The Eighth Wise King became addicted to eavesdropping on the silly princess' thoughts

After finally sending the visitor from the palace away, Butler Zhao's back was already soaked with cold sweat.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead and ordered the doorman: "Keep the gates closed. No one in the palace is allowed to go out without my permission these days."

Luo Li, who received two boxes of treasures, didn't care about the danger just now, and hurriedly directed several servants to help her carry the boxes into the private warehouse where the dowry was stored.

Yingchun followed to help, and anxiously instructed the servants to carry the precious red coral and night pearl to the palace storehouse and store them properly.

The princess didn't want such valuable items, but only wanted the two boxes of spices. Even the servants in the palace knew which items were the most valuable.

Luo Li had someone open the vermilion lacquered wooden box and squatted there to check the spices inside.

She took out a gray-brown object to check its age, and then grabbed a handful of white chips from another wooden box to check their quality.

The result made her shout out in excitement!

: "As beautiful as a flower, as beautiful as jade! We are going to be rich!"

The princess had no interest in the precious treasures, but was overly fond of the spices in the two wooden boxes.

Yingchun couldn't help but ask curiously, "Princess, these dragon's birthday incense and camphor incense are just spices. Although they are precious, their value is far less than those rare treasures! If you like, we still have ten boxes in the big storehouse of our palace! ”

: "Really?" Luo Li almost jumped up with excitement.

The princess was so lively and cute that Yingchun couldn't help but burst out laughing!

"Really? They are all gifts from the palace. The prince doesn't like to use spices very much. If you like them, you can ask the prince for them."

"If I ask Butler Zhao, can I get it?"

Yingchun shook her head and said, "Although Butler Zhao holds the key to the warehouse, he is just a servant in charge. If the princess wants something in the warehouse, she needs to ask the prince for help."

Yingchun thought that Madam Lin, who was in charge of the household expenses in the palace, also had this right, but she couldn't let the princess, the real mistress, ask her for it, right?

Luo Li was immediately deflated. She didn't want to ask the King of Qin for anything.

For making perfume, the dragon's birth incense and camphor are one of the best materials. However, these two spices cannot be bought even if you have money. After the overseas merchants transport them here, they can only be supplied to the royal family in the palace.

Although ministers could also receive some rewards during festivals, my father, a third-rank official, could only save a few pounds at home, which were all spent by her long ago.

Yingchun saw that the princess had lost her excitement and was just holding a piece of dragon incense and thinking.

"Princess, I only know that dragon's birth incense and camphor incense are produced overseas. What exactly are they made of?"

Luo Li looked at Yingchun and Ruhua who were eager to learn, and shook the gray-brown piece of dragon incense in her hand.

"That box of white icy camphor comes from a kind of incense tree overseas. As for this dragon-birth incense! Don't feel sick after hearing it!"

This made Ruhua and Yingchun even more curious.

Siyu was anxious to find out the truth, "Miss, please stop keeping us in suspense and tell us the truth!"

"There is a huge whale in the distant sea, and among the whales there is a sperm whale. These dragon incense are actually secretions from the sperm whale's intestines, which are..."

Before Luo Li could finish her words, Yingchun covered her mouth and was about to vomit because of nausea.

Although Ruhua and Siyu felt it was novel, they didn't react much.

After all! They were trained by the young lady to eat even animal intestines. Although the Dragon's Birthday Incense is an animal intestinal secretion, it is not for eating, right?

Yingchun covered her mouth, her stomach churning for a while, but she forced herself not to vomit.

Ruhua and Siyu looked at her joke and both of them were laughing so hard that they were shaking with laughter.

Yingchun sighed, "Oh! I didn't expect that this precious spice that only the royal family can use is actually the feces in the intestines of animals!"

Luo Li corrected herself, "It's not feces, it's the secretions from the sperm whale's intestines."

Yingchun couldn't imagine what the secretions in the intestines looked like. "Isn't that different? The butcher who slaughters pigs knows best what the secretions in the intestines look like!"

Ruhua and Siyu looked at each other and decided to let Yingchun taste the dish herself if they had the chance!

Luo Li brought her maid back to Ning Xin Garden and saw King Qin dozing on the elaborately crafted bed, with the Ghost Hand Poison Doctor sitting in the dormitory watching over him.

Luo Li collapsed softly on the chaise longue, "Ruhua, your young lady is hungry again, quickly ask Tingting to get me something to eat."

Ruhua was busy making tea for the young lady, and replied with a sweet smile, "Tingting has already prepared it. Miss, please wait a moment, the fragrant sesame cake will be ready soon."

The Ghost Hand Poison Doctor immediately pricked up his ears, "What kind of delicious food is this fragrant sesame cake?"

Yingchun, standing at the entrance of the hall, also heard everything clearly, and wondered if her own prince was hungry or not? She wondered what he wanted to eat.

Ever since the prince entered the bridal chamber last night, Sister Ruhua sent the four of them to the east wing, and the people serving in the main room were all the princess's dowry.

After daybreak, the four of them were allowed to come in and wait in the hall.

Sister Ruhua is good in other aspects, but she is too overbearing in this aspect.

How can the four of us compete for favor with you, the confidants brought by the princess as a dowry? We are just worried that you will not serve the prince well.

The Ghost Hand Poison Doctor sipped the fragrant tea while flattering the young master.

"Master, you really know how to eat and drink. This tea is much better when simply brewed with water than tea that has been beaten into foam and added with ingredients. The fragrance is refreshing, moisturizing the lungs, and quenching thirst!"

Luo Li, who had never been fond of the thick tea of ​​this era, took the teacup and took a few sips.

"Old ghost, do you think this tea is so fragrant just by brewing it? My tea leaves are precious!

It uses the young buds of Longjing tea from before the rain, and is stir-fried using a special method. This cup is worth one tael of silver, but you have spent three taels of silver! You should keep this in mind.”

The Ghost Hand Poison Doctor's hand holding the teacup trembled!

: [These few sips of water cost only one ounce of silver? Why don't you go and rob them? How can there be someone more shameless than me in this world? ]

Tingting came in with a plate of fragrant freshly-baked sesame cake and placed it on the table.

"Miss, the cake is ready, you should fill your stomach quickly. I have also prepared the big oven in the dowry, and I have marinated the duck. Let it air-dry overnight, and you can eat roast duck tomorrow."

Luo Li picked up a piece of cake with satisfaction, stuffed it into her mouth and praised, "Tingting, it's great to have you around. Your young lady's stomach will never be wronged."

Tingting's face flushed with excitement after receiving the young lady's praise.

"Miss, please tell me what you want to eat. I have been thinking about the spicy strips you mentioned these days! When I figure it out, you can try it, okay?"

"Okay! Your young lady is waiting to eat!"

Luo Li smiled so hard that her teeth were showing. With a baby like Tingting who is obsessed with cooking, she is finally going to have a good time in this life!

Tingting went out happily. There was a plate of cake in the kitchen, and she wanted to serve it to her sisters while it was still hot!

The Ghost Hand Poison Doctor looked at the plate of fragrant cake on the table and saw that his master was only busy eating and talking to the maid, not even looking at his disciple who was drooling with greed.

Without bothering to act reserved, he picked up a piece and took a bite without hesitation.

: "Not bad! Sweet and soft, just right for the taste of an old man like me!"

Luo Li glared at the old man who had no ambition when it came to eating, and ignored him.

The King of Qin was dozing off on the bed. He could smell the delicious aroma and felt extremely hungry.

That small bowl of shredded chicken noodles has long disappeared. You guys are eating and drinking so happily, don’t you know that I would be hungry too?

Where have all the maids in the mansion gone?

The King of Qin coughed, and... no one paid any attention to him!

"Master, what kind of delicacy is your spicy strips?" The Ghost Hand Poison Doctor was thinking about the spicy strips that the maid Tingting mentioned.

The King of Qin was so angry that he sat up with a thud, and the wound on his chest felt like it had been cut by a knife.

He leaned his back against the cushions and shouted majestically, "Someone come! I'm hungry, bring me some sesame cakes."

Ruhua and Siyu, who were standing nearby serving the young lady, were about to move when Luo Li reached out to stop them.

"What are you two doing? The King of Qin summoned the servants from his palace."

Yingchun, who was standing at the door of the main hall, hurriedly stuffed the half-eaten piece of cake given to her by Miss Tingting into the hands of Banxia who was standing next to her.

The prince was calling her, and she was so scared that she quickly responded and lifted the bead curtain to go into the room.

She bowed and said, "Your Highness, sesame cake... the servants have already distributed the food outside. What do you want to eat? I will ask the kitchen to make it right away."

The King of Qin was stunned with anger!

When did the servants in the palace become so unruly?

The delicious food was secretly shared out and eaten, but you didn’t remember that the master was still hungry?

The Ghost Hand Poison Doctor poured a cup of tea, took a piece of cake and walked over.

: "You little brat! It's your uncle who loves you!"
