Secrets of Yuqing Palace

Chapter 139 Yonghe Palace

Wanyu thought about it and realized that most teenagers in later generations like KFC and McDonald's.

Especially fried chicken and French fries are the most popular.

Not only teenagers, but also many adults often order meals here.

Fried chicken is easy to arrange, but French fries are not available yet, as are sweet potatoes.

At least she had lived in the capital for so many years and had never seen these two crops.

She wanted to arrange it directly, but a good cook cannot cook without rice!

But it's not impossible.

Although there are no sweet potatoes or potatoes, there are taro.

Although taro has a different texture from potatoes, she thinks it's pretty good if cooked like French fries and then spread with ketchup.

So she instructed Xia He behind her to ask the people in the kitchen to prepare some of the meals she and Yinreng usually ate, as well as the meals that the ninth and tenth brothers liked every time they came to Yuqing Palace.

And also added two additional fresh foods.

One is fried chicken, and the other is fried taro.

Yin'er and Yin? When they heard that it was a new food, their eyes lit up.

But Yin? It was because he could eat new food, while Yin'er was there for the recipe.

As his relationship with Yuqing Palace grew better and better, he and Yin Yu had dined there several times.

Almost every time they came, my second sister-in-law would treat them with new and exotic dishes that they had never eaten before.

This made Yin, who had some knowledge of food, feel very curious and satisfied, and his curiosity also attracted Yin'er's idea.

Then Yinzhen came up with a good idea!

After he got the guarantee from his second brother, the Crown Prince, he had been thinking about what kind of business would be most suitable for him to do to make money after leaving the Shangshufang.

After thinking about it, he realized that after Yin mentioned the fresh food in Yuqing Palace several times, he became interested in it.

【yes! 】

【He can start a food business! 】

[Open a restaurant, open a big restaurant! ]

[If I do well, I can open restaurants in every city in the Qing Dynasty. Wouldn't that make a fortune every day?!]

He had thought it all out. His second sister-in-law had so many prescriptions, so he and the tenth brother had already boarded the prince's boat.

At that time, he can get his second sister-in-law to join the team. His second sister-in-law will provide the prescription, and he and the tenth brother will do the work.

In the future, the money they earn can be divided equally.

With his second sister-in-law's prescription, he is the emperor's prince, his mother is the favored Concubine Yi, and he even has the support of the crown prince. His future business will definitely be good.

After his thought was approved, Yinzhen paid special attention to the meals in the Eastern Palace when he had meals there.

Even after every meal in the Eastern Palace, he would privately ask the little glutton, Lao Shi, how the food in the Eastern Palace was.

Lao Shi always gives extremely high praise every time.

This made Yinzhen even more excited.

I can’t wait to leave the Shangshufang today, enter the court tomorrow, discuss cooperation with my second sister-in-law the day after tomorrow, and then get the recipe of the East Palace!

Wanyu didn't know Yin'er's little thoughts, but Yinreng knew them very well.

But he did not object, and was even happy to see it happen.

He learned from the fourth son's concubine's thoughts that the ninth son was very talented in business.

If he could really do business with his concubine, it would not only deepen the relationship between Yiku Palace and the Eastern Palace, but also give his concubine something to do to pass the time.

Although the concubine didn't say it, he knew that she was a little lonely.

Apart from the fourth prince's concubine, she had no one with whom she could confide.

Now the fourth concubine is pregnant again. It seems that the fetus is unstable, so she has been recuperating in the backyard.

The young concubine could only stay in Yuqing Palace all day, busy with palace affairs and matters of all sizes, and her life was not very comfortable and happy.

So he wanted to make her feel more comfortable.

After Yinzhen and Yinyang had their meal at Yuqing Palace, they fell in love with the fried chicken and taro noodles.

Not only were their stomachs full, but when they left, they also took some fried chicken and taro strips with them, saying they wanted to give them to their mother to try.

Especially the ninth child, in addition to his mother, he also has his aunt, brothers, sisters and younger brothers, so he has brought a lot of people with him.

After sending the two away, Wanyu returned to the main hall in the backyard.

She planned to read a book and take a rest.

I didn't get enough rest because of the busy Laba Festival, and I had planned to have a good rest these days, but I didn't expect that the ninth and tenth brothers would come over today.

Although she was still a little tired, she had to cheer herself up to entertain her two younger brothers.

Unexpectedly, when she took a miscellaneous book from the bookshelf and was about to lean on the couch to read for a while, Yucui walked in with a hesitant look on her face.

"This slave has met the master."

Wanyu lazily leaned on the soft pillow, flipping through the book, and replied without raising her head: "Yeah."

"Last time, the matter you asked me to investigate has finally come to light."

Wanyu immediately put down the book in her hand and said, "Finally, I have some clues."

"Who is it?"

"I'm not sure, but some of the hidden clues I found vaguely point to Yonghe Palace."

Wanyu raised her head and stared sharply at Yucui who was kneeling in front of her.

"Yonghe Palace?"

Yucui lowered her head.

"This is what I found out."

A few days ago, just a few days after the Crown Princess's enthronement ceremony, the three wives of the Guwaljia Mansion and Concubine Mu from the Fourth Prince's backyard went to the East Palace to see the Crown Princess.

After several wives and concubines left, the Crown Princess suddenly ordered her to use the manpower of the Eastern Palace to secretly investigate the situation in the Fourth Prince's backyard before Concubine Mu married into the palace.

Especially in Jinglanyuan, the residence of Concubine Mu, who intervened at that time?

Because Concubine Mu was found to be pregnant, but the pregnancy signs were not good, and there was musk in her body.

And it was basically certain that the musk came from the wooden board of the bed where Concubine Mu slept.

However, Concubine Mu's courtyard was arranged by the servants of the Imperial Household Department before she married into the Eastern Palace.

Especially items like beds were prepared early.

Therefore, we only need to check the servants who participated in the renovation of the courtyard before Concubine Mu married the Fourth Prince.

But unexpectedly, after investigating, some scattered clues actually pointed to Yonghe Palace.

This was something she hadn't expected.

She even suspected that the person behind it did it on purpose.

She even checked all the women in the Fourth Prince's backyard, but she didn't expect that it would point to Yonghe Palace.

Who is the main seat in Yonghe Palace?

That’s the Fourth Prince’s biological mother, Concubine De!

Did Depin want to kill her son and make him extinct?

Or is it that Concubine De doesn't want the Fourth Prince's concubine to give birth to a child?

Logically speaking, no matter which point it is, it is unlikely.

After all, the Fourth Prince is Depin's biological son, so it shouldn't be like this.

The concubine had never had any contact with Concubine De, so how could Concubine De be hostile to her?

So when she came in to report to her master, she felt heavy-hearted.

She was worried that her master would think she was not doing her job well!

This was the first major task her master had given her, and she was worried that her master would think she was not capable enough and would not use her again in the future.

So when checking, we are very cautious and careful.

Wanyu was indeed not very satisfied when she heard the result reported by Yucui.

"Is there any concrete evidence?"

Yucui shook her head.

"The evidence had already been cleared away."

"It's just that some clues are vaguely related to Yonghe Palace, so I have this suspicion."

"and...."

Seeing her hesitation, Wanyu said, "What else?"

Yu Cui said: "And the information that this servant arranged for someone to investigate revealed that not only is there something fishy going on in Concubine Mu's courtyard."

"It seems that the princesses in the Fourth Prince's backyard are not clean either, but they are not as hidden as those in the concubine's courtyard."
