After the heroine was robbed, save the paranoid villain
Chapter 25 Entering the Palace [5]
Yan Yu hadn't used needlework for a long time and was a little rusty at it. Fortunately, the maids around her were clever and skillful. They managed to sew a piece of underwear for her by the time she was about to go to bed.
She didn't know if it would fit her well. Xiao Chengji didn't come back tonight, so Yan Yu went to bed early.
It is said that a big case has occurred in the capital city again. A flower thief has violated the innocence of many girls, causing families with girls in the capital city to be in a state of panic.
The other party was quite skilled in martial arts and the officers hunted him for a long time, finally catching him yesterday.
It is said that the origin of this flower thief is a bit unusual, and several parties are causing trouble for him.
If Xiao Chengji didn't tell Yan Yu about the affairs of the court, Yan Yu would not take the initiative to ask about them.
She has been busy with needlework these days. When she gets bored, she rests in the room for a while or goes out for a walk.
The marriage between Yan Yu and King Qin has been settled, and Shao Hong and his wife are also going back to Lingcheng.
When they left, Yan Yu went to see them off and accompanied them all the way out of the city.
Yan Yu also had no idea when he would see his third uncle and aunt again after they left. It was common for them to never see each other again after being separated by thousands of miles.
When Yan Yu went to the Shao family for the first time when she was young, Jiang held her in her arms and let her regard the Anqing Marquis Mansion as her own home.
In the blink of an eye, so many years have passed.
Shao Hongzhen didn't dare to let Yan Yu see him off any longer, so he bowed to Yan Yu and said, "It's windy this morning, and the princess is weak to begin with, so you'd better go back and rest early."
When Yan Yu was in the Shao family, he was the uncle and Yan Yu was the niece. Now that Yan Yu has become a princess, Shao Hong follows the rules in everything and is always courteous to Yan Yu.
Yan Yu wiped away her tears and said, "When we get to Lingcheng, uncle must write to me."
"Of course." Shao Hong quickly ordered Shao Junliang and Shao Junshou, "You two escort the princess' carriage back. If the princess has any instructions in the future, you two must obey them."
Yan Yu watched the Shao family's carriage go away before getting on the carriage.
When she returned to Prince Qin's Mansion, it was already dawn.
Xiao Chengji happened to come back from the morning court and went to Cangfengtai.
Breakfast was being prepared in the palace kitchen early in the morning.
The concubines and maids in each courtyard, the prince of Cangfengtai and the princess of Wanfuyuan, each place wants different things.
Yan Yu likes sweeter things with lighter flavors. She doesn’t eat much meat on weekdays, so the breakfast prepared for her is mostly light seasonal vegetable dishes and sweet porridge, with some exquisite pastries.
There must be meat at the King of Qin's place, mostly venison and mutton, cooked in various ways, almost the same as when he was in the palace.
As for the concubines in each courtyard, there are many requirements - these people are rewarded by the Empress Dowager. Although their own status is low and the prince completely ignores them, the Empress Dowager's status is high.
In recent years, the Zheng family has been prosperous, and there is basically nothing that the Queen Mother wants to do that she cannot accomplish. Even the people rewarded by the Queen Mother, no one in the kitchen dares to offend them.
The emperor rewarded Yan Yu with some blood bird's nests, and during this period Yan Yu would eat a bowl of stewed bird's nest every morning.
Yan Yu had no appetite when she came back this morning, so the maid asked her to keep the bird's nest for the princess to eat after she woke up.
Among the concubines in the side courtyard, Tian had the most interactions with the empress dowager, and from time to time she would tip off Empress Dowager Zheng about things.
Of course Tian knew that the King of Qin hated her. They were all forced upon him by the Queen Mother Zheng. They were like leeks, one crop after another. Even if they were killed, they would grow again. Anyway, there was never a shortage of people around the Queen Mother.
As for the King of Qin, if he had too much blood on his hands, his reputation would soon be ruined.
Even now, there are a group of people outside saying that he is cruel and murderous.
Queen Mother Zheng's reason was also very sufficient - which prince didn't have a few women serving him? Could it be that the King of Qin had a special hobby of liking rabbit gods?
To be honest, Queen Mother Zheng had a powerful tongue and was very good at disgusting people. She always managed to disgust the King of Qin so much that he was speechless and had to accept her arrangements with a pinch of his nose.
After all, even the emperor had to give the queen mother some face, and the Prince of Qin hadn't even gotten the status of a crown prince.
If there weren't a few women in the courtyard, Queen Mother Zheng would really be able to accuse the King of Qin of liking to play with male paramours.
With Queen Mother Zheng as her backer, Tian could be said to have had her fill of pleasure in the Prince of Qin's mansion. However, this also led to her becoming arrogant and looking down on everyone.
Usually, Tian was very competitive and wanted everything to be good. She asked the kitchen for chicken, duck, fish and meat for every meal.
This is the kitchen of the Prince of Qin's mansion. There must be plenty of chickens, ducks, fish, meat, delicacies from the mountains and the sea. It would be no problem to support a few more idle people.
Queen Mother Zheng wanted to test the character of the Princess of Qin to see if she could be squeezed.
Now Tian has become the one who squeezes the persimmon.
Tian always liked to come to the kitchen in person to take a look, and this time she immediately fell in love with the bird's nest reserved for the princess.
Even in the palace, the supply of blood swallows was limited, and only those of high quality were qualified to eat them. Most of the others were ordinary white swallows.
Tian insisted that she had not been feeling well these days and needed to eat something nourishing to nourish her body.
Of course the kitchen steward refused to give it to her: "This is the princess's food. The princess will eat it when she wakes up."
"I don't believe that the princess is so stingy." Tian curled her lips, "Don't give face to the monk, give face to the Buddha. The princess won't give face to the queen mother, right?"
The person in charge was also in a difficult position.
Generally speaking, only some ladies of high rank and concubines of high status could have a say in front of the empress dowager.
But on the 17th of every month, the empress dowager would call her concubine Tian into the palace to talk.
The Queen Mother Zheng and the Zheng family now have absolute power. Who would dare to offend the Queen Mother?
This is also the reason why Tian Shi was not favored by the King of Qin and was still arrogant and domineering in the palace.
The Princess of Qin has not revealed any attitude since she entered the Qin Palace.
However, Princess Qin's father and brother were both dead, and the Duke Zhenguo's Mansion was left with only an empty shell, and there was no one in the capital who could support her.
It is not easy to get things done without a family background from one's mother's family. The servants of the royal family are the most flattering and like to look at the background of the powerful.
Besides, we have prepared a lot of food to be sent to Wanfuyuan. Princess Qin may not remember this bird's nest. We can just stew another portion for her after she is punished.
The manager didn't say anything else to Tian and let her take the bird's nest away.
Before noon, Bichun, the head maid of Wanfuyuan, came over.
The princess is awake now and wants to eat.
She looked at the pear blossom white jade cake, Ruyi yam cake, osmanthus milk cheese, three-shredded shark's fin, jade shoots and fern in the food box, and suddenly realized that one thing was missing: "There is also a bird's nest bowl, which the princess will drink when she wakes up. Why is it gone?"
The steward said, "I wonder if the princess wants this. Should we make it for her now?"
"Nonsense! I saw you guys stewing it this morning, why is it gone now?"
The steward was helpless: "Master Tian wants to eat this, we can't stop him, he was gifted by the Queen Mother."
