Yuan Dai sat at the dining table and looked at the breakfast that was served, a bowl of white rice porridge and a few pickles.
This is just breakfast. Dogs won’t eat it, right?
Qiushi saw Yuan Dai's dissatisfaction and comforted her: "It's just these few days, I'll be patient and get over it."
"No! I can't bear it, not even for a day!"
Yuan Dai took a bite of the white porridge and found it was so bland that she could barely taste it.
When she thought that she would have to live like this for another week, Yuan Dai felt hopeless.
Yuan Dai clenched her fists. One day she would get back the pain this dog emperor inflicted on her! Oh, she was so angry!
correct!
Yuan Dai suddenly thought of something, and an idea came to her mind. She turned to look at Qiushi.
"By the way Qiushi, why hasn't Concubine Zhao's lotus seed soup been delivered today?"
"Well... I don't know, this slave. It must have been delayed by something on the way."
Say Cao Cao and Cao Cao will be here.
As soon as the two of them finished speaking, a young eunuch announced that Concubine Zhao had arrived. Yuan Dai's eyes lit up and she said impatiently: "Quick, quick, quick, let my good sister come in."
As soon as Zhao Li came in, she inexplicably felt that today's atmosphere was a little different from before, but she couldn't tell what the specifics were. She frowned and felt a little wary.
Then she saw Yuan Dai running towards her excitedly, holding her hand affectionately, "Good sister, you are finally here. Sister, I have been waiting for you for a long time."
Zhao Li:?
"Sister, don't blame me. The lotus seed soup made by you is so delicious. I can't wait to drink it every day."
Zhao Li smiled and said, "As long as sister likes it."
Yuan Dai nodded, "I like it."
"But - drinking lotus seed soup every day would be too monotonous."
Zhao Li's expression froze, "Sister, you are..."
"Oh, if there are a few more dishes, such as braised pork, big chicken drumsticks, or if it doesn't work, you can have two desserts. I won't choose."
Zhao Li gritted her teeth. In her eyes, Yuan Dai was deliberately looking for an opportunity to humiliate her. She, a queen, had nothing to eat, but she was asked to do it! Treating her like a cook!
She was resentful in her heart, but when she thought about the people waiting for her outside the door, she changed her mind and bowed to Yuan Dai softly, "Since the queen has given the order, it is natural for me to refuse."
As soon as she heard Zhao Li agreed, Yuan Dai immediately beamed, "Sister, you are such a good person!"
Her food will be secured from now on!
"In that case, my sister will leave first."
"Go slowly, remember to come tomorrow, don't forget."
Zhao Li:..........
As soon as Zhao Li went out, she saw Feng Jingyao waiting for her at the door.
The man was wearing light blue clothes and had a tall and straight figure. The maids walking next to him all cast shy glances at him.
The sun was so bright today that it would burn you if you stood outside for a while, but Feng Jingyao was waiting where he was and didn't seem to be impatient at all.
Zhao Li knew that Feng Jingyao was good to her and maybe liked her, but it was more because he regarded her as his savior.
It happened a year ago. She accidentally picked up a jade pendant in the harem and wanted to throw it away. Who would have thought that she happened to meet Feng Jingyao. Feng Jingyao became extremely excited when he saw the jade pendant in her hand.
Come and ask her where the jade pendant came from.
Zhao Li probably guessed that this jade pendant was not simple, so she casually said that it was left to her by her mother.
As expected, Feng Jingyao became even more excited, saying that she had saved his life somewhere, and the person who saved his life was not her. How could Zhao Li remember the plot? She only said that she seemed to have had a baby before.
After a serious illness, he lost his memory after recovering from the illness.
Feng Jingyao felt even more guilty after hearing this.
From then on, whenever he entered the palace, he would find an opportunity to see her, and he would bring her many benefits.
Zhao Li was enjoying it quietly but did not express her opinion.
Feng Jingyao is a good choice, but the person she really wants to get——
It's Xiao Ling.
Zhao Li suppressed the darkness in her eyes, put on a sweet smile, and walked towards him.
"Have you been waiting for a long time?"
"No, I just waited for a while." Feng Jingyao's tone was gentle. If you look carefully, you can see that he is still a bit nervous in front of the person he likes.
"But Brother Huang is too. I'm afraid he was not poisoned by Yuan Dai. It's obviously her fault that you asked your concubine to bring her meals morning and evening."
"It's okay. It's natural for the emperor to pamper his empress." Even though she said this, Zhao Li deliberately and unintentionally showed her sadness.
Her tone was a little lonely, "The queen seems to like the food made by me. Today, I want my concubine to make more things for her in the future."
"What?!" After Zhao Li finished speaking, Feng Jingyao's angry voice rang out, "You're not her maid, why are you making food for her?!"
"As long as your Majesty likes it, I don't have anything to do anyway."
Feng Jingyao was so angry, "You are just too kind, that's why you are always bullied by her!"
"Wait for me to find justice for you!"
With that said, Feng Jingyao angrily went to Yuan Dai's bedroom.
Zhao Li pulled him away, tears welling up in her eyes, "Don't go, don't let me have a conflict with the queen sister."
When Feng Jingyao saw that Zhao Li was crying, he concluded that Yuan Dai had bullied her inside just now, "It's okay, I don't deal with her to begin with. You go back and rest first, and just leave it to me to deal with it."
After that, he strode towards the room, and no one in the palace could stop him.
Yuan Dai was happily tasting the lotus seed soup sent by Zhao Li. The lotus seed soup was refreshing and delicious, much better than the white porridge and pickles.
While I was eating, I heard a burst of shouting coming from outside.
She put down the spoon, looked up, and saw Feng Jingyao rushing in angrily.
Feng Jingyao came up and asked, "Why did you let Concubine Zhao make something for you?"
Yuan Dai glanced at him, thinking that Zhao Li had agreed so readily just now, she knew something about it.
She did not answer Feng Jingyao's question, but first said: "Now the prince is so powerful that he no longer needs to bow when he sees me as the queen."
Feng Jingyao looked ugly. No matter how unwilling he was, the hierarchy in the palace was strict, and he had to kneel down and salute Yuan Dai when he saw her.
Feng Jingyao half-knelt down and said, "I would like to send my regards to the Queen."
Yuan Dai still knelt with him for a few minutes, while she quietly drank the bowl of lotus seed soup in her hand, and then said calmly: "Get back on your feet."
"My lord, you are a bit young after all. Now that you are in my palace, I am kind-hearted, so I won't hold you accountable any more. If it were to be placed on other occasions, you would have to be punished."
"Why don't you thank me quickly."
Feng Jingyao's expression was extremely ugly. It was clear that Yuan Dai was not so sharp-tongued and sharp-tongued last time he saw her, so he reluctantly said: "Thank you, Queen."
"Yes." Yuan Dai smiled happily, "That's right."
Because the original owner liked the emperor, he was more accommodating to the younger brother Xiao Ling liked, which was why he was always bullied by Feng Jingyao before.
But things were different now. She wished that Xiao Ling hated her, so naturally she didn't care what Feng Jing Yao thought of her.
