Naturally, Xu Hui and Zheng Wanli didn't know that they had almost experienced a life-and-death disaster. They walked through the guards and cautiously entered Li Mingda's living room.
The living room was brightly lit, and the incense burner burned sandalwood to repel insects.
There are two guest tables in the living room, with four maids standing beside them.
Li Mingda was sitting in the center, Wu Xu was waiting at his side, the breeze and the bright moon were beside him, and the vast sea and autumn water were guarding outside.
This was the first time for the two of them to see Li Mingda so close to each other. He was not a big person, and he was sitting there. The pressure of a superior person made the two people who had never seen such an imposing manner breathless.
The two of them secretly argued that this kind of momentum is much stronger than that of my father who was an official when they were waiting for him. Her Royal Highness Princess Jinyang is indeed domineering and well-deserved.
"Country girl Xu Hui pays homage to Her Royal Highness the Princess, may she be blessed with peace and happiness"
"People's daughter Zheng Wanli pays homage to Her Royal Highness the Princess, may she be blessed with peace and happiness"
Li Mingda raised his hand and said: "Get up, wait for the two of you on the left and right and sit down."
"Thank you, Your Highness Princess"
The two of them thanked me and sat down. Their faces seemed to have no reaction. In fact, inside I was like a little rabbit playing around.
Gudonggudonggudonggudong
Zheng Wanli, who was slightly younger, felt that she had forgotten everything she had prepared. She grabbed the teacup on the guest table, her little hands shaking.
Zheng Wanli forcibly cheered herself up: "Zheng Wanli, you can't be embarrassed. This is the first time I've met Her Royal Highness Princess Jinyang. If I'm rejected because I'm not stable enough, the so-called talented girl and all that are just a joke. They will only be here." A laughing stock in history.
Zheng Wanli: You can do it, you must be steady.
Zheng Wanli relied on her own perseverance to pick up the teacup and took a slow sip.
So fragrant, sweet and delicious (*＾-＾*)
After taking a sip of tea, Zheng Wanli felt much better.
Compared with Zheng Wanli and Xu Hui, it is better, but it is also limited. As a talented girl among the ladies, she has never seen such a domineering person except her own father, although she is much younger than herself.
She looked at Zheng Wanli's nervous expression opposite her, and her otherwise okay state was instantly distorted.
I was so nervous that the little rabbit kept jumping around.
Watching Zheng Wanli pick up the tea cup, she seemed to feel much calmer after taking a sip, and she also picked it up and tried it herself.
So fragrant, sweet and delicious (*＾-＾*)
Li Mingda looked at their performance and asked them with a smile: "Do you two have good tea?"
Zheng Wanli: "Delicious"
Xu Hui: “Delicious”
"Then drink more"
"yes"
The scene was a little embarrassing, and Li Mingda felt that he almost chatted to death.
Xu Hui and Zheng Wanli had never seen such an awkward conversation, so they could only continue to drink tea with their heads down.
Wu Xu on the side is used to it. Li Mingda often does this. At first, he was not used to it. Later, after being exposed to it more, he naturally became casual.
bang bang
Wu Xu stretched out his hand and patted it twice: "Let's have a banquet."
Maid: "Yes"
At this moment, Wu Xu instantly felt that he was much more important than Murong Xue, seeing that our rescue was successful.
Li Mingda patted Wu Jue on the head: "The reaction is quite fast."
Wu Xu's face turned red: "No way" (#^.^#)
Wu Luo is so cute. Fortunately, I had the wisdom to take her under my command, and now I have such a cute Wu Xu. Otherwise, if Wu Xu had experienced family changes, I don’t know how dark he would be.
Not long after, the maids brought in some rare ingredients, such as venison, tiger and leopard, bear paws, plus special ingredients that Li Mingda ordered to make. Xu Hui and Zheng Wanli were stunned by the sight alone.
Never seen it
Can the plates be placed like this?
this taste
My family's conditions are not bad, but the taste of this food is very different.
(Drooling
Zheng Wanli and Xu Hui swallowed.
Li Mingda gritted his teeth. As a member of the flavor food empire, he and Murong Xue had chosen the flavor of the dish after a long discussion. For this purpose, they secretly processed natural MSG.
Everyone is using MSG now, but most of them don’t know its origin. It was originally found on seaweed, which is also known as kelp.
Another official name is glutamic acid. This is why kelp stew has a fresh taste.
Li Mingda looked at the performance of the two people and was very satisfied. In this era, what people usually pursue is just a full meal. The needs of the officials' families are higher. Li Mingda only sent the MSG to two places. First, The first one is the palace, and the second one is the restaurant and hotel, which is one of its subordinate properties.
"You two, these are specially prepared for you two, let's get started."
Xu Hui: "How can this be done? Princess, you are the master."
Zheng Wanli: "Yes, please go first, Your Royal Highness"
Li Mingda shook his head: "You are young, so you are not allowed to eat too much like this. You can eat. I mainly drink porridge and milk."
Xu Hui: "..."
Zheng Wanli: "..."
Wu Xu covered his face and smiled secretly. It was not that Li Mingda didn't want to eat, because when preparing the ingredients in the afternoon, as a member of the great food empire, he had already eaten and drank a lot in the name of testing the freshness of the ingredients.
Among them, Wu Xu also followed, and neither of them were hungry.
Li Mingda saw that Xu Hui and Zheng Wanli were really waiting for him, so he had no choice but to pick up the chopsticks, take a bite of food into his mouth and said, "Please take a bite."
Only then did Xu Hui and Zheng Wanli begin to taste it with their small mouths.
When the two took the first bite, they found that the taste was extraordinary, the meat was delicious and juicy, not too much, not too little, and the flavor lingered in your teeth after you pressed it.
I have never eaten such delicious food.
Is this the difference between the imperial kitchen and your own home?
No wonder so many people sacrifice their lives and blood for fame, fortune and status, even if they spend their entire lives.
Power is a killing knife, but how many people think they are the ones holding the handle of the knife.
The two of them ate in silence and waited for Li Mingda's exam. Li Mingda prioritized drinking milk tea and letting his strong stomach continue to digest food.
Wu Xu actually wanted to give Xu Hui and Zheng Wanli a memorable test to declare her status in the princess palace, but she did not dare to go beyond it. She was smart and knew that competing for favors also depended on the occasion. At this time, she was soliciting When it comes to people and wealth, competing for favors has to wait until someone enters the mansion.
Learn through hard work
fight for beauty
fight for wisdom
Li Mingda doesn't like scheming people. In the past two years, the Princess Mansion has seen more people working for various purposes. Those who are pragmatic have been assigned good positions and are treated well.
No one who played tricks on Li Mingda could get out alive. Even though Li Mingda was young, no one in the entire mansion dared to say anything after the order was given, even Murong Xue who had been squatting next to Li Mingda.
Wu Xu has been smart since he was a child. Although she can't see through it, he knows what he should and shouldn't do. He has already suffered the consequences of his scheming once and doesn't want it to happen again.
Full of wine and food
Xu Hui and Zheng Wanli put down their bowls and chopsticks and eagerly waited for Li Mingda's words.
Li Mingda also felt that it was almost done, and he finished his cup of milk tea: "After eating and drinking, let's talk about business. If you two want to spend your life in the courtyard, you still want to enter the court and show your talents."
