"Your servant..." Su Xue'e frowned, not knowing what to say.
Gu Yanyue pursed her lips, mustered her courage, and whispered, "I was playing with my sister and disturbed Your Majesty. I beg Your Majesty to forgive me."
Su Xue'e immediately breathed a sigh of relief. The Queen had always been at odds with her, and their relationship had deteriorated to the point where they wanted to kill each other. She had thought that the Queen would take advantage of the situation to defeat her, but she had not expected that the Queen would actually rescue her.
What exactly is Gu Yanyue planning?
Before she could figure it out, Yuwen Ran suddenly lost his balance and was supported by Eunuch Gao, the chief eunuch beside him.
Eunuch Gao said helplessly, "Your Majesties, His Majesty's old inability to eat has recurred. This morning, the Prime Minister was concerned about the Empress's condition, so His Majesty came specially to visit her."
It turns out that the puppet emperor Yuwen Ran was so cruelly controlled by the prime minister that even though he was seriously ill, he still had to listen to Prime Minister Gu and care about his daughter.
After saying this, Yuwen Ran felt that his goal had been achieved and wanted to turn around and leave.
"Wait a moment, Your Majesty!"
Gu Yanyue suddenly spoke up to stop him, "If Your Majesty has a poor appetite these days, I do have a way to cure Your Majesty's illness."
Isn't this just a mild case of anorexia?
She is a Michelin three-star chef. Although her cooking skills cannot be said to be the best in the world, they are at least among the top in the world.
Especially mild anorexia like this, she had some contact with it in modern times and knew that this disease is actually a psychological illness. Rich people suffer from this disease most because they have eaten all kinds of delicacies from land and sea, so they often feel that everything they eat is tasteless. Coupled with other troubles, they begin to suffer from anorexia over time.
Gu Yanyue was once hired at a high price to cook for wealthy people and treat anorexia.
So she was very confident that as long as the food was delicious enough, it would definitely cure the disease!
Perhaps Su Xue'e was truly afraid that Gu Yanyue could truly cure Yu Wenran's illness, so she quickly stepped forward and said, "Sister Queen, you've only just recovered from a serious illness, so it's okay for you to act up sometimes. But if you really delay His Majesty's treatment, not only will the emperor's body be damaged, but the nation's body will also be harmed."
Upon hearing this, before Gu Yanyue could say anything, Yuwen Ran spoke first, "I will not eat food cooked by the daughter of the Gu family, and I will not accept the Gu family's favor. Besides, all the doctors in the Imperial Hospital are helpless, so what good ideas can the Queen have?"
Gu Yanyue smiled adorably: "The solution is, of course, I will cook. I will definitely make His Majesty have an appetite to eat."
After hearing this so-called solution, Su Xue'e couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. She thought Gu Yanyue had some solution, but it turned out to be just like this?
joke!
Not to mention that Gu Yanyue is the second daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion who has never done housework. Besides, the imperial chefs in the palace are the most famous chefs in the world. Even if she, Gu Yanyue, can really cook, can she cook better than the imperial chefs in the palace?
Thinking of this, Su Xue'e swept away her previous nervousness and smiled: "In that case, sister will go to the imperial kitchen. If you need anything, just tell me. I will definitely help you if I can."
There was no room for Yuwen Ran to refuse. Su Xue'e now wished that Gu Yanyue would quickly go and cook, make a fool of herself, and be disliked by Yuwen Ran. Then wouldn't she be able to rest easy in this palace in the future?
Gu Yanyue saw through her little thoughts at a glance, and looked at Yu Wenran, whose face was ashen, and just smiled.
Just wait and see, if she still can’t cure an ancient person’s disease, the first thing she will do when she returns is to tear up her chef’s certificate!
The imperial kitchen was bustling with people, all busy with their own duties. When they saw the distinguished guest coming in, they quickly put down their work and came out to greet him. In an instant, people knelt on the ground and shouted "Long live the distinguished guest".
Yu Wenran felt a little nauseous when he smelled the smell from the kitchen from afar, but seeing Gu Yanyue already picking something up inside, he decided to follow in to take a look.
Master Lu, the head chef, looked at Gu Yanyue playing with the kitchen knife with a look of panic, his thighs trembling, and he frantically advised, "Your Majesty, if you get hurt, this old minister's head won't be enough to chop off! Your Majesty, be careful!"
From time to time, he looked at Gu Yanyue's pair of bare hands. Her fingers were as soft as peeling onion roots, her hands were as soft as silk, her skin was as white as cream, and her exposed fingers were slender and soft. It was obvious that she was a lady from a secluded place who had never touched women. How could she do such rough work as cooking and cutting vegetables?
Seeing Gu Yanyue playing with the kitchen knife, Su Xue'e came forward and said with a smile: "Queen sister, be careful. As the saying goes, swords have no eyes. You..."
"Shut up!"
Gu Yanyue chopped the meat on the chopping board with a knife, scaring Su Xue'e so much that she stepped back repeatedly.
The force of the knife was quite strong. Su Xue'e was supported by the palace maid and stepped aside, but she could not recover for a long time.
"I don't like being disturbed when I'm cooking, okay?" Gu Yanyue rolled her eyes. "If Concubine Su feels that I'm bothering you, just don't eat."
Su Xue'e didn't dare to speak, but Yuwen Ran was watching the excitement from the sidelines. Eunuch Gao knew that his Majesty liked to see the Gu and Su families fight each other, so he smiled and said, "Your Majesty, I don't think the Queen's attitude seems to be fake. Why not wait and see?"
Yuwen Ran sneered, "It doesn't matter if I wait. After all, I only have the title of emperor. Now I have nothing to do all day, and it's very difficult to eat. Even if the daughter of the Gu family can really cook something, I won't be able to eat it even if I don't want to!"
As he said this, he lifted his robe and sat down in the imperial kitchen, waiting for Gu Yanyue to prepare the meal that was said to cure his illness. After being threatened with the kitchen knife, Su Xue'e dared not go in again, so she stood obediently beside Yu Wenran and waited.
In the imperial kitchen, Gu Yanyue was very good at handling a kitchen knife. Although it was a heavy knife, it was extremely flexible in her hands.
She first chopped the garlic, chili peppers, green onions and other seasonings, added a little oil and threw them into the pan to heat, and then began to stir-fry over low heat.
When the fire was ready, Lord Lu looked at the black mass in the pot with a puzzled look on his face. "Your Majesty, if this dish were served to His Majesty, I'm afraid it would be difficult to eat!"
The Queen spent a long time working on this thing. Isn't it really here to blow up the kitchen?
Gu Yanyue looked at Lord Lu with pity, then shook her head, her tone full of pity, "Lord Lu, if you live your whole life without even having a delicacy like hot pot, then life will be boring."
"What?" Lord Lu's brows were almost wrinkled into the shape of the Chinese character "川".
"What I made is called hot pot," Gu Yanyue smiled even sweeter, "Once it's done, Lord Lu will be able to experience its delicious taste. I guarantee that Lord Lu will be so enchanted by the delicious taste that he won't want to leave."
Lord Lu pretended to believe it and let Gu Yanyue do whatever she wanted.
