After seeing off the group of guests with unknown intentions, Xie Ning had a bowl of sherbet and waited for lunch to be delivered.
Let’s just say that a pregnant woman’s appetite is weird and unpredictable.
She really wanted to eat something sweet these days, and something slightly sour was perfect.
When I think of the bowl of hawthorn soup I had in previous years, my mouth watered three feet long.
But she can't eat hawthorn now, so she can only substitute it with other fruits.
Qing He took the empty bowl, handed her warm water and asked her to rinse her mouth, and carefully advised: "Master, there is no need to take what Gao Jieyu just said to heart.
Nothing is as valuable as your body now."
Xie Ning smiled: "Do you think I'm stupid?
They are not happy to see a new member in the palace, and it's Concubine Shu's family.
According to Gao Jieyu, she is young and beautiful.
Concubine Shu will remind the emperor of his preferences and habits, and it will be with Concubine Shu.
The newcomers next to me are different.”
The emperor's days in the harem are not long, and if the newcomers take the spotlight, it will be difficult for the old ones to pick up the leftovers and roast them.
Xie Ning has no intention of being a gunman for others.
When Gao Jieyu praised the two girls for being beautiful and cute, she felt really sad for a moment.
These two Miss Lin are both ladies from aristocratic families in the capital.
To be sent to the palace, they must be the best among the best, and they must be much better than her.
Concubine Shu has served the emperor for many years, and she should be more familiar with the emperor's preferences and tastes than anyone else.
If you have excellent conditions and know how to cater to people who like you, being favored is something that is just around the corner.
But she quickly thought about it.
As early as the first time she accompanied Cheng Chong, she foresaw that this day would eventually come, and new people were constantly being selected in the palace.
And she also got a treasure that only belonged to her.
Xie Ning's appetite was not affected at all during lunch.
Today's lunch dishes in the dining room were still rich but not extravagant.
According to Xie Ning's current situation, eating like this is beyond the rules, but she is pregnant now, and the people in the kitchen are very good at figuring things out.
During these days, even the emperor's meals must be given to Xie Meiren, and efforts should be made to make her eat happily and comfortably.
As long as Xie Meiren eats well, the emperor will be happier than eating it himself.
However, Xie Meiren is actually easy to serve, and her taste is not tricky, but the taste of pregnant women is more changeable.
Xie Ning liked the crispy fish, ruyi rolls, sesame mixed with shepherd's purse, and tea-flavored mushroom soup presented in the dining room today.
The crispy fish skin is slightly sweet and sour, and tastes crispy and has the unique smoothness of the fish skin.
The cabbage sum and shredded radish rolled in the Ruyi roll are quite crisp and not greasy.
Shepherd's purse mixed with sesame seeds is a seasonal wild vegetable that is rarely found in the palace.
Xie Ning especially likes this.
She used to eat these when she was at home.
There is no crispy and fresh vegetables to eat all winter.
In early spring, these small green vegetables are especially rare and rare.
There are many ways to eat shepherd's purse.
It is suitable for stir-frying, mixing and making stuffings for steamed buns and dumplings.
Poor people will steam dumplings with mixed noodles and chopped shepherd's purse.
They will carry two of them when working in the fields or when going out.
They can be used as vegetables.
It's time to eat to satisfy hunger again.
I couldn't eat this after entering the palace.
I didn't expect to see it again today.
Xie Ning almost finished the plate of cold shepherd's purse, and ended up with a bowl of delicious mushroom soup.

It is said that these fungi grow in tea gardens.
I don’t know if it is for this reason, but it tastes particularly fragrant and delicious.
Fang Shanggong felt much more at ease when he saw that she was eating well.
Gao Jieyu's group of people really don't have any good intentions.
They were very afraid of the newcomers, but they were unwilling to offend Concubine Shu, and they probably gave away many good words in front of Concubine Shu.
He turned around and ran to Yong'an Palace to provoke.
If Xie Ning is arrogant just because she is pregnant, and says or does something in front of the emperor, it is certain that he will become enemies with Concubine Shu, and the emperor will most likely not like such jealous words and deeds by women.
Killing two birds with one stone in this way, Gao Jieyu and the others will definitely smile with crooked teeth if they find out.
They thought that even if Xie Ning was not provoked by them to seek trouble with the emperor, which would make her feel uncomfortable and affect her and the child in her belly, then Gao Jieyu and the others would still agree to their wish.
They wanted to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, but Xie Meiren didn't do what they wanted.
Fang Shanggong held Qingmei's hand, checked over all the things Xie Ning would use for bathing after waking up from his nap, and nodded to indicate that these things were ready for use.
After the hand stove incident, Fang Shanggong was twice as careful as before, and had to personally inspect everything he ate and drank.
As a result, she would inevitably be exhausted, but otherwise she would be really worried.
After Qinghe and Qingmei discussed it, Qingmei served Fang Shanggong even more devotedly.
Fang Shanggong's ability was gained through decades of experience in the palace.
Young people like them who have not experienced much can never catch up.
This is not something that can be learned in just a few days or months.
At that time, Fang Shanggong came and said that he would serve Xie Meiren until she gave birth to a child.
To put it bluntly, Fang Shanggong is not considered Xie Meiren's slave, but is only seconded.
When she gives birth, Fang Shanggong's work will come to an end.
Her position is in the needlework bureau, and she will probably go back to work as an errand.
Of course Qinghe and Qingmei were reluctant to let her go.
Fang Shanggong was so experienced that the two of them learned a lot from him.
It would be great if Fang Shanggong could stay for a long time.
But they were afraid that Fang Shanggong would not be willing to stay.
At Fang Shanggong's age and physical condition, he doesn't have to do any work in the needlework bureau.
It's just for old age, and there are no risks.
If she stayed in Yong'an Palace, there would be no way for her to improve her job rank.
At her age, she was already looking down on power and glory, so the risk would be great.
If people don't want to stay, it's a matter of course.
Just like the hand stove thing happened last time, who knows who will be involved again?
Xie Ning also used the dinner for himself.
Hu Rong was well-informed and knew that the emperor had gone to Yanning Palace for dinner, so he didn't say much when he came back.
In the past, the emperor often went to Yanning Palace.
Sometimes he would come over after seeing Princess Yuyao.
Sometimes he would go to Yong'an Palace for dinner and then rarely stay overnight in Yanning Palace.
But I can't tell today.
When Concubine Shu used the emperor to see the child, she might resort to tricks to keep him, but the person who slept with him at night didn't know who it was.
There is no need to tell the master this kind of news, it would be heartbreaking to hear it.
Hu Rong despises Concubine Shu for doing such a thing, asking her sister and niece to be her helpers to compete for favors when she is old, but he is a eunuch, he doesn't see anything important.
What matters most is whether the emperor sees it. superior Mostly because of it.
She is young, beautiful, and of noble birth.
I heard she is good at playing music, chess, calligraphy, and painting.
All men would like such a beauty.
Fang Shanggong walked slowly over with a stick, and Hu Rong quickly stood up and went over to help her: "Why are you here, old man?

If you have anything to do, just say hello, and let us do the errands."
Fang Shanggong asked: "When the hot water is ready, let the kitchen prepare two of the emperor's favorite dishes and heat up some snacks."
Hu Rongting was puzzled: "The emperor is having dinner at Yanning Palace, and we have to prepare meals."
Moreover, the emperor may not be able to come in the evening, so all the preparations will be in vain.
"Just go and get ready when I ask you to go."
Hu Rong responded quickly: "Yes, I will tell you right away."
Older people tend to do things properly.
Even if the emperor doesn't come, they have to be prepared for peace of mind.
Anyway, no one dared to say a word even if it cost money.
Hu Rong went to the dining room and came back.
Before he arrived at Yong'an Palace, he saw the emperor's chariot approaching at Anhong Gate.
Hu Rong was afraid that he had seen it wrong, so he rubbed his eyes hard.
Why is the emperor coming here?
Even if you don’t stay overnight and only have meals, it’s a bit early to come here now.
The dinner will be used up so quickly.
He knelt there and waited.
The chariot stopped in front of him.
Bai Hongqi greeted him with a smile: "Li Yuan looks just like you, why are you waiting here?"
Hu Rong said quickly: "The younger one went to the dining room and just came back."
Bai Hongqi asked him to get up and follow the chariot.
Hu Rong wanted to find out something, but he also knew not to talk nonsense, especially about the emperor.
Besides, Bai Hongqi couldn't get anything out of his mouth, so he might as well save his energy and work elsewhere.
By the way, Fang Shanggong may know.
She had just ordered to prepare meals and snacks for the emperor.
Could it be that Fang Shang Palace had better information than she did?
Hu Rong quickened his pace and almost ran at a trot before he could catch up without falling behind.
Not to mention Hu Rong, even Xie Ning was surprised when he heard the announcement that the emperor was coming.
Come at this hour, is it possible that the emperor hasn’t had his dinner yet?
She met them at the door, and just as she bent her knees, the emperor was already in front of her, hugging her in his arms: "I told you not to worry about these etiquette, and be careful not to scare the child."
Xie Ning said: "It's not that easy to be surprised."
The emperor took her into the house and asked, "What did you use after dinner?"
"The sweet soup tonight is good."
Xie Ning asked, "Would the Emperor want to try it?"
"Then let someone bring it over and have a few more."
Xie Ning was very surprised.
Could it be that the emperor hadn't eaten yet?
Because Hu Rong had already given the order, the dining room moved quickly.
The emperor changed his clothes and sat down to take a sip of tea, and the dining table was placed.
Hu Rong was so impressed by Fang Shang Gong that he really wanted to kneel down and kowtow to learn this skill.
It's hard to tell what the emperor likes to use in the dining room, but they are also very clever.
The emperor likes to dine with Meiren Xie, so even if their tastes are not all the same, they can probably agree with each other.
So I picked up Xie Meiren's dinner dishes and prepared a few more dishes, and sent them along with the sweet soup.
The sweet soup is steaming hot and exudes a rich aroma.
The emperor filled a bowl and stirred it with a spoon.
The fruits, nuts and other things in the soup were almost stewed.

The taste was as sweet and thick as honey.
The fruit pieces melted on the tip of the tongue without chewing.
It was hot.
After drinking it, I really feel very comfortable.
"Yes, it is easy to get angry in early spring.
Drinking this is comfortable and reduces the heat."
Xie Ning was dining with the emperor, and the eunuchs had no use for her.
The dish of mixed shepherd's purse was served again at noon.
As expected, the emperor also liked this dish very much.
"The study is almost done.
Your Majesty, would you like to move over and see if there is anything else that needs to be added or deleted?
Or tell them to pack it up as soon as possible."
The emperor said "Hello".
This winter has been so cold that several water pipes burst in the whole building.
Unfortunately, if there is a house that has been unoccupied all year round, the water keeps leaking
