Godly Empress Doctor - Chapter 1524
Chapter 1524: Innocence (5)
Everyone looked at the old lady!
The roast fish simply smelled so nice that they all wanted to grab it and stuff it into their mouths!
Therefore, they were eager to see how the empress dowager would react.
But the empress dowager was a little slow to do so.
“Hm?” She chewed slowly. She frowned at first.
The others were intrigued by that frown.
Especially people like Mrs Zuo, who were thrilled!
Was it bad? Awful?
However, three seconds later, the empress dowager looked more and more surprised. In the end, she seemed astonished!
And her eyes widened as well.
The others found it hard to understand, because —
It was just a roast fish.
What could be so astonishing about it?
However!
The next second!
Everyone watched as the empress dowager rushed toward the grill despite her clumsy movements. She then picked up the fish with both hands the way one would hold a baby!
Wow!
She then took a very large bite!
Right after that —
Everyone watched as the supposedly graceful empress dowager gnawed on the fish like a crazy person!
She reminded the others of a zombie biting a human being. She was so excited that she looked completely crazy!
“Mother —”
Emperor Wu couldn’t bring himself to watch anymore, but before he could walk up to his mother, Feng Wu gave him an indifferent glance.
He immediately stopped.
“Is Her Majesty really going to be alright like this?” Emperor Wu asked anxiously.
Feng Wu waved grumpily. “She’s just a bit ravenous, that’s all. Plus, moon fish doesn’t have many bones. What can possibly go wrong?”
Seeing the way the empress dowager wolfed down the fish, Jun Wuxia had a bad feeling.
That didn’t seem right. Didn’t the empress dowager find the roast fish awful before? Why was she…
Could it be possible that there was something different with Feng Wu’s roast fish?
“Feng Wu, what did you put in it? Why is Her Majesty like this?!” Empress Dugu couldn’t take it anymore and asked in a harsh tone.
Feng Wu glanced at her and said indifferently, “Nothing, really. I just added some mustard grass.”
Empress Dugu asked, “What’s mustard grass? What does it do?”
Feng Wu said, “Not much, but it can relieve Her Majesty’s itching.”
Empress Dugu said, “You —”
Feng Wu smiled mildly and told Feng Xun, “I roasted two fish just then. Since Her Majesty won’t let go of hers, just cut up the other one and let everyone try it.”
“Sure!” The proud Young Lord Feng always listened to Feng Wu.
Feng Wu decided to let the others see what the fish was like for themselves.
However —
Mrs Zuo waved her hands. “I’m not eating that thing! I won’t!”
Feng Xun’s face darkened a little. Fine. No one was forcing her.
Mrs Dugu waved her hands as well. “No! I’m not eating it!”
Feng Xun was rendered speechless.
But it wasn’t the case with the others.
No one was strong enough to resist the tempting aroma, and they all took a piece.
Take Master Bai, the physician, for example. He only planned to take a small bite, but he couldn’t stop after the first bite!
He kept stuffing more fish into his mouth!
