Chapter 93: 能不能让微臣也尝一尝

Chapter 93: Can this small official have a taste?

Cao Zhong Quan said as he walked inside, and when he saw Ye Feng, his body gave a start. He nodded his head so it was considered as a greeting.

Ye Feng looked at Cao Zhong Quan in surprise.

He didn’t hear it wrong just now, right?

The Emperor had to pay silver to eat this?

At once, he asked out loud, “Eunuch Cao, you just said that this cold drink in your hand was bought by the Emperor at a cost of 50 wen?”

“That’s right ah? What’s wrong?” Eunuch Cao looked at Ye Feng with a strange look, isn’t it normal for the Emperor to buy something to eat?

Ye Feng felt something was wrong, but he couldn’t say, it was too weird.

Cao Zhong Quan put the barrel on the case, uncovered the lid, it immediately emitted a burst of cold air from inside visible to the naked eye, from the inside of the end of a beautiful glazed marigold is a white sheepish object, piled up in the shape of a small mountain, on top of it is the bright yellow peach jam, dripping down from the tip of the mountain, spreading all the way to the bottom, exuding an enticing luster.

Ji Wu Jue picked up a spoon and dug a mouthful, as it entered the mouth, it was cold and icy, with a tangy milky flavor and a fresh yellow peach flavor, the taste was indeed good.

Compared to yesterday’s ice porridge, it had a different flavor.

Lu Yunluo, this woman, in the research to make new kinds of food, simply has a kind of amazing talent, whether it is the previous steamed buns and stuffed steamed buns, or now the ice treats. 

If this kind of cold drink can be popularized among the people next year, I think, it should be able to avoid many people from getting heatstroke, right?

He swept a glance at Ye Feng, “What did you just say? Go on.”

Ye Feng looked at the ice cream in Ji Wu Jue’s hand and felt like his throat was flare up, especially thirsty.

He swallowed his own saliva and said, “Your Majesty, can you let this humble servant have a taste as well of one ice treat left in your wooden box?”

Ji Wu Jue swept him with a sidelong glance and said, “Ten taels of silver, a piece!”

Ten taels?

Ye Feng’s mouth trembled, he had just heard Cao Zhong Quan say that he had only spent a total of 50 Wen, how could he ask for ten taels of silver for just one?

This is clearly robbing while the fire is burning!

[Loot a burning house—take advantage of sb.’s misfortune to do him harm; fish in troubled waters. ]

But when he saw Cao Zhong Quan take out the cold green bean cake from the wooden box, he couldn’t help but swallow his saliva.

“Ye Commander, do you think you still want it?”

Ye Feng’s gaze fell on the ice popsicle that looked pleasantly cool, forget it, isn’t  it just ten taels of silver?

He could afford to eat it!

“Of course I want it!”

He took out a silver ingot from his pocket and threw it over, before taking the green bean cake from Eunuch Cao.

He was ready to taste how delicious this ice treat really was.

Taking a bite, it was cold, icy and sweet.

Another bite, delicious!

Just like that, an ice treat he finished in two or three bites, it smelled so good!

If he could get one of these for his brothers who were training in the hot sun every day, he would definitely win a lot of hearts or human feelings in his first half of the year as the Commander-in-Chief!

“Your Majesty, I’ve heard that the guards outside have a chilled snack every day, you can’t be partial or showing particular favor.” Ye Feng said no matter what he had to fight it today for such a benefit for his 50,000 forbidden troops.

Ji Wu Jue thought about it and said, “You have a point.”

Anyway, nowadays, all the departments in the palace have basically been ordered. The forbidden army has 50,000, if she has this extra 50,000 orders daily, I don’t know if that woman will be grateful to Zhen (me)?

“Cao Zhong Quan, take him to register ba.”

“Lord Ye, this way please.”

When Ye Feng followed Cao Zhong Quan as he made seven turns to a room, he only saw that the inside was overcrowded with people.
