Nanny Qin frowned slightly. On such a hot day, the Queen Mother was basked in the sun again. How could she bring up something that was still rolling?
How can the Queen Mother eat this!
The palace has its own rules about soups, teas, drinks and meals. The tea served to the master should not be too hot or too cold. It must be left to a temperature that the master is used to drinking before it is served. The same goes for soups and meals.
.
Nanny Qin thought to herself that it was Wu Meiren’s first time making arrangements, so it was understandable that she would make mistakes while busy.
She was about to let someone take it down, dry it again, and then bring it up again, but suddenly she noticed something was wrong in the Queen Mother's eyes.
The Queen Mother sat at the table and swallowed subconsciously. These simple side dishes looked very delicious.
Especially the rolling meat porridge whetted her appetite.
Lihua served a small bowl for the Empress Dowager and said in a loud voice: "Madam, this is the freshest and tenderest mustard greens harvested from the Yufeng Garden. Cut them into shreds and cook them in the porridge until they are soft.
When the time comes..."
The casserole is heated evenly, and the porridge is rich in flavor, soft and easy to digest. It is most suitable for people with weak stomachs.
At the same time, mustard benefits the temperature, strengthens the stomach and digestion, detoxifies and reduces swelling, improves eyesight and relieves the diaphragm. It has the effect of preventing and treating constipation. It is a perfect match for cooking meat porridge.
After the Queen Mother exercised, she lost too much water. When the weather was hot, what she longed for most was something containing moisture, not big fish, big meat, meat and fishy meat.
Moreover, the rolling hot porridge is the same as the sizzling barbecue. The color, the wafting aroma and the rolling visual impact can easily arouse people's appetite.
Coupled with Lihua's arrangements, the temperature in the palace was obviously much cooler than before, and the Queen Mother felt cooler both physically and mentally.
At this time, how can you not be attracted by the hot porridge?
In the afternoon, Wu Dingbang walked out of Cangchen Hall feeling dizzy.
During this summons, he not only saw a doctor and drank medicine, he was even given a royal meal for lunch.
Not only that, he left empty-handed and returned with a full load.
Look at the team of young eunuchs behind him, they are all carrying things for him.
These little eunuchs brought him twenty-nine bags of medicine, and those little eunuchs brought him precious tonics for the whole family.
There are also a few young eunuchs who propose extra rewards, and everyone in the Wu family has a share.
Wu Dingbang always felt that it was so unreal. Entering the palace was like visiting a relative, meeting the emperor and chatting about family affairs, and then being released without any trouble and being given many things.
The most important thing is that he got news about his little daughter.
The emperor said that his little daughter had made meritorious deeds and was living a good life.
Wu Dingbang finally understood that his previous guesses were wrong, and the emperor was not looking for trouble with him.
He was summoned this time because of his little daughter's glory.
Wu Dingbang felt at ease and at the same time very happy.
This news was very precious. Although he didn't know what merit his little daughter had made, as long as she was good, he would be satisfied.
"Master Wu, Master Wu?"
A voice rang out from beside him, and Wu Dingbang came to his senses and saw Zhang Defa, the enthusiastic general manager, waving his hand in front of him.
Seeing him come to his senses, Zhang Defa smiled broadly and said, "Master Wu, we have arrived at the palace gate. Please forgive me for not being able to send him away far away."
Wu Dingbang quickly raised his hands and thanked him: "Thank you so much, Eunuch Zhang."
Zhang Defa lifted the fly whisk and returned the greeting: "Master Wu is a meritorious minister, so there is no need to be polite to our family. I don't know where your carriage is. Let these boys deliver the things. Otherwise, our family will arrange for someone to deliver them to you."
Let’s go to Wufu?”
Wu Dingbang hurriedly declined. He had declined just now. He never liked to be ostentatious, so it would be too ostentatious to send it to the palace.
In the past few days, the palace has sent people to the Wu Mansion every day to express condolences, which has made him a big limelight, which is really not good.
Before going to court today, a colleague asked him what was going on.
Wu Dingbang looked sad and shook his head and said he didn't know.
When he went to court, his colleagues noticed that the emperor had a very gentle attitude toward Wu Dingbang, and they all expressed sympathy. When he went to court, Wu Dingbang was indeed called away.
Two
They exchanged a few words and said goodbye.
Wu Dingbang was eager to return home and couldn't wait to return to Wu Mansion to tell the Wu family about Lihua's news so that they could feel at ease.
Zhang Defa watched the people leave, then put away his smile and left with a sad look on his face, showing an awkward walking posture. ap.
He was full of bitterness, knowing that the emperor did not like to see him these days.
When the emperor saw him last night, he raised his eyebrows and asked, "Have your injuries healed?"
Zhang Defa thought that the emperor cared about him, and said excitedly that he was thick-skinned and not in trouble at all. Thank you Long Live Lord for caring about him.
The emperor nodded in understanding: "Then I will reward you with five more sticks. If someone comes, drag him out and beat him."
So Zhang Defa was beaten again.
But he asked for it all on his own, and he couldn't blame anyone. Just now the emperor asked someone to send Wu Dingbang back, and he rushed to do it.
The emperor glanced at him and did not stop him, which made him sigh in relief. This meant that Long Live the Lord was willing to let him atone for his sins.
The emperor summoned Wu Dingbang's various strange actions. Wu Dingbang didn't think about it thoroughly, but Zhang Defa did.
That is giving face to Wu Meiren and showing great importance to Wu Meiren.
After Zhang Defa saw this clearly, he regretted even more why he had betrayed Lihua's palace seal in the first place and offended others in many ways.
He has been thinking about how to save it.
But the emperor never took him to Tingliyuan, and kept a low profile.
Zhang Defa couldn't find a way to go to Tingli Courtyard, and he didn't dare to go directly for fear of attracting attention and ruining the emperor's good deeds.
He carries the imperial seal from Cangchen Palace every day, hoping to find an opportunity to give it to Lihua in person, but unfortunately he can't find the opportunity.
Zhang Defa secretly tried his best again and asked Shang Gong Bureau to repair Tingli Courtyard.
The emperor won't say it, but slaves can't be so blind. It will be too late by the time the emperor gets angry.
Unexpectedly, he had good intentions, but was rejected by the people in Tingliyuan.
The people from the Shang Palace Bureau came back and said, "I didn't see Wu Meiren, but the little maid next to her came out to see me."
The little palace maid put her hands on her hips and said, "Why don't you come early? We have already repaired the guest rooms in the wing of the side hall, so there is no need."
The people from the Shanggong Bureau apologized and said that they had been too busy a while ago. They asked if they wanted to transplant flowers, plants and trees in the courtyard. They would not delay and would do it right away.
The little palace maid looked disbelieving, but said, "You have to ask our master about this matter. If my father-in-law feels uneasy about neglecting his duty, he can convert the repair money into silver for us."
The people in Shang Gong Bureau had no choice but to come back.
As soon as Zhang Defa heard this, he knew that this little palace maid was Zhichun, a little palace lady who spoke so bluntly that she could make people angry but couldn't get anything to do with it.
He stamped his foot and felt pain in his buttocks. He asked anxiously: "Idiot, why don't you give her your wages?"
Although the little palace maid said that to ward off the talent, the Shang Gong Bureau must treat the person's angry words as a serious matter and deal with it seriously, and the matter will be settled.
Besides, people may not accept it, but they will be relieved because of Shang Gongju’s good attitude, and then the following things will be easier to handle.
