Chapter 64: Breaking Bad Habits

The emperor took advantage of the situation and hugged her waist, only to feel that the person in his arms was thin and soft, and there was a faint fragrance, not like the smell of incense, sweet grandma's, in short, it smelled good.

Yao Chuxi's legs were slightly numb, and he moved slightly, and the emperor felt it and let go of his hand.

"Leg numb?"

Yao Chuxi nodded and looked up at the emperor.

The rain and frost on the side and the others were silent when they saw that the two of them were so knowledgeable, and the falling snow crashed in without knowing the situation and was reprimanded by the rain.

There was no need to wait in the house, so it was left by the falling rain, and a few people came out to the west hall to talk to Han Shanggong.

Han Shanggong is sewing insoles in the house at the moment. Two pieces of thick cotton cloth together, and then sew the corners and corners, leave a hole to stuff in some cotton, and then sew the mouth to death, although it is thicker, but it is really warm.

Winter shoes will be a little heavier, the soles are high to prevent snow, and the thickness of the insoles makes the whole person seem to be half a head taller than usual.

"My eyes are really bad, and I can't sew these two insoles well."

Luoxue took out a sewn pair of insoles from the bamboo basket, pasted them on her face and rubbed them, "Who said that?" I think your sewing is very good, it is soft, and it must be very comfortable under your feet. ”

Han Shanggong looked at her with a smile, "This is still a failure, I want to make a pair for everyone in Yingxue Pavilion, and this will be given to Xiao Yongzi and them." ”

Falling Frost also came over at this time, "I will do it too, my mother taught me when she was at home, I can help you." ”

Han Shanggong nodded, took the needle and thread and handed it to her.

In fact, there is still no shortage of insoles for the palace people, but the Shangyi Supervisor and the Inner Palace Supervisor always make do with each other, and there is no difference between wearing and not wearing the insol.

Han Shanggong wanted to make a pair for each person, and then make two more for his master to keep for washing, which also saved the palace people from freezing their feet when they were on errands.

When serving the Queen Mother before, there was a eunuch who had chilblains on his feet, which was painful and itchy, and it was not good to serve the Queen Mother.

Han Shanggong thought about not letting them suffer from this kind of problem at a young age, so he could only take action himself.

Luoxue couldn't help much, so she watched with her face beside the two, occasionally pouring a glass of water for the two of them and adding a cup of tea.

Yao Chuxi continued to embroider patterns, and the emperor gently hugged her waist behind her back, resting his chin on her head, quietly watching her embroidery, and occasionally giving a little advice.

He didn't understand that his daughter's family was a female celebrity, but the most basic aesthetics were not bad.

After a while, Pan Zhenan came in, saw this scene, and paused before saying, "Your Majesty, it's done." ”

The emperor hummed and looked up at Pan Zhenan, "Let them do things cleanly." ”

"The minion has already ordered it to go down."

The emperor didn't say anything, and his eyes returned to the embroidered cloth in Yao Chuxi's hand.

Yao Chuxi knew in her heart that what Pan Zhenan had just said was referring to the Chen family's execution, but she was still calm on her face, as if she hadn't heard it.

Shang Gong, who taught her etiquette when she first entered the palace, said a lot, told her not to listen, not to look and not to talk nonsense, until now she remembers it vividly.

Emperors generally taboo women to participate in politics, which is an unwritten rule in all dynasties. The emperor occasionally mentioned two sentences in front of her, that is, trusting her, how could she live up to the emperor's trust.

After embroidering for a while, Yao Chuxi felt that his eyes were sour, and reached out to rub his eyes.

"Stop embroidering, rest your eyes." The emperor said.

Yao Chuxi nodded, and then was held by the emperor.

The two walked to the front room, and the emperor walked slowly and cautiously all the way, holding the softness of his palms tightly.

Luoxue also came back at this time, bringing two plates of dim sum from the tea room, and a sweet soup.

"I loved it when I was a kid." The emperor pointed to a plate of yellow and clear dim sum and said.

It was made of corn cake mixed with powdered sugar, which was fragrant and sweet.

There is nothing that the man in the royal family likes to eat or not, because he cannot be seen by others that he has a childlike heart, let alone that he is the emperor.

Only in front of Yao Chuxi did his eating and drinking seem casual.

"The concubines like it too." Yao Chuxi picked up a piece of powdered sugar that stuck to the plate next to him and handed it to the emperor.

There are few types of fruits produced in winter, and such a bowl of fruit soup is something that ordinary people dare not imagine.

In order to be cool in summer, ice cubes and honey are put in the fruit soup, and in order to make the master eat comfortably, the fruit soup in winter is deliberately boiled hot, and then add a little honey after a little cooling.

Luo Yu came over and took a small bowl, took out a full bowl from the cup containing the fruit soup and handed it to the emperor, and prepared to serve a second bowl to his master.

After the emperor took the fruit soup, he first handed it to Yao Chuxi.

"You like to eat this."

The irrefutable attitude had to be accepted by Yao Chuxi.

Then the rain gave the emperor another bowl.

With such a spoonful of fruit soup and a bite of snack, the cup and plate were empty in a short time.

"I'll go back first." The emperor stood up, and the rain hurriedly came over, because Pan Zhenan was not there, so she started to change clothes for Pan Zhenan.

Yao Chuxi also stood up, took the coat handed by Luo Yu, put it on for the emperor with Luo Yu, and said while carefully tying the knot around the emperor's waist, "It's been colder these days, the emperor should take good care of the dragon body." ”

The emperor agreed, and said something to tell her to pay attention to her body.

After putting on the outer clothes, Yao Chuxi and Luo Yu took the cloak again and carefully put it on for the emperor.

The emperor's cloak is better than Yao Chuxi's cloak material, and Yao Chuxi has never seen this kind of material. The inside of the cloak is velvet, and the outside is slippery, so that it is warm and does not get wet, rain or snow.

The cloak was dark gray, embroidered with a golden dragon flying through the clouds, and its body was faintly obscured by a few clouds. The dragon whisker embroidered as if it was alive, at a glance, it was Guan Shanggong's craftsmanship, even if it was not embroidered by her, it must have been from the hand of the best embroiderer in Shangyi Prison.

"The emperor has to pay attention to his body, don't miss the time of the meal in order to approve the folds."

Yao Chuxi still remembers that when he went to the Taihe Hall to accompany him a few times, the time of the emperor's meal was particularly unstable, one day early and one night, but most of them basically ate at night.

The emperor stretched out his hand and took her hand, while making it convenient for him to change his clothes in the rain, he looked at Yao Chuxi, "I remember, you also pay attention to your body, don't always embroider, you can do it occasionally, I'm afraid of hurting your eyes when it's long." ”

Yao Chuxi nodded with a smile.

As the night approached, it was cold again, and away from the daytime sun, a cold wind blew throughout the palace.

The emperor was approving the excerpts, and suddenly remembered what Yao Chuxi had said in the afternoon.

"Someone."

Pan Zhenan hunched his waist and walked in quickly, "What's the matter with the emperor?" ”

"Isn't it time for dinner?" The emperor asked with a cold face.

Pan Zhen settled down and replied, "Back to the emperor, your usual meal time is later than now, the slave does not dare to remind you, please forgive the emperor." ”

"That's it." The emperor stood up from the dragon case, "Let's set the meal." ”

Pan Zhenan agreed repeatedly, and then asked, "What does the emperor want to use today?" ”

"Just ask Yuan Shaoyu to watch and do it, I can't think of anything for a while."

Pan Zhenan called Duan Kui in and instructed him to go to the dining room to pass the meal.

To say that this Yao beauty really didn't come for nothing, two sentences can cure the emperor's bad habits, even Pan Zhenan has to admire.

In the past, the emperor also really respected the Chen family, but Pan Zhenan felt that the words respect and favor were not linked at all.

Just said that this meal matter, after the abolition, he said it over and over again, and even Pan Zhenan was annoyed by the chatter, but the emperor didn't listen to it once, let alone change it.

Pampering and pampering, if you are deeply petted, you will naturally love it, it seems that the emperor is attentive to Yao Meiren this time.

Pan Zhen'an rejoiced for Yao Meiren and the emperor in his heart, but his face did not show anything wrong.

"Come here." The emperor waved his hand to let Pan Zhenan pass.

"Your Majesty, is there anything else?"

"Yao Meiren's foot injury is quite serious, let the dining room serve her well, and cook whatever she wants." After speaking, the emperor paused, as if he remembered something, and then said, "What to eat is good for foot injuries?" ”

Pan Zhenan pondered for a while and replied, "The slave only remembers that he can't eat seafood, and he has to ask Manager Yuan to find out the rest." ”

"Then let Yuan Shaoyu watch and do it." After speaking, the emperor walked into the palace.

The two palace maids in the hall walked over one from the left and one from the right, and changed the emperor's clothes neatly.

Dinner arrived in a few moments, literally filling a whole table.

But the emperor has no appetite.

The eunuch took two chopsticks and meat to the plate in front of the emperor, but the emperor didn't even look at it, but kept looking at the fried bamboo shoots farthest away from him.

Pan Zhenan gave the eunuch a look, he was not stupid, and put two pieces of bamboo shoots into the emperor's plate.

This dish was originally made by Yuan Shaoyu to relieve the emperor's greasyness, so he only put a little oil, first fried the pot with meat foam, and then took out the meat foam and fried bamboo shoots.

Although this dish is simple and can be eaten by every family, Yao Chuxi has a good impression of this dish.

Although there are few ingredients, this dish is simple and refreshing, no matter how you eat it, you won't feel greasy, and it won't have the greasy taste of ordinary fried vegetables.

The emperor and Yao Chuxi often saw this dish when they dined together, and they liked it after a long time.

After eating some bamboo shoots, the emperor also ate the meat on the plate, ate another piece of braised pork, and then drank a small bowl of soup.

The soup is called assorted soup, which contains diced cucumbers, corn kernels, diced shallots and soaked fungus, and Yuan Shaoyu also added some pickled salty and fragrant diced ham to it, which is refreshing and tastes good in one bite.

It was also Yao Chuxi who liked to drink this soup, so the emperor liked it.

Because the method of this soup is simple and the materials used are not expensive, Yuan Shaoyu generally does not know how to make it, and he feels that he can't go to the table, and he is afraid that the emperor will not like it.
