The golden crow fell in the west, the light slowly faded, and the brightness was about to disappear. Yan Sinian stood in front of the window, looking at this bleak winter, feeling the chill brought by the cold wind as the dusk suffused the entire palace.

He listened to An Yi's report and the reactions of all parties in the capital, and rubbed the jade token left to him by the Holy Light in his hand. When he heard the movements of the censors, bloodthirsty light flashed in his eyes. He said coldly: "It seems that tomorrow morning, if we fail to achieve a few [outspoken] loyal ministers, they will be sorry for the sacrifice and blood they are planning to shed."

On this side, Yan Sinian is preparing for a massacre tomorrow morning.

The smell of the chicken soup in the dining room has already aroused everyone's greed. The preparations for the evening meal have been completed, but no one has left the dining room. Everyone was here looking for something to do, but they were all looking at Xiao Huizi, and saw that he had already skimmed out several pots of Huang Dengdeng's chicken fat in the pot. Not to mention the chicken that hasn't been served yet, these pots of oil alone make many people salivate.

This thing couldn't be put away, so Xiao Huizi directly put these basins on the empty table aside. You can take whatever you want. The little palace people haven't figured out what to eat from this oil, so they don't want it either. But those who have been working in the dining room for several years like this very much. Several people join together to take a large bowl, make a soup when the time comes, sprinkle some salt, and use it to soak the steamed buns when it is time to put the rice. , that is a unique flavor.

But more people are waiting for the cooked chicken.

While waiting, everyone was chatting away, and the conversation turned into talking about the most fragrant meat they have ever eaten and what kind of meat is the most delicious? Some say it is mutton, others say it is venison. Some say it’s bear meat. Some people say that when the fragrant meat rolls around, even the gods can’t stand still. I don't know whether it was because they were worried about Yunba, or because they were frightened by An'er's appearance that morning, but no one mentioned beef.

There was an old eunuch who specialized in sweeping the floor in the dining room. He almost lost all his teeth. When he heard these people talk about meat, he opened his toothless mouth and said unwillingly: "Look at how crazy you are, what else is better than meat?" To eat, you have to enter the palace and come here to have a bite of meat. If you are outside, you can just look forward to eating meat during the New Year. You should also be grateful to my prosperous dynasty. If this were in the previous dynasty, Don't even think about it." As he spoke, he shook his head, just like those scholars reciting books, and read: "In the previous dynasty, princes were not allowed to kill cows without reason. Officials were not allowed to kill sheep without reason. Scholars were not allowed to kill sheep without reason. Dogs and pigs. Common people do not eat precious things for no reason. Chickens, dolphins, and dogs eat. Those who have not lost their food for seventy years can eat meat. Do you understand? If you want to eat meat, you must be like me and have passed seventy years."

"You are always over seventy, but you still have no teeth, how can you eat meat! Hahaha!" Although Xiao Huizi laughed and teased the old eunuch, she still picked up two in the pot. The chicken wings that had been cooked to the bone were placed in front of the old eunuch.

The old eunuch thanked Xiao Huizi, held the meat in his hands and looked at the other people who also laughed because of Xiao Huizi's words. He also laughed, pointed at them and said: "This meat and that meat you are talking about are all Mortal meat, do you know [celestial meat]?”

【Tianrou? 】Having eaten a little too much chicken, Xiaoba, who was nibbling on the radish cubes in his hand to relieve his tiredness, pricked up his ears.

After hearing this, a few good people hurriedly asked: "Heavenly meat? What kind of meat is that! It can't be [Dragon]..." Before the last word of this person could be uttered, someone was He covered his mouth, and the people next to him were busy glaring at him, meaning "I don't want my life, can I say that word casually?" 】

The old eunuch seemed to have bad ears and only heard the first half of the sentence. He squinted his eyes and replied: "This heavenly meat is not the meat of any animal, but a piece of meat that is born from nature. That kind of meat is rare in the world. Legend has it that Your Majesty There is a piece in the palace, placed on an agate plate, and it was brought as tribute from the South Vietnam Kingdom. Let’s compare it to meat! This meat given by God is unique.”

Xiaoba was shocked, there was meat in this world that did not grow on animals! It sounds like there is only one piece, not even the prince and beauty! Xiaoba decided to go and learn more. If he could take it out, it would be best and give it to the prince to eat with him. If he couldn't take it out, then he should find an opportunity to take a bite and taste this unique taste. According to the Anjiu Cult, you must steal while the emperor is in the house so that no one else is harmed. If the imperial concubine lost a few pieces of snacks, she would kill two people. If the emperor lost only one piece of meat, more people would definitely die. As long as the emperor was around, he would be embarrassed to express his anger to others. (What a pity! Xiaoba only thought about the first floor and not the second floor. Stealing things in front of the emperor would make him even more angry!!!) But if the emperor is in the room, then that annoying Su The guy will also be there, and I have to find a way to lure him away.

……

Time passed, and Xishi had been led up by someone from the palace maid in the outer courtyard. The last few steps of the soup stock in the pot have been left, and the chicken in the soup has also been taken out and shared among everyone. The bustling dining room returned to calm. Xiaoba's appetite was not particularly good tonight. She kept thinking about the piece of heavenly meat and only ate three bowls of rice for dinner.

Just when Yun Ba was thinking about whether she should explore the road tonight, a black shadow flew towards her head from the window with a "swish" sound. Yun Ba reached out his hand and caught it. In the hand, I found a millet seed.

At this time, An Jiu secretly exposed half of his head outside the window next to Yun Ba and waved to her. Yun Bayi waved his hand, extinguished the fire in the kitchen hall, and left the dining room without disturbing anyone.

There were a lot more people in the east palace tonight than usual. The main reason was that the meat was distributed in the dining room. Anyone who didn't have one or two friends and those who got the meat had gone out to have a relationship. In addition, there were some people whispering in the nooks and crannies, leaving Xiao Ba and An Jiu with no place to eat chestnuts. It was a cold day and they didn't want to go to the roof.

So they found a rockery stone leeward from the wind in the imperial garden.

An Jiu gave Xiao Ba a bag of sugar-roasted chestnuts and said to Xiao Ba: "The boss has recently arranged a new job for me. I may have to leave for a while. I promised to take you out of the palace to eat delicious food during the Chinese New Year. , it may have to wait until after the new year.”

Xiaoba waved her hand indifferently. Anyway, someone took her to have a big dinner during the Chinese New Year, and she didn't care whether she could go outside the palace. They say that all the delicacies in the world can be found in the palace, but she hasn't eaten them all in three years. Today she discovered another piece of heavenly meat, and the outside just can't attract her yet.

An Jiu saw that Xiaoba was eating chestnuts and didn't pay attention to what he said, but he didn't care either. Anyway, even if she gets into trouble, it won't be her companion who gets beaten, and there is also the prince behind her to support her.

Sighing, An Jiu turned around and wanted to leave. At this time, Xiao Ba suddenly raised his head and asked An Jiu: "Does Su Laiguang never leave the emperor's side? I saw that even when the emperor was sleeping, he would stay outside the window." On."

An Jiu was startled and looked at Xiaoba: "What do you want to do?"

Xiao Ba thought for a while and told An Jiu that there was only one piece of meat and she wanted to share it with the beautiful prince, not her friends, so she couldn't tell him. So she said: "It's nothing, I just feel that he is there every day, and if I get closer, I will be discovered by him. I haven't entered the emperor's palace yet."

"What are you doing there? The food there is all sent in by the imperial dining room. If you want to eat, go to the imperial dining room to find it. Let me tell you, apart from those who are hidden in the world, among the famous masters in the world, that Eunuch Su is ranked among the best. He is in front, and it is impossible for him to leave His Majesty's side unless the mountains and rivers pour back and the winter thunder thunders."
