Chapter 7: The Strife of the Women of the Palace

"The birthday of the mourning family makes you so annoyed, and it makes Zhao Meiren so expensive. Zhao Meiren, you said that the relationship between the mourning family and the emperor is so deadlocked, if the mourning family asks the emperor to cancel this banquet, do you think the emperor will be very happy. "No one expected Murong Xue to appear here at this time. Judging by the droplets of water between her eyebrows, she had been here for a while.

When Zhao Meiren heard Murong Xue say this, she didn't have a trace of panic and said: "It's rare for the queen mother to think so much about the emperor, and the concubines thank the queen mother for the emperor and the concubines for the night pearl of the East China Sea." ”

"The Queen Mother is thrifty and the emperor is merciful, everyone in the palace is busy for the Queen Mother's birthday tomorrow these days, if they don't have the emperor's consent, will they dare to do this? The emperor is just another way to honor the queen mother, so the palace thinks that the emperor will not agree to cancel the birthday banquet of the queen mother. Even if the emperor agrees with the queen mother to cancel her birthday banquet, it should be the queen mother of the palace for the emperor, and it is not your turn to replace the emperor with a beauty, and the daughter-in-law will see the queen mother! Although Zhang Mengjie didn't know how big Zhao Meiren's background was, her attitude of no one in her eyes made her very unhappy.

Zhang Mengjie lowered her head and bowed slightly to Murong Xue, not knowing if her etiquette was right. Etiquette is a layman for her, what kind of etiquette does she learn as an ordinary modern person! Since crossing into this body, she has basically been lying on the bed, and no one cares if she understands the rules of etiquette.

"Girl, it's finally good, come, let the queen mother take a look!" Murong Xue saw Zhang Mengjie and said, "Yes, my face is ruddy, it seems that I am really fine." The girl is right, thrift is good, but waste is not good, this time the palace spent so much thought for the birthday of the mourning family, if it is canceled now, it will not be able to kill them, and more importantly, it will waste a lot of things. ”

"The birthday of the Queen Mother can allow the concubines and their fathers and mothers to gather in the palace, let the concubines show their talents together with the sons and daughters of the ministers, and let the ministers and their children enjoy the cooking skills of the imperial kitchen in the palace, which is the blessing of the Queen Mother." I have to say that Li Yuqi is very good at being a person, and her words not only resolved this weird atmosphere, but also said that she would show her talent at Murong Xue's birthday banquet.

Murong Xue said: "Concubine Li's dance stage is famous all over the world, but I have never seen Concubine Li dance in the palace, and this time I finally let the mourning family get their wish." ”

Li Yuqi said: "The Queen Mother is too modest, and it is a blessing for the concubines to be able to dance for the Queen Mother." ”

Zhang Mengjie said: "In this way, the daughter-in-law has nothing and nothing, so she can only borrow Zhao Meiren's words: the daughter-in-law can only wish her mother a birthday with a sincere heart." The daughter-in-law was really embarrassed to go. ”

Murong Xue said: "It's okay, didn't the queen mother say that your physical recovery is the best gift for the queen mother." Wu Meiren, Su Meiren, don't worry, you think about giving the mourning family a satisfactory gift This heart mourning family has received, besides, there is Zhao Meiren's East China Sea Night Pearl mourning family can look down on other things? Zhao Meiren's mourning family will be waiting for you tomorrow as the night pearl of the East China Sea. Since the birthday banquet is going to continue, the mourning family will go to be busy with you first. After Murong Xue finished speaking, she glanced at Zhao Meiren and left.

"What's the spirit, you have the ability to make the emperor's heart sincerely towards you!" Zhao Meiren said to Murong Xue's back.

Zhang Mengjie was not familiar with them and had no intention of leaving with them, but she didn't expect Li Yuqi to say to her: "Queen Mother, I heard that you asked the imperial dining room to make a meal that made the Queen Mother with a poor appetite and a big appetite, is it true?" ”

Zhang Mengjie said: "If Concubine Li also has the same poor appetite as the queen mother, you can also let the imperial dining room make it for Concubine Li to taste." ”

Li Yuqi said: "That's true! ”

Zhang Meng said: "Well, if there is nothing else, the palace will leave in advance." ”

Zhao Meidao: "What's this, isn't it just a few meals, is it better than the imperial chef in the palace, Sister Concubine Li, you don't want to learn this, right?" ”

Li Yuqi said: "The concubine wants to learn, but I don't know if the queen is willing to teach." It would be even better if you learned to get the emperor to agree, and you could set up a small kitchen in Qixiu Garden like the queen's Luanfeng Palace. ”

Zhao Meiren said disdainfully: "I really don't understand you, if you are like you, why do you still need a royal dining room in the palace!" ”

Zhang Mengjie said: "Zhao Meiren is right, how can the cooking skills of this palace be compared with the imperial kitchen, if Concubine Li wants to learn, she should also learn from the imperial chef in the imperial dining room." However, this meal is time-consuming, Concubine Li is gentle and virtuous, and she will definitely be favored by the emperor in the future, if she misses the opportunity to get along with the emperor because of this meal, it will be worth the loss. ”

Li Yuqi said: "The queen is too modest, and if she can be praised by Master Liu in the imperial dining room, the queen's cooking skills will be very accessible." The concubines learn to cook not for others but for themselves, and there are always times when the imperial dining room is too busy, and if they can cook, they will not starve. ”

"Since Concubine Li insists on learning from this palace, then Concubine Li will come to Luanfeng Hall when she has time." Zhang Mengjie didn't plan to hide her cooking skills, if Li Yuqi really wanted to learn from her, she would teach her sincerely, if she had other purposes, she didn't care about her, and now is not the time for her to refuse people thousands of miles away.

Li Yuqi said: "The queen's mother is willing to teach it to be the blessing of the concubine, and the concubine will often go to Luanfeng Hall to disturb the queen's mother." ”

Zhang Mengjie saw that the hour was not early, and she didn't know what to talk to them about, and the small kitchen of Luanfeng Hall still needed to be cleaned up, so she said: "Concubine Li will come to Luanfeng Hall when she wants to learn, and I won't bother you if there is something in the palace today." After saying that, he took people away.

When they returned to Luanfeng Palace, it was just lunch time, Qingfeng and Qingyu naturally sat down to eat with Zhang Mengjie after setting up the dishes and chopsticks, while Chunlan, Qiuju, Lu Deshun, and Zhou Li stood there at a loss.

Zhang Mengjie said: "Why aren't you hungry?" Sit down and eat together. ”

The four of them took a look at Qingfeng and Qingyu and sat down unnaturally.

Zhang Mengjie saw that they were a little restrained and said: "You should have heard about my situation in the palace, maybe you are also like some people who are unwilling to come to Luanfeng Hall to wait for me, what I want to tell you now is that if you really don't want to, you can tell me now, I will never force you, if you decide to stay, then the rules of Luanfeng Palace are that there is no distinction between master and servant, only brother and sisterhood." In the future, you will eat whatever I eat, and you will eat when I eat. ”

After eating, the Luan Feng Hall was quickly cleaned up with the joint efforts of the seven people. Later, I didn't know where Lu Deshun found the wood, so with the help of Zhou Li, I made a set of tables and chairs.

In order to better play the role of this set of tables and chairs, Zhang Mengjie asked them to put this set of tables and chairs in a cool place near the kitchen, which is not only convenient for dining, but also similar to modern camping, so that diners can feel happy when eating.
