Xiao Changyi also paid no heed to the Emperor of Xiyun, and simply placed bowls and chopsticks directly in front of the four people.
It was An Jing who, smiling, explained: "It's just that some vegetable juice was added while kneading the dough. Depending on what kind of vegetable juice, the dough gets dyed that particular color. For instance, the green dumplings were made with spinach juice."
The Emperor of Xiyun praised her: "Jingjing is clever."
An Jing, however, just sweated. She really didn't feel flattered by his praise; on the contrary, she thought if her modern-day comrades knew she was being praised for this, they would definitely laugh their heads off.
Before moving his chopsticks, Eunuch Fu, who stood behind the Emperor of Xiyun, wanted to come forward with a silver needle to test for poison, but was stopped by the emperor himself.
