Rebirth: Emperor, Long Time No See - C226

“Empress, the pearls from before truly did not know that those pastries were very tasty and that the taste was very ordinary. If it wasn’t for the fact that I was hungry at night and the Empress kept saying that it was very tasty, I definitely wouldn’t have touched it. But when the Empress fell asleep, I was not yet sleepy, so I sat at the table, bored, and ate the pastries, but Pearl, for some reason, ate them up so quickly.

Pearl was the last one to taste the dessert, and only then did Pearl realize how delicious it was! ” After Pearl finished speaking, her face revealed a look of innocence. She then looked at Yi Fei, who was petrified, with an embarrassed expression.

“That’s fine too. Even though she said it wasn’t delicious, she could still eat that much! “After eating, only then did I regret it. Only then did I realize that these plates are all delicious snacks!” After Yi Fei heard Pearl’s words, she felt very speechless and silently thought in her heart.

“Forget about the pearls, they are finished after eating.” Anyway, I’m used to your appetite, but now that I’m awake in the middle of the night, I feel really hungry. pearl, do you have anything good to worry about? ” Yi Fei thought about it and decided not to continue this issue. Thus, she changed the topic.

“Empress, what should we do?” It was already the latter half of the night, and many people were already asleep. Empress, don’t worry. Let the pearl think about it. ” After Pearl finished speaking, her face revealed a look of deep thought. Pearl didn’t know what to do, she was really regretting it now, why did she eat so fast then? If she had left a few pieces of the pastries, she would have been able to solve the problem now.

Yi Fei looked at Pearl who was deep in thought. She didn’t say anything, but sat down at the side, quietly waiting for the pearl’s peerless method.

“Esteemed Empress, Pearl doesn’t have any particularly good methods right now. “Your Highness, Pearl will go to the kitchen and boil some soup for you!” After Pearl finished speaking, she looked at Yi Fei with a cautious gaze, as if she was afraid that Yi Fei wouldn’t agree.

“Haha!” Alright, pearl, you’ve been here with me for so long. We’ve eaten a lot together, but I haven’t eaten a single one of the things you’ve cooked. Pearl, go ahead. Today, I’ll have a good taste. How’s Pearl’s craftsmanship? ” Yi Fei was very surprised when she heard Pearl’s words. Actually, she didn’t have much hope for Pearl’s culinary skills. Seeing Pearl’s greedy look, ordinary people wouldn’t think Pearl’s culinary skills were that good!

After Pearl heard what Yi Fei said, she tidied up the empty plate beside her and left Yi Fei’s room. Yi Fei was bored and laid back on her bed, quietly waiting for the pearl to be boiled.

Pearl did not make Yi Fei wait for long. Soon, Yi Fei heard Pearl calling her name from outside. After Yi Fei heard Pearl call her name, she got off the bed and walked outside.

Yi Fei smelled a fragrance the moment she left the room. This fragrance was different even when Yi Fei was in peace. This fragrance was the fragrance of plants and vegetation.

“Empress, come here and drink! When I went into the kitchen, I didn’t find any good ingredients, so I cooked this little vegetable soup. Esteemed Empress, it’s late at night. Let’s have a drink! “Tomorrow, eat more of what you want to eat.” Pearl said as she placed a bowl of emerald colored soup from the pot she had brought back in front of Yi Fei.

“Pearl, it smells so good! What material did you use to make it!? ” Yi Fei curiously asked the pearl. Yi Fei didn’t expect the pearl to be not only good at cooking, but also a big surprise for her. Although Yi Fei hadn’t started to drink the soup yet, she was completely moved by the bowl of soup in front of her.

“Empress, this is actually just a very common folk soup. When Pearl was very young, she often drank this soup.” Perhaps it’s because the Empress has never tasted it before, so she feels especially fresh and fragrant. ” Pearl was also very happy to see Yi Fei’s expression. She felt that she was very pretty today, showing off her skills in front of Yi Fei.

“Hmm, let me try it.” Yi Fei used the spoon to drink the bowl of soup in front of her.

“Wah!” Delicious! pearl, quickly tell me, what is so special about this, why is it so sweet? ” Yi Fei felt that Pearl must have hidden something from her. This should be a common vegetable soup, but why was it so sweet and refreshing? Yi Fei felt that it was very strange.

“Empress, Pearl followed the Eastern Queen before. Pearl guessed that the Empress definitely knew about this matter!” Pearl saw that Yi Fei kept asking and had no choice but to start talking.

“Mm, I know about this. Otherwise, Imperial Concubine Chen wouldn’t have tortured you to the verge of death like that. ” Yi Fei nodded. She didn’t know why Pearl said that.

“Empress, before Pearl followed the Eastern Queen, she was just a poor little girl among the people. Later on, I was fortunate enough to enter the palace and was able to follow by Empress Dongfang’s side, becoming a personal maid. ” Pearl continued.

“Oh!” pearl, then did you have a hard time in the people? ” Yi Fei saw Pearl’s gloomy expression, so she asked about Pearl with concern.

“Empress, the nobles of the official eunuchs that you grew up with do not understand the difficulties of us poor families. When she was young, Pearl often did not have food to eat, and her parents were honest farmers. The most common food in the family is picking some wild vegetables and cooking them together with some rice. It becomes a meal, so after Pearl entered the palace, she became so fond of eating because Pearl was already afraid of being hungry. ” At this point, Pearl no longer had her usual playful expression and was about to cry.

“Alright! Pearl, the Empress knows that you must have suffered a lot in the past when you were a commoner. It doesn’t matter if you like it, since we’ve both eaten the same thing since you and I returned to the Palace. So, after you finished all the pastries today, the Empress did not blame you at all, do you understand? ” When Yi Fei saw Pearl’s aggrieved appearance, her own heart also felt very uncomfortable. Therefore, she could only comfort Pearl like this.

Pearl wiped the tears she was about to shed and drank the soup with Yi Fei.

“Esteemed Concubine Yi, long time no see! I wonder how esteemed wangfei is thinking about this official’s previous proposal? ” Just as Yi Fei was reminiscing about the scene when she had the vegetable soup with Pearl, she heard this very annoying voice. The Vice Commander with the sabre came again.

Yi Fei opened her eyes and looked at the Vice Commander of the Imperial Bodyguard, then closed her eyes. The Vice Commander of the Bodyguard asked for a bit of dissatisfaction, but the Vice Commander merely smiled at him and continued to speak.

“Imperial Concubine Yi, the time this official has given you to consider isn’t small. But if the Empress still refused to cooperate with this official, it would be very difficult for this official to report back to the Emperor. It was best for Empress Dowager Yi to consider things more clearly. Imperial Concubine Yi can rest assured of this humble one’s credibility. ” After the Vice Commander of the Bodyguard spoke, his face was still smirking.

“Pfft!” It’s been three days since this Imperial Concubine entered. Only now did I find out that you couldn’t help but have a disgusted expression and the words you spoke were even more disgusting. ” When Yi Fei heard what the vice commander said, she couldn’t hold it in anymore.

“Haha!” If esteemed wangfei was willing to speak, that would be for the best. “If this official can’t hear Empress Yi’s voice or reply, then the only choice I have is to close the case hastily.” The Vice Commander of the guards said.

“Nonsense, this Imperial Concubine is not dead yet.” This Imperial Concubine is still alive and well. Are you very disappointed? Listen up, I’ve never done it before. I won’t admit it wrong. You’d better be more polite with me, otherwise, when I’m out of jail, I’ll slowly and properly take care of you! ” Yi Fei said fiercely.

“Haha!” Imperial Concubine Yi, this official has always respected the Empress as the imperial concubine favored by the emperor, so I’ve always given the Empress some leeway. “Her purpose was to find a way to make both sides more beautiful. Empress Dowager could live a bit more comfortably, and this official could have already reported the results of the case to the emperor. Imperial Concubine Yi, please cooperate with this official a bit more.” The Vice Commander of the guards said.
