Chapter 45 The emperor comes and the queen proposes

Speaking of which, although Gongfu temporarily gave the Murong family a problem, the materials in the royal palace were quite well prepared because of the wedding banquet. Moreover, the most important thing is the arrangement of Xianglin's sister-in-law.

Although Xianglin's sister-in-law has disappeared for so many years, she is only responsible for the food in Murong Wan's yard. However, many years ago, she was the steward of the kitchen of Murong Wangfu. She not only managed the whole large kitchen, but also heard her transfer of everything in the small kitchen in each yard.

That's why I have to say that Xianglin's sister-in-law has a certain majesty in the eyes of the people of the Murong Palace. However, after the first princess's life, Xianglin's sister-in-law stopped talking. Later, everyone gradually understood her changes. They usually didn't seem to greet her, but they were quite awe and respected in their hearts.

And among them, of course, the second stewmer in charge of the kitchen, Aunt Zhang. It is said to be the second stewmer, but in fact, since Xianglin's sister-in-law left, there has been no serious master in this big kitchen, so everything is in charge of this Aunt Zhang. For this reason, Aunt Zhang is particularly grateful and respectful to Xianglin.

After Mother Rong and Aunt Su came out of the partial hospital, they first sent someone to inform Aunt Zhang. At this time, Aunt Zhang led the kitchen and the chef specially invited from the outside restaurant to stand in three rows in the regular yard. Seeing Xianglin's sister-in-law waiting to enter the courtyard door with a group of people, Aunt Zhang's round face opened with a smile, and her little eyes narrowed into a line. She came forward and took Xianglin's hand excitedly: "Sister-in-law, after so many years, I finally have a chance to work with my sister-in-law again."

As he spoke, his fat lips curled, and tears flashed in his eyes. Aunt Zhang felt a little rude again and quickly wiped her eyes. She just nodded and said with a smile, "That's good, that's good!"

Xianglin's sister-in-law nodded silently and looked around the place where she had worked. Her heart was also full of feelings, and it gushed out in an instant.

For so many years, she voluntarily gave up her position as a big kitchen stewmer, just because of the dying instructions of the former princess, she only took care of Murong Wan. Today, if it hadn't been for Murong Wan's relationship, she wouldn't have been willing to come back here.

However, time is running out, and she has no leisure time to remember and sigh here.

Immediately became vigorous and popular. First, I understood what dishes the people sent by Gong Fu were good at, and then quickly formulated the menu for the luncheon. The prepared cold dishes have not been changed much, but they need to be freshly cooked hot dishes and snacks, so they changed according to Gong Fu's instructions. Ask Aunt Zhang to allocate ingredients and arrange helpers according to the needs of various chefs.

Zhang Sanfeng is good at Jiangnan cuisine, which happens to be good at Xianglin and Aunt Zhang, so the three of them formed a small team, equipped with three vegetable-cutting maids, two burning women, and two other two sharp little men.

In just half an hour, the big kitchen was hot and orderly.

It is also because Xianglin's sister-in-law's familiar scheduling, suddenly there are so many more people, which not only does not make people feel messy, but also feels like a tiger with wings. It's only an hour, and the banquet is almost ready.

Those who looked down on Xianglin's sister-in-law before couldn't help admiring Xianglin's wife.

In the morning, the imperial car of King Wu of Zhou appeared at the gate of Heyi City under the escort of a large group of elite guards, followed by the queen's phoenix. After that, it was the drivers of the ministers of the imperial capital who came to watch the ceremony. At this time, tens of thousands of people had already gathered at the gate of Heyi City. As soon as they saw the emperor's driving, they knelt on the ground and shouted in unison, "Hang live my emperor!"

The shouting is shocking, and the scene is particularly spectacular!

Zhou Xiong, the king of Zhou Wu, was very satisfied and frequently lifted the curtain of the sedan chair. From time to time, he waved to the people on both sides of the street, which made many people cry with excitement.

Entering the gate, Heyi's best soldiers stopped the people on both sides of the street, on the wide bluestone street. Murong Changtian, Chen Jialuo led Murong Qing and Chen Kang, knelt in the middle of the street and shouted in unison: "Weichen, wait, welcome the Holy Lord! Welcome to the Queen!"

Then the people on both sides of the street also echoed in unison.

King Wu's Luan stopped, dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe, Zhou Xiong, wearing an imperial crown, came out of the car and stood on the car with his head held high. Zhou Xiong was born in his fifties, just like his name. He is tall and majestic, with a wide forehead, thick eyebrows, and a pair of bright eyes, but when looking at people, he always makes people feel a sense of high coldness. The lips are thick and rosy, and the cheeks are slightly round. Because they are properly maintained, the skin is tight and the wrinkles are not visible.

At this time, he put his hand on his belt, his eyes narrowed slightly, and looked down at the four people on the street. The corners of his lips were slightly raised, and then he said like a bell: "You are flat!"

"Thank you, Emperor!" Murong Changtian and others got up and retreated to one side. Zhou Xiong returned to the car. The team slowly moved forward and went straight to Murong's palace!

At this time, Murong Changtian told Murong Qing beside him. Murong Qing and Chen Kang took a step ahead and returned to Murong's palace to prepare for the preparations.

Murong Changtian and Chen Jialuo walked on both sides of the dragon car of King Wu of Zhou.

Along the way, many people worshipped their emperor. The speed of the car was slow, and it took half an hour to get to the gate of Murong's mansion.

Murong Changtian personally got Zhou Xiong out of the car.

Zhou Xiong stood at the door of Murong's mansion, sighed softly and said in a strong voice, "Brother Changtian's mansion, I haven't been here for years!"

Murong Changtian hurriedly said, "The emperor is worried about national affairs all day long and has worked hard!"

At this time, the queen in a big red-painted golden phoenix robe was held by two gorgeous and shiny women. She stepped forward and sighed, "Your Majesty is now stained with pearls and Luoer, so he has the opportunity to get together with a few old friends!" With that, he inadvertently glanced at Murong Changtian.

Queen Zhou, about 40 years old, can't be said to be beautiful in appearance, and she is not tall, but her body is very plump, round, her snow-white skin is just dyed with a healthy blush by rouge, her eyebrows are decorated like two crescent moons, her eyes are bent, and she always sparkles a little shrew in her eyes when she speaks. Lightly, the bridge of the nose is high and the lips are slightly thick, dyed red with rouge. It seems to be quite a couple with Zhou Xiong.

Murong Changtian and Chen Jialuo hurriedly kowtowed: "Weichen greeting the queen, the queen is thousands of years old!"

"The two princes are both brothers of the emperor's close relatives. How can they be such a big gift?" The queen said in horror, but there was still a high indifference in her eyes.

"I'm so scared!"

"The queen's words are true. You and I have a deep relationship and are like our brothers. We must make this big gift." Zhou Xiong affectionately took Murong Changtian with one hand, pulled Chen Jialuo with the other hand, and walked to the door of the house.

Murong Qing and Chen Kang have already ordered people to go from the gate of the palace, and all roads have been covered with red carpets. At this time, there were soldiers standing on both sides of the red carpet, and the idle people had also dispersed.

Zhou Xiong and the three entered the door. Murong Qing and Chen Kang stood on both sides and knelt down to salute.

"Qing'er and Kang'er don't have to be polite. Hurry up, flat!" Zhou Xiong stretched out his hand and held it in the air, narrowed his eyes and said kindly.

"My minister, thank you for your kindness!" Murong Qing and Chen Kanglang said, but did not get up immediately, but bowed to the queen who followed Zhou Xiong: "Weichen respectfully welcome the queen!"

The queen usually lives in a deep palace and rarely sees Murong Qing and Chen Kang. At this time, she likes it very much. She let go of the mother-in-law's hand, steps forward, first stood up Murong Qing on the left, and waved to Chen Kang and said, "Kang'er, come here, let me take a good look at you two!"

Chen Kang got up and approached.

"Look, what a handsome young man! I don't know which girl in the world has this blessing to be your wife!" The queen said and said to Zhou Xiong, "Your Majesty, I see that Qing'er and Kang'er have reached the age of marriage. You can't favor each other. Coincidentally, with today's presence of all the ministers in the court, it's better to be happy and give them a happy one."

The queen said, her eyebrows bent, which made people feel very amiable.

"The Queen's proposal is good! If Qinger and Kang'er can also achieve beautiful things today, it will be regarded as our grand event this year!" Zhou Xiong laughed when he heard the words.

As soon as Zhou Xiong finished speaking, the queen then said, "Your Majesty, Ping'er is 16 years old this year. My concubine and I happened to be a pair of beautiful people with Kang'er!"
