When Yan Shu arrived, Concubine Zhou's chestnut cakes had already been placed on the kang table in the imperial study.

She took a quick look, and saw that the lid of the food box hadn't been lifted, and there were no dishes in front of the emperor, thinking that he hadn't had time to eat yet, so she quietly put her mind at ease.

Concubine Zhou Gui asked her with a look of disgust, "Why is Li Guiyi here?"

It took her a long time just now to enter the royal study under the banner of the Queen Mother. Why did this **** call her in as soon as he notified His Majesty?

Yan Shu hurriedly bowed to the emperor and her, and said, "The concubine just found a nettle in the palace, it seems to belong to His Majesty, so hurry up and send it to Your Majesty."

As he spoke, he presented a purple scorpion that he had just casually grabbed from the palace.

Tsk, this color is not for men at first glance.

But Yan Shu couldn't help it, she was in a hurry to save the emperor, so how could she have the time to pick colors?

However, Concubine Zhou thought that she was here to show herself that the emperor stayed with her again last night, sparks almost burst out of her eyes.

However, the emperor didn't expose her, and put away the net with a huff.

Yan Shu was certain in her heart, and said casually, "By the way, Your Majesty, you ate persimmon cakes for breakfast today. The imperial doctor ordered you to remember to eat chestnuts, otherwise the two things will interfere with each other and cause abdominal pain."

【Emperor, I can only help you in this way. There is Suoqingsan in the chestnut cake. Other men eat chaos, sex. If you eat it, your meridians will be disordered and you will go crazy! 】

Yu Wenlan paused secretly.

He just now knew from Concubine Zhou's voice that there was something wrong with that snack.

But I don't know, it can be such a vicious thing?

real or fake?

How did she know such details? How do you know what will happen to him after he eats it?

However, Concubine Zhou's face turned green. What she brought today happened to be chestnut cakes. What does this **** mean?

She said, "From now on I will fast for three days. This is the chestnut cake sent by the Queen Mother in fear that His Majesty will be hungry. I have never heard of chestnut cake and persimmon cake."

While talking, he cast a threatening look at Yan Shu.

Slut, if you dare to ruin her good deed, she will definitely tear her into pieces!

However, it was too late, and the king said to Yan Shu, "I almost forgot, thank you for reminding me."

As he said that, he looked at her, "It's hard for the queen mother to give her all my heart, but it's a pity that I can't eat this chestnut cake today."

Concubine Zhou secretly clenched her fists, but she could only smile and said, "It's good that Your Majesty is well."

As she spoke, she gritted her teeth and cursed in her heart, 【Li Yanshu, you bitch, I must make you a pig! ! 】

Human pig?

Yu Wenlan put aside her doubts about Yan Shu for the time being, and said to her, "I remember seeing Cheng Engong's face was not very good a few days ago, but thinking about it, he was a little bit exhausted. This chestnut cake is a good thing, and it is just a reward for Cheng En. benefactor."

As soon as these words came out, Yan Shu was stunned.

Reward Cheng Engong?

This is a great idea! !

I just don't know if the old man can stand it?

However, Concubine Zhou hurriedly said, "But Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager asked her concubine to send it to you."

Yu Wenlan smiled and said, "Is Cheng Engong an outsider?"

Concubine Zhou choked, and said again, "But this weather, I'm afraid it will be cold when I send it over."

Yu Wenlan looked at her and said, "I told the guards to hurry up, and Cheng'en's mansion is not far away, so it won't be cold."

Concubine Zhou finally panicked, and said repeatedly, "It's better not to use it, it's too troublesome..."

Yan Shu was busy making up for it, "The imperial concubine is too modest. Your majesty has given you some snacks, but it is a great grace. I think Cheng Engong will be grateful. It's an honor."

After the words fell, Yu Wenlan nodded, and directly ordered Fu Hai, "Ask someone to send the chestnut cake brought by the imperial concubine to Cheng Engong. Remember to hurry up, don't let the snacks go cold."

Fu Hai was busy, took the food box and went out to find someone.

Concubine Zhou could only hold back her urgency and said, "This concubine would like to thank Your Majesty for my father's kindness. I will not disturb Your Majesty, and I will leave first."

After speaking, he hurried away.

Yu Wenlan looked at Yan Shu, and was thinking about how to ask her, but she also hurriedly said, "The concubine will not bother His Majesty anymore, I will take my leave first."

Damn, I have to go back to eat melons, and see how the old man Cheng Engong will turn out after eating chestnut cakes!

Then he also withdrew from the palace gate.

Yu Wenlan, "..."

She said... eat melon?

I still remember saying the same thing the night before.

This melon...what is it?

~~

However, Concubine Zhou hurried all the way back to Zhongcui Palace, and immediately ordered the **** Zhou Laishun, "Send someone to Cheng'en Gong's mansion quickly, and tell my father not to eat that chestnut cake!"

Zhou Laishun agreed and went out to find someone.

However, it was a step too late. When she delivered the letter, Cheng Engong had already eaten two of them happily.

Tsk, this is a royal gift, what a great grace! !

Concubine Zhou Guifei suffered for an hour, and it was not until noon that Zhou Laishun came back to report.

"Your Majesty, when our people arrive, the father-in-law has already eaten half of the chestnut cake..."

what!

Concubine Zhou immediately asked, "How about my father?"

"This…"

Zhou Laishun was really blushing, so he leaned close to his ear and lowered his voice to report.

Concubine Zhou Gui was so angry that she smashed the glazed plum vase in her hand.

Zhou Laishun hurriedly comforted him, "Your Majesty, don't be in a hurry. Fortunately, the doctor arrived in time, and the father-in-law has already given the medicine. Take a good rest for a few days, and you should be fine."

Concubine Zhou gritted her teeth, "Li Yanshu!"

If she hadn't interfered with it today, how could the current situation be like this?

Her father was suffering outside the palace, but she herself was suffering and couldn't tell!

Unexpectedly, the voice just fell, but there was a palace maid reporting outside the door, "Your Majesty, the rich father-in-law of Qianming Palace is here."

Fu Hai is here?

Concubine Zhou's heart tightened.

Fuhai has never been to Zhongcui Palace before. Could it be... the emperor noticed something and came to ask her for a crime?

Although he was very guilty, he still couldn't see him, so he hurriedly collected his expression and adjusted his clothes and makeup, saying, "Come in, please."

The maid outside the door was busy answering, lifted the cotton curtain, and saw Fu Hai, who was all dressed up, came in with a scroll in his hand.

The moment he stepped into the hall, Fu Hai saw the broken vase on the ground at a glance, and hurriedly pretended to be stupid and yelled, "Which servant lost his hand and asked the imperial concubine to break such a good vase?"

Concubine Zhou felt more comfortable, she put on a smile and said, "Isn't that clumsy Xiuyun? Later on, I will punish her to clean the yard. What is Fu Gonggong doing here?"

Fu Hai hurriedly presented the scroll in his hand, and said, "This servant is ordered by His Majesty to deliver this to Your Majesty. Your Majesty said that you must ask your Majesty to hang it in the hall and read it carefully."

reel?

Concubine Zhou was taken aback.

This was the first time His Majesty gave her something.

I heard that the first emperor once gave the concubine a palace training picture at the end of each year to show his importance. Is this true?

She was overjoyed, and the anger she had just dissipated immediately, and she hurriedly said with a smile, "Thank you for the reward, Your Majesty, I will definitely pay attention to it."

After speaking, he asked someone to reward Fu Hai.

Fu Hai Xie En resigned, he had to hurry up, lest the city gate caught fire later and the fish in the pond would be affected.

Fu Hai had just left the door, and Concubine An, who got the news, rushed over.

Looking at the scroll on the table, she enviously said, "This is the picture of the palace training? After ascending the throne today, the empress is the first to get this thing, which shows your position in His Majesty's heart."

Concubine Zhou's heart had already gone to the sky, and she said proudly, "This palace is the head of the harem, so of course your majesty will give it to me first."

"That's natural."

Concubine An nodded in agreement, and asked curiously, "But I don't know which allusion His Majesty gave you? Please open your eyes when you call me a concubine."

Concubine Zhou herself wanted to know, so she ordered the maid, "Open the scroll."

The court lady should be, busy and careful to do so.

Concubine An rushed forward, but was taken aback.

I saw that it was not a picture at all, but two lines of poetry——

"Those who do ten evil things will receive evil retribution; those who do ten good things will receive good retribution."

Everyone is stupid.

Concubine Zhou Gui was also dumbfounded, "What does this mean? Does it mean that this palace has vicious thoughts and heinous thoughts?"

There was a moment of silence in the hall, An Pin bit the bullet and comforted, "Your Majesty is overthinking, this is just a poem from the past..."

"You think I don't know!"

Concubine Zhou gritted her teeth, but isn't that what this poem means!

"What a Li Yanshu, you can make His Majesty humiliate me like this, I must not spare her!"

Concubine An hurriedly persuaded, "Your Majesty, although this matter is too much, but she is in favor now, please don't offend Your Majesty."

Concubine Zhou said angrily, "Then I will be **** off!"

And the account of the chestnut cake!

After getting angry for a while, she suddenly sneered and looked at An Bin, and said, "The queen mother said in front of me that day that you were smart, so I would treat you kindly even if I wanted to come to this palace, but now you are trying to think of a way for me, how can I get rid of that lowly Li Yanshu?" people?"

Concubine An paused, and didn't dare to disobey for a while, so she had to respond, "Share the worries for the empress, and I will do my part as a concubine."

Leaving Zhongcui Palace, An Pin went back to her own palace with a lot of worries.

The palace maid Liu Di worried, "The imperial concubine is forcing you like this, what can you do..."

Who in this palace doesn't know that Li Guiyi is being favored right now, to harm her is against His Majesty, and last time Concubine Li was thrown into limbo!

An Pin didn't ask her to continue, but said, "I know what's in my heart."

Her grandfather, Shang Shu of the Ministry of Rites, was an old minister of the Empress Dowager, and she naturally had to rely on the Empress Dowager in the palace. If she didn't listen to Concubine Zhou, wouldn't it be tantamount to committing suicide?

Liu Di was still not at ease, "But once exposed, will she be like Concubine Li?"

At that time, Concubine Li was loyal to Concubine Ning, but when something happened, Concubine Ning put all the blame on Concubine Li.

An Pin sighed, "At the critical moment, anyone would abandon the car to keep handsome, but Li Pin is stupid, I don't think I will be like her."

As he spoke, he suddenly remembered something, and asked again, "By the way, who was sitting at the same table as Li Guiyi on the night of the New Year's Eve banquet?"

~~

At night, Jin Yiwei came to the king to report the situation of Duke Cheng'en's mansion.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, after eating two chestnut cakes today, Cheng Engong developed symptoms of seizures within half an hour. He stayed in the concubine's room for two hours. After coming out, he was already exhausted. The ritual of worshiping the first hall every day."

Yu Wenlan understood.

What that stupid woman of the Zhou family committed today is enough to confiscate the family and destroy the noble.

But today it is under the banner of the queen mother, and if he wants to pursue it, the queen mother will definitely come out to defend it.

Therefore, let it ferment for a while, and it will not be too late to settle the accounts together in two days.

But at the same time, he fell into doubt again.

This matter was verified by Yan Shu again.

What magical powers does she have?

Wouldn't there be eyeliner placed in Zhongcui Palace, right?

Also, what is that melon she called...?

Ning Mei thought for a while, he couldn't help calling the little **** Fu Bao to his eyes, and asked, "What is Li Guiyi doing today?"

Fu Bao replied honestly, "Guiyi will not go out again except for going to the Qianming Palace today."

Yu Wenlan asked again, "Then...how did you eat?"

Today is a vegetarian all day, I wonder if she has mentioned delicious food?

Fu Bao said, "Guiyi's three meals today are the same as usual, but just now I asked Shang Shan to deliver some supper."

Night snack?

Yu Wenlan raised her eyebrows, he's not here, so it's convenient for her to have supper?

He asked curiously, "What supper?"

Fu Bao was also surprised, and said, "Guiyi ordered some tofu, eggplant, potatoes, sweet potatoes, etc., but they were all raw."

"raw?"

Fu Bao nodded and added, "By the way, Guiyi also ordered two steamed buns."

Steamed bun?

Yu Wenlan frowned, what does she want these for?

Are you starving?

After thinking about it, he suddenly said, "I'm going out for a while."

Fu Bao was taken aback for a moment, and was about to remind the king that it was the fasting period right now, so he couldn't go to the harem...

But before opening his mouth, Master Fu Hai stopped him with a look.

—This is the emperor, the whole world belongs to others, so why don’t you just do whatever you want?

Fu Bao understood in seconds, and hurriedly lowered his head, not daring to speak too much.

Fu Hai hurriedly fetched a robe for the king to put on, and personally sent the man to the gate of the hall.

At this moment, the king said in a deep voice, "Keep the door shut."

The two hurriedly responded.

~~

In the dead of night, Yu Wenlan came all the way to Ganlu Hall, but he didn't see the guards at the gate of the hall.

The lights in the hall were still on.

After walking a few steps inside, I could faintly smell a scent at the tip of my nose, and when I looked carefully, I saw a window in the hall was open, and I could vaguely hear voices.

The further you go in, the more pronounced the fragrance becomes.

He took a few steps to the top of the steps and pushed open the door.

I saw some smoke in the hall.

"These slices of potatoes are ready, eat them quickly. Well, the tofu is so tender, it would be even better if it was a little more spicy. By the way, some steamed bun slices, baked and crunchy..."

Obviously, it was her voice.

Yu Wenlan followed the sound and walked over, only to find that under the window, several people were surrounding a charcoal cage. On the charcoal cage was an iron plate, and something was roasting on it.

And that's where the scent comes from.

"His Majesty!"

Lian Dong Lian Xin and the others saw him first, and stood up in shock, their faces turning pale.

And someone who was still frying tofu raised his head slowly and finally found him.

Yan Shu asked in surprise, "Your Majesty? Why are you here?"

Why is he here?

Yu Wenlan looked at the food on the iron plate, but saw that the tofu was golden in color, sprinkled with some red chili noodles, and yellow pepper powder, which looked good when mixed together.

There are also some potato chips, golden and oily.

There are a few roasted soft sweet potatoes beside the charcoal cage, exuding a sweet taste...

Yu Wenlan turned his eyes to her again, and clearly saw the remaining seasoning on her lips.

Heh, she's having a good time when he's not here?

But after looking around, he didn't find any... melons.

Winter melon, pumpkin, watermelon and Japanese melon are not found in this hall.

Just wondering, she heard her muttering in her heart, 【Why are you looking at me like this? Is it against the law to eat some Teppanyaki? 】

Yu Wenlan, "..."

Yes, there is indeed no palace rule against eating supper.

And because of the three-day vegetarian diet, many people in the palace would have extra meals at night.

But like her... this is the first time seeing Yu Wenlan.

He said, "What are you doing?"

But Yan Shu smiled slightly, "The concubine is eating teppanyaki, do you want to try it, Your Majesty?"

Teppanyaki?

Yu Wenlan frowned, that's it, sitting on the edge of the charcoal cage and eating it now?

He tried to ask, "Is it just these dishes? Nothing else?"

Yan Shu wondered why this person asked such a question? Is it for fishing? See if she breaks the fast to eat meat?

She said, "Nowadays there is a fast in the palace, even the dining room does not have any meat, the concubines really only have vegetables here."

Yu Wenlan didn't know what she meant by "fishing".

But obviously that wasn't what he wanted to know.

So he asked again, "Did you eat any melons and fruits?"

Melons?

Yan Shu became more and more confused.

In this season, apart from oranges and apples, there is nothing else to eat in the palace. The only bit of honeydew melon is closely related to the Queen Mother and him, even if she wants to eat it, she can't get it!

However, she enjoyed eating the colored melons today.

Tsk tsk, Mr. Cheng En's precocious heart was tricked by his unlucky daughter, and today he really almost died on the concubine's bed.

The old rascal was overturned, and when she thought of his crooked mouth and eyes being carried out of bed, she couldn't help laughing to death hahahahahaha.

Yu Wenlan, "???"

The author has something to say:

A certain emperor: Damn it! Such an interesting melon is not for me to eat together! !

Yanshu:? ? ?

A certain author: Babe, you have gone astray...
