Chapter 126

"Sigh!"

Empress Zhangsun saw the scene before her and was somewhat helpless.

What is all this?

Kidnapped hostages, a princess forced to marry, a criminal fleeing Great Tang, brother-in-law and sister-in-law...

Isn't the relationship too complicated?

Hearing Changle's explanation, Qin Mu also didn't know how to refute it.

What she said...

Really makes sense!

Isn't this girl my sister-in-law?

"Someone."

Qin Mu clapped his hands.

Soon.

Wei Zhongxian walked in with a group of maids.

At the same time.

A cup of milk tea appeared in front of Changle.

"Drink this, and you'll be fine," Qin Mu said, walking up to Changle.

"Oh!"

Changle nodded obediently and drank the milk tea in one gulp.

"Ah! So sweet!"

"It's so delicious! Brother-in-law, what is this?"

After drinking the milk tea, Changle's eyes lit up, and she stared at Qin Mu, asking excitedly.

"This is milk tea, made from a combination of milk and tea, with some sucrose added, which helps to relieve spiciness."

Qin Mu said nonchalantly.

"Milk tea?"

Empress Zhangsun and Li Xueyan looked at each other.

Milk and tea can be combined?

Never heard of it!

"Mother, you should taste it too!"

"This milk tea is especially delicious!"

Changle happily picked up the other two cups of milk tea, letting Empress Zhangsun and Li Xueyan taste them too.

Hmm!

Delicious!

Never had such a delicious drink before!

After tasting it, the two women also praised it highly.

"Brother-in-law, what exactly is the red soup in this pot?"

"Why does my tongue feel painful and numb after drinking it?"

Changle, like a studious child, kept asking Qin Mu various questions.

Good guy!

You really treat my Potala Palace as your own home?

Facing such an innocent and lively sister-in-law, Qin Mu was also quite speechless, but he still explained patiently.

"The red soup in this pot is made from something called chili. This thing doesn't exist in the Central Plains, but it is abundant in the west of Great Qin."

"When Shen Wansan was trading with merchants from the Western Regions, he obtained some chili and Sichuan peppercorns and presented them to the palace."

"This red soup is not for drinking, but for dipping meat and vegetables."

Hearing this explanation, question marks appeared on the heads of Empress Zhangsun and the other two.

Chili?

Sichuan peppercorns?

Dipping meat?

Is this a way of eating in the Western Regions?

"Serve the food."

Seeing that everyone was confused, Qin Mu didn't want to explain too much and gave Wei Zhongxian a look.

Wei Zhongxian understood and directly ordered the maids to bring all the meat and vegetables.

Not long after.

The round table was filled with all kinds of delicacies.

Beef and mutton were sliced as thin as cicada wings, and oil-wheat greens and various vegetables were arranged neatly.

There were also several small dishes of dipping sauce, which had long been prepared.

Looking at this table full of delicacies, the little glutton Changle's nature was exposed again, and she kept swallowing her saliva.

"Come on, I'll teach you how to eat."

Qin Mu sat down on his own, picked up a piece of mutton, and put it into the pot.

"Plop! Plop! Plop!"

The mutton was put into the hot red oil hot pot, making bubbling sounds.

In the blink of an eye.

Qin Mu had already fished out the mutton, dipped it in the sauce, and put it into his mouth.

The action was smooth, delicious, and elegant.
