Learning the hardcore harem life of a princess

Chapter 26
At first Tantai Ziyu went to greet the Empress Dowager, which really made him sweat. Later, he tasted the steamed cake made by Tantai Ziyu, and knew that this kind of thing would really suit the Empress Dowager's taste.

But he also knew that the Queen Mother would not allow this little thing to influence her all the time, but at first it was just too embarrassing. Sooner or later, the Queen Mother would send someone to learn it, but he didn't expect it to be so soon.

"If I don't teach you, is there any way you can deal with the Queen Mother?"

"I can only delay for you for a while, but it will also displease the Queen Mother." Ji Yuan said solemnly.

"Seeing how worried you are, steamed cakes are not a top secret. I also know that I won't have this kind of thing for a long time, so I'll teach you as soon as I teach you." Tantai Ziyu didn't expect such a small matter to make Ji Yuan so dignified. .

"Really? Then what will you do with the Queen Mother in the future?"

Tantai Ziyu took a breath and thought for a while: "Then is there any way you can prevent me from paying my respects?"

"Occasionally, you can think about it, but for a long time, you can't."

"Forget it, I'll figure it out on my own. The desserts I can make can be changed by the Queen Mother every day for two months. Steamed cakes are nothing in it."

Ji Yuan frowned and looked at her, as if he wanted to see through her.

"Empress, Mrs. Meng asked to see her, and even brought the imperial doctor here." Xia Ying came in to salute.

Tantai Ziyu knew that it would not be so easy to get away with it.

"Let Mrs. Meng go back, just say that the queen is ill and no one will be seen." Ji Yuan said directly.

"Wait a minute." Tantai Ziyu immediately lay down on the bed: "Xia Ying, come as planned." She said calmly.

"Yes." Xia Ying was a little embarrassed, but she still walked over and pricked a short silver needle on the side of Tantai Ziyu's shoulder.

"What is this?" Ji Yuan looked at them worriedly.

"It will be fine if the emperor just looks at it." Tantai Ziyu resisted the pain, who doesn't feel pain from acupuncture?

Tantai Ziyu was beaten so hard by the emperor that she couldn't get out of bed, many people didn't believe it, the queen mother went to ask the emperor again and didn't say anything, naturally not many people dared to inquire.

Meng Qingman was naturally one of them who didn't believe it, and she brought the imperial physician here to show her concern for the queen.

"The concubine sees the emperor, sees the empress." Meng Qingman muttered to himself seeing Ji Yuan's gloomy face, and didn't know what was going on now.

"Excuse me, what's the matter for you to come to see the queen?" Ji Yuan said with a cold face, after all Tantai Ziyu said he was the one who beat him, if he was happy here, no matter how he looked at it, it would not be appropriate.

"The concubine heard that the empress was unwell, so she brought his imperial doctor to see her." Meng Qingman did not dare to say that the empress was beaten by the emperor.

Tantai Ziyu looked at Meng Qingman, although he was polite, but somewhat aloof: "You came to see Ben Gong's joke."

"How dare a concubine." Meng Qingman looked at Tantai Ziyu's pale face, thinking that she would not really be beaten by the emperor.

"It's fine if you don't dare. Since you brought the imperial physician here, let's take a look at it. An imperial physician is not at ease after seeing me." Tantai Ziyu looked very struggling.

Seeing her like this, Ji Yuan thinks that he really overthinks it. It's these people's luck that Tantai Ziyu is not looking for trouble, but what will happen if she does?
He suddenly felt that this matter seemed good. The women in the harem had been idle for a long time, and they had been firmly controlled by the queen mother. Not what he wants to see.

Why didn't the imperial doctor know what Mrs. Meng meant, but now that the emperor was here, he didn't dare to be presumptuous, so he knelt there and carefully felt Tantai Ziyu's pulse, and he was sweating first.

"How is the empress's health?" Meng Qingman was a little uncertain when he saw the doctor's expression.

"The empress's pulse condition is vain, her qi and blood are deficient, she needs to be taken care of carefully." The imperial doctor said in a panic, he felt that the empress was dying, but he didn't dare to say that.

Meng Qingman lowered her eyes and thought for a while, she didn't expect Tantai Ziyu to be really sick: "The empress must take more supplements, I will send some ginseng and astragalus later, so that people can take care of themselves." Make up for the empress."

Tantai Ziyu sneered in her heart, she came empty-handed when she came, but now she says she sent someone to send something, maybe she is not that sincere.

"How old is the ginseng?" Tantai Ziyu asked directly: "If it is less than a hundred years old, you can keep it for yourself. There is no shortage here in this palace."

Meng Qingman was choked by Tantai Ziyu, is there anyone so rude?

"There are two plants in my concubine's place that are nearly 500 years old, which are just right for the empress."

"Then send someone to deliver it later."

Ji Yuan held back his laugh, this Tantai Ziyu is really not polite at all.

"It's just that the Empress Dowager is sick, and the snacks for the Empress Dowager will be cut off. It's better to teach the ministers and concubines, so that the concubines can perform filial piety to the Empress Dowager on behalf of the Empress Dowager." Meng Qingman felt that he had spent all his money and spent all his money 200 years of ginseng, this request is not too much.

"Oh, you don't have to worry about this, the Empress Dowager has already sent a cook to learn."

Meng Qingman left annoyed and came to Taixi Palace. She gave away two nearly 200-year-old ginseng for nothing. The key is that the emperor is there, and she has already said what she said, so it is impossible not to give it away.

"The queen is really ill?" Meng Qingman looked at the imperial physician in disbelief.

The imperial doctor was a little panicked: "Basically, he is terminally ill."

Meng Qingman became happy when he heard this, thinking that once Tantai Ziyu died, the position of queen would be vacated, and the harem would be full of excitement.

Tantai Ziyu was sure that Meng Qingman had left, so she asked Xia Ying to pull out the array quickly, and rubbed it there for a while because of the pain.

"Aren't you avoiding me a little when you do this kind of thing?" Ji Yuan looked at Tantai Ziyu's painful grinning expression, which was very rich.

"Why do I avoid you?"

"You will make me think that you are a deep-minded and calculating person."

"Thinking deeply, what's wrong with being good at calculating? What's wrong is nothing more than calculating others to do bad things, and I just thought about it more simply." Tantai Ziyu said indifferently.

Ji Yuan nodded: "But as a queen, it's not good for you to blackmail Mrs. Meng with two ginseng plants."

Tantai Ziyu seems to have thought of it too: "Can ginseng really grow for 500 years?"

Ji Yuan felt that this didn't seem to be the key to the problem, he didn't know about it, it was just said by the person who paid the tribute.

"If it can really grow for thousands of years, how big will the reed head grow?" Tantai Ziyu is simply a curious baby.

"Forget it, I won't talk to you about this, I have another thing to tell you." Ji Yuan felt that he had to find out whether ginseng would grow for thousands of years.
