"Tell your prince, if he dares not come to see me today, he will not even think of seeing me again in the future!"
Zhu Siyi changed her normal attitude, turned cold, and left without hesitation after saying these harsh words.
On November 11, he returned to the palace study to report the matter to Yan Xing. He couldn't bear to say: "Your Majesty, are you going too far? Today is the eldest lady's birthday after all, and I just saw her dressed up carefully, why not——"
"No need." Yan Xing asked the lights to be turned on at eleven o'clock and continued to immerse himself in painting. On the painting paper, a woman in red with no facial features jumped out. "Since you are grounded by His Majesty, how can you go out at will? A gentleman should be cautious."
Shiyi stepped back and was about to notify the kitchen to bring dinner to the study. Before leaving, he was stopped by Yan Xing: "Shiyi, do you believe that people have past and present lives?"
Can the prince ask such an incredible question? What happened to him recently?
Eleven replied respectfully: "Back to your lord, I don't know much about past and present lives. If your lord is interested in this aspect, why don't you find a Taoist master to talk about it in detail after the confinement is lifted?"
Yan Xing smiled calmly, as touchingly as the spring rain moistening things: "This is what I have in mind, let's go down."
The eleven-foot-two monk was confused and ran away.
Yan Xing put away the smile on his face and carefully finished the painting. In the study, wherever he looked, there were all kinds of study treasures given to him by Zhu Siyi.
He didn't understand what was wrong with him recently. He had frequent nightmares. Even the night before and last night, he dreamed that Zhu Siyi had become the Queen Mother. He even remembered the title title clearly.
Not only that, he also became the powerful regent of the Qin Dynasty, and the court was in turmoil.
It's a pity that in the dream, he actually hated Zhu Siyi when he was forty years old, just because she poisoned his first wife. In addition, after gaining power, the two of them were greedy for power and drifted away from each other, even at the cost of tearing each other apart. Shameless.
His first wife? The woman whose face he can’t see clearly is his first wife?
According to the current trend, his unpopular fiancée has been calculated to become his royal sister-in-law. He and Zhu Siyi no longer have any worries, and they can get married openly and abandon worldly views.
How could Zhu Siyi marry Yan Xiu? Shouldn't his first wife be Zhu Siyi?
The painful and painful feeling lingered in his heart and spleen, and even made him extremely resistant to Zhu Siyi, so he casually declined her birthday invitation under the pretense of a pretext.
He can find countless reasons and ways to make amends afterwards. As a little girl, she can be happy again just by coaxing her.
It was no longer appropriate to worry about this matter. Yan Xing took a sip of ginseng tea to suppress the depression in his heart.
…
Yan Xiu walked into Changle Palace as he wished Sijia the day when her "menstrual period" would be over.
Changle Palace heard that he was coming for dinner and hurriedly arranged the dishes.
Unexpectedly, the new and beautiful palace maid Zhu Ya, carrying a small bag of things, mysteriously walked into the small kitchen and ordered: "Don't use the salt provided by the palace for cooking tonight, use mine."
Cook: "Is the thing in Miss Zhu Ya's hand also salt?"
Zhu Ya nodded: "Not bad."
The cook sneered, "Don't all the salts in the world have the same taste? What's the difference between the salt in your hands and the salt in the kitchen? Don't delay our work, girl. You and I can't bear to delay His Majesty and Jieyu's dinner." rise."
But Zhu Ya insisted on putting the salt into her hand: "This mine is very different. It's a hundred times more delicious than your coarse salt. If you don't believe me, why don't you try it?"
She is now the maid in charge of Changle Palace and the celebrity around Jieyu. The cook does not dare to offend easily, isn't it just a taste of salt? This little thing won't waste much time.
The cook perfunctorily dipped her fingertips into it to taste.
Zhu Ya silently counted three times in her heart. After three times, the cook looked at her with bright eyes and said excitedly: "Where did you find this salt? It has no bitter taste at all!"
"It's a long story. You can use this to make dinner for Your Majesty and Jieyu first." Zhu Ya carefully handed the fine salt to the cook, "If you can't control the amount, just eat it in small quantities and cook as you go. .”
The cook took the fine salt and said in her chest, "Girl, you can rest assured that my cooking skills will definitely make Your Majesty and Jieyu full of praise!"
Her talent and taste are beyond ordinary people, and with the help of such a good thing today, there is no need to worry about the rewards coming to the two masters after they are happy.
Some are happy and some are sad.
The lie that Zhu Sijia told casually came true today, just at the moment when Yan Xiu wanted her to sleep with him.
The first day of her menstrual period was the most difficult for her. Not only was her back sore and weak, but her whole lower abdomen also had a sinking and tingling feeling, and the pains came one after another without any pattern.
Yan Xiu taught her how to play chess step by step.
At first I wish Scarlett could bear it, but by now, her face was pale from the pain and she was sweating profusely.
"Dang——" there was a clear sound.
Zhu Sijia failed to hold the white chess piece in her hand firmly and fell from her fingertips to the chessboard, disrupting the layout of Yan Xiu's black chess piece.
Yan Xiu had been immersed in teaching her how to play chess. When he heard the strange noise, he realized that the opponent was in something wrong.
"Scarlett!"
This was the first time that Yan Xiu made her scream so urgently. He carried her into the bedroom and lay down: "What's wrong? I've already sent someone to call the imperial doctor. Please bear with it for now."
Zhu Sijia was so painful that she burst into tears, her hands and feet were so cold that she could hardly speak: "I, I am fine, my concubine has not passed her menstrual period yet, your majesty is frightened."
"It's not over yet?" Yan Xiu covered her with the quilt, put her hands in his big hands, and gently rubbed them to spread the heat, "It's already the eighth day, how can it still be like this?"
Zhu Sijia thought silently in her heart, I'm afraid I'll keep you naked for seven days, but Your Majesty said: "I don't know about my concubine, but you know about my body."
This time the pain was more irritating than before, perhaps because God was punishing her for her crime of deceiving the emperor. Zhu Sijia curled up into a ball in pain, and her nails dug into Yan Xiu's palm and broke the skin.
Yan Xiu was painfully pinched by her, but he didn't care so much. Seeing her suffering, his heart almost jumped out of his chest, and his temples were soaked with sweat.
He gently kissed Zhu Sijia's forehead: "Keep it patient, the doctor will be here soon."
"Jieyu, please have tea."
At the critical moment, Zhu Ya stepped forward and appeared in the bedroom with a cup of longan and ginger tea. She originally wanted to take the painkillers she had brought with her through time and give them to Zhu Sijia, but she was afraid that she would not be able to make them in the future and would cause trouble. The calamity of death——
So she soaked the painkillers in hot soup and brought them to Zhu Sijia, hoping it would work.
Yan Xiu took the tea from her: "I'm here."
After a cup of hot soup, the imperial doctor also arrived. After careful diagnosis and treatment, he really had no clue, so he prescribed Zhu Sijia a nourishing prescription.
Zhu Ya's soup really worked. After a moment of taking it, Zhu Ya's abdominal pain symptoms were relieved a lot, and she even had the strength to get out of bed to eat.
Yan Xiu frowned: "Is it possible?"
Zhu Sijia nodded with conviction: "I'm much better, Your Majesty, let's have dinner quickly."
The real highlight of today is the dinner.
Yan Xiu and Zhu Sijia had never thought that food could be so delicious, so they sent the cook to ask for a big reward.
The cook confessed everything. Yan Xiu looked solemn and asked Zhu Ya to accompany him to the imperial study.
Zhu Sijia waited anxiously. Salt is the most important thing in a country. Zhu Ya’s move...
Two hours later, Zhu Ya not only escaped unscathed, but also brought back a lot of rewards and moved them into Changle Palace: "Jieyu, it's done."
This was her first proof to Zhu Sijia.
In the imperial study room, Yan Xiu was not happy because he learned the method of refining fine salt. He repeatedly asked Hu Shunhai: "Tell me again!"
Hu Shunhai trembled and said: "The six brides chosen by the Queen Mother for you have all entered the palace."
