The palace is really big, and it's easy for unfamiliar people to get lost.

Dongfang Xiuzhe walked slowly on the stone-paved road, curiously looking at the buildings on the left and right.

At this time, the sun in the east has begun to rise, and there are many busy figures up and down the palace, and some palace maids who are cleaning have walked past Dongfang Xiuzhe from time to time.

Although many people were curious about why there was a teenager walking here unscrupulously, in the spirit of thinking that more things are better than less, no one came forward to interrogate them.

"The walls here are so high, I really don't know if it was built so high to pretend to be magnificent, or to prevent someone from climbing over the wall!"

Looking at the orange-red wall that was several meters high, Dongfang Xiuzhe thought with some amusement.

"This sister, may I ask, where is the queen's bedroom?"

Dongfang Xiuzhe asked with a smile at an oncoming palace maid.

However, his question was exchanged for the strange eyes of the palace maid, and he ran away without saying a word.

"Forget it, go wherever you go!"

Originally, Dongfang Xiuzhe wanted to inquire about the location of the queen's bedroom by the way, so as to get the third key and map, but seeing that the people here were all vigilant about themselves, they didn't want to waste any more time.

Anyway, there is still a period of time before it gets dark, and when the time comes, just find someone who is familiar with the terrain and use the "Soul Searching Method", and any problem will be solved.

According to Dongfang Xiuzhe's current speed of action, if he wants to walk the entire palace again, he will not have a month to achieve it.

He was walking aimlessly when suddenly, the smell of rice wafted through the air, attracting his attention.

"Gollum!"

There was a wail in my stomach, and I was already very hungry.

Sticking out his tongue and licking his lips, Dongfang Xiuzhe followed the aroma of the rice and walked in the direction of the imperial kitchen.

Inside the Imperial Kitchen at this time. Celebrity chefs from all over the country are busy preparing a sumptuous breakfast for today's majesty.

Clusters of white gas kept coming out of the big kitchen in front of him, and Dongfang Xiuzhe's saliva was about to flow down.

As soon as I approached this somewhat luxurious kitchen, a fat steward came out of it.

The moment this steward saw Dongfang Xiuzhe, he was obviously stunned, and asked, "Which hall are you from?"

"New here!"

Dongfang Xiuzhe blurted out, his eyes couldn't help but look at the busy figure inside, when he saw that the dishes with all colors and flavors were loaded into delicate plates. I couldn't hold back my appetite anymore, and I was ready to step in.

"Hey, why don't you know the rules at all, are you here casually?"

The steward looked up and down at the somewhat reckless young man in front of him, pouted and said secretly: "Why are the new little eunuchs, one is more stupid than the other, what is going on next, look at his greedy appearance, as if he has never eaten in eight lifetimes." ”

"I'm hungry now. Gotta get a bite to eat inside, don't get in the way!"

Food has always been the weakness of Dongfang Xiuzhe, and now his eyes are all filled with those sumptuous foods.

"Bold. This is a royal feast, that thou shalt eat it, and go and go, and report it where thou shalt go. Entangle here again, be careful with the board. ”

The steward was impatient, and he did have too much to attend to.

The steward had thought that the boy would leave. So he didn't take it too seriously, and just when he was about to go about his own business, he looked back and was so angry that he almost scolded.

The boy ignored his warning and went straight into the kitchen.

What kind of place is the kitchen, it is a place dedicated to cooking for His Majesty, as well as concubines, princes, and princes, and if there is any mistake, a large number of people will be involved, and this steward will not be able to escape his responsibility.

Three steps and two steps, the steward chased into the kitchen, but it was full of steam, the visibility was very low, and there were so many items here, it was not easy to find the young man.

"Someone, get me the guy who just broke in!" shouted the steward angrily.

At this time, Dongfang Xiuzhe was eating with relish with a plate of food in his hand, and he was simply deaf to the turmoil around him.

His entire attention seemed to be focused on the food.

The kitchen was already in a mess, and the more these people tried to catch the intruding teenager, the harder it became.

No one expected that this young man's movements would be so agile, and he would be able to escape with ease under the encirclement network composed of many of them.

Dongfang Xiuzhe didn't want to fight these chefs, otherwise, he could have stopped everyone forever in one breath.

Plate after plate of freshly cooked dishes was wiped out in his hands.

The riots here quickly attracted the attention of the patrolling guards.

For the chef who cooks, Dongfang Xiuzhe will be merciful, but for the guards who come with weapons, they are not so easy to speak.

"Stop!"

Seeing that bloodshed was about to start, a loud shout suddenly came from outside.

There was not much time, and a general holding a gold medal from His Majesty ran in in a hurry, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that the battle between the two sides had not yet begun.

This general, Dongfang Xiuzhe has seen, it was in the study that one of the people who was stunned by Dongfang Xiuzhe, and he still had a great prejudice against Dongfang Xiuzhe at that time.

But at this moment, he looked at Dongfang Xiuzhe's eyes, full of fear.

It's no wonder that he is like this, even His Majesty is afraid of this young man, let alone a courtier like him.

"Spread the word of His Majesty, this ...... Any request of this young lord must be fulfilled unconditionally, and the violator ......"

When the general finished reading His Majesty's message, everyone was stunned and looked at the young man in front of him who was not at all popular with a strange look.

In everyone's hearts, they are speculating about the identity of this teenager, and many people even think that this teenager is likely to be the illegitimate son of His Majesty.

"This dish is more to my taste, make me another fifty servings!"

At this moment, Dongfang Xiuzhe suddenly pointed to the plate in his hand and said.

"What are you still doing in a daze, if you don't do it, do you want to resist the order?" The general saw that the chef was still stunned, and hurriedly shouted again.

The people here don't know how terrible this young man is, but he has witnessed it very clearly.

This young man dared to make a move against His Majesty, and what else did he dare not do. If you annoy him, there is a good chance that the entire palace will be bleeding.

With the emperor's dictation, Dongfang Xiuzhe's breakfast was very enjoyable.

He was having fun, but some were not happy.

"Why didn't you come up so late today?" In the room, Jin Qixiu asked with some displeasure.

He didn't eat much yesterday, mainly because of the gambling with several other princes, and he lost ugly, so he woke up hungry early this morning.

I wanted to have a good meal, but I waited for almost an hour, but I still didn't see the food served.

"Your Highness. I've just called someone to inquire, saying that there is a distinguished guest who ate the breakfast carefully prepared by the chefs, and now the chefs are starting anew?"

A palace maid replied softly.

"Nonsense, what kind of distinguished guests can eat so much, it must be those guys who are making a stalk from it!"

Thinking of the other princes who had been making trouble for him during this time, Jin Qixiu was angry.

Since he returned from the "Heavenly Forest" that day, he has not had a happy day. Not to mention being punished by his father, he was also ordered by his mother to prohibit him from leaving the palace again, and the most annoying thing was that several other princes colluded with each other to make trouble for him.

"Your Highness," just as Jin Qixiu was about to take a look at the imperial kitchen in person. Another palace maid came to report, "Your Highness, the Seventh Highness, the Ninth Highness, and the Eleventh Highness have come down." ”

"No, tell them. I'm not feeling well today!" Kim Qixiu said resentfully.

"But ......"

"Do as I say!"

The palace maid was about to go down to carry it out, but at this moment, a somewhat mocking laughter came from outside the door: "Brother Dare to love the emperor is not feeling well today." It just so happens that I am waiting for a few brothers to visit, is it that the imperial brother has lost too ugly in the past few days, and he is in a hurry!"

"Then you have to ask the imperial doctor to take a good look, how to do this psychological endurance, it's too embarrassing for the royal family. ”

"Who said no, you have to treat it well, if you lose again, you will be laughed at and generous!"

As the voice sounded, Jin Qixiu's three elder brothers walked in from the outside, ignoring the palace maids' obstruction.

"What are you doing here?"

Jin Qixiu snorted coldly, he didn't have a good impression of these royal brothers who joined forces to deal with him.

"Of course, I'm here to see you, the emperor, how about it, do you dare to compete again?"

"I'm not in the mood today!" Jin Qixiu snorted coldly.

"What's not in the mood, I don't dare, right?"

"I also boasted that I had met a lot of capable people, but they were all rubbish, not that I said that you are the emperor's brother, your vision is too bad. ”

"Who said no, and boasted that he was a rare master, but it turned out that an ordinary guard beside me was beaten lightly and vomited blood, this cowhide is really blowing!"

"Brother Huang, it's not for my brother to say you, it's right to ban you from the palace, lest you embarrass our royal family, and get acquainted with garbage and waste, and you are still entertaining yourself there after being made up!"

"Who bragged to you, the capable people I know are much better than your dogskin guards!" Jin Qixiu was a little anxious and retorted.

Don't look at his young age, but he still has self-esteem!

"Oh, yes, where, please come out and let us see!"

"If it's still a garbage thing that even my guards can't win, don't come out and be embarrassed again. ”

Several princes were ridiculed again.

Jin Qixiu was so angry that his face turned blue and he wanted to refute, but he didn't know what to say, after all, he had lost ugly in the past few days.

"Your Highness," at this moment, a palace maid walked in from outside with some hesitation, handed a token to Jin Qitou, and said, "Your Highness, there is a young man who holds this token and asks to see you!" (To be continued......)
