Zhang Cheng would ask An Cun about the situation of the Chuxiu Palace when he placed the value every night. He didn't stop to ask Wang Rong and the others about it, since there would be at least fifty people left in the Imperial Consort Candidate, and there might be others who were lucky enough to be there, so he had to try to form a good relationship with them.
”Young Eunuch Feng came to Chuxiu Palace today.” In the end, the two Eunuch Feng and Feng Bao were the two Eunuch Feng and the Young Eunuch Feng respectively.
”Guess he's coming today.” Zhang Cheng moaned. Last night, you showed off your skills and stared at His Majesty's face. Today, we're not going to visit the Imperial Consort Candidate and act good. ”
Yes, Eunuch Feng said that His Majesty had already seen the portraits of the Imperial Consort Candidate, and praised the beauty of many of the Imperial Consort Candidate s. ”He even said that His Majesty said Lady Wang was exceptionally ugly.”
”What?” ”Did that kid even say that?” Zhang Cheng was shocked. Was the girl there? How do you feel about that? ”
”When young lady moves to the back hall, except for the morning lessons, she rarely goes to the front hall. When Young Eunuch Feng goes, young lady did not go to the front hall to join in the fun. However, these kinds of words are naturally brought to her ears by someone else. ” I took a peek at it. It seems like this young lady doesn't care, but the Imperial Consort Candidate in the front hall is really mean with her words. Even I feel uncomfortable listening to him, not to mention this young lady. ”
”Feng Shang brat died.” Zhang Cheng said, ”Alright, don't tell anyone about this first, I'll go greet the Shang Jiu Si. These few days, I have been giving young lady's dessert a little more care, so you can safely deliver it to her table.”
”Alright.” ”But Brother Zhang, did His Majesty really say that?”
”Your Majesty, you're talking about the painter's painting. Don't you know what the painter's lady looks like?” Zhang Cheng shook his head and said.
”Although this lady is not the prettiest, she must have the best heart.” ”By the way.” A lady will definitely have good fortune. ”
Xi Tao brought the food up. Originally, they were all quietly eating at their respective tables, but the Imperial Consort Candidate in the other room suddenly came over and said, ”Big sister Wang, why does your food look different from ours?”
”Is it different?” She liked meat, and didn't like green leafy vegetables. There were some things that didn't need to be said, Xi Tao would set up a dining tray for her every day, but after a few days he had figured out her eating habits, and after that, their meals became more and more suitable, ”Come over here if you want to eat.”
”Sure.” The Imperial Consort Candidate said. Yesterday, when her father-in-law from Qianqing Palace told him the news, the people from the front hall were all in a frenzy. Even though there were two that were praised as beautiful in the back hall, only Wang Rong and the one that was called ugly were special.
Imperial Consort Candidate's heart ached at the sight of the praised beauty, but she was not convinced. It must be because of the money they gave to the painter, and when His Majesty sees the real person, who in the entire palace would not be beautiful? However, the only people who were said to be ugly in the rear hall, the Imperial Consort Candidate s who were the same as them, were all a little angry and embarrassed.
Humans were the creatures that gathered the most. After a few days, within the Chuxiu Palace, the front and back halls, main hall and secondary hall, as well as the partitions and partitions, were already clearly defined factions. The front hall was naturally harsh on Wang Rong and her fellow disciples, but the people from the back hall were incapable of such actions, especially the Imperial Consort Candidate who lived with Wang Rong in the main hall.
Wang Rong was easy to get along with, and she was also calm. Unknowingly, everyone saw her as their pillar, but now that she had been humiliated, the people in the Back Palace Hall didn't say a word about her, as if they had never heard of such a thing.
It was funny, but at the same time, she felt warm inside. After all, her good sister would go to the back of the palace once a day, and every time, she would say with teary eyes, ”I really feel wronged on behalf of my sister if they say that to you.” Then, her good palace maid would tell her the truth about the harsh words in the front hall.
And these strangers who had known her for only a few days, and were even competitors, were willing to protect her. She understood this kindness in her heart.
All of the Imperial Consort Candidate's meals were placed together next to each other, so they could truly see the difference between Wang Rong and the other Imperial Consort Candidate's meals. Wang Rong and the five dishes had three solid and hard vegetables, and the water on the ground had all the delicacies of a mountain and sea. Other people's meals, aside from a soup, had a little meat in three Green Leaf Vegetables, which was just a hard dish.
”Didn't you ask me last time why I didn't give the painter the lotus pouches?” Wang Rong was also surprised at the difference in diet. She did not look at the other people's table hobbies, although every meal was satisfying, and thinking that there were five different dishes, Xi Tao just spent a little effort and silver to choose between them. From the looks of it, it was not something that Xi Tao could do with just her mind and money.
However, now was not the time to think about this. Wang Rong gently smiled and said, ”Last time, didn't you ask me why I didn't give the money to the painter? Now I can tell you the reason, because all my money was given to the Shang Cuisine Division.”
”Elder sister is too willful.” ”If I had given my purse to the painter, my sister wouldn't have.”
Yang Jingru glared at her, picked up a fried chicken with sesame oil and placed it into her mouth to chew. Then she laughed and said, ”This is the standard of the palace's meals. To be honest, this daily meal for me is not much better than my mother's culinary skills. Thinking about how I have to eat this kind of meal in the future, it's really a long sigh and it's boring. ”
Liu Jing also tasted the chopsticks before saying, ”I say that my sister's purse is not a loss at all, since she can eat these delicious foods everyday, what else is there to keep in mind. That painter drew so many pictures, and only a few were praised as pretty. The painter drew it a little weirdly. When the emperor saw this, she was a little doubtful. Was she worried too? Or was she alone? When we see her in the future, she was actually a beauty. ”Now that you think about it this way, you're still taking advantage of me.”
Wang Rong smiled happily. ”Since you guys are so good at talking, it looks like you won't have a choice if I don't call you over for food in the future.”
