"How is my body?"
The old emperor looked at her face and asked, looking expectant.
He Jiuniang did not answer directly, but said: "The emperor already knows, why bother to ask again?"
"I, I am not a doctor, how could I know? "
"The emperor is not a doctor, but there are so many imperial doctors in the palace, and the emperor has not asked anyone to see them? Besides, if the emperor really feels that his health is not good, how can he still sit down? If you can live with it, you must have gone to Jingzhou to find me, right?"
The old emperor cherished his own life so much. If he was really uncomfortable, how could he let her delay for so long?
The old emperor’s little thoughts were exposed. For a moment, he didn’t know what to say. He smacked his lips twice and said nothing.
Usually when the old emperor was getting acupuncture, he would definitely take the opportunity to sleep, but this time he hadn't seen He Jiuniang for a long time. He had saved up a lot of things to say to her, so he stayed awake.
"You said it right before, the prince is really difficult to take on big responsibilities. I have loved him all these years in vain."
The old emperor suddenly chatted with her about household matters. The eunuchs and maids have long been accustomed to it, and there is nothing strange about standing aside.
He Jiuniang didn’t know where the old emperor’s hobby came from, and he actually liked chatting with her. However, she would not let go of any opportunity to eat melon, so she did not refuse this melon.
"My wife has never said anything like this. Your Majesty, please don't talk about it at will."
He Jiuniang remembered that she had only said something about Prince Lin before, but she didn't mean anything. When it comes to the prince's affairs, this old man should not throw dirty water on himself.
“Didn’t you say that?”
“Definitely not!”
“Okay, okay, then let me tell you what I said.” Don't interrupt the business!"
The old emperor's obedient look made the surrounding maids and eunuchs look sideways. Their emperor was really very unusual towards Mrs. Lu!
Even when it comes to Concubine Liu Guifei, or the prince whom she loved the most before, she has never been so patient and tolerant.
After hearing his recognition, He Jiuniang listened carefully without interrupting.
"The reason why I have always kept the prince is because I suffered such humiliation when I was young, and I didn't want the prince to follow in my footsteps. Who would have thought that the prince would be so useless after so many years? , it’s just that I can’t achieve any political achievements, and it’s just embarrassing for me!”
The old emperor’s words put all the mistakes on the prince, and completely removed himself.
He Jiuniang felt something was wrong when she heard that, and took the initiative to correct her: "I'm afraid that's not the case. If the prince was really capable, he wouldn't be able to sit on the throne for so many years. Your Majesty, you have to speak with your conscience in mind, don't Blame all mistakes on others."
The old emperor was angry: "You..."
"That's right. Is there a possibility that the prince is not stupid? , I just know what kind of person you are, Your Majesty, so I have been doing what you like all these years to please you. Because a prince as sharp as King Chen has been forced into a desperate situation by you, if the prince wants to be safe and sound, he must be willing to Mediocrity meets all the expectations of your father."
"You!"
The old emperor's breathing was a little heavy, and he was obviously very angry.
He Jiuniang didn’t panic at all, and continued: "It’s your fault, Your Majesty, I told you before that you can’t listen to the truth at all. Just ask yourself Conscience, do you think so in your heart? But you should also see the facts clearly. If King Chen had not guarded this country for you all these years, the country would have been annexed by Dongting and Nantai. Why should you deceive yourself? I don't deny that King Chen has some tricks, but isn't that what he should do? When he met an indifferent emperor and a partial father like you, how could he survive to this day if he didn't use some tricks? You should be lucky that Chen Your Highness is filial enough. Even so, he is respectful to you and has no intention of forcing you into the palace."
Come on, you actually talked about forcing the palace, that's treason!
They always felt that Mrs. Lu was angry with Prince Jing today, so she deliberately said these words to annoy the old emperor.
But just now the old emperor was devoted to Mrs. Lu. Isn’t Mrs. Lu still relieved?
Seeing how angry she is, I learned another lesson today. If you want to survive, you must not mess with this ancestor.
The old emperor didn’t know why. He knew that every time he chatted with He Jiuniang, he was the one shaking with anger, but there were some things in his heart that he just liked to tell her, even though he knew she would He still wanted to tell her about the curse, feeling that as long as he told her, nothing would matter.
He didn’t want to say anything at the moment, he just wanted to take a few breaths, otherwise his health would be wasted during this period.
Seeing that he was silent, He Jiuniang was too lazy to say anything more. While waiting, she ran to eat all the old emperor's pastries and other things on the table.
As worthy of being an emperor, the food is really good. Each small pastry is made so exquisitely and delicately, both in appearance and taste.
The old emperor was angry for a long time, but he didn't say anything when he saw her eating so happily.
He Jiuniang ate several pieces of pastry and asked: "Your Majesty, my wife treated you, can you give me some reward?"
"You What do you want?"
The old emperor pursed her lips. She wanted anything except the throne.
He Jiuniang said unceremoniously: "If I want to open a club, I need such a master chef to make desserts. How about you give me one or two? Don't worry, I will definitely follow the instructions of the palace." I will treat them according to the customs in the country and prevent them from being wronged after me."
The old emperor thought it was a big deal, but he didn't expect that he just wanted two white case masters. This is not simple.
"This is not a big deal, and they are already members of the palace. The palace will always provide them with food and clothing, so you don't need to worry about them. I will send them to your house soon." "
He Jiuniang's eyes lit up. She didn't expect that the palace would take care of the people who had been sent out. This benefit is really good.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. If possible, find two people who are close to each other. I am afraid of trouble. If I bring a pair of enemies back, I will be annoyed to death."
< br />The old emperor wrinkled, and the old father-in-law beside him reminded him: "Your Majesty, these pastries that Mrs. Lu likes to eat happen to be made by the Peng family. Both of them are responsible for white cases and have superb craftsmanship. , very suitable."
"They are actually a couple?'
The old emperor was a little surprised, and his father-in-law nodded with a smile: "Yes, the Peng family has been working in the imperial kitchen for generations. , there is nothing to say about their craftsmanship, and they are all honest and responsible people. "
The old emperor nodded, but did not make a decision immediately. Instead, he asked He Jiuniang: "That's a couple. Do you want it?" ”
“Nature is the best! ”
He Jiuniang also heard what her husband said. The two of them came from a family of pastries and were extremely satisfied.
