Chapter 53 I Want to Show My Skills
The autumn hunting ground is located in Jinghua Mountain. It has been fenced off long ago and belongs to the royal hunting ground. The animals in it are big and fat. They have grown for a year just for these few days to be shot by these dignitaries.
The trees were tall and dense. Although it was already autumn, the temperature had not dropped very low, so the grass was still green. An Jiu heard from other palace maids that some had picked mushrooms on the mountain. Others had picked up wild fruits.
An Jiu also wanted to pick it up, and Aunt Qu said that she would give her half a day off, so she could go out then.
The newcomers, Xiaoxia and Xiaoqiu, are one more cheerful and the other more calm, but unlike the previous two, they look very kind and will take the initiative to talk to Anjiu. Anjiu has made an appointment with them that if they want to rest together, they can go out for a walk.
The troops were stationed in a large open space halfway up the hill. The emperor's tent was of course at the highest point, with the mountain behind him and surrounded by the imperial guards and palace guards, making it as safe as a solid wall.
The tent had been set up in advance and all the things were in it. The person who guarded the royal hunting ground had come to clean and tidy it up. An Jiu and the others only needed to put in order the things that the emperor often used.
The emperor was like this, but others were not. An Jiu stood on the hillside and saw that the entire hillside was covered with large and small tents in a fan shape, and people were busy coming and going beside the tents.
An Jiu took a breath of fresh air in the wild and felt better.
Now that it was afternoon, everyone just settled down and waited until tomorrow for the real hunt.
An Jiu saw Aunt Qu talking to a middle-aged man not far away. Aunt Qu didn't look very good. An Jiu waited until the man left before going over.
"aunt."
Aunt Qu pulled her over and said, "You've come at the right time."
An Jiu was suspicious: "What's wrong?"
"The one just now was the head of the imperial kitchen, Qin Bao. He came over to ask Your Majesty what you want for dinner."
An Jiu lost her favor towards the Imperial Kitchen after she found out about the secret between the Imperial Kitchen and the Queen Mother. She automatically stood on the Emperor's side, so after Aunt Qu finished speaking, she asked with enough emotional value: "Your Majesty wants to eat hairy crabs, do they have any?"
Aunt Qu got even angrier when she heard this: "That's what I asked too. I asked them what they brought, and they said that they were going hunting in the wild and everyone was eating game."
Aunt Qu was getting angrier and angrier as she spoke: "Listen to what they are saying. Aren't they mocking Your Majesty? They also said they brought vegetables and mushrooms, and if Your Majesty wants to eat them, you can make soup with them. Before I even said anything, they said that the Queen Mother knew Your Majesty had no appetite, so she specifically instructed them to do so."
An Jiu "..."
"This is too arrogant. The world belongs to your Majesty, not the Queen Mother. They simply don't take your Majesty seriously." An Jiu was filled with indignation, even more angry than Aunt Qu: "What wild vegetables and mushrooms? Are they feeding rabbits? How dare they take them out?"
In the company, if you stand on the side of one of the leaders, you must follow it unswervingly. Speaking ill of the opposing leader can bring you closer to your superior.
An Jiu's words really made Aunt Qu feel a lot more at ease, and her anger was gone after she had vented it out.
"Hey, it's only the first day, it's okay to be a little bit tolerant, what makes me angry is their attitude."
An Jiu said: "Aunt, please don't get angry with me, it's not worth it. When His Majesty is free, I will deal with them sooner or later."
Aunt Qu was happy: "Just tell me this, don't let others hear it, because words can cause trouble."
An Jiu nodded: "Aunt, I understand. Don't worry, I brought a lot of food from the palace. Your Majesty will not starve."
Aunt Qu felt more comfortable.
After An Jiu left, she thought, no wonder the emperor likes her, she is really good at talking. Most people are secretive and dare to say anything, thinking they are being cautious. In fact, in front of the superior, appropriate loyalty must be shown.
Because there are some things that those in a higher position cannot say in their hearts, so they can only sulk by themselves. At this time, they need a mouth to say it for them and vent.
Could it be that An Jiu didn't understand this?
Being a leader's confidant is not something that can be achieved simply by being careful in what you say and do.
In TV dramas and novels, those talkative maids and subordinates, are they really talkative and don't know how to be cautious? No, they are all talking for their masters.
An Jiu came to a small tent not far from the emperor's tent. This was where the palace maids and eunuchs rested, one room for each person. She took some things and went to the other side. There was an outdoor stove here, which was specially prepared for the emperor to heat up meals, boil tea and so on.
An Jiu took a pot, added some brick tea and brown sugar, fried them until fragrant, and poured in fresh milk.
There are many dairy cows raised in the autumn hunting ground, and fresh milk is specially supplied to the imperial palace and the powerful ministers in the capital.
The milk tea was ready soon, and she carried the teapot into the tent. The emperor just came back at this time, and with him came Prince Duan and Prince Jing. Prince Duan was talkative and playful, while Prince Jing was tall, his skin was a little dark from the sun, and he looked quite fierce. Aunt Qu said that Prince Jing often led troops to fight outside, and although he was not good at speaking, the emperor had the best relationship with him.
As soon as the three entered the room, Prince Duan said excitedly: "Brother, I just took a walk in the forest. The rabbits there were so fat and big that I almost couldn't help but ejaculate."
The emperor laughed and said, "Why don't you bring one back?"
Xiao Xia took the cup and An Jiu poured a cup of milk tea for each of them.
It was not her own decision. The emperor had asked her to drink it earlier. The emperor saw it and picked it up and took a sip.
He paused and took another sip.
King Jing saw it and took a sip as well.
Prince Duan finished talking to himself and took a sip. He was more direct.
"Brother, what is this? It tastes really good."
Prince Duan was also surprised. It was so rare that he could drink such good food from the emperor.
The emperor looked at Anjiu, and Anjiu said, "Your Highness, this is tea made from cow's milk."
Prince Duan thought the voice was familiar and stared at An Jiu. An Jiu lowered his head. Prince Duan looked again, and An Jiu lowered his head even lower. He silently said in his heart: You can't see me, you can't see me, you can't see me.
Then Prince Duan remembered it.
"Aren't you the maid who was fighting with the dragon bones?"
The hanging heart finally died.
I really appreciate you remembering me.
"Yes, my Lord, your memory is really good."
Prince Duan smiled and said to the emperor: "My royal brother, this servant of yours is quite clever."
"Intelligent?" The emperor snorted. This snort properly expressed the emperor's disdain for Prince Duan's words.
An Jiu: "I am stupid."
Prince Duan didn't say anything else. She was just a palace maid, so that was all he had to say. He continued to talk to the emperor about tomorrow's autumn hunting.
"Brother, are you going tomorrow?"
An Jiu pricked up his ears and listened.
She hoped that the emperor would not go, but stay there peacefully, and not become a tyrant and cause trouble, bringing trouble to them.
She had seen TV dramas in which if the master made a mistake, all the servants serving him would be dragged down and chopped off.
However, the emperor said firmly: "Go."
[Tomorrow, I will show off my skills and beat all of you. ]
【Hahaha! ! ! 】
The emperor drank the milk tea proudly and signaled An Jiu to pour him another cup.
