Chapter 204 There's a problem with the fried dough.
The two deep-set-eyed beauties discussed that they should try to put the powder on the lamb skewers. If they did this, the unlucky scapegoat would be Lin Yuesha, the woman from Daqi, not the two of them.
"We need to find a way to get this slut from Daqi away so that it will be easier for us sisters to carry out our plans."
The deep-set-eyed beauty held her sister's hand, and the two huddled together whispering to each other.
Lin Yuesha's face darkened, and she was also pondering.
If Blue Eyes were to be drugged and pass out, would that be a good thing or a bad thing for her?
Lin Yuesha's current location is unknown. Surrounded by barbarians, she has no chance of escaping and the time is not yet right.
She hoped that the sisters would deal with the perverted blue-eyed creature, but Lin Yuesha couldn't bear the consequences.
Blue Eyes fell for the trick. She can't escape; she'll be chopped up and fed to the dogs. If Blue Eyes hadn't fallen for it, she wouldn't even have a chance to catch her breath; she'd be fed to the dogs right away.
Lin Yuesha weighed the pros and cons and was determined not to be the scapegoat.
"Granny, Granny!"
Before the two sisters could act, Lin Yuesha called for help, summoning the old nanny to stop them.
"What are you yelling about!"
The old woman was talking to someone not far away when Lin Yuesha called her in.
As soon as she entered, the two sisters with deep-set eyes immediately stood obediently to one side, giving Lin Yuesha a resentful look.
"Grandma, the lamb skewers are ready. As for the seasoning, I'd like to heat it up before adding it; that way, it will taste better."
Lin Yuesha smiled ingratiatingly, but inwardly she sighed. She had never known before that she was also an actress, and she played the role of a two-faced person perfectly.
"Then take it over there; the city lord is waiting."
The old woman placed the lamb skewers on a tray and beckoned Lin Yuesha to follow her.
"Granny Wu, this is the city lord's fried cake."
A beautiful woman with deep-set eyes suddenly stepped forward, carrying a tray with freshly baked fried dough sticks on it.
The barbarians liked to stuff meat into fried dough cakes, so the old woman surnamed Wu didn't pay any attention and casually took it.
Lin Yuesha glanced at the two out of the corner of her eye and saw their smug expressions. She realized that there was something wrong with the fried dough!
What bad luck! How could she not escape this? The problem is, Blue Eyes is unreasonable and likes to punish those who share in the blame, and none of this has anything to do with her.
Lin Yuesha returned to the city lord's room with heavy steps, where Yuwen Kun had already ordered people to prepare charcoal.
Because they were going to have barbecue, Yuwen Kun moved to a room that was four or five times the size of the original one. It was very spacious, with a thick carpet on the floor.
A long table is set at the head of the table, and the food and drinks have been changed.
"Little girl, is this the lamb you roasted?"
Yuwen Kun glanced at the lamb skewers and said with a forced smile, "You didn't poison them, did you?"
Lin Yuesha had a bitter face. She didn't have that equipment, but it was hard to say about others.
Seeing Lin Yuesha remain silent, Yuwen Kun glanced at the fried dough sticks again, his expression unreadable. For a moment, Lin Yuesha even felt worried for the two foolish sisters, as if the man before her had already seen through everything.
"Lord City Lord, may I eat these?"
Lin Yuesha saw the dried meat and other similar items on the table and felt they looked very familiar.
"Can."
Yuwen Kun nodded, and then gave Lin Yuesha a disdainful look.
Even on the verge of death, they were oblivious to their impending doom, still thinking about getting a full meal. The women of the Great Qi were indeed quite extraordinary.
"this……"
Lin Yuesha took a bite of the dried meat and almost burst into tears. Yes, this was the taste. This was the one she made. There was no mistake!
Jiang Huai once said that all the food that was being sold was taken by a nobleman. Could this nobleman be Blue Eyes?
Why are you so easily startled?
Yuwen Kun was already seated in the main seat, looking completely calm.
"I made this, boohoo."
It had only been a short time, but Lin Yuesha felt as if she had been in a different world. In order to show that her cooking skills were excellent and of great value, she quickly showed off, "I asked an uncle I knew to sell the food I made, and he told me that all of it was bought by important people."
"really?"
Yuwen Kun glanced at Lin Yuesha, guessing that the little girl wouldn't dare to lie.
These foods are alright as snacks to accompany drinks occasionally, and he was planning to have his men kidnap the cooks who knew how to make them and bring them to Sishui City.
"Yes, that's right."
Lin Yuesha nodded like a chick pecking at rice.
"Then you can sit over there."
Yuwen Kun made a gesture, then ignored Lin Yuesha.
Lin Yuesha breathed a slight sigh of relief and raised her eyes slightly. Blue Eyes was dealing with the letters on the table.
He was serious when handling official business and looked like a normal person, making it hard to associate him with the pervert who would drag people out to feed the dogs at the drop of a hat.
"Lord, I request an audience."
A voice came from the doorway. Yuwen Kun put down the letter and said coldly, "Come in."
The gate was opened, and seven or eight generals entered. After bowing, they took their seats.
Perhaps because the city lord had never had a woman by his side before, everyone stared at Lin Yuesha from left to right, making her very uncomfortable. However, since Blue Eyes didn't speak, she didn't dare to leave.
"Lord of the city, our plan has succeeded. The Prince of Zhenbei is seriously injured."
One of them clasped his hands in a fist and said, "Now is the best time for us to occupy the border of the Great Qi."
"In my opinion, the Prince of Zhenbei is a cunning old fox, and we should not act rashly."
Some objected, suggesting that this might all be false information released by the Great Qi, and that the true situation of the Prince of Zhenbei was still unclear.
The barbarian generals were discussing the matter animatedly in their barbarian language, but Yuwen Kun didn't say a word.
"Generals, we will discuss this further after you have finished your meal."
After everyone had expressed their opinions, Yuwen Kun finally spoke.
Torches were burning on the walls inside the house, and charcoal braziers were placed around it, so it didn't feel cold.
The barbarian generals also felt that a conclusion couldn't be reached in a short time, so everyone raised their glasses.
Lin Yuesha was unsure whether to sit or stand, so she finally stood behind Yuwen Kun, hoping to be ignored by everyone.
"Little girl, the lamb skewers are already on the grill, you can continue grilling them."
Yuwen Kun lazily ordered Lin Yuesha to do hard labor, and gave her a warning look.
Lin Yuesha nodded and had no choice but to step forward resignedly, praying in her heart that Blue Eyes would not touch the fried dough. If the person fainted, she would not even have a chance to explain and would be executed on the spot.
However, it's not good to expose the sisters now, as it would be tantamount to revealing that I can speak a barbarian language.
For some reason, Lin Yuesha didn't want to reveal herself. She had a feeling that this skill could save her life in a critical moment.
The cumin and chili powder were expertly sprinkled on, filling the room with the aroma of mutton and chili powder mixed together—a bit pungent, but very pleasant.
Yuwen Kun took the lamb skewers, savored them slowly, and finally nodded.
The mutton is golden brown on the outside and tender on the inside, with a spicy flavor that stimulates the taste buds. Paired with roasted barley, it's incredibly satisfying.
The little girl wasn't lying. Grilling meat may look simple, but it requires skill in controlling the heat. She really does have some talent.
