Chapter 353 Tianxuan’s absence is a big loss
On the second day when the foreign mission arrived, Mr. Wei told the steward before going to the court early to prepare a carriage for Xiaoduo and the young master. The result was the same. All the work in vain.
Eunuch Fu from the palace personally came to pick him up outside the palace. He also asked Xiaoduo and the two of them if they had eaten for breakfast. If not, His Majesty had already ordered the imperial kitchen to prepare it.
Hong Xiaoduo said that he had already used it, but if he had time in the palace, he could also taste the breakfast in the imperial dining room.
Her response made Eunuch Fu feel more and more happy the more he saw it, what a good girl, she said what she thought freely, but unfortunately, His Majesty could not keep her.
"Ms. Hong and Mr. Kaiyang, we are mainly discussing business matters with the foreign missions today. I have appointed a few adults to wait for you two in the palace. If there is anything you need to pay attention to, they will tell you two. "On the way, Eunuch Fu said again.
"This is best. After all, Kaiyang and I don't understand business matters." Hong Xiaoduo still told the truth. If you don't understand, you don't understand. You can't pretend to understand.
"By the way, Miss Hong, you see His Majesty values you so much, why don't you consider staying? If you don't want to be a female official, just do it, and His Majesty will not force you to do so." Eunuch Fu Can't help but persuade.
In these years of working as an errand beside the emperor, who hasn’t seen this before? This is really the first time I have met a girl like Hong Xiaoduo.
Not to mention her straightforward temperament, the most special thing about her is that in her eyes, there seems to be no distinction between high and low status.
When others saw him, most of them would fawn over him because he was working as an errand around the emperor. Of course, he knew very well in his heart that those people would fawn over him in all kinds of ways in front of his face, but secretly despised him as a eunuch.
But she didn’t. She was not afraid, disgusted or flattering towards him, a disabled eunuch. The look in his eyes and the tone of her words also made him feel comfortable. Only at that moment, Eunuch Fu felt I am treated as a human being.
So, Eunuch Fu felt very sorry that the emperor could not keep this man in the capital.
Furthermore, he believed that the emperor also saw how different this girl was, because she had no special reaction towards the emperor. Not only was she not nervous or afraid, but on the contrary, she even dared to ask the emperor for a thousand gold coins. .
The emperor himself said later that this girl should have known his identity that night.
"The capital is a wrong place. I really don't want to stay. I have no choice now. One thing happened after another, so I have no choice but to stay temporarily.
Eunuch Fu, from outside the capital The world is so wonderful, I feel more comfortable anywhere than here." Hong Xiaoduo shook his head.
"That's not it. After listening to the reports from the ministers, the Sa family found that many places in various places are not at peace. There are thieves and bandits. It can't be that the officials below are lying, right?" Eunuch Fu hurriedly said said.
"They didn't lie. Thieves and robbers are nothing. We have encountered pirates, and they can harm innocent people. When I meet my mother, she is nothing. It is not the end." Kaiyang couldn't help but interjected.
When Eunuch Fu heard this, pirates? She looked at Hong Xiaoduo with even more admiration: "Ms. Hong may not like to be a civil servant, but what about the military attache? If you want to, go and tell His Majesty."
Hong Xiaoduo smiled and shook his head and said, "I'm not interested in any kind of official position. Without an official position, I feel light. Once I become an official, I have to be controlled by others. It's boring."
Eunuch Fu still wanted to persuade him, but it was already time.
Hong Xiaoduo and Kaiyang thought they were outside the palace gate, but after getting off the carriage, they discovered that they were already inside the palace, and not far away was the Jinluan Palace.
Emma, is this a through train?
In the costume dramas I watched before, it seemed that the carriage stopped outside the palace gate and then took a sedan chair inside!
Many ministers were already standing outside the Jinluan Palace.
Eunuch Fu led Hong Xiaoduo and Hong Xiaoduo to the hall next to the side hall, and ordered people to go to the imperial dining room to inform them of the delivery of court food.
"It's just the two of us, it's quite clean, let's have a good taste of the breakfast in the imperial dining room." Hong Xiaoduo was talking to Kaiyang, when he looked up and looked at the row of palace maids lining up outside the palace and walked in, he was stunned. .
Just having breakfast, such a big scene?
The palace maid at the front of the queue has already arrived at Hong Xiaoduo and his wife’s table, while the one behind her is still outside the palace gate!
At this time, a woman who claimed to be the food minister personally picked up the food on the tray in the hands of the palace maid and placed it on the table in front of Hong Xiaoduo and Kaiyang. After putting it down, she introduced it and then personally gave it to the two of them. Scoop out a small bowl.
The first breakfast course is eel noodles. The waitress also introduced the cooking method, saying that the eels should be steamed, boned and meat removed, then put into the noodles, then add chicken soup and knead evenly, roll it into dough, and cut it into thin strips. Add chicken juice, ham juice and mushroom juice and bring to boil. Hong Xiaoduo and I took a bite, looking at each other and nodding. The noodles were very chewy and indeed very delicious.
There was just a little bit in the bowl. I wasn’t satisfied with it yet, but it was taken away?
The second course is warm noodles, then eel noodles, and then various exquisite pancakes, such as waffles, shrimp pancakes, beef pancakes..., whether they like the taste or not, it is the same for everyone. Sample them in a small portion, and the portion will be gone in a few bites.
Next, crystal-skin wontons, crab roe soup dumplings, pink coats, mince cakes, squab porridge...
"It's a big loss that your second brother is not here." Hong Xiaoduo whispered. He was at odds with Kaiyang.
Kaiyang nodded in agreement. His second brother Tianxuan was responsible for everyone's food. As Hong Xiaoduo's wallet became more and more bulging, his cooking skills also changed from the original to digging wild vegetables and following them randomly. Make rice and vegetable porridge, cook noodles and vegetables into a paste, stir and add some salt until cooked, and gradually start to figure out how to make various simple dishes.
The waiter introduced how to make every breakfast dish, but Hong Xiaoduo and the two felt it was unnecessary. They just love to eat and have no interest in how to make it.
Even if you only give a little bit of each item to two people, there are so many varieties. A few bites of each item will soon fill your throat.
Hong Xiaoduo looked at the team that still didn't see the end of the line, and looked at Kaiyang to make sure that he couldn't eat anymore, so he had no choice but to speak: "Sister, these are delicious, but the two of us can't eat anymore. , Thank you sister for your thoughtful hospitality. Thank you for your hard work.”
She didn’t know whether the words of thoughtful hospitality she just used were appropriate or not. Who cares, it doesn’t matter if a modern Chinese teacher gets angry when she hears it. , I couldn't hit her even if I wanted to, and the guy on the dragon throne wouldn't chop her head off because of this.
After saying that, without waiting for the other party to respond, he got up and walked out of the hall with Kaiyang.
While walking, I looked at the maids carrying breakfast. They all looked pretty good. Is this what the emperor picked out?
As soon as I arrived outside the palace, I saw Eunuch Fu hurriedly coming towards me: "My dear, how are you using it? Is it still to your appetite?"
"To be honest, father-in-law, it's a bit exaggerated. It tastes good, but I just don't feel comfortable." Hong Xiaoduo told the truth to avoid being like this in the next few mornings.
After saying that, I thought, in this case, it would be better to eat with Kaiyang outside the palace and then come in.
Eunuch Fu asked again and responded resolutely, "I'm full."
Anyway, I have already tasted the breakfast in the imperial dining room.
When Eunuch Fu heard this, he was startled. He complained in his heart to His Majesty, saying that this is inappropriate. It is useless to use this method to win over others!
"Has the missionary arrived already?" Hong Xiaoduo asked next, seeing that he was leaving in such a hurry just now.
"We will be here soon, but for some reason, Tan Jijiu from Qishan Academy is also here, saying he wants to learn more." Eunuch Fu also said to Xiaoduo casually.
Hearing this, Hong Xiaoduo turned his head and looked at Kaiyang beside him, thinking, what else could it be, he must want to come and see Kaiyang!
Back at the Wei Mansion last night, Hua had told her and Kaiyang that Qishan Academy had sent people over...
When I opened my eyes in the morning, I picked up my phone and habitually looked at the backstage of the house. I saw the message from Red Sleeve Book Friend 02334131. Banshee really has mixed feelings. "The Princess Is So Awesome" was written in 2011, and it is almost 13 years ago today.
There are actually some book friends who still remember that they searched websites one by one based on the keyword "Princess" and spent a whole day fishing. Really, Banshee was so moved and excited.
Thank you for remembering, thank you for liking!
You said you didn’t expect that the author is still writing. Banshee is actually very ashamed. She has been writing for more than ten years, and she writes. My level has not improved so much ￣□￣｜｜, but I also want to say that time flies, thank you for still being here, thank you for still liking me (づ￣3￣)づ╭～
