Chapter 462: Stupid in Any Occasion
There are no fixed conditions for liking someone. Even if you have set every condition for yourself in your heart, when you really meet the right person, you will find that even if that person does not meet your expectations in any way, you will still be happy to be with him or her.
When you love someone, all their shortcomings are cute.
When you don't love, it's useless even if the other person is perfect.
Everyone has their own preferences.
Concubine Yi sighed softly while drinking tea. It was not that Cao Bingbing was not good enough, but that she had not entered her son's heart. So no matter how well she did, her son could not see it.
Nanny Wei replaced Chu Qingyun's cup of hot tea. Chu Qingyun smiled and nodded at her, then turned around and started talking to Chen Ruijin again.
Concubine Yi: "..."
I'm so angry that my liver hurts.
"Is lunch ready?" she asked.
Madam Wei was stunned for a moment: "Your Majesty, it will be done soon."
When Chu Qingyun heard what Concubine Yi said, she turned and looked at her: "Mother, are you hungry?"
Concubine Yi rolled her eyes secretly.
I'm starving.
The Third Imperial Consort took a piece of cake from the plate beside her and handed it to Concubine Yi, saying with a smile, "If you are hungry, eat something first. I think a new chef has come to the Imperial Kitchen. I just ate a piece and the taste and texture are unlike anything I've eaten before. It's delicious."
Concubine Yi took the cake and took a bite as if to vent her anger, then she looked at the Third Imperial Concubine with a smile and said, "This was made by Yunlu who is beside the Queen. You can't just taste her craftsmanship."
As long as you are thick-skinned enough, there is nothing you can't eat.
This morning, I went to pay my respects to the Queen and saw Yunlu busy in the small kitchen. I asked her a question casually, and then when I was leaving, I shamelessly took away some of the pastries she had just cooked.
He ran so fast.
The Third Princess was surprised for a moment: "Really? No wonder it tastes so good."
As she spoke, she pinched a piece, then picked up a plate and handed it to the palace maid beside her, saying with a smile: "Bring it to Concubine Chen to have a taste too."
After she said this, Concubine Yi and Chen Ruijin looked at her at the same time.
The Third Consort seemed not to notice the astonishment in the two people's eyes, and smiled faintly: "Sister, this is the first time I have eaten the food in the Queen's palace. It is really delicious. Aunt Yunlu's cooking skills are even better than the imperial chef in the imperial kitchen."
younger sister?
Chen Ruijin shuddered subconsciously.
What medicine did Cao Bingbing take wrong?
But on second thought, the pastries were from the Empress's palace, and were not made by Cao Bingbing. Besides, they were in Yongfu Palace now, so Cao Bingbing shouldn't be so stupid as to trip her up.
"Oh, okay." Chen Ruijin nodded, pinched a piece and started eating.
Just one bite and my eyes lit up.
Then he took a piece of cake and handed it to Chu Qingyun: "Your Highness, try it."
Chu Qingyun looked at the sweet pastry and felt his throat getting greasy. He shook his head and said, "Eat more if you like."
He has always liked eating these cakes.
Seeing that he was resisting, Chen Rujin did not insist and directly stuffed it into her mouth.
Concubine Yi looked at Cao Bingbing with great satisfaction, thinking that she was worthy of being Qingyun's principal wife and could still show the proper bearing.
The third imperial concubine felt Concubine Yi's gentle gaze, turned her head to look at her, and then smiled obediently.
"Eating too many cakes and pastries will cause bloating. Lunch is coming soon." Concubine Yi looked at Chen Ruijin and advised.
Chen Rujin nodded and replied, "Yes, mother."
However, his eyes never left the pastries.
The Third Imperial Consort chuckled and said, "Mother, I beg for mercy on behalf of my sister. Can you pack up all these cakes for her to take home and eat slowly?"
Concubine Yi laughed out loud and said jokingly, "You are a good person. You took my things to borrow flowers and offer them to Buddha."
The Third Imperial Concubine smiled shyly and said, "Then mother, please be kind to me and let me look good in front of Sister Chen?"
"Okay, I love you." Concubine Yi said with a smile.
Chen Rujin looked at the Third Imperial Consort in astonishment, then stood up and saluted: "Thank you, mother, and thank you, Third Imperial Consort."
The Third Princess pursed her lips and chuckled: "We are all sisters, so please don't be polite."
Chen Ruijin curled the corners of her mouth, feeling uneasy for some reason.
It turns out that some people become stupid regardless of time or place.
After lunch, Chen Ruijin was led by a palace maid to a side hall to rest, and stayed in Yongfu Palace until the palace banquet began in the evening.
The three imperial concubines were placed in another palace.
Chu Qingyun followed Chen Rujin without hesitation, leaving the Third Princess no time to say a word. She could only watch the two of them being so affectionate from back to back, her hands clenched into fists at her sides, her nails digging deep into the flesh.
"Are you sleepy? I'll sleep with you for a while." Chu Qingyun said.
"Let's not sleep. What if mother needs us for something?" Chen Ruijin said. Suddenly, she felt an itch on her arm and scratched it.
However, it would be better if I didn't scratch it, as it would make it even more itchy.
"No, mother also needs to take a nap. Unless we oversleep, no one will come to wake us up." Chu Qingyun said. Chen Rujin lifted her sleeves and scratched her hands. Soon her white arms turned red. He immediately grabbed her hands: "What's wrong?"
Chen Ruijin was so itchy: "My body is so itchy."
Just as I finished speaking, I felt my neck itching again.
Just as he was about to reach out to grab it, Chu Qingyun suddenly said in a deep voice: "Don't move yet."
Chen Rujin was stunned: "What's wrong?"
"Why do you have a rash on your face?"
Chen Ruijin was shocked when she heard this, and quickly pushed Chu Qingyun away and strode to the bronze mirror.
Looking in the mirror, she saw that her pretty face was now covered with red rashes that extended all the way to her neck.
Chen Rujin widened her eyes in horror and screamed, "Ah..."
When I looked down, I found that both of my arms were covered with them.
She looked at Chu Qingyun in panic, her eyes red with fear: "How could this happen?"
Chu Qingyun was stunned and quickly stepped forward to hug her, and said softly, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. It should be an allergy caused by eating something wrong. I will ask the imperial physician to come over right away."
As he said this, he shouted outside the hall: "Someone come."
Immediately, a palace servant pushed the door open and came in, saying respectfully, "What do you want, Your Highness?"
"Call the imperial physician."
The palace servant subconsciously looked up and saw that Chen Rujin's face was covered with rashes. He quickly responded, "I'll go right away."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Concubine Yi had just laid down to take a nap when she saw the head maid strode in and bowed, "Your Majesty, the Third Prince has just summoned the imperial physician."
"What's going on?"
Concubine Yi jumped up from the bed.
"I don't know what happened to Concubine Chen, but her face is covered with red rashes."
