Chapter 20: Misery
The emperor's coming to Zixia Palace was a kind of charity for the queen, although he had a lot of dissatisfaction with Yun Yao in his heart, he didn't dare to say more.
"Your Majesty, I'm just talking, I don't mean anything else. The reason why Concubine Yun went out of the palace to pray for the emperor was that the emperor had just ascended the throne and had to pray a lot. I was just in a hurry, but I didn't expect Concubine Yun to be in danger. If he knew, he would never let Concubine Yun out of the palace. The concubine didn't mean to embarrass Concubine Yun. ”
"I know you're here for my good! Bring up the jade bracelet that was given to the queen. ”
In order to stabilize the harem, the emperor had to do this.
"Thank Emperor Longen!"
The queen opened the box and was overjoyed to see the exquisite jade bracelet. She thought that Concubine Yun must have offended the emperor somewhere, and the emperor suddenly treated her well. This jade jade bracelet was a tribute from the Southern Dynasty. The emperor rewarded her. His position in the emperor's heart has improved. The queen didn't know that the emperor did this for the sake of the queen's uncle, who was far away at the border, and was preparing for a big war. Stabilizing the queen is equivalent to stabilizing the heart of the queen's uncle.
"The emperor is coming! I've made a delicious imperial meal for you, come and taste it! ”
The emperor took out a silver needle and tried it, and then he tasted a bite of the queen's cooking, and almost didn't spit it out. I don't know what seasoning is misplaced, and the strange smell is really hard to swallow.
"What's the matter, Your Majesty, isn't the food cooked by the concubine herself delicious?"
"Delicious!"
"It's delicious, how can I look at you and frown."
"I'm not hungry, I can't swallow."
"It's definitely not the reason why the emperor is not hungry, what can I taste?"
The queen tasted it and immediately spit it out, what a taste it is! No wonder the emperor can't swallow it.
"The emperor forgives the sin! blamed the concubine for her poor cooking skills, used the wrong seasoning, and used Coptis chinensis as ginger powder. ”
"The queen is reckless in everything, you are not good at anything. But you have to study hard. ”
"The concubines respect the emperor's teachings."
The queen originally wanted to show her cooking skills in front of the emperor, but she didn't expect it to be self-defeating, and she was reprimanded by the emperor for making a fool of herself. The emperor eats imperial food every day, and he suffered this grievance. Huang Lian's suffering made him miserable.
"I still have some important things to do, the queen will go to bed early."
I heard that the emperor was leaving, how could the queen be willing. The emperor left this time, and he didn't know when he would come, so he knelt on the ground.
"Your Majesty, let's go to bed in Zixia Palace tonight! I beg the emperor not to leave, to stay, right? ”
Seeing the queen's pitiful appearance, the emperor did not insist on leaving, and acquiesced to sitting on the couch.
"The concubine asked the imperial kitchen to cook the imperial meal for the emperor again. I didn't expect the concubine to be reckless, which made the emperor unhappy. ”
"Don't mention the past, I want to listen to a tune, the queen I am a little bored, make up a song for me."
It's difficult for the queen to hastily learn musical instruments for a few days before entering the palace. I can only make up a tune or two. The queen opened the piano in fear, she regretted it a little, and she was not embarrassed if she didn't keep the emperor. The queen began to play, and the emperor closed his eyes and enjoyed the sound of the queen's piano. The piercing sound of the piano made the emperor's eyes open suddenly, and this performance made the emperor smile bitterly. The emperor stood up, and before the queen could react, he left Zixia Palace.
The emperor went to Haitang Palace, and when he saw Emperor Yun Yao, he felt very comfortable.
"Yun Yao has seen the emperor."
"Get up! Make me something delicious. ”
"It's so late, the emperor hasn't eaten yet, didn't he just go to Zixia Palace?"
"I went, but I didn't want to get along with the queen and came to you."
After a while, Yun Yao served a few dishes to the emperor. As soon as this dish was eaten, I heard the eunuch report that the queen had fainted. The emperor doesn't know the queen, is it a real halo or a fake halo? But had to go where the queen was.
