The Salted Fish Empress Dotes on the Harem

Yangrong Hall.

Shen Bochen looked at the letter in his hand and frowned.

The letter reads:

As my father said last time, the empress sent two gentlemen with strong martial arts. This is the empress's grace. Please treat the gentlemen well. In order to repay the grace of the empress!My father likes wintersweet the most, and the wintersweet in the palace is very beautiful, but it is a pity that it is midsummer, and I can't fold a branch to send to my father, so I draw a picture of wintersweet made in the palace.All is well in the palace, don't read it!

Shen Bochen looked at the freehand wintersweet that was sent along with the letter. The plum blossoms bloomed vividly in the white paper, as if they were about to come out.

After refolding the letter and putting it in the envelope, Shen Bochen ordered in a deep voice: "Send the letter out, and there is one more thing for you to do!"

Han Mingde bowed his body, and immediately said, "The slave takes orders!"

In the evening, Jin Miao, Jin He and Su Quan divided a basket of green tangerines from Lin Cairen into three parts, one for snacks, one for food, and the other for cutting. The slices are ready to be dried and used.

The three of them cleaned up together, but it was also very happy.

Zhao Nuoqing wanted to help, but the three of them refused to allow her to do anything, so she could only hug Fubao and watch them work boredly.

The summer is rainy and rainy, and the daytime is still cloudless and sunny. In the evening, the sky is covered with dark clouds.

Afraid of rain at night, Jin Miao and Su Quan put the sliced ​​green oranges in the small kitchen in the back hall.

In a blink of an eye, the sun went down quietly, and the evening breeze made people feel very comfortable. Zhao Nuoqing sat in the pavilion with Fu Bao in his arms and was unwilling to go back. Jin He had no choice but to serve dinner in the pavilion. .

At this moment, there was a sudden shout from outside: "The emperor is here!"

When everyone heard about it, they rushed to the door to greet him, and saw the emperor in a bright yellow dragon robe, walking in with a majestic figure.

Everyone greeted the emperor hurriedly, before Zhao Nuoqing knelt down, the emperor stepped forward in three steps and helped him up, "Qing'er, don't be too polite!"

After finishing speaking, he looked at Jin Miao and the others again, "All of you are excused too!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Zhao Nuoqing stood at the side in a dignified manner, and said with a smile: "The emperor is coming, why don't you let me know in advance, and the concubines are ready to pick him up!"

With a smile on the corner of Shen Bochen's mouth, he said, "Qing'er blames me for not coming at the right time? Then I will leave now!"

After saying that, the emperor really turned around and wanted to leave, Zhao Nuoqing hurriedly stepped forward to stop her, with a flustered look, he stepped forward and hugged the emperor's arm tightly regardless of etiquette, and said coquettishly: "Where is the concubine saying?" Did you say that? Now that you’ve come, how can you just leave? No way!”

After finishing speaking, Zhao Nuoqing said to Su Quan: "Su Quan, lock the door and see how the emperor wants to go!"

Everyone in the courtyard secretly covered their mouths and laughed, Su Quan knew that the master was joking, so he didn't move.

Seeing this, Shen Bochen couldn't help laughing, pretending to blame and said: "What's the matter with you! Be careful to make your palace people laugh!"

Saying so, but the emperor's hand did not move.

Instead of letting go, Zhao Nuoqing hugged him even tighter, "No way!"

Looking at her bright face, the emperor always felt at ease, but now that she was so lively and lovely, he felt even more joyful, so he stopped joking.

When he came in just now, he saw her sitting in the side pavilion, so he asked, "Have you had dinner yet?"

Zhao Nuoqing nodded, "Has the emperor used it?"

Shen Bochen shook his head, "I only used some snacks, what food do you have here?"

Zhao Nuoqing took the emperor's hand and came to the gazebo.

The emperor looked at the porridge and side dishes in front of him, and said, "You just eat these?"

Zhao Nuoqing smiled, "Eat less in the evening. Your Majesty, don't think it's just porridge and side dishes. After eating it, your stomach feels comfortable at night. If your stomach is comfortable, you can sleep well at night!"

Shen Bochen nodded. In fact, his own dinner would be lighter, but even if the other concubines didn't eat much, they would ask the imperial dining room to cook a lot of meals to show their status.

This matter is very wasteful, but the ancestral rules are there, and he can't withdraw the dinner of the concubines in the harem, otherwise, if it gets out, the world will laugh at him as a majestic Dazhao Kingdom, and actually wants the concubines in the harem to cut down on food and clothing!

Now seeing the two dishes in front of Zhao Nuoqing, she felt that she was very real and not vain at all.

The emperor lifted up his clothes and sat on the stone bench. Zhao Nuoqing hurriedly asked Jin Miao and Jin He to add bowls and chopsticks to serve the emperor.

After taking a sip of the warm millet porridge, the emperor said softly, "Do you have something to say to me?"

Zhao Nuoqing raised his head suspiciously, looked at the emperor, "No!"

Shen Bochen frowned slightly, raised his hand and tapped her forehead lightly, feeling quite sad and angry about her misfortune.

"Fu Meiren was imprisoned by me, don't you know?"

Zhao Nuoqing suddenly realized that he thought that the emperor came this time to inquire about the letter, but he didn't expect that it was to pay the beauty.

Today I suddenly heard that the concubine's younger sister of the empress is going to enter the palace, and she was so worried about the future that she put the matter of paying the beauty to the winds.

Now that the emperor suddenly mentioned it, she still hadn't reacted for a while.

After reacting, she saw her eyebrows arched and the corners of her lips raised.

"Oh~ I see, the emperor is here to ask for a concubine, right?"

After finishing speaking, she suddenly stood up, bowed her knees to the emperor, and said with a smile: "I thank the emperor for making decisions for my concubine and sister Xu! It's a pity that there is no wine here, otherwise my concubine will definitely toast you three glasses !"

The pavilion was lit, and the orange candlelight was reflected in her eyes, like stars in the dark night, which made people very excited.

The corners of Shen Bochen's mouth rose slightly, and suddenly he pulled it into his arms. Zhao Nuoqing exclaimed, but his hands did not dare to push his chest hard. Said: "The emperor! They are watching!"

Hearing the emperor's voice sink slightly, he said in a deep voice, "Who dares to look at me?"

Sure enough, Han Mingde, He Suquan and the others all turned around.

Tonight, the emperor will stay overnight in Lingyun Pavilion for a spring night.

Outside, Han Mingde and Su Quan were guarding outside the hall, they saw Han Mingde frowned slightly, and asked with a serious expression: "Did you tell Zhao Cairen about today's letter?"

Su Quan shook his head hurriedly, "Master has the kindness of knowing you, and I will definitely not betray Master. Moreover, I know that the letter..." Su Quan turned his head and glanced at the room where the lights had already been extinguished. The sleeping hall, and continued: "The master inside wants it, so I don't know how to say it!"

Su Quan listened and nodded in satisfaction, "It's considered that you have some skills, the master told you before that the way to survive in this palace is to be sincere to your master, and this master, who is in the whole palace, has only One!"

"That is our emperor!"

Su Quan got up immediately, and replied respectfully: "I will remember Master's instruction!"

As soon as the voice fell, the candles in the room were lit up.
