Chapter 290
Of course, the preserved eggs from Yunyang County are also sold in the capital.

The chief eunuch disguised himself specially, went to Chengyi Restaurant, put the preserved eggs he bought into a crystal clear jade plate, and quickly presented them to the emperor.

The emperor looked at the things on the jade plate and couldn't help laughing: "It's this thing that makes the people of my Dali country think about it day and night? I don't think there is anything strange about it. It looks good, but it doesn't As exaggerated as everyone says."

While talking, he even touched it with the golden chopsticks, and saw the thing shake slightly, it was really cute.

The chief eunuch was also flattering at this time: "This servant also thinks it's really exaggerated, why don't you try it first?"

The emperor responded, holding the chopsticks to put a piece into his mouth, but stopped in mid-air.

"Don't worry, the regent will enter the palace, and I want to enjoy it with him."

"By the way, there is Concubine Xiao Gui, let her come too."

When the chief eunuch heard the words, he was right and said cautiously: "The empress's side..."

"Don't be in a hurry for the queen. If I taste this food, if it is really delicious, you can bring another copy later, and I will enjoy it with the queen."

"It's the emperor, the servant will do it now."

Fei Chengsheng is currently in the Prince Regent's Palace.

The huge palace, without He Changxuan by his side, looks even more deserted.

He didn't like people hanging around, so the Prince Regent's Mansion only had two servants.

Just as he was about to go out, he hurried one of the servants in and said, "My lord, someone came from the palace and said that the emperor called you into the palace for dinner."

"Meal?"

Although Fei Chengcheng was a little puzzled, he still walked out.

Seeing him coming out, the chief eunuch hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness, this servant also came to invite you into the palace according to the emperor's order. Are you leaving now?"

"Ah."

He agreed with almost no hesitation.

It was only when he arrived in the palace that he discovered that the lunch set by the emperor was for him to taste preserved eggs.

"Prince Regent, you came just in time. I heard that this food was very popular outside the palace, and the common people liked to eat it, so I asked Eunuch Xu to get a copy and brought it into the palace. I thought that if there is a good thing, I can't enjoy it alone, so I invited you and Princess together."

Xiao Muyu looked at the regent in front of him, this was not the first time they met, but both of them were very calm.

Especially Fei Chengcheng, without even looking at her, he cupped his hands and said: "My minister, thank you Shengshang Longen, I have seen the imperial concubine and empress."

The emperor waved his hand, quite satisfied, and said to the two of them, "Sit down, you're welcome."

"This is a preserved egg from the Sincerity Restaurant. I wonder if the regent had eaten it before he left?"

Fei Chengcheng replied truthfully: "No."

"That's true. I heard that it takes more than [-] days to marinate the preserved eggs. I'm afraid the regent left before he left."

Fei Chengcheng's eyes darkened.

The emperor knew it a long time ago, so he just wanted to ask him, and he came to ask him about such details, not because he wanted to test it.

Xiao Muyu had long been tired of the emperor's temptations, and now she sat beside him and said coquettishly, "Your majesty, didn't you say you have lunch? All the concubines are hungry."

"Okay, okay, eat now."

After the emperor finished speaking, he took a piece of preserved egg with chopsticks and put it in Xiao Muyu's bowl. After Xiao Muyu thanked him, he ate the piece of preserved egg into his stomach.

When the queen heard that the emperor invited Xiao Muyu to have lunch together again, she was so angry that she smashed everything in the bedroom to pieces.

Everyone didn't dare to breathe a sigh of relief, and only carefully packed up everything after the queen lost her temper.

After the queen lost her temper, she felt much more at ease, and snorted coldly and said, "I thought that little bitch could stay in Yunyang County for a while, but I didn't expect to come back so soon."

Seeing that the queen had finished venting her anger, the mother next to her hurriedly said, "The emperor summoned her back, maybe he was afraid that he would make some trouble over there, and you know, empress, this concubine Xiao Gui never plays cards according to routine. "

After hearing this, the queen frowned slightly and said, "What do you mean by that Qin Zhiyi?"

Mammy hurriedly said, "I don't know."

"What are you afraid of? I won't eat you again. I'm just asking casually."

Just as he was talking, another little maid hurried in and knelt down and said, "Empress Empress, the emperor rewarded you with preserved eggs, which are very delicious. Let you have a taste."

The nanny hurriedly flattered her and said, "Look, empress, the emperor has tasted delicious food, and he didn't forget to give you a copy."

Seeing the maid putting a plate of preserved eggs on the table, she said without even looking at it: "When the emperor tastes delicious food, the first thing that comes to mind is Concubine Xiao. As for the empress, I don't mind eating it."

"The queen is so angry."

The moment the voice came, even the empress was shocked. As for the maids in her palace, they even knelt down in unison.

"Meet the Emperor."

"You all go down, I want to chat with the queen alone."

The queen squeezed the veil tightly, feeling a little apprehensive in her heart.

After all, she didn't know how long the emperor had been listening outside.

Fortunately, after the emperor dismissed the others, he walked directly behind her and held her in his arms.

"It's really good, Mi Er, why are you angry with me again? The reason why I didn't invite you to taste it together is because my queen has a body of golden branches and jade leaves. Of course, I have to taste these messy things from the people first. Let me taste it, if it doesn't taste good, wouldn't it make my Mi Er suffer?"

These words really sounded good, and the Queen's face immediately showed a hint of shyness.

"The emperor said that, the concubine can't bear it."

"There is nothing unbearable, you will always be my first priority."

After the emperor finished speaking, he looked at the preserved egg on the table again, picked up a spoon, scooped up a piece and fed it to her mouth: "Queen, try it, I will feed it to you myself."

When the queen heard this, she opened her mouth and swallowed the preserved egg, and her heart was sweeter than eating honey.

On the other side, after Fei Chengcheng left the Queen's bedroom, he walked directly outside the palace.

Unexpectedly, another nanny came to stop him halfway: "His Royal Highness, the old slave is with the Queen Mother. Presumably His Highness still remembers the old slave. The Queen Mother asked the old slave to invite the Regent to have a cup of tea."

Fei Chengcheng glanced at the nanny in front of him, and then said softly: "What if the king doesn't go?"

The nanny's face remained unchanged, and then she sneered and said, "The empress dowager had expected it a long time ago and asked the old slave to give this to the regent, saying that the regent would definitely go with the old slave after seeing this thing."

After finishing speaking, she offered a jade pendant with both hands, Fei Chengcheng's eyes turned cold when he saw the jade pendant.

While taking the jade pendant, he strode towards the Yi Nian Hall where the Empress Dowager was.

Everything that happened here was seen by a little eunuch.

The little eunuch hurried to the bedroom where the empress was, and when he reached his destination, he knelt down with a plop and said, "My Majesty, as you expected, His Royal Highness the Regent did not leave the palace directly, but followed the mother-in-law by the empress dowager's side." Went to the Palace of Yi Nian."
