Ning Zhiyun followed up and took over Shangguan Hanyue's words and said: "Seeing the appearance of the ninth princess made the courtiers think of the word "cute", the praise of the princess in all dynasties is just a cliché of noble and dignified or manners, but the courtiers selfishly think that the princess who attaches equal importance to beauty and bearing, even if it can be immortal, but it is not as precious as the simple and cute, and I think that what the queen mother gave to the ninth princess is the most precious calf licking in the world, which will get used to the coquettish and foolish temperament of the ninth princess. ”

Aunt Feng saw that the Queen Mother's expression suddenly became solemn, and she immediately diverted the topic and said, "The Queen Mother has been talking for so long, she must be thirsty this time." Aunt Feng followed and instructed the little palace maid on the side: "Go and brew the Queen Mother's favorite Longjing tea." ”

"Wait, don't rush to make tea just yet." Shangguan Yunxin then stood up from the pestle and said, "Imperial grandmother, the second young lady has specially prepared a medicinal diet for the imperial grandmother, and Xin'er has prepared the pear meat Langjun that the imperial grandmother loves to eat." ”

"Hearing Xin'er say this, the mourning family is really a little hungry." The Empress Dowager followed and let Shangguan Yunxin and Aunt Feng help her up from the soft collapse and said, "Speaking of which, the medicinal diet prepared by the second girl is really much stronger than those of the old imperial doctors in the imperial hospital, not to mention that the medicinal gas is not so heavy, and the taste is also good." ”

"The Queen Mother always said that the medicinal diets prepared by the imperial doctors in the imperial hospital are all bitter, not as good as the second lady's medicinal diets, which are full of color and fragrance." Aunt Feng also looked at Ning Zhiyun with a smile and said, "The day before yesterday, the codonopsis lotus pork heart soup stewed according to the recipe of the second lady in the small kitchen won the love of the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother actually used one more bowl than usual. ”

"The medicinal diet prepared by the imperial doctor of the imperial hospital for the imperial grandmother only focused on the medicinal effect, but the second lady took into account that people who have been ill for a long time will inevitably have a weak mouth, so she came up with the idea of soaking Codonopsis with acacia nectar, so as to get rid of the bitter taste in Codonopsis. Shangguan Yunxin saw that Aunt Feng praised Ning Zhixuan's medicinal diet for doing well, and hurriedly followed aside, "Second Miss is really smart and careful, in addition to using acacia nectar to remove the bitter taste on Codonopsis, she also deliberately used the dew on the freshly picked lotus leaves to stew the Codonopsis lotus dew pig's heart soup, which can make the pig's heart soup full of the refreshing fragrance of lotus leaves." ”

"No wonder the Queen Mother is full of praise for the medicinal food made by the second lady, it turns out that such a small cup of pig heart soup has used so much thought." Aunt Feng followed and said, "I don't know what medicinal food the second lady prepared for the Queen Mother today, and the slave maid can also open her eyes." ”

"Aunt Feng is not only an eye-opener today, but also a blessing." Shangguan Yunxin looked at Aunt Feng with a smile and said, "Second Miss has also prepared a medicinal meal for you, Auntie." ”

"The slave is humble, how dare you work The second lady personally prepared medicinal food for the slave and maid." Although Aunt Feng is an old lady who has been around the Queen Mother for many years, her words and deeds have always been humble and decent, "The second young lady is really tormenting the slave." ”

Ning Zhixuan saw that Aunt Feng was as humble and decent as she expected, and she had already secretly given Shangguan Yunxin a look.

Shangguan Yunxin understood and hurriedly said according to the words taught by Ning Zhixin before: "Aunt Feng is the most powerful person by the imperial grandmother's side, although Xin'er has the intention to stay in the imperial grandmother's side to serve, but it is not as thoughtful as Aunt Feng to take care of the imperial grandmother. ”

"It is the duty of slaves and maids to serve the queen mother, and slaves and maids really dare not take credit." Aunt Feng then knelt in front of the Queen Mother and said, "Being able to serve the Queen Mother is a blessing that the slave maid has cultivated for several generations." ”

"Being able to serve by the emperor's grandmother's side is naturally a blessing that Aunt Feng has cultivated for several generations." Shangguan Yunxin smiled at Aunt Feng's words and said with a pair of apricot eyes, "Imperial grandmother, Xin'er said that Aunt Feng's service by the imperial grandmother's side is a blessing that has been cultivated for several generations, not that Aunt Feng can serve by the noble imperial grandmother, but that Aunt Feng can serve by the imperial grandmother, who has always been lenient and has a bodhisattva heart." ”

"Her Royal Highness the Ninth Princess's words are extremely true." Aunt Feng glanced at the little palace maids standing around, followed by the little palace maids who knelt on the ground and kowtowed together, "Her Royal Highness the Ninth Princess is very right, the grace of the Queen Mother is really the blessing of the slaves and maids for several generations." ”

"You old thing, this is helping this little girl to please the mourning family." The Queen Mother was blaming Aunt Feng on the surface, but the curvature of the corners of her lips couldn't be suppressed.

"Queen Mother, His Royal Highness Prince Heng has come down to greet the Queen Mother, and now people are waiting outside the palace." Pine Needle walked in and reported to the Queen Mother.

"It's about to be passed that Prince Heng is coming in, but it's going to freeze people outside." The Empress Dowager followed and looked at Shangguan Hanyue beside her and said, "It's rare for your brothers to get together together, so let's have breakfast with the mourning family today." ”

As soon as Shangguan Yunxin heard that Shangguan Qingyue was going to sit together, even if he had already wrinkled his nose, Shangguan Hanyue naturally responded with a smile, but Ning Zhixin beside him couldn't see any mood fluctuations, and a pair of eyes followed Shangguan Qingyun who was already unwavering and looking at Shangguan Qingyun who was moving in with the curtain.

"Grandson greets the imperial grandmother." Shangguan Qingyu was thoughtful, but there was still no expression on his face.

"Hurry up, is your mother okay?" The Empress Dowager followed and asked Shangguan Qingqiao to get up and said, "The imperial concubine is in charge of the Phoenix Seal and commands the Six Palaces on behalf of the Empress, which is really hard, and now you have to know how to take care of your body." ”

"The grandson thanked the imperial grandmother for the concubine and asked" Shangguan Qingqiao replied, "The concubine just occasionally felt the cold, and now she is much more relaxed after taking the medicine." ”

The queen mother showed a kind smile on her face: "The imperial concubine is safe and the mourning family is relieved." ”

"I've seen the eldest brother." Shangguan Hanyue hugged her fist towards Shangguan Qingyu.

"Xin'er greets the eldest brother." Shangguan Yunxin followed and bowed to Shangguan Qingyu.

"The courtiers have seen His Royal Highness Prince Heng, His Royal Highness is blessed." Ning Zhixin followed closely behind Shangguan Yunxin and gave Shangguan Qingyu a salute.

"Qing'er came just in time." The Empress Dowager lovingly looked at Shangguan Qingyu, who had only arrived at the end, and said, "Let's go to breakfast with the mourning family." ”

"Sister Ning, we didn't know in advance that the eldest brother would also come to Shoukang Palace, so we didn't prepare his food at all." Shangguan Yunxin whispered in Ning Zhixuan's ear, "It's better to let Pa Yun sneak into the imperial grandmother's small kitchen now, and let her take other food instead." ”

"Although I didn't know that Prince Heng would suddenly come to Shoukang Palace to say goodbye." When Ning Zhixuan confirmed that Shangguan Qingyun was not paying attention to this, she lowered her voice and replied to Shangguan Yunxin, "But if you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what happens, it is always not wrong to prepare more, I have specially prepared more, you can rest assured." ”

"Sister Ning is really thoughtful." Although Shangguan Yunxin doesn't like Shangguan Qingxiao very much, he doesn't hate Shangguan Jiuxiao so much, if the big guys have food for a while, but Shangguan Qingxiao doesn't, it will be embarrassing.

Soon everyone came to the west side hall of Shoukang Palace, the queen mother usually eats in the main hall of Shoukang Palace, but there is only a mahogany round table there, and now many people want to come to the Yanxia Pavilion where the festival feasts.

The Empress Dowager first entered the upper seat, the Empress Dowager's seat was placed on the left and right sides of Shangguan Hanyue and Shangguan Qingyue's seats, the Great Zhou has always been to the left, although Shangguan Qingyue is Shangguan Hanyue's brother, but since ancient times, the descendants have clearly distinguished between respect and inferiority, so the people also arranged Shangguan Hanyue's seat on the left, and Shangguan Qingyue's seat on the right.

Shangguan Yunxin actually wanted to sit next to Ning Zhixin, but he didn't dare to break the rules, so he had to sit obediently on his seat.

Ning Zhiyun's seat was naturally arranged at the end, she was just the daughter of her subordinates, if she didn't win the favor of the queen mother, she wouldn't have this honor to sit with the prince and princess.

Shangguan Yunxin praised Ning Zhixuan in front of the Empress Dowager, so the Empress Dowager and Shangguan Hanyue, as well as her own medicinal diet, had already been carefully evaluated.

"What's in the silver cup of the eldest emperor?" Shangguan Yunxin had already set his curious eyes on Shangguan Qingyu, who had just lifted the lid of the silver cup.

"Back to Her Royal Highness the Princess, the prince's silver cup contains winter bamboo shoots and gastrodia pigeons." The palace maid who brought the silver cup for Shangguan Qingqiao followed and knelt on the ground and replied to Shangguan Yunxin.

Shangguan Yunxin obviously didn't see the mystery in the medicinal diet that Ning Zhixuan prepared for Shangguan Qingyu, but on the side, Guan Hanyue saw it, and he also quietly glanced at the Empress Dowager who was tasting the medicinal food.

"Imperial grandmother, Xin'er specially made your favorite pear meat for the imperial grandmother today." Shangguan Yunxin followed and said, "Xin'er knows that the imperial grandmother doesn't like to eat sweet and greasy food, so she didn't put sugar in the pastries, but used wattle nectar instead of cotton sugar. ”

"Grandmother Huang knows that you have always been a good child of filial piety." The Empress Dowager's loving gaze fell on Shangguan Yunxin and said, "The Imperial Grandmother has also prepared good things for you." ”

"Isn't there another good imperial chef made of pastries in the imperial grandmother's kitchen?" Shangguan Yunxin followed and said happily, "That Xin'er is going to ask the new imperial chef for cooking skills." ”

"You girl knows how to eat." The Empress Dowager saw Shangguan Yunxin's delicate appearance as her little daughter, but she really responded to Ning Zhixin's simple words, and then looked at Shangguan Yunxin's gaze and softened her words, "Grandmother Huang has something to reward you." ”

"It turns out that there is something to reward Xin'er." Shangguan Yunxin's eyes flashed with a moment of disappointment, and then he made a gesture of joy and said, "The things that the imperial grandmother rewarded are naturally good, and Xin'er is very happy." ”
