"yes." Tao Ran was also persuaded on the side.

Mu Jiaren ate two bites, and a palace maid came over angrily.

"Who made today's perilla soup?"

Mu Jiaren got up: "I did it, is there any problem?" ”

The palace maid walked in front of Mu Jiaren and raised her hand to fight, but Mu Jiaren directly grabbed her wrist and threw it back.

"If I do something wrong, my master will punish me."

She did everything seriously, there was no problem, and if there was a problem, it was not her who did it.

"The Queen Mother and the Queen Mother don't like ice drinks, so naturally you didn't send them, but the other palace masters have perilla soup to drink, and Weiyang Palace is the first to taste it, you just don't give us Jinxia Palace, why do you think that you are superior to Concubine Li?"

"I follow what is written in the booklet, all the palaces that have soup today have sent a copy for the masters to taste, and the fathers-in-law of the imperial dining room who sent the soup are the fathers-in-law, what ability do I have as a palace maid to decide?"

The palace maid who came sneered: "It's hard-mouthed, Concubine Chen didn't wronged you, Xiaoyingzi, did you say that you sent soup to Jinxia Palace today?" ”

A eunuch named Xiaoyingzi came over: "I really didn't send perilla soup today, Jinxia Palace is still the usual lotus seed lily." ”

After speaking, the palace maid pointed to the imperial dining room: "The utensils used in each palace are different, you go and count them, and you will know that Jinxia Palace has not sent them!" ”

She is not familiar with the utensils in the palace, she is only responsible for making them, and the plates are made by other palace maids.

Bai Shao went in and nodded to Mu Jiaren after counting, indicating that there was no shortage of things inside.

"Did you use the utensils of Jinxia Palace today?" Mu Jiaren asked.

Shisu thought for a while: "I didn't pretend to be in Jinxia Palace." ”

"I remember pretending." Bai Shao said.

Mu Jiaren was about to check again, but was stopped by the palace maid: "Do you think I am not qualified to teach you, Concubine Chen is qualified, what do you want to say and go to Jinxia Palace with me!" ”

She was taken to Jinxia Palace, and after kneeling on the ground and saluting, Concubine Chen angrily reprimanded: "It's you who deliberately despise this palace!" ”

"The slave maid didn't, the slave maid just entered the palace, and the imperial dining room was preparing a new soup drink, so ......"

"So what? It is a fact that you did not send it to Jinxia Palace! Whatever the reason, it's your fault! ”

"Master, just now the slave wanted to teach her a lesson, and she fought back!" The palace maid immediately stepped forward to complain.

"Really? Come on, give me a slap! ”

The palace maid came over and was about to do it, Mu Jia said loudly: "The slave knows her mistake, even if she beats the slave and maid, it is difficult to eliminate the anger of the mother, and the slave has a way to make the mother not angry." ”

"Okay, you come and listen, now the entire harem knows that my Jinxia Palace has been despised by a palace maid, you can tell me how to dissipate my anger!"

"The slave maid does not know any master when she enters the palace, and she does not have the heart to cling, but the slave maid is at fault, so she will naturally be punished, and the slave maid is willing to make a few dishes for the mother to taste."

"Heh, even if you bring the elixir, this palace is not rare!"

"Niangniang hasn't eaten anything, who wants to eat what you made!" The palace maid stepped forward and prepared to hold down Mu Jiaren.

"The emperor's taste, Niangniang should know, and the slave and maid will, the imperial dining room is not necessarily, the dishes made by the slave and maid will only appear in the Niangniang Palace in the future, and the emperor will come to Jinxia Palace if he wants to eat."

When Concubine Chen heard this, she blinked, there were only a few things made in the small kitchen in her palace, and her mother's family didn't know any good cooks, which made Concubine Li always favored by the emperor, if this new palace maid could cook something delicious, it would be really useful.

Mu Jiaren has understood the taste of the queen mother, the queen, and the emperor yesterday, they are the biggest masters in the palace, so naturally there can be no difference, and the emperor is very particular about eating, paying special attention to the meaning and taste.

She hadn't seen Concubine Chen, but fortunately, when she helped Hong Yuchu carry the pot yesterday, Tao Ran said that Concubine Chen was impatient, listening to the wind and rain, just a little bit, and Concubine Li spoke with a needle hidden in her mouth, and she was very gentle in front of the emperor, and the two of them looked at each other unpleasantly for a long time.

Mu Jiaren thought that Concubine Chen's purpose was not to embarrass her, but just to vent her anger.

"Your cooking skills are really so good, can you still be just a palace maid?" The father-in-law on the side said disdainfully.

Mu Jiaren spoke: "If today's perilla soup drink is not liked by the masters of the palace, Niangniang will not be angry because of it." ”

Only if it is delicious, and the emperor's taste, will Concubine Chen care, because Hong Yuchu sent it to Weiyang Palace as soon as possible, and the emperor sometimes goes to Weiyang Palace to sit down, and he must have tasted it today.

"Although the perilla soup is made by you, this soup is what Chef Hong is good at, you are just a handicap, the new palace maid, are you so good at stealing credit?"

Mu Jiaren was stunned, what is Hong Yuchu good at? It turned out that it was Hong Yuchu who used perilla soup to please his master, and then borrowed Concubine Chen's hand to deal with her, Hong Yuchu really had a lot of thoughts, or Concubine Li behind him really had a clever mouth.

"If the slave maid is not satisfied with the dishes made by the slave maid, it is not too late to punish the slave maid, if the new dishes made by the slave maid can be recognized by the maid and favored by the emperor, can it be regarded as a slave maid to make up for the merits?"

Concubine Chen thought about it, and everyone had already brought it over, so she was naturally not afraid that she would run away.

Mu Jiaren went to the small kitchen and began to count the ingredients here.

The emperor likes seafood and meat, and he will appreciate a lot of things with meanings.

Mu Jiaren made a glow of light, that is, with fresh shrimp rolled in the middle of the white shell pillar to make a circle, like a colorful cloud, and then use butterfly pea flowers to make a blue soup at the bottom.

The whole dish has a poetic feel to it.

The other dish is called Ruyi Heian, which is carved into the shape of a cucumber and filled with apple puree, and the balls made with various soups are used as gemstones.

When the two dishes came out, Concubine Chen was very surprised, she had been in the palace for six years and had never seen these dishes.

She immediately stretched out her hand, and the palace maid reacted to give her a dish to taste.

After eating, Concubine Chen nodded: "The taste is really good, you can stay in the Splendid Palace in the future." ”

Mu Jiaren knelt on the ground and saluted: "The slave maid has a humble status, and she doesn't understand the rules, I'm afraid that it will make the mother angry, these two dishes The slave and the maid will teach the master of the small kitchen, if the emperor likes it, he is satisfied with the mother, and the slave and maid can be regarded as making up for it." ”

After she finished speaking, Concubine Chen could be regarded as reacting, yes, if the emperor said that she liked it, wouldn't she still be rewarded? No, the reward can only be given to those around her.

"Okay, this palace will spare you this time, and you will be vigilant when you send things to Jinxia Palace in the future!"

The palace maid also reprimanded on the side: "My master is kind, next time you make the master angry, we will definitely not let you go!" ”

"Thank you, mother." It was almost dinner time when Mu Jiaren left Jinxia Palace, so she hurried to the imperial dining room.
