Chapter 25: Huo Sihui Grabs Merit (I)

At this time, "Gonggong Yi took Huo Sihui, the deputy head of the house, to see the Queen Mother!" ”

Hearing this, Zhao Fuqing was stunned, obviously what he wanted to hear was He Lan's name, how could it be Huo Sihui's deputy head of the house, could it be......

Zhao Changde glanced at Zhao Fu Qing, and did not say anything, just showed a mysterious smile.

Seeing Zhao Changde's smile, Zhao Fuqing immediately understood, it seems that his fifth brother wants to watch a good show, or to let Huo Sihui grab this credit, that is, to expose himself to He Lan in front of everyone to defend himself. Unexpectedly, Zhao Changde was really good at picking the time, but he was not willing to be used like this, and acted when the time came.

"The slave has seen the queen mother, the emperor, the queen, and the two princes." As soon as Huo Sihui came in, he immediately knelt down and saluted.

"Flat." When Shan Yu Caitian saw that it was Huo Sihui, she showed a smile, it seems that this is the credit of the imperial chef, she doesn't believe it, but if it is Huo Sihui's credit, she naturally believes it, after all, Huo Sihui is the deputy head of the house, how can that person named He Lan make such a delicate dish?

"The slave thanked the Queen Mother."

"I heard that today's dishes were made by an imperial chef named He Lan, I don't know if they are true or false?" Zhao Sheng Rong asked.

"Naturally...... False. Huo Sihui hesitated, and when he saw the look of Minister Yi's coming, he replied.

"Then you tell me, who did it?" Zhao Sheng Rong asked.

"Yes...... What the minions do. ”

Hearing this, Lin Qingquan was not satisfied, it was obviously He Lan's skill, but he didn't expect that it was Huo Sihui in front of him who wanted to take credit, and even gave the credit to himself, doesn't this mean that the prince of Qing is deceiving people.

Seeing that Lin Qingquan wanted to move, Zhao Fuqing swept away with a look, he couldn't move at this time, if he moved, he would say that his guards were uneasy and kind, and he wouldn't let Huo Sihui tell the truth, and at that time, he would be beaten upside down by the emperor and his fifth brother, and he would not be able to wash it away if he jumped into the Yellow River.

Seeing the eyes of the prince, Lin Qingquan held back, although he hated He Lan, but he was also a person who had a clear distinction between public and private, after all, He Lan was specially brought in by the prince of the Qing Dynasty, how could he make the prince angry. However, seeing the look in the eyes of the prince, he also understood that if he really couldn't hold it, it would be adding fuel to the fire, so he shifted his gaze.

"Oh? You say you did it? Zhao Shengrong had already heard from the people around him, and at that time, Huo Sihui was frowning when he was holding the menu, but he didn't expect that when he was taking credit, he actually stood up by himself, and looked at his two younger brothers, only to see that the two people were extremely quiet, and they didn't seem to care about all this in front of him.

"Yes, the minions will never dare...... Deceived Your Majesty! Although Huo Sihui said so, he was still scared and sweated, this is a real deception, and it can be regarded as a crime of deception, if the emperor knows, it is a capital crime. But if he doesn't get the reward, he won't be reconciled!

"In that case, tell me how you took this into account?" Zhaosheng Rong glanced at Shan Yu Caitian, saw her smile, and couldn't help but let out a long sigh, it seems that the Queen Mother is willing to live like this, anyway, that girl is just ten years old, maybe as long as Huo Sihui can talk about it, he can make a mistake and give him this credit, after all, who can believe that a ten-year-old child will do it.

Zhao Fuqing and Zhao Changde both heard the emperor's sigh, and the two of them immediately lowered their heads and looked carefully at the contents of their cups, but their thoughts were different.

"Yes......" Huo Sihui saw that the emperor was not angry, so he had the courage to speak, "It was after the slave went back, after the brain was changed, that he realized that the name of this dish had a special thing, and it was also to test the slave, so he did this." So, I took the plunge and gave it a try. The first dish was a pig's ear for the minions, and then one was cut on each top, sprinkled with salt and oil, and then served after it was steamed. The second dish is sliced with white radish, then sprinkled with boiled duck blood, sprinkled with salt, and drizzled with oil before it is served, and the third dish ......" Huo Sihui paused at this time, he couldn't remember how the dish was made, after all, he didn't make it himself.

When Yi Tian saw it, he immediately read out the word "waist" with his mouth, but he thought he was very clever in hiding, but he was seen by Prince De and Prince Qing, both of whom showed a smile, and naturally no one said anything.

"What is the third course made of?" Zhaosheng Rong understands even more that this is not what Huo Sihui did, if it is really what he did, he will never pause in the middle.

"Back to Your Majesty, it was the slave who forgot because he was anxious for a while, but the slave only then remembered that it was made by the pig's kidney, and the lotus and chrysanthemum were also specially placed on it. And the fourth dish is kneaded with noodles and carved with a knife. The fourth dish was what he had heard from Ita, but he hadn't seen it, because he had already left the kitchen and gone to rest, and he had misremembered the order, or rather, it was just a misguided guide by Ita.

"What about the fifth course?" The smart Zhao Qingmiao could also hear the loophole in Huo Sihui's mouth, so she said, in fact, she was very curious, why Huo Sihui wanted to hide the truth so much, even the imperial brother didn't help or even helped to hide it.

"Back to Her Royal Highness the Princess, the fifth dish is made with horse's mouth and tofu, because this is a little delayed, so it came up late, and the chicken feet are to be cooked, which almost missed the Queen Mother's birthday." Huo Sihui's last two sentences were more obviously redundant, after all, this dish was served together, and he added two sentences self-righteously.

"Does this king know that there is another dish that Deputy Chief Huo didn't say?" Zhao Fuqing deliberately interjected, "Or is this king mistaken, it's obviously a six-course dish, how could it become a five-course dish?" ”

Sure enough, when carefully calculated, it was a dish, Yi Tian realized that his mistake was one less dish, and he said, "Presumably Deputy Director Huo is too busy, and he remembered it wrong for a while, after all, today is the birthday of the Queen Mother, and he was busy with this, and he didn't rest, and he made a big birthday peach for the Queen Mother, so naturally he would count one less." ”

It's a mistake for a while, Zhao Fuqing squinted his eyes and looked at Yi Tian carefully, it seems that this eunuch chief is really a person who can speak well, and he actually blocked his own problems.

"Oh, Yitian, you said that this longevity peach was also made by Huo Sihui?" Shan Yu Caitian was even more strange, the maids said that He Lan did it, but the eunuch next to him said that Huo Sihui did it, who did it.

"Yes."

"Then why did the maid ring next to the queen say that it was done by the one named He Lan?" Hearing the Queen Mother's question, Yi Tian secretly called it bad, but since he was the chief eunuch, he also had brains, and after thinking about it, he said, "Maybe it's to please the Qing prince, after all, the girl named He Lan was instructed by the Qing prince." The imperial chef can only be appointed by the emperor's will, but ...... Everyone succumbed to the Qing prince, and naturally no one dared to say the fault of the Qing prince, so there was only ...... to the Qing prince."

seems to be defending the Qing prince, but they all know that all these crimes are on Zhao Fuqing, when Lin Qingquan was still about to move, he was stopped by Zhao Fuqing with his eyes again, now is not the time, he has to wait, he will have something to say.

"That's right," Queen Qi Lingzhi spoke, "After returning to her mother, the maid ring around her son has been timid since she was a child, so as long as someone threatens, she must not dare to tell the truth, and the queen mother doesn't want to think about it, that He Lan is only ten years old, and he is an amnesiac person, how can he think about so many things?" ”

And the masters that these people are talking about are still telling all kinds of jokes there, they are eating Ganshu while listening, and the corn tortillas made by He Lan and the longevity peaches made from the leftover noodles are also eaten one by one, it can be said that this is their happiest time, and He Lan didn't know that his credit was robbed by Huo Sihui.

"Sister, sister, you said this joke so well, I was thinking that when I rested, I would go home and tell this story to my younger siblings." Mu Ping said innocently.

He Lan looked at the innocent Mu Ping and smiled, in the laughter, she recalled what happened when she was a child, although she had an argument with her parents when she was in junior high school, but before junior high school, she was extremely happy, but she didn't know what her parents would think when she suddenly disappeared. Although Mu Ping is a eunuch, he still has his own home, but what about his own home? came out of that old man Zhao's house, but entered this cannibalistic palace, especially when she saw the faces of Huo Sihui and that Gonggong Yi, she understood that she had offended these two gods.

"Sister He......" Feng'er saw that He Lan was distracted, and pulled her shirt slightly, "Sister He, are you crying?" ”

"Silly boy," He Lan smiled and wiped a handful of tears, "What are you crying about, I'm squinted by the wind." Come, I'll tell you another story. ”

Liu Feiping, Xiao Anzi and Xiao Jin suddenly stared at each other, they didn't expect He Lan to call Feng'er, who was only one year younger than herself, a child, a child, but she seemed to have forgotten that she was also a child.

"A long, long time ago, there was a temple, and there was an old monk in the temple telling stories to the young monk...... "He Lan brought out the story that she remembered the deepest, this was her favorite story at that time, or she could only use this to express her nostalgia for her parents, after all, she had come here, and she must not be able to go back, so she could only come and settle down.

Everyone was attracted by He Lan's voice again, and then they surrounded her, each raising their faces, and there was a lot more expectation in their eyes......

"The slave was frightened by the queen mother's phoenix body and the emperor's dragon power for a while, so I didn't talk about one dish, and the sixth dish was made with chicken heads and eggs." Huo Sihui took the opportunity again.
