Concubine Lan was making trouble with mice again, and An Xiaoshan naturally enjoyed this activity endlessly. An Xiaoshan caught mice for Concubine Lan more and more frequently, and the actions became more and more intense. But every time I catch mice, Cardamom has the hardest time.

But recently, various departments in the palace have become more and more rude to Zhilan Palace, and even sending money has no effect. An Xiaoshan and Concubine Lan knew that this must be the Queen's instigation, otherwise why would these departments not be interested in money.

After practicing Tai Chi with the Queen Mother that day, Concubine Lan stayed to chat with the Queen Mother, while An Xiaoshan returned to the palace to prepare some food.

As soon as he entered the door, Partridge ran over affectionately. This little girl would harass An Xiaoshan whenever she had the chance and would never die with her evil intentions towards him.

But recently, An Xiaoshan and Concubine Lan had been catching mice a lot, so they didn't have much desire for him, but it was nice to tease him once in a while.

"Brother An, no, Manager An..." Partridge came to An Xiaoshan and lowered his head in shyness.

An Xiaoshan suddenly became the manager, which made her a little uneasy. After all, there is a difference between Kitchen Assistant Anzi and Manager An.

Besides, they haven't formally met each other yet. There are more than ten maids in Zhilan Palace. Manager An can choose at will. I'm afraid no one will be unwilling.

Apart from the Queen and the Queen Mother, Concubine Lan is the most noble woman in the harem. As the chief steward of Zhilan Palace, she has a bit of face in the harem.

Watching the leaping partridge.

"When there's no one around, you should call me Brother An. What's wrong, Partridge?" An Xiaoshan took the initiative to hold her little hand and asked.

"I thought you wouldn't get along with me after you were promoted to manager. After all, I'm not good-looking..."

Partridge touched his burning face and whispered.

"How is that possible? Don't say that I am only the steward of Zhilan Palace. Even if I become the steward of the harem, I will not ignore you."

An Xiaoshan is a scumbag who speaks love words as soon as he opens his mouth. To a certain extent, he is telling the truth. Of course, there can't be only one partridge.

Sure enough, when Partridge heard what An Xiaoshan said, his eyes shone like peach blossoms, as if he wanted to knock him down right away.

Speaking of which, An Xiaoshan, who is so skinny, does have the potential to be a gold medal scumbag.

"Well, Brother An, you are so kind. You are the steward now. And I am just a little palace maid..."

Partridge felt that he was not worthy of An Xiaoshan, so he became a little uneasy. .

"Oh, why are you so small? Isn't this very big?" An Xiaoshan pointed at her breasts maliciously and teased her to his heart's content.

"Ah, what are you talking about here? If Brother An likes it, come face to face with me as soon as possible. Not only can you look at it, why don't you touch it first..."

Although the little palace maid Partridge was shy, her expression was bold and unrestrained, which surprised An Xiaoshan.

The two people were chatting when a colorful paper kite floated over from the wall.

"What a beautiful paper kite..." The partridge took one look at it, dropped An Xiaoshan and ran and chased after it excitedly.

The paper kite is really beautiful. It is stretched on the surface with fine light brocade, and then the colorful phoenix pattern painted on it with colored pens is lifelike and not ordinary.

After a while, a woman came to the door of Zhilan Palace.

"Please also report to Concubine Lan that the eldest princess is visiting." The palace maid said politely to the little eunuch who was watching the door.

Hearing the words "eldest princess", the little eunuch guarding the door did not dare to delay, and soon found An Xiaoshan.

"This is Sister Lan's Zhilan Palace. I haven't been here for a long time." When An Xiaoshan followed him to the door, he found a young woman about twenty years old looking up at the plaque of Zhilan Palace.

In this world, twenty-year-olds are already young women. The bun is also simple and neat, with only an ebony hairpin on the head and no other accessories.

Wearing an elegant light yellow silk dress, she is clean, simple, and elegant. His eyebrows are sparse and clean, his temperament is quiet and serene, his eyes are as clear and sweet as autumn water, his skin is like gelatin, and his hair is like daisy.

He holds his hands behind his back like a man, but his slender body exudes an air of nobility that cannot be looked up to.

An Xiaoshan took a look, and only four words came to his mind, fairy sister. He couldn't find any other words to describe the woman in front of him. Her temperament was naturally matched with these four words.

For a moment, his mind was leisurely and he stood there blankly. Partridge pulled from behind, and then he reacted.

"My slave An Xiaoshan has met the eldest princess."

An Xiaoshan brought a group of people to the ceremony. The eldest princess is the eldest daughter of the Queen Mother and the biological sister of His Majesty.

"Is Sister Lan here?" The eldest princess looked away from the plaque, and the vicissitudes of life in her eyes quickly disappeared. Calm as water.

"Back to the eldest princess, the imperial concubine went to the Palace of Prayer for Good Harvests to accompany the Queen Mother. I don't know when she will return to the palace." An Xiaoshan replied.

The eldest princess, who was about to walk in, stopped when she heard these words, showing a thoughtful expression.

"If Sister Lan comes back, tell her that I have come to see her." The eldest princess gently put down her words, turned around and floated away with the kite.

Regarding this eldest princess, regardless of whether Concubine Lan called her sister-in-law instead of sister, An Xiaoshan could tell something about it.

Since it is Concubine Lan who has been handkerchiefed since she was a child, and she still expects others to do business, she must be a better person and give Concubine Lan some face.

Especially after seeing the appearance of the eldest princess, he thought of a snack, Snow Meiniang. Cool and beautiful on the outside, sweet and cool on the inside.

An Xiaoshan came to the kitchen and asked the little eunuch in the kitchen to get busy. As a general manager, just talk.

Prepare glutinous rice flour, starch, milk, butter, sugar and other ingredients. Mix glutinous rice flour, starch, and sugar together, add milk, mix well, sift and pour into a bowl.

Steam for two-quarters of an hour. After steaming, add butter while hot and knead into dough. Then just like making steamed buns, fill with light cream and fruit, and then close. Place in ice cubes to cool down.

When it was almost cold, An Xiaoshan asked Mingyu to take the partridge and deliver it to the eldest princess.

Partridge didn't understand what was going on, but Mingyu secretly sighed that the new general manager would take care of things. Concubine Lan and Princess Dazhang have a good relationship. Although the empress is not here, she should still be concerned.

The day in June was as hot as a furnace.

The eldest princess became a widow before marrying, and her character became even colder. Except for the people who clean the small yard where she lives, few people come to it.

So when someone knocked on the door, the little palace maid thought she had gone to the wrong place, and it took her a long time to open the door.

"Please tell the eldest princess that Zhilan Palace has sent some snacks to cool off the summer heat for the princess to taste. Please inform the princess." Mingyu's politeness and kindness made the little palace maid very happy.

The little palace maid went in for a while and then invited the two people in very affectionately. When the three Snow Mei Niangs appeared, even the eldest princess, who was as cold as autumn water, had a flash of surprise in her eyes.

There are three Snow Maidens, one is in the shape of an inflated puffer fish, one is a plump chick with a yellow comb, and the other is a snow-white face like a little bear.

They are all clear and lovely, with a hint of coolness, making people salivate at the sight but reluctant to eat.

The little palace maid almost opened her mouth and screamed, these things are so cute, who would have the heart to eat them? He couldn't help but look at the princess eagerly, hoping to be merciful.

In fact, Mingyu and Partridge were no better than this little palace maid when they first saw them.

The eldest princess took a piece of sandalwood chopsticks and gently picked it up and took a careful bite. A refreshing sweet and cool air instantly penetrated her extremely irritable heart and made her whole body feel relaxed.

It was rare that in front of three people, three mouthfuls of four were able to kill the little pufferfish. The little palace maid next to me almost burst into tears. It was so cute, how could you bear to eat it.

Then, under her horrified gaze, the eldest princess stretched her chopsticks towards the little bear's round face again.

After the eldest princess eliminated the two Snow Mei Niangs, she finally let go of the plump little yellow chicken under the almost pleading eyes of the little palace maid.

"Did Sister Lan ask you to send this?" The eldest princess asked after gargling and wiping her mouth under the service of the palace maid.

"Back to the eldest princess, this thing was made by our manager An personally and specially sent to you. The empress has not returned from the Palace of Prayer for Good Harvests yet." Mingyu replied gently and politely.

The eldest princess raised her eyebrows and nodded, "Sister Lan, there is such an ingenious slave."

After saying that, he knocked on the table helplessly to attract the attention of the little palace maid.

A hint of wind finally started to shuttle through the palace walls, bringing a luxurious coolness.

Concubine Lan came back from the Palace of Prayer for Good Harvests and heard that the eldest princess had been here. He quickly changed his clothes and rushed to the eldest princess's courtyard impatiently.

"Your Majesty, please stay..." An Xiaoshan blocked Concubine Lan.

"Little Anzi has something to do. It's not easy for the eldest princess to come here. I haven't seen him for a long time. ..." Concubine Lan stopped and looked at An Xiaoshan and said.

"Since the empress and the eldest princess haven't seen each other for a long time, are you going to hug the quilt at night? How about taking a bath together?"

An Xiaoshan said and took out a box, which actually contained two pieces of pink soap that looked very kawaii.

"It's so cute. What is this? Is it one of those doing business?" Concubine Lan touched the soap and picked it up and smelled it. There was a faint floral fragrance.

"This thing is called soap. It is used for bathing and cleaning the body. Please try it with the eldest princess and you will know." An Xiaoshan said.

Concubine Lan was absolutely obedient to her now. She believed whatever she said and immediately hurried to find Princess Dachang.
