54. People's preferences always change
This cup of Coke can be regarded as a complete conquest of the Queen Mother.
She not only praised this as the best sweet water she had ever drunk in her life, but also said: "This congratulatory gift is very fond of the mourners, and they hope it is more than just a congratulatory gift." In the future, you will have to be idle, and often do it to the mourning family, how about it? ”
"Huh?" Shen Ci was stunned for a moment, and was embarrassed: "Queen Mother, this material for making Coke is not easy, and the concubine has the heart to make it for you, but it is not always available." ”
[Crazy? A bottle of Coke has 5 points, and you will get 150 points a month to drink a bottle for your elderly every day. I worked for your son in the palace for nothing, and where did I work for you in the system, and I was tired and tired for a month, and at the end of the bamboo basket was empty? is worthy of a mother and son, a family of vampires ......]
Li Mobai heard the complaint in her heart, so she smiled and said: "No matter how rare the material is, as long as it is available in the world, you tell me, and I will let people find it." How much and how much to have. As long as the queen mother can be happy, I don't care how much it costs. ”
Shen Ci glared at Li Mobai worriedly: [This dog emperor! Is he going to kill me? 】
However, as soon as the Queen Mother and Li Mobai sang and harmonized, his mother and son decided the matter.
Shen Ciwei: ̄□ ̄||Then I'll go?
And Li Mobai didn't just hear her words.
Today at the birthday banquet, Li Mobai heard how she complained about the queen's words.
From her complaints and the subtle changes in the queen's expression, Li Mobai guessed a bit of the truth.
This incident was deliberately made by the queen to embarrass Shen Ciwei at the queen mother's birthday banquet.
The queen has always shown her motherly and generous side in front of everyone, but she doesn't want to use such a shady trick to maliciously frame others behind her back.
Such a woman must not be spoiled, but if she is favored and powerful, who knows what horrific things she will do?
After the congratulatory gifts of the concubines were delivered, everyone returned to their places and began to eat.
The concubines who came to each other talked and laughed, and occasionally got up to toast the queen mother and the emperor to add some excitement.
In this harmonious atmosphere, the queen raised her eyes and glanced at Sanfu, who was giving Li Mobai cloth vegetables, and then took matters into her own hands and put a chopstick of apricot juice abalone on Li Mobai's plate.
"Your Majesty, this abalone with apricot juice is your favorite dish in your daily life. The concubine specially instructed the imperial dining room to look at the heat, and used double-headed abalone pickled to taste, you can taste it to see if it suits the taste. ”
Li Mobai's eyes were fixed on the fat and juicy abalone, and he didn't even look at the queen, so he said: "You used the chopsticks you used to clip the vegetables to me, and the top was full of your saliva, can I still eat it?" ”
With a cold face, he picked up the apricot abalone that the queen had given him, and threw it on the ground in full view of everyone.
The concubine, who had just gossiped three or two, was immediately silent when she saw this situation, and there was no one in the hall except for the sound of music, and the atmosphere was extremely embarrassing.
The queen hurriedly got up and bowed to Li Mobai, "The emperor is angry, and the concubines are unintentional." ”
The Queen Mother helped to play the round, "Emperor, the Empress has served you like this in the past, what happened to you today?" ”
"Just because she's been like this before doesn't mean she's right." Li Mobai looked at the queen with a cold face, "You are the queen and a model for the harem." If you don't have rules, your harem has no rules. ”
The queen felt aggrieved in her heart, and her eyes were slightly red, but she still held back her tears and said, "The concubine knows her mistake." ”
The Queen Mother helped the queen up, lowered her face and said to Li Mobai: "Today is the birthday banquet of the mourning family, so don't make a big fuss." ”
Li Mobai did not pay attention to the Queen Mother, but set his eyes on Shen Ciwei.
She was a heartless person, hungry all day, and ate happily at the table full of delicacies.
Seeing that she was devouring her food, it was in stark contrast to the other concubines' pretentiousness and slow chewing, and somehow, he didn't think it was vulgar, but a little cute.
"I looked at Shen and promised to like to eat shrimp." Li Mobai knocked on the table and ordered, "Sanfu, you will bring this plate of hibiscus shrimp in front of me to Shen Xu,"
The concubines looked at Shen Ci worried, who was holding half an elbow in his mouth.
The emperor reprimanded the queen with his front foot, saying that she was serving vegetables for herself to let herself eat his saliva.
The hind foot rewarded Shen Ciwu with the hibiscus shrimp he had eaten.
Relatives are distant and close, grace is deep and shallow, and judgments are made.
Everyone was envious, but only Shen Ci couldn't laugh.
She said that she was grateful to the emperor for the reward, but she was secretly complaining in her heart:
[Your sister's! Who rarely eats your saliva......]
Li Mobai smiled at her dotingly, and ordered: "I don't have to thank you for what I gave you, you can eat it dry and eat it to live up to my heart." ”
Shen Ci was mad with worry, but he could only bite the bullet and eat the plate of hibiscus shrimp.
Unexpectedly, the dish that Li Mobai used was very good, and she didn't care about being angry when it was delicious, and she didn't even try to smack her lips when she ate it with relish.
Concubine Luo saw that she didn't have a good appearance, pursed her lips with some disgust, and complained: "The hungry ghost looks ugly like she eats for life, and there are no rules at all." ”
"Why is today's dish not to the taste of Luo Concubine?" Li Mobai asked.
Seeing that he took the initiative to inquire about herself, Concubine Luo was overjoyed, and hurriedly replied with a smile, "Thank you for the emperor's care, this dish is excellent, and the concubine likes it very much." ”
"If you like it, eat it quickly, you can't stop your broken mouth with so many dishes, and you won't stop all night, and it gives me a headache."
Li Mobai's words caused many concubines to laugh, and Concubine Luo was even more ashamed, burying her head very low, and she didn't even dare to breathe anymore.
After the birthday banquet was over, Shen Ciwei was stopped by Li Mobai on the way back to the palace.
"You did a good job at the Queen Mother's birthday banquet today."
"Thank you for the compliment."
"When the party was dismissed, the Queen Mother and I kept saying one thing, guess what?"
Shen Ci shrugged his shoulders and shook his head, Li Mobai smiled and said, "I said that the coke is delicious, I want you to bring it to her tomorrow when you ask for peace." Tell me what you need, and I'll supply you in full. ”
[You're a ghost!] That bottle of 5 points, I exchanged my life for points! What do you supply me with? With your life? 】
But she didn't dare to openly resist the decree, she just thought that she could cope with it day by day, and she went back to discuss with Xiao Tuotuo how to deal with it.
"The concubine is still enough now, if it is not enough, please ask the emperor to reward it."
"Well, that's good." Li Mobai nodded frequently, pinching his chin with his right hand in thought, "Seeing that the Queen Mother is so happy to drink, I am also a little curious about what that thing tastes like." In this way, you will make one copy anyway, and you will make one copy for me tomorrow, so that I can taste it. ”
"But Your Majesty, don't you like to drink sweet things......
Li Mobai leaned closer to her, stared at her somewhat flustered eyes for a long time, and smiled heartily, "People's preferences will change." ”
His face was only an inch away from Shen Ciwei at the moment, and the tip of his nose was almost touching the tip of her nose.
The night in late summer and early autumn was already a little cold, standing on each other's tuyere, Li Mobai could clearly see Shen Ci's thin lips trembling slightly.
He beckoned to Sanfu, took off his cloak and draped it on Shen Ciwei's body, "It's cold in autumn, remember to add more clothes at night, and be careful about your illness." ”
The words fell, leaving Shen Ciwei alone to look at the inner prison cloak he was wearing......
Messy in the wind......
