The Queen Doesn't Want to Die
11. What an Amazing Cuisine
The moment they reached the Lan Hua pavilion, the servants placed food on the table inside the room and stood on the side to wait for orders. Lu Jing Yu did not like to eat alone. But if when he eats someone notices him, he will feel uncomfortable. So he ordered all the servants to leave except Xiao Bei to stay with him.
Receiving the order, the servants rushed out of the room. They waited outside and waited for orders at any time.
While Xiao Bei who was left to stay there immediately did his job. Stand beside Lu Jing Yu and serve Lu Jing Yu carefully.
"That's enough. Now sit there and accompany me to eat." Lu Jing Yu stopped Xiao Bei who was about to fill his rice bowl with side dishes.
"Yes...Your Majesty the Empress please forgive me. It's totally inappropriate." Xiao Bei nervously squeezed the end of his hanfunya.
"There's no excuse. Sit down and feed me." Lu Jing Yu waved her hand. Xiao Bei was silent. Staring at Lu Jing Yu with worry.
"Come on. It's not fun eating alone. If you don't want to accompany me to eat, I better not eat either." Lu Jing Yu pushed her bowls of rice.
"Which queen can be like this. The Queen must eat. Don't let the queen get sick." Xiao Bei immediately panicked.
"If I get sick it's all your fault." Lu Jing Yu looked at Xiao Bei in annoyance. What's wrong with keeping him eating?
"Your Majesty the Empress.you gave me something difficult." Xiao Bei's face drooped.
"Is it that bad to keep me eating? Is my cooking bad?" Lu Jing Yu's eyes dropped. Blinked his eyes innocently as he glanced at Xiao Bei. He is good at taking people's hearts. And know how to get sympathy. So it was easy for him to make others as innocent and naive as Xiao Bei follow his wishes.
Xiao Bei did not get any loopholes to refuse. Moreover, the lady who since she was young followed was currently being spoiled by her that she had never met before made her helpless.
"All right, Your Majesty. I'll have His Majesty's Queen eat." Xiao Bei. He sat doubtfully across from Lu Jing Yu.
"That's great. Come eat. I haven't cooked for anyone in a long time. It may feel unsatisfactory. But it's better than the bland food here. Let's try it." Lu Jing Yu's eyes shone brightly. He took the meat with his chopsticks and placed it in Xiao Bei's bowl.
"Your Majesty, please don't do that. It is not appropriate for a servant to receive this treatment." Xiao Bei was extremely scared. Their status is very different. Like stars and mud. It was already very difficult for him to sit together at the same dining table as his Master. He would not dare to accept the treatment served by his master of very high status.
"Xiao Bei, don't humble yourself like that. We are all equally human. There's nothing different. You've been taking care of me and helping me all this time. Can't I just do this simple thing to get back at him?"
"Your Majesty, what I do is your duty. Servants are very happy to be able to serve an employer like Her Majesty the Empress. Don't talk like that to make the Servant feel that Her Majesty the Empress is dissatisfied with the servant."
"Ah done. It's up to you. Now don't waste any more time. Be eating. Cold won't be good." Lu Jing Yu rolled her eyes. Surrender. It is free to talk about equal status in the era of the kingdom like this which strongly views status based on lineage. He also cannot change the view of society on this matter. Since he could not change it, he could only adjust to not being too flashy. Or, the tragic fate he wanted to avoid would happen sooner because the charges had denounced the ancestral teachings. Hii! Lu Jing Yu shuddered.
"Well, Your Majesty! This food is really good." Xiao Bei exclaimed as he felt the tenderness of the young goat meat that was instantly crushed with a single bite. It was soaking in and full of taste.
Xiao Bei rarely ate meat. But the meat he felt this time was definitely the most delicious meat he had ever tasted before. He looked at Lu Jing Yu in astonishment. A trace of disbelief was within his eyes that were breaking. He had been following Lu Jing Yu since young. And never saw his master enter the kitchen. So where do these great skills come from? Given this, Xiao Bei so recalled Lu Jing Yu's previous words saying that he had long since been unsatisfactory to others? When had lu Jing Yu ever cooked before?
Of course Xiao Bei did not know if what Lu Jing Yu meant was that he was still in his original world. Lu Jing Yu was indeed given cooking skills. But she did not have the time to cook every time. With his busyness, he hardly ever even entered the kitchen for months except to fetch his own drinking water.
"Your Majesty, this Noble cuisine is truly delicious. But I never found out that Your Majesty can even cook."
The chopsticks in Lu Jing Yu's hand froze in the air as he heard Xiao Bei's question. "I can cook. But I'm lazy. Never mind. Continue eating again. It's not important." Lu Jing Yu hurriedly switched the conversation.
Seeing his shiny appearance they also became doubtful. They imagined the oil would smear their throats as they ate it. But after smelling the scent, they could not help but move their hands to poke the chopsticks and take the vegetables and put them on the tip of the tongue.
The head chef was the first to try. As he put the vegetables in his mouth, he closed his eyes. Prepare for a terrible taste. But as soon as the spicy, sweet and tender vegetable touched her tongue gently, the closed eyes opened wide in shock at the sensation of its taste.
The other chef noticed the change in his expression and immediately asked. "How's chef Lim? How's it feel?"
"This.. this... this is so good." The head chef called chef Lim chewed it quickly and filled his bowl with a pile of vegetables. Then without further ado eat it quickly.
Chef Lim's eyes stared at the meat dishes filled with seasonings. Since he had already tasted the delicious vegetable stir-fry, he no longer doubted its unequal appearance and immediately took out a piece of meat and put it in his mouth.
Smelter. That was what Koki Lim first felt as he bit the mutton. Then the savory taste he had never felt before broke in his mouth. A rich blend of spices made his tongue crackle. His eyes opened and closed feeling a sense of taste that he had never felt. Again he filled his bowl.
"Enak. So yummy. This is the most delicious food I have ever tasted in my life. If I die now of any satiety I will be happy and will never regret." Chef Lim continued to babble and pick up again and again.
Seeing chef Lim enjoying his meal so much, the other chefs and the waiters couldn't help but gulp down their saliva. Immediately, dozens of chopsticks swarmed into the bowl and dishes. They did not hesitate anymore and put it in their mouths.
Their reaction was no worse than that of the bewildering chef Lim. They were even more surprised there was such a good taste in this world. When they know it tastes good, they want to take it again but all they find are empty plates and bowls. Now they regret not taking it from the start and seeing chef Lim's bowl filled with envy.
"What?" Chef Lim gave everyone a look at him. He immediately hid his bowl behind his large body. Afraid they'll steal delicious food over his bowl.
The chefs looked at each other in wonder. Chef Lim was the best chef in Han Yuan's restaurant before. And he could be included in this list of the ten best chefs in the empire. And he rarely praised the cooking of others. He was always arrogant because of his ability. But seeing his reaction at the moment, chef Lim was really far from his arrogant character.
"Didn't Her Majesty say that there was still a spice to burn fish? Let's make it. It must be delicious too, right?" One of the chefs remembered this important point. He immediately picked up the bowl and walked over to pick up fresh fish.
The servants took the other fish and cleaned them. They gathered together and burned the fish. Even the butler joined in on the fun. They glanced displeased at him. But no one dared to throw him out.
Charcoal immediately ignited. It was naturally made longer by the large amount of fish being roasted on it. In an instant, the pleasant smell of grilled fish filled the entire air of the residence.
This scent was what Pei Zhang Xi had obtained when he had just returned home to enter the residence of King Rui. His nose, and the noses of some people behind him could not help but turn into anj5Ng noses in an instant.
