"Well, it's delicious. This yogurt is delicious. The various fruity flavors combined with the sweet and fragrant yogurt are very refreshing. I want to eat it again." The Queen Mother commented.
"Yes! Yes, the queen is right. What kind of yogurt is this? It's really delicious. Is it made of milk?" The emperor also ate again and again, but there were only a few pieces on the plate, and he almost finished it.
"Back to the emperor, yes, it is fermented with milk, and some sugar is added to increase the sweetness." Ye Qingcheng replied.
"I also feel that the food is good! Miss Ye is indeed the daughter of the prime minister, and this dessert is so delicious!" the queen said with a smile.
I'm just complimenting people, and I even brought the Prime Minister's daughter, who is not a legitimate daughter, for fear of giving Ye Qianying face. What does delicious cooking have to do with the Prime Minister?
The queen, mother and son value this engagement very much, but whether the prince values it now is another matter.
The four virtuous and virtuous concubines did not seem to have any sense of presence. They all smiled and ate dignifiedly.
"The Ai family saw that you brought up another big thing. Is that considered food?" The Queen Mother had almost finished eating the fruit. She felt that the sweet was quite good and pointed at the eight-layered birthday cake that Ye Qingcheng pushed up and asked.
After saying this, everyone seemed a little hungry. After hearing what the Queen Mother said, they all looked up.
Ye Qingcheng bowed and said, "Back to the Queen Mother, that is a birthday gift specially made for the Queen Mother, a birthday cake!"
"Oh? Birthday cake? The name is interesting. Open it quickly and take a look." The Queen Mother was very interested.
Ye Qingcheng walked over, personally untied the rope above, and uncovered the red cloth.
An exquisite pagoda-shaped round cake was revealed.
"Wow...what is that? A peony?"
"Is the one on top a peach? Why is it so big?"
"It doesn't look like the real thing, it's made of something else, but it looks very similar!"
The following discussion reached Ye Qingcheng's ears.
He smiled softly, "My Queen Mother, this is actually a kind of dessert, that is, pastry. I have seen it in a travel book. There is a custom in Western countries that says eating cakes on your birthday can drive away evil spirits and bring good luck. However, I
I don’t really believe how powerful a piece of cake can be, but it’s true that this cake is delicious!”
"Oh? You said this is a pastry? Did you make these realistic flowers and peaches?" At this time, the Queen Mother had already forgotten about the fruit she had not eaten enough, and stood up and walked towards
The birthday cake should be almost as high as her shoulders.
"Yes, I made it by boiling various fruits into jam and mixing it with cream. The cream is made from eggs and milk!" Ye Qingcheng followed the Queen Mother and supported her to explain.
"Aijia feels that the closer we get, the better the aroma. This must be sweeter than fruit." The Queen Mother couldn't wait to try it.
Those princesses and ladies mentioned couldn’t sit still.
Women are naturally creatures that love sweets, so they must be unable to resist such a huge temptation.
Especially Princess Xiyue, who has already run up, and Princess Yingyue is also ready to make a move, but she is more disciplined and not as willful as her two sisters.
"Empress Dowager, how about I cut this birthday peach for you?" Ye Qingcheng now likes the character of the Empress Dowager. Although He Lian'er is the most loved by the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager does not defend He indiscriminately.
Lotus.
Now it seems that she is also a foodie, just like herself. Such a person cannot be broken, so she is willing to get closer to her.
There were no birthday candles, and there was no cake-cutting and wish-making ceremony. It was just a simple sharing of food. Ye Qingcheng knew that it would be impossible for other customs to appear in the Tiansheng Palace.
"Okay, the Ai family will just eat this longevity peach. It looks so delicious!" The Queen Mother waved her hand and monopolized a large amount of the longevity peach.
As soon as Ye Qingcheng put the longevity peaches on the plate, Zuo Yan hurriedly brought it up, and the maids also helped the Queen Mother up.
"Qingcheng, cut this peony flower for me quickly. I want to eat this piece!" Princess Xiyue circled around the cake.
"How outrageous. Even my father and mother have not eaten, so you want to eat it yourself?" The emperor refused and his expression immediately changed.
What a joke, the new food made by the girl from the Ye family is so delicious, and these pastries are even more delicious just looking at them, how could he let it go.
So, Princess Xiyue and Ye Qingcheng worked together to distribute the cakes to the ladies and princesses who were making them.
When the fourth prince saw Ye Qingcheng walking towards the princes carrying the cut cake, he immediately waved.
"Sister Qingcheng, this prince looks very good, please give me a try!"
Princess Xiyue was originally going to send it to Jun Mochen, but when he heard the fourth prince calling her Qingcheng's sister, he stopped Ye Qingcheng in his tracks and took the cake directly from the tray.
Ye Qingcheng was stunned. She remembered that this person didn't seem to like sweets. Why was he so eager today?
"Princess Xiyue will send it right away, the Fourth Prince can wait a little longer!" Ye Qingcheng shrugged.
"Fourth brother, do you want to eat the cake or the cake sent by the beauty?" the third prince said again.
"Third brother, what do you mean, Xiyue is not beautiful?" At this time, Princess Xiyue had already walked over. Seeing that Uncle Zhan already had it, she naturally brought the cake here.
"Seventh sister is of course the most beautiful!" The third prince was questioned and instantly became frightened.
This royal girl has a very explosive personality. If he dares to say that she is not beautiful, she might get beaten.
"This is really delicious. It's even better than the fruit platter just now. Come on, cut the cake and share it for everyone to try! It's a great time for the Ai family!"
He was boiling with excitement, "Thank you, Queen Mother, and thank you, Your Majesty."
Just as the palace maids were about to finish dividing the cakes, He Lian'er and Princess Chenyang walked in one after another, with the palace maids behind carrying trays.
Seeing the scene in Wuyang Palace, the two of them were stunned for a moment. Seeing that the Queen Mother, the Emperor, the Empress and even the empresses were all eating with their heads down and had no time to look at them, the two of them came closer.
Princess Xiyue happened to see it. She ran forward and said, "Sixth sister, you are finally here. My sister has left a piece of cake for you. Eat it quickly! It's too late!"
"What kind of cake?" Princess Chenyang was stunned for a moment, then came back to her senses and said, "Let's leave it for now. Cousin Lian'er has prepared a dish for the competition and wants to give it to the Imperial Grandmother to try!"
"You don't want to eat this, then you're welcome, sister!" Princess Xiyue turned around with the tray.
He Lian'er hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, "Aunt, Lian'er has already prepared the dish. Please give it a try!"
The palace maid immediately brought a tray up.
As the two people said, there are various kinds of meat on the plate, and the prepared sauce is next to it, and then... nothing more.
"Aunt, this is a dish specially made by Lian'er for her aunt's birthday. Its name is famous all over the world. It is cooked with the meat of various birds and animals..." He Lian'er Balabala made up a story for her dish.
"Is there only one plate like this?" the Queen Mother raised her head and asked.
"...is...ah?" He Lian'er was interrupted and asked another inexplicable question, and she answered at a loss.
"Okay, let's put it here. Don't you still have a painting competition? Let's start quickly! Let's judge the winner and loser together in the next two rounds!"
The Queen Mother just said a word, and He Lian'er was taken away inexplicably.
The table has been prepared in the palace for a long time. As soon as I finished cooking the hot dishes, I was about to start painting.
