The golden and jade of the peasant girl in charge

Chapter 496 Sweet and Sour Pimple Soup (2)
That night, Ning Ci slept very well, probably because she was tired, and the next day she slept until the end of the day.When she woke up, the two big and small men who were supposed to be sleeping next to her were gone. When she got into bed together, the girl who heard the movement outside had come in obediently, with a sweet voice and gentle movements. Most importantly, that voice was incomparably familiar!

"Concubine Shizi, you are awake, and this servant will help you dress and freshen up."

Ning Ci looked at the girl who suddenly appeared, and narrowed her eyes slightly: "Tao Hua, why are you here?"

Tao Hua was the girl she brought with her when she was in Lianfu in Duanyang City, and she was indeed the most convenient girl Ning Ci had used over the years, but logically speaking, Tao Hua should be by Lian Chengyu's side now instead of appearing in Ning Ci's house. In the palace, holding her clothes in his hand, he wanted to get familiar with her clothes.

For a moment, Ning Ci was even a little dazed, maybe because Jiang Chengye was not around, if it wasn't for the decoration of the room, she almost couldn't tell whether it was in Bianjing or Duanyang City.

"Why did you appear here?" Ning Ci asked doubts in her heart while putting on her clothes.

Taohua smiled faintly: "Concubine Shizi, the slaves are from the group that was recruited as maids of the palace a few days ago. The master saw the cleverness of the servants, so he transferred the servants to serve the concubine Shizi."

Ning Ci frowned, and wanted to ask a question, but Tao Hua was already close, and said in a low voice: "Girl, the third master asked the servant to remind the girl that you promised to help him, please hurry up..."

faster?
On that day, Lian Chengyu readily let go of her entanglement, and even helped with human and material resources, in the hope that she could do one thing for her.Taohua appeared today to remind her, could it be... he couldn't wait any longer?

and many more!

Has Jiang Chengye never seen a peach blossom?
At this time, Ning Ci seemed unsure whether Jiang Chengye knew Tao Hua's identity. Tao Hua said that she had sneaked into the palace to meet her under Lian Chengyu's order, and Jiang Chengye picked her to serve Ning Ci at a glance. Nothing unusual.

Ning Ci couldn't help being startled—if Jiang Chengye intended to help, then did he know something?
This thought made Ning Ci a little uneasy for the first time. She wanted to find Jiang Chengye after hastily freshened up, but the servant said that early this morning, the Shizi personally prepared breakfast for the two young masters and the young lady, and then sent it to Jiang Chengye. They went to school, oh, the young master was also hugged by the prince, and both of them went out, the prince said that when they came back, they had to go to the imperial hospital, as for what to do, the servant did not know.

Ning Ci was really surprised and pleasantly surprised——Jiang Chengye, is this helping her with the child?

But with his temperament, if he really knew something, he shouldn't be so calm and interested in taking the children to make breakfast and send them to school, right?

Ning Ci's originally worried heart gradually relaxed.With a close person like Taohua by her side, she also felt a lot more relaxed. She knew that Taohua would secretly contact Lian Chengyu and the others, so she told Taohua directly, and it would be resolved as soon as possible.

Because she still had to go to the palace to see how the Queen Mother was doing, Ning Ci hurriedly finished cleaning herself and went out without even eating.

But as soon as I went out today, the whole feeling outside was different.

As if sensing Ning Ci's surprise, the housekeeper who sent him out smiled and said, "Have you forgotten, the concubine, after the Holy Order ordered several adults to preside over the national cooking selection, the imperial list has already been distributed to all parts of the country. The screening has been done, and now it's almost time for them to come to Bianjing."

Ning Ci nodded, and got into the carriage sent by the housekeeper Qian.

Since yesterday, the princess has been locked behind closed doors.

I'm afraid that from today onwards, everyone in the government and the public should know that Yang Minru promised to be the side concubine of King Ning.As Concubine Jing said at the beginning, the imperial decree is a final decision and cannot be reversed. Even Jiang Yan himself, if he does not keep his word and revises it several times, he will lose his prestige.

What Ning Ci couldn't help but smile was that as the spread of the rumors in the court became wider and wider, more and more new theories were opened up. Some people said that Yang Minru liked King Ning from the beginning, while others said it was true. In order to win over King Ning, Prime Minister Yang did not hesitate to let his daughter marry him - giving his son the pillow breeze, which is naturally not as effective as blowing the pillow breeze in his ears himself!What is even more exaggerated is that the prince and the concubine seem to be in love, but in fact they are already inseparable and have no feelings. 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi.

But the last version is a bit mysterious.Some people said that this young lady of the Yang family was supposed to be promised to the eldest son of King Ning's mansion, how could she become the side concubine of King Ning overnight?This is so strange.But there is no wall that does not leak in the world, and the story of Ning Ci recuperating the Queen Mother's body has been more or less spread. If they are connected in this way, someone has made a bold guess—could it be that the quasi-prince concubine has tampered with it? , Let the woman who was originally intended to be a husband-in-law become a public woman?

Then this is really an anecdote of the Great Week!

It takes a lot of skill and courage for the daughter-in-law to push her love rival to her father-in-law!
And these days when Ning Ci entered the palace, she was generous during the day. The maid who served in the empress dowager's bedroom said that the empress dowager liked this concubine-to-be very much, so the last guess spread more and more, and many When people saw Ning Ci again, they didn't think she was just a country girl who followed Jiang Chengye to Beijing and flew on a branch to become a phoenix!

The empress dowager's body has been laid out now because she vomited out all the accumulated things in her body, but she loves and fears that celery, even if she thinks it tastes delicious, she absolutely dare not eat it again, but soon , the Empress Dowager's attention was attracted by what Ning Ci made.

Pimple soup can be regarded as the most common food eaten by ordinary people, but the bowl Ning Ci brought out made the Empress Dowager unable to put it down. Although it was still eaten elegantly and delicately, there was no soup left in the end. Compared with food appetite, it is simply good and cannot be better.

The old mother on the side also smiled: "In the past, the long table was set up in a large area, and the empress dowager tasted it every time, but now a bowl of pimple soup is enough for the empress dowager to eat."

Ning Ci smiled: "The empress dowager is a golden phoenix, every meal should be delicious, but there is also a principle of mutual generation and restraint between food, and there is a tolerance between food and people, every meal of the empress dowager There are countless dishes, even if you take a bite of each one, it is considered a backlog of food, but it is easy to overwhelm and indigest. Although I eat the same thing every day, I can eat it whole and well, and there is no gap between the body and the food. There are too many contradictions and conflicts. If you eat enough, your body will have heat, so your hands and feet will not be cold, and then those medicinal foods that nourish qi and blood will work better. If you eat regularly like this, It is also very beneficial for the queen mother to do more exercise after meals to allow the food to digest."
