Chapter 330
Seeing that Pei Huizhao was silent, Ruan Yulian was puzzled for a while, and asked curiously, "Why is sister silent?"

"I'm thinking that the empress will take action after being said so by the concubine Xian, right?" Pei Huizhao said with a serious face, but there was a faint uneasiness in his heart. Generally speaking, once the conflict between the superiors breaks out, the one who is most threatened It is often not they who start the battle, but the ordinary concubines who don't know which side to take, so the future court may be more complicated and weird.

Thinking of this, Pei Huizhao looked at Ruan Yulian and reminded softly, "Sister, you should pay more attention in the future."

"Sister, don't worry," Ruan Yulian said with a smile, "In the future, I will never be pushed over my wine glass again."

Hearing the meaning of Ruan Yulian's words, Pei Huizhao smiled slightly, and then the two of them said some more thoughtful words, Ruan Yulian left Wenxi Hall, seeing that Concubine Xi was about to leave the inner room, Pei Huizhao suddenly remembered something and hurriedly called her to stop , and then asked Chen Xiang to bring a food box.

Seeing this, Ruan Yulian was very puzzled, then remembered something, couldn't help but smiled sweetly and said: "It's my sister who feels sorry for Ru'er."

"You, you have to take care of yourself when you stay alone in Jinhua Palace," Pei Huizhao took the nanmu food box from Chenxiang, handed it to Ruan Yulian, and said, "Take these wedding cakes home, hungry It’s time to eat some, but be careful not to spoil your stomach, the weather is a bit hot, and it’s estimated that you won’t be able to eat any more tomorrow.”

"Yulian understands," Ruan Yulian nodded emphatically. When she took the food box, a bright brilliance flashed in her eyes. Touched by such brilliance, Pei Huizhao felt that the concubine in front of her was simply a beautiful and beautiful figure in the deep palace. The warm scenery, Pei Huizhao sincerely hopes that such beauty will last forever.

At this time, Ruan Yulian was also moved by the cherishment in Pei Huizhao's eyes, she couldn't help moistening her eyes slightly, and asked softly, "Sister?"

Startled by Ruan Yulian's question, Pei Huizhao hurriedly withdrew his thoughts, took Concubine Xi's hand, and once again instructed: "Remember to protect yourself. Although your temper is harmless, it is still pure after all. If it happens to you Some people's schemes may be difficult to deal with." As he spoke, Pei Huizhao's eyes showed a slight worry, but he was afraid of scaring Ruan Yulian, so he quickly covered up this worry quietly.

Unexpectedly, after hearing Pei Huizhao's words, Ruan Yulian not only was not frightened, but said with a smile on her face: "Ru'er is not afraid, Ru'er has sister Hui, and in the future, whenever Ru'er encounters any problems, come and tell her, please ask her to think about it for Ru'er." Method."

Dumbfounded by Ruan Yulian's words, Pei Huizhao didn't expect that such a heavy topic would become so easy when Ruan Yulian said it. He couldn't help but smiled and shook his head. Seeing that the time was almost up, he hurriedly persuaded him: "Let's go, if it's too late, we won't be able to catch up." It's time to eat."

Ruan Yulian replied with a smile, handed the food box to the close maid Huan Jin, then smiled sweetly at Pei Huizhao, turned and left the inner room.

Seeing Ruan Yulian pass through the main room, Pei Huizhao turned around and walked towards the golden nanmu Luohantao. Chen Xiang, who was following her, had a dark expression on her face, as if she had something on her mind, and Pei Huizhao was also thinking about what Ruan Yulian said just now, "the empress and the virtuous concubine, Concubine Shu is not pregnant", so she didn't speak, and the room was very quiet for a while, as if she could hear the sound of embroidery needles falling to the ground.

Just at this time, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, followed by a report: "My lady, the lunch is already ready, will it be served now?"

Disturbed by this sentence, Pei Huizhao hurriedly looked towards the door, and said slowly: "Bring it here," and motioned for Chen Xiang to go to the door to say hello.

It was precisely at this glance that Pei Huizhao noticed Chen Xiang's abnormality, and couldn't help being puzzled, but since Chen Xiang had already gone to the door according to her instructions, Pei Huizhao could only look at Chen Xiang's back and fell into deep thought.

When Chen Xiang watched Mammy arrange the food and then stood beside Pei Huizhao, Pei Huizhao suddenly turned around, looked at Chen Xiang and asked, "What? What's on your mind?"

"No, no," Chen Xiang shook her head in denial, then lowered her head and stared at the ground without saying a word. Seeing this, Pei Huizhao didn't continue to ask, but changed the topic and talked about today's dishes.

Different from the usual oversimplified dishes in the Mingdang Temple, this lunch is rich and just right. Two meat and two vegetables, plus a bowl of white rice, and a bowl of Longjing bamboo fungus are simple and nutritious. The meat dish is chicken Shredded cucumber, spicy tripe shreds, the vegetarian dish is mushroom hair dish, lotus pod tofu, which looks bright in color and smells very attractive.

Pei Huizhao couldn't help eating two more mouthfuls than usual, and Chen Xiang couldn't help laughing when she saw this situation: "It seems that the kitchen nuns in Wenxi Palace are indeed more dedicated than those in Mingdang Palace."

"That's true," Pei Huizhao smiled slightly, and said after taking Chen Xiang's words, "Go and give a reward to the nanny who cooked today, and let them know how to serve me in the future."

"Yes," Chen Xiang blissed slightly, then turned around, walked to the corner cabinet with gold-winged wood appliqués, opened the door, took out a penny from inside, turned back to Pei Huizhao, and said slowly, "Why don't you give me a reward?" The nuns in the kitchen will each receive fifty copper coins, and then an additional twenty copper coins will be awarded to the nuns who cook."

"That's good too," Pei Huizhao nodded, and said, "In order not to grow their appetites, it will be difficult to control in the future." After finishing speaking, he signaled Chen Xiang to give a reward.

Looking at Chen Xiang's back that was drifting away, Pei Huizhao couldn't help thinking: Chen Xiang has been with her for a long time, and the two of them can be regarded as sisters in love, but there is a secret she didn't tell Chen Xiang. It seems that there is also a secret that she didn't tell her. What she didn't tell Chenxiang was her relationship with Xiao Yu, and what Chenxiang didn't tell her was why she was hunted down by Concubine Ning.

In Haitang Village before, Pei Huizhao wanted to wait for Chenxiang to say something before she listened to her again, who would have thought that Chenxiang's face immediately changed after hearing Xi Concubine's words just now, and Pei Huizhao couldn't help asking himself secretly: Could it be that Chenxiang is not That one secret, and other secrets that she hadn't told her?If this is the case, what is the secret behind it?
Just when Pei Huizhao was puzzled, Chenxiang returned to the inner room with a calm expression. Sensing the speculation in Pei Huizhao's eyes, Chenxiang hurriedly said to Pei Huizhao: "The slave has already given the copper coin to the mother in the kitchen. There was also the maid who served tea when Empress Xi came, everyone was very happy."

"That's good," Pei Huizhao nodded in satisfaction after listening to Chen Xiang's words, and lamented Chen Xiang's thoughtfulness: the wedding cake Xi Concubine ate just now was really good, and the Longjing tea that matched it was also very suitable. As a result, the maid who served tea came and went again and again, and she forgot about it as soon as there were too many things, but fortunately, Chen Xiang still remembered.
