Chapter 323
Half a quarter of an hour later, the dumplings that had been rolled three times were finally cooked.

The chefs also brought out the fried dishes one by one.

Liu Bai poured some of the dipping sauce that had just been poured with hot oil into small bowls for each of them.

After sitting down, seeing that the sweat on Ying Zheng's forehead was not completely dry, he looked at him with a smile and said.

"Father has worked hard, you can eat more later!"

Ying Zheng didn't want to say a word at the moment, so he picked up his chopsticks and said.

"Hurry up and eat!"

After picking up the food, the others started to move one after another.

On the entire table, only Li Si hadn't moved his chopsticks yet.

While slowly pouring dipping sauce into the bowl, he stared straight at Wang Jian, waiting to see his reaction.

After all, it was his first time to eat this dumpling, and after hearing that it was made of wheat, he lost all expectations.

However, based on Liu Bai's brilliant achievements in what he has done in the past, this has added a glimmer of hope.

Wang Jian didn't have so many colorful intestines, so he picked up a dumpling, dipped it in and put it in his mouth.

After chewing two mouthfuls, he swallowed suddenly, while nodding his head, and continued to pick up a dumpling and stuff it into his mouth.

Li Si originally wanted to see his reaction, but when he saw that he was just eating with his head down, he couldn't help feeling a little puzzled.

Is it really so delicious?

You know, this old guy used to compete with him for food!
Let's not talk about the dumplings, at least Liu Bai's stir-fried vegetables are truly amazing!
But look at today's Wang Jian, he didn't even eat the food in front of him, he just ate the dumplings...

Turning to look at the others, all of them looked similar to Wang Jian, and they didn't bother to look up.

Although I muttered in my heart, my body was very honest.

Tentatively, he stuffed a dumpling into his mouth, chewed it twice, and was surprised to find out.

Although this thing is made of wheat, it has no taste of wheat at all.

Coupled with the juicy filling inside, it completely whetted Li Si's appetite.

In the future, I will never question the consort's culinary skills again...

Although there are a lot of dumplings, the pot is limited!
There are only a dozen or so in each person's bowl at the moment, and they are all eaten in a short time.

Staring helplessly at the steaming pot, I kept hoping that it would be cooked soon...

While waiting for food, many people gave Liu Bai a thumbs up.

"My son-in-law, these dumplings are really amazing..."

"Yes, son-in-law, can you teach us later? Go back and let our cook learn as well..."

"Yes, yes, you can eat whenever you want!"

"..."

Amid the compliments from everyone, Liu Bai waved his hands modestly.

"As long as you can eat well, I will be happy! Looks like it's almost there, everyone, eat quickly!"

Hearing the word 'almost', Jiang Lu took the bowl and rushed to the pot with a 'swish'.

He put the bowl straight in front of the cook, waiting for him to serve it for himself.

The cook didn't say anything, and directly filled a bowl for him.

After saying 'thank you', Jiang Lu returned to his seat contentedly.

The courtiers watched helplessly, and only after he left did they swarm up.

Li Si looked at his empty bowl, then at the large group of people in front of the pot, and was speechless for a moment.

As for?ah?Are they all reincarnated from starvation?
Putting the chopsticks on at night, I kept making up my mind.

The next pot, no one will let labor and management!

Everyone in the courtyard was eating so much that their mouths were full of oil, and the courtiers outside the courtyard were drooling.

The excitement after going up the mountain was swept away in an instant.

I thought I would have a chance to get in touch with your majesty, son-in-law and other important people, but except for meeting once on the mountain, now I can't even get close to him within three feet.

The goal has not been achieved, and you are still hungry, why bother?
……

There was a lively scene on the mountain, but it was really hard for Mao Dun and others trapped in the valley.

Like the officials outside the kitchen, they are hungry!

After searching for the food brought by everyone, they piled it up and counted it. On average, each person can only get two bites.

I wanted to eat something to fill my stomach first, but I didn't expect that I would be even hungrier after eating it.

Moreover, in this valley, except for a small stream, everything else is flowers and plants, and there is not even a single edible wild fruit tree.

In desperation, Mao Dun could only order them to drink water first.

It's better to fill your stomach with water than to be hungry!

But they never thought that water is no better than wine.

If you drink too much wine, you will vomit or urinate after a while.

If you drink too much water, your stomach will really swell.

The Xiongnu cavalry, who used to look at people with their nostrils before, completely stopped at this moment.

They sat on the stone wall one by one, drooping their heads listlessly.

On the contrary, Mao Dun still sat with Patriarch Huyan.

His brows frowned into the word 'Chuan', watching him hesitate to speak.

Seeing his tangled appearance, Patriarch Huyan naturally understood what he was thinking.

As a prince, he didn't have to suffer these hardships.

Now that he has come to this point, the biggest reason is that bad idea that he came up with.

At the same time, he is also very clear about the current situation of the prince. Since he went to the Yueshi, many families that supported him in the past have rebelled.

Now when I come back, although a small part of them come to show their favor, but according to the prince's temperament, naturally he will not reuse it.

A family that has always supported him like the Huyan family is naturally extremely rare.

The prince who just came back will of course listen to their opinions on some trivial matters.

What's more, the person who was arrested this time was his son. At the beginning of the departure, the prince said that it should be done according to his opinion.

Originally, he wanted to give that son-in-law a disgrace, but he didn't expect that he had cheated himself now.

However, despite being in such a situation, he still firmly believed in his heart that this strategy was foolproof this time.
Seeing that Mao Dun was still hesitant to speak, Hu Yan straightened his thoughts and spoke first.

"Prince, don't worry. We are here in the name of envoys. No matter what happens to Daqin, he will not just watch us starve to death..."

"The current situation is mostly to frighten us. If someone is starving and sick, they won't ignore it!
"At that time, we only need to mix in Xianyang, and then everything will be easy!"

Raising his eyebrows, Mouton looked at him strangely.

In his memory, Patriarch Huyan's mind is still very good, but this time he came out, he always felt that this person acted very differently from before.

Especially the matter of asking to see the Great Qin Emperor this time, what he said was for himself, but he didn't see the slightest bit from his actions.

Now that he said such nonsense again, Mao Dun finally couldn't bear it anymore.

"Huyan, the goal we set before we came is to enter Xianyang first..."

"This place is only three or four miles away from Xianyang City, so why didn't we go directly into the city with the eldest son of Qin Dynasty, instead of going out in this valley?

"Is it really because of the reason you said before?"

Patriarch Huyan's pupils shrank slightly and returned to normal in an instant.

With a light cough, he smiled slightly.

"Prince, didn't I just want to raise your status? And if this move can anger the Great Qin Emperor and make him have a problem with Touman, then you can reap the benefits. Who would have thought that the Great Qin Emperor would play such a trick?" trick……"

"Is this true?"

Seeing Mao Dun's obviously disbelieving expression, Huyan's heart beat faster.
