Yun Shang returned to Weiyang Palace, asked someone to change clothes, changed into regular clothes, lay down on the soft couch, picked up a book and flipped through it, and didn't make a sound.
Qianzhuo didn't know what Yunshang heard behind that, his eyes were full of curiosity, but he just looked at Yunshang's sullen look, knowing that it was probably not a good word, so he didn't dare to touch Yunshang's brow, so he pulled Huaer to the door outside.
Hua'er learned the conversations of those people vividly, and finally couldn't help but clicked his tongue: "Although the words were cryptic, I understood them clearly, this is clearly to send those princesses to our Majesty's harem What does it mean to be a concubine? Earlier in the palace, I saw that those people were not good people, but I didn't expect them to still have such thoughts."
Qianzhu also frowned: "I don't know what is good or bad, I thought that being a princess can win His Majesty's favor like our empress."
Qianzhuo opened the curtain and glanced inside, only to see Yunshang half lying on the soft couch, her gaze fell on the book in her hand, but it has been so long, but the book in her hand has not been turned.
Qianzhuo knew that she had something on her mind, so she frowned and sighed: "Listen to what you just said, judging from what they said, they seem to have figured out a way to get the three princesses in. I don't know what they are planning..."
Hua'er nodded: "I think it probably means that you want raw rice to be cooked?"
Hua'er has always spoken boldly: "Didn't one of the princesses say it, saying that His Majesty has never tasted the ecstasy of other women, and if he has, he will never forget it."
"The other also said that our Majesty is a responsible person, as long as he becomes his woman, he should also be responsible. The meaning revealed in this sentence should be that meaning?"
These two sentences were twisted out by Hua'er in such a way that Qian Zhuo's face couldn't help but change a bit: "These people still say they are princesses, I have never seen such a shameless princess. Listen , What are they talking about? Is it something a princess should say?"
"Yes." Hua'er nodded: "I don't know how the folk customs of Youyue Kingdom and Yihai Kingdom have to be civilized to have such a shameless princess."
The two of them were filled with righteous indignation for a while, Hua'er thought for a while, then lowered his voice and asked Qian Zhuo: "Sister Qian Zhuo, tell me, should we remind the empress to be careful of what those princesses are doing? means?"
Qian Zhuo looked through the bead curtain, and took another look at Yun Chang on the soft couch.
Yun Shang seemed to have returned to normal, she turned a page of the book in her hand, and her eyes moved up and down the book, before turning another page after a while.
"No need." Qianzhuo shook her head: "Our empress has always been transparent, there is no need for us to remind these things, maybe she already has a countermeasure."
Hua'er agreed with Qian Zhuo's words, and just nodded slightly: "Yes."
"Come on."
Yun Chang in the palace suddenly opened his mouth.
The two quickly opened the curtain and walked in.
"Ma'am."
Yun Shang didn't raise her eyes either, she just ordered directly: "Make me a pot of tea."
"Okay." Qian Zhuo quickly responded, "What kind of tea would you like to drink?"
Yun Shang pursed her lips: "Hawthorn tea."
"Ah?" Qianzhuo was stunned suddenly, and looked at Yunshang in disbelief: "Your Majesty is talking about... hawthorn tea?"
"Yeah." Yun Shang nodded, with an ordinary look on her face: "Hawthorn tea is tea made from hawthorn. I remember there should be dried hawthorn slices, right? Just use that to make tea."
"But aren't the hawthorn slices soaked in medicine?"
"Making tea is also effective." Yun Chang said with a casual expression, "Digesting food and invigorating the stomach, promoting qi and dispelling blood stasis."
"..." Qian Zhuo thought about the taste of the hawthorn, and couldn't help but frowned: "Hawthorn slices make tea, it should be very sour, right? Do you want your servant to add some sugar?"
"Add sugar?" Yun Shang raised her eyebrows: "What do you add sugar for? Adding sugar will halve the effect."
Now that Yunshang said so, Qianzhuo naturally didn't dare to disobey easily, just nodded in response, and retreated.
There are indeed hawthorn slices in Weiyang Palace. When His Royal Highness was still living in Weiyang Palace, the small kitchen would make some hawthorn slices from time to time to make hawthorn cakes. His Highness always liked it.
After a while, Qianzhuo brewed a pot of hawthorn tea. After brewing, Qianzhuo quietly took a small cup and poured a little to taste.
With just one sip, she couldn't help frowning.
acid.
So sour.
Why would the empress like to drink something like this
Qian Zhuo secretly thought in his heart, but he didn't show the slightest expression on his face. He only sent the hawthorn tea into the bedroom, then took the cup and gave Yunshang a cup.
Yun Shang picked up the cup casually and put it to her mouth.
Qianzhuo opened her mouth, wanting to persuade her, but Yunshang had already taken a quick sip.
And still a big mouthful.
Qianzhuo's mouth was still slightly open, and he looked at Yunshang fixedly, but seeing that Yunshang didn't even frown, he took another sip.
…
Is the empress not afraid of acid
Xiaozhuo thought secretly in his heart.
Yunshang noticed Qianzhu's gaze, and raised her head suspiciously: "Why are you looking at me like this? But do you have anything to report?"
Qianzhuo shook his head and smiled sarcastically: "No, nothing?"
After a pause, he finally couldn't help but ask: "Ma'am, is this hawthorn tea really so delicious?"
"It's delicious." Yun Chang responded calmly: "It's almost time for lunch, isn't it? You go to the imperial dining room to see what's there to eat today, and ask the imperial dining room to prepare some dishes for me."
"Yes, what do you want to eat?"
"West Lake vinegar fish, sweet and sour pork tenderloin, hot and sour lotus root."
Qian Zhuo didn't feel that there was anything wrong, so he just responded and backed out.
As soon as he walked to the gate of Weiyang Palace, he saw Luo Qingyan walking over with the palace servants.
Qian Zhuo hurriedly saluted Luo Qing: "My servant has seen Your Majesty, Your Majesty is blessed and safe."
Luo Qingyan's footsteps stopped: "Where are you going?"
"Returning to Your Majesty, the empress will send your servants to the imperial dining room to order some dishes."
"Oh?" Luo Qingyan raised his eyebrows, and when Qianzhuo mentioned Yunshang, there was a smile in his eyes: "How many dishes do you want? What did the empress order?"
"West lake vinegar fish, sweet and sour pork tenderloin, hot and sour lotus root?"
Luo Qingyan couldn't help frowning when he heard the words: "Only these three things?"
"Just these three things."
Luo Qingyan was a little surprised: "The queen never likes to eat sour food, why are these three dishes all sour?"
"Ah..." Only then did Qianzhuo come back to her senses, where did she feel something was wrong just now.
Then think of the hawthorn tea that Yun Shang asked her to make.
Qianzhuo finally came to his senses: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid your empress is... jealous."
