Chapter 80: The Queen is Gluttonous
Seeing that the little emperor was amusing Zhao Zhao, Concubine Chen consciously dragged Concubine Yun a little farther away.
For the matter of entering the palace as a concubine, she has no right to resist.
In the same way, she didn't care about all the things after entering the palace.
She didn't think about what she couldn't love, what she wanted to win over the concubine, and what kind of power she cultivated herself.
When I returned home today to see my grandmother, my grandmother burst into tears with excitement, but she was very calm.
"Grandmother, don't worry, I'm living a very happy life in the palace." Concubine Chen remembers saying this to herself.
Moreover, she is really doing well.
When she said this, the figure of Xiao Zhaozhao appeared in her mind.
Not only Xiao Zhaozhao, but even the Queen Mother is a good person...... It can be seen from the affairs of the Yun family.
People in the capital knew that the Yun family was rebelling, but in the confession really posted by the imperial court, it only said that Yun Zhang was corrupt and used his power to sell his official position, which seemed insignificant compared to rebellion.
The two of them were still talking, and Concubine Chen glanced at Dongzhu on the side.
"Let's go back first, you can talk to Zhao Zhao later." Concubine Chen whispered.
Dongzhu nodded and gently blessed.
Chu Zhaozhao glanced at it, and saw Concubine Chen and Concubine Yun who turned to leave, and she subconsciously wanted to make a sound.
"I've been outside the palace for a day, and you, the queen, still don't let the family go back to rest and rest?" Chen Luo couldn't help but say.
"......" Chu Zhaozhao choked.
She looked at the young man in front of her, her little face wrinkled, "I'm going to go to the queen mother for dinner, if I go late, there will be no food for the queen mother." ”
The food in the palace is all pinched, and if she goes at this time, she can still have dinner.
It's late, I'm afraid it's gone.
The corners of Chen Luo's mouth were shallowly hooked, and the tips of his eyebrows were habitually raised.
This little girl is here to eat......
It's a coincidence.
Today's meal in Ci'an Palace was advanced, and now he has eaten it back.
"There is also food in my Taihe Palace." Chen Luo didn't say this, and deliberately turned a corner, "I promise, it's even better than the food in the mother's harem." ”
Chu Zhaozhao looked at him and couldn't help but wrinkle his little face even more.
What's the same thing?
It's true that she's here to eat, but it's not just for eating!
Obviously, she still wants to share the hot pot and barbecue with her mother when she eats!
"I'm not going to ......"
"Five flavors."
Before Chu Zhaozhao's words were finished, his little hand was grabbed, and he was interrupted by the way.
Chen Luo looked at Wuwei who was lowering his head and kicking the stones, "You go and tell the queen mother that the queen is greedy, and I will take the queen back to Taihe Palace to eat something." ”
“!!!!”
Chu Zhaozhao's eyes widened in surprise, she was greedy?
Wuwei pouted silently.
The emperor is really rare for this little queen!
I'm afraid that the emperor suddenly wanted to come to Ci'an Palace to accompany the queen mother to dinner this afternoon, but it was also for the queen's mother, but unfortunately, after the emperor arrived, he learned that the queen mother was out of the palace.
"Five flavors!" Chen Luo raised his voice, "Do you want to be beaten by the board?" ”
This dog is tasteless, and he mutters something to him in his heart, thinking he can't see it?!
"I'm not ...... Hmm. Chu Zhaozhao's mouth was suddenly covered, and he could only make a muffled movement.
Seeing that Wuwei ran away without looking back, Chen Luo took her little hand instead, and his attitude was extremely serious, "There is really delicious food in my palace, I didn't lie to you at all." ”
“……”
A quarter of an hour later.
The Imperial Dining Room was busy again.
The newly appointed manager Li Wei was busy directing everyone, constantly walking around the palace people, and instructing from time to time.
"This is the first time that the emperor and the queen have eaten together, you must be in good spirits, and you must not make the slightest mistake!" Li Wei didn't know how many times he had said the same thing.
The palace people reluctantly replied, and their subordinates were busy.
As early as the afternoon, a father-in-law said that the emperor was going to Ci'an Palace to accompany the queen mother for dinner, so he did not prepare the emperor's dinner alone.
The Queen Mother's diet has always been frugal, and on weekdays, there are eight dishes and one soup plus a few snacks, even if the emperor goes to eat, it is just a few more dishes.
But just now, the father-in-law in front of the emperor came over and said that the imperial dining room would bring the best dishes to the Taihe Palace.
also said that it was ordered by the emperor himself......
At this moment, everyone cheered up violently, especially Li Wei, as if he had just been poured a pot of chicken blood.
The clever eunuch with good things came to Li Wei's side.
"Manager Li, where did our queen mother eat so much?" The little eunuch smiled and said, "Didn't the emperor eat......"
There are one hundred and eight dishes in the imperial dining room that have been selected as the best dishes.
There are many dishes that need to be prepared a few days in advance to be delicious enough, and the time is too tight, and even if they are made, they will not taste as they should be.
Can......
Li Wei slapped him on the head, and he couldn't hide his smile at all, "Little rabbit cub, let you do it, where is so much nonsense?" ”
The main thing is that he is a new official, why can't he show his face in front of the emperor?
If it is liked by the queen this time, the position of the head of the imperial dining room will be stabilized!
There's another reason.
He's not the official manager yet, and there are two people behind him waiting to take his shift.
Thinking like this, Li Wei's voice was much higher.
"Do it well, we have to check every dish carefully, if it is not done well, we will pack up tomorrow and go somewhere else to do things."
As soon as the words fell, the cooks couldn't help but glance at each other, revealing a little dissatisfaction.
Except for the dishes that were originally prepared today, there is not so much time for other dishes.
Some steamed and pickled dishes need to be prepared three days in advance.
"Manager Li, it's really too late to make this eight-treasure gourd duck now......," a cook mustered up the courage to say out, "Not to mention the complicated condiments inside, just cooking the duck takes two hours." ”
In front of the cook lay a fat duck that had just been slaughtered, and the blood on it had not been completely cleaned up.
Even if he is very proficient in this dish, it is impossible to finish it in just half an hour!
"Can't do it?" Li Wei's originally smiling face sank, "The queen wants to eat, do you say you can't finish it?" ”
As soon as these words came out, several people's movements paused.
They looked at each other a few times, and the queen wanted to eat...... When the father-in-law who came over from the palace spoke, he didn't say that.
The cook's legs were so weak that he almost knelt down.
The cook quickly picked up the knife in his hand again, and calmly attacked the fat duck on the board.
Li Wei saw that he was still quite interesting, so he snorted lightly, and then looked at the others with his hands behind his back.
Today, he must let the queen mother praise the imperial dining room!
The queen is small, but that's the queen!
Thinking of this, the smile on the corner of Li Wei's mouth deepened.
