The one you like

Red gold necklace inlaid with rubies, suet jade pendant, agate beads...
After turning it out in the same way, He Yanxiu asked Xing'an to pack the things one by one.
"Send it to the king's house in Ping'an County." He Yanxiu said.
Xing'an, "..."
Reciprocity is a common thing.
But in your current situation, do you still need to reciprocate with courtesy?
How about taking money from one pocket and stuffing it into another? Don't let servants like them get tired of running back and forth, okay...
Very tiring.
It's also weird.
——
At the summer solstice, the weather gets hotter and hotter.
Concubine Shu was about to give birth, and she couldn't bear the heat even more with her big belly. In addition, she had difficulty moving, so she stayed in the palace all day long.
Qin Yishu was afraid that Concubine Shu would be bored, so he often visited her when he had time.
After finishing the government affairs early today, Qin Yishu came to Concubine Shu's palace to have lunch with her.
When they arrived, they brought a lot of fresh southern fruits, and even ordered people to use ice in Concubine Shu's palace to cool down the heat.
Lychees, loquats, mangosteens... they are all rare things, and they are not easy to preserve. They can only be covered with ice.
On such a summer day, just looking at these things and their display makes people feel comfortable and cool.
Seeing this, Concubine Shu raised her eyebrows and smiled, "I should be grateful for the emperor's reward, but I really can't eat these. Once I eat them, my stomach will be sour and I will feel nauseous."
"That's it..." Qin Yishu was a little embarrassed, "I didn't think carefully. I just thought that you are pregnant and afraid of heat, and you probably like to eat some refreshing fruits."
"Whatever you want to eat, I'll prepare it for you."
"This is what I want to eat..."
Halfway through Concubine Shu's words, the maid brought the bowl to Concubine Shu and said, "Your Majesty, the red oil cold skin is ready."
Here comes what she likes to eat!
Concubine Shu took the bowl and chopsticks, couldn't help but swallowed when looking at the red food in the bowl, and then put the chewy and refreshing cold skin into her mouth.
While eating, he smacked his lips and said, "It seems it's not spicy enough. Add some more red oil."
"That's right, here are some dishes that I eat every day."
"Yes." The maid received the order and quickly brought over everything Concubine Shu wanted one by one.
Spicy shredded chicken, pickled pepper chicken feet, spicy bean skin, spicy braised lotus root slices...
Fearing that Shu Fei's bowl of cold skin would not be enough, the maid brought the meat buns over again, but did not forget to put a few fragrant red peppers in them.
When Concubine Shu saw this, she immediately ate with satisfaction, but she also did not forget to greet Qin Yishu, "The emperor also wants to have a taste?"
Seeing Concubine Shu eating happily, Qin Yishu also felt his index finger move. He ordered Roujiamo and red oil cold skin, and followed Concubine Shu to eat those spicy dishes.
But just after taking a bite, Qin Yishu's brows knitted together, and he hurriedly picked up the teacup next to him and poured tea into his mouth, "This is too spicy..."
It was so spicy that his mouth felt like fire.
Qin Yishu really couldn't understand how Concubine Shu could eat such spicy food.
"This is what I like now." Concubine Shu pursed her lips and smiled, and ordered the maid to prepare some normal and light meat buns and cold skin, as well as noodles mixed with scallion oil for Qin Yishu.
"The emperor couldn't get used to the taste, so he ate something else. However, it's a pity that the emperor couldn't enjoy such delicious food."
"Indeed." Qin Yishu nodded, "I really don't have the luxury to enjoy it, but these foods smell very fragrant and make people very appetizing. It can be seen that the cooking skills of the cooks in your small kitchen are getting better and better."
"It's not like the chef in the small kitchen is good at cooking, but this child Yu Jin is filial and remembered that I like spicy food during pregnancy, so she specially made these things and asked Yan Xiu to send them in."
Concubine Shu smiled and said, "Speaking of which, this child Yu Jin really has nothing to say. He remembers such things clearly and is willing to take the trouble to do it."
"The Lord of Pingan County is filial." Qin Yishu nodded.
"Yes." Concubine Shu agreed, "My mother at home is old and has many health problems. Yu Jin often takes care of her. In fact, she is a filial child."
"But as this child Yujin becomes more filial, I feel more and more uneasy."
"Why?" Qin Yishu was puzzled, "Ping'an County Lord is your future niece-in-law. You are an elder, and you should receive such filial piety. You should not be uneasy."
"That's how it should be. It's just a matter between the two of them. Although I'm happy to see it come to fruition, I'm not married yet." Concubine Shu glanced at Qin Yishu thoughtfully.
Qin Yishu immediately understood, "I've been talking around the bush for a long time, but my beloved concubine is actually doing this?"
"Isn't it just for this matter? The emperor personally promised Yan Xiu this matter. Now the time has come. Yan Xiu is a minister and a junior. Naturally, he is embarrassed to urge the emperor. I can only have the shamelessness to come and talk to the emperor.
That’s what I said before.” Concubine Shu smiled.
The corners of Qin Yishu's mouth couldn't help but twitch.
Is there ever a time when He Yanxiu is embarrassed?
Never seen it before!
I guess this bastard was afraid to mention it to him in person, and he made many demands, so he simply asked Concubine Shu to talk to him.
No wonder I heard Youer complaining a few days ago and made a good calculation.
Now all the abacus beads have fallen on the face of him, the king of a country!
"Well, since it's something I promised, I can't break my promise." Qin Yishu smiled, "Minghai, I went to the Hanlin Academy to draft a marriage decree for Minister He and the Lord of Ping'an County, and put it on my desk in the afternoon.
."
"Yes." Minghai agreed with a smile and said, "I'm afraid the Queen Mother will also be very happy with this marriage decree."
The Queen Mother had a close relationship with Mrs. Lu and Mrs. He, and regarded Concubine Shu as her own. He Yanxiu was the younger generation in both families who paid great attention to, especially He Yanxiu's marriage, which attracted much attention from the two old ladies.
of concern.
The two old ladies were happy about this marriage, and the Queen Mother was naturally happy as well.
"But I will probably also be thinking about You'er's marriage." Qin Yishu looked at Concubine Shu, "You'er has also reached the age when it's time to move out. I asked the Ministry of Rites to choose the land, and the Ministry of Works has started to supervise the construction of the mansion.
It’s good that this important matter of marriage should also be put on the agenda.”
"Do you have anyone you like?"
Qin Yishu did not allow the queen to interfere in the marriage of His Highness the Third, and only let Concubine Shu handle it herself.
"I do, but You'er doesn't care. Looking at his appearance, I probably have a plan, but I just don't want to tell you."
Concubine Shu smiled and said, "After I give birth safely, I will ask you carefully when I have time and make a decision as soon as possible."
"Yes." Qin Yishu nodded, "As for marriage, the most important thing is to be happy with each other."
"My concubine means the same thing." Concubine Shu said and stuffed a pickled pepper chicken feet into her mouth.
