On the square table, a hundred birds returned to their nests, carving them as if they had come to life, so that Yao Chuxi didn't dare to take a bite, for fear of ruining the appearance of the dish.

The more common dish is the braised crucian carp closest to her, followed by the more remote lotus root pork rib soup. Some of the rest of the dishes she had never eaten but could be named, and some of them had never even seen them, let alone their names.

"Relax, this crucian carp is good." The emperor picked up the chopsticks and clicked Yao Chuxi.

"Your Majesty." Yao Chuxi trembled and ate a piece of fish.

Halfway through dinner, a palace maid hurriedly came to the Taihe Palace, Duan Kui should have stopped her when he saw it, but after seeing someone coming, he put her in.

"Your Majesty, the palace maid of Fengluan Palace, Zhen Qing, came to report that the queen mother had an unbearable headache, and I am afraid that she has committed an old illness."

Hearing this, Yao Chuxi frowned, was the queen's head too coincidental? Quietly glanced at the emperor, he didn't say anything, just the hand holding the chopsticks trembled.

"Your Majesty, where is the queen mother?" Pan Zhenan asked again.

"Has the Imperial Doctor been there?" The emperor put down his chopsticks, and it seemed that he was going to visit the queen.

"Imperial Physician Song and Imperial Physician Yu have already gone."

"Got it." The emperor stood up and tidied up the hem of his clothes, and Pan Zhenan walked over with his head down to put on the emperor's coat.

"Send her back." After the emperor was dressed neatly, he only said this, and left without looking back.

Yao Chuxi was deflated for a while, and his originally straight back softened instantly. This time she was sent back, it will be difficult to accept favor in the future, not to mention those unforgiving mouths in the back garden, what do you have to arrange her into?

"Yao Cairen, please?" Pan Zhenan's apprentice Duan Kui said.

The master asked him to send Yao Cairen back, and he naturally had to listen to the master's words.

On the way back to Yunyan Pavilion, Yao Chuxi was like a frosted eggplant, listless, completely devoid of the tension and excitement when he went. Raised his arm and smelled the fragrance on his body, the fragrance was a little pungent, as if he was laughing at her.

Today, the master went to bed for the first time, and the rain and snow did not have to follow, so he packed up the house and picked up old clothes to sew and mend. They have been wearing this palace maid's clothes for two years, and the wash has faded, and they used to wait only for when the master will be favored to get a new dress to wear, but when it is really time to be favored, they retreated, and the rain only said that they could not let others look at us and began to be frivolous, and the snow immediately picked up what my sister said, I understand.

Jiang Liu had already gone back to the shop and was ready to sleep, it was a good day all day, and he must have a good dream at night. Just as he was about to fall asleep, there was a knock outside the door, which disrupted his sleepiness, and he had to quickly put on his clothes and shoes and prepare to open the door.

He thought as he walked, it was really strange, it stands to reason that the master would not come back so soon after the first time he went to bed, could it?

A sense of uneasiness instantly swept through his body, and he almost ran to the door, asking a little nervously, "Who is it?" ”

"Jiang Liu, it's me."

Listening to the master's voice, Jiang Liu quickly opened the door, greeted Yao Chuxi in, and thanked Duan Kui before leaving.

"Little master, why are you so fast..."Jiang Liu's question was just about to be exported, and the remaining half was swallowed back.

The corners of Yao Chuxi's slightly red eyes are already the best answer.

Xiao Meiren couldn't fall asleep tossing and turning on the bed, the window paper was broken, and a few mosquitoes flew in, which made her heart very messy, plus Yao Chuxi drove tonight, she was even more anxious.

Hearing a sound outside, she got up, picked up the hole and looked into the courtyard, and saw the rain and snow coming out of the small room next to the east hall, and helped Yao Chuxi into the east hall.

Counting the hours carefully, is it too fast? How long has she been there before she returns? No, the more Xiao Meiren thought about it, the more strange she felt.

Not only Xiao Meiren, but Lanyue Pavilion has also been paying attention to the movements of Yunyan Pavilion, I heard that Yao Cairen came back early, who doesn't understand what happened?

After breakfast, Cao Meiren took Tan Cairen and Hu Cairen to the gate of Yunyan Pavilion, and sarcastically said Yao Chuxi.

"Do the two younger sisters know the story of returning to Zhao?"

"Yo, I really know what my sister said." Several women pinched handkerchiefs to cover their mouths, and they couldn't stop laughing.

They don't have any affectionate intentions, they are all rivals in love, where does friendship come from? It's just to see who is favored, and to see who is out of favor, they don't want to see each other.

"Sister, if this were me, I would be embarrassed to go out." Hu Cairen's voice was very loud, for fear that the people in the courtyard wall would not be able to hear.

"It's too much!" Luoxue was cleaning up the dishes and almost broke the plate in her hand when she listened to the words outside.

"Falling snow!" Luoyu pinched Luoxue's wrist, shook his head silently, and said, "The little master is in a bad mood, don't make any more trouble." ”

Luoxue didn't answer again, pouted and walked away with the dishes in his hands.

Falling rain is also angry, but it is useless to be angry. After thinking about it, Falling Rain had a good idea, and opened the door with a wooden basin full of water for washing dishes, and it was all raised outside the wall with a bang.

"You!" Cao Meiren pulled the water stains on the hem of her skirt with one hand, and pointed to the rain and said, "This is the flower and silk material rewarded by the emperor, do you want to take your life!" ”

"Cao Meiren, I'm sorry, the slave maid was unintentional." He immediately knelt on the ground and admitted his mistake when it rained, and his attitude was very sincere.

"Excuse me, is it useful?" Cao Mei's face turned red, you must know that this skirt is her favorite and most reluctant to wear, and it is also the only skirt that the emperor rewarded her, if she hadn't come to laugh at Yao Chuxi today, she wouldn't have worn it, and she couldn't wait to take the incense case to offer.

"The slave maid didn't know that Cao Mei was outside the wall, and thought it was a palace maid who was chatting, otherwise she wouldn't dare to splash water outside the wall with a hundred dares from the slave maid!"

As soon as these words came out, Cao Meiren was angry, if this matter was in front of Ji Linghai, I am afraid she would not be able to get good fruits to eat.

"Sister, don't be angry with such a little palace maid, her master is not favored, it's enough." Tan Cairen patted Cao Meiren's back and said in a pinch tone.

Cao Meiren had no choice but to forget it, glared at the rain fiercely, and turned around and went back to Lanyue Pavilion.

After a while, the door of Yunyan Pavilion became lively.

This time it was not a talented and beautiful woman who came, but the emperor.

Seeing that the emperor had come up to the back garden, the women in each courtyard came out and surrounded the Yunyan Pavilion in front and back, left and right.

Yao Chuxi was in a bad mood, and he only used a little bit for breakfast, so that he didn't have time to put on makeup when he saw the emperor.

"Are you mad about what happened last night?" The emperor asked.

"Concubines... Can't. ”

"If you're angry, you can say it." The emperor's voice still didn't have any temperature.

Yao Chuxi paused, and then said, "The queen is the lord of the six palaces, and the mother is the world, if the mother is sick, both the emperor and the concubines are panicked, so everything is focused on the mother's body." ”

"You're sensible." The emperor stretched out his hand to help Yao Chuxi, who was kneeling on the ground, up, and this was their first physical contact.

After standing firmly, Yao Chuxi gently parted the emperor's hand, but blushed.

When it rains and snows, you don't have to go in to serve, you just serve tea and go in.

The best tea in Yunyan Pavilion is probably not as good as the tea leaves of Taihedian.

But serving tea is etiquette, if there is tea and not serving, it is a crime, and if you think about it seriously, you will lose your head.

The emperor picked up the teacup, first pinched the lid and skimmed the broken tea leaves on the edge of the cup, then sniffed it and took a sip, "What kind of tea is this?" ”

"Back to the emperor, this is the flower that the concubine picked last year was dried and cooked with bamboo leaves and the tea distributed by the inner palace supervisor every month, and the concubine felt good when she drank it, but it was not worth mentioning compared to the tea that the emperor drank, and I hope the emperor will not blame."

"What is there to blame?" The emperor smiled, "It's okay, this tea is very suitable for my appetite." ”

"The concubine Xie Emperor does not dislike it."

The emperor likes to be polite and sensible, and Yao Chuxi yesterday and today left a good impression in the emperor's heart.

"Isn't your Cloud Smoke Pavilion a little small? Why don't you go back and give you a bigger yard? ”

"No, you don't." Yao Chuxi said it almost without hesitation, and only after the words came out did he remember that it was the emperor sitting opposite, so his attitude softened a little and said, "Although Yunyan Pavilion is small, the concubines live comfortably, and the furnishings and objects here are familiar with the concubines in the past two years, thank the emperor for his kindness." ”

The emperor didn't answer again, just put down the teacup and stood up, "I will go first." ”

What does that mean? Is the emperor angry? Should you keep the emperor out of your voice? Why did you come here for a cup of tea? For a while, a lot of questions poured into Yao Chuxi's head, and he even forgot to salute, and the emperor walked to the door and looked back at her sluggish appearance.

Falling rain and snow and Jiang Liu were laughing happily outside the door, thinking that this time the emperor came in person, to see which one of them was not long-eyed and sarcastic Yunyan Pavilion. In a blink of an eye, the emperor walked out, jumped the three of them, and knelt down busily, but the emperor didn't look at them much, and walked straight over.

"Little master? What's wrong with you? After Luoyu entered the house, he asked Yao Chuxi.

"It's raining, but the emperor is angry?" Yao Chuxi asked reluctantly.

After listening to this, Luo Yu thought about it and replied, "The slave maid thinks that there should be no, because before the emperor left, he instructed Gonggong Pan to send some things to Yunyan Pavilion after returning to the Taihe Palace, little master, do you think, if the emperor is angry, will he give things?" ”

"That's what you said." Yao Chuxi muttered quietly.

The emperor really said a lot, and Duan Kui came with a group of little eunuchs around a stick of incense.

Each eunuch held a square plate, and there was something in each square plate. The eunuch at the beginning was holding a pot of tea, and the jar was carved with the words Longjing before the rain, which was in line with Yao Chuxi's intentions. The eunuch behind him was holding two bead hairpins, one was a butterfly bead hairpin with a pendant, the butterfly really seemed to be about to fly, and the other was a plain hairpin inlaid with round jade, which was plain, but it was elegant and generous. The eunuch in the back was holding three sets of skirts, two of which were apricot red, one was embroidered with qionghua and one was embroidered with camellia, and the rest was embroidered with bamboo in the sky blue, which was eye-catching.

The rest of the things were two plates of pastries and a bracelet, Luo Xue gently picked up the bracelet and turned it upside down, feeling that the weight was not light, and quickly put it back in the box, if the bracelet of the imperial gift was broken, I was afraid that ten heads would not be enough to cut off.
