Chapter 423

Chong Ximo obviously didn't expect to see it quietly in Chongfu, he was stunned for a moment, and then strode over.

When the official saw Chong Ximo coming over, Mang greeted him respectfully.

"Young Master, are you still going out so late?"

Chong Ximo didn't answer the official's question, his sharp eyes looked at the quiet, and asked suspiciously.

"Why is she here?"

Angry Mrs. Chong

Seeing that the young master was questioning like this, the official family didn't know how to explain it, so he hurriedly replied in a low voice.

"The lord said that the soup in the palace is good today, so I asked the chef of the imperial dining room, Li Chunxiang, to send some soup and give it to his wife."

"Is the soup made by the cook in our house?"

Chong Ximo asked unhappily, obviously he didn't believe that his father would ask Li Chunxiang to go out of the palace to deliver the meal in person for a soup meal, which seemed to be a bit of a big effort.

"That's what the lord ordered, and the lady is still waiting." The official family felt that there was something wrong with the young master's tone, so he hurriedly lowered his head, not daring to talk nonsense anymore.

Quietly squatting on the jar and standing aside, without saying a word, judging from Chong Ximo's attitude of asking so much, the cooks in Chongfu are not too bad, why did Lord Chong let her go all the way out of the palace and send soup over? If there is no other purpose, this really doesn't make sense.

Chong Ximo's gaze fell on Quietly's body, and he suddenly stretched out his hand and whispered to Quietly.

"You go back, I'll bring this soup in."

"No, young master, the master said that he wanted Li Chunxiang to send it personally." The officials were busy dissuading.

Chong Ximo's brows furrowed, and he turned to the official family.

"Why does she have to deliver it herself? Isn't it just a jar of soup? ”

"This ......"

The official's face was embarrassed, and he couldn't answer for a while, but after a long time, he suddenly said a sentence like a big realization.

"It may be that Madame wants to know how this soup is made, so let Li Chunxiang tell the cook."

No matter how you listen to this reason, it seems that she came up with it temporarily, and she quietly doesn't want to be so pestle here, no matter who sends it, this soup should be put down quickly, and she wants to hurry up and go back to ask the old imperial chef about the details of Mongolian meals, so she doesn't want to waste time here, so she opened her mouth.

"Since that's the case, Haruka should send it herself."

"That's right, I'll take you over, and I'll be there in a while, and I'll be done in a while." The official wiped his sweat and breathed a sigh of relief.

Chong Xi Mo saw that he spoke quietly, and it was not easy to stop him anymore.

"Go ahead, I'll be waiting for you outside the door."

Wait, wait for her?

Quietly smiling awkwardly, the machine nodded, turned around and followed the official family towards the main room.

The main room of the Chong family was very quiet, although the maids were in and out, but no one said a word, even if they did, it was a very small voice, Xu is that Mrs. Chong is not in good health and does not like to be noisy, so they are so careful.

I walked into the main hall all the time, but I didn't see the figure of the noble man, so I shouldn't have come back yet.

As the official family entered the main hall, he walked a few halls to the right, and then stood outside the door of a room.

"Madam, Li Chunxiang, who delivered soup from the palace, is here."

After the official family reported it, a woman's voice responded from inside.

"Let her just come in."

"Madame let you in, just go in." The official turned around and told him quietly, be careful when you speak, and not offend Madame.

"I will."

I quietly felt strange, this was the second time the official family reminded her, as if she had to have some conflict with her wife, she was Mrs. Chong, she was the chef of the imperial dining room, and the two people who couldn't beat the eight poles, after sending a soup, no one remembered whom.

The official pushed open the door and quietly walked in with a soup can, and there were two maids standing outside, and when they saw that they had quietly come in, they lifted the bead curtain, revealing a middle-aged woman sitting on a chair.

Looking at this woman's gorgeous clothes and temperament, it should be Mrs. Chong, but ...... The middle-aged woman looked at her with a gaze that made her feel uncomfortable.

"You are Li Chunxiang?"

"Exactly, this is the soup that the adults asked Chunxiang to send, Madame should drink it while it's hot." Quietly picked up the jar in his hand, but didn't know where to put it.

"Alright, Green Willow, take it and set it aside." Mrs. Chong waved her hand, and a maid came up, brought the soup jar, placed it on the table very casually, and stepped aside.

Quietly raised his eyes slightly, looking at the jar, it was really strange, didn't he want to drink soup? Why don't you take advantage of the heat, but put it aside?

Faintly, I quietly felt that something was wrong, just like I heard Chong Ximo ask just now, there is no shortage of cooks who can make soup in Chongfu, and this time Lord Chong asked her to send soup over for another purpose.

"Madam, Chunxiang sent the soup, there is still something in this palace, go back first."

She quietly stepped back and turned to leave, but Mrs. Chong stopped her.

"What's the hurry, I haven't rewarded it yet, Green Willow, go get the reward money."

"Yes, ma'am." Midori turned and went out.

Quietly froze in place, feeling that Lord Chong asked someone to get a reward, just delaying the time for her to leave, if she really wanted to give a reward, this reward should have been prepared a long time ago.

"Where does Chunxiang dare to give a reward, let's go." Quietly turned around, walked hurriedly, and as soon as his hand opened the bead curtain, Mrs. Chong's displeased voice sounded.

"Have the courage to seduce Xi Mo, but don't have the courage to listen to my lesson? In the future, if you are unfortunate enough to design a successful design, will you still have to face me? Don't forget, I'm Xi Mo's mother. ”

Such a sentence made Quietly feel shocked and stunned on the spot, it turned out that the soup was fake, and the warning was true, where does this woman look like she is sick, and her spirit is better than herself, I don't know how many times better.

"Ma'am?"

Quietly turned around and looked at Mrs. Chong, this woman did not leave the door, how did she know that she had seduced her son, and who passed this on to him?

"I called you this time, I also want to make it clear, don't think that if you have a pleasing face and confuse Xi Mo, you can become the legitimate daughter-in-law of the Chong family, the emperor has already mentioned that Xi Mo will definitely represent the royal family and marry a Mongolian princess, and you, if you really fight so much, at best, you are just a maid who sleeps, and I won't even give you the title of a concubine, if you give birth to a boy and half a girl, maybe I can still consider it."

Quietly listening to Mrs. Chong's words, she held her breath in her throat, and her heart became cold, now Miss Chu Si is indeed very depressed, helpless, and even in danger, but she will never give up her dignity in order to get a life-saving straw.

"Madam must have listened to someone's rumors, so she misunderstood Chunxiang so much, Chunxiang didn't seduce Lord Chongximo, and she didn't want to enter Chongfu as a maid, let alone a concubine, even if she was a wife, Chunxiang didn't think about it."

"Are you still quibbling?"

Mrs. Chong didn't listen to the quiet explanation at all, and seemed to be very angry.

"If it wasn't for what you did, how could Xi Mo come back and say that he was going to marry you?"

"What?" Quietly startled, and her face changed, and now she understands why Lord Chong and Mrs. Chong called her over like this, it turned out to be Chong Ximo...... How could he?

There's no next, let's take a look at something else

A proud body

This news made her quietly unprepared, and she didn't know what to say for a while, she lowered her head, thinking about what Chong Ximo said in the forest, it was not fake, he really moved this thought, if the truth of that day was known, it really became the evidence of her temptation of Chong Ximo. Love to see the flowers

"How can the grass on the side of the road be compared with the flowers in the house, you still have to think about it, don't get into trouble, lose your head, it's too late to regret it."

Madame Chong glanced at the soup jar, and coldly called the maid who was standing on the side, and told her to take the soup and give it to the people to drink, for she had no appetite for soup.

The maid answered, walked over and took the soup away, and stood quietly on the spot before speaking.

"Madam, the soup has been delivered, and the words have been heard, if there is nothing else, Haruka will retire."

"What I said is also for your own good, you think about it yourself, what do you have more than the Mongolian princess, if Xi Mo falls in love with the Mongolian princess at first sight, what are you left with? I advise you, you still think about how to mix well in the palace, save a few money, and find a good family to marry in the future. ”

Mrs. Chong closed her gaze, and the green willow came in with a curtain, still holding a small package in her hand.

"These are two hundred taels of silver for the bookkeeper."

"Give it to her, let her go." Mrs. Chong turned away and stopped looking.

Green willow walked up and handed the small package to Quietly, let Quietly take it, saying that it was a reward from Mrs.

"No need, Chunxiang has a moon in the palace, enough to spend."

Quietly did not take the two hundred taels of silver, but turned around, opened the curtain and went out, when the curtain was lowered, she could still hear the green willow "Huh", and asked, "Why don't you give a reward?" ”

"A humble life has also given birth to a proud bone." Mrs. Chong said unhappily, and there was no more sound inside.

Quietly biting his lip, he walked out with his back straight, standing on the small bridge of white jade bluestone, and gasped out with a breath held in his chest.

It was late, and the wind was a little cold and hard, so she pulled the placket and walked out of the door of the Chongjia family quickly.

The small sedan chair outside the door was still parked there, the guards and the palace maid stood on both sides of the sedan chair, and a palace maid saw that she had quietly come out, so she pulled up the sedan chair curtain.

Quietly glanced left and right, did not find Chong Ximo's shadow, the tense heart relaxed, she stepped forward, raised her feet and just got into the sedan chair, but before she could sit down, her wrist was firmly grasped.

"I have something to tell you." A man's deep voice came to his ears.

Quietly exclaimed, turned his head to look, and found that Chong Ximo appeared behind him at some point.

"Chong, Lord Chong, it's late, Chunxiang has something urgent to do when she returns to the palace." quietly retracted his wrist, but was pulled by Chong Ximo hard, and almost fell out of the sedan chair.

"I won't take you too long." Chong Ximo's gloomy eyes looked quietly.

Quietly embarrassed, the guards and palace maids are standing here, she is pulling and pulling with Chongxi Mola like this, and there may be some rumors when it goes out, since he has something to say, he listens to it.

"Haruka came down and listened to the teachings of the adults." Quietly raised his feet and got out of the sedan chair, stood beside Chong Ximo, slowly withdrew his wrist, Chong Ximo didn't insist anymore, and let him go.

"Lord Chong, please say something." Quietly looked away, looking respectful.

Chong Ximo's deep eyes looked quietly, and he said in a muffled voice.

"You come with me!"

After speaking, he strode towards Chongfuli.

Quietly looking at Chong Ximo's back, he hesitated a little, she followed in now, what would he say to her? No matter what she said, it was quietly unacceptable, a woman with a false identity finally stayed away from these rights and wrongs, not to mention that Mrs. Chong had already reminded her that Chong Ximo was going to marry a Mongolian princess.

After Chong Ximo took a few steps, he stopped, he turned his eyes and looked at Quietly, she was still standing there, not moving a step, her eyes down and standing still.

"If you have anything to say, please say it here."

"Li Chunxiang!"

Chong Ximo seemed to be a little angry, he strode back, and when he was about to grab her arm, there was a delicate shout from Princess Xue Ning not far away.

"Brother Xi Mo!"

Chong Ximo and quietly turned his head at the same time, and Princess Xue Ning hurriedly walked here with the guards and palace maids.

Almost subconsciously, he quietly retreated

One step, the distance between her and Chong Ximo was widened, and at this time, Princess Xue Ning had already run over, and after discovering the quiet, the smile on her face immediately condensed.

"Why are you here?"

"Haruka was ordered to come and deliver soup to Madame." Quietly answered.

"Deliver soup? It's true? Princess Xue Ning looked disbelieving.

Quietly took out the waist card and explained, "Father-in-law Ping's order, otherwise Chunxiang won't be able to leave the palace." ”

"I see, let's go back when we're done." Princess Xue Ning glanced at her quietly, then turned her eyes to look at Chong Ximo, and the smile on her face was full again, as if Li Chunxiang's appearance only affected her mood for a moment.

"Brother Xi Mo, I delayed for a while, otherwise I would have come a long time ago."

Princess Xue Ning's eyes were full of admiration, and her face turned red as she spoke, she took out the clothes she bought in the ready-to-wear shop, and said that this was woven by the best weavers in the entire capital, how fine the fabric was, how delicate the handiwork was, and she was the most worthy of Chongxi Mo, and she danced for a full hour.

Listening to Princess Xuening's words, she quietly retreated, got into the sedan chair, and asked the sedan chair man to get up.

This time Chong Ximo didn't come up to stop her, let her leave the gate of Chongfu, the sedan chair had already gone far away, when she looked back, Chong Ximo's tall figure was still standing in front of the red gate, and Princess Xuening was still chattering.

Lowered the curtain and quietly closed her eyes, although she couldn't accept Chong Ximo's kindness, but he helped her many times, and she would remember those favors to her, I hope that the Mongolian princess is a virtuous and virtuous woman, and she can be worthy of a gentleman like Chong Ximo.

When she arrived at the side door of the palace, she quietly got off the sedan chair, and the guards and palace maids left, and she walked alone to the clear stone road, it was already getting dark, thinking that she would have to face the hypocrisy of the clouds when she returned to her residence, so she quietly turned around and went directly to the old imperial kitchen's residence.

There was a few gentle knocks on the door, and there was a pop from inside, as if something had fallen.

"Minions should be damned, minions don't walk long eyes...... "The old imperial chef's crazy words came from inside, and as soon as this guy heard that someone was coming, he began to pretend to be crazy again.

"It's me, Haruka." whispered.

After saying this, there was no movement inside, and then the door opened, and the old imperial cook's face was revealed.

Mongolian roasted whole sheep

Seeing that it was quiet, the old imperial chef didn't say a word, and pulled her in directly, and then the door slammed shut. Love to see the flowers

"Why are you here?" The old imperial chef directly counted and whispered.

"You think I'm as idle as you are?" Quietly took a few breaths in his hand, and found that a lot of things were prepared in the room, and there was a piece of mutton, and the house was full of spices and flavors.
