5. Chat

Chat with ordinary people, how can you say a word casually, and the other party will say that they want to give tribute and famous porcelain? How else can this be chatted? What if the emperor thinks she is begging for a reward if she is not careful?

The Emperor looked at the roomβ€”and Shainin followed his gaze and looked at it again.

The furnishings of the house are very simple, she has lived in it for two years, and she has arranged it according to her own wishes, and it can be called warm and generous in general. There wasn't much else to say about the house, except for the bookshelf against the wall on the north side, which Shainin liked the most.

When she stays alone in the house and has nothing to do, she tries to do some handicrafts so that she doesn't have to be idle, because people will be cranky when they are idle. Doing something not only passed the time, but also decorated the house, and the mood seemed to become more relaxed and calm.

There is a small straw basket on the shelf, about the size of two hands together, and there are small rags tied into flowers and vines on the sides and handles of the basket, and the green leaves and red flowers look very pleasant. These rags are all scraps of cloth edges left over from clothes cutting, which are really useless, and they can be regarded as turning waste into treasure here.

"What kind of straw is this?"

"It's the grass that grows near the water on the edge of the hibiscus pond in the west, and when the grass withers in the autumn, when they clean up the remnants of the lotus and the fallen leaves, I begged for these grasses and braided them for fun."

The emperor praised it: "It's a good compilation and it's very ingenious." ”

Inside the basket are a few round white pebbles for decoration, which at first glance I thought were birds' eggs.

Seeing the questioning look in the emperor's eyes, Xie Ning didn't wait for him to ask any more questions, and took the initiative to explain: "The grass basket is too light, so put something to hold it down, otherwise it will be unstable." ”

Next to Little Lanzi is a pair of shoes made of hay mixed with colored threads - of course, these shoes are only decorations, they can't be worn, and they look very delicate and cute.

Further up there was a small windmill made of colored paper and bamboo sticks, which was beautifully made, and the emperor took it down and looked at it, and tried to blow it, and the windmill spun briskly, but soon stopped again.

"You did it too?"

Xie Ning lowered his head and responded: "Yes." ”

"What is this?"

Xie Ning raised his head, and the emperor was pointing to the ...... in the box Painted eggshell.

"It's a goose egg."

It was indeed a goose egg, but the inside of the eggshell had been hollowed out and painted with bright colors. The emperor picked one up and looked at it, and found that there was a small hole at the bottom of the eggshell, which had been glued up, and the eggshell should have been filled with something else to increase the weight, and these things also allowed the eggshell to stand firmly without skewing.

Red, green, yellow, black, and some eggshells are painted in two colors, bright and dazzling, and all the eggs are gathered together in the box, which is particularly intimate and lively

The emperor picked up a red eggshell, shook it in his hand, and turned around to see that there was a poem written on the eggshell.

"When you come, the red sun makes the window screen".

What is this written without a beginning or an end?

Isn't it a little too funny to have a red sun written on this red egg?

The emperor picked up a yellow one again, and on it was a sentence: two pineapples singing green willows.

This pineapple?

The eggshell did have a few pockmarks on it, like a pear blemish, and a pear pedicle was painted on it.

……

Although the emperor never felt that he was born with omniscience, he had never encountered such a unique pineapple in the past thirty years.

The Emperor coughed lightly and calmly put the eggshell back.

The efficiency of the dining room is very high, and not long after Qingmei came back, the little eunuch in the dining room had already brought the food box.

Listening to the movement outside, Xie Ning remembered this big problem for her.

How could the Emperor suddenly come to her? Now that it's time to eat, is the Emperor going to stay and eat together?

She doesn't have the emperor's food here.

"You ordered a meal?"

Shainin said yes.

"Let them come in."

The little eunuch in the dining room was about to be paralyzed!

He just came to bring lunch to Xie Cairen, how could he see Bai Gonggong here who was above 10,000 people under one person in the palace! Father-in-law Bai is here, which means that the emperor must also be there.

The little eunuch entered the house tremblingly, and did not dare to look up at all, first put down the food box and knelt down and kowtowed, then opened the lid of the box, and brought out the contents in the same way.

First take out a bowl of hot hand-rolled noodles, and then set out four side dishes. Huang Gonggong did exactly what Qingmei said, and there was a lot of pepper and vinegar in the noodle soup, and as soon as the lid was lifted, a hot and sour aroma hit people's noses.

The little eunuch finally put the dishes and chopsticks away, and the emperor was already sitting down at the table.

The little eunuch knelt and retreated, and Grandpa Bai stepped forward to serve noodles and scoop soup for the emperor.

As if he had become the master, the emperor said to Shainin, "Sit down." ”

Shainin still had to thank him, and then sit again.

It's a delicious noodle, but it's a pity that it's too awkward to eat it in front of the emperor. Noodles are no better than other things, you have to suck and eat, do you want her to make a sound of eating noodles in front of the emperor? The sound was like the sound of a pig arching its food in a trough. Eating anything else will not be as embarrassing as eating noodles.

If you don't want to make a sound, you can only eat more restrained.

The emperor ate noodles quite loudly, but he didn't make much noise, sure enough, the emperor is not an ordinary person, and he can't do it.

Among the four side dishes, the pickled cucumber strips are very refreshing, and the pork skin jelly is particularly chewy, and it is slippery and bouncy in the mouth. The other two dishes were far away from her, so Xie Ning didn't bother to pick up the dishes, just eat the two in front of her.

In the future, I will have the opportunity to practice eating noodles and strive to eat quietly, quickly and full.

Unlike Xie Ning's restraint, the emperor was very satisfied with what he ate. In such a sullen and rainy weather, after eating this sour and spicy noodle soup, I sweated all over, but I felt much more relaxed.

These side dishes are also very appetizing and refreshing.

The emperor didn't stay long after he was full, and said to Xie Ning: "I'm gone." ”

Xie Ning hurriedly sent off the guests.

Sent to the gate of the courtyard, the emperor turned his head and said, "Go in, it's still raining, don't catch a cold." ”

Xie Ning curtsied his knees and whispered: "Emperor Xie cares, and the concubines send the emperor off." ”

Thankfully, it was finally sent away.

Xie Ning returned to the house, and as soon as he was relieved, he felt sore. Qinghe came over to help her lean on the bamboo couch in front of the window, and took out the beauty fist to beat her legs.

"Help me loosen my hair, I want to sleep for a while."

Qinghe whispered: "Cairen, don't sleep, you can't sleep at night when you are sleepy." Why don't you light a stove of incense for you, and you can read a book for a while? ”

Xie Ning turned his head to look at her, and Qinghe's voice became quieter: "In case Aunt Shanggong comes later, if you are asleep, it will not be good." ”

"Won't it?"

When the emperor left, he didn't show much affection for her, will Luo Shang Palace still come?

Her eyes fell on the bookshelf, and the box of easter eggs should be put away. At that time, she was idle and bored, and copied a few lines of poetry on it after coloring, she didn't have any guests here, and she didn't expect the emperor to see it.

Why don't you put it away first?

But the emperor has already seen it, and she will take it now, which seems to be a bit too deliberate.

Qinghe thought more than Xie Ning thought.

The emperor must like his own talents. Otherwise, in such a secluded place as the Lingering Fragrance Pavilion, the emperor would not have come here. Moreover, the emperor and the talented people talked in the house for a long time, and the food cooked in the dining room in the back garden was definitely not as exquisite as the emperor's imperial meal, and the emperor ate it very fragrantly.

With the addition of these two, the emperor must be worried about talents. Otherwise, how many big and small things does the emperor have in a day, how can he stay in the Lingering Fragrance Pavilion for so long?

But Xie Ning is quite sleepy, people don't have much energy on rainy days, and there is nowhere to go, so it's better to sleep.

Qinghe didn't want her to sleep, so she had to desperately find gossip to talk to her.

"Talented, Qi Shanggong has sent tea newly, has the emperor tasted it? Isn't that weird? ”

Xie Ning yawned: "The emperor didn't care about tea, but asked two teapots." ”

Qinghe asked cautiously: "The teapot is a little old, not very decent." We didn't know in advance when the emperor came up, otherwise I would have found out the new set. ”

Speaking of teapots, Xie Ning felt quite disturbed.

The emperor just said that he wanted to give her a new tea set, who knows if it was a casual or real gift?

It was a good meal at noon, and the emperor didn't eat it well when he came.

Shainin calculated, what to eat at night? I didn't want to eat the noodles, and I was so disturbed by the emperor that I didn't want to see the noodles for at least ten days.

While she was hesitating, someone came to solve her problem.

The Roshan Palace is here.

Qinghe and Qingmei smiled when they saw Luo Shanggong, Luo Shanggong was deep, and the smile was much more sincere and cordial than these two yellow-haired girls.

To say that when she first came to Yingxiang Pavilion, she was still unsure of Xie Cairen's future, but now she really wants to please Xie Cairen.

There are many women in the palace, and the emperor has slept with many people. But many of them were only once, and they were never remembered by the emperor again. Although the current emperor has not been on the throne for a long time, there are only a few women who have slept with him, but the first emperor's combat effectiveness in this regard is very good, and the highest record should be when the first emperor Yuanchun was ten years old, right? In one year, the first emperor slept with more than 210 palace maids, and did not bring the same ...... The reason why the data is so clear is because the Palais Rochamp is a professional in this area. Although she was still young when the first emperor slept in the harem, Luo Shanggong looked through the booklet of that year in the archive of Shang's dormitory, and the person who wrote the booklet would not lie.

Therefore, sleeping with the emperor once does not explain any problems at all, and these more than 210 palace maids did not even make a splash, and they were silently washed away by time.

But if there is a second time, it will be different. The first time can be said to be accidental, but the second time the emperor can still remember this person, which is not ordinary.

What's more, Luo Shang Palace also heard that the emperor specially came to the Yingxiang Pavilion to see Xie Cairen today, and he had lunch here before leaving.

Do you need to ask what to do next? Luo Shanggong must be good Xie Cairen will climb the ladder of heaven in the future, even if he doesn't make friends, he must not offend her.
