Traveling to the ancient harem

Chapter 368 New Style Dumpling Soup

Hall of Supreme Harmony.

Huang Ye narrowed his eyes as he looked at the lady of the house who was sitting there with an air of arrogance.

Mrs. Bo raised her head as if she sensed something and looked at Huang Ye who was sitting there.

She thought this person should be Concubine Ye, who indeed had the appearance of a vixen.

It was her. Not only had she been at odds with her granddaughter since she was a child, but she also continued to be incompatible even after entering the palace, causing her daughter to be confined to her house.

She must teach this vixen a lesson today and let her know her own worth.

There are some positions that a person of her low status cannot even dream of.

Eunuch Yu was standing behind the emperor and was also observing the lady of the baron.

Xiaoyinzi, who had received the news, had already quietly told him what had just happened in the hall.

However, it is unwise to tell the emperor about this now, as so many people are watching in the hall.

Don't be in a hurry. If this old woman makes trouble again, he doesn't mind helping Concubine Ye to step on her again.

You asked him how he knew that Concubine Ye would have a fight with that old woman?

The answer is that he knows Ye Jieyu too well.

Today, let alone her family being bullied, even if Eunuch Yu was bullied, Concubine Ye would stand up for him.

Ye Jieyu is so protective of her people.

At this time, the emperor had finished speaking, and the emperor emeritus also said a few words, and the palace banquet officially began.

The palace maids began to serve the dishes in an orderly manner, and the dishes in front of everyone were the same.

Including what is placed in front of the emperor, it is the same as the one on the table below, and the main purpose is to share happiness with the people.

After the emperor picked up the chopsticks, the people below began to eat.

The young Prince Fu loved to be in a lively atmosphere. He picked up the wine bowl and was the first to toast the emperor, who drank it out of respect.

Then the atmosphere became heated. Among the male guests, some toasted the emperor and the emperor emeritus, while others drank from each other like familiar faces.

As for the female guests, although they were not as bold as the male guests, they still toasted each other at different tables and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.

In a room next to the imperial kitchen, Concubine Du was on high alert.

She asked Qiuyan to go out and supervise to ensure that there would be no mistakes in every dish.

"Miss."

Qiuyan hurried in, and seeing her expression, Concubine Du's heart sank.

Despite all the precautions, something still happened.

It turned out that due to the large scale of today's banquet, the large kitchen in the imperial kitchen could not be fully utilized.

So they built a canopy in the yard of the imperial kitchen, and many dishes were cooked under this canopy.

Originally, the imperial kitchen had been serving dishes smoothly, but when it came to the last dish, something went wrong.

It turned out that this palace banquet had regulations, and the last dish served was a bowl of glutinous rice ball soup, which meant that the palace banquet was a complete success.

There are also some particularities to this dumpling soup. The dumplings are made of fish meat, white and round, and the clear soup base is made from chicken.

This is a rare delicacy at winter banquets.

Since this dish was the finale, Concubine Du also attached great importance to it. This dumpling soup was made in the large kitchen of the imperial kitchen.

When this dish was served, the eunuch who was serving the soup was dumbfounded.

When the dumpling soup is served in the bowl, what is the black powder floating in it?

Princess Du was also furious when she saw the dumpling soup.

In order to bring out the flavor, the dumpling soup was cooked since morning. She sent people to check it several times, but nothing was found wrong.

I didn't expect something to happen at the last moment.

But now is not the time to pursue this matter. The most important thing now is how to make this matter go away.

"Eunuch Ma."

Du Fei shouted loudly.

Eunuch Ma hurried over.

"My lady, everything is ready over there."

"Just serve the food from your side."

Concubine Du ordered.

The Queen Mother thought that she was not prepared? She really underestimated her.

At this time, the banquet in the hall was coming to an end.

As long as the last dish of dumpling soup is served, the palace banquet is basically over.

To be honest, this palace banquet is just a nice name. These dishes were not very hot when they were brought over from the imperial kitchen.

In addition, the weather was cold, so the dishes became completely cold after being left on the table for a short while.

Plus, with so many people watching, it's impossible for anyone to eat and drink while the food is still hot.

Therefore, most people who attended the palace banquet ate only half full.

But it’s the New Year anyway, I can just go home and continue eating later.

After a little delay today, the palace maids finally brought the dumpling soup to the table.

Everyone looked at the bowl of dumpling soup in front of them at the same time.

what is this?

The dumpling soup they had eaten before was not like this.

At this time, Concubine Du walked into the hall and first bowed to the emperor who was sitting on the upper seat.

Then she bowed again to everyone sitting in the hall.

"I'm sorry, there was a mistake with the last dish today. This was urgently prepared by the imperial kitchen. It's a new style of dumpling soup."

Everyone present understood what Concubine Du said. Something had gone wrong with the dumpling soup.

"Try it, this dumpling soup is delicious."

The third prince took the lead and put a wonton into his mouth.

That’s right, this new style of wonton soup is made from Ningyuxuan’s wontons.

People in the hall picked up spoons and put the new style of dumplings into their mouths.

For a moment, the whole hall was silent. Even the female guests were so busy eating that they could not even raise their heads.

In this cold winter, a mouthful of hot dumpling soup can warm their body and mind.

but…

How can such a small bowl be enough? What if they want more?

"Excuse me, Madam Du, is this new style of dumpling soup still available?"

An old man with white hair and beard sitting in the front seat relied on his age to ask the question on behalf of everyone.

Concubine Du, who was standing here and had not left yet, smiled.

"The Imperial Kitchen has made extra glutinous rice dumpling soup. If you like it, you can order another bowl."

"Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up and serve another bowl to everyone."

Everyone looked at the little Prince Fu with gratitude.

This little Prince Fu expressed the thoughts of everyone.

Concubine Du turned around and went out again. After a while, the palace maids put a bowl of glutinous rice ball soup in front of everyone.

“It’s so delicious.”

The old man who suggested having another bowl exclaimed.

"No."

Someone next to him echoed.

"Even if I have another bowl, I can still eat it."

The Queen Mother, who was sitting in the upper seat, had a dark complexion.

She had been planning for so long, and this is the result?

Today's new style of glutinous rice ball soup is clearly a favor to that bitch Du Fei.

Don't think she doesn't know. This must have been the idea of ​​that bitch Ye Jieyu.

She glanced at Ye Jieyu sinisterly, and sure enough, Ye Jieyu was also looking at her.

The flash of provocation in Ye Jieyu's eyes made her rage surge.
