The head chef ignored the frightened and confused chefs.

Instead, he quickly got up and went to report to his boss, Eunuch Liu, the eunuch chief of the Shangshi Department who was also responsible for the royal food and the purchase of vegetables, fruits and meat for the palace!

As the chief eunuch of the Palace Food Department, Eunuch Liu is quite prestigious among the many eunuch positions in the palace.

Although he cannot serve the emperor at close range on weekdays, he is the most loyal lackey around Eunuch Shi of the Palace Internal Affairs Office.

As for Eunuch Shi of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, he was one of the most favored eunuchs around Emperor Yan Nandu.

The emperor's three meals a day were all arranged by Eunuch Shi of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

The Ministry of Internal Affairs is responsible for the jurisdiction of the Department of Food, the Department of Sleeping, the Department of Service, etc.

Shang Food Division: Palace food purchaser and general manager of the royal kitchen.

Shang Bed Secretary: Responsible for the emperor and his concubines going to bed, etc.

Department of Shangfu: Responsible for the clothes of the emperor and concubines, etc.

Eunuch Shi was the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and a popular figure around the emperor.

The chief chef did not dare to waste time and quickly found Eunuch Liu.

Eunuch Liu was lying on the bed, having sweet dreams, and was soundly asleep.

His position is lucrative, relaxed and comfortable. There is no hard work at all during the weekdays. He can also go out to the palace from time to time to eat wild food.

Although the thing below was sacrificed, it did not affect his manual operation when it arrived at Yihongyuan!

"Pa bang bang... Eunuch Liu... bang bang bang... Eunuch Liu..."

The head chef was panting heavily, knocking on the door and shouting out of breath.

It's almost dawn.

How dare he waste time?

He ran all the way so fast that he didn't even have time to rest on the way.

As he ran, he looked pale and was sweating profusely.

"What are you shouting for?? What are you shouting for before dawn??" Eunuch Liu was so angry that his sweet dream was disturbed, and he screamed angrily outside.

He had just dreamed that he was not only the red man beside the emperor, but also...his little bird was intact.

He slept with all the concubines and maids in the palace, and even the new concubines accepted by the emperor were the first ones he slept with.

Such a beautiful dream was interrupted, and he was so angry that he blew his beard and stared, wishing that he could tear the guy who was screaming outside into pieces.

Cold sweat dripped down the chef's forehead.

However, compared to Eunuch Liu's angry rebuke, he was more afraid of being beheaded.

and so……

He tried his best to calm down the fear in his heart and said cautiously: "Eunuch Liu... is not good..."

"What's wrong?? Is your father dead, or is your mother running away with someone else?" Eunuch Liu roared angrily.

The head chef did not dare to refute, swallowed his saliva, and said with all his anger, "All the food in the cellar disappeared overnight!"

"Ang? What did you say?"

Eunuch Liu sat up suddenly and asked: "What did you say?? Tell me again!!"

The head chef swallowed again and said, "Isn't it true that all the food we purchased yesterday was stored in the cellar! Now... all this food is gone!"

"Huh?? The food purchased yesterday... was placed in the cellar... and disappeared inexplicably??"

Eunuch Liu didn't bother to put on his servant's clothes, got out of bed, opened the door, glared and angrily said:

"Aren't you dazzled? How could the food disappear in the cellar? Do you want to tell me that the food has grown legs and escaped overnight??"

The head chef wiped his cold sweat and echoed tremblingly: "You can... you can say that..."

"I call you your mother!!"

Eunuch Liu kicked the chief cook in the chest and reprimanded angrily: "Did your head get burned out? You told me that the food really ran away? Do you think I would believe it?"

"thump……"

The head chef ignored the pain in his abdomen and knelt on the ground with a thump. Tears appeared in his eyes and he said with great horror:

"Eunuch Liu...it's true...all the food in the cellar is really gone! I don't know how to explain it...it's really incredible!"

The head chef told what he had just seen.

Eunuch Liu's expression became solemn.

"Let's go!! Take me to see it immediately!"

Eunuch Liu picked up his clothes and put them on quickly. Then, under the leadership of the chief chef, he arrived at the cellar of the imperial dining room with sparks and lightning as fast as possible.

The cellar was... empty, not even a shadow of vegetables, meat, or fruits could be seen.

"How is it possible?? How is it possible??"

Cold sweat suddenly broke out on Eunuch Liu's forehead, and his face became ugly.

The nostrils that were usually turned upwards, high above the sky, have disappeared without a trace, and there is nothing but shock and despair in his eyes.

Now he is the first person in charge of procurement at the Food Department of the Palace Internal Affairs Office.

The food purchase for the palace kitchen was directly linked to him.

If the food in the imperial kitchen is lost, the superiors will not think it is lost. They will think it is because Eunuch Liu took money for himself and did not purchase food.

Once this hat is taken off, not only will he be beheaded, but his family members and relatives far away from the palace will also be affected.

This is absolutely no joke.

Eunuch Liu thought of the terrible end, and he was so frightened that he fell into a daze on the spot, and the cold sweat on his back soaked his clothes.

Seeing that Eunuch Liu was frightened, the head chef cautiously shouted, "Eunuch Liu... Eunuch Liu..."

Eunuch Liu trembled all over and suddenly withdrew from the panic.

He stretched out his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, his eyes were like a hawk, staring at the hundreds of imperial chefs behind him, and asked coldly:

"Can any of you explain to me...where did the food in the cellar go?? Do you want to tell me that these guys have grown legs and ran out overnight??"

All the imperial chefs lowered their heads, trembling with fear, and no one spoke.

This incredible scene left everyone wondering how to explain it.

In their entire lives, they have never heard of such a ridiculous thing, which is simply unbelievable.

The head chef also lowered his head.

He was extremely anxious and wanted to find a solution.

"Or... our purchase yesterday was just a dream? If it was a dream, what about the remaining food and seasonings before the purchase? Why did they also disappear?" Eunuch Liu was very angry in his heart. , his tone of voice was trembling.

Everyone still kept their mouths shut, no one dared to say a word.

Eunuch Liu seriously suspected that God was playing a joke on him.

If the food inside was stolen by the royal chefs in front of me, that is absolutely impossible!

They don't have the guts.
