Yan Yue is very much looking forward to the arrival of the second day, will the noble prince who looks very strong enter the kitchen? If it is said that Li Jian will enter the kitchen, Yan Yue believes that after all, the close servants who are waiting for the master can probably be proficient in eighteen kinds of martial arts. can be replaced by Yan Xiao into the kitchen, Yan Yue will not believe it. And Lei Zhentian and Lei Zhenyu must have had the same thoughts as Yan Yue, so at noon on the second day, the three masters and servants actually adopted a wait-and-see attitude and did not enter the kitchen at all.

Today's ingredients seem to be very rich, not only chicken, duck and fish, but also shrimp and crabs, and even the seasoning is much more. Looking at this situation, Yan Yue really doubted that if she waited a little longer, there would be a steady stream of minions in this small courtyard, and there would be chefs in charge of the spoon to report. Lei Zhentian and Lei Zhenyu also wondered while looking at the sky, whether the prince would retreat and say goodbye to the dinner table in this small courtyard completely.

But in the blind pondering of the three of them here, Yan Xiao and Li Jian came, and they came easily. Yan Yue's eyes looked back and forth, only Wan Yan Xiao and Li Jian came, and they didn't bring other helpers; Yan Yue's eyes looked up and down again, and neither of them had any half-finished dishes in their hands; In the end, Yan Yue's gaze fell on the faces of the two of them, and the expressions on their faces were as relaxed as ever, not like they were here to announce that they were not dining here today, but really seemed to be here to help.

"Miss Hua, you can rest today and try the craftsmanship of this king." Wan Yan Xiao's tone was as serious as ever, and he automatically ignored Yan Yue's surprised expression. With that, he headed in the direction of the small kitchen. Yan Yue's gaze looked at Lei Zhentian and Lei Zhenyu unconfidently, completely suspecting that something was wrong with her ears. But Lei Zhentian and Lei Zhenyu were also suspicious, and Yan Yue once again confirmed that what happened just now was the truth.

Yan Yue's master and servant hurriedly followed Yan Xiao's footsteps. Wait-and-see, absolute wait-and-see. Coming to this era, Yan Yue really didn't know that there were also good men who cooked in this era, except for the chef of the restaurant, of course. It is said that even a man who is a chef here cooks for his wife when he gets home.

And this gentleman who is a prince of the Snow Country, can actually cook! Isn't it strange that you are willing to go to the kitchen? Even when she saw the burly and majestic Wan Yan Xiao in front of the kitchen, Yan Yue still had a feeling of disbelief.

"Li Jian, kill a perch first." Wan Yan Xiao said casually. Yan Yue shook her head with contempt, directly doubting in her heart that this man would not let Li Jian take care of today's kitchen work.

And Li Jian had already begun to act, grabbed a fish from the bucket, raised the sword in his hand, and the fish's belly was cut open, and then the sword flowers flew, and for a while he saw fish scales flying, and there was a feeling of falling flowers and snow in his eyes. Quickly processing the internal organs, before Yan Yue could react from her shock, Li Jian had already sent the processed fish to the board where Yan Xiao was standing.

Using swordsmanship in killing fish and martial arts in the kitchen is simply a great shift in martial arts! Yan Yue was stunned, and Lei Zhentian and Lei Zhenyu were very funny. Looking at this Li Jian's skillful appearance, it is estimated that he has never been in the kitchen. Lei Zhentian said directly: "Guard Li, you also have the task of shredding and cutting pieces today." ”

That Li Jian just nodded silently, standing there silently waiting for his master's orders. At this time, Wan Yan Xiao had rolled up his sleeves, skillfully smeared a little white wine on both sides of the fish, and then put green onions, ginger slices, and mushroom slices in the belly of the fish, so that the processing can support the fish belly visually beautiful, and can be flavored when stewing.

After Yan Xiao had disposed of the fish, he stood up, and swept his eyebrows towards the three masters and servants who were looking at him. Yan Yue was stunned, and she didn't understand what kind of style this man was showing at this time, but Lei Zhenyu reacted quickly and ran under the stove to start a fire. After finishing this room, Yan Xiao began to make the seasoning, first took a small bowl, and then put in soy sauce, vinegar, oyster sauce, wine, sesame oil, etc., and carefully mixed it into juice.

On the opportunity of Lei Zhenyu to boil water, Li Jian finished dealing with a wild duck again, and Wan Yan Xiao also ignored Yan Yue's stunned gaze, and still skillfully smeared salt and spices on the wild duck's body and marinated it for a while, and then stuffed ginkgo seeds, red dates, lotus seeds, pine nuts, seeds, mushrooms, glutinous rice, and sugar into the duck's belly. At this time, the water in the pot was boiling, and Wan Yan Xiao put the stewed sea bass and steamed eight-treasure wild duck into it.

And in this stew, Wan Yan Xiao had ordered Lei Zhenyu to light another stove and directly started the sand vegetables. At this moment, Yan Yue no longer had any doubts that the Wan Yan Xiao in front of her would indeed be able to cook. Lei Zhenyu also began to come forward to help wash the vegetables, just as Yan Xiao said when he came, Yan Yue can really rest today.

Returning to the small courtyard with astonishment, Yan Yue still felt like she was dreaming, there were actually four big men cooking in the small kitchen, and she was sitting here waiting to eat, how could this feeling be so strange! When the dishes and rice were served, Yan Yue sobered up from the dreamy feeling, and then looked at the abundance on the table, just smelling the taste makes people taste like they can eat**, not to mention that the dish is a prince himself, which feels even more than the cooking skills that attract people to want to taste it.

The white sea bass lies quietly on the celadon plate, the translucent soup is steaming slightly, and the wanton aroma makes people salivate; Babao wild duck has bright color and tender meat. In particular, the ingredients such as ginkgo red dates and lotus seeds in the wild duck's belly exude a burst of sweet fragrance after steaming, and the aroma of duck meat in the mouth is much less greasy; And the winter melon puree and purse vegetable soup is even more delicious...... A plate of dishes was swallowed in the astonishment and amazement of everyone.

After the meal, the matter of cleaning up the tables and pots was naturally left to Lei Zhentian and others, and only Yan Yue and Yan Xiao were left on the table. Before Yan Yue could speak, Wan Yan Xiao had already opened his mouth and asked, "Isn't it strange that this king would make such a delicious dish?" This did ask Yan Yue's heart, and Yan Xiao took a sip of tea before slowly saying: "When this king's father was alive, his favorite thing was food, and his greatest willingness was to taste all the world's food. Since the king left the palace at the age of ten, the greatest pleasure is to taste the food, if you meet a very skilled cook, you will bring it back to the palace, sometimes because some chefs are not willing to enter the palace, this king will pick their best dishes to learn for a while, so over the years this king has a lot of dishes. ”

Thinking that the biggest thing for a ten-year-old boy after leaving the palace is to learn to cook, Yan Yue was funny and a little moved at the same time, people said that the emperor's family had no family affection, but the prince in front of him seemed to have a very good relationship with his family. Between Yan Yue's thoughts, Wan Yan Xiao continued: "You must think that this king is not like a man, but my father taught us since we were children, in addition to different backgrounds and different circumstances, all beings in the world are not very different from ordinary people when they go to the high imperial power, and they experience birth, old age, sickness and death the same, so the most important thing in our lives is to protect our homes, protect our relatives, and complete our own duties." ”

For a moment, Yan Yue was stunned, the man in front of her, and even the man's family, had also crossed over. Otherwise, why would he say such a plain but real truth? Think about those emperors in history, who didn't think that they were destined by heaven, and who didn't think that they were high up and omnipotent, and enslaved all the people with the idea of obeying heaven's orders. It is really rare to have such thoughts as Wan Yan Xiao's father, no wonder Wan Yan Xiao, a high-ranking prince, will learn to cook.

But then Yan Xiao's words shocked Yan Yue even more, and he said with a smile: "In fact, what the royal brother of this king does is not like the emperor in the eyes of the world, the queen mother likes to listen to operas, every time he goes out of the palace, he is looking for a new script, some can be invited into the palace, and some can't be invited into the palace, so he writes it down and learns to sing." Go back and pretend to be a woman to show the queen mother, every time this time is the happiest time in my palace......"

Yan Yue didn't feel real when she heard it, did Wan Yan Xiao say that it was the emperor's family in this era? It seems that their royal family has no deceit, no power struggle, everything is like an ordinary family, living a good and peaceful life. Thinking that in the Darong Palace, the father wanted the son to die, and the brothers killed each other, and how did Ling Yuechen, the emperor of Cangmu Kingdom, die all his life to ascend the throne, these palace life that Yan Yue had experienced made Yan Yue question in her heart, is what Yan Xiao said true? Is there really such a harmonious royal family in this world?

Perhaps the light in Yan Yue's eyes was too peculiar, Wan Yan Xiao stopped talking, stared at Yan Yue with some confusion and asked, "What's wrong with you?" What's on your mind? Yan Yue immediately shook her head again and again, but she couldn't think of any words to reply to him for a while. But after Yan Xiao's next words, Yan Yue coughed directly, because what he asked was: "Miss Hua's medical skills are so superb, presumably her parents must have taught her how to achieve today's results." ”

Yan Yue hesitated for a moment before replying: "My study of Chinese medicine is indeed a family tradition, and it was my father and grandfather who taught me to recognize Chinese medicine and diagnose the pulse and cure diseases. However, I have a younger sister who likes to cook, and she has studied medicine, and my little kitchen work is all due to my usual ears and eyes, which is less than one-tenth of my sister's. ”

Yan Yue is talking about the previous life, because in the previous life, she was really born in a medical family, her parents loved her, and her family was extremely happy. But in this life, my father doesn't love her, my sisters turn against each other, and my mother is the only one who loves her, but she can only call her aunt according to the rules. Therefore, Yan Yue only mentioned it slightly about the family, and then turned the conversation to the topic that Yan Xiao liked.

The two of them chatted like this, but the more they talked, the more speculative they became, the more they talked about the topics, and they didn't know when the three of them stood behind them. Until Lei Zhentian reminded in a rough voice: "Master, there is a patient in the afternoon that you have to take a look for yourself." Yan Yue woke up at this time, and a lot of time had passed, so she immediately got up and resigned. After Yan Xiao was talking, the topic was suddenly interrupted, although the other party had to leave, but he was a little uncomfortable in his heart. After thinking for a while, he said: "From tonight, Muyang City will be lifted, do you want the girl to take a walk in the city." ”

Yan Yue nodded hurriedly and left in a hurry. Wan Yan Xiao stood in his original residence in a daze, and he didn't know what to think, so he left for a long time.
