Chapter 378 Smells So Good

Taking into account that some people eat spicy food and some don’t, several types of dipping sauces are provided.

She has prepared all the dishes, spicy or not, with oil sauce and sesame sauce.

At that time, everyone will follow their own taste.

Then he asked someone to cut the beef and mutton that had been rolled last night into thin slices.

There are also tripe and crispy tripe.

He also directed people to make beef balls, fish balls, shrimp balls, etc.

These are all made freshly, and the ingredients that need to be prepared in advance have also been prepared in advance.

Most people don’t dare to eat beef, but it’s the New Year in the palace, so naturally all kinds of ingredients are available.

Then he washed the mushrooms, tofu, vegetables, and vermicelli. Ye Nanyue was drooling just by looking at them.

Come to think of it, she herself hasn't eaten hot pot for a long time.

I'm craving this too.

In the entire imperial kitchen, except Ye Nanyue herself, everyone else also swallowed silently.

Everyone was drooling over the dishes made by Ye Nanyue.

Don’t worry about whether you have tried it or not. Just look at the complicated production process and you will know that it is definitely not simple and it is definitely delicious.

The royal chefs and other kitchen servants had already thought about it silently.

After their masters have eaten, they also make some in private.

Even if the ingredients aren’t that good, it doesn’t matter.

Something is better than nothing.

They eat well on ordinary days, and during Chinese New Year, the food is good, but it’s not that lively.

This looks interesting and will definitely be lively.

Except for the shrimp paste and thin fish slices, the chef felt that he could handle everything else.

After Ye Nanyue and the others finished their work and prepared the seasonings, they explained to the kitchen manager how to eat hot pot.

Moreover, he also told the royal chef the right time to put each ingredient in the pot.

Especially tripe, it doesn’t taste good if it is cooked for too long.

The kitchen manager was listening nearby and felt puzzled.

What does the princess mean by this order?

Could it be that they are required to go forward and serve their masters at meals?

Why did you tell him in such detail?

But I didn't dare to be negligent and wrote them all down one by one.

After Ye Nanyan finished speaking, she asked them, "Did you remember everything?"

The three stewards hurriedly said, "We have all taken note of this."

Ye Nanyue said, "Okay, I have extra ingredients and soup bases, and I've also prepared some for the kitchen staff and the palaces."

"It's just that the ingredients are limited. For those that are scarce, let's share and try something new."

"Except for beef and tripe, everyone can share the rest and eat their fill."

Nowadays, many affairs in the palace are handled by Concubine Xie. It is New Year, so it is only natural to ensure that the servants have enough to eat.

The three servants in charge all looked at Ye Nanyue, somewhat unable to believe it.

It seemed surprising that they could eat this thing.

It was cooked by Ye Nanyue herself.

"Your Highness, can the servants eat too?" Several stewards looked at Ye Nanyue in disbelief.

Ye Nanyan nodded slightly: "Of course you can, just use it with confidence."

A group of leaders looked at Ye Nanyue with great surprise and were about to kneel down to express their gratitude.

Ye Nanyue stopped them before they knelt, "Alright, no need to be so polite, just work hard. Your Majesty is kind, and the ladies and gentlemen also want everyone to have a good New Year. Just work hard."

"Yes, thank you, Princess."

Several people in charge couldn't help but kneel down and kowtow.

This is a great honor for them.

Ye Nanyue just nodded slightly and asked the person to get up.

Now, she can also paint a rosy picture for people and comfort them.

The hot pot base and dipping sauce were ready, and Ye Nanyue instructed in the kitchen how and when to serve the dishes.

He also asked the person in charge to clearly explain the time for serving and removing the dishes to the eunuchs before returning to the palace.

This doesn't require the service of a cook, but it definitely requires the service of a eunuch.

The nobles can't always do it themselves.

Of course, when it is brought into the palace, there will definitely be someone willing to do it themselves.

That would require a knowledgeable eunuch to answer the question.

Ye Nanyue returned to Concubine Cen's palace, took a bath, changed her clothes, dried her hair, and then put on her wedding dress for New Year's Eve.

Although you will still smell something when you eat hot pot later, doesn’t that mean you haven’t smelled anything yet?

Later, for dinner, I have to go to the Emperor's Yangxin Palace to kowtow and pay my respects, and then go to the Liuli Palace with the other princesses and consorts. There must not be any smell of hot pot.

When she came in, Lu Huaiyang had just returned from the Yangxin Palace.

Lu Huaiyang and Cen Fei, mother and son, felt a little distressed when they saw Ye Nanyue smelling like hot pot.

But Concubine Cen couldn't help but sniff and asked, "Nan Yan, what delicious food did you make? It smells so good."

Ye Nanyan smiled at Concubine Cen and said, "You'll know soon, Mother."

Concubine Cen originally felt sorry for her hard work, but when she smelled the scent on her body, she felt a little hungry and began to look forward to it.

After Ye Nanyue had washed and dressed, it was almost time, so everyone went to the Yangxin Palace together.

The Yangxin Palace was extremely lively today. Almost all the famous people in and outside the palace, whether favored or not, were here.

Fortunately, fortunately Ye Nanyue knew the list in advance.

Otherwise even a small stove wouldn't be enough.

After they kowtowed, everyone looked at Lu Huaiyang and Ye Nanyue, and for a moment they didn't know how to get along with each other.

The emperor's heart is hard to guess. The emperor used to favor Lu Huaiyang, but suddenly, something happened to Lu Huaiyang again.

According to this matter, and because of the matter of marrying a concubine, the favor seems to have not disappeared. Although the emperor seems indifferent, who knows what the emperor thinks?

Especially at this moment, the emperor looked at Lu Huaiyang and Ye Nanyan with a bad face, but he called Ping An forward and said, "Ping An, come here. Come to the emperor's grandfather."

Ping An was not shy, and walked over to the emperor with confidence. He sat down next to him and called out in a sweet voice, "Grandfather."

Everyone looked at it, and no one said anything.

Now, the eldest prince and the second prince are in trouble, and there are no older sons in their homes.

The third and fourth princes were also implicated.

The son of the fifth prince had just been questioned by the emperor, but he was not so affectionate.

The prince of the Princess's Mansion was about the same age as Ping'an, but because of the Second Prince's affairs, he did not dare to get too close to the Emperor, and the Emperor did not ask much.

The others are still small, and many are even held in hands.

So, when the emperor called Ping'an over, everyone was watching and felt a little jealous.

He began to re-evaluate his favor towards Lu Huaiyang and Ye Nanyue.

"Why are you here so late?" The emperor personally helped Ping'an take off his cloak, and Eunuch Su hurriedly took it over.

The emperor brushed off the snowflakes stuck to Ping'an's hair and said, "It's getting colder."

Ping An smiled and said, "In reply to Grandfather Huang, my mother went to the imperial kitchen to prepare food, which delayed her for a while, so we all arrived late."

No one expected Ping An to be so direct at this time, and they were all waiting for the emperor to get angry.

However, the emperor was not angry. Instead, he glanced at Ye Nanyue and said calmly, "Oh? What delicious food have you prepared?"
