Three days... Wen Xianrong counted the days and nodded.
Then he left with Xiao Chenzi.
Three days should be enough if today is not counted.
It should take less than three days to serve this dish.
After all, preparing the sauce shouldn't take long. However, he never expected that his meticulous planning would be thwarted by the hands of those concubines.
Naturally, the fact that he and Xiao Chenzi went to the imperial kitchen was also spread by word of mouth among many people.
It even spread to the harem.
After hearing this, who could still hold back?
The person who always used his insider to investigate behind Wen Xianrong and found nothing was panicked. If this person was actually on good terms with Xiao Chenzi, he would inevitably fan the flames in the emperor's ears.
The reason why this person learned so many dishes was probably because when Eunuch Chen went to the imperial kitchen, she followed him and learned them.
So this group of concubines actually held a meeting behind Wen Xianrong's back.
Naturally, this was also discussed by many people. After all, he was on good terms with Eunuch Chen, which was something they could not bear to see. What's more, he could even go to the imperial kitchen by relying on his status as a eunuch.
This made them even more jealous, so in the end they planned to trick this person.
She wanted to go to the imperial kitchen and learn everything secretly, and then only tell them a small part to show how knowledgeable she was.
It’s delicious too.
This is intentional, to make them stand out against the green leaves!
How could they possibly let this person achieve his goal? Just a small promise, but he actually had so many devious intentions in it. Now she would let this little promise know just how difficult it was to mess with him.
"Ladies, do you think this person did this on purpose? He wants to use us as a foil to her?"
"Besides, I'm afraid we can all guess what this person's expression is. I'm afraid that a reaction like this will directly push us into a pit!"
Many people around agreed, and naturally, each of their families had a small official, such as a Chang Zai Ying or something.
But I'm not stupid.
They do not rely on their own wisdom, but on their own home.
Generally, it is the big figures who maintain the status quo in this harem.
The class hierarchy in the harem is simply portrayed more realistically. After all, although the number of concubines has sharply decreased, aren't they coming to the palace to bring honor to their parents?
It would be like fulfilling my parents' daydreams. If they get some great jobs and have a bright future, wouldn't they be able to rise to prominence!
Then someone started whispering, complaining why the queen didn't come.
The person who said this was basically glared at by most people.
The Queen now holds such a good position, even though she has no children. However, she is considered an old veteran in the palace and is appreciated by the Emperor. Besides, why would she participate without any reason and without any benefits?
For them, playing a prank on Chang Zai would be of great benefit to them, after all, no one could compete with them for the promotion position.
However, the queen was already at the highest point, and the emperor appreciated her, so all the power in the palace was handed over to her.
She was not as smooth as them in doing this, and even ended up hurting the enemy by a thousand while also hurting herself by twelve thousand.
No matter who is in a high position, it is not easy to act.
Not only would it hurt her, it might also reduce the emperor's trust in her. She would lose absolutely nothing.
Besides, the lion on the palace gate is also warning the people in the harem to talk less and do more.
And they cannot interfere in the affairs of the previous dynasty.
Just live a prosperous life in the second half of your life. If you have any complaints, you will have to go to the King of Hell in the underworld.
He never expected that such a good plan and such a bright future he had planned would be completely destroyed by the concubines in the harem whom he relied on to please.
Afterwards, although I had no grudges against them, I also started a series of confrontations.
The most basic thing was to throw all the braised chicken necks and braised chicken feet that she had picked up into the well in the palace.
And he acted right in front of her without giving Wen Xianrong any chance at all.
It was early in the morning, and she poured the sauce from the specially approved small kitchen to make the braised chicken feet more crispy and delicious. She also specifically asked the emperor whether he wanted sweet or salty taste.
The main purpose is to add the sauce. After all, the most important thing when eating this thing is the sauce sprinkled on it, right?
If the ingredients are not tasty, the taste of the stewed food will probably be greatly reduced.
If we meet this group of people outside the palace, I'm afraid they are here to cause trouble.
"I have to say it's true. We thought the father-in-law had some special feelings for you, but it turns out he took you to the imperial kitchen just to get the chicken necks and chicken feet that these bitches don't want to eat. No wonder you can't escape the status of a pariah!"
“…”
Wen Xianrong wondered what would happen if they knew that it was the emperor who wanted to eat it.
He didn't know whether it would cause an uproar, but the emperor would probably retaliate against them secretly in the future. After all, it was not something that could be done just by saying it.
However, the three-day appointment has not yet arrived. If I tell it in advance, it will be a kind of suppression to the emperor.
After all, the emperor cannot eat this before it is made, and I cannot tell anyone about it.
If this gets out and is heard by other people with ulterior motives, I'm afraid that the job I've taken on will be like a sharp blade on my head that will be beheaded.
I don't know when I'll have to chop off her head and kick it like a ball.
"Everyone, please don't be anxious. My sister just wants to seek benefits for the sisters in the palace. You all know that my sister can cook."
"If we could get some of the things in this palace that they don't eat and use them to make delicious and fragrant food, wouldn't that be turning waste into treasure?"
However, these people obviously did not listen to what he said, after all, they said it was food for the untouchables.
Naturally, those who hold high positions in the palace have never eaten this kind of thing since childhood, so how could they be distracted by Wen Xianrong and eat it?
"I say, everyone, please do not distrust the promise of this small position."
One of them spoke openly and the expression on his face was full of hatred.
I don't understand where the hatred comes from.
Anyway, the sight of him was filled with ferocious stares and expressions, which made his face look horrified.
"What's wrong, sister? Where did you get this from?"
One of them always fanned the flames in my ear, and every word he said was heartbreaking.
"Anyway, you must remember that we cannot trust this promise. Who knows what bad things this promise will do behind their backs."
Just like before, I still did the stupid thing of matching red flowers with green leaves and took them for granted.
"No one wanted to be your supporting actor before, right?"
