Chapter 66: The Portal (5)
After seeing the dishes in person and selecting a few exquisite pastries, Ruyue finally put her mind at ease.|151 Kanshu.com Pure Text|.|" The craftsmanship of the small kitchen has become more and more sophisticated, and there are more and more patterns. β
Pei Shuang held Ruyue's hand, but his mind was not here: "Miss, the Liu sisters have become hot potatoes, and others are not hot at all." I can't take a sip of it, and my voice is gloomy. Why do we have to invite to the palace in a dignified manner, and it is still when the emperor is also there. The slave really can't figure it out! β
Ruyue didn't answer, but just said to herself: "The emperor likes osmanthus balls, remember to prepare some, and use the right to lunch as a dessert." β
In fact, it is precisely because the emperor is here that he invited a pair of sisters from the Liu family to come, so that he would not be overwhelmed. It is expected that they are solid pets, and they have to exert all their strength. Ruyue really wants to see what the woman who has been trained by Rubao's hand will be like when she is gentle and graceful.
"Miss, what are you thinking?" Pei Shuang looked at her a little stunned, and unconsciously lowered his eyebrows. "You really don't have to worry about Peishuang, this path was chosen by the slave maid herself, and the slave maid has no regrets. What's more, Xu Miao is a person who knows the cold and the warm very well, and he will not treat slaves and maids badly. β
I didn't want to say these things because I was sad. It's a pity that Ruyue also understands in her heart that some things don't hurt if you don't say them. "Maybe you have your own plans, but Peishuang, do you know how heartbroken I am? The taste of liver and intestines is really uncomfortable! β
"Miss......" Pei Shuang's grievances that were finally hidden, because Ruyue's words poured out like a river and a sea, almost tearing her heart apart.
"You know, I have always been on bad terms with Rubao, although I am not close to each other, but you are a sister who accompanies me day and night, and this heart-wrenching pain is no less than my loss of Luan'er. Peishuang, why are you? β
"Pei Shuang just wants to be by your side for the rest of your life." Still unwilling to tell the truth, Pei Shuang didn't want to take out the words that were in his heart, so he forced a smile: "Miss, for you, maybe it's not a good place to eat." But for slaves, it doesn't matter. At the age of a slave maid, it is already past the time to get married, even if she enters the mansion of a large family, in the end it is just the life of a concubine. Over the years, the slave maid has seen all the intrigue in the palace, and she is really tired.
It is necessary to do your best for the young lady, but the slave and maid themselves do not want to get into the house and live like that. The left and right are just looking for a sustenance, Xu Miao treats the slave and the maid seriously, which is enough to make the slave and the maid willing. β
Ruyue stared at Pei Shuang's cheeks and was moved: "If he treats you sincerely, I wouldn't be so panicked in my heart, Pei Shuang, Xu Miao is not as simple as you think." He ......, "I don't know if I should remind Pei Shuang anymore that Xu Miao may have something to do with Luan'er's death."
Ruyue is really afraid that Pei Shuang has other plans, and the situation is even more dangerous. She really didn't understand how much Pei Shuang knew. The previous incident was ostensibly blamed on the queen, but I hope Pei Shuang also thinks that there will be no more chaos in the end.
At this point, it doesn't hurt. Ruyue crossed her heart, Luan'er could never come back from the dead, instead of struggling for revenge, it was more meaningful to keep the people around her. "Don't talk about it, the emperor is coming soon, help me to meet him!"
Seeing that the young lady's sad face was still unabated, Pei Shuang also felt very unbearable: "Don't worry, the slave knows how to protect herself." β
The Liu sisters were invited to come with the emperor.
This is the second time Ruyue has met their sisters, and compared to the last time they met in the palace, the two sisters were more calm and elegant, wearing light pink and green clothes, and they didn't feel vulgar when they looked at them.
Ruyue naturally put on the demeanor of the host, and carefully described the matching of dishes. When the emperor heard the joy, he couldn't help but look at the brows of light, as if he was happy to enjoy the blessings of all people.
"Cuiping." Li Guiren looked at the table full of delicacies, curled her lips and called the maidservant behind her.
Ruyue couldn't help but be a little surprised, her eyes were slightly bent and her eyes were uncertain: "But don't these delicacies match the taste, or do you want to add something more?" β
Kang Guiren smiled lightly, with a lot of humility: "If the concubine Niangniang is not to blame, it should be the guest who is as the host." But the concubine and her sister have been vegetarians since childhood, and they have prepared their own meals, so they have the right to add vegetables, and they also ask the mother for permission. β
In front of the emperor, Kang Guiren first asked for his permission. Ruyue couldn't help but think in her heart, this was clearly a reflection of her power in the harem, and even the emperor had no way to interfere. Since you can see it thoroughly, there is no need to compete with them for a while.
Ruyue smiled generously, and motioned to Pei Shuang and Xi'er to change the dish in front of Sister Liu: "What Sister Mian said, it was the negligence of the palace." said that he invited his two younger sisters to lunch, but he couldn't even think about what dishes were suitable. Please don't mind, sisters. β
Since their words were not directed at the emperor, Ruyue also had the right to say something between sisters, so it was logical to change the dishes and dissipate their anger between talking and laughing.
After the dish color was changed, Ruyue took a closer look, several plates of flowers and the like, washed and removed the residual yellow old leaves, and rested on the jasper plate in its original appearance, which was really amazing. "Your Majesty, no wonder the two younger sisters are beautiful and beautiful, and they are as angry as orchids, which is very related to this diet. Ruyue has gained insight today! β
The emperor snorted lightly, and added a little praise to his smile: "It's like you, and I'm very curious when I see it for the first time." But I didn't know that this flower still tastes like this! β
Ruyue covered her mouth and nose and smiled warmly: "I'm afraid it's the best seasoning, it must be honey, right?" β
Li Guiren nodded lightly unconsciously, and a pair of ruby rice bead earrings swayed, and her appearance was dazzling: "If you are a concubine, you are really smart, and you can guess it." As she spoke, she picked up a peony with her hand, and with a slight force on her fine fingers, she tore off a petal, gently put it in her mouth, and ate it with a taste.
"Huh." Ruyue laughed crisply: "If you don't eat the fireworks in the world, you are probably talking about the two sisters!" Your Majesty, the concubines really look at it, if they can get the two sisters to accompany each other from time to time, it will really be a blessing for the concubines. β
Li Guiren didn't expect Ruyue to suddenly say such a headless sentence, the flower in her hand didn't hold it, and it fell softly on her knee.
The emperor glanced at her, turned back to Ruyue and said, "I also have this in mind. The time for Mianmian and Su to enter the palace is still shallow, and it is best for Ruyue to train you personally. β
"The emperor's ......" Li Guiren opened his mouth first, but was blocked by Kang Guiren.
"The emperor Mianmian and his sister naturally hope to rely on the blessing of the concubine and be educated by the mother. But the affairs of the harem are cumbersome and heavy, and the mother is already tired of work, and the concubines and sisters really dare not worry about it anymore. "Kang Guiren is even more dignified and decent.
The emperor didn't make a sound, but only took a piece of crispy meat and ate it himself.
Ruyue has been by the emperor's side for many years, knowing that he is not happy, she inevitably smiled but said sharply: "Kang Guiren does not need to worry about this palace, if the sisters of the harem can behave in a proper manner, be cautious, and regard the palace rules as the essentials of virtue, the palace will naturally have less to worry about." What's more, having two younger sisters by your side is also a blessing for this palace. β
The emperor sandwiched a piece of emerald green vegetables, put it in Ruyue's bowl, and said thoughtfully: "I know that you like to eat this the most, don't talk about it, and go in." I'm hungry, I'm going to feel distressed. β
"Emperor Xie!" Ruyue smiled softly, as if no one was around, and the emperor stared at each other affectionately.
"Chang Yonggui." The emperor was on the rise, and a smile spread to his lips: "Spread my will, pick two of the best imperial chefs, and take care of the concubine's diet full-time." β
"Huh." Chang Yonggui responded with a smile. Listening to the emperor Wen Cun and said to Concubine Ru: "The weather is getting hotter, maybe because of the loss of appetite, I see that you have lost a lot." Watch your body, don't let me worry about it. β
Ruyue smiled like a spring breeze, full of the tenderness of her little daughter. "Emperor Xie, concubine."
Li Guiren only felt that it was hot and dry, and the fire was like a heat wave, surging up one by one. "Your Majesty, you don't know, if the concubine is ruled with an iron fist, the harem is finally a lot more peaceful. It's just that our sisters are from a reckless background, not as delicate as the rest of the concubines in the palace. Isn't the concubine extremely guilty, and she has to follow the nobles and cast herself into the river to apologize. β
"Flocculating." Kang Guiren was a little angry, so he had to hold his sister's hand, and said bitterly: "In front of the emperor and Concubine Ru, you are still at home, so unrestrained." We have indeed rescued the nobles, but we can't chew the root of the tongue with our temperament. β
The emperor put down his chopsticks, and Xi'er hurriedly handed over the bright yellow golden silk brocade. After wiping the corners of his lips, the emperor casually threw the brocade and dropped it on the cloisonnΓ© lotus leaf plate containing crispy meat.
Ruyue took the lead in getting up and confessed: "The concubine is too talkative, which makes Long Xin unhappy, and asks the emperor to punish him." β
Seeing this situation, the Liu sisters couldn't help but kneel on the ground and said in unison: "The concubine is too talkative, please punish the emperor." β
"I thought I could have a good meal, but I couldn't be at peace." The emperor didn't look at the Liu family, but only said to Ruyue: "There are many people in the harem who rely on my favor and do not abide by the discipline, so you will work hard for me." In the future, you will be sure to think about it, and you will talk to them about what you should say. β
"The concubine obeys." Ruyue leaned down lightly, and no one could see the smugness on the corners of her lips. There are too many women in the harem, but the emperor's heart is only one. Only those who can really penetrate the Sacred Heart are the few victors, and how long can they bear grace with their beauty, they can really be counted with their fingers.
"Return to the Temple of Nourishing the Heart." The emperor got up and gave an order to Chang Yonggui.
Ruyue raised her head, with a slight reluctance in her eyes, and her feelings were sincere: "The concubine sends the emperor." "151 Kanshu.com .
