Chapter 42: Cooking Individuals

Fang Xu, who arrived at the palace gate, didn't know that in just a quarter of an hour, Xie Li actually promised himself out.

The three masters and servants were led in, and there were palace men leading the way in front of them.

Fang Xu turned his head sideways quietly, and Su Zi on the side instantly understood, took out a purse from his waist, raised a smile, and complimented, "Sister, can you take a step to speak?" ”

The palace maid who led the way paused, lowered her eyes and looked at Su Zi's palm, where a heavy purse was lying there, and the weight was not small.

The palace maid turned in a different direction without changing her face and led the three of them to a rockery.

"What do you want to ask?" The palace maid took the purse in Su Zi's hand and slowly stuffed it into her sleeve, it seems that she often does this.

"Sister." Su Zi smiled knowingly, and took two steps forward to put it on, "Our lady came to the palace after receiving the queen's mother's fold, and now I want to ask you, is the queen's mood good or bad today." ”

The palace maid glanced at the three of them and lowered her voice, "The queen mother has been quite bored recently, how to get in and out of the food in the Yikun Palace, it must be because the mother has a poor appetite, Madame had better pay attention to her words and deeds, Mo Yan touched that person's moldy head." ”

Fang Xu listened, had some consideration in his heart, and nodded towards Su Zi.

Su Zi smiled, and stuffed two pieces of broken silver to the palace maid, "It's still my sister who lives transparently, and today is really thanks to you." ”

Pinching the silver in her hand, the palace maid smiled slightly, and her tone softened, "It's not too early, the slave maid will bring the lady over earlier." ”

Fang Xu agreed, turned a few corridors, and finally arrived at the gate of Yikun Palace, there was a woman lingering in front of the door, look at that appearance, it should be a grandmother in the palace.

The palace maid saluted and retired, leaving the three masters and servants.

When Mama saw Fang Xu, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she hurriedly stepped forward and asked in a loud voice, "But Mrs. Yongcheng?" ”

Fang Xu couldn't figure out where this mama's excitement came from, but he also nodded calmly.

"Oh, I'm finally looking forward to you!" Mama's smile enlarged, and her tone seemed to be relieved, "The old slave is Chang Mama next to the queen's mother, and the mother has an order to send the old slave to wait for Mrs. here." ”

Fang Xu hooked his lips and softly called Mama.

Mama Chang smiled happily and raised her hand towards the inner courtyard, "Madame, please, Niangniang has been waiting for you for a long time." ”

After that, Mama Chang walked in first, and the three masters and servants followed behind her and stepped into the Yikun Palace.

The furnishings in the courtyard are luxurious, the begonia flowers bloom on both sides, the fragrance in the courtyard is always there, the palace lamp is on the ground, and the mahogany frame is inlaid with five-color gemstones, which is dazzling.

The beautiful scenery was in front of him, but Fang Xu had no intention of appreciating it, and his mind was full of only the queen's intentions.

Pushing open the door of the hall, Mama Chang's tone was cheerful, "Madam, please come here." ”

The main hall of Yikun Palace is very large, there are two upper seats, and there are about more than 20 chairs in the lower seat.

Mama Chang's footsteps did not stop, but brought Fang Xu to the inner hall.

The decoration of the inner sanctum is not as luxurious as the outside, but it is low-key and introverted, clean and tidy.

There was a woman sitting on the soft collapse of the hall, with an elegant face and a dignified posture, dressed in a dark red robe, with beaded flowers on her sideburns, a phoenix crown on her head, and a tired face around her, as if she had not slept all night.

"Niangniang, Yongcheng Houfu has arrived!" Mama Chang led Fang Xu into the house, raised her voice, and looked happy.

Queen Zhu was stunned for a moment, raised her eyes, and just met the gaze of Xu above.

"I've seen the ......"

"Stop all this nonsense, sit down quickly." Empress Zhu looked anxious and patted the vacant seat on her side.

Fang Xu paused, looked at the queen in surprise, thought twice, and sat a little away from her.

Queen Zhu was not annoyed, but the urgency in her eyes was a little more, "I heard Ah Lan say in this palace, you are very good at cooking others?" ”

Fang Xu blinked his eyes and asked softly, "The person in Niangniang's mouth...... But the sister of the concubine? ”

"Nature."

Fang Xu received a response and pursed the corners of his mouth, "Maybe." ”

"That's great!" Zhu Empress's face instantly brightened, and there was a light smile on her lips, "There is someone here in this palace, you help to take care of her!" ”

"Material...... Cooking to death? Fang Xu was dumbfounded, and Su Zi and Bai Ji behind him also looked at each other.

"yes, kill her!" Queen Zhu gritted her teeth, her gentle and generous face was now wrinkled, and those who watched it were terrified.

"Niangniang is in a high position, if you want to start, why do you need to be a concubine?" Fang Xu didn't understand, so he simply asked directly.

Empress Zhu sighed and touched her temples with her fingertips, "If this palace can do it, why bother you?" ”

"Can't even deal with it?" Fang Xu's face froze, "What kind of character is this?" ”

I won't let her take care of the emperor!

I wish the queen's body softened a little, and the tiredness between her eyebrows and eyes became stronger, "You listen to the palace and you in detail." ”

"The year before last, there were frequent floods in the south of the Yangtze River, and countless disaster funds were allocated, but they never worked, which caused the emperor a headache." Empress Zhu's expression was faint, and she didn't even have the strength to raise her eyelids, "When the prince reached the age of the last dynasty, he was also worried when he learned about it. ”

"Later, Jiangnan became more and more difficult to control, so the prince asked himself to leave the palace and assist in controlling the water."

"Everything is fine, the prince has been gone for two years, the floods in Jiangnan have been controlled, and he has only recently returned." Speaking of this, Queen Zhu had a hint of anger in her eyes, "But it's ...... The prince met a peasant girl in Jiangnan, and he had a hot fight with him, even... He even hid her in a carriage before leaving and brought her back to Beijing! ”

"In order to protect her, the prince didn't even bother to go to court, and repeatedly took leave." After saying this, Queen Zhu seemed to have lost her strength completely, and leaned lazily on the couch, "The palace has sent someone to negotiate with this woman, but she has no repentance at all, and her mouth is full of love that is higher than the sky." ”

"Mrs. Yongcheng Hou, you quickly give me a way!" I wish the queen to hold her forehead, with a bitter face, "This palace is really out of line." ”

As soon as Fang Xu was about to speak, a little palace maid ran in from outside the door, and knelt on the ground, "Niangniang, Miss Lu has arrived!" ”

Hearing the little palace maid's mouth, Miss Lu was visibly blown up by the naked eye, and she no longer had her previous lifeless appearance, but was full of fighting spirit.

Fang Xu Ran knew that this Lu girl should be the peasant girl brought back by the prince of the stupid hat.

"Mrs. Yongcheng!" Queen Zhu looked at Fang Xu, her eyes were full of hope, as if she was waiting for her to reply.

Fang Xu sighed, "Niangniang, the concubine will go with you." ”

Queen Zhu instantly beat the chicken blood, and said in a low voice, "Don't worry, there is this palace for you to block anything, you just do it!" ”

Fang Xu got up and said softly, "Let's go, Niangniang." ”

The two of them came to the outer hall one after the other, and in just two hundred meters, Queen Zhu found out seventeen mistakes of Miss Lu, and Fang Xu couldn't help but laugh when she listened.

In the hall, Lu Tingting was wearing an ivory white cloud shirt, wearing a jade hairpin, her body was thin, her skin was healthy wheat, and her small hands were stacked on her knees, looking pitiful.

Seeing that the queen came out, Lu Tingting slowly got up and made a four-like salute, her voice was like a mosquito, "The folk girl has seen the queen's mother." ”
