Chapter 564 The smell of this stuff is very fragrant, but it is too hard to swallow
Chapter 564
After staying up all night, listening to the sounds of panic and chaos outside, the frightened Empress Xiao suddenly felt dizzy.
The frightened Eunuch Wang Zhong who was standing aside quickly stepped forward to help him. "My dear, my dear, what's wrong with you?"
"It's okay to be sad, I just feel a little dizzy and sweating..." Empress Xiao smiled reluctantly at Wang Zhong and sat up straight again.
At this moment, Queen Xiao suddenly sniffed. "What does it smell like? It smells weird..."
Wang Zhong's expression suddenly dawned, and he remembered that Empress Xiao was in a bad mood last night and had almost nothing to eat for dinner.
As a result, I stayed up all night again. It's strange that my body doesn't feel weak or dizzy at this moment.
Wang Zhong turned around and walked up to Master Duan and asked in a low voice, "Brother Duan, go and ask the warriors of Youtun Guard if they have anything to eat now."
"Your Majesty didn't eat anything last night, so she's feeling a little weak now."
Master Duan nodded and strode out. In a short time, he returned to the house with a few pieces of blackened dried meat and two dry and hard steamed buns in his hands.
"..." Wang Zhong looked at the food and his whole body felt bad.
Especially the blackened dried meat and the crumbling steamed buns made him, a eunuch who had lived a good life for almost half his life, no appetite at all, not to mention the pampered empress...
"Now the soldiers are working hard, there is really no way to cook, otherwise..."
Duan Shizi, who was also very particular about the food he put into his mouth, put aside the dried meat that was almost as hard as a stone and the steamed bun that kept falling off, and then put his hand into his arms.
He took out a cloth package, took out two sesame seed cakes from it, and handed them to Wang Zhong.
"If your Majesty doesn't mind it, you can take this thing first to satisfy your hunger."
"Hey, it smells pretty good..." Wang Zhong sniffed, and he was almost drooling as he was also hungry.
Queen Xiao's voice also came from behind her. "That's what it smells like, Wang Daban, what is it?"
"Empress, these are the sesame cakes presented by Duan Xiaoguan, as well as the dried meat and steamed buns given by the sergeant outside..."
"That's it. It looks pretty good." Queen Xiao's eyes glanced at the black dried meat and the khaki crumbled steamed bun.
It landed on the sesame seed cake that was roasted to a fragrant aroma and sprinkled with sesame seeds, which made people very appetizing at first sight.
Then, creak, creak, creak... Empress Xiao, the widow of the Emperor of the Sui Dynasty, the top leader of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the number one eunuch of the Sui Dynasty, Wang Zhong.
And Duan Shizi, the righteous Peter Pan who followed Yang Qian, the leader of the Jingnan Army, to conquer the east and west.
The three of them were silent, one holding a piece of sesame cake, squeaking... No way, Duan Shizi's specially baked sesame cake had to be eaten by grinding one's teeth.
As a result, this strange combination appeared indoors, and the creaking sound at first made the right guard sergeant guarding outside look back curiously.
Unfortunately, I saw Wang Zhong, the strong eunuch, and Duan Shizi, the righteous Peter Pan, both holding sesame cakes and standing at the door chewing them.
The smell and the squeaking sound made the sergeant so greedy that he almost drooled. He subconsciously reached into his arms, hoping to touch some food to satisfy his craving.
Only then did he suddenly realize that the little general Duan who had just done that had collected all the private goods of dry food for himself and others.
You went all out to collect it and just ate it. Why didn't you eat it? You just didn't know where you got such delicious sesame seed cakes and squatted at the door to eat them.
"Bitch!" Several soldiers who resented Taotian couldn't help shouting in unison in their hearts.
Seeing those pairs of resentful eyes, Wang Zhong was quite trembling, but the problem is that he didn't get the cake by himself. It has nothing to do with our family. If you have the ability, just go and glare at the person next to us.
As for Mr. Duan, the righteous Peter Pan with such a strong heart that he could not stand still even if he turned the world upside down, he met those pairs of eyes, unhurriedly, and squeaking contentedly.
The chewing sounds of the two people covered up Queen Xiao who was sitting on the couch, happily chewing sesame seed cakes.
"This thing is very fragrant, but it's hard to swallow. It would be nice to have some broth..." Queen Xiao couldn't help but muttered in a low voice, then opened her red lips lightly and continued to bite the sesame cake...

When the sky was bright, all four gates were broken, and a large number of Jingnan Army soldiers had completely controlled the four gates of Tancheng.
The rebels in the city gave up resistance one after another, or they imitated the right guards to break up the chaos and fight back against the stubborn enemies who were loyal to the Yuwen clan.
At this time, the county government office in Tancheng, where the Tan Kingdom Palace built by Yu Wenhuaji was located, was already on fire.
At this moment, the Jingnan Army, which had raided the county government area, also learned from the Tan Imperial Guards that Yu Wenhua, his father and son, and Yu Wenzhi were afraid of being captured alive and had committed suicide by taking poison.
The soldiers who were loyal to them sent them to the palace, and there was news that they had set themselves on fire.
And Yang Qian tried to enter Tancheng several times, but was blocked by the civil and military men under his command, repeating the saying that a gentleman will not stand behind a dangerous wall.
The remaining enemies in the city have not yet been wiped out. As the leader of the Jingnan Army, Yang Qian must not take risks lightly.
Yang Qian had no choice but to order people to find Maza. Wearing heavy armor, he could only sit on the high platform with a dark face, waiting for the news to come.
At this time, Qin Qiong, under the leadership of Liu Zhi, had just crossed the gate of the mansion and rushed in. In a short time, he saw the heavily guarded room in front of him.
He hurriedly walked a few steps and knelt down at the foot of the stairs as a salute. "Your Majesty, Qin Qiong, is ordered by the Commander-in-Chief to kill the rebels in Tancheng in order to welcome Empress Luan..."
Seeing the tall and burly Qin Qiong, and hearing the name of the Jingnan Army, Queen Xiao finally let out a long breath.
Now that the generals of the Jingnan Army have come to him, it naturally shows that the most critical moment has passed.
"Thank you for your hard work, Qin Qing's family. Please get up quickly. What's the situation in the city now?"
"There are still remnants of the rebels in the city who are fighting stubbornly, but our army has controlled all the key places in the city. I believe it won't be long before the chaos in Tan City can be settled."
While they were talking to each other, a general of the Jingnan Army hurried over. "General, something bad is going on..."
"What happened?!" Qin Qiong turned around and shouted.
"The three thieves, Yu Wenji, Yu Wenzhiji and Yu Wen Chengji, committed suicide by taking poison and were burned in the Tancheng County government office..."
"..." Qin Qiong's whole body felt bad. What the hell, he had promised Yang Qian that he would try to capture Yu Wenhuaji and Yuwen Zhiji alive.
It's good now, those bastards actually committed suicide. Not only did they commit suicide, they also burned their bodies to wipe out any traces.
"Brother Yuwen... they should still be alive." At this moment, a dry voice came from behind.
"???" Qin Qiong turned her head in confusion and looked at Master Duan.
