"Oh my goodness…" the Queen Mother blurted out in shock, her eyes widening slightly. "Is this still food?!"
She immediately turned toward the servants standing nearby, both of whom instantly understood what she wanted without needing further instructions.
Another fork was quickly brought over to her.
The Queen Mother took another bite, then another.
