Chapter 182 Who Owns the Roast Goose
It really is a Buddhist object obtained from the temple!
Such a precious and beautiful gift, and she was so mean. Although Lu Mingyang stayed at the fragrant beverage shop, his mind was already far away. Seeing that the sun was about to set, he hurried back to the palace.
"Second sister, don't be in such a hurry to leave. I'll bring you some fragrant drinks."
As a result, a large bucket of perilla-flavored drink was brought to the area. In the palace, everyone lined up with bowls in hand to receive it.
"Swindler!" Lu Mingyang looked at Nian'er who walked into the house to ask for money, and counted out a string of copper coins and threw them to her.
Yang Nian'er put the food box on her back on the desk with a smile, and took out two cups of coconut milk, cardamom and plum blossom drink. "This is the recipe that Brother Wei and I worked out together. I think it's the best. Try it."
Lu Mingyang took a sip and found it quite good. She wondered if he would like it. She was reluctant to drink more, so she waited for the food to arrive and took the drink to the table.
A cup before you sit down, a cup before I sit down.
In the past few days, Chu Mingzheng usually came back before dinner to eat with her. But this day, she waited for a long time, the food was cold, and Chu Mingzheng still didn't come back.
What are you busy with? Lu Mingyang touched his hungry stomach and ordered, "Heat it up."
Although it is not autumn yet, drinking cold fish soup will make sleeping uncomfortable.
"Princess, His Highness has returned." Huan Yun ran into the room, looking a little uncomfortable. "His Highness returned with Concubine Qin and went to the East Warm Pavilion."
Over the past few days, Chu Mingzheng was worried that Ling'er was not living well in Shoukang Palace, so he had asked Qin Miao to accompany her. Today, he should have gone to Shoukang Palace to pick her up.
"Don't worry about the heat!" Lu Mingyang picked up the chopsticks and started eating.
Huanyun said anxiously, "Princess, His Highness should be here soon."
"They must have eaten after returning from Shoukang Palace."
At this time, Lu Mingyang still held on to the idea that Chu Mingzheng would come over, but when the food was cleared away and it was time to go to bed, he still didn't come back.
Huanyun looked at the princess's distracted look and suggested, "Princess, would you like me to go and invite His Highness?"
"What do you mean by invitation?" She would never do something as jealous and embarrassing as snatching someone away. Lu Mingyang said impatiently, "You all should go down and rest!"
The princess was still awake, and as the maids beside her, how could Huanyun and Huanjin sleep? Huanyun stayed in the courtyard, while Huanjin went to inquire about the news in the East Warm Pavilion.
Not long after, Huan Jin came back and whispered, "His Highness has fallen asleep in the East Warm Pavilion. Everyone in the East Warm Pavilion is so happy."
Huanyun looked towards the dark doors and windows, frowning, "It's only been a few days, and the princess is already falling out of favor?"
As the princess's maids, they were much more glorious than other maids, but if they were deposed, they would suffer the most. Moreover, she had betrayed the concubine.
"Just one day!" Huan Jin couldn't stand her nervous look and pulled her back to the room.
Lu Mingyang in the room held his breath and waited until the footsteps disappeared, then silently drank two cups of chilled coconut milk, cardamom and plum blossom drink.
She was truly possessed, believing his body and soul belonged to her alone. As long as people have expectations, they will bleed.
But, Chu Mingzheng, you promised me the position of queen, but what did you promise her? The position of crown prince for your son?
The next morning, Qin Miao came to pay her respects to Lu Mingyang wearing a colorful flower-decorated dress. Her hair was also covered with colorful emerald feathers, and she looked extremely beautiful.
It would be better to say that he came to show off rather than to pay his respects.
Qin Miao sat down and raised her hand proudly. Mudan presented a long wooden box.
"Congratulations, sister!" Lu Mingyang let Huanyun accept it, trying his best to maintain a dignified demeanor: "I should give my sister a gift."
Qin Miao pursed her lips and smiled softly: "Sister, this is not a salute, this is a red scarf test. According to the royal family rules, the red scarf for the prince's wedding should be handed over to the palace for safekeeping to show the chastity of the royal women. And the scarves of my sisters are given to you for safekeeping. However,"
At this point, she paused deliberately, "My elder sister doesn't have one, so the Queen Mother has graciously allowed me to use my younger sister's instead. I'd also like to trouble my elder sister to help me send it to the palace."
That look is like contempt. How can you, a slut who lost your virginity before marriage, compare with me?
Lu Mingyang sneered, his eyes suddenly becoming fierce. "Then I wonder whose name should be used when the trial red scarf is sent in?"
"You..." Qin Miao's face flushed and she couldn't speak.
"Ok?"
Although she didn't want to cause trouble, it was still annoying to have people riding on her neck and shitting on her all the time. There were a bunch of people in the mansion who followed the wind, and she had to suppress this unhealthy trend.
Lu Mingyang smiled and said, "Although there are fewer sisters in the mansion now, we still have to follow the rules. Please prepare another one for yourself and send it to me."
This battle was another setback. Qin Miao felt uncomfortable and no longer in the mood to chat. She left, saying that she still had to prepare food for Brother Zheng.
After leaving the main courtyard, Qin Miao was furious and turned back to spit, "If you had hurt my face, and if I hadn't been staying in Shoukang Palace these few days, I wouldn't have let you take advantage of me."
Within half a day, this rumor spread throughout the palace. Everyone began to wonder who the real mistress of the palace was, and their minds became distracted.
The chef roasted two geese, but one was burnt. The other dishes were easy to order, but this one was ordered by both the main courtyard and the east warm room.
The head chef looked at the only remaining roast goose and asked his staff, "Which courtyard should we send this roast goose to?"
Someone suggested, "Of course, we should send it to whichever courtyard Your Highness goes to."
"Waste your nonsense!" The head chef was dissatisfied. Everyone knew that the emperor would not come back after lunch.
The group grumbled and discussed for a long time, but could not come to a conclusion. Mudan walked into the kitchen aggressively and urged them to hurry up. The head chef hurriedly ordered a roast goose to be sent over.
What was left for the princess was a burnt roast goose, but no one dared to give it to her.
Actually, Lu Mingyang didn't want to eat roast goose, but she planned to go to the Xiangyin Shop with Nian'er for lunch, so she asked someone. Yang Nian'er specifically mentioned roast goose.
When she was packing, she saw that there was no roast goose, so she asked about it. Unexpectedly, Huanyun burst into tears.
"This servant is useless. The princess didn't snatch it away."
"What are you fighting for? It's just a roast goose." Lu Mingyang changed the dish, picked up the lunch box and left, but he still felt a little uncomfortable.
At Nianluo Drink Shop, Yang Nian'er was already starving. When she saw the food, she started to eat it voraciously.
"Second sister, where is the roast goose?" she asked.
Lu Mingyang lied: "There are no geese in the house. Second sister will bring it to you tomorrow."
"It's okay!" Yang Nian'er sighed, "You said that goose meat is fishy and tough, what's so delicious about it? I just always remember that when I was a child, my father roasted a roast goose, but ended up giving the whole thing to my second uncle's family. His stinky third brother even showed off the goose leg in front of me."
"But now it's good. I have this shop and can support myself. From now on, I can eat whatever I want. No one will ever say to me, 'You little girl, you're a money-loser, what are you eating?'"
