Antique food: The general dotes on his lucky wife

Chen Xi saw the people around her looking at her and whispering to each other, and naturally knew that they were all talking about her.

But she really didn't care, so she followed the little eunuch all the way to the Royal Garden.

Fortunately, there is still sunshine at this time, and it is not too cold even if you stay outside. When the sunshine is not so warm later, it will be almost time to take a seat.

In ancient times, there was no electric lighting, and lighting could only rely on candles. There were skilled craftsmen in the palace who would use mirrors to increase the brightness of the room, but it was still incomparable to daylight. Therefore, palace banquets did not last too late, usually when it was getting dark. When the time comes, the palace banquet in Xushi will be over.

Chen Xi walked in the Imperial Garden and focused on the various flowers and plants in the garden.

If there was any place in the capital where the flowers and plants were the most precious, it would be in the palace. Now that she had finally come here, she naturally wanted to take a good look at the rare and exotic plants in the palace. How would it compare to her research on the farm?

Chen Xi was sincerely observing the flowers and plants, but in the eyes of others, Chen Xi was ignored and pitifully had to pretend to look at the flowers and plants in order to not look so embarrassed.

At this time, a group of people gathered around the Yunling County Lord, all of whom came to ask her about Chen Xi, because everyone knew that except for Mrs. Dingbei Hou Shizi, only the Yunling County Lord had visited Chen Xi these days.

"What kind of person is this Huaishan County Princess? Looking at her walking posture, she is not that vulgar. It seems that the rules taught by grandma are good!"

"You can tell just by walking. You will know whether she is a real lady or a fake lady at the palace banquet."

"Hey, do you know the rumors about her and the Crown Prince of Zhongyong Hou Mansion? Are they true or false?"

As soon as these words came out, several noble ladies were present

His eyes moved rapidly, and he wanted to know the answer, but he never had the nerve to ask.

"Yunling, how did you go to find out the news that day? If she can successfully marry Prince Zhongyong, what will you do?"

The head of Yunling County has already eaten two meals according to the recipe given by Chen Xi. To be honest, she is not full!

But the recipe specifically states that you must not be very full, but at most eighty full. After all, according to the recipe, you have to eat four meals a day with midnight snacks!

But she felt that being eighty full was the same as not eating at all. Her stomach had been growling for a day, and she was naturally in a bad mood.

At this time, she heard that someone was deliberately laughing at her. How could she be so nice to others!

"What should I do? What does this matter have to do with me? What do you mean by this, do you want to smear my innocence?"

Although the Yunling County Lord and Mrs. Zhongyonghou are very close, everyone knows what it means, and they secretly laugh at Yunling County Lord for wanting to eat swan meat, but on the surface, this is an "unspeakable secret", after all The head of Yunling County still wants to save face!

After being retorted by the Yunling County Lord, the noble lady's face immediately turned ugly, and she curled her lips and snorted coldly: "Who doesn't know that you are close to Mrs. Zhongyonghou? Hey, that's not Mrs. Zhongyonghou. She's here. I'm afraid she's here. Find yours!"

As soon as Yunling turned her head, she saw Mrs. Zhongyong Hou walking towards her, and she immediately frowned.

Speaking of which, during this period, she wanted to try the recipe Chen Xi gave her to see if it was useful.

If it works, then she doesn't need to count on Mrs. Zhongyonghou. When she loses weight, she will naturally find a good husband for herself.

If it doesn't work, then she will try to catch Zhongyong again

It’s not too late, Mrs. Hou!

So she doesn't plan to trouble Lord Huaishan these days, but judging from Madam Zhongyonghou's attitude, she might come to question her!

Sure enough, Chai Manru, the wife of Marquis Zhongyong, came closer and said with a smile: "Master Yunling County, can you lend me a step to speak?"

The Lord of Yunling County followed Mrs. Zhongyonghou to the side. Madam Zhongyonghou quickly changed her face, frowned and said: "Master of Yunling County, I heard that you went to the residence of the Lord of Huaishan County yesterday, but left quickly. , what's going on? Does the Huaishan County Master dare to be rude to you, the Yunling County Master?"

County Master Yunling rubbed his belly, "Mrs. Zhongyong Hou, I haven't been feeling well recently and I'm too lazy to pay attention to County Master Huaishan. When I get better, don't worry, I will definitely teach her a lesson!"

Chai Manru looked at the Yunling County Lord with disdain flashing in his eyes: "Yunling County Lord, I see you are so strong, why do you feel uncomfortable?"

"Mrs. Zhongyonghou, how have you seen that I am strong? I often have chest tightness, shortness of breath, dizziness, and now I feel weak. Forget it, I'm going to find a place to have a good rest."

Mrs. Zhongyonghou watched dumbfoundedly as the Lord of Yunling County left "dundundun", and was confused about the situation for a while.

What's going on? During this period, she had already tricked the Yunling County Lord into obeying her words. Why did this fat man suddenly change his attitude towards her?

Could it be that something happened yesterday that she didn't know about? Be sure to send spies to check it out when you get back!

In the palace, everyone's every move is restricted.

A clan daughter like the head of Yunling County is a little more comfortable, but Chai Manru, a foreigner, has to be careful at all times.

At this time, a palace maid suddenly came over and said, "Hou

Madam, the second prince and concubine please go over there and talk. "

Chai Manru immediately put on a surprised smile and left with the little palace maid.

Chen Xi watched Mrs. Chai of Zhongyong Hou leave and silently withdrew her appraising gaze.

She noticed Mrs. Chai as soon as she appeared, and wanted to see what this vicious stepmother who forced Lin Changqing to leave the Hou Mansion looked like.

She looks weak on the outside, but the occasional sharp eyes prove that this woman is not as weak as she appears.

In addition, Chen Xi smiled when he saw the Yunling County Lord ignoring Mrs. Zhongyong Hou.

It seems that her recipes have captured the heart of Yunling County Lord. I believe it won’t be long before she can conquer her first “enemy” in the capital!

After a while, there were more and more people in the imperial garden, and the maids came to guide everyone to their seats.

All palace banquets are held in the front hall, with people sitting inside and outside.

For example, Chen Xi could only sit in the corner of the hall, but he was still much better than the people sitting outside the hall.

Because he was very close to the Yunling County Lord, Chen Xi always kept an eye on the Yunling County Lord's behavior.

When he saw that the Yunling County Lord wanted to target big fish and meat, Chen Xi's eyes would drift over.

The head of Yunling County has been paying more attention to Chen Xi since he took the seat.

Because her recipe states that you must eat strictly according to the recipe to achieve results. Once you break the rules, the recipe must be restarted!

The head of Yunling County thought that today was the first day anyway, so why not just break the precept and start again tomorrow?

But as soon as she had this idea, her eyes couldn't help but look at Chen Xi, and she found that Chen Xi was staring at her with a slight condemnation. Unknown to the Yunling County Lord,

Why did he immediately retract his fat hand?

Chen Xi couldn't help laughing.

But she could also see from it how much the Yunling County Lord wanted to lose weight!

In order to lose weight, she is willing to try any hopeless method, and is even willing to listen to the words of people she hates!

Chen Xi firmly believes that if she can help Yunling County Lord lose weight smoothly, then Yunling County Lord will definitely become one of her unbreakable partners in the capital!

Chen Xi just paid attention to the Yunling County Lord and looked at the people around him.

As she expected, in such an occasion, she was not an important role at all, just a foil, so she enjoyed the singing and dancing in the palace with peace of mind, ate the palace delicacies, and compared the differences with Chen Ji's delicacies. It’s very satisfying to develop a few recipes in my mind!

And her comfort was clearly seen by the emperor and empress sitting high up.

The emperor and empress looked at each other and saw curiosity in each other's eyes.

So soon, the emperor summoned the eunuch and whispered something. Then, under the gaze of everyone, the eunuch came to Chen Xi's table.

"Master Huaishan County, the emperor asked you to go to the front!"

Chen Xi: "...!?"

Why did the emperor ask her to go to the front?

Do you still need her to introduce herself?
