Foodie Fujin is a bit sweet

Chapter 271 Returning to the Palace
Yasu looked out the window of the anteroom, and saw a red plum standing on the branch.

There are still a little snowflakes on the petals of the plum blossoms, which look really beautiful.

It's a pity that Yasu is not in the mood to appreciate such a beautiful scenery at the moment.

Seeing that Aunt Yixia had been out for a long time, Yasu pushed open the door.Just after arriving on the veranda, a figure standing under a tree in the courtyard suddenly appeared in front of Yasu.

It's Hongli.

Hongli looked at the direction Yasu came out from, and asked curiously: "Didn't my brother and sister say that the room is stuffy? Why did they turn around and go into the ear room as soon as they came out?"

"The ear chamber is narrow, I'm afraid it will be more stuffy."

Yasu glanced at Hongli indifferently, and replied: "Just now I felt a little bored in the side hall for some reason. After coming out, I feel much better, and I feel better in the side room."

"It's just now..." Yasu's mouth appeared to be a half-smile, and he said, "Now that he's out of the ear chamber, he's starting to feel a little bored again for some reason."

"I don't know if the fourth brother knows, why is this?"

why?
Of course it was because Hongli was present at the side hall.After going out, including when he was in the ear room, Hongli was not there.Now that he came out of the ear room, he saw Hongli again.

With Hongli around, she would feel depressed.Not only that, but it felt a little disgusting.

Such a hypocritical person is really amazing.I don't know... Did Hongli see Aunt Yixia when she went out from the ear room?
"Your brother and sister are joking." Hongli's face was flat, he forced a smile, and said: "It's getting late, there may be something wrong with Queen Mother, I'd better go and have a look first."

"Fourth brother, go slowly." Yasu bowed his body, and it was considered a gift to Hongli.

After Hongli left, Yasu still glanced at the direction where Hongli was going.Suddenly... a light flashed in Yasu's head, as if he realized something.

The fan that the queen was talking about just now, if it is really the fan that those singers are holding...

On such an important occasion as the family banquet on New Year's Eve, the person who arranged the singing and dancing should be Concubine Xi who is now assisting the sixth palace.It was really easy for her to do such a thing.

"Really, are they?"

Yasu shook her head, but at the moment she had no evidence.

Walking through the corridor to the side hall, he saw Qianbi hugging Hongzhan who was asleep, and was about to return to the warm room.

"Madam Qian." Yasu said softly, "It's not easy to take care of the child, Madam has worked hard."

"It's not hard." Concubine Qian smiled and said, "Thank you."

After the words fell, the door of the side hall was opened.Hong Zhou heard the voice from outside the house, and after opening the door of the side hall, he saw Yasu and Concubine Qian outside the house.

"Seeing that you haven't come back for a long time, I just wanted to come out to look for you, and you came back."

Hongzhou walked up to Yasu and whispered in Yasu's ear, "I knew something was going to happen when you went out. Sure enough, the fourth brother followed."

"Just now, did you see the fourth brother?"

Yasu nodded, and lowered his voice, "We'll talk about this matter later."

"Okay." Hong Zhou nodded, and at the same time those people who were originally waiting in the side hall also came out one after another.

Things seem to be getting better with the Queen.After the imperial doctor prescribed the medicine and drank it, the queen didn't continue to talk nonsense, but her face was gloomy, obviously in a bad mood.

The palace banquet on New Year's Eve broke up like this.

All the way back home, Yasu told Hongzhou all the things she encountered, from the conversation between Aunt Yixia and herself, to meeting Hongli later, as well as some of her own guesses, when she was in the carriage. .

At the end, Yasu said: "If my speculation is true, then Empress Xi and Hongli may have done many things secretly that we don't know about."

Just a blue bird can attract the queen and affect her emotions, this trick is really clever.

It's a pity that the queen now looks like she's running out of fuel, and her emotions have been fluctuated so much this time, and she doesn't know if she can survive in the future.

"This matter is yet to be discussed."

Hong Zhou thought for a while and said, "I'll investigate this matter later. Don't think too much about it, the most important thing is to take good care of your body, you know?"

Yasu nodded obediently, leaned against Hong Zhou, and said, "With you by my side, I feel at ease."

After I finished talking, I felt sleepy, and after I gradually closed my eyes, I fell asleep.

In Jingren Palace, the queen gradually fell asleep.

A big rock in Aunt Yixia's heart finally fell to the ground.Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one around, he finally arrived outside the side hall and found a confidant maid to come over.

"Today's banquet was all arranged by Concubine Xi. Those singers have been raised by the Old Summer Palace, so there is no problem."

The confidant servant girl said: "I have also seen the clothes they used today, and I didn't see anything unusual. As for the fan... there is no problem."

"Where's the pattern on the fan?" Aunt Yixia asked, "What patterns are on the fan?"

"It's just an ordinary flower pattern." The confidant maid said: "The servant girl was very covert when investigating. If the empress didn't read it wrong, it should have been destroyed."

Is it destroyed?

Aunt Yi Xia nodded, her heart sank a little.

It seems that there is no evidence.

"Understood." Aunt Yi Xia said quickly, "Take good care of the empress. All the things related to the elder brother and the eighth elder brother in the past, put them away and don't let the empress see them."

"Yes." The confidant maid agreed, and then retreated.

On the bed, the queen fell asleep quietly.Her face looked a little pale, and although she was breathing fairly evenly, looking at her like this always made people feel heartbroken.

With Lord Yongzheng, he went back to the Hall of Mental Cultivation alone to watch the new year.

On New Year's Eve in previous years, Lord Yongzheng always watched the new year with the queen.Fortunately, although the queen was unwell this year, she did not let Concubine Xi pass.

When we returned to Fifth Prince's Mansion, it was still early.

After the snow in the sky stopped, it didn't seem so cold anymore.

As soon as Yasu came back to the yard, he smelled a delicious smell of roasted sweet potatoes.Taking a closer look, it turned out that You Qian had set up a stove and was roasting sweet potatoes!
Not only that, but also pork rib skewers.

...

Eat delicious food and leave her alone?Yasu suddenly became angry.

"What are you doing?"

Yasu and Hongzhou walked over together, Bian Shu, who was holding a meat skewer in his hand and was eager to eat, couldn't help shaking, and the meat skewer almost fell to the ground.

"Fifth elder brother... Fujin... you... why are you back!"

PS:

Bian Shu: This is terrible!I'm going to chop firewood for You Qian in the kitchen again!
