After the fall of the country, the crown princess was spoiled by the new emperor

Chapter 77 Silently dig a hole for Shen Huaijiao

Jiang Ronghe was so happy that he would be able to have a full meal soon, and while Wen Xiao was sleeping, he called Lin Xiang over and asked her to quietly prepare the condiments.

At night, Wen Xiao didn't enter the harem, and was discussing government affairs in the Anzheng Palace. Jiang Ronghe prepared a supper and delivered it, and then got off the small sedan chair, and met Shen Huaijiao. Seeing that she was also carrying a food box, she smiled knowingly.

Shen Huaijiao was exquisitely dressed, Bu Yao had a lot of hairpins, collars and bracelets, shining under the palace lanterns, which showed her hard work. Compared with her, Jiang Ronghe, who was dressed in homely clothes, looked stingy and shabby.

"I actually want to be with my sister, it's really fate." Shen Huai smiled skinny, and sneered at Jiang Ronghe's attire.

Jiang Ronghe wished he could laugh out his big teeth: "Yes, yes, fate." You didn't cry enough last night, did you?

"What did sister do?" Shen Huaijiao stared at the food box in her hand.

Jiang Ronghe opened the lid generously: "It's just a bowl of porridge."

"Vegetable porridge?" Shen Huaijiao couldn't help showing contempt in her eyes, but said: "It's still my sister who is thoughtful, it's best to drink porridge at night."

The two of them smirked and went back and forth carrying the food box. After seeing the ceremony, they went to the compartment on the other side and put the food box down.

Although the ministers dared not look directly at them, they could catch a glimpse of them from the corner of their eyes.

Shen Huaijiao prepared a bowl of Jiubao Soup, a plate of Pea Yellow, a bowl of Silver Chicken Noodle Soup, and only that Jiubao Soup, Ji Ya Haizhen used a lot, very hard.

Jiang Ronghe raised his eyebrows lightly, without saying a word, he generously put his porridge aside, and then left.

Wen Xiao, who was discussing with the minister, raised his eyes to watch her go out, then continued to listen to the minister's words. Wang Chun took a drug test, found a gold-painted tray, put all the supper on it, and then brought it over.

"After investigation, a total of eighteen dams need to be repaired. According to Gongcao's calculations, the required silver is 200 million taels."

"The previous dynasty did not strengthen the dams for several years, and now many dams are on the verge of collapse. If they cannot be strengthened before the rainy season, there will be endless troubles."

Wen Xiao picked up the vegetable porridge and took a sip, looked at the book spread in front of him and remained silent.

The country he took over is a mess, and it costs money everywhere.

"Dial money, be sure to strengthen all the dams before the rainy season. If any dams break and suffer disasters, I will definitely be held accountable."

"Yes." Gongcao's people hurriedly took away the notes.

Outside the hall, Shen Huaijiao watched Jiang Ronghe leave, and couldn't help but ponder in her heart. When she returned to Xuanming Hall, she asked, "That day when I was eating in Jiaofang Hall, I saw wild vegetables on the table. Tonight is another bowl of vegetable porridge. Does the emperor like it?"

"The people in Changxin Palace didn't mention that the emperor likes wild vegetables, but the servants have heard that the emperor ordered people to dig wild vegetables and send them to Jiaofang Hall, so that Jiehua could make wild vegetables."

Wild vegetable corn bread?

Shen Huaijiao couldn't figure it out more and more: "The Dingyuan Marquis's mansion is rich and noble, and they bring their cooks with them when they march and fight. How could the emperor know something like wild vegetables and steamed buns to feed pigs?"

"I don't know." Song Nanny carefully guessed: "Your Majesty, do you want to check carefully?"

Shen Huaijiao thought for a while: "Look it up, I always feel that the queen mother is not sure about the emperor's preferences, we still have to check it out to be at ease."

"Yes."

Early the next morning, Shen Huaijiao went to Changxin Palace and personally helped the Empress Dowager to dress up.

The queen mother was very relieved, and she couldn't help praising: "It's still you who are polite and sensible, and came so early to help Ai's family to freshen up."

"This is what a concubine should do." Shen Huaijiao carefully put on the hairpin for her: "It is a concubine's good fortune to be able to serve in front of the queen mother."
