Chapter 311: Pleasing the Queen Mother
The hall was empty, and Chen Xi knelt on the ground, his heart had already risen to his throat, but he didn't dare to move.
"Aren't you afraid? In front of the mourning family, he actually satirized the monarch openly and secretly, and the appearance was inconsistent! ”
"The courtiers don't dare! The courtiers are just telling the truth! And when I was in the folk before, I heard that the Queen Mother was the most charitable person in the world, and she was also the most fair, so the courtiers dared to tell the truth! ”
A sycophant is not clever, but it is very happy for the Queen Mother.
"He's really a shrewd person, but don't be afraid, I didn't want to punish you here, but I didn't have a good appetite for the mourning family recently, and I heard that you are the best at making dim sum......"
It turned out that this was the case, hearing that he could go home just by making some snacks, Chen Xi was overjoyed, and then slammed his head on the ground, and was soon taken to the small kitchen in the Queen Mother Palace by a palace maid.
The Queen Mother is the most precious woman in the palace, and the small kitchen naturally has everything. Chen Xi originally thought that the kitchen of the Zhenguo Mansion was good enough, but after entering the palace, he found that there was a big deal.
It's just a one-person kitchen, and there are more than a dozen stoves, which can accommodate more than 20 people to cook at the same time. After Chen Xi walked in, he first opened his eyes, and then began to get busy.
On the way here, Chen Xi had already thought about it, the Queen Mother, like the old lady of the Gu family, was an elderly person who ate and ate with teeth, and he was not a joke.
So this time it is nothing else, it is hawthorn cake, which is to integrate hawthorn into the pastry, and add some rock sugar sweet and sour, which can make the elderly have a great appetite and is easy to digest.
Chen Xi was busy in the kitchen alone, and invited all the people in the imperial kitchen out.
Chen Xi inside the door was busy, and the imperial chefs outside were stretching their necks one by one to look inside, of course, they didn't want to learn art, but felt unconvinced.
"What is this called? We have been working in this palace for decades, and now we have been kicked out by a rural woman, and we have no face even if this matter is spread! ”
"Who said no, everyone in the family knows that I am now very decent in the palace, but now it is like this, the queen mother has not eaten well for several days, the emperor is in a hurry, and the queen is the same, if it goes on like this, I am afraid that our errand will not be saved, maybe we will not lose our lives!"
This is the sorrow of being an errand in the palace, of course, there are many rewards for doing things well, but if there is a time out, it will be a loss of luck, and it will even affect the family.
They looked at each other one by one, and while they were not convinced, they had some hopes, hoping that Chen Xi could research a dish that the Queen Mother liked to eat, all in all, this mood was extremely complicated.
In the midst of this entanglement, I soon smelled a burst of fragrance, although those chefs have been in the industry for many years, but they have to admit that this fragrance is indeed very unique.
With a little bit of milky smell and a little bit of hawthorn, they kept swallowing, their eyes showing hope and more jealousy.
"It seems that people are really more popular than people!" Although they were not convinced in their hearts, Chen Xi's identity was special, and it was not something they could afford to offend.
Half an hour later, Chen Xi came to the Empress Dowager's palace with his own dim sum, fish fillet and lean porridge, and cooked dishes himself.
"I know that your old man has eaten all kinds of delicious food, so I specially made some ordinary people to eat, and I hope the Queen Mother will not dislike it!" Chen Xi had already placed things on the table as he spoke.
The Queen Mother glanced at it lightly, although the things on the table were home-cooked side dishes, but under Chen Xi's decoration, they were full of color, flavor, and flavor, especially the fragrance that came to the nose, which made people swallow their saliva non-stop.
"Good workmanship!" She tasted a bite of fish fillet porridge, then commented heartily, and then set her eyes on those side dishes, although those side dishes were the same as usual, but the Queen Mother was full of expectations.
Picked up a piece of sour and soft cucumber, took a bite, sweet and sour, crisp and delicious, the Queen Mother couldn't help but take another bite, and finally felt a little salty, and drank another bite of porridge.
In front of everyone's eyes, the Queen Mother ate all the things on the table like this, and the most important thing is that the things prepared by Chen Xi are just right, even if they eat them all, they will not feel uncomfortable in their stomachs.
These people in the palace have been serving in front of the Queen Mother for many years, and the Queen Mother has a poor appetite these days, and those of them who are serving are also worried, but now they see the Queen Mother's appetite, one by one, and when they see Chen Xi, their eyes have softened a lot.
And the Queen Mother herself, swept away the things on the table, and still felt unfinished, "The things your girl made are indeed very delicious, but it's a pity that there are a little less!" ”
Where is less, it is clearly enough for one and a half people to eat, but the Queen Mother is too able to eat. This kind of words can only be thought in the heart, and naturally cannot be pronounced.
Chen Xi took a step forward, "The lesson of the Queen Mother is that the courtiers must prepare more when they prepare things for you next time, but your old man has a bad appetite recently, so it is better to eat less, and now that you eat too much, you should also go out for a walk!" ”
"That's what you mean!" The Queen Mother laughed, and then walked into the Imperial Garden with Chen Xi's support.
The autumn wind was bleak, and it was even early winter, the cold wind mixed with small snowflakes slowly fell, and Chen Xi and the Queen Mother walked in the garden.
The Queen Mother and the ladies in the harem were extremely shocked when they heard the news.
……
is worthy of being a husband and wife, both of them are capable, Yang Tinghan can lead troops to fight, Chen Xi entered the palace, and coaxed the queen mother to laugh for the first time.
What kind of person is the queen mother, she is the most noble woman in the world, not to mention an ordinary courtier, even a princess and prince, and she can't talk at will.
But now, the Queen Mother and Chen Xi are walking in the garden, and the news has reached everyone's ears, and many people are surprised and feel lonely at the same time.
The queen's face was gloomy, "I originally thought that I could take the opportunity to help, and then pull it together by the way, but I didn't expect people to solve the crisis by themselves!" ”
Think about how the anger in my heart can't be extinguished.
The personal grandmother on the side was worried, "The coming day is long, you naturally don't have to worry, and sooner or later in the future, it will be His Royal Highness the Prince, even if the status of the Queen Mother is noble, you are not honorable!" ”
