Because today is the birthday of the Queen Mother, and the people who come are extremely complete, this is an opportunity to flatter the Queen Mother, and it is also an opportunity to climb up, and who wants to be subservient to others.

"I heard that the Queen Mother is going to embarrass a new imperial chef today?" I don't know who started it.

"I don't know about this micro-minister." Some people know but don't dare to say it, for fear that someone with a heart will listen to it and report it to the Queen Mother.

"Lord Huang, have you heard, it is said that this new imperial chef seems to be a girl of sixteen or seventeen? According to what I see, girls should not show their heads, they should get married early, and then marry and raise children. Another man said angrily.

"Yes." As a result, as soon as this person's voice fell, there was a chorus of echo. After all, this is in ancient times, and what they thought in their hearts was that women had to be virtuous and decent, and they had to do their true duty, not this kind of showmanship, if women did it, what would they men do.

"The Queen Mother has arrived." Just as everyone was talking, a shrill eunuch's voice suddenly came.

The ministers hurriedly knelt down, "The ministers have seen the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother Chitose Chitose Chitose!" ”

I saw that the queen mother was dressed in a golden phoenix dress, her black hair was pulled up high, and the other silver hairpins on her head added a touch of color to her hair, her eyes were bright, her right hand was on the hand of a person who was probably a grandmother, and her left hand was holding a cane. Listen to the government", at that time, it will be difficult to say.

The Queen Mother sat down slowly, Mama gently let go, then bent over, slowly left, and then stood behind the Queen Mother and knelt down.

"All the ministers are flat!" The majestic voice of the Queen Mother rang out.

"Empress Dowager Xie." The ministers stood up one by one, and before they could slow down, they didn't expect another voice to sound, "The emperor has arrived!" ”

"The ministers welcome the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor!" The ministers knelt down again.

I saw Emperor Zhao wearing a crown on his head and appearing in front of everyone in a golden suit, and when he saw that his queen mother had already sat down, he smiled and said, "The queen is late, I didn't expect the queen mother to come earlier than the emperor!" The emperor visits the queen mother! ”

The Queen Mother smiled slightly, "Sheng Er said that she laughed, the mourning family just had nothing to do, so let's come and sit down, and besides, today is the birthday of the mourning family, and I also want to see if these dishes can be made by the imperial chef." ”

"Yes, the emperor understands." Zhao Sheng Rong nodded, he knew this, it should be said that seven days ago, the fifth brother Zhao Changde suddenly found him and the Queen Mother Shan Yu Caitian, saying that he was going to make a few special dishes to embarrass a female imperial chef who was inserted by the ninth brother. When Zhao Fuqing let He Lan enter the imperial dining room, he had also heard about it, but he didn't care about it, he just felt that it was just a little girl, at most a kitchener. But after listening to the fifth brother's words, he felt that he could indeed try it to see if it was really as good as the ninth brother said. So, there is a total of their mother and son.

Of course, He Lan didn't know all this, and after letting people take away those special dishes, she began to be busy with other dishes, such as baked shrimp in soup, roasted suckling pig, jade balls, and braised lion's head. So for what happened in front of me, I had to listen to the person who delivered the food to come back.

"Today's Queen Mother is really beautiful, I can't tell that she is fifty years old at all." At this time, there was the envious voice of a little girl.

"Yes, that's the blessed man. If we ......" the other girl had a fantasy.

"Do a good job for the miscellaneous family, and don't chew the root of your tongue!" Huo Sihui immediately interrupted the voices of the two little girls.

"Yes." The two little girls were immediately silent, and then went to work on themselves.

After hearing this, He Lan couldn't help but shake her head, and said to herself, "Fifty years old is not too old, as long as it is properly maintained, everything will not look old, and I have seen people who are nearly sixty years old still play teenage girls." ”

"Sister He, what do you mean when you say you've seen a sixty-year-old person play a teenage girl?" Feng'er blinked, then asked.

"Ah......" He Lan didn't expect her self-talk to be heard by Feng'er, thought for a while, and said with a smile, "I saw it in a dream." "She didn't dare to say that she had traveled through time, otherwise she would really think of herself as a monster.

"I said it couldn't be. My grandfather is over sixty years old, and his face is already full of wrinkles, how can he play a girl? Mu Ping's immature voice rang out, and it immediately made the imperial dining room laugh.

Huo Sihui felt extremely harsh when he heard this laughter, since He Lan entered here seven days ago, there was often laughter, and he didn't understand why people were looking towards He Lan and not towards himself. Hearing the laughter, he muttered, "As long as the Queen Mother doesn't like the dishes you cook, at that time, it's up to you to cry!" Then, he walked to his resting place, he didn't want to argue with He Lan here anymore, otherwise, it would be him who lost, so it was better not to see it.

Shan Yu Caitian saw that Zhao Shengrong only cared about chatting with him, but ignored the ministers who knelt down, and said with a smile, "Sheng'er, don't sit down quickly, so that everyone can get even, if you don't speak, who dares to get up?" ”

Zhao Sheng Rong smiled and nodded, "It was the emperor who was excited for a while and forgot." Then, he walked to the position directly above, sat down, and raised his right hand, "Zhongqing, flat!" ”

"Emperor Xie!" Only then did everyone stand up and stand in order of rank.

"Let's all sit down, after all, the food will be served in a while." Zhao Sheng Rong said.

"Yes." Then they sat down one by one.

In less than a quarter of an hour, there was another sound, "The queen mother has arrived, Princess Jing has arrived, Princess Qing has arrived!" "It turned out to be the queen and the two princesses who came.

Seeing that everyone was about to get up again, Shan Yu Caitian spoke, "Today is a family banquet, there is no need to make a big gift, and there is no need to ask all the ministers to worship again." ”

"The Queen Mother is right." Zhao Sheng Rong nodded, "Everyone stand up and salute, just do it." ”

"Thank you!" The crowd hurriedly saluted to show that they understood.

Soon, Queen Qi Lingzhi, Princess Jing Zhao Jinglin, and Princess Qing Zhao Qing Miaoyi stepped forward one by one.

"The concubines have seen the queen mother and the emperor. The queen mother is a thousand years old and a thousand years old, long live the emperor, long live the emperor, long live, long live! Saying that, Qi Lingzhi was about to kneel, but was stopped by the Queen Mother, "No need, Ling Zhi get up, just sit on Sheng'er's left hand." ”

Qi Ling was stunned and swept towards Zhaosheng Rong, Zhaosheng Rong nodded with a smile, and then she smiled and said, "The concubine obeys the order!" ”

"Jinglin (Qingmiao) has seen the queen mother and the emperor!" The two princesses also had to salute, but the queen mother glanced at Zhao Sheng Rong, and Zhao Sheng Rong said, "The two royal sisters don't have to be so polite, show the two princesses!" ”

"Yes!" Immediately, someone pulled the two princesses to the right hand of the Queen Mother, "Princess, please take a seat." ”

The two princesses sat down one by one, "Queen Xie, the emperor!" ”

The ministers saluted, "The ministers have seen the queen, Princess Jing, and Princess Qing!" ”

"Since the queen mother also said that there is no need to be polite, then the ministers do not need to be polite." Qi Lingzhi smiled.

"Queen Xie, Princess Jing, Princess Qing."

"Xiao Hangzi, go and ask the catering officer, can the food come up?" The emperor saw that the people were almost there, so he asked someone to ask.

"Why, the imperial brother is going to have a banquet without waiting for the courtiers and the other seven elder brothers to come?" The person who spoke was none other than the Nine Princes Zhao Fu Qing, that is, the Qing Princes.

"It turned out to be Qing'er." Seeing the appearance of Zhao Fuqing, Shan Yu Caitian's eyebrows wrinkled slightly, he didn't expect him to be able to escape from the fire, it seems that he really underestimated him, but since today is his birthday, he can't mention the past, and immediately greeted him with a smile, "I don't know how these minions and maids are, even the Qing prince came, and he didn't announce it." ”

Zhao Fuqing naturally could see that the Queen Mother did not like herself, although she did not like it in her heart, but she did not show it, and then said with a smile, "Queen Mother, Erchen made a friend when she went out this time, and she tasted a delicacy that she had never tasted before, so in order to surprise the Queen Mother, she was specially allowed to enter the imperial dining room as an imperial chef, presumably today's dishes must have been made by her." Of course, he also knew that the emperor and the queen mother sent people to embarrass He Lan.

"I heard the fifth brother say it yesterday, does the queen mother still remember?" Zhao Sheng Rong smiled and nodded.

"The mourning family is old, so the memory is ......" Shan Yu Caitian deliberately avoided this topic, and at this moment, the voice of help came, "Please tell the Queen Mother, do you want to serve the food?" ”

"Up!" Shan Yu Caitian said immediately in order to see the result.

"Yes!" The voice fell, and another voice rose again, "Serve!" ”

"Hui Niangniang, this dish is designated by the imperial chef for the Queen Mother!" As he spoke, he saw a girl take out a plate with a lid from the food box. Suddenly, six eyes swept towards the plate, all in curiosity.

"What kind of dish is this?" Shan Yu Caitian asked.

"Niangniang, the imperial chef said that this dish should be uncovered by Niangniang herself!" Xiao Yahuan smiled.

"Queen Mother," Zhao Sheng Rong spoke, "In that case, let the Queen Mother open." ”

"Okay, then the mourning family will give you a good luck!" As he spoke, Shan Yu Caitian opened the lid on the plate, revealing a couple who were biting their ears relatively well, as if they were whispering.

"Queen Mother, this is a ......" Zhao Shengrong frowned, and when he was about to speak, it was Zhao Fuqing who took the first step, "Queen Mother, look at it again, it is written that this dish is a 'whisper', presumably this is one of the dishes that the Queen Mother and the fifth brother want to deliberately embarrass her, right?" ”

Originally, Zhao Sheng Rong wanted to use this to say that He Lan's approach was not in general, after all, in their minds, this kind of thing could not be disclosed, but they didn't expect Zhao Fuqing to hit their key point with one word.

"Exactly, I didn't expect this imperial chef to be really smart." Shan Yu Caitian nodded and smiled, it seems that this Zhao Fu Qing really met a master.

Zhao Sheng Rong glared at Zhao Fu Qing, Zhao Fu Qingquan didn't see it, he just aimed his eyes at a figure, and then smiled, "Fifth brother, why didn't you come in to see the queen mother, are you afraid that the queen mother will eat you?" ”

"Ninth brother, you are really." Zhao Changde originally wanted to come over to watch a good show, but he didn't expect to be relieved by Zhao Fuqing's words, and when he was about to leave, he let him see the corner of his clothes, so he had to come over, "This king is just looking for a birthday gift for the queen mother." The queen mother, I hope to forgive her son's late arrival. As he spoke, he offered a jade ruyi.

"It's okay, show the prince a seat." Shan Yu Caitian said with a smile.

"Yes."

After seeing the two princes sit down, this is the second dish, and at this time, the food official spoke, "This dish is specially made by the imperial chef!" As he spoke, he gave the dish to the Queen Mother first, and suddenly his eight eyes swept to the plate again, this time still with a lid like last time.
