Chapter 14 Animal Excrement

After finally sending away the visitor from the palace, Butler Zhao's back was already soaked with cold sweat.

He wiped the sweat off his forehead and ordered the gatekeeper: "The gate is closed. Without my permission, no one in the palace is allowed to go out at will in the next few days."

Luo Li, who had received two boxes of treasures, was not afraid of the danger just now, and hurriedly ordered several servants to help her carry the boxes into the private warehouse where the dowry was stored.

Yingchun followed to help, and worriedly told the servants to carry the precious red coral and night pearl to the warehouse of the palace and properly store them.

The princess did not want such valuable items, but only coveted the two boxes of spices. Even the servants in the palace know which items are the most valuable.

Luo Li had someone open the red lacquered wooden box, and squatted there to check the spices inside.

She took out a gray-brown object to check its age, and from another wooden box, she grabbed a handful of white chips to check the quality.

The result made her shout excitedly!

"As beautiful as flowers and jade! We are going to get rich!"

Seeing that the princess had no interest in the precious treasures, but was too fond of the spices in the two wooden boxes.

Yingchun couldn't help but ask curiously, "Princess, these calendula and camphor are just spices. Although they are precious, their value is far less than those rare treasures! If you like them, we have more than ten boxes in the big warehouse of our palace!!"

"Really?" Luo Li almost jumped up in excitement.

The princess was so lively and cute that Yingchun couldn't help but laugh!

: "Really, they are all gifts from the palace. The prince doesn't like to use spices very much. If you like, you can ask the prince for them."

: "If I ask Butler Zhao, can I get them?"

Yingchun shook her head, "Although Butler Zhao holds the key to the warehouse, he is just a servant in charge. If the princess wants something in the warehouse, she needs to ask the prince." Yingchun

thought that Madam Lin, who was in charge of the palace's food, also had this right, but she couldn't let the princess, a proper mistress

, ask her for it, right? Luo Li was immediately deflated. She didn't want to ask the King of Qin for things.

It's just that for making perfume, this dragon's birthday incense and camphor are one of the best materials. But these two spices cannot be bought even if you have money. After being transported here by overseas merchants, they can only be supplied to the royal family in the palace.

Although ministers can also get some rewards during festivals, my father, a third-rank official, only saved a few kilograms at home, which were all consumed by her long ago.

Yingchun saw that the princess was too excited and just held a piece of dragon incense and pondered there.

"Princess, I only know that this dragon incense and camphor are produced overseas, what exactly are they from?"

Luo Li looked at Yingchun and Ruhua who were eager to learn, and shook the gray-brown dragon incense in her hand.

: "That box of white icy-like camphor comes from a kind of incense tree overseas. As for this Dragon Birthday Incense! Don't be disgusted when you hear it!"

These words made Ruhua, Yingchun and others more curious.

Siyu was anxious to find out, "Miss, don't keep us in suspense, tell us quickly!"

: "There is a huge whale in this distant sea, and there is a sperm whale among the whales. These Dragon Birthday Incense are actually secretions from the intestines of sperm whales, which are..."

Before Luo Li finished speaking, Yingchun covered her mouth and was about to vomit in disgust.

Although Ruhua and Siyu felt novel, they didn't react much.

After all! They were trained by the young lady to eat even animal intestines. Although the Dragon Birthday Incense is an animal intestinal secretion, it is not for eating, right?

Yingchun covered her mouth, and after a while her stomach churned, she tried hard not to vomit.

Ruhua and Siyu looked at her laughter, and they were both laughing.

Yingchun sighed, "Oh! I didn't expect that this precious spice that only the royal family can use is actually the feces in the intestines of animals!"

Luo Li corrected, "It's not feces, it's the secretions in the intestines of sperm whales."

Yingchun didn't dare to imagine what the secretions in the intestines looked like, "Isn't it the same? What is secreted in the intestines, the butcher who slaughters pigs knows best!"

Ruhua and Siyu looked at each other. If there was a chance, Yingchun must taste the dish herself!

Luo Li brought the maid back to Ning Xinyuan and saw King Qin lying on the thousand-work bed and taking a nap, and the ghost-handed poison doctor was sitting in the dormitory watching over him.

Luo Li collapsed softly on the imperial concubine couch, "Ruhua, your young lady is hungry again, let Tingting help me get something to eat."

Ruhua was busy making tea for the young lady, and replied with a sweet smile, "Tingting has prepared it a long time ago. Miss, please wait a moment, the fragrant sesame cake will be baked soon."

The ghost-handed poison doctor immediately pricked up his ears, "What kind of delicious is this fragrant sesame cake?"

Yingchun stood at the door of the hall and heard it clearly, thinking that she didn't know if her own prince was hungry? What did he want to eat?

Since the prince entered the bridal chamber last night, Sister Ruhua sent the four of them to the east chamber. The people serving in the main room were all the people who came with the princess as a dowry. After

dawn, the four of them were allowed to enter the hall to wait for orders.

This sister Ruhua is good in other aspects, but she is too overbearing in this aspect.

Can the four of us still compete for favor with you, the confidants brought by the princess as dowry? We are just worried that you will not serve the prince well.

The ghost-handed poison doctor sipped the fragrant tea while flattering the young master.

"Master, you really know how to eat and drink. This tea is simply brewed with clear water, and it tastes much better than the tea soup that is beaten into foam and added with ingredients. The fragrance fills the nose, moistens the lungs, and quenches thirst!"

Luo Li, who has never been interested in the thick tea soup of this era, took a few sips from the teacup.

: "Old ghost, do you think this tea is so fragrant just by brewing it? These tea leaves of mine are precious! They

are made from young buds of Longjing tea before the rain, and are roasted using a special method. This cup is worth one or two taels of silver, but you have spent three taels of silver! You should keep this in mind."

The ghost-handed poison doctor trembled as he held the teacup!

: [These few sips of tea are worth one or two taels of silver? Why don't you go and grab it? How can there be people in this world who are more shameless than me? ]

Tingting came in with a plate of fragrant sesame cakes that had just come out of the oven and placed them on the table.

"Miss, the cakes are ready, you should fill your stomach. The big oven in the wedding dowry has been installed, and I have marinated the duck. Let it dry overnight, and you can eat roast duck tomorrow."

Luo Li picked up a piece of cake with satisfaction, stuffed it into her mouth and complimented her, "Tingting, it's great to have you by my side, your lady's stomach will never be wronged."

Tingting's face flushed with excitement after receiving the compliment from the lady.

: "Miss, just tell me what you want to eat. I have been thinking about the spicy strips you mentioned these days! When I figure it out, you can try it and see if it tastes right?"

"Okay! Your young lady can wait to eat it!"

Luo Li smiled. With a baby like Tingting who is obsessed with cooking, the food of this life is settled!

Tingting went out happily. There was a plate of cake in the kitchen. She wanted to serve it to her sisters while it was hot!

The ghost-handed poison doctor looked at the plate of fragrant cake on the table. He saw that the master was only eating and talking to the maid, and didn't even look at his disciple who was drooling.

He didn't care about pretending to be reserved. He picked up a piece and took a bite without hesitation.

: "Not bad! Sweet and soft, just suitable for the taste of an old man of my age!"

Luo Li glared at the old man who had no ambition when it came to eating, and ignored him.

The King of Qin, who was dozing on the bed, smelled the fragrant smell in his nose, and his stomach was even more hungry.

The small tea bowl of shredded chicken noodles had disappeared long ago. You guys were eating and drinking so sweetly, I wonder if I would be hungry too?

Where did all the maids in the mansion hide?

The King of Qin coughed, and... no one paid attention to him!

: "Master, what kind of delicacy is your spicy strips?" The Ghost Hand Poison Doctor thought about the spicy strips that the maid Tingting said.

The King of Qin was so angry that he sat up with a "bang", and the wound on his chest looked like it was cut by a knife.

He leaned his back against the cushion and shouted sternly, "Come here! I'm hungry, bring me some sesame cakes."

Ruhua and Siyu, who were standing by to serve the young lady, were about to move, but Luo Li stopped them with her hand.

"What are you two doing? The King of Qin summoned the servants of his palace."

Yingchun, who was standing at the door of the main hall, hurriedly stuffed the half-eaten cake that Miss Tingting gave her into the hands of Banxia beside her.

The prince was calling, and she was so scared that she quickly responded and lifted the beaded curtain to enter the room. She

bowed and said, "Prince, sesame cake... The servants have finished sharing the food outside. Whatever you want to eat, I will ask the kitchen to make it immediately."

The King of Qin was stunned with anger!

When did the servants of the palace become so unruly?

After secretly sharing the delicious food, they didn't remember that their master was still hungry.

The ghost-handed poison doctor poured a cup of tea, took a piece of cake and walked over.

"You little brat! It's still your uncle who loves you!"
