When he came out of the noodle shop, Wen Mingtang's expression was obviously relaxed, but Liang Hongjin was a little puzzled.
Wen Mingtang did not shy away from Liang Hongjin when he asked Mrs. Yu and his wife, so Liang Hongjin knew exactly what he asked and what answer he got.
But just because she knew it well, she was even more puzzled by the reason why her expression changed so quickly: What is the relationship between right and wrong between the princess and noble daughters, right and wrong?
Wen Mingtang did not explain, but turned around and gave Liang Hongjin the money he got from Ji Caimai for the sale of Zhao Ji Restaurant, and told Liang Hongjin to hand over the money to Zhao Sishan.
Liang Hongjin didn't take it, but just waved her hand and said, "Isn't it okay to hand it over to Sishan Zhao when you pick it up yourself in a few days?"
Wen Mingtang shook his head and said: "In the past few days, some nobles may want to look for me. I'm worried that I won't be able to pick her up on the day she leaves the palace."
Is there someone else looking for her? Liang Hongjin was taken aback when she heard that, and immediately became nervous: "Could it be that someone who looks like Du Lingmou is coming to trouble you?"
Wen Mingtang looked at the nervous Liang Hongjin, but smiled, his eyes flickered slightly, and said, "It's not quite the same as Du Lingmou."
It's just who will be looking for her, but Wen Mingtang didn't say.
Originally, Liang Hongjin was skeptical of Wen Mingtang's words, but when she came to look for Wen Mingtang at noon the next day, she saw the faces of Tang Yuan and A Bing who were still in a daze, and their expressions as if falling into a dream, so she knew Wen Mingtang. What he said was true, there was indeed a noble person who came to look for Wen Mingtang, and this noble person was none other than the current empress in the palace.
"Early in the morning, the sedan chair and the people in the palace came, and they brought the imperial edict of the empress," Tang Yuan said, with a tone of excitement. What's the matter, the empress saw and tasted it, and she quite liked it, so she called Master Wen into the palace, and wanted to ask Master Wen to teach the people in the empress's small kitchen how to make some snacks!"
A Bing on the side also said excitedly: "I said that Master Wen's cooking skills are so good. If it wasn't for the trouble of this family background, he might be able to get a position as a chef!"
"Don't talk about Si Shan, Shang Shan may not be able to fight for it!" Although Liang Hongjin agreed with the two of them, he rolled his eyes angrily and said, "Not only Shang Shan, but also in the late emperor's harem. Maybe we can still compete for the seat!"
If the first sentence said that it made Tangyuan and A Bing, they were very happy, but the latter sentence was poured over their heads like a basin of cold water, completely pouring them out.
The two of them were only interested in being happy, and almost forgot that when Master Wen was in the palace all these years, the owner of the imperial city was the muddle-headed late emperor. It might be just a joke if Liang Nu said this on the new emperor, but on the late emperor It can really come true.
But the late emperor's harem... When the two of them thought of this, they shivered, thinking that although Master Wen wore a thick veil every day, his appearance was neat, and according to the rules of serving meals, all his hair had to be tied up. Get up, leaving only a face, that is really dangerous.
Looking at the two people who were relieved and happy again, Liang Hongjin raised his forehead and gave birth to the emotion that Zhao Sishan and Wen Mingtang often have when facing her: these two silly children! If it wasn't for Xiao Mingtang's reminder yesterday, she would have been happy too. She really thought it was the empress who had taken a fancy to her skills, but right now... Maybe her skills are not fake, and calling her into the palace might be something else.
Wen Mingtang sighed helplessly while sitting and shaking in the sedan chair: The Empress specially asked someone to bring a soft sedan over, in order to highlight the word "please", which meant to look up to and support.
But...Wen Mingtang touched his stomach, opened the curtain on the car wall with his fingers, looked at the shaking street scene outside the curtain, and touched his stomach: Fortunately, there is little food in the morning, otherwise he will be full of madness by this "noble treatment" It is impossible to spit out the food.
After laughing at himself for a while, he was really not a nobleman in his bones, and after not getting used to this kind of treatment, he went to the palace gate.
Even the guests invited by the empress have to get out of the sedan chair and walk into the palace with others.
Wen Mingtang got off the sedan chair, and the palace companions came to the Tongming Gate, and then the familiar ones showed their cards, searched their bodies and entered the palace together, looking at the familiar Tongming Gate in front of them, Wen Mingtang never expected that after a year, he would Will step into this palace gate again in this way.
Passing through the Tongming Gate, there are two roads on the left and right. Although the plants and trees planted in the palace wall and the flower garden beside the wall are similar, but if you look closely, the one on the left is obviously much finer than the one on the right.
Yeting was on the right, Wen Mingtang glanced in the direction of the right, and followed the palace man to the left.
Your Majesty's harem is only the empress's empress, so the empress's dormitory is naturally not sloppy, but...Wen Mingtang thought of the beauties in the harem of the late emperor, the palaces decorated with gold and jade by Jieyu, and looked at the palaces in front of him. These flowers and plants are not expensive, but I really feel that the empress's expenses can be regarded as frugal.
After following the palace people into the palace, it was a matter of meeting etiquette. The empress in front of her was indeed as beautiful and dignified as the rumors said. Wen Mingtang sighed with emotion, and then knelt down on his front feet, and the phrase "free ceremony" came over on his back feet .
She thanked her and stood up, remembering what the maidservants whispered in private when she was in Yeting Court. It would be useless to see if the master in the palace spoke well or not. Those who speak nicely on the surface, have a kind face and kind eyes, but there are many people who are ruthless behind the scenes. See if the master is really easy to talk, the details can best see the nature. The speed of that "free manner" is the easiest to recognize.
According to this rule, the queen empress is quite able to match this point. After the "exemption", the empress empress gave her a seat.
Wen Mingtang couldn't help but be moved by the treatment today. Thinking back to how many years she had been in the palace, it was the first time she had received such "courteous treatment" from the master of the palace.
Of course, no matter how easy it is to talk, if the beautiful and dignified woman in front of me can secure the position of queen, it is impossible to summon her into the palace just to ask her to make a few snacks. Come out of things.
Sure enough, after being seated, the empress said: "On New Year's Eve, Your Majesty brought some dim sum that I had never seen before, and I tasted it with me. I liked the dim sum not only in appearance, but also in taste. Especially, it suits my taste. After asking Your Majesty, I found out that it was taken from Lin Shaoqing of Dali Temple, and you are the one who made this dessert, Master Wen!" At this point, the empress handed over a cup of tea with a smile .
The Empress of the Central Palace personally handed the tea... Wen Mingtang was startled, and hurriedly took it with both hands. The moment she took it, the Empress Empress said again: "It's unbelievable that Wen Xuance has such a beautiful daughter!"
