Chapter 175: Chapter 175 Chicken Essence

Chapter 175: Chapter 175 Chicken EssenceLooking at the back of the woman in blue, Emperor Yuan Jing had no expression on his face, like a cold sculpture.

There were twenty-four palaces in the inner court of the imperial palace, where Emperor Yuan Jing's concubines and children lived. Emperor Yuan Jing's harem was not lively at all, and Chuxiu Palace had not accepted young and beautiful women for more than ten years.

Wei Yuan came to the palace of the queen, the master of the harem, with ease. After being informed, he entered the palace and saw the queen sitting on the soft couch.

This queen, who was the mother of the country, had lost a lot of weight when she came in, and her round and dignified face became sharp and cute.

She was an extremely beautiful woman, nearly forty years old, but still charming. Although she had lost the liveliness and brightness of her girlhood, the years had carefully carved her connotation, and her mature and dignified charm was incomparable to ordinary girls.

"Why is Lord Wei here?" The queen smiled implicitly and stared at the face of the woman in blue. Her facial lines were tough, her nose was high, her lips were thin, her eyes were deep, and she had an indescribable vicissitude.

The frosty white at the temples made him look more mature and charming.

Wei Yuan lowered his head first: "I heard that the queen was ill?"

The queen smiled and said: "She has recovered."

"Your Majesty said that the queen has a poor appetite recently, so he asked me to come and see her."

The smile on the queen's face faded, and she looked at him calmly: "Did he ask you to come? Lord Wei, do you know if I am ill?"

Wei Yuan hesitated slightly, shook his head and said: "I have been busy with official duties recently, and I didn't know that the queen was ill."

The queen turned her face away and said in a flat tone: "I am tired."

"The queen should drink less tea, it is not good for the spleen and stomach..." Seeing the queen's impatience, Wei Yuan bowed and said: "I will leave."

"Wei Yuan!"

The queen suddenly called him.

Wei Yuan turned his back and did not look back.

"..." The queen opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but because of various concerns, she said nothing in the end.

Thousands of words were hidden in her beautiful eyes, but Wei Yuan could not see them.

Wei Yuan left the Queen's palace, and the breeze blew, and his green dress fluttered.

He really didn't know that the Queen was ill, because the spy planted nearby was removed by Emperor Yuan Jing some time ago. And the Queen didn't know about this.

These things couldn't be said in public, so he could only let the Queen misunderstand.

In front, the tall Princess Huaiqing was leading the palace maids and guards.

She was wearing a white palace skirt embroidered with bright plum blossoms, and a cloak to keep out the cold. She was cold and elegant, elegant and refined.

Very different from her mother when she was young.

"Duke Wei!" Princess Huaiqing saluted.

"Your Highness." Wei Yuan bowed in return and explained casually: "Your Majesty heard that the Queen had a poor appetite and was not feeling well, so he asked me to come and visit her on his behalf."

Princess Huaiqing said "hmm". Her father had not come to the harem for a long time. He only thought about cultivating immortality every day. He would only pay attention to which lady in the palace was sick, but usually he would just send someone to visit her.

"The maids in the palace said that my mother really hasn't eaten much recently." Huaiqing said.

"After a long illness, if you go on a hunger strike, your body will develop a root of disease." Wei Yuan frowned, but in front of Princess Huaiqing, he hid his worry very well and only expressed the concern that a minister should have.

Princess Huaiqing smiled lightly, seemingly not worried, her voice was cold and crisp, very textured: "I just planned to summon Xu Qi'an. Since I met Lord Wei here, Huaiqing will save the guards from making an extra trip."

Wei Yuan was stunned and said, "What does your highness mean by this?"

Princess Huaiqing said, "Xu Qi'an has a special secret recipe that can make food taste a hundred times better, and the taste will be unforgettable for a long time. My mother has a poor appetite, so she can try this secret recipe."

.....

Xu Qi'an paid out of his own pocket to invite Song Tingfeng and Zhu Guangxiao to listen to music in the brothel. The two colleagues finished the inheritance of life while listening to the music.

This is Xu Qi'an's compensation for them, especially Song Tingfeng, who donated a full five taels of silver to Yangshengtang. He is a playboy who has not married, and living expenses are secondary. If he has no money to go to the Jiaofangsi, he will be sad.

After leaving the brothel, Zhu Guangxiao and Song Tingfeng, who were hungry for eels and abalones, were extremely satisfied. Not long after the three of them walked, they were stopped by a horseman, who complained: "Where are you going to fish? I can't find anyone for a long time."

"What's the matter?" Xu Qiyan asked.

"Duke Wei invites you." The gong said.

The person who invited him was naturally Xu Qiyan. Song Tingfeng and Zhu Guangxiao knew their own weight, waved goodbye to their colleagues who were kind and generous, and continued their patrol.

Returning to the government office and entering the Haoqi Building, Xu Qiyan saw Wei Yuan sitting at the table reading a book.

The eunuch put down the book and said: "I heard from Huaiqing that you have a secret recipe that can enhance the flavor of the dishes."

Is Huaiqing so gossipy? Such trivial matters are also spread everywhere... Xu Qiyan was stunned for a moment, "It's a trivial skill, not worth Duke Wei's concern."

"The queen has a poor appetite recently and is weak. I want to try your recipe." Wei Yuan said

gently.

The Queen is Huaiqing's biological mother. Huaiqing asked Wei Yuan to ask me for chicken essence... Xu Qian'an nodded suddenly. Seeing that there was no one in the tea room, he took out a small jade mirror, tapped the back lightly, and a head-sized jar fell out. He reached out and caught it steadily.

The fruits of Chu Caiwei and Song Qing's labor were all here. He only left a small bottle of chicken essence for Chu Caiwei.

Wei Yuan opened the jar, sniffed it, and frowned immediately. He smelled a slightly pungent

fresh smell.

"This thing is called chicken essence." Xu Qian'an popularized science.

Chicken essence is a mixed product with monosodium glutamate and guanylate as the core ingredients. The two complement each other.

Speaking of which, the two words chicken essence are profound and have three meanings, one

of which is the seasoning you see in front of you.

Another is that the chicken has become a monster, called chicken essence. There is also a

specialty unique to men.

After closing the lid and returning the can to Xu Qi'an, Wei Yuan called the clerk: "Ask the

cook to cook a bowl of noodles."

Xu Qi'an understood and followed the clerk out.

A quarter of an hour later, Xu Qi'an came back with a bowl of egg and pork noodles and placed

it on Wei Yuan's table.

Wei Yuan nodded: "Take a bite and help me test the poison."

"..." There was only one pair of chopsticks, and Xu Qi'an took a bite with the other end.

After waiting for a while and confirming that Xiao Tongluo was not poisoned by the noodles

he brought up, Wei Yuan started to use his chopsticks.

Xu Qi'an said faintly: "Maybe the poison was smeared on the chopsticks."

Wei Yuan was stunned and said angrily: "Get out."

Xu Qi'an did not leave, but grinned. After being with Wei's father for so long, Wei Yuan was a person who would never really get angry, and his Qi cultivation skills were terrifyingly deep. Sure enough, Wei Yuan ignored him and lowered his head to eat noodles. Chewing the chewy noodles, he was a little surprised by the texture of the noodles, and had the first experience of the taste buds being hit by chicken essence. When he drank a mouthful

of the soup, Wei Yuan's eyes suddenly lit up.

"How is it?" Xu Qiyan asked expectantly. Sёarch* The nôᴠel Fire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"No matter how many chefs work hard, they can't make this taste." Wei Yuan nodded with satisfaction. The queen was used to the delicacies in the palace. In addition to her own lack of

appetite, she was also tired of the dishes in the palace.

Xu Qiyan could feel the approval in Wei's father's eyes.

Wei Yuan took out a porcelain bottle from the grid and handed it to Xu Qiyan. The latter took

it and poured some from the jar into the porcelain bottle.

Then handed it back to Wei Yuan.

Wei Yuan shook his head and didn't take it. He looked at the jar: "The bottle is for you, and

that's mine."

Xu Qiyan's expression was dull for a moment.

Dusk.

The palace maids brought stacks of delicious dishes, and the rich aroma of the dishes filled

the room. But the queen looked listless and frowned unhappily:

"I said, just prepare a bowl of porridge."

The maid whispered: "Mr. Wei just sent a secret recipe and told us to make something good

for the queen."

Another maid said hopefully: "Queen, please try it."

They have tried it, and the taste is unique and unforgettable. Having lived in the palace for so many years, she has tried all kinds of delicacies for her masters.

Only today's taste is an unprecedented taste experience, which makes people feel that the

delicacies they have eaten before are just so-so.

Hearing that it was Wei Yuan's arrangement, the queen sighed, scooped a bowl of soup with

some resistance, and tasted it with a frown.

The strong umami exploded between the taste buds, gurgle... In the slender neck, the throat

rolled, and subconsciously swallowed it.

Then, the queen drank the soup mouthful after mouthful without any resistance or disgust.

"I'm a little hungry. Serve me some rice." The queen handed the bowl to the maid and looked

at the delicious food on the table expectantly.

.....

The next day, just after the hour of Mao, the eunuchs from the queen's palace came to the night watchman's office with a batch of gold, silver and jade.

Wei Yuan met the eunuch in Haoqi Tower. This eunuch, who was obviously an old acquaintance of Wei Yuan, sat casually at the table, drinking the tea brewed by Wei Yuan

himself, and smiled:

"Where did Wei Gong find the secret recipe? The queen ate very happily last night."

Wei Yuan stared at him and asked nervously: "No anorexia? How much did you eat?"

The eunuch smiled and said, "I ate more than before, more than when I was in good health.

When I got up this morning, the queen asked about the lunch meal for the first time." Wei Yuan smiled sincerely.

Just after noon, Xu Qi'an was called to the palace by Princess Huaiqing. In the bright and

elegant room, he saw the young and mature princess whose breasts could be placed on the

table.

She was as cold, noble and beautiful as ever. If you don't look at her voluptuous figure, you will think that the princess is a white lotus on the snowy mountain, spotless.

"Today, I had lunch at my mother's place. Your recipe seems to have been improved?"

Princess Huaiqing asked.

"It's all thanks to Senior Brother Song and Miss Caiwei." Xu Qi'an said. Princess Huaiqing nodded, "I miss that taste a little, but my mother is stingy and won't give

it to me. Do you have any more?"

"No more." Xu Qi'an immediately shook his head: "I gave a full jar to Duke Wei and sent it to

the Queen Mother."

He actually had some, and a small bottle, but he couldn't give it to Huaiqing. He had to keep it

for Biao Biao.

It's not that Princess Lin'an has a high status in his heart, but Bian Bian is too noisy. The

emperor's harem is not big, and the novelty of chicken essence will sooner or later reach Lin'an. It doesn't matter, after all, it was sent by Wei Yuan.

But Princess Huaiqing knows who the real "instigator" is. With Huaiqing's black belly... then Bian Bian will be like a jealous woman, and vent her anger on Xu Qiyan.

After all, in Princess Lin'an's heart, Xu Qiyan has long since abandoned the dark and joined the

light, and became her henchman.

Princess Huaiqing frowned slightly, "But I heard that the chicken essence that Wei Yuan sent

to my mother was half a can."

"Huh?" Xu Qiyan was stunned and looked at Huaiqing. Huaiqing also looked at him, and the two of them couldn't help but fall silent.
