Chapter 96, The Concubine Treats Guests

Speaking of which, it is not unusual for this Zhongguan to hold his head high and his chest out with dignity when outside the palace, but when he returns to the palace, he still walks around with his head held high and strutting. This must be the only one who is Zhongguan Yue.

It must have happened that Xiao Xingzi and Xiao Lezi had been following Yue Wangshu with a low eyebrow since they entered the Donghua Gate, and they became two little wives.

All the way back to Yunzhi Palace, Yue Wangshu suddenly realized that something was not right about the atmosphere in his palace. He walked into the main hall with confusion and saw His Majesty the Emperor with a stern face, sitting on the Grand Master's chair with a golden sword, and standing beside him.

Looking at Zhang Ji, the chief eunuch, and Li Yue, the chief eunuch in her palace, it was like a three-chamber trial!

Yue Wangshu complained, and Xiao Lezi and Xiao Xingzi had already flopped to the ground, their faces pale with fright, and they did not dare to express their anger.

Yue Wangshu Wuzi took off his hat first and put it on the hat stand nearby, and then stepped forward to salute. He was originally going to salute with blessings, but wearing this clothes, he always felt something was wrong, so he changed his hands to bow.

, "How long has it been since the Emperor came?"

Yan Zheng's tone was cold: "It's only been an hour."

Yue Wangshu: "Uh..." It was almost not long after she left the palace.

In fact, since Yue Wangshu came back, Yan Zheng's anger has subsided by three points. In fact, Yan Zheng is more uneasy and fearful than angry. But seeing that she came back in just over an hour, Yan Zheng really can't find anything out.

The reason for getting angry.

After all, it was agreed in advance that she was allowed to leave the palace at will, as long as she reported it in advance and did not stay outside the palace overnight.

Wangshu did not breach the contract.

"You are in a hurry. You just got the waist card and you can't wait to leave the palace!" Yan Zheng was still a little unhappy.

Yue Wangshu scratched his head: "I just went out to get some fresh air. I forgot that there is a national mourning and there is nothing interesting in the capital." - It would be great if I could go to Rose Ridge.

Yan Zheng was suddenly aroused with anger: "My capital is not enough for you to play with?!"

Yue Wangshu: Why does this guy seem to have taken gunpowder?

Yue Wangshu blinked, "Your Majesty, did something happen in the court today? Someone made you angry?"

Yan Zheng was angry and funny at the same time. Besides you, who else dares to make me angry? But suddenly he saw the sweat on Wang Shu's head and snorted, "Go and change clothes and wash up! What's wrong with this look?"

Decency?"

Yue Wangshu couldn't help but cursed: Didn't you give me these eunuch official uniforms? I haven't complained about the poor material and not being breathable and refreshing enough!

"The concubine is going to change her clothes first." Yue Wangshu was surrounded by several palace ladies and went to the inner room to change her clothes.

As soon as their master left, Xiao Xingzi and Xiao Lezi had to face the pressure of His Majesty the Emperor, and they immediately broke out in cold sweat.

"What's in the box?" Yan Zheng asked with a frown when he saw one of the eunuchs holding a rather large wooden box in his arms.

The eunuch Xiao Lezi kowtowed and quickly held up the box with both hands, "When the master was having tea, he saw that the candied haws and candied man were very good, so he asked the slave to buy them."

Saying that, Xiao Lezi quickly added: "It's specially for the emperor and the eldest princess."

Yue Wangshu clearly said it was for the eldest princess, but this little kid was good at talking and turned the eldest princess into a piggyback.

Although Yan Zheng was not interested in things from the market, when he heard that it was specially given to him, all the anger in his heart disappeared.

Seeing this, Zhang Ji breathed a sigh of relief, quickly took the box, opened it himself and presented it to his prince. There were quite a few things in the box, one of them was round and round... I don't know if it was a cat or a dog, and there were

A dozen candied haws.

Xiao Lezi couldn't help but secretly rejoice that he had bought a few more candied haws.

At this moment, Yue Wangshu walked out in a brocade coat and skirt. He saw that the gift he had purchased had been presented to the emperor, and said: "That big fat cat is for Chou, give her two more gifts."

Just candied haws on a stick."

By the way, why did you buy so many candied haws?

Yue Wangshu originally planned to give a skewer to Su Yu and eat one himself.

There are probably ten or eight sticks in this big box right now. The weather is so hot that it will easily melt if you can’t finish it. If it melts, you won’t be able to eat it.

"Your Majesty, this is sour, sweet and very appetizing. Do you want to try it?" Yue Wangshu took out a bunch and handed it to His Majesty the Emperor.

Yan Zheng actually didn't like this kind of sour food, but Wang Shu was so kind. He hesitated for a moment and said, "I'll only eat one, and I'll give the rest to you." After saying that, he took a bite and left.

I picked up the biggest hawthorn at the top.

Yue Wangshu was stunned for a moment. There seemed to be something wrong with what he said...

She took a bite and felt a mixture of sour and sweet taste in her mouth. She immediately stopped thinking about what was wrong and said, "Well, these candied haws are well made, the skin is crispy and not sticky at all!" - The core of the hawthorns has also been removed.

Don't worry about your teeth breaking if you bite into it.

Emperor Yan Zheng finally swallowed it and quickly picked up the tea and took a few sips. He couldn't help but laugh and said, "Why do you act like a child and like to eat such sour things?"

Yue Wangshu was very unconvinced. Why can candied haws only be eaten by children?!

After finishing a candied haws in one go, Yue Wangshu couldn't help but feel sour in his teeth, so he had to drink tea to slowly relieve the pain.

At this time, Zhang Degui, the eunuch in front of the emperor, walked in quickly, kowtowed and reported: "Your Majesty, the eunuch of Yikang Palace came to send a message, saying that the noble concubine came to ask the emperor and the noble concubines if they have time to have a casual meal?"

Is the imperial concubine treating you to a treat? Yue Wangshu looked at the emperor in confusion.

Yan Zheng was silent for a moment, "That's fine." - Some things should be dealt with as soon as possible.

Okay, I just returned to the palace, and I had to sneak away to the imperial concubine's palace for a banquet. No, during the national mourning period, there is no banquet, only light meals.

After arriving with the emperor, they were shocked to find that the imperial concubine not only invited her and the emperor, but also invited Concubine Xiang!

After saluting and saying hello, Concubine Xiang took the initiative to hold her hand and said, "My sister is here."

Yue Wangshu instantly sensed that this noble concubine was not simply inviting someone to have a casual meal, so he smiled and said nonsense politely: "It turns out that the empress is here, why didn't you bring the eldest princess?"

Concubine Xiang's smile suddenly became unnatural, "Take the candied haws you gave me to Concubine Rong's palace, saying that you want to eat it with the third princess."

The imperial concubine immediately smiled and praised: "Rao Yu is a good child who understands filial piety and brotherhood. She deserves to be the eldest daughter of the emperor."

Yue Wangshu couldn't help complaining: This praise is a bit deliberate.

Concubine Xiang also felt very embarrassed, so she quickly asked: "Where did my sister get the candied haws?"

Yue Wangshu: I bought it on the street outside the palace.

Emperor Yan Zheng lied without blushing: "Of course it was made in her small kitchen."

In fact, there are small kitchens in every palace and courtyard, but they are only used to boil hot water and make milk tea, so they are not considered serious kitchens.

Concubine Xiang didn't want to get to the bottom of it, she just wanted to change the subject and ease the embarrassment.

Seeing this, the imperial concubine smiled and said: "It's getting late, let's have lunch first."

Yue Wangshu nodded secretly: That's right, let's start the meal quickly.

She was already hungry after leaving the palace and wandering around.
