Chapter 358 Your Majesty, Have You Eaten Too Much?
Aunt Wen was shocked: "Your Majesty, Miao'er has never been an official, how could he know these things? He was too naughty when he was young, and he didn't even read a few days. He is not fit for a big responsibility. Your Majesty, please be merciful and let him return next year. It's been three years, I think his temper has been tempered."
Concubine De nodded directly: "I agree. I will go back and make arrangements later."
Aunt Wen thanked her immediately, but Concubine De above her remained silent, with a dazed look on her face, and no one knew what she was thinking.
He even ignored the harsh words that Concubine Hui Yanyang said in a weird tone.
"Oh, you don't even share the food with your sisters. Sister De is really getting more and more stingy. Could it be that the Emperor didn't give you any rewards when he visited your palace recently?" Seeing that Concubine De didn't respond, Concubine Hui spoke more and more unpleasantly.
Defei still ignored her, and Huifei was like a fist hitting cotton. In the end, she turned her head away with a lot of resentment and didn't look at Defei.
In fact, after Wen Jiu left, all the female relatives' gazes were fixed on Wen Jiu in the distance.
At first, everyone thought she was just a maidservant of Concubine De, and no one took her seriously. Even when the Fourth Master said that His Majesty wanted to see her, no one believed her.
Some also speculated that Concubine De had colluded with the mother and son and was going to present treasures to the emperor again.
Seeing from afar that it was an offering of food, most people looked down on it. The emperor had a poor appetite today, and most of the people in the backyard had already sent various soups and food, but they were all turned away, right?
Here, today is an important day, how can His Majesty have the time to eat?
Who would have thought that the girl actually stayed in front of the Emperor for a long time.
She cooked the food, and not only did the Emperor eat it, he even allowed her to send some to Concubine De as well.
Concubine Hui was also curious about what the food was, so she told Concubine De about it. Unexpectedly, she didn't say a word to her from beginning to end!
The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. She realized her daughter-in-law was looking at her, and her expression suddenly turned even uglier. "There are always a few capable people in the backyard. If one doesn't work, another one can. But you, on the other hand, just killed them all at once. There's no one to help you when you speak."
After hearing what Concubine Hui said, the eldest wife just smiled faintly and said, "Mother is right, it is my daughter-in-law who is wrong."
She knew her mother's temper very well, and now she was jealous of Concubine De's mother having someone who could make the emperor happy. Furthermore, her mother had always been unhappy with the fact that the master favored her alone, and she would talk about it from time to time. Today, she was still polite and didn't bring up the child.
Now the baby in her belly is her third. The first two were daughters, and her mother is very dissatisfied. She really hopes that the one in her belly is a son. In this way, she can stand up more firmly and control the master from going to other people's rooms. I think no one will say anything.
When Concubine Hui saw the smiling face of the First Lady, she felt like she was punching cotton again.
What can I say?
It was his son who was not doing his job well. He got angry before he even said a word. On the contrary, his daughter-in-law always agreed with him.
Besides, his daughter-in-law is still pregnant, and the emperor treats her like a precious child. He even gave her a stool with great fanfare.
For any woman in this palace, if she becomes pregnant, it is like a universal talisman. Her life will be extremely comfortable, and the Emperor will not allow others to say a word about it.
I hope this group of daughters-in-law can give birth to a prince, so that the Emperor can be happy. The palace has been gloomy recently and there hasn't been any happy event for a long time.
He glared at Concubine De fiercely, snorted coldly, and turned around and said, "Tell the Queen Mother later that I have a headache and need to go back to rest."
"Mother, are you feeling unwell?" asked the eldest wife.
Concubine Hui's eyes widened: "I have a headache, of course I feel uncomfortable!"
The eldest wife stood up and bowed slightly: "Mother, your daughter-in-law will go and tell the ancestors right away."
Concubine Hui frowned. "No hurry. You can talk to her later when the Queen Mother returns. Now just sit still. I'm counting on you to give birth to a grandson for me soon."
Then, he flicked his sleeves and left with his men.
The maidservant beside the eldest wife couldn't help but frowned when she saw this: "Fujin, the queen..."
The eldest wife waved her hand calmly: "It's okay, I'm used to it. Don't tell the master."
I've had two daughters in a row, and life will be better if I can give birth to a son this time.
On the other side, Wenjiu returned to Emperor Kangxi and saw a strange face from afar.
The man was wearing a four-clawed python robe. He was about the same height as the Fourth Master and looked gentle, like a modest young master.
Wen Jiu only took a glance and immediately bowed: "Your servant greets the emperor and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
Now, the only one who can wear yellow clothes is probably the prince.
The prince lowered his head to take a closer look at Wenjiu's face, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"Are you...warming wine?"
There was more affirmation in his question.
"In reply to His Royal Highness, I am your servant."
The prince smiled, not looking at Wen Jiu. He turned to Emperor Kangxi and said, "Father, I have long heard of Miss Wen's great name. I didn't expect to see her here with you."
Emperor Kangxi chuckled and said, "It's just right that Miss Wen has returned. I'll make some pancakes for the Crown Prince. Baocheng has lost weight recently."
Emperor Kangxi said this and patted the prince on the shoulder.
The prince nodded gently: "Thank you, Father Huang."
Wenjiu also responded immediately: "I obey your command."
He immediately went to his small stove and picked up the spicy strips: "Your Highness, do you like spicy food? You can try this flavor."
Emperor Kangxi was more attentive this time and warned, "Baocheng, just take a small bite. If you can't eat it, just spit it out."
The prince responded and picked up the spicy strips. He was surprised: "It smells so good."
"Your Highness, you have to be careful about this. I was so spicy just now that I can't recover for a while." As a person who has been through this, Tong Guowei is still advising the prince.
Listening to everyone's words, the prince became more and more curious about this thing, and immediately took a small bite.
After savoring it carefully, he immediately took a breath of cold air.
Wenjiu handed over the water that he had prepared earlier. The prince took it and drank it in one gulp.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince probably can't eat this. Can I make something lighter?" Wen Jiu said.
The prince then took another bite of the spicy strips, shook his head because of the spiciness, and drank some water.
After repeating this several times, the prince finally finished eating the spicy strip.
"This tastes great. I can have some."
Wenjiu saw that the prince was about to cry, so he nodded and went to make pancakes. It turned out that he was a person who loved to eat.
The pancakes were made very quickly, and after a while he warmed up the wine, he wrapped a pancake of normal size for him.
Tong Guowei, who was standing behind him, stared blankly at the prince, then at the spicy strips. Suddenly, he was eager to try, "Miss, can you make another one for me? I want to try the spicy strips, too."
He saw that the prince could eat it and seemed to enjoy it very much, so he always wanted to try it.
Wenjiu nodded immediately: "Please wait a moment, sir."
"I'm making one for me too, just put more meat in it." Emperor Kangxi also felt lonely.
Wen Jiu listened to what Emperor Kangxi said, and he was a little amused and helpless: "Your Majesty, did you eat too much today?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the surroundings became unusually quiet again.
Tong Guowei: This girl is truly a heroine. She even dares to control the emperor's diet!
Prince: Does the Emperor eat a lot? The Emperor hasn't had a good meal in a few days.
Thirteen: His little heart couldn’t take it anymore, so he decided to go to his fourth brother early.
14: How can you be so careless when it comes to warming the wine? If this continues, won't Fourth Brother dislike you soon?
Then can I get her to my place?
"Your Majesty has already eaten two large pancakes. He ate less recently and his stomach has become smaller. Now he eats too much at once. First, it increases the burden on his stomach and intestines. Second, overeating can easily cause gastrointestinal dysfunction." Wen Jiu was still trying to persuade him earnestly.
