Chapter 23 (1/2)
On another day, lunch was delivered in the hall of nourishing the heart. The dishes are rich and colorful, which makes people salivate when they hear it, and sigh a good mouthful.
The king of Qin was used to these things. He looked ordinary and could be choosy.
”The fish is not very fresh today.” Ji Yue put down her chopsticks and evaluated the food.
Wei Lian smell speech, put a piece of fish in his mouth, did not feel peculiar smell: ”minister feel OK?”
Ji Yue: ”I feel alone.”
Wei Lian: OK.
You're the king. You're right.
Wei Lian knew that the king of Qin was so picky about food that he thought it was not good, so he refused to give a word.
”Take it away and let the Royal dining room do it again.” Wei Lian gave orders to the palace people.
He got a good face in front of the king of Qin, and he was able to use the people of Yangxin hall.
In response, the palace man came back a moment later. Instead of bringing a new fish, he brought a man.
The man, looking at his clothes, should be the cook in the imperial dining room.
Ji Yue smiles: ”does this mean to call a solitary eater?”
The first time the cook came back to face the saint, he was trembling. Hearing this, he knelt down on the spot, shaking like chaff: ”Your Majesty, spare your life!”
He had only heard the rumor of his majesty. He heard that he was killing people like a dog and had a violent temper. He might have been thrown into the oil pan and fried at the command of his majesty.
Ji Yue has no expression.
What are you afraid of doing? He doesn't eat human flesh.
he killed a lot of people, except for all the assassin's eyeliner in the palace, and some of the following offended people who had really killed innocent people.
There's no need to embarrass a cook.
Seeing Ji's smile disappearing gradually, Wei Lian can't help laughing. He covered his lips and chuckled, ”get up. Your majesty doesn't eat people. ”
The cook did not dare to look up, but heard a clear and warm voice, such as the breeze on his face.
It should be the recently popular young master Lian.
If the young master is really favored by his majesty, he dare to let him get up before he speaks. It can be said that he is bold. The cook's stomach Fei, but also dare not really listen to Wei Lian's words.
The young master is favored by his majesty, but he will not be investigated if he acts for his majesty. But if he gets up without his Majesty's command, he will be dead in the next moment.
Ji more see cook not move, voice low cold: ”did not hear childe's words?”
The cook was surprised, and then got up: ”thank you, Mr. Xie.”
It seems that he has underestimated the importance of Childe's keeping in your Majesty's mind.
Wei Lian didn't care that the cook just ignored him. Everyone cherished his life. The cook didn't believe that he was human. ”What do you want to report?” he asked
The cook didn't dare not to answer Wei Lian's words any more, and bowed down and said, ”the slave is Wang Shou, the chef in the imperial dining room. Your majesty wants to make fresh fish, but the ingredients in the palace have to be bought every day to ensure the freshness. Today's fish It's the freshest. There's really no spare in the dining room. ”
Even if there is, it is also every night, died for a long time, for palace people to eat. How dare he present it to your majesty.
When explaining the situation to the people in the Yangxin palace, they were afraid that she would be punished if she went back empty handed, so they invited him to denounce him.
Wang Shou said with a stiff head and lowered his head to wait for the fall. He can't help it, but the people at the top can't understand the difficulties of the servants. If there is any punishment, he can only recognize it.
Ji Yue listened and said nothing. He is not a tyrannical monarch. He waves to make people retreat.
However, Wang Shou thought that the king of Qin was waving to be dragged down to death, and his face turned pale and his heart turned grey.
Wei Lian suddenly said, ”I know there is a place where there are fresh carp.”
Ji Yue looked sideways: ”Oh?”
Wei Lian said with a smile: ”I will take you down.”
Ji Yue's eyebrows raised: ”what are you waiting for? Take the orphan to have a look. ”
Wei Lian: ”No
Two people said to leave, the cook immediately stayed in place, no one asked. He hesitated and didn't know what to do. Li Fuquan turned around and winked at him, meaning, ”what are you still doing here? You don't have to step back. ”
