The queen wants to run away every day

Chapter 145 Exploring Lu Changzai's Fiction and Reality

There was a gap in the window beside the heating kang, and occasionally cold wind would blow in. The imperial concubine glanced at the side hall and asked, "What about Lu Changzai's investigation?"

"The servant is about to tell you about this, my lord." Yaqin moved closer, and said, "The person sent out made a special trip to Lu Changzai's old house in Anhui. , had a close relationship with the son of the Dai family in the next street. It is rumored that Luzhi County also intends to betroth his daughter to the son of the Dai family, but who knows that the Dai family suffered a crime last year, and Mr. Dai was imprisoned and beheaded at the entrance of the downtown area. The two privately Naturally, there is no counting of the vows."

"The Dai family?" Concubine Ling asked with dark eyes, "Is it Dai Maoxing who works in the imperial dining room?"

Yaqin nodded and said: "That's right! Dai Maoxing was convicted of regicide, implicating the three clans, and Mr. Dai is his youngest son."

Concubine Ling sighed deeply: "This is really destined!"

Yaqin doubted: "Mother, do you think Lu Changzai entered the palace to avenge his sweetheart? If she really has such intentions, staying in Yanxi Palace will be a disaster sooner or later."

The concubine Ling thought deeply, and said: "It's too early to say whether it is a disaster or not. Fortune and disaster depend on each other. Now that we know her details, we can naturally guard against her and let her be used by us. Yaqin, go and prepare some Anhui food." , this palace is going to the side hall to find out about Lu Changzai's reality."

"Yes."

After noon, Yaqin carried the four-layer food box and led Concubine Ling to the side hall.

When Lu Chang heard that Concubine Ling came to visit, he hurried out to greet her, and said respectfully, "Concubine Ling concubine welcomes your concubine."

Concubine Ling smiled warmly, helped her up, and said: "You live in the same palace with me, there is no need to be polite, get up quickly."

"Thank you, ma'am." Lu Changzai ordered the concubine to take the seat, and then said: "The majesty can just summon the concubine to go over if there is something to do. How can I bother you to come to the concubine here."

"It's okay, I stay in the dormitory all day, it's really boring, it's good to walk around," Ling Fei said, and asked Yaqin to open the food box, put four plates of snacks on the table one by one, and said : "A new chef from Anhui has joined the small kitchen of Yanxi Palace. I thought, Lu Changzai, you are from Anhui, and you just happened to help me taste and taste. Can these foods be authentic?"

As the saying goes, being close to the hometown is timid. This is the first time that Lu Chang saw these Anhui dishes since he entered the palace, and he couldn't help feeling a lot in his heart.

Concubine Ling gave her a piece of thin dried tea, and said: "Lu Chang is trying this dried tea. It is boiled with red pepper, fennel, and sweet sauce. It is pure and delicious, especially this sweet sauce, which is similar to that of the imperial dining room. The special dipping sauce is not far behind."

Lu Changzai took a sip, and her eyebrows frowned slightly. The taste brought back many memories buried in her heart.

Concubine Ling stared at her with a smile, and asked: "Lu Changzai, how does it taste?"

Lu Changzai suddenly came back to his senses, smiled stiffly, and said: "The cooks in the empress's dining room are not bad, they are all authentic Anhui cuisine."

Concubine Ling raised her eyebrows and smiled: "Eat more if you like it. There are very few royal cooks of the Hui family in the palace. There used to be a chef surnamed Dai who was good at making all kinds of sauces. Unfortunately, he is gone now. Otherwise, sister Still have a good time.”

Hearing this, Lu Chang loosened the chopsticks in his hand, and a piece of dry tea fell to the ground.

Lu Changzai asked tentatively: "Not here anymore? Did you leave the palace because you are old?"
