My Empress is My Bad Girl - Chapter 30
Chapter 30: The Kitchen in a Frenzy
Yun Dou was carrying a huge basin filled with the bloody internal organs of the chickens they’d just slaughtered.
These had all been dug out from inside the chickens.
Consort Chen had specially ordered black chicken and ginseng soup for dinner. She wanted Yun Dou to prepare it and didn’t want Yun Dai to touch it at all.
Yun Dou was feeling very smug about this.
When humans feel very smug, they often forgot their place.
Yun Dou was carrying this basin filled with chicken entrails that had been freshly gathered and started provoking Yun Dai.
Yun Dai never liked to argue with dumb people.
Besides, she had just promised Mo Chun that she would never make a pig intestines dish ever again, so she was going to keep that promise.
“Why, you don’t dare to even respond now?” Yun Dou became even smugger when she saw that Yun Dai had remained silent. That basin of chicken entrails was about to bang right into Yun Dai soon.
Mo Chun really didn’t like how Yun Dou often became very audacious when she was feeling smug. She was about to reprimand her when she saw Liu Dequan running over as quickly as he could.
His fair, plump face was covered with perspiration.
Honestly speaking, nobody in the kitchen ever liked to see him.
Whenever he came, it was definitely bad news.
As they had expected, his first words were, “Auntie Chun, I…uh…need to talk to you about something.”
Mo Chun’s heart started pounding from worry, but she smiled and said, “Sure, please go ahead.”
Liu Dequan said, “From now on, all three meals for Lady Lin of Decorous Service shall be changed to…pig intestines.”
“What?” Mo Chun got a terrible shock. “What…what did you just say?”
Everyone else in the kitchen also looked over in disbelief.
Liu Dequan cleared his throat and repeated in a higher voice, “His Highness has ordered that from today onward, Lady Lin of Decorous Service’s three meals every day will be changed to pig intestines.”
The entire place fell silent.
“Are you…are you sure?” asked Mo Chun weakly.
“Of course I’m sure! Did you think I would dare to pass on His Highness’s orders wrong?” Liu Dequan rolled his eyes at her, then turned around as he waved his large sleeves with great flourish. “I still have other matters to attend to. That’s all.”
Mo Chun quickly called him back. “Eunuch Liu, you have to give me more details. How should the meals be prepared? How long does this have to go on? How should she be eating it?”
She was thinking a lot in advance. If Lady Lin of Decorous Service secretly threw it away, nobody in the kitchen would know.
Liu Dequan thought to himself, “I wouldn’t know. His Highness even glared at me precisely because I asked this same question.”
But since he was the person closest to the crown prince, he couldn’t possibly say that he didn’t know the answer either.
Otherwise, the other servants would think that he had fallen out of favor with the crown prince.
“In any case, for as long as His Highness doesn’t say stop, Lady Lin of Decorous Service will have to keep eating pig intestines. Understand?” Liu Dequan scoffed. “Also, another important thing is that the new kitchen helper has to be the one preparing all of Lady Lin of Decorous Service’s meals. After preparing it, she has to serve it and watch Lady Lin of Decorous Service finish eating every mouthful before coming back.”
Yun Dai felt as if her head was spinning, and she nearly fainted.
This *sshole of a crown prince was really the ultimate jerk!
He was definitely bent on getting her killed!
There were so many people in the kitchen. Why did he insist on her preparing the food?
And she even had to personally watch Lady Lin of Decorous Service finish eating everything before she could leave?
Wasn’t Lady Lin of Decorous Service going to hate her to the core because of this?
Yun Dai finally got a taste of exactly how evil and scheming this crown prince could be under that handsome face of his.
After Liu Dequan had left these instructions for them, he left in a great hurry.
He had to quickly get back to serving the crown prince while he studied and practiced martial arts.
The small kitchen was silent for a moment, then it completely exploded.
“Is this for real? Did I hear him wrong?” Mi Dou had a hand over her mouth, and she opened her eyes as wide as she could. “Why does His Highness want Lady Lin of Decorous Service to eat pig intestines every single day? Is she not allowed to eat anything else besides that? Does that mean she can’t eat steamed buns and rice anymore?”
“Mi Dou, be quiet!” Mo Chun frowned. “Since His Highness has given such instructions, we will just follow them accordingly. Don’t say anything else, and don’t ask any more questions. Keep your mouths shut!”
She walked over to Yun Dou and took a peek at the basin of chicken entrails that she was holding and said deliberately, “It looks like Yun will have to cook pig intestines every day from now on. Oh, who was it who said that if Yun dares to make another pig intestines dish, she would eat this entire basin of chicken entrails raw?”
Yun Dou looked as stunned as a wooden chicken.
