Early the next morning, Min Cairen and Wu Changzai arrived at Jinxiuxuan.

It is said on the surface that he was giving Acuo some pastries to try, but in fact he wanted to find out what happened yesterday—

"What does Your Majesty look like?

I heard that he is very tall and has a burly figure. Does he have no beard?"

"Is he really fierce?

How did you think of sending him fish yesterday?

Does Your Majesty like to eat fish?

Acuo, what did Your Majesty say to you?

You tell us."

Looking at the two curious little heads in front of him, Acuo chewed the straw raincoat cake and answered them one by one.

"Your Majesty is very tall, I don't even reach his shoulder! He doesn't have a beard, he looks so pretty! Well... He wasn't very fierce yesterday, but he didn't like to talk much. I spent most of yesterday eating, so I didn't say a few words..."

When Min Cairen and Wu Changzai heard this, their curiosity became even heavier, and their eyes looked at Acuo became a little more envious.

Although they were afraid of Your Majesty in their hearts, the women who entered the palace had more or less dreams of loving concubines in their hearts.

After Jinxiuxuan left, Min Cairen was eager to try it out, "The rumors in the palace cannot be believed. They all said that Your Majesty is violent and terrible, but you see, Acuo and Your Majesty had a meal, isn't it okay?"

Wu Chang was biting his lip, "But...but...if His Majesty happened to be in a good mood yesterday..."

"Why do you always have the ambition to others and destroy your own dignity?

Is your parents sending you into the palace to let you live a life of squandering?

Such a beautiful face was wasted.”

Min Cairen gave her a blank look.

"What are you going to do with Sister Min?"

Wu Chang lowered his eyes awkwardly.

"Well... I'll make something to send to His Majesty?"

Min Cairen frowned and thought for a while, but after a long time, he didn't think of what to send, so he waved his hand and said, "Go and think about it slowly when you go back."

Meanwhile, there is another place in the harem.

Chu Xianxian dressed very beautifully today, wearing a moonlit silver thread ball blessing Ruyi brocade robe, with a low hair bun, two green and white beads, and an jadeite silver silk eight-claw chrysanthemum hairpin was inserted diagonally.

The pointed melon-shaped face is light makeup, and the cherry lips are little by little, which is full of charm and grace, just like a fairy descending to earth.

Yun Yan behind her was carrying a food box of carved red lacquer and nine. The inside was divided into three layers, one layer was crab-steamed orange, the other layer was rose lotus paste cake, and the bottom was a yam red date black chicken soup.

These dishes were cooked by Chu Xianxian himself. The black chicken soup alone lasted for three hours. When it was scooped out from the cup, the bones were stewed so crispy and tasty.

Seeing that he was getting closer to Zichen Palace, Chu Xianxian's smile became deeper and deeper.

Yesterday, Shen Danruo sent her a bucket of fish, and His Majesty summoned her to serve the meal.

The delicacies I made myself today will definitely compare Shen Danruo.

She held the hem of her skirt slightly and stepped gently onto the layers of white marble stairs.

Just as I finished my last step, I heard a cry of begging for mercy-

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I didn't mean it. I don't know that you are allergic to pine nuts..."

Chu Xianxian's eyelids jumped suddenly, and she looked up and saw two eunuchs dragging a woman dressed as a palace concubine.

Yun Yan behind her exclaimed, "Master, isn't that new Bai Cairen?"

When Yun Yan reminded me, Chu Xianxian also remembered that there was indeed a white talented man in the new palace concubine. But seeing the person in front of him, he was a little afraid to confirm for a while.

After Chang Xi asked someone to drag Bai Cairen down, he also noticed Chu Xianxian, "Oh, isn't this Chu Ronghua? I'm a servant to pay tribute to Chu Ronghua, Ronghua will be blessed."

"Get up, father-in-law Changxi."

Chu Xianxian knew that Chang Xi was the eunuch around His Majesty, and his attitude was a little more polite, "Who is Bai Cairen?

She is..."

Chang Xi said excitedly and shook his head, "I don't know what's going on. Today, all the masters and ladies in the harem are particularly active. From the time when His Majesty's court has come, several young masters have brought things to His Majesty.

The first few people were fine. When he arrived at this Bai Cairen, His Majesty had no patience anymore. He happened to have made pine nut osmanthus cake.

Your Majesty is allergic to pine nuts, but it is well known to the whole palace. She didn't ask when she brought something to her..."

Hearing this, Chu Xianxian couldn't help but scold the Bai family idiot, but she looked panicked and worried, "What will Your Majesty plan to deal with this Bai Cairen?"

Chang Xi threw the whisk off and said, "Reward thirty boards, deprived of their position, and entered the cold palace."

Chu Xianxian's heart suddenly tightened. It was just that he gave the wrong plate of pastries, so he was punished so severely?

"Chu Ronghua, you..." Chang Xi's after glance at the food box held by Yun Yan, "You are not giving it to His Majesty, right?"

Chu Xianxian was stunned for a moment, her smile on her face became a little stiff, and she didn't know whether it was to admit it or denied it for a moment.

"If these are also prepared for Your Majesty, then I'll forgive you for saying more words. Your Majesty is not upright now, so you'd better not get in."

Chang Xi reminded.

Chu Xianxian squeezed out a reluctant smile and replied, "Yes, thank you for your reminder."

She turned her head and looked at Yun Yan. Yun Yan immediately took out a ingot of silver from her sleeve and stuffed it into Chang Xi's hand.

Chang Xi accepted it without changing her face and laughed, "If Chu Ronghua had no other instructions, will the servant come in and serve His Majesty first?"

Chu Xianxian nodded.

As soon as Chang Xi entered, Yun Yan couldn't help but say, "Master, are we going back like this now?"

Chu Xianxian's face was deep and she whispered, "Otherwise, what about you, go up and get into trouble?"

Yun Yan choked and bit her lip and said aggrievedly, "Isn't this aggrieved for you? You got up early and worked hard all morning to do these things. Your Majesty didn't see them... What a pity."

"I'm in a hurry this time."

Chu Xianxian took a deep breath and said lightly, "Let's go, go back."

——

If the news that the Shen family Acuo served the meal ignited a glimmer of hope for favor for the concubines in the harem, then the news that the talented man Bai was sent to the cold palace was a basin of cold water, which directly extinguished the little flame of favor for the fire.

For a moment, those who make pastries, embroider purses, and those who practice their throats and prepare to come to meet by chance all stopped -

Let’s just live a good life now compared to living in the cold palace with half-invasion.

On the other hand, when the eldest princess learned that her younger brother had summoned Shen Meiren to serve the meal, she immediately felt relieved that she had been raising pigs for many years.

She immediately waved her arms and ordered the nanny in charge, "Go, go to the warehouse of our palace to pick some jewelry that the little girl likes, and then choose some brightly colored brocades to send them all to Jinxiuxuan."

The nanny in charge said in surprise, "Your Highness, you gave me a bunch of rewards not long ago, and I'll give them one today?"

"Take it, of course you have to give it!"

The eldest princess folded a Wei Zi peony in a relaxed mood, put it under her nose and sniffed it, "Although it's just a meal, it's a good start."

I have already served the meal, is it still far from sleeping?

The eldest princess said this, and the nanny in charge stopped talking, and went to prepare the gift quickly.

In the evening of that day, the rewards were delivered to Jinxiuxuan.

Acuo looked at another pile of good things, his eyes straightened, "Why did Your Highness the Princess send so many things over? There are too many of them, I really can't ask for them..."

The nanny in charge bent down and said, "My beauty Shen doesn't need to refuse. These are all the things that Your Highness rewards you. You can accept them."

"But Your Highness has given me a lot of gifts before, so I just gave her a bucket of fish. She is so polite."

Acuo was very embarrassed. She felt that the eldest princess was too generous.

"Miss Shen accompanied His Majesty to have a meal yesterday. The eldest princess was very happy to find out."

The nanny in charge said.

Acuo was stunned and suddenly woke up. It turned out that what Aunt An Xiu said was true. If you want to repay the eldest princess, just be considerate of Your Majesty.

When the things were all in the warehouse, the nanny in charge bowed, "Then the old slave will say goodbye first."

Acuo nodded slightly and said, "I would like to ask the nanny to say thank you to the eldest princess for me, and tell me to help me tell her that she doesn't have to be so polite. I will be your majesty's concubine when I enter the palace, so I will naturally be more considerate of Your Majesty."

The nanny in charge smiled, "It's good for beauty Shen to have this kind of heart. I will bring you words."

After the nanny in charge left, Acuo looked at the sun setting sky, and remembered the talented man Bai who Mu Qing and the others mentioned.

You can't send things randomly anymore, fortunately Your Majesty is not allergic to fish.

She breathed a sigh of relief and turned back into the room.

The afterglow of the sunset dyed the horizon red. Yuan Xun came down from the martial arts venue and immediately a little eunuch came forward to bring sweat towels and tea.

Chang Xi bent his body and reported, "Your Majesty, one hour ago, the eldest princess sent someone to give a lot of rewards to beautiful Jinxiuxuan Shen."

Yuan Xun changed into a sweaty dress, and his arms were strong when he raised his hand, and his face was still cold. "It seems that my sister likes her very much."
