Chapter 88 Love Poetry (1)

I don't know how long it took, but Ersen stood beside him and couldn't stand it any longer. Regardless of the danger of Jiaorong holding a kitchen knife in his hand, he stepped forward again and persuaded him, "Oh, little ancestor, please take a break. Just let the old minister do it, if what you make is really hard to swallow, it is useless to bring it in front of the concubine Yi."

Jiao Rong was unhappy when she heard this, but she couldn't deny Er Sen's words, she really overestimated herself, just tried the knife twice, and found that she couldn't use it at all.

So, Jiao Rong took a few steps back, obediently handed over the kitchen knife, and said with a bitter face, "Then remember to cook better."

As soon as Ersen took the kitchen knife Jiaorong was holding, Jiaorong turned around and left the imperial dining room, whispering arrogantly: "Cooking is not fun at all, but I'm still better than Fulu."

Ersen looked at Jiaorong's back, sighed lightly, looked at the lotus root that had been cut into pieces by Jiaorong, and resigned to his fate to cut it again.

Not long after, this plate of sweet-scented osmanthus lotus root from the hands of the imperial chef was brought out.At this moment, Jiaorong was sitting outside the dining room, holding dogtail grass in her mouth and looking at the stars. She turned her head and stood up when she heard the footsteps. When she saw the steaming sweet lotus root, Jiaorong's eyes lit up. The tip of his nose moved slightly, and he couldn't help but praise: "Mafa is still delicious."

Ersen smiled kindly, and said softly: "It's still early, why don't you try it first?"

Hearing this, Jiao Rong shook her head, and said firmly: "This is a dish for Concubine Yi, I will naturally not get involved in it, if I want to eat it in the future, I will come to the imperial dining room to ask Mafa for it. "

After saying that, Jiao Rong rarely smiled, and said with satisfaction: "Then I will go back with the vegetables first, and come to see you when I have time."

Jiao Rong turned her head and was about to leave, but at this moment, Er Sen suddenly stopped her: "Wait a minute!"

Hearing this, Jiaorong turned her head in doubt, and asked without knowing why: "What's wrong?"

Er Sen's expression gradually sank, his wrinkled face was full of vicissitudes, he walked down the steps a little clumsily, walked slowly to Jiao Rong, and said softly: "Rong'er, your business in the palace, There are a lot of Mafa who are not convenient to tell you, but Mafa knows everything you have done."

As he spoke, Er Sen's eyes darkened a bit, he licked the corners of his lips, and his voice was full of the old man's earnestness: "Take care of yourself, don't let Mafa worry, don't do dangerous things, Mafa and your Ama I don't have any requirements for you, I just want you to be safe and happy, okay?"

Hearing this, Jiaorong's smile gradually subsided. She looked at Ersen, felt the emotion conveyed by Ersen's eyes, and didn't know what to respond for a while.

Does Mafa know all the things she did?Jiao Rong didn't dare to think about it.But what if he knew?Since she was a child, she has not been a girl who can be controlled by her family. She is unrestrained and has a very idiosyncratic way of doing things. These are things written in her bones that cannot be changed.

After a long time, Jiaorong looked away, nodded slightly, and said softly: "I see, I'm going back, the dishes should be cold later."

Afterwards, Jiaorong hurriedly turned around and left, and almost tripped over the threshold when she reached the door.

When Jiaorong returned to the banquet, Yinti and Yinreng were taking turns reciting the poems they had learned these days to the Empress Dowager and the Emperor.Jiaorong walked up to Concubine Yi with sweet-scented osmanthus lotus root in her hand, and she couldn't believe it when she heard Yinti's familiar voice in the middle of the hall.

She gently placed the dishes on the table in front of Concubine Yi, and with a smile, she said softly: "Madam, this is sweet-scented osmanthus lotus root made by Mafa. Those main dishes are too greasy. Eat some candied lotus root to relieve the tiredness."

Concubine Yi looked at the candied lotus root on the plate, and immediately showed a surprised expression. She looked at Jiaorong, and couldn't help but raise her voice a little: "You asked the imperial dining room to make it?"

In this regard, Jiaorong nodded lightly, and said in a soft voice, "Slaves' Mafa craftsmanship has always been unmatched by anyone, and you should try it quickly, Your Majesty."

Concubine Yi looked at the candied lotus root on the plate, her expression became extremely complicated for a moment.Although it was her birthday banquet today, the emperor hardly paid attention to her except for rewarding her with so many things, and the concubines around her were not familiar with Concubine Yi. Talking together, Concubine Yi can't help feeling restless and lonely.

So much so, when Concubine Yi saw that Jiaorong specially found the sweet-scented osmanthus lotus root made by the imperial dining room for her, her eyes turned red immediately, and a rush of heat surged in her heart, so she couldn't help but grab Jiaorong's wrist, With her lips parted, she didn't know what to say: "Jiao Rong..."

Concubine Yi's emotional tenderness was naturally seen in her eyes, she kept a bright smile on her face, gently shook her wrist, and said softly: "Young lady, eat quickly."

Concubine Yi nodded vigorously, and quickly picked up the chopsticks obediently.Jiaorong also deliberately walked up to her, and pointed to a piece of unremarkable lotus root at the end of these candied lotus roots: "Although this piece of lotus root is not very pretty, it was cut out by the servant herself!"

Hearing this, Concubine Yi obviously smiled softly, then picked up the piece of lotus root that Jiao Rong had cut, and slowly put it into her mouth under Jiao Rong's expectant gaze, then pursed her lips and said with a smile: "good to eat."

It was obviously just cut into pieces, and the specific production process and materials had nothing to do with her, but when Jiaorong heard what Concubine Yi said, she still couldn't help laughing brightly, like a child being praised. purely.

Afterwards, Concubine Yi ate and ate, when she suddenly remembered something, paused for a while, and remained silent for a while, then looked at Jiaorong again, and said gently: "When I was not in the palace, there was someone in my family who was with you. The older brother, he loves me the most on weekdays. A few years ago, when I celebrated my birthday, he also made sweet-scented osmanthus lotus root for me. Although the little boy made it very rough, I was really happy. "

Speaking of this, Concubine Yi paused slightly, and looked up at Jiaorong, "Because people in my family only know how to raise me as a lady of the family, asking me to be dignified and decent in every way, but they never cared about what I like to eat, What do you like to wear?"

Listening to Concubine Yi's words, Jiaorong's eyes felt a little distressed.Concubine Yi smiled reservedly, and said again: "So Jiaorong, it is really my luck to meet you in the palace. I no longer treat you as a maidservant. In my heart, you are my own sister. You It is the person who regards me as a family member, and I will remember it in my heart."

At this moment, Jiaorong's heart, which had been covered with cold all year round, didn't seem to have warmed up anymore. She stared deeply into Concubine Yi's eyes, with a calm smile on her lips.
