Chapter 407: Nine Princes
"The Nine Princes tasted the soup dumplings and thought it was very good, so let the minions reward them." The little eunuch shook and waved his hand at the person behind him, and the little eunuch behind him walked in with a small wooden plate full of silver.
"These?" Ziruo looked at the silver in front of her, and the light from her eyes was in her eyes, and the palace maids around her were all in her eyes.
"Yes, but the Ninth Prince's Father wants a few people from your imperial dining room to go to the Ninth Prince's small kitchen to cook for the Ninth Prince." The little eunuch pointed the upturned orchid at Ziruo and said.
"What about this person, you have to choose carefully, if you make the Nine Princes unhappy, you won't have a good time."
Ziruo nodded, and turned to look at the palace maid in the imperial dining room. Although most of the palace maids in the imperial dining room are small palace maids who have been waiting for two or three years, I am afraid that they will be unable to resist the little palace maids of the Nine Princes, so Ziruo thought of a way to kill two birds with one stone.
Ziruo walked up to Ye Jinyu and told Ye Jinyu in a serious voice.
"Since you made the soup dumplings, then the meal of the Nine Princes will be handed over to you in the future." Ziruo didn't care whether Ye Jinyu agreed or not, so she said to her father-in-law at the door of the imperial dining room.
"Father-in-law, let Ye Jinyu follow you to the small kitchen."
The little eunuch nodded with satisfaction and left.
Ye Jinyu was a little flustered at this time, this Ziruo saw that she deliberately let Ye Jinyu go, but the little eunuch said to pick a few people, Zi Ruopian only picked one of her, she definitely couldn't let Zi Ruo succeed so easily, so she said to Zi Ruo.
"Since my aunt sent me to the kitchen, then I might as well be respectful." Zi Ruo just wanted to smile proudly, but was frightened by Ye Jinyu's words.
"But the father-in-law said that there were a few people to go, so if I go to the kitchen, I must bring my apprentice."
Ye Jinyu's words have been circling in Ziruo's head, how can Ye Jinyu leave Chenghua behind, after thinking about it for a long time, Ziruo didn't come up with any countermeasures, so he agreed that Chenghua would follow Ye Jinyu to the small kitchen.
Cheng Yu has always known that Ye Jinyu is a road idiot, so it was Cheng Yu who took Ye Jinyu to the kitchen.
"Why did you say Aunt Zi would let you go to the kitchen?" Cheng Yu asked Ye Jinyu curiously on the way.
"Obviously, the small kitchen is easier to get close to the emperor and the emperor's relatives."
Closer to the emperor? Could it be that this is the moment when she Ye Jinyu has reached the pinnacle of her life?
"Cheng Yu, what do you mean by that?" Ye Jinyu wanted to figure out this problem.
"The Ninth Prince is the emperor's younger brother, and the small kitchen is next to the side of the Nine Princes' room, where to cook, you will definitely meet the emperor." Cheng Yu was a little surprised, Ye Jinyu didn't know such an obvious thing.
Ye Jinyu is not very interested in the Nine Princes, but she is a little interested in the emperor, she still wants to know whether Li Sui is the emperor or not, this Nine Princes and Li Sui are a little similar, so he and Li Sui must have something to do with it.
After walking for about half an hour, Cheng Yu took Ye Jinyu and Cheng Hua to the small kitchen.
The small kitchen is still very clean, Ye Jinyu took a turn in the small kitchen, there are all the ingredients that should be there, and there is no shortage of seasonings.
Cheng Yu saw that Ye Jinyu was familiar with the environment and was ready to leave.
"If the ingredients here are gone, you tell your father-in-law to let them go to the imperial dining room to get them. Since it is the person of the Nine Princes, I don't think Aunt Zi will dare not give it to you. ”
Ye Jinyu nodded and sent Cheng Yu away, and when he returned to the small kitchen, he saw that Cheng Hua was already busy with dinner.
As soon as Cheng Hua arrived in the small kitchen, he was busy, and Ye Jinyu saw that this was a good time to officially promote the relationship between the two, so he asked Cheng Hua to stop what he was doing and sit together.
"Chenghua, where is your daddy's cook?" Ye Jinyu felt that if he wanted to enter Cheng Hua's heart and open the closed door of Cheng Hua's heart, he still had to start by understanding her character.
"Daddy used to run a restaurant, and now he is a chef at a guest restaurant in the city." Cheng Hua didn't seem to want to mention this matter, and he dodged Ye Jinyu's words a little.
Ye Jinyu saw that the inquiry had no effect, so he took the initiative to tell his story.
Thanks to the old man who gave her an unforgettable memory of entering the palace, otherwise she wouldn't know how to make up a tragic plot.
After Cheng Hua listened to Ye Jinyu's trip to the palace, a trace of empathy flashed in her eyes.
This feeling was seen by Ye Jinyu, who had been paying attention to her, and wanted to take the opportunity to take out Chenghua's heart.
"Then why did you come to the palace? Since your dad is a chef, you can follow your dad to learn cooking skills and stay in the restaurant. ”
"Daddy was also forced to send me to the palace in desperation." Cheng Hua sighed as he spoke, slowly raised his eyes and said.
"Daddy is a chef in a restaurant, and the business of the restaurant has always been very good, but one day when Daddy was cooking, he accidentally knocked over the valuable ingredients that a staff member had to make." Cheng Hua said as he spoke, and tears suddenly appeared in his eyes.
"I heard that the ingredient is very precious, and what can be found in the city can only be found in the palace, how can Daddy and I be ordinary people get the ingredients in the palace." Cheng Hua looked at the stove in the kitchen.
"The staff chased after us and asked us to accompany 50,000 taels. But Daddy didn't have 50,000 taels after working in the restaurant for half his life, and finally Daddy knelt in front of the staff and begged the staff to let us go. But not only did the staff not pity us, but also beat and scolded Daddy, and in desperation, I decided to enter the palace to find the precious ingredients that the staff said. ”
"So? Do you want to steal ingredients from the palace? Ye Jinyu was a little flustered.
Cheng Hua didn't say anything but nodded, then turned his face to look at Ye Jinyu, his eyes full of anticipation.
"Heh, it turns out that the people there are all the same." Ye Jinyu muttered quietly. Swift Reading.com
"What did you say?"
Ye Jinyu hurriedly shook his hand and said that there was nothing, Ye Jinyu understood that no matter what kind of world a person is, there will be no shortage of selfish people.
"Do you know what Mo Shanguo is?" Ye Jinyu looked at Cheng Huan's face full of anticipation, but Ye Jinyu had never heard of Mo Shanguo now.
"Mo Shanguo? Is it a fruit? ”
"I don't know, I wasn't there when Daddy was cooking, and I didn't see what the ingredients looked like. Daddy only told him to find the most expensive ingredients in the palace and bring them back. ”
Ye Jinyu really wants to complain, what kind of plot is this, I don't know what it looks like, so I let my daughter come to find it, so just take an ingredient in the imperial dining room and go back and say that the most expensive is not it? But come to think of it, that person is not stupid, he will not let go easily.
"When I go back to the imperial dining room today, I will ask Aunt Ziruo for you to see if there are such ingredients in the imperial dining room, if so, I think you should be able to get it."
Cheng Hua saw that Ye Jinyu was full of sincerity and sincerity towards him, and Cheng Hua's psychology became more and more convinced that the master he was with was a person who could be trusted.
When Ye Jinyu was a little embarrassed by Cheng Hua, it happened that the little eunuch next to the Ninth Prince walked in.
The little eunuch saw Ye Jinyu and Cheng Hua sitting together lazy, so he pointed at Ye Jinyu and said.
"Don't think you can cook and start arrogating here, the Ninth Prince is different from the emperor, it's better for you to be a little more restrained."
Could it be that Ye Jinyu's cooking for the emperor is already known to the entire palace? Why does everyone look at her with a sense of hatred and hatred.
The little eunuch saw Ye Jinyu and Cheng Hua stand up, and handed Ye Jinyu a menu.
"This is the dinner that the Nine Princes are going to eat tonight, when will it be ready?" The little eunuch looked impatient.
Ye Jinyu thought it was just a dish, simple.
He replied cheerfully.
"Two hours later." Ye Jinyu replied confidently.
The little eunuch left with a smile when she heard this, Ye Jinyu didn't understand why this little eunuch was laughing, but she knew it the moment she saw the menu.
The Nine Princes wrote a dish in the menu, which is Xiao Tang Wotou.
Although Ye Jinyu knew that this dish was a well-known dish in the palace cuisine, Ye Jinyu had never tried to make this kind of dish, and he didn't even know what ingredients to use, how could these two dishes be made in two hours.
Ye Jinyu handed the menu in his hand to Cheng Hua and looked at it, Cheng Hua was also confused, and shook his head to say that he had never heard of these two dishes.
Time passed minute by minute, Ye Jinyu felt that it was not a way to wait like this, but Ye Jinyu didn't know the way back to the imperial dining room, Ye Jinyu was afraid that if she went to find the way by herself, I was afraid that she would not be able to return to this small kitchen in two hours.
"That's right! Cheng Yu! ”
Ye Jinyu suddenly thought that Cheng Yu had been in the palace for so long, she must know how to make this dish.
Ye Jinyu touched his cuffs, and just happened to have a little silver tael hidden in his sleeves, so he walked out of the small kitchen and happened to see a little eunuch passing by, so he stopped the little eunuch.
"Father-in-law, do me a favor."
It may be that Ye Jinyu was too fierce when he pulled it, and the little eunuch who was stopped thought that he had done something wrong at first, and others were afraid when they came to trouble him, and when he heard Ye Jinyu say this, the affection on his face finally returned to normal.
"What's the matter?" The little eunuch straightened his clothes, since Ye Jinyu had a request for him, then he must treat himself as an uncle in front of Ye Jinyu.
"You help me go and give a message to Cheng Yu in the imperial dining room, and let her come to me." Saying that, Ye Jinyu stuffed a few taels of silver in his sleeve into the hands of the little eunuch.
The little eunuch weighed the broken silver in his hand a few times, looked around again, nodded and left.
Ye Jinyu was still shouting behind: "Father-in-law, it must be transmitted." ”
If Cheng Yu can't come to help, then waiting for Ye Jinyu must be a bad day, just come to the small kitchen The dishes ordered by the Nine Princes can't be made by themselves, it's really worthy of his current title, not to mention that Cheng Hua hasn't found that precious ingredient and died with him in the small kitchen.
The sun outside the house was full of sunset, and the red sunset shone into the house, as if reminding Ye Jinyu that the time was almost up! Ye Jinyu anxiously paced in the small kitchen, muttering: Cheng Yu! Cheng Yu! Cheng Hua looked at Ye Jinyu from the side, and his heart became anxious.
Ye Jinyu felt that a whole century had passed, and suddenly heard Cheng Yu's voice, and Ye Jinyu's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Ye Jinyu, you called me?"
"Cheng Yu, you're finally here, take a look at this dish!"
Ye Jinyu saw that Cheng Yu wanted to see a life-saving benefactor, so he hurriedly pulled Cheng Yu to look at the menu in his hand.
"I've only heard of this dish, but I haven't made it, do you know how to make it?"
Cheng Yu was a little surprised when he saw Ye Jinyu's affection for the first time, but after glancing at the menu in his hand, Cheng Yu also felt that Ye Jinyu's expression was normal, Cheng Yu nodded at Ye Jinyu, signaling that he could make it. Ye Jinyu was very happy, took Cheng Yu's hand and said excitedly: "There is only less than an hour, let's hurry up." ”
