Chapter 91: Something unexpected happened
"Master, you are always worried about me." Zi Rui felt embarrassed.
"Because you are so nice, I am always afraid that you will suffer. If you were as smart as your sister Zizhu, why would I worry?" Shen Chuliu said.
"Sister Zirui has a pure heart. After all, she has only been in the palace for two years. I have been here for many years." Zizhu said with a smile.
"Empress Kangde, she looks good and kind. But what I care about is that she and Concubine Feng Shu are clearly enemies. So it's still necessary to show goodwill. But there's no need to take sides. If I really want to take sides, I'd stand on the side of the Empress." Shen Chuliu put away her smile: "Now that Wen Xiaoyi has come here with such fanfare, I'm afraid that Fuyang Palace will hate me to death in the future."
"She can't do anything to Concubine Kangde, but she can deal with me. Just wait and see, our meals will have to change as well."
"What should we do then?" Zi Rui was nervous.
"No rush, let's take a look first. What I am using now is beyond my position. No matter how it changes, as long as it is not less than my position, it will be fine. I want to see what tricks they play." Shen Chuliu said.
I usually feed him a lot, so it can’t be of no use at this time, right?
On the way back, Wen Xiaoyi asked in a low voice: "How is it? Is she very happy?"
"What is there to be happy about? Only someone like me who has no one to rely on will be happy." After Wen Xiaoyi said this, Xingzhi didn't dare to ask anymore.
Wen Xiaoyi thought that even if she fell out of favor for a while, the imperial kitchen would still have to rush to serve her.
That's the best almond milk, it's very difficult for her to get it.
Even though it was Concubine Jing who had clearly offended the Emperor, the kitchen was still given to her.
No matter it was given voluntarily or Jing Meiren asked for it, it showed that the kitchen also had high hopes for Jing Meiren.
There are many people who want to take advantage of others' misfortunes, but there are also people who want to help others in times of need.
If nothing else, just to benefit from it in the future.
Even Concubine Kangde meant the same thing, didn't she? Otherwise, the Liu family didn't have a high status, so how could they tame Lady Jing? It's a pity that, judging from the current situation, Lady Jing didn't have any bad intentions at all, so I'm afraid it's difficult.
After a long while, Xingzhi said again: "This is also a good thing."
Wen Xiaoyi smiled and said, "It's a good thing."
For her, it is naturally a good thing.
If Jing Meiren really came to her like this, she would have nowhere to stand.
After hearing what Wen Xiaoyi said, Concubine Kangde said nothing.
The goal has been achieved.
When the people of Jingmei are having a hard time, they always think of a solution.
If the queen doesn't care about these trivial matters, who can she ask for help? Sure enough, soon, people in the palace knew about this matter. Concubine Kang De asked Wen Xiaoyi to visit Jing Meiren.
There are all kinds of rumors out there.
Concubine Feng Shufei and Concubine Yi were both ready to make a move.
Concubine Yi already suspected that she was pregnant, so naturally she would not sit idly by and watch other concubines take the position as she did in the past. It was a good thing that she could take the opportunity to suppress Shen Chuliu.
Ning Jieyu and others also had to get involved.
As for Empress Dowager Feng, she couldn't do anything at this time, but she could still give instructions to the people below to do it.
The next day, something unexpected happened to Shen Chuliu.
The breakfast was fine, but for lunch, there were only four dishes and one soup.
This is nothing, it is not lower than her position.
The first day was just a test. It is easy to imagine that they were still offering gifts yesterday, but today it is like this. There must be someone's instructions.
Shen Chuliu sneered: "When it comes to the affairs of the palace, I'm afraid you are not brave enough and not careful enough."
Suddenly, the servants didn't understand this sentence.
"It's okay, you just need to watch and make sure nothing that shouldn't be there comes in. There's no need to worry about anything else." Shen Chuliu said.
After two or three days, her diet plummeted. However, Concubine Kangde, who had promised to take care of her, did not step forward.
This is waiting for Shen Chuliu to ask for it himself.
And there has been no news on the fabrics she had previously sent to the Clothing Bureau.
Finally, on the eleventh day, when lunch was served, everyone's faces looked terrible.
Same four dishes and one soup, but what is this?
The three vegetarian dishes are stir-fried cabbage, cabbage vermicelli, and loofah, and the one meat dish is pig's trotter, but Shen Chuliu never eats it.
The soup was seaweed soup, the rice was stale rice, and the color was wrong.
It wasn't smelly or rotten, but this was not the kind of meal a fifth-rank beauty should have.
"It's time." Shen Chuliu smiled and said, "Pack the meal for me as it is."
She was in a very good mood: "Let me have a few bites of the snacks first, then we should go to smash the place. Yuanxiao and Chisu will go. You guys stay here."
Yuanxiao is the eunuch, and Chisu is the one with the fastest physical reaction.
Zi Rui and Zi Zhu were a little worried: "Master, what do you want to do? Tell the Queen, or... take the opportunity to tell the Emperor?"
"No. Have you forgotten what I said? The palace is afraid that you are bold but not careful enough. As long as you are careful enough, you can always find a way out no matter what you do. It's just smashing the kitchen. How big of a deal is that?"
"Master!" Everyone was stunned: "You...you're going to smash it? Really?"
"Yes, it was really smashed. Why, are you scared now?" Shen Chuliu said with a stern face.
Everyone hurriedly said they didn't dare: "Then let all the servants go."
"No, that won't be good. Just wait and see. I will be grounded again, or have other punishments. It doesn't matter." Shen Chuliu said in a good mood.
Everyone had no choice but to stop talking.
Zirui and Zizhu watched their master leave, sighed, and didn't know what to say.
Zhe Mei smiled and said, "Don't worry too much. There will be some punishment, but the master's disturbance will benefit others."
"What do you mean?" Zizhu asked anxiously.
"You know, the Queen is a calm person, and she certainly wouldn't do anything that's not worthy of being seen. A few days ago, the Imperial Kitchen was eager to serve her, but now, just because Wen Xiaoyi came, they treated her badly. It's obvious that someone is behind this."
"Last year, because of the Queen's pregnancy, the palace changed people in charge several times. The people in the imperial kitchen must have their people. With people, it's easier to get things done. For example, they made things difficult for Concubine Li before, and now they're making things difficult for our master."
"Our master is unwilling to be patient. If things get out of hand, the worst that can happen is that our master has a bad temper. After all, there must be a reason for everything, right? When the time comes, the masters above will inevitably take advantage of the opportunity. Who doesn't want to catch the people arranged by others?"
"But what if the meals of the two Empress Dowagers and the Queen are delayed?" Zi Rui was most afraid of this.
"How could that be? If they dared to tamper with our Cuiyunxuan meals, how could they be delivered as usual? Besides, even in the past, the meals of the two Empress Dowagers and the Empress were always at the top of the list. The meals of the princes are from the Emperor's Imperial Kitchen. When our master and his friends are there, even if there are still meals left in the kitchen, it won't be a problem."
[Okay, this time the high energy is coming, and we are going to mess things up. ]
Can I leave a message today?
