Chapter 30
Cang Lingyue was originally very satisfied with her smile, but after looking at Chu Ci for a while, she suddenly stopped and her eyes slowly moved downward...
Chu Ci almost instantly understood what this guy was thinking, and he immediately straightened his chest hard without thinking, and said in a very tragic tone: "If you don't believe me, please touch me!"
"..." Cang Ling held his forehead and "Go back."
It was already a smooth day, and Chu Ci was ready to take advantage of Cang Lingyue's mood to ask him for reward after she played with her.
But something happened in the evening.
Cang Lingyue suddenly came to the palace.
After Gu Shengge arrived at Anyang Palace, Cang Lingyue began to discuss countermeasures with him to resolve the bandits, but did not let Chu Ci avoid it.
Seeing these two people talking about serious matters, Chu Ci was embarrassed to disturb him and could only stand beside him and wait.
Cang Lingyue's speech speed was very slow, and he said it casually, which made Chu Ci feel that he was deliberately delaying time.
After nightfall, Gu Shengge suddenly frowned, then stood up and bowed and said, "Your Majesty, since there is a countermeasure to this matter, I suddenly feel a little uncomfortable. Can you allow me to say goodbye first? I will come to apologize to Your Majesty in the future."
Cang Lingyue didn't say anything, nodded as permission, and then said to Chu Ci: "You send Zuo Xiang out."
Chu Ciba couldn't seize this opportunity and responded quickly. When he walked out of the main hall and looked at the guards at the gate of Anyang Palace far away, he asked in a low voice: "A Sheng, what's wrong with you? What's wrong with you?"
Gu Shengge smiled and shook his head, and replied softly: "I just made an excuse to let you rest for a while. If you can't move for so long, you must be tired, right?"
Even though he had long seen Gu Shengge's meticulousness and thoughtfulness, Chu Ci was still moved every time, and he stuck out his tongue embarrassedly and said, "A Sheng, you are always so good!"
Gu Shengge smiled and touched Chu Ci's head, as intimate as before, and then asked: "The bamboo leaf green you want me to prepare for you is ready. When will you use it?"
"If nothing unexpected happens, I will leave the palace tomorrow evening, and I will go and get it."
"You never drink such a strong wine, who did you prepare for this time?" Gu Shengge suddenly asked.
Chu Ci smiled and said, "A person I really want to win over! If nothing unexpected happens, I hope he can use it for me."
"Isn't you a friend?" Gu Shengge asked with interest.
"No, only those who treat me as a friend will consider whether to treat him as a friend. If there is no such person, then I would rather have no friends than take the initiative to try." Chu Ci replied seriously.
"Well, just be sure of yourself." Gu Shengge said, reaching out to lift Chuci and brushing the wind-blown hair behind his ears, and then reminded him, "If there is enough time tomorrow, stay at home for dinner. My father must have a lot to say to you."
"Well, I understand! A Sheng." Chu Ci's face looked worried, "Although you told me that your body is fine, I always feel that you have become much weaker after returning from Jiangnan. However, since you don't want to say it, I won't ask, but don't worry me."
"..." Gu Shengge was silent for a moment, but after all, he didn't say anything. He gently patted Chu Ci's shoulder and left.
Chu Ci kept watching Gu Shengge's figure disappear from his sight, and then turned around and planned to discuss leaving the palace with Cang Lingyue.
But as soon as she turned around, she was stunned. At the gate of the main hall, the man who stood with his hands behind his back and was not angry and powerful, was Cang Lingyue, who should have stayed inside and saw nothing!
But now, he probably saw it all!
Chu Ci didn't have time to think too much, so he walked over quickly. Before he spoke, he found that Cang Lingyue's face was really bad, so he spoke carefully: "Your Majesty, why are you coming out..."
Cang Lingyue stared at Chu Ci with a blank expression. She kept seeing her guilty and thought that he was going to talk about the matter with her and Zuo again, but he heard him say lightly, "I'm hungry."
Chu Ci breathed a sigh of relief and asked diligently: "Your Majesty, what do you want to eat? I immediately ordered the imperial kitchen to deliver it to you!"
"You go and make me an hour-night snack, hurry up." Qingpiaopiao said this, and Cang Ling turned around and went back.
Chu Ci was stunned for a while before he was sure that he had heard it correctly. What Cang Lingyue said just now was indeed asking her to make him a midnight snack with her!
Chu Ci began to worry about whether to run in without fear of death and told Cang Lingyue that her cooking skills were really bad, and that he would not dare to eat even if she dared to do it.
But Liufu, who rushed over after hearing the sound, said respectfully: "Master Chu, come with me. Let's go to the imperial kitchen now. You can't let Your Majesty wait for a long time!"
Chu Ci had no choice but to follow Liufu to the imperial kitchen.
At this time, the palace maids and eunuchs in the imperial kitchen had already rested. Liu Fu heard Cang Lingyue's order to ask Chu Ci to make midnight snacks, so he had no intention of calling an imperial kitchen to help. Even he stood beside him with a whisk in his arms and waited for Chu Ci to do it himself.
Chu Ci looked around the imperial kitchen and began to think about whether she would make scrambled eggs with tomatoes or make cucumbers with vinegar? Otherwise, put a bowl of clear water?
Perhaps seeing Chu Ci's entangled expression was really pitiful, Liufu couldn't help but remind him: "Mr. Chu, Your Majesty loves sweet food."
"I know." Chu Ci's face wrinkled into a ball, and he said helplessly, "But I can't do it."
"..." Liu Fu was also stupid. After all, His Majesty has always been picky about food. He thought that this Guard Chu had such exquisite cooking skills that His Majesty chose him, but he didn't expect that he could not even make a dessert?
"What?" Chu Ci said carefully, "Is it okay to mix sugar with tomatoes?"
"..." After all, he can make desserts, but he can make desserts!
Chu Ci flashed his mind at this time, and he couldn't hide his excitement and asked, "Is there a pear blossom here?"
"There are no fresh pear blossoms, so I have to go to the Imperial Garden to pick them. But there are all pear honey petals stored a few days ago. Oh, and there are also aged pear blossom wine brewed by the Imperial Kitchen in previous years."
Liu Fu found out the things while saying that, and placed them in front of Chu Ci one by one, and asked, "Master Chu, which one do you want to use?"
"It's quite complete!" Chu Ci said casually with a smile, "Your Majesty likes pear blossoms?"
"Your Majesty, there should be no flower you particularly like. Concubine Ning likes pear blossoms very much. These things are also prepared for her!" Liu Fu replied.
Chu Ci had already picked out the pear blossom wine to make pastries. After hearing Liu Fu's words, he stopped and repeated it in confusion: "Concubine Ning likes pear blossoms?"
"Yes!" Liu Fu replied, not realizing anything wrong.
Chu Ci stopped talking, suppressed a little bit of inexplicable strangeness in his heart, and began to make pastries.
She is indeed not proficient in cooking at all, but she only knows how to do the same thing, which is the Lihuazu that Gu Shengge once taught her step by step.
Unfortunately, Chu Ci was too impatient that time, and the pastries he made were neither formed nor ugly, so she finally poured them out in person, so now, she is actually not sure that she can make them well.
But this is the only thing she can try, so even if she is not sure, she can only try it with a tough bullet.
Fortunately, Chu Ci has a good memory. After so long, he has been exploring himself and has slowly followed the steps. What surprised her was that although the pastries she made this time were still not very good, this time she could finally see that she was making pieces of milky white pastries, not pieces of yellow and unknown objects...
The second time I cooked like this, Chu Ci was very satisfied. He carefully installed the plate, picked it up and walked back. He couldn't wait to try the very picky beauty emperor whether the pastry that he would definitely complain about because of his poor appearance was delicious.
But since Chu Ci wasted some time in making this exquisitely crafted pastry, Liu Fu didn't seem to be as happy as her, but instead suggested tactfully: "Sir Chu, why don't you follow the servant on the path so that we can save some time."
In this way, you can master a relatively secret path in the palace, and Chu Ci is of course unsuccessful.
So Liufu led Chu Ci to turn into a secret path behind a rockery step by step, and then the two of them rushed back as soon as possible.
Liufu was determined to go back quickly, while Chu Ci took a closer look at the terrain on both sides while walking, and carefully recorded the location here.
Halfway through the journey, Chu Ci glanced inadvertently, but he saw that behind a big rock in front of the left seemed to be... someone!
It was a quiet and remote road in the middle of the night, but there were still people hiding in such a place. No one believed it when it was open and honest!
Of course, Chu Ci would not give up this opportunity to understand the secrets of the palace. He deliberately slowed down and fell behind Liufu. Then, while he was concentrating on moving forward, he flashed to the side, and then held his breath and moved slowly towards the direction where she saw someone.
As we got closer, we heard a woman lowering her voice and saying anxiously: "The Empress is so abnormal in her health these days, can she have it?"
The other female voice was much more calm, "It seems."
"Ah! What should I do? The Empress said she refused to call the imperial physician to come to see her. How can we tell His Majesty?" The woman's voice became even more anxious.
Another silent for a moment, then said softly: "Since the Empress is not allowed to call the imperial physician to see her, she must have already understood her physical condition, but she doesn't want to let others know."
"Why?" The impatient voice was puzzled, "Now the concubine Ning in the palace is favored by her. Our empress has been suppressed a lot. She finally got pregnant and is still the eldest son of His Majesty!"
