Bei Yutang curled her lips in a smile.
“Not bad.”
Everyone was shocked to see her speak so boldly.
No one present, even Long Yi and Long Er, Feng Chi’s most trusted men, dared speak to him in such a manner, let alone look him in the eye.
Her composure and calmness truly shocked and impressed everyone.
Feng Chi raised his eyebrows slightly.
“Come, execute everyone in the imperial kitchen. How dare they let me eat food that even a slave girl would disdain?”
The guards who had been led by Long Er immediately left.
Bei Yutang was furious, but she didn’t show it on her face. She knew that scolding him or pleading for them would only strengthen the tyrant’s resolve to kill them.
Bei Yutang smiled and said, “So, even our high and mighty King has only just realized what he’s been eating. Those chefs deserve to die. They dared to deceive the King like this.”
Feng Chi asked with interest, “What do you think should be done?”
“Of course, they should be cut into pieces.” Bei Yutang replied with a smile.
Gesang was shocked again when she heard Bei Yutang’s words. She couldn’t imagine such vicious words coming from her mouth.
Feng Chi’s lips curled.
“This is what you want. This King will do as you wish. Long Er, give the order.”
Bei Yutang was secretly anxious.
Damn it! Why didn’t he contradict her?
“My King is wise.” Bei Yutang still kept a faint smile on her face.
Feng Chi saw the forbearance in her eyes. Although she hid it well, it still didn’t escape his eyes. She wanted to save the chefs, but he did not go as she wished.
Seeing that he had no intention of letting them go, Bei Yutang already had a bad premonition in her heart.
Perhaps the tyrant had guessed her intentions.
“Since Your Majesty has said you’ll follow my wishes, I think this method of being cut into pieces is too commonplace. There’s nothing new about it. How about trying something else?”
Feng Chi was in high spirits.
“Which one?”
“Since they’re chefs, why not let them use their culinary skills to decide their own life and death? Whoever’s cooking skills conquer everyone will have the right to decide the fate of others and how they die. Wouldn’t that be more interesting?”
Feng Chi tapped his fingers on the table, as if considering the feasibility of her method.
Bei Yutang appeared calm and composed, but inside, she was extremely nervous.
Feng Chi’s moods were unpredictable, and she couldn’t fathom him at all.
Feng Chi’s dark gaze swept across her face, a wicked smile playing on his lips.
“I think a thousand cuts would be better.”
Bei Yutang’s heart sank, certain he must have known her intentions.
He had been toying with her.
He hadn’t considered letting those chefs go.
No matter her attitude, whether she truly wanted them dead or alive, he wouldn’t let them go.
The smile on Bei Yutang’s lips faded.
Feng Chi wasn’t surprised by her change of heart.
“Their death has been chosen. Now it’s your turn. Guess, would you rather be cut into pieces or torn apart by five horses?” Feng Chi looked at her calmly.
Bei Yutang asked calmly, “Are you letting me choose?”
“Yes. Choose the death method you want.”
Bei Yutang smiled and said, “Then I’ll have to think carefully about how to make my death less painful. A cup of poisoned wine? No, no, too painful. Hanging is also painful and long-lasting. No, no, no.”
