Ruan Jianchun looked fierce, but after being kicked, he didn't even dare to fart and knelt down directly.

"Your servant pays homage to the Crown Prince."

Yinreng waved his hand.

"Get up."

He had no ill feelings towards Ruan Jianchun. The fact that he could be a chef in the imperial kitchen was enough to prove that this guy not only had skills, but also had a good background.

Wenrui's full official title is Minister of Management Affairs, which is the general manager and a fourth-rank official. He also has three Shangshenzheng under him who manage the daily affairs of the imperial kitchen.

The meals for Emperor Kangxi and Empress Xiaozhuang, as well as for himself, were all prepared by several chefs in the imperial kitchen, and they tasted really good.

Yinreng always had a good attitude towards hard-working craftsmen.

After describing in detail to Ruan Jianchun how to make French fries and fried chicken, Yinreng just stood there and watched him do it.

Ruan Jianchun is worthy of being a chef.

Although he is a little fat, he is not only fast in processing ingredients, but also pleasing to the eye.

An hour later, Yinreng finally got to eat the fried chicken and French fries he had been longing for. Although the marinating time was not enough, the taste was still good because the ingredients were fresh enough.

The only drawback is that there is no fat house happy water.

After Yinreng ate a chicken leg, he asked Ruan Jianchun to make milk tea.

The milk tea of ​​this era is salty. Although it tastes delicious, you will feel sick of it if you drink too much.

While eating fried chicken and French fries, Yinreng instructed Ruan Jianchun to fry sugar and tea leaves, add fresh milk at the right time, leave it in the pan for a while, and then ask someone to bring ice cubes in.

Then he took a sip——

The whole person came back to life.

After eating and drinking his fill, Yinreng left the imperial kitchen contentedly.

As I walked, I was thinking about when to go to the flower and plant room to get some tomatoes to make tomato sauce.

In the imperial kitchen, Wenrui bowed and nodded as he sent Yinreng away, then immediately ran back, picked up a chicken wing that was not yet completely cold, took a bite, and his eyes immediately lit up like copper bells.

He finished the chicken wings in three or two bites and reached for the rest. Seeing how delicious he was eating, Ruan Jianchun licked his face and asked,

"Butler..."

Wen Rui is not stingy, after all, this is what he did.

"Eat, eat, eat. After you finish eating, make another one!"

Ruan Jianchun took a bite and savored it carefully. He felt that the taste was just so-so, far from the meals carefully prepared by the other Shangshen. However, the French fries had a unique texture and flavor.

Later, he made another cup of milk tea. After Wenrui and he tasted it, they both thought it tasted very good.

The next day, Wenrui took these things to Kangxi and Xiaozhuang to try as if to seek credit.

When Kangxi found out that this thing was made by Yinreng, his face turned ugly for a moment, but when he thought about what he said in his heart that he was not full, Kangxi could not bear to punish him.

As to why Yinreng did these things, Kangxi attributed it to what Yinreng had seen in his previous life.

After a day of investigation, Liang Jiugong delivered the information he had collected to Kangxi, and he had no time to care about Yinreng entering the imperial kitchen.

The first document Kangxi picked up was the one concerning Yinsi.

Because in his opinion, the fourth child has a biological mother and an adoptive mother, and both of them hold high positions, so he should not suffer any grievances.

But it was different with Yinsi. He knew that he didn't like Yinsi very much.

When he heard that Yinsi was wronged, he was only angry for a moment.

Even so, he could not allow his servant Yangzi to bully his master, so he asked Liang Jiugong to investigate the food, clothing and other expenses of Yinsi and Yinzhen.

A few thin sheets of paper recorded Yinsi's food, clothing, expenses and whereabouts for the past month.

Kangxi read carefully. At first, his expression was normal, but the longer he read, the worse his expression became.

It’s not that there is a problem with Yinsi’s share, but that the two mothers who gave birth to Yinsi and raised Yinsi appeared too rarely in this month.

Concubine Hui sent people to the Ganxiwuso twice. One of the times was to inquire about the two princes' food, clothing and other expenses. The other time happened a few days ago. She sent someone to deliver a message to the two princes, asking them to go to Yuqing Palace to visit the prince.

Wei gave Yinsi needlework twice, probably because she was afraid that giving too much would displease Concubine Hui.

"Bang!"

Kangxi slapped the imperial desk. Even people who were not familiar with him could see the anger emanating from his body.

Liang Jiugong was worried and couldn't help lamenting in his heart, "To be with the king is like being with a tiger, to be with the king is like being with a tiger!"

Kangxi said nothing and continued to read Yinzhen's copy.

Upon seeing this, his anger suddenly rose.

There was no other reason. During this month, neither of Yinzhen's two mothers took the initiative to go to Ganxi Wusuo to ask about his food, clothing and other expenses.

However, Yinzhen himself would take the initiative to go to Chengqian Palace to attend to Concubine Tong after class or during his days off.

Kangxi's face turned pale.

Now he finally understood what it meant to be unloved.

At this moment, Kangxi had completely forgotten that he himself never asked about his two sons' food, clothing and other expenses. Every time he went to the training ground and the monk's study, it was to check his sons' schoolwork and riding and archery.

Due to the heavy government affairs during this period, I have not been there very often.

"Issue an order: Consort Hui and Consort De will be fined six months' salary for their harsh treatment of the prince and confined to their homes for fifteen days for reflection."

Kangxi's cold words came out of his mouth, and Liang Jiugong was shocked.

He never imagined that the Emperor had this in mind when he asked him to investigate the food, clothing and other expenses of the two young masters.

What happened yesterday that made His Majesty notice the abnormality of the two young masters?

Liang Jiugong was puzzled.

The decree was brought by Liang Jiugong himself, and soon spread throughout the harem.

Everyone was surprised. There was clearly no news at all, so why did the Emperor punish Concubine Hui and Concubine De for no apparent reason?

Treating the prince harshly is a crime that is too serious.

But why was it only a fine of half a year's salary? This small punishment was not a big deal for the two of them, it was just a hindrance to their reputation.

Chengqian Palace.

Concubine Tong leaned on the couch with a pale face, listening to her personal nanny talking about Liang Jiugong going to Yonghe Palace and Yanxi Palace to convey the imperial edict.

When it was mentioned that both of them were punished for mistreating the prince, a look of relief passed across Tong Jia's pale face.

On the other hand, Aunt Jin Jia, who was standing nearby, showed a worried look on her face.

"Master, the Emperor's decree clearly states that the crime of the Uya and Nara clans is to mistreat the prince.

The Sixth Prince has passed away, and the only prince born to the Uya family is the Fourth Prince. I think someone must have reported that bitch neglecting the Fourth Prince to the Emperor. So, here we are..."

Before Nanny Jinjia finished her words, Tong Jia understood what she meant.
