Daughter of the Prince of Rebirth

Chapter 390
Concubine Su smiled embarrassedly: "Maybe it's just that the maids were careless and negligent..."

Mother Tong sighed, and said sadly: "Your Majesty, it is indeed possible to be negligent once or twice. It is not easy to say if you have been negligent in the past few days..."

Negligence these days!Mu Kongyu sensitively caught the special words in Mammy Tong's words, and as expected, Concubine Su's regular dishes only started after she took power.

This time, they reflected two factors that were not good for them. First, they were narrow-minded, bullied others, and were harsh on Concubine Su. Second, they were not capable enough to control their subordinates. Lord, no matter what the reason is, as long as you don't handle it well, it will be enough for the concubine to make a big fuss and regain power.

The power has already been in her hands, so the concubine would never want to take it back: "Call all the servants who cook and serve the food!" I will definitely give side concubine Su a satisfactory result for this matter.

After a while, a cook and a little maid were brought to the Rose Garden: "I have seen the princess!"

"I don't need to talk about the food on the table. You two cook it and serve it together. Is this the way the side concubine is treated?" Murong Yu glanced coldly at the cook and the little maid: "Although the palace has been changed to me, but , I have confessed a long time ago, everything is done according to the previous practice, and it remains unchanged, do you take my words as wind on your ears?"

When the concubine was in power, she managed Chuxuan Palace in an orderly manner. Murong Yu had seen the recipes of the palace for the past month, and the arrangements were very reasonable, so she ordered the servants to continue to follow the same rules. The side concubine cut corners and ingredients in the meals, it was really audacious.

The two people kneeling tremblingly said: "Return... to the concubine... the slaves are new three days ago... the concubine, forgive me..."

What?The new cook and maid: "Why didn't I know you were entering the palace?" Somebody bought a new maid to enter the mansion beyond their own authority. Is the concubine planning to bring the conflict to the surface?
"Returning to the concubine, the slave girl signed the contract of sale half a month ago... The concubine gave her permission to go home to finish the funeral and observe filial piety before entering the mansion!" The little maid stammered.

"The maidservant also signed the deed of sale ten days ago..." The cook also replied tremblingly, she couldn't figure out how there could be a mistake in cooking the food according to the recipe.

Murong Yu curled her lips into a smile, the concubine is really smart, she had already guessed that Ouyang Shaoxian would snatch her power after marrying the concubine, so she made all preparations, the day before she seized the power, the little maid, The cook entered the mansion and was arranged by her to cook and serve meals for Concubine Su. The two of them had just entered the palace, so naturally they didn't know their previous duties. They would cook whatever menu was given to them.

Even if something goes wrong in the end, it's not their fault, but their own. It's me, the person in power, who can't manage the subordinates well, which makes them make mistakes!
Murong Yu looked up at the cook, "Who gave you the menu?" The cook was new to the palace and didn't know the rules, so she must follow the recipes when cooking.

"It was given by the chef in the kitchen!" The new cook's voice trembled.

Murong Yu waved his hand, and a servant girl quickly ran to the kitchen to call for someone. Nanny Tong and Concubine Su looked at each other, a trace of panic flashed in their eyes, shouldn't Murong Yu severely punish these two newbies who don't know the rules? The servant, in a fit of anger, sold them out, and then comforted Concubine Su to show her concern for her, why did she turn her attention to the chef?

After half a cup of tea, the chef lady came to the rose garden, neither humble nor overbearing: "Hi concubine!"

"You gave this new chef the recipe of Concubine Su's daily dishes?" The chef's face was calm, and she still didn't change her expression when facing Murong Yu. She knew at a glance that she was an old man in the palace, who had seen the world of.

"Returning to my concubine, the regular dishes of all the masters of the palace are written in the booklet. I don't need to give her another recipe. These are the recipes for the last three days. Please have a look at them!" The chef presented a booklet with both hands.

Murong Yu smiled faintly: "The chef lady is really thoughtful in handling things!" He just sent someone to invite her, so she brought this recipe over, she really is a prophet.

The chef's wife smiled: "The servant has been working in the kitchen, and the recipes are always with me!" It explained very well, the reason why she appeared with the recipes was very natural and not obtrusive.

The new cook exclaimed: "I have never seen this booklet before. The meals I cook every day are all recipes given to me by the chef."

The chef gave the new cook a condescending look: "What nonsense are you talking about, everything is written down in this booklet, why should I give you another recipe?"

"Concubine Shizi, the chef lady really has another recipe for the slaves!" The chef lady couldn't understand the matter, so the new cook lady turned her eyes to Murong Yu for help.

Looking at the regular dishes on the menu, and then looking at the leftovers on the table, they cut corners a lot. By now, Murong Yu also understood the whole story. , After the incident, all the responsibilities were shifted to the new cook.

The chef has been in the palace for many years, and everyone knows her behavior very well, but the new chef has no connections. When this incident happened, most of the people helped the chef, and the new chef became the target of public criticism.

When things really came to this point, the name of him being incapable of being a housekeeper was confirmed, and the power of the palace would naturally be transferred back to the concubine.

"You can eat food indiscriminately, but you can't talk nonsense. If you say that I gave you the menu, show the evidence!" The chef lady's voice was cold, faint, revealing a hint of sarcasm.

Murong Yu smiled lightly: "Yes, the chef lady has been in the palace for more than 20 years, and everyone knows her personality. Do you have evidence that she gave you the menu?" Things are a bit troublesome, and I need to think about it.

"This... this..." The new cook's face showed embarrassment: "Every time after cooking, the chef will always take back those recipes, so, slave..."

"That means you don't have evidence in your hand!" The chef lady sneered secretly, she couldn't come up with evidence, as early as she expected, except that the concubine is younger and more beautiful, that's all...
