My concubine is so good at curling

Chapter 205
Qiankun Palace.

Because the Lord Long Live is in a bad mood recently, no soup or snacks are seen, so there are far fewer court ladies waiting outside the Qiankun Palace, and the eunuchs guarding the gate have less chance to show their prestige to the court ladies and take advantage of them.

Today, when Chang Xi, who was on duty, saw a court lady jogging over with sharp eyes, he felt happy and was about to lecture her—the emperor is busy!What is your identity and status, see you!Give money and don't pass the word!

Unless given too much.

Concubine Zhang Xian, Lu Ronghua, Guo Xiaoyi and Ma Ronghua were among those who gave a lot.

"Eunuch Changxi, this is a dish made by Concubine Shu herself. May I please send it to the emperor? By the way, let me say that Concubine Shu misses the emperor."

"..."

As soon as Chang Xi heard the word Concubine Shu, Chang Xi withered.

Concubine Shu's maid!Not only can't extort benefits, but also serve carefully.

The emperor is usually in a bad mood, and the people in front of the imperial court are in a difficult situation. If you want to move rescuers, you can only bring concubine Shu. Later, you don't need concubine Shu to complain when you stop the dishes made by concubine Shu. Dayton board.

Thinking so, Chang Xi smiled as if he had received a thousand taels of reward:
"Miss Zhenqiu, don't say that, what can you do, this is the duty of a slave, bring it quickly, the concubine Shu made it with her own hands, don't let it cool..."

In the harem, there are many concubines who say that they wash their hands and make soup to show their sincerity. It would be good if they can follow them to the kitchen and give a few pointers, but they will not handle the spoon themselves.This is already very touching - the kitchen is full of fireworks, how can the delicate and expensive masters stay there.

"Oh, this soup is so heavy that it's a bit difficult for me to hold it. Miss Zhenqiu sent it all the way... What kind of soup did Concubine Shu make?"

Zhenqiu said that it was not soup.

Chang Xi: "What is that?"

Zhenqiu showed a distressed expression: "It's the Buddha jumping over the wall made by the empress."

Chang Xi immediately fell silent.

Even in the imperial dining room, Buddha jumping over the wall is an out-and-out dish. It takes a lot of effort and time. It needs to prepare all kinds of ingredients in advance and then cook them slowly. There was no pressure cooker in ancient times, so it can only be burned continuously with firewood , keeping the same heat.

Of course, in the palace, manpower is not a problem.

But the concubines in the harem brought food to the emperor, all of which were light food, such as snacks or stewed soup, which was light and easy to eat...how could they send a big dish?What does this have to do with sending roasted whole lamb?Let Your Majesty eat it! ?

"This... the servant will send it in."

Outside the corridor in Qiankun Palace, there is a long table.

There were four small and exquisite soup cups and food boxes on the table, and Chang Xi put the Buddha Jumping Wall sent by Concubine Shu to the side, and the huge monster immediately compared the four soup cups next to it to be weak, pitiful and helpless.

Seeing this, Liang Yuyin wondered, "It's not time for dinner yet."

"This is the Buddha jumping over the wall presented to the emperor by Concubine Shu."

"..."

In this Qiankun Palace, there is another person who is speechless because of Jiang Xian.

Liang Yuyin bowed into the door to pass on the news. Unsurprisingly, the emperor heard that the food was brought by Concubine Shu, and before he could speak, a smile stained his eyes, making the cold face of Hell, who was facing the government, soften in an instant. Come down: "Bring it in, it's rare for her to bring me soup, why is no one here? You go and send Concubine Shu to accompany you."

Xie Che is very confident.

Bringing him soup, I must have missed him.

"Yes."

For a moment, Xie Che saw Liang Yuyin coming in tremblingly holding a huge pot.

Xie Che: "What kind of soup did Concubine Shu cook?"

Liang Yuyin: "If you go back to the emperor, it is the Buddha jumping over the wall made by Concubine Shu herself."

Hearing this, Xie Che was also silent for a moment.

But soon, the love brain got the upper hand, and he ordered: "Bring another long case... Forget it, this is not a place to eat, so pass the meal in advance." : "You go and find out whether this Buddha jumping over the wall is really made by Concubine Shu."

Xie Che didn't think that Jiang Xian really did it himself.

But he didn't intend to blame her for it, just teasing her - he felt that Concubine Shu also wanted to joke with him, otherwise why would she send a cup of Buddha jumping over the wall?
This matter is easy to investigate, Bihua Palace only guards against other concubines, not the emperor.Jiang Xian never cared about the eyeliner placed by the emperor in Bihua Palace, anyway, she had nothing shady, which saved the suspicious emperor from guessing.

The result was beyond Xie Che's expectation.

This Buddha jumping over the wall was really made by Concubine Shu herself.

Of course, the eunuch will do the job of watching the fire. After all, if you have to stay by the side for four hours and just stare at the fire, then it's not a call, it's a waste of time.But she handles the ingredients, stews and seasons all by herself, without letting others interfere.

So Xie Che couldn't help but worry.

One is to worry about whether the taste of Buddha jumping over the wall will be too hard to swallow

Second, he was worried that Xian'er would make demands that he could not satisfy, so he set up this dragon battle.

After a while, Concubine Shu arrived at Qiankun Palace on a chariot.
-
Jiang Xian entered the room unimpeded all the way. Xie Che saw her, and without waiting for her to salute, he personally helped her up, held her pair of catkins, and reproached her affectionately: "Let such beautiful hands wash their hands and make soup. It's simply a matter of cooking the crane and burning the piano...why do you suddenly think of cooking?"

Jiang Xian thought about it.

With just two seconds of hesitation, Xie Che saw that she was making up words: "Don't make up words to coax me, I must listen to the truth."

No matter how top-notch an actor is, it is difficult to pretend to be perfect to the person next to his pillow for ten years.

And as the emperor's seniority got longer, Xie Che's vision of seeing people was more accurate than before. With the ebb and flow, he could easily see the clues that Jiang Xian started to make a big deal for the boss.

"The truth is, I think I've been too lazy recently."

Xie Che:?
The emperor was really speechless this time.

Xie Che: "Everyone in the harem can use this word to describe themselves, but you can't."

Hearing this, Jiang Xian sighed lightly.

In my previous life, I worked in an enterprise, and the company adopted the "bottom elimination system". Even if the performance of employees is qualified, as long as they are in the bottom 5% of the total employees, they will be transferred, demoted, salary cut or fired.Everyone is very curly, which is to compare with others invisibly.

But what a slow-paced life this harem leads!

Promotions such as seniority and qualifications within the establishment do not seek merit but seek no fault. In this atmosphere, Jiang Xian can only compare with herself.

The earlier concubines took the noble concubine as an example, but it turned out that Concubine Shu was the winner.

After tossing about many things, the mainstream voice in the harem gradually became envious of Concubine Zhang Xian and Chen Guiren.

"What's the use of comparing with others? I want to compare myself. What other concubines can do, I want to do. What other concubines can't do, I have to do."

Jiang Xian raised her small face and looked at him firmly: "Your Majesty, how can I make you value me more? How can I make you happy?"

What else does the boss have to do!

Just tell her!
Making Buddha jumping over the wall by yourself is a good example of looking for something to do without trouble. Regardless of whether the boss likes it or not, it takes a lot of time to make it. A cup of Buddha jumping over the wall is very big. .

"..."

What Jiang Xian didn't know was that, being stared at by her face up, her heart and eyes were full of feelings of how to please herself...

A bit above.

Xie Che was stared at for a while, and finally couldn't help but stop talking: "You are already very important to me, and now I am... very happy."

Jiang Xian was even more at a loss now.

She hasn't done anything yet.

Xie Che helped her sit down and let her lean into his arms.

"Since Zhao'er was born, I have accompanied you to watch the changes of the four seasons. Have you found something you like to do?"

Jiang Xian gets dizzy when she hears similar questions.

The emperor is good at everything else, but always wants her to pursue the meaning of life.

That is a luxury for migrant workers, but now she has money and leisure, but she can’t find it everywhere—she hopes that her children will be safe and happy, but that is not her dream, they have their own future to fight for, and she will Doing her best to smooth the way for them was her responsibility as a mother, not her ideal.

Seeing her distressed face, Xie Che knew that he hadn't succeeded yet: "It doesn't matter, we still have a lot of time, let's rule it out first...Xian'er, you don't like cooking, do you?"

"I don't hate it either."

"That's why I don't like it," Xie Che sighed: "I'm so bored that I have to work hard on delivering soup. It seems that there is nothing you want to do in the harem. It doesn't matter. Let's look at other places, will it be okay? Something you're interested in."

After that day, the emperor decreed to search all over the world for women or women with advantages.

As long as you have a skill, you can enter the palace and get together with Concubine Shu.

Of course, in order to protect the reputation of this woman, she is not allowed to stay overnight in the palace under the age of 30. She lives in a uniformly arranged blue glazed tile house.

The move caused some criticism in the previous court.

But Xie Che is no longer the new emperor who has just ascended the throne. After repeated purges, he has hidden the right to speak in the previous dynasty like the previous emperor.The world only knows that Concubine Shu is different from ordinary women. She is keen to learn, but she is not good at poetry or painting.

In the past, there were favored concubines who dominated the harem, but at most other concubines were oppressed.

Concubine Shu was favored, but even the courtiers were affected.

The reason is the same. With the help of the top special assistants, after Concubine Concubine Rong fell out of favor, the number of papers reviewed and orders issued by the emperor has doubled.

You know, Xie Chezai was a very diligent emperor in the first place.

After half a month of busy work, Jiang Xian felt that as a senior assistant, she should have subordinates.But Xie Che didn't want other female officials by his side, just to provoke criticism from the courtiers, and according to Yan Chi's old rules, eunuchs couldn't read...

In the end, it really made Jiang Xian think of a way.

So after school, Zhao'er no longer has to go to the Shufei brand cram school, but instead takes a part-time job at his father's Qiankun Palace.

Originally, the second prince also had this opportunity.

Although Xie Che felt that three years old was the old man, and Sheng'er was not a candidate for the successor, he did not despise his second son, but tried every means to get him to find the job he wanted to do in the future—to make him serve Yan Chi with what he had learned. A way?
Interest is the best sir.

Whether it's leading troops to fight wars, building water conservancy projects, or going to Dali Temple to settle cases, as long as Sheng'er is interested, he can be cultivated.

Xie Che knows that he is busy with government affairs and cannot take good care of every child, but at least he will give them an equal chance to compete and choose equally.

The second prince shy away from this opportunity, Guo Xiaoyi urged him to beat him, but he refused to listen.

The tall Xie Sheng is no longer as thin as he was when he was a child. Guo Xiaoyi hoped that he would be as assertive as a man, and he has achieved this—but, his idea is to not work and lie down. day.

The emperor felt pity and helplessness for him.

On the contrary, the third prince, Xie Qi, has been the follower of his two elder brothers since he was a child. Ma Ronghua only hopes that he will grow up safely, and that he can support him if he doesn't die young.Ma's family was originally attached to the Rong's family, but the Rong's family collapsed, and his family's loss of support was not as good as before, and Ma Ronghua didn't dare to think too much about it.
-
Jiang has been in the palace for 12 years.

Xie Che fulfilled his promise. Ever since he made it clear that there was nothing Jiang Xian was interested in in the harem, he not only recruited women for her, but also kept her by his side at all times.

The two emperors and concubines worked all year round, causing the civil and military officials of the previous dynasty to suffer unspeakably.

The emperor's favorite saying is: "Concubine Shu hasn't said goodbye yet, Ai Qing often says that she has enough energy physically and mentally, and I'm afraid she's just joking with me."

Isn't it impeachment that only uses women's words, and the rooster is the morning, so that women can steal power and mess up the government?

Doesn't it mean that women are weak and can't be used much?

Why can't you beat the woman?

In terms of staying up late, the ancient people really didn’t necessarily lose to the modern people. Thinking about getting up at two o’clock in the morning to prepare for the court, and having to queue up at the gate of the palace, you must not be late.

The only problem is that Jiang Xian is the most curly group among modern people.

Now with the blessing of the system, it is even more powerful.

The civil and military officials were so ashamed by the ridicule that they had no choice but to roll up their sleeves and open the book.

The promised confidante misled the country, and the emperor was so fascinated by her mindless politics... Why is it different from what I imagined?
This is not quite what Xie Che imagined.

Facing the endless work, his beloved concubine seemed to have endless vitality. She sat in the Qiankun Palace every day, her face radiant and radiant. Xie Che often had a lot to say to her. She looked over with a smile and forgot.

He couldn't help feeling annoyed: "I failed to change you, but you changed me."

"Your Majesty, don't underestimate yourself. I have been changed a lot."

At least, in her previous life, she never thought that she could enjoy material comforts with peace of mind. Even if the annual salary is high, she still has a strong sense of "unworthiness"-she wants to save all her income to improve her ability to resist risks.

It was the emperor who brought a load of good things to her and urged her to use them.

The imperial meals are indeed delicious, good fabrics and quilts are comfortable to use, and the spacious and bright room is also decorated to make it feel like home.

[Accompanies the driver for an hour, Gongdou points +10]

[Let the emperor reprimand important ministers for you, Gongdou points +30]

Because there is no wind and waves in the harem, the only big points that Jiang Xian can get every three years are the draft.

[On the premise that the host is favored, the emperor did not choose anyone to enter the palace during the draft, and the palace fighting points +1000]

Ever since the emperor and concubine Rong broke up, there has never been a new concubine in the harem.

The sign left during the draft is also to indicate marriage to the clan.

This point, although one thousand Gongdou points can be accepted with a smile, it was not proposed by Jiang Xian, and never mentioned it, it was Xie Che who did it naturally.

When asked by the courtiers, he was too lazy to respond, so when he asked the prince Xie, he answered seriously: "I already have three healthy princes, and the Xie family has never had many heirs. I am very satisfied, and I just want to focus on the government affairs On top of that, no matter how many newcomers are recruited, there is no time to pamper them, instead it feels like suffering.”

"Every three years, you can take the most beautiful young girl into your palm, but the emperor calls it a crime?"

"You do not understand,"

Xie Che snorted, and the conversation was full of satisfaction: "If you really like a woman, going to someone else's palace is suffering."

"..."

Xie Wangye is really not envious at all.
