Chapter 17: A two-pronged approach

Murong Zhao suffered a lot of injuries, and it took two months to gradually get better.

During this period, the holy driver returned to Beijing, knowing that Murong Zhao was injured, severely punished the palace people up and down the horse farm, and the military attache who taught the prince to ride a horse that day. Even the little eunuch who was close to the twelve princes was also implicated and sent to the court. Every three or five days, the Holy Driver would definitely come to check on Murong Zhao's injuries in person.

I was afraid that these two months would delay Murong Zhao's studies, so I sent the Nine Emperor Princes to accompany Murong Zhao to study every day after school.

And Yang Qiqi rarely went to the study on errands in the past two months, either in the small kitchen of the Wude Palace, or in Murong Zhao's bedroom, taking care of his daily life. Ruyi looked very red-eyed, but since Mama Chen was punished by Yang Qiqi and made a faceless fuss, even she was warned by Qiao Neisi, and her actions were restricted a lot.

Ruyi was angry, but there was no way to do it.

At dusk that day, Yang Qiqi was boiling soup in the small kitchen again. The aroma wafted out of the window, and soon the whole yard was filled with the aroma of food.

Wen Yaojia helped Yang Qiqi to start, smelling the aroma, it was simply salivating. She swallowed her saliva and sighed: "With my sister's ability, I can go to the imperial dining room to cook imperial meals for His Majesty!" ”

Yang Qiqi took the steamer off the stove, opened the cage drawer, and the crystal clear pastries emerged from the curling aroma, and he looked very appetizing.

Wen Yaojia's praise couldn't help but sigh about the days she spent in the Zhang family in her previous life.

Zhang Zonghe's mother is a very tricky and exquisite person, because she married Yang Yuyan as the daughter of the Yang family, her mother-in-law is very disgusted with her. Let her come to her every day to set the rules.

It seems that since she married into the Zhang family, her mother-in-law's daily diet and daily life are no longer handed over to the maids below, and she has to do everything herself. Even things like decoction of medicine when you are sick have to do it. The torment that lasted for more than ten years really sharpened her ability.

Speaking of vegetarian food and medicinal diet, she worked hard to invite two masters from Mingdong Dayan to teach. I did it all the time, and I did it for more than a year before I got my appearance. But the mother-in-law never said a good word.

couldn't embarrass her in eating, and her mother-in-law picked on the needlework again. The tempered Yang Qiqi alone can simply wrap the clothes of the Zhang family all year round. Even the embroidery of her sister-in-law's marriage is from her hand.

Now that I think about it, those years were really full of tears every day and every night. But now, she wants to thank her mother-in-law for honing her. Those things that used to look at Rausch can now come in handy.

Yang Qiqi smiled and said, "My little trick is really not enough to see people." Taste it, will it be a little sweet? ”

Wen Yaojia took a bite of Yang Qiqi's hand, and she just wanted to shed tears when it was delicious. "Just right, sweet but not greasy, with the fragrance of flowers and fruits. It melts in your mouth, and when it comes to your throat, it's all sweet! Wen Yaojia said, looking at the plate of snacks pitifully, and said, "You want to send it to the Baifu Hall again?" Yang Qiqi nodded silently, Wen Yaojia pursed her lips and said: "You are good at wind and rain, you go to the Baifu Hall every morning and evening, but the Queen Mother may not be able to eat." I've heard that most of the Queen Mother was thrown away. ”

What the Queen Mother likes to eat, whether she will eat it or not, Yang Qiqi is very clear.

In her last life, the Queen Mother loved vegetarian food. What kind of wind blows in the palace, what rain falls outside the palace. Even the older ladies of the royal family outside the palace followed the vegetarian fast. The Queen Mother likes to eat sweet but not greasy things, and for a while, the Zhang family helped Zhang Zhaoyi's twelve princes to please the Queen Mother, and once inquired about the Queen Mother's eating habits.

She also knew that the Queen Mother had lost her appetite for a while. Not long after she returned to the Yang family, the emperor posted the emperor's list, looking for masters who were good at vegetarian food in the world to enter the palace to regulate the diet for the queen mother. It was the Yang family who found the master of Quansu Zhai to send it to the palace, and was praised by the queen mother and the emperor.

To deal with the Queen Mother, it will never be wrong to start eating. What's more, there is more than one queen mother living in the Baifu Palace, and there is also a princess of Tong'an who can't eat in the inner palace.

Yang Qiqi put the soup, pastries, and vegetarian dishes in the food box, and said with a smile: "Whether the Queen Mother eats it or not, Her Royal Highness's heart is fulfilled." ”

Wen Yaojia took the initiative to take the food box and followed Yang Qiqi to the Queen Mother's bedroom.

After the beginning of summer, the weather in Beijing is getting hotter and hotter. The shadows of the trees outside the Baifu Hall are green, cast on the window paper, which makes people feel exceptionally cool.

The Queen Mother held a Buddhist scripture in her hand and sat on the couch by the long window.

Hui Silk holds the Wufu Shou red lacquer tray, on which are delicate dots. The sweet fragrance comes from afar, and it is very fresh and pleasant. The Queen Mother didn't move, and said indifferently: "Here again?" ”

Hui Silk smiled back, "Here, today is still a soup, a plate of snacks, and a plate of vegetarian dishes." Just looking at it makes me very appetizing. I don't know where the Wude Hall invited the cooks. The eleventh prince is also a heart, not only preparing it for you every day, but also preparing a small plate for the slave maid. In the past two months, the dishes have been changed to flowers, and they have not been the same for a day! ”

When the Queen Mother heard this, she didn't raise her eyelids, and said lightly: "You have eaten everything?" ”

Hui Silk said: "The slave and maid saw that they were all good things, and it was a pity not to eat them, so they tasted them." Not to mention our small kitchen, I'm afraid that even His Majesty's imperial kitchen can't compare. ”

The Queen Mother was quite surprised and asked, "Is it really so delicious?" ”

Hui Silk smiled and said, "You taste?" ”

The Queen Mother tilted her head, looking uninterested, and said, "If you are willing to eat, you can divide it, just don't dangle in front of my eyes." That kid always reminded me of his mother. Thinking of her mother, those bad past events in the past drilled into her head, and she was very upset! ”

Hui Silk turned around, handed the tray to the palace maid who followed, and waved them all down, before saying: "After all, everyone is gone, dust to dust, and soil to earth." Why should you ......?"

"I can't get by, I can't get through!" The Queen Mother hung her head, although her appearance was faint, but her whole body exuded a coldness, so that Hui Silk did not dare to say more.
