Chapter 355 Emperor Kangxi: You can’t stand this little bit of spiciness?
Emperor Kangxi thought to himself, although this girl is young, she speaks very boldly.
Full of love?
Emperor Kangxi inexplicably recalled the cold and aloof face of the Fourth Brother, and suddenly felt a pang of jealousy. He probably threw this flirtatious glance at a blind man. With the Fourth Brother's character, he had never been seen to show any consideration to anyone.
Tong Guowei, who was following Emperor Kangxi closely, was also stunned by these words. My goodness, I don't know whose girl is speaking so boldly.
Subconsciously, he shifted his gaze to the woman in the middle who was eating.
As soon as I saw her appearance clearly, I was shocked. Who is this new lady in the harem?
Did the Emperor have a new lover in the harem recently? He hadn't heard a single word.
Tong Guowei was stunned when he saw Emperor Kangxi walking over.
Emperor Kangxi accidentally saw the pancakes in the hands of Fourteen and Thirteen, and his sword-like brows immediately wrinkled.
"Girl, why do I think what you make for them is different from what you make for me?"
The pancake he just ate tasted good, but there was very little filling in it.
Look at Xiao Shisi’s. When you take a bite, you can see delicious fillings all over the place. They are bright red and have a very strong taste. Why are mine so bland?
I just said that my love for the fourth brother is wrapped in the stuffing. Does that mean my respect for him doesn’t need to be wrapped in the stuffing either?
Wen Jiu was so busy talking to Master Jiu that he didn't even notice Master Kangxi. He was startled when he heard him speak, and immediately stood up and replied, "Your Majesty, it was you gentlemen who said you had big appetites, so you asked me to pack more food. And I just heard the Empress Dowager say that Your Majesty has been feeling a little irritated lately, so I didn't dare to pack anything too strong. How about I make you another one?"
"I know my own health, I'm fine." Emperor Kangxi waved his hand: "Give me some of your spicy strips. Also, what's that in Old Nine's hand? It has a lot of meat, give me some more meat. These chicken wings look good, I want some too. Give me as much as you can wrap."
Wen Jiu blinked, feeling rather strange. He had never expected Emperor Kangxi to be this kind of Emperor Kangxi. It was somewhat similar to the Big Mac that Little Fourteen had just made...
"Yes." Wenjiu responded, but he didn't give him too many spicy strips, just to give him some for the taste.
Chicken wings, various strips of meat, and warm wine were stuffed into his mouth.
She also added a few more eggs for him. In order to prevent the taste from being unpleasant due to too many eggs, she also brushed a little more sauce on the eggs to ensure that the emperor would eat them tasty and healthier.
"Your Majesty, your pancakes are ready." After warming the wine for a while, he held the giant pancake in both hands and handed it to Emperor Kangxi.
Emperor Kangxi looked at the size of the pancake, nodded with great satisfaction, took it and took a bite.
"Well, it tastes good." Emperor Kangxi nodded and praised.
"Thank you for your praise, Your Majesty." Wen Jiu responded with a smile.
But she was thinking, this pancake is exactly the same as the one she just made for Emperor Kangxi. They even use the same sauce. It's even lighter than before because of the extra filling.
I guess the emperor was attracted by the size of this giant. But seeing how satisfied Emperor Kangxi looked after eating, he must have been in a good mood.
Looking up at Emperor Kangxi's head, I found that the heart shape on his head remained unchanged from beginning to end.
The attempt to obtain love failed again.
This emperor really knows how to distinguish. It's true that he likes pancakes, but he just doesn't love himself...
"Uncle, this tastes good, you should try it too." Emperor Kangxi was eating and did not forget to greet Tong Guowei next to him.
"Your Majesty, the matter of this southern tour has not yet been..."
"Okay," Emperor Kangxi interrupted Tong Guowei, "I have a plan for this matter. Today, I finally have some free time. Let's not talk about this. Let's just talk about family matters."
Turning around, he said to Wen Jiu, "Girl Wen, make one for your uncle just like mine."
Tong Guowei beside him was stunned, and thought about it carefully. The emperor had been worried these days, and it would be good for his health if he could relax a little. He immediately clasped his fists in response.
Just after he relaxed, he realized that the emperor in front of him had been eating a big burrito with relish.
Is this the emperor who needed his ministers’ advice to eat more just two days ago?
Besides, it feels a bit strange that the leader of a country is still outdoors and eating a big pancake in his hand.
This scene had such a huge impact on Tong Guowei that he was unable to recover for a moment.
Emperor Kangxi beside him asked him considerately, "Uncle, can you eat spicy food?"
Tong Guowei was even more stunned by the question: "Your Majesty, what kind of wax?"
I have lived for more than fifty years and have never heard of anyone wanting to eat wax.
Wenjiu immediately brought over a small plate of spicy strips and said, "Sir, please try it and see how it tastes. If you like it, you can put some in. If not, forget it."
Emperor Kangxi, who was standing beside him, took one directly from the plate of warm wine and ate it all in one gulp.
He nodded in a good mood: "Well, it tastes good, uncle will try it too."
These past few days, when eating, he always felt that the food in his mouth was bland and tasteless. After taking a bite of the spicy strips, Emperor Kangxi immediately felt that his appetite increased a bit.
After Tong Guowei smelled the scent, he followed Emperor Kangxi's example and took one and stuffed it into his mouth.
At first, he chewed slowly, then his face froze as he swallowed it in one gulp, and later, his entire face turned red.
"Water! Is there any water?" He gasped because of the spiciness, his beard trembled, and tears were obviously seeping from the corners of his eyes.
The wine maker beside him immediately handed him a glass of water and said, "Sir, since this is your first time tasting chili peppers, it's not appropriate for you to eat as much as the emperor."
"Hahaha, uncle, you can't even eat this spicy food." Emperor Kangxi smiled, took another spicy strip, and stuffed it into his mouth in front of Tong Guowei, looking very enjoyable.
Wenjiu: ...Could it be that the emperor did this on purpose?
Tong Guowei drank three glasses of water in a row before he finally recovered. He exhaled and waved his hands as if facing a formidable enemy: "You can't eat it, you can't eat it. Your servant can't eat it."
This appearance made Emperor Kangxi laugh again, and he cheerfully ordered Wen Jiu: "Uncle can't eat it, Wen girl, just make him something light."
"Yes." Wenjiu responded, and his small hands quickly scooped up the batter and started making pancakes again.
She made the pancakes as smoothly as flowing water. Not only Tong Guowei, but also Emperor Kangxi and several princes around him could not help but look at her hands.
It is said that those around him are royal nobles with noble status, so naturally they rarely see others cooking.
Occasionally, I saw that most of the chefs were men, with rough looks. Even if there were two women, most of them were elderly. Few of them were good-looking, let alone warm wine like this, which was rare in my life.
What is even more rare is how smoothly she makes the pancakes, which is a visual enjoyment to watch.
It was not the first time that Emperor Kangxi and the other princes saw Wen Jiu cooking. They were used to it and just wanted to watch.
For Tong Guowei, it was extremely shocking.
Tong Guowei watched, and couldn't help but admire him secretly. No wonder this person could serve the emperor, he must be quite favored.
This woman is not only stunningly beautiful, but also speaks in a graceful and generous manner. She lacks some of the coquettishness of other women, but is extremely frank, which is truly rare.
However, Tong Guowei still had some doubts about the taste of the food she prepared. The spicy and pungent thing she had just given him was not a very good experience.
However, no matter what she makes, it is very rare to be able to do it by herself.
Tong Guowei secretly thought that when he returned today, he would definitely ask someone to secretly investigate. He wanted to find out who this lady in the harem was and what her family background was.
