The clear voice of the woman in the hall continued.
Cai Chong walked over slowly.
"Your Majesty, tea." He bowed and said, holding two cups of tea in his hand.
The emperor glanced at it, took the cup and drank it slowly without saying a word.
Cai Zhong felt that this was the most uneasy choice he had ever made, and he sent the tray in his hand to Qi Yue.
Qi Yue's mouth was already dry from talking, so she took it over casually.
"Thank you." She said casually and habitually, putting down a needle with one hand. "Sewing is like this. It relies on the cooperation of scissors and tweezers. It is different from making clothes."
The emperor clutched the tea cup and made a sound.
"It's amazing how you came up with all this," he said with a smile.
Cai Zhong, who was still bowing, slowly straightened up and stepped back, breathing a sigh of relief.
Qi Yue drank the last sip.
"It is accumulated through generations of experience." She said, pointing her finger and smiling, "Human potential is unlimited."
The emperor looked at her and smiled slightly.
Qi Yue put the things in front of her into the box.
A young eunuch came in from outside and whispered a few words beside Cai Zhong. Cai Zhong nodded and walked towards His Majesty.
The little eunuch couldn't help but stare wide-eyed, a little shocked, as if he didn't expect Cai Zhong to do this.
"Your Majesty, I would like to ask from the imperial kitchen if you would like to pass on the food." Cai Zhong took a few steps closer and asked with a smile.
It's already noon?
Qi Yue was busy looking at the sky outside. The emperor seemed a little surprised and glanced at the hourglass next to him.
"A civilian woman..." The host was about to have dinner, so Qi Yue hurriedly leaned over to say goodbye.
The emperor had already spoken first.
"Ms. Qi has tasted my tea, why not try the royal meal." He said with a smile.
The little eunuch on the side suddenly realized, looking at Cai Zhong with an expression of immense admiration.
No wonder he can be the general manager...
"Your Majesty, the civilian women should go back." Qi Yue hesitated and said.
As soon as these words came out, even the air in the room seemed to be still.
Needless to say, the little eunuchs, Cai Zhong's expression was also distorted.
Unexpectedly, someone refused the emperor's banquet...
Royal meal...
All the civil and military ministers of this dynasty had eaten countless of them.
No, the key is that he rejected the emperor!
Cai Zhong bets that this woman doesn't know what she is talking about.
The emperor seemed a little surprised, but his expression did not change and he still looked at her with a smile.
"Mrs. Chen is ill, and her adoptive father prescribed some medicated food for her to take for three days. She doesn't take herself seriously, and the woman won't eat if she doesn't look at her." Qi Yue really didn't feel anything and said seriously.
I'm dying..
These words rang in the emperor's ears, and his expression became slightly condensed.
He hummed.
"Mrs. Qi doesn't feel comfortable eating with me, does she?" he said suddenly.
Qi Yue waved her hands hurriedly.
"No, no, your Majesty is such a good person. At first, the women felt uncomfortable, but now they don't feel at all anymore," she said.
The emperor smiled.
"Am I such a good person?" he said, "That's because you haven't seen my bad qualities yet."
"Then I still haven't seen His Majesty's good deeds." Qi Yue said again.
This was a bit convoluted. Cai Chong was stunned for a moment, thinking in his heart that the emperor had already laughed.
"Your Majesty." Qi Yue was about to bow and leave, but almost forgot to ask for instructions on something important, so he spoke again in a hurry.
The emperor looked at her.
"What, you regretted it again?" he asked with a smile.
The emperor spoke really casually.
"Your Majesty, you have seen the samples just now. After the first batch of supplies is prepared, the civilian woman will personally send them to the border." Qi Yue said.
The emperor hummed.
Qi Yue breathed a sigh of relief, kowtowed again, stood up and stepped back.
"Wait a minute, what did you say?" the emperor asked suddenly.
Didn't you hear it just now? Are you distracted?
Qi Yue hurriedly repeated what he just said.
"You want to go?" The emperor tilted his head slightly and looked at her and asked.
"Yes, it was designed by a civilian woman. It's better to go there in person, lest they don't know how to use it." Qi Yue said.
The emperor smiled lightly.
"I know how to use it, why don't they know how to use it?" he said.
ah?
Qi Yue was stunned again.
What's the meaning?
The emperor watched her stand up.
"You're not allowed to go." He said, leaving these words behind, turned around and walked out.
Not allowed to go?
Qi Yue came back to her senses.
"Your Majesty..." she shouted hurriedly.
The emperor ignored him and Shi Ran had already walked to the door.
Qi Yue wanted to chase, but Cai Chong hurriedly stopped him.
"Oh, Mrs. Qi, I don't dare." He said with some advice.
"But..." Qi Yue wanted to say something else, but Cai Zhong didn't give her a chance and glared at a young eunuch.
"Hurry up and carry something for Mrs. Qi," he scolded.
Immediately, several young eunuchs rushed forward, and finally one of them was lucky enough to snatch the box from Qi Yue's hand.
Qi Yue had no choice but to leave.
After walking out of the palace gate, Qi Yue let out a sigh of relief when she saw Ah Ru Ah Hao happily accepting the gift.
"Is it possible that these won't work?" A'ru asked, looking a little worried at her face.
"No, Your Majesty is very happy." Qi Yue said, pouting slightly.
"Then..." Ah Hao asked puzzledly.
"Your Majesty won't let me go," Qi Yue said after getting into the car.
Ah Ru and Ah Hao looked at each other.
"Why?" they asked in unison.
"I don't know." Qi Yue said with a snort. Thinking of not being able to see Chang Yuncheng, she just felt that her face couldn't open up no matter how hard she tried, it just kept falling down.
"It's okay, it's okay. It was too hasty this time. We just came back from there again. It's okay to take a break and wait until the second half of the year to go again. Those medical supplies are not only sent once," Aru comforted.
That's all I can think about. Yes, the pharmaceutical factory has just started and it really needs manpower. Hu San and Liu Pucheng alone may not be able to handle it.
"Then I definitely want the second batch, even if I, the Emperor, stop me." Qi Yue said, and then cheered up.
When she got home and had dinner with Chen, Chen asked her carefully what she had said when she met the emperor. Qi Yue picked it up and told it to her. Chen was very happy to hear it and her whole body became mentally better.
"Your Majesty even gave me royal food." Qi Yue said with a smile, "But I didn't dare to eat it."
Cai Qing on the side also looked surprised, but Chen looked calm, as if this was something he had expected.
"It's okay if you don't eat this time." She said with a smile.
Someone like an emperor...
This is actually better.
Qi Yue nodded.
Although the two have different meanings.
Seeing Qi Yue leave, Mrs. Chen leaned on the pillow tiredly, unable to even open her eyes.
"Madam." Cai Qing couldn't help but choke.
"Why cry?" Mrs. Chen closed her eyes and said softly, with a smile on her lips, "How good it is now."
Cai Qing nodded and choked with sobs.
The room fell into silence.
When Qi Yue left the palace, Mr. Deqing and his wife had also finished speaking.
The old man of the Chen family looked silent for a moment.
"I'm going to see Snow Lady." He said.
Mrs. Deqinggong sighed.
"She wouldn't have said it if she didn't want to," she said.
"If she really wants to destroy our Chen family, we will have no descendants and no descendants." The eldest son of the Chen family said calmly.
"Tell her carefully that she is not in good health," Mrs. Deqinggong said again.
The old man of the Chen family smiled bitterly and saluted Mrs. Deqing.
"What are you doing?" the old lady shook her head and said.
"Auntie, we have caused trouble for you." The uncle of the Chen family said, raised his body, and smiled bitterly, "Emperor Taizu was right at the beginning, Snow Lady is just a white-eyed wolf who is not well-bred."
Mr. Deqing's wife interrupted him cheerfully.
"Don't say that to her. She was still young at that time," she said. "She was tricked into doing some ridiculous things."
Uncle Chen shook his head.
"You look old at the age of three." He said, saluting the old lady again, "Auntie, go and have a rest, leave it alone, I will ask her what's going on."
"I don't want you to ask now." Old Mrs. Deqing said, hesitating, "It's better for me to go. She hasn't grown up with you since she was a child, so she might as well be close to me."
"It's useless for her to be close." The uncle of the Chen family said, while supporting the old lady, he personally escorted her out, "Aunt, please leave her alone. I will go see her in a few days."
The old lady had no choice but to sigh and say nothing, and was helped back to her room by the servants.
After all, he was an elderly person, and after running around for half a day and talking so much, he lost his energy. He dozed off when he lay down, and those who were waiting for the medicine couldn't wake him up.
Mrs. Rao Chen hadn't left yet, so she packed her things and came over to see the old lady like this. She didn't say to stay, so she had to go and say goodbye to Mrs. Deqing.
"Now that I'm back, I'll stay at home for a few more days," Mrs. Deqing said.
"Where can I live? My mother doesn't want to see me anyway," Rao Chen said.
Mrs. Deqing was busy smiling and clapping her hands.
"Sister, don't say that. Mother talks about you every day, saying that if you marry far away, she will raise you in vain." She laughed.
"It's right to talk about Snow Lady," Rao Chen said sourly.
Although Mrs. Deqing didn't know what happened, she also knew that it was related to Xue Niang.
"Sister, the closer you are, the more casual you are." She said, "Don't you know it yourself?"
Her family also has an orphan girl who is fostered by her brother-in-law. Compared with her own children, they can't beat each other and treat each other well, but there is always a lack of closeness in the bones, and they are more like treating each other as guests.
Mrs. Rao Chen immediately came back to her senses with a smile on her face.
"I came here in a hurry. There are a lot of things to sort out at home. I'll come back in a few days." She said with a smile.
The two were chatting and laughing. As soon as they reached the hall, they saw two maids walking in quickly.
"Madam, Madam Dingxihou is here." they said, holding a post in their hands.
Madam Dingxihou?
Mrs. Deqing and Mrs. Rao Chen looked at each other in surprise.
"Well done!" Rao Chen raised her eyebrows and said without any smile at all.
Before he finished speaking, he saw Ms. Xie striding over, surrounded by several servants.
When she saw the two people in the hall, she was slightly startled. They had not interacted with each other for many years, but they had met once when Chen was getting married. She couldn't recognize who was who for a while.
"You still dare to come?" Mrs. Rao Chen walked over in a few steps and asked angrily.
"Second sister, if you have something to say, please speak up." Mrs. Deqing hurriedly advised her, while giving a slight salute, "Thank you, Madam."
With this conversation, Mr. Xie could tell who was who.
She looked Rao Chen up and down.
"Okay, as expected, the sisters are kissing each other, and now they are together." Mrs. Xie sneered, stepped over the threshold, looked at Mrs. Rao Chen and said, "Have you sisters figured out how to abuse me again?"
