back to the emperor, the slave maid is the new cook in the imperial dining room, the number of people in the imperial dining room is insufficient, today Lord Qingwu sent me to bring you lunch, and your meal will also be transported by the slave and maid in the future."

Lin Yuan replied calmly, her heart was extremely glad that Qingwu had sent her.

The pavilion master's gaze was still locked on Lin Kite, and he felt that the palace maid in front of him had a familiar feeling, but her face was very unfamiliar.

"Oh, alright, you go down first." There was silence for a long time, so long that Lin Yuan was about to think that he was exposed, but the pavilion master suddenly spoke.

"The slave obeys." Hearing that the pavilion master let her leave, Lin Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, she still lowered her voice in response, and then turned around and hurriedly left the imperial study.
