Chapter 705 Your Majesty, I will kneel down and grill meat for you?
"Shut up," Emperor Kangxi said coldly, his sharp gaze sweeping over his sons. "Be quiet and let her speak for herself."
Wen Jiu: "What did I do wrong?"
Wenjiu was really confused at this moment. What was going on?
By chance, at this moment, a servant came into the room and said, "Your Majesty, the eldest concubine has arrived."
Emperor Kangxi curled his lips coldly: "Oh, okay, everyone is almost here. Let's shout."
Wenjiu blinked.
Dafujin?
Could it be that he's talking about the fight that just happened?
The eldest wife entered the room, but she was more self-aware than Wen Jiu. She knelt beside Wen Jiu and bowed her head, saying, "Father, I know I was wrong. It was my fault for making Mother and Consort De angry. I will definitely apologize to them later."
As the eldest wife spoke, she kowtowed to the ground again: "Please punish me, Father."
Emperor Kangxi glanced at his daughter-in-law and snorted coldly: "I don't blame you, get up."
Then he turned his gaze to Wen Jiu and narrowed his eyes: "Do you know where you went wrong now?"
Wenjiu also understood that Emperor Kangxi was really talking about the quarrel between Concubine De and Concubine Hui today.
His eyes rolled, and he imitated the eldest concubine, bowing his head and saying, "It's my fault. I have angered the Empress De and the Empress Hui. I will definitely apologize to them later. I hope the Emperor will punish me."
As soon as these words were spoken, the eldest lady who had just stood up beside him was stunned. Why did these words... sound so familiar?
Jiu Ye couldn't help but hold his forehead and muttered, "Little Fourth Sister-in-law is really talented. Can't she change two words when she speaks like the eldest sister-in-law?"
Shi Ye: "I changed a few of them."
Jiu Ye: “…”
Emperor Kangxi listened and looked at Wenjiu for a while. Seeing Wenjiu's serious expression, he couldn't help laughing. He pointed at her for a while and said, "You are really something."
For a moment I didn't know what to scold her for.
You could say she is smart, and she is smart. She knows how to emulate the eldest lady, and she also knows how to act nicely.
You could say she wasn't smart, but she didn't miss a single word. Even now, she's probably still confused and doesn't know why the First Lady said that.
"Father Emperor, I have grilled the lamb skewers you just requested. Please taste them and see if my cooking skills have improved."
Just as the air around him was freezing cold, the Fourth Master came up to Emperor Kangxi with a tray and presented it with both hands.
Emperor Kangxi slowly shifted his gaze to his fourth son, only to see that he did not look away, as if he had not even glanced at Wen Jiu.
Then I glanced at the tray in his hand. The lamb skewers were still sizzling with oil, and the aroma was wafting straight into my nose. It was obvious that they had just been grilled.
Emperor Kangxi squinted his eyes and glanced at the Fourth Master. Finally, he reached out and took out a mutton skewer, saying: "They are both of the same character."
As if he hadn't heard, the Fourth Master returned to his grill with the tray and randomly picked up a shrimp. He said, "I've tried grilling these shrimps several times but they haven't turned out well. Father Huang, how about asking Jiu'er to come over to me and have her grill the shrimp for you?"
Emperor Kangxi snorted coldly, glanced at the man who was warming the wine, and finally waved his hand and ignored him.
Jiu Ye was now beside Si Ye and immediately waved to Wen Jiu: "Come quickly, little Si Ye's wife!"
Wen Jiu glanced at Emperor Kangxi, then got up and glanced at Wei Zhu beside him: "You should get up soon too."
After saying that, he quietly squatted next to the Fourth Master.
Coincidentally, Emperor Kangxi suddenly turned around and looked at him. Wenjiu was startled and fell to his knees.
"Your Majesty, as a token of my repentance, I will kneel here and grill some meat for you."
[Master... your skills are still as strong as they were back then.]
Warming the wine: "..."
Nonsense, without this kind of vision, would you have survived until now?
The Fourth Master glanced at Wen Jiu and knew that it was a bit inappropriate at the moment, but he still couldn't help but curl his lips.
This girl really knows how to deal with current affairs.
Emperor Kangxi saw Wenjiu's behavior and wanted to keep a straight face, but he couldn't help laughing.
Sensing that his image was being damaged, Emperor Kangxi frowned again and said unhappily, "Do I really mean to make you kneel down? Hurry up and grill your shrimp."
"Hey! I will try my best to grill the shrimps that the emperor likes the most.
And the grilled fish that the emperor loves to eat..."
As soon as she finished speaking, she realized that the Fourth Master had already put the ingredients on a tray and handed it to her.
Wen Jiu took it immediately and couldn't help but let out a sigh and supported his chest. He felt that he had passed this hurdle.
Over there, Prince Zhi, seeing that there was a place to sit while warming the wine, immediately felt sorry for his wife and immediately glanced at Emperor Kangxi above him: "Father Your Majesty, my wife is not feeling well..."
Emperor Kangxi glanced at him, and it was obvious that his mood had improved a little at this moment. He said directly: "Eldest brother's wife, please go and sit down. Let's use it together."
The eldest wife glanced at Emperor Kangxi secretly and immediately responded, "Yes."
When she sat down in front of Prince Zhi, she couldn't help but glance at the warm wine opposite her.
Although it is better if the emperor treats me well.
But she always felt that the emperor seemed to be more friendly to Wenjiu.
Wenjiu looked at Emperor Kangxi's stern face and couldn't help but curl his lips.
This old man is so unreasonable.
You said your two concubines had a fight, why are you blaming your daughter-in-law? If you have the guts, go get angry with your concubine!
It turns out that there is nothing in this world that this old man dares not do.
Wenjiu had just finished grilling a fish, but before he could send it to Emperor Kangxi, he saw that Concubine Hui, Concubine De, and Concubine Rong were all summoned to the Palace of Heavenly Purity.
Emperor Kangxi glanced at them from above and his expression turned unhappy again.
He said in a cold voice, "I recently obtained a volume of the Heart Sutra, which is quite good. I don't trust others, so I would like to trouble you, my beloved concubines, to help me hand-copy a few copies, so that they can be sent to the New Year tomorrow for worship."
Before the three ladies understood what was going on, Emperor Kangxi arranged for them to copy the Heart Sutra in a side hall.
To be honest, this side hall is not very comfortable.
There is a smell of barbecue outside, which makes you hungry. It is full of the aroma of smoke.
The side hall was different. There were two incense burners, and the faint scent of sandalwood drifted up from the burners.
It didn't make people calmer, but instead made the aroma of the barbecue coming through from outside more fragrant.
Rong Fei was unhappy at the moment. She followed the two men into the side hall and saw the thick stack of Heart Sutra on the table. She was so angry that she rolled her eyes.
He lowered his voice and said, "It's New Year's Day, how unlucky!
"Couldn't you two have quarreled at some other time? Why did you have to do it now? You've made the Emperor unhappy. None of us will have a good life. Look, it's almost the end of the year, and you're being punished to copy Buddhist scriptures together. With so many young people watching, you don't even have to save face now!"
