Chapter 1296 Master, I think I will have many more wives in the future

What bad intentions could Maomao have? She just wanted some medicinal herbs from the palace warehouse, especially since the envoys from the Western Regions seemed to have recently sent some medicinal herbs that were poisonous but not very strong.

The third cabinet, the fifth layer.

The first floor of the seventh cabinet.

"Hehe!" As the cat ran, the corners of its mouth curled up and its saliva flowed down unconsciously.

but

It wasn't long before I ran.

The cat sniffed and immediately looked towards the corner ahead.

I saw Su Changan standing there holding Wu Daming.

Su Changan looked helpless.

But Maomao acted as if nothing had happened, holding the booklet in his hand, thinking that his escape was just an illusion!

Because it is impossible to bargain with His Majesty, if you want to get more medicinal materials, you have to start with Su Changan!

Holding the manual in one hand, Maomao raised his other hand and pointed five fingers. His cat ears stood up, revealing a serious expression: "This number!"

Su Changan frowned, took a step forward, and said, "Don't go too far. Aunt Sun has taught you a lesson."

Maomao looked at Su Changan solemnly and picked up the booklet in his hand: "This matter is very serious. Just the words "many mistresses" and "master's wives" will give you an idea of ​​its significance! If it's less than that, forget it!"

Su Changan looked at Maomao. It was obvious that this girl had him in her arms!

Then he held up four fingers: "That's the maximum!"

Then

Maomao immediately shook his ears and gave Su Changan a thumbs-up: "Deal!"

"Hmm?" Su Changan looked at the happy cat, "Don't want to talk about it anymore?"

Maomao nodded: "Well, four is enough. My motto is to quit while I'm ahead!"

Maomao happily put the booklet away. I thought he would directly say two types, but he unexpectedly said four types. Great!

Su Changan curled his lips, feeling like he had been cheated.

Then he looked at the cat and said, "How about two? Aunt Sun has told me many times that she's too good to you."

The cat stopped laughing all of a sudden and stared at Su Changan with an expressionless face.

He silently took out the booklet and muttered, "Your Majesty is the Master's Wife." He didn't deny it. He also looked very happy. It seemed that if he had the chance, he really wanted Your Majesty to be the Master's Wife, and then he would find another one.

Su Changan interrupted: "Four."

Maomao looked up politely, and his expression changed very quickly. In that instant, his expression suddenly turned into a look of joy, and the corners of his mouth even turned up.

Su Changan sighed and looked down at Wu Daming.

Wu Daming blinked and looked at his master and sister Maomao in confusion.

don't know!

Just now, Sister Cat suddenly ran away.

Then the master suddenly grabbed her and came over.

Then we just had a serious negotiation

So, it became like this.

but.

Wu Daming looked at his master with a doting expression and helplessly looked at Sister Cat who was laughing strangely.

Wu Daming blinked his eyes. Master must have been blackmailed by Sister Maomao.

It's just like Sister Juanzi is blackmailing me.

Can.

Why isn’t Master angry?

Thinking of this, Wu Daming watched his master take out a handkerchief to wipe Sister Maomao's saliva.

Queen

Is it okay to be blackmailed like this?

Bang!

But at this moment, a voice suddenly came from the other side of the wall.

Not to mention Wu Daming, even Su Changan and Maomao were stunned and looked in the direction of the sound.

"That's the imperial kitchen over there, right?" Su Changan said, looking at the wall.

Maomao wiped his saliva with a handkerchief and nodded: "Yeah."

…

The imperial kitchen is very large, with four large courtyards connected to each other.

At the moment, the front yard was where not only the palace servants from the imperial kitchen but also some officials from the Imperial Food Bureau had gathered.

Many eunuchs and palace maids gathered around.

In the middle, a female official from the Imperial Food Bureau and two eunuchs looked at the overturned cart and the ice cubes that had broken into several large pieces on the ground with pale faces.

And on the ground, a little palace maid was looking at the ice with horror on her face.

"This is the ice that Miss Xuanxia and the others requested. The Empress requested it! She said it's for His Majesty to cool down from the summer heat." The female official murmured, looking at the palace maid on the ground: "What on earth are you thinking!"

The two eunuchs also looked at the little palace maid on the ground with anger.

One of them spoke up, "It's too late to send another piece from the ice room now. Miss Xuanxia said the Queen wanted it today. You want to die, why are you dragging us into this?"

The little palace maid shook her head, her eyes moist, and she shook her head in panic: "I'm not, I didn't, I just received an order saying that many adults came to Lingqi Pavilion, and Sun Shanggong asked the imperial kitchen to prepare the food, so I... I'm sorry, I..."

The more she spoke, the more the little palace maid trembled.

Especially seeing the angry expression of the female official.

As the people around watched this scene, although their faces were full of sympathy, no one stood up to speak.

Because all the ice in this season is transported from the ice room in the mountains outside the palace, and only there can it be preserved in such hot weather.

It can be said to be very expensive.

And this has to be sent to Lingqi Pavilion, the Queen wants it.

This crime is not something a palace maid can bear.

And if they really want to blame someone, not only the palace maid, but these three people will also be punished.

The surrounding eunuchs and palace servants looked at this scene with sympathy.

"I'm sorry, I..." The little palace maid lowered her head. She looked no more than fifteen or sixteen years old. Her eyes were filled with tears and she clutched her clothes tightly.

The female official immediately scolded, "Is an apology enough for this? And we wanted a whole piece. Now it's broken into pieces, not to mention covered in dirt. Not only would it be unacceptable to present it to Her Majesty, even Miss Xuanxia and the others wouldn't be able to see it. You know, in this season of ice, even if you sold yourself, you might not be able to buy a piece!"

While scolding like this, the female official also had an anxious look on her face. After all, she would also be punished. She had passed the exam with great difficulty!

The little palace maid bit her lower lip and dared not speak. Her lips trembled and she felt extremely helpless.

The two eunuchs also stood aside, at a loss.

The female official immediately looked at a eunuch and said, "Hurry up and bring another one over, this palace maid."

But just when the lady official said this.

A person in red suddenly appeared next to the ice. "It can be used again if you rinse it with water. There's no need to waste time on it."

Everyone was stunned and immediately looked down.

The woman in red looked at the helpless little palace maid lying on the ground and gently wiped her tears: "Don't cry, it's okay."

The little palace maid looked helplessly in front of her, at the woman with a strand of black hair hanging down in front of her.

"Greetings to Her Majesty the Queen!"

The female officials or other people who saw Su Changan clearly immediately saluted at this time.

Some of these people have never seen the Queen, but quite a few of them are elderly and definitely know Su Changan.

Those who had never seen her were still wondering who this angel-like woman was. When they heard the people around them saluting, they hurriedly followed suit.

Empress

This is the Queen!

The little palace maid immediately knelt down.

But Su Changan stopped him: "No need to greet each other, everyone, stand up."

After hearing this, everyone expressed their gratitude and stood up.

The little palace maid looked at the extremely beautiful Empress in front of her with both respect and fear. Although she had only been in the palace for a short time, she had seen the Empress before, after all, she was always by the side of Palace Lady Sun.

She went to the palace voluntarily, originally just wanting to give it a try, but she didn't expect to be selected into the palace. Her family was so happy.

Because the monthly allowance from the palace was very generous, it was enough for my younger brothers and sisters to study, for my mother's medical treatment, and for me to have the opportunity to take the examination to become a female official.

but.

She didn't expect that she would get into such a big trouble less than half a month after coming here.

Su Changan looked at the helpless and frightened little maid, smiled and reached out to rub her head: "Don't be afraid, it's no big deal, and I just said it, it can be used. Don't cry, your makeup is all ruined."

After saying this, he smiled and wiped the tears from the little palace maid.

The little maid looked at the gentle Empress in astonishment. What did she mean? "I'm fine? The Empress doesn't blame me?"

Su Changan turned around and looked at the female official.

The female official immediately bowed again and said, "Your Majesty, I have failed to do my job well. Please forgive me."

Su Changan said, "It's just a piece of ice. What's the crime? Besides, I'll just break it up and use it. As for the dirt on it, just rinse it off with water. You all did nothing wrong. There's no need to act like you've done something really bad."

As he spoke, Su Changan reached out and was about to rewrap the ice. After all, it would melt a lot if it was exposed to the sun like this.

Ice is precious.

Su Changan knew this.

Seeing the empress take action, the two eunuchs immediately took action first.

Su Changan smiled and said, "Put it in the ice cellar under the imperial kitchen for now. His Majesty is discussing state affairs in Lingqi Pavilion."

At this point, Su Changan looked at the young palace maid and said, "I just heard that Concubine Sun asked you to tell the imperial kitchen to prepare meals for the ministers?"

The young palace maid was a little slow to react.

Su Changan smiled lightly when he saw this, then looked at the female official: "Tell the imperial chefs to prepare it. The weather is hot and humid, so don't make anything that will easily cause inflammation, but don't make any cold dishes either. Some of the old ladies can't eat them."

The female official saluted immediately.

But after looking at the ice cubes that were put back into the car, he bit his lip and said, "My Lady, we..."

Su Changan said, "If I said it's okay, then it's okay. Just tell Xuanxia that it was me who said it."

The female official nodded immediately, but she also felt relieved.

But Su Changan looked at her and said, "Although I know you are anxious, next time don't use ice cubes and say that you can't afford it even if you sell the person. Dead things are not as valuable as living people."

Upon hearing this, the female official looked at the Empress and smiled at her, then bowed immediately: "I will remember your instructions."

When the palace maids around heard this, they subconsciously looked at the Queen.

The little palace maid just stood there in a daze.

But when she saw the Queen looking at her again, the little maid became nervous again.

Su Changan thought for a moment and then asked, "I remember your name is Narcissus."

The little palace maid was surprised and asked, "Your Majesty, do you know my name?"

Su Changan said, "Go back and wash up quickly, then go back to Sun Shanggong. Otherwise, she will be angry and I won't be able to help you."

After saying that, he looked at the little palace maid and smiled again, then turned and walked towards where Maomao and Wu Daming were.

But I was thinking, why not make the iced fruit cheese now? But my wife is busy now, so I wanted to give it to her first bite.

Su Changan seemed to be lost in thought.

Wu Daming blinked as he looked at Narcissus, who was filled with gratitude and excitement, and also at the looks of the palace maids around him, as well as the expression of the female official when she looked at her master.

Although I don’t quite understand

But how to say it

Thinking of how gentle Master was just now.

Seeing his master coming over, Wu Daming said, "Master, I think I will have more mistresses in the future."

Su Changan: "Hmm?"

The cat beside him said: "Hee!"
