Fang Die was a child under the age of twenty, and he definitely wanted to eat more after eating delicious food, so he immediately nodded and looked like.

"Fang Die! I don't know how you got into the palace? Did your father let you into the palace? Li Chuxia was more curious about why a girl like Fang Die, even if she was in the people, she could live a very rich and happy life, why she had to come to the palace.

"Queen Mother, don't you know, my father likes the emperor very much, so I hope I can enter the palace to serve the emperor, and said, this is the glory of our Fang family!" Fang Die said, with a delicate look on her face.

Li Chuxia nodded when he heard this, and then felt as if there was a strange feeling spreading in his heart, a little sour feeling. Li Chuxia admitted that she was envious of a girl from a family like Fang Die, and she had the love of her father, and she could join the palace to serve Baili Yunzheng at such a young age.

Fang Die's joy on the queen's face diminished a little, and she thought that what she said had aroused the queen's jealousy, and the alarm bell sounded in her heart, and then she leaked a foolish smile in a panic.

"Actually, I was also forced into the palace by my father, I didn't want to come, but my father's wishes, as a daughter, I can't help but obey my fate." Fang Die said with such relief, in fact, she didn't think so in her heart, and the reason why she said this was just to please Li Chuxia.

Li Chuxia nodded, and didn't say anything more at the dinner table. It's just that Li Chuxia thinks that Fang Die's child is innocent and innocent, and feels that she is not a scheming person.

This time and back, Fang Die likes to eat Li Chuxia's cooking, and Li Chuxia doesn't hate her too much, the relationship between the two soon became a lot closer, Li Chuxia just regarded her as his friend, and he didn't mind anything.

The days were too idle, and Li Chuxia thought of a good way to do charity.

That is, to make your own food to make money, and then part of the profits can be used to rush to the poor to do some good deeds.

Thinking of doing it immediately, Li Chuxia said hello to Baili Yunzheng the next day, and went to the city to look for a good place to open a restaurant, and soon she chose two places.

Li Chuxia was dressed in casual clothes, and then talked to the owner of the shop about the price of the restaurant, the boss didn't know that she was the queen, and several guards around her were also dressed in civilian clothes, and the boss asked for a very high price, Li Chuxia felt that it was still a little expensive, but after talking about the price once, the boss immediately agreed.

Li Chuxia was very happy, so he agreed to buy the restaurant.

Walking out of the restaurant, the palace people around Li Chuxia looked unhappy, and asked in a low voice: "Queen Mother!" Why don't you just tell that person you're the queen!? Then he still dares not to sell!? ”

The people in this palace obviously felt that the businessman wanted to blackmail Li Chuxia, so the first time the asking price was so high, so the queen mother felt that she was too unreasonable.

"You don't know that profiteers have profiteers' interests. It doesn't matter how much money he makes, the point is that I think the price is right. Li Chuxia said calmly.

When the palace people saw the queen's graceful face, they felt a little more awe in their hearts towards Li Chuxia.

A few days later, the money and goods were gone, Li Chuxia brought someone to redecorate the two shops he received, and then personally recruited some cooks into his restaurant, and within half a month's effort, Li Chuxia's two restaurants opened in the capital. The names are taken as Yueyang Building and Chongyang Building, the names of the two restaurants are very good, and many people who pass by and pedestrians come to see the excitement in this restaurant.

Li Chuxia accepted those cooks as disciples, and asked them to sign an agreement, once they learned, they would always be cooks in these two restaurants, and they could not quit, nor could they sell the recipes to others privately, and the offender could only pay a fine of 2,000 taels to quit.

The reason why Li Chuxia asked them to sign such a perverted treaty was just that he felt that his craftsmanship was not easy to come by, and he didn't want his craftsmanship to leak out so quickly.

She believed that as long as the restaurant opened soon, someone would immediately come to the restaurant to poach cooks and go back to her restaurant to open business.

On this day, Concubine Duan had nothing to do, and went to the queen's palace to find Li Chuxia, but Li Chuxia was not in the palace, and the palace maid told her that the queen mother had been busy with business in the city recently, so she was not in the palace.

When Concubine Duan heard this, she felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, because the emperor stayed in the imperial study all day long, and the most time left was to walk with the queen in the imperial garden, and she would go to the queen's bedroom every night to sleep, or summon the queen to sleep in his palace.

Concubine Duan thought of the status of the queen mother in the emperor's heart, and couldn't help but feel that her teeth were about to be soured by their love.

The emperor's partiality, anyone can see it, if they, the concubines who have been ignored by the emperor, don't say anything, and let the emperor love them, then all they can get is to die alone.

When Concubine Duan thought of this ending, she was very reluctant in her heart. Anyway, she is only eighteen years old, and she began to live as a widow at such a young age.

Concubine Duan thought of Li Chuxia's favorite food, and when she thought of this, she guessed that the reason why Baili Yunzheng liked Li Chuxia so much must be because of her good cooking skills! Thinking of this, Concubine Duan felt that she had to think of some way to get closer to the emperor.

So when she returned to her palace, Concubine Duan called the imperial kitchen that Baili Yunzheng liked to use most on weekdays, and asked him to teach her a very nourishing soup, and she learned to serve it to Baili Yunzheng in person.

Soon Fang Die was very attentive, so he quickly learned.

Concubine Duan sent the imperial chef away, and then prepared to go to the emperor's palace with the bowl of soup, suddenly, he thought of the rumor that the emperor didn't like the new concubine at all, and she suddenly felt that she would definitely not be liked by Baili Yunzheng if she went in with the soup like this, and she might be allowed to go directly.

Thinking like this, she walked on the way to the imperial study and stopped as she walked, and after thinking for a long time, she finally thought of a way that would allow her to get close to the emperor and get the emperor's favor at one time.

There have been people studying medicine in Duanfei's family for generations, but her father is not famous for studying medicine, so people in the palace don't know that there are generations of people in her family who have studied medicine. There happened to be an aphrodisiac in the soup she stewed today, and this herb has a very unique feature, that is, when used with another herb, it can have a miraculous effect comparable to that of an aphrodisiac.

Concubine Duan thought about it, and felt that this method was really blessed by God, if she grinded that kind of medicinal herb into powder and put it in the soup, and the emperor drank it, maybe he would be pampered that night.

The more Concubine Duan thought about it, the happier she became, and she felt that she had to give it a try, what if the emperor could really become it?

Thinking of this, she went back to the palace, ground the medicinal herbs she brought to the palace into powder and then put it in the soup in the bowl to heat it again, this time she confidently took the bowl of soup to the emperor's bedroom, she didn't believe that Concubine Duan couldn't get the emperor's favor, and she couldn't compare the daughter of the right minister?

When I arrived at the door of the imperial study, the guards said that the emperor was not there, and he was in the dormitory on the side.

So Concubine Duan went to the door of the dormitory again, and the guards stopped her and asked her why she came, Concubine Duan thought for a while before saying: "Recently, the queen mother has been busy with things outside the palace, so she specially asked me to bring soup to the emperor." ”

When the guard at the door heard the queen's order, he didn't dare to slack off, so he let Concubine Duan in.

Concubine Duan entered the emperor's bedroom for the first time, and she was so frightened that she didn't dare to breathe, but she was still very happy.

Concubine Duan walked into the palace with the decoction, and Baili Yunzheng thought that she was too tired during the day, so she lay down on the bed early to rest.

Concubine Duan took a look, the emperor with a long body and a handsome face, even though she had heard that he had slaughtered many times on the battlefield and his exploits were scorching, but unfortunately now she couldn't help but feel excited.

"Your Majesty! I've got a bowl of soup for you! Please drink it to replenish your body. Concubine Duan said softly and demurely.

When Baili Yunzheng heard the voice of a woman talking in the room, the first thing he thought of was Li Chuxia, because he ordered him to enter his dormitory, except for Li Chuxia, no other concubines were allowed to enter, and it was impossible for his guards to let women other than Li Chuxia in.

Baili Yunzheng has been busy sorting out government affairs until late at night these days, so he always has a headache these days, and he lies in bed early to rest.

As soon as he heard that there was a nourishing decoction, Baili Yunzheng leaked a faint smile on his face, and then sat up and said, "Since there is a decoction, then bring it to me to taste." ”

It was getting dark outside, the light in the room was getting darker, and Baili Yunzheng couldn't see the appearance of the person in front of him clearly, but he felt that it was similar to Li Chuxia.

Concubine Duan sent the decoction to Baili Yunzheng's side, Baili Yunzheng opened the bowl, and then picked up the spoon and drank it spoonful.

After drinking for a while, Baili Yunzheng put down the bowl and said, "Well, this bowl of soup tastes very good!" In early summer, did you burn it yourself? ”

Baili Yunzheng looked at Chu Xia's backlit face with some doubts and asked.

When Concubine Duan heard that the emperor actually called herself to be early summer, but fortunately, he said it quickly, and she could pretend not to understand.

Concubine Duan smiled softly at Baili Yunzheng, then nodded and replied: "It was the concubine who personally burned it for the emperor to drink, you are really busy with government affairs all day long, and the concubine is afraid that you will be tired of your body, so she made this bowl of soup in the hope of nourishing your body." ”
