"As far as the slave knows, Jiang Meiren's father is a six-grade official, and the subsidies for the annual salary, Lu rice, vocational fields, and manpower are added together, totaling about sixty taels......"

Speaking of this, Huang Dechang fell into deep thought.

This... Isn't it beyond your means?

So the question is, Jiang Meiren was born in a small way, where did she get the money to eat roast duck?

Where did you get the silver to make silver silk soft boots for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?

At the same time, Jiang Shishi saw the prince leave and turned back to the courtyard.

Chun Xing followed behind her, "Little master, in fact, as long as you don't say it, no one will know that the boots are sewn by slaves." ”

"But it's a fact that I'm not good at embroidery, and sooner or later there will be a day when it will be exposed, so it's better to confess it earlier." Jiang Shishi also instructed Chunxing, "I'll write a shoe-making recipe later, and you can hand it over to Xiaolinzi." ”

The boots that the princes of the dynasty liked must have been very popular among the people.

In addition, when the prince receives the envoy, she has to think of a way to spoil the prince.

can't spoil it too obviously, let alone say it explicitly, otherwise it's hard to guarantee that people will arrest her as a demon and a monster.

Not to mention others, she herself thinks that wearing books is very evil.

**

There are only two situations for harem concubines, either the palace fights to death, or the Buddha lies flat.

In the next few days, the concubines of the East Palace sent something to the prince's front yard from time to time, busy competing for favor.

Only Jiang Shishi Buddha is lying flat.

After all, cannon fodder must have cannon fodder.

In the early morning of this day, Jiang Shishi went to Tang Concubine Nachen Province as usual.

At this moment, all the concubines and concubines arrived, and Concubine Tang beckoned the palace maids to serve tea and snacks.

There was a square rosewood coffee table between the concubines, and when Jiang Shishi saw Xue Meiniang on the coffee table, her willow eyebrows raised slightly.

I saw that each Xue Mei Niang was cut into small four pieces, and the snow-white pastry was wrapped in a golden pineapple filling, as well as a snow-white cream.

Xue Liangdi, who was on the side, also saw it and asked curiously: "What kind of pastry is this, I haven't seen it." ”

Concubine Tang said proudly: "This is a fashionable pastry in the capital, just passed into the palace, I tasted good, so I asked the palace maid to bring it out to share with the sisters." ”

"It's hard to think that Sister Tang has something delicious to think about us." Xue Liangdi gently pinched a piece of Xue Meiniang's entrance.

After chewing carefully, he nodded and said: "This snack is glutinous, wrapped in sweet and sour pineapple, and there is a faint milky fragrance, no wonder it can be fashionable in Beijing and the palace." ”

After Gu Meiren tasted it, she also nodded and said that it was delicious, "Sister Tang, what is the name of this pastry, if I am hungry, I will also go to the imperial dining room to order a plate and try it." ”

After hearing this, Concubine Tang said quite arrogantly: "This pastry is called 'Xue Mei Niang', and a little fluttershy will cost dozens of taels of silver, if my sister likes it, she can also make the silver go to the imperial dining room to buy it." ”

After speaking, she glanced at Gu Meiren with some disdain, clearly feeling that Gu Meiren couldn't afford it.

Jiang Shishi: "......"

It seems that Xiao Linzi is right, even if Xue Meiniang's plate is only sold for a few dozen yuan, as long as she enters the palace, someone will increase the price a hundred times!

Listening to Concubine Tang's words, Gu Meiren smiled, turned her head and pinched a piece of Xue Meiniang's entrance.

Since I can't afford it, I will eat a little bit for nothing at Concubine Tang's side.

Anyway, Concubine Tang's father is the governor of Sanpinzhong, and Concubine Tang's mother is a good businessman, and there are many good fields and shops in the family, so naturally there is silver.

It can be said that except for Concubine Ruan, the rest of the people present are not as strong as Concubine Tang.

Oh, she kind of understood, Concubine Tang said it nicely, in order to share the food.

In her opinion, it's just to show off!

Xue Liangdi originally wanted to try a piece, but when she heard that this small pastry was so expensive, she didn't taste it again, but said lightly, "The name of this pastry is so good."

Concubine Ruan tasted two pieces.

On weekdays, in order to maintain a slender figure, the concubines eat as if they were eating cat food.

A sweet snack like this is very appetizing to try two pieces.

Jiang Shishi has always been measured outside, and she only ate two pieces.

In this morning province, Concubine Tang used a plate of Xue Meiniang to show off, and then dismissed everyone.

After they dispersed, Jiang Shishi and Chun Xing walked back.

As soon as she returned to Shiyue Pavilion, Jiang Shishi easily slumped on the recliner.

Seeing this, Chun Xing was so anxious.

"Little lord, don't you know that the envoy from southern Xinjiang will come to our country to pay tribute in a few days, and His Royal Highness the prince will take the envoy out of the palace to play, so the concubines and concubines of the East Palace are busy competing for favor and offering courtesy to His Royal Highness the prince, in order to win the opportunity to accompany the prince out of the palace!"

"No, it's that Concubine Ruan and Xue Liangdi have begun to compete for favor, so ah, they are both concubines of the East Palace, so why don't you express it."

"What? Even Concubine Ruan and Xue Liangdi are competing for favor? Then I should really say something. Jiang Shishi sat up straight, "Otherwise, it will not be in accordance with the rules." ”

Chunxing: "......"

I thought that the little master was starting to fight, but it turned out to be just to look passable on the surface?

"Then what are you going to give to Your Highness?"

Jiang Shishi: "What do they take to the front yard to compete for favor?" ”

Chunxing: "Although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince lacks nothing, the people take food as the sky, that is, His Royal Highness the Prince, and three meals a day are indispensable, so the concubines are washing their hands and making soup for His Royal Highness......"

After all, it is easy to pile up in the treasury with other things, and it is possible for His Highness to taste the meal.

Jiang Shishi: "Then I'll also wash my hands and cook meals for His Highness." ”

"Don't... Don't ......" Chun Xing waved her hands in fright when she thought of the hard-to-swallow food Jiang Meiren made, "Actually... It doesn't have to be like them, we can also send something different. ”
