Sure enough, the old palace maid soon became rosy again and said: "Just now... I was so excited. Your Majesty, you actually called me eldest sister... I feel happy..." As she spoke, the old palace maid suddenly choked up.
The tears of happiness couldn't stop flowing.
Duoduo couldn't help but said with shame: "Sister, do you need to be so exaggerated? I'm not a god. Besides, calling you eldest sister can't bring you glory and wealth. Why are you excited?"
"My dear, you don't know that our steward likes you. Who in the palace doesn't know that you beat up Concubine Yan in Zhaoyang Palace and defeated all the others? The one in charge she hates the most is Concubine Yan, so she likes you very much.
Woolen cloth!"
The kitchen manager also said: "Yes, I was thinking at that time that if I had the chance to meet my mother-in-law, I would definitely go crazy with excitement. I'm fine today, I'm not crazy."
The chefs also said: "My wife, you are different from other concubines. Others are superior, but you have no airs at all."
Arrogance? Duoduo really wants to say that I am a prisoner now, how can I still put on airs?
Duoduo didn't want to continue this topic, so he changed the subject and returned to food.
"These meals are really delicious. Why don't the ones I usually eat taste as delicious?"
The cooks laughed together and said: "Of course, you don't put so much thought into making food for others. We in the kitchen have better control over the selection of ingredients and the cooking time for what we eat ourselves. Madam, can you do this?"
Don't tell anyone, our heads will be at risk."
"Oh, how can it be so serious?" the old palace maid said: "In the entire harem, we in the kitchen are the ones with the straightest backs. Even the concubines don't dare to mess with us casually. If they annoy us, they will be directly punished by them.
Add some strong spices to the food, and you won’t die if you eat it again and again, and there is no evidence to suspect us!”
"Big news?" Duoduo didn't quite understand.
"The shocking news is -" the old palace maid did not continue, and said with an embarrassed smile: "Haha, it's better not to say it, so as not to disgust the queen."
Hearing what the old palace maid said, Duoduo had already figured out what those powerful ingredients were, and suddenly lost all appetite. Anyway, he had almost eaten, so he put down his bowl and chopsticks.
"My dear, I'm here, this is my honor!" The old palace maid rushed to take away the bowl.
"Come, Madam, let's have some soup after dinner." A little palace maid named Bing'er brought up a bowl of three delicacies soup.
Duoduo also felt a little thirsty, so he raised his head and drank it all. He felt that the taste was really good. The people in the kitchen were really selfish and kept the good stuff for themselves.
"Someone is coming!" I don't know who shouted, so Duoduo had to pick up a mop in the kitchen and mop it on the floor to avoid being said that she came to the kitchen to serve others, not to work.
The people in the kitchen also hurriedly cleaned up the things. Although the concubines would not mess with the imperial dining room casually, it is not good for others to see them gossiping.
A palace maid walked in with her head bowed, carrying a vegetable basket.
"Sister?" The palace maid saw Duoduo with his head lowered and sweeping the floor at a glance. She couldn't believe it at first. When she came closer, tears suddenly flowed out of her eyes: "Sister, what's wrong with you? Why are you here dressed like this?
Mopping the floor?"
From a pampered concubine to a floor-sweeping worker in the imperial kitchen, Jin Lian could not connect the two.
"Oh Jin Lian! So you are now the wife of Concubine Qian. Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Everyone in the imperial dining room came over to get close to her.
Jin Lian had no intention of talking to them, she only wanted to understand why her sister had fallen into this state.
"It's okay girl, how is Bin'er? Is he still in Zizhuwan?"
"Yes, but now they are watching so closely that even Bin'er can't go out. Ever since he saw you being punished in the rain, he hasn't had the appetite to eat, so I'm here to see if there is anything new to appetize.
Yeah, take some back."
When the old palace maid heard this, she immediately said: "Yes, yes, we have a lot of treasures in the imperial kitchen. Take some braised plums and put them back. Children like to eat them. They taste good and are appetizing."
As a result, Jinlian's vegetable basket was quickly filled with all kinds of fresh fruits and meals, but Jinlian still looked at Duoduo with a worried look.
Duoduo had no choice but to say: "Don't worry, girl, I'm just making a bet with the emperor. He said I can't bear the hardship. I want to let him know that I'm not such a weak woman. It's really okay. Don't worry."
"Bet? Stop lying to yourself and others. You've already blown your lies to the sky, so you don't have to be ashamed, huh!" Under the leadership of Concubine Yan, a group of concubines walked in from outside with great pride.
"Bet? Stop lying to yourself and others. You've already blown your lies to the sky, so you don't have to be ashamed, huh!" Under the leadership of Concubine Yan, a group of concubines walked in from the outside arrogantly.
Each of those women seemed to have smiling faces, but in reality they were fierce and ferocious. As soon as they entered, Duoduo was surrounded.
Seeing this, the old palace maid quickly called to the chefs: "What are you looking at? The emperor is still waiting to eat the Buddha and jump over the wall, why don't you do it quickly?"
"Oh, here it comes!"
The chefs quickly understood what the stewards meant and got to work immediately!
Soon, the entire kitchen was filled with smoke, and the pungent smell of chili peppers made the pampered concubines burst into tears, and they couldn't help but sneeze at each other.
"Everyone, stop it!" Concubine Yan suddenly shouted: "You are simply impudent. The Emperor has just given instructions that no one is allowed to approach the Imperial Study Room and disturb him. How could he jump over the wall if he wants to eat something? If you don't stop, I will
I will immediately have your hands and feet chopped off. If you don’t believe me, just give it a try!”
Although the chefs were in charge of the power of heaven, they were still wary of the arrogant and domineering Concubine Yan. When they heard the tigress's roar, they had to stop what they were doing and stand aside to worry about Duoduo.
"Jin Lian, you have nothing to do here. You go back first. Taking care of Bin'er is the most important thing."
"Sister..." Jin Lian looked worried, but there was nothing she could do. She couldn't help much by staying, so she walked out of the door with the vegetable basket in her arms.
Suddenly, a foot stretched out from the group of concubines, and Jin Lian was accidentally tripped to the ground. There was a sound of "ping waves banging", and all the food and fruits in the vegetable basket fell to the ground.
"Jinlian!" Duoduo ran over and helped the person up: "How are you? Are there any scratches?"
Jin Lian opened her hands and saw that the skin on her palms had been scratched and blood was oozing out.
"Concubine Ming, I warn you not to go so far!" Duoduo stood up and pointed at Concubine Ming's nose, it was she who tripped Jin Lian.
"Hey, hey, who are you? You are wearing cheap clothes, why are you yelling at me here?" Concubine Ming particularly hated Duoduo, and it was because of Duoduo that she knelt under the scorching sun for most of the day.
.
"Sister, I'm fine!" Jin Lian knew that her master was in a bad situation now, and was afraid that if she couldn't bear it for a while, it would cause trouble again, so she quickly took her hand, looked at her, and shook her head gently.
Duoduo clenched her fists, really wanting to beat her up, or even beat up these women, because of grandma's legs, this debt will have to be settled with them sooner or later!
"Sister, I'm really fine. It's just a bit of a broken skin. It's not painful. If you don't believe it, look at it." Jin Lian said, reaching out to pick up the fruit on the ground.
"Ah!" Jin Lian suddenly couldn't help but make a sound.
Concubine Ming's foot actually stepped hard on the back of Jin Lian's hand, and she crushed it several times. Jin Lian had a look of pain on her face and tried hard to withdraw her hand.
"You bitch!" Duoduo couldn't bear it anymore and slapped Concubine Ming in the face!
An extremely loud sound shocked everyone in the imperial dining room!
Concubine Ming was knocked to the ground by a slap. Just as she was about to stand up, Duoduo's toes had already touched her chin.
"Wow... Poof!" Concubine Ming suddenly vomited blood, and at least three teeth spurted out along with the blood.
The concubines were all frightened, and all the arrogance in their eyes was frightened away. Even Concubine Yan was shocked: "You, Concubine Qian, you are so courageous. You actually dare to take action for a palace maid."
Hurtful!"
"Humph, aren't palace maids human? Don't think that I only beat Concubine Ming. Since I've beaten them all, none of you can escape!"
After Duoduo finished speaking, his body suddenly turned 180 degrees, took two steps, and hit Concubine Yan in the chest with a powerful back kick!
Although this kick was used for three times without any effect, the women who were hiding behind Concubine Yan were all kicked to the ground. If they used all their strength, those bitches would be disabled or even dead!
It was the first time for the cooks to see such a skilled woman, and their faces were all excited. Although they did not dare to cheer for Concubine Qian out loud, they were secretly cheering for her.
The group of women screamed when they were thrown. They struggled to get up one by one, turned around and ran out the door.
"Don't run, stop right here!" Concubine Yan ordered, and then the concubines turned around.
"Sister, what's wrong with you?" Jin Lian suddenly reached out to support her master and asked with a worried look on her face.
Concubine Yan winked at the many concubines and said, "Today it's not us who are bullying others, but others who are bullying us. Even if the emperor blames them, we are the ones to blame!"
"Yes, sisters, come on!" Concubine Ming had three of her teeth kicked out and was on the verge of going crazy. Seeing Duoduo looking unsteady, she screamed and rushed over, and gave Duoduo to her in one fell swoop.
Knocked to the ground.
At this moment, Duoduo just felt like the world was spinning. He couldn't forcefully bring up his Qi, and his heart hurt so much that he almost suffocated: "I've been poisoned..."
"Poisoned! It's impossible, we all eat the same thing!" the steward of the imperial kitchen said nervously.
"It's her!" A chef suddenly pointed at the palace maid named Bing'er and said, "She made the three fresh soup for Concubine Qian alone!"
Bing'er, on the other hand, walked quickly behind Concubine Yan, not daring to look into the eyes of the cooks.
"As expected, it's you bitch!" the old palace maid cursed angrily.
"Bold, I am here, when will you be allowed to roar?" Concubine Yan said with a wicked smile on her face, "Sisters, if you want to take revenge, it depends on today!"
"Come on!"
Those women saw that Duoduo had been knocked to the ground by Concubine Ming, and they knew that she had been poisoned. Youdao wanted to take advantage of your illness to kill you. If they don't do it now, they will have no chance in the future!
All of a sudden, the concubines rushed forward, punching and kicking Duoduo. Duoduo stared at her eyes, but her limbs were no longer in control, and she could only let the group of bitches trample on her body.
"Don't hit me, I beg you, don't hit me anymore...Kowtow to you, don't hit my sister anymore, please..."
Jin Lian hugged her master tightly and protected her head.
"Damn girl, get out of my way!" Concubine Yan angrily walked to the stove and picked up a large spatula.
Seeing this, the old palace maid quickly winked at the chefs, and then ran out of the imperial kitchen door with a look.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Yan, please be merciful, or someone will die!" The chefs are all men, so naturally they are much stronger than Concubine Yan. The two chefs grabbed the spatula in Concubine Yan's hand to prevent her from committing murder.
.
"Bold, you two bitches, how dare you be so scornful of me!"
"My dear Concubine Yan, you really can't do it. If the emperor blames this shovel, no one will be able to bear it."
"Huh, you don't need to worry about what I do. Today she was the one who hit someone first. Is it still reasonable? I count to three. If you don't let go, I will kill you!"
The two chefs had no choice but to let go of their hands... "Bang!" With a sound, Concubine Yan hit the pot with a spatula!
It wasn't Duoduo who was hit, but Jinlian's head. Duoduo watched the bright red blood slowly flowing down from Jinlian's head, dyeing her clothes red. Jinlian still hugged her tightly and protected her.
head.
And she was so numb that she couldn't even speak... "You're so brave, you broke into the royal study without permission, are you seeking death?" Two guards blocked an old palace maid from the door.
"I...I'm from the imperial kitchen, and I'm here to see the emperor!"
"The Emperor has no time, and he won't meet people like you. Just go back to where you came from, so that I don't have to chase you away!"
"Go away, you two brats, if this delays things, can you afford it?"
The old palace maid suddenly knelt on the ground and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, help me, Your Majesty, Concubine Qian is dying, please save her!"
With a creaking sound, the door to the imperial study room suddenly opened, and Nangong Ming came out with an anxious look on his face: "What did you just say? Concubine Qian? What happened to her?"
"Your Majesty, Concubine Yan is leading a group of people to beat her. They sent people to secretly add medicine to the soup. Now only you, Your Majesty, can save her!"
When Nangong Ming heard what the old palace maid said, he suddenly threw away the book in his hand and ran towards the imperial kitchen. The guards had no choice but to run after him, but the master's legs were moving too fast.
Quickly, the guards were pulled far apart.
"Bitch, aren't you very proud of your prestige? Ah? Weren't you very impressive when you beat me in Zhaoyang Palace? What's wrong? You can't be prestigious now? Humph, a woman of unknown origin dares to
Setting up camp in my harem of the Great Southern Dynasty, I think you are impatient! Sisters, whoever is still not relieved, come and fight!"
Concubine Yan was actually more afraid of Duo Duo. The reason why she was so arrogant was just to cover up her inner fear.
Concubine Yan now has two ways to go, and both of them have become dead ends.
If she kills Qian Duoduo, the emperor will naturally not forgive her lightly. If she doesn't kill Qian Duoduo, according to the woman's character, sooner or later the pain she suffered today will be doubled to her body, which is worse than
Death is even more terrible.
"Sisters, whoever dares to kill her, I will reward you with five thousand taels of gold!"
"Ah? Kill her? No, I've taught you a lesson today. I think that's it. If we kill her, we will definitely die..." None of the concubines dared to be ruthless.
"What are you afraid of? What if the emperor takes the blame and I bear the responsibility alone? Who dares?" Concubine Yan was going crazy because she felt that she had no way out.
Now it seems that he can still rule the harem with majesty, but if he doesn't get rid of the woman in front of him today, she will definitely be the one who will suffer in the future!
"Bear it? How can you bear it?" Nangong Ming arrived in time and strode in.
"Your Majesty, my sister has been poisoned..." Jin Lian said with tears in her eyes: "Your Majesty, you must save my sister. She was harmed by these women."
"Kneel down!"
Nangong Ming roared angrily, frightening Concubine Yan and all the concubines to kneel down.
"Your Majesty, although we did something wrong in what happened today, it was Concubine Qian who struck first and knocked out Concubine Ming's teeth. That's why we were so angry that we thought of teaching Concubine Qian a lesson.
.”
"What about the poisoning? Is it possible that this was just a moment of anger?"
"Your Majesty... I know that I was wrong. Please show mercy to me, Your Majesty."
"Please have mercy, Your Majesty!" So the concubines all knelt down and worshiped at this time. Their faces were as pale as death. They didn't know what the Emperor was going to do with them.
"My dear, what do you think? My dear, you can't sleep. Don't close your eyes. I will take you to the Imperial Hospital right now!"
Nangong Ming picked up Duoduo and ran out of the door, saying harsh words: "If anything happens to Concubine Qian, I will definitely bury you with her! Also, if I didn't come to let you
Get up, if any of you gets up, I will never forgive you!"
Seeing Nangong Ming disappear at the door, some of the concubines began to cry in fright, while others were stunned and at a loss.
Seeing the emperor holding Qian Duoduo and running as fast as possible to the imperial hospital, Concubine Yan was so angry that her eyes widened, and she gritted her teeth and said: "Hunjun, sooner or later, because of that vixen, the Nangong family's hundreds of years of foundation will be ruined!
"
"Sister, you...didn't you say that bitch Concubine Qian made an unforgivable mistake? Then why is the emperor still so nervous about her? It's all your fault. We made us go against Concubine Qian, and we are doomed from now on!"
"Shut up, everyone!" Concubine Yan turned her head and glared at the concubines kneeling on the ground and said, "Are you so afraid of that Concubine Qian? Aren't you afraid of me? I can let you die right now, do you believe it or not?"
Those concubines who spoke did not dare to speak out anymore. The Situ family has assisted the Nangong clan for generations, and has been granted the title of marquis and prime minister. They are powerful and powerful. Even if Concubine Yan is no longer favored, the emperor will not dare to do anything to her casually. If she wants any of the concubines to die,
