There are orchids in the Yuan River and the Li River. The next sentence is "I miss you, sir, but I dare not say it."
Emperor Xuan Jing felt something hit his heart, itchy and hot, his heartbeat was extremely fast, but Bai Susu was still smiling heartlessly. She hooked her hand around Emperor Xuan Jing's sleeve and whispered in his ear: "Your Majesty, I am pleased with you."
Watching Emperor Xuan Jing's icy face slowly crack, even the tips of his ears turned red.
Bai Susu fell into Emperor Xuan Jing's arms and smiled foolishly. She bent her watery eyes and looked at Emperor Xuan Jing's expression with a little interest.
Emperor Xuan Jing was a little annoyed. Seeing her smile as cunning as a little fox, he realized that he had been fooled by her sweet words.
Emperor Xuan Jing gritted his teeth: "Bai! Su! Su!"
He put his big palm on Bai Susu's waist and touched Bai Susu's soft flesh. Bai Susu smiled sweetly and begged for mercy: "Your Majesty, I was wrong."
Then she stood up and put her arms around Emperor Xuan Jing's neck, her eyes sincere: "I didn't lie to you."
Then she gently placed a kiss on the side of Emperor Xuan Jing's face.
Emperor Xuan Jing's heart was suddenly in turmoil.
-
Bai Susu spent an entire afternoon with Emperor Xuan Jing in the Yangxin Palace. With Bai Susu in his arms, Emperor Xuan Jing realized how painful it was to endure.
But even so, he didn't want to let Bai Susu leave. Seeing that it was almost dark, Wang Fuhai's heart was beating fast. He thought that the emperor would not let Bai Guiren stay overnight in the Yangxin Palace. This had never happened before.
He stepped forward anxiously: "Your Majesty, it's getting late. Would you like to order some food?"
Emperor Xuan Jing was stunned for a moment, as if he had not expected time to pass so quickly.
Actually, I didn't do anything this afternoon. I said I practiced calligraphy for a while, but Bai Susu was not determined and stopped practicing halfway.
The two played chess for a while, and then Bai Susu said she wanted to read a book.
In short, no serious business was done. Emperor Xuan Jing originally just wanted to meet Bai Susu and then review the memorials.
Who knew that time would pass so quickly? No wonder people say that beauty can ruin a country.
When Bai Susu heard the meal being served, she immediately became interested, as she had never eaten the imperial meal before.
"Serve the meal? Your Majesty, I am hungry."
Emperor Xuan Jing: “…”
Wang Fuhai: “…”
-
But when the imperial meal came, Bai Susu was shocked. In fact, it looked good on the surface. After all, there were so many dishes that it filled a whole table.
But if you look closely, it must be steamed or stewed. It's so greasy late at night.
Bai Susu's face suddenly turned bitter, and her interest in the imperial meal was mostly gone.
But seeing that Emperor Xuan Jing had no strange expression on his face, he was obviously used to eating there. Since it was her first time in the Yangxin Palace, she did not want to find fault with the imperial kitchen.
So I picked up my chopsticks and thought, what if it tastes good?
The result left Bai Susu speechless. She still preferred stir-fried dishes.
If I had known earlier, I would have gone back to Qixiang Palace. The food in Qixiang Palace is small but delicious.
The mutton and pork on the table are really greasy when steamed.
In the end, Bai Susu ate more of the white cabbage rolls. The cabbage slices were as thin as cicada wings and rolled with lean meat, chopped mushrooms, chopped scallops, and chopped carrots. They were steamed and tasted delicious and not too greasy.
In fact, Emperor Xuan Jing was also quite helpless, because the imperial kitchen was different from the imperial tea room that provided meals to the concubines.
The imperial tea has to be supplied to all the concubines in the harem, so there are naturally many cooks. When there are many cooks, there will naturally be competition.
In order to please the master and win a place in the imperial tea room, one has to put all his energy and brains into studying food.
Sun Yishao and Deng Sanguan are an example. In the past, Sun Yishao suppressed Deng Sanguan completely.
But ever since Deng Sanguan caught Bai Susu's eye and helped Bai Susu develop new meals from time to time, his status in the imperial tea room has long since risen.
No matter how dissatisfied or resentful Sun Yishao was, he had to be polite on the surface.
This is the Imperial Tea Room, but the Imperial Kitchen is different.
The chefs in the imperial kitchen are hereditary. In other words, there are regulations and rules for what dishes should be prepared, how they should be prepared, and how they should be cooked. These rules have been passed down from previous generations and have remained largely unchanged over the years for fear of making mistakes.
Anyway, the chef in the imperial kitchen has no competitors.
As for the emperor, Emperor Xuan Jing actually didn't care much about food. It was just that after having a few meals with Bai Susu, his appetite became a little picky.
Before, he thought the food in the imperial kitchen was pretty good. After all, that was how his father and his father’s father ate.
However, looking at Bai Susu's difficulty in swallowing, her little face changed from the joy of knowing that she was going to eat the "imperial meal" to the disappointment of eating the "imperial meal". She looked like a wilted flower, as if she had lost all her moisture.
Knowing that Bai Susu paid more attention to food than others, Emperor Xuan Jing said, "Ask the kitchen to pick out a few more dishes that you like?"
Bai Susu swallowed the cabbage rolls in her mouth and waved her hand: "No, no." Then she reached for the plate with the cabbage rolls with her chopsticks.
Emperor Xuan Jing: “…” You can’t just focus on one dish.
He called Wang Fuhai in loudly and ordered the kitchen to quickly cook two dishes, both of which were Bai Susu's favorites.
Bai Susu felt suddenly sweet in her heart, and the emperor was also thinking of her.
Bai Susu bit the tip of her chopsticks lightly, watching the emperor slowly pick up a piece of steamed meat with chopsticks and put it into his mouth, his expression unchanged, as if he was enjoying some delicacies from the mountains and the sea.
She thought to herself, compared to the emperor who ate steamed and stewed food every day, she was so lucky.
However, the happier he was, the more pitiful Emperor Xuan Jing seemed.
