Chapter 8 The God of Food is You

The harem is full of mourning and music, the white cloth covers the green tiles and red walls, the palace maids and fathers-in-law, and the guards and officials all wear white ridges on their heads, and their faces are heavy, and they hurriedly enter and exit in the bedroom of Wei Guifei.

Monks from Buddhist temples outside the palace sit in the courtyard, humming and chanting to make people irritated on a sweltering summer day.

Leng Feiran and the crown prince were wearing filial piety clothes, and as soon as they entered the door, they saw the third prince Leng Yiran and the second princess Leng Qinran crawling in front of the spirit and crying bitterly.

"The concubine has passed away, the third brother should not be too sad." After the prince and Leng Feiran finished paying tribute, the prince held Leng Yiran's shoulders and comforted.

Leng Yiran didn't respond, still sobbing sadly, Leng Feiran followed behind the prince, looked at it coldly, and noticed a trace of resentment under Leng Yiran's bloodshot eyes, it seems that the death of the concubine is by no means simple.

On weekdays, the weak little sheep, in case it is a wolf in sheep's clothing, a cunning hunter, or a disguised wolf, who is the prey.

"Interesting." Out of the courtyard, Leng Feiran hooked his lips and snorted coldly.

"What did the second brother just say?" The prince thought that Leng Feiran was talking to himself, and turned around and asked.

"Nothing." Leng Feiran turned the wheelchair, should he be happy or sad that his legs were wasted, did he have been targeted a long time ago.

At noon, the funeral banquet has been set up, and I heard that the food god of the restaurant has been specially invited, and this food god lives in a simple place on weekdays, and almost no one knows what it looks like.

The so-called funeral banquet is the emperor, all the imperial concubines and princes sit together for a meal to remember the concubine, but all the meals are vegetarian and not fishy.

"Now that the concubine died, I was very sad and had no appetite." Leng Nie sat on the main seat, with a splendid dragon robe, full of majesty, "Today's funeral banquet, the God of Food personally cooks, you can taste it." ”

"Your Majesty, the concubine has passed away, you still have to take care of your body." The queen comforted beside her, Leng Nie didn't move the chopsticks, and no one dared to move first.

"Don't be too sad for your father, my mother hopes that my father won't be too worried, and my father will take care." Leng Yiran stood up, waved towards Leng Nie, turned around, glanced down at the queen on the seat, clenched his fists, and gurgled.

Leng Feiran sat next to Leng Yiran, pretending to be light and indifferent, and he didn't know everything.

"Hey, let's move the chopsticks." Leng Nie sandwiched a piece of tofu, which melted in his mouth, without a trace of the taste of tofu, like jelly thorns slicing across his mouth, and a fresh fragrance came out of his throat.

"The name of the god of food is worthy of its name." Leng Nie tasted other dishes, forgot his sorrows, and was full of praise.

Everyone also ate happily, this kind of cooking skills simply threw off the palace chef a few streets, and they all happily discussed eating, without any sadness at all.

Since ancient times, the deep palace has been full of deceit, intrigue, and the death of Wei Guifei has caused only a few people to grieve and be uneasy, and others have also behaved, let alone be sad.

"The God of Food is so powerful, why didn't Your Majesty summon him into the imperial dining room?" The queen asked, confused.

"I thought the god of food was a false name for the waves, but now I want to meet this god of food." Leng Nie stopped his chopsticks and said to the public next to him, "You go to the imperial dining room to summon the god of food, and I want to reward you." ”

Mu Liu disguised himself with Mu Mu early in the morning, entered the palace with a veil, and was busy all morning, with a sore back and collapsed on the chair.

Those imperial chefs who were still mocking all kinds just now were as quiet as cicadas, scratching their ears and cheeks one by one and looking at the dishes in front of them, "It's really a heavenly immortal, and if you can make such a dish, we will be willing to lose." ”

"The God of Food is here, summoned by His Majesty." Father-in-law Bao stood at the door of the imperial dining room and shouted, Father-in-law Bao is the emperor's personal father-in-law, and he has won the emperor's trust, and some concubines with low positions have to stammer.

A group of people gathered around Muru to come out of the imperial dining room, and the director of the imperial dining room hurriedly greeted him and pointed to Muru, "This is the god of food." ”

The dress is simple and plain, all the hair is tied into a small bunch, tied with a purple jade belt, revealing a smooth and full forehead, a light veil to hide the face, a pair of clear eyes, flowing tactfully, playful and lovely.

Father-in-law Bao was taken aback, it was unexpected, he didn't expect that the food fairy was actually a woman, and she was so young, it took a while to come to her senses, "God of food, please." ”

Mu Liu bent down and saluted, and followed Bao Gonggong to the main hall.

"I didn't expect the God of Food to be such a young woman." Leng Nie was quite shocked, his eyes widened, he looked at it carefully, and praised, "It's amazing that you can have such excellent cooking skills at such a young age." ”

Everyone was amazed by Muliu, and they didn't expect that the god of food was actually a little girl.

"Why does the god of food wear a light veil?" The queen wanted to see the true face of this woman, and she always felt that the figure was somewhat familiar, and for a moment everyone's attention was focused on the veil of Makuru.

"Back to the queen, the folk girl ruined her face when she was young, and she was afraid of frightening the masters, so she wore a veil." Muru should be called a courtier, but for fear of revealing her identity, she pondered for a long time and replaced her with a people's daughter.

"It's pitiful." The queen sighed, "How can you marry someone who has been ruined by such a young person." ”

"Today's funeral banquet, the God of Food did a good job, what reward does the God of Food want?" The emperor is happy.

"I, I want to ask the emperor to allow me to enter the royal kitchen." Makuru knelt on the ground, kowtowed, and his heart was about to jump to his throat, "Does this emperor agree or not?"

"Haha, I just have that, exactly." Leng Nie's serious face showed a loving smile, "In addition, reward the God of Food, ten thousand taels of gold." ”

"I wiped it, I didn't expect the emperor to agree so readily, and gave ten thousand taels of gold, ten thousand taels, she is going to make a fortune." Makuru thought to himself, both eyes were glowing with money.

Bao Gonggong brought a plate covered with red cloth, and secretly poked a daze at Mu Liu, "God of Food, take the reward." ”

"Whew." Mu Liu hurriedly took the plate, buckled his head and said, "Thank you, Lord Longen." ”

"The god of food is exempt from courtesy." Leng Nie inexplicably felt that this child had eyes, which made people feel very comfortable, and in the future, he would accept a goddaughter, seal a small grid casually, and cook delicious food for him every day, which was very good.

At this time, after realizing it, he looked at a tray of gold bars, and said that there were 10,000 taels of gold, just a few gold bars, and suddenly it seemed to fall from the sky to the ground, and the royal family was really a pit.

"Tomorrow, Father-in-law Bao, you will personally take the God of Food to the imperial dining room to report." Leng Nie got up and commanded, "I am also tired, and I have dispersed." ”

Everyone knelt down and sent Leng Nie away.

"The god of food will be on duty in the palace tomorrow, and when he enters the palace, he must learn all kinds of rules." The queen was supported by her grandmother and walked in front of Makuru.

"Yes, the minister wrote it down." Makuru saluted and watched the queen leave.

The emperor asked Bao Gonggong to personally take Muliu to the imperial dining room, which shows the love for this god of food, and everyone also understands in their hearts that this god of food has won the emperor's favor, but he is like a tiger, and his wife and children are still cautious, not to mention a cook in the palace.

After that, everyone dispersed, and Mu Ryu stood beside him, looking at the departing crowd, polite on the surface, a few words were sincere, and they were all cold.

She knew that the royal family had always been weak, and many years later, when her family was ruined, she realized that the royal family was not thin, but ruthless.

"Hmph, can't the shogunate afford to support you?" Leng Feiran shook his wheelchair, picked his eyes in front of Mu Liu, and said coldly.

Makuru was startled, stroked his chest, and stammered, "Lord Tishi." ”

"How does the god of food know that I'm Lord Tishi, and sure enough, it's you, Miss Shogunate." Leng Feiran's pitch-black pupils stared at Mu Liu's heart.

"I don't know what the second prince is talking about?" Makuru continued to pretend to be stupid, his eyes rolling around, not daring to look directly.

"And play stupid, little girl." Leng Feiran got closer, his sense of smell was extremely sensitive to others, this girl's unique taste of brioche bread had not changed for many years, he smelled it when she passed just now, ten years ago, it was this smell, that night, it was also this smell.

"Hmph." Mu Ryu jumped away, holding the gold bar, and slipped away in a panic, he was a murderous and unblinking Lord Tishi.

"It's not as simple as you think in the palace, come to me if you have something." Leng Feiran shook his wheelchair and shouted, why did this stupid girl enter this wolf's den, he couldn't escape if he wanted to, and he didn't know what kind of trouble it would cause.

"I was crazy to look for you." Makuru ran and chattered, and the purple carrot shirt was blown by the wind, like a blooming purple trumpet flower, delicate and delicate.

The ornate carriage left the palace and drove down the bustling and noisy streets.

"How did he know that I was the god of food, it's amazing, I've only seen him once." Makuru dragged his cheeks, puzzled.

"Miss, it's okay to hide from the second prince in the future." Mu Mu listened to Mu Liu's thoughts all the way, and he almost wanted to stick to Mu Liu's mouth.

"Phew." The carriage stopped in front of the restaurant, and Makuru lied that he lived in the restaurant for fear of his identity being exposed.

"The God of Food must remember to enter the palace early tomorrow." After the palace man finished speaking, he got into the carriage and left.

Makuru turned around and looked at the renovated restaurant, the glazed gold tiles were very magnificent, and there was an endless stream of guests.

When the shopkeeper saw Makuru, he no longer greeted him as flatteringly as before, and turned to go in.

"This may be the last time I'll be here." Mu Liu was a little nostalgic in his heart, and turned to Mu Mu and said, "Mu Mu, when do you say that our restaurant will be famous in Kyoto." ”

"Miss Pin's cooking skills, sooner or later." Mu Mu smiled playfully and pulled Mu Liu, "Miss, let's go shopping." ”

The two of them got carried away from wandering around the street, bought a lot of things, and happily returned to the shogunate, not noticing the figure who had been following them into the shogunate before leaving.

Lord Tishi's Mansion, after Leng Feiran finished bathing, dressed in a loose coat, sat in front of the table, picked up the dishes and chopsticks, why is today's dinner so unfragrant.

"Master, the god of food entered the shogunate last." Night left and came in, smelling the fragrant food, and swallowing saliva.

"Sit down and eat together." Leng Feiran asked the maid to add a pair of dishes and chopsticks.

Yeli picked up the bowl and devoured it, "It's delicious, the chef of Lord Tishi's Mansion is a famous chef in the world, compared to the God of Food, I don't know how powerful it is." ”

Leng Feiran shook his head, sympathizing with the ignorant Yeli, Miss Shogunate is actually the god of food, it seems that he will enter the palace in the future to take a look.

The cute and stupid little rabbit is completely targeted by the cunning fox, and it is impossible to escape.

"Today, you go to see the Queen Mother, what did the Queen Mother say?" Yeli remembered that Leng Feiran went to see the Queen Mother after the funeral banquet, although Yeli was Leng Feiran's personal guard, he was also Leng Feiran's confidant brother, and he was the most unfavored concubine of the night Shangshu family.

In his early years, he was admired by tens of thousands of people, a young genius, and the son of the emperor who admired him the most, but Concubine Yue died, and later became a wasted leg-groomed Lord Tishi, leaving only the vicious notoriety of Tishi.

Yeli and Leng Feiran are the same age, they have been each other's only playmates since they were children, Yeli is Leng Feiran's most loyal little follower, and naturally they will not be restrained, but in front of outsiders, the two are still commensurate with each other.

"It's still those words to marry a wife and have children as soon as possible, but with the death of Concubine Wei, the Queen Mother seems to have noticed something."

The Queen Mother is also very fond of Leng Feiran, and then Leng Feiran suffered misfortune, and the Queen Mother is even more fond of this little grandson, but now the Queen Mother is very old, and she is in her old age, and she doesn't know how much time there is.

"The wind and rain are coming after all, what should you do over there?"

"A year later, wait until Shen Moliang heals my legs." Leng Feiran put down the dishes and chopsticks, looked out the window, twilight had arrived, and the only star was shining in the gray and blue sky, lonely and dazzling.
