food queen

Chapter 754

Shao Juncong ran over in person, and it was hard for Yan Wenzhen to sit in the car and talk to him, so the two of them simply walked side by side on the street without riding in a car or on a horse.

"What did Shao Juanwen tell you?" Shao Juncong asked.

"He said he wanted me to do business with him in partnership. I would provide the recipe and he would provide the money." Yan Wenzhen said with a sneer, "He said that if I agreed to this matter, he would help me rescue Bai Shaoyu from prison. He felt that he would It seems omnipotent, the prison in Dali Temple is his back garden?"

"This man is good at planning, and his methods are vicious. You are not his opponent, so stay away from him." Shao Juncong frowned.

"I know, I didn't promise him. Anyway, he can't do anything to me now." Yan Wenzhen said disdainfully.

Shao Juncong pondered: "Don't be too careless. I suspect that there is his power in the palace——Although Princess Jiaying was imprisoned in the Prison Temple, she and Mitai Concubine have been operating in the palace for decades. The hidden power should be You haven't pulled out all of them yet, if he wants to play tricks, you will be hard to guard against."

"Don't worry, general, I have to be 12 careful when I cook the food of the empress and princess every day." Yan Wenzhen said, and then sighed leisurely: "My personal affairs are small. If the empress or the princess is harmed, the general's family will also be harmed by the way. Although I am a little cook, I also know that the relationship is very important."

"Well, if you can think like this, I'm relieved. His Majesty will go on a westward tour in a few days, and the important ministers of the court and the princes and princes will be accompanied by escorts. The Han family can't go when they are observing their filial piety. The Ninghou Mansion and our family must go. Go." Shao Juncong said in a low voice.

Yan Wenzhen nodded and said: "The general's escorting the westward journey is of great importance, and His Majesty will entrust him with a heavy responsibility. Wenzhen knows that the general is unparalleled in loyalty and bravery, but I still have to say something more, and I must take care of my health."

Shao Juncong nodded in agreement, then turned his head and glanced at Yan Wenzhen's side face, Fang asked: "In addition to visiting your grandfather's grave, you must also be doing this for Bai Shaoyu, right?"

Yan Wenzhen nodded, fell silent for a moment and then looked up at Shao Juncong. Fang laughed at himself and said, "Does the general think that I am overwhelmed?"

"I just don't understand." Shao Juncong said lightly.

"The general doesn't understand, so I'll tell the general." Yan Wenzhen looked at the front and said softly, "Although Bai Shaoyu and I grew up together, we had a marriage contract, but the world changed and our marriage contract was withdrawn. I also understand that I have no fate with him after all, and that relationship has already returned to the dust. However, all these things are not Bai Shaoyu's fault. He is also a helpless person. It didn't help me either. What's more, when I was in prison, he ran as hard as he could to save me. The reason is that he is just a businessman. He has no strength to contend with Shao Juanwen, so he can't save me. Isn't that His fault. I don't hate him, let alone blame him. To be honest, I am very grateful to him, and I hope he can live a good life, love Wang Muqing and live happily ever after."

Shao Juncong had never heard such words, and his feelings for Yan Wenzhen became more complicated for a while, a little admired her tolerance, but also hated her tolerance.Because although she lost that affection for Bai Shaoyu, Bai Shaoyu still misses her.

"You know, General, I met Wang Muqing yesterday." Yan Wenzhen didn't go to see Shao Juncong, and knew that he was definitely unhappy.

"What did you see her for?" Shao Juncong asked.

"Shaoyu suspected that it was someone from the Wang family who framed him. When I saw Wang Muqing, I wanted to see what she was thinking." Yan Wenzhen said, shaking her head with a sneer, "She has been blinded by jealousy and hatred, and she is as innocent as a madman." Two."

"How do you say it? Could it be that they really did it?" Shao Juncong asked.

"Although there is no evidence, I think it is likely to be the case. Do you know? In fact, Wang Muqing liked Shaoyu when she was very young. She is two years older than me and sensible before me. I remember she gave Shaoyu back I have embroidered a purse. The purse is very delicately embroidered." Yan Wenzhen suddenly had a desire to confide in something that had been kept in his heart for too long, and at this moment Shao Juncong was walking side by side with him on the busy street , giving her the illusion of chatting with old friends for many years.

"Embroidered purse?" Shao Juncong frowned slightly. As far as he could remember, the women in the family had never embroidered a purse for a man.Those little daughters embroidering purses for their lovers are just listening to it.

"Yes! At that time, she told me herself that she liked Shaoyu and wanted to marry him as his wife." Yan Wenzhen smiled mockingly, "But yesterday, she acted like a madman in front of me, and she kept talking to Shaoyu Yu cursed and insulted her, but she didn't have any trace of her past affection."

"From love to hate." Shao Juncong said lightly.

"From love to hate?" Yan Wenzhen frowned suspiciously, glanced at Shao Juncong, and sighed in a low voice: "But I can't understand."

"I can't understand it either, but I just heard people say it." Shao Juncong said lightly.

"Since it's love, then we can only hope for his well-being. How can we still do harm to him, even take his life? This is too crazy." Yan Wenzhen shook his head.

Shao Juncong didn't respond.The two walked for a while in silence, seeing the outer gate of the palace in front of them, Yan Wenzhen stopped and said: "The palace gate is here, the general should go back."

"That's good." Shao Juncong glanced at the majestic palace wall, and said again: "The day of His Majesty's west tour has been fixed. I am afraid that Bai Shaoyu's case will not be judged before His Majesty's west tour. This matter involves the imperial pharmacy, Dali. The people in the temple don't dare to slack off, so they will take good care of him, so you can just rest assured."

"I know. It's a long way to go. You must take care of your health." Yan Wenzhen nodded, and said, "I'm busy every day, and I can't do any good sewing. I spent more than half a year on a feather satin cloak This time, I did not expect to meet the general when I went out of the palace, so I didn't take it with me, let's see when it is convenient for Miss Yanran to enter the palace, let her help take it out."

After hearing this, Shao Juncong couldn't help laughing: "Why wait for her? I'll come to you tomorrow night."

"Okay." Yan Wenzhen also knew that Shao Juncong would naturally have the ability to enter and leave the palace, so he nodded in agreement without thinking too much.

After bidding farewell to Shao Juncong, Yan Wenzhen hurried back to the palace, first went to the empress's place to show her face, and then went to the small dining room to look at it again, and went back to the room after seeing that the empress's dinner was ready, and put the one made for Shao Juncong He took the cape out and began to sew the half-sewed straps at the neckline.

The little palace maid Xiuping came in with a lidded cup and said with a soft smile, "Girl, you came back in such a hurry, did you make this without taking a bite of tea and rice?"

"Use it in a hurry." Yan Wenzhen smiled, glanced at the soup cup, and asked casually, "Is it wolfberry yam porridge?"

"Miss, you have a good nose. This soup pot is tightly covered. You can immediately guess that it is wolfberry and peony porridge." Xiuping laughed.

Yan Wenzhen said with a smile: "I also put red dates and longan. There is a bit too much longan. I'm afraid the empress will dislike it."

"That's not true! It's said that the empress's tongue is powerful, but in fact, my sister, your nose is comparable to the empress's tongue." Xiuping smiled, "I just put the porridge in, and the empress just took a sip and put it down. But without saying anything, Sister Cherry brought it out. I thought I had been up for half a day, and the red dates, longan, wolfberry, and yam were all excellent. It just so happened that my sister’s dinner was useless, and it seemed that I was going to stay up late again. Send it to my sister. Can my sister be busy after eating two bites?"

Yan Wenzhen put the cloak in his hand aside, and said with a smile, "It's hard for you to think about it, so let's eat two bites."

"Here, sister, please use." Xiuping lifted the lid of the soup pot and handed the spoon to Yan Wenzhen.

"Thank you." Yan Wenzhen took the spoon and ate the porridge.

Sitting next to her, Xiuping took the crow blue feather satin cloak to look at carefully, and sighed: "Sister's hands are so skillful, the needles and threads are finer and more even than the needlework of the embroiderer in the palace."

"You're talking nonsense again. How dare my needlework compare with the embroiderers in the palace?" Yan Wenzhen laughed, "You let those embroiderers compare their cooking skills with me?"

"That's really not dare. Not to mention the embroidered lady in the palace, even the imperial cooks in the imperial dining room, no one dares to compare with my sister." Xiuping smiled and opened his cloak to look, and said, "It's not like It's my sister's own clothes, presumably they were made for General Shao?"

Yan Wenzhen was startled: "If it's not mine, it must be his?"

"Then who else can it be?" Xiuping asked back.

Yan Wenzhen looked at Xiuping's expression, as if it was a matter of course for her to make clothes for Shao Juncong. She felt strange for a moment, hesitated for a moment, and then asked: "You... all know?"

Xiuping smiled and said: "I didn't know it at first, but I know it from now on!"

"What do you mean by that?" Yan Wenzhen asked puzzled again.

"Just now when I was removing the food inside, I just heard Your Majesty talking about General Shao to the Empress! Miss, don't want to hear what His Majesty said?" Xiuping looked at Yan Wenzhen with a smile.

"What did you say?" Yan Wenzhen murmured.

"Little General Shao begged His Majesty for kindness, saying that Yan Wenzhen, the imperial cook, was his woman, and his woman made him a robe. Please give me your Majesty's grace. He will come to the palace tomorrow night to get the clothes." Xiuping said with a smile.

"Nonsense!" Yan Wenzhen scolded in a low voice.

Xiuping patted the back of Yan Wenzhen's hand and said with a low smile, "Sister, this is His Majesty's golden words!"

"He's really messing around! How can you say such things in front of the emperor." Yan Wenzhen only felt that his cheeks were hot, and his cheeks were burning red until the base of his neck.

Xiuping looked at Yan Wenzhen's shy appearance with satisfaction, and continued to smile: "Your Majesty told the empress seriously what General Shao said, and the empress agreed after hearing it. She said it was a good thing, and she has never been able to do it." Yuelao, but this time I have to fulfill my sister’s good deeds with you and General Shao!”

"Really?" Yan Wenzhen bit her lip for a moment, as if she couldn't believe what Xiuping said.

Xiuping smiled and said: "Of course it is true, this is a big deal, how dare I lie to my sister."
