The news that the royal chariot had arrived at the door had been reported, and Mrs. Fang stood in front of the door with Xia Hong's hand to greet her. (viii) (1) Chinese Network .ㄟ81.

The emperor hurriedly took two steps forward, but when he stood in front of Mrs. Fang, he was speechless for a while. Fortunately, Xie Ning took a step forward with a smile: "Your body is not good, don't stand outside and talk in such a cold day." ”

Mrs. Fang's guests here have left, but the traces of hospitality have not been completely cleaned up, and the two chairs placed on the side of the kang have not been put back to their original places, so there is no need to clean them up at this time, the emperor naturally sat down on the chair on the left, and Xie Ning naturally sat next to him.

Mrs. Fang instructed Xia Hong to make tea, and asked, "The winter banquet is over?" It's only been half an hour, right? ”

"It's all right, everyone is uncomfortable there, so let's go first."

Mrs. Fang couldn't help but laugh.

The emperor said that others were uncomfortable, but in fact, he himself was the most uncomfortable. Which of the harem concubines is not looking forward to the emperor? But usually the emperor rarely enters the harem, and their hands can't reach out to Changning Palace, which is finally a chance to see the emperor, I'm afraid that they are all dressed up and begging for the emperor's favor, but the emperor showed up and didn't stay long and left, I don't know what those people feel like at this time.

Mrs. Fang asked again if the banquet was good, and the emperor habitually wanted to answer a good word, Xie Ning smiled first and said: "The things on the banquet are not just like that, the same name is auspicious and good-sounding, and everything is taken out to have a story, but there is no delicious food." I drank two sips of soup, and the emperor drank a glass of wine, which was still the sacrificial wine for winter before the feast, and now my stomach is empty. ”

Mrs. Fang hurriedly said, "How can that work?" It's already cold, and if you have an empty stomach, where can you get warm? "At the same time, he hurriedly ordered someone to bring a few suppers, but he didn't have to be too elaborate, as long as he was quick, soft and palatable.

Xie Ning glanced at the emperor with a smile, and could feel that he was obviously relieved, and even his sitting posture relaxed.

Another person may not be aware of it, but Xie Ning accompanies the emperor every day, and sometimes his understanding of him is as clear as his own.

She is a bystander, and she understands the emperor and the other party's wife better.

The emperor has been thinking about his biological mother for so many years, this is only afraid that it started when he learned his true life experience, and he has never given up looking for it for many years, and now he finally recognizes Mrs. Fang, and his heart must be a mixture of joy and sorrow, but he is also uneasy.

Mrs. Fang is no better than him. She has lived alone in the deep palace for many years, and if it weren't for the thought of having a child, I'm afraid she wouldn't be able to hold on for a long time.

Both mother and son want to close the distance, want to make up for the shortcomings of the past, and fill in all those regretful shortcomings. But after all, there have been decades in between, and neither of them is enthusiastic and outgoing, and the more anxious they are, the more they don't know what to do.

Just like just now, Mrs. Fang asked them if they were eating well, if Xie Ning didn't interject a sentence and let the emperor himself, he must have answered a good word in passing. But in this way, the words at the bottom can't be connected, and it's going to be cold.

At this time, Shainin's presence becomes more important. If it weren't for her, the emperor and Mrs. Fang would not be able to find any topic except for a few dry polite words.

The things in the dining room are ready-made, and I am afraid that I will not be able to supply them when the master tells them. Not long after Mrs. Fang gave her orders, the dining room came with supper. The hot assorted noodles were topped with sliced beef and vegetables, a few small snacks that had just come out of the basket, a sweet and salty porridge, and a pot of almond tea.

Looking at the almond tea, Xie Ningxin said that the people in the dining room were indeed better informed than others, and Princess Yuyao ordered it once, and they inquired about the news clearly, and they rushed to send it at this time, and the flattery was unobstructed.

The dining table was set up, and there were three pairs of dishes and chopsticks. Xie Ning let people serve noodles, especially a few more blanched greens. The emperor didn't feel hungry, but how fragrant the mixed noodles were, especially the marinated assorted soy sauce, which made people move their fingers when they smelled it, and his bowl of noodles was doubled in addition to the beef, and two more spoonfuls of mixed sauce were poured on it. The sauce is a vegetarian sauce, which is fried with mushrooms and mushrooms, lotus root and tofu, and the taste is not inferior to meat oil meat sauce at all.

Mrs. Fang had already eaten, so she filled half a bowl of porridge and accompanied them to eat.

The emperor picked up the bowl and took a sip of soup first, and then ate the noodles in a big gulp. Xie Ning is much more delicate than natural when she eats the same emperor, but she also has a good appetite, and most of the bowl of noodles is quickly finished. Mrs. Fang looked at this, and then at that, and the corners of her lips quietly raised at some point.

She usually doesn't eat much, but now she watched the two people in front of her eat deliciously, and unconsciously followed half a bowl of porridge. The emperor ate two bowls of noodles before he felt that his stomach was full, and put the bowl down.

The table was taken down and tea was served again.

Xie Ning asked: "I heard that the soup was delivered in the evening, is it okay for Madame to drink it?" If you think it's okay, Ming'er will send it again. ”

Fang Shanggong said with a smile: "No matter how delicious things are, they don't feel fragrant even if you eat them, so you can think that it will be more delicious when you eat them next time." ”

"That's right." Xie Ning talked to Mrs. Fang about how to take care of the small garden of Fuhui Hall, except for holly, dwarf pines and jade cypresses, which were planted in large vats and moved directly, and they still looked green in winter. There is also an old plum tree in the northwest corner of the garden, not to mention that it has been planted there for thirty or fifty years, Mrs. Fang said that when she saw it during the day, the trees were already full of flower bones, or the plum would definitely bloom in two days, and Xie Ning would be invited to enjoy the plum blossoms at that time.

Xie Ning responded with a smile and asked the emperor: "When the time comes, the emperor will also come to enjoy the flowers together, right?" ”

The emperor said hello.

Mrs. Fang's heart was also relieved.

She said to invite Xie Ning, but she actually wanted the emperor to come up. It's just that it's not good to say it directly, but fortunately, Shainin is turning around in the middle.

"Speaking of which, the emperor and the concubine are not here today, and I also have one thing I want to discuss with the emperor and the concubine. Seeing that the sky is getting colder day by day, it is always inappropriate for Princess Yujun to be alone in Shoukang Palace, has the concubine seen Cao Shunrong today? Is she well ail? Did you say anything to the mother? ”

"I didn't say anything," Xie Ning was also worried about this in his heart, and he deliberately glanced at Cao Shunrong just now. Cao Shunrong is dressed in new clothes, and the clothes and ornaments are more gorgeous and exquisite than what she used to wear, but a person's spirit is not supported by two new clothes or fat powder. The more Cao Shunrong dresses up like this, the more it shows that her illness has not really healed.
