Chapter 74: 074 Khan cannot find the queen, obviously angry (first update)

After finishing one type of flavoring, Li Xianyun adjusted another based on the taste of the fruits.

About an hour later, more than a dozen different ratios of flavorings were ready.

anwhile, the kitchen maids had also peeled and cut the fruit, and the ice slush was prepared as well.

Each of the flavorings that Li Xianyun had concocted was enough to make a dozen bowls of ice porridge at once.

She mixed the ice porridge in a large iron basin, first letting the kitchen maids taste it, and then distributing it to the Palace Servants and maids in the palace to hear their thoughts.

Each large iron basin held a dozen bowls of ice porridge, and with a total of more than a dozen basins, there was enough ice porridge for all the Palace Servants and maids in the palace to eat.

Seeing the different flavors of ice porridge before them, the kitchen maids were all amazed, not expecting ice porridge to have so many different flavors.

Li Xianyun said to the kitchen maids, “You taste a little of each first and then rank them according to how delicious they are. After that, report the results to Youlan. After you’ve tasted them, share with the maids and Palace Servants and ask for their opinions too.”

The kitchen maids replied with a smile, “Yes.”

They had been eager to try it for a while.

Li Xianyun said to Youlan and Zhuo Ma, “Write down the nas of the ice porridges, and when they speak about the ranking later, draw a vertical line next to the ice porridge they ntion. Then, based on the number of lines, sort them and tell .”

She wanted to pick the top eight flavors to sell at the Ice Porridge Shop.

Upon hearing this, the two responded, “Yes.”

Youlan asked with a smile, “Mistress, may Zhuo Ma and I also taste the ice porridges?”

Li Xianyun replied with a smile, “You won’t be left out. After you finish writing the nas of the ice porridges, go and have a taste and also give them a ranking.”

Youlan and Zhuo Ma cheerfully agreed and started writing earnestly.

Grape Dew Frost, Peach Dew Frost, lon Dew Frost…

The nas the princess had co up with were not only easy to rember but also very appetizing, especially on a hot sumr day, they sounded very refreshing.

Having given her instructions, Li Xianyun then stepped out for so fresh air.

Seeing this, Youlan had a maid take her place and followed to serve.

Li Xianyun, seeing Youlan follow, said with a smile, “I just want to get so fresh air; you need not accompany .”

“How could that be? What if you have instructions? Mistress, rest assured, I have already found soone to take my place,” she replied.

Li Xianyun could only agree and proceeded with Youlan to the shade of the wutong tree.

A wutong leaf the size of a palm lay on the swing, along with a small green dragonfly perched on it.

As Li Xianyun approached, the green dragonfly flew away, darting into the dense green leaves of the wutong tree and disappearing from sight.

She brushed the leaf from the swing to the ground and then sat back leisurely on the swing, gently swaying with the support of the chair back.

A gentle breeze wafted in, cool as flowing water embracing her, quite comfortably.

Sitting down, Li Xianyun didn’t feel like leaving. The place was cool and fresh, and staying there made her feel completely relaxed.

She asked Youlan to bring a book, and she leaned back on the swing, leisurely reading.

Yelu Yan went to see Xiao Dilu.

Xiao Dilu indeed was much better, able to get out of bed with the help of others.

After discussing so matters, Yelu Yan went to the Hall of Diligent Governance to deal with official business and then planned to inspect the military camp.

Having been raised in the camp since childhood, even though he was now enthroned as Khan, the innate solider’s fervor was deeply ingrained in him. If he stayed away from the camp for a few days, he felt uncomfortable all over.

With the sun sloping westward, it would take an hour or two to get to the camp and back. He would return late, so he thought it necessary to inform Li Xianyun.

Actually, he could send a ssage through Jinwu or soone else and didn’t have to go back just for that.

But for so reason, he felt compelled to return and see the young woman.

As soon as Yelu Yan returned to the Khan Palace, he saw two Palace Servants at the door, each holding a bowl of ice porridge and eating with their heads lowered in delight.

One servant said, “The ice porridge made by the princess consort is really delicious.”

The other nodded and said, “And there are so many flavors to taste, we’re truly fortunate today.”

The other palace servants and maids didn’t have such a kind master like the princess consort, and they envied them every day.

Jinwu saw the two n eating so avidly that he cleared his throat emphatically.

When the servants looked up and saw the Khan had returned, they were so startled that they almost dropped the bowls in their hands.

In their haste, they put the ice porridge aside, knelt down, and greeted him with a bent arm, “Greetings to the Khan.”

Yelu Yan glanced at the ice porridge and asked indifferently, “Where is the princess consort?”

One servant replied, “Reporting to the Khan, the princess consort is in the kitchen room making different flavors of ice porridge.”

Upon hearing this, Yelu Yan strode towards the kitchen room.

After Yelu Yan had walked a little further away, Jinwu looked at the servants and asked softly, “Is there any ice porridge left?”

The servant chuckled softly, “There is, the princess consort made a lot of ice porridge today, and everyone gets a share.”

Relieved by this news, Jinwu hurriedly followed Yelu Yan.

Upon arriving at the kitchen room, Yelu Yan saw the kitchen maids lining up to speak with Zhuo Ma, who was writing sothing earnestly on paper.

Scanning the room, Yelu Yan didn’t see the delicate figure and a trace of coolness couldn’t help but slide through the depths of his eyes.

Everyone knelt down and greeted him as they saw Yelu Yan, “Greetings to the Khan.”

It was unprecedented for the Khan to visit the kitchen room; had sothing happened?

Yelu Yan looked at Zhuo Ma and asked indifferently, “Where is the princess consort?”

Zhuo Ma respectfully reported, “To inform the Khan, the princess consort left a short while ago, and we do not know where she went.”

Yelu Yan’s expression turned quite ugly upon hearing this.

How could so many people not know where Li Xianyun had gone? What if she had encountered danger?

Just then, a maid said softly, “To inform the Khan, this servant saw the princess consort heading towards the west, near the Phoenix trees, with Sister Youlan.”

Yelu Yan gave the crowd a cold glance and turned to walk westward.

After Yelu Yan had been gone for quite so ti, those in the kitchen room were still too scared to stand up.

Finally, Zhuo Ma wiped the sweat from her forehead and stood up.

The Khan was usually unexpressive, but today, the worry and anger were evident on his face.

Seeing Zhuo Ma stand up, the others followed suit.

The Chief of the kitchen room asked Zhuo Ma, “The Khan is angry, what should we do?”

Zhuo Ma said, “We were all ignorant about the whereabouts of the princess consort, of course, the Khan is angry. I will inform the Chief later, so that he can tell all the maids and Palace Servants in the Khan Palace, to be aware of the princess consort’s movents and not be clueless when asked.”

The Chief nodded and said, “You make a good point, you always think things through.”

Zhuo Ma had just seen Bater returned, and she planned to finish the kitchen duties quickly and then hurriedly inform him of the situation.

Yelu Yan directly headed to the western fields, and sure enough, he saw Li Xianyun’s figure.

His anxious expression gradually eased, and his heart, which had been suspended, finally settled down.

God knows how worried he had been when he couldn’t find Li Xianyun just monts ago; his mind had even conjured images of her being kidnapped.

He vaguely rembered the image of Li Xianyun with a knife held to her throat, an image that beca clearer as ti passed, unsettling his heart.
