Chapter 42: The Emperor's Strange Concubine's Requirements
Nie Zhaoyi's face darkened, and after Shi Yu finished speaking, he didn't give him a chance to fight back, and directly raised his eyebrows and walked into the middle of the dormitory.
Compared with the dormitory specially prepared for the emperor, this place is a little smaller, and the facilities are not so complete, but Shi Yu naturally doesn't mind.
It didn't take long for dinner time to arrive, and looking at the table of vegetarian dishes delivered to him, Shi Yu took a deep breath.
"Vegetarian from today?"
"Your Majesty, didn't you already ask in the carriage before, according to the rules, from the moment you arrive at the Hunting Palace, you will start fasting." Natsuko replied.
"Okay."
Shi Yu sighed and picked up the courier to clip some green vegetables, but after entering the mouth, he found that this was a boiled dish at all, and it was not even a little oily.
"Can't even put oil?"
"Back to the emperor, according to the rules, you really can't." Xiao Natsuko spoke helplessly.
Shi Yu stopped his chopsticks, sighed again, and looked at the dishes in front of him, he really had no appetite.
Soon, Shi Yu asked Xiao Xiazi to withdraw the dinner and bring some pastries, but was told that during the fasting period, even pastries should not be eaten.
"Your Majesty, if you endure it, it will be ten days, and when you return to the palace, the slave will definitely ask someone to prepare a bunch of delicious food for you!" Looking at his emperor's ugly face, Xiao Xiazi hurriedly comforted.
Shi Yu knew very well that Xiao Xiazi couldn't be the master of this matter, he just acted according to the rules set by the emperor, and finally waved his hand and sent people out.
After a simple wash, Shi Yu lay on the bed, but he couldn't sleep after tossing and turning.
At this time, she also smelled the aroma of pastries wafting from the dormitory next door.
Cuckoo......
Shi Yu's stomach screamed very uncontrollably, and after only a second of hesitation, she turned over and got out of bed, got dressed, opened the temple door and walked out.
Standing at the door of the dormitory, after making sure that the aroma of the pastries was wafting from Jing Heng's dormitory on the left, she raised her hand and knocked on the door of the hall.
The door of the temple was opened, and in the dormitory, there were many candles burning, and the chasing clouds that opened the door stood at the door.
"Is there something wrong with the emperor?"
"I still don't know much about hunting and festivals, so I'd like to ask the Overseer." Shi Yu found a reason, and looked over the chasing clouds to the palace.
Although it is a dormitory of the same size connected in one place, the layout in Jingheng's dormitory is obviously much more exquisite than hers. In particular, some of the utensils seem to be well prepared.
"Let the emperor in." As Jing Heng's voice sounded, Chasing Cloud immediately got out of the way.
Shi Yu walked into the hall and saw Jing Heng sitting on a chair by the window, holding a scroll in his hand, the hair bun that was usually tied up in it was half scattered behind his head at the moment, and his face became more and more fascinating.
Shi Yu was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes fell on the desk next to Jing Heng.
With two plates of pastries on top, it looks delicious.
"Good evening, Overseer." Shi Yu came back to his senses, said hello with a smile, and then walked straight to the chair on the other side of the desk and sat down.
"I don't know if the emperor doesn't understand something?" Jing Heng put down the scroll in his hand, looking patient.
"This ......" Shi Yu thought for a while, Yu Guang looked at the pastry and said with a smile, "Regarding tomorrow's hunt, when it started, I don't know if there is anything to pay attention to?" ”
She had already inquired with Xiao Xiazi before, although the Tianjin Kingdom would arrange a spring hunt every year, but the autumn hunt was once every three years, so the original owner had not participated in the autumn hunt since he ascended the throne, even if there was something unclear and needed to be consulted, it was a matter of course.
"When the hunt begins tomorrow, participants can form their own teams and then choose the winner based on the hunt's income, and the winner will receive a prize." Jing Heng paused for a moment and continued to speak, "According to the rules, the reward can be determined according to the emperor's wishes, whether it is money and treasures, or official positions. ”
"I will listen to the overseer, and I will reward whatever the overseer says." Shi Yu immediately spoke.
At the same time, he pretended to be casual and reached out to the pastry.
Jing Heng glanced at Shi Yu's small movements and hooked his lips lightly, "Then does the emperor have any suggestions?" ”
"No, the Overseer meant my advice." Shi Yu replied decisively, and at the same time stuffed the pastry into his mouth.
Very dense and sweet mung bean cake, for a moment, Shi Yu felt that his mouth was filled with the aroma of mung beans, and the smile on his face was a little more.
Jing Heng looked at Shi Yu's appearance and continued to speak: "If nothing else, the five princes will also participate in the hunt this year, and they may be the favorite candidates to win the top spot." ”
"Yes, is Nie Zhaoyi so powerful." Shi Yu casually picked up the stubble, and at the same time, picked up another piece of pastry.
It smells so good!
"Does the emperor want him to win the championship?"
"It doesn't matter, someone has to win anyway." Shi Yu began to concentrate on eating pastries without raising his head.
Nie Zhaoyi didn't participate, she didn't care if she won or not, she wanted to take advantage of Jing Heng to stop herself before she spoke, hurry up and eat more pastries, and she was so hungry that she couldn't sleep at night.
When the emperor reaches her point, it is estimated that there is no one left.
"But Weichen hopes that it is the emperor who wins that." Jing Heng suddenly spoke.
Shi Yu subconsciously raised his head, and his bulging cheeks were like hamsters.
What do you mean, do you want to participate in a hunting competition?
Anxious to speak, Shi Yu swallowed the pastry in his mouth at once, but it was stuck in his throat, and his face turned red with choking.
"Tea, tea ......" Shi Yu struggled to ask someone to bring her a cup of tea.
"This cup of tea Weichen hasn't drunk yet." Jing Heng's gaze gestured, the hot tea next to the pastry.
Shi Yu hurriedly picked it up and poured the tea.
The warm tea entered his throat, and the pastry was finally swallowed, but it was drunk too quickly, and it caused a cough.
"Ahem, ahem, ahem, ahem......"
Looking at Shi Yu, whose face was flushed and coughing desperately, Jing Heng secretly raised his eyebrows, looking at it strangely pitiful.
"Overseer, you mean, I'm going to hunt too?" Shi Yu finally stopped coughing and hurriedly asked.
"Your Majesty, is this unwilling?" Jing Heng asked with a smile.
Shi Yu immediately shook his head, "I don't want to, I don't know how to ride and shoot, if I have to say that I can play something in hunting, I'm afraid I will be the prey." ”
It is very likely that Nie Zhaoyi will not miss this opportunity, and he may be killed by an arrow when the time comes!
Jing Heng had a smile on his face, "If the emperor really doesn't want to hunt, then being a prey is also a good choice." ”
"Don't be kidding, I'm too cowardly to be scared." Shi Yu smiled and spoke, and silently stretched out his hand towards the pastry.
However, the next moment, Jing Heng's eyes fell on Shi Yuzheng's hand holding the pastry, and suddenly froze, "Your Majesty, Weichen's pastry is not eaten for nothing." ”
