Chapter 416

These days, ah Zhao follows the Empress Dowager and knows the preferences of the Empress Dowager and the little emperor. The Empress Dowager used to have only one requirement for diet: don't fry too much.

Basically, she eats whatever the kitchen does.

But now she likes the food cooked by Ye Xiaoxian.

Not to mention the little emperor, as long as ye Xiaoxian didn't cook the food, he didn't eat it at all.

However, at the Mid Autumn Festival party, he could not let Ye Xiaoxian only cook the dishes of the Empress Dowager and the little emperor.

So he asked the Empress Dowager if he could let Ye Xiaoxian be the chef and let others taste what ye Xiaoxian did. In this way, there will be surprises and he can make contributions to the Mid Autumn Festival.

The Empress Dowager agreed without hesitation.

She is not afraid of tired Ye Xiaoxian. She just wants to see how much energy Ye Xiaoxian, the general's wife, has.

When a Zhao informed Ye Xiaoxian, ye Xiaoxian didn't refuse.

She asked carefully. There were only about two hundred people at the dinner party. She didn't cook the food for two hundred people alone. She had a kitchen helper. She just had to command herself.

So ah Zhao happily handed over cooking to Ye Xiaoxian.

On the evening of the Mid Autumn Festival, Empress Dowager Xiao held a banquet in the palace. Many royal relatives, ministers and officials attended the banquet.

But ye Xiaoxian was busy in the back kitchen and didn't go to the front hall.

After all the food was served out, she made several moon cakes with the rest of the ingredients.

Beiqing people also eat moon cakes, but most of their fillings are lotus seed, while ye Xiaoxian makes five kernels. Da Qi will eat them like this. Dongdong and Xiaoxia also like to eat them.

After the moon cakes were finished, she took the plate of moon cakes to the back garden. She sat on the disk and enjoyed the moon while eating the moon cakes.

Of course, she didn't know. The people in the front hall were surprised when they ate the food she cooked.

Beiqing's life is rough, and the food style is the same. They like big bowls of wine and meat. But they are also surprised to see such exquisite dishes here this year.

These people don't lack meat. They eat meat at home and outside. If they still eat big meat for the Mid Autumn Festival dinner, they will inevitably feel that there is no new idea and can only be completed once.

But tonight's food is so exquisite that they have to pay part of their attention to the food, see the shape of the food, taste the taste of the food, and then praise it.

Empress Dowager Xiao and a Zhao and others saw everyone's reaction and knew that they liked the meal, so they were also very satisfied.

……

Ye Xiaoxian is enjoying the moon and eating moon cakes in the back garden, thinking about winter and summer.

Suddenly, a voice came from behind: "are you Wuren moon cakes?"

Ye Xiaoxian was startled. Looking back, she saw a Weian man in his forties. He was noble and cold.

Ye Xiaoxian wanted to put away the moon cakes, but she knew it was late.

Now that he had seen it, she simply handed one of the moon cakes to the man in front of her: "yes, Wuren, would you like to try one?"

The man's eyes stayed on the moon cake for a second or two, then he took it and said to Ye Xiaoxian, "thank you!"

"You're welcome."

Ye Xiaoxian thought the man wouldn't eat it, but he took the moon cake as a treasure. First he took a small bite, tasted the taste, and then took a big bite.

Then, he actually wolfed down, as if he had been hungry for a long time. At the end, his eyes burst into tears.

"You... Slow down and don't choke." Ye Xiaoxian felt that he must not have been hungry for a long time, but she felt that she had to persuade him.

The man licked his finger after eating.

Ye Xiaoxian quickly handed him another moon cake, and then said to him, "I still have it here. Do you want it?"

The man took the moon cake, but this time he didn't hurry to eat it, but said to her, "you haven't answered my question."

"What... What's the problem?" Asked Ye Xiaoxian.

"Are you a big prayer?"

"No." Ye Xiaoxian lied.

The man said, "I'm a big prayer."

Ye Xiaoxian: "

"So, I know you are also a big prayer."

"..." Ye Xiaoxian felt that she had been exposed. She didn't admit it, so she should acquiesce.

"Why are you here?" The man asked again.

Ye Xiaoxian asked him, "what about you? Why are you here?"

"I was caught." Men are very sincere.

Ye Xiaoxian looked around. There was no one around. Their conversation should not be heard by a third person.

So she asked, "were you caught? Then why didn't you go out and run around instead of being locked up?"

"Because I'm a county horse." The man said again, "my name is Li Yujin."

"Surname Li?" Knowing that the person of Daqi royal family was surnamed Li, ye Xiaoxian asked, "are you the son of Daqi royal family?"

"Da Qi is Li Chengru's emperor now, isn't he?" Li Yujin asked, "do you know him?"

Ye Xiaoxian asked, "who are you, Li Chengru?"

"It's uncle Huang." Li Yujin said.

Ye Xiaoxian was a little surprised. Then she said "Oh", and then asked, "Why are you here? How did you become a county horse?"

"I stayed in Beiqing for more than 20 years. I used to be a proton. Later, there was civil strife in Beiqing. My imperial brother became the emperor. I seem to have been forgotten. Coupled with the replacement of the emperor twice later, I'm afraid the Royal people have long forgotten me."

"More than twenty years?" Ye Xiaoxian was a little surprised. She asked, "how old was Li Chengru at that time? He may not remember your uncle?"

Li Yujin asked, "it sounds like you know Li Chengru very well. When did you arrive in Beiqing?"

Ye Xiaoxian also didn't trust Li Yujin very much. She said, "I've been here for a few months. I've heard about Li Chengru. As a people of great prayer, which one doesn't know him?"

Li Yujin looked at Ye Xiaoxian and smiled faintly: "no, you should know him well."

"...." Ye Xiaoxian thought, can you see this?

Li Yujin didn't continue to ask, but looked up at the bright moon in the sky: "the moon doesn't change every year, but I'm getting older and older year by year. I'm afraid there's no hope to pray back in my life."

Ye Xiaoxian knows that he is homesick and hasn't gone back for more than 20 years. She must miss her hometown very much. No wonder he just ate moon cakes so quickly that tears came down.

However, she still asked him, "you just said, are you the county horse master?"

Li Yujin nodded.

"Since it's the county horse master, you must have married here. Your princess... How are you?" Asked Ye Xiaoxian.

Li Yujin looked at Ye Xiaoxian and asked, "do you want to persuade me to cherish the people in front of me?"

Ye Xiaoxian nodded.
