Chapter 388 The noodles suddenly lost their flavor
Xiao Xiazi is usually very careless with his words. Whenever there is something happening in the palace, the news and gossip will spread all over the palace walls like a strong wind, and will inevitably reach Su Peisheng's ears.
Su Peisheng also knew what kind of person his apprentice was. He knew exactly how much money Xiao Xiazi had collected and how much he had guided the public opinion.
It's just that this monkey has become more and more unruly due to his indulgence recently. General Nian is now very popular, and the Nian family has indeed gained a layer of wealth and prosperity because of Concubine Hua's promotion to Noble Concubine Hua.
According to his many years of experience as a police officer, the more times like this, the more cautious he has to be in his words and actions and stay away from those who attract attention.
But this disciple has been getting cocky lately, so Su Peisheng took out his whisk and hit Xiao Xiazi.
"You think you can make up the masters' affairs! You are becoming more and more unruly! Don't serve in front of the emperor these days. Go to the tea room to boil some water and calm your temper!" Su Peisheng shouted in a low voice.
Xiao Xiazi has been a lot more relaxed these days. After being hit and being scolded by his master, he started to feel scared. He thought that he had taken too much money from Concubine Hua and was indeed a little too proud.
Xiao Xiazi admitted his mistake hesitantly and walked towards the tea room.
Nian Gengyao and the emperor discussed matters in the Yangxin Palace for the entire afternoon, and only took their leave in the evening.
After leaving the palace, Nian Gengyao did not even return to the Nian Mansion, but went to Cuiyun Tower, the largest restaurant in the capital, to have a drink at the invitation of the Tenth Prince.
When Concubine Hua was promoted to Concubine Hua Gui, she naturally received the emperor's favor and favor.
For ten days or half a month, Concubine Hua was cheated on.
I was so tired every night that I felt dizzy and tired. After finishing work, I would ask Lingzhi to bring some midnight snacks from the small kitchen to replenish my energy.
It was either a bowl of shrimp wontons cooked in chicken broth with three-shredded ham, or some Cantonese-style abalone and shrimp porridge. Hua Fei was eating there, and the emperor even laughed at her for not having enough physical strength. But before she had taken two bites, the emperor smacked his lips and asked Lingzhi to give him a bowl as well.
This made Concubine Hua roll her eyes repeatedly.
What no one expected was that this never-repeated midnight snack actually made the emperor stay for another ten days or half a month.
Concubine Hua regretted very much. She regretted not controlling her own appetite and even arousing the emperor's appetite.
Finally, one night when the lights were brightly lit in the Yikun Palace, while the emperor was eating a bowl of mushroom and shredded chicken noodles, Concubine Hua couldn't help but say, "Wanpin had a miscarriage, but she has recovered now. Has Your Majesty visited her?"
"She's sad all day long, and if I go, I'll be sad too. It's better not to go."
Concubine Hua: ...
"I heard Jinghe has been talking a lot more recently. Has the Emperor gone to see her?"
"Well, Jinghe has seen that I am indeed much more lively, but you know her mother, Concubine Hui, is still too arrogant."
Concubine Hua: ...
"It seems the three sisters in Yanxi Palace haven't seen the emperor for a long time."
"I just summoned An Changzai to the Yangxin Palace for a chat this afternoon."
Hua Fei: ...The noodles suddenly don’t taste good anymore.
Just when Concubine Hua was about to report to the Jingshifang in advance that her period was about to arrive.
Zhou Ninghai got news from the previous dynasty that the Tenth Prince was galloping on his horse across the capital just to attend a cocktail party at Cuiyun Tower.
It was forbidden to ride a horse at high speed in the capital, so the Tenth Prince's behavior was naturally impeached by the imperial censors.
It is said that among a bunch of memorials criticizing Prince Dun, Nian Gengyao also submitted a special memorial, in which he expressed his sympathy for Prince Dun's eagerness to keep the appointment on time.
The memorial was presented to the emperor, who stayed alone in the Yangxin Palace.
