Chapter 588 Stage

5days ago traverse Novels 2
Mrs. Huarui followed Jing Niang, walked through the long corridor between the red walls, turned north, and entered a yard, which was probably Jing Niang's residence.

Looking back at the alley-like corridor between the red walls, Mrs. Huarui seemed to have walked through a tunnel leading to another world.

The corridor was very neat, with stone brick floors, exquisite carvings on both sides of the wood, and stone-made lampstands on the roadside; however, it always makes people feel that there is something missing, by the way, it is vitality, because there are no flowers, plants and trees on both sides, which is completely different from the beautiful scene of the lush grass and trees in the Shu Palace and the courtyard.

Compared with the Shu Kingdom Palace, the structure here is square and rigid, and it has a lack of spirituality.

But Mrs. Huarui did not feel uncomfortable because she did not live in the painted building since she was born and enjoyed rich clothes and food. Although her childhood hometown looked beautiful in the mountains and rivers, it was wet and cold in winter and a lot of mosquitoes in summer. In addition, people had a difficult livelihood, so living there was not as good as it looked.

The Tokyo Imperial City is not that beautiful, but it is indeed very comfortable; the key is that the people here are extraordinary and attract the attention of the world. After all, it is the capital center of the Great Zhou, the largest country.

Mrs. Huarui felt a faint feeling that this place seemed to be a stage.

Because as long as all the stories that happen are spread, they will attract the attention of countless people, and some things will even be circulated in official and unofficial history for many years.

When they walked into the yard, several palace maids saw Jing's mother, and they all bowed their heads to avoid the road.Jing Niang ignored it and walked forward from the road under the eaves.

Mrs. Huarui took the initiative to speak: After the collapse of Shu Kingdom, I was taken care of by my mother for many times. I am grateful from the bottom of my heart.

Jing Niang said without looking back: No need.

Jing Niang was so arrogant when she spoke, so Mrs. Huarui naturally didn't care about her.

But what Mrs. Huarui said was really what she said in her heart. Others should have paid off her gratitude to Jing Niang back then; even if she ignores herself anymore, she can't say anything about her in terms of emotion or reason.

The two walked into the room. Jing Niang asked Mrs. Huarui to sit down in the living room first. Mrs. Huarui looked around and found that the decorations here were very luxurious, most of which were cleaned up by the palace people. Jing Niang obviously had no interest in those luxury goods.

A palace woman came up to serve tea respectfully. She gently placed the tea cup in front of Jing Niang and said softly: Eunuch Wang sent someone to say that the official family would come here to see you at the Youth hour.

Although the palace woman spoke very little, Mrs. Huarui sat opposite her and listened clearly to her ears.

For a moment, my mood was a little ups and downs... Although this place, although it seemed very quiet at first glance, it was actually an impetuous place that concentrated power and wealth.

Jingniang said: I understand, you go down.

The palace lady said: Look.

Mrs. Huarui looked at the appearance of Jing's mother wearing a coarse head and a wide robe. Apart from her face, she did not reveal anything unique to the woman.

She couldn't help but say: Jingniang, I don't know whether to say it or not...

Jingniang said: I'll just say anything my wife has.

Mrs. Huarui whispered: The official family values ​​Jing Niang, not only because you are capable or trust your personality.

Jing Niang looked at her and said quietly: How do you say this?

Mrs. Huarui believes that although Jing Niang acts very freely, she is also a thoughtful person, otherwise she will not be able to do the job of meticulous spies.

Mrs. Huarui said slowly: The master loves talents, and men are the best talents.It is more convenient for husbands to manage their business, and they must support their families, conceal their ancestors, think about future generations, and be dedicated to doing things for the official family.The government values ​​Jingniang because of the thoughts of love.

Jingniang did not deny it.

Mrs. Huarui couldn't help but blurt out: There are more than one or two women in the palace who are affectionate in the official family.If you don’t compete for favor, others will.Jing Niang can’t be too voluntary. If she doesn’t manage it, it will be very uncomfortable if someone plots on you from time to time.

How to operate?Jingniang asked quietly, her eyes staying on her beautiful face.

Mrs. Huarui felt this gaze and felt a little embarrassed.

I couldn't say a word in my heart: As a girl in Jing, it's impossible to monopolize an emperor. Instead of being jealous, it's better to find some allies... Of course, Mrs. Huarui is the best ally. The two of them had a favor for a long time and were extremely rare people who could trust a little.

Mrs. Huarui couldn't say this, and even she felt ashamed because her identity was Meng Chang's woman.

A woman’s reputation and integrity in the open are still very important. She is criticized in this regard and is easily attacked by the crowd.

Even she herself felt that it was wrong to abandon her old master and take the initiative to seduce others... I am afraid that Jing Niang would despise herself as a person.

But Mrs. Huarui was not yet ten years old and was proficient in poetry, calligraphy, piano and chess. Reading can make people think about it.

She knew her situation very well. As Duke of Qin, Meng Chang was essentially a prisoner; Mrs. Huarui's status and everything were maintained by the relationship between the Emperor of the Great Zhou and even the King of Jing Niang.

This shows that a small Tokyo official wanted to bully himself last time.

She was very hesitant, one was the entanglement between right and wrong, and the other was that she felt that she was too hasty and shameless, and she might be ruined.

Mrs. Huarui suddenly showed a very reluctant smile and said softly: We haven't met for a long time, so I won't talk about such heavy words.She turned to look at the direction of the sun outside the window and smiled, "My mother has helped me so much, I have nothing to repay you, why don't I make some side dishes for you."

Jingniang hurriedly said: There is a cook in the yard, why do you have the nerve to let your wife do that job?

Mrs. Huarui pursed her red lips and said briskly: When I was in Chengdu, my cooking skills were very famous and most people could not taste them. This is also my craft and I am willing to do it for my mother.After finishing, you happened to send someone to send me back.

Jing Niang pondered: Since the wife is kind, let’s stay and have a meal together... Your Majesty will come at the You hour.

Mrs. Huarui shook her head: That's not OK. After dinner, go back. It's dark. Can't people say it's at least?

……

The sun sets in the west, Guo Shao left Jinxiang Hall, and took a car to Xuanyou Gate to enter the harem.

He sat upright on it without squinting his eyes, and he knelt on the side of the road when he met the palace servants along the way.

Guo Shao was already accustomed to this noble situation at this time... he felt very good.

In life, after satisfying the basic food, clothing, housing and transportation, and losing freshness to various modern toys, what is not very different from ancient and modern times, ultimately, people pay attention to the relationship between people... dignity, status, and self-worth have become more important.

The Imperial City is a place that can make people inflate themselves. Guo Shao is the center of the imperial city, which is more important than anything else!Even the center of the world, billions of people respect his will!

The chariot walked steadily and slowly, and Guo Shao sat on it without saying a word. It took him a long time to think about it.

Sometimes he felt very strange, maybe because he became an emperor too quickly, and he was too young... A few years ago, he was still at the bottom of this world, but now, those powerful and powerful men with great pomp and awe-inspiring power are all under his feet, which makes him feel a little uneasy by chance.

However, Guo Shao decided to use real achievements to firmly prove his value and status, and to do something that no one in the world can do!

Jing Niang had already learned about the emperor's itinerary, so she brought the palace maid and eunuch outside the courtyard in advance. After a simple manner, Guo Shao entered her courtyard.

He immediately saw several exquisite side dishes on the table, and then smiled and said: "My Lady Jing is getting more and more careful."

Jing Niang looked strange and her eyes flashed. She finally whispered: Mrs. Huarui has been here, and she cooked the dishes.

oh?Guo Shao blurted out, where is the person?

Jingniang said: I'm leaving.I kept her, and she said it was not good to go back when it was dark.

Guo Shao lowered his head slightly, glanced at Jing Niang's face, and the old friendship between Jing Niang and Mrs. Huarui flashed in his heart. He sat down at the round table and said: Since all of them are ready, let's have a meal together first, don't say I'm really hungry.

He lifted the chopsticks in a big way and picked up a thin white piece of slices. He didn't know what kind of dish it was, but it looked very good anyway.Put it straight into his mouth and chew it.

At this moment, Guo Shao's expression changed slightly and his chewing slowed down.

This thing is very delicious!

It is crispy and crispy in the mouth, with a fragrance, and it feels refreshing after being used to eating meat... Not only that, the taste is also layered, and after swallowing it, it leaves a refreshing and sweetness, which is very delicate.

Guo Shao picked up another piece and looked carefully. He saw that the round thin slices were white and crystal clear. There was a layer of white fine powder on the outside, which was sprinkled very evenly and cut very carefully.

He bit it a little and tasted it carefully, thinking that the main body of the dish should be yam, and the powder may be accompanied by lotus powder and some seasonings.

This dish is placed on a white jade-like lace plate with pickled sugar apricots in the middle, which is an art and looks like a lotus... It is easy to make people feel that the cooks are very attentive and serious.

He seemed to see a graceful woman in the kitchen, thinking about who she cooked for, while she was busy silently, and her skirt floated gently with her figure.

There seemed to be the fragrance and affection between the jade white fingers remaining on the dishes.

Guo Shao felt warm in his heart. He felt that he had not become numb because of the baptism of blood and fire, and was still easily moved by such little things.

It took him a long time to come back from his trance and find that Jing Niang is staring at him intently.Guo Shao then realized that he had lost his composure just now.

A dish is really that powerful, and it has caught your heart away?Jingniang whispered.

Guo Shao hurriedly said: He is indeed very good at cooking, much better than the imperial chefs in the palace.Jingniang also tasted it.After saying that, he put the sliced ​​slices in his small bowl, stretched out his chopsticks and picked up a piece for Jingniang, and said a little embarrassedly, "Try it, Mrs. Huarui is a dish for you, I'll just enjoy it."

Jingniang said: She made it specifically for you because she knew you were coming.
