Chapter 164

A group of people stood in the yard, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, not knowing what happened.

Luo Qianqing stood in the shadow and observed the movement of the group of people. When Wan Chenglian got a little impatient, Luo Qianqing finally walked out of the shadow and stood in front of the group of people.

"Who were the people who were in charge of making breakfast for the people of You Zhuguo in the big kitchen?"

Everyone looked at each other, and several people stood up on their own initiative, and then when Luo Qianqing asked who was bringing breakfast to You Zhuguo, a woman also stood up.

Luo Qianqing narrowed her eyes, "Are you sure there is no one? These are the only people who meet breakfast?"

The group of people standing below kept silent, lowered their heads and pretended to be dead.

"Tch, I'm playing tricks again!"

"That is, what is the use of this kind of interrogation? Will the suspect come forward and admit that he did it?"

When Luo Qianqing gathered this group of people, the people who were waiting in the courtyard outside also came over, and the men from the Feather Guard also came over to watch.Seeing that Luo Qianqing was actually the one who stood up and presided over the affairs, their noses were not noses, and their eyes were not eyes.

Originally, they were very dissatisfied with the superior attitude of those women in You Zhu Country, but now they saw that Luo Qianqing, a female official, surpassed their male official, and was the one in charge instead, and they felt more and more dissatisfied in their hearts.

"I don't know if it's just trying to be brave, but I'm afraid that if she doesn't find out, it's okay to lose face. By then, the face of our entire Feather Guard will be completely humiliated by her!"

"It's really a shame! The women of Youzhu Kingdom are deviant enough, but they are not from our Dayong Dynasty. It's okay to be a barbarian and rebel, but as a woman of the Dayong Dynasty, they are still like this. It can only be said that she really takes herself too seriously!"

The male officers of Yu Lingwei all folded their hands on their chests, their faces full of expressions of distrust towards Luo Qianqing.

"What are you men talking about?"

Standing beside them, the woman from Youzhu Country stretched out her hand and pushed the feather guards who were chewing their tongues, her eyes were full of contempt for them.

"The female officer in my Feather Guard made a move. It's okay if you can't help, but you are still slandering each other behind your back. Sure enough, a man is a man, and he has no tolerance at all! At this time, you are still dragging your feet!"

The men of Yu Lingwei turned red when she said these words, but at this moment, no one stood up to refute her words.

It is true that although the other party's words are ugly, the truth is not wrong!

It was obvious that Luo Qianqing was a female official of the Feather Guard, but instead of trying to help, they made sarcastic remarks in front of Luo Qianqing. This is fine when there are no outsiders, but when there are outsiders... And when that outsider just pointed out this point... that would be really embarrassing!

So the men of Yu Lingwei shut their mouths for a while, looked at each other twice, and then turned their eyes back to Luo Qianqing.

When Luo Qianqing questioned, no one stood up.

Seeing their reactions, Luo Qianqing was not angry, but walked down the steps and carefully looked at those who stood up one by one.

The first thing she looked at was the woman delivering breakfast. Luo Qianqing walked half a circle around the woman, carefully sizing her up from top to bottom, before asking questions.

"When did you get your breakfast from the big kitchen? Did you run into other people during your walk from the big kitchen to the courtyard of the You Zhuguo embassy? Where did you pass by? How long did it take?"

Luo Qianqing cross-examined very carefully, which made the woman who delivered the breakfast a little flustered.

She pursed her lower lip, and replied in a weak voice: "The maidservant has been working in the big kitchen since Mao, and only set off to send breakfast to the embassy of You Zhu Kingdom at Chen Shi."

"As for how much time was spent in the middle... I don't know very well, I just remember that when I returned to the big kitchen, Chef Hu was chopping meat. When delivering breakfast in the middle, I didn't meet anyone else."

Before her words fell, Luo Qianqing quickly asked: "Since you don't know exactly how long it took to deliver breakfast, why do you remember so clearly the time it took you to deliver breakfast?"

Regarding this point, the woman did not show any guilty conscience.

She raised her eyes and quickly glanced at Luo Qianqing before continuing to answer, "Because the distinguished guests of Youzhu Country eat breakfast relatively late, and the servants only start delivering breakfast after all the people who deliver breakfast have left. On weekdays, the hour after they finish walking is about Chenshi, so the slaves remember it very clearly."

Luo Qianqing nodded, and continued to ask, "Who is Cook Hu? You said that when you returned to the big kitchen, Cook Hu was chopping meat. Did he pay attention to the timing of the chopping?"

This question surprised a man next to the woman, and he couldn't help looking at Luo Qianqing.

He was covered in fat, and his tonnage was much larger than that of the people around him. He patted his stomach, "The little one is Chef Hu. Your ladyship guessed it right. The little one is right for the meat chopper." Time matters!"

As soon as Chef Hu opened his mouth, everyone's eyes fell on him.

"The little one was originally a person in the imperial dining room. He was an apprentice doing odd jobs with the master. Later, after a little bit of skill, he became the second chef of the dim sum. Because the dim sum made by the small one is our Dayong's specialty. dim sum, so I was transferred to this Lifan courtyard to work as a cook."

"You say you are good at dim sum, so why do you chop meat?"

Hearing what Chef Hu said, Luo Qianqing couldn't help feeling a little confused again.

The Hu chef couldn't help laughing, "I know that adults must have such doubts! But anyone who knows that the little one makes dim sum will ask the little one such a question! But the dim sum in our Dayong Dynasty is not only made by kneading noodles There are all kinds of tricks, and one of them is good at making snacks with meat! This is what I learned since I was a child!"

His face was full of complacency, "Shrimp dumpling bags are nothing like that. Our school pays attention to using meat as raw material to make a completely different taste, or using vegetarian raw materials to make meat instead of meat." It tastes greasy! So this method is much more particular than the others!"

When Chef Hu spoke, his pride and confidence in his craft appeared on his face.

"There is a reason why we should pay attention to the time of chopping the meat, but this involves the mystery of the skill, so I won't talk about it for the small ones. But the small one still remembers that when she came back to the big kitchen , it was the time when the little one was chopping the mince for the third time, which happened to be the moment of the hour!"
