The Pastoral Medicinal Fragrance of the Imperial Concubine

Chapter 614
After the noodles were all soaked with sesame oil, Leng Ping put the noodles into the pot again. This time, after the noodles boiled, she took them out and put sesame sauce, pickles, chili oil, and shallots on them.

"Mrs. Hao, our mother..." Luqin couldn't help reminding again when she saw that the two bowls of noodles were filled with chili peppers.

"The Queen's taste has not changed for 20 years, so it's okay to change it occasionally!" Leng Ping laughed.

Luqin had no choice but to comply, put two bowls of noodles on the tray, followed Leng Ping and carried them out.

As soon as Leng Ping and Lu Qin left, the two court ladies behind them couldn't help but whispered: "What is the origin of this lady, to make this kind of food for the empress to eat!"

"Yeah, look, boiled noodles, pickled vegetables, sesame paste, chili, none of these things can be eaten by the empress on weekdays!" One of them said, and couldn't help but picked up a chopstick of leftover noodles and looked at them. Leng Ping put pickles, sesame juice, etc., mixed it, put it in his mouth casually, and said vaguely, "It's just us who are slaves... Ah, sister Shan, please taste it, this taste..."

Seeing her like this, the maid who spoke first couldn't help but pick up a chopstick and ate it. She just chewed it twice in her mouth, and the two of them were shocked and speechless.

They have never eaten such delicious noodles, and the prawn and long beard noodles made by Yushanfang have no such taste!
Empress Hui has been waiting in the flower hall for nearly half an hour without any impatience.

"Your Majesty, here we come!" Lu Qin came in with a tray and put the noodles on the table.

Empress Hui looked at it and couldn't help being stunned.There are bright red chili oil and green shallots on the surface, which is pleasing to the eye, but no matter how delicious the noodles are, they are just noodles...

Leng Ping stepped forward to sit down and said with a smile: "This is called hot dry noodles, because the pickled vegetables are not dried radish, so it's not very authentic, but the taste should be pretty good, ma'am, try it!"

While talking, Leng Ping took out chopsticks to demonstrate, mixing the sesame juice, pickles and red chili oil on the noodles.

Empress Hui smiled calmly, stopped Luqin who was going to mix noodles for her, took her own chopsticks and mixed them slowly, and tried to take a bite.

The chili is very spicy. After taking a sip, Queen Hui felt that the pores of her whole body were opened. She couldn't help but want to spit out the noodles. At this moment, she felt that the noodles were very strong, and the sesame sauce was very fragrant. , plus the pickles, there is a freshness in the greasy...

"Your Majesty, hurry up and drink some water!" Lu Qin stepped forward and said hastily.

Empress Hui waved her hands, chewed slowly, and finally swallowed it all. She gasped and said, "It's really delicious and very spicy. I've never eaten such special noodles before!"

Leng Ping also took a bite, and smiled while eating: "The empress is in this deep palace, with so many people watching her every word, deed, and every action, she can't feel depressed, and eating spicy food can promote Blood circulation, after eating, the empress must have a feeling of liver and intestines dripping, which can help to comfort the depression in the empress' heart!"

Empress Hui was startled, and said with a smile: "You are special, different from other ladies!"

Leng Ping waved her hands and said, "I'm not a lady from a great family, I'm just a country girl! So if I do something wrong, don't take offense, my lady!"

Empress Hui's eyes flashed, and she asked in a low voice: "Country girl? But Mrs. Hao is the Sanyuan of the Celestial Dynasty, how could..."

Leng Ping said while eating: "We have been married since we were young. I married into the Hao family when I was 13 years old. I was three years older than my husband-in-law. He was not a poor boy in the country at that time? It's good if I don't dislike him." Already!"

Empress Hui said: "It's good for Ben Gong to hear this story, would you like to explain it to Ben Gong carefully?"

Leng Ping was taken aback for a moment, but then she thought, the empress must be bored in this deep palace, so she didn't mind, so she added more details to the story of how the two got here together, and made Hao Ren a Good husband!

Empress Hui listened with gusto, unknowingly more than an hour passed, still not tired.

Leng Ping's mouth was parched, and Lu Qin hurriedly brought up freshly brewed tea.

Leng Ping gulped down half a bowl of tea.

Queen Hui couldn't help but hook her lips into a smile.

Luqin looked at the side and was secretly surprised. In the past ten years, the queen has not laughed as much as today. What happened to the queen today?
In the afternoon, Leng Ping was going to take Empress Hui to the back garden of Huixian Palace again.

"Empress, don't take the sedan chair, let's just walk, it's a good time to move around, it will help your illness!" Seeing the eunuchs carrying the phoenix chariot, Leng Ping said immediately.

Empress Hui hesitated for a moment, then nodded, and wandered around Huixian Palace with Leng Ping.

Empress Hui seemed to be very interested in Leng Ping's life, and she listened very carefully.

In the middle of the afternoon, Empress Hui might be tired from shopping, so Leng Ping and Lu Qin helped her into the bedroom. Leng Ping massaged her for a long time as usual, and Empress Hui's eyes slowly closed.

Leng Ping was about to get up when Empress Hui woke up again, and said in a low voice: "You are tired after pressing for a long time, let Lvqin come, it's getting late, you go out of the palace!"

Leng Ping quickly thanked her.

Leng Ping came out of Huixian Palace, and was immediately invited to the emperor's bedroom by the eunuchs who had been waiting outside the palace gate.

The emperor has been asking people to find out what's going on in Huixian Palace, and when he hears that the queen just slept for a stick of incense, she is very anxious.

"Is there really no other way?" The emperor asked anxiously.

Leng Ping nodded, and knelt down, "Your Majesty, I really can't do anything. The empress is emotionally uncomfortable, and the god Da Luo can't cure it. I talked with the empress for a long time during the day and left. After a long journey, the empress should be exhausted, but she still can't fall asleep, which means the situation is more serious than imagined. If the emperor feels sorry for the empress, you can consider changing the environment for the empress, or go to the other garden to live in the palace for a few days. Maybe a change of environment will make the situation better!"

The emperor's face was ashen, he was angry and guilty, but he couldn't express it again, and said in a deep voice for a long time: "Go down!"

Leng Ping quickly backed away.

Hao Ren was waiting outside the palace gate, and when he saw Leng Ping's carriage coming out, he hurried forward.

Leng Ping motioned him to get on the carriage first, and then we'll talk when we go home.

After returning to Li's mansion and closing the door, Leng Ping told what happened today, and said strangely: "In my opinion, the emperor treats the empress very well, but the empress seems to dislike the emperor very much, and she doesn't even talk about it." I don't even bother to talk to the emperor! And the dignified mother of the country has depression, don't you think it's strange?"

Leng Ping sighed again: "Actually, the empress's illness is not incurable, but I don't want to be treated!"
