Chapter 764: Tasting
"Bring it to me to taste."
Angelica held the medicine bottle in both hands and walked step by step in front of the emperor.
Wang Fulai hurriedly walked down the steps from the emperor's side and took the bottle of medicine from Angelica.
When he took the bottle, Wang Fulai raised his eyelids, glanced at Angelica meaningfully, and then held the medicine bottle and turned around and walked up the steps.
Angelica retreated to Long Xilin's side.
Wang Fulai had already walked to the emperor's side, he opened the lid, and a faint fragrance came to his face.
This fragrance is very special, and it is not very strong, but it seems to have a kind of magic, and when people smell it, it is as if they have touched the switch of saliva secretion in the mouth, and saliva is continuously secreted.
The emperor swallowed a mouthful of saliva next time and stretched out his hand to Wang Fulai: "Give me a taste." ”
Wang Fulai: "Your Majesty, let the slave maid help you try it first." ”
The emperor bowed slightly, and a pair of eyes stared at him eagerly, full of urging.
Wang Fulai hurriedly poured out a golden jelly bean from it and put it in his mouth.
Strange to say, the taste of this jelly bean is not particularly sweet, and after biting, it still has a strange taste, but it just makes people want to eat it again.
Wang Fulai ate one, poured out another one, and prepared to put it in his mouth.
"Ahem!"
The emperor was dissatisfied, and coughed heavily.
Wang Fulai was startled, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the slave has tried it, this candy can be eaten, you can taste this one." ”
Wang Fulai sent the pill in his palm over.
The emperor couldn't wait to grab it, threw it up, and threw it into his mouth.
After eating the first one, it was crunchy, and the crunchy sensation, as if it had exploded in his mouth, several flavors, quickly occupied the emperor's mouth, and then slid into his throat.
The process was so short that before the emperor could taste it, the candy had already turned into juice and flowed into his stomach.
The emperor immediately reached over, snatched the bottle containing the golden jelly beans from Wang Fulai's mouth, quickly poured out three of them, and then threw them into his mouth.
Seeing that he was eating so fast, Angelica hurriedly reminded: "Your Majesty, you can eat up to six pieces of this candy at a time, and any more will be bad for your health." ”
The emperor chewed jelly beans and said with a smile: "I have only eaten four, and there are two more." ”
Angelica nodded, she saw that the emperor was smiling, and her eyes narrowed with laughter, which showed that she was in a good mood now.
Therefore, Angelica immediately took the opportunity to tell the matter of the lotus root.
"Your Majesty, a few days ago, when I was walking in the imperial garden, I saw them digging out a lot of lotus roots, which are a delicious and nourishing ingredient for the body, so on the same day, I asked them to come here, and I entered the palace today to thank the emperor."
"Lotus roots?" The emperor swallowed the jelly beans in his mouth, and then looked at Wang Fulai with doubt.
Wang Fulai hurriedly told him: "Your Majesty, it is the roots of those lotus flowers in the imperial garden, because a lot of new ones will come out every year, in order for the lotus flowers in the imperial garden to bloom evenly and beautifully, so every time this season, they will dig out the roots of those lotus flowers and throw away some.
It's just that in previous years, those lotus roots were all taken out of the palace and thrown away, and it was the first time that the slave maid heard that this lotus root could still be eaten. ”
