Chapter 308 Roasted Whole Lamb

  It happened that Baoqin came in with breakfast, and she asked curiously: "What is the mother muttering?"

   "Nothing," Xiao Xixi moved her nose, "It smells so good, what did you make delicious?"

   Baoqin put a plate of noodles in front of her.

  The noodles are covered with a thick layer of crabs.

  This was brought back by Xiao Xixi from Yinyue Villa last night, and Baoqin added it to the noodles.

  This noodle is kneaded by Baoqin. It is very chewy, and it is cooked in chicken broth, and the taste is even more fragrant. When it is mixed with Sai crab, it is so rare that people almost swallow their tongue.

  Xiao Xixi took a bite to eat.

  Having such a delicious meal, I feel that my energy has been up all day long!

  Just as she finished eating, Yao Zhaoxun came.

  As soon as Yao Zhaoxun entered the door, she smelled the scent of food remaining in the air. She saluted and said with a smile.

   "What good thing did the empress just ate? It smells so fragrant."

  Xiao Xixi motioned to her to sit, and replied casually: "I just ate noodles."

  After Yao Zhaoxun sits down, Baoqin brings up refreshments.

  Xiao Xixi greeted Yao Zhaoxun to eat.

   Yao Zhaoxun responded, but she didn't dare to move the food in front of her. She just drank a sip of tea and then chatted with Concubine Xiao.

   "The weather outside today is pretty good, why don't you go out for a walk? The chrysanthemum blooms just right recently, but it's beautiful."

  Xiao Xixi has no interest in viewing flowers. While sipping melon seeds, she casually replied, "Let’s talk about it."

  Yao Zhaoxun was not surprised by her reaction.

  People in the entire East Palace know that Concubine Xiao Bian doesn’t like to move, and she rarely goes out unless necessary.

  Yao Zhaoxun changed the subject and talked about another thing.

"Do you remember Qin Fengyi? Ever since she was imprisoned in Lengxianglou, her life has not been as good as before. Not only did she have no one to serve her, she also had the worst food, if it weren't for the queen empress. From time to time, someone was sent to look after her, I'm afraid she would have been tossed to death."

  Xiao Xixi curiously asked: "Who tossed her?"

Yao Zhaoxun covered his mouth with a group fan, and said in a standard melon-eating tone: "Who else? Isn't it Li Fangfei and Duan Liangdi! These two people hate Qin Fengyi to death, even though they are still in a ban." , Temporarily unable to go out, but their identities are still there, in the end they are much stronger than a little Fengyi who was beaten into the cold palace. As long as they say a word, even if they don’t come forward, the people below will find a way to toss Qin Fengyi , So she has no good life."

  Xiao Xixi said clearly: "It turns out that's the way it is."

  Yao Zhaoxun asked curiously: "Don't you want revenge?"

   "What revenge?"

   "Then Qin Fengyi had someone push you into the river before, and it almost hurt you. Don't you want to count this account?"

   Yao Zhaoxun came here because he wanted to know about it.

  She has nothing else wrong with her, just love gossip.

  Since Qin Fengyi was imprisoned in the Lengxiang Building, Yao Zhaoxun went to the Lengxiang Building to hang around without problems, wanting to eat melons and watch the show.

  In these days, she saw the people sent by Concubine Li Fang and Liangdi Duan, and the people around Queen Qin, but she didn't see the person from Concubine Xiao.

  It is reasonable to say that Concubine Xiao Fang, like Concubine Li Fang, and Concubine Duan Liangdi, are victims, but Concubine Xiao Fang is like a okay person. She has never seen her take revenge, which makes Yao Zhaoxun very curious.

  No, she rushed to Qingge Dian early in the morning, wanting to inquire about the thoughts of Concubine Xiao.

Xiao Xixi vomited the peel of the melon seeds in his mouth and responded casually: "It's okay. Although Qin Fengyi wanted to harm me, I was not injured. Besides, Qin Fengyi has already been punished. ?"

  Yao Zhaoxun thought she was talking politely, and followed by flattering.

   "The empress is really high-minded, tolerant and generous, and she deserves to be the person whom His Royal Highness valued."

  She then talked about some other gossip in the palace.

  For example, Chen Liangyuan often ran to Wanhe Temple recently, and it seemed that she was hugging Concubine Jing’s thigh.

  For example, the Golden Wind Palace has been lit up late at night these days. I heard that it was because Concubine Li Fang was staying up late to copy the scriptures.

   And Concubine Bai Fang seemed to be ill again, so she asked the doctor several times.

  ……

  Xiao Xixi listens quietly most of the time, occasionally responding.

  Yao Zhaoxun said that his mouth was almost dry before he stopped.

   Seeing that it was late, she got up to say goodbye and left Qingge Hall.

  In the afternoon, she has to go somewhere else, and then chat with other concubines about the latest gossip.

   Baoqin tidyed up the tea cups and melon seeds on the table, and said with emotion: "This Yao Zhaoxun can really say, as if she knows everything in this palace."

  Xiao Xixi thought, if Yao Zhaoxun is put in the modern era, he should be a gossip paparazzi.

  At noon, the prince came to Qingge Hall and had lunch with Xiao Xixi.

  Xiao Xixi looked at him with a look full of expectation.

   "His Royal Highness, can I give my concubine a fat sheep?"

   Luo Qinghan: "Do you want to eat lamb?"

  Xiao Xixi nodded vigorously: "Hmm! I really want to eat it!"

   "Wait for someone to hand it over, someone should bring you the lamb in the afternoon."

  Xiao Xixi immediately became happy: "Awesome!"

   She turned to Baoqin and shouted.

   "I want to eat roasted whole lamb tonight!"

  Baoqin was cutting fruit in the small kitchen at the moment, and she was surprised when she heard the words: “Where’s the sheep?”

  Xiao Xixi: "Rewarded by His Royal Highness!"

  Baoqin said with emotion that the prince really dotes on Concubine Xiao, and said, “I’ll make roasted whole lamb for you in the evening.”

  The thought of eating delicious roasted whole lamb at night, Xiao Xixi was so happy to eat five bowls of rice!

  After eating and drinking, Xiao Xixi went to take a nap with the prince.

  When Xiao Xixi woke up from sleep, the prince had already left.

   Baoqin came in and waited for her to put on clothes.

  Xiao Xixi finished freshening up, walked out of the bedroom, and saw Qing Song coming over.

   "Niang Niang, the mutton has been delivered."

  Xiao Xixi's eyes lit up, and she walked into the kitchen quickly, saw the lamb that had been stripped and cleaned, and quickly called Baoqin.

   "Roast the whole lamb, roast the whole lamb! Hurry up and roast it!"

   Baoqin said helplessly: “It’s too early to have dinner, and the servants still need to prepare some seasonings. Don’t worry, go and play for a while.”

  Xiao Xixi turned her head back and forth step by step and left the small kitchen, her face full of reluctance.

  When the sun was about to set, Baoqin had people set up a fire in the backyard.

  She racks the marinated lamb on the fire and roasts it.

  Xiao Xixi squatted by the side and kept admonishing.

   "Remember to put more cumin and chili."

  The mutton was roasted to the point of greasy, and the aroma filled the backyard.

As soon as Prince    stepped into the Qingge Hall, he smelled the rich smell of meat.

  He followed the fragrance to the backyard.

  Baoqin hurriedly stopped the movements in his hand and bowed to the prince.

  Xiao Xixi turned his eager gaze away from the roasted whole lamb, and said to the prince excitedly.

   "Your Royal Highness is just right, roasted whole lamb will be ready soon!"
