Chapter 161: Hot Pot Banquet

Yuan Fu looked at her and hesitated, so he advised: "Let me tell you, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, maybe you can still meet the reward, and then your value will be different!" ”

Ye Jinyan's eyes lit up when she heard her say this, if she could really get the favor of the Queen Mother, she would probably be able to become a real "street fighter"!

"Are you going to enter the palace today?" Ye Jinyan's eyes flickered and asked.

Yuan Fu said with a smile: "Enter the palace in the evening, the banquet is in the evening, you can stay in the palace for one night, and I can take you around the palace casually tomorrow." ”

Ye Jinyan was ecstatic in his heart, thinking that this was also a good opportunity.

"Okay, give me time to prepare!"

Ye Jinyan couldn't wait to come to the back kitchen, Xiao Man looked at the shopkeeper's expression and suddenly became so excited, he couldn't help blinking and asked, "Shopkeeper, what good things have you encountered?" ”

"What a good thing! Tonight, I will hold a hot pot banquet for the Queen Mother! ”

Ye Jinyan's expression turned from worry to joy made the big guy unable to accept it for a while. But as soon as he heard that he was going to enter the palace, the big guy immediately felt like he had been beaten with chicken blood.

Xue Shenxing came in from behind at this time, and when he heard Ye Jinyan say this, he coughed lightly.

Ye Jinyan saw Xue Shenxing's strange expression, so he walked over to him and wondered, "What's wrong?" Are you not happy that I entered the palace? ”

Xue Shenxing shook his head and pulled her to the empty backyard.

Ye Jinyan looked at him with a solemn expression, and estimated that it was something bad, so he raised his head slightly and said, "What the hell is going on?" You look weird these days. ”

Xue Shenxing raised his eyebrows and asked, "I think you're weird, you're so happy to enter the palace?" Do you know that the palace is in dire straits, and it is difficult to save a careless life? ”

Ye Jinyan nodded when he heard him say this, but said disapprerovingly: "Of course I know, but it is very likely that I will become rich and wealthy and get the favor of the Queen Mother, but this is also an opportunity, isn't it?" ”

"Look how confident you are!"

Xue Shenxing put his hands around his chest, looked her up and down, looking at her with such a smiling face, he really couldn't bear to pour her those depressed bitter water.

Xue Shenxing's eyes showed a hint of depth, and then showed a gentle smile: "Okay, but I want to remind you to be more careful when doing things." ”

Ye Jinyan rubbed his ears, only to feel that his ears were about to become calloused, and looked at him with a smile on his face and said, "Got it, Lord Xue!" ”

Xue Shenxing looked at her impatient look, and couldn't help sighing, I really didn't know if it was a blessing or a curse for her to enter the palace this time.

Ye Jinyan brought the relevant things, brought two cooks, and a helper, and drove all the way with Yuan Fu's carriage.

On the way to the palace, she couldn't help but lift the curtain and look at the side of the road.

Xiao Man couldn't suppress his excitement, and looked at Ye Jin with surprise and worry: "Shopkeeper, my heart has been pounding, what should I do!" ”

Ye Jinyan smiled and rubbed her hands and said, "Relax, just like receiving ordinary guests." ”

Although Ye Jinyan is calm and gentle on the surface, in fact, his heart is like a mess, not much better than Xiao Man.

When he came to the palace, he finally opened everyone's eyes, Ye Jinyan turned his head and looked around, the golden glazed tiles shone brightly under the sunlight, making people a little unable to open their eyes.

Xiao Man looked left and right all the way, holding Ye Jinyan's hand all the way, for fear that he would get lost, Yuan Fu walked on the tree-lined stone brick road, turned his head, looked at the two and said: "Later, I will ask the big eunuch to take you to the imperial dining room, but don't get lost, it's very big, and you will get lost if you are not careful." ”

Ye Jinyan nodded cautiously, passing by a palace-like building, the gate was hidden, and there was the sound of the piano inside, and the sound of music was faintly transmitted.

Ye Jinyan was attracted by the beautiful sound of the piano and couldn't help but stop his pace.

Yuan Fu saw her like this, so he chuckled and said, "These are all musicians rehearsing, and they can be seen at the banquet in the evening." ”

Ye Jinyan nodded when he heard this, and his heart couldn't stop surging.

Walk all the way around the forest. Walking down the chic path, every palace here can be described as carved beams and paintings, and it is splendid.

Ye Jinyan was very interested, and while watching, he finally came to the door of the imperial dining room, and pushed the door open with a "squeak".

There are a lot of people here who are busy, as soon as they saw the big eunuch, they immediately stopped the movements in their hands, stood in two rows in a regular manner, and saluted the people in front, "I've seen the chief steward." ”

"Well, this is a guest invited by the Queen Mother to the palace, you can help later!"

"Yes."

Ye Jinyan heard the shrill voice and followed the voice and looked over.

It was a thin, but fair-skinned eunuch, who seemed to have a high prestige in the eyes of the big guys.

Yuan Fu saw this, and after distributing the matters, he turned around, looked at Ye Jinyan, and said with a smile: "I was looking forward to your hot pot banquet that night, I still have something to do, so I'll go first." ”

"Hmm." Ye Jinyan nodded, relieved as if relieved, and began to get busy.

Seeing that the night was falling little by little, Ye Jinyan also prepared fresh ingredients here, and asked the big guy to put the stove down on the banquet first.

Xiao Man's hands have been a little trembling, and he is a little unstable holding the plate, Ye Jinyan saw this, so he said: "I'll go, you watch the dishes here." ”

Xiao Man nodded, and glanced at Ye Jinyan gratefully, he had never seen such a big scene, and he was inevitably a little stunned.

Ye Jinyan followed the team to the main hall together, which was resplendent in gold, singing and dancing, and the sound of silk and bamboo was endless.

Ye Jinyan kept his head down all the way, not daring to raise his eyes, for fear of bumping into a noble person by mistake. She is not such a reckless and uninteresting person, and she has always kept Xue Shenxing's words in her heart.

Ye Jinyan was about to leave, but Yuan Fu walked over, pulled her to the side of the Queen Mother, and said with a smile: "This is the Ye Jinyan I mentioned to you." ”

"Ye Jinyan, the people's daughter, has seen the Queen Mother." Ye Jinyan pretended to be calm and bowed, but never dared to look up at the Queen Mother.

"You're the shopkeeper of Tianzi No. 1?" The Queen Mother spoke.

The voice sounds with a certain majesty, not like an ordinary old lady, there is a sense of vicissitudes, but it makes people sound very spiritual.

Ye Jinyan raised his head slightly and replied softly, "Yes." ”
