Chapter 90

Gao Yao served the second dish, a plate of cooked noodles topped with a few steamed bitter melons.

Qin Shi Huang furrowed his brow and said, "Why serve this bitter dish?"

Gao Yao hurried to explain, "Your Majesty, this dish is called 'Bitterness Ends, Sweetness Comes, and the Future is Long.'"

Gao Yao used chopsticks to separate the bitter melons, revealing jujubes inside. He continued, "When you eat this dish, it starts bitter, then turns sweet. Lady left her hometown, enduring bitterness, but now, by Your Majesty's side, she should taste the sweetness."

Qin Shi Huang nodded in approval.

Yushu, however, was thinking, "Bitterness ends, sweetness comes, and the future is long. Will there be a day when Xiaochuan and I can also taste the sweetness after the bitterness?"

Gao Yao suddenly took a step back, knelt down, and said, "Your Majesty, I dare to speak to the Empress. Your Majesty and Lady are a divine couple, with many years ahead to bask in the grace of heaven. This is the future being long! Lady, only by enduring some bitterness first can you taste the sweetness. This affection is for the long future, Lady!"

Lin Yi, watching Gao Yao's performance, smiled faintly and said, "This chef is quite clever."

Qin Shi Huang was also pleased and praised, "Good! Good!"

Qin Shi Huang then said, "Come, come, come, tell me about the third dish."

He was also very interested in these new dishes.

Gao Yao was about to turn and serve the dish, but Yushu waved her hand and said, "Your Majesty, Yushu is already hungry. Just serve all the dishes together, no need to explain."

"Grand Master, what do you think?" Qin Shi Huang looked at Lin Yi.

Lin Yi smiled faintly and said, "I'm also a bit hungry. Just serve all the dishes together!"

He paused and added, "This chef is good. Your Majesty should reward him."

Qin Shi Huang nodded and said to Gao Yao, "The dishes you prepared today are very much to my liking. Since Grand Master has spoken, I will now promote you to the head of the imperial kitchen!"

Gao Yao, hearing this, was overjoyed and immediately prostrated himself, saying, "This humble servant, Gao Yao, thanks Your Majesty for your grace!"

Regarding this "Grand Master" dressed in modern clothing, he was filled with shock and curiosity. What was going on?

Qin Shi Huang treated this "Grand Master" as an equal, and his words were so effective!

Then, the eunuchs filed out, serving one dish after another. The table was filled with refreshing and appetizing dishes.

Qin Shi Huang, Yushu, and Lin Yi started eating with their chopsticks.

This was the best meal Lin Yi had since arriving in the Qin Dynasty, of a star-level standard. He thought that after bringing his mother and sister's family over, he could have Gao Yao work as a chef in his home, cooking full-time.

In the live stream, the audience had already been discussing Gao Yao's appearance—

This is the greatest tragedy of my mythological drama, Gao Yao!

Yes, one of the greatest tragedies in the myth! No second! Although Su Su's life was also hard, compared to Gao Yao, it was even harder!

Sigh! I feel sorry for Gao Yao! Returning to the Qin Dynasty over two thousand years ago, he was castrated and became a eunuch. It's not easy!

It looks like Gao Yao's mind has already been twisted after being castrated!

Gao Yao is now only focused on climbing the ranks! A power-hungry man!

Sigh! People have only two motivations: one is interest, the other is humiliation. Gao Yao is clearly the latter!

I feel for Gao Yao. Xiaochuan has a string of good luck, while he is always thinking about how to survive.

I don't think Gao Yao is wrong for turning bad. If it were me, and someone cut me, I would kill their whole family! Destroy the world!

What the hell, you're a terrorist! Destroy the world? Go to sleep!

Sigh, seeing Gao Yao, I don't know why, but my crotch feels cold.

2333, check if what's in your crotch is still there?

Don't joke about Gao Yao. Gao Yao has had a hard time!

You're being ridiculous. This is a drama! Do you think he's a real eunuch?

Exactly. The streamer even played a eunuch for a while! I bet he still has it!

...

After the meal, Qin Shi Huang stayed in Yushu's palace, continuing to cuckold Xiaochuan.

Lin Yi gave a look, and Gao Yao followed him out of the palace.

"Grand Master?" Gao Yao was curious about this man in modern clothing, who was treated as an equal by Qin Shi Huang.

Lin Yi smiled and said, "My name is Lin Yi. Xiaochuan must have mentioned me to you?"

"Is it you? From the Temporal Administration?" Gao Yao exclaimed in surprise. When Xiaochuan found him, he told him about the Temporal Administration.

Lin Yi was from the future, sent to apprehend them, the two "time travelers."

At the time, they discussed and decided not to turn themselves in to Lin Yi in Xianyang, but to find a way to return to the 21st century and run away.

However, they had no clue how to return, and instead met Liu Bang, one of them was sold to build the Great Wall, and the other became a eunuch.

"That's right, it's me," Lin Yi smiled and nodded.

"Are you here to take me back?" Gao Yao's face showed excitement, fear, and a complex mix of emotions.

He was now a disabled person!

He didn't want to leave this place. He wanted to climb higher and take revenge on those who had wronged him!

Lin Yi shook his head and said calmly, "We'll talk about that later. I won't take you back for now. Come, I'll take you to see an old friend. Xiaochuan is at my residence."

"Xiaochuan?" Gao Yao was excited, never expecting that Xiaochuan, who was sold to build the Great Wall, was actually in Xianyang and at Lin Yi's residence.

The two headed for Lin Yi's residence, which was also the Daoist temple of the截教 (Jie Jiao).

His residence, like those of Qin Shi Huang's two sons, Fusu and Huhai, was right next to the palace, almost part of the palace itself.

If Lin Yi were to stream a tour of Xianyang, it would immediately expose his time travel.

In the live stream, the audience was discussing—

What the hell is the Temporal Administration? Why did Gao Yao say that?

Damn! Grand Master, Grandmaster, and Temporal Administration! Streamer, are you sure this is a myth?

The Temporal Administration sounds so high-tech!

It looks like the streamer is from the future, sent by the Temporal Administration to catch Xiaochuan and Gao Yao, the time travelers!

What the hell, that's a good guess.

Temporal Administration from the future? I'm not well-read, don't lie to me!
