Chapter 18 I was disgusted by my own greasy words.
"Cough cough."
An old man's cough suddenly sounded at the door. Shen Jing'an and Lin You raised their eyes at the same time, and saw the empress dowager walking in with a cane.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Yougui, why is there a pungent smell in your Yunqian Palace? It has spread to me."
Upon hearing this, Lin You hurriedly stood up, bowed, and turned aside to let the Queen Mother see the barbecue on the table. She smiled and said, "This is the appetizer I made for Your Majesty myself, barbecue."
"Oh, barbecue?" The Queen Mother walked to the table and glanced at the barbecue on the table. "This is a new word. It looks good, but the taste..."
As she spoke, the Queen Mother had already sat down, and then picked up a bunch of it and tasted it lightly, as if she was tasting it. Unexpectedly, as soon as she put it in her mouth, her originally indifferent eyes instantly lit up.
This Concubine Yougui is really good at cooking. She actually made such a novel dish. This is much more delicious than the gourmet banquet that Yuning prepares every year.
Lin You looked at the Queen Mother eagerly and asked expectantly, "Queen Mother, how does it taste?"
"Hmm." Facing Lin You's sparkling eyes, the Queen Mother nodded lightly, "It's OK."
Then she picked up another string.
As a result, it tasted better and better, so delicious that her image as the Queen Mother could no longer be contained, and she nodded repeatedly, "Delicious, it's really too delicious, it's the taste of freedom, this kind of taste, I haven't tasted it for a long time."
This taste, except when she was young and went outing outside the palace with the late emperor, she had never tasted it since then.
At that time, they were free and enthusiastic.
Just like this barbecue now, it is varied, rich in taste, and endless aftertaste.
Shen Jing'an looked at his own mother, who was initially disdainful and pretentious, then curious, then with shining eyes, then satisfied, happy, and crying...
He was so shocked that the corners of his narrow eyes twitched.
Finally, he picked up a skewer and tasted it.
Hmm.
It seemed really good.
Hmm, it was really delicious.
Seeing the barbecue on the table disappearing faster and faster, Lin You also hurriedly joined the battle.
The waiting palace maids and eunuchs were all stunned by the devastating victory of the three most noble people in Sheng Kingdom.
It seemed that the style of the palace had changed!
After eating and drinking to their heart's content, Lin You actively massaged Shen Jing'an and the Queen Mother. "Your Majesty, are you satisfied with the food?"
"Yes."
Shen Jing'an sat back in his chair, closed his eyes and took a nap, looking extremely happy.
"Then considering my hard work, can Your Majesty give me a reward?"
Lin You asked softly, like a breeze blowing past Shen Jing'an's ears, with a hint of hypnotic temptation.
"Yes..."
After responding, Shen Jing'an's eyelids jumped suddenly, and he almost bit his tongue.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, Your Majesty is so good to me."
Lin You's cheerful voice exploded in Shen Jing'an's ears.
"Empress Dowager, did you hear that? The Emperor said he wants to reward me with a body."
"Yes, I heard it." The Empress Dowager
was helpless as she looked at Lin You, who was so happy and had a cunning look in her eyes.
This little girl was taking every step carefully for the amnesty token. She was the kind of girl who wanted to fall into the trap even if people knew she was setting a trap.
"Your Majesty, I have always been frugal. I don't want any gold, silver, jewelry, silk or satin. I just want a token."
With the Empress Dowager's testimony, Lin You turned to Shen Jing'an and presented a great gift, asking for a reward.
Yes, she wanted a reward.
In the whole world, I'm afraid only Lin You has the courage and the face to do so.
Shen Jing'an twitched his eyelids, and simply continued to pretend that he knew nothing, and asked lazily: "What token?"
"Pardon token." Lin You responded very quickly, and then added, fearing that Shen Jing'an could not remember, "It is the pardon token given by the late emperor to the empress dowager, which allows her to enter and leave the palace freely."
At this time, Shen Jing'an opened his eyes and set his gaze on Lin You's bright face.
He saw that she could not hide her excitement.
Shen Jing'an wanted to tease her, and looked at the empress dowager leisurely, "Mother, do you have this token?"
The queen dowager nodded, "Indeed, your father gave it to me personally, and it is still intact with me now."
"Then why have I never seen you use it, mother?"
Shen Jing'an really didn't know about this.
The Queen Mother smiled, "At that time, I was afraid that this token would make the ministers dissatisfied with your father, so I never used it. Later, your father was gone, and this token was no longer useful."
The freedom she longed for was to be with the late emperor, not alone.
Shen Jing'an's eyes dimmed, and he moved his gaze to Lin You's face, with a rather resentful and sinister look.
Lin You blinked, [System, what does the sickly emperor mean by looking at me like this?]
The system was speechless by Lin You's reaction, [Love or not, the emperor can see it clearly from a pardon token.]
[It's over. 】
Lin You suddenly realized, and suddenly grabbed Shen Jing'an's big hand, and opened her lips sadly, "Your Majesty, I want the pardon token, not because I don't care about Your Majesty, nor do I want to take it out of the palace, and not because I don't love Your Majesty."
"But because, I want to find a miracle doctor and ask for medicine for you. The world can see my love for you. I believe that God will help me find a miracle doctor and cure you completely."
[Tsk, I am disgusted by my greasy words. ]
Lin You sighed fiercely in his heart.
Shen Jing'an's face was slightly dark.
This woman is really good at pretending.
"Haha, is that so?"
Shen Jing'an pulled his thin lips with coldness, his amber eyes deep.
"Of course it's true, is Your Majesty doubting my heart?"
Lin You tightly covered her chest, as if her young heart was hurt, she lowered her head and sobbed pitifully.
And in her heart, [What the hell, of course I’m not loving you, but I’m looking for medicine. Medicine is energy, and if I go outside, I can hear more gossip, and there will be more energy, right! ]
Shen Jingan...
since it’s for energy, then he can take her words as true.
"Your Majesty, the amnesty token is useless to me, so give it to Concubine You."
"Besides, this was originally given to me by the late emperor. I think even if Concubine You uses it, the ministers can’t argue." The Queen Mother
looked calm.
[Wow, you are worthy of being my idol, my role model. The Queen Mother is really a thousand years old, no, it should be ten thousand years old! ]
This woman is noisy.
Shen Jing'an expressed his disdain.
However, he said: "Then I'll have to trouble my mother to give her up."
He nodded slightly.
[Wow, the sickly emperor is asking for a pardon token for her. So handsome, so handsome. Look at that pale, cold, yet elegant face. He is so handsome!]
Shen Jing'an was slightly stunned when he nodded. Listening to her woodchuck-like scream, the corners of his mouth unconsciously raised a shallow arc.
It seems that she is not so noisy.
[Suddenly I want to sit on him and bite him. What should I do?]
Dong--
Shen Jing'an was shocked and almost fell off the chair.
Doesn't this woman have the word reserved in her mind!
