Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 214

Chapter 214 Delicious in the Mortal World
Yun Xiao’s eyes couldn’t move at this moment. She stared at county princess Hui Ning without blinking. She heard everyone whispering in her ear and helplessly looked at Chun Lan behind her. “Chun Lan, do we have any medicine for stomach and intestines?”

If you eat that kind of meal, it really doesn’t feel good.

Chun Lan had a bitter expression on her face and was anxious for her family’s girl. “Young lady, we don’t have any medicine. However, young lady can ask Young Master Rong for help.” They didn’t have any medicine, but there was a moving medicine furnace opposite them. Thinking of this, Chun Lan finally felt a little relieved.

The corners of Yun Xiao’s mouth trembled twice, and the corners of her mouth twitched, but she did not answer.

Everyone’s expressions changed drastically. The people on the throne weren’t willing to be outdone at this moment.

Hua Fei remembered the black thing she had made, Compared to what county princess Hui Ning did, she was at least able to cook. Her mood became more comfortable. When she looked down, she saw the eldest princess’ ugly expression and the corner of her mouth slightly raised. “Eldest princess, this must be the first time seeing county princess cooking. With county princess Hui Ning’s filial piety, eldest princess will have to try it first.”

The Eldest Princess had an embarrassed expression on her face. She looked at county princess Hui Ning once again and saw that county princess Hui Ning had put away the oil, salt, soy sauce, and vinegar. She picked up her chopsticks again and picked up the chicken feathers.

Not long after, a pile of chicken feathers appeared on the ground.

The Eldest Princess looked at him, her complexion turning green and pale. She wanted to vomit. She didn’t dare to compliment her daughter on her craftsmanship.

The day before yesterday, when the Eldest Princess knew that the Jin Emperor was going to hold a cooking competition in the Imperial Palace, she had intended to teach Hui Ning how to cook. However, county princess Hui Ning couldn’t find anyone for two days, so she finally saw someone. County princess Hui Ning looked powerless again. How could the Eldest Princess be willing to let county princess Hui Ning cook to learn how to cook?

However, looking at county princess Hui Ning’s appearance, the Eldest Princess felt that there was no light on her face. She wished she could dive into the cave.

She was even more regretful that she didn’t ask county princess Hui Ning to learn cooking at that time.

However, the Eldest Princess looked at Hua Fei’s complacency and sneered, her face ashen. “I appreciate Hua Fei’s painstaking efforts. However, since Hua Fei’s cooking skills are so good that she can win the approval of His Majesty and the Empress, I intend to let Hui Ning learn cooking from Hua Fei. What does Empress Hua Fei think?”

She was the mother of county princess Hui Ning. If county princess Hui Ning did not eat the food she cooked, others would naturally not eat it. Even if she felt that the food her daughter made could not be eaten, she had to eat it for the sake of her daughter’s face.

Since someone wanted her to make a fool of herself, she didn’t mind earning face for her daughter.

Hua Fei’s expression stiffened. She felt that the Eldest Princess was ridiculing her. She remembered that county princess Hui Ning and Princess An Yang had always been close to each other, and that they were closer to the Empress. She took this opportunity to clean up county princess Hui Ning and kill them.

Coupled with the fact that Hui Ning was going to marry Zhou Jingyan, It made her feel very uncomfortable. She just took this opportunity to embarrass county princess Huining. Not to mention, what county princess Huining suddenly said to the Jin Emperor two days ago made her a little alert. She smiled and said, “Eldest Princess, you’ve ruined me. Although my cooking skills aren’t very good, it’s enough to teach county princess Huining.”

The Eldest Princess raised her eyebrows. “Since that’s the case, Imperial Concubine Hua has become Hui Ning’s master for a day. I believe County Lord Hui Ning will be the second to try out the food prepared by his disciple. Imperial Concubine Hua has no objection, right?”

She seemed to be gentle every word, and she had already implied a threat.

If Imperial Concubine Hua did not accept it, she would naturally lose her face.

He dared to provoke, but he didn’t dare to accept the counterattack of others. This was a huge loss of face.

Sure enough, Hua Fei gritted her teeth and agreed.

The Jin Emperor’s expression was a little embarrassed. He glanced at Hua Fei and then looked at County Lord Hui Ning, who was not far away.

County princess Hui Ning was his niece. She was also losing face by making the food like this.

Sitting on the left, Rong Xun’s amber eyes were filled with mockery. The ebony ghost mask emitted an indifferent cold light. “Your Majesty, I didn’t expect that there were so many talented people in the Eastern Jin Dynasty who could make so many different kinds of meals. It has increased my knowledge.”

The Jin Emperor’s expression was ugly. If someone saw such an ugly scene, they would naturally become the target of attack. He coughed softly and said, “Country of Xiyue Prince, you should try the dishes that will increase your knowledge later.”

Rong Xun was indifferent and aloof as he sneered, “What the Jin Emperor said is extremely true. The Jin Emperor should also have a good taste.”

Yun Xiao listened to those people talking about the food county princess Hui Ning had prepared today. She was looking forward to seeing if these people who dared to say they wanted to try would really dare to eat it.

Looking outside again, he saw that there were already quite a few chicken feathers beside county princess Hui Ning. They were wet to the side, making people feel a little retched.

County Lord Hui Ning didn’t forget to add more firewood. Suddenly, at the corner of his eye, he saw some purple leaves on the woman’s desk next door. Coincidentally, the girl took two purple leaves and put them into the dish. He curiously moved over and said, “What is this leaf?”

“These are the leaves of Perilla. Adding them will remove the fishy smell and improve the taste,” the girl said as she quietly took a step back, away from the smell of chicken feathers on County Lord Hui Ning’s body.

On County Lord Huining’s bun, two shaky chicken feathers danced in the wind, looking extremely beautiful.

County princess Huining’s eyes lit up when she heard this, “Coincidentally, I made chicken soup. Give me some purple sauce.”

The girl hurriedly gave county princess Hui Ning a few purple leaves, and county princess Hui Ning immediately put them in. She smiled and said, “This county princess’ cooking today will definitely broaden everyone’s horizons.”

It was indeed an eye-opener, but it was a different kind of eye-opener.

The girl secretly cursed. Seeing that the things she had cooked were already ripe and the incense on the side was almost burnt out, she hurriedly put the things in the pot on a plate.

County princess Hui Ning also glanced at what was about to burn out, leaving behind only an inch of incense. At the corner of his eyes, he saw that everyone had already put out what they had made.

‘”I cooked it with them. Everything they cooked is cooked, so the chicken I cooked should be cooked too, right?” He murmured to himself.

Xiao Yuqi’s figure had already entered the main hall, and she didn’t care about anything else as she hurriedly pulled the chicken out.

When the chicken on the county magistrate Hui Ning’s spoon revealed its true appearance, everyone felt their scalps go numb. They saw that there were still many feathers on the chicken’s body, big and small, that hadn’t been removed.

Not only was it not cleanly removed, there was also a ball of black stuff behind the chicken’s butt.

When many people saw this scene, they lay on one side and started to retch.

Zhou Jingxu secretly hid behind Yun Xiao. Because he was close to the kitchen counter over there, he naturally saw this scene clearly. His expression was extremely embarrassed and his expression was awkward. “Wood, do you really think this kind of thing can be eaten? Aunt Changping and Hua Fei are competing for the first meal, and Father Emperor and Country of Xiyue of Prince are also competing for it.”

The corner of Yun Xiao’s mouth twitched. The four of them were not competing to eat. They clearly wanted the other party to eat more with all their might.

He laughed dryly and said, “You can also eat later.”

Zhou Jingxu sneered and the corner of his mouth twitched fiercely, “If I eat such a meal, I won’t have to eat for the next few days.” Just seeing it was enough, how could he eat it?

County princess Huining did not know what everyone was thinking as she smiled and walked into the hall with the food she had just cooked.

As soon as he entered, a peculiar fragrance came from his mouth, and Zhou Jingxu immediately spat out in disgrace.

This voice attracted county princess Huining’s gaze. She glanced at him with an unfriendly expression and threatened in a low voice, “Yunxiao, don’t be complacent. It will be you soon.”

Yun Xiao only chuckled and swept her gaze across the tray in County Lord Hui Ning’s hand. “Thank you for reminding me, County Lord.”

County princess Huining gritted her teeth angrily. In such a scene, she did not dare to retaliate. She could only walk forward with the chicken in her hand in order to get praise from the crowd. However, the two chicken feathers on her hair were extremely eye-catching.

As county princess Huining moved, she became extremely dazzling.

County Lord Hui Ning slowly walked forward with a smile on his lips. “Greetings, Your Majesty. The food Hui Ning is preparing today is ready. Please try it, Your Majesty.”

Eunuch Wei walked forward with a fake smile and placed a stack of flower notes with County Head Huining’s name on the tray.

The selection method today was the same as the last time in Imperial Kitchen. By having everyone take away the flowers under their favorite food, they could be considered voting for the candidates.

Before county princess Hui Ning could walk up to the hall, the Jin Emperor coughed softly, “Hui Ning, your mother is happy that this is your first time cooking a meal. She has just mentioned it to me. If you want to be the first to taste your meal, bring it to your mother first.”

County princess Huining thanked him and immediately turned around to walk to the eldest princess. However, when she saw that the eldest princess’s expression was not good, her heart skipped a beat and she felt that she had a bad feeling.

Sure enough, the Eldest Princess reached out and removed the two chicken feathers from her head. She said with a loving expression, “Forget it today. You can’t eat like this next time. Just now, in order to beg Imperial Concubine Hua, Mother has already recognized you as your master for a day. When the second person tries to eat, you can bring it to Imperial Concubine Hua.”

When County Lord Hui Ning saw the two chicken feathers in the Eldest Princess’ hands, her expression changed greatly. They were all blue and purple. No wonder she felt that everyone’s gaze had been on her. It turned out that it was because of these two chicken feathers!

However, county princess Hui Ning quickly returned to normal. “Daughter knows. Mother, quickly taste it.”

The Eldest Princess knew that she had to open this head first today. She held her chopsticks with trembling hands and found a place where the chicken feathers on the chicken belly were less. She picked up a piece of meat and stuffed it into her mouth.

Huala! Everyone’s gaze was fixed on the Eldest Princess’ mouth. An unconcealable admiration rose from the bottom of their hearts. Eldest Princess had truly earned enough face for County Lord Huining.

County Lord Hui Ning looked at the Eldest Princess’ trembling hands with an ignorant expression. He blinked his eyes and said, “Mother, what happened to your hand?”

The Eldest Princess did not know how long she had worked in her heart before swallowing that piece of chicken. She immediately felt her mouth dry, not for anything else, just because she was too idle. “I’m fine, hurry up and bring it to Imperial Concubine Hua to taste.”

“Daughter knows.” When county princess Hui Ning turned around, the eldest princess immediately picked up the teacup on the table and drank three cups of tea in a row. Only then did she feel that the salty taste in her mouth was better. However, when she thought of the appearance of the chicken she saw, her blood gushed and she wanted to spit it out.

He looked at Concubine Hua, who was not far away, and rolled his eyes. He endured the pain in his mouth and looked at Concubine Hua provocatively.

County princess Huining also walked in front of Concubine Hua. Her skirt was fluttering and the corner of her mouth was smiling. She saluted with a face full of joy. She lowered her eyebrows and said, “Please treat Concubine Hua to a taste.”
