Your Majesty, please do not disturb, the empress only wants to engage in business

Chapter 59 The Past
After returning to her own palace from Kunning Palace, Yao Jinse began to direct the maids to change the bright paper on the windows.

The coldness of autumn is really sudden, which makes people caught off guard, but fortunately, it is not particularly cold today. It is just the right time to replace the window paper on the windows at this time.

After touching her daughter's forehead to make sure that the child did not catch a cold because of the sudden cold weather, Yao Jinse stood up and touched it twice in front of the window.

The windows in the palace will not leak air, but the wooden windows will never block the wind like the glass of later generations. In this case, it is natural that the details can only be made more meticulous.

"Be sure to paste the edges tightly, and don't allow any wind to leak in."

The place where the adults live is better, even if a gust of wind leaks in occasionally, it doesn't matter, there are earth dragons in the house, and when the time comes to warm it up with a charcoal basin, it won't be too cold no matter how cold it is.

Yao Jinse is mainly worried about the inner hall where her daughter lives. Children who are not yet one year old are not strong enough, and children in this period spend half a day falling asleep, waking up and just falling asleep. , is the time when it is most likely to be exposed to the wind.

But in this era, any small cold and fever may kill the child. Yao Jinse dared not take this risk, so he could only command the palace people to take the defense measures to the extreme.

The side hall where Yao Jinse and the princess lived didn't have so many windows. After half a morning, all the places that should be glued were covered with glue. Yao Jinse felt the hunger in his belly when he was free.

After coming here for so long, she has gradually adapted to the routine here, so even if she doesn't eat anything in the morning, she can still survive slowly.

And once she gets busy... To be honest, Yao Jinse even feels that this kind of busyness today is a bit like working overtime day and night in her previous life, but it gives her a rare sense of security.

There are two small kitchens in Yuxiu Palace, one belongs to Yipin, the empress, and the other was specially rebuilt by the emperor after the princess was born—but so far, the people who use this small kitchen Yao Jinse most of the time.

This morning, Bai Tan and the others prepared rice and soup for breakfast, served with two plates of pickles, the taste was quite to Yao Jinse's liking, so she ate more.

"Who made the breakfast this morning?"

The imperial dining room in the palace is served by men, but the small kitchen in the concubine's palace is not so particular. Generally speaking, it is the maids who do the work.

After all, in this era, washing hands and making soup is also one of the necessary skills for women. Even if you are a queen, sometimes you have to cook in person and cook some dishes for the emperor.

Otherwise, how can the emperor feel the deep affection from the harem?

"Xiao Tang made it," Bai Tan cleared his throat, walked closer and said, "He made this soup last night, and it took a long time to stew it so tasty, but this pickle was sent by Mr. Xiaochi of."

Kochi's father-in-law of Yexiang Bureau.

Yao Jinse didn't think that there was anything hard to say about the things sent by such a person. Although Xiaochi was there, Yao Jinse knew that the more people like them, the more they would clean themselves up.

What's more, it's impossible for Xiaochizi to make this thing by himself.

The reason why she asked this question was because she felt that this dish was particularly suitable for her taste - to be precise, it suited the taste of this body.

It must have been brought in from outside.

"The letter has been delivered, and a reply letter came in from outside. It was delivered this morning."

At that time, the concubines were all paying their respects in the queen's palace, so naturally no one noticed that a young eunuch collecting night incense entered or left the palace.

It seems that this matter is not bad.

"Where is the small pond?"

"The servant girl has already sent things to Eunuch Xiaochi according to the young master's previous instructions, so the young master doesn't have to worry."

Bai Tan is very methodical in doing things, not to mention that Yao Jinse used it once, and naturally he will not stop there. The means of communication inside and outside the palace was originally transmitted by these little eunuchs who can enter and leave the palace. The status of these people in the palace It's not tall, but it's definitely a master on the outside.

Even if they were looked down upon behind the scenes, they came out of the palace in front of their faces, and no one dared to offend them.

So this line still needs to be well maintained. Yao Jinse has kindness to Xiaochizi, but Sheng Mi's kindness fights Mi's hatred, and people's hearts are unpredictable.

Yao Jinse is still very satisfied with Bai Tan's actions, it can be seen that the Yao family chose Bai Tan to accompany their daughter into the palace, and it took some thought.

She didn't know much about the family of the original owner, so after eating, she went back to the bedroom and took the letter from Bai Tan to read it.

There are only a few thin sheets of paper in the envelope, which is far less than the letter she asked Xiaochi to send out, but Yao Jinse wrote those contents at that time because there were too many things she wanted to inquire about—the original owner’s She tried to ask about family background and many stories that he should know, or didn't know so far.

But now it seems that the effect is not very good.

There was not much content in the letter, and the person who replied was Yao's father, who was at the level of a petty official who could be killed by throwing a brick in Beijing.

Yao's father has always been a cautious person. When his daughter suddenly heard news from the palace, his first reaction was unstoppable worry, and then he faced his daughter's care and longing in his heart. I also conveyed the thoughts of other people in the family about Yao Jinse.

Then it's the topic.

What Yao Jinse said in the letter, I hope the family can help to inquire about it. Father Yao has also handed in the news of the current court, but what he said is not clear.

After all, he was just a petty official, and the information he could know was really limited. It was all information on the surface, and it was almost worthless.

The only advantage is that he can get the news faster outside, but his daughter is in the deep palace, so there is really no way to find out the news.

So Father Yao also sent in the news.

In addition, it is the short content of some parents.

The people in the Yao family probably also knew that they could pass on more news in the future, so they didn't pay much attention to this matter, and what they said was just their own words.

For example, mother's longing, and the two jars of pickles brought into the palace by someone, were all the original owner's favorite food when he was at home.
