"The food and medicinal materials have also been purchased, and they are being brought into the capital one after another without being discovered." Xiao Mingxian added.
He used all the money Bai Lingyue gave him to buy food and medicinal materials, and he added some more because he felt Bai Lingyue's plan was reliable.
"Well, that's called being prepared."
Bai Lingyue heard a lot of good news today and was in an extremely good mood.
"Your Majesty, do you want to eat hot pot?" When she was in a good mood, she wanted to make something delicious.
"What is hot pot?" Xiao Mingxian didn't know this thing.
"It's a very delicious food. If the prince wants to eat it, I will cook it for you right away. When you feel good, your hands will itch." Bai Lingyue's little face exuded a charming light.
"I think." Although I don't know what it is, what the girl suggested must be delicious.
"Is Mr. Buran here? He also said he wanted to eat." Bai Lingyue thought of Mr. Buran when she talked about eating. This man helped her a lot.
"I'm afraid he doesn't have such a good taste." Xiao Mingxian said coldly from the side. Why did Bai Lingyue feel a sour smell in the air.
Is the prince jealous again? She has no interest in Mr. Buran, and there is no way she can rob him. The prince is really petty.
"My lord, it's just that Mr. Buran has helped me a few times, so I just want to thank him. I have no other intention." Bai Lingyue explained to Xiao Mingxian and told him not to be angry. Mr. Buran is still his.
Xiao Mingxian didn't speak, and Bai Lingyue didn't know whether she should go to the kitchen or go home.
"Xiao Fei, take Miss Bai to the kitchen." At this time, Xiao Mingxian spoke.
Xiao Fei hurriedly came in and took Bai Lingyue to the kitchen.
"Miss Bai, I'm so sorry. I forgot that you are a little girl." Xiao Fei walked beside Bai Lingyue and apologized to her a little embarrassedly.
"That won't work. I have to carry you out for a walk." Bai Lingyue didn't let go. Just now Xiao Fei held her collar and almost suffocated her to death.
"Auntie, just do it, okay? If you are so small and you are carrying me, I can't even straighten my legs, can I?"
Xiao Fei begged Bai Lingyue. He knew that for many things, he could only ask Bai Lingyue, and it was useless to ask the prince.
Bai Lingyue rolled her eyes, then lowered her head and said to Xiao Fei: "It's not impossible for me to spare you. Then tell me, why didn't I see Mr. Buran once when I came to the palace? He Where did you go?"
Xiao Fei... forget it, let's be carried around by Miss Bai!
"What's wrong? Is the prince so overbearing? He won't let Mr. Buran come out to meet guests?" Bai Lingyue thought of this reason when she saw Xiao Fei hesitating.
"No, no, no, our prince is not domineering towards the young master." Xiao Fei hurriedly explained.
"What's going on?" Bai Lingyue wanted to know, because she always felt like she was with her elders when she was with Xiao Mingxian, but it was different when she was with Mr. Buran.
"Young master has something to do recently, so he went out to do something." Xiao Fei said.
"Is it such a coincidence? He is not here every time I come. Hey, it's not that I don't want to eat with the prince, but I always feel that I am with the elders."
Bai Lingyue sighed.
Xiao Fei smiled awkwardly.
"Miss Bai, the kitchen is here. You can use everything here as you like. If you need help, there is a cook there."
Bai Lingyue walked into the kitchen, her eyes widened. She knew the luxury of this palace. The kitchen was too big, right? It's time to catch up with her yard.
Various ingredients are neatly stacked on the surrounding shelves.
The kitchen was very clean. As soon as she entered, the cooks hurriedly greeted her.
"Miss Bai, may I help you?"
“I need those, those, those vegetables washed, and the meat, liver, and kidneys washed and sliced.
There are also some peppers, garlic, and ginger for me to use for later use. "
Bai Lingyue rolled up her sleeves and began to prepare.
The cooks were all very talkative and no one made it difficult for her. Everyone worked together and quickly prepared all the ingredients Bai Lingyue needed.
"It would be great if there were fish and shrimp." Bai Lingyue muttered. In this era, eating hot pot and meat dishes is limited.
"Yes, there are all kinds of fish, including shrimps, in the ice cellar." A cook told Bai Lingyue immediately after hearing what she said.
And an ice cellar? Is there anything else in this palace that she can't think of?
"Then can you please take me to the ice cellar?"
"Okay." The cook took Bai Lingyue to the ice cellar.
There are many rare items brought from far away places frozen in the ice cellar, including croaker, pomfret, squid, octopus, prawns...
Bai Lingyue took out all the ingredients she needed and went to the kitchen to start cleaning.
The cooks are also very cooperative and help Bai Lingyue with everything he needs to do.
All the preparations were done. Bai Lingyue poured oil into the pot, started to stir-fry the watercress until fragrant, then added chili peppers, Sichuan peppercorns, onions, ginger, and garlic and continued to stir-fry.
After frying, she put in the chicken soup and started to cook the bottom of the pot.
During the whole process, the cooks were staring at her. They said they were learning skills, but in fact they were afraid of what she might do. The prince had to be careful with his food.
When I smelled that novel fragrance, I couldn't help but salivate.
"Miss Bai, what are you doing? It smells so good!"
asked the cook just now.
"This is hot pot." Bai Lingyue said.
Seeing everyone's confused expressions, she explained: "It's something you can eat while you're ironing it. You can also make it for the prince like this in the future."
The cooks all know that the prince is very picky. This stuff is delicious, but the prince has never eaten it before. Can he eat it?
It didn't take long for the cooks to realize that they were wrong. As long as Miss Bai cooked it, the prince would eat it.
Xiao Mingxian came here because he smelled the fragrance. Although the food cooked by the cooks was good, it was too bland and he was tired of eating it every day.
The smell was pungent but very fragrant, and he liked it very much.
"Your Highness, you are here, we can eat." Bai Lingyue had already asked someone to pick up the pot and place it on the briquettes, so that they could sit down and eat slowly.
"Can it be eaten?" Xiao Mingxian asked suspiciously, looking at the cleanly washed but not yet cooked vegetables.
"Yes, the hot pot needs to be hot. If you have nothing to do, I will wait for you." Bai Lingyue gave Xiao Mingxian some condiments, and then they sat down opposite each other. She started to scald the meat, and then placed it in Xiao Mingxian's bowl. inside.
Xiao Mingxian still looked at her, not knowing how to eat.
Bai Lingyue also blanched a piece of meat for herself, then put it in a condiment bowl for dipping, and then put it in her mouth. The meat was fresh and tasted so delicious.
Xiao Mingxian didn't say anything, and took a bite just like Bai Lingyue did. This... was really delicious, and all his doubts were dispelled.
Then wherever Bai Lingyue was needed, Xiao Mingxian moved faster than her. In the end, the two almost fought over the last slice of waist.
"My lord, you are a man and you should let me go."
"Why? Fair competition." In the end, Xiao Mingxian still got the piece of waist.
Bai Lingyue pouted her mouth, and Xiao Mingxian put the waistband in front of her: "Open your mouth."
Bai Lingyue looked at the golden mask and felt that the old man would not lie, so she really opened her mouth, but Xiao Mingxian actually...
