Chapter 78
After being reminded by Xiao Yun, Xie Zhao suddenly remembered.

At this moment, she could feel the gaze of Zhao Jing beside her looking at her.

"The new snack made by Cardamom is indeed delicious, but... it's a little sweet and greasy. I remember you don't like too sweet and greasy food, so I let Xiao Meiren take it away."

"How about this, it's a hot day, let's eat lightly at night, and I'll cook for you, how about it?"

Blinking, Xie Zhao turned around, looked at Zhao Jing with a smile, and discussed with him.

Zhao Jing was a little surprised when she said that she wanted to cook in person. He really didn't know that Xie Zhao could cook.

Cang Zhu followed Xiao Yun, and lowered her head when she heard her master's words.

"Then I'll go and get ready." Xie Zhao stood up, rolled up his sleeves, and went out of the hall.

Zhao Jing sat on the soft couch, thinking that Xie Zhao would cook for himself and make food for himself, he felt very happy.

Xiao Yun and Cang Zhu followed her master out of the palace. She noticed Cang Zhu's reaction and lowered her voice, "What's wrong? But what's wrong?"

She thought, since the master can propose to cook, the craftsmanship should be good, after all, it is for His Majesty.

But seeing Cang Zhu's appearance, she had some bad premonitions in her heart.

"How can our master know how to cook? It would be good if we don't burn the kitchen down."

For the big family of the Xie family, even Xie Jun can prepare a table of dishes, but Xie Zhao can't.

It's not that I haven't learned it before, but I just don't have that talent. I have learned it three times in total, the first time I learned it from Mrs. Hou Shen.

Nearly burned the kitchen down.

The second time was with the third master Xie Hui and the third wife Li Shi.

The kitchen is on fire.

The third time, Xie's family didn't believe in evil, so they specially invited a chef from outside to teach Xie Zhao.

The kitchen was on fire, and so was the chef's clothes. If the water hadn't been prepared in advance, the grass on the chef's grave might be two meters high by now.

From then on, the Xie family stopped letting Xie Zhao cook.

Cang Zhu's impression of Xie Zhao was before she got married. She didn't know that her master had already lived a lifetime.

That being the case, it's somewhat improved, at least it won't burn the kitchen and people's clothes.

So, when it was time for dinner, Zhao Jing, who had been looking forward to it, saw Xie Zhao's craftsmanship.

"That's it?" Looking at the two bowls of noodles in clear soup on the table, Zhao Jing raised his head in astonishment, and confirmed with Xie Zhao.

"Well, didn't you say it, eat something light, Your Majesty will have a taste." Xie Zhao tasted it, and the taste...is unbelievable.

She felt that she was already pretty good.

Zhao Jing sat down, he was a majestic emperor, even on the way from the palace to pray or hunt, he had never eaten such a simple thing.

What could possibly be done?

This noodle was made by Xie Zhao himself, specially for him, can I not eat it?

So, he picked up the chopsticks and wanted to taste Xie Zhao's craftsmanship.

Jiang Hai on the side hesitated to speak, but in the end he didn't speak. He wanted to say that he hadn't tested the poison yet.

But this is the empress cooking in person, and seeing His Majesty's expression, how dare he say it?
Zhao Jing ate the noodles into his mouth, they were cooked, but...

If you say it's delicious, it's definitely not delicious, but if you say it's not delicious...

It's really not good.

But when Zhao Jing looked up at Xie Zhao, she seemed to be expecting his praise.

"Not bad." Zhao Jing praised without conscience.

"Really?" Xie Zhao had tasted it, so he knew it naturally, but since Zhao Jing praised him, he was like an emperor, so why didn't he eat delicacies from mountains and seas?You can also praise yourself, which shows that the taste is special.

"Jiang Hai, send this bowl to the queen mother, and tell me that this palace cooks it myself, and your majesty agrees."

She gave orders with a smile, and almost choked Zhao Jing, but he wanted to stop him, but if he opened his mouth, he would reveal himself.

Jiang Hai looked at Zhao Jing hesitantly, seeing that His Majesty did not express his opinion, he had no choice but to respond, put the noodles in a food box and take them away.

"What do you eat?" There were two bowls of noodles on the table just now, he ate one bowl and gave the other to Fushou Palace, Zhao Jing looked at Xie Zhao.

"Miss Xiao came here today and made lotus leaf porridge. It tastes good. I happened to have some left over. I made someone freeze it before, but now it's slowing down. I'll eat that later, so I don't waste food."

Xie Zhao can't say that she doesn't want to eat the noodles she thinks are not very tasty, right?
After all, Zhao Jing ate it all.

However, he said it was delicious, so she didn't feel guilty about eating alone.

There is only one bowl of lotus leaf porridge left.

Zhao Jing lowered his head to look at the noodles in the bowl, and suddenly, the noodles, which were not tasty at all, were even more unpalatable.

-

Jiang Hai took the food box to Fushou Palace and relayed what Xie Zhao said.

Hearing that it was the empress who cooked, the emperor's children praised it as delicious, so the empress dowager ordered the mother to bring it over to have a taste.

After seeing the noodles coming out of the food box, doubts appeared on the Queen Mother's face.

It doesn't look good...

But thinking that even Huang'er would praise it, she picked one up and put it in her mouth...

"Bah, what!" Immediately, the queen mother spat out what she had eaten.

"Your Majesty really praised it?" She looked at Jiang Hai with suspicion.

"Back to the Empress Dowager, Your Majesty has indeed praised it, and the servant is right here." Jiang Hai reckoned that the noodles were not delicious. As for why His Majesty praised it, it was obviously because of the empress.

Don't say anything else, just look at the suspicious eyes of the queen mother at this time, and you will know.

"Here's a reward for you. After you finish eating, go back and tell your majesty and the empress that the empress has worked hard for you."

The queen mother ordered, Jiang Hai couldn't help but startled.

When he left Fushou Palace, Jiang Hai was in a bad mood.

If he knew that the noodles were so bad and he had to finish them all, he would throw some away on the way.

But right now, he has eaten everything, and he feels that he never wants to hear the words "noodles in clear soup" in his life.

After returning to Fengming Palace, Jiang Hai repeated the words to the Empress according to the Empress Dowager's instructions.

Xie Zhao sat next to Zhao Jing, and raised his eyebrows slightly after listening to Jiang Hai's words.

She didn't believe that the queen mother ate them all, and guessed that she would reward some unlucky person after eating two bites at most.

She didn't expect that that person would be Jiang Hai.

After dinner, the emperor and empress each took a bath, and then sat together. Xie Zhao told Zhao Jing about the matter of Miss Xiao today.

Zhao Jingjing nodded, expressing that he knew, no wonder Xie Huai'an arrived at the Wenhua Palace a little late today, so he was talking to Xie Jun.

He opened the notebook and let Xie Zhao read it by himself.

This was approved, and all of these he brought back, but he picked up the relatively special ones in the memorial, and brought them back for Xie Zhao to see.

Xie Zhao watched seriously, his hair was still wet, Zhao Jing sat next to her, smelling the faint fragrance of her body, looking at her side face, suddenly wanted to go over and kiss her.

So, he leaned over...

"Gululu..." Before he could kiss Xie Zhao, his stomach suddenly growled, and Zhao Jing had a feeling that something was about to rush down.

He immediately got up and walked towards the side...

 Add more, hee hee, six thousand words~
  The inspiration comes from life. I really burned the kitchen and used up three pots.

  Queen Mother: Bah, what is it, it doesn't taste good!My son even praised it and asked someone to give it to me to taste. I really forgot my mother when I have a wife!

  Jiang Hai: It's unpalatable. In the end, the miscellaneous family bears everything.

  Zhao Jing: The noodles made by my daughter-in-law are so unpalatable that I have to finish them. [Xie Zhao staring at the opposite side eating lotus leaf porridge] This side is even more unpalatable.

  Xie Zhao: The lotus leaf porridge is really delicious.
