(15) Steamed sea bass

"Smack!"

The loud slap shattered, and the two met again.

An Yu took a deep breath and turned away, she didn't want to, and she didn't dare to look back again...... Is this person with a pale face and a vague footstep holding on to the wall panting is Chu Yuan she is familiar with?

He wore a thin white midcoat...... It wasn't made of coarse cloth, and no palace guard would have let an assassin who broke into the palace wear such good clothes.

An Yu turned his back to him, closed his eyes to prevent tears from dripping down, and held back the overflowing urge to cry with his neck stalked, and his shoulders trembled slightly: "You... You know, you ruined... My plan. ”

"Do you know—" her lips couldn't help but open her mouth to cry, "you do this, no matter what... Whether we succeed or not..."

An Yu took a deep breath, clenched his fists and let his nails sink into his palms, forcing himself to remain calm: "I wanted to grant you the position of general...... You should have been married and happy, and your children were ......."

An Yu's voice slowly became softer and softer, and she staggered forward in distraction, dreaming about the bright future she had planned for Chu Yuan.

"Miss... Subordinate... Wrong. ”

"Wrongdoing?" An Yu turned around abruptly, looking at the pale and weak Chu Yuan, his bloodless fingers pointed at him, and he couldn't contain the sadness and anger in his heart: "Then you tell me that when your life was ruined because of your impulse, you knew your mistakes... What's the use? ”

Knowing what to do?

It is already known that it is wrong, but it is still going to go; Or have you already known your mistakes, but there is no way to undo them?

Whoever he is, it's just as pitiful and ridiculous.

He is the master's favorite little disciple, and he is the first child adopted by his father since he began to teach him to take over the great cause.

Everything that happened today, An Yu not only hated iron but not steel, blamed him for being impulsive, and was more full of guilt.

When did it start?

Why didn't she notice his situation... I couldn't ask anyone... Keep him in good care.

He will never have the opportunity to have both children and daughters in the future, and he will never have the opportunity to make contributions again...... The body is skinned, and the parents who received it, I don't know if he regretted it when he was in pain?

Chu Yuan didn't dare to look at An Yu's eyes again, he knew that his young lady had always put the overall situation first, and even pressed everything on his own for the sake of the great cause...... Mademoiselle will not stop for him.

He followed up, but it was wishful thinking.

He was extravagant but afraid to see pity in An Yu's eyes, and his hand holding the wall slowly fell, bent his waist, and lowered his head to his abdomen: "That subordinate... and no longer appeared in front of the young lady. ”

Chu Yuan leaned over, swaying and turning with difficulty, his steps were vain, like reeds in the wind, swaying, and leaving in the warmth of April.

An Yu raised his hand and put it down again.

She stood on the spot with a broom for a long time, until the twilight was already slightly slanted, and her aunt, who was inspecting the work, came out to punish her.

She didn't eat dinner, but went on with her work indifferently, still cleaning up after nightfall.

On a moonless night, the palace walls were so silent, alone, waving a broom on the cold palace road.

In the distance there was a lamp, leaning against the wall, the faint core of the fire, burning equally lonely.

———————

The light brown soup is sparsely scattered with oil flowers, and the body of a fish is half submerged in the center of the soup, and the light gray fish flesh has tender yellow green onion shreds intertwined with verdant green onions.

It is fragrant and beautiful, and the boneless sea bass is steaming white and waiting to be tasted.

White jade chopsticks celadon bowl, pearl rice and sea bass fragrance.

The little prince's eyes flashed with anticipation, and he put his hands on his cheeks, unwilling to miss any detail, waiting for Songyue to be moved by the deliciousness.

This is the third cook invited this month, his father has already set his sights on him, if he dares to say that he wants to try other rare foods, he will definitely be scolded if he goes to his father to be coquettish......

Clearly... Obviously he's not willful at all, he's just for... To prove that the royal family has the ability to find and enjoy the best of everything.

Li Chongxuan's face inevitably showed sorrow.

"It's delicious, would you like to taste it yourself?"

Song Yue, who was on the other side, had already finished chewing, and put the chopsticks in his hand on the bowl, calmly interrupting the little prince's sudden melancholy.

"You're really against your will," the little prince rolled his eyes, "Is this cook cutting corners?" Why do you eat like you've got a fish bone stuck in your throat? ”

"Your Highness," Matsuki sighed helplessly, intending to stop the chef's imminent unwarranted punishment: "Your Highness is not unaware of the reason why the villain looks tasteless when he eats-"

He almost forgot that he was just a plaything that the prince chose by chance, and Song Yue knew that he couldn't hinder Li Chongxuan's thoughts, so he paused and changed his words: "He makes it delicious." ”

"Then tell me," the little prince raised his eyebrows, and his expression was quite a bit of Li Siyuan's willfulness: "Where is he good?" ”

"Ordinary people's perch will kill the fish in advance for convenience, and this imperial chef will stun the perch with the back of a knife on the board in order to ensure the deliciousness, and remove the scales and dirt before its activity is lost."

Seeing that the little prince listened carefully, Song Yue let go of her hanging heart and said eloquently: "The sea bass has few spines and is suitable for steaming, and this imperial chef has eliminated all the weak and small bones for His Royal Highness's comfort.

Being able to remove the bones so cleanly without harming the flesh to ensure that the fish is as beautiful as ever, shows that the chef has been working for many years.

Steaming is simple to say, but the heaviest knife work and heat, this fish meat is delicious, without a little fishy, blended with the soup, melts in the mouth, it can be seen that the heat is very accurate. With such a heartfelt dish, how dare Songyue say anything? ”

The little prince couldn't help laughing when he heard this: "Listening to what you say is much more delicious than seeing you eat, and you can also cook?" ”

He beckoned, and the spirit man served the royal dishes and chopsticks.

"The villain can only taste vegetables, and thanks to the luck of testing poison for the Queen Mother, he has tasted a lot of delicacies."

"Huh? Let you test the poison? Then do you have an appetite after eating Grandma Huang? ”

"So the villain lived in the corner, and read the essays together."

The little prince almost collapsed, but fortunately, the dishes and chopsticks were sent up at this time, so that he was suddenly distracted.

"Hmm~" Li Chongxuan was actually hungry for a long time, but he didn't want to lose face in front of Songyue, and now he finally tasted the "attentive food" and felt extremely happy, he puffed out his cheeks and squinted his eyes, and instructed vaguely: "It's really good, just let him stay in the prince's kitchen." ”

"Yes."

————————

Song Yue took the next homework and returned to Cining Palace without delay.

Naturally, the little prince couldn't send him to the door, and sat alone in the study facing the table full of classics.

"Do you think this prince really can't find a good cook?"

Li Chongxuan really didn't believe that no one in the world could change the appearance of Songyue eating in order to live.

None of the eunuchs and palace maids in the room dared to answer.

"Your Highness, the big palace maid beside Wei Xiuyi has come to deliver snacks to Lizheng Palace again."

"Put it there, this prince has no appetite now."

"Yes," Shell said softly, taking the plate out of the food box, "Eat it while it's hot, I heard that today's pastries are extraordinarily delicious, and even Your Majesty has praised our Xiuyi's cooking skills." ”

What does my father think is delicious?

Li Chongxuan recalled the tall Li Siyuan in his memory.

Father must be the one who regards countless delicacies as if they were a cloud of smoke!

Speaking of which...... Wei Xiuyi has always been famous for her cooking skills, and the little prince has a plan in his mind.
