False eunuch in late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 48

"I asked you to come to the palace today to enjoy the royal family banquet with me. One is to commend you for your great achievements. The other is to let you meet my family. They also want to see your great project." Zhu Said by the inspection.

It is naturally a great honor for the emperor to invite his courtiers to dinner.When Zhu Youjian invited Cao Qing to dinner, he naturally wanted Cao Qing to know, look, how much do I value you?If it is put on someone else, you will not desperately want to work for Zhu Youjian.Cao Qing is an exception, such allusions have been seen thousands of times, how could Zhu Youjian be fooled.

Cao Qing was still looking forward to this royal family banquet.I have seen queens and concubines played by beauties in various styles on TV, but I have never seen what these queens and concubines really look like.I watched Empress Zhang before, and this audition queen is really outstanding.Cao Qing was a little intoxicated by the beauty of natural carvings and hibiscus coming out of clear water.Where does it look like the beauties of later generations.They all look like beauties, who knows how thrilling it will be after removing the makeup!And I still don't know whether those handsome faces are pure natural or man-made.

"Cao Qing, just tell me what dishes you like, so that I can let the imperial chef cook for you. You are my guest today, so I can't be called stingy." Zhu Youjian said.

"Ugh. I don't know what dish is the best in the palace. It's up to the emperor to decide. I guess the dish chosen by the emperor must be the best." Cao Qing said.

"Hey. You. You're just a slicker. But that's okay. I asked the imperial chef to prepare the most delicious dishes in the palace. I will guarantee that you will be able to feast on it." Zhu Youjian said.

As Cao Qing in her previous life, she naturally did not attend any high-level banquets.I didn't expect to be able to eat the meal of the emperor's house after traveling here.

The place where the family banquet was arranged this time was different from the emperor's usual banquet for princes and ministers.The reception of princes and ministers is generally carried out in Fengtian Hall.But this time the family banquet was arranged directly in the Qianqing Palace.This is where Zhu Youjian usually lives.

Cao Qing followed Zhu Youjian into the Qianqing Palace.

As soon as he entered the palace, Zhu Youjian said: "Cao Qing made a great contribution, so I gave him a banquet. Today I will exempt him from all etiquette. Otherwise, his knees will be swollen if he comes to eat a meal here. "

Zhu Youjian's words were too timely.Because next, Zhu Youjian introduced the queens and concubines to Cao Qing one by one.Cao Qing only needs to bow to him.If you kneel down one by one, it's really not that easy to deal with.

"Your Majesty, my concubine has heard of Eunuch Cao's name for a long time. When I saw him today, he is indeed a young hero. Eunuch Cao has made such contributions to the royal family. I want to reward him well. Eunuch Cao, tell me, what do you want?" A reward?" Queen Zhou said.Empress Zhou's voice was extremely sweet, like a nightingale in the forest, melodious and clear.

"What the villain does is his duty. No one dares to take credit. This is all because of the emperor's strategizing and good command. I am the gun in the emperor's hand. I will shoot wherever I point it." Cao Qing said.The gun Cao Qing was talking about was definitely different from the gun everyone understood, but it didn't affect their understanding.

"Seeing you today, Eunuch Cao is indeed very witty. He has made great achievements but does not take credit for them. Such a person is the loyal minister that the royal family needs." Tian Guifei said.

"Brother Huang! You didn't even call me when you invited me today. You're really stingy. Fortunately, I'm well-informed. Hmph, can you make it in time?" A clear and atmospheric voice sounded from the palace gate.

"Hui Ti, don't be surprised. Today I am here to entertain the heroes, so don't make trouble." Zhu Youjian said.

"Banquet for meritorious officials? Then I have to come and take a look. Those who have contributed to our royal family, I naturally want to see what he is like. I will reward him in the future." Zhu Huijing said.

"Okay, find a place to sit down, and don't mess around." Zhu Youjian had nothing to do with this sister.

"Sister-in-law, come sit with me. I haven't been to the wife of the emperor for many days. I thought your brother-in-law married you!" Zhang Yan said.

"I don't want to marry. I want to live in the palace for the rest of my life. Here is my good wife. Who is the meritorious minister? Where is it?" Zhu Huijing said.

"Don't mess around. This is Eunuch Cao. He has made great contributions to Daming this time. The banquet for my brother is to commend his contributions." Zhu Youjian said.

Zhu Huijing glanced at Cao Qing, feeling familiar.

"You are?" Zhu Huijing pointed at Cao Qing in surprise.

"I'm not. The princess has identified the wrong person." Cao Qing said.

"Okay. You bastard, I finally found you. Let me see how I deal with you!" Cao Qing didn't say anything, but Zhu Huijing was completely sure that Cao Qing was the nasty little girl who embarrassed her. eunuch.I searched for a long time in the palace today, otherwise I would not know about Zhu Youjian's banquet with guests.

Zhu Huijing rushed up to Cao Qing.Zhu Youjian hurried forward to stop him.

"Stop being rude!" Zhu Youjian said angrily.

"Sister, don't be reckless." Empress Zhang and Empress Zhou rushed over to grab Zhu Huijing at the same time.

After all, Zhu Huijing learned etiquette in the palace.I also know that this kind of scene cannot be done arbitrarily, so under Zhu Youjian's scolding, and then under the persuasion of the two sisters-in-law, he can only let Cao Qing go resentfully.

"Little thief, you are lucky. Today is not enough, and I will punish you every time I see you." Zhu Huijing said.

Cao Qing was not afraid at all, and said with disdain in his heart: "I will never come to the palace in the future. See where you can find me. If you dare to go out of the palace, I don't know who will teach whom!"

"Princess, I accidentally bumped into the princess before, and the villain apologized to the princess here. The villain will die forever." Cao Qing said.

"Cao Qing, why did you provoke her?" Zhu Youjian asked.

"When I went to the imperial study, I accidentally bumped into the princess. At that time, I thought it was a maid in the palace, so I reprimanded her a few times. I didn't expect it to be the princess. This really offended the princess. Your Majesty, forgive me." Cao Qing said.

Zhu Youjian's eyes widened, and he didn't expect that the result turned out to be this: "You reprimanded her? What didn't she do to you at that time?"

"I left after saying a few words, the princess seems to be very kind." Cao Qing said.

Zhu Youjian almost spit out the tea in his mouth, rolled his eyes and said, "She is very kind. This is the first time I've heard of it."

Cao Qing glanced at Zhu Youjian, and thought to himself how handsome Zhu Huijing must be to let his brother say that in front of others.If I messed with this woman today, I'm afraid it will be a big trouble in the future.It seems that it is better to visit less in this palace.

"Your Majesty, recently, Xiaoyao has been busy with the steel plant and the training of the guard camp. There are many management affairs in the Huangzhuang. In the future, the time to enter the palace will be much less. If the Emperor has something to do, he can send someone outside the palace to inform Xiaoyao People." Cao Qing said.

"Forget it. Don't worry, this imperial girl has reached the age of marriage. When she gets married, she won't come to trouble you." Zhu Youjian said.
