Qing Palace - Biography of Concubine Wan

Episode 191
After she said this, Qingru realized that she was really hungry. She nodded silently, picked up a small spoon, scooped some in the bowl, and put it in her mouth. As soon as she ate it, her brows immediately frowned, and then she turned her head " "Bah" and spit out what she just ate on the ground, she wiped her mouth and said in displeasure, "Is this bird's nest? Why is it so unpalatable? It's completely different from what I ate before."

Hearing this, Zijin knelt down to apologize, Qingru asked her why the bird's nest was so unpalatable, Zijin muttered and dared not say it, and when she saw that Qingru's face was not right, she said: "Miss, the bird's nest used to be eaten It's over, these are just sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, they are very broken, and there are scum inside, which is much different from the previous ones. Seeing this, the servants said a few words to them, but the person who sent them said it was from the manager's side Meaning, Yanxi Palace can only get this kind of bird's nest, in fact, apart from the bird's nest, the dishes sent to the small kitchen are also worse than before!" Shuo Shuo was a little annoyed in the words, but it was more helpless. I've experienced it before, but it's the first time I've experienced it after the master got favored. The contrast and irony are great.

When Zijin was talking, Qingru kept looking down at the bowl of unpalatable bird's nest porridge, the spoon was slowly turning in the bowl, a smile gradually appeared on her lips, she was like the head of the House of Internal Affairs, like the head of the imperial dining room.

However, she herself was also a bit confused. After walking around outside the palace, she returned to this man-eating palace and still kept her temperament outside the palace. Noisy, others think she is easy to bully, even a few servants dare to ride on her head, no matter what, she still has the title of a noble concubine on her head, and she is not an ordinary little nobleman, so she can let them Bully.

When the smile spread to the maximum, she put down the spoon and said to Zijin: "Bring me all those broken bird's nests, and go to the small kitchen to pick some of the worst dishes. In addition, you take the head of the imperial dining room and the head of the house Invite them all to me, and tell them that I have something to say to them, and if they dare not say it, I will invite them in person!" The voice was extremely gentle, but Zijin's heart trembled when he heard it. This time I was really angry.

Zi Jin hurriedly left, and the broken bird's nest and a few dry and stale vegetables were also placed on the table, Qing Ru looked at these things quietly without saying a word.

When it was almost noon, Zijin finally brought the two stewards. Qingru sneered silently as she watched the two getting closer and closer. It was really a big air to make her wait for such a long time. , and looking at the expressions on the faces of those two people, it seemed that they were very reluctant.

The two stewards, one surnamed Yao and the other surnamed Zhang, are both people who have been in the palace for some years, otherwise it would be impossible to achieve the position of steward. Wherever the scenery falls, it will fall.

After Zijin came in first, she turned towards Qingru Yifu: "I want to report to you, the two stewards are here!" Seeing her expression of suffocation, it can be seen that the invitation process was not so smooth.

Qingru nodded to indicate that she understood, and then turned her gaze to the two stewards behind her. After the two stewards looked at each other, they gave Qingru a slap with some reluctance: "I have seen Concubine Wangui, your concubine Auspicious concubine!"

"Two managers, please stand up!" Qingru smiled habitually again, and that flawless smile added beauty to her already stunning face.

After the two managers straightened up, they saw the piles of things on the table. They were very familiar with these things. Now that they were piled up here, they knew without thinking that something was wrong. Manager Yao from the Ministry of Internal Affairs asked first: "I don't know how expensive it is." What is it that the concubine called the servant?"

Qingru stroked her temples a little, and instead of talking about the topic, she smiled and said: "The two chief managers are very busy people. It is really difficult for you to take time out of your busy schedule, and it is also my fault!"

"Your Majesty is serious. Although the slaves and others are entangled in all kinds of things, the Madam has a call, and the slaves and others will come no matter how busy they are!" This was said by Manager Zhang of the Imperial Dining Room, and his face was piled up. smirking, Zijin, who had her hands at her side, snorted softly when she heard this, and said in a low voice: "It's nice to hear, I don't know who pushed me to refuse to come just now!" They were so thick-skinned that they couldn't help blushing a little.

Qingru also heard it, she put away the smile on her face and gave Zijin a cold look and said: "I am talking to the two managers, what are you talking about!"

Zijin didn't expect to attract Qingru's displeasure, her face turned pale immediately, she knelt down and kowtowed: "Your servant is guilty, please forgive me!"

Qingru waved her hand and said, "Forgive me? If I forgive you so easily, then you may be more presumptuous next time. That's fine, you go outside and kneel first, and don't get up without my order!"

"...Yes!" Zijin didn't expect that Qingru, who had always treated her so well, would punish her like this. Although she didn't want to, she reluctantly agreed, and then went outside to kneel. One can imagine the taste under the sun.

Manager Yao and Manager Zhang, who thought it was nothing at first, couldn't help worrying about themselves when they saw Qing Ru punishing Zijin. After all, they were slaves after all, and Concubine Wan Gui was the master. If she really wanted to punish them, they would Can't resist.

After Zijin went out and knelt down, Qingru turned her eyes back to the two of them again: "It really made the two managers laugh, it's all because I didn't take good care of the servants around me, and let them be so presumptuous!"

The two supervisors didn't even dare to say anything, but their hearts were pounding. They felt that today's matter would not be good. What they did not control the servants was clearly for them to show them, so as to teach them that she is not a fake lady. .Sure enough, without waiting for a while, she pointed to the scattered bird's nests on the table and said, "Director Yao, I don't understand something and would like to ask you, is it okay?" Qing Ru said this very politely, but anyone would know No matter how polite the master says, there is no reason for a slave to refuse, unless he has reached the point of ignoring the master.

Director Yao's wrinkled face was full of smiles and said: "Your concubine has anything to ask, the servant will know everything!"

"That's good!" Qingru said with a half-smile: "May I ask Mr. Yao, according to the grade of my palace, which grade should this bird's nest be? I remembered that it should be a second-grade bird's nest, but today After seeing the bird's nest that you brought over, Mr. Yao, I am a little confused, these things are probably not even the final product, right?"

"This... this..." Director Yao murmured for a long time but couldn't explain why, because what Qingru said was not wrong, and according to her grade, she should have taken a second-grade bird's nest, even When she was in favor, he even sent some first-class ones over to curry favor with this popular empress.

"Looking at Mr. Yao, I think I remembered it correctly. I just don't know why this bird's nest suddenly dropped from second grade to no grade. Did you send it wrong, Mr. Yao, or do you think that the emperor is close to me?" Your concubine is not qualified to enjoy this mere second-grade bird's nest?" At the end, Qingru's eyes suddenly became brighter, and that invisible power emanated from her all of a sudden, making Director Yao almost unable to stand up. He lowered his head and kept rolling his eyes, deeply regretting that he used the unfinished bird's nest to make up for it in order to get greedy for those bird's nests. How could he think that this empress is not as easy to bully as others.

On the one hand, Manager Zhang looked at his calves and felt a little weak. After she finished dealing with Manager Yao, it would be his turn. How should he answer!
Manager Yao thought for a long time and finally let him think of an excuse: "If you go back to your mother, the slaves don't know anything about this matter, it must be that the slaves below are not serious about their work, and they mistakenly send the things to your mother. , the servant will send the second-grade bird’s nest to the empress immediately after returning, and punish that mindless person for doing things properly!”

"Really?" Qingru said leisurely, touching the opal pendant under her ear with her fingers, feeling a bit of coolness on her hot fingertips: "What about the ice, it should have been ice in this weather, why is this I haven't seen you here in the palace for a long time, could it be that the people below are not doing their best? If this is the case, then Director Yao is too inattentive to be the manager, and you don't know how the people below are doing things!"

"This..." Director Yao didn't know how to answer for a while. The answer was that he was incompetent as the manager, but he replied that if it wasn't, the guilt would be greater. Maybe Concubine Wan Gui would use this to make herself look good , he secretly glanced at Mr. Zhang as if asking for help, but he was staring at the rotten dishes on the table with a sad face, and didn't see his eyes at all.

In desperation, Director Yao had no choice but to choose the big and the small: "If you go back to the empress, it's because the slaves have no way to control them, so that they leaked the ice in the empress's palace. It's the slaves, right? After the slaves go back, they must send the ice over immediately. , the servant will discipline them well in the future, and never let them be so careless again."

"Okay!" Seeing that the effect she wanted was achieved and they dared not underestimate her, Qingru said enough was enough: "Boss Yao, I remember what you said, and I hope I won't let me find out about similar things next time, otherwise I can It's not so easy to talk about!"

After dispatching the Ministry of Internal Affairs, she turned her attention to Director Zhang, who is in charge of the imperial dining room: "Director Zhang, what do you say, all the dishes on this table were delivered by you just today!"

Perhaps it was because of what happened to Manager Yao earlier, Manager Zhang answered very simply, without even thinking about it, he said: "I want to tell you, this servant doesn't know at all, and I never dare to neglect my lady, and I always ask them to pick the best one." The dishes sent to the empress, who would have thought that those servants who are not open-eyed, actually sent these stale things over on their own initiative, and the servants must teach them a lesson when they go back, and the servants will send another batch of the freshest dishes. I hope you can forgive me!" He heard clearly what Concubine Wan Gui said to Mr. Yao just now, and it's their fault that he was sent out, he didn't want to suffer it once, he might as well have said it earlier , anyway, it was pushed to the people below, even if she wanted to find someone to punish her, she couldn't find them.
