As I walked along, I was still thinking, why can’t a palace as big as Fengwu Palace build a kitchen?
If you have a kitchen in your palace, you don’t have to go to the imperial kitchen so much trouble...
When I was thinking about it, I looked up and saw the emperor's car coming towards me.
"..." Si Ningchi, who was sitting well in the sedan chair, had to get off the sedan chair to see the ceremony. This is damn palace etiquette!
"Why is the queen here?" Zhao Zongheng never expected to meet Si Ningchi here. Since entering the palace, Si Ningchi has rarely gone out and doesn't seem to be wandering around.
"Replying to the emperor, I went to the imperial kitchen to prepare some meals." Si Ningchi raised his head slightly and said with a smile.
"..."
Zhao Zongheng's eyes slid over the pot of dishes held by Su Yongde, and he could faintly smell the fragrance. Zhao Zongheng, who was also hungry, stopped and seemed to be slightly interested in this tempting fragrance.
.
Si Ningchi looked at Zhao Zongheng who was still not leaving, and then looked at his eyes staring at the boiled meat slices.
With a bit of temptation, he said: "Your Majesty... would you like to have a meal together?"
"Okay."
Si Ningchi glared, I was just being polite, why did you really agree!
In Fengwu Palace, Si Ningchi looked at Zhao Zongheng who was sitting calmly and sighed. The boiled meat slices on the table were opened and the fragrance was so fragrant that people couldn't help but move their index fingers.
When people came forward, Si Ningchi couldn't wait to pick up the chopsticks.
He picked up a piece of meat very skillfully and naturally and stuffed it into his mouth.
A group of people standing nearby: "!!!"
Looking at the empress who was eating with gusto in horror, Zhao Zongheng was also stunned.
An emperor as big as him is sitting here, and it’s fine that the queen doesn’t serve the emperor, but eats it without waiting for the emperor to move his chopsticks first!?
This, this, this...
"Your Majesty..." Wang Chengxiang looked slightly nervous and was about to speak.
"No problem." Zhao Zongheng looked around at Si Ningchi's face, waved his hand for everyone to move away, and raised his hand to pick up the chopsticks. He hesitated while staring at the boiled meat slices on the table, imitating Si Ningchi's behavior.
Picked up a piece of meat.
The spicy aroma in his mouth stimulated his nerves, and the tender meat texture was excellent in his mouth. The meaty aroma mixed with the spicy taste whetted his appetite.
Then...
The pot of boiled meat slices was gone in a blink of an eye. It was just for her to eat alone, so she didn’t cook much.
Zhao Zongheng looked at the empty bowl and looked up at Si Ningchi.
"...No more." Si Ningchi blinked and looked at his expression and whispered: "Do it again tomorrow?"
"Okay." The corners of Zhao Zongheng's lips curled up slightly, and he wiped his mouth as if with some satisfaction. He was not a voracious person, and he could even be said to eat very casually. All meals in the palace were prepared by the dining room.
I don’t think there’s anything bad about it.
But today's meal made him feel particularly happy, and he even ate an extra bowl of rice.
On the way back to the palace, Zhao Zongheng raised his hand with half-closed eyes and patted the dragon chariot beside him. Wang Chengxiang understood and stepped forward quickly: "I am here."
"Bring the jasper glazed orb presented by King Lu to the queen." Zhao Zongheng raised his chin slightly and said it very casually.
"Yes." Wang Chengxiang's heart skipped a beat, but he responded in a low voice with a calm expression on his face.
This jasper glazed orb is a rare treasure in the world. Many people in the palace are jealous. Even the Queen Mother has hinted several times, but the emperor is completely indifferent. Now he just casually rewarded it to the queen?
Wang Chengxiang was unable to understand the Holy Will. Since the emperor ascended the throne, there have been almost no fights in the harem. Everything has been the same. No one can keep the emperor's heart or get the emperor's favor.
Who among the saints today does not say a wise and wise ruler?
With the establishment of scientific examinations and restrictions, even the palace has female officials, who do light corvee and low taxes, and are diligent in political affairs. They establish officials and businessmen to advance with the country, build water conservancy projects, expand territory, and develop agriculture and commerce, so that the people can avoid suffering.
He is such an admirable emperor, and all the ministers in the court submit to him and serve him willingly, but...
There are dozens of concubines in the Three Palaces and Sixth Courtyard, but he has never favored any of them. He is so simple-minded that he has no idea how much worry the ministers have to worry about.
He sent people to the palace in various ways, but the emperor never scolded his ministers and accepted them all. He gave them all the rewards they deserved, but he was ruthless and unloving.
The emperor was unmoved even after these ministers spoke out. But if they go to the palace to sit for a while, they must be involved in the affairs of the court. There is something to be done to appease people. You think the emperor is at fault. It seems that you are not.
Wrong, there is no omission in the government diligently.
You said he was right, but he seems to be wrong again. The emperor's heirs are withered and thin, and he is simply crumbling!
These ministers are happy and sad at the same time.
Now a reward without any prelude seems to be faintly ripples on this calm lake, making people want to speculate on the emperor’s intention.
During the long night, in his sleep, Si Ningchi saw in a trance that the empress in the comics was alive. She looked at her and smiled, her smile was open and wanton, and there was a hint of joy in her eyes. That look made Si Ningchi's hair stand on end.
.
Ahhhhh!!!
Si Ningchi woke up suddenly with a shock. Her heartbeat was beating violently and she looked at the golden curtain in front of her with fear. She always felt that the eyes of the queen in the dream seemed to be about to stab her.
"Is the Queen awake?" Suyun's voice came from outside the screen: "Early this morning, the emperor sent someone to deliver the reward."
"Hmm..." Si Ningchi rubbed his face carelessly, regained his consciousness and looked at the silk brocade quilt at hand, which was still the magnificent and luxurious palace, and sighed deeply.
Suyun heard the sound and came in. He called the palace maid inside to wait for Siningchi to get up and wash up.
Si Ningchi stared at himself in the bronze mirror in a daze. He saw the woman in the mirror with a pair of phoenix eyes that were somewhat charming and emotional. The color of her eyes was as light as glass jewelry, her face was as creamy as pearls and her red lips were lightly pursed.
What kind of beautiful and fragrant appearance is there with a slight smile and a slight raise of the eyebrows?
The beauty is luxurious and extravagant, and the beauty is touching.
Unlike the overly charming beauty, it seems to contain a sense of danger, and the beauty is so frightening.
"Empress." Suyun came forward holding a brocade box. What was placed in the brocade box was none other than the jasper glazed orb. The huge orb shone brightly, and the blue waves looked extremely beautiful. p>
"Your Majesty is really thoughtful. He gave the only one of the jewels from Tianqing Kingdom to the empress." Su Yun smiled and praised.
"It's a pity to leave such a beautiful thing in vain. It will definitely look good if you wear it with a phoenix crown." There is no little girl who doesn't love jewelry. Si Ningchi couldn't help but look at the dazzling jewelry with a look of wonder and delight.
He picked it up, looked at it, turned around and said.
"Yes, I'll let someone do it." Suyun agreed, carefully holding the orb and going down.
