Overlord's Road to Ancient Emperors

The father and daughter talked for a while, once Li Xu had the heart to coax someone, it was very easy, even he himself admired him when he talked about it, it was too easy to tame a five-year-old girl.

Liu Shu led two little girls in with trays, "Your Highness, it's time for dinner."

The smile on the corner of Li Xu's mouth suddenly froze, and his eyes moved back and forth among several plates, one piece of dry barbecue, three dry buns, one plate of yellowish mixed vegetables, and another plate that could not be seen. What kind of slime.

He didn't pay much attention to what he ate in the carriage these days, he ate whatever he was given, the most he ate was batter, occasionally there was broth, but none of the meals suited his appetite.

"Where is the chicken soup that the king wants?" He asked.

Liu Shu replied cautiously: "Yicheng said that it is too late to buy chicken today, and I have to bring it tomorrow."

Li Xu couldn't come up with delicious food for a while, so he called his daughter to the table to eat together. He pushed the plate of mud to the little girl, ate a steamed bun, cut a few pieces of meat and ate it, and then he didn't know what to do. I can't swallow it anymore. Not only is it too dry, but the taste is also quite strange.

As a native of the south, Li Xu was used to eating with soup since he was a child, and he couldn't eat without a bowl of soup.

The father and daughter finished their dinner in silence, and Li Xu asked Liu Shu to call all the people who came out this time to identify them. These improvised family members must be familiar with each other.

In fact, there are not many people in total, except their father and daughter, one old and one young, two eunuchs, two maids, and two women are gone. One of the two maids is called Taohong and the other is Liulu. It seems that they changed it later. The long names are only average; the two women, one surnamed Sun and the other surnamed Qian, are both strong and strong, and they probably slack off and eat meat when they were in the East Palace.

It was the first time for these four people to see His Royal Highness Shun Wang, and they were trembling nervously.

Li Xu raised his eyebrows, intending to ease the atmosphere, and praised the two wives: "I heard what happened in the afternoon from Liu Shu, and you have done a good job. Although this king is out of the palace, he is not to be bullied." Lord, if this kind of thing happens in the future, you don’t have to be polite, and you two will each receive an extra half a month’s reward later.”

The two wives thanked them happily, and the stones hanging in their hearts finally fell to the ground. They were always worried that His Highness would dislike them. You must know that when they were in the Eastern Palace, they did rough work, even worse than the lowest maids.

Li Xu then asked: "Who is in charge of the kitchen now?"

The little girl with the buns took a step forward, and replied with a low eyebrow, "I'm a slave."

Li Xu remembered that her name was Tao Hong, so he thought about her culinary skills and asked, "Did you cook it by yourself?"

"Liu Luyou helped light the fire."

Ganqing's culinary skills were worse than the other, so he asked helplessly: "Who else can cook?"

The woman surnamed Qian whispered, "This old slave knows a little bit, but he hasn't been in the kitchen for more than twenty years."

Then you are so confident!

Li Xu looked helplessly at his old, weak, sick and disabled family, and his whole heart felt cold. The road had only just begun, but he felt that it was already coming to an end.

He didn't have a better idea for a while, so he waved everyone away.

The old eunuch was getting old and had to go back to his room to rest after dinner time. The two maids took the little princess away, the two women cleaned up the dishes on the dining table before going out, and Liu Shu stayed and waited. After the people left, he asked: "Your Highness, is it because the food is not to your liking?"

Li Xu glanced at him and asked back, "Have you eaten?"

"Ah?" Probably did not expect the master to care about his food, Liu Shu was stunned for a moment before saying, "Not yet."

"Do you think the food suits your appetite?"

"Naturally, it can't be compared with the imperial chef." Liu Shu also eats spicy food in the East Palace. The crown prince has leftovers from every meal, and these leftovers are basically eaten by the close court ladies and eunuchs, so he His appetite was also whetted.

After leaving the palace, the food plummeted. Liu Shu has lost a lot of weight these days, but he will not complain to his master about this.

He said caringly: "Tomorrow, I will go to the market and buy you something to eat. Come back. What would you like to eat?"

"Forget it, it will only increase your troubles." In fact, it will be over after a while, and Li Xu is not a hedonist, but he will still let himself eat better when conditions permit.

"What does the Habayashi army eat?" He asked curiously.

Liu Shu replied: "If they are on the road, they will eat dry food, and when they arrive at the post house, they will eat meals cooked in the big kitchen."

Li Xu licked his lips, "Is the food in the big kitchen delicious?" He thought, as long as there is a chef, the cooking skills can't be worse than that of a little girl, right?

"This... the slave doesn't know either."

Li Xu told him: "Tomorrow, go get a meal and try it."

"Here."
