Xie Xiaobai replied respectfully, and quietly retreated to the edge of the fire, "Your nobleman rest in peace, the slave and maid will leave by themselves early tomorrow morning." ”

The princess stretched out her little short hand and wrapped the padded jacket around her shoulders tightly, but perhaps her hands were too short, and no matter what she did, the padded jacket covering her body never covered tightly and leaked from the wind.

Xie Xiaobai had great insight to tuck the corners of the quilt for the princess, and her wrist was held by a thin little hand.

The princess's eyes swelled with dark emotion, "Aren't you curious, who am I?" ”

Xie Xiaobai said: Not only do I know who you are, but I also know that you have been reborn.

But in order to maintain his character, Xie Xiaobai bowed slightly, his expression was numb, his eyes were empty, and he said in a soft tone: "The slave is not curious about the identity of the nobleman. ”

The implication of her words is: In this palace, knowing more about one thing is not necessarily a good thing.

The princess wanted to tell her identity, but she was blocked by Xie Xiaobai like this, stuck in her mouth, saying no, not saying no.

Since the other party doesn't want to know who she is, wouldn't it be very shameless and embarrassing if she said it by force.

"What errand are you doing at the Shang Shi Bureau?" She stiffly changed the subject.

"The slave is the water case of the food department." Xie Xiaobai, in line with the original intention of brushing the princess's favorability, said honestly.

"What is a water case?" When the princess heard this unfamiliar word, she tilted her head to look at Xie Xiaobai, racking her brains to dig out an official name from her thin knowledge of the Shangshi Bureau, "Compared with Zhangshan, which official is bigger?" ”

Xie Xiaobai lowered his head, "The noble man has tormented the slave maid, and the servant is a female official of the eighth grade, and the slave and maid are just a rough palace maid with no rank in the catering department, who is responsible for washing vegetables on weekdays." ”

"I see......" The princess lost her energy and fell into a deep sleep.

Xie Xiaobai stayed here for more than an hour, and when the sky was bright, he took away the cotton clothes, put out the stove, left the young princess with an oiled paper bag with pea yellow on the table, and gently pushed the door to leave.

She returned to the Shangshi Bureau, and the palace people from all divisions had come out to watch the situation. Xie Xiaobai went back at this time, and others only thought that she had gone out to find out the news earlier.

The palace people from the Si Yao Division and the Si Yu Si asked Xie Xiaobai about the situation in the palace.

Xie Xiaobai shook his head, saying that he had nothing to gain, and went back to the kitchener's room.

Miaofu leaned on the back of the door, glanced at Xie Xiaobai, and teased: "You have been out for two hours, I don't know, I thought you fell into the room." ”

"It's about the same, my stomach is upset." Xie Xiaobai straightened his messy clothes, scattered his hair, pulled his hair back up, and prepared to go to work.

No matter who the owner of Daming Palace becomes, the chef will start preparing breakfast for the nobles in the palace as in the past.

Miao Fu threw her a cold and hard steamed bun, "I'll go and ask for some hot water for you, and you can eat some hot water." Today, Daming Palace has changed hands, and we have to be busy. ”

Xie Xiaobai took the hot water that Miaofu poured for her, put the steamed buns in the hot water and boiled, and glanced at Miaofu: "Be cautious in your words and deeds, and be careful with your head." ”

……

Chef's Diet.

Xie Xiaobai and Miaofu were half-squatting on the ground, washing all kinds of ingredients.

The two chefs came back from the morning meeting in the main hall of the Shangshi Bureau, with solemn expressions and frowns.

They also invited the four cooks and the four chefs of the chef to have a small meeting.

"Your Majesty and Empress Dowager Yuan, we must not be negligent." Si Shan bit the word "Empress Dowager Yuan" heavily.

As soon as these words came out, everyone understood the situation of yesterday's battle, and it turned out that it was Empress Dowager Yuan and the four princes she produced who won the final victory.

Before today, the Empress Dowager Yuan was just a concubine, but now her mother is expensive by her son, and she has changed, and the whole palace will call her "Queen Mother".

A palm chef said: "Empress Dowager Yuan's appetite is not very good recently, we might as well make some snacks from Empress Dowager Yuan's hometown." ”

Another palm meal echoed: "Empress Dowager Yuan is from Sichuan and Chongqing, and the people of Sichuan and Chongqing are so spicy, and the sour and spicy dishes are the most appetizing." ”

A series of Sichuan-Chongqing flavored breakfasts appeared on the tray in the hands of the people of Maung Mei Palace.

The thin-skinned and stuffed hands are made into the shape of chubby ingots, sprinkled with red oil and green onions, and served in the celadon bowl of the imperial tribute, with full visual impact of red and blue.

The brown sugar is fried on all sides, poured with thick brown sugar, sprinkled with fragrant osmanthus flowers, and is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside.

Camellia oleifera rice cereal is the base, the fried steamed dumplings are crushed and sprinkled on the snow-white rice cereal, and then sprinkled with soybeans, crushed peanuts and chopped green onions, poured with red oil, and sprayed fragrantly.

Tofu brain is soaked in a milky white soup thickened by a carefully selected pork bone broth, and the color is smooth and warm jade. Of course, this tofu brain is also drizzled with red oil, sprinkled with chopped green onions and chopped peanuts.

The people of Sichuan and Chongqing even have a spicy breakfast. The bright red chili oil is like a gorgeous flower blooming on the white soup base, which adds the finishing touch to the Sichuan-Chongqing breakfast.

Xie Xiaobai lowered his head, constantly silently reciting "food immunity" in his heart, and the action of washing vegetables in his hands was still very numb.

Si Shan instructed: "The Queen Mother has not moved away from Penglai Palace, Penglai Palace is a little far away from the Shangshi Bureau, when you deliver meals, walk carefully, don't spill the soup and water." ”

The palace people responded in unison, holding the tray, and walked out of the Shangshi Bureau neatly, their steps were steady and fast, especially the tray in their hands, which did not move at all.

Xie Xiaobai reluctantly glanced at the tray in the hands of the people who sent the food palace, and thought in her heart that when the situation was more stable, she would definitely use her own example to buy some ingredients in the Shangshi Bureau, cook herself herself, and by the way, improve the food for the princess in the cold palace.

After a while, the palace people came back happily, especially the leading palace people, and outsiders could see her bulging purse with a sweep.

"Si Din, today's breakfast is very much in line with the Queen Mother's appetite, and the Queen Mother was happy for a while, so she used a lot more."

"It's good if the Queen Mother is satisfied." Si Shan breathed a sigh of relief and continued to supervise the progress of the breakfast of the other masters and ladies.

The other palace people in the kitchen division also relaxed, no longer prescribing as if they were facing a great enemy, and resumed the rhythm of working on the desk before.

Xie Xiaobai and Miaofu, the two emotionless vegetable washing machines, can hum a little tune and do their work.

About half an hour later, a group of eunuchs broke in.

The eunuch at the head pinched the orchid finger, glanced at the chef, and said, "Who is in charge of the Queen Mother's breakfast today?" ”

Si Shan smiled flatteringly and handed the eunuch a bag of silver, "Father-in-law, what's going on?" ”

"The Queen Mother used your meal, and the phoenix body was sick and the diarrhea did not stop."

When Si Shan heard this, he knelt down with a "plop".

Her kneeling was like pressing a switch, and the entire chef knelt down with her.

Dianshan, who was in charge of Empress Dowager Yuan's meal, shouted "spare your life" before the chef could identify him.

"Hmph." The eunuch waved the dust, "All the palace people involved, take them all." ”

Unfortunately, Xie Xiaobai and Miaofu washed the two ingredients in the Queen Mother's meal: soybeans and crushed peanuts.

Xie Xiaobai showed a dead expression, and was dragged away by the palace attendant.
