The Soldier King Becomes a Useless Little Girl-Chapter 873 - 871: A Shocking Statement
Emperor Toad?
The court officials and foreign guests looked in the direction Xin Lin pointed.
"Xin Lin, what nonsense are you talking about? This Dark Spirit Beast was clearly given by General Nalan, what does it have to do with you?"
Long Qingchen almost jumped up.
He had seen shameless people before, but never one so shameless.
Chu Beiqing came empty-handed to celebrate the birthday, which was forgivable.
His daughter was even more shameless, directly taking someone else’s grand gift as her own?
Over this Dark Spirit Beast, he was already at his wit’s end. Xin Lin’s nonsense was making it hard for him to explain things to his father.
"Xin Lin, that was the Tai Sui Clam sent by General Nalan from Hai Zhang Country."
Emperor Longteng lightly coughed, reminding Xin Lin.
"May I ask, General Nalan, is this Tai Sui Clam also called Emperor Toad?"
Xin Lin looked at General Nalan.
"Yes. Do you know Emperor Toad?"
General Nalan was somewhat surprised.
Being in Longteng for such a long time, no one recognized the Emperor Toad; didn’t expect a little girl to do so?
But even if she recognizes it, so what? General Nalan did not believe Xin Lin could prepare it.
Being a Five-star Dark Spiritual Beast, in a Spiritual Food Country like Hai Zhang, it would at least require a Five-star Spirit Chef to prepare.
The little girl before him was young; being able to cook would be impressive enough.
"If it’s Emperor Toad, then that’s right."
Xin Lin bowed, expressing thanks.
"Father, she..."
Long Qingchen still wanted to say something.
"Shut up, you think the trouble you’ve caused isn’t big enough?"
Emperor Longteng glared angrily at Long Qingchen.
"Ladies and gentlemen, no need to panic, actually, this is just a play arranged by His Majesty to welcome our esteemed guests."
In front of over a hundred guests, Xin Lin confidently performed a bow.
"A play? Little girl, what a big tone you have. Are you implying that everything that just happened was fake?"
General Nalan was taken aback, then immediately mocked.
"What’s true or false, General Nalan, why bother? As long as I can prepare the Emperor Toad."
Xin Lin pointed at the Emperor Toad.
"Xin Lin, you can’t just spout nonsense. You can prepare the Emperor Toad? I doubt you can even get close."
Master Chen reprimanded from the side.
This Emperor Toad is extremely formidable, the ice arrow it sprays is deadly, not to mention, no culinary handbook has ever recorded how to prepare it.
If Xin Lin just casually claims she can prepare Emperor Toad and something goes wrong later, being a member of the Spiritual Cuisine Master Association, it wouldn’t be the Association’s reputation at stake?
"Whether I can prepare it, we’ll know after trying. However, before preparing, I want to ask His Majesty to grant me two requests."
Xin Lin pleaded with Emperor Longteng.
"Xin Lin, you have some nerve, daring to negotiate terms with His Majesty?"
Empress Feng looked displeased, Xin Lin was becoming increasingly presumptuous.
"It’s not negotiating terms, just requesting His Majesty’s help to release the Imperial Kitchen’s chefs and dining officers, pardoning their punishments. The Imperial Kitchen is empty now, without anyone preparing the royal feast, how can the birthday banquet proceed?"
Upon hearing this, Emperor Longteng glared at Long Qingchen.
The latter shrank his neck, not daring to speak.
"Release the people from the Imperial Kitchen, pardon them without punishment. What is the second request then?"
Emperor Longteng asked.
"Your Majesty, do you truly believe her?"
Empress Feng was shocked.
Emperor Longteng glanced at Empress Feng, thinking, how could she be so inflexible this time?
At this point, it’s not about whether Xin Lin can prepare Emperor Toad, at least she can recognize it.
Whereas other Spiritual Delicacy Masters, including Five-star Spirit Chefs like President Mu, wouldn’t prepare Emperor Toad or dare to make a move.
