Shangshi female official

Chapter 34 Peach Blossom Vinegar 2
"Mother Yan never blamed Qiu Shangshi. She said that Qiu Shangshi might really want to let them go, but she didn't know that Li Niangniang wanted to kill people."

"Yan Shu is no longer here, and only she knows how Qiu Shangshi is."

Wang Yifu lowered her head. In her opinion, Qiu Shangshi is also one of the enemies in the palace. No matter how bad it is, she also wants to ask whether Qiu Shangshi released him according to Li Niangniang's instructions, or if he really wanted to help Yan's mother let him go.

"Since I know that Yan Shu was wronged, I will naturally bring you into the palace, so you can go back and prepare."

"Yes."

"By the way, the new peach blossom wine made in the palace is here this year. Go to Ting Lan's to get two jars and have a good drink with your sisters."

Wang Yifu took the order and went to get the wine back to the house.

Back in her room, Wu Xiaolan and three other girls had another anecdote in the Bagua Palace, and this anecdote was also related to Nanny Chen.

"I heard that Shangshi Bureau has made a lot of noise this time."

"Tell me carefully and listen."

"Aren't there two highest adults in the six rounds, who are in charge of the house in rotation?

Yesterday at noon, Master Liu Shangshi was serving the meal. I heard that Master Liu was flattering and said that the emperor's kindness is mighty. If she has children, if the emperor wants to eat human flesh, she can also sacrifice her own children. Somehow, Long Yan was so angry that he beat Liu Shangshi and drove him out of the palace. "

"She said that, isn't she very loyal, for the sake of the emperor, even a child can be cooked."

"Probably the emperor thought she was too heartless, so he kicked her out of the palace."

"Unfeeling doesn't mean you need to give him a beating... Besides, Liu Shangshi doesn't have any children at all."

Wang Yifu put the two jars of wine on the cabinet, and turned her back to them. The light from the window shone on her face, reflecting white light. She suddenly responded coldly: "It's an allusion."

Wu Xiaolan couldn't understand, and asked, "What did you say? What allusion?"

Wang Yifu explained in detail, "During the Spring and Autumn Period, there was a cook named Yi Ya in the State of Qi. One day Duke Huan of Qi said that he had eaten all kinds of delicacies, but he had never eaten human flesh. It would be great if he could taste it. His own son cooked for Duke Huan of Qi, and later Duke Huan of Qi became seriously ill, and Yi Ya supported his son Wuwu, put Duke Huan of Qi under house arrest, and starved Duke Huan of Qi to death in the palace."

The four girls all opened their mouths and took a breath, Wu Xiaolan sighed, "No wonder..."

"With this allusion, how could the emperor be happy when he heard that he could sacrifice his own child."

"When you study on weekdays, you thought it was a waste of your cooking skills, but you didn't expect it to be of great use."

Wang Yifu smiled and said: "Shangshi Bureau also has a lot of books, and there is also a place in the palace to teach maids to read. It is not too late to start reading now."

One of the girls said: "I won't read it anymore. The book is full of words, and I feel dizzy when I see it. From now on, it's right to speak less and make fewer mistakes."

Wu Xiaolan asked again: "You were at Mother Chen's place today, did you hear any news?"

"The Holy Majesty has hand-picked Mother Chen to return to the Shangshi Bureau to be the female official of the Shangshi Bureau. Today's order is issued, and I can also enter the palace."

Wu Xiaolan said with a smile: "It can be considered that you have lived up to your culinary skills."

Wang Yifu weighed a jar of wine, and said: "This jar of peach blossom vinegar was given by Master Chen, you drink it, and I will bring the other jar for Shen Ci to taste."

Wang Yifu couldn't wait to bring the good news to Shen Ci, so she and Shen Ci went to find Xu Xinyan, both of them were happy for her, and made a meal for her to celebrate.

Shen Ci went to the training ground to cut some sauced meat and made a frosted peanut. The three of them gathered in Xu Xinyan's yard. Xu Xinyan had brought three yellow bamboo rocking chairs from nowhere, a small table, and food and drink on the table.

The three of them poured three cups of peach blossom wine against the starry sky while the night was as cool as water and the evening breeze was blowing.

The buzzing of insects in the bushes gradually sounded, and the fragrance of flowers wafted out. A cup of it entered the throat, and steam was steaming on the head. The tense body immediately relaxed, and it was very comfortable to lie on the chair and shake it.

"It would be great if I could lie down like this for the rest of my life, drink some wine and eat some food~"

Xu Xinyan expressed emotion, Shen Ci and Wang Yifu both enjoyed listening to the gossip with their eyes closed, Shen Ci said again: "It would be even more wonderful if someone could sing a song."

But Wang Yifu said: "It's really greedy, we little maids in the imperial city, where can we invite someone to sing?"

"It can be seen that this delicious food and wine is almost complete."

"Shen Ci, now I'm with you."

"I know, not only you, but also Mother Chen."

"It seems that in your heart, Nanny Chen is more important."

"With you, I have companionship; with Mother Chen, I have thoughts."

"What do you say?"

"If I enter the palace alone, and Qiu Shangshi is in charge, I really don't have the confidence to gain a foothold in the palace." Shen Ci turned around, sat upright, and said again: "If I am under Chen Momo, I will feel Now that the culinary skills can be brought into play, there will definitely be more opportunities to come into contact with ingredients that have never been seen before and make delicious things.”

Wang Yifu turned her head to face her, and said with a pleasant smile, "You are right, if Nanny Chen, Shangshi Bureau will definitely be able to speak with cooking skills."

Looking at the stars in the sky, Xu Xinyan had a whim, and asked: "Yifu, Shen Ci entered the palace to learn how to cook well. I entered the palace because my mother wanted me to learn needlework well. Why do you want to enter the palace?"

Wang Yifu's relaxed smile dissipated, she drank two more glasses of wine, lay on the rocking chair, watched the stars all over the sky swaying in front of her eyes, swaying and swaying, as if she was about to fall into a dream.

"I want to enter the palace... to find someone."

"Who?"

"...my father."

Both Xu Xinyan and Shen Ci were surprised, there were eunuchs in the palace, where did the father come from?Could it be that Wang Yifu drank too much?
"I want to ask him why...abandoned my mother."

In this way, the two of them understood that her father probably abandoned Efu and her mother and went to the palace to become a eunuch, but there were thousands of people in the palace, where to find her father.

Xu Xinyan comforted: "Efu, don't be sad, we will accompany you to find it."

"That's great!"

"what?"

"I said...it's great to have you."

Shen Ci couldn't help laughing, and said, "Efu, you're drunk."

"I'm not... I... I'm not drunk for a thousand cups."

Seeing Wang Yifu down three cups, both Shen Ci and Xu Xinyan were overjoyed. Wang Yifu, who has always been calm, adaptable and decisive, has such a poor capacity for drinking.

The two supported Wang Yifu step by step, step by step back to the room, Wang Yifu kept muttering: "Mother, I don't eat eggplant..."

The next morning, when the sun was shining brightly on her face, Wang Yifu woke up from Xu Xinyan's room with a splitting headache and an unpleasant taste in her mouth.

She sat up, last night was like a dream but not a dream, and she didn't remember what happened, she only knew that she was drinking, and while drinking Xu Xinyan asked her why she entered the palace, and then she fell asleep.
