MTL - I Made a Fortune By Raiding Houses In Ancient Times-Chapter 382 Kick the door
Chapter 382 Kick the door
After such a long journey, the emperor was also hungry. But then we got caught in the rain again, and the clothes we put on inevitably got wet again. So I planned to take a bath first and then eat.
Pang Tong saw that there were many people in their group, but the inn only had one shopkeeper and three waiters, which was a serious shortage of manpower.
If everything depends on those three guys, I don’t know how long it will take before the emperor can have hot water to bathe.
More importantly, everyone still needs to eat.
And when we start our journey early tomorrow morning, we will definitely need to bring water and dry food with us.
After thinking about it, Commander Pang could only arrange for other forbidden troops to help.
Separate some people to heat hot water on the stove and prepare food, and also ordered some of the guards to take care of their horses.
While away from the capital, the emperor must be more careful about his food, clothing, housing and transportation.
Mr. An was worried about the food prepared by others. He saw that the shopkeeper had brought tea and snacks. Sun Yuanzheng had tested it and it was not poisonous. The emperor was drinking tea.
So he took the people down and went to the kitchen to prepare meals for the emperor.
Such a large inn, of course, there is a master in charge of the ladle, and there are also two apprentices.
It’s a rainy day and it’s night again. There were no guests in the inn. They had already rested, but now the three of them were called by the innkeeper and were preparing to cook in the kitchen.
Seeing that Eunuch An had arrived in person, the imperial guards who were helping immediately came over to greet him.
Just when I wanted to greet Mr. An, he stopped me with his hand.
Although there are many of them, there are only a few people in the inn. But after experiencing the assassination by a masked man, Mr. An was very cautious and did not want outsiders to know their identities.
Perceiving Gong An’s intention, the Imperial Guards did not reveal his identity.
Although the master in charge of the spoon did not know the identity of Mr. An, he knew that his identity was not simple when others treated him respectfully, so he came over to greet him with a smile.
Gonggong An waved his hand, indicating that he did not need to be polite.
Then I looked around the kitchen and found that apart from a pot of meat and vegetables simmering on the stove, there was only some thick noodles and two kinds of vegetables.
Eunuch An frowned as he saw these things. Not even the emperor, not even the imperial guards, looked down upon these things.
But now everyone is cold and hungry, so it’s good to have something to eat, so you can’t be picky.
It’s just that there are so many people in their group, and such a little thing is not enough.
One more thing, the imperial army can eat these foods, but they cannot let the emperor eat them as well.
After reading this, Mr. An turned to the spoon-handling master and said,
"There are many of us, and these things are far from enough. If you have any food here, bring it all out."
Before the master could say anything, Gonggong An took out a banknote and handed it over, "Don't worry about the money. Take this banknote and prepare some food for us as soon as possible."
It doesn’t matter whether it’s vegetables, rice, white flour or other cereals. The most important thing is to cook it quickly. "
Even though the emperor is the king of a country, the whole world belongs to him. But if he leaves the palace and dines out, he will pay the money.
Otherwise, if the officials below follow the same example, it will definitely arouse public anger.
The imperial guards present were worried about not having enough food in the kitchen. When they saw Eunuch An giving the order, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
When he saw the banknote, the spoon-handling master was very happy and said with a simple and honest smile, "Don't worry, it will be ready immediately."
After taking the banknote, he immediately ordered the two apprentices next to him, "Go to the vegetable cellar and bring the meat and vegetables. And you, bring the white flour and rice, and don't forget the eggs."
“Yes, master, the younger one will go right away.” The two apprentices responded carefully before turning around and walking out.
Seeing that the two people seemed a little timid, they were thin and small, and they were worried that they wouldn't be able to carry much, so some imperial guards followed them, intending to help them.
Perhaps the vegetable cellar was not far away. It didn't take long for a few forbidden soldiers and the two disciples to move a lot of things over.
Mr. An checked them one by one and found that the things he brought were quite clean. Whether they were meat or vegetables, they were all fresher than he had imagined. He was satisfied.
Worried that the emperor was starving, Eunuch An did not intend to make complicated dishes, but asked the chef to make some pasta.
After taking the banknote, the master was not dissatisfied at all. He quickly took a wooden basin and began to scoop out noodles, add water, and knead the noodles.
Although Eunuch An did not do it himself, he kept a close eye on the movements of the master who held the spoon.
He even ordered two forbidden soldiers to watch the two apprentices washing and chopping vegetables. To ensure that they do not have the opportunity to do anything they should not do.
At first, Mr. An and the two forbidden soldiers were really worried.
Later I found out that both the ladle master and the two apprentices were very well-behaved and paid attention to cleanliness no matter what they were doing, which made them feel relieved.
But the three of them did not relax their vigilance and kept staring.
The more people there are, the more food there is to eat.
The master in charge of the ladle and his two apprentices had to prepare the emperor's food and had no time to cook other people's meals.
Gonggong An could only ask the imperial guards to prepare their meals in person.
No one of the Imperial Guards present is good at cooking, but the food is prepared for them. It does not need to be colored or flavored, as long as it is cooked well and will not spoil the stomach.
The imperial guards also knew that there were not enough people on the stove, and if they wanted to eat, they had to do it themselves.
Soon, the stove became lively.
Some people washed vegetables and cut meat, while others mixed noodles and cooked rice. Everyone was busy in an orderly manner.
However, the food is not ready yet, so the hot water boiling on the stove will be ready first.
Knowing that the emperor was still waiting for hot water for washing, Eunuch An immediately ordered two imperial soldiers to carry the hot water to the emperor's room.
As soon as they left, Yin Sha and Wei Feng also came to the kitchen.
Both of them came to ask for hot water.
Yin Sha prepared a bath for Ning Chuyi, but Wei Feng helped Ling Chu carry water.
Originally, Ling Chu planned to fetch hot water by himself, but as soon as he left the door, he happened to meet Yin Sha and Wei Feng.
So he offered to help Ling Chu fetch water.
Lingchu wanted to refuse, but both of them said that since she was already a member of Jinyiwei, she didn't have to be polite.
Ning Chuyi passed by and happened to hear their conversation, and said quietly to Ling Chu, "The two of them have a lot of energy, so I just want them to bring more hot water. In case they are too energetic and can't sleep at night."
When Ning Chuyi spoke, Yin Sha and Wei Feng were not annoyed, but nodded in agreement.
Ling first saw how enthusiastic they were, but she was tired and hungry, so she really didn't have much energy and didn't refuse much.
Soon, the imperial army prepared hot water for the emperor.
Yin Sha and Wei Feng also came back with several buckets of water.
Lingchu closed the door and soaked in the tub, finally feeling alive.
The water was still a little scalding hot, but it was just right for Ling Chu, who was cold all over.
She planned to soak for a longer time to keep herself warm.
But Xu was too tired, so Ling Chu soaked and began to feel drowsy.
Soon, she sat in the tub and fell asleep.
I don’t know how long it took, but the system suddenly sounded an alarm.
Ling Chu opened his eyes in a daze, saw the situation in the system, and subconsciously shouted, "No..."
Before he finished speaking, the locked door was kicked open.
Looking at Ning Chuyi who suddenly rushed in, Ling Chu's eyes suddenly widened.
Everyone has a holiday, right? Three days, right?
so envious.
I also want to take a vacation, but unfortunately I can’t.
I can only ask for some tickets to comfort ...
