The sun was setting slowly outside, and the maids and eunuchs in the East Palace walked softly until the Crown Princess came back with a huge team. The big Shuang'er on duty outside immediately came up to greet her and said softly: "Slave, please see the Crown Princess. The Crown Prince is here today." I came back early, but I looked quite tired. After returning to the palace, I went to rest in the house, and the slaves were careful not to disturb me."
Upon hearing this, Chang Luohua ordered the people behind him: "Everyone, please disperse. Don't make any noise."
Except for a few personal ones, the palace maids and eunuchs behind them dispersed in all directions, each with their own positions and showing rules when marching. Chang Luohua led Chang Luohua when he was stopped by Liu Jin as soon as he arrived at the door: "Slave, please see the Crown Princess. Servant just now." When I came back, I saw that there were a few more ice mirrors placed in the room. The cold was a bit heavy. You are pregnant and it is not good for you to go in suddenly and catch the cold. If there is nothing important, please wait until His Highness wakes up before reporting to you."
Chang Luohua stroked his belly and said, "Okay, but as the sun goes down, some of the ice in the house will be removed. Being greedy for cold is not good for my health."
Liu Jin bowed and agreed, and Chang Luohua turned around and left to rest in a nearby room. She had just returned from Kunning Palace, and Queen Ma and Yu'er took her and talked a lot.
After a while, Zhu Biao woke up quietly in the room. He pulled Nuanyu, who was fanning at the side, into his arms. He took a few mouthfuls of rouge regardless of her screams, then got up and put on another set of light clothes and stayed at the house. Liu Jin came in to wait outside.
Zhu Biao finished dressing, took another sip of herbal tea and said, "Is the Crown Princess back?"
Liu Jin served the newly made pastries and said: "The Crown Princess came back from Kunning Palace half an hour ago. Seeing that it is not so hot anymore, she specifically asked to remove some of the ice cubes in the house, for fear that Your Highness would be greedy for cold."
Zhu Biao smiled and nodded and said: "Get rid of them all. Please invite the Crown Princess to come over for dinner. I am also hungry."
Liu Jin immediately agreed and left. Zhu Biao picked up a piece of quite delicious jujube cake and handed it to Nuan Yu: "You have been very busy recently. How is your daily life, and you haven't been taught a lesson by the princess?"
Nuanyu happily took the jujube cake and said, "Slave, please be good, so you won't be lectured by the Crown Princess."
Zhu Biao looked at Nuan Yu who narrowed her big eyes happily after taking a bite of jujube cake, Silly Nizi, even if your princess doesn't hate you, how can she like you so much? It's just for my sake to be more lenient with you.
Zhu Biao shook his head. He never thought that he could make all the women in his harem fall in love with each other. That was not in line with human nature. Zhu Biao could only stay in the harem for such a short time. Whoever accompanied him more would have fewer people around him. , who can be willing to do so?
After a while, Chang Luohua came in, saluted Zhu Biao, sat aside and said with a bright smile: "Are you tired today? I should eat more food later. I have asked Xiao Zao Na to cook a pot of wild ginseng and black-bone chicken. Soup."
Zhu Biao stretched and said, "Okay, it's really time to make up for it. They say a good wife pleases the heart. The ancients never deceived me."
At this time, the dishes were brought out one after another and arranged neatly by the palace maids. Liu Jin and Nuan Yu came forward to serve the dishes. Chang Luohua took two bites of the pickled fish. The taste of pregnant women is so unique, but fortunately they don't like smelly food yet.
Zhu Biao looked at the bird's nest red and white duck southern hot pot, the roasted roe meat and deer tail dish, and a dish of stir-fried cabbage. It was delicious when paired with fine white flour steamed buns. The lunch meal was basically drinking, not to mention the big banquet. The food taste is average.
Chang Luohua now eats small meals frequently. After eating a few dishes he liked, he took the nourishing medicinal food and ate it in small sips. Zhu Biao asked Liu Jin to bring over a taste of wine stewed with meat and tofu.
After seeing that they were almost done eating, Chang Luohua said: "The Queen Mother called everyone in the imperial kitchen to reprimand her this afternoon. This is the first time I have seen the Queen Mother get angry."
Zhu Biao frowned when he heard this, and Chang Luohua continued: "After the banquet, the queen mother found that most of the dishes that were withdrawn were untouched. After taking a bite, she found that they tasted bad. Some dishes were not even cooked, which was obviously a perfunctory dish. "
Zhu Biao relaxed his brows after hearing this. He thought it was because the people in the imperial dining room dared to neglect the food in Kunning Palace. Banquets were always given in the palace. What's more, the skills of the cooks in the imperial dining room were only average. Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, they have not recruited any imperial chefs. Most of them are He was still the cook of the Marshal's Mansion back then.
"The Queen Mother also ordered a banquet to be held in the harem, and she had to taste all the dishes prepared first. She would never allow such a waste of food in the palace. Later, even the father sent people to ask, and the Queen Mother asked someone to reply. As the master of the house, she should support herself. If you are worse, you shouldn’t be picky, but when you support others, you should be rich and don’t make people feel disappointed.”
Zhu Biao nodded. Their family had never been very picky about food and drink expenses, but their food must have been carefully prepared. However, they did slack off when facing other people in the imperial kitchen. The ministers did not dare to be dissatisfied with the food in the palace, so they secretly He was lazy, and now he was discovered by Queen Ma, so he couldn't escape scolding.
Chang Luohua looked proud and proud, and Zhu Biao asked curiously: "Why are you happy that the Queen reprimanded them? Could it be that they still dare to neglect the meals in the East Palace?"
Chang Luohua said with bright eyes: "I'm just amazed at how heroic the Queen Mother is. I always thought that the Queen Mother was graceful and noble, but I didn't expect that she would be so majestic when she got angry. And didn't I say that I should learn more from the Queen Mother?"
Zhu Biao smiled and shook his head. The woman really did hold a grudge, but she just made a few casual remarks in Purple Mountain, and she still hasn't forgotten it. It's really funny.
Chang Luohua was not ready to let him go. He held his sultry belly and said, "A virtuous woman pleases the heart, and a beautiful woman pleases the eyes. If I, the Crown Princess, don't ask my mother to welcome Miss Li and Princess Gaoli, will I not be the Crown Prince?" Where is the virtuous woman in your heart?"
"That's all, it's better to let His Highness see you soon. The queen mother has already issued a decree. The Miss Li family will serve in Rudong Palace next month, and the third princess of Goryeo will enter the palace the next month."
Zhu Biao glanced at her and said, but he didn't shirk pretentiously. It was not good for these two to delay for too long. He had no shortage of women, but the forces represented by these two behind him also needed to be appeased.
Chang Luohua saw that Zhu Biao really didn't say a word, and his bright and charming face suddenly turned into a look of grievance. Zhu Biao had no choice but to say: "No matter what, I can't get past you. Your mother, queen, father, and emperor are all your backers. Why don't you still?" There is nothing to be afraid of, just take care of your baby with peace of mind."
Chang Luohua bit her red lips tightly after hearing this. What if she loses her husband's favor and is loved by her parents-in-law? After all, life is lived by the two of them. She is one month old, and she thought that she would take the initiative to ask for her mother's concubine. When welcoming those two into the palace, her husband should have more sympathy for her.
Zhu Biao waved his hand with a smile, and Liu Jin immediately led the palace maids and eunuchs out. He stood up, walked to the princess, bowed, pressed his forehead against her hair, and whispered softly: "Okay, thank you very much. The Crown Princess is so kind and kind. She is so sensible and open-minded that she will be a good wife and mother in the future. Please stop being angry, okay? I will accompany you for a walk."
