Empress snatches dried fish

In the next month, Geng Bai'an always moved things into Yu Gan's room in different ways.As small as a pot of rare orchids, as large as half a person's height and priceless jade ornaments, all are displayed in Yu Gan's small Feiqiong Hall.

Even though the name of Feiqiong Palace is quite ostentatious, in the harem of Chongguo in the past dynasties, it was the place where some concubines who were not very favored and did nothing lived.It is quite far from the Dunyi Hall where the emperor lives, only a little closer than the Leng Palace.Sometimes even faint shouts could be heard coming from the side of the cold palace, probably some concubine who was thrown into the cold palace in the past had gone crazy.

Cuixin sometimes feels terrified when she hears it.It wouldn't be like this if the distance was closer and the hearing was clearer. On the contrary, it was this vague appearance that caused her to have nightmares for several nights when she first arrived.

Different from her, Yu Gan likes this kind of place very much, even if there is such a small flaw, it doesn't matter.When they first entered the palace, there were three sleeping halls for them to choose, and the other two were located in more lively places, but the three of them had no ambitions, so Yu Gan chose the farthest Feiqiong hall first.

But the development of things did not go as Yu Gan wished at all. During these days, not only Shu Yonghe, but even the queen Geng Bai'an ran to Feiqiong Palace every day, turning this almost cold palace into a whole The most popular place in the harem, even Wang Leshui and Ji Yinian followed Geng Bai'an over several times.

At this moment, Geng Bai'an smiled and pulled Yu Gan to stand at the door, watching Su Qi command several palace servants to take out all the things in the food box and put them on the table.

"Empress, this is..." Yu Gan looked at the small dish of food that he had never seen before, not knowing what the queen meant.During this period of time, she has sent countless things, but she has never sent food, and I don't know what happened today, but these are sent here.

"It's the food that Bengong asked the imperial dining room to study recently. They are all small snacks and the like. Each plate has the name of the food written on it. If you like it after tasting it, I will send someone to ask the imperial dining room to make it for you."

Geng Bai'an looked at those little cookies and cakes and expressed pride. This is the recipe that she and the imperial chefs spent a long time researching.Because many materials are not available now, it took a lot of trying to find a substitute, even rebuilding a suitable oven, it really took a lot of thought.

Just now she had sent someone to send a copy to Shu Yonghe, and she brought a copy to the Queen Mother when she paid her respects, and now she just sent it to Yu Gan when she came back, and the others just sent someone to send it over. .

They are all the same thing, but Geng Bai'an's actions clearly express her attitude.

Previously when the emperor was clearly doting on Yu Gan, even though Suqin's display of power still left people with lingering fears, there was always no shortage of gossips in the palace.Even if you don't say it on the surface, there are still some gossips in private.The content is nothing more than words that the queen will fall out of favor, so she can only tightly control the right to control the harem.

As a result, when everyone found out that the empress seemed to treat Yu Gan better than the emperor, everyone fell silent—this "everyone" even included the two court ladies beside Geng Bai'an himself, Suqin and Suqi.

At first they were very upset, because Geng Bai'an had mentioned in front of them that the emperor liked Yu Gan, so if the empress asked the empress to take care of her more, even most of the things that the empress sent to Yu Gan were actually sent by the emperor Got it.

But later, they found that their queen didn't have any extra thoughts, and took the opportunity to ask the emperor for credit, and the emperor gave the exact same set with a wave of his hand very generously, so they stopped thinking about it.He felt that although the emperor doted on Yu Gan, he was not bad at all to Geng Bai'an, he almost responded to every request.

So every time they came to Feiqiong Palace, their psychological activities quickly changed from "here again" to "Mrs. Yu Gan is so beautiful".

Yu Gan looked at the unreal smile on Geng Bai'an's face, pulled out his hand calmly, and pretended to step forward to take a closer look at the food, but in fact moved a little away from Geng Bai'an.

I really don't know what the queen is thinking.

These days, the empress comes to me more times than the emperor, and the things she brings are more novel and more precious every time. Even if others don't say it, Yu Gan feels that the two wives who entered the palace at the same time as him look at him The eyes are not the same.

Every time they met when they went to pay their respects, the two always formed a gang of their own, faintly excluding her.

Originally, Yu Gan thought that it was because of his appearance that the two of them were jealous, so he didn't think it was a problem, after all, he didn't encounter too many such things since he was a child.But later, when he occasionally heard them stab him a few words, Yu Gan realized that it was because they were treated differently.

Do not suffer from widowhood but suffer from inequity.

The queen said that these were all found by the emperor, but the emperor has so many things to do, how can he have time to worry about the decorations in the imperial concubine's bedroom?Yu Gan felt that this must be an excuse for the queen.

Everyone had the novelty items given by the queen, but Yu Gan was the only one who gave them the most, and the queen personally gave them every time.Coupled with such booing and asking for warmth, Wang Leshui and Ji Yinian didn't even have a good relationship with the queen.

Everyone is saying in private that they don't know what Madam Yu Gan is capable of, so that they can confuse both the emperor and the empress at the same time.

Neither Wang Ji nor Wang Ji responded, but the other two were different.

However, I don’t know what Geng Bai’an was thinking about in Yu Gan’s heart. I thought that Yu Gan was really interested in these novel foods, and thought that he would go back and describe it to Shu Yonghe later, so that he could take the opportunity to make another fortune——Since Geng Bai’an After knowing that the original owner of Shu Yonghe's body had a large private treasury, he decided to go there.

Facts have proved that there are indeed many good things in it. Half of the ornaments in Yong'an Hall and Feiqiong Hall are from there.

ah!It feels so good to be rich!

……

After sending away the "unpredictable" Geng Bai'an, Yu Gan's originally smiling expression turned cold.Kneeling casually in front of the case for a long time, he squeezed a small cookie and stuffed it into his mouth.

The small pieces of cookies are crunchy, and when you bite down, you can still feel the bursts of milk in your mouth.After a few bites, you can chew the aroma of wheat, which complements the aroma of milk.Some petal-like things can be seen at the fault, but they are covered by the rich aroma, and it is impossible to tell what kind of flower it is.

Cui Xin knelt and sat beside Yu Gan, looked up at her eating the food one by one, lowered her head and thought for a while, and asked: "Ma'am, the empress gave you so much food, is it because she wants you to gain weight? "

Yu Gan gave a pause to the hand holding the small cake, and then brought it to his mouth.

"No." Yu Gan took a bite of the small cake, and looked around their current environment: "Cuixin, look, what was Feiqiong Palace like a month ago? What is it like now? Don't you realize that?" After the two people who entered the palace with me came here once or twice, did they never come here again?"

Although Cui Xin was just a little maid, she was also sent to the palace since she was a child. At that time, the emperor was still the first emperor, so naturally there were many concubines in the harem.When there are too many people, there are also many tricks to intrigue. Just hearing what Yu Gan said, she understood.

First of all, let my wife be favored by thousands of people. If you are an ordinary person with unstable temperament, you will definitely be in a trance immediately.And sending so many things will definitely make other people jealous, and there will be no need to do it yourself...

"This empress is really scheming, so she can kill people with a knife!" Cui Xin said angrily after understanding the truth.

The more a certain master and servant thought about it, the more they subconsciously completely ignored the treasures in the room—the price of "killing someone with a borrowed knife" was too high.

……

Geng·Unpredictable·Bai An didn't know that Yu Gan thought of him that way, and he still ran to Yu Gan's place every day like clocking in. In the morning and after the imperial concubine's regular meeting and in the afternoon, Geng Bai'an delivered things. Yonghe, the true master, seems to be much more diligent.

Wang Leshui and Ji Yinian didn't have any complaints about Yu Gan, but they couldn't bear Geng Bai'an's constant running there. Without the days when Geng Bai'an had fun playing together, they didn't even have to listen to stories.

The two expressed their sadness.

Yuhuayuan is the shortest road from Yong'an Hall to Feiqiong Hall, and Geng Bai'an usually goes this way when he walks.Of course, most of the time she often walked to the main road in a walking chariot.

Walking there on a whim, I didn't expect to meet Shu Hongyu at the gate of the Imperial Garden.

Shu Hongyu, as the uncle of Shu Yong and his first-in-law, their faces are more or less similar, and the most similar one is seen from behind.In addition to the difference in height, it is easy for people who are not familiar with it to misunderstand.

Geng Bai'an was familiar with Shu Yonghe, so he knew that the man in front of him in a dark blue shirt with his back turned to him was probably Shu Hongyu.

I don't know what he is looking at, in order not to scare him, Geng Bai'an deliberately lowered his voice: "Uncle Thirteen?"

Shu Hongyu immediately turned around when he heard the words, and after seeing that it was Geng Bai'an, he gave a simple salute: "I have met the empress, empress Jin An."

"Thirteenth Uncle doesn't need to be too polite." Geng Bai'an smiled generously: "Is Thirteenth Uncle coming to the palace today to see the Emperor or the Queen Mother? Right now they should all rest in their bedroom."

The implication is to ask him what he is doing here.

Shu Hongyu bowed his head and smiled awkwardly: "Earlier, the emperor's sister-in-law said that she wanted to find a woman who was good at Suzhou embroidery to make some clothes for her. Today, I just happened to meet her at the emperor's wife's place. The emperor's wife asked her to embroider pictures of hundreds of flowers. She said If you want to come to the Imperial Garden to have a look and find inspiration, Aunt Huang asked me to drop by and bring her over."

As he said that, he used his chin to signal Geng Bai'an to look in: "No, I've been optimistic about this for a while, I'm afraid that if I stay any longer, I'm going to turn into a fluttering butterfly."
