Qing Ying had come and gone multiple times; by now, the breakfast in front of her had completely gone cold.
The Empress was truly hungry at this moment and reluctantly grabbed the chopsticks Qing Ying offered, "This palace will just taste a bit."
"This servant will pick out the fish bones for you." Qing Ying carefully separated the flesh from the fish bones with her chopsticks and placed it in the Empress's bowl.
The Empress let out a sigh, thinking that she was an Empress, a mother of the nation, and here she was worrying about her meals every day. If word got out, wouldn't it be laughed at?
She picked up the fish in front of her and chewed it. Her eyes brightened, the fish was still the usual kind, but the taste was very special. Even though she liked spicy food, she found it delicious.
