food queen

Chapter 179
"The little princess is really kind and kind." Wu Miao secretly heaved a sigh of relief, knowing that Zhang Ruixiang's old life was saved.

Yun Shuo snorted coldly, and said, "That being said, if you let him go today, won't you be climbing on top of me in the future?"

"Yes. Your Majesty taught me that." Wu Miao didn't dare to say anything more.

"Today, for the sake of the little princess, let him spare his life, and just hit him with [-] boards. Next time, if you still don't win, let him wash the toilet."

"Yes, this servant will ask someone to admonish him." Wu Miao bowed in response and turned to leave.

Yun Shuo turned to look at Han Qian again. Seeing that she was still sleepy, he asked anxiously, "What's going on? I need something to eat."

Han Jin persuaded from the side: "Why don't you let my little aunt sleep for a while. She has been busy since she got up in the morning, so she must be very tired."

"That's right." Yun Shuo helplessly told Pingguoer: "Haven't you been following your princess to learn how to cook in the National Medical Center? The small kitchen is entrusted to you, so go cook some of your master's favorite foods."

Pingguo hurriedly agreed, leaving oranges and cherries to serve Han Qian, and bringing green plums and mangosteens to prepare for Han Qian to eat.

Han Qian pushed the cushion behind her, lay down on the couch sideways, and said in a daze, "I'm going to sleep first, you eat yours, don't worry about me."

Yun Shuo was still in the mood to eat, so he waved his hand to ask someone to remove the food from the table in front of him, and watched Han Qian fall asleep before getting up and going out.

Han Jin came out step by step, and persuaded: "Your Majesty, don't worry, little aunt is just tired, and she will naturally have an appetite when she wakes up. Your Majesty should also take care of the dragon's body."

After hearing this, Yun Shuo looked back at Han Jin seriously, and said with a smile, "You are a careful child."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your compliment." Han Jin was saved again.

"You can stay and take care of your little aunt. I'm leaving first." After Yun Shuo finished speaking, he walked down the steps to the gate of Yihe Palace.

Standing on the steps, Han Jin looked at Yun Shuo's slender back and his sable cloak fluttering in the cold wind, feeling an indescribable yearning in his heart.

Han Qian fell asleep and woke up much more refreshed.

In the evening, Yun Shuo came over to accompany her to have dinner again, and said: "Things can't be done in a day. There is no rush for the imperial chef. You can rest for two days before talking about it."

"That's not good." Han Qian shook his head.

"Actually, the selection is still necessary, but this method is too tiring. Let's try another method." Han Jin suggested from the side.

"Oh?" Han Qian became interested after hearing this, because she asked Han Jin, "What do you think, let me hear it?"

Han Jin smiled shyly and glanced at Yun Shuo, who nodded and motioned for her to say.

"Actually, I think food is like a beautiful woman, with fat, swallows and thin, each with its own style. Your Majesty's imperial dining room should also be like this. The dishes from the north and the south must be compatible, with sour, sweet, bitter, spicy, salty flavors, so that it looks like your majesty has both. As for those cooks or cooks, everyone should have their own specialty dishes. Why don't we divide them into groups and take care of the meals for His Majesty and little aunt every day, so that little aunt won't be too tired and can Let them play their respective strengths. Wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?"

"That's true." Yun Shuo nodded, because the first thing he thought of was not to make Han Qian tired, especially if he was so tired today and didn't want to eat.

Han Qian naturally didn't want to get tired, but felt that Han Jin's statement was too casual, because after all, the Imperial Dining Room was not only responsible for the emperor's meals, but also responsible for the dishes at the state banquet, which most of the time represented a country face.Now that Yunshuo has been enthroned, he has been focusing on cleaning up the government affairs left over from the late emperor in his later years. There are no happy events or large-scale state banquets, but it does not mean that there will be no future... So she shook her head and said, "But, I think the imperial dining room The selection rules laid down by Zhang Gonggong are also quite good."

"Let's change it. It's just choosing an imperial chef. Why make it so tiring." Yun Shuo denied Zhang Ruixiang's words without thinking, and adopted Han Jin's opinion.

Han Qian didn't say any more, just lowered his head to drink the porridge in the bowl.Han Jin quietly looked at Han Qian's face, then at Yun Shuo's face, wisely chose silence, and ate silently with his head down.

After the meal, Han Qian saw that Yun Shuo had no intention of leaving, so he urged, "I'm tired tonight, Your Majesty should go back earlier."

"Aren't you afraid?" Yun Shuo asked with a light smile.

"With so many people accompanying me, there's nothing to be afraid of." Han Qian was actually a little uneasy in her heart, but she still shook her head stiffly.

Yun Shuo lightly smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll leave after you sleep."

"No need. Your Majesty, please go back and rest early. Tomorrow, I will discuss with Eunuch Zhang about the next selection." Han Qian stood up from the couch as she spoke.

Seeing her like this, Yun Shuo felt a little unhappy in his heart. He obviously wanted to call her into the palace to accompany him for a few days, but in the end she took things too seriously and put herself in the back of her mind... This girl really grew up Yes!Yun Shuo sighed helplessly, how cute he was when he was young, he would not let go of him all day long, and would sleep in his arms when he was tired.

Coming out of Yihe Palace, Yun Shuo looked back at the closed palace door, sighed before turning around and leaving.

Inside the palace gate, after Han Qian dismissed the irrelevant people, Fang called Han Jin and said in a low voice, "Jin'er, do you know what you said wrong today?"

Han Jin was startled, and then asked in panic: "Little aunt, what did Jin Er say wrong? You tell Jin Er, Jin Er will definitely change."

"The royal dining room selects the royal chef. This has been the rule since the founding of the country by the great grandfather. Today, His Majesty changed it because of you. What do you think the eunuchs and maids will think when the imperial dining room of the Compassionate Ning Palace arrives at the Zichen Palace? The ministers know these things, what will they say about our Han family?" Han Qian raised his face rarely, and took out the money from the elders, and said solemnly.

"Uh..." Han Jin hurriedly stood up, bowed his head respectfully, and said after a while, "What my aunt taught me was that Jin'er was reckless... Jin'er just saw that His Majesty felt sorry for her aunt, that's why..."

Han Qian sneered softly, and sighed: "In the past few years, the gossip about your majesty and me has been chewed up by the men, women and children in the imperial capital. Now it's up to our own family to make a fuss about it."

"Jin'er knew he was wrong, please forgive Jin'er for being young and ignorant." Han Jin immediately knelt down.

Han Qian shook her head, got up and reached out to hold her: "I didn't mean to blame you, I just reminded you. This is the palace, not our own home. Our words, deeds, and actions are all watched by others." In my eyes, maybe I don’t even need to spend a meal, and I was passed out of the palace to be known to the princes and ministers. Do you know?"
