The noodles are still easy enough.
But in a short time, Gu Yu and Bai Lu left and returned.
After putting together the things on the table, Gu Yu took a bowl of noodles from the food box with both hands and put it in front of Song Jinning.
In Bai Lu's hand was a saving box with vermilion lacquer and gold painted peonies and butterflies.
Put it on the table and open it, and you can see that it is divided into seven grids. There are different side dishes in each grid.
Not only the sauced beef that Song Jinning ordered, but also cold shredded chicken, sauced duck, assorted pickles, etc. Just looking at it makes people feel their index fingers move.
Song Jinning was really hungry, took the ebony chopsticks that Gu Yu handed over, and immediately started to eat with her head down.
The soup base is indeed the pot of chicken soup that old Zhao Diao made yesterday, it looks very clear, but the aroma is very strong.
As the name suggests, the silver thread noodle is not only thin, but also very white with distinct roots.
There was also a fried egg lying on the surface.
Song Jinning likes to eat older fried eggs, and Lao Zhao knows her preference, so this fried egg is fried golden on both sides, and it seems that you can hear a crisp sound when you bite into it.
Gu Yu and Bai Lu are fine. Although the two of them are busy today, they are not the protagonists after all. So first of all, the makeup on the two of their faces is not thick, and second, they are not afraid of messy makeup, so today's three meals a day are as usual.
Even when Gu Yu and Bai Lu went to the small kitchen just now, they asked Lao Zhao for a plate of pastries.
Old Zhao was busy going down there, and the two of them had already wiped out the plate of pastries in the time it took to load the dishes. So the two of them are not hungry at all now, so naturally watching Song Jinning eat noodles is not greedy.
But Lee Seung-sun is different!
Today he is also one of the protagonists. Although I had eaten breakfast when I got up early, I was always told like a marionette to do this, and lunch and dinner were useless to do that.
It's just that he is stronger. He is also very unwilling to lose face in front of people he hates, so even though he is already hungry and his chest is stuck to his back, when Song Jinning asked if he should also give him a bowl of noodles, he was immediately very cold refused.
I didn't think there was anything at first, thinking that I would definitely be able to carry it through. But I don't know whether it's because I'm so hungry, or because the old Zhao that Song Jinning said is really good at cooking. There is still some distance from Song Jinning, but the fresh smell of the chicken soup, the flavor of the stewed beef Five fragrances, and even the slightly sour smell of assorted pickles rushed towards his nose.
It's really hard. It was difficult not only that he could hear the slight gurgling sound in his stomach, but even...
Li Chengxuan got up abruptly from the edge of the bed, and strode out of the hall with a calm face.
Gu Yu was shocked.
Watching him walk out of the palace gate, she asked Song Jinning in a low voice: "Girl, ah, no, ma'am, Your Majesty is gone. What should I do?"
Song Jinning thought to herself, what should I do? Isn't it a good thing he's gone
"Let's just go."
Song Jinning picked out noodles with chopsticks and called her in a good mood, "You go make the bed."
Not only did she get up very early today, but she was also tired all day, so she had to go to bed early.
Gu Yu: ...
On the wedding night, the groom left, but the bride, far from being sad, was quite happy to see it.
Girl, should I say you are stupid, or have a big heart
However, he had no choice but to respond, and turned around to make the bed.
On the other side, just as Li Chengxuan strode out of the palace gate, Zhou Jing who was standing in the corridor immediately stepped forward and called out, "Your Majesty?"
In addition to the usual respect, there was also a hint of probing in the voice.
Because I don't understand why this master came out at this moment. And the look on his face is not good at all...
Li Chengxuan didn't stop walking, with a calm face, he walked forward with big strides.
Zhou Jing had to trot all the way to barely keep up with him.
Seeing that Li Chengxuan was about to leave the hospital, Zhou Jing's heart finally reached its peak.
Even if he has to be punished, he still has to remind him of some things.
"Your Majesty, today is your wedding night. If you leave the empress and leave like this, and if word of it reaches the ears of the queen mother, I'm afraid..."
You can know the elegant meaning by hearing the string song, His Majesty is a wise man, so he doesn't need to say the rest.
Li Chengxuan stopped when he heard the words, but his handsome face became more and more gloomy.
Zhou Jing looked at his nose with his eyes, and his heart with his nose. He was as stable as a wooden stake, and he couldn't be moved by a strong eight-level wind.
Anyway, as long as he couldn't see the anger on His Majesty's face, he could pretend not to know that His Majesty was angry.
After a moment of silence, he suddenly heard Li Chengxuan's calm voice.
"Is there anything to eat?"
Zhou Jing was stunned for a moment, and then he came to his senses.
"Yes, yes!"
The reason why this master of feelings came out at this moment was because he was hungry.
But didn't the two maidservants next to the Empress just now entered the palace with a box and a food box? Why, could it be that the Empress dared to eat alone, and her Majesty would not be able to starve them
Tsk, this queen empress is really as bold and arrogant as the rumors say, she doesn't take the emperor seriously.
Zhou Jing slandered in his heart, but on the surface he quickly called the two small eunuchs over, and ordered them to go to the imperial dining room to get food immediately.
Unlike Song Jinning's small kitchen in Weiyang Palace, the imperial dining room is quite a distance away, so even though the two eunuchs trotted all the way, it took about two quarters of an hour before they came back.
And after returning, the two little eunuchs immediately knelt down in front of Li Chengxuan with a plop.
"Your Majesty, when the servants went to the imperial dining room, the stove had already been turned off. Although there are two rotating inner eunuchs, it must take a long time to start the stove and wash rice for cooking. Fortunately, steaming There are still two plates of pastries in the drawer, fearing that His Majesty will be anxious, the servants brought these two plates of pastries first, please Your Majesty to use first."
On the day of His Majesty's wedding, everything in the imperial dining room was tense for the first few days, and today it was even more busy all day.
After finally handing over the wedding banquet, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing that the night was getting dark, I only thought that His Majesty must be worth a thousand gold at the moment of Chunxiao, so I extinguished the fire and went back to rest, leaving only two inner prison guards on duty. But who knew that this master was hungry in the middle of the night and wanted to pass on the meal.
The two little eunuchs didn't expect that this errand would lead them to do this, and they both looked sincere and fearful, for fear that Li Chengxuan would get angry.
Li Chengxuan was indeed very angry.
Hungry people don't have a good temper after all. What's more, Li Chengxuan is still the emperor aloof. Even if it is inevitable to take some anger against some ministers, it must still be superior to these servants in the palace.
"It takes time to wash rice and cook, so why don't you let them serve a bowl of noodles? There's no such thing as a workaround. What do I need you for?"
With a yell, the two inner eunuchs knelt down.
But Li Chengxuan changed his mind and thought again, so what if the people in the imperial dining room serve a bowl of noodles? They sure don't have chicken broth as a soup base right now. I'm afraid that even the beef in sauce, shredded chicken in cold sauce, duck in sauce, and assorted pickles are not prepared for the time being, and they will definitely not be so delicious in your mouth.
Li Chengce absolutely refused to admit it, just now in the palace, when he smelled the scent, his mouth was almost drooling.
His self-control can never be so bad! !
After getting angry, he told Zhou Jing, "Look what kind of pastry it is."
Zhou Jing hurriedly responded respectfully.
With the hand of the little eunuch, he lifted the lid of the food box and took a look. Seeing a plate of sweet-scented osmanthus flower cake and a plate of jujube paste crisps, I immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Although their majesty was not showing any emotions in the court, but as an old man who had served him for more than ten years, Zhou Jing knew that he was actually a sweet tooth.
Busy talking about these two plates of pastries.
Li Chengxuan snorted lightly, but did not speak. But Zhou Jing knew that this was considered a pass.
He asked cautiously: "Slave sent these two plates of pastries to Weiyang Palace?"
Just when the two little eunuchs went to the imperial kitchen to pass on the meal, Li Chengxuan had already walked to a pavilion outside Weiyang Palace and sat down.
But Zhou Jing definitely hoped that he could go back to Weiyang Palace now. Otherwise, if the Empress Dowager Ming'er pursued her, he was worried that he would also suffer.
Li Chengxuan was unwilling to go back. At least not now.
Previously, Song Jinning invited him to eat with chicken soup and silver thread noodles, and a box of various side dishes, but he refused with great backbone. Now eating two plates of pastries in front of her...
No matter how exquisite and unique these two plates of pastries are, he always likes to eat them, but eating them in front of Song Jinning still makes him feel inferior.
Just said coldly: "No need."
While speaking, he sat down on the stone bench.
Seeing this, Zhou Jing hurriedly picked up the cake and put it on the stone table.
It was March, and when the sun was shining brightly during the day, it was still a bit warm, but as soon as night fell and the wind picked up, it immediately began to cool down.
Zhou Jing ordered the little eunuch to close the windows on all sides so that there would be no air leakage in the pavilion and it would be warmer.
Turning around, he saw Li Chengxuan taking a piece of osmanthus flower cake and handing it to his mouth.
Although Li Chengxuan was always very elegant and calm when eating, but seeing him like this, Zhou Jing felt that it was not easy for His Majesty for no reason.
Although he is the ninth-five-year-old, his wife cannot be chosen according to his own preferences. Even on this wedding night, they had to go to this small pavilion to blow the cold wind.
I don't know what happened in the palace just now.
Seeing that Li Chengxuan no longer took pastries, Zhou Jing hurriedly served a bowl of hot tea with both hands.
Taking advantage of Li Chengxuan drinking tea with his eyes downcast, Zhou Jing thought about it, but still persuaded him softly.
"Your Majesty, the sage has a good saying. When the heavens are about to send a great mission to the people, they must first suffer their muscles and bones, starve their bodies, and empty their bodies. Otherwise, you should go back to Weiyang Palace later?"
"The Queen Mother just said a few days ago that once you get married, you will be allowed to take charge. These ninety-nine steps have been taken, and you must not fail in this last step, don't you think?"
When the first emperor died, Li Chengxuan was only eleven years old. The Huns invaded the territory outside, and the Red Lotus Sect was rampant inside. Although the late emperor appointed four ministers to assist Li Chengxuan, people's hearts are unpredictable, and some of them deceived Li Chengxuan. When he was young, he gradually emptied Li Chengxuan in matters of government affairs.
At this time, it was the Empress Dowager Song who stepped forward and eliminated the disobedient courtiers one by one.
Although under her tyrannical means, the whole court is awe-inspiring, but power is like poppy and poppy, once it is contaminated, it is very easy to sink and get lost. After that, the Empress Dowager Song ruled the government for six years without any intention of returning it.
After hundreds of officials wrote letters one after another, the Empress Dowager Song finally let go.
If Li Chengxuan marries Song Jinning, her niece of her mother's family, as the queen, after the wedding, she will return the government to Li Chengxuan, and live in the palace by herself for the rest of her life.
It was half coercion, half lure, even though Li Chengxuan had to agree to this marriage, how could Li Chengxuan not feel humiliated under such circumstances
