Chapter 069: The Imperial Dining Room

The lights in Xiahou Yan's study have never been extinguished, and so is Xiahou Leling's room.

Feng Zi quietly served a cup of new tea and said, "Master, let's be earlier, how can it be good to boil your body."

"Feng Zi, have you heard about Jian Ning's entry into the palace today?" Xiahou Leling still looked at the book in his hand and said lightly.

"Now that all the people know about it, how can the slave and the maid not know? I heard that many people went to see it at that time?" Feng Zidao.

"Maybe I should really make friends with her, maybe it will be useful in the future," Xiahou Leling muttered with a deep gaze.

"Master, you" Feng Zi has never been at ease in his heart since he knew about Wu Shi's storage.

Although she knew that the princess was unwilling to marry, she just thought that the princess didn't want to marry far away. I don't want to, but it's because the princess already has a heart.

And she vaguely felt that the princess was not as good as it appeared to the prince, and the princess hated the prince. She was really afraid that one day the princess would do something that would not only hurt the prince, but also hurt herself.

"Turn off the lights." Xiahou Leling put down the book in his hand and looked at the side of the somewhat stunned Feng Zi and said.

Early the next morning, Jian Ning got up early, changed into the clothes of the kitchen lady in the imperial dining room, and her hair was only tied up with an ordinary silver hairpin. After tidying herself up, she called Qingzhi in to prepare hot water for washing.

When Qing Zhi came in, she saw that Jian Ning had already prepared, and she really didn't use the things that the emperor had rewarded. After leading the little palace maid to put down the things in her hand, she knelt down directly, and said with a self-reproachful face: "The girl is dissatisfied with the servant of the slave?"

Jian Ning was just about to get up and wash her face, but she was also shocked when she saw Qing Zhi suddenly like this. But then it became clear. smiled and stepped forward to help Qing Zhi up, and said, "You misunderstood, these simple things can be done by me."

"The slave and maid are sent to serve the girl, and in the future, the girl will call the slave and maid to do these things." Qing Zhi lowered her head and said.

"That's it, that's it. It's only a few days. Since you've said that, I'll listen to you." Jian Ning is also very crisp. Anyway, in this cold day, she didn't bother to do it.

After washing. Jian Ning simply ate some porridge and snacks, and was taken by Xiaofuzi to the imperial dining room.

Yuqing Xiaozhu is really as Xiaofuzi said, very close to the imperial dining room. After they left the courtyard of Yuqing Xiaozhu, they walked through a small garden. Walk through another arch and you'll see the door to the dining room.

Jian Ning walked briskly towards the imperial dining room, although now the genius was bright. But the Imperial Dining Room has already been busy. The emperor will go to court when he is in power, so he will get up when he is in time. The palace people who wait for the emperor to get up are generally the night before, and they can go back to rest after serving the emperor.

The imperial kitchen in the imperial dining room generally gets up at two o'clock in the ugly hour to prepare some simple snacks or porridge for the emperor. Whether the emperor eats or not is the emperor's business, but preparation must be prepared.

After the emperor goes to court, the mothers of each palace will also rise up one after another. Generally, the requirements for breakfast are very high. Not only should it be delicious, but it should also look good. Therefore, the imperial dining room will be especially busy in the morning.

Although Jian Ning had already gotten up early, she couldn't catch up with the emperor's time to go to court after all, so when she came, everyone was already preparing breakfast for the palace ladies and the empress dowager.

As soon as Jian Ning entered the door and saw the people coming and going, she didn't bother, but stood at the door and watched quietly for a while.

But he was inadvertently bumped into by a little eunuch, who was responsible for putting the breakfast of each palace in the food box, and then waiting for the palace maids to receive it.

Because of this sudden collision with Jian Ning, the plate in his hand instantly fell to the ground and shattered. He was very afraid of being punished by the housekeeper's father-in-law, and seeing that Jian Ning was dressed as an ordinary cook, he instantly accused Jian Ning in an unceremonious angry voice: "What's the matter with you!" Didn't you wake up early in the morning? A cook, it's not good to work in the back, what are you doing here! I actually dared to break the breakfast of the concubine! "

The little eunuch's voice was already sharp, but now that he was so angry, Jian Ning was even more uncomfortable to listen to, and his brows instantly wrinkled.

Xiao Fuzi saw Jian Ning frowning, and thought that Jian Ning was angry, and suddenly became nervous. directly stepped forward and rewarded the little eunuch with a loud slap, and said angrily: "Bold!"

Jian Ning looked at such a little Fuzi from the side, and was suddenly a little stunned. Since yesterday, the little Fuzi she saw was all with his head down, weak, how could he suddenly become so strong.

As soon as there was a disturbance, the people in the imperial dining room suddenly stopped what they were doing, and more than a dozen pairs of eyes looked at the door in unison.

The housekeeper of the imperial dining room, Father-in-law Meng, saw that it was Xiao Fuzi from a distance, and immediately walked over in a hurry, and said with a smiling face: "Yo, it turned out to be Father-in-law Fu, what's wrong, why are you so angry?"

This Meng Gong is also a delicate and sleek person on this fair day, otherwise he would not have had such a high-water errand as the steward of the imperial dining room.

"Gonggong Meng has been promoted, you still call the slave Xiaofuzi, the slave doesn't want to gossip in vain!" Xiao Fuzi is still not half subdued in front of this Meng Gonggong, but is more imposing than that Meng Gonggong.

"Gonggong Meng, I haven't seen you for a few days, why are your people more and more unruly, obviously they collided with the nobles, and they dare to be wild in front of the nobles!"

The little eunuch just now, when he saw Gonggong Meng's appearance, he was already frightened into a cold sweat. Xiao Fuzi kept his head down just now, and he thought it was an ignorant little eunuch! Besides, the woman is true. [,! It's a cook's dress, who knows what kind of noble person she is?

When Gonggong Meng heard this, he didn't say anything first, but secretly glanced at Jian Ning. Jian Ning knew that he was looking at himself, but he didn't show anything, but instead stood there generously, letting them look at him.

Gonggong Meng is not a simple lord, he only knows how to manage the imperial dining room. Most of the things in this palace are clear to him, and when he heard Xiaofuzi say this, he looked at Jian Ning again, and suddenly understood everything, and immediately bent down and smiled and said: "I think this is Miss Jane, just now this slave is ignorant and offended you. The minions will take the people down and train them well."

Everyone was shocked when they heard Gonggong Meng say this, and they had already received a notice from Gonggong Fan yesterday that there would be a person with superb cooking skills to take full charge of this wedding banquet. However, what they didn't expect was that this person would be a woman, and it would be such a young girl.

In fact, some people here have still seen Jian Ning's side, after all, when she was competing with the pastry chef in Lingsui before, Jian Ning had entered the imperial dining room once. But at that time, there were two people who stayed to help, and the rest were sent out by Long Zening.

Jian Ning took in the doubts and disbelief in everyone's eyes, she knew that although with Long Zeye's will, these people would not disobey her, but if they wanted to convince her and be willing to help her sincerely, they still needed to work hard.

She looked at the broken plates and snacks on the ground, and Jian Ning asked the kneeling little eunuch lightly, "You just said that this is breakfast for the concubine?"

The little eunuch already knew that he had made a big mistake, and he dared to be a little sloppy, so he immediately nodded and said, "Yes, yes, yes."

Jian Ning glanced at Gonggong Meng, who was standing there, and said with a light smile: "Father-in-law is polite, the masters of these palaces are still waiting for breakfast, and the father-in-law should do his best to arrange it, so as not to blame the master when he gets it."

After the words fell, Jian Ning also said aloud to everyone: "All of you should finish the work in your hands first. As for this concubine's breakfast, it's my responsibility to break it, so I'll prepare a new one! "

Guifei Niangniang, you don't have to think about it to know that it must be Ai Duoer. Jian Ning didn't expect that the first dish she made when she entered the palace was actually made for Ai Duoer. But in order for herself to complete this thing smoothly, she can not care about anything, as long as she can achieve her goal.

Jian Ning called the imperial chef who usually prepares breakfast for Ai Duoer, and after asking some of Ai Duoer's preferences, she began to prepare.

According to the imperial chef, Ador doesn't like to eat greasy things in the morning, and usually prepares some vegetarian food. And unlike other concubines, Ador likes sweet snacks. She doesn't like anything too sweet, so her weekday breakfast is a bowl of slightly sweet porridge with one or two delicate savory snacks.

Jian Ning knew that her every move now was under the watchful eyes of others, but she didn't mind at all, she was still immersed in her food world.

Jian Ning glanced at the prepared ingredients, turned her head and asked Xiao Fuzi, "What about the small box I brought when I entered the palace?"

Jian Ning didn't prepare anything, only her own set of baby knives. However, when entering the palace, he could not carry weapons, so he handed it over to Long Zening at that time, and a special person was responsible for bringing it into the palace.

When Xiao Fuzi heard this, she immediately called someone to fetch it, and after a while, she put Jian Ning's knife in front of her.

Jian Ning took one of the knives and took some bell peppers and carrots and shredded them. Jian Ning's knife work is still the same, and it is so fast that people can't see clearly. She knew that this trick was enough for many people here not to underestimate her.

After processing the shredded vegetables, Jian Ning flies the cabbage and spinach, and then stacks the shredded vegetables on the cabbage, rolls them into rolls, and then cuts them into even sections.

After that, Jian Ning took a plate and placed the vegetables on the plate one by one.

Finally, take the oil from the pan and add the abalone juice with water starch and a little salt to cook a thick soup. While it's hot, pour the juice over the colourful vegetable rolls and you're ready for a simple vegetarian snack. (To be continued)
