The queen mother swept Qiao Jinniang's sharp eyes and said, "You don't know? You don't know a single word, so you want to be innocent?

None of the cooks in Chang'an dare to make this dish, but you dare to use this dish as the main course of the funeral banquet! Aijia will never forgive you! "

"Grandmother, Jinniang really doesn't know about this." Lu Chen strode over from outside the palace gate, bowed to the queen mother, and helped Qiao Jinniang up.

Lu Chen held Qiao Jinniang's hand, "Besides, grandma only said that folks should not be popular. Jinniang is the wife of her grandson, and she never disobeyed your grandmother's orders in making chrysanthemum tofu."

The queen mother looked at the hands they were holding and said, "Your wife? Why do you want your princess to be this bold woman from the market?"

Lu Chen said: "Jinniang and I have three matches and six engagements, and we are also husband and wife who have worshiped heaven and earth."

The queen mother snorted coldly, and said: "Even if it is your wife, she shouldn't have given the well-known chrysanthemum feast to a concubine's funeral. Where is the mourning house?"

Qiao Jinniang said frankly: "The empress dowager, the ministers and daughters grew up in a small mountain town, so I really don't know about the chrysanthemum banquet.

The court lady felt that the Empress Dowager and her exclusive enjoyment of chrysanthemum tofu would prevent the common people from feeling the late emperor's love for you. It would be better to let the people know the late emperor's love and love for you and promote the chrysanthemum banquet.

There are many romantic literati who love chrysanthemums. Not only can the people know the deep love between the first emperor and the empress dowager, but also the noble character of the empress dowager. "

The Empress Dowager's face softened a lot when she heard this.

Qiao Jinniang broke away from Lu Chen's hand, went over and poured a cup of tea for the queen mother again:

"The courtier has even thought of a name, so the chrysanthemum tofu can be named Liugong Fendai Wuhue, to describe the late emperor's deep affection for the queen mother.

After all, once this chrysanthemum tofu comes out, no matter how exquisite the dish is, it will be eclipsed, just like the beauty of the Queen Mother. "

"I beg the Queen Mother to give the courtiers a chance to atone for their merits and promote this dish to the people."

The Empress Dowager took the cup from Qiao Jinniang's hand, and the corners of her lips curled slightly, "Yes."

Qiao Jinniang breathed a sigh of relief, and Fushen left.

Lu Chen looked at Qiao Jinniang's wet skirt and asked, "Did she hit you?"

Qiao Jinniang shook her head: "Even though the Queen Mother is angry, she is also reasonable. How could she be as bad as me? It was just splashed with some water."

Qiao Jinniang complained again, "Don't you know to remind me that the queen mother has taboos on the chrysanthemum banquet?"

Lu Chen said: "I don't know about this, but if she lets you enter the palace again in the future, you can go to find the queen mother first, and come with the queen mother, so that you will be wronged."

Qiao Jinniang smiled, "I'm not a child, so I don't need the Empress.

I have a lot of ways to deal with such an old man. When you are old, just let her make you happy.

Confronting her won't do me any good either. After all, Tang Chao suppresses the word filial piety, so I still have to obey. "

Seeing that Lu Chen was looking at her, Qiao Jinniang waved her hands in front of Lu Chen's eyes, "What's the matter? It's the first time I found out that I'm so shameless that you can't move your eyes?"

Lu Chen responded: "Well, you are getting more and more beautiful."

Lu Chen dared not speak out what was in his heart.

After he recovered his memory back then, the reason why he chose not to tell the truth to Qiao Jinniang was because she was afraid that she would not have time to adapt, and if she entered the palace with her temper, she might offend the Queen Mother and Concubine Xian.

The queen mother is struggling to cope in front of the queen mother, let alone her?

But whether she was protecting Xi'er last time or today, Qiao Jinniang is different from what he thought. She can completely handle the Queen Mother and make the Queen Mother happy.

Lu Chen felt extremely regretful, if he had told her about his identity at that time, it would be great, at least he wouldn't have to wait until the Lantern Festival.

"It's not easy for you to enter the palace. Let's go to the mother's palace for dinner today?"

Qiao Jinniang shook her head and said, "No, I don't want to cook for His Majesty anymore."

She likes to cook, but cooking for His Majesty is too troublesome, and she is afraid that His Majesty will taste something good or bad.

"Oh, my father has offended my mother, so I won't go to my mother's harem to eat in the near future, don't worry."

Qiao Jinniang listened to Lu Chen's words, how could she hear some gloating, "Your father, queen, and empress do not get along well, and you are so happy to be a son?"

Lu Chen said: "I can't always be alone, looking at the two of them affectionately."

Qiao Jinniang: "..."

Arriving in the queen's palace, as soon as Qiao Jinniang entered, she saw the queen and a young girl carving a wood carving.

When the girl saw Lu Chen coming, she bowed her body and said coquettishly, "Brother, you came just in time. My aunt and I are carving you. Do you think I look like you?"

Lu Chen dotingly smiled and said, "It's pretty similar."

The queen came over and said, "Jinniang is here. This is my niece Zhou Sisi. She suffered from a serious illness when she was young. She acts like a child. She loves sculpture the most."

Qiao Jinniang remembered Zhou Sisi, the girl who gave Fu Lu silver as a bribe on the Tanabata begging day to be the first among the carved melons...

The queen said again: "Sisi, this is your cousin."

Zhou Sisi pouted and said, "Auntie, didn't the play say that cousins ​​are husband and wife? Why is there another cousin?"

When Qiao Jinniang heard this, she glared at Lu Chen.

Lu Chen whispered in Qiao Jinniang's ear, "She's only six or seven years old, so she speaks without restraint."

Qiao Jinniang looked at Zhou Sisi, who looked fifteen or sixteen years old, how could he be six or seven years old?

Even if it is only six or seven years old, can a six or seven-year-old child be bribed with a silver ticket for selection?

It can be seen that even if you are young, your character is not good.

The queen smiled at Zhou Sisi: "You have more than one cousin, so is it possible that you can marry every cousin?"

Zhou Sisi stomped her feet and said, "But, brother is the prettiest!"

The queen smiled, "Sisi is good, my aunt will find you a better looking one in the future."

The queen explained to Qiao Jinniang again: "Sisi is just a child, you don't have to take her words to heart, Chen'er is just a brother and sister to her."

Qiao Jinniang said: "Your Majesty, the courtiers don't care about it."

The queen looked at Qiao Jinniang's jealous face and didn't try to expose it.

When Qiao Jinniang was having lunch, she really regretted why she agreed to Lu Chen to come to the Queen's Palace for dinner.

This is obviously the table where the meal is silent, and Zhou Sisi's elder brother's voice can be heard everywhere.

"Brother, this soup is delicious!"

"Brother, eat this meat quickly, it's delicious."

"elder brother……"

Qiao Jinniang was really upset when she heard it, brother, brother, is this a pigeon? It's not a real brother, why not call him cousin?

Qiao Jinniang really wanted to pluck Zhou Sisi's hair and make it into a roasted squab, so that her ears were all her brother's, brother's.

Lu Chen put a piece of mutton into Qiao Jinniang's bowl, and said to Zhou Sisi: "Sisi, don't call me brother in the future, call your Highness Gu."

The queen glanced at Lu Chen and said, "Why?"

Lu Chen said: "Because my son only has one younger sister."

The queen wondered: "Where do you have a younger sister? Fulu? When did you see that you have a deep affection for her brother and sister?"

Qiao Jinniang understood what Lu Chen meant, and pinched his waist to stop him from talking nonsense.

But Lu Chen still said to the queen: "It's not Fulu, this sister is right in front of me."
