Palace Full of Delicacies

When Su Yu returned to Yexiao Palace, he saw the people from the imperial dining room carrying things into his small kitchen, and suddenly remembered that because he was in a hurry to return to the palace, he forgot to go back to Xianmantang to get the money.

"Your Majesty, take a look." This time, there were not only the little eunuchs who often came to deliver the food, but also several new faces. When they saw Su Yu, they were very respectful, so they quickly stepped aside to let him see the seafood.

One pot of fresh big crabs, one pot of lively sea prawns, one fat perch, one mandarin fish, five small yellow croakers, twenty scallops, twenty oysters...

Su Yu looked at the dazzling array of seafood, and swallowed his saliva. The quality of these ingredients was particularly good, and he really wanted to buy them to cook for the emperor. The problem is... I don't know if the imperial dining room allows credit.

"Look, we'll leave if there's no problem." The little eunuch smiled flatteringly.

"Wait," Su Yu hurriedly stopped him, joking, after buying these things, he won't have to eat for this month, "You haven't said what the price is yet."

"Your Majesty is joking, how dare you ask for money," the little eunuch hurriedly said, "These are the emperor's orders today."

Su Yu's eyes widened, the emperor's... statute...

"The Empress Dowager decreed today that the emperor's orders will be with yours in the future. If you lack any ingredients, just let the imperial dining room deliver them." The little eunuch looked at Su Yu's face, and saw that he was surprised, then pleasantly surprised , then to annoyance, and finally turned pale, and couldn't help but feel uneasy.

Su Yu circled around the pile of seafood, and angrily pinched a hairy crab. The hairy crab, which was tied up in a big way, struggled and swung its pincers at him, trying to pinch his nose.

No wonder the price of seafood in the palace is ridiculously high, but it turns out that most of the seafood is for the emperor, because the emperor is given priority, and there are not many seafood left, so the price is naturally high.Compared with the daily quota of one fish for concubines, the emperor's quota is simply outrageously rich.

Why did he never expect that the emperor eats three meals a day at his place, and he can definitely ask for the emperor's share, and the left and right are all eaten by the emperor!What's even more hateful is that the emperor threw away all the meals made in the imperial dining room in order to eat the meals he made a few days ago, and these precious ingredients were wasted in vain!

Su Yu's heart hurts when he thinks about it, how much money he spent wasted!

In the imperial study room, His Royal Highness King Zhao, who had recovered his human body, stood obediently in the center of the study room, looked at his brother with a bad face, and told the story of what happened today in a bamboo tube.

"I used to go horse racing with Duke Lu's son in the hunting ground. His green horse is really good. Later, I asked Uncle Thirteen to get me one too..."

An Hongche narrowed his eyes, and the imperial brush in his hand broke into two sections with a "click".

His Royal Highness Zhao shrank his neck, and the speed of his speech suddenly accelerated, "Suddenly a few assassins appeared, killing and hacking randomly, and we ran separately. It disappeared, my horse stumbled and threw me into the shape of a beast, I can only run to our old place, I really didn't mean to disturb your love... Aww!"

Even so concise and concise, King Zhao was hit on the head by a broken pen.

"Did you see that thing?" His Majesty the Emperor took a deep breath and warned himself not to be as knowledgeable as his stupid brother.

"I see," King Zhao's chubby face wrinkled into a ball, looking pitifully at his elder brother, trying to get some sympathy. "Fortunately, I hid tightly and escaped the catastrophe by hiding in the dogtail grass."

"You have the nerve to say it!" An Hongche couldn't bear it anymore, got up and walked over, picked up his younger brother by the collar, "From today on, you will go to the fifth floor to practice for two hours every day."

"I won't go!" King Zhao suddenly struggled.

Half an hour later, in the Anguo Tower.

The national teacher leaned on the soft couch, propped his chin with one hand, raised his eyes to look at the tearful little fat ball held by the emperor, "What's wrong?"

"Hongxi is getting fat again. It must be because he hasn't practiced well recently. I'm thinking of letting him come for two hours every day." His Majesty the Emperor threw his younger brother on the soft couch of the national teacher inhumanely.

"Oh?" The national teacher raised his eyebrows, stretched out his slender fingers, and unhurriedly pressed the tail of the little furball that was trying to escape, "What about the emperor?"

An Hongche snorted coldly, "Of course I will come too."

The national teacher nodded slightly, and slowly stroked the kitten in his hand, his movements were gentle, full of love and affection, "Did the emperor see that thing in the hunting ground today?"

"Killed one and ran away two," An Hongche said in a cold tone, "There is also bad news, mackerel appeared in the river and sea."

The national teacher stroked his nephew's hand for a while, and a cold light flashed in his cold eyes, "It is necessary to catch him as soon as possible."

"Of course I know," An Hongche got up, and didn't bother to look at the stupid younger brother who started licking the teacher's fingers for nothing, and only looked at the teacher with his eyes closed, "Is there anything else?"

The national teacher picked up the hairball in his hand and threw it to His Majesty the Emperor, apparently not intending to keep King Zhao to spend the night in Anguo Pagoda.

Because the emperor was assassinated in the hunting ground, the Xiaoqi Battalion assembled urgently, and Prince Su personally led the troops to search the hunting ground closely.At the same time, the inner palace is under martial law.

"Talent people stay away." On the palace road, the guards blocked Miss Changchun Hou's way, "Martial law today, no one is allowed to step into the palace road."

"Our lord is going to Yexiao Palace to deliver something to Concubine Xian, please accommodate me a bit." The maid beside Miss Cen hurried forward to say good things.

The guard looked at the arrogant Cen Cairen, and said with a sneer, "You can't even go to Yexiao Palace."

"There are too many people who want to send things to Yexiao Palace, Cairen should rest easy." Another guard next to him couldn't help interjecting.

The two guards looked at each other and pouted at the same time.These concubines, knowing that the emperor will go to Yexiao Palace at night, they find all kinds of reasons to go there, and even pretend to be Xianfei, are they stupid to be their guards?

"You..." Miss Cen's beautiful face turned pale with anger.

The little maid hurriedly gave her master a hand, and apologized to the guard with a smile: "We'll leave now."

Not long after, a purple sandalwood box was delivered to Su Yu.

"Your Majesty, this is a return gift from Cairen Cen." Eunuch Yang opened the box, and a refreshing fragrance came out immediately.

"What is this?" Su Yu looked curiously.

"If the guess is correct, it should be a very high-grade agarwood." Eunuch Yang said with a smile.

Su Yu returned the 1000 taels of silver to Cen Cairen. Cen Cairen was very happy. As a result, this matter was soon known to the Prince of Changchun Marquis. The Prince was very angry and insisted that his sister return the money to Su Yu. If it doesn't work, you have to give a decent gift in return.Even though Miss Cen was reluctant, she still listened to her brother.

Su Yu frowned. He doesn't use incense, and Yexiao Palace seldom buys it. Even if he uses it, it's very light pine incense. It's not easy to return it if someone else sends it over. "Let's put it away and sell it for money later." I heard this Agarwood is quite expensive, so let me comfort him for losing the 1000 taels windfall.

When it was time for dinner, the emperor hadn't come to Yexiao Palace yet, but a reward came.

"The emperor has a decree. Concubine Xian will accompany me on a trip today, and I will reward you with a hundred taels of gold and a thousand taels of silver." Eunuch Wang calmly read a short imperial decree, and asked someone to carry out a box of gold and silver.

One hundred taels of gold, one thousand taels of silver...

Shouldn't the emperor reward concubines with silk, pearl and agate?How can anyone directly reward a pile of gold and silver, and what is the reason for rewarding "accompany me on a trip"?

You are short of money, why didn't you tell me...

You are mine, and it is only right and proper for me to raise you...

How can you not like me, I, I like you so much...

Those cold words, with three parts of pride and three parts of twitching, concealing pity and concern, came to mind one by one.

Su Yu stared blankly at the shiny real gold and silver in the box, slowly stretched out his hand, picked up a gold ingot, and took a bite.There are tooth marks, it is real gold!
