Chapter 43: The Seventh Chapter: The Friendship of Stealing Together
As he tiptoed toward the depths of the kitchen, he suddenly saw a figure passing by the shelf with pastries next to the stove. The figure walked quickly, for fear that Yaoyue would catch him sideways. At this point, why didn't he follow him?
The same little eunuch who came to steal food when he was not full! However, Yaoyue would not let the man slip away. He stretched out his hand and grabbed the man's arm and said: "Brother, don't leave, you are here to steal food too?"
"
"..."
Yaoyue tugged his hand again and said: "Since everyone is hungry, let's eat together here, otherwise it will be bad if we go out and get caught. The little emperor can stay here tonight, and he will be guarded outside.
There are quite a few eunuchs."
"Oh." The man responded and did not resist. Instead, he sat down next to Yaoyue.
In the dark room, Yaoyue couldn't see clearly who was next to her or what she was holding, so she sat down next to him. The man was kind enough and gave Yaoyue a piece of the stolen osmanthus cake.
Yue said: "It's very delicious. I especially like this."
Yaoyue took it indifferently and took a bite. The sweet-scented osmanthus cake was sweet and waxy, with a slight citric aroma. It was refreshing in the mouth and was indeed delicious.
He stuffed the sweet-scented osmanthus cake into his mouth in twos and twos, and the person next to him handed him another lotus cake.
"What's wrong? Didn't you have enough to eat tonight?" the man asked him.
"Isn't it? The emperor is here, and there are the emperor's guards and eunuchs guarding the door. We can only be driven back to sleep. We haven't eaten at all." Yaoyue said and took a big bite of lotus cake, "What about you, you
Aren’t you full yet?”
"Yeah," the person next to me took a dull bite of the pastry, "I can only eat a little of this, I can only eat a little of that...it's not like feeding chickens."
"Hmm? Do you want to eat smoked chicken?" Yaoyue suddenly thought of the purpose of his trip, "I heard that the smoked chicken in Jiaguiren's small kitchen is the most delicious."
"Chicken, are you here?" The person next to him hesitated for a moment, "Is it too oily?"
"What are you afraid of? We just came here to eat when we were hungry." Yaoyue said, standing up and starting to fumble around the stove, but it was too dark in the kitchen to see clearly. Yaoyue thought
, it shouldn't matter if you secretly use fairy magic to get some light. He looked around cautiously and couldn't see the people next to him clearly, so he probably wouldn't care too much.
After muttering a secret in his mouth, a faint light appeared in Yaoyue's hand. The light shone on the stove, and Yaoyue accurately saw the smoked chicken that had not been eaten by Jiagui during the day. He happily tore the smoked chicken into pieces.
Cut it in half and handed the big half to the person sitting on the ground.
Because of the bright light, Yaoyue finally saw clearly the person eating secretly in the small kitchen with him...
It's actually the little emperor with the mask!
Yaoyue was startled and almost dropped the smoked chicken in her hand.
"Why is it you?"
The little emperor raised his head slightly, still holding a lot of cakes in his arms. He muttered: "Why can't it be me?"
"..." Yaoyue moved her Adam's apple, but still squatted down, "Why are you wearing a mask so late at night? Speaking of which...is the Emperor's food so unpalatable that you are so hungry that you come to eat it in the middle of the night?
"
"Well, the royal family has rules. The emperor cannot be more than seventy full after eating." The little emperor sighed, "If you eat in this noble palace, you will not be full."
Yaoyue burst out laughing and handed the torn smoked chicken to the little emperor: "Now, eat this. Those pastries are not enough."
The little emperor glanced sideways, but still shook his head: "This tastes too strong."
"Oh, yes. You have to go back and sleep with Jia Guiren later." Yaoyue said and took a bite of smoked chicken.
The little emperor seemed to smile and asked: "Why, you don't treat me as an outsider at all? If it were anyone else, you would have bowed to me long ago."
Yaoyue also laughed: "At this time, there is no one else. We have a friendship of stealing food together. I want to bow and kowtow to you, but I am not allowed to attract others? The person who is serving you sees you sitting here.
If you eat secretly, your image won’t look good, right?”
Having said that, Yaoyue thought to herself, nonsense, I am a Nine-tailed Fox Immortal, how can I bow and kowtow to you three times, I'm afraid you won't succeed.
The little emperor smiled but said nothing.
So with this weak light, the two of them sat by the stove in the small kitchen, one gnawing on the chicken, and the other eating snacks in small bites. The two seemed quite harmonious.
It turns out that this little emperor is quite a nice person.
The two of them ate for a while, and the little emperor pulled out a handkerchief from nowhere and threw it to Yaoyue so that he could wipe his oily hands.
"Hey, do you think it's okay for you not to accompany your beloved lady in the middle of the night?" Yaoyue looked out the window and asked in a low voice.
The little emperor groaned and did not answer.
"Then it's time for you to go back. It will be dawn if you don't go back."
"Oh." The little emperor stood up and gave Yaoyue a hand. But looking at him, he didn't seem to want to go to the small kitchen.
Yaoyue felt sleepy after eating and drinking enough. He yawned loudly and said, "Your Majesty, please go back and rest quickly."
"I know." The little emperor's face fell, and his voice became cold and cold, just like the tone he used when talking to the Queen Mother in Yongshou Palace some time ago. Yaoyue could tell something in her heart, this little emperor might be really
I have no ability, so I am not interested in any of his good people. But every time I come here and don't stay overnight, I will inevitably be talked about by the courtiers, so I have no choice but to show off and spend the night here. It may be that I go out to eat in the middle of the night.
Being hungry may be an excuse to avoid that noble man.
However, this emperor was extremely good at Qinggong. It looked like he had a lot of skill in him. He jumped out of the window behind the small kitchen without even making a sound, and quickly disappeared into the night.
middle.
It's completely different from what you see on TV. This little emperor is really easy to get along with and has no airs. The most important thing is... staying with him, even if it's just less than ten minutes, makes Yaoyue feel better.
There is a feeling of reassurance and familiarity. It's like Korea, and it's more like the state of staying with hxx for dinner and not having to think about anything.
However, early the next morning, Yaoyue was sleeping soundly in the ear room when he was suddenly woken up by several young eunuchs. He was dazed, but he heard one of the eunuchs on duty say: "Xizhong, you are lucky, the emperor summoned you
You go to the front hall to serve!"
"Huh?" As soon as Yaoyue rubbed her eyes, she was pulled out of bed by the young eunuch on duty, and said hurriedly: "Go and change your clothes quickly to thank me. You don't have to wait on Jia Guiren from now on!"
