C158 Spicy Crab

Although everyone was very curious, they still waited for the prince's consort to officially greet them before taking off the lid.

The fragrance of the crabs filled the air, making everyone's appetite stir. A few red and juicy crabs could be seen, along with a few red and juicy chili peppers. It was a beautiful sight to behold.

On the table, there were eight pieces of crab meat. They were even affectionately served with a jug of wine and a few side dishes which were then eaten together with the crab.

After Prince Duan's concubine made his move, the group of people couldn't hold it in any longer and all began to enjoy themselves.

As soon as it entered his mouth, the fresh flavor of the crab meat was added a bit of spiciness as it was fully savored by the spicy gluten. It circulated in the tip of one's tongue and was unwilling to swallow.

The group of female staff members were eating earnestly, as they put the crab meat into their mouths to savor the spicy and fragrant taste. For a moment, only the sound of hammering could be heard in the garden, as they were using their crab axes to handle the crab meat.

It was not until the middle of the meal that people began to talk to each other.

"This is the first time I've eaten a crab like this. Earlier, just looking at it made me swallow my saliva." Some of the ladies below teased him.

"That's right, my family's chef works hard on this crab every year, but I've never seen one that tastes better than this."

"It's also the wishful thinking of the people in the wangfei's residence to be able to produce such delicious crab meat."

The Crown Prince's wife smiled as she listened. Hearing this, she continued, "This is not the work of my family's chefs."

The madams below were puzzled and could not help but ask.

Prince Chuan and his wife stood at the top of the crowd, smiling as they looked towards the entrance of the garden. Everyone followed their gazes and looked in that direction.

A young girl dressed in red walked towards them with graceful steps. When they got closer, they realized that the young girl was actually Jia He.

"Today, all of this delicacy is due to this person." Prince Duan's wife smiled as she explained to everyone, then led Jia He to sit beside her.

The crowd was bewildered for a moment before Prince Duan continued, "Earlier, I also happened to know about Jia He and her wondrous thoughts. After tasting it, I couldn't help but bring it out to invite everyone to have a taste as well. It's all because of Jia He that I'm inviting everyone to eat crabs."

"What are you talking about, Aunt? She's only teaching the method to the cooks in the palace, it's not a credit. Being able to cook so delicious, Aunt's underlings are the best." Jia He was usually arrogant and domineering, but at this moment, she shyly replied.

The rest of the people finally understood that this was an idea come up with by Jia He and Princess Hua-Yang.

"I wonder if this crab has any name today." someone asked.

Jia He raised her smiling face, her voice neither fast nor slow, "Yes, today this crab was specially prepared to fry the base of the pot, and with the addition of the new spicy seeds from the Southern Champion Kingdom, this spicy crab was made."

Everyone nodded in understanding after hearing this. 'Spicy Crab' was a person who lived up to his name.

Inwardly, he was also curious about Jia He and Princess Hua-Yang. This princess who was even more ambitious than the heavens had never shown such preference in the past.

However, all of them began to praise Jia He and Princess, but they were nothing more than praise for her brilliant ideas. Occasionally, they would add a praise similar to that of a Cymbidium Blue. Su Zixuan didn't know how to express it.

Listening to the praises from above, Su Zixuan didn't know why she felt that the food she just ate wasn't as delicious as before.

What was even more interesting was that when Su Zixuan inadvertently raised her head, she saw Princess Yongning give her a complacent smile.

Su Zixuan didn't understand, but she still ignored him and continued to eat and drink. Along the way, she began to converse with Li Shiyun in a low voice.

When everyone was done eating, he removed the table and left. Everyone looked at him with an unsatisfied expression.

After the incident, the prince's consort carried Su Zixuan away to admire the chrysanthemums in the courtyard. Su Zixuan didn't have much interest in this, so she found a small pavilion to talk to Li Shiyun.

"This is seventh cousin's fiancee."

Su Zixuan was chatting with Li Shiyun, and when she heard their conversation, she looked outside and saw Princess Yongning, Princess Jia He, and a few unfamiliar girls talking to them from outside the pavilion.

"It looks normal, but it's not as pretty as Jia and Jiejie." As Yong Ning spoke, he didn't forget to glance at Su Zixuan, wanting to see her expression.

"You guys should eat today's spicy crabs. That's what Jia He and big sis thought of. Also, the pot that was popular in the capital previously was also cooked by Jia and big sis." Princess Yongning was proud to boast of Jia He's praises.

However, he wasn't on guard when he heard this. His face no longer had that peaceful expression, but was instead filled with provocation towards Su Zixuan.

"Is it a first class building?" The purple-clothed girl at the side asked.

Su Zixuan recalled that this person seemed to be the daughter of an Eldest Princess. However, she wasn't the first-in-line daughter, so she only had the title of County Lord.

"That's right!" Princess Yongning answered with a smile, as if the first-class building was her own.

When Su Zixuan heard this, she couldn't help but laugh, causing a few young girls to turn to look at her.
