Chapter 261: The State Banquet of the Hall of Preserving Harmony
She had to fulfill her promise to the prince. Chu Qiao turned around and walked slowly towards the direction of Baohe Hall. Looking at the gradually melting snow around her and the warmer weather, she entered
The palace has been around for some time, and the layout of the environment here has become clearer and clearer, and it is not as confusing as it was at first. However, there is no progress at all in the case of her uncle. The matter is far more difficult than she imagined. What is the next step?
If she continues, she needs to think about it carefully.
Maybe An Ge's assassination happened, and there were guards waiting at every intersection in the palace. Chu Qiao didn't have to worry about being attacked again.
When going to Baohe Palace, you must pass by Jingren Palace. When you passed the gate, you unexpectedly saw Ye Yunfang and Mingzhu moving large and small packages into Jingren Palace. Ye Yunfang seemed to have lost a lot of weight.
, it has been a while since the last time she asked Chu Qiao to go to the Royal Garden, and she has never come to Chu Qiao again. She must have despaired of Chu Qiao's stubbornness, and no longer wants to expect her to have any big breakthroughs.
.
At this time, Ye Yunfang was looking towards Chu Qiao and quickly looked away. However, Mingzhu saw Chu Qiao and ran over stupidly.
"Xiao...Chunxiang, the empress has restored her status as Zhaoyi and moved back to Jingren Palace. This is all due to you."
Mingzhu always spoke so carelessly, but fortunately there were no other empresses around, and Chu Qiao wasn't that anxious. She just smiled.
"This is the blessing of Empress Zhaoyi."
"Empress Zhaoyi also said that when she returns to Jingren Palace this time, she would like to invite you to come and sit with her." Mingzhu said with a smile.
Invite Chu Qiao to come over and sit down? Chu Qiao didn’t believe that Empress Zhaoyi sincerely invited her. This treacherous woman wanted to have a chance to climb up the ladder. She came to her and asked her to come up with some ideas. Chu Qiao had a hard time
After getting rid of this woman, how can I be willing to have a relationship with her again?
"Please convey on my behalf that as a medical woman, Chu Qiao cannot enter the palace of the empress at will. If the empress feels any discomfort, I can ask the imperial doctor to come over on my behalf."
Mingzhu could naturally hear Chu Qiao's rejection. She walked a few steps closer to Chu Qiao and asked in a low voice.
"I heard that you are now Empress Hua's wife? You are so powerful, no wonder you don't like to talk to Empress Zhaoyi."
"Mingzhu, don't talk nonsense. I'm just a medical girl at the Imperial Hospital now. It's not as complicated as you think. When I go to Chonghua Palace, I just treat the seventh prince's body and deliver medicine." Chu Qiao was a little confused, where did she hear this Mingzhu?
There must be nothing wrong with the news. I asked around randomly.
Generally speaking, people who keep to themselves in the palace and ask for gossip will probably not end well. Mingzhu is trying to catch her to death.
"Don't ask about things you shouldn't ask about. I have something to do now and I have to leave." After Chu Qiao warned Mingzhu, she started to leave, but Mingzhu's voice rang again.
"I know that you have been promoted and don't want to deal with us palace maids anymore, but don't forget that you are actually not Li Chunxiang at all."
Mingzhu actually shouted such a sentence, which made Chu Qiao stop. She turned her eyes to Mingzhu, lowered her voice, and smiled coldly.
"Mingzhu, don't forget how I got into the palace. I believe it won't do you and Ye Liangshi any good if this matter is spread out. But my status is different now. There are several adults who can speak for me. You can use any excuse.
We can all put it off, but what about you? If you don’t say anything, you will probably be kicked out of the palace!”
One sentence made Mingzhu turn pale. She opened and closed her mouth, not daring to speak any more.
"I'm leaving so I can take care of myself."
After Chu Qiao said this, she glanced at Ye Yunfang who was looking at her in Jingren Palace, took a step forward, and walked forward. No matter what they thought about Chu Qiao, as long as they followed Zhaoyi Empress Li Yerong, Chu
Joe will have nothing to do with them anymore.
Mingzhu looked at Chu Qiao's back and stamped her foot angrily.
"You see she is so proud now that she has forgotten how she got in in the first place."
"Okay, let's get to work."
Ye Yunfang rolled her eyes at Mingzhu, then looked at Chu Qiao's back. After staring at it for a long time, she carried the baggage and headed towards Empress Zhaoyi's palace.
At the entrance of the Baohe Hall, Master Shangshi watched the dishes being delivered to the Baohe Hall one by one, and watched the eunuchs taste the meals. Occasionally, he would also look to the east of the Baohe Hall. How did Li Chunxiang get to this point?
Haven't shown up yet?
When Xue Wanyue was anxious, she saw Chu Qiao walking quickly from a distance wearing the clothes of a high-end royal chef. At first glance, she really looked like a capable and handsome man. People who didn't know her wouldn't know that she was a woman.
"Didn't I ask you to come in palace clothes?" Xue Wanyue came up to greet her and asked Chu Qiao strangely.
"On the way here, something happened. The Thirteenth Prince blocked a knife for me and injured my lower abdomen. Now I am still lying in the Imperial Hospital, still in danger. My palace clothes are also stained with blood and cannot be worn here.
, Ange was injured this time, and there is a lack of chefs in the imperial dining room, so Chunxiang has no choice but to take over temporarily and defy the emperor's order."
Mentioning An Ge's injury, Chu Qiao was still very sad and her eyes were red.
Xue Wanyue also heard about An Ge's injury. She just sent someone to the Tai Hospital to inquire. She was worried that the state banquet would be affected. However, seeing that all the meals were delivered, she kept wondering, could it be Eunuch Lan?
After going down to the imperial dining room in person, she felt that something was wrong. When she saw Chu Qiao, Xue Wanyue finally understood that this girl helped to save the situation, so how could she blame her?
"The emperor knows about this, and he won't say anything if I'm afraid. Come on, come in with me."
Xue Wanyue's heart was relieved, and a happy smile appeared on her face. She walked in front, and Chu Qiao followed her, entering the Baohe Hall one after another.
Although Chu Qiao has been in the palace for a long time, she has never entered the palace a few times. As soon as she stepped into the Baohe Hall, she was shocked by the momentum inside.
There are six ceiling beams at the top of the head. The paintings are extremely unique. The main color is red, which is very harmonious with the surrounding furnishings. There is a carved golden lacquered throne from north to south. There is a warm pavilion between the east and west ends. Even the door at hand is relief.
Make the space spacious and comfortable, and look luxurious and rich.
The Baohe Hall is already full of guests and friends. The emperor and queen are on top, the empress dowager is on the right, and the VIP seats are the Mongolian queen and princess, as well as several Mongolian warriors.
As for the appearance of these people, Chu Qiao did not dare to show off too much. She lowered her head and followed Xue Wan, standing on the west side of the hall, behind some ministers.
After standing firm, Chu Qiao dared to slowly raise her chin. The moment she raised her eyes, her heart was shocked. She actually saw Chong Ximo. His position was just right, on the east side of the hall.
, facing her, he was looking at her with deep eyes.
