Chapter 158: The Delicious Waiter Returns
Yunyang didn't speak, but drank green and answered: "What a big joy, tell me quickly, our Qiao Palace has been too quiet these days." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
With a smile, he walked up to Yunyang and saluted respectfully: "The slave maid asks for peace to the concubine Niangniang, and the maid is blessed with Jin'an." ”
Yunyang raised his eyebrows: "Suiyun, it's not like I haven't seen you for a long time, what are you doing to salute?" ”
"Slaves and maids should cherish the opportunity to give salutes to the concubine." Sui Su said seriously: "Because I'm afraid that in the future, the slave and maid will not be able to call you a concubine." ”
Listening to Sui Xuan's words, Yu Lu's heart sank, and he hurriedly played a round and said, "Sui Xuan, you went out and froze your tongue, right?" Excuse your mother! ”
Yunyang's face also became solemn: "What do you mean by your words?" ”
Seeing that the two of them had changed their expressions, Sui Yun realized that the joke was too big, and quickly explained: "Hui Niangniang, that's the case." ”
"This morning, the slave maid took the flat dan and the pot to the Inner Government Bureau to get some melons and fruits. But the skillful manager of Zhang's father-in-law was not there, so we waited in the main hall of the Inner Government Bureau for a while. ”
"One of the problems of slaves and maids is that when they come to a new place, they can't sit still, so they have to look east and west, and wander around. When the slave and maid turned to the west wing, they heard two men talking in the wing. ”
These two people were chatting happily, and they said that they had just gone to Xuande Hall to deliver something, and they happened to hear that the emperor was talking to the prime minister about the concubine. They discussed that they wanted to be close to Qi Ao Palace, so as not to catch them off guard when you were named a concubine in a few days. ”
When he heard this, his voice trembled a little in shock: "If it's true, then Sui Xuan has made a great contribution!" The emperor has a deep affection for Niangniang, coupled with Niangniang's illustrious background, and it is well deserved to become a concubine. ”
Yunyang didn't pay attention to Suiyun, and the expression on his face was light: "Since you went to the Inner Government Bureau, tell me what you got back?" ”
Sui Su originally thought that she had such a huge good news, and the mother might reward her as soon as she was happy. But I never expected this to be the result.
Endured the incomprehension and questions in his heart, he stood aside with his hands down and said, "Back to Niangniang, the slaves and maids pushed a wooden cart and brought back fresh melons and fruits. ”
"This time, in terms of meat, the Inner Government Bureau gave venison, pheasant, rabbit meat and beef. There are also whitebait, pigeon eggs, live rabbits and plugged weasels. ”
Yin Lu asked, "Do you still bring back any melons and fruits?" ”
"Of course there is." There are Jiangnan tangerines, which are rare in this season, as well as olives, pomegranates and lotus roots. In addition, there are chicken fir mushrooms from Yunnan, Tianhua vegetables from Wutai Mountain, kelp from the East China Sea, sea cabbage and seaweed. ”
Here Sui Yunzheng replied to Niangniang seriously, and listened to the sound of the velvet curtain at the entrance of the palace, and the stone walked in and said: "Hui Niangniang, just now Xuande Palace's little Pan Gonggong came to pass the word, tonight the emperor is going to come to Qiao Palace for dinner, please Niangniang prepare." ”
Zhao Yuan is coming over tonight, how can Yun Yang not be overjoyed when he hears such words? The corners of her lips curled up sweetly: "Let Yifangzhai present tonight's food list." ”
After a while, Yifangzhai's grandmother presented the food list. Yunyang said to this grandmother: "In the first month, the emperor has a lot of things, and his body is very tired, so tonight the imperial meal of Qiao Palace will be made more, soft, and nourishing." ”
Mama nodded again and again after hearing this, and said: "Niangniang is meticulous and thinks about the emperor everywhere. The slaves and maids have nothing to do, but they are loyal and reliable, as long as the mother speaks, the slaves and maids will do it. ”
Yun Yang listened to it and said approvingly: "Okay, this palace likes a cheerful person like you." After saying that, Yunyang called Yinlu over and asked her to sit next to her to record.
Yun Yang took the food list and looked at it and said: "In addition to the honey peanuts, strange cashew nuts, walnut sticky, and apple gummies in the four dried fruits, the dinner also adds the four candied fruits - candied ginkgo, candied cherries, candied melon strips and candied golden dates. ”
"The emperor doesn't like sweets like bean paste, so he keeps jade cakes and chestnut cakes in the four dim sum dishes, and replaces two-color bean cakes and bean paste rolls with lotus buns and minced meat cakes."
"In addition, the emperor likes to drink some three-color rice porridge at night, so you will prepare four pickles - sweet sauce and grapes, spiced cooked mustard, sweet and sour milk melon and sweet brocade."
Hearing this, the grandmother of Yifangzhai couldn't help but admire and said: "Niangniang, you have chosen these dishes that are all light in taste but have a strong aftertaste, which are suitable for evening consumption." ”
"The Wanhe fruity tea on the menu tastes too sweet and sour, but it is very good if it is used by this palace. I'm afraid that the emperor doesn't like this fruity strong tea, and the last time the emperor praised the sweet taste of the tribute tea in the south this year, then tonight's tea will be prepared for Zhulan generous. ”
"The red rodin in the appetizer is a cold dish made with cream and blood clots; Jushengnu is made by putting honey and mutton fat into noodles and deep-frying them with black sesame seeds; Guifei red is a refined flavored red pastry; Wuxing Lian is a cold dish marinated in raw fish; Tongxin raw knot is raw meat cut into strips, beaten into palindrome knots, and then air-dried to make dried meat and steamed. ”
"Although these kinds are very suitable for the emperor's taste, they are too fragrant and heavy, and I am afraid that the emperor will enter the fire at night. Therefore, be sure to add more soup and water to the main dish. ”
"For example, simmered deer tendon in a casserole, shredded chicken white fungus osmanthus fish, white grilled chrysanthemum loin, braised red scallops, etc."
"Also, in addition to the first-grade official swallow on the soup tonight, add a snow clam fish lip."
After Yun Yang finished asking these questions, he said to Mama: "These drinking greens have been written down for you, so you can take the list she wrote down and go back to prepare." ”
Mama bowed and said, "The slave is going to prepare, and I must prepare the dishes according to my mother's wishes, and please rest assured." ”
Yunyang smiled lightly and said, "There is Mama Lao." ”
After a while, the inner sanctum of the Qiao Palace was quiet again. Yunyang left the drink green behind and let the others disperse.
At this time, Yin Lu also took a flower bandage and stretched it into the other end of the light towel. She and Yunyang took the corner of the light towel and quietly embroidered it with their heads bowed.
At this time, I heard footsteps outside, and then Shi walked in and said back and forth: "Hui Niangniang, King Rui has come to congratulate you on the spring, and he has now arrived at the gate of the palace." ”
Yunyang really didn't expect King Rui to come to He Chun, she was a little nervous for a while, she immediately said to the stone: "Please wait for King Rui in the side hall, the palace will arrive soon." ”
The stone turned and went out of the inner sanctum, and went to the gate of the palace to deliver the message.
"I have no friendship with King Rui, and his mother, Concubine Chen, is a woman with a deep city. I don't know if Concubine Chen asked him to come today, or if he wanted to come by himself. Yunyang pursed her lips a little nervously.
"If Concubine Chen asked him to come to Hechun, it would mean to win over. If it weren't for Concubine Chen's instructions, King Rui's personal visit would definitely not be an ordinary He Chun, and he must still have a purpose. ”
