Although the old eunuch naturally couldn't say anything, he didn't leave either. He just stared at it curiously.

Yuan Junyao was also very calm. She just did her own thing and ignored the old eunuch.

Soon the first dish was ready.

Fried locusts, locusts are actually grasshoppers.

The golden color and oily sheen look very tempting, but it looks a bit scary to those who have never eaten it.

The old eunuch stared at Yuan Junyao with a strange look in his eyes and asked curiously, "You really made locusts into a dish? Is it edible?"

Seeing that he was standing aside and being quite honest, Yuan Junyao said, "If you are curious, you can try it."

"No, no." The old eunuch shook his head repeatedly and asked, "Who are you cooking for?"

Yuan Junyao said calmly, "Make it for the emperor."

The old eunuch's face changed drastically and even his tone of voice changed.

"You, you want to give this bug to the emperor to eat, you are crazy!"

Yuan Junyao felt that the eunuch was making a fuss out of nothing.

However, it is understandable that ancient people had never eaten it.

So she patiently explained: "This is edible, really."

The old eunuch didn't say anything, but just looked at her strangely, thinking that she might be mentally ill.

Although this thing was not made by the people in the imperial kitchen, it came out of the imperial kitchen.

If the emperor gets anything wrong with the food he eats, no one in the imperial kitchen will be able to escape.

Especially him, he will be the first to be beheaded.

The old eunuch had been in the palace for many years. Although he did not know Yuan Junyao's identity, he did not dare to look down on anyone.

So he didn't dare to say anything now, but he had to report this matter to the Queen.

If anything happens to the emperor, it can't be blamed on him.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Yuan Junyao thought he didn't believe her, so she picked up a locust and put it in her mouth to eat.

It is crunchy and the aroma of oil blooms on the tip of your tongue, it is crispy and fragrant.

The old eunuch looked at her as if he had seen a ghost, turned around and ran away without saying anything.

Yuan Junyao watched him leave speechlessly, thinking that he really didn't know how to appreciate her.

But she could understand because some people were indeed afraid of insects.

She moved on to the next dish - fried centipedes.

Compared to locusts, I'm afraid even fewer people would dare to eat this dish, but it tastes really good.

There are also bamboo worms, which are full of collagen.

After frying all of them, Yuan Junyao saw some mushrooms in the kitchen.

Dry-fried mushrooms are really delicious. Wash the mushrooms, dip them in flour, and then fry them in a pan.

Finally, what's left is this stir-fried spicy toad. Bullfrogs, toads and frogs are really delicious, with fresh meat.

Especially in ancient times, there was no pollution, it was purely natural, and the meat tasted sweet.

Finally, I cooked a big pot of instant noodles and added a few poached eggs.

After preparing all the meals, she packed them in lunch boxes and went directly to the Yangxin Palace.

I looked up at the sun in the sky and it was just lunchtime.

But before she reached the Yangxin Palace, she was stopped by a group of guards.

She stood there in confusion, not knowing why she was stopped.

At this time, a palace maid with an arrogant attitude came over.

She folded her hands in front of her abdomen, with a proud look and a proper posture, as if everyone listened to her.

Before Yuan Junyao could figure out what was going on, someone came and snatched the food box from her hand.

How could they just snatch away the meal she worked so hard to prepare?

After she dodged, she asked with a sullen face, "What are you doing? Why do you want to steal my things just because you have a disagreement?"

When the palace maid saw that she dared to hide, her face suddenly darkened.

"Why don't you quickly kill this person who is plotting to murder the emperor..."

She didn't know Yuan Junyao's identity, so she paused and said, "The Queen will be here soon, you'd better surrender."

What is the conspiracy to murder the emperor?

Yuan Junyao was dumbfounded. When did she plot to murder the emperor?

Before she could react, a group of guards came towards her.

Without a second thought, she immediately used her lightness skills to fly up, even stepping on the guards' heads for leverage, and headed towards the Yangxin Palace at the fastest speed.

She wanted to ask the emperor when she had murdered him?

"Hurry up and chase her, don't let her get away."

Hearing the sounds of chasing and noise behind him, Yuan Junyao couldn't help but speed up.

Soon she got rid of all the guards behind her.

But she suddenly understood why they said she was plotting to murder the emperor.

The old eunuch asked her who she was making it for, and she said it was for the emperor, and then the eunuch ran away.

I think he went to complain to the queen at that time.

She was really at a loss whether to laugh or cry. How could she be accused of murdering the emperor just by cooking a dish?

Don’t say these things won’t poison the emperor.

Even if it is poisonous, the emperor is not a fool.

He has never eaten insects before. Will he eat them if she gives them to him?

At least he would wait until she had eaten and was sure it was ok before he would eat it.

After a while, Yuan Junyao arrived at the gate of the Yangxin Palace.

I didn't expect the Queen to be there too.

The queen was talking to Eunuch Zhao.

When Yuan Junyao appeared, both of them looked at her.

The queen frowned, her eyes fell on Yuan Junyao's face and then on the food box in Yuan Junyao's hand.

She had already sent people to the imperial kitchen to capture Yuan Junyao, but why did Yuan Junyao still show up?

The steward of the imperial kitchen came to report. After she learned about this matter, she immediately sent someone to stop Yuan Junyao, and then she came to the Yangxin Palace.

Eunuch Zhao had heard what the Queen had said, but he didn't believe Yuan Junyao would cook insects for the Emperor to eat.

So he asked, "What's going on with Doctor Yuan? The Empress said you cooked worms for the Emperor to eat?"

Yuan Junyao only asked to borrow the kitchen, and did not say who she was going to cook for. He did not think too much about it at the time, thinking that she was just borrowing the kitchen.

When the Queen heard Eunuch Zhao call Yuan Junyao the miracle doctor, and thought that she was someone close to Shen Shaoyu, she assumed that he came from the Medicine King Valley, and her expression softened a lot.

Yuan Junyao looked at the guards who were chasing after her from a distance and said calmly, "If you have anything to say, please see the emperor first. Why would I want to murder the emperor out of the blue?"

Upon hearing this, Eunuch Zhao immediately joined in.

"Your Majesty, you must have misunderstood. How could Doctor Yuan Shen plot to murder the Emperor?"

Yuan Junyao was the one who saved Xia Nanxing. How could she try to murder the emperor? This is really ridiculous.

Besides, she wouldn't be stupid enough to murder the emperor. Isn't that seeking death?

The queen remained silent.

The pursuers finally arrived in front of the Yangxin Palace. The palace maid arrived breathlessly and angrily reported, "Empress, this person actually dared to openly disobey your orders."

Yuan Junyao raised her eyebrows slightly.

The queen's face inevitably turned a little ugly. So many people couldn't catch up with one person.

At this time, a young eunuch came out of the Yangxin Palace. He bowed slightly and said, "Your Majesty, please invite the Empress and Doctor Yuanshen in."

Eunuch Zhao immediately bowed and led the way.
