"I haven't eaten it either!" Di Xin also felt a little hungry. Momo happened to be assigned to the palace. Seeing the interaction between the two, he seemed to feel some warmth and understood something. It seemed that in the world of these two, other people were superfluous. He said in surprise,"Imperial Concubine, did you cook this for His Majesty? No wonder His Majesty's icy face disappeared!" "Ah?" Di Xin looked at him strangely.
"Get lost! Can't you see that I'm picking up girls? What else could he do here besides destroying the scenery?”Before Di Xin could finish his sentence, Mo Mo had already put the pot back to its original position. Then, she suddenly dashed a distance away and dodged far away. "Consort Su Da, y-y-you didn't say so earlier! Consort Su Da, hurry up and eat the delicious food. This servant is leaving, this servant will get lost now…"Oh my god, Consort Su Da actually knows how to cook personally!! Even she didn't know that Consort Su Da knew how to do servant's work. In the end, when the Emperor shouted that she was hungry, Su Da ran to the kitchen in the middle of the night to cook delicious food for others. Moreover, she cooked such a big table!
Fortunately, she was a little slow just now and did not cause any unknown trouble. Otherwise, she would probably be a dead dog now! " Momo, wait a minute. I really can't finish it…" Su Da wanted to say something more, but Momo had already run out of the kitchen. She was faster than a rabbit.
Di Xin turned to Su Da in confusion." What happened? Did this guy have a stomachache? He actually left without eating anything?" Su Da expressionlessly glanced in the direction that Mo Mo had left. So tactful! Don't delay this princess's pursuit of handsome men! She picked up the noodles and walked to the table. "Who knows? Perhaps she suddenly felt that she was not hungry anymore. Don't just stand there, come over." The one who went back and hid behind the door to peep: …" She was not hungry anymore! They were all stuffed by Emperor Xin's display of affection! Hungry was definitely a huge misunderstanding!
Di Xin obediently followed behind Su Da, who had a body that made people jealous, and sat down at the dining table. Su Da filled two bowls and stuffed a pair of chopsticks into Emperor Di Xin's hands. She then ordered,""Taste it!" Her Emperor Di Xin was already famished. He pointed at what was left in the pot and said,""Are these all mine?" Now, there was finally something to eat, and it smelled so delicious. His Majesty didn't even use a bowl and directly ate in big mouthfuls with the pot. "Phew…It's so hot!" Di Xin was scalded on the first bite, but he only stuck out his tongue and continued impatiently. Su Da frowned." Slow down. No one is snatching it from you." If he ate so fast, his stomach would swell later.”Only then did Di Xin pay more attention to his eating manners, but he still ate like a whirlwind and finished it in no time.
"It's…too delicious! Su Da, you're really talented. You even cook so well that your mouth smells so good. What else can you do?”There was a hint of admiration in Di Xin's eyes. A woman like Su Da was simply all-rounded and perfect to the extreme! The corners of Suda's mouth curled up slightly, but she quickly regained her cold expression and snorted." Your Majesty, do you think that everyone is like you?”
"You…!" The handsome and elegant Di Xin was almost angered by her. Her mouth was so vicious, and she could not be compared to him. As for the perfect goddess in her heart, it seemed that it was definitely a huge misunderstanding! Su Da's vicious mouth alone was enough to offset all her good points. However, after eating her food, Di Xin decided not to argue with her.
"There are many things that Your Majesty doesn't know. Isn't it just cooking? What kind of talent is that?" Su Da replied arrogantly. Su Da was leisurely preparing the rest of the dinner in the kitchen. As she smelled the alluring smell, Di Xin's eyes lit up when he saw his imperial concubine's skillful cooking skills. Her imperial concubine was so amazing. It smelled so good! In a short while, three dishes and one soup were ready. Looking at the dishes on the table, Di Xin's appetite was piqued.""Delicious." Su Da looked at the standing palace maid and Mo Mo."You guys sit down and eat with me!”"No, Imperial Concubine, you are the master and this servant is a servant. How can I sit at the same table as you?”The palace maid hurriedly waved her hand to refuse.
"Sit down and eat together. It's so boring for the two of us to eat together.”Su Da smiled innocently and said,"Imperial Concubine, the real Imperial Concubine, this servant can stand!"”The palace maid and Mo Mo knelt on the ground. "Stand up!" The smile on Di Xin's face didn't change at all, but his voice was filled with determination. The palace maid and Mo Mo stood up, but their heads were lowered.
"Don't kneel down to me. I still want to live for a few more years. Girl, according to the rules, your name should be given by this young lady, right? Before this lady decides to leave, you shall be called Da Niu!”Su Da joked," Big girl, listen carefully. I'll tell you again. From now on, my words are orders. You say whatever I say and do whatever I do! The consequences of going against my family's words are not something you can bear, do you understand!”
"Also, if I tell you to sit, then sit. What about hierarchy? It's all because of people's vanity. Big girl, aren't you human? Why do you have to be inferior to others?”
"In the future, I won't allow you to kneel for no reason. You're my family. Who can make you kneel? There were rumors outside the palace that His Majesty only spoke to women. Most of the rumors came from Xiqi. The so-called only women's words were not aimed at Emperor Xin, but at the national customs of Yinshang. In other words, Zhou Bishang discriminated against women even more. Yin Shang offered sacrifices to their ancestors, and the female owner shared the sacrifice. Zhou did not sacrifice to his mother. The bad habits of merchants 'sons relying on their mothers to be noble and Zhou mothers relying on their sons to be noble have been passed down to this day. The previous emperor of Great Shang had a woman who liked to be a marshal, but there were no female officials in the Zhou Dynasty. His Majesty valued talents and only recommended virtuous people. If His Majesty had an outstanding woman like Fuhao from the late emperor's era who could sweep the four seas, why would His Majesty have to personally conquer the four seas and eight wastelands? This group of pedantic nobles had nothing to do but eat and drink, so they only learned from hearsay. This lady could only laugh!”
Hearing Su Da's words, Di Xin was also shocked. "Yes, Niangniang, Da Niu, I, I understand!”
"Okay, then sit down and eat together!”Da Niu regained her innocent look. She was just a teenage child. "Sit down. Don't be like this after you leave this house. Only by distinguishing between superior and inferior in front of outsiders can you establish your authority for the imperial concubine!”Di Xin still spoke. "Your Highness, these dishes are really delicious. What are they called?”
"This dish is called Spicy Boiled Fish, this one is boiled chicken, this dish is called Royal Roast Goose, and this soup is called Plum Cabbage Soup.”Su Da introduced them to Da Niu one by one." Wow, it's so delicious. Imperial Concubine, you're really amazing!"”
"Of course. Otherwise, how could I be your imperial concubine?”Su Da replied without any modesty. "Hehe, why aren't you being modest, Imperial Consort?" Seeing Su Da's arrogant look, Di Xin's depressed mood became lively.
Di Xin smiled." There are prophecies in the world, but they are not accepted by the world. If they could be understood by the world, there would be no prophet. For example, when eating, they know to put food into their mouths instead of their noses. Everyone knows that. Therefore, although this judgment is correct, it is not considered a prophet. And the great cause of the world must be an important unknown to the world. Only then can one become a true prophet. Such a great sage has not awakened and is misunderstood by the world. Therefore, my reform is destined to be difficult and dangerous!”
Was that so? Of course. " I believe that no matter how correct one's actions are, there will always be people who oppose them. Sometimes, the sage's words are no better than a witch's. If a witch wants you to eat your food, there will be many people who will do so. They think that eating this kind of hardship can eliminate disasters and karma. Such people cannot be educated. They can only be said to be superstitious and lose themselves. The other kind of people could understand, but they were enslaved by reason. There were often many people who caused you to die, but they kept saying that it was for your own good! There were two reasons for doing anything. Why should one distinguish right from wrong? It was to prevent such people from being blinded by fallacy. As the ruler of the world, if everyone tried to explain, even if he lived ten more lifetimes, he wouldn't be able to explain it all. This was because China was so vast that there were countless people who were confused by fallacies. They could only do what they wanted and let others explain it.”Is there anyone as smart as me in this world?
"Finished eating? After eating, she quickly went back to rest. It was already midnight.”Su Da urged. Di Xin put down his bowl and chopsticks and returned to his bedroom. After entering the room, Su Da said coldly,""This Young Lady hasn't decided whether to marry you or not. If you want to be my husband, you can't have three wives and four concubines. Before this Young Lady changes her mind, it's better to sleep separately!”The large hand on the little woman's waist suddenly tightened. A burning sensation rose from the spot he touched, causing Di Xin to shiver. That burning body thing! This was the method Bird Uncle taught him to cripple his cultivation! What a scam! Su Da didn't dare to say anything more. She quickly climbed into bed and wrapped herself in a cocoon with the quilt. "Your Majesty, your 3,000 beauties are still waiting for you to work overtime. Hurry up and go. Good night!”
Second Brother Jiang rushed to the palace of the Lu Kingdom and fainted! This flag escape consumed too much spiritual power. His cultivation was already so poor that it could not withstand the consumption.
"Originally, Queen Shen Jiang had something to discuss with His Majesty, but now that it's fine, she has returned!”These days, Queen Shen Jiang had been in the mansion when she had nothing to do. However, Second Brother Jiang had flown for two thousand miles. Shen Jiang naturally knew that this guy had consumed too much spiritual power. It was inevitable that he would fall asleep the moment he returned to the palace of the Lu Kingdom. It was no big deal. If his cultivation couldn't go up, he would be like this. It was rare for the two of them to meet. Now that Second Brother Jiang had woken up and taken the initiative to look for Queen Shen Jiang, how could the maid Little Qing let go of this opportunity to promote Second Brother Jiang and Queen Shen Jiang?
He smiled and pulled Second Brother Jiang back."Since you want to see Queen Shen Jiang, why must you hold back? I know you are all shy. Especially Queen Shen Jiang, who had come back and forth many times. She wanted to act cool but could not bring herself to do so. Let's go, this servant will help you knock on the door." Second Brother Jiang frowned. However, as soon as he stepped on it, he was stopped by the guards at the door.
"Unauthorized people are not allowed to approach the Green Phoenix Hall. Servant girl Xiao Qing, you should know the rules of the palace.”"Of course I know, but His Majesty isn't a random person! He wants to see Queen Shen Jiang. Please inform him.”In fact, Queen Shenjiang was usually very strict with the servants in the residence, and the rules in the palace were also very strict. Not to mention the Green Phoenix Hall, even the Liuhua Villa did not allow servants to approach or enter at will.
"The Queen has gone out and is not in the palace.”
"What? He went out?" Little Qing was disappointed. Second Brother Jiang had seen Queen Shen Jiang in the Green Phoenix Hall just before he woke up. Why did she leave so quickly? Did Queen Shen Jiang know that Second Brother Jiang had woken up? "Where did Queen Shen Jiang go? When are you coming back?" The guard did not answer, but he looked at the maid, Little Qing, with a serious expression.
What was wrong with this maid, Little Qing, today? How could he be so rude? He was actually bold enough to ask about Queen Shen Jiang's whereabouts. This was something that no servant would dare to do, let alone Little Qing, who had served Queen Shen Jiang for so many years. Little Qing, the maid, suddenly realized that she had overstepped her boundaries. She also felt that she had gone crazy trying to promote the relationship between Second Lord Jiang and Queen Shenjiang. She had actually forgotten her identity as a maid. She sighed deeply.
"Your Majesty, since Queen Shen Jiang is not in the Green Phoenix Hall, let us return first!”Second Brother Jiang didn't know what was wrong with him. When he heard the guard say that Queen Shen Jiang wasn't in the Cyan Phoenix Palace, he felt empty inside. He glanced at the thick and heavy door of the Cyan Phoenix Palace, turned around, and returned to Liuhua Villa with his maid, Little Qing.
Back in Liuhua Villa, when Second Brother Jiang and his maid Little Qing went to Qingluan Palace to look for Queen Shen Jiang, Queen Shen Jiang had already left. He could only return to Liuhua Villa. What was wrong with this little girl? Was it intentional or? Second Brother Jiang lay on the bed in boredom. He tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. He felt so bored that he was about to mold. When he was a hostage in the Great Shang Dynasty, he was almost tortured to death by all kinds of unexpected disasters. After returning to China, it was difficult for him to even see his wife. He was so bored. The Feng Shui had indeed changed in another place, but when would they be able to live their lives here?
Humph! He couldn't think about these things. Shen Jiang must have misunderstood him, but he didn't do anything wrong. The maid, Little Qing, could not bear to see Second Brother Jiang being so bored alone."Your Majesty, why don't you let the guards take you around the palace! After you left, Queen Shen Jiang kept the palace in good order and even added many flowers, grass, bridges, and flowing water. You've been back for so long, but you haven't left Liuhua Villa or visited the palace!”
Second Brother Jiang thought that this was a good idea. He heard that the palace was very beautiful, so he thought that it would be a vacation. But in fact, Second Brother Jiang was completely wrong. The palace of the Lu Kingdom had expanded a lot. It was even bigger than the palace that Second Brother Jiang used to live in. After walking around, Second Brother Jiang was exhausted. The buildings and decorations in the palace were also the most magnificent, prosperous, and stylish. In such a magnificent courtyard, Second Brother Jiang saw many common trees and bonsai, as well as a lot of flowers and plants.
The place was filled with green stone and glazed tiles. What kind of person was Queen Shen Jiang? Did he have to change his style to live in such a place? "Does our queen like rockery, flowers, and birds? Is it because spending money makes our hearts ache?”
"Stepmother Wang is busy with matters and doesn't have time to worry about these. We servants did it ourselves, we didn't invite craftsmen in. Although we worked hard, the Queen gave us a raise.”The guards were very competitive. Second Brother Jiang knew that it was a tactful way to cover up for the Queen. If the Queen wanted to build some rockery, flowing water, flowers, birds, and fish ponds in her residence, she could just instruct the guards and servants in the palace to do it. It would definitely cost money. There was no need for her to worry about it. Knowing that he wouldn't be able to get anything out of her, Second Brother Jiang didn't ask anymore. However, the management was not bad. As long as people were not cooped up, everyone had something to do.
"Buy some flower pots and seeds?”Shi Wei smiled and didn't refuse.”So easy to talk to? "The sooner the better. Also, I saw some empty space in front of Liuhua's Building.”The guard thought for a moment,"Your Majesty, please instruct me." However, it was fine as long as it was not too much and not too close to the Queen's Green Phoenix Hall. If the species of flowers and plants in the Queen's Green Phoenix Hall is wrong, they will fire us!”
Originally, anyone who wanted to touch a piece of soil or a piece of wood in Liuhua's small building had to get the Queen's permission. No matter what, he had to ask for the Queen's permission before he could reply to His Majesty. But for some reason, when the guard thought of the King's previous question about whether the Queen liked rockery, flowers, and birds, he took the initiative to agree.
I wonder what His Majesty is going to plant in front of Liuhua Villa? The flowers planted last time weren't right, so Her Majesty the Queen asked her people to pull them all out. She also said that she had to ask for instructions on how to plant flowers in the future! The queen's life seemed to have always been filled with high-end things. In fact, he was also looking forward to what it would be like to have a few more pots of flowers in the palace.
He wondered what the King's expression would be when he saw what the Queen had grown. It had to be said that the guards were very efficient. In the morning, Second Brother Jiang told them about this. In the afternoon, he asked someone to bring the things that Second Brother Jiang wanted. Since they had already gotten the items, Second Brother Jiang had nothing better to do. He worked together with Little Green and the guards.
The flower pot was naturally used to grow flowers. If Queen Shenjiang did not like these flowers and trees and thought that they were too cheap, the palace could exchange them for something else, but she could plant a few pots in her own house. She was also a person who liked flowers and birds very much. As for the empty space in front of Liuhua's Small Building…The Queen intended to use it to grow high-level medicinal herbs. After walking around the palace, Second Brother Jiang had already figured it out.
Second Brother Jiang was originally an optimistic person. Thinking of this, he was full of hope for his future life in this world. Second Brother Jiang and Little Green had been busy with the flowers and plants for the entire afternoon. Even a few servants who were idle in the residence came to help. They were very busy. Second Brother Jiang felt that this kind of life was not bad. There was no palace strife or house strife. It would be great if he could live a peaceful life like this.
However, reality proved that the next day was not what he wanted. Trouble was coming! When the head of the guards came in, he said that his mother-in-law had sent someone over and asked Second Brother Jiang to go over tomorrow morning. This was a summons from his mother-in-law! Second Brother Jiang frowned. Why didn't he push the blame to Queen Shen Jiang? This mother-in-law didn't even think of coming when she got married. Why did she want to come here now? Wasn't it obvious that the man who wanted to humiliate Queen Shen Jiang had already looked down on her and was blindly trying to marry Shen Jiang to the Crown Prince of the Great Shang Empire, Yin Jiao? You're about to have a baby, but you still don't give up, saying that you're messing around when this king isn't around!
Furthermore, this particular king had specially chosen a time when Queen Shen Jiang was not in the palace to summon him? Who couldn't tell why? Second Elder Jiang had previously learned from the head of the guards that Queen Shen Jiang was rarely in the palace. She could only be in the palace for two or three days a month. Since she had left today, there was no reason for her not to come back tonight.
Who knows, a certain king might hold a banquet for him the next day. How good would it be if Queen Shen Jiang could accompany her! Second Brother Jiang wasn't being timid. He was the king of the Lu Kingdom, so what was there to be afraid of? She would only be at a disadvantage here. It had nothing to do with her. She was marrying Princess Shen Jiang, not her mother. However, it was true that he was afraid of trouble.
If she still planned to stay in this palace in the future, this mother-in-law of a certain king couldn't offend this king too much. She might even release beastie and let it scare her into a panic. He did not know what kind of spell was waiting for him the next day. He might even wear it on his cheap mother-in-law! At least, judging from the reactions of the maidservants, Xiao Qing, and the others, it seemed that Queen Shen Jiang's attitude towards him was not bad. With Shen Jiang around, he might be able to block a lot of trouble for him. After all, she was his queen now."Head of the guards, will the Queen come back tonight?”
Although he knew that it was impossible, Second Brother Jiang still asked. The head of the guards was a shrewd person, so he naturally understood what Second Brother Jiang meant."The secret guards will regularly report to Her Majesty the Queen about the matters in the residence. Her Majesty the Queen should know tonight that a certain king summoned our king.”
The head of the guards answered very tactfully. It only meant that the Queen would know about this matter, but whether she would come back or not was not something that his identity as the head of the guards could predict. Second Brother Jiang was a little disappointed, but he also had some expectations. After thinking for a while, Second Brother Jiang suddenly said,"Send a message to the Queen?"
