[Red Mansions] The promotion of the female history of salted fish

The empress dowager is dizzy, the emperor will come and see in person no matter what.The little eunuch opened the curtain, and as soon as the emperor entered the room, he saw Concubine Hui standing by the bed, Concubine Zhuang was learning about the Empress Dowager's illness to the imperial doctor outside, and Concubine Shu decocted the medicine herself... Like Moses divided the sea, the emperor passed A path flashed out, allowing him to get to the Empress Dowager's bed smoothly.

Concubine Hui's eyes flickered.The relationship between the emperor and the empress dowager has never been very close, but the empress dowager is so ill, the emperor is still his own son, right?Seeing Concubine Zhuang come in, she asked before the emperor noticed, "Sister, what did the imperial doctor say?"

"The imperial doctor said that the empress dowager's liver qi is exuberant due to her overwhelmed mind." Concubine Zhuang replied with a three-pointed smile on her face.

"How did this happen? The Queen Mother was still smiling when I came to pay my respects last time..." Concubine Hui looked anxious.This means that I don't know who has angered the Queen Mother during this time.

Very good, the eye medicine was applied, and the emperor was instantly angry: Who will bother the queen mother with troublesome things during this time?But now that the queen mother has fallen ill, it is not easy to ask the specific reason, let's wait for a while.

This waited for less than half a month, and in August, the Empress Dowager's illness was completely cured, and the palace began to be busy with the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet.

It was only in ancient times that Yunling discovered that the Mid-Autumn Festival here is a big festival second only to the Spring Festival. In August, moon cakes are occasionally delivered from the small kitchen of the Changchun Palace: it is necessary to constantly adjust according to the tastes of the nobles, and strive for the mooncakes presented by the Mid-Autumn Festival. Can mooncakes be rewarded?Yunling is favored in front of Concubine Zhuang now, and of course she will not forget her role when the small kitchen delivers mooncakes.

Although Wuren has been expelled from the mooncake membership in later generations, after tasting the mooncakes sent by the small kitchen one by one, Yunling still thinks that Wuren mooncakes are the best.Walnuts, melon seeds, peanuts, sesame seeds and almonds are used as the main ingredients, and sugar is added for seasoning. The mooncakes wrapped are shaped like small drums, with sharp edges and corners. They taste sweet and delicious. .

When it really comes to the Mid-Autumn Festival, moon cakes are secondary instead.The Mid-Autumn Festival on August [-]th, also known as Mid-Autumn Festival, is an ancient "Moon Festival".The festival originally originated from offering sacrifices to the Moon God, but with the development of the times, through the Tang and Song Dynasties, this day has gradually become a day to celebrate family reunion.

Of course, the moon god still has to sacrifice, so there will be a palace banquet in the palace on Mid-Autumn Festival.

According to folk rules, if there is a daughter who returns to her natal family in the past few days, she must go back to her husband’s house on Mid-Autumn Festival and spend the festival at her husband’s house—after all, a married person is a member of her husband’s family. What about the day of family reunion? Can I live at my mother's house?

But who made the princesses' father the emperor of this dynasty?The emperor said that he wanted to be reunited with his sons and daughters and have a palace banquet. What can the son-in-law do?Of course, I can only obediently send the princesses from their husband's home to their mother's home!

Of course, there is no difference between the princess and the prince. The princess only brings her son-in-law, while the prince brings his concubine, side concubine and children.The princes and princesses brought their concubines and sons-in-law to pay their respects to their mother and concubine first, and then went to the front to attend the palace banquet together.Thanks to the blessing of the Mid-Autumn Festival this time, Yunling met the third princess' son-in-law.Peach blossom eyes, as if the corners of the lips are naturally raised.In all fairness, she looks good, otherwise the emperor would not be able to marry his daughter to him.

But thinking of this person marrying a princess and taking a concubine openly, Yunling cursed silently in her heart.Sure enough, a scumbag does not distinguish between good and bad appearance...

It was said to be a dinner party, but in fact, the concubines of high status arrived one after another in the afternoon.Although there is no woman with a higher status than her in the palace except the Queen Mother, Concubine Zhuang still can't go too late.Zizhu and Mother Jiang wanted to serve Concubine Zhuang personally, and only Yunling, Zhang Jinru, Baisha, Hongye, and Luyun were left in the Changchun Palace.Before leaving, Concubine Zhuang said, "Mid-Autumn Festival, you don't have to be restrained, you don't need to be on the errands, I just asked the kitchen to add two dishes, you have fun."

With these words, the few people were acting presumptuously, and Hongye immediately ordered the kitchen to bring wine. The rice wine in the palace was of low alcohol content, and the maids and eunuchs who could drink could drink several pots each.A jug of wine that Hong Ye wanted was equal to half a jug for one person, so Concubine Zhuang didn't reject it, she just smiled softly before leaving, "Don't get drunk, I still have a master in Changchun Palace .”

Everyone nodded naturally.There was a palace banquet ahead, and the imperial dining room was extremely busy. The small kitchen of Changchun Palace served food quickly, and the dishes were ready in a while, but there was a difficulty when deciding on the venue: Baisha and Zizhu belonged to the same room, and now Zizhu is not here. It's not easy for a few people to have a banquet in that room; Luyun and Hongye are both there, but their "dormitory" is farther than Yunling's, so in the end the banquet was still held in Yunling's room.The festive menu is just like that. They don’t have the chance to eat rare things like crabs from afar. The dishes served in the small kitchen of Changchun Palace include Dongpo elbow, spicy tofu, Sixi meatballs, a small dish of vinegar celery, Sweet and sour pork tenderloin, stir-fried cauliflower, a pot of yam pork rib soup.Served in order, and placed on the table of the round Eight Immortals, Yunling was a little dazed, not to mention, it is true that there are four dishes and one soup in the female history's usual order, but no one will take the initiative for troublesome dishes like Sixi meatballs to do.The dishes served today were the ones she often ate during festivals in her previous life, and it felt like time and space intertwined for a while.

Lu Yun suggested, "It's not interesting to eat food and drink, why don't we play boxing games, and the loser will be punished with alcohol."

"That's good," Hongye repeatedly agreed.Bai Sha hesitated a bit, but thought that the empress didn't ask them all to wait for the empress to come back before she left, if someone was drunk and asked the little maid to carry him back, he didn't object to Luyun's proposal.

Zhang Jinru opened his mouth, but finally closed it.Yunling's drinking capacity is very average in modern times, but she is not even afraid of being punished with rice wine.She thought that Baisha and Zhang Jinru were not familiar with this proposal, so drinking a little wine would help to open up the situation and chat, so she nodded in agreement.

When we first met, we could tell that Hongye was a lively person, but after we got to know him well, we found that this person was crazy for his acquaintances.Except for Zhang Jinru who is not familiar with her at this table, they are all acquaintances, and Hongye is getting more and more comfortable.After three rounds of fist punching, the atmosphere was finally not as weird as it was at the beginning, Yunling was relieved and got up to make tea.

After what happened last time, Zhang Jinru and Yunling were inexplicably awkward.Even though Yunling didn't clearly express her dislike for her on this occasion today, Zhang Jinru felt guilty.Especially she and the green clouds, red leaves and white sands on the table are nodding acquaintances, if Zhuang Concubine hadn't forced them to eat together, she would not have come over.Now guessing that the time is almost up, he just clutched his forehead and yelled faintly, "No, you guys keep playing, I have to go back."

Baisha and the others verbally said a few words, seeing that she really wanted to leave, they didn't want to keep her very much.Thinking that Zhang Jinru's room was next door to Yunling's, he went back with her.When Yunling came back from making tea, she saw that there was one person missing on the table, and she was still a little puzzled. After hearing what Baisha said, she looked at Xiaoyan with some reproach, "You don't want to give Zhang Nushi either."

Lu Yun waved his hand, and said indifferently, "You are such a big man, and the house is next door, can you still lose it?"

Seeing that the three of them didn't seem very warm to Zhang Jinru, and Zhang Jinru always felt that the status of female officials was far higher than that of court ladies, Yunling guessed that her thoughts probably leaked in front of Baisha and the others.This... After all, she is the same female history as Zhang Jinru, so it is difficult to persuade her deeply, so she continued to play finger games and drink.

Outside the moon rose higher, the moonlight became brighter and clearer, and the jar of wine was almost drunk, Bai Sha was the first to speak, "The empress is coming back soon, we should part too."

Green clouds and red leaves say yes.Even though it was a holiday, she couldn't be too presumptuous, Yunling moved her body a bit, although she was a little dizzy, her joints moved fairly freely, and her steps were hardly chaotic.She sighed, "Okay, then I'll go to the main hall with you." She met Concubine Zhuang face to face, and signaled that she had a good time on Mid-Autumn Festival because of the grace of the empress, and this kind of thing is very familiar.

So they went out of the house together and walked to the main hall, when they heard a male voice shouting furiously inside, "Get out!"

Yun Ling was taken aback, it was so late, who else could enter the main hall of Concubine Zhuang, the Changchun Palace?Sure enough, there was a rustling sound, probably because the servants in the palace had all knelt down.Unlike film and television dramas, in the real palace, when the emperor is angry, there will not be a large group of eunuchs and court ladies kneeling down and shouting "The emperor is angry", after all... all the palace people at this time are thinking about the emperor It's best not to see them. Isn't it like jumping out and being a target if you shout at this time?

Yunling and the others looked at each other, they didn't dare to enter the room, they just stood outside with their hands down.After a while, I saw the palace people who were originally in the room exiting the room softly and orderly, and there was no sound at all.It's just... the last person in this team, Yun Ling's eyes widened, how could it be Zhang Jinru?

It's not the time to talk right now, Yunling was already a little dizzy, but she became even more dizzy after standing in the courtyard and blowing some wind. Due to the furious emperor inside, she didn't dare to say goodbye at this time, so she was very tormented.

Fortunately... um, no, as a member of Changchun Palace, it's really not a good thing for the emperor to leave the main hall in such a rage, but Yunling was still quietly relieved.Jiang Nanny went out and looked around, and saw that they were all there, so she knew that she had just come here to say hello to the empress, after thinking about it, she let Zhang Jinru in and let them in.

Concubine Zhuang seemed to have a calm expression, seeing Yunling coming in, she smiled and asked them if they had a good time tonight.Yunling naturally agreed, gossiping about the time for a cup of tea, Yunling and the others took the initiative to say goodbye with color.Several people looked at each other before returning to the room, not knowing what would happen tomorrow.
