Translator: _Min_ Editor: Rainystars

Hmm, I went home a few days ago and learned a novel pastry recipe. I want to make it for Your Majesty and the two Royal Highnesses. Do you think that's okay? Chen Mo bowed and said.

His back was already covered in cold sweat.

Is that so? Xiao Yunxi rubbed her fair and flawless chin with her fingers, and immediately said, Then let's make them both.

Chen Mo was speechless

Your Majesty, because you don't know, the pastry I made for you before is more complicated, and some ingredients need to be prepared in advance. If I have to make them both, there may not be enough time.

Chen Mo could swear that his brain has never worked this hard in his life.

As for the novelty pastries he said, they were naturally the pastries from the Blue Star in his previous life.

Xiao Yunxi gazed at Chen Mo, deep in thought.

Chen Mo tried his best to not look away, and when he finally couldn't stand the pierce of her gaze, he said, Your Majesty, if it really won't work, I'll do my best to make both kinds of pastries?

No need, you can just make the kind of novel pastry you mentioned, Xiao Yunxi said.

Roger that.

Chen Mo breathed a sigh of relief.

I'm very optimistic about you, so don't let me down.

Xiao Yunxi stood up and raised her hand.

Chen Mo thought she wanted him to help her get up, so he quickly stepped forward and grabbed Xiao Yunxi's hand.

[Ding! The orange talent pool has been expanded.]

DISRESPECTFUL! When Wang Ying saw this, he was so frightened that his soul was about to leave him, he immediately shouted at Chen Mo. Little Chen, what are you doing?

Don't you want me to help you get up? Chen Mo was paralyzed.

Presumptuous, how can someone who has no roots in your heart be able to touch your majesty's divine body, come here Wang Ying's forehead oozed with sweat. After all, he did say a few words of praise for the Empress yesterday, but he didn't expect such a thing to happen now.

If His Majesty learned this

Ps Xiao Yunxi burst out laughing, then waved her hand and said, Wang Ying, it's okay.

Wang Ying nodded, and then shouted at Chen Mo again. Your Majesty has a kind heart and forgives your sins. Say thank you to Your Majesty.

Many thanks, Chen Mo said nervously, while he cursed at the Qing Palace dramas he watched in his mind a thousand times.

That's right, what he did just now, was copied from Qing Palace dramas, he thought the Empress wanted his help.

Okay, you can all go now, Xiao Yunxi said.

Roger that.

Roger that.

Roger that.

Outer hall.

Little Chen, you don't want to live anymore? Even if you don't want to live, don't drag me into this. You actually went to touch the empress' divine body, Wang Ying scolded Chen Mo.

Chen Mo listened obediently, and then asked, What was the empress doing just now?

She was asking Cai'er to bring her the towel. Wang Ying said, feeling defeated, then looked at Cai'er again, and started to scold her, You too, Cai'er, you don't have any eyesight, if it wasn't for the empress's kind heart, If your

master was either Concubine Yu or Concubine Qing, you would have been killed long ago.

Cai'er was frightened and nervous, she was extremely fearful for what just happened .

But Wang Ying was not finished as he scolded Chen Mo again, Did you lose your brain after you went back this time? How come you still don't know the rules and need someone to teach you?

Chief, you're right. Chen Mo, after the fact, was also frightened.

Okay, you two, listen to me clearly. What happened just now, is between god, you and I. If you don't want to die, you'd better keep your mouth shut, Wang Ying said sternly.

I'm sca scared, I will never say say it. The little girl was so scared that she was about to cry.

Chen Mo also nodded.

Would I dare to say something that risked my life?

Come and read on our website wuxia worldsite. Thanks

When Wang Ying received the assurance from the two, he looked slightly less serious and then said to Chen Mo. As for the pastry, I'll ask Little Mirror to help you, and we must do it well.

Roger, Chen Mo responded, and then said, Chief Wang, the crown prince and the princess are coming over, is there anything special? So I can prepare.

You don't know? Wang Ying looked at Chen Mo suspiciously.

What do I know? Chen Mo was dumbfounded.

If the original person's memory was not counted, Chen Mo was completely clueless about this world. Combined with his understanding from the previous world that only came from dramas and movies, his knowledge was limited.

Today is Princess Fumao's birthday, Cai'er said in a quiet voice.

Birthday?

Chen Mo was shocked again. Why are there no decorations?

The empress cares about the world and the people so she didn't want to make a big deal just because it is her daughter's birthday, which would be a waste of money and labor. Therefore, three years ago, she decided to keep things simple every time this happened, Wang Ying said.

Oh. Chen Mo nodded.

Then, Chen Mo and Little Mirror went to the small kitchen in Weiyang Palace.

Even if it was a small kitchen, it was bigger than any kitchen that Chen Mo had seen in his previous life. There were all kinds of ingredients and kitchen cookwares in it.

Brother Hong, what do you want us to do next? Little Mirror said with flattery in his voice.

Beside Little Mirror, Wang Ying also arranged for two third-class eunuchs to help him.

Uh, Little Mirror, break the egg.

Well, you

My name is Little Li.

And you?

My name is Xi'er.

Okay, Little Li, go and prepare flour and sugar.

Xi'er, go and prepare some milk. Chen Mo arranged work for several people one by one.

Then he reminded Little Mirror, Remember to separate the egg whites from the yolks. Beat the egg whites a little longer until you see white foam.

That's right, Chen Mo wanted to bake a birthday cake.

When he was in university, he worked part-time in a cake shop and learned the steps of making birthday cakes.

Plus a birthday cake was indeed novel.

Roger.

Little Mirror did as Chen Mo said.

Brother Hong, is there no cow milk, is goat's milk or deer's milk okay? Xi'er said after looking around.

Uh, use goat milk.

Chen Mo didn't try it either, so he didn't know if it was possible.

But since the principle was similar, it was in theory possible.

First he added a small amount of oil to the goat milk, stirred well, added flour, stirred again

Based on his memory, Chen Mo started to make the cake step by step.

In the process, his talent pool also expanded by a lot.

But they were all ordinary eunuchs, and their talents were all blue.

It took nearly three hours.

Chen Mo finally made a three-layer birthday cake.

Because there was no chocolate.

Chen Mo used the special fruits of this world for decoration.

Brother Hong, what's the name of this dessert? It's the first time I've seen it. It's so beautiful. Little Mirror said.

It's called a birthday cake. Chen Mo smiled.

Birthday cake?! Little Mirror's eyes lit up and said, Great name.

Little Chen, are the pastries ready? Wang Ying came over at this moment to rush him.
