1625 Negotiating Conditions with You
Gu Xiaowan did not hide her relationship with Jinfulou. The emperor already knew so much. Thinking about it, what he knew would definitely not be less than what he expected!
"The shopkeeper of Jinfu Tower cherishes the restaurant the most. He often forgets to eat and sleep, and he doesn't forget to study new recipes and introduce new dishes with the women. Let me ask, if he has a grudge with the deceased, he can teach him a lesson elsewhere. A meal or a murder, why bother to ruin himself and the foundation he has worked so hard to save all his life in Jinfulou, the place he cherishes most?"
Nobody is stupid enough to kill on their own turf and be seen in full view.
Shu Tianci knew it, and everyone in the world knew it.
However, everyone only believes what they see with their own eyes, and no one will say anything.
"Did you know that one of the four deceased was the nephew of the current grand master? The grand master was extremely defensive, and would kill the murderer for any actions that hurt his family members!"
"Minnv knows that if she were a minnv, she would do the same thing, but it's against murderers! Not innocent people!" Gu Xiaowan raised her head, and there seemed to be a brilliance in her round eyes, faintly Flowing, pure like a clear lake with no trace of blue waves.
Shu Tianci was a little moved. Although he is the Ninth Five-Year Master, he would never kill innocent people. People are raised by their parents. If they are innocent, why take their lives and make their parents worry?
Everyone in this world is his subject, if he treats the maids and servants around him by beating and killing whenever he wants, how will he treat all the people in the world?
If you are not kind enough to those around you, how can you help the world?
He did not continue Gu Xiaowan's words, but said suddenly: "I heard that you are very good at cooking, and you always have some weird recipes in your mind. Otherwise, I will negotiate with you on a condition. If I eat to my satisfaction, I will grant you a wish, no matter what the wish is, I will grant you, how about it?"
Grant a wish?
Whatever the wish?
Gu Xiaowan's heart moved, and she hurriedly kowtowed to thank Tianen: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Soon, Eunuch Qi took her to the back kitchen of the Hall of Mental Cultivation. Apart from the imperial dining room, the emperor also had his own small kitchen. On weekdays, he made some soup and supper, etc., in the small kitchen. Yes, the chef in charge of the spoon in this small kitchen is naturally the first-class chef in the imperial dining room.
The food that the emperor eats on weekdays is also exquisite and exquisite. If she wants to make something that satisfies the emperor, she can't work hard on it. After all, she is not a serious cook, and she can't make so many beautiful dishes Beautiful decoration.
Eunuch Qi emptied out the people in the kitchen, and came to Gu Xiaowan. Seeing her frowning and wanting to eat, looking extremely serious, he couldn't help but want to help, and said: "Your Majesty has a strong taste, and I like spicy food. Food!"
Upon hearing this, Gu Xiaowan immediately had an idea in her mind, her eyes lit up like stars in the sky: "Eunuch Qi, can I trouble you to send someone to help me find a barbed wire shelf, and then find dozens of thin Thin bamboo strips?"
There are quite a lot of these things. After Qi Gonggong sent people to find them all, they brought them to the kitchen, and saw Gu Xiaowan busy cutting beef, mutton and pork into small pieces, sweet potatoes, lotus roots, etc. into slices. In addition, There are also some bottles and jars, the contents of which are familiar to Eunuch Qi, they are nothing more than seasonings used in the imperial dining room on weekdays.
Seeing that Gu Xiaowan's meat-cutting hands were covered with blood, but she acted like a normal person, holding the knife, carefully cut the meat into equal sizes, and looked at the cut sweet potato and lotus root slices, which were also of uniform thickness , It can be seen that he also looks like a person who often cooks on weekdays.
Wearing a sky-blue dress, with the sleeves rolled up, on her white jade-like wrist, the cream-like white jade bracelet lightly touched the chopping board, making a pleasant ding-dong sound or two. Holding a knife, he is carefully preparing the materials to be used later.
I don't know why, but Eunuch Qi suddenly felt sad. Once upon a time, when he was still a child, he would stand beside a stove that was taller than him, watching his mother cook, and would gently kiss him on the cheek from time to time. , secretly took out a piece of the prepared dish, blew it cold, put it in his mouth, and asked him with a smile, is it good?
However, after his mother died and his family broke up, he became an orphan without father and mother, wandering in the world alone.
With scant clothes and sleeping in the open in the wind, how do you know the taste of food?
Later, he entered the palace and became a eunuch, and followed His Majesty who was still a prince at that time. Together with His Majesty, one became the most honorable Ninth Five-Year Lord in the whole world, and the other became the one who wanted to be a eunuch in the whole world. most coveted man.
Now, he has eaten delicious food all over the world, but he can no longer find the taste of the food stuffed into his mouth dotingly when his mother hugged him back then.
"Eunuch Qi..." After Gu Xiaowan cut a plate of diced meat and skewered all the meat and vegetarian food with bamboo sticks, she turned her head and saw Eunuch Qi standing behind her, a little dazed.
"Eunuch Qi..." Gu Xiaowan yelled again.
Only then did Eunuch Qi come to his senses, knowing that he had lost his composure, he said in embarrassment, "I'm sorry, County Lord Anping, Zajia just now..."
"Seeing how the county magistrate is so familiar with chopping vegetables, did you often cook before?" Eunuch Qi asked with a smile, "Your parents are so lucky that they can still eat the meals cooked by the county magistrate himself!"
Eunuch Qi didn't investigate Gu Xiaowan's life experience, and he only knew that she lived in the countryside since she was a child, and later received a great gift from heaven to get the title of Anping County Lord.
Later I heard this
The Anping County Lord is proficient in poetry, poetry, and Fu, and today, seeing the true face of this County Lord, Qi Gong recognizes it. Even if this County Lord lived in the countryside before, the conditions at home must not be good Difference.
Otherwise, how could we raise such a daughter who is full of poetic and bookish spirit and outstanding temperament?
Anping county magistrate's temperament is probably one of the best in the entire capital. If one doesn't know her true identity, she will really mistakenly think that she comes from a noble family.
After Gu Xiaowan heard Eunuch Qi's words, there was a trace of sadness in her eyes: "My parents passed away when I was six years old!"
