Chapter 359 Emperor Kangxi eating melon seeds
As soon as these words were spoken, the surroundings became quiet again, and even the sound of breathing could not be heard.
Emperor Kangxi's brows furrowed more and more, and he stared at the warm wine for a long time without saying a word.
Wen Jiu saw that the heart on Emperor Kangxi's head remained unchanged, so he wasn't afraid of him. He just smiled and said, "Your Majesty, it's only an hour until noon. I'll make you some fresh food then, okay? You can eat more at noon. I guarantee it will taste better than this pancake."
When Emperor Kangxi heard Wenjiu's coaxing tone, the corners of his mouth twitched inexplicably. After all, he felt that he was the ruler of a country and it was not right for him to argue with a little girl over such a trivial matter. In the end, he turned his head away, not looking at Wenjiu and not saying anything.
Wen Jiu didn't stop working at all. Instead, he prepared a pancake for Tong Guowei and handed it to him, saying, "Sir, your meal is ready."
Tong Guowei noticed that Emperor Kangxi was looking at him, and for a moment hesitant about whether to take the call.
The emperor has nothing to eat now. If he eats in public like this, wouldn’t it be inappropriate?
However, this one just now aroused his gluttony, and the pancake in front of him seemed to have an attraction that kept tempting him. Tong Guowei endured it again and again, but finally took it.
He glanced at Emperor Kangxi, then at the pancake, and for a moment he didn't dare to put it in his mouth.
After enduring for a long time, he closed his eyes, gritted his teeth, turned his back to Emperor Kangxi, took a bite of the pancake, and then quickly turned back. He closed his mouth and chewed slowly, pretending that nothing had happened.
The thick pancake with spicy strips was a bit more delicious than the previous one. The most important thing was that it was not particularly spicy and was still acceptable to him.
After taking one bite, he couldn't eat the second bite happily. Tong Guowei felt like he was being scratched by a cat and kept staring at Emperor Kangxi's expression.
The prince held the pancake and didn't know whether he should eat it. He looked at his royal father, then at Lord Tong, and then at the warm wine with an indifferent look on his face. Finally, he stood there stiffly.
"What are you all looking at me for?" Emperor Kangxi said unhappily, "Eat quickly, or it'll get cold."
These people are really wasting good things. This pancake tastes best when it is hot.
"Yes." Tong Guowei and the prince went to eat pancakes, each with their own thoughts.
Emperor Kangxi stared at the two people eating the pancakes, his Adam's apple moved, and suddenly asked, "How is it? How does it taste?"
Tong Guowei nodded immediately: "Your Majesty, this food tastes excellent. It tastes even better with the spice than without."
Emperor Kangxi looked at Tong Guowei, just waiting for his next words. Even if he couldn't eat it, he would still say it tasted good. But he didn't hear anything else. He just saw Tong Guowei eating bite after bite, talking to himself, and eating with such relish.
Emperor Kangxi's brow furrowed even more, and he turned his gaze to the Crown Prince: "Baocheng, how do you like it?"
The Crown Prince couldn't help but show a bit of surprise in his eyes: "Father, the food tastes excellent. I never thought that something that looks ordinary could be so delicious."
The prince was stunned for a moment when he first saw such a large object. Even the most insignificant things in the palace were made with exquisite craftsmanship. He had never seen anything like this wrapped in oil paper and then eaten directly.
Because of the emperor's words, he took a bite. Unexpectedly, the taste was unexpected.
The prince couldn't help but take another bite, his eyes subconsciously looking towards the warm wine.
This woman was stunningly beautiful, but surprisingly, she was also a skilled cook. She was also incredibly bold, even daring enough to openly dissuade the Emperor. No wonder her younger brothers kept talking about her. I overheard the ninth brother mention that this woman had single-handedly taken down three large men, but I'm not sure if that's true.
Wen Jiu also became curious about this prince, because the heart on his head was a color he had never seen before.
It turned out to be a light sky blue. Wenjiu untied the knot and took Xiaojin out to ask it, but Xiaojin was scratching his head and was very confused.
"Master, Xiao Jin doesn't know this either. I need to study it carefully." Xiao Jin scratched his head secretly. To be honest, he hasn't figured out the blue heart of the Thirteenth Master and Fang Gege in front of the Third Master, and now there is a blue heart. Xiao Jin suddenly felt confused.
"Master, there's nothing we can learn from the past. We can only explore slowly. If there's a chance, we'll get some love back. Xiaojin will study it slowly."
Wenjiu nodded slightly, but he wasn't in a hurry.
What's important now is Emperor Kangxi's love. Wen Jiu saw that Emperor Kangxi seemed to be in a bad mood because he didn't have any food, so he took out a bag of sunflower seeds and handed it to him with a smile: "Your Majesty, would you like some sunflower seeds?"
Having said this, he simply sat down on the steps under Emperor Kangxi's chair and opened the oil-paper package.
Emperor Kangxi thought he had misheard: "Eating melon seeds?"
Wenjiu nodded: "Yes, I have made two flavors of melon seeds, five-spice and milky." As he said that, he took out another small bag and presented it to Emperor Kangxi.
I couldn't find any sunflower seeds, so I used some watermelon and pumpkin seeds to warm my wine. It's the best way to kill time.
By the way, in modern times, she also fried watermelon seeds and took a long time to eat a little bit. She was not afraid of gaining weight, and it could also cure the loneliness in her mouth.
Now it is particularly suitable for Emperor Kangxi.
Emperor Kangxi didn't know what was going on. Perhaps it was because Wen's movements were too natural, he inexplicably took the oil-paper bag that Wen Jiu handed to him, and inexplicably imitated her to open the oil-paper bag.
Looking at the melon seeds lying in his palm, Emperor Kangxi was stunned.
What on earth was he doing? He was the emperor! How could he sit here, eating sunflower seeds with the other women in the harem?
What is this?
"Your Majesty, do you smell it? Is the five-spice flavored one more fragrant or the milk-flavored one?" Wen Jiu took a pill from Emperor Kangxi's and said, "I think the five-spice flavored one tastes better."
By the time Emperor Kangxi came to his senses, he had already thrown a melon seed into his mouth.
He really didn't know how to crack it, so he took a bite and frowned: "It tastes good." But he didn't get the kernel.
I subconsciously looked at Wenjiu and saw him cracking melon seeds one after another. His hands were very dexterous. He just turned the seeds around his mouth and then threw away the skin.
Emperor Kangxi frowned and tried again, but failed.
He did not give up, continued to try, and continued to fail.
When Emperor Kangxi was finally able to eat half a melon seed kernel steadily, he realized that he had been eating melon seeds with warm wine for quite a while without realizing it.
The prince and Tong Guowei behind him were stunned. Even Liang Jiugong stared with eyes wide open in disbelief.
