Chapter 18 Delicious

The eunuch who served in the kitchen of Yu quickly knelt down and said, "To reply to the emperor, today, Empress Zhen Ronghua went to the kitchen of Yu in person and took away most of the raw meat, especially... especially the meat prepared in Chengqian Palace. The empress took most of it and said that if the emperor asked, she would say that she wanted to eat it..." She

dared to snatch food from the emperor. Wang Dequan really respected Zhen Ronghua as a man.

When Emperor Xuanwu heard that it was Jiang Xinyue, most of his anger had gone. He probably thought that she was jealous of him for pampering Su Guiren and deliberately acted petty with him.

But her behavior of snatching food from the dragon's mouth still made Emperor Xuanwu feel a little offended.

In this regard, Jiang Xinyue just wanted to say that after being offended many times, she would get used to it. Habit is a very scary thing.

She made a little test and offended him, but Emperor Xuanwu tolerated her again and again. Every time she went a little further, Emperor Xuanwu's acceptance would be infinitely expanded.

In the end, no matter what Jiang Xinyue did, he would not think there was anything wrong, and would even tolerate her.

In fact, it was just a habit accumulated over time. Outsiders would think that the emperor loved her so much that he was so accustomed to her.

This was what she wanted to achieve.

Silently training Emperor Xuanwu was her most important task on the road to becoming a favored concubine.

When it got dark, a strong meaty aroma wafted out of Hexi Palace, and it was no exaggeration to say that the fragrance wafted for ten miles.

Emperor Xuanwu, who had not eaten enough, was sitting in the imperial carriage and preparing to leave for Yanqing Palace when he saw a thick white smoke lingering over Hexi Palace not far away.

He straightened his body and said, "Wang Dequan, is there a fire in Hexi Palace?"

Wang Dequan also stretched his neck to look and said, "It doesn't look like a fire. I'll go and take a look."

"Let's go together!"

Emperor Xuanwu said, and the eunuchs carrying the dragon sedan hurried over. They had already sensed the emperor's eagerness.

The closer they got, the stronger the fragrance became, making people salivate.

A palace maid who had received the beef and vegetable buns made by Zhen Ronghua herself came out of Hexi Palace happily. Just as she was about to eat the novel and delicious vegetable buns, she saw the imperial carriage stopped in front of her.

He quickly raised his hands above his head, presented the vegetable package, and knelt on the ground and said: "Slave... This was personally wrapped by Empress Zhen Ronghua and given to you. Please... Please taste it, Your Majesty."

Who is he? He

just helped the Empress move a stove. How could he be qualified to eat the meat roasted by Empress Zhen Ronghua herself?

It should be presented to the Emperor.

Wang Dequan took the unknown object wrapped in green vegetables, opened it and took a look: "Your Majesty, it is beef and garlic slices, and green peppers, it is cooked."

Didn't the kitchen say that Zhen Ronghua wanted raw meat?

He thought that the master was deliberately being jealous! Could he be wrong?

The emperor's meals were tested for poison by a special person before they were eaten.

He raised his chin: "Wang Dequan."

As the emperor's trusted eunuch, he knew from the emperor's look that he had to eat this messy-looking meat dish today. He

hoped that Empress Zhen Ronghua would be reliable and would not let him have diarrhea after eating it.

The little eunuch kneeling on the ground watched his barbecue being eaten, saliva kept swallowing, and his eyes were extremely distressed.

Is it so delicious?

Wang Dequan took a bite, and the spicy taste went straight to his nose. It was so delicious that he almost swallowed his tongue.

He never interfered with which concubine Emperor Xuanwu favored. After eating the piece of meat, he licked his lips with an unsatisfied look: "Your Majesty, you didn't eat enough for dinner! It's still early, do you want to go to Hexi Palace to eat and then go to Yanqing Palace?"

It's so delicious!

It's really delicious!

After the master and servant exchanged glances, Emperor Xuanwu nodded: "Okay."

Because of the barbecue, there was a lot of smoke, so Jiang Xinyue changed into a gray short top and wrapped her hair with a headscarf, looking like a barbecue beauty.

Xi Que and Shuangjiang have learned her true skills. In the open space in the front yard of Hexi Palace, they were grilling meat for their master with small brushes that were almost smoking.

Jiang Xinyue twisted her shoulders while eating, her mouth was bulging, her eyes narrowed with satisfaction, and she shook her head. Her happy look infected everyone.

Some eunuchs and palace maids were also eating barbecue, but they didn't dare to sit at the same table with their masters. They all stood aside and ate quickly with small bites.

Wang Dequan was shocked by the scene of master and servant enjoying themselves together, and forgot to speak for a while.

Emperor Xuanwu did not blame the old man for his misbehavior, because even he himself was stunned by the appearance of Zhen Ronghua, a peasant girl.

"What are you eating?"

A thunderous voice fell into everyone's ears. All the palace maids and eunuchs looked back and were so scared that they knelt on the ground. Some of them stuffed the barbecued meat into their mouths before it was cooled down. They lowered their heads and grimaced, but they refused to spit it out.

Jiang Xinyue heard the voice of Emperor Xuanwu in her ears. She was so scared that she couldn't swallow or spit out the pork belly, and she started to hiccup.

"He, he, he... your concubine... he... pays respects to the emperor..."

Yanqing Palace -

Concubine Su looked up expectantly, but the figure of Emperor Minghuang on the palace road did not appear.

Her personal maid Shuhua said: "My lady, you have been standing for half an hour, go in and wait! The emperor will definitely come after turning over your card." Concubine

Su's face was full of disappointment, she shook Shuhua's hand, and finally walked back unwillingly.

After dinner, Concubine De took the second princess for a walk to digest the food. Seeing that she looked sad, she could not help but comfort her: "It's not time to sleep with the emperor yet. The emperor has gone to Zhen Ronghua Palace to eat. You don't have to be so anxious. Zhen Ronghua is a very kind person."

What she meant was that Zhen Ronghua must know that the person who would sleep with the emperor tonight was Concubine Su, and she would not force the emperor to stay.

Noble Su nodded, "I understand."

After returning to the side hall, Noble Su silently shed tears, feeling extremely wronged.

Concubine De spoke for Zhen Ronghua, which was really biased.

The dinner time in the palace had long passed, how could the emperor go to Hexi Palace for dinner at this time?

I heard that Zhen Ronghua lost favor at first, and only regained the emperor's favor by intercepting the emperor from Concubine Chu.

How come Zhen Ronghua felt that her position was threatened just a few days after she was favored? Was she going to take action against her?

Why was her life so miserable?

Her sobbing was tiny and fragmented, like a kitten, pitiful and helpless.

"What's wrong with my beloved concubine?"

Emperor Xuanwu was in a good mood after being fed and drunk by Jiang Xinyue. He entered the bedroom of Noble Lady Su and did not turn around and leave when he heard the crying: "Why are you crying?"

Noble Lady Su raised her head suddenly, looked at Emperor Xuanwu with a pair of red and swollen eyes, and then wiped her tears hurriedly: "Your Majesty, I...I thought you were not coming."

Yanqing Palace is far away from Hexi Palace. Did she know that he went to Zhen Ronghua's place?
