288 The prince held a banquet
288
These two meals also left a good impression on Li Hui in everyone's hearts, the biggest change is that everyone is not as ignorant of Li Hui as they were yesterday, Mingyan even asked Li Hui if he needed any ingredients, if it is convenient, he will buy a little first, and he will save going back in case there is any shortage.
Li Hui was not polite, she directly listed a string of purchase documents, and asked Mingyan to prepare all these things for herself, and this turned out to be a temporary additional carriage for their group to store the things purchased by Li Hui. And the food on the way was completely handed over to Li Hui.
"We probably won't be able to find a place to stay tomorrow for a few days, so please prepare more dry food for the girl!"
"Okay, I see!" Li Hui thought for a moment and nodded.
Although she didn't know what was going on, Li Hui could clearly sense that the atmosphere was a little depressing, she thought about it for a while and bought all the flour in the inn where she stayed, and then He Shuo'er worked hard for most of the night, making all these noodles into dry food, each one wrapped in oiled paper, and put it in two boxes.
Sure enough, they left before dawn the next day, but fortunately, Li Hui and Shuo'er could still sit in the carriage and squint for a while, otherwise they would really be sleepy to death. The group did not stop rushing all day, and at noon everyone was about to nibble on a steamed bun, and it was not until evening that they found a place with flat terrain near the water source and set up camp.
Li Hui got out of the carriage and moved his body, and began to direct Shuo'er to move a few big stones over to build a simple stove, wash a large pot, put up half a pot of water, and let people take care of the fire, Li Hui took Shuo'er to a small river not far away, and after a while, he saw Shuo'er with wet hair and a few fish that had been cleaned up, and came back behind Li Hui.
"Girl, are you going to catch fish?" Mingyan said in surprise when she saw the fish in Shuo'er's hand, where they lived, there were more mountains and rivers than less water, so most of them couldn't swim, and it was really surprising to see Li Hui take Shuo'er to make so many fish in a short time.
"This fish was made by Shuo'er, and his water quality is better!" Li Hui said with a smile while carrying the lantern.
Mingyan looked at the short Shuo'er and cocked his thumb, "It's amazing! I didn't expect to have such a good water nature at such a young age!"
Shuo'er was very indifferent to Mingyan's praise, this skill that looked very powerful in the eyes of others was actually not a good memory for him, why his water nature was so good, it was because he went down to the river to fish when he couldn't find food in the past.
Li Hui selected the largest fish and made it into braised fish for Huai Gongzi, and the rest of the fish was chopped into minced fish and made into fish balls, and the fish head was not wasted and boiled into fish head soup with fish balls, and everyone was very happy to eat with pancakes. And in the evening, Li Hui and Shuo'er spent a night in the carriage. In this way, they have been walking for four or five days, and it was already very hard to rush like this, but the old lady actually rained heavily at this time, and everyone finally found a broken temple to temporarily shelter from the rain.
"What is the girl going to do now?How can I get something for the master to eat in such weather?" Mingyan was so anxious that she didn't even bother to change the wet clothes on her body and came to Li Hui.
"Don't worry, I've been prepared!" Li Hui waved his hand to indicate that there was no problem, and at this time, Shuo'er found Li Hui a pair of clean embroidered shoes and socks to change into for Li Hui.
"That's good! That's good! I have never doubted the girl's craftsmanship!" As soon as Mingyan heard Li Hui say that she had already prepared, she immediately nodded with a smile, "Then I won't disturb the girl, you are busy, I'll go change clothes first!"
After sending away the cigarettes, Li Hui asked people to help move all the things he needed from the carriage, and here Li Hui's speed can be said to be very fast, everyone just changed the wet clothes on their bodies Not long ago, Li Hui's cooked noodles were fine.
"Is this noodle so strange?" said Huai Gongzi, picking up a noodle with chopsticks.
"This side said that it was made before, just boiled the water and scalded it, put in some specially made cheeks, although it is simpler, but the small ones smell very fragrant!" Mingyan said to his master with a smile.
"That's right, this Li's cooking skills are excellent!" Huai Gongzi smiled, and then picked up a chopstick noodle and sent it to his mouth, after entering the mouth, he immediately felt that this noodle was strong and chewy, and this noodle was not only fragrant, but also spicy, after eating a bowl after such a heavy rain, he immediately felt the chill on his body disappear.
This noodle not only thinks Huai Gongzi is good, but it has been unanimously recognized by everyone, and even many people ran to ask Li Hui how to make this noodle.
"In fact, this noodle is very simple to make, you replace the water used with eggs when you make noodles, roll it out after it is done, cut it into thin noodles and divide it into a suitable size, put it in the drain and put it in the oil pan and fry it until golden brown, take it out and let it cool, wrap it in oil paper, put it in a jar or box that is not easy to get wet, when you want to eat it, take it out or steam it in the basket and mix it with vegetables, or go down to the pot to eat the noodle soup like today, because it is cooked, so it does not need to be cooked for a long timeใ As for this sauce, it is simply boiled with diced beef and butter and seasonings, because there is butter in it and there is no moisture, so it is relatively easy to store!"
Li Hui explained this kind of noodle practice to everyone in detail, and this kind of behavior without any concealment of personal interests won unanimous praise from everyone. After a night, the rain became lighter, but this weather was still not suitable for travel, but under such weather, Huai Gongzi still decided to get up and go on the road, so everyone silently packed up and continued on the road.
After walking for another four or five days, they finally came to a big road from the path they had been traveling, and not far from the road, everyone abandoned the carriage, and everyone hid in the grove on the side, and after almost an hour, a sergeant in leather armor came here on horseback from a distance, and saw the sergeant Mingyan come out and give him a gesture, and then the other party nodded his head in understanding, then pulled the reins and turned back, and after almost a meal, a team and a battle appeared in front of everyoneAnd strangely enough, the group stopped not far from them to rest, and even more strangely, a man in a white robe and a golden crown walked out with a few followers, and went straight to the place where they were hiding.
The two sides seemed to have been premeditated, and soon everyone merged together, at this time Li Hui noticed that the clothes on the other party's man were exactly the same as those worn by the Huai Gongzi, and the other party handed over the golden crown on his head to Ming Yan and quickly changed his disguise, and after wearing the golden crown, Huai Gongzi swaggered towards the group of people.
"Girl~!" Shuo'er looked at the soldiers wearing weapons around her, and clenched her fists nervously.
"It's okay! relax!" Li Hui turned his head and gave Shuo'er a reassuring smile, the current situation was not easy for him to appease him excessively, but fortunately, Shuo'er was a boy, much more daring than a girl, and after a little adaptation, it became normal.
After walking in the group of people, Mingyan took Li Hui and Shuo'er to another place, where it could be seen that several maids were busy there.
"Come here~!" Mingyan pointed to one of the maids and said something, and the maid hurriedly put down the work in her hand and ran over.
"I don't know what Mingyan commands~!" As soon as the maid saw that Mingyan was calling herself, she hurriedly ran over with a smile on her face.
As if he hadn't seen the obvious stammering smoke on the other side, he pointed to Li Hui and said, "These two are the cooks I specially found for our prince, you arrange it, and everything she needs is prepared, and the prince will eat her dishes at night!"
"Yes, I'll make sure I make it!" the maid immediately nodded with a smile on her face.
"Then I'll be by the prince's side first, if you lack anything here, come to me directly!" Mingyan said to Li Hui with a smile.
Li Hui smiled and nodded at Mingyan, "Thank you, Mingyan!"
"Thank you, thank you, we are all going to serve the master!" Mingyan waved his hand and left directly.
"Is this sister familiar with Mingyan?" After Mingyan left, the maid asked Li Hui.
"Well~!, it's not bad, he bought me!" Although he was very surprised that this Huai Gongzi suddenly became a prince, Li Hui still behaved very calmly.
Li Hui's somewhat cold answer made the other party very unhappy, but she was also very aware of her identity when she was unhappy, she was just a third-class maid, and she had no ability at all, otherwise the drudgery would not have fallen on her head this time.
"You're in this carriage!" the maid took Li Hui to a carriage and said, "By the way, my name is Luru, if you have anything to do, come to me directly!"
"Okay~!thank you~!" Li Hui said thank you to Lu Ru lightly, although her tone will not give people a very cordial feeling, but there is all the politeness that should be, but it makes Lu Ru, who has always been a subordinate, very useful, and also makes Lu Ru's impression of Li Hui change a lot.
After Lu Ru left, Shuo'er jumped into the carriage quickly, but as soon as he entered the carriage and saw the situation inside, his face pulled down, although there was no one in the carriage, but there were a few burdens in the corner, and the situation in the carriage was a little messy, Shuo'er knew that this carriage was not just for the two of them.
"What's wrong?" Li Hui saw that Shuo'er had not moved at the carriage for a long time, so she looked inside along the gap, the carriage was not big, and she just glanced at the situation inside, "You put our things on the side, don't touch other people's things!"
"Hmm!" Shuo'er responded in a sullen voice, and then put him and Li Hui's burden at the door, he didn't feel anything about waiting to be squeezed into a carriage with others, what made him unhappy was that Li Hui also had to squeeze with others, the space of this carriage was so large, it must be uncomfortable to squeeze so many people, the girl in his own family is so good, she should enjoy the best things in the world, how can she suffer such a sin!
Of course, Li Hui didn't know what Shuo'er was thinking in her heart, and Li Hui was actually very satisfied with the current situation, at least she had escaped from that fire pit. As for how to go next, although I haven't figured it out yet, it's at least stronger than in the Lingering Fragrance Courtyard before!
Originally, the stay here was to replace the identity of Huai Gongzi, and now that the person has been replaced, of course, there is no need to delay here for long, so everyone quickly started on the road again, and Li Hui was assigned to the carriage There were already four people in the car before, and now in addition to her and Shuo'er became very crowded, and finally in order to make more space for everyone, Li Hui simply let Shuo'er sit in her arms, she has always regarded Shuo'er as a child, and she doesn't think there is any problem, but Shuo'er feels that she is a boy and is very embarrassed to be held like this, but soon Shuo'er couldn't care about his little discomfort, because Li Hui, who was already very tired with the shaking of the carriage, dozed off, and in order to prevent Li Hui from crashing into the carriage in such a situation, he focused on taking care of Li Hui!
As soon as the carriage stopped, Li Hui knew that her time had come, she hurriedly took Shuo'er to Luru and asked where the stove was, but before Luru took her over, she ran into Mingyan halfway before she could go.
"I'm just going to find the girl!" As soon as Mingyan saw Li Hui, he walked up a few steps quickly and said, "Wait a minute, the prince is going to invite Master An, you have to show me a good hand!
