Chapter 309 That Girl Will Think of a Solution Herself
Just like last time, in order to cope with the unpalatable food in the corridor, this time Chen Huazheng also had people prepare food that looked similar to sesame cakes, and even the oil paper wrapping on the outside was exactly the same as the one prepared in the palace.
Just looking at the appearance, even the chef in the imperial kitchen couldn't tell any difference.
The only difference is that last time the cooks prepared preserved vegetable and pork pancakes, but this time they prepared cabbage and pork pancakes.
The court robes are wide and thick, and a lot of things can be hidden in the huge sleeves.
While everyone was eating the meat soup while it was still hot, Shen Zhaonian and his two sons first took out the pie they had prepared in advance like a magic trick.
Then, under the cover of Grand Tutor Zhou and others, he hid the sesame cakes distributed by the palace maids in his sleeves.
This was the first time Shen Huazheng had done something like this, and she was a little worried that she would be discovered.
It can be seen that the father and brother were calm and composed, as if they had not done anything wrong.
She also felt that her psychological qualities needed further training.
It turns out that you still need to be thicker-skinned.
Jiang Cheng was excited as he watched the three of them move calmly and smoothly.
He was wondering why Jin Yu, who was such a picky eater, could finish the hard sesame cake without changing her expression.
It turns out that they used this method to replace it before!!
So smart~~
Master Zhou and his men also picked up the sesame cakes, covered them with their sleeves, and quickly repeated the actions of the Shen family. Then they picked up the pies and began to eat them with relish.
Everyone was excited as they ate the thin-crusted and delicious cabbage and pork pies.
Especially those like Jiang Ge Lao and Mo Zhishan who managed to get a free meal.
They took a sip of the meat soup and a bite of the pie in their hands.
I was almost crying out of excitement.
Woohoo, finally I don’t have to eat the sesame cake that is harder than a rock.
Jiang Cheng cheered in his heart and took a big bite of the pie in his hand.
The crust is crispy yet soft, the filling is fresh and fragrant, and has a hint of sweetness.
When you take a bite, the aroma of wheat, meat and cabbage intertwine and fill your entire mouth.
He ate the pie in his hand happily and felt very satisfied.
I just knew that I could get some delicious food if I followed along.
Hehehe~~~
If it weren't for the fact that he shouldn't be too ostentatious right now, Mo Zhishan would even want to compose a poem.
The pie was still warm. As soon as I bit into the crispy outer and soft inner crust, I tasted the delicious filling inside.
When you chew it, you can even feel the fragrant juice in the meat filling bursting between your lips and teeth.
If you taste it carefully, you can taste the aroma of wheat, the meaty aroma of pork, and the unique sweetness of cabbage.
The crust is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, the pork is tender and delicious, the cabbage is crisp and sweet, and all the unique flavors are intertwined together to bring the ultimate experience to the taste buds.
This pie is so delicious.
Who says there’s no such thing as a free lunch? This is clearly a free lunch.
Oh no, this is the pie given by Lord Xiao Shen.
Even if a pie really falls from the sky, it may not smell as good as this pie.
Mo Zhishan chewed the pie in his mouth carefully, with a smile on his face.
It turned out that the decision to return to the capital and the court was the right one.
Hahaha! ! !
Shen Huazheng and others ate the pie bite by bite, enjoying it very much.
Maybe it was a change in mindset, but they suddenly felt that the meat soup wasn’t so hard to swallow.
The meat soup was still warm and served with pie. If you ignore the fishy smell in the soup, it tastes refreshing.
Compared to the more aromatic lamb and beef, pork has a lighter flavor, but it's a little too overt.
Even the officials sitting near Shen Huazheng and others would not notice anything. Only a very small number of people with particularly sensitive sense of smell would smell the faint fragrance.
But when they stopped eating and looked carefully, they couldn't find any trace.
After a few rounds of this, the officials will simply think that it was their own illusion and will no longer worry about it.

Emperor Jingning was eating donkey meat buns bought from the food street while drinking white porridge.
Meat buns are better eaten with white porridge.
During the last morning court session, many officials learned that Shen Zhaonian ate donkey meat buns at home, so they asked people to buy them at the food court after the court session.
Emperor Jingning also sent people to buy them at that time. After tasting the donkey meat buns, he immediately fell in love with the taste.
The bun skin is soft and chewy, and when you bite into it, it is full of meat.
It’s still tender and juicy donkey meat.
Donkey meat has a strong aroma, and I don’t know what processing method is used, but it has no fishy smell at all. The meat is firm and tastes very good.
Emperor Jingning swallowed the bun in his mouth and suddenly thought of something.
He looked at An Desheng: “Chen Huazheng should also follow the others to eat the food in the corridor now.”
An Desheng: "Your Majesty, Master Xiao Shen also eats the same food as other masters."
Emperor Jingning hummed softly, indicating that he understood.
An Desheng thought that Emperor Jingning asked this because he wanted to call Shen Huazheng in to have dinner together, or to ask him to go out and send some delicious food.
After all, Emperor Jingning has always treated Shen Huazheng well.
Seeing his reaction now, although An Desheng was doubtful, he did not say anything, but stepped aside obediently.
In fact, Emperor Jingning had thought about inviting Shen Huazheng in to have lunch together at first, but he felt that she should not be treated too specially.
If that happens, the censors will probably make trouble again.
It might even cause dissatisfaction among other officials.
Emperor Jingning now sees through it. Some people always call themselves "gentlemen".
In fact, just a bite of delicious food is enough to make them fight.
Alas, this is human nature.
Emperor Jingning sighed in his heart and continued to eat his lunch.
Stop thinking about other things.
That girl is sharp-tongued and shrewd, she will definitely come up with a solution on her own.
There was no need for him to worry.
Anyway, he had already given instructions to his subordinates to turn a blind eye. Under appropriate circumstances, they could even help cover up for him.
What's more, he is the king of a country, how could he possibly take care of such trivial matters.
Letting the palace maids take care of him is the most that can be done.
