Chapter 341 Chu Nanyue Earns Money from the Imperial Guards

Chu Nanyue took out a spoon and scooped a spoonful, blew on it, then took a sip to taste the saltiness: "Hmm! It's fragrant and delicious, really good."

She snapped her fingers and counted the number of people, then slowly served out six bowls and said loudly, "Sizhu, Lengjiu, and Jiang Yan, come out and eat meat."

As she spoke, she deliberately stirred it with a spoon, intensifying the aroma in the air.

When the royal guards smelled it, they became even more greedy. They couldn't stop swallowing their saliva. They looked at the dry buns in their hands and thought how delicious it would be if they could dip them in the hot chicken soup.

But they were too embarrassed to ask for more, even though there was still so much left in the pot, after all, they had been so arrogant just now.

They have backbone, but their stomachs are spineless.

Someone's stomach suddenly made a deafening gurgling sound. Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and found that it was their leader Zhang Jia. They couldn't help but joked, "Boss, if you are really greedy, why don't you ask Princess Yan if she can give us a drink? It's also a benefit for us to accompany you on this trip."

Zhang Jia couldn't open his mouth at first, but he couldn't stand being rubbed and flattened by them, so he stood up and walked towards Chu Nanyue.

As domineering as the action was, the voice was humble: "......Princess Yan, there are still so many left in the pot... Can you..."

But before he could finish his words, Xiao Tao interrupted him mercilessly: "We were exiled to Yanzhou by His Majesty. We are penniless, so how can we help others? You are all majestic and awe-inspiring guards with swords in front of the emperor, so please don't try to snatch the food we have worked so hard to find!"

After she finished speaking, she enthusiastically handed Leng Jiu a bowl of rice: "Leng Jiu, drink it quickly. Only when you are full can you have the strength to keep going. It's not good for a grown man to eat watery soup and dry buns all day long."

Leng Jiu was overjoyed, and took a big sip as soon as he got it. He even smacked his lips intentionally and exclaimed: "Princess, Xiao Tao's cooking skills are amazing. This is definitely the best chicken soup I have ever had in my life. I can drink eight bowls of it."

Is there any need for him to say this? The fragrant aroma came straight at him, how could Zhang Jia not smell it? He looked back at the brothers who were eagerly waiting, and with a smile on his face, he continued, "Princess Yan, I know that you and the King of Yan are in a difficult situation right now. We won't eat your food for free, we will give you money!"

Chu Nanyue's lips curled up into a smile, and then she said with difficulty: "If that's the case, then fine, there are still so many left, we can't finish them, and Yanzhou is a long way, we do need silver to buy some clothes, so how much silver is appropriate... How about one hundred taels?"

Zhang Jia was so frightened that he almost fell backwards: "...How much?"

One hundred taels? Their monthly salary was only ten taels of silver.

One hundred taels of silver would take them a whole year without eating or drinking.

The Princess of Yan is really like a full person who doesn't know the hunger of a hungry person.

Xiao Tao was also dumbfounded. Her princess had been living the life of a nouveau riche for a few days and had indeed become arrogant.

One hundred taels? You know, ordinary people can eat for a year with two taels of silver.

But she was not helping her relatives and said, "What's wrong with a hundred taels? Don't you see who cooked this meal? This is the meal cooked by the Princess of Yan herself! Isn't this enough for you to brag about for the rest of your life?" After a pause, she felt guilty and tried to make amends for her princess, "Besides, it's not just one meal, it's the food for the journey. We've covered it all. Is that too much?"

After a quick calculation, at the current speed, they could reach Yanzhou in five days. Moreover, all the goods were wild goods hunted by Leng Jiu, with no cost involved, so it would be a profit anyway.

At this moment, all the royal guards surrounded them without them knowing.

Everyone nodded in agreement, but!

They really don't have that much silver!

Chu Nanyue did not give up: "Then how much silver do you have?"

Zhang Jia told the truth: "Our total reward for escorting... no, escorting Prince Yan is ten taels of silver!"

Xiao Tao didn't believe it: "Really?"

The imperial guards nodded one after another: "We can earn ten taels of silver in ten days' round trip, which is already a huge sum of money, not a low amount."

Although fly meat is small, it is still meat. Seeing their sincere faces, Chu Nanyue deliberately said: "This is too much. In this case, we can only provide lunch. Moreover, you can't be picky about food. You should eat what we eat. Those who agree can line up to find Xiaotao to get food. Those who disagree can continue to eat your dry steamed buns!"

Although ten taels of silver was painful, the meat in the pot was so delicious and it was cooked by Princess Yan herself, so the royal guards gritted their teeth and nodded in agreement.

Seeing that the matter was accomplished, Chu Nanyue took the two bowls and left.

Xiaotao and Lengjiu were so busy that they were having a lot of fun.

A bowl of soup in the left hand and a silver ingot in the right hand.

My god, her princess is so talented that she can even earn money for the Royal Guards without any effort.

There were a total of twenty Imperial Guards escorting them this time, and a total of two hundred taels of silver.

With this huge sum of money, plus the silver notes in her crotch, she wouldn't have to worry about food even if she arrived in Yanzhou.

When Chu Nanyue got on the carriage, King Yan had already woken up. Hearing the footsteps, he called out, "Ayue..."

Chu Nanyue originally wanted to compliment him on his extraordinary hearing, but when the words came to her lips, she changed them to: "Aye, you're awake. I brought some chicken soup. You're very weak now, and you need to replenish yourself."

Xiao Hanye smiled warmly: "Well... let's drink together... you also need to replenish..."

After saying this, he was out of breath again.

Chu Nanyue held his mouth and said distressedly: "Well, let's drink together, I take a sip, you take a sip."

After she finished speaking, she took a big sip first, and even made a loud swallowing sound on purpose. When she saw Xiao Hanye moving his ears, she picked up the spoon and fed him: "I've drunk it, it's your turn, ah~ open your mouth wide!"

Maybe it was because she treated him like a child for the first time, Xiao Hanye laughed inexplicably and said helplessly: "Ayue..." Then there was a "gulp" sound, and a spoonful of fresh and fragrant chicken soup went into his stomach, it was so delicious.

"Is it delicious? The meat is even more delicious. Open your mouth!" Chu Nanyue stuffed a piece of chicken into his mouth.

"Hmm!" Xiao Hanye swallowed the piece of meat with a smile, "...You eat it too..."

Seeing him swallow it, Chu Nanyue gave him a mouthful of soup and then slowly stuffed a piece of chicken into her own mouth.

The two of them drank the bowl of chicken soup, taking turns to drink.

But when it was time to feed Xiao Hanye the fish, he tightly closed his mouth and said with difficulty: "...I'm sleepy!"

Chu Nanyue said forcefully: “No, eat the fish before going to sleep, this way the wound can heal faster!”

Xiao Hanye's ears suddenly felt hot: "Ayue... let Leng Jiu come in and serve me..."

Damn, he suddenly felt like having diarrhea...
