After Qing Chuan Meng, the emperor chased after him

Chapter 43 Homework, the Empress Dowager Treats Meals
The eunuch moved the reclining chair in and placed it behind Murong Li'er. The Empress Dowager smiled at her and said, "Sit down! There is no need to be taboo when talking to the Ai family; the Ai family just heard that Concubine Yi said that the Emperor Qianqing Palace has a distinguished guest. It's so beautiful, I don't believe it, I didn't expect to see the real person and find out that what Yifei said is right..." The empress dowager praised Murong Li'er, saying it was a compliment rather than a sarcasm.

Murong Li'er is not a fool either, she could tell, and said with a smile: "Thank you Empress Dowager for your compliment, the little girl is just more beautiful."

Kangxi couldn't help laughing when he heard it, but he couldn't help laughing in his heart. It was the first time he saw a woman praising him like this; he didn't feel shy at all.

The empress dowager's face turned green, but she couldn't yell in front of Kangxi, she was such a articulate woman, she could only hold back her anger: "Aijia asked the imperial dining room to cook the emperor's favorite dishes , I don’t know what the distinguished guests like to eat, so I asked the imperial dining room to prepare some! You should try it later.” The Empress Dowager immediately smiled and looked at Murong Li’er.

Murong Li'er nodded: "Yes, Empress Dowager Xie, empress dowager, you can call me Li'er from now on." She smiled.

"Okay, I can see that Li'er is a good girl." When she said that, she still gritted her teeth, she still remembered Murong Li'er's answer just now.

"Then please move the dining table. The servants should have served all the dishes. It won't taste good if it's cold!" As she said, the empress dowager stood up, and the maids beside her hurried over, stretched out her right hand, and waited for the empress dowager to put the food on the table. Put your left hand on it.

But after a long time, she didn't see the empress dowager's movement, so the maid looked up with surprise on her face.

At this time, the Empress Dowager was reaching out to Murong Li'er: "Li'er, I wonder if you can help Ai's family to the dinner table?"

It is clear that the Empress Dowager is testing Murong Li'er, and Murong Li'er also knows that she looks at Kangxi, who stands behind the Empress Dowager and nods; the Empress Dowager also knows the hint exchange between them, and smiles: "Li Are you unwilling or not?"

Murong Li'er leaned over, awkwardly said: "Yes." She stretched out her right hand, and the Empress Dowager took her left hand.

When Murong Li'er turned around, she pouted and glared at Kangxi: I never had to help people, but I became a slave here, even though your mother-in-law is testing me, why?I am not who you are! "

Kangxi blinked, indicating that she had done a good job, and followed behind with a silent smile. Thinking of Murong Li'er's answer just now, he wanted to laugh insincerely.

The dining table was only two steps away, "Sit down, it's rare to have a meal with the emperor today." The empress dowager said and sat down at the dining table, Kangxi also sat down, and Murong Li'er sat beside the empress dowager.

Kangxi looked at the dishes in front of him: "Emperor Niang, why doesn't today's stir-fried cabbage heart with kidney flowers look like it was made by the imperial dining room?"

The Empress Dowager laughed out loud: "Your Majesty has really good eyesight. Today's Stir-fried Choi Sum with Kidney Flowers is indeed not made by the imperial chef, but by your concubine."

"Oh? Which concubine?" Kangxi asked, he was very surprised and flustered, and quickly looked at Murong Li'er.

Since Murong Li'er responded to him with an expression of indifference, it should have nothing to do with her; seeing Murong Li'er's expression, Kangxi felt a little angry.

The Empress Dowager clapped her hands twice, and a woman came out from outside the room. Looking up, she turned out to be Concubine Yi whom she had met just now.

The current Concubine Yi has changed into a more ordinary outfit: "The concubine sees the emperor, the emperor's mother!" Her voice became gentle, and she saluted Kangxi and the empress dowager.

"Concubine Yi, you don't need to be too polite, come and have a meal with us." The Empress Dowager said with a smile.

"Yes, Queen Mother." Concubine Yi smiled and sat beside Kangxi.

Murong Li'er was thinking about whether to say hello, but Kangxi gave her a wink to indicate that she didn't need to salute.

Concubine Yi raised her eyes and saw Murong Li'er: "The honored guests are here too, it's strange that the concubine didn't know, and didn't cook a few more dishes." Concubine Yi said, she laughed, her eyes were like the moon, and the correct one was like a sickle .

Murong Li'er replied embarrassingly: "Your Concubine Yi, don't bother, I'm just a passer-by."

"A passerby? What is a passerby?" Concubine Yi couldn't understand, not only Concubine Yi, but everyone present couldn't understand!

Only then did Murong Li'er realize that sometimes people in the Qing Dynasty didn't even know what she said! "It's just that I'm just a passer-by and I'll be leaving in a while, so Empress Yifei and Empress Dowager don't need to take care of me too much."
