Concubine Wen Xi who traveled through time

Chapter 12: Does the emperor pay for meals?

"Ge Ge! Ge Ge!" Song'er ran fast, "Shu Mulu Ge Ge has been accused of marrying Prince Gong! We will be married next spring."

After returning home, Wen Xi called people to pay attention to the situation of Shu Mulu's mansion, and it turned out that Ni Chu'e was the one who bestowed the marriage first.It's just that she actually proposed marriage to Chang Ning.Wen Xi remembers that Chang Ning is 26 years old this year, only two years younger than Kangxi, Ni Chuer is only 14 years old, and will only be fifteen next year...Chang Ning has few concubines, no concubines and side Fujins, and his original wife Fujin Nala's family died two years ago, and only gave birth to Gege, who was taken into the palace by Kangxi to raise him.There are also three sons, all born to concubines. Poor little girl Nichu'er, she is about to become a mother when she enters the house.

Zhu'er smiled and said: "Don't worry, Ge Ge, it's Niu Hulu's turn soon!"

"You girl!" Wen Xi couldn't help spitting, "You have nothing to hide."

"Gege, there's a message from below that Du He from the outer court came to ask for an audience." Meier came in to report, "It seems that she is very anxious, and I'm afraid something serious may happen again."

Wen Xi came to the main hall, sat on a chair, and ordered Du He to come in.

Du He was indeed impatient, and hurriedly called thousands, "Greetings to Princess."

"What happened to the Xiangyuan Building?" Could it be someone who can't afford to be offended?Wen Xi thought to herself.

"It's not that something happened to Xiangyuan Building, it's because the one who came with Prince Gong that day has arrived at Xiangyuan Building, and I sent a message that he was waiting for you in Chunying Pavilion, an elegant room last time."

See if you can't go like this...

Those guarding outside the Chunying Pavilion were still the fair-skinned eunuch in his thirties, and a few guards with familiar faces, or the imperial guards.

"I don't know if Eunuch Liang is Eunuch?" Wen Xi asked politely.

"It's the miscellaneous family. The master is still waiting for you inside, please—" Liang Jiugong said with a smile, his tone was a little more polite than last time, and his demeanor was a little more respectful.

It was still the same place as before, nothing had changed, Kangxi stood by the window with his back to Wen Xi.At this point, it is indeed impossible to pretend to be ignorant anymore, Wen Xi could only politely salute, kneel down, "Your Majesty, Wanan."

Kangxi turned around, with a hint of teasing in his tone: "Why don't you pretend to be stupid today?"

Wen Xi was calm and composed, "Since the emperor is visiting privately in micro-clothes, you are pretending, how can I not pretend?" It is you who are wearing ordinary clothes and want to hide your identity, no wonder others.According to the ancestral system, Manchus always called themselves slaves in front of the emperor, but Wenxi couldn't say it, so he called "I". Fortunately, seeing Kangxi's appearance, he didn't care about anything.

"You are telling the truth." Kangxi seemed to be in a good mood, "Get up."

There was some smell of wine and food in the private room, presumably having had lunch here, so he asked casually, "How long has the emperor been here?"

"After the court, I left the palace at 09 o'clock and arrived at Xiangyuan Tower at 30 o'clock." Kangxi said very precisely.Converted to the time of future generations, it is 10:30 to leave the palace, and [-]:[-] to arrive at Xiangyuan Building.It's early afternoon (one o'clock in the afternoon).

"It's been more than an hour, can the wine and food in Xiangyuan Building still enter the emperor's mouth?"

"It's better than Yuchu's." Kangxi spoke highly of it, and his tone was calm.

"The emperor has won the award."

Kangxi looked at Wen Xi, and suddenly asked: "I heard that you are good at cooking? Did you learn it for a while not long ago?"

The news is really well-informed. I must know that she went to Biliuzhuang to learn cooking before the draft. Damn, there are few secrets that can be hidden in front of the emperor, "Yes. People who are always greedy learn to cook Art is no big deal."

"Really?" The smile on Kangxi's face became more and more intense, and his eyes narrowed, "I don't know... who said the phrase 'to grab a man's heart, you must first grab his stomach'? "

Wen Xi couldn't help but be surprised... There is Kangxi's eyeliner in Niu Hulu's mansion!I just don't know who it is?Is it the people around the old lady Guarja, or the people around her?Apart from her and the Guerjia family, she brought Song Zhumei, and the mother Fu and Rui beside the old lady must have been among the five people... Then she calmed down, fortunately she went in and out of the space in absolutely no way. In a human environment, or in a wine cellar, or on your own bed for dinner, the secrets of space will not be revealed, and nothing else matters.It's not a big deal that the emperor has his eyeliner in the courtier's mansion again.

Immediately, Wen Xi said: "The emperor really listens to everything."

Kangxi didn't want to continue to pursue the answer, and said: "I want to try two dim sum."

Wen Xi replied: "The cook of Xiangyuan Building will probably satisfy the emperor."

"I want to know whether your cooking skills can satisfy me."

·····Wen Xi is depressed, she can't wait to roll her eyes, don't think that my old lady wants to follow you in everything!So he said with a smile: "The prince has to pay for drinking, but I wonder if the emperor will pay for meals?"

Kangxi choked as if he had eaten chestnut cake. Maybe it was because he had heard Wen Xi speak differently from ordinary people before, so he quickly recovered his calm and self-possessed demeanor, "Just do it." No matter what To pay or not to pay is vulgar.

"Okay, Your Majesty, wait a moment."

Liang Jiugong and the guards outside stood quietly outside, wondering if they could hear the conversation inside?Wen Xi glanced at Liang Jiugong, and said with a smile: "Director Liang, please go to the downstairs counter to check out for your master." Seeing someone coming upstairs, Wen Xi had no choice but to call him Manager Liang. There is no problem, "Hey, Mr. Liang, what are you watching me do, you can swallow an egg with your mouth open!"

"...Gege??" Liang Jiugong stuttered

Wen Xi smiled and raised her voice and asked: "Is there any other question for the manager? Could it be that you think that the master of your family doesn't have to pay for meals?" She deliberately spoke loudly, so that not only the people in the room could hear it, but even the neighbors could hear it. It's in my ears.

Liang Jiugong has never seen such a strange thing in his life, and he held back for a long time before he said, "How could it be? Gege was joking, and the miscellaneous family will go down and pay the bill."

"Hey, don't forget, your master ordered two more pastries, and you have to pay for them too!"

Actually...Wen Xi doesn't know how to make pastries, but cakes, but there is no egg beater, making it by hand is too tiring, Wen Xi is lazy.

The number one chef in the kitchen, Master Lu, came from the palace. He looked over 50 years old and asked politely: "Master, what does that distinguished guest want to eat?" Knowing what an honorable person that distinguished guest was, he naturally didn't dare to neglect him at all, and cooked a table of dishes with all his strength, for fear that Kangxi would be dissatisfied in any way.

Wen Xi rolled up her sleeves and said, "Master Lu, help me get some lotus seed powder, and then I'll call someone who burns the fire carefully."

"Okay——" Looking at the posture, Master Lu naturally understood that the owner was going to cook for himself.

Seeing that there was no one around, warm and nimble hands reached into the large water tank for live fish, while covering up, he moved out a big fat and tender herring from the space, still on the case, and slapped it to death with a sharp knife, Wen Xi Getting ready to make a fish cake.The fish in the space is delicious but not greasy, the meat is delicate and has no fishy smell, and it is delicious when used for frying and frying.Fish cakes are a bit complicated. If you want to entertain that person, bring out ordinary pastries. What if the Manchus can't stomach that person and refuse to leave?

The second pastry is made of tea cakes. I have eaten too much fish and meat, so I should eat something light.I secretly went to the matcha powder in the space and made a second dessert with space water.
