chapter eight
After seeing Sanxi, Lixia hurried to Sanxi and said happily: "Master, you are back."
Sanxi looked at the cheerful Lixia and said, "Lixia, I'm afraid you will stay in the palace with me during this period. I just don't know what you think?"
After hearing Sanxi's question, Lixia said, "Of course I do it, but why doesn't my master let Lichun sister come to serve you? She knows that she can't serve her master during this period, and she looks very disappointed! Moreover, Lichun sister is more careful than me and can definitely take good care of her master. Unlike me, she is very impatient in everything she does, and I am afraid that she can't take good care of her master."
After hearing this, Sanxi raised his hand and touched Lichun's head and said, "You are very good, not worse than them. As for why Lichun has not been allowed to come, it is just that he is not used to eating what others have made. It just happens that the imperial chef in this palace is also very good. You can go and discuss with them when you come to see who has better cooking skills."
Lixia was very happy when she heard this. She had been trying to find someone to discuss, but she had no chance. She couldn't wait to say to Sanxi: "Why don't you want to have some snacks now? I'll make some snacks for you."
Sanxi looked at Lixia who was eager to try it out and said, "I don't know your little thoughts anymore. If you want to go, go." Then, he said to the palace maid who had been following them, "Take her to the imperial kitchen. If anyone asks, it's the one I brought and go and make some snacks for me."
"Yes." After hearing Sanxi's words, the little palace maid replied respectfully, then bowed down with Lixia.
"Thank you, Master!" Lixia happily followed the little palace maid after hearing Sanxi's words.
After they left, Sanxi returned to the house, and the people who were following the palace, took out a pair of flags and chess pieces, sat at the table and started playing games with him. Jiuwei sat on the other side and watched Sanxi play chess with him.
After a while, Jiuwei finally couldn't help asking, "Sanxi, why don't you let Lichun come with you? I don't believe that you are just not used to coaxing children like this when you eat."
Sanxi answered Jiuwei's words while playing chess: "It is for her to not let her follow you. There are some things she needs to calm down and think about them carefully; if she can see through it, it is best."
After hearing this, Jiuwei asked even more curiously: "What should she think about? Tell me."
Sanxi pinched the chess piece, looked at the Nine Tails and said, "You don't need to know. As long as you follow me well during this period, you are not allowed to go." Then he put the chess piece down.
Jiuwei saw that Sanxi didn't tell him, and shook Sanxi's sleeve with one hand, while shaking it in a slightly coquettish tone: "Good Sanxi, just tell me, tell me..."
Sanxi ignored Jiuwei who was making trouble, and focused on playing chess with himself.
On the other hand, the little palace maid took Lixia to the imperial kitchen when she saw a mess in the imperial kitchen. The little palace maid opposed Lixia with a nervous look on her face and said, "It's bad, I'm afraid that the King of Jing has come down. Miss Lixia, why don't we go back first and come back another day?"
After hearing the little palace maid, Lixia asked, "Who is this Prince Jing? Why can't we go in after he comes?"
The little palace maid urged: "Miss, please stop asking. Let's go back soon. It will be bad if you get into trouble."
Lichun thoughts and secretly took out a piece of silver and stuffed it into the little palace maid's hand. He whispered: "Girl, tell me, I will only listen to it, and I will never betray the girl."
After the little palace maid took the money, she approached Lixia and whispered: "I tell you, don't talk nonsense everywhere. When someone hears it, you want to behead him. This Prince Jing is the younger brother of His Majesty's mother and compatriots. His Majesty ascended the throne, but only King Jing, who was only a full moon, survived. King Jing has been spoiled by His Majesty, but he has been raised without any success. He knows how to travel around, eat, drink and have fun all day long. People outside call him a fool behind his back, but because of King Jing's identity, no one dares to tell him it outright."
After hearing this, Lixia continued to ask: "What's going on in this imperial kitchen now?"
The little palace maid looked around and continued in a low voice when she saw that there was no one else, "It would be fine if King Jing had accomplished nothing, but she was still very picky about food. If he didn't like the taste, he would go to the imperial kitchen to make a big fuss. Every time he entered the palace, the chef in the imperial kitchen would change it. Today, I am afraid that we were unlucky and just happened to hit him."
After hearing this, Lixia found it quite interesting, so she said to the little palace maid: "Then we don't have to leave. I'm the chef. I'll just go and make some food for him."
The little palace maid quickly grabbed Lixia who wanted to enter and said, "Miss Lixia must not be there. Your Highness Jing is not very picky. If you make Dingxi and don't suit his taste, you will inevitably get beaten."
Lixia grabbed the little palace maid and walked in and said, "Don't worry, no, I'm very confident in my cooking skills. I haven't found anyone in the world who thinks I'm not good at cooking."
The little palace maid could not resist Lixia, so she was finally pulled in. After Lixia went in, she saw a group of imperial chefs kneeling aside with trembling. It was His Highness Na Jing who was sitting in the middle holding a teacup to taste tea.
King Jing looked only in his twenties, wearing gorgeous clothes, handsome facial features and arrogant face. After seeing Sanxi come in, he spoke arrogantly: "Who are you? Don't you know that I am teaching people a lesson? You dare to break in rashly."
After hearing King Jing's words, Lixia said: "In the morning of Lixia, it is a new chef. I would like to ask His Highness King Jing to try the craftsmanship of Lixia."
King Jing looked at the generous girl in front of him. He was seventeen or eighteen years old and had round eyes, and looked full of vitality. However, he looked so young, how could he be a good deal? So he said, "Do you know, what would happen if I was not satisfied?"
After hearing his words, Lixia did not feel timid, but said more confidently: "You will definitely be satisfied. Not only will you be satisfied, but you will also ensure that you will never forget this taste after you taste it."
King Jing looked at the confident little girl in front of him and said, "You are so arrogant, then you can choose a dish you are good at to make. If I am not satisfied, the consequences will be serious."
"No problem." Lixia responded happily after hearing King Jing's words, and began to work hard. The imperial chef, who was kneeling beside him, looked at the girl who was full of confidence and angry, and thought silently in his heart: Although he didn't know where he came from, he still hoped that what you made would satisfy King Jing, so that they would not have to be punished.
After about a stick of incense, a fragrance gradually came from the pot, which was very attractive. After a while, Lixia saw him walking to the front of King Jing with a big bowl and said to King Jing: "This is the noodles with green vegetables and pork. Do you want to try it if it suits the taste."
King Jing looked at a bowl of light-colored noodles in front of him, with two vegetable leaves and a few thin shredded pork floating on it, and said, "You are just making this ordinary thing for me to eat? I won't eat this thing."
Lixia looked at His Highness Jing Wang who refused to move his chopsticks in front of him and said, "Your Highness will know how delicious this noodles are. Although they don't look very attractive, they must taste better than all the noodles you have ever eaten. You can taste them."
After listening to Lixia's advice, King Jing reluctantly picked up the chopsticks, picked up a bite of noodles and put them in his mouth. After chewing them carefully, before he could say anything, the person who claimed to be Lixia could not wait to come up to him and asked, "How is it? Is it delicious? It's the same as what I said."
King Jing picked up another mouthful of the noodles, swallowed it before speaking, "It's just that."
When the people around him heard King Jing's words, their chin was almost dropped. Is this the one who has always been picky and vicious, and he has always been good at evading other people's things for people to eat, and even dislikes feeding pigs.
Lixia was very happy to see King Jing finish all the big bowl of noodles she made; because she usually cooked for Sanxi and Lichun, they didn't eat much, and she always wanted to make a lot of delicious food for them. Although she knew they liked it very much, she couldn't finish it every time, which greatly dampened her enthusiasm for cooking. The King Jing in front of her now looked like she ate a lot, which was very suitable for being her feeding partner.
After seeing King Jing finished eating, Lixia asked, "What else does Your Highness want to eat? As long as you say it, I will make it."
King Jing looked at the person in front of him who held his face and looked at him with a smile. For some reason, he felt like a sheep was entering the tiger's mouth. He cleared his throat and said, "You make a few things you know, and I'll try it."
After hearing this, Lixia did not do it immediately, but said to King Jing: "If I only have one person to do it, it will take a long time. It's better..." As he said that, he looked at the imperial chefs who had been kneeling on the side and shivering, and then said: "You ask them to help me, and then I will make you a lot of delicious food, okay?"
King Jing glanced at the imperial chefs who were huddled over there and said, "Why are you still standing there? Why don't you go and help me?"
"Yes, yes, I will help you now." After hearing this, the imperial chef who was kneeling there knew that he would not have to be beaten. He hurriedly got up to Lixia and asked respectfully: "Miss Lixia, please give me any instructions. Although my skills are not as good as King Jing's eyes, I can still do things like cutting vegetables."
After hearing this, Lixia said to the Imperial Chef Manager in front: "Then help me deal with those dishes, it's trouble." "No, no trouble." After hearing this, the Imperial Chef quickly went to deal with the dishes, peeling the peeling, removing the leaves, and then he became a ball in a while.
After working for more than half a day, King Jing had eight or nine delicacies in front of him, each of which looked attractive in color and fragrant. Before Lixia could give more introductions, King Jing couldn't wait to eat. Sanxi looked at His Highness Jing, who was very happy in front of him, and felt that he had to find a way to keep this person, so that he would not be afraid that he would cook many things and no one would eat them in the future.
The Imperial Chef was also very surprised when he stood aside. King Jing was very picky about the food, but he was so happy to eat. They should thank the little girl who appeared inexplicably. They avoided Yiji today.
