Chapter 8: Worthy of Me (8)
Agreed?!
The ministers felt as if they were dreaming.
It's not the first time they've come to beg, they've been rejected every time, and they've angered Tianwei, and they've lost a few heads once they come, but they can't help but come.
Once the construction starts, it will have to be levied excessively, and the people will lose money.
Chen Guo can't stand such a toss!
This time, I didn't plan to go back intact, and they all held the heart of death, but I didn't expect that the empress would agree so lightly.
Ji Zhuo looked at the group of people who were still stunned, slightly displeased, and his tone was slightly cold, "Don't you retreat, do you want to stay for dinner?" ”
I always feel that everyone wants to eat my meal.
"Wait for the resignation!"
The ministers hurriedly shook their heads and pulled their sons away.
Today, I took the shit luck, and I actually asked for one and two free, not to mention that the goal was achieved, and the son who almost forgot it was all given back.
Flattered!
Ji Zhuo looked at the remaining person in the hall, dressed in a moonlight flowing cloud wide sleeved robe, wide clothes and belts, and fluttering clothes, but in Ji Zhuo's heart, he was a little pitiful.
"Why is there one left?"
Isn't this son wanted?
Shen Hua: "......"
Tianxiu was tired, and had to admit that this product had forgotten people in just a few days, "Do you always take a closer look?" ”
Ji Zhuo took a closer look, oh, it turned out to be the ...... The unlucky one I had to adopt ate ate dry food.
It's a lot more pleasing to the eye.
Without thinking about it, Ji Zhuo asked Shen Hua, "What's your name?" ”
Tianxiu: "......"
Amnesia caused by being too lazy to use your brain?
Shen Hua suddenly felt a burst of wisdom, never expecting that he and His Majesty would meet again in such a scene.
What is the Israeli servant, you can put it all aside, is he too featureless, His Majesty doesn't remember him at all.
"Back to Your Majesty, the concubine is the young envoy Shen Hua, and the eldest son of Shangshu Lingshu."
When Ji Zhuo heard this, he felt strange in his heart, "Don't call yourself a 'concubine', I will be embarrassed when I hear it." ”
Embarrassment is still a word learned from Tianxiu's mouth, and I think it is very used in this scene.
Shen Hua paused and said tentatively: "Slave? ”
"......" makes no difference.
Ji Zhuo rubbed goosebumps and tried to throw people out.
"Minister?"
"Hmm."
Shen Hua breathed a sigh of relief.
It's the best day of the day again – dinner.
"Pass the meal."
Ji Zhuo glanced at Shen Hua and said, "You stay." ”
I reluctantly allowed him to stay and eat.
The beauty is dressed plainly and elegantly, looks very eye-catching, beautiful and delicious, and may be able to increase appetite and help to eat.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Shen Hua was flattered.

After the ministers led by Yu Taifu led their sons to leave the palace satisfied, they did not return to their respective homes.
Instead, they all came to Mrs. Yu's study, and retreated left and right, obviously discussing secret matters.
"Your Majesty's move today is very abnormal, I don't know what your opinion is?" Mrs. Yu was the first to ask.
"The lower officials think that there may be other schemes in the present." The secretary of the ministry still stroked the beard.
He felt that now the empress was deep in her mind and treacherous, and her sudden change of personality must be planning other things, and listening to their advice today, it is estimated that it is just to paralyze them.
"Xu is our repeated admonitions, Your Majesty was sincerely moved by us, and really repented?" A petty officer whispered
There was silence in the study for a while, and everyone's complicated eyes looked at him as if to say-
Sows going up trees are much more credible than that.
"No matter what calculations are being made today, the matter of the palace and the matter of our sons have been resolved, so can the plans made before entering the palace today continue?"
Someone said so, and everyone was also thinking about this problem, and they all looked at Mrs. Yu, hoping that he would have an idea.
When they entered the palace this time, they originally didn't have much hope, but the situation in Chenguo couldn't allow the empress to mess around.
If the empress insists on going her own way, ignoring the Jiangshan Sheji and the people of Liyin, they must do certain things.
Even if you bear the infamy of being a rebel and a thief, you will be stinking for 10,000 years.
Mrs. Yu was silent for a moment, and after thinking for a moment, he said: "Your Majesty has taken back your order to build the palace, so let's wait and see." ”
The ministers nodded, and as a last resort, they didn't want to take the road of rebellion against their nine clans.
Now that they had made up their minds, they dispersed.
Mrs. Yu went to see Yu Shaoyou and asked about the situation in the palace.
It is rumored that the empress is lustful, absurd/lascivious, and likes to torture people between beds, and several sons do die in the palace from time to time.
He also thought that the son he watched the most would not come back, but he did not expect to come back intact in this situation.
It was really unexpected and delighted.
However, what is wrong with his majesty?
—
Ji Zhuo didn't know that she was almost slandered by her courtiers, and Xiao Xiao's various delicacies attracted all her attention.
"Your Majesty, are the ministers serving you for dinner?"
Shen Hua said tentatively, you can't serve the king with sex, so let him be a close servant of the Son of Heaven.
On weekdays, I pour tea and water or something, and when the service is smooth, I may be able to say a word or two, so as not to be forgotten in the harem and become moldy.
Xiao Xiao glanced at him, someone robbed her of her work?!
Seeing that he was courteous, she glanced at him meaninglessly, this person approached her for a purpose, and she saw it from the beginning.
"Exactly." She said, her tone was flat, and people couldn't hear the emotion.
Shen Hua stepped forward to prepare vegetables for her, and her movements were rusty, but fortunately, she was careful and cautious, and she had been observing her expression carefully, noting down her habits and preferences, so that nothing went wrong.
After Xiao Xiao introduced today's fresh dishes, he suddenly had nothing to do, looking at Shen Hua, who was courteous in front of His Majesty, as if he had been robbed of his favor.
The recent empress is easy to serve, much easier to serve than the cheap husband of the prince of Zhenbei, there is no need to be low and small, as long as the meal is delicious, there is also a reward from time to time.
The most important thing is that she is favored, and now she is the head of the imperial dining room, and the largest kitchen in the world is hers, which is simply a good thing that she could never have dreamed of in her previous life.
Xiao Xiao looked at the "bewitching slut" next to His Majesty who was better looking than himself, and had a sense of crisis in his heart.
"Your Majesty......"
Ji Zhuo noticed that she was standing dry, so he said, "You can retreat and eat by yourself." ”
Don't starve my kitchen.
“…… Be. "No, slaves are not hungry.
She was worried that she would be hungry when she was serving the empress, and she would not be able to help but compete with the "dragon" for food, and she would eat and drink first to eat enough, how could she be hungry?!
Although she was very reluctant, the empress spoke, and she had no choice but to retreat, constantly comforting herself in her heart.
Her Majesty's favorite meals are all made by her, and he won't, just a dish, and he will definitely not steal His Majesty's favor.
No, absolutely not!
Shen Hua is relatively quiet and polite, not like Xiao Xiao chirping like a sparrow, so this dinner, the principle of "food is silent" is implemented throughout.
Fortunately, she only had food in her heart and nothing else.
After finishing the meal, Xi burned her hands, and Shen Hua took a clean embroidered handkerchief to dry the water stains on her hands, and every movement was gentle and serious.
Ji Zhuo's expression was flat, and he suddenly said something.
"Dismiss the harem on the day of the clouds, you can do it yourself."
Shen Hua's movements paused.
