Chapter 19, the Queen Mother Arrives (I)
Wei Zhu was ordered to give a reward of silver to the dining room of the palace, looked at Chu Dakuan, who was as fat as a pig, and said in his heart what kind of delicacies and seas this dead fat man made, and even called Long Live Lord to break the rule of "eating no more than three" in the past!
Chu Dakuan smiled and accepted the reward, he took a lot of thought to this dish, not to mention that the selection of materials must be excellent, the knife work must be first-class, and the pancake is also extraordinary, it must be rolled out thin and tough, this is his own unique skill! He knew that Wei Zhu was also the number one person in front of the emperor, so he leaned closer and whispered, "Grandpa Wei must not have had time to eat at this time, right?" There are still leftovers of this assorted dish and roast duck, if my father-in-law doesn't dislike it......"
Wei Zhu said: "This ...... Not really, right? "I refuse on my lips, but in my heart I can't wait to taste what kind of delicious food it is.
After today, the dishes are not fresh, and the duck meat is afraid that it will be spoiled, of course Chu Dakuan doesn't mind using these to buy a good one for the deputy chief manager in front of the palace, so he politely invited him in to enjoy the food.
The dormitory of the Ning Palace.
Su Curtain was broken, and when he started eating, he still had a little elegance, but later, he almost didn't grab it with Xuan Ye! A table of things, Su Lian originally thought that he couldn't finish eating, where did he think that his appetite was so big!! I've never seen him eat so well before!
Pillowed on Xuan Ye's arm, Su Curtain hiccuped happily, and as soon as he grabbed it, he forgot that his stomach capacity was not large, and he accidentally ate it.
Xuan Ye had a soft look in his eyes: "Su Su, in a few months, after entering the ambush, I will come to the palace to reside, and then I will be able to meet you day by day." ”
Su Curtain originally squinted his eyes, as if he hadn't slept yet, but when he heard this, his heart was pounding unexpectedly, and the words in his mouth couldn't help but slow down by half a beat: "If you don't come, just come, don't bring others, otherwise I'd rather you don't come!" "If he wants to bring other concubines, Su Curtain would rather he not come.
Xuan Ye scratched Su Liang's palm and said with a smile: "I know that you are very jealous, and you won't bring anyone else!" ”
Su Lian couldn't help but be full of joy in his heart.
"But—" Xuan Ye changed his words, "maybe the Imperial Mother and the Queen Mother will come together." ”
Su Lian immediately collapsed his face, the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother? Su Curtain is really a little afraid, her current identity is their son (grandson) raised in the palace with a small promise, in the palace before, she is not even qualified to ask for peace concubine, if these two come, Su Curtain really doesn't know how to deal with it!
Xuan Ye explained: "I want to come to the palace to escape the summer, just don't bring a concubine, the imperial mother and the queen mother, always have to ask if Yiju comes to the summer together, if you don't even ask, it is unfilial." ”
Su Lian hummed sullenly, in ancient times, filial piety was emphasized, and the emperor, as a model in the world, must be filial everywhere, and no one can have the slightest criticism.
"Don't worry, I'm here." Xuan Ye clenched Su Lian's hand.
Su Lian was depressed, and now he could only hope that the two old men would not come to the palace to escape the summer.
In June, the weather is hot and dry, fortunately there are many landscapes and trees in the palace, it is refreshing and pleasant, the boxy day in the palace is only afraid that it is tormented, so just now on the third day of the first month, there was news in the palace that the emperor wants to come to the Changchun Garden Palace to escape the summer, and there are no concubines in the same industry, only the eldest brother Baoqing, the prince Baocheng...... There is also the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother, Borzigit.
Su Lian didn't know whether to be glad or what, the first giant didn't come, but the queen mother was coming! Su Lian couldn't help but think about what the queen mother in those court dramas looked like - well, stereotyped, serious, old-fashioned, because her husband died and she had been widowed for many years, so menopausal syndrome was frequent...... His favorite thing to do was to inflict all kinds of physical and mental abuse on the concubines of the emperor's sons......
Thinking of this, Su Lian couldn't help but shudder in his heart, and hurriedly ordered the sewing room to make a full of flag uniforms! When the Queen Mother came, her wearing Hanfu was a big picky point!!
Mama Ye saw Su Lai's nervousness, so she comforted her: "Rest assured, the Queen Mother is very kind." ”
Where can Su Lian listen to it now, that is the Queen Mother, if there is really a conflict with her, Xuan Ye is afraid that it will be inconvenient for him to intercede for him because of filial piety! What Su Lian can do now is to try her best not to be picky about the Queen Mother!
Hurriedly found a few flag uniforms made last year in the box, put on the flowerpot bottom shoes that were almost moldy, and now the most important thing is to find all the rules that have been left behind for a year!
The clothes were some gaudy begonia red twined peony flag clothes, and the bottom of the flower pot was a full three-inch high white porcelain soled shoes.
Su Curtain took two steps slowly, and felt that his feet were not very stable, alas, he had been throwing away ——, for so long, and he was really not used to wearing such a body at first glance! The current Manchurian cheongsam is still very different from the cheongsam of later generations, not only the length and the amount of exposure, but also the flag dress of this era is a straight style, which does not set off any figure at all, and the style is also a little old-fashioned, in short, it is far inferior to the flowing Hanfu.
But no matter how much you don't like it, Su Lian must start getting used to it from now on.
At this juncture when the strings were tight, Mama Ye finally reported that Wang Yan and Si Yan had almost learned the etiquette and could come to serve. Alas, this is also the only fortunate thing in misfortune, Su Curtain urged several times before, and Mama Ye said that the rules are not Guan Yunyun, and now that they have learned kung fu for half a year, their mother and daughter are finally out of school!
In the afternoon of the same day, Su Lian wore a round-necked placket shirt with a newly cut lotus root pink honeysuckle pattern in the needlework room, the background color was quite right, and the bottom of the flower pot was also replaced with a pair of novel sandalwood shoes with blue and white bottom folded pomegranates.
Su Lian couldn't help but feel a little happy in his heart, and sat on the couch of the second beauty, and saw the two people coming around from the glass screen, a woman in her forties wearing a blue-brown ordinary style palace costume and a girl in a green chrysanthemum palace dress, and her behavior was no different from that of the grandmother palace maid of others.
"The slave has invited the mother!" Wang Yan came in with the four concubines and knelt down and kowtowed, and there was a bit of excitement in her voice.
Su Lian raised his hand and said, "Get up, let me take a good look at you!" Su Lian's eyes were full of joy, "I haven't seen it for a long time, and when I see it at first glance, I almost can't recognize it!" But Mama Ye's contribution to teaching the rules, this mother and daughter seem to have changed people, not only their appearance is a little whiter, but their demeanor is very different from the original peasant servant.
The mother and daughter got up, and their eyes were full of excitement and joy. Su Lian took a closer look and found that they had lost a few points, especially Siyan, who was originally chubby and had a thinner waist. I also know that it must be a little more difficult for them to learn the rules than to learn the rules for coating.
