Chapter 216: Honey Three Knives
(=Small=Said=Net=Look=Most=New=Chapter=Section*****]* The sky tiles are blue, and the glazed tiles in the Forbidden City are shining with dazzling light. I heard some people on the street say that it is the real dragon dragon scales on the emperor's body, and some say that it is dragon energy.
Probably because the emperor's roof is also leaking and has not been repaired with silver, and now the storytellers in the capital say that this is because God can't stand it, so it won't rain, so as not to make the real dragon Tianzi sleep unstable.
Li Wei, who had just come out of a shop, was a little surprised, and the rumors in the capital seemed to have popped up overnight.
But in the mouths of the people, the emperor is a real dragon, the Son of Heaven, and even God takes care of him. They weren't joking, although there were jokes in their words, but eighty percent of them were sincere.
The emperor weishenme has no money to build the palace, and he has to live in a dilapidated palace, of course, because the emperor is frugal. The emperor was reluctant to spend money, and the officials were greedy when he saved the money.
So the bad ones are all corrupt officials with bad hearts, and the emperor is haode, which is to blind them.
The car was full of large bags of snacks. It's rare for her to go out, and she wants to try the snacks on the street outside. Honey three knives, hala beans, taro crisp or something. It's a pity that there is no here, the problem is that she was a fan of western pastries, she can make cream cakes and ice cream cookies, but she can't make Chinese dim sum, and there is an old-fashioned dim sum shop in the vegetable market not far from the door, which is particularly authentic.
I still can't find it when I want to eat it.
But now there is also a sweet smell of dim sum in the carriage, she bought four packs of sesame crisp alone, all of which are from different stores, try which one is delicious, and buy it next time.
Back in the house, she first divided the dim sum into several portions and gave them to Ergege and Hongyu in front of her. I'm used to eating things in the house, and I feel that the outside is fresh.
In the evening, the fourth master came over and saw the dim sum plate on the table, and said with a smile: "Everywhere is this fragrance, today in front, Hongyu can eat a lot." As he spoke, he picked up a piece and tasted it, saying, "The outside doesn't taste bad." ”
But she still remembered the honey three knives, and after a while, she asked the fourth master to set it out.
No wonder Hongyu's dim sum over there has been eaten, and the room in this house is still well placed. The fourth master put down the tea and called Su Peisheng and said, "Ask someone to ask and see if you know about this honey three knives." ”
Li Wei suddenly felt stupid, and no one knew about it if it wasn't Western dim sum, so she had to say what she did before she could ask the dining room to do it. Dignified Chinese dim sum, as long as it has been invented in this era, you don't have to worry about it.
…… It should have been invented, right?
She was worried here, and Su Peisheng personally went to the dining room to find Eunuch Liu.
"Honey three knives?" Eunuch Liu wiped his hands and came out. Su Peisheng saw that his face was smiling like a flower, and he knew that he would definitely do it, and he had the intention to sell him a favor, so he said: "Exactly, Master Li hasn't found it after going out for a day, and he still wants to eat it at this time." Tell the master to know, and specially ask me to ask you. How's it going? Chef Liu, will you make this honey three knives? ”
Eunuch Liu didn't accept his favor, and turned to praise others: "Why else is it Master Li?" This honey three knives is not ordinary. ”
Su Peisheng didn't sell his favor, and his face hung up. How surprising can a snack that you have never heard of?
Eunuch Liu smiled and said, "This is Su Dongpo's name." I really know how to do it, I did it tonight, and I will send it to my master early tomorrow morning. He saw that Su Peisheng's face was not good-looking, and said to him even more happily: "Father-in-law Su, I will also leave you a plate tomorrow, so that you can taste it too?" ”
Su Peisheng's face was as thick as a city wall, and he knew that Eunuch Liu was going to choke him, so he also said generously: "Okay, the dim sum that the master loves must be haode, I will dip the master back to the light and taste this honey three knives." ”
When Su Peisheng left, Eunuch Liu sighed: "The future life is terrifying." "This shameless thing!
In the east courtyard, the fourth master listened to Su Peisheng's words, and smiled at her: "I didn't expect this allusion." ”
Li Wei doesn't know, it's just folklore, right? But in this way, this dim sum seems to be out of low-level taste, not pure appetite, but closer to celebrities.
The fourth master smiled happily when he saw her, and said to her: "Are you happy this time?" Take this top first, and you can eat this honey three knives tomorrow. After speaking, he took a piece of sesame cake and handed it to her.
The next day, after the honey three knives came out, the fourth master asked someone to send a box to the study.
He and Dai Duo each tasted two pieces, and Dai Duo smiled and said: "Students can also put this snack into a box, when the student is in his hometown, the student's father likes to eat this kind of sweet and soft dim sum." ”
So, when he went to the palace for the New Year, the fourth master brought a box of dim sum.
He is also popular in the palace now, and when he entered the palace, he first went to the south study, found someone to invite Liang Jiugong, handed him the food box and said: "The dim sum I ate by chance, I thought that Huang Ama had been unable to eat it recently. ”
Liang Jiugong took it and sighed: "The fourth master is really filial piety, and the slave is ......" Before he finished speaking, his eyes turned red.
The fourth master was modest, saying that his father-in-law was hard, and then he took his leave. Liang Jiugong wanted to keep him, and said: "The fourth master might as well stand for a while, and the slave will go in to report, maybe the long live master will ask you to go in and talk?" "Besides, isn't that why you made this trip?
The fourth master hesitated and said, "Since my father-in-law said so, I might as well be respectful." ”
"Don't dare, don't dare." After Liang Jiugong finished speaking, he went to Xinuan Pavilion with the food box.
When the little eunuch called him, he waited in front of the emperor. The emperor glanced at him, and he took the initiative to say that the fourth master was calling him out outside.
The emperor said: "Then you can go and see what is going on with the fourth child." ”
At this time, he came back with the food box, waved away the little eunuch who wanted to come over and take the food box, and walked straight to the emperor.
Kangxi glanced at the food box he was carrying, put down the fold and said, "This is what the fourth child brought?" ”
Liang Jiugong had already opened it before coming in just now, and at this time, in front of the emperor, he opened the lid of the box and said, "Sibeile said that you don't have a good appetite these days, so you brought it on purpose." ”
As soon as the round red sandalwood confectionery box painted with Nanshan pine is opened, the sweet fragrance of honey three knives spreads.
Liang Jiugong took the silver chopsticks and took himself to taste one first, and after stopping for a while, he changed the pair of chopsticks to the prince and gave one to the prince, and presented it in a small plate.
Kangxi took it into his mouth, and as soon as he bit it, the honey juice flowed out, sweet and soft, and the more he chewed, the more fragrant and glutinous it became.
"It tastes pretty good." Kangxi only ate one piece and asked Liang Jiugong to put it away, "This is served when the porridge is served at night." ”
Liang Jiugong knew that the emperor was satisfied with this snack, and after putting away the box, he said, "Sibeile is still waiting outside." ”
Kangxi nodded: "Call him in." ”
In the Wuying Palace, several elder brothers have arrived. The king and the crown prince sat at both ends, and the rest of the brothers were scattered in the hall. Only the eighth master remained outside the hall, and a bunch of people gathered around him.
The third master saw it in his eyes, sour in his heart, and kept a sneer on his face, squinting at the eighth master outside the hall.
The ninth master, the tenth master, and the fourteenth were hiding in the distance, and the ninth master raised his chin and pointed at the third master, and whispered: "I see that the third brother is about to become squinted." ”
The tenth master was more kind, and the fourteenth laughed directly.
The third master glanced at them: "Fourteen, what is there to tell my brother about Coke." ”
Fourteen hurriedly waved his hand and said, "It's okay, third brother, I'm just itchy on my body." ”
This kind of laipi talk makes the third master unable to accept it, and the fourteenth always relies on his young age to not give him face as the third brother, and he cares that he is wrong.
"I don't know where the fourth child went, no one cares." The third master said this for a long time.
The fifth and seventh masters on the side did not answer. After the third master finished speaking, he seemed to remember, swept around and stretched his neck outside the hall, and said strangely: "It's strange, why hasn't the fourth child come at this hour?" ”
Everyone else actually found out, but no one said it. The fifth master and the seventh master are also confused, the fourth brother's temper will not be late, and when he came, he saw the car on the fourth brother's house at the palace gate.
The prince smiled slightly, even the king of Zhijun also knew it in his heart. Their ears and eyes are more nimble in the affairs of the palace, and they know that their good fourth brother has gone to the emperor's side in the morning.
The two of them were silent, and the third master shouted two sentences and no one answered, and he also shut up. When the eighth master finally sent away all the people who surrounded him, and entered the hall without even saying daoqian, the first few brothers didn't speak, or the ninth master answered: "It's okay, starling, you're not late, haven't you seen that the fourth brother hasn't come yet?" ”
The eighth master was stunned, and he swept around the hall twice but didn't see the figure of the fourth master, so he believed the words of the ninth master. Before he could ask, a whip rang out outside.
Everyone hurriedly returned to their positions and stood up, and the eighth master quietly asked the thirteenth: "Where is the fourth brother?" ”
Thirteen shook his head, bowed his head and stopped talking.
After the whip, the emperor arrived, and everyone knelt down to greet him.
Only then did a figure hurriedly come up from behind, passing the sixteenth, fifteenth, fourteenth, thirteenth, and others. Called kneeling well, the ninth and eighth masters only felt a person passing by, and when they looked up, they could only see the back.
The eighth master watched the man kneel in front of the fifth brother.
Before he could react, the emperor in front of him shouted. After a group of brothers got up, they all stared at the fourth master twice, and the third master next to the fourth master lowered his voice and said, "Okay, you old fourth ......"
The fourth master was calm as if nothing had happened, and he didn't react to the third master's words.
Next, after the emperor toasted, the prince toasted the ministers from table to table for the emperor. This toasting stick has been from the prince to the king of Zhijun, and the eighth master has also had it once. This time, everyone looked at the fourth master and thought that it must be him this year.
As a result, the emperor beckoned to the thirteenth and fourteenth who were sitting behind, and said with a smile: "You two come out and toast you uncles and uncles on my behalf." ”
Thirteen and Fourteen immediately got up and left their seats, and the little eunuch followed them with flasks and glasses.
Kangxi smiled: "You are not allowed to bully them when they are young, all of them must be drunk cleanly!" ”
There was laughter at the table, and Oro Dai patted his chest and said, "Long live don't worry!" I can drink it all if I give it to a jar! With him in his place, a group of people began to say that they were massive, and some people made fun of thirteen and fourteen, calling their brothers to help if they were young and couldn't drink.
Fourteen rushed ahead of thirteen and said, "It's too underestimated! Brother Thirteen get out of the way, I'll drink with them! ”
The other brothers at the table all saw the appearance of the fourteenth hero, and the third master said to the fourth master: "Look at your brother like this, he will bully the thirteenth." You weren't there just now, but no one could control him. ”
The third master wanted to ask the fourth master to teach the fourteenth a lesson, but the fourth master was not fooled at all, and ate the dishes by himself and said: "The fourteenth is old, how can you still be managed?" The third brother can't get used to it, so the third brother goes. ”
The third master cut his voice, turned his head and asked him in a low voice, "You went to Dongnuan Pavilion just now?" Do you have something to tell the emperor about in the household department? ”
The fourth master is in charge of the affairs of the household department, and the emperor has not yet made a clear decree, although everyone knows it. But the fourth master took that the emperor did not make a clear decree, and asked him: "What did the third brother say?" How will I know about the household department? ”
"Fourth, you are not kind, and you haven't said a word of truth in front of your brother." The third master said.
The fourth master sighed, put down his chopsticks and said, "If I say it, you must not believe it, third brother." ”
"You say." The third master also put down his wine glass and listened carefully.
"I'm sending a snack to the emperor...... "The fourth master didn't finish speaking, the third master didn't listen, picked up the chopsticks and ate the vegetables: "Cut!" If you don't want to say it, don't say it. What's the matter with coaxing your third brother? Even if you want to coax, make up something credible. ”
The fourth master didn't argue: "My fault, my fault." "Toast to the third master," the third brother is not angry for the New Year. ”
asked the third master to drink a toast, but he still held his breath.
When everyone sent New Year's gifts, it was the turn of the fourth master, and he actually gave two bags of peanuts and sweet potatoes that he had planted himself.
The brothers below all put down their chopsticks in unison, and listened to the fourth master still confessing there: "...... Originally, I planted soybeans, but I didn't harvest much, so I made some tofu and let the children eat it......"
The prince held his cup and couldn't help but want to laugh.
Kangxi also thought it was interesting, the children below were filial piety and made all their treasures, but no one had ever used the fourth child's hand. He stopped drinking wine, nor did he eat food, nor did he speak to anyone. When the other people below saw the emperor like this, they all listened attentively to the fourth master talking about his farming.
The fourth master is not finished talking about it!
“…… The joy of the countryside is better than wine-colored singing and dancing...... "The third master really wants to smack him in the face!"
“…… Honghui and his sons also worked with their sons to remove insects, turn over the soil and insects, water and fertilize, and their grinding hands were all soaked, all of them were sunburned as if they were rolling in an ink pool...... "This is to show that he has many sons, the eighth master said in his heart, and laughed with everyone at the table."
How cute the children are, how hateful the fourth child is!
The fourth master quickly concluded: "Erchen and the children only cultivated two acres of land, and only collected a few bags of what they planted, many of which were gnawed by insects, and the harvest was not good." ”
Kangxi smiled. Everyone laughed together.
"Take advantage of this festival to serve Huang Ama and taste the taste." The fourth master is very embarrassed, he is not very good at planting, and he harvests too little, which is really embarrassing.
A group of brothers gritted their teeth at the sight.
Kangxi stroked his palm, asked someone to present it on the spot, opened the cloth bag and saw that the peanuts inside were all round and fat.
"It's really a good thing, Yinzhen, you planted this land well, and I will plant it next year, I want to eat it next year!" Kangxi ordered to go down, and Liang Jiugong immediately took down these bags of sweet potatoes and peanuts and asked the imperial dining room to make them.
After a while, the banquet ate saltwater peanuts and sweet potato balls grown by the fourth master.
The emperor is so supportive, what else do the people below not understand? Eating saltwater peanuts and sweet potato balls are sweeter than eating dragon liver and phoenix gall, and they all come up to praise the fourth master.
So, the third master looked at a bunch of people around the eighth master and a bunch of people around the fourth master, there were only a few people around him, and they were all his own relatives, and his nose was crooked.
When the eighth master went to toast Baotai, Oro Dai and others, he glanced at the fourth master from time to time.
The fourth brother is really different.
Halfway through the banquet, the emperor withdrew and went to rest. Everyone at the table also left the table one after another.
The fourth master only went to the prince with a wine glass at this time, and the two touched three glasses and drank them all. There was also a plate of saltwater peanuts and a plate of sweet potato balls on the prince's table, but they didn't move much.
The prince got up and said, "Fourth, go out alone to sober up, you can do it yourself." ”
The fourth master said: "Brother Congratulations to His Royal Highness." ”
He returned to his seat, and the third master snorted coldly when he saw him coming over and got up to avoid it, and the fifth and seventh masters went out to facilitate their absence.
Thirteen came over with a wine jug to toast at this time, he poured three glasses, and said, "The fourth brother drank too much just now, just drink one glass, and the younger brother will be fine if he drinks more." ”
The fourth master said: "Then I won't be polite to the thirteenth master." After drinking, he asked someone to add a seat to his side.
Thirteen sat down and thanked the fourth master for helping him with the affairs of the thirteenth princess, and his eyes turned red as he spoke.
"All my life I remember the benefits that my fourth brother treated me. You can't forget anywhere. Thirteen sighed. It's not the fourth brother, not to mention whether the dowry of the thirteenth princess can be prepared so well, and he can't have the opportunity to see the thirteenth princess's forehead a few more times.
"You and my brother, you don't have to say such nonsense." The fourth master said warmly and touched a glass with him.
"When the fourth brother says this, the younger brother is welcome." Thirteen said embarrassedly, "Actually, my brother has something to ask my brother." ”
The fourth master looked at him encouragingly. He talked to Dai Duo about it, no matter how well the household affairs are done this time, it is a big event, and there are those who want to get a piece of the pie, and naturally there are those who are willing to help. Dai Duo said: "The master might as well take this opportunity to take a look at what available talents are available." ”
Thirteen said: "My brother even has a son now, I really don't want to be idle all day, I want to ask my fourth brother to help my brother find an errand, it doesn't matter what, just do chores and run errands." ”
"Don't even pick on chores or errands?" The fourth master asked deliberately.
Thirteen Zhengse said: "There is a fourth brother looking at his younger brother, even if it is a chorre job, my younger brother is willing." ”
The fourth master was satisfied, nodded and smiled: "Since this is the case, then you can come to me after the New Year." I happened to have an errand there, so I sent someone to work. If you're not tired, come here. ”
Where will Thirteen be disgusted? Without the fourth master, he is nothing now. So after the thirteenth princess got married, of course he had to find another thing to continue to follow the fourth master.
After saying this, he couldn't keep talking at the table, and Thirteen retired.
The fourth master pulled thirteen, a helper was not enough, swept over a circle of people on the table, stared at fourteen, and the thirteenth of his heart came over, and asked Fourteen to come over and mix in the foot, otherwise he was afraid that he would complain about not promoting his brother in the future.
It's just that he watched it all night, but he didn't find a chance to talk to Fourteen, and saw him wandering around, sticking into the crowd. When the emperor came back, he offered a martial arts competition in front of the palace, and he had to compare with the king of Zhijun, which made the fourth master so angry that he couldn't even speak.
Back in the house, Li Wei shrank to the bed after washing and changing her clothes. It's not snowing now, but it's still cold to the bone. If you don't get into the quilt quickly after soaking your feet, your feet will freeze cold for a while.
When the fourth master also entered the quilt, she hurriedly put her feet into his quilt to warm up.
The fourth master called a pair of cold feet and was startled, and when he reacted, he lifted the quilt and said, "Come in." ”
She happily rolled in, hugged him and sighed comfortably: "It's so warm on the master's body!" ”
The fourth master smiled, tucked the corners of the quilt, touched her fingers in the quilt, the tentacles were also cold, and sighed: "Ask Doctor Bai to prescribe a prescription for you to make up for it, your hands and feet are so cold, this is a lack of blood." ”
He grabbed her finger and put it to his mouth and pasted it, "I know how to make up for my body with beef stew, why don't I know how to make up for myself?" ”
She got into his arms, and her cold feet clumped up and stepped on his thighs, "Yes, it's good if you don't make it up." As he spoke, he deliberately stepped on the ball between him, and stepped on the hard bird as he stepped on it.
She was so happy that she couldn't cry or laugh when she called the fourth master. Clamp her feet in the quilt and don't tell her to mess around anymore.
Knowing that he would enter the palace tomorrow morning, he couldn't do anything, and he deliberately grinded people.
"It's really grinding." He kissed her on the nose, and suddenly a sentence came out: "There is oil." ”
Li Wei: =mouth=
She hurriedly reached out and touched it, and suddenly remembered that something was wrong, and blushed: "Impossible!" I've just washed my face! ”
Yuyan, who was keeping vigil in the outhouse, suddenly heard the laughter of the fourth master in the inner room. l3l4
