Chapter 40: My face is swollen

In the imperial dining room, Lin Zifan, Huo Sisi and the other four were waiting for the results.

Among them, Lin Zifan was indifferent, Feng Yuchu was confident, and Li Yuchu faintly had a trace of expectation, but Huo Sisi, who had not done anything, was quite anxious.

"Time flies so slowly, why is it less than half an hour?"

Huo Sisi grabbed his hair and looked puzzled: "According to past experience, it will take about a quarter of an hour for Your Majesty to finish eating, why is the time so slow......"

"Are you in a hurry?" Lin Zifan asked rather amusedly.

"I'd love to know the result!" Huo Sisi was a little frustrated, in fact, she wanted to eat some golden-edged cabbage.

In the past, the empress didn't eat all the food, and the palace maid or Tsing Yi Ziyi would occasionally eat some, but there would be a little left and sent back to the imperial dining room, if the imperial chef wanted to eat it, he could naturally eat it.

But in the past, these dishes were all made by them, if you want to eat them, you can just make another serving, why eat the rest of what others eat?

But at this moment, Huo Sisi really wanted to eat a little 'leftovers', even if it was only one bite......

As soon as the words fell, the palace maid who passed the dishes suddenly came back, and in the tray in her hand, three plates were lying quietly, and they were covered with lids, and she couldn't see if there were any of them.

"So fast?" Huo Sisi was startled, and then almost pounced, set off a burst of incense, snatched the tray from the hand of the palace maid, and opened the lid one by one.

However, empty, empty, empty!

The three plates were empty, and there was nothing left, which made Huo Sisi look confused......??? where is my Phnom Penh cabbage?

Lin Zifan, Feng and Li, the two imperial chefs, saw this scene and couldn't help but be slightly surprised.

"Tie?" Feng Yuchu frowned, and while he was not convinced, he was also secretly surprised: "I didn't expect to underestimate this Lin logistics officer?"

"That's not right...... Imperial Chef Li wondered, "Your Majesty's appetite is not so large, is it good to have a good appetite today?"

"Not really. The maid of the palace blushed: "It was me and the two managers of Tsing Yi and Ziyi, seeing that His Majesty ate too fragrant, I was greedy for a while, so I ate all the rest of the dishes." ”

"Your Majesty's food is too fragrant?" Feng Yuchu's eyes lit up and said with a smile: "It must be that the sauce-flavored summer beans I prepared are deeply loved by Your Majesty, right? Your Majesty originally liked to eat this dish the most." ”

"In this way, you haven't eaten the sauce-flavored summer beans, right? It doesn't matter, after a few more times, Your Majesty will get tired of eating, and you can eat some of them. ”

"No...... No. "The palace maids are a little entangled, do you want to tell the truth? If you don't say it, they will definitely ask what they say...... Feng Yuchu will be unhappy, right?

"Isn't it?" Huo Sisi saw that the Phnom Penh cabbage was gone, and he was a little depressed, but when he recalled the taste of the Phnom Penh cabbage, he couldn't help but be interested, and had great doubts about Feng Yuchu's words: "Tell me, what's going on?"

"Actually, Your Majesty eats Phnom Penh cabbage. The palace maid had no choice but to tell the truth.

"Phnom Penh cabbage?" Feng Yuchu's face instantly became extremely ugly: "You mean, Your Majesty eats more Phnom Penh cabbage than sauced summer beans?"

"No......" the palace maid shook her head.

"I'll just say it!" Feng Yuchu smiled: "Of course Your Majesty prefers my ......"

"Your Majesty has eaten nothing but Phnom Penh cabbage. ”

Feng Yuchu: "......??? I have a special sentence MMP I don't know if to say it or not, can you not gasp when you speak?"

"Sure enough. Huo Sisi exclaimed: "Lord Lin, sure enough, you won, I knew just now that you would definitely win." ”

"How do you know?" Feng Yuchu grimaced, feeling very embarrassed. I swore and was full of confidence at first, but now, this face really hurts!

"Because, I tasted a little bit of the soup at the bottom of the pot. Huo Sisi's beautiful face turned red: "It tastes good." ”

"Tastes good?"

Feng Yuchu frowned, a little unconvinced, and then strode forward, stretched out his hand to wipe it in the pot used by Lin Zifan, and then licked it lightly with the tip of his tongue.

The soup was already cold, and the taste was a little worse, but even so, Imperial Chef Feng still felt a delicious taste feast explode in his mouth, and he froze for a moment.

"This ...... This tastes ......."

Seeing that the attention of several people was not on her, the palace maid took out a tael of silver and stuffed it into Lin Zifan's arms: "Lord Lin, this is your majesty's reward for you." ”

"A few imperial chefs, as well as Lord Lin, the slave maid left first. Seeing that there was nothing wrong with her, the palace maid ran away. She was afraid that if she stayed any longer, she wouldn't be able to leave.

Feng Yuchu's face was terrifying......

Moreover, I touched Lord Lin's chest, so comfortable~! The palace maid left happily......

Lin Zifan looked at the palace maid leaving Beiying with a bewildered expression, you give me silver, give me silver, what are you doing touching my chest? Also, is it popular in Datang to put things directly in people's arms? Shouldn't it be 'handed'?

The taste of Phnom Penh cabbage soup made Imperial Chef Feng stunned, and when Imperial Chef Li saw this, he was also itchy and curious, so he couldn't help but taste it, and then, her complexion changed one after another......

"What's the matter, Feng Imperial Chef, I should have won now, right?" Lin Zifan smiled and said, "But are you willing to lose?"

"Hmph! A dignified woman, a heroine, how can she be untrustworthy? I am willing to gamble and naturally accept defeat! Say, what do you want me to help you?" Feng Yuchu snorted coldly, expressing his willingness to gamble and lose.

Although her face looks quite mean, she is also a fair and upright person.

"Well said, well said. Lin Zifan smiled: "Actually, how good is it for everyone to sit down and talk well at the beginning?"

Feng Yuchu's face was very embarrassed, Lin Zifan was kind at the beginning, but she was aggressive, but now, her face is swollen, and she is really embarrassed.

"Actually, I'm not here today to compete with you, I'm not here to smash the field. Lin Zifan talked eloquently, as if the previous unpleasantness had not happened at all: "I want to develop seasonings with the three of them." ”

"Developing seasonings?" the three imperial chefs were puzzled.

"That's right, develop spices! I've seen it just now, although there are many more spices in the imperial dining room than in other places, but the variety is still too small, and it's not a good seasoning. ”

"Arrogant ......" Feng Yuchu opened his mouth, he wanted to say something more, but when he thought that Lin Zifan had made gold-edged cabbage with only a little salt, he couldn't help but shrink his neck, and he was embarrassed to say more......

Lin Zifan smiled helplessly: "Before I saw it, it was normal for you to think I was talking big, but you have also seen my cooking skills, and I won't brag about seasonings." ”

"I believe you!" Huo Sisi's expression was firm, and there was even a hint of admiration in his eyes: "A master chef like you can't brag about something related to cooking!"
