It just so happened that Hua Manxi went up with two bowls of chilled osmanthus coconut milk lotus root powder.

After the briefing, she entered the private room alone, put the tray on the table, and whispered, "Are you two full?" The chef also made a dessert, which is osmanthus coconut milk lotus root powder, which is sweet and greasy, and it is chilled for a while, which can relieve burns and numbness in the mouth. ”

"Don't say it, I ate this pot, it's delicious, it's delicious, my mouth is really a little numb, this dessert looks good." The Empress Dowager took a look at the dessert with satisfaction, the osmanthus was bright yellow, the coconut water was tender and white, and there was a transparent lotus root powder, which was very appetizing.

"It's thoughtful, and it's very discerning." The lord of Yunhua brought over two bowls of desserts and tasted them with the Queen Mother.

They let go of eating this meal, so their stomachs were very supportive, but there was indeed some numbness in their mouths, and they wanted to eat slowly, but the dessert was like they had grown legs, and they drank it all again.

Uh, it's so supportive, but this dessert is also so delicious, fragrant, sweet, and slippery, but it doesn't have the sweetness and greasy feeling that they usually eat desserts, but it is extremely refreshing, which just ends up with the numbness of eating too much hot pot.

"How old is the little girl?" The Empress Dowager obviously had the same idea as the Lord of Yunhua, and was experienced by this bowl of desserts, so she took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of her mouth, and asked.

"Seventeen." Hua Manxi said in a low voice.

"Seventeen is not too young, but can you get married?" The Empress Dowager asked again.

"I'm married, but I haven't married yet." Hua Manxi replied.

"You take this, it should be the dowry that the mourning family will give you to marry in the future." The Empress Dowager did not let her subordinates come to reward, but directly plucked a pearl hairpin from her head and handed it to Hua Manxi.

"It's too precious." Hua Manxi didn't dare to reach out to pick it up, raised her head and glanced at the Empress Dowager, but she always felt that she was faintly familiar.

"You shouldn't say this, thank you to the Queen Mother." Lord Yunhua took the hairpin from the Empress Dowager Taihuang, inserted the hairpin on Hua Manxi's head, and also took off a bracelet, stuffed it into her hand, and said directly, "It's time to thank me now." ”

Hua Manxi hurriedly saluted and said, "Thank you to the Empress Dowager and the Lord of Yunhua." ”

"Yun girl, if you have to enter the palace in the future, take this girl with you, and let the people in my palace also taste this delicacy." The Empress Dowager advised.

"Then Yunhua will be bothered." The county lord of Yunhua hurriedly responded and said to Hua Manxi, "You retreat." ”

Hua Manxi nodded and retreated meekly.

This meeting can be regarded as completely establishing Hua Manxi's status in Yipinju, although she is promoted quickly, everyone is convinced.

Who made the family have the ability, a hot pot recipe sold for 10,000 taels, and they could also get a share of the profits, this silver has not yet been covered with heat, and there was a dessert recipe later, and he took another 3,000 taels, and he was rewarded by the shopkeeper and the master of the palace.

She was originally a very low-key little girl, but her strength didn't allow it!

Of course, people are afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being strong, and there are a lot of things to do if they get a lot of money.

The Empress Dowager had just left on the front foot, and the prince and the ninth prince came over on the back foot, indicating that they wanted to eat seafood hot pot, and they had to spend the chef to go in and wait to eat.

Hua Manxi adjusted the hot pot soup base for a day today, especially with the most red oil, and the whole body was full of peppercorns, so when I heard that the prince was going to eat hot pot, I was still a little scared. This prince is no better than the Empress Dowager, although the Empress Dowager is noble, but her eyebrows are charitable and the Bodhisattva is hearty, which is well-known throughout Kyoto. But the crown prince is different, the prince is the future monarch, and he is quite ruthless, acting ruthlessly, and the reputation in Kyoto is not so good.

If it is a mistake and makes him unhappy, Hua Manxi is afraid that he will buckle the entire hot pot soup base on his head, and he really trembles when he thinks about it.

"Chef Flowers, Chef Flowers? What's wrong? The face is so bad? When he was stunned, the chief manager urged, "You are also tired today, but the distinguished guests are waiting, this can not be delayed, this is what we do, you are considerate and considerate." ”

Hua Manxi came back to her senses at this time, looked down at her dusty clothes, for fear that she would lose her physique and make the prince unhappy, and she wanted to go back and change her clothes, and she was afraid that people would think that she wanted to climb the dragon and attach the phoenix, and her heart was not right, so she didn't speak again, and left with the bottom of the pot in a low voice.

When she arrived at the private room, she was led by the guards into the door, carefully placed the bottom of the pot on the table, added charcoal fire, and waited for the bottom of the pot to boil slowly.

There is not only the crown prince and the ninth prince in the private room, but also others.

The Nine Princes stared at Hua Manxi for a while, and then said unhurriedly: "It is rumored that there is a female chef in Kyoto, also called Chef Hua, and I have some thoughts in my heart, I think it is you, but I never thought that it was really you." ”

Hua Manxi didn't look up, his face was still focused on cooking the bottom of the pot seriously, and then put in the hard-shell seafood, and said in a low voice: "The ninth master still remembers the little kitchen, it's an honor." ”

"Naturally, it is an honor, our ninth master, I pity the beauty the most, this chef is also good-looking, beautiful and lovely, why bother to do this smoky work." One of the men in the seat spoke, Hua Manxi could be seen in the afterglow, this person is not very old, but the bags under his eyes are ruthless, his eyes are vain, and his qi is insufficient.

"Brother Zhao's words are wrong, our ninth master is a long-term affectionate, the last time I fell in love with the little chef dressed as a man, I haven't eaten it in my mouth, where do I still have the heart to think about other chefs, if this little chef is like last time, and runs away again, where will the ninth master's face go?" Another boy joked.

At the mention of this, even the prince who was the east became interested, turned his head to look at Lai Nan Jinxing, and asked: "Speaking of this, I remembered, didn't you say last time that you went to the south to find the little cook's brother and sister?" Why, didn't you find it? ”

"Don't mention it, I went to Stone Mountain, I met Shen Shao on the way, I didn't dare to have fun along the way, I went to that Stone Mountain, I didn't find anyone, I also met assassins, those assassins were ruthless, even I couldn't deal with it, fortunately, that Chen Langzhong was still clever, and he drove the carriage away the pursuers, so I hid halfway, otherwise you should go to my grave now."

"Hahaha, hahaha, the ninth master is really good at saying small, the ninth master is auspicious, where is it so easy to be succeeded by the assassin? Who didn't find out later? "The son surnamed Zhao is Zhao Yi's son, Zhao Zheng, who has always been good friends with the prince.

"I checked, it seems to be the rogue from Beidi, I heard that the town was missing, so I took the opportunity to make trouble and came here to grab some money, and then I was found by the army and disposed of." Nan Jinxing waved his hand and said, "Don't talk about this, let's eat and drink, this little chef's skills are not bad, Shen Shao and I are in Shishan, she entertained them." ”

Hua Manxi had already scalded some crabs, snails and other things at this time, and used a spoon to fish out the scalded things, and everyone had a little bit in their bowls.

"By the way, Your Highness, the town of Guohou and the family of Wei Guogong are married, what do you think?" That Zhao Zheng suddenly said loudly, "That Zhenguo Gong held the military power of King Zhao during his lifetime, and now he is married to Wei Guogong, is there a threat?" ”

"What threat can there be? Wei Guogong is just decent on the surface, his son is an idle job, and besides, Wei Guogong is willing to marry his daughter to a cripple before he can do it. Prince Nan smiled cautiously, "Although he can hold the military power to death, but his son has become like this now, he will definitely not be able to lead troops in the future, Zhenguo Gong is also old, and his health is not good, if he accidentally has three long and two short, won't this military power be suspended?" ”

"That's not for sure, doesn't he have a son?" Zhao Zheng said again.

"A crippled son, do you think his brother will let this cripple continue to live in the world? Haven't you seen these things in Kyoto? What's the hurry? Let's just watch the show, add more firewood when necessary, and the military power will return to Lone's hands sooner or later. The only one to watch out for is the third child. ”

The third prince is the person he needs to watch out for, and the rest of the people, no matter how powerful they are, they are also courtiers, and they can never become masters, but the third prince Nan Jinwei is different.

"His Royal Highness is wise, the little one will keep an eye on the third prince, and he will never let him win over the Zhenguo Gong faction." Zhao Zheng immediately understood the meaning of Nan Jinyan's words and expressed his loyalty.

"Wooing? Does he dare to woo him? People that his father can't woo, if he is wooed, his father will naturally not be able to tolerate him. Nan Jinyan didn't worry at all, and said lazily, "That Zhenguo Hou is just a cripple, you don't need to pay attention to him, if you have time, keep an eye on Shen Shao." ”

"Shen Shao? He is His Majesty's favorite, why are you staring at him? Zhao Zheng said confusedly.

"It is precisely because of his father's favored retainer that he has to keep an eye on him." Nan Jinyan unhurriedly picked up the dish, put it in the dipping sauce and mixed it, and then sandwiched it into his mouth.

There are subordinates specially brought from his palace on his side to peel the shell and test the poison for him, but it saves Hua Manxi's trouble, she just needs to blanch the ingredients.

"This hot pot tastes really good, and I've eaten a lot of pots in the palace, and it's the first time I've eaten it like this." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was unexpectedly praised.

"It's really delicious, I can't imagine that seafood will be eaten in such a way, there is no fishy smell at all, no wonder those ladies are eager to eat." Someone else chimed in.

Only Nan Jinxing glanced at them with a disdainful gaze while slowly sipping on the vegetarian dishes, and said quietly: "You really haven't seen the world, these chilled seafood are far worse than the ones we caught in Shishan!" And there are countless delicacies that Chef Hua can cook, and this is just the tip of the iceberg. ”
