Chapter 382 The Empress Dowager is in Trouble 3
(*Modified*)
"Little Bluebird, do you want some snacks again?"
Perhaps the little bluebird understood Consort An's invitation, for it nimbly darted through the window into the palace and perched on the plate of pastries, chirping as it began to eat.
They have absolutely no idea what politeness is.
See this scene.
Miaoping and Xiangyun retreated to a place where they could not hear their master's murmurs.
Within the deep walls of this palace, everyone has secrets they don't want others to hear.
Consort An indeed propped her head up and started chattering to Little Blue Sparrow.
From her disappointing father, brothers, and nephews in her own family, to the Empress Dowager who ruined her health, to the meals of the concubines during the late emperor's reign, and the current Consort Hua's unrestrained behavior in the harem...
That's so enviable!
If there was anyone successful in her maternal family, she would go to the palace to pray to the gods and burn incense, becoming their lackey.
That's it.
Let's just say it's her family's consideration for her difficult life in the palace.
People are talking, and birds are busy.
The little blue sparrow wiggled its little bottom, picked up the snacks it hadn't finished eating, and threw them out the window to call its friends.
Consort An's attention was also diverted.
They then began to observe the other birds that had come in groups vying for food.
The little bluebird is like a hardworking cafeteria worker.
We need to call the kittens to come and feed them, disinfect and sterilize them, and loudly remind them not to poop or lose feathers nearby.
"Choo Choo Choo"
(Be civilized, okay? Don't fight while queuing to eat. Anyone who fights won't be allowed to come back next time... Spread your wings a little wider, and always remember to radiate your charm.)
The bird responded after taking the first bite.
"Chirp chirp chirp chirp"
(Yes, everyone should be like me: elegant, refined, and charming.)
Little Bluebird Tongzi lost his voice.
No, what are you doing here, a magpie that just chirps around?
"chirp"
(Hey, get out of here, don't drool over my little brother.)
The magpie knew it was no match for the enemy.
It could only flap its big wings and slip away.
Consort An felt like she was watching a farce; how could Little Blue Sparrow be so amazing?
Xiangyun winked at Miaoping.
The message to Miaoping is, "Your Majesty's appetite is going to be much better today. You should bring back more staple foods."
As for Xiangyun himself.
Let's have the palace maids clean up the places where birds have gathered.
This person is someone who always has something to worry about.
It’s getting late.
Little Bluebird bid farewell to Consort An and flew away from Ning Shou Palace with her little brother, intending to go play in Fat Orange's pond.
Consort An also went to bathe and change clothes with the help of palace servants.
Xiao Linzi, a fellow villager of Aunt Yi, is here.
They didn't have any water shortages in their side hall; they were always ahead of the masters in the main hall's communal sleeping area.
Amidst the rising mist.
The palace maid picked out the drooping petals and added quite a few more to the bathtub.
The fragrance wafted again.
Consort An was curious.
I asked around and found out that it was picked by one of the palace maids in an empty room. I don't know which tree they had plucked bare.
......
That's not the case.
Miaoping, Xiaoshu, and Xiaoyi didn't think at all that the ownership of the things in the palace belonged to the middle-aged fat orange.
They did not empty the private rooms of Fatty Orange and the others.
That's because the three of them are kind.
It wasn't because of the imperial authority that Fatty Orange and the others talked about.
Branches from the banyan tree fluttered about, adding to the food boxes in Miaoping and the little palace maid's hands. Fatty Orange picked out a little of her food, Consort Hua took a little, and so did the Empress and Empress Dowager De...
Zhen Xiaozhu's life is just ordinary, so let's move on.
Shen Meizhuang's is alright, only slightly better than Zhen Xiaozhu's. Pass.
The food at Anli was alright; we were all family, so it was fine.
Mongolian concubines are welcome.
The Empress of Ning Shou Palace, who had been out killing time today, would return to the palace early.
With a food box in her left hand and a little palace maid in her right, Miaoping quickened her pace and walked back very fast.
Oh yes.
They also had to use their mental energy to travel around, lest they stumble upon any scene of concubines fighting each other.
The communal cucumbers are gone.
These retired ladies seem to have let themselves go, unable to avenge their grudges on the spot; no wonder they live such long lives...
Consort An still needs to learn something.
I can't stay cooped up in the side hall all the time.
What reason could you give?
Miaoping hasn't decided yet.
Let's serve the Empress some rice first.
One plate of fresh vegetables after another was served.
Consort An devoured three red bean paste buns just from the aroma.
Braised abalone with pearls, is this what Consort Hua prepared for Fatty Orange? It smells so good.
There are also Yangzhou pickles, crucian carp and tofu soup, roasted mutton...
Consort An felt she could live like this for another hundred years.
Another day of envying Aunt Yi's extensive network and unconventional ways.
With the pressure of a "colleague" returning to the palace looming, Consort An ate her meal quite quickly, as did Xiangyun.
As the two of them were being helped by palace maids to aid their digestion.
They happened to run into the concubines who were praising a certain imperial concubine all day long, who were sleeping in the main hall.
Unlike his hungry colleagues in the dormitory.
Consort An was extremely relieved that she had improved her eating speed.
Hahaha, it's been so many days since I've been freeloaded on meals, tea, and snacks!
Before Miaoping could make a move.
The banyan sapling controlled the growth of the plants in Ning Shou Palace, easily absorbing the aroma of food from the side hall.
......
It was mealtime.
Suiyuxuan's young mistress scooped up soup with a ladle, doing so half-heartedly.
They don't seem to have much of an appetite.
In reality, he ate three bowls of noodles.
After glancing at the empty plates, Aunt Yi closed her eyes helplessly.
This child is quite different from her previous life; she's much like Consort An, eating with gusto as if they were half-sisters.
"You can't be so candid in front of the Emperor..."
After eating, my stomach felt like I was carrying a watermelon; I couldn't even stand up and move around.
An Li acted like a spoiled little girl.
I guess she's treating Aunt Yi like her mother, because she started to whine and complain a few times, followed by a few loud burps.
This taste.
I wonder if that old chubby orange can handle it.
The scene of tender affection turned into vomiting together while embracing; it's quite bizarre to even think about.
"You need to be even more careful around your best friend... otherwise people will look down on you..."
The palace maid guarding the gate also ate her fill.
She stood at the doorway, nodding her head repeatedly, feeling that Aunt Yi's voice coming from inside the room was quite hypnotic, even though it was intermittent.
With Aunt Yi's ability to manipulate events...
Baojuan and Baoque never came in this lifetime.
The head eunuch of Suiyuxuan, who loved to switch jobs, was also kicked to some unknown palace.
An Li only needed to go into seclusion to study and then easily defeated the big fat orange.
Fortunately, she was willing herself.
Aunt Yi did not take the initiative to select guards to help the young master, but instead chose a few handsome young eunuchs to run errands.
what.
There's a weirdo here.
This is for Cui Jin of Yimei Garden.
Hopefully, these two will have a showdown in Fat Orange's harem someday.
Zhen Xi was unaware that she had inexplicably lost her strongest support. When she saw the floating corpse, she pretended to be sick but unexpectedly became really sick.
Wanbi didn't care about her elder sister's worries.
He sits by the bed all day long.
He described how much favored Consort Shen was to him.
It was a subtle hint that her elder sister should try to recover soon so that Lady Shen could introduce her to someone.
Ugh.
Is my elder sister really capable?
