Ying Yue didn't dare to stay by Fuhai for too long, so she quit the Twelfth Elder Brother and returned to Huifang Academy. However, the purse mint candy was begged by the twelfth elder brother, saying that it was comfortable to eat in his throat.

When I returned to Yanchun Garden, the summer garden of Zhongyong Gong, it was already twilight.

The eldest girl, Xuezhi, knelt on the side, rubbing her swollen calves for Nala's, and Mama Tao presented a white fungus lotus seed soup.

After using it, he asked Yingyue: "Qinghan told me, you chatted with the eleventh elder brother in the pavilion outside Huifang Academy for a while, and then went to the Fuhai beach with the twelfth elder brother?" ”

Ying Yue's belly, this informant dead girl!

She had to nod and said, "It was the twelfth elder brother who invited him, and said that Fuhai was only a few steps away, and her daughter had no excuse to refuse, so she went for a while." "It's really just a little while!

Nara frowned: "Don't get too close to the Twelfth Elder Brother in the future." ”

Ying Yue was stunned, she chatted with the eleventh elder brother for a while today, why didn't Eniang say that she was not allowed to get close to the eleventh elder brother? ?

Nara sighed and sent a few girls, leaving only Mama Tao, a confidant, before saying, "The eldest princess has always suspected that Empress Yuan's death is related to her successor. ”

Ying Yue was shocked, Empress Xiaoxian's death is related to the successor?!

"This ...... How can it be? Ying Yue looked surprised.

Nala frowned and shook his head slightly: "Actually, I don't think it's possible, after all, when Empress Yuan's mother died, the highest family in the palace was Concubine Shu's mother, and although she was also on the three banners in the future, the Huifa Nala clan was not a family with the eight great surnames of Manchuria, and the followers were only more senior." What's more, Concubine Xian was not very favored back then, and she had no heirs under her knees, and after Empress Yuan went, the emperor might not choose her to enter the middle palace. ”

Ying Yue was stunned, what is Raush Zihui Nala clan? Isn't Qianlong the Wulanala clan after him?

Forehead...... It looks like she was cheated by the TV series! What is said that Qianlong was succeeded by the niece of the Yongzheng Empress Wulanala clan...... It turned out to be nonsense!

"That, Huifa Nara, isn't it also Nala?" Ying Yue said weakly. Speaking of the Nala clan (also known as the Nala clan and the Nalan clan), if there is no prefix, it is the abbreviation of the Yeh Nala clan, in addition, she also knows that there is a Ula Nala clan, which is also one of the eight major families with Manchurian surnames.

The Nala clan had to patiently explain to her, "Our Nala clan, in the pre-Ming Dynasty, had four clans, Yehnara, Hadanara, Ulanala, and Huifa Nala, among which only Ulanala and Hadanala are the same clan and the same branch, while our Yehnara and the successor Huifa Nara are their own clans, not homologous. ”

Ying Yue's mind turned around, and at least she understood a little, and then this Nala had no kinship with her mother's Nala at all!

And Eniang's Nala is the eight surnames, and Shufei Nala's is naturally too, so the Lunmen is higher than the successor Huifa Nala's.

If it weren't for Concubine Shu's qualifications, who would the throne of the Middle Palace belong to, I'm afraid it would be hard to say!

Therefore, even if the Huifa Nala clan killed Empress Xiaoxian, she may not be the beneficiary, in this case, how dare the Huifa Nala clan take such a big risk to murder the Empress Yuan?

"And—" Nara lowered his voice, "Concubine Xian was able to stay in the Middle Palace back then, thanks to the last words of your aunt, Empress Xiaoxian!" ”

Ying Yue's expression was shocked.

Nara continued: "Before Empress Xiaoxian died, she said that Concubine Xian was dignified and worthy of succession! Saying that, the Nala clan showed a little resentment, "Empress Yuan doesn't know why, she actually helped Concubine Xian for no reason!" If she had said a few more good words about Concubine Shu back then, I was afraid that the throne of the Middle Palace would not be able to take her turn as a concubine! ”

Ying Yue was stunned for a long time. If that's the case, I'm afraid that her late aunt and her relationship with her successor seem to be pretty good! Otherwise, he would not have tried to protect Concubine Xian as the successor before he died!

Nara sighed, "That's it, it's been so many years, no matter how much you complain, it's useless." I only hope that Concubine Shu can give birth to another son and a half daughter, and it will be good to have someone to rely on in the second half of her life. ”

"The queen is the queen after all, and when she sees the twelve elder brothers in the future, she must not be rude."

"Yes, my daughter understands." Isn't it just to stay away?

As soon as he decided to stay away, but after three days, the queen sent Li Rong'an, the great eunuch next to her, to visit the Yanchun Garden of Zhongyong.

This eunuch should have called Gonggong Li, but there were a lot of eunuchs surnamed Li in the palace, so everyone in and outside the palace called this Gonggong Li Grandpa Rong.

Ying Yue complained: There is no Rong Mama, but is there Rong Gonggong?

This Rong Gonggong is about fifty years old, his face is white and beardless, with a smile on his face, and he looks very kind, "Niangniang ordered the servants to send some of Jiangning's newly offered morning silk for Duchess Zhongyong and Gege to cut summer clothes." ”

The color of the morning glow silk is bright and dazzling, looking at it like clouds, but it is light and thin like yarn, thin and not transparent, so it is very precious, and Jiangning does not offer dozens of horses every year.

The Nala clan has some doubts in his heart, since the Huifa Nala clan lives in the middle palace, and the Fucha clan of the mother family of the Yuan Empress is not close, in previous years, there was only the big day of the New Year's Festival, or the birthday of the old lady, and then he would follow the emperor to routinely reward. Why is it that this summer has suddenly been rewarded repeatedly?

Nara was busy thanking and said: "The queen is very loved, and the slave really shouldn't be." ”

Gonggong Rong said with a smile: "In addition to giving a reward to the slave here, the master Niangniang also specially explained one thing to the slave. ”

Nala said, "Father-in-law, please speak." "Nala secretly wondered, could it be that the queen has a request for others, so she is so wooed?

Gonggong Rong smiled and said: "Actually, it's not a big deal, it's the twelfth elder brother who ate the mint candy given by Fucha Gege a few days ago, and he thought it was very good, and he turned around and ordered the imperial kitchen in the palace, but the mint candy made tasted inferior." So the master sent a slave to ask for this mint candy recipe. ”

Nara smiled with relief, and hurriedly said to Yingyue: "Why don't you go and write a recipe quickly!" ”

Ying Yue was embarrassed, this recipe was simple, his father in his previous life had chronic pharyngitis, so Ying Yue got this recipe from an old Chinese medicine doctor, and often made mints for his father in his previous life. Daddy died, but the habit has been maintained.

It is nothing more than white sugar and mint, and a few throat-moistening herbs. It's not a rare thing.

But—

The mint used in Yingyue's mints is lemon perfume mint!

And this mint was introduced from the west, and it is also known as lemon balm.

And in this era of the Qing Dynasty, there was no lemon balm mint!

That's a big deal.

Ying Yue thought about it, and had to add a little lemon to the recipe to reconcile, so that the taste of the finished product should be similar.

After writing it, he politely presented Fang Zi to this Rong Gonggong.
