Chapter 369

In view of Lin Zhu's good fortune, the emperor once again asked her to stay in the palace for a few days to accompany the newly pregnant Empress Lan.

As we all know, Concubine Lan only had Lin Zhu among her natal family members, and Concubine Lan was an advanced pregnant woman, so it was easy for people to accept Lin Zhu's presence in the palace again. Of course, there were many people who took it for granted.

Concubine Lan had all the treatment that other concubines could enjoy when they were pregnant, and it was even worse. This caused many concubines to be envious, jealous, and hateful.

"Vomiting." Empress Lan Fei, who was having lunch with Lin Zhu, suddenly started to gag. As long as she smelled the various delicacies placed on the table, she would retching involuntarily.

"Take it away." After rinsing her mouth with water, Concubine Lan asked someone to take away all the half-eaten food.

"Your Majesty, you are so cruel, why don't you ask the imperial doctor to take a look?" the personal palace maid suggested with concern.

"No need." Empress Lan Fei waved her hand feebly, "It all looks the same." Ever since they found out she was pregnant, the imperial doctors have come to check for pulse every day. Symptoms such as nausea are not something they can control, and

For safety reasons during pregnancy, medication cannot be taken indiscriminately, so there is nothing they can do.

Moreover, Lin Zhu specially asked Dr. Zhang to write down some precautions during pregnancy for Empress Lan Fei, so she no longer took those tonics unless necessary.

"Is there anything you want to eat now?" Lin Zhu also asked people to remove all the food on his table. He walked to Empress Lan Fei and asked the palace servants to bring a glass of water and put it in front of her.

.

"I don't want to eat those big fish and meat. I feel sick when I see them." Concubine Lan's eyes were dull, her stomach was empty, but she had no appetite at all, and because she had vomited out all the food she had just eaten,

My throat is still slightly sore, so my speech is a little hoarse. "If there are fresh cucumbers and the like now, I would like to eat some."

Not only cucumbers, but also some fresh vegetables and so on, Concubine Lan wants to eat. But it’s almost November and the weather is very cold, so it’s hard to find these things. Even the palace can’t get rid of them.

Seasonal things change.

Lin Zhu nodded after hearing this, because she was vomiting. There was no taste in her mouth, so it was normal to eat something bland. She had also heard that pregnant people's food would change, and it was normal to pick and choose.

.

The palace ladies on the side were very embarrassed. They sincerely hoped that the master could bring in more food, but the current season was really wrong.

"There should be some vegetables and the like in the village. Do you want someone to send some over?" Originally, Empress Lan had been eating ingredients sent by people from the General's Palace. But later, due to the dissatisfaction of many concubines, Empress Lan

She didn’t want people to say that she was pampered and coquettish. But after she got pregnant, she was not allowed to give it away anymore.

Now that she was so uncomfortable, her cheeks, which were still round before she became pregnant, were no longer thinner. For the health of her and the fetus in her belly, Lin Zhu mentioned this matter again.

Empress Lan Fei was also a little moved. Although the ingredients at Linzhu Zhuangzi were very ordinary, and the imperial dining room also had them, they tasted better than the ingredients sent by Huangzhuang.

"Miss Zhu, it would be best if you could send me something. Your Majesty really likes what you sent me." Before Empress Lan Fei nodded, the maid beside her spoke eagerly.

The people around Concubine Lan naturally knew that the things Lin Zhu sent were all good, and they had been feeling aggrieved by Concubine Lan for a long time since she stopped. However, because the imperial kitchen also picked up good things and sent them over, they did not complain.

However, since Concubine Lan made the scandal, they have thought about the ingredients sent by Lin Zhu again. Now that Lin Zhu has brought it up again, they certainly hope that Concubine Lan will agree.

Seeing that Concubine Lan was in a dilemma, Lin Zhu could also understand her difficulty. Being independent in the palace was the most eye-catching. Although there was competition among the concubines because of the emperor's favor, if a person was too

If it is exceeded, it will lead to collective jealousy or resentment from others.

Therefore, for the newly pregnant Empress Lan Fei, it is better not to provoke this kind of public outrage if it can be avoided.

Seeing that Concubine Lan was hesitant, Lin Zhu did not try to persuade her any further, but she had her own plans in mind.

News came from the General's Mansion that the first batch of off-season vegetables from Zhuyuan Hot Spring Village in Song County is on the way and will arrive in the capital soon.

On the one hand, this batch of vegetables will be supplied to Zuixianlou, which is what Mu Qiyue and Lin Zhu have agreed upon. In order to get the top spot in this food appreciation party, Mu Qiyue has already known that Lin Zhu has such a village.

I said hello.

Of course, not all of these vegetables could be supplied to Zuixianlou, so Lin Zhu also set aside some to send to the General's Mansion.

The pregnancy of Concubine Lan was an unexpected surprise. General Chang was extremely happy and collected a lot of good things, all of which were prepared for his unborn grandson. Now Concubine Lan wants to eat some fresh vegetables because of her bad taste. Needless to say, General Chang

I will also be willing to provide this batch of vegetables to Empress Lan Fei first.

Of course, if you want these out-of-season vegetables to enter the palace, you must first obtain permission from the emperor. Only in this way, the concubines in the harem will not have any objections. But it is obviously not suitable for Empress Lan to personally raise this issue that is easily criticized.

Require.

Although Lin Zhu knew that the emperor's attitude towards her was quite gentle, she was not arrogant enough to think that if she asked for this favor, he would readily agree. This still required someone who would not be angry with the emperor to propose it.

This candidate was of course Mu Qiyue, who relied on Lin Zhu. The emperor was also very concerned about the food appreciation party, and would ask Mu Qiyue to come into the palace from time to time to report on the situation. So Mu Qiyue had the opportunity to help Empress Lan Fei.

Ask for this love.

Vegetables that should not appear in this season suddenly appear and will be served at a food appreciation party. Of course the emperor will be interested.

There are many precious flowers and trees in the palace, and they will be taken care of carefully when winter comes. Therefore, greenhouses will be built in the palace to protect some delicate flowers and trees for the winter.

With this experience, it will naturally be used in growing vegetables. However, the cost of a greenhouse is too huge, and even the palace cannot build such a greenhouse on a large scale.

Therefore, when the cold season comes every year, the number of off-season vegetables that can be harvested in the palace is really limited. Except for the emperor and queen who can eat some occasionally, other people do not have this honor.

Therefore, even Concubine Lan, who had a hard time getting pregnant, was not able to do this because her status was too different from that of the Queen.

I heard that there are a lot of fresh vegetables, how could the emperor not be curious?

"Back to the emperor, these are all grown on a hot spring village." Mu Qiyue was also responsible for answering questions. He told the emperor how to use the geothermal heat next to the hot spring to grow some off-season vegetables.

He explained in detail. At the end, he also suggested, "Your Majesty, you might as well let the people from Huangzhuang try it."

Of course, there is no need for him to remind me. After listening to his words, the emperor also had this idea. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
