Chapter 159

"It's the prince who insisted on driving the cook out of the kitchen, saying that today is the princess' birthday, and he wants to cook for you himself. Sister Xiangsi's persuasion is useless. Everyone is worried about what will happen to the prince, so they have been guarding at the door of the kitchen. Sister Xiangsi asked me to stay here and wait for the princess to come back."

Seeing that Xiyan didn't speak, the servant girl thought she was angry, and quickly added: "everything this servant girl said is the truth, the prince is in the kitchen, and the princess can ask herself."

Cook for her?Xiyan couldn't help but think of what he said on the second day of the wedding day, and couldn't help laughing out loud. The maid heard the laughter, and then felt a gust of wind pass by her, and she disappeared in a blink of an eye. traces.

At the entrance of the kitchen, the inner three floors and the outer three floors were surrounded by people, and it was almost impossible to get through. Most of the servants in the entire palace should be crowded here.

There is concern, there is worry, and naturally there are also those watching the excitement, stretching their necks, standing on their toes, and Xiaobai cooking. As for so many people around?Just now when I went back to Cuizhu Residence, there was no one there, and some of them reported the news after the fact, what if they were met by thieves?Although in the eyes of thieves, Prince Gong's Mansion may not be their favorite, but nothing has been lost, and the mansion has been attacked by thieves, if it spreads, it will lose face.

"Come around here one by one, you are full and have nothing to do, right? What should you do? If there is something missing in the palace, I only ask you."

The servants around the door turned around and saw that it was Xi Yan, and her tone was not friendly, so they quickly knelt on the ground and said in unison: "Princess."

"Have you finished your work in the palace? Do you have nothing to do? The prince's kitchen is so beautiful. If you want to see it, then come in with me."

The voice was cool, and it made people feel even colder in the ears. Those people lowered their heads, how could they dare to make a sound.

"From now on, no matter if I am in the palace or not, if I find out what happened today, everyone has broken the rules. You all know my methods, and I will never leave some servants who don't keep their duty. Those who are in the palace, go down."

Those people knelt on the ground trembling with fear, and when they heard Xiyan say the word "go on", they all thanked each other, got up from the ground in a hurry, and ran faster than a rabbit.

Xiyan smiled, but she wasn't angry at all. She knew what she was doing. It would be strange if these people didn't treat her like a scourge. But for these people, even if you treat him well, how many people will be grateful to Dade?I'm afraid I will never be satisfied, Acacia's tenderness needs her power, but there are still fewer people around, only Acacia Hongdou, and now there is one more Wu Yu, Wu Mu will probably live for another two years, see It seems that she has to think of some way to recruit troops, but she can't remember this. For the people around her, she has always preferred to lack.

There are bright red lanterns hanging around the eaves of the kitchen, separated by a layer of tissue paper, the weak candlelight is not very bright. Although the moon is not round tonight, it is still bright. Although the stars in the sky cannot compete with hundreds of The night pearls compete for brilliance, but it won't be dark, that's good.

Xiyan had just stepped up the steps, and before she reached the door, Xia Yebai, who was wearing a silver mask on her face, had already rushed to her. When she saw Xiyan, she was immediately overjoyed, and hugged her: "Yanyan, I I thought you had another accident and couldn't make it back."

Xiyan smiled and patted him on the back, her eyes suddenly softened: "Get up first, aren't you allowed to enter the kitchen? Leave these things to the servants."

There were indeed many accidents today, but she almost dared not come back. The next time she went out, she would never share a carriage with others. Fortunately, she finally came back before tomorrow.

"Today is different."

Xia Yebai stood up, raised his head, a pair of obsidian-like eyes, clear and innocent, staring straight at Xiyan.

"I said I will take good care of Yanyan."

She remembered that on the second day of the wedding, he scratched his messy hair and said to her with some embarrassment: "I don't know how to wash and dress up now, but I will definitely learn it well every morning. I have to wake up earlier than you, fetch water for you to wash your face, and try to learn how to put on clothes, ah, Er Niang also said, to draw eyebrows and lips..."

He also said that he would wash and cook, but in the end, it was she who combed and washed his hair.

When Xia Yebai said this, he lowered his head in embarrassment, and laughed dryly: "In the past, Yanyan always took care of me, but today is different."

Those innocent and clear eyes are full of indescribable seriousness and paranoia, Xiyan always feels moved, but she is suspicious in her heart, always feels that there are emotions that she cannot see behind those innocent eyes.

"Today is Yanyan's birthday, of course I have to cook myself. I made your favorite jade soup, sweet and sour pork and lotus leaf chicken."

Xia Yebai looked at Xi Yan and said in a playful way.

"come over."

With a slight nasal sound.

Xia Yebai laid her head down, a little puzzled, but she still obediently walked up to Xiyan.

"Look at what you look like. It's even blacker than a bag of black charcoal. No wonder those servants are gathered around the door. I'm afraid I'm making fun of you again. I should really ask Xiangsi to bring a mirror and show you Look at yourself."

"If they like to joke, they can just joke. They are used to it anyway."

Xia Yebai waved his hands disapprovingly. At this moment, the silver-white mask was pitch black as a whole, and it was all the color of charcoal gray. A few pieces of chicken feathers were inserted in the hair, not to mention the clothes, egg juice, pepper powder , and even bloodstains, if there were not so many people waiting around, she would really worry about whose bloodstains belonged to it.

She reprimanded softly, not knowing whether it was pity or something else, and gently wiped the charcoal dust on the mask for him with her slender fingers: "With me here, I want to see who dares to laugh at you, except me, if others bully you You, I can't spare him."

Xiyan looked vicious, and seeing that Xia Yebai was fine, she glanced at Xiangsi behind her: "The kitchen isn't burning, right?"

"Yan Yan."

Leaning on the back of Xiyan's hand, Xia Yebai directly wiped the ashes from her face on Xiyan's body, acting like a child.

"I only entered the kitchen for Yan Yan's birthday, and you still laugh at me."

The voice was quite sad, like a little daughter-in-law.

"Didn't you go to rest at this hour in the past? You're still in the kitchen so late, it's pitch black, what if you get hurt? How do you know I'll be back at this hour?"

Xiangsi took two steps forward, with a faint smile on her gentle face: "After the princess left, the prince asked the servant every half an hour when the princess would come back, what if he fell asleep when the princess came back? Will the concubine be unable to come back because of the accidents of the previous few days? How can the servants answer these questions? They sent people to Pingdingshan to wait, and when they saw the carriage, they rushed back to report, so they probably knew. When will the concubine come back, and can she come back today?"
