Becoming The Real Rich Daughter After Divorce

Chapter 55: The calculations of the nobles in the palace

In the summer, the kitchen is quite hot, and the cook in Hou Mansion was curious when she saw Qiao Jinniang coming, but she also knew that she was now the most favored young lady in the mansion.

I dare not say anything other than to please.

It was almost evening, and this summer night would have made people lose their appetite, so all Qiao Jinniang planned to cook was some appetizing food to cool off the heat.

After being busy for about half an hour, Qiao Jinniang followed the maid to bring out the dishes one by one.

The Marquis of Anyuan ordered people to put food boxes, but before putting them in the food boxes, he did not forget to taste them one by one.

One is to taste Jin Niang's craftsmanship, even if it is his own daughter, it is a matter of His Majesty's safety.

Qiao Jinniang saw An Yuanhou packing the box and asked, "Didn't father eat it by himself?"

The Marquis of Anyuan said, "Your Majesty ordered you to cook. You want to go to the palace to offer food for your father. Would you like to go together?"

Qiao Jinniang shook her head again and again. She had been to the East Palace and felt very depressed.

She was absolutely reluctant to go to the palace.

Qiao Jinniang said again: "Since I have to send it to the palace, I am afraid that the vegetables will be cold, so I will put some charcoal stoves with glutinous rice under the food box..."

Anyuan Hou said: "Okay."

The Marquis of Anyuan sent the dishes to the palace, and as soon as he entered the emperor's bedroom, he saw Lu Chen coming.

The Marquis of Anyuan hurriedly saluted, "Wei Chen has seen His Highness."

"Master Hou doesn't need to be more polite. In the future, I will rely more on Master Hou's teaching."

"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be." Anyuan Hou said repeatedly.

Lu Chen's eyes were placed on the food box in An Yuanhou's hand, "This is?"

The Marquis of Anyuan said: "These are a few home-cooked dishes made by the little girl herself. If they are not on the table, the minister will bring them to His Majesty to taste."

Lu Chen frowned and said, "Why go to the kitchen when you're sweating when you go out in summer?"

The Marquis of Anyuan also thought so, but the emperor's fate was difficult, "Jin Niang is also a person who loves to cook."

Emperor Huilin heard the voice outside and said, "Qiao Qing is here?"

The Marquis of Anyuan handed the food box to the **** next to him, and the father-in-law next to the emperor took it, and then went to use a silver needle to test the poison before placing it on the emperor's dining table.

The queen came slowly and said, "Your majesty let the ministers and daughters cook like this. If the word spreads, the fame of this lifetime will be ruined."

The Marquis of Anyuan said: "It's okay, it's a blessing for the little girl to be able to cook for His Majesty."

Emperor Huilin said to Anyuan Hou: "Aiqing has a heart, I will not forget Miss Qiao Er, Wang Quan, you choose a box of treasures from the queen's private treasury, and bring it back to Anyuan Hou and give it to Qiao Second Miss."

After the Marquis of Anyuan kneeled and thanked again, he left with Eunuch Wang Quan.

Lu Chen sat next to the queen and said to Emperor Huilin, "Father, the kitchen is smoky and hot, and there are no other cooks in the imperial kitchen, so why let Jin Niang cook?"

Emperor Huilin said angrily: "Go, go, since I feel sorry for Miss Qiao Er who is cooking, then you can eat in the imperial pantry today, don't come to my side to get in the way."

Lu Chen: "..."

Empress Zhou smiled and said, "Chen'er must have been accustomed to Jinniang's craftsmanship long ago, right?"

Lu Chen said: "She doesn't go to the kitchen very often. She is good at making some cakes, pickling some lo-mei, etc. It's too tiring and hurtful in the kitchen. Even if she wants to, I can't bear it."

The queen sighed, "Now that she is going to marry another person, you know that you can't bear it? Do you really want to watch her marry Li Yun?"

Lu Chen pursed his lips, "Of course not, the divorce letter she cares about, and the minister who demotes his wife to a concubine will give her an explanation. , but it doesn't look like it was sent from Chang'an.

Yong Wang Xian Fei and the others don't seem to know anything about Jin Niang and me, and they have checked it from the past post stations. This letter of divorce should not have been passed down from Chang'an. Maybe someone in Lin'an did it deliberately, so this matter has to go. Lin'an investigation to find out. "

The queen took a light sip of the yellow wine, "It's really not easy for you, Qiao Jinniang is preparing for her dowry, did you just remember the divorce?"

Lu Chen said slowly, "As long as the divorce is not true, my marriage with Qiao Jinniang is still there."

Emperor Huilin tasted a bowl of fish meat slices, and the appetizer was refreshing. He was still wondering why there was a faint aroma of wine on the fish meat. Hearing Lu Chen's words, he said:

"How can the marriage be counted? You are not ashamed when the prince of a country enters the merchant's house, and I am ashamed!"

Lu Chen cupped his hands and said, "Then the royal father can directly hand over the position of grandson to Brother Tuan, so that the son will not lose the face of the royal family."

Emperor Huilin ate a piece of fish, swallowed it and said, "How dare you think about it? What is the name of this dish?"

Lu Chen glanced at it and said, "This is the rotten fish fillet, Jinniang is a must for her to make rotten marinade, and the rotten duck feet and rotten chicken are delicious, and in the autumn and winter, the drunk crab is the best in the world. tasty."

The queen tasted it and said: "It's really good, but Chen'er, you said that the divorce book does not count, but you must know that our Tang Dynasty has regulations. If a man enters the marriage, the woman who enters the marriage also has the right to leave the husband."

Lu Chen said, "I don't believe she dares to divorce me."

However, the queen felt that according to Qiao Jinniang's temperament, she might not dare to divorce her husband.

Early the next morning, it started to rain in Chang'an, where there was little rain.

Qiao Jinniang thought about making some bad taste. Yesterday, she found a lot of unused lees in the kitchen of Hou's mansion, which is a good thing.

She was dealing with goose meat and goose paws with her maids in the courtyard.

Yuyan came in from outside the Moon Gate and said, "Miss, Miss, Young Master Li is here, and now he is kneeling at Mrs. Hou's side to plead guilty. Would you like to go take a look?"

Qiao Jinniang washed her red hands, untied the loops on her body, and went to Madam Hou's courtyard with an umbrella.

I saw Li Yun kneeling at the porch, and the raindrops fell along the porch and had already wet Li Yun's robe.

Qiao Jinniang went over to Li Yun and said, "Cousin please get up first."

Li Yun looked at Qiao Jinniang with a guilty look and said, "Cousin, whether the marriage is successful or not, it is indeed my fault. You are laughed at by the ladies in Chang'an."

"Mrs. Hou annoyed me and punished me to kneel, and I deserved it."

At this time, Mrs. Qiao came over and saw Li Yun kneeling outside the door. When the maid who came to report said that she had been kneeling for a quarter of an hour, Mrs. Qiao was also annoyed.

Mrs. Qiao went directly inside and said loudly, "Sister-in-law, since this marriage has already been withdrawn, why should you treat our brother Yun like this? He will have the imperial examinations soon, and he is also famous, so you deserve it. Did he kneel like that?"

Mrs. Hou said: "He came to take the blame for himself. You don't know what the daughters said about me, Jin Niang, yesterday?"

Mrs. Qiao snorted softly: "This is the gate that Qiao Jinniang looks down on my brother Yun and wants to enter the royal family!

It's not good to talk about the matter of resignation, so that the nobles in the royal family found Ruyu and plotted against my brother Yun, but she gave her a legitimate reason to withdraw from the relatives!

Jin Niang is a second marriage, is she worthy of entering the royal family? For the position of a side concubine, I have tried my best! "

Qiao Jinniang asked Li Yun, "Is this true? Ruyu was ordered by the prince?"

Li Yun said: "Ruyu's confession was indeed calculated by a noble person in the royal family. She was afraid of offending that noble person, and she was afraid that the noble person would think of other ways to deal with me, so she agreed to that noble person..."

Qiao Jinniang clenched her hands tightly, picked up her umbrella and went outside the mansion, Lu Chen was simply deceiving people too much!
