Yipin Tianxia

Fei Zhi's prayer was probably not heard by gods and Buddhas all over the sky, and the situation of Nianfu who was preparing for the battle in the kitchen outside was really not good.

Holding the lottery assigned to him, Nianfu asked the eunuch surnamed Guo to argue, "I came early, why did you give me such a late signer? Isn't this a first-come-first-served basis?"

Eunuch Guo squinted at her, and said coolly, "How do you know that she didn't come first? You thought you came early, but they have come to say hello many days earlier. Come on, there is someone who offers dishes to the queen mother." The opportunity is good, just wait slowly. If you can’t make it in time, you will not lose your share of the reward in the palace. It’s a good thing to receive a reward without working. It should be enough."

Hearing Nianfu made him angry, but he knew the reason why little ghosts are difficult to deal with, so he didn't argue with him, just smiled and took out a silver coin from his bosom and quietly handed it over, whispering kind words, "Please help me. Isn’t there some people who haven’t come yet? Let me borrow a stove first, and when they come, I’ll get out of the way right away, okay? In fact, Director Yu of your imperial dining room still has a lifespan…”

But Eunuch Guo's face sank, "What are you doing? Why! Do you want to openly bribe this Eunuch? Take back the money quickly, I can't see that you are quite crooked at such a young age! Manager Yu has always been upright, how could he recognize a villain like you? There are some people in this world who just don't have any shame, and even after a few face-to-face encounters, they use other people's names to bluff and cheat, it's the extreme brazenness!"

His loud yelling immediately attracted everyone's attention, either looking contemptuously or contemptuously at the scolded girl.I am so ashamed of Nianfu that I can't wait to find a crack in the ground and get in!But he could only swallow his breath, and waited aside.

After watching this good show, a servant girl dressed as a palace servant gave Eunuch Guo a knowing smile and walked away quickly.

Not long after, she came to the inner kitchen of the palace where the emperor, queen mother and other dignitaries cook, and whispered a few words beside a tall slender woman.

"Well done, let's go." The woman turned her head with a sneer, and it turned out to be Lu Ying.

Come and not reciprocate indecently.If you dare to throw her bookmark in front of her like that, you have to be prepared to bear the price of the result!

At this time, Zijiang came forward and said. "Girl, everything you want is ready."

"Okay, let's get started."

Lu Ying walked to another small kitchen with a solemn expression, closed the door, and saw a big iron cage already in the kitchen, with iron plates under the cage.There are dozens of big white geese that are alive and kicking, washed white, and under the cage, a charcoal fire has been set up.

Taking a chopstick to taste the taste, Lu Ying asked someone to carry several barrels of prepared sauce and put them in every corner of the cage, and then spoke with a sullen face. "ignition!"

As the charcoal fire burned, the white goose in the cage couldn't stand up.They flopped and walked around, but no matter how they walked, everywhere was hot, so they had to stretch their necks to drink the sauce.

But the more he drank the sauce, the thirstier he became, and the heat under his feet became hotter. The white geese screamed in pain and slammed into the cage with all their strength.want to escape this desperate situation.But the iron cage is strong, so how could they escape?

Even Zi Jiang couldn't stand it anymore.But Lu Ying still stared closely at the painful white geese, observed their scalded flippers, and ordered, "It's not enough! Pay attention to controlling the heat, don't burn them to death all at once, try to keep it as long as possible."

yes.Zijiang and the helpers agreed tremblingly, but they felt a little pity in their hearts.

Isn't this way of death a bit too cruel?

Today is a rare sunny day in winter, watching the bright sun rise little by little, Empress Dowager Mu is in a very good mood.

The concubines and officials' wives who came to the palace to pay their respects said auspicious words, "After all, you are the empress dowager, the blessing is different. Even God is very open, and wants to add luster to your future."

Although she knew it was flattery, the queen mother was still very happy to hear it.Even Mrs. Tan, who hadn't seen her for a long time, didn't raise her eyebrows or raise her eyes like before, and smiled at her gently, and said a few words.

Mrs. Tan was overjoyed, and hurriedly sent some small needles and threads she had made.The Queen Mother wanted to show her younger brother face, so she also praised her a few words, and also gave her a pretty good reward.

None of the wives present could not wink. They knew that although the Empress Dowager was very dissatisfied with Mrs. Tan because of the matter of County Lord Ruian, after all, Mrs. Tan married Ping Guogong with her consent.After venting her anger, the queen mother still wanted to give her three points of face, so everyone tactfully helped to hold the stage, and then brought the topic to Duke Ping, who was going to Xishan for recuperation, and Princess Chang, who was about to return to Beijing.

When mentioning Princess Changguo, the Queen Mother sighed slightly, "Our princess has always been the most capable, but it's a pity that the son-in-law's health is not very good. This time I have to let the Tai Hospital take a good look at it when I return to Beijing. If it doesn't work, I will send it off Go to Xishan and take care of him with his uncle. Otherwise, they have not even had a child in these years of marriage, which really makes Aijia feel at ease."

Busy and clever, she stepped forward to persuade her, "You don't have to worry too much about the empress dowager, the princess and the son-in-law are still young, and they will have children sooner or later. By the way, I heard that the princess has already returned to the imperial court, so I should be able to catch up with you a year ago." ?”

"Yes. I have already sent someone to deliver a letter to the palace, and that girl also said that she would give Ai's family a surprise. Really, it's enough for her to come back properly. What more surprises do you want?"

Although the Empress Dowager scolded, who couldn't see the joy inside and outside the words?So the crowd hurriedly spoke auspicious words again, which made the queen mother smile again, and then the topic gradually involved who was sensible and who was mischievous among the children of each family.

Just to be sensible, the best example of "returning evil and returning to righteousness" in the capital today is Mr. Guan Dagong from Zhenyuan Houfu.

A lady said to Mrs. Guan, "Young Master Guan Hou's family is really sensible. Last time when our master was a guest, he said that the fish ball he ate was filial to your son. He boasted for a long time when he came home."

Another lady said, "Since my old man came home from his official position, he has been able to paint a few strokes, but ordinary framers are not satisfied with the decorations. In the end, it is your grandson who helped, and asked Mr. Su's disciples to mount a picture." Answer. The framed effect, even a layman like me, feels much better than before."

Mrs. Guan and Mrs. Guan present here tried their best to hold back their smiles without showing their teeth, but the faces of the young and old were almost blooming.

Hearing what they were talking about, the Queen Mother suddenly remembered something, "I said I wanted to see the picture of Magu's birthday present in your house, but did you bring it here?"

"Brought it!" Mrs. Guan hurriedly held up the painting herself, unfolded it for a look, and everyone praised it again.

Mrs. Guan smiled sweeter, but Mrs. Guan was very unconvinced.I thought that when I look back on my birthday, I must ask my grandson to draw a better picture and frame it better!

It's just that no one noticed that when the Empress Dowager's eyes fell on the face of the Ma girl in the painting, there was a touch of surprise and complexity almost imperceptibly.And Aunt Shanyin who was beside her was even more shocked and stunned.

How...how could it be so similar?

"Hey, look, does this Magu look a bit like Concubine Zheng?" Suddenly, a concubine noticed something, pointed to the painting and asked with a smile.

Mrs. Zheng hurriedly stood up and apologized, "I dare not take it seriously, but it was painted after a folk girl, and I dare not offend the imperial concubine."

The queen mother in the picture is her. If you want to say that the Magu who pays birthday wishes looks like Zheng Guifei, isn't that just a joke?

It was Concubine Zheng who smiled and helped her out, "There are similarities in people and similarities in things. There are a lot of people who look alike in the world. But speaking of it, this girl's eyebrows and eyes really look a bit like me." .”

Even though she was dissatisfied with her daughter-in-law's limelight, in front of outsiders, Mrs. Zheng still had to put the overall situation first, and helped her daughter-in-law smooth things over, "How can a folk girl be blessed with the blessing of a noble concubine? I'm afraid it was the champion who deliberately The painting is more beautiful, but I don’t want to offend the imperial concubine.”

Next to her, there was a wife who had a good relationship with Zheng's family and said, "Yes, the imperial concubine is so graceful and luxurious, how can it be compared with ordinary women?"

The Empress Dowager Mu looked at Concubine Zheng who was smiling brightly and charmingly, but the corners of her lips showed a little displeasure, and she said calmly, "If you talk about elegance and luxury, the harem should put the empress as the number one."

As soon as this remark came out, all the concubines and wives were shocked, and the lady who spoke even regretted her slip of the tongue, and hurriedly knelt down to admit her mistake.Concubine Zheng also felt ashamed, but the queen was secretly happy, thinking that the queen mother still defended herself.

She wasn't Gao Xian's first wife, she was remarried after Gao Xian ascended the throne, and she was more concerned about political factors, in terms of love, she was no match for Concubine Zheng, and she knew how to behave, so the queen mother always treated her well.

After being suppressed, the Empress Dowager calmed down again, and said leniently, "It's harmless to joke occasionally, as long as you remember the superiority and inferiority in your heart. You don't have to be polite, just keep talking and laughing to be lively."

Even so, with such a beating, who would dare to be presumptuous?Everyone was careful, the atmosphere of talking and laughing was not as good as before, a little stiff.

Fortunately, at this time, I heard the report from the palace man, "The emperor is here!"

So all the female relatives hurriedly got up and stood according to their ranks, knelt down to salute, while the Du Queen Mother sat there without moving.With a little pride, he waited for the most honorable and powerful man in the world to come in and pay his respects to her on her birthday.This is the greatest pride a woman can have in her life.

Gao Xian laughed and said, "Empress mother, don't bother to talk to people, the time is coming, I'm here to pick you up to receive the gift. And Shouning and the other girls have already prepared a show to make you laugh, Let's go now."

Um.Empress Dowager Mu supported her son's hand in satisfaction, and went to accept the worship of the officials.

But in the kitchen at the other end of the palace, Nianfu looked at the rising sun, but his heart felt cold.

In her situation, she died before she left school, right?Seeing the delicious dishes coming out of the kitchen one after another, she didn't even touch the side of the stove.

Thinking of the encouragement given to him by those merchants in Beishi before coming here, as well as Fei Zhi's ardent hopes, Nian Fu really felt sorry for them.

That nasty dead eunuch, why did you punish her like this?
