Chapter 168 For Stuttering
Xuanyuan Ling's smile to her made her feel a little embarrassed for some reason: "What are you laughing at?"
Chen Qing hugged Xuanyuan Ling's arm and looked at him with a smile: "If you don't know, you might think that Concubine Chun is just a young man. Why does the emperor mind so much?"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" The mood of the day was indeed bad.
Shen Qing stopped teasing after she had laughed. Xuanyuan Ling was indeed not thick-skinned. If she teased too much, it would not be funny anymore. She said, "Your Majesty is jealous of me, and I am very happy."
Xuanyuan Ling felt jealous, but Shen Qing pointed it out: "What are you talking about jealousy? Concubine Chun is a woman."
"Yes, Concubine Chun is a woman, Your Majesty doesn't mind, right?"
Xuanyuan Ling: “…”
He went to slap her butt again: "The sun is shining."
Shen Qing was patted this time, and he was still laughing.
Xuanyuan Ling really had no idea what to do with her. Forget it, just laugh. No one else can see it anyway.
But picking something for Concubine Chun? Xuanyuan Ling just said three words, I don't know, and then turned around and said, "If you have any good things that Concubine Chun doesn't have, I will just give it to you."
Shen Qing's expression was a little difficult to describe: "Your Majesty sent it on behalf of your concubine, what kind of explanation is that?"
Yes, there was no reason for the emperor to deliver things on her behalf, because her rank was lower than that of Concubine Chun.
Xuanyuan Ling was distracted for a moment: "Then don't send it. Concubine Chun doesn't need anything."
"It's a token of my appreciation."
Well, this shows your thoughtfulness.
"I see you don't want that cook anymore."
Chen Qing looked at Xuanyuan Ling teasingly, with a look of secretly enjoying herself. Xuanyuan Ling couldn't help it and pinched her cheeks and pulled them to both sides: "You did it on purpose. You have to mention Concubine Chun when I'm with you? What? Concubine Chun is not my concubine? Aren't you jealous?"
Shen Qing pulled down Xuanyuan Ling's hand that was pinching her cheek and sighed, "Madam Chunfei is a good person."
Xuanyuan Ling wanted to say that there was nothing better than this?
Thinking about it this way, it seems that Concubine Chun is the only one in the palace who avoids favor on her own. This means that this little thing has good vision and picked the most obedient concubine among all the concubines in the palace.
Never mind. Concubine Chun is a good person with a good family background and a good personality. It’s rare for this little thing to have someone to talk to, so it’s not good to ask her not to interact with Concubine Chun.
Xuanyuan Ling agreed.
Shen Qing teased him: "Your Majesty is now like an old father asking me if I have made any bad friends."
Xuanyuan Ling was almost furious, and he remembered that last time in the study room of Zhaohua Palace, she called him teacher. Now she went even further and called him father.
He was really unrestrained and didn't even think about being a cook. He just held the little thing and gave it a good lesson first.
Then Shen Qing was taught a lesson.
The lesson was over until dinner time, and Shen Qing just wanted to eat something to replenish his energy.
New dishes are served today. After all, Xuanyuan Ling is here today, so there are naturally more dishes. After Shen Qing came to the palace, he was really satisfied with the food. There are many kinds of cold dishes, and the hot dishes are not greasy. There are sweet and sour, spicy and sour, salty and fresh dishes, all of which are well made, even the desserts after meals are well made.
Shen Qing even gave up the pearl cake that she liked very much before. Now there are more varieties. Well, she likes new things and gets tired of old ones.
Xuanyuan Ling felt relieved when he saw Shen Qing eating happily.
While eating the delicious food, Shen Qing was brewing and preparing to start. Just because Xuanyuan Ling had asked for the chef earlier, he just wanted to see how she would beg the chef today, so of course she would satisfy him.
"Your Majesty, what do you think of today's meal?"
Xuanyuan Ling saw that she was deliberately bringing up the topic, and then he also deliberately said: "I don't think it's very good."
Shen Qingxin said that the dog emperor was just kidding.
But should we just coax him?
"I always have no appetite since summer. This chef cooks delicious dishes. Can you bring some back when Your Majesty returns to the palace? My Zhaohua Palace is in need of a chef."
"You only need one cook?" Xuanyuan Ling said with a smile, "The dishes you just used were not made by the same cook, including the desserts."
Cold dishes are cold dishes, hot dishes are divided into meat and vegetarian dishes, and according to factions. Desserts naturally have their own specialties, and the imperial chefs have their own specialties.
She pointed to a cook and was afraid that it wouldn't work.
Shen Qing: “…”
Shen Qing really didn't know this. When she was eating in modern times, there was only one chef. It was common practice to bring a chef home if the food was delicious.
Shen Qing felt wronged: “Forget it then.”
Bringing one cook back means it's the emperor's favor and there's nothing wrong with that. But bringing several back means it's against the rules and the empress will have something to say again.
Xuanyuan Ling thought, this little thing won't beg anymore?
He decided to remind her: "If I like, you can naturally bring a few more and put them in the imperial kitchen to cook for me."
Shen Qing's eyes lit up again: "Then Your Majesty, take two more back and put them in the imperial kitchen, and I can eat them."
Xuanyuan Ling continued: "But I think this dish is ordinary."
Shen Qing picked up the sweet and sour fish with chopsticks, picked out the fish bones carefully, and brought it to Xuanyuan Ling's mouth.
Xuanyuan Ling ate a piece of sweet and sour fish that Shen Qing had picked up with chopsticks, and looked at her with a smile: "Just one chopstick of fish?"
Chen Qing began to pick up food for Xuanyuan Ling, and then fed him seriously. When Xuanyuan Ling was full, he finally said: "Today's food is good, reward it."
Well, the dog emperor is becoming more and more playful, but also more and more childish.
Chen Qing felt that this was caused by her own coaxing, just like when he liked to hug her when sleeping late at night, it was her own fault again.
After eating, you can go out for a walk. The moonlight is nice tonight. Chen Qing and Xuanyuan Ling put a lounge chair in the yard and admired the moon for a while. The moonlight reflected in the water is very beautiful.
Fortunately, someone had fumigated the place to repel insects, otherwise it would have been an invitation to mosquitoes.
Of course, they are here to enjoy the moon romantically, but some people are not so romantic and feed mosquitoes.
This time, Chen Mianmian was brought back to the palace by the Queen Mother. Her previous lofty ambitions were ruthlessly shattered twice by Xuanyuan Ling. She thought that she was good-looking and had a personality that men could like, but Xuanyuan Ling ignored her and even ruthlessly drove her out of the palace.
She was beaten and brought back. Before, Nanny Cuiyun felt pity for her, thinking that the empress dowager had forced such a person on her, so she brought her into the palace and treated her as a young lady of the Chen family.
Now Chen Mianmian is really disgusted by Nanny Cuiyun. How can she continue to be the same as before?
She could see that Chen Mianmian was a bad person. The Queen Mother and the Emperor were angry with each other and insisted on bringing her back. She could not disobey the Queen Mother's order, but she had served the Queen Mother for so many years and had been in the palace for so many years. Couldn't she control a little girl?
The people in the palace are the best at tormenting people. Just with regard to food, if you don't eat well, your life will be difficult. After all, it is summer now, and the hot weather will make your stomach upset. Chen Mianmian has asked Madam Cuiyun to take care of it. Today's meal will have all kinds of dishes mixed together, with both vegetables and meat, but it makes people lose their appetite just by looking at it.
Chen Mianmian had a long-term vision before, and she went straight for the emperor and the queen, or she thought it was not a big deal to coax the empress dowager a few words, and she did not take Nanny Cuiyun seriously. In fact, the old people who could survive in the palace had much more life experience than Chen Mianmian, a young girl who used to hang around in the backyard and had never really experienced the ups and downs of life.
