The Six Palaces of Favorites: The Black-bellied Emperor's Cold Concubine

Chapter 349 Exploring the False and the Real (8)
The emperor took a rest in Tonghua Palace after lunch, Qingchen only lay down with him for a while, then got up to prepare mung bean soup and sour plum soup for him.

When Xiao Jun got up, she saw her standing by the table serving a fruit plate, so she said, "You must not eat cold food now, if you really want to eat it, eat some warm fruit."

Seeing that he was awake, Qingchen hurried over to take care of him, adjusted his clothes, then pulled him to the dressing table and said, "This concubine combs the emperor's hair."

"Let the servants do these things, why bother you to do it yourself?" Xiao Jun was about to turn around and call Fuquan, but Qingchen hurriedly pushed him down and said, "Isn't it the same for ministers and concubines to serve the emperor? Could it be that the emperor despises concubines for being clumsy?" ? But among the people, these are the things that wives should do. The concubines want to do it themselves. The emperor is here, and the concubines don’t want to pretend to be others.”

"I'm afraid I'll tire you at this time." Xiao Jun held her hand instead, pulled her into her arms, and said with emotion: "I'm very happy if you have this kind of heart. I don't want to give up." order you."

Before Qingchen, he combed Qin Zishuo's hair every day. Although he was a little rusty after not doing hairpins for men for a long time, it was not difficult to do.

"It's hot outside, should the emperor use some mung bean soup or sour plum soup before leaving? The concubine doesn't know what the emperor wants to use at this time, so I have prepared some. It's not too cold, so it's suitable for this time."

Xiao Jun smiled unknowingly. If she was willing to put her heart into it, she would be more thoughtful than others thought. She picked up the sour plum soup on the table and took a sip. He asked in surprise, "You made it yourself?"

Qingchen put the chilled fruit plate into a food box filled with ice cubes, turned around and handed it to Fuquan, "The concubine was afraid that the girls would not be able to control the heat, so she asked them to move the small stove into the house and watch the cooking process in person. , although it is not as good as Nanny Gui's craftsmanship, but I still want to try my best to suit the emperor's taste."

The emperor glanced at Fuquan, only to realize that the fruit plate was prepared for himself. Although he was happy, he put down the bowl and blamed him: "Don't do this in the future. I understand your intentions, but there is no rush at this moment. If you don't obey me again, I just watch people staring at you every day to take those tonics prescribed by the imperial hospital, don’t think that I don’t know that you secretly poured out the medicine again, can this person who has used the medicine not have a trace of medicine?"

Qingchen hurriedly knelt down, distinguishing with a bitter face: "Your Majesty is wise, you can't hide anything from your Majesty, but the medicine is too bad to drink, and the concubine can't eat anything else after taking the medicine, so the Emperor will forgive you." A concubine?"

The emperor didn't cry out, and asked, "Is the pill safe to take?"

Qingchen nodded hurriedly, not wanting to keep entangled in this issue, anyway, he wouldn't really stare at her to eat.

Xiao Jun stretched out her hand to lift her up, and said to Zhang De, the little eunuch who delivered the decree: "Go and tell Gu Yunfeng to prepare pills for her. It's not a joke to shed so much blood. Tell me to go on, and the small kitchen should make more qi and nourish blood." And you," the emperor looked over with displeasure, "if you don't give me a rounder shape within two months, I will send all the people in your small kitchen to the handyman bureau. Don't blame me for being merciless."

"Yes, the concubine must obey the imperial physician's arrangement and take good care of her body." Qingchen replied without hesitation, thinking that he knew her weaknesses best. The people in the small kitchen also included Jin Xin and Jin Xiu. What I am afraid of is that the two people around me will be hurt.

The emperor hummed and went out the door, but when he turned his back, he was smiling and in a good mood.

Seeing the emperor leaving Tonghua Palace, Qingchen asked Jinxiu: "What's on that plate, it was really sent by Gu Yunfeng?"
