Chapter 274: Father Emperor probably can't tolerate you anymore

Murong Jiu's chopsticks hadn't stretched out when they were stopped by Divine Doctor Zhai's glance.

"The aroma of that dish is so spicy and pungent, do you think your old master can't smell it?"

"Master, I'll just taste a tiny bit, I promise only that much," she assured.

She gestured with her fingers, looking pitiful.

"You're just indulging her," said Divine Doctor Zhai with a cluck of his tongue, swiftly picking some up to taste. After chewing a few times, he immediately reached for a bowl of soup and took several sips.

"It's spicy, girl, too spicy! What kind of chili pepper is this, even hotter than cornus officinalis?"

"It's not that exaggerated, Master. You just can't handle spicy food at all!"
