Don't help me, I can sit up by myself

Chapter 19

"To the emperor." Du Jiyan poured the wolfberry chicken soup into a cup.

"You don't want to go to bed, do you?" Shi Jing looked surprised. Du Jiyan was simply the strongest man in Yongfu Palace.

Du Jiyan didn't even explain, but carried the soup to the Taihe Palace.

Passing by the Imperial Garden, I saw Ming promised to swat butterflies in the garden. After the emperor summoned Ming to agree that night, Ming agreed to become more active. He wore clothes made of the fragrant cloud gauze newly awarded by the emperor and hung around the garden.

Du Jiyan lowered his head and quickened his pace, but was still bumped into by Ming Zhengxing.

"What are you going to do?" Ming promised, opening the soup cup and smelling it.

Before Du Jiyan could answer, he took a spoon and stirred it in the soup cup, then sat in the pavilion and drank: "I happened to be tired from shopping, and this wolfberry chicken soup smells good. I just happened to be very tired after going to bed. of."

If you go to bed once, you can speak for a year.

Ming promised to drink up the chicken soup quickly, wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, and threw the spoon on the plate: "This road is the way to the Taihe Palace. You are thinking of sending soup to the emperor, Xiaoxiao Xiu Nu, you have a lot of evil ideas, you can’t succeed in trying to steal our favor.”

Ming agreed and left to take a look at the sky. It was too late to go back to make soup, but he happened to meet Eunuch Gao again.

Eunuch Gao saw Du Jiyan from a distance: "Master Du is here, is he going to deliver soup to the emperor?"

"what……"

"Nothing to be embarrassed about. We all work according to our abilities. As long as the soup is well made, the emperor will also like it."

"Did father-in-law go to deliver the order? Who will go to bed tonight?"

"We haven't announced anyone yet, but Mr. Du has made the soup. Let's go to the Taihe Palace. It's also Mr. Du's heart." Eunuch Gao led the way.

One after another, beautiful ladies were punished. It is estimated that the beautiful ladies were very afraid of the emperor.

It's rare to find a bold person who dares to take the initiative to go to Taihe Palace.

Eunuch Gao really admired Du Jiyan's courage.

Du Jiyan followed him step by step, thinking in his mind that he had to summon Xiaodian.

I turned on the system and found that I had eighteen points.

"Xiaodian, I want to buy some soup."

"What kind of soup does the host want?"

"Just one...what men like to drink."

"The soup is ready. It costs five points in total."

Small power means fast.

Du Jiyan touched the soup cup. It was warm. The plate in his hand was obviously heavier. It seemed that the soup was ready.

In the Palace of Taihe, the emperor was fighting crickets with the King of Yue.

The Emperor was seventeen. The King of Yue was three or four years older than the Emperor, about 21 or [-] years old. He was the third son of the late Emperor.Ranked higher than the emperor.

The emperor said, my eldest brother was leading troops in the frontier and finally came back. He brought crickets from the frontier fortress. We have to have a good time. Not to mention that the crickets from the frontier fortress are big, scream happily, and are all black and oily. The fights were fierce and it was really fun and tight.

Perhaps because he was at the frontier, the King of Yue had darker skin. He was wearing a Li-colored robe and a jade belt around his waist. He stared at Du Jiyan with his eyes: "The Emperor has a new recruit, so I won't delay the Emperor."

The king of Yue was about to leave.

"Don't leave, the fight is not over yet." The emperor did not want King Yue to leave.

They have been fighting for half an afternoon, and the emperor is still very energetic.

"I will return to the frontier in two days. Next time I come back, I will bring some frontier stuff to the emperor." The King of Yue turned around and went to the Queen Mother's Palace.

Walking to the corridor, Eunuch Gao happened to be there, and the King of Yue asked: "Is there anyone who agrees with the emperor recently?"

Eunuch Gao bowed and said, "There are some new faces."

The king of Yue left.

This King of Yue didn't talk much, he came and went in a hurry, and often had a sullen face and didn't pay much attention to his servants. Eunuch Gao didn't want to communicate with him too much.

But I heard the emperor speak in Taihe Palace: "What are you doing here?" "Bring some soup to the emperor."

"What kind of soup?" The emperor lazily opened the lid of the cup. The emperor's meals are usually taken care of by the imperial kitchen. There are at least twenty or thirty dishes for each meal, such as Buddha jumping over the wall, poached tenderloin, tender chicken, anchovy fins, and Kung Pao hare. , grilled venison... what kind of dishes are the emperor has never tasted or seen? As expected, the emperor opened the lid of the cup and put it back: "Do you want to go to bed?"

"Slave... I don't want to."

"The tongue is not the heart."

"I really don't want you to... I'm just here to deliver some soup to the Emperor."

"Look at the soup you brought, and you said you didn't want to go to bed."

"The soup sent by the slave..." Du Jiyan opened the lid of the cup. My dear, what kind of soup is this? I don't know what kind of soup it is.

The emperor is always well-informed.

"This is dodder, walnut and pork loin soup."

The name of this soup suggests that you want to go to bed.

Xiaodian, Xiaodian.

You sure know what a nourishing soup for a man is.

Du Jiyan said that even if he jumped into the Yellow River, he wouldn't be able to escape.

Baba brought pork loin soup to the emperor.

"Why did you send me pork kidney soup? Is there any bad news in the palace? Does it mean that I am not good enough?" The little emperor stared at Du Jiyan seriously. It was related to his reputation, and he had to be careful.

"No."

"If you want to sleep with me, just say so. I'm not a helpless person, but your ambition is too obvious."

"Slave..."

"During the late emperor's dynasty, there was a woman in the harem who tried to win favor and drugged the late emperor's soup. She was thrown into the cold palace by the late emperor and never came out until she died. Didn't the nun of Yongfu Palace tell you about the power of this? "

"This slave...don't dare to drug the Emperor."

"This soup of yours is originally a medicinal diet, almost like medicine. The beautiful lady in front of me was forced to kneel in bed, but you still dare to recommend yourself. Not only did you recommend yourself, you were afraid that I was not good enough, so you brought pork loin soup. How can it be unreasonable, Du? Just saying.”

Du Jiyan knelt on the ground and mustered up the courage to raise his head: "Your Majesty, this slave brings soup. I really have something to ask of the Emperor, but I'm afraid that I won't be able to see the Emperor's face..."

"What's the matter?"

"I beg the emperor to favor you..."

"You also said you don't want to sleep with me." The emperor picked up the crickets sent by the King of Yue without looking at Du Jiyan: "I remembered that a few years ago, Eucommia ulmoides also joined a group of censors to impeach me for favoring Concubine Meng. , saying that Concubine Meng is a disaster, who would have thought that Eucommia ulmoides could raise a daughter so well. Du just said you are bold."

"This slave wants to ask for the emperor's favor, but not for myself."

"Are you asking for someone else? Who are you asking for?"

"To... Wei Xiunv."

"Wei Zhaoning?"

"The emperor knows her name, so he must have paid attention to her. Why didn't he ask her to sleep with him?" Du Jiyan asked.

The emperor also regretted saying he was bald. The man named Du thought he was pretending to be Wei Zhaoning.

The Queen seemed to be out of her mind every day, and the Emperor had no hope for the Queen's sister.

Unexpectedly, Du Jiyan came to be her lobbyist.

"Why should I summon her? Give me a reason. Don't say anything. She is the Queen Mother's niece and the Queen's sister."

"I have no reason, but I dare to make a bet with the emperor."

When he heard about the bet, the little emperor became interested: "How to bet, what to bet on?"
