My Husband, a Marshal: Conquering the Stars with My Culinary Arts Chapter 156 - 54: Pan-fried Buns (Part 3)

It was over four months ago when Ke Lian and Mo Feng got into trouble. At that ti, the Star Network was buzzing with criticism of that traitor who defected to the enemy, demanding he be subjected to the harshest punishnt.

Of course, Du Xixi and the Mo Family handed the traitor’s punishnt over to the Military Departnt, and it indeed used the brutal thod of death by a thousand cuts. It’s said that the traitor wished he were dead before he actually died, and even after death, his corpse was in a horrific state.

Logically, this matter should have been considered closed after the traitor’s death. However, the traitor’s family was not simple; among his family of four, apart from the traitor, his parents and brother were all talented individuals serving the Empire. Unwilling to accept the traitor’s tragic end quietly, they garnered sympathy within their circles, and there were indeed so people who couldn’t see clearly, accusing the Military Departnt of being too cruel and lacking empathy.

Empathy? How to empathize? Betraying the country and the military deserves the utmost punishnt, not so verbal education as if disciplining a child and sending him ho for parental guidance!

What a joke!

Because of one traitor, Ke Lian and Mo Feng nearly died on the battlefield! The Empire almost lost two outstanding military talents! Moreover, Ke Lian’s standing is not only prominent in the Blue Star Empire but also imnsely respected across All-Star!

If sothing had happened to Ke Lian, and the Military Departnt still shielded that traitor, Chen Yin and others wouldn’t need to issue instructions against the Military Departnt; All-Star would have already begun attacking it.

Today, Ke Lian visited the Military Departnt, originally to handover relevant military affairs from this battle. If possible, he might be dispatched again shortly.

But as soon as he stepped into the Military Departnt entrance, two n and a woman ran out from nowhere, kneeling and crying, accusing Ke Lian of lacking compassion for his subordinates, alleging he was arrogant and unfit to be a Marshal.

Ke Lian was so amused he nearly laughed out loud, restraining himself from kicking each of them, and turned around to head back to the Ke Family.

Military affairs can be handed over at other tis, but he feared staying any longer might result in three severely wounded people lying at the Military Departnt’s entrance.

After hearing Ke Lian’s account, Du Xixi couldn’t help but laugh empathetically. She was amused by the anger. It turned out there really were such shaless people in the world!

Ke Xing exchanged a knowing glance with Chen Yin and sighed in unison. Nowadays, everyone’s living standards have improved, but while material needs are t, spiritual life is sowhat lacking; many people’s ntal states have already begun to twist.

As the ruler of the Blue Star Empire, Chen Yin’s feelings were particularly deep, and his worries particularly abundant.

Three talents who contributed to the Empire couldn’t even grasp basic principles. He felt that if things continued like this, the Blue Star Empire would eventually decline!

Noticing the heavy atmosphere, Miao Miao uneasily approached Du Xixi. Du Xixi furrowed her brows, thought for a mont, and then changed the subject, saying, "It’s just as well I made so snacks this afternoon. You can have them as treats."

Ke Lian and the others also thought using food to shift their curiosity was a good idea. As the saying goes, "When the car reaches the mountain, there will be a road," and "When the ship gets to the pier-head, it will go straight." These troubleso matters can wait until there’s more ti to think about them.

For now, it’s naturally ti to enjoy so food!

Because Miao Miao hadn’t eaten many egg rolls, and Du Xixi had made quite a few in the first place, when 2569 brought out the egg rolls from the kitchen, they were stacked up high on a plate.

"Egg rolls!" Chen Yin imdiately straightened up excitedly. "I really love them!"

Du Xixi’s eyes softened, seeing him eagerly pick one up to taste. She handed one to Ke Lian and said with a smile, "It’s because I thought of how much you love them, Brother, so I made them especially for you."

Ke Lian was feeling quite happy to receive an egg roll from Du Xixi until he heard it was made especially for Chen Yin. His heart suddenly felt a chill, tinged with jealousy.

"Xixi, why are you so nice to His Majesty..." Ke Lian ate a bite of the egg roll, feeling the more delicious it was, the more sour he felt inside. "I’ve never had this treatnt!"

Seeing Ke Lian’s jar of jealousy spill all over, Chen Yin and Ke Xing laughed unabashedly. Even Miao Miao covered her mouth with a roll to hide her giggles, while Du Xixi could only helplessly rub her forehead.

"It’s rare for Brother to visit our ho; it’s only right to welco him warmly!" Du Xixi knew she had to pacify Ke Lian quickly. Otherwise, he might go on being jealous indefinitely.

She took Ke Lian’s hand, taking the egg roll from his other hand and feeding it to him. "Here, have a taste. If you like it, I’ll make it for you every day!"

Ke Lian believed he wouldn’t be so easily pacified, but after taking a bite of the roll, he turned his head to stare fiercely at Chen Yin, as if biting Chen Yin instead of the roll.

Du Xixi was genuinely amused by Ke Lian and gently turned his head back, feeding him another bite of the roll. "Alright, don’t be mad. Tomorrow I’ll make a special dish just for you, okay? How about so pan-fried buns with crispy, soft dough? You will definitely love them."
