After I traveled through the book, I became the favorite of the cold and indifferent prince.

Chapter 101 Plum Blossom Soup Cake

Yan Qingwan smiled when he heard this and replied, "Maybe it's because I'm wearing loose clothes today, so it doesn't look that obvious, but in fact my belly has begun to bulge slightly."

Princess Gong nodded to show her understanding.

After all, she had been pregnant before and was familiar with these things.

At this time, Concubine Mu, who was not far away, walked over with a swaying step and stopped in front of Yan Qingwan's desk.

She bowed slightly and said respectfully, "I pay my respects to the Crown Princess."

Yan Qingwan nodded slightly and said with a smile: "Get up."

Concubine Mu stood up and her eyes stayed on Yan Qingwan's belly for a moment. She was very envious and said with a smile, "Crown Princess, I heard that you had severe morning sickness after you became pregnant. I wonder if you are feeling better now."

Yan Qingwan said gently: "Of course it's better."

Concubine Mu glanced at the food on her desk again and said absentmindedly, "That's good."

After she finished speaking, her eyes stopped at one of the pastries and she found that it didn't seem to be on her table. She couldn't help but wonder, "What is this dish?"

Yan Qingwan and Princess Gong beside her looked over curiously.

Princess Gong smiled and explained, "This is 'Plum Blossom Soup Cake'. It is made by adding white plum blossoms and sandalwood powder to clear water and boiling it. After soaking, filter out the plum blossoms, leave the tea soup to cool for later use, then evenly add the cooled tea soup to the flour and knead it into dough.

After it has rested, roll it into a dough sheet of uniform thickness, then sprinkle it with soaked plum blossoms as the base, use a five-cent plum blossom-shaped mold to print the dough sheet into shape, add water to the pot and cook until done, then add it to the chicken soup. It tastes sour and sweet, and is very suitable for pregnant women.

Hearing this, Yan Qingwan smiled and joked, "How do you know so much about it? It's as if you've done it before?"

Princess Gong smiled and explained: "When I was pregnant with my first child, I really liked this dish, so I went to learn more about it."

Concubine Mu, who was standing by, didn't know why, but she suddenly felt a desire to eat.

She couldn't help but pursed her lips, and a hint of desire flashed in her eyes.

Princess Gong noticed Concubine Mu's expression and couldn't help but laugh and said, "Concubine Mu, do you want to try it too?"

Concubine Mu looked at Princess Gong and the Crown Princess and said hesitantly, "Is it okay? But this is for the Crown Princess, and I'm not pregnant."

Princess Gong smiled and said, "It's nothing. Try it first. If you like it, I'll ask the chef to make it for you when you get back home."

Upon hearing this, Concubine Mu looked at Yan Qingwan. After all, the dish was on her table.

Yan Qingwan couldn't help but smile, then stretched out her hand and pushed the plate in front of her towards her, smiling and saying, "Since Concubine Mu wants to eat, then try it. I think the kitchen has prepared a lot today."

Concubine Mu quickly bowed and saluted: "I thank the Crown Princess for the reward."

Yan Qingwan waved his hand, indicating that you’re welcome.

Concubine Mu looked at Yan Qingwan gratefully, picked up the chopsticks, picked up a "plum blossom soup cake" and put it into her mouth.

Seeing this, Concubine Duan, who was sitting at another table not far away, immediately wanted to get up.

The Li Fei next to her suddenly said sternly: "Sit down."

Upon hearing this, Duanpin looked at her hurriedly, and said anxiously, "Sister."

Concubine Li shook her head at her, signaling her not to act rashly.

After all, Concubine Mu was not pregnant, so it would not have any effect on her if she ate it.

Although Duanpin was unwilling, she still knew she had to listen to her elder sister's words, so she glared at the position of the Crown Princess not far away, and then angrily withdrew her gaze.

what the hell.

For today, she...

As a result, it was eaten by this thing called Mu.

Here.

Concubine Mu immediately felt the sweet and sour taste filling her mouth, which made her salivate with an endless aftertaste.

She couldn't help but smile and praise, "It's really good, very delicious. When I get back, I'll ask the kitchen to make some."

Princess Gong looked at her with a smile, and felt a little more favorable towards her.

Although this concubine Mu has a low status, her personality is very likable.

"Yes, I liked her very much at the beginning." Princess Gong said gently.

Concubine Mu came here to curry favor with him.

Naturally, I agreed and tried my best to please him.

For a moment, the atmosphere was quite good.

Soon, the eunuch outside the door shouted, "The Emperor has arrived, the Empress has arrived."

Everyone took their seats and waited. Yan Qingwan, like Princess Gong, stood up and moved to her seat.

After the emperor and empress, dressed in gorgeous dark yellow robes, took their seats at the top, everyone sat down in turn.

This family dinner was hosted by the Queen under the pretext of appreciating flowers.

Therefore, there were many flower pots placed all the way inside the Qianqing Palace at this time.

There was delicious food and wine on the banquet table, and many palace maids were carrying wine jugs and moving among the crowd. The scene was very lively.

Yan Qingwan had eaten a lot in the East Palace before coming here, so he was not hungry at the moment.

Soon night fell and music began to sound. The dancers, dressed in gorgeous clothes, danced among the flowers like beautiful butterflies.

Yan Qingwan sat on a chair, appreciating it with great interest, his eyes full of amazement.

Soon, she felt a gaze falling on her, hot and direct, making her feel quite uncomfortable.

Yan Qingwan looked over and found that it was Princess An, Xia Yanying, who was looking at him.

Princess An Xia Yanying's father was the Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, and Zeng Yulan's grandfather was the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue.

Before Zeng Yulan got into trouble, Xia Yanying would always appear behind her every time she attended a party.

Therefore, Yan Qingwan did not have a good relationship with her, and it could even be said to be very bad.

However, it is said that this Miss Xia did not get along very well with Concubine Mu's sister Mu Fangwan before her marriage.

And she doesn't look like someone who would swallow her anger.

Concubine Mu is also favored by Prince An, and Yan Qingwan is quite curious about how these two get along in private in the prince's palace.

The moment their eyes met, Princess An on the opposite side was obviously stunned. When she came to her senses, she nodded at Yan Qingwan.

Yan Qingwan also nodded slightly at her as a greeting.

Then he withdrew his gaze and continued to admire the graceful dancers swaying in the air.

Princess An was looking at Yan Qingwan's belly, slightly distracted.

In addition to Xia Yanying, there were many people who were secretly looking at her, and the Queen at the top was glancing at her vaguely.

Yan Qingwan turned a blind eye to it all and faced it calmly.

The Queen, who was sitting at the head of the table, suddenly called out, "Crown Princess."

Upon hearing this, Yan Qingwan hurriedly stood up and walked to the middle, bowing slightly, "Mother."

The Queen smiled and asked with concern, "Is the food not to your liking? I noticed that you haven't even touched your chopsticks yet."

Yan Qingwan: “…”

No, you still care if I don’t eat?

Mmp in my heart.

With a smile on her face, she replied, "Mother, I just don't have much appetite."
