[Chapter 6, Volume 6]

Section 259 Chapter 252 Prelude

Although it was already past the time for breakfast, the small kitchen of the Feng Dynasty Palace was still in full swing preparing the ingredients needed for lunch.

After all, it is the queen who uses the small kitchen in private, so naturally it is impossible to be so small. The original five small stoves, because Xie Danniang was recuperating in the Feng Dynasty Palace, deliberately vacated two. In addition, Le'er was suddenly brought up to decoction and medicine, and the people of Lan Xiao Palace were stunned to occupy three stoves at once.

The palace maids of the Feng Dynasty Palace were naturally unhappy, if the master wanted them to cook those delicacies similar to Buddha jumping over the wall, and took up one of the stoves, would they still want to make other meals? The palace maids and eunuchs who were waiting in the small kitchen under the two masters met day by day, and naturally they didn't have any good faces every day.

It's also a shame that Le'er will be a person, unless you need a stove to make medicinal food, like decoction or something, there is naturally a medicine stove to use. In those spare time, Le'er smiled and greeted the people of Fengchao Palace with the stove, but also got a good face from those individuals. It's just that the people in Lanxiao Palace have seen Le'er's behavior of turning his elbow outward, and they look down on Le'er a little in their hearts, but because Le'er is now in power and has a good relationship with Xiao Ruo in private, they don't dare to say anything.

"Yo, Mama Fang, why are you here, but what snacks does the queen want to use? You always tell a little girl to come and inform you, why bother you to go all the way to the unclean place of the slave maid? The small kitchen manager of Feng Chao Palace saw that the person at the door was Mama Fang, and immediately nodded and greeted him.

In the past, people like Mama Fang never came to such a place, and the small kitchen steward of Feng Chao Palace was full of doubts, but he didn't dare to show the slightest bit on his face.

Mama Fang nodded expressionlessly to the steward, and then walked inside. Whether it is from Fengchao Palace or Lanxiao Palace, as long as it is cleaned by the stove, the vegetable chopping person is blessed to Mama Fang, and then continues the work in hand.

Mama Fang looked at the ingredients that would be prepared, turned half her face slightly, looked at the steward and ordered: "The queen wants to eat with several little masters of the harem today, so that you can prepare more dishes, especially the jade and white jade, but you have to get it carefully, the queen used it yesterday, I think it's not bad, I said that I want other little masters to try it together, but I can't let you down." ”

"This ......," the steward glanced up at Mama Fang with some embarrassment, but continued without hesitation.

"What? It's just a dish, can it stump you? Mama Fang's face was quite displeased, she stopped, turned to look at the steward and asked.

The steward, who was already bent over, was even lower at this time, and the face on his face became more and more humble, and he was blessed, and said in embarrassment: "That jade and white jade can enter the eyes of the queen's mother, which is naturally the blessing of the slave and the maid." It's just that the ingredients are a little more exquisite, and if you start preparing now, maybe you can still catch up with the time for lunch, but there are only two stoves in our Feng Dynasty Palace at the moment, and if you divide a special cooking jade and white jade, I am afraid that the other dishes will be delayed. The steward cautiously glanced up at Mama Fang, and carefully pondered what to say.

"Delay? Are you going to let the old slave go directly to the queen and reply in front of the queen, you can't do it? It doesn't matter if the mother can eat it or not, but those little masters are all coming for your dish, if you can't serve it at that time, the mother will lose face......" Mama Fang's eyes narrowed slightly, and her anger naturally appeared.

"This, this, the slave knows that you understand the difficulties of the people below the most, and the slave and maid really have no choice, so they will tell you the truth. Two stoves cook a table of dishes, and the slave and maid can still cope with it, but the jade and white jade are really a little difficult. "I knew this was the case, and I didn't offer the jade and white jade yesterday, but I never thought that it not only really entered the eyes of the queen's mother, but also made her worry about it.

I don't know if it was the flattery of the steward that worked, Mama Fang no longer embarrassed her, but shifted her gaze to the three stoves used by the people in Lanxiao Palace.

"Is there a steward of Lan Xiao Palace here?" Mama Fang asked, looking around.

"Slave and maid are." A tall, round-faced, slightly blessed woman walked out, bowed to Mama Fang without humility or arrogance, and asked, "What do you command?" ”

"We are all serving in front of the master, and we dare not take orders. It's just that now the queen wants to feast a few little masters, and she wants to invite all the little masters to taste a piece of jade and white jade. You have seen what I said to the steward just now, and there is still a lack of a stove, so let's see, can you spare one at lunchtime today? The tone in Mama Fang's words was neither salty nor light, without the slightest sense of compulsion, as if she was really discussing.

The round-faced steward blessed his body, his eyes rolled slightly, and he replied: "It's not that the slaves and maids forcibly occupy it and don't give it, it's just that the imperial concubine Niangniang ordered this morning to use some good blood swallows." Mama should also know that the blood swallow needs to be simmered slowly on a low fire, and she can't be in a hurry; The other stove also has to prepare the mother's lunch, which is really unavailable. ”

In and out of the words, it is all difficult, and it is really impossible to borrow.

It's just that Le'er's stove used to make medicinal food seems to have been completely forgotten by the round-faced steward. Think about it, the current Lan Dynasty, the most noble is the fetus in the womb of the imperial concubine, even if it is to borrow the courage to give it to Mama Fang, I am afraid that I will not dare to ask for the stove that serves the imperial concubine Niangniang to protect the fetus.

It seems that today's Mama Fang is very good at talking, even if she was rejected by the round-faced steward, she only fell lightly and never made her sad.

"You and I are both slaves, and I am not such an unreasonable person." Mama Fang turned to look at the steward of the Feng Dynasty Palace and said, "But those who are dedicated to the queen should do their best to share everything for the queen mother." Sometimes even if the mother doesn't say it, you have to think of everything for the mother and do it. If there really is such a person, I really want to take a few of them around to help out. As she spoke, Mama Fang's eyes gently swept in Le'er's direction, which meant something, and I didn't know if the person could understand it.

If you don't even understand such a hint, it can only mean that this Le'er can't afford to look down on her from the queen's mother, and naturally Mama Fang doesn't need to say anything to Le'er.

After talking for a long time, I still didn't say what to do. The steward of the Feng Dynasty Palace was a little anxious, but he couldn't urge to ask, so he had to say cautiously: "The slave maid is naturally dedicated to the queen's mother. It's just that the slave maid is really stupid, and I ask the grandmother to teach the slave and maid, how should I do this dish today? ”

"How is it good? As a small kitchen manager, do you even have to ask me about such a thing? So what else does the queen want from you? Niangniang heard that the lotus flowers in the lotus pond are blooming very well, and I will go to get some lotus flowers and put them in Niangniang's study later, where is there any time to help you think about something?! Mama Fang's face suddenly changed, she reprimanded him heavily, and then left directly.

The steward was in a hurry and didn't know what to do, but he didn't dare to step forward to stop Mama Fang. If you really divide one stove to make jade and white jade, how can another stove make a table of dishes? It's hard for a clever woman to cook without rice, and now there are ten clever women, and they can't cook a table of dishes without a stove! It's a big problem.

"Sister steward, why don't you use the slave's stove? The imperial concubine Niangniang's health has been getting better these days, saying that she is not used to the taste of medicinal food, and she wants to stop for a few days. Le'er walked up to the steward of the Feng Dynasty Palace, blessed the body and said.

As soon as these words came out, the steward was like seeing a life-saving Bodhisattva, and immediately couldn't help but be overjoyed, looking at Le'er, his face was like an old chrysanthemum blooming, and he asked in surprise: "Really?" Thank you so much Miss Le'er. ”

Le'er was blessed again, and said modestly with a smile: "Sister steward, don't be polite. As he spoke, he turned around and poured out the fetal medicine that had been fried in the medicine jar, walked out of the small kitchen, and beckoned to a little palace maid who had just passed by and was waiting in the Lanxiao Palace.

Seeing the little palace maid approaching, Le'er handed the fetal pill to her and said, "I suddenly felt a little unwell, maybe I had a bad stomach." This medicine has just been decocted, if it is left for a long time, I am afraid that it will lose its effect. You can send it to the imperial concubine's dormitory and put it in the hands of the medical lady's aunt. After saying that, Le'er urged the little palace maid to leave, and hurried away by herself.

"Did she say anything when she handed you this tocolytic pill?" Xiao Ruo took the fetal pill from the little palace maid and asked with a light smile.

"Back to my aunt's words, Miss Le'er just said that she was not feeling well, and left the small kitchen." The little palace maid blessed her body and replied.

"Who has Le'er seen before? Who did you talk to? Xiao Ruo thought thoughtfully for a moment and asked in a low voice.

The little palace maid told the little palace maid in detail what had just happened in the small kitchen, word by word, as if she was standing there at the time. Indeed, she was there, but in a side door in the kitchen, and no one saw her.

"The lotus pond, hehe, it's really empty, even if you want to say something, others can't hear it, it's just a coincidence." Xiao Ruo's eyes were full of smiles.

Things have been unconsciously getting more and more complete.

"Fu'er, you should know that the imperial concubine Niangniang is now pregnant with a dragon heir, and the people around her must not have any crooked hearts. Niangniang and I have long been suspicious of Le'er, so I have only ordered you to keep an eye on her in the past few days. ”

At this moment, I am afraid that she went to the lotus pond to see Mama Fang, and I don't know what they are planning. You take care of it for me, and don't let anyone else find out, so as not to startle the snake. ”

Since they are as she expected, she will have to sing tomorrow's drama well, so that she can't thank God for helping her these days.
