Chapter 104

Aunt Zhang heard that she couldn't hold back the blood any longer, she vomited with a wow, and threw her head up to the sky.

"Plop--" With a loud noise, Xia Zixuan saw the usual maids who flattered and flattered Aunt Zhang avoid them like birds and beasts, and let Aunt Zhang fall to the ground.

Yingxiu had been looking at Xia Zixuan worriedly, and now she rushed over in a hurry, grabbed Xia Zixuan's arm and ran back, until she returned to Xia Zixuan's room, she patted her heart and said, "You scared me!" !Xiaoxi, the Dugong really likes the dim sum you made!"

Xia Zixuan looked at her innocent face, even the black pupils were filled with children's curiosity,

With a slight smile on her lips, Xia Zixuan touched her head and said: "As far as my poor cooking skills are concerned, Du Gong is a celebrity around the emperor. I have never seen anything. How can I cook crude food for a little maid like me?" Have a special liking? It’s just a pretense to show someone who cares.”

"Oh, that's it." Yingxiu's eyes flashed, and she quickly recovered her innocence, and said with regret: "Actually, I really think Xiaoxi's dim sum is delicious, if the duke doesn't like it, let it be. Why do you still have to make a picture that you like to eat and make troubles! Isn't this intentional to cause trouble for you?"

"Yingxiu, you're thinking too much." Xia Zixuan stretched her waist, and said indifferently: "After a while, I guess I'll forget about it. They're talking a lot right now, but it's not that kind My father-in-law sent me back on the seventh day of the seventh month, did this cause a misunderstanding?"

"What's the misunderstanding? Xiaoxi, you are so stupid, then Grandpa Chuqi specially warned Aunt Zhang in order to prevent her from punishing you!" Yingxiu looked envious, leaned over and whispered: "You just met the superintendent today. Lord, but have you seen what the governor looks like?"

Xia Zixuan slowly opened her eyes and looked at her with a puzzled expression.

Yingxiu didn't seem to care whether Xia Zixuan answered, but continued to say to herself: "I heard that Dugong is even more beautiful than Yan Ruqing, the number one beauty in our Tianqi Kingdom. How can Yan Ruqing get the title of the most beautiful woman? Xiaoxi, tell me, is Du Gong as good-looking as the rumors say?"

Xia Zixuan hooked the corners of her lips, sat up, put her hands on her chin and said, "Duke is so handsome!"

Yingxiu seemed to be listening attentively, but it was a pity that after waiting for a long time, Xia Zixuan had nothing to say except for one sentence, and immediately went over dissatisfied and said, "Then tell me, what is so good about it? It's the eyes that fascinate you." , or a straight nose?"

Xia Zixuan laughed and said, "Oh, I didn't look carefully, but I knew that I was shocked at one glance, so I didn't dare to continue spying on Duke Du's prosperous beauty, so as not to offend Duke Du!"

"Oh, I won't tell you anymore, you're just an elm lump!" Yingxiu sat up unhappy, patted Xia Zixuan's arm and said, "If the governor asks you to go to Tianyin Palace again, you Remember to tell me, I will go there with you!"

Xia Zixuan pursed her lips and did not respond, but looked at Yingxiu strangely.

Yingxiu was a little flustered by her clean eyes, but she pretended to be innocent and said, "What's wrong with you, Xiaoxi? We are good sisters, we agreed to have the same blessings and share the same hardships, You don't want to learn from Minghui and Caidie, they seem to be good sisters, but secretly trip each other up!"

Xia Zixuan chuckled, waved her hand and said, "I know! Yingxiu, you are kind to me, I will remember it in my heart! Don't worry, as long as the Duke sends someone to let me go to Tianyin Palace, I will call you Come on, let's go together!"

After hearing this, Yingxiu showed a satisfied expression, and said happily: "Then we have a deal! Xiaoxi, I will go back first, and I have to review this afternoon's class!"

"En." Xia Zixuan responded lightly, and when she heard the footsteps going away, she jumped up like a carp, touched her flat stomach, and was about to go out to the small kitchen to find something to eat.

Speaking of which, she was busy all afternoon making cakes for Gong Shuo, and everyone in the kitchen was lucky enough to taste the cakes, but she didn't have time to eat them herself.Well now, it's past the meal time, let's not say that Chuxiu Palace didn't have the thoughtful rule of leaving food for the maids after the meal time, and Chu Qi made such a fuss, she was able to find two steamed buns from the small kitchen. They are all showing mercy!
The cook, the fire girl, etc. in the small kitchen all rested. After Xia Zixuan slipped in, she found that there were not many ingredients left, and the rest were only some rotten vegetables, pig offal, or some ribs.

Xia Zixuan snorted coldly in her heart, walked over to dig out some flour, and picked out half a radish, a small group of cabbage, and two eggs from the rotten leaves.

The dough was rolled into noodles, and Xia Zixuan cooked egg noodles for herself and fried shredded radish.While he was slurping his noodles, there were loud shouts from outside.

"It's not good! The Yanxi Palace is flooded—" A loud shout from outside pierced the silent night sky.

Xia Zixuan finished the soup slowly, then got up and walked out of the small kitchen.

Aunt Zhang was alarmed, and the maids who had already rested also walked out of the room, and went out to watch curiously.

"Auntie, this servant is going out to inquire about it." The eunuch of Chuxiu Palace reported to Aunt Zhang, and then trotted out.

"What are you doing here?" Aunt Zhang's eyes flashed, no matter what happened to the Yanxi Palace, why did the water leak, they have to close the door of the Chuxiu Palace, it would be best not to wade into the muddy water .If it can't be avoided, you can only push one out to be a scapegoat!
When thinking of this, Aunt Zhang suddenly turned her head and looked at Xia Zixuan who had just come out of the small kitchen after eating and drinking.

Xia Zixuan seemed to feel something about Aunt Zhang's sinister eyes, she grinned indifferently, waved her little hand and said, "Hi, Aunt Zhang, good evening!"

"Hmph—" Aunt Zhang stared at her coldly, turned her eyes away, and said in a deep voice, "Have you mastered today's lessons? Why don't you hurry back and study?"

The maids who were waiting to be trained dispersed, and the eunuch who went out to inquire came back, sweating profusely and said: "Auntie, something is wrong—"

"What are you talking about, what is it?" Aunt Zhang reprimanded with a sullen face, pursed her lips, "Why is there water in Yanxi Palace?"

The Palace of Yanxi Palace is full of the concubines of the previous emperors. After ascending the throne, they posthumously named their biological mother as empress dowager, and the rest of the concubines became concubines accordingly.

It's just that the former emperor worked hard to govern and was not very close to women, so the number of concubines in the harem was very small.Moreover, the first emperor valued love and nostalgia for the past, and the concubines in the harem were basically the old people around him.

Therefore, the three concubines and concubines in Yanxi Palace are all very old and never get involved in the affairs of the harem, they just chat in Yanxi Palace.That is to say, only during the holidays can they show up at palace banquets.

So Yanxi Palace suddenly flooded, Xia Zixuan really didn't know what was wrong.

After all, the three concubines in the Yanxi Palace had no children, and the first emperor was also a few concubines who kept their duties.This is also the reason why Jinshang treats them kindly after succeeding to the throne.

It's just that although Li Qianxun, the emperor of Yanxi Palace, seldom intervened, he ordered the Ministry of Internal Affairs to use everything that should be done, and it could not be deducted.It stands to reason that the servants in the palace should be more cautious, how could there be a leak?

When thinking this way, a large number of imperial guards have already come in one after another, and the leader is still a big acquaintance - Shi Feiluan.

Seeing this, Aunt Zhang's complexion changed, and she went up to greet her eagerly and asked, "Commander Shi, what's the meaning of this?"
