"Forget the worry cake, that's a funny name."

The palace beauty looked at the plate of small shortbreads, and finally showed a smile on her face, and said: "I asked people to make this little shortbread this morning, and to do a charity conference, many chefs have made a lot of fancy dishes, but none of them like me, so I can only take them to give alms and fool those wandering ghosts." I don't know where this little shortbread came from? ”

The scribe blinked: "I won't say it yet, you can taste one and see how it tastes, and then make a comment." ”

The palace beauty jade twisted her hand lightly, picked up a small shortbread, didn't care, and put it in her mouth.

At the entrance of this shortbread, the palace beauties suddenly lit up.

Crisp but not broken, oily but not greasy, crispy and palatable.

What's even more commendable is that this shortbread melts in your mouth without any sticky feeling, and the taste and texture are excellent.

The only drawback is that the shortbread is generally oily and the level is not clear enough.

"I've tasted a lot of little shortbread today, and this one is pretty good, who made it?"

The palace beauty asked curiously, the scribe smiled, and said mysteriously: "Don't hide it from Your Highness, I came today to protect a person for Your Highness, if you are satisfied with this little shortbread, then you might as well try to let him come to the chef's cooking competition this time, I think, he will definitely not disappoint His Highness." ”

"Who are you talking about?"

"Hehe, he's ......"

The scribe was about to say a name when a sharp voice suddenly came from outside the door.

"Your Royal Highness is summoned, the imperial kitchen Yisheng, with the latest dishes, come to ask for a meeting."

With the voice, a man in his twenties, with a scar on his forehead and gloomy eyebrows, walked in.

He carefully held a soup bowl in his hand, covered with a lid, and there was heat and richness and fragrance wafting out, and the palace beauty had been frowning slightly, but as soon as she smelled this fragrance, her brows suddenly relaxed.

"What kind of soup is this, so flavorful?"

"Back to Your Highness, this soup is called Yiyin Xuanwu Soup, I have been guarding for more than ten days, only to catch in the Xuanming Fire Lake in the lower reaches of the Ganges River, this soup is yin and yang, the ingredients are even more rare, I believe that if you go to participate in the almsgiving conference with this soup, you will be able to win a big victory."

"Bring it to me and try it."

The palace beauty showed an excited face, she was full of majesty just now, and in the blink of an eye, as if she had changed into a different person, she grabbed the spoon excitedly, and after Yi Sheng opened the soup lid, she suddenly took a long breath.

"Wow, sure enough, the fragrance is thick and long, but ...... Hey, how is this only soup? ”

"Back to Your Highness, the basalt turtle is still stewed in the pot, this is not His Highness's summons, so he specially invited His Highness to try it. This basalt turtle has a lifespan of more than 1,000 years, and needs to be simmered slowly until it is about tomorrow's almsgiving meeting, just in time for consumption. ”

"Okay, okay, it's okay to have soup, I'll try it first."

The palace beauty scooped up a spoonful of soup, took a small sip in her mouth, and immediately smiled on her face.

"Yiyin Xuanwu soup, not bad, if this soup is boiled until tomorrow, it will be even more delicious."

Yi Sheng also showed a smug look, and said: "This soup is secretly made by the ancestor Yi Yin, and it is naturally extraordinary, if it weren't for the rarity of the ingredients, it wouldn't have been ...... the first few times."

As soon as he mentioned the first few times, the face of the palace beauty dropped again, threw the spoon into the soup pot, and snorted: "You say every time that it is the secret of the ancestor Yiyin, but in recent years, the dishes made in the imperial kitchen have become more and more wrong, if you don't see that you are a descendant of Yiyin, I would have driven you away, you should retreat first, if you lose again tomorrow, you will jump into the Xuanyin Fire Lake by yourself, and pay for this old turtle's life." ”

Yi Sheng was originally triumphant, but he didn't expect the palace beauty to suddenly change her face, and she was busy responding to the voice, and retreated in a cold sweat.

Walking out of the door, Yi Sheng breathed a sigh of relief, wiped a handful of sweat, and muttered: "Alas, this errand is really difficult, and I don't know if this Xuanwu soup can win, if not, then only ......"

A fierce light suddenly appeared in his eyes, and he sneered subtly.

In the hall of Hades, the scribe spoke again.

"Your Highness, what about this little shortbread ......"

"You don't have to say it, I guessed it." The palace beauty waved her hand, and showed that lazy posture, leaning in front of the bed, "You are talking about that child, although his ability to make pastries is not bad, but in recent years, the taste of this little shortbread is not as good as before, not to mention such an important cooking competition, he is not allowed to participate." ”

"However, he is not actually a child, and his cooking skills are ......"

"You don't have to say it, his father is still in exile after all, and it is not appropriate to let him come out for such an occasion at this time. Mr. Dongpo, stand down. ”

After the palace beauty said that, she closed her eyes and recuperated, and there were purple tassels hanging down on both sides of the bed, as if she had fallen asleep.

The scribe wanted to say something, but finally sighed, bowed, and silently withdrew.

"Alas, this Lord of Hades still refuses to admit his mistake."

This scribe——- that is, Mr. Su Dongpo, shook his head and sighed for a while, and quietly disappeared.

If Bai Chang saw this scene, he would definitely be surprised.

Hades, how can she be a woman?

But Bai Chang didn't know what was happening in the palace of the Hades, he took advantage of the emptiness of the inner city of Xudu, lurked all the way, looked at the smoke in a palace and walked, and was actually hit by him by mistake and found the location of the imperial kitchen.

But when he got here, he was dumbfounded.

This imperial kitchen, this is too big, right?

I saw that there were dozens of houses in front of and behind a palace, the corridor was tortuous, and each house looked exactly the same, and it was impossible to identify where the lamp oil was hidden.

Yi Ya has a letter on Bai Chang, asking him to go to his son for help, but in such a large area, where can he go to find his son?

And this imperial kitchen seems to be very busy, there are people coming in and out of every house, there is smoke rising above every house, and people are constantly carrying firewood and ingredients, as if they are preparing a grand feast.

In this case, it is even more difficult for Bai Chang to sneak in and steal oil.

He dodged several waves of ghost pawns one after another, and bypassed a few cooks carrying ingredients, all the way thrilling, and finally found that in a large-scale palace, inaccessible, very quiet, there was a team of ghost pawns standing at the door, and a ghost general leader, all with knives hanging on their waists, guarding there murderously.

Bai Chang suddenly remembered that Yi Ya had said that the place where the oil of the Nine Yin was hidden was heavily guarded, could it be here?

He couldn't help but rejoice in his heart, and was thinking about how to sneak in, when suddenly a person walked over not far away, walking in a hurry, and was about to meet him head-on.

Bai Chang thought about the lamp oil in his heart, and when he found out, it was too late to hide, and he was in a hurry, and just saw that the door of a house next to him was hidden, so he immediately dodged and hid in, and then closed the door and looked out through the crack in the door.

The person who came was a young man with a scar on his forehead, and he was also full of worries, and he didn't notice Bai Chang, he was carrying two people behind him, but he was holding a black jar in his hand.

Walking in front of the ghost pawn, the young man took something out of his arms, stuffed it into the ghost general who took the lead, and whispered a few words in the ghost general's ear.

The ghost general seemed to have been used to it for a long time, so he directly accepted the things, waved his hand, and the two ghost pawns opened the palace gate, and the man bowed his hand slightly, and hurriedly walked in.

Bai Chang looked strange behind the door, and was about to take a look, and took the opportunity to sneak into the palace, when someone behind him suddenly sighed.

"Alas, little shortbread, little shortbread, what do you have to do so that you can be as delicious as before?"
