Chapter 325 Emperor Kangxi: You go and serve the fourth brother.
The Fourth Master frowned slightly, but said nothing. He only ordered, "In that case, let the concubines and the others go back, and let the concubine come in."
Outside, after hearing Su Peisheng's reply, Ulanara smiled slightly, "Sister Li, I'll go in first."
Looking at Li's sullen face, Ulanara's lips curved even wider. So what if he followed her? Wasn't he still chased back by the prince?
She had come here alone today, but when she passed by the garden, she saw Li, Yin and Niuhulu.
Li was determined to go against him and insisted on following him. He couldn't bring himself to send her back, so in the end he had no choice but to bring everyone to the Jingxin Pavilion.
Fortunately, the prince gave her enough face today.
"Madam, please walk slowly and don't fall. I am here to see you off." Li gritted her teeth, but in the end she could only watch Ulanara go in unwillingly.
Ulanara raised her eyebrows and looked at her, then flicked her sleeves, turned around and went into the pavilion with her servants.
Zhao Quan just came over and said that the people from the kitchen of Qingliang Pavilion were mobilized and were busy preparing food, but he didn't know who they were entertaining.
After a little inquiry, Ulanara found out that the Ninth Master and the Tenth Master were at the mansion today.
When the previous princes came, Ulanara didn't pay much attention to them. It wasn't until she had a good chat with the Fourteenth Prince that she realized the benefits of having a good relationship with the princes.
The Fourth Master is busy and often not at home. If the other young masters could say a few words to her, maybe the Prince would remember her. It would be a win-win situation with no harm.
Thinking of this, he asked Zhao Quan to prepare a table of delicious food and bring it over.
Entering the pavilion, seeing Emperor Kangxi sitting at the head of the table, Ulanara was startled and said in shock, "Emperor...Emperor Father?"
How could the Emperor suddenly appear in their house?
Seeing Ulanara standing there, the Fourth Master coughed lightly and said, "You're not going to greet the Emperor when you see him?"
Ulanara immediately came to her senses and knelt down and bowed: "Your Majesty, may your blessings be bestowed upon me! I never thought you were here. I am so rude..."
Emperor Kangxi waved his hand amiably and said, "It's alright. Ignorance is not a crime. I heard that you, the fourth daughter-in-law, also brought some food. Why don't you put it up there too?"
When Ulanara heard the word "yes" said by Emperor Kangxi, she was stunned for a moment.
I subconsciously observed the surrounding environment and found that Wenjiu was also in the room.
Moreover, she was cooking at this time.
Looking closely, there was a man named Tenth Master next to her, holding a bunch of food and looking at her as if he was watching a fun event.
"Sister-in-law Si, don't just focus on grilling. Eat a few bites too, otherwise you won't have the energy to cook delicious food later." While watching the fun, Master Shi squatted beside the grilling pan, picked up two grilled fish, and stuffed a bigger one into Wenjiu's hand.
"Thank you, Master Ten." Wen Jiu was not polite. She was not alone now, and she could not afford to go hungry.
He simply sprinkled some salt on it, then tore off small pieces of fish meat and ate them in small bites.
As Ulanara looked at it, she couldn't help but frowning. How could this warm wine be so familiar to the Ninth Master and the Tenth Master?
Although Zhao Quan said when he came back that Wenjiu had a good relationship with the gentlemen, she didn't know it was so good!
The Tenth Master actually called her Little Fourth Sister-in-law! And even personally sent her food?
This Wenjiu is really bold. She actually dares to eat it even though the Emperor is right in front of her.
What surprised him even more was that the Emperor didn't seem to care much when he saw her eating.
The aroma of food filled the air in the room. In order to maintain a slim figure, Ulanara had not eaten much at noon, and now she felt empty in her stomach.
"The fourth son's wife?" Emperor Kangxi couldn't help but frown when he saw that Ulanara didn't move.
"Fujin, the Emperor is talking to you." The Fourth Master reminded again.
Ulanara came back to her senses and immediately said, "Father, your Majesty, your daughter-in-law will have the food brought up now." Ulanara was thankful that she had just asked Zhao Quan to prepare a table of food.
The meal was exquisite, featuring all the famous dishes the kitchen had meticulously prepared over the past few days. They were far superior to these blackened, roasted things. He immediately composed himself, then rolled up his sleeves with a smile on his face and went to help set the plates.
Emperor Kangxi was extremely looking forward to it, but as he watched the meals being placed in front of him one by one, his expectations gradually faded.
He was used to eating all kinds of delicious dishes, and these things were brought to his table every day. Emperor Kangxi was really not interested.
But since she was the fourth son's wife, Emperor Kangxi didn't say anything. He just nodded and said, "Well, you put in a lot of effort."
Then he pointed to the seat next to the Fourth Master and said, "Since you are here, why don't you sit down and have dinner with us?"
Ulanara smiled lightly and bowed: "In reply to the Emperor, I dare not be presumptuous. I also know a little bit about cooking. How about going over to help Sister Wen? She is still young, so I will take care of her."
As soon as he finished speaking, Master Shi couldn't help but frown: "Fourth sister-in-law, you can't cook, how can you help?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Ninth Master immediately squinted his eyes and looked over. Tenth Master shrank his neck, laughed dryly, lowered his head to eat the skewers and stopped talking.
Ulanara smiled and replied, "Tenth brother, these meals are always the same. Although I didn't make today's meal, I think it should be similar. Don't let Sister Wen get tired all by herself."
"Well, you women are easy to talk to, go ahead."
As Emperor Kangxi spoke, he simply bypassed the food and picked up a bunch of skewers to continue eating. If he continued talking for a while, he was afraid that the skewers would be cold.
After taking just two bites, he couldn't help but frown: "Laojiu, your cooking skills are still a little lacking. But, it's not bad at all."
The food baked by his brat was good enough to be eaten, and it actually tasted quite good. However, Emperor Kangxi still missed the last bite.
Jiu Ye was originally very excited about the competition, but after being interrupted by Ulanara, his interest was completely gone. He just said, "It seems that there is still a gap between my son and Little Fourth Sister-in-law."
The second pot of wine was ready. "Master Jiu, your cooking skills are already very good. You have been busy for a long time. Come and eat something."
As he said that, he picked up the tray and was about to send it over there.
Ulanara suddenly raised her hand to block it: "Is this for the Emperor and the gentlemen?"
Wen Jiu nodded: "In response to Fu Jin's words, that's right."
Ulanara immediately reprimanded him, "How can such food appear on the emperor's table? It is extremely disrespectful. Something should be done about it."
Seeing Wen Jiu was stunned, she immediately took over: "Forget it, you won't understand even if I tell you. How can you understand these things with your background? Let me do it."
Then he rolled up his sleeves, asked for chopsticks from the servant, picked up the meat from the skewers with the chopsticks, and placed it on the sperm's small plate. Then he brought it over respectfully and placed it next to Emperor Kangxi.
"Father Emperor, your daughter-in-law has prepared it for you. Please try it."
Emperor Kangxi's eyes drifted lightly towards the pieces of meat that had lost their heat on the white porcelain plate. He did not move his chopsticks, but lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking about.
After a while, he said, "Well, I don't need you to serve me. Go serve the fourth brother."
