Chapter 14 Serving the Emperor Yongzheng (2)

Her face is no longer as sallow as it was in Kunning Palace, but is much whiter. Because of this, a pair of inky black eyes are more and more prominent. The white mountains and black waters are as clear as an ink painting, and there is infinite space in the blank space.

The meaning actually made him want to explore it.

Yin stretched out his hand and gently touched Ji Ling's face, and saw that little Chang Zai's face turned red little by little, and finally it reached the roots of his ears.

He leaned over and offered some comfort, a warmth rarely seen in the coldness of an emperor: "I have been in the palace for a year, but I have neglected you."

The bright yellow color in Ji Ling's eyes finally fell overwhelmingly, and finally filled his eyes, and he felt like he was being embraced by a broad shoulder.

At first she felt her heart pounding in her chest, and then it was dark. She couldn't tell whether it was bright yellow or the light of candles. She just felt that everything was blurred. Finally, in the chaotic pain, she knew: many trajectories began.

Change, things were not as simple as she thought, choosing a concubine as a supporter, and then living behind closed doors, eating, drinking and having fun.

If you become a woman of Yongzheng, you may not be able to go back in time.

It's because she thought too simply.

The little eunuch on night duty was a little surprised when he heard what was going on inside. He looked at each other again, with sympathy in his eyes: It's been a long time since I've seen Lord Long Live in such a high mood. Poor Na Ji often has such a thin and pale face.

, but I don’t know if I can bear it.

When Ji Ling was sent back, he was limp and almost falling apart.

Qixi stretched her neck and stood guard at the gate of Jingyang Palace. Seeing Qixi, Ji Ling felt her heart drop. She grinned and smiled at Qixi like a child: "Qixi!".

Qixi cried, and she didn't know whether it was because she was heartbroken to see Chang Zai become like this, or because Chang Zai stayed up until the clouds opened and saw the moonlight, and she cried with joy.

The rewarded decoction came quickly. It was delivered personally by the eunuch in charge of the ceremony room. This analgesic decoction was prepared for the concubines who were sleeping in bed for the first time. It contained numbing herbs and could relieve the pain.

Originally, the women in the harem were provided with decoctions and medicines after their first visit to bed, but this time it was Yin himself who spoke up and specifically asked the guest room not to forget to deliver them. The eunuch in charge did not dare to neglect at all, and knelt down as soon as he entered the door.

A round face smiled like a flower: "Congratulations to Chang Zai! Congratulations to Ji Chang Zai! This is the decoction that the emperor personally entrusted to Chang Zai. Chang Zai is such a great favor!".

Ji Ling took twenty taels of silver from the mysterious space. Apart from giving it to Qixi, she only had ten taels left with her. She put it on the bedside. She glanced at Qixi and motioned to Qixi to get it.

Qixi felt a little distressed, but knew that this money could not be saved. There were many concubines in the palace, and every one of them gritted their teeth and dug out the money from the monthly money, and gave it to the father-in-law, just hoping that they would be able to use it.

He moved his green-headed sign forward and pushed it when the emperor was hesitant.

Mr. Chen from the Jingsi Room looked at his purse and pushed it with both hands: "I don't dare, I don't dare!".

Ji Ling smiled politely and said, "Thank you, my father-in-law, in order to deliver the soup and medicine to me, he went there himself. The food here is simple, and there is nothing I can offer to entertain Eunuch Chen. This... just treat him as if I were treating him to a bowl of good tea."

, please don’t be polite, father-in-law.”

Eunuch Chen still didn't answer.

If Yin hadn't personally ordered someone to deliver soup and medicine to Ji Changzai after last night, he would never have been polite at this time and just accepted the red envelope from Changzai.

Who would think that there is too much money?

But this money cannot be collected.

Yin could personally order the delivery of medicine. Based on this alone, he knew that the little Chang Zai in front of him would not be Chang Zai forever.

When Ji Ling saw that he refused to accept it, she did not force him. So Eunuch Chen said some more flattering words and left with a smile on his face.

Qixi hurried to Changchun Palace to get breakfast. When she came back, she was followed by a young eunuch who said "Sister Qixi" to Ji Ling. She looked familiar.

Without saying a word, the little eunuch helped Qixi carry the lunch box in. Then he bent down in front of Ji Ling, knelt down, and kowtowed three times: "My servant Xie Ji Chang is so kind to the mouse for saving his life."

!”

Ji Ling suddenly realized, no wonder he looked familiar, this little eunuch was Little Yoko.

When Hai promised to be a nobleman, the eunuch Xiao Yoko beside him was the eunuch who had a good relationship with the palace maid Mouse.

While Ji Ling asked Qixi to open the lunch box, he heard Little Yoko's aunt growl. Knowing that he was hungry, he pointed to a piece of cake and said to Qixi: "Little Yoko is hungry, give him a piece."

Ji Ling then said slowly: "That day I saw that you were very protective of the mice. Even if Haigui became so angry, you didn't turn your back on him. I knew you were a good boy with kindness and righteousness."

Qixi has already handed the hot cake to little Yoko's hand.

Little Yoko took the cake, knelt on the ground, moved his lips a few times, and finally sobbed and cried: "This slave entered the palace at the age of nine, and has been in the palace for seven years this year. No master has ever returned to the palace by himself.

If you don’t have a meal, you’ll give me cakes first!”

Ji Ling felt flustered by his crying. This was the first time that she had been so grateful to someone.

Bixue said loudly: "Okay, okay, Chang Zai just went to bed, it's such a big happy event, why are you crying here?".

Xiao Yoko wiped away her tears with her sleeves, smiled through her tears, and said: "I know that I stayed with you last night, and your kindness is always rewarded. When I came today, I saw Sister Qixi carrying a lunch box on the street.

Then I helped the leader, and the second came to congratulate Chang Zai."

Ji Ling nodded, changed his posture, and said: "Are you still going to follow Hai and agree?".

Little Yoko shook his head and said: "This slave was assigned to be a cleaning eunuch by the eunuch in charge."

After Xiao Yoko thanked her and left, Qixi and Bixue began to prepare meals.

The food was very exquisite, better than what I had paid for with money before. Although it was morning, Ji Ling was so hungry that he specifically asked to bring more hot dishes instead of porridge and side dishes.

So the lunch box contained bird's nest stewed with rock sugar, small steamed buns rolled with bamboo joints, cabbage with chicken wings and mushrooms, shredded pheasant with pickled cabbage, a box of silver sunflowers and side dishes, stir-fried chicken shreds and stewed kelp shreds in a hot pot, especially the last hot pot dish.

It was big and heavy. No wonder Xiaoyangzi had to help Qixi lift it back. As a girl, she really couldn’t lift it!

Hot pot is actually hot pot. In the Qing palace, hot pot was eaten at least three out of twelve months out of the year.

The shredded chicken is tender and smooth. It is filled with chili oil, Sichuan peppercorns, and vine peppers. It is fresh and numb. The kelp shreds are cut into thin strips. After they are taken out, they are gently rolled on the plate. The whole body is covered.

Red chili noodles.

Cabbage with chicken wings and belly mushrooms also tastes good, just a little bland, but because Ji Ling had just gone to bed and couldn't eat something so spicy, Qixi specially brought this dish back.

The bird's nest stewed with rock sugar is considered an after-dinner dessert. It is stewed until it is silky and glutinous, and the rock sugar is added just right. It is not overly sweet, nor is it bland and tasteless.
