Everyone understands,
The purchase ratio is less than 40%,
I can't see the update for the time being..
The Emperor stared at Xue Baoqin's face,
He saw that layer of white veil,
He asked, "What's wrong with your face?"
Xue Baoqin said, "because I have spring ringworm these days,
My face is a little dirty,
So I covered my face.
Moreover, it is said that spring ringworm should not be exposed to the wind,
This can be considered killing two birds with one stone.
Your Majesty, please forgive me. "
Spring ringworm was a disease that women were prone to in spring,
How would the Emperor know if it could be exposed to the wind?
Therefore, he did not doubt Baoqin's words.
He walked to the seat of honor, lifted his clothes, and sat down. He said to Baoqin, who was still standing, "Why are you standing?
Sit down and talk to me. "As he said that, he waved his hand gently. Immediately, the eunuchs and palace maids in the room left,
Only Baoqin was left to accompany the Emperor.
Hearing this, Baoqin could only walk to the seat below the Emperor and sit down on the yellow rosewood eight-immortal chair.
The Emperor looked at the beauty of the Xue Clan that he had always been thinking about,
But he saw that her eyes were calm,
Although her face was covered,
He could still feel that her mood was very stable, so he asked with a faint smile, "I didn't ask you to enter the palace immediately,
Do you have any resentment in your heart? "
Look at the Emperor's question,
Even if she really had resentment in her heart,
Did she really dare to say it out loud?
Baoqin cursed the Emperor in her heart, but on the surface, she replied respectfully, "this commoner knows that there must be a reason why I can't enter the palace immediately,
There is no resentment in my heart.
Moreover, His Majesty has rewarded this commoner with many precious items,
And he personally came to visit this commoner.
Even if there is a little unwillingness in my heart,
It has long been gone. "
Baoqin's answer was very clever,
If she said that she was not dissatisfied at all, the Emperor would definitely not believe her, right?
If she said that, the Emperor would definitely believe that she was speaking from the bottom of her heart.
Sure enough, the smile on the Emperor's face became even more sincere. "You are very honest." He looked at the white veil on Baoqin's face, and a trace of regret appeared in his eyes.
Wasn't that so? It wasn't easy for him to steal some time to come out and see his beauty, but he just couldn't see her. What a pity …
Baoqin smiled and said, "How can I not tell the truth in front of Your Majesty?"
She did not sit up straight like she usually did in front of the Emperor's concubines for fear of losing her decorum. Instead, she leaned lazily against the back of the chair, appearing even more charming.
She came out in a hurry, wearing only a half-worn apricot red dress that reached her chest, covered with a light pink tulle.
In the haze, one could vaguely see the hidden flowers embroidered on the dress. They were delicate yellow and willow green flowers.
Her chest was adorned with a string of pure white pearls. Each pearl was the size of a ball, but it didn't seem to be as white as her skin.
This set of clothes was rather loose, not a close-fitting dress.
However, the oversized dress had another kind of strange charm. It was illusory and real at the same time, real and illusory at the same time. The ups and downs of the dress were especially alluring.
At the very least, the eyes of the Emperor, who had been watching her from the other side, became deeper and deeper.
Food and sex are the greatest desires of man. The ancients really didn't lie to me …
After satisfying the lust, it was time to satisfy the other person's appetite.
After all, it wasn't easy for her to come out. She couldn't not eat, right?
After the two of them talked for a while, Baoqin said, "Would Your Majesty stay for a meal?
I will personally cook and wash my hands to make soup. I hope Your Majesty won't dislike it. "
Hearing this, the Emperor's handsome face showed an interested smile, "My beloved concubine can cook?"
Oh my, he's already calling me beloved concubine. I'm not even your concubine yet … Thinking this in her heart, Baoqin said, "I'm not very good at cooking. When the time comes, I hope Your Majesty won't laugh at me.
During the time before the meal, does Your Majesty want to take a walk in the garden?
Although this place isn't as noble as the imperial garden, the scenery is still pretty good. It's worth a look. "
The Emperor didn't seem to be interested in the Grand View Garden and said, "Forget it. If you don't accompany me, what's the point of me going to the garden alone?"
Baoqin secretly rolled her eyes and asked, "Then, is Your Majesty going to wait here?"
The Emperor stood up and stretched his arms, saying, "I'm a bit tired. Where is my beloved concubine's room?
I want to rest for a bit. "
The Emperor wanted to occupy her bed. Did she dare to refuse?
She could only lead the Emperor to her room.
The Emperor stood beside her bed, which took up half of the room. It was carved with insects, flowers, and birds. His nose smelled the faint fragrance of a woman, and his mind couldn't help but sway.
Seeing a eunuch come up to serve the Emperor, Baoqin quickly asked to leave.
Although she was nominally his, she hadn't officially entered the palace.
She still had to be reserved.
The Emperor watched as Baoqin left. He just smiled and didn't have any other emotions.
He took off his outer robe and deerskin boots under the service of the eunuch and lay down on Baoqin's bed. He only felt that it was quite fresh.
On the pillow embroidered with elegant lotus flowers and carps, there seemed to be the fragrance of Baoqin's hair. It was intoxicating.
The lilac purple silk quilt covering his body was soft and thick. It also had the same fragrance as the pillow.
On the bed full of Baoqin's scent, he fell asleep in a daze not long after.
In his dream, she was also there … …
Next to Baoqin's courtyard, there was a small kitchen.
Although it was small, it had all the essentials.
One of the walls facing the stove was completely hollowed out, and the light was very good.
Xiao Luo squatted in front of the clean stove and stuffed dry wood into the stove. He asked curiously, "Miss, what are you going to cook for His Majesty?"
He knew about his Miss. When she said that her cooking was average, it wasn't modesty. It was the truth.
If the Emperor didn't like the food she made, then she would go for wool and come home shorn.
Baoqin revealed a mysterious smile. "You'll know when I make it."
She then ordered, "Go take out the pot I specially ordered. Wash it and set it aside."
Xiao Luo complied and left. Not long after, a mouth-watering aroma rose from the kitchen.
One of the two eunuchs guarding outside the room sniffed and said, "The aroma is not bad. This Young Mistress Xue seems to have some skills."
The other eunuch took a few deep breaths and closed his eyes. "There are dried chili, wild mountain pepper, pepper, star anise, grass fruit, bay leaf … …"
The eunuch next to him laughed. "Do you have a dog's nose?
This Young Mistress Xue has misunderstood. Our Emperor doesn't like to eat dishes with strong flavors.
It seems that she won't be able to sleep tonight. "
The other one glanced at his colleague beside him and revealed a look of contempt. "What do you know?
His Majesty is very interested in this person.
Even if he doesn't like her cooking, he won't say anything.
If you don't believe me, just wait and see … … "
By the time the Emperor woke up, the sun had already set.
The warm sunlight of dusk shone in through the half-open window, casting a golden glow on the ground.
Tiny specks of dust floated in the light, surprisingly not annoying.
He stood up and let the eunuch put on his outer robe for him. His nose smelled a special aroma that whetted his appetite. "Is your Young Mistress Xue's dish ready?"
The eunuch had his usual gentle smile on his face. "It has been ready for a while. Your Majesty, please take a look. This servant has never seen this dish before!"
The Emperor was slightly surprised. "Only one dish?"
The eunuch said, "Strictly speaking, there is indeed only one dish."
The Emperor laughed instead of getting angry. He thought that Xue Baoqin, who could not wait to present a treasure after cooking only one dish, was very cute.
Of course, this was because of her beauty.
If an ugly woman cooked only one dish for the Emperor, would he still be able to laugh?
After the Emperor finished dressing, he walked out of the bedroom at a neither fast nor slow pace.
On the round mahogany table in the warm room outside, there was a table full of dishes.
Seeing this, the Emperor looked at the eunuch behind him and said, "You dare deceive the Emperor?" How was this just one dish? It was clearly a table full of dishes.
The eunuch hurriedly bowed and replied, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. Although it looks like a table full of dishes, strictly speaking, it is only one dish.
Your Majesty, please take a look and you will understand. "
The Emperor glanced at the eunuch who had served him for more than ten years, then walked to the table and sat down.
He took a closer look and saw that the dishes on the table were all raw!
Seeing this, he laughed. "Is Beloved Concubine Xue going to show me her knife skills?"
The eunuch stood behind the Emperor and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, please take a look at the pot in the middle. It seems that these dishes have to be cooked in it before they can be eaten."
Hearing this, the Emperor's gaze moved to the pot in the middle of the dishes.
He felt that its shape was strange and he had never seen it before.
The copper pot was round and there was a chimney-like thing in the middle. Inside the chimney-like thing was filled with bright red charcoal that was burning brightly.
There was a thin copper plate embedded in the pot that divided it into two sides. One side was filled with a milky white soup with a hint of bright red, while the other side was filled with a chili and pepper soup with chili oil.
The soup on both sides had already boiled and was constantly boiling. The two different fragrances were emitting from the soup.
Baoqin's words were undoubtedly a reassurance to Yinchun. She immediately nodded and said, "Sister Chin is right. We will do as you say."
Seeing that Yinchun had agreed, Ping 'er said, "Alright, then it is decided."
