Be Modest, My Master of Imperial Guards

The daylight rises every inch of the palace wall, spring and warm.

After getting up in the morning, Gu Yunxi plunged into the small kitchen and made two snacks by himself.

One is called "Peach Noodle Pills" and the other is called "Yue Yangmei". They are one of the 28 flavors of delicacies mentioned by her mother Pei Ruyi in the book "Treasure Delicacy Lin Lang Lu".

It is mentioned in the book that first mash the cabbage as a tribute from the foreign barbarian to extract the liquid, mix it with white vinegar to make a pink juice, mix in an appropriate amount of orange powder and potato flour, knead into a dough, cut into small portions, and then press into a round cake .

Each small noodle cake is wrapped with a dip made of pork, magnolia bone, red medicine bone, Wuling bone, honey, tapioca powder, and tuckahoe powder, and the seal is kneaded into a five-petal peach blossom shape.

After being steamed on the tray, the small sweets in the shape of peach blossoms will show a crystal clear pink color, which is extremely appetizing, which is called "Peach Noodle Pills".

At first, Yunxi thought that "peach noodles" meant the peach-like appearance of this dessert.

However, when she realized what those main materials were referring to, she realized that her mother named her "Peach Noodles", which had a different meaning.

The so-called "Magnolia Bone", "Red Medicine Bone" and "Wuling Bone" are actually the petals of magnolia, peony flowers and peach blossoms.

There are records in medical books that these three kinds of flowers have the effect of clearing heat and dissipating knots, and women can nourish blood and keep volume by eating regularly.

Human face peach blossoms, all the country and the city, is the correct interpretation of "taomian pill".

As for "Yue Yangmei", Yun Xi thinks that its production method is similar to that of water dumplings.

Mix glutinous rice flour with appropriate amount of milk and knead it into small balls. Pack the stuffing of hawthorn cake, ginkgo and rock sugar. After boiling it, roll with the minced rice dyed with red yeast rice powder, and deep-fry the rice until it is fluffy.

Take the dumplings out of the pot and drain the hot oil.

Looking at the round pieces, they are rosy and eye-catching, and the texture of the burnt and crisp shell is bumpy, like very ripe bayberry.

Yunxi placed them in the center of the creamy white plate, decorated with jade melon slices as leaves, and it became a stunning delicacy.

Hearing that Mrs. Xiao didn’t think about eating and drinking recently, Yunxi thought, "Yue Yangmei" filling is moderately sweet and sour. Compared with real red bayberry, the taste is better than that of real red bayberry. Good person.

Putting the two newly-made dim sum into two food boxes respectively, Yunxi ignored Zhiqi's dissuasion and rushed to Cining Palace along the sedan chair.

She is very smart, knowing that she beat Princess Jingle yesterday, and there must be complaints from the concubine.

Rather than waiting for her to come, it is better to rush to Cining Palace to "please".

Anyway, he is a junior, and it is not bad manners to take the initiative to greet the ancestors.

Unexpectedly, when the sedan chair arrived at Cining Palace, the aunt Tongjiang blocked the guard of honor outside the palace gate because of the lack of health of Princess Xiao.

Yunxi didn't force it, but respectfully offered "Yue Yangmei" and turned around and hurried to Miaoying Pavilion.

Concubine Hui did not refuse Yun Xi's visit, and sent the head of Hong Jing to personally connect the people to the main hall, serving them warmly with fragrant tea.

On the way into the hospital, Hong Jing was still explaining that her master was lying down after suffering from Ye Han last night, knowing that a guest came to get up and dress up.

Sitting beside the Sifang Xiaoqu, Yunxi casually served a cup of tea, filled with suspiciousness.

It’s also interesting to want to come. There was a rain last night, and Princess Xiao of Cining Palace and Concubine Hui of Miaoyin Pavilion fell ill at the same time?

Yun Xi thought, if Concubine Xiao did not want to see her and deliberately called her illness as an excuse, what about Concubine Hui?

Saying she was sick, why call her to come in and wait.

After about half a cup of tea, a soft tone gurgled out from the other side of the octagonal crystal beads in the fragrance, and it was as elegant as a spring in the mountains, faintly revealing a slight coldness:

"But sister Yun is here? My sister sits for a while. I don't know if my sister came to the door early in the morning. My house is up late, and the decent bun is not yet neatly dressed. Let's have a chat inside and outside the curtain."

Yunxi hurriedly dropped the teacup, leaned slightly on the armchair and nodded:

"It's my concubine. My concubine hasn't visited my sister for a long time in the harem. I think about coming to ask An today, but I don't know that my sister's jade body violates the law. I hope my sister will forgive me if I ask for trouble."

The other person paused and said suddenly:

"It's all here, why bother to say this again."

Yun Xi's eyebrows flew up.

He was choked for nothing and felt very uncomfortable.

Xu was aware of the abruptness of his own words just now, and the person on the other side of the curtain immediately softened his tone:

"Heh, I don't know what kind of pastime my sister usually has in Jingyang Palace? Which kind of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting is the most specialized?"

Yunxi's feather eyelashes flicker a few times like a light gauze, the smiley model:

"I made my sister laugh. My concubine was raised by the former head of Youzhu Gongyuan since she was a child. She is dull and inferior to other sisters. Qin, chess, calligraphy and calligraphy have nothing to learn."

A series of laughter rushed out of the bead curtain, the sound was as clear as ice breaking, and Yunxi was at a loss.

After laughing enough, there is another sentence, chasing it out contemptuously:

"Who knows that the younger sister in this harem is the most favored by the emperor, how can you have no strength? Is your younger sister humble or selfish, unwilling to share with this palace?"

Yun Xi opened his mouth slightly, knowing that he couldn't afford to make things difficult for him today.

"In return to the imperial concubine sister, the concubine will help out in the kitchen of the Gongyuan, as the chefs have learned the craft for a few years. However, those tricks of cutting vegetables are hard to be elegant in the palace."

At this time, the maid of the Miaoying Pavilion, the maid of the palace, Hong Jing said:

"Qi Niang Niang, what the master of your wife said is true. When you come this time, she also brought you a hand-made dessert for you Niang Niang."

"Oh? So troublesome sister, come in for the palace."

Yunxi got up, holding the food box in his hand and followed Hongjing to the bedroom.

She was cautious every step she took, and her heart kept moving.

Although I don't know what the master of Miaoyinge wants to do, there is nothing wrong with being cautious in words and deeds and not easily instructing others to handle it.

Concubine Hui has finished dressing up, and a pair of flying fairy buns are decorated with tired silk tortoiseshell dots and emerald rose cymbals, and a golden seven-tailed crested tassel hairpin horizontally across the center is noble and beautiful.

She wore a smoky purple silk spring skirt with rich flowers and birds, and each pattern was bordered with bright red silk threads with light gold, shining brightly against the light.

Compared with this magnificence, when seeing the enchanting Gu Yunxi model approaching, the starry brilliance in the woman's eyes was gradually shining, and then she fell into an icy dark abyss.

A light honey-colored snowy brocade dress worn on a slender young woman is indeed a lot of color.

And on that soft gauze satin surface, the patterns of bee butterfly and spring peach are made with embroidery technology, which is really rare.

The slanted double-knife hair bun does not have too many gorgeous hairpins, but is continuously embellished with scattered tourmalines and beaded flowers. Two sheep jade tassels are swayed, shining brightly and dazzling eyes.

Concubine Hui looked calmly over Yunxi's creamy white face, her heart stung as if she had been stung by the moon-blue, light emerald-colored bees on her body that were eager to live and soaring wings.

A voice circling in my head:

"Bah! Sure enough, it is rumored that it is better to meet, Hu Meizi is really sick!"

"Concubine pays courtesy to the concubine sister."

Yun Xi squatted lightly, holding the food box over his head.

"Forget it."

Concubine Hui Hui responded lazily, like a voice squeezing from between her teeth, her lips unwilling to move a bit more:

"You and I are both concubines serving the emperor, so you don't need to be polite in private. If you bring something terrific, take a closer look with this palace."

"Yes."

Yunxi stepped closer and opened the food box in front of the dressing table.

The five flowers inside are small and exquisite, and the color of Pink Ai Ai is like the petals of spring peaches all over her body.

While the woman in front of the bronze mirror was amazing, she writhed with incomparable hatred in her heart.

"What is this?" Concubine Hui asked disdainfully.

Yunxi replied slowly:

"Peach noodle pill is a dessert similar to crystal dumplings. The filling is sweet and can be eaten cold. It can be eaten often to nourish the face."

Concubine Hui was silent in her face.

Staying?

Sending this to my palace, is this a satire that my palace is older than her and not as good as her appearance?

Concubine Hui's eyelids are not pursed:

"Let it go first."

Yunxi frowned faintly and did so.

Just about to step aside, Concubine Hui suddenly shouted:

"Stupid thing, I didn't see Sister Yun coming for a long time and waiting for this palace, but you can't even wear a hairpin to this palace. What's the use of this palace to raise you!"

He raised his hand and slapped it to the face of the little maid beside him.

After two crisp noises, the food box fell to the ground, and the maid knelt on the ground, half of his face flushed with fingerprints.

Looking at the overturned dim sum on the ground with cold eyes, Concubine Hui hid her mouth and made a faint smile:

"Oh, sister, I'm so sorry. My sister was so angry that she overturned the snack you prepared carefully.

Forget it, but the palace is still young, and this beauty-preserving thing is not needed for a while.

Xuanxue, go, pick them up and feed them to Ben Ben'er, and it's worthy of sister's wishes. Don't think Ben Ben'er is a dog, but he is not stingy and not picky eaters. "

After Yang Yang finished speaking, Concubine Hui looked up at Yun Xi and asked with a smile:

"Sister, are you upset?"

This Concubine Hui, really beats people without slapping her face, cursing people without swearing dirty words!

Yunxi suppressed his anger and said with a smile:

"My sister said anything, just a few snacks, not to eat for whom. Anyway, this dog is the most human by nature, and sometimes he understands people better than humans."

Concubine Hui almost spit out her old blood.

This Yungui's mouth was not forgiving.

Five fingers were held in the sleeves, the woman's face changed, and she turned to face the bronze mirror, holding the beaded flowers on her temples, forming a soft smile:

"Hey, I said that the first time I met my sister today, I made my sister laugh. The people in this palace are not as good as the people in the big palace. They can't do a little bit of Dai Chai.

This time, my elder sister won’t see her outside, can I have a sister-in-law and wear a hairpin for the palace in person? "

"Why not?"

Yun Xi cursed secretly in his heart, still licking his face with a smile, and took a swallowtail butterfly-wrapped flower pin and compared it between the woman's hair sideburns.

Concubine Na Hui seemed to amuse Yun Xi intentionally, and every time the hairpin came close, she would tilt her head.

Yunxi really couldn't hold back the fire, his face solemnly said:

"Sister, don't move anymore, if you move again, it will be hard for my concubine to help you!"

Concubine Hui immediately glanced over and chuckled:

"What are you doing? I'm annoyed by my palace just telling you a little thing? Yesterday, I was not very energetic. It was a banquet for the imperial concubine and a drink with the emperor."

Yun Xi was stunned, looking at the glamorous facial features in the bronze mirror, and suddenly shot, and forcefully pierced the hairpin into the woman's plump sideburns.

"Ah, it hurts—"

Concubine Hui held her head and shouted, her fingers overflowing with bright red.

"I said don't mess with me!"

Before Yun Xi's harsh words fell, he picked up another hairpin on the table and put the sharp hairpin on the face of the concubine.

With a charming face approaching the frightened woman, Yunxi smiled at the bronze mirror.

The icy hairpin gently rubbed the woman's face, exuding a compelling light in the sunshine of a few meters:

"Sister, didn’t the sister tell you not to move? You move again, I'm afraid I won’t want this beautiful face...":,,
