046: Picking up flowers and taking pictures 16
Xu Tang was left to eat for dinner. Not only her, but also the servants of the Hall of Peaceful Hearts were even more surprised. The emperor had not left anyone here for several years.
In the past, the Empress could have had this honor, but after the Empress died of illness, no one had this honor again.
Xu Tang thought the emperor had a great meal performance. After all, my aunts taught this, but I was surprised to see it with my own eyes. There were only six dishes and four soups on the table. When they had a meal together, there were more than this dish.
Xu Tang still knows how to serve the meal. After all, he learned the rules when he was in Chuxiu Palace, and when he was at home, her grandmother sometimes asked their sisters to serve him.
She washed her hands and first served the emperor a bowl of Longjing Bamboo Fung Soup and gently placed it in front of her, "Your Majesty, please use it. A bowl of soup before meals will be good for the spleen and stomach."
The emperor was so amused and laughed. Is he treating him as an old man? He only eats like this when he is old?
The eunuch who served the meal was robbed of an errand and didn't know what to do for a while. Seeing Xu Chang doing the meal like this, he rolled his eyes in his heart, but when the emperor did not scold him and actually picked up the spoon to drink the soup, he felt a little bad.
Xu Tang didn't know that he had accidentally broken the emperor's rules for eating. He also picked up a piece of lotus leaf chicken and fried white mushrooms with beef.
Xu Tang was quite serious about serving the meal and remembered the rule that the dishes were no more than three, but hesitated. The dishes were small, and could each plate of three chopsticks be full?
Looking at her entangled brow, the emperor found it interesting, "You can sit down and eat too, don't stand."
Xu Tang thanked her and sat down and had a proper meal. When she saw the emperor picking up food and didn't care about the chopsticks at all, she was so shocked that she saw him breaking the rules.
The emperor glanced at her, waved his hand and asked the people in the hall to retreat, then said, "Look at me, what do I do?"
"The disciplinary aunt said that food was no more than three." Xu Tang was shocked and said what he thought. After saying that, he immediately reacted, his face turned red, and he stood up and wanted to apologize.
The emperor reached out to press her little hand and said, "Sit down, don't apologize at any time, are you tired?"
Xu Tang felt like there was a fire on the back of his hands, and he didn't dare to move, and his face became hotter. He quickly lowered his head to cover up his embarrassment.
The emperor shook her hand, which was so surprising.
Even if she was calm before, she would be the little girl who was about to marry into the boudoir. No matter how free and easy she said, she would have no personal experience.
Now that she was suddenly shaking her little hands, she suddenly felt uncomfortable and silenced her head and didn't dare to look at the emperor.
The emperor looked at her and thought it was quite interesting. He thought he was so brave. It turned out to be a paper lantern. Looking at the bright red hall, it was actually just a layer of skin.
Just now, I dare to be awkward with him.
Thinking about it, he answered her previous topic, "When I hold a banquet, I will abide by those rules. There is no need to do it in private, remember?"
"Ah?" What do you remember? Xu Tang didn't quite understand. She was not a eunuch who served the meal. What's the use of remembering this? She didn't serve the emperor every day for meals.
"You can remember the rules here, and you may use them frequently in the future."
What
Xu Tang felt the hand holding the chopsticks was hot, but he didn't dare to say anything else. What does the emperor mean? She would have to come to serve the meals frequently in the future?
But wasn’t she just asking for this, hoping to get the emperor’s eye and make her life easier?
