Gluttonous Crown Princess

Since Zishuang was sent away, the atmosphere in Yaoguang Hall has been much more harmonious.

At first Tao Ti thought it was her own delusion, until one time in the afternoon, she accidentally heard the chattering of three little palace ladies.

All that was said was how Zishuang had bullied others before, and how unceremoniously he treated them like the little palace people overtly and secretly. Now that she is gone, thank goodness, the princess finally did a good deed... or something.

Then, the topic naturally turned from Zishuang to her master—

"Actually, I think the princess is pretty good, and she is very polite in her dealings with others, and she didn't even see her putting on airs."

"You've only eaten the snacks made by the princess twice, and your heart is turned to her? It's really shallow! Who knows if she is really getting better now, or is it pretending to be seen by your highness?"

"It shouldn't be a pretend? Hey, don't think of people so badly. In fact, it's very pitiful to think about the princess. If a lady doesn't want to marry a healthy man, our highness is indeed not good. …She was taking poison at that time, and she probably wanted something wrong for a while."

"That's how it is said, but when I think of what she did before, I still feel that I should be responsive."

Tao Ti was not angry when she heard these small words behind the corridor, after all, it would take some time to change her impression. At least for now, it seems that there are still people who speak for her to see the big from the small, so her reputation is gradually getting better?

She thought optimistically, and suddenly listened to Linglong looking for her.

In order to prevent the little palace ladies from discovering that she, the princess, was eavesdropping on the corner, she quickly moved away quietly and walked to the front of the hall.

The female officials from the internal straight bureau came to measure the size and prepare to make summer shirts.

Tao Ti cooperated with the female officials to measure and was very satisfied with the measured data.

This body has a slender waist and slender limbs. Although the chest is a little smaller, it is quite predictable to squeeze it.

The female officer also praised while measuring, Tao Ti was so happy that she took a purse to reward her, the female officer was surprised and happy, busy thanking her.

After the female officer retired, Tao Ti looked at the good weather, and wanted to take advantage of this half-day situation to try to step on the big map of the East Palace.

Seeing her in a good mood, Linglong naturally didn't stop her, ordered two little eunuchs to accompany her, and went out with Tao Ti.

The area of ​​the East Palace is not small, with numerous halls, pavilions, pavilions, gardens and rockeries, and the scenery is pleasant.

One of the little eunuchs had a clever mouth, and his mouth was crackling and talking non-stop. Tao Ti was introduced to the East Palace along the way. Tao Ti listened with gusto, thinking that such a good eloquence is unfortunately untimely. A modern and proper gold-medal tour guide.

The group of people wandered around for almost two hours before reluctantly strolling around the East Palace.

"I'm exhausted. I didn't expect that the East Palace was so big, my legs would break, and I had to take a pot of hot water and bubble my feet at night."

When Tao Ti sighed and returned to the Yaoguang Hall in the afterglow of the setting sun, Pei Yan was already sitting in the courtyard drinking tea.

Hearing the movement at the door, he turned his head and looked.

He is wearing a pale white brocade robe with a jade belt around his waist and sitting upright and straight. The golden sunlight sprinkled softly on him, making his already delicate and beautiful eyebrows more gentle.

With this situation, Tao Ti suddenly forgot to speak, and stopped subconsciously.

Pei Yan smiled at her, his voice was neither high nor low, "I'm back?"

Tao Ti came back to his senses and walked towards him with a little surprise in her dark and clear eyes, "His Royal Highness, why are you here so early?"

In the past, he only came during dinner time, and it was still dark in this meeting.

"I'm not busy today, let me sit by you." Pei Yan raised his hand and poured her a cup of tea, motioning her to sit down and drink tea.

Tao Ti happened to be thirsty too, so she sat down opposite him, picked up the tea cup and drank, and didn't carefully ponder the "by the way".

Pei Yan saw her cheeks glowing with a faint red color and a thin layer of sweat on her smooth forehead. He couldn't help squinting his black eyes and whispered, "I just heard you shout tired, where did you go shopping?"

Tao Ti drank a glass of water and felt that it was not enough, so he added another one, and replied, "I have been to the East Palace for a few days, and I didn’t have a good stroll, so I walked the East Palace all at once today. I just didn’t expect the East Palace to be so. Great, it took almost an afternoon to finish shopping!"

Hearing this, Pei Yan raised his eyes calmly and glanced at Linglong on the side.

Seeming to understand the question in the deep gaze, Linglong nodded her head neatly, indicating that the princess was telling the truth.

Pei Yan raised his lips and said lightly, "It will be a long time in the future, you can walk around slowly, not in a hurry."

A wisp of wind happened to blow, causing his sleeves to move slightly. For some reason, Tao Ti only remembered the phrase "the future will be long" in his mind.

She lowered her eyes and looked at his slender fingers holding the cup. The skin on the back of her hand was extremely pale, and the light blue blood vessels could be clearly seen.

With such a weak body, what will be long in the future...

In this quiet gap, the daylight dimmed again unconsciously.

Tao Ti was still feeling melancholy about his physical condition. As soon as he raised his head, he saw the horizon not far away, a round of orange-red sunset hanging quietly, yellow and bright, shiny, like a knocking open. Gaoyou salted duck eggs with bluish white shell and oil flowing out.

Thinking of the wonderful taste of salted egg yolk, Tao Ti's eyes were curved, and he said to Pei Yan briskly, "His Royal Highness, why don't you eat fried rice with salted egg yolk at night?"

Pei Yan, "...?"

Why is it suddenly involved in dinner?

Standing on the side, Fu Xirui was also a little surprised. She was wondering whether to pass the prince over. She listened to the prince’s warm voice and said to the prince, “You should be tired after shopping for an afternoon. Let’s rest and have dinner. Just let the pantry be ready."

"I was a little tired just now, but it's okay to rest for a while. Besides, it's not about making noodles, frying rice, or two or two." Speaking of this, Tao Ti touched her nose with embarrassment. , Whispered, "The main reason is... I suddenly greeted that bite."

Although after tens of thousands of years of evolution, their gluttonous clan is no longer as greedy and greedy as recorded in ancient books, they eat everything they see, but their yearning and greed for food, especially delicacies, are still deeply buried in their bones.

Once they want to eat something, they have to eat it, otherwise the food is like a spell, and they keep thinking in their minds, the more they want to eat, the more greedy they are, the more they want to eat to their mouths, the whole vicious circle.

For example, Tao Ti's Thirteenth Uncle, who was on business in Yangcheng the previous night, wanted to eat authentic roasted naan and roasted buns in the middle of the night. He immediately bought a ticket and flew to Uzbekistan just to have a fresh and warm bite.

Tao Ti's frank and greedy look made Pei Yan laugh.

Tao Ti was confused by his laugh, and Shui Lingling's eyes flickered, "His Royal Highness, what are you laughing at?" Did he laugh at her too much?

Pei Yan's charming peachy eyes fixedly looked at her, with a magnetic and soft voice, "I am happy to think that I can taste your craft again."

Tao Ti, "..."

Oops, it seems to be picked up again.

Her ears are a little hot, her tone is flustered, but she is pretending to be calm, "You like to eat...well, it's not early now, I will go back to the house to clean up, and then prepare dinner."

Having said that, she quickly got up and walked into the house in a hurry.

Pei Yan looked at her petite back, and the smile in her eyes gradually faded after a long while.

Fu Xirui on one side carefully observed the prince's expression, feeling strange. His Royal Highness only said that he would sit and leave at the Yaoguang Hall. He didn't plan to keep any more... Why did the prince make a meal, so he stayed? That's weird.

Having said that, this prince is really...no rules. The prince stayed for a meal, not to mention a big banquet, at least he had to put on a generous table to show his attention. She pours it out, a bowl of noodles yesterday, a bowl of rice today? Her husband is the prince, and he is not a trafficker!

After half an hour, the strong and attractive fragrance floated from the small kitchen, not to mention Fu Xirui, and there was no one in the entire Yaoguang Hall who didn't stretch his neck and sniffed deeply.

Lord Stove, what does the princess do, how can it be incense to this point? !

Even Pei Yan, who was sitting in the hall playing chess with himself, paused for a moment in the air with his black chess player.

Can fried rice be so fragrant?

certainly-

Fried rice is not so powerful. The reason why it is so fragrant is all due to the salted egg yolk chicken wings.

In the small kitchen, a small pot of oil was simmering, and as soon as the chicken wings coated in powder slurry were put into the oil pot, they immediately made a crisp sound and exuded an incomparably seductive fragrance.

When the chicken wings are golden and crispy, pick up the chicken wings, raise the oil pan, put the salted egg yolk sauce into the pan to melt, fry the dense golden foam, then pour the fried chicken wings into it, quickly Stir fry to make sure the chicken wings are covered with salted egg yolk sauce.

In this way, a delicious chicken wings with salted egg yolk is ready.

After a simple set of dishes, Tao Ti turned around to make fried rice with salted egg yolk.

The rice is the overnight meal she specially ordered the dining room to prepare. Manager Sun was a little confused when she heard this request. After all, the dining room provided the owners with freshly steamed rice, so how dare you fool around with the overnight meal. But since this was specially ordered by the princess, he had no choice but to bite the bullet, and took a large bowl of leftover rice from the palace's meal and sent it to Yaoguang Hall along with other ingredients.

I saw Tao Ti tipping the spoon in a chic motion, and the golden rice rolled in the air, and then fell back into the pot steadily, without falling.

The kitchen lady's eyes straightened, and she said in her heart: The princess is really amazing.

Not long after, Tao Ti took out the fried rice, took off his apron and said, "All go to the dining room."

The palace people swallowed, and hurriedly carried out the simple but particularly attractive food.

Tao Ti cleaned his hands and walked out of the kitchen to dissipate the smell of oily smoke from his body before heading to the dining room. It was only a short walk from the small kitchen to the dining room, but almost everyone in the palace who met on the road cast a very admiring look at her.

When she stepped into the dining room, the palace people in the dining room also had the same expression.

Tao Ti raised her eyebrows slightly, feeling amused in her heart: He just made a meal, can this also increase her favorability?

On second thought, it seems that no matter what dynasty they are in, the people in this vast land are extremely passionate about food. The people regard food as their heaven, and sincerely do not deceive me!

"Isn't it just fried rice? Why did you make so much." Pei Yan glanced at the food on the table, a large bowl of golden fried rice, a plate of crispy chicken wings, and a bowl of delicious and light vegetable tofu soup. In addition, there are some ordinary fruits, cakes, and a pot of jasmine tea with fragrance.

"I made a lot of salted egg yolks. I thought about wasting a pity, so I fried chicken wings. As for this vegetable and tofu soup, it's simpler. Just add the ingredients when the water is boiled, and add some seasonings to the pot. It's not a lot of trouble." Tao Ti said in a relaxed tone.

"Thanks for your hard work." There was a soft light in Pei Yan's eyes.

"Hey, you're welcome, I was greedy and wanted to eat. Let's sit down and eat, it won't taste good when it's cold."

The two sat facing each other, Tao Ti directly scooped a large bowl of rice into his own bowl. Seeing Pei Yan's gentle appearance, he also scooped a large bowl for him, "Eat it, it's delicious." !"

Pei Yan never eats much, and eats lightly. Now facing the big bowl of oily and golden fried rice, he was a little dazed.

He just wanted to say, "The lonely may not be able to eat so much", but when he raised his eyes he saw that the girl opposite was already eating.

She ate very happily, her cheeks bulging, and her bright eyebrows carried a natural joy of being immersed in delicious food.

Seeing her eating so fragrantly, Pei Yan didn't consciously appetite, and took a bite of fried rice.

As soon as he entered, Pei Yan also skipped a touch of surprise in his black eyes.

This salted egg yolk fried rice is really delicious. The rice is golden in color and grainy. Every bite has the taste of salted egg yolk sand. The flavor and taste are like the most plump crab yellow in autumn.

Tao Ti smiled and asked when he saw that he had eaten several mouthfuls, "How is it, is it delicious?"

"Very good." Pei Yan commented affirmatively, and tried another piece of chicken wings. After a bite, the skin is crispy, the inside is fresh and tender, the juice flows across, and the meat is full of fragrance.

The palace man on the side saw them eating bite after bite, and the enticing scent of the food filled their noses, and the saliva almost turned into tears: before serving food, it didn’t feel too difficult, but now... they are also so greedy. !

Seeing the Prince's dinner, he actually ate a large bowl of fried rice, three chicken wings, and a bowl of vegetable tofu soup. Fu Xirui's eyes almost didn't fall off:

Your Highness actually ate so much? This is really an unprecedented first time!

If at first he just thought that the prince concubine's cooking skills were very good, then when he saw that the prince concubine could eat so much food for the prince, Fu Xirui could hardly wish to offer the prince concubine as a bodhisattva!

—

This night, Pei Yan stayed in Yaoguang Hall.

Before going to bed, he asked casually, "Tomorrow is fifteen, you go alone to greet the queen, will you be nervous?"

Tao Ti was surprised, "Yes, tomorrow is fifteen..."

Time flies so fast, she was so happy in the small kitchen that she almost forgot that there was something else.

"If you don't want to go, you can say that you won't be sick."

"Well, it hasn’t been long since I got married. It’s not so good... Once you’re born and cooked again, you’d better go there." Tao Ti thought to herself, Ganlu Palace is not a dragon-tan tiger’s lair, and the attitude of Queen Zhou is fairly polite, that is, It’s safer to do a more thorough etiquette to avoid a day’s sleep.

Seeing her saying this, Pei Yan let out a vague "um" and whispered, "Go to sleep."

Tao Ti closed her eyes obediently, but she didn't know why, thinking that she was going to Ganlu Palace tomorrow, her eyelids jumped a few times.
