Hearing Master Yao’s words, Housekeeper Gu spat in his heart, clearly wanting to eat Miss Song’s cooking as much as he could, but still making this gesture, simply wasting his time as Miss Song’s master.
At the same time, he also pricked up his ears high, he also wanted to eat Miss Song’s cooking.
Now that Miss Song has just got married to the King, he can still have a bite of her cooking thanks to Master Yao’s light, but when Miss Song becomes the King’s Concubine in the future, he would not dare to eat the dishes made by the King’s Concubine again even if he is beaten to death.
“Good, how about roast whole lamb?”
Hearing the words “roast whole sheep”, not only Master Yao, but also Housekeeper Gu’s eyes lit up. Without waiting for Master Yao to say anything, he hurriedly said, “Yes, I’ll order someone to buy the sheep.”
“There are two thousand people in the house, buying less is not enough to satisfy the craving, buy ten of them, and ask Hu Yong to come over.”
“Yes.”
Butler Gu ran out with the wind at his feet, and in a flash he was gone.
This old man, when he said food, he ran faster than a thief.
Master Yao withdrew his eyes and stopped pounding the medicine, walking to the side to wash his hands.
Song Wan Yue walked to the table at this time, drew a pair of grills and waited for Hu Yong to come over to give them to him, “Make ten pairs just like this, find an open space in the mansion to set them up, and prepare more firewood.”
Hu Yong answered and also ran out.
The people of the house moved quickly, ten sheep were bought and slaughtered, and the grills were set up.
While Song Wangyue moved her mouth, Hu Yong led the men to tie the slaughtered sheep to the grill and light the fire.
The smell soon spread out.
……
In the palace, the new emperor asked Chu Yunxiao to help him with his zhengqi on the pretext that he had to attend classes.
When the time came, Xu Yan packed his things and left the palace, while the new emperor went back to the imperial study.
The new emperor went back to the imperial study. He used to teach in the imperial study, but since he had asked Chu Yunxiao to help him with the imperial documents, the place of instruction had been changed to next door.
Chu Yunxiao’s face was foul.
If he had known that the new emperor had asked him to help him with the imperial documents, he would not have resumed his status as the son of the emperor, and he would not have had to be the regent.
The new emperor walked over and curtly brought a cup of tea to him.
Chu Yunxiao slanted a glance at him, put down his pen, took it, and took a few sips.
Eunuch Zhang bowed in, “Your Majesty, Your Majesty, someone came to report just now that a fragrance was wafting from the Regent’s residence, and the whole street could smell it.”
Thinking of something, Chu Yunxiao put down his tea, got up and walked quickly outside.
After two steps, he remembered that he was still wearing his dragon robe and immediately ordered, “Quickly, change my clothes, I want to go to the Regent’s residence to have a meal.”
Chu Yunxiao rode back to his house.
Before he even entered the house, he smelled the fragrance wafting out, and the corners of his mouth involuntarily rose upwards.
Yue’er was the only one who could make such delicious food.
He had been detained in the palace these days, and had not eaten with Yue’er for several days.
Just this fragrance ……
“Your Majesty, you have returned.”
The watchman came forward with a grin and took the reins; Hu Tau could have said that they would have a share in the whole roast lamb tonight.
“Miss Song is in the backyard.”
Chu Yunxiao didn’t even change his clothes and went straight to the backyard.
The backyard was in full heat.
Dr. Yao, Housekeeper Gu and Auntie were all there.
Hu Yong led the men behind Song Wan Yue, turning the grill at her command.
“The King has returned.”
Hu Yong swallowed the saliva that was about to come out of his mouth.
After more than ten years in the mountains, although there was no shortage of food and drink, he had never eaten anything as delicious as this, and he had long been craving for it.
Chu Yunxiao gave a muffled sound.
“It’s just in time to come back, it will be cooked in a little while.”
Song Wangyue smiled as she sprinkled the condiments.
Sweat permeated her forehead and her sleeves were rolled up a little, revealing her snow-white wrists.
Chu Yunxiao walked over and took the jar of spices from her hand and handed it to Hu Yong, then turned sideways to shield her from everyone’s gaze and lowered her rolled up sleeves, “Is there no one else in the house? You still need to do it yourself.”
Song Wan Yue raised her eyebrows?
Is this a case of being angry at the palace?
It’s true, anyone who is used to being free would not be able to bear being detained in the palace at first.
She stood on tiptoe and kissed his forehead soothingly.
The courtyard fell silent for a moment.
Everyone stood frozen in place as if they had been nudged.
The only sound was the crackling of dry wood burning.
Hu Yong, who was closest to them, had his mouth wide open.
My God!
Miss Song had actually kissed, kissed, kissed the king in front of so many of them!
Chu Yunxiao turned his head to glare fiercely at the dumbfounded crowd.
The crowd instantly covered their eyes in unison.
Even Master Chu was not an exception.
Song Wangyue was crying and laughing, she had just kissed her fiancé, what was the point?
Chu Yunxiao turned back, the knot in his throat twitched, but in the end he resisted the urge to kiss him back.
He took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat from her forehead, and then took her hand and walked to the table where Master Chu was sitting and sat down, tapping his hand on the tabletop.
Master Chu parted the two fingers covering his eyes and let out a slit to see the two of them sitting across from him in a disciplined manner.
Master Chu lowered his hand and asked carefully, “Shall we go elsewhere to eat?”
“No, a roast whole lamb needs to be eaten by a large crowd to be lively.”
When Song Wangyue said this, Chu Yunxiao naturally didn’t say anything to drive people away.
The crowd secretly let out a sigh of relief.
If they had to move to another place, the fire would have to be extinguished, and then the roasted sheep would not taste as good.
“It smells so good.”
The new emperor, who came over a step later, could not help but praise the strong fragrance as soon as he entered the courtyard.
The crowd looked over at the sound.
Apart from Hu Yong and Master Yao, no one else had seen him before.
But the bright yellow robes and the dozen eunuchs following behind were enough to explain his identity.
The crowd was so shocked that they were about to kneel down and salute.
“Don’t salute, I am here to dine today, and there are not so many rules.”
The crowd stopped moving, no longer as casual as they had been earlier.
“Sister Song.”
The new emperor walked over to the table where the two were sitting and sat down, calling out with a smile.
His eyebrows, which bore a slight resemblance to Chu Yunxiao’s, were arched and his demeanour casual.
“Your Majesty is truly blessed with a mouthful, this is the first time I have baked.”
Song Wan Yue was also casual.
“Then I’ll have some more. ”
As she spoke, the corner of her eye swept towards Master Chu, who was standing to the side with his head hanging low.
When he entered the backyard, this woman was sitting with the Regent and Sister Song.
It should be the girl that Imperial Uncle had raised back then.
Noticing his measuring gaze, Master Chu’s head hung even lower.
The new emperor withdrew his gaze and looked towards the roasted whole lamb in a row.
“How long before it’s cooked, I’m hungry.”
Master Chu stepped back silently, she had no blood ties to the new emperor and was not fit to stay here.
Retreating to where no one was looking, she turned and left the backyard.
Hu Yong, who had been keeping an eye on her, took it all in, looking at the nourishing roast whole lamb and thinking that he would have to send a large piece to Miss Chu later.
Naturally, Chu Yunxiao and Song Wangyue also saw it and did not call out to Master Chu.
Master Chu did not have his curtain hat on, and the scars on his face would scare the new emperor.
Moreover, with the new emperor here, Master Chu was afraid that he would not eat well either.
A quarter of an hour later the roast was ready and Hu Yong and one of the government soldiers carried the sheep up.
Song Wangyue tore a piece of mutton with her hands and put it directly into her mouth.
The crowd looked on in amazement.
