showed the gentlest smile and said: "My sister manages the harem really well, and the emperor has more time to accompany my sister." ”

The emperor didn't answer directly, but said: "If Concubine Ai is fine, go back first, there are still many things to deal with here." ”

I stayed up for a long time last night to sleep, and I'm still very tired.

Concubine De hurriedly left.

Out of the imperial study, Concubine De's mood was not good, she didn't like anything, and Qiu Xin, who was walking behind, was even more cautious.

With a "snap", she turned around and slapped Qiu Xin's face.

The sudden action made Qiu Xin unprepared, the tray in his hand fell to the ground, and the bowl and spoon also fell to the ground and fell to pieces.

"The mother slave is wrong." Qiu Xin hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy, she knew in her heart that Concubine De was finding fault, but what could she do?

Concubine De snorted coldly and said, "You dare to break such a precious bowl, go and receive the punishment yourself." ”

Qiu Xin shouted again and again, "Niang Niang spare her life", but it was useless.

Concubine De knew that Qiu Xin was the queen's person, so she ...... With an autumn heart, you can torture slowly.

As soon as Concubine De walked away, Gonggong De came out, looked at Qiu Xin who was kneeling on the ground, and sighed: "Let's be slaves, even if there is a grievance in our hearts, we have to swallow it in our stomachs, the miscellaneous family knows that you are wronged, but this is also a last resort." ”

He saw it all in his eyes, and it was obvious that Concubine De was finding fault.

Qiu Xin stood up and cried, "But ......"

Gonggong De sighed: "You are an understanding person, you should know who your sins are for, rest assured, I will not treat you badly after the incident." ”

He is naturally towards the queen.

Qiu Xin put away the bowl, and then went to receive the punishment.

After all, Father-in-law De couldn't bear it, and gave Qiu Xin a brand, so that he could be lighter.

Concubine De went back directly, and Gonggong Gui asked cautiously, "What did the emperor say?" ”

He guessed that the emperor would explain it to him.

Concubine De glanced at Duke De and said: "It's the same as what you said, the emperor said that it was because it was too late last night, and he didn't want to wake me up, so he went to the queen's side, but something was wrong today, in the past, I said let the emperor go to the queen's side, and the emperor was perfunctory, but today he didn't say a word, you say, is the emperor interested in the queen?" ”

I have never been so worried in so many years.

Father-in-law Gui did not dare to persuade, nor could he persuade.

Ban Xiang said: "Since the emperor has said this, it proves that the emperor still thinks of Niangniang in his heart." ”

With the words of Father-in-law Gui, Concubine De felt a lot better.

It was close to noon, and Concubine De had lunch and was about to rest.

In the past, the emperor would come over to accompany her, but today I saw that the emperor was busy with government affairs, so I didn't think much about it.

Staying in the palace was originally just a bait, Lin Zifu knew her position very well, and promised the queen that she would compete for her favor, so she had to take practical action.

Stir-fried lily with celery, stewed chicken with ginseng, and yam cake, etc., I made eight dishes and one soup, and none of the dishes had medicine in them.

The queen tried the dishes made by Lin Zifu and was surprised.

Lin Zifu's cooking skills were originally good, and Doctor Ye remembered it after eating it once.

Aunt Liao and the others often let Lin Zifu cook, even if it is a medicinal meal, it is very delicious, not inferior to the imperial chef, and Lin Zifu is best at improving freshness, and each dish tastes exceptionally delicious, which other imperial chefs can't do.

The queen tried the taste of each dish and was very satisfied, so she hurriedly asked the palace maid to send it to the emperor.

Father-in-law De knew early that the queen would send food, so he did not arrange for the imperial dining room to be prepared.

The emperor looked at the dishes on the table, and said with some suspicion: "These are all made by Dr. Lin?" ”

Gonggong De explained with a smile: "I heard from Niangniang, Dr. Lin was busy all morning to prepare this table of dishes, you look at the bamboo soup is also very good, the chicken soup is added with ginseng and bamboo sun, which is beneficial to health." ”

The emperor drank gruel in the morning, knew that Lin Zifu knew how to cook, and after listening to Father-in-law De's introduction to each dish, he was in a very good mood: "Then try Dr. Lin's cooking skills, I want to see what is different from the imperial dining room, if it is delicious, I will go to the queen's side tonight, if it is not delicious, I will not be too lazy to run." ”

Father-in-law De did not respect or belittle, but just respectfully served the emperor vegetables: "The emperor will know if the food tastes good or not, but the palace maid who sent it said that the queen ate half a bowl of rice because of this." ”

Everyone in the palace knows that the queen is a very self-disciplined person, and how much she eats every day is fixed, but it is not easy for the queen to eat half a bowl of rice.

The emperor was suddenly curious: "There is such a thing, but it is unusual." ”

As he spoke, he picked up the spoon and took a sip of the soup, if he only felt that the soup was extraordinarily fresh, there was a faint ginseng fragrance in the chicken soup, and the taste of the bamboo sunflower was very light, but the bamboo sunflower had been thoroughly flavored and very smooth and tender.

"This soup is stewed carefully, this celery and lily are fried together, this is unusual, I haven't eaten it before."

The lily is very crisp, with a little bitterness, the taste is not very strong, and it is not uncomfortable to eat in the mouth.

Father-in-law De didn't speak, but waited quietly aside.

The emperor ate every dish and praised it very much: "I didn't expect Dr. Lin's cooking skills to be so good, I thought she would only treat people." ”

It's something unexpected.

Father-in-law De hurriedly said: "I heard that Dr. Lin suffered a lot, his father died early, and was later sold by his uncle, he was originally going to be married to the underworld, and then he picked up a life, and he was able to get to this point, I don't know how much effort she has put in, I heard that she treats people, as long as she meets a poor person, she will not charge money." ”

He understood these words, when Concubine De invited Lin Zifu into the palace before, he had carefully understood and knew some things about Lin Zifu.

I admire a girl like Lin Zifu from the bottom of my heart.

The emperor frowned slightly when he heard this: "So bitter? ”

He has seen Lin Zifu, but he only feels that there is a tenacity all over his body, neither humble nor arrogant, and he is not like a woman who has never seen the world.

Gonggong De sighed, a little distressed: "These minions investigated, all true, the minions were also very surprised when they heard about it, I didn't expect Dr. Lin to have such a bad time, she followed the night doctor for a long time, by the way, the first aid method learned by the imperial doctors was also taught by Dr. Lin, many doctors admired Dr. Lin, saying that Dr. Lin was very courageous." ”

He told everything he knew about Lin Zifu.

The emperor also admires people with skills: "Reward." ”

Father-in-law De was the emperor's confidant, and personally ordered him to go down to prepare reward items for Lin Zifu.

Lin Zifu accompanied the queen to finish the meal, but she didn't expect the emperor's reward to come.

Father-in-law De personally went on a trip, and he was also very happy: "Congratulations to Doctor Ye, the emperor is very satisfied with lunch, these are all gifts from the emperor." ”

Lin Zifu hurriedly knelt down to thank her, she was not very moved by the things rewarded by the emperor.

After thanksgiving, he stood up.

Father-in-law De was in a very good mood: "The emperor is very satisfied with the dishes you made today, and he has eaten one more bowl than usual, and dinner can be prepared." ”

Lin Zifu was overjoyed, looked at the queen, and saw that the queen's face was also happy.

As long as the emperor likes it, she is afraid that the emperor will not be satisfied, and now that the emperor is satisfied with the meal, she is also at ease.

When her father-in-law left, Lin Zifu became excited.

"Niangniang, I will definitely help you keep the emperor tonight."

After saying that, he smiled and went to prepare dinner.

Since you want to keep the emperor, you have to use special means, the dishes can't be repeated, and you have to have a sense of freshness, which is a must.

On the queen's side, I learned that the emperor was a little damp, so I had to prepare a soup to dispel dampness tonight, using lentils, red beans, poria cocos, lotus seeds, barley, codonopsis and pork ribs stew, and simmered slowly.

The emperor is old, and there are so many concubines in the harem, for the emperor's sexual life, she is thinking about getting some more kidney supplements, of course, this can't be said casually, just talk about it to the queen.

She wrote a list and asked the maid to prepare the ingredients she needed.

After explaining this matter, he remembered the important matter of treating the harem concubines, and hurried to ask the queen when it would start.

The queen was afraid of an accident, so she hurriedly asked the palace maid to inform her.

The first to come was Concubine Xian, Concubine Xian and Lin Zifu had a holiday, and when they saw Lin Zifu again at this moment, Concubine Xian had a gentle smile on her face, not aggressive when they met for the first time, but her eyes were gentle.

After all, there have been contradictions, and Lin Zifu is still a little ridiculous.

The queen knew these things well, and finally let the two get together, so naturally she couldn't let the conflict continue.

shouted that the two of them sat down, and said: "You have had a conflict before, and the previous things have passed, so don't take a step back." ”

Concubine Xian looked at Lin Zifu with a smile, and said bluntly: "Doctor Lin, don't worry about me, I thought you were Concubine De's person at that time, so I was hostile, but now I know that you are with us, don't worry about what you said to you before and what you did." ”

Because of the relationship between Concubine De, it is difficult for Lin Zifu.

But what happened recently made her understand that Concubine De had been cheating on Lin Zifu all along, so she ...... At the beginning, she was a little too embarrassed by Lin Zifu.

Lin Zifu didn't hold a grudge against Concubine Xian, especially after knowing Concubine Xian's personality from Doctor Ye, she admired Concubine Xian quite a lot.

"If there was a collision with Niangniang at the beginning, Niangniang should not be like me."

When the queen saw that the two of them had spoken, she was relieved.

In the middle, he reconciled: "Since the words have been spoken, I have forgotten the previous things, Concubine Xian, you don't often say that you are not feeling well, you can show Dr. Lin a look." ”

Concubine Xian really has some symptoms, and she said politely: "I have been asking the imperial doctor to help diagnose it, even if I take medicine, it has no effect, and my lower abdomen will hurt very much every time I have menstruation." ”

Lin Zifu immediately thought of menstrual cramps in her mind, and she frowned slightly and said, "This kind of disease is common to women, do you have any children?" ”

She remembers that in her previous life, she met several patients, who had menstrual cramps, or couldn't take medicine to regulate well, and then gave birth to a child, and the disease was cured.
