Suddenly remembered that the palace rule is to walk briskly, so she walked when there were people.

As soon as he entered the imperial dining room, he saw the proud Hong Imperial Chef, and it seemed that Concubine Li had given him a lot of rewards.

Hong Yuchu turned around and saw that Mu Jiaren's face immediately changed, coughed lightly, and said with a little concern: "Xia Zhu, why did you come back." ”

"Just now, Concubine Chen passed me to Weiyang Palace." Mu Jiaren said truthfully.

Hong Yuchu is natural and clear, even if he doesn't know, the people in the dining room will tell him.

Zi Su asked a little worriedly, "How did Concubine Chen punish you?" ”

Chef Hong was making dim sum, but his attention was on her answer.

"Yes, Concubine Chen is ......," Bai Shao whispered in her ear, "she has a bad temper." ”

"Concubine Chen listened to the tolerant, and after a few words of reproach, she let me come back."

Some of them just don't make people figure it out.

Sure enough, Hong Yuchu turned his head to look at Mu Jiaren in disbelief.

"Let's do something quickly." Mu Jiaren's movements were as skillful as ever, and there was no inconvenience.

Hong Yuchu is very strange, Concubine Chen's temperament is always a direct slap in the face or a cane, and the lightest thing is to kneel, so it is impossible to let her come back like this.

"Chef Hong, is this dim sum okay?" Mu Jiaren brought it over to show him, and Hong Yuchu reacted and nodded.

"Huh? OK. ”

Mu Jiaren handed the dim sum to the palace maid on the side.

After dinner, after everyone returned to the dining room, Zhong Sishan did not leave.

"Xia Zhu, Bai Shao, what's going on today?" Zhong Sishan asked angrily.

It is against the palace rules to omit the food of a certain palace, and if the master blames it, the entire dining room will be punished.

"Back to Zhong Sishan, Xia Zhu made the soup of Jinxia Palace, and the slave and maid also remembered to load it, but I don't know why the utensils appeared in the imperial dining room again, and Concubine Chen said that we didn't send it."

Bai Shao opened his mouth to explain.

Mu Jiaren has nothing to say, she just came, and she didn't know what the utensils of each palace looked like, and she was not familiar with the palace maids and chamberlains in each palace, so she couldn't prove her innocence at all.

"So, someone deliberately framed it?" Zhong Sishan asked rhetorically.

"The slave doesn't know."

Bai Shao shook her head, she couldn't figure out what was going on for a while.

"What did Concubine Chen say?"

Zhong Sishan looked at Mu Jiaren on the side.

"After a few words of reproach, I read that I just entered the palace, and I don't care about today's affairs."

Zhong Sishan frowned and shook his head: "You are really naïve, even if you don't care about today's affairs, you will target our dining room in the future, can you take it?" ”

"The slave maid began to write down the people and utensils of the palace today, and tried to make sure that no mistakes were made."

Eat a trench and grow wise, this time it was her own negligence.

"Zhong Sishan, didn't the perilla soup we made today be approved by the masters of the palaces? Xia Zhu is also considered a ......"

"Did we do it? The emperor's reward is the Hong Imperial Kitchen, not our dining room, and we will be vigilant in doing things in the future! ”

"Yes."

After Zhong Sishan left, Linglong continued to reprimand Mu Jiaren.

"Why do you like to show off yourself so much? I can't do my duty well, and I have to affect our dining room, which master you want to tie up is your business, don't come in the name of the dining room! ”

Both white peony and perilla began to persuade.

"Yesterday Xia Zhu made perilla soup, and Hong Yuchu wanted to give it to Weiyang Palace, today Xia Zhu is afraid that the master of Weiyang Palace will blame ......"

"Blame? It's all Hong Yu's kitchen that does well, and it's our dining room that makes mistakes, don't you understand? Linglong glared at Mu Jiaren.

"I didn't do it well this time, I'm sorry everyone."

Mu Jiaren accepts this result, but it doesn't mean that she will just leave it at that!

"Okay, Concubine Chen doesn't blame her, the emperor praised the good work of the imperial kitchen, which means that Xia Zhu has the ability to make better soups, and we will still be praised in the future."

After Bai Shao finished speaking, Linglong looked at everyone.

"Everyone remembers, our Shanggong Bureau is the same as the branches, one is prosperous, one is lost, for so long, no one has ever been able to show themselves, Xia Zhu This is the first time, I hope there will be no second time in the future, otherwise don't blame our dining room for not accommodating her!"

"Yes, in charge."

Everyone washed up and prepared to rest, Tao Ran lay on the side and comforted: "Sister Xia Zhu, don't be sad, I was always clumsy when I first entered the palace, and there was a place where I broke the little master's rouge box, punished me for kneeling for three hours, and finally borrowed a lot of money to ration the little master." ”

"Taoran, can you do me a favor tomorrow?" Mu Jiaren said.

"Of course!"

"You tell me about the palace people in each palace, what are their names, and which palace are they?"

"Okay."

"What if I want to buy something in the palace?"

"You can go to the Internal Affairs Office to get it, but our status is humble, and there are few things, if you need it very much, you can let your father-in-law or the guards bring it, they can sometimes go out of the palace, and if you need it urgently, let the guards bring it, and the money will be more, and if it is slow, you can let the father-in-law bring it, and the money will be less."

"Do you have a guard you know? I want to bring something. ”

"Yes, but it's more subtle."

"Hmm."

Early the next morning, when Mu Jiaren was preparing breakfast, Tao Ran ran to call her.

"Sister Xia Zhu."

Mu Jiaren came out and went to a corner with her.

"Today is the day of shopping, Xiaoluzi wants to go out with Gonggong Yang to buy, just enough to help you bring it, and it is cheap."

"Is Xiao Luzi someone you are familiar with?" Mu Jiaren was a little more alert, and now she must think twice about doing things.

Tao Ran nodded: "We entered the palace together, I can come to the dining room or he helps, Xiaoluzi is very good, and he is not greedy." ”

Mu Jiaren was a little relieved and followed her to see Xiaoluzi.

He is two years older than Tao Ran, the same age as Luo Qianqian, he is not as tall as Luo Qianqian, his appearance is delicate, his body is very thin, he may have been a slave for a long time, and he is a little hunchbacked.

"Xiao Luzi, this is Sister Xia Zhu, you can help her bring something."

"I need a few blank booklets, pen, ink, paper, and inkstones."

"Sister, what do you want all this for? If you don't use much, you can go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to get some. Tao Ran said.

"If you need a lot, let's buy some first." She wants to remember all the palace people, although she has a good memory, but it is more convenient to have a portrait.

"Okay, Xiaoluzi, have you remembered?"

Xia Luzi nodded: "I haven't brought much of these, I don't know the price, or give me a hundred Wen first." ”

"The next road only charges ten cents each time." Tao Ran was afraid that she would think it would be expensive, so she explained.

"What do palace maids in the palace generally like to buy outside?" Mu Jiaren asked.

"There are more rouge gouaches, and there will be jewelry, but jewelry is expensive and generally can't afford it." Tao Ran said.
