Chapter 19: Mooncakes

Qingluo looked at the young lady of her own family, talking here, but she was panicked, the young lady's dowry was collected by her, and the valuable things were all in it, and the young lady had never taken it out.

Li Xiaoyu stood up very neatly, and then said very sincerely, "I'm afraid this painting wasn't found by Miss Feng, right?" If my guess is correct, this painting should have been obtained by my husband for a lot of money, right? I married into the Ande Palace, my husband and I are a family, and I naturally have a share of the gifts he paid for! ”

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Feng Jin looked embarrassed. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Okay, so if I'm talking nonsense, where did this painting come from? In front of His Majesty today, don't you deceive the king? Li Xiaoyu said gently, but the word "bullying" made Feng Jin feel a chill. And Feng Liangbi was even more anxious, for fear that if her daughter didn't say a good word, she would be caught by Li Xiaoyu and be guilty of bullying the king.

"I didn't expect this Li Yu to have such a deep city, I just didn't admit it today, what can I do, what evidence can she have?" Feng Jin secretly said in her heart, her hands were also clenched together because of nervousness, and at this time, Feng Liangbi looked at it, but she secretly said in her heart that it was not good. His daughter is good at everything, but she is a little willful in this temperament, and it is estimated that this girl will not admit it nine times out of ten!

Just when Feng Jin was about to open his mouth, Feng Liangbi said with a smile: "This painting has indeed been seen in the Treasure Pavilion a few times ago, Jin'er, you can tell me if this is a gift prepared for you by King Ande?" ”

"Huh? Forehead..... It was prepared for me by the prince. Feng Jin never thought that her father Feng Liangbi would come out to expose her, but Feng Liangbi said it so openly, it didn't seem so embarrassing.

When the prime minister of the court said this, King Ande was naturally not a fool, and quickly stood up and said, "I really didn't say hello to Xiao Yu in advance about this matter, and I did buy the painting." ”

King Ande said so, and the people present only regarded King Ande as a lover, but Concubine Mei snorted coldly and said, "Yo, I really didn't expect that our Princess Ande is still a vinegar jar." Although it was a joke, the people present had some opinions about Li Xiaoyu.

"In the eyes of this mother, what her son does is right!" Although Li Xiaoyu was disgusted with Concubine Mei in his heart, he still lowered his head.

"The wife is so compatible, like a drum and a piano, for the husband and wife, you really shouldn't hide it in this matter, I'm curious about what kind of dim sum Princess Ander prepared." Li Xiaoyu really didn't expect that at this critical moment, King Kang would actually speak for her.

That Shen Daoquan was obviously not interested in the intrigue between women, as soon as he heard that King Kang said that Li Xiaoyu had prepared a snack, he was very curious, you must know that Shen Daoquan is very interested in eating.

In the early dynasties, Shen Daoquan accepted the congratulations of civil and military officials above the third grade in the Paiyun Palace, and then at noon he held a grand banquet, and the dishes used were loaded with gold and silver utensils and crystal agate, which was extremely luxurious.

Now at night, in this imperial garden is "appreciating the treasure and appreciating the moon and watching the lanterns", the pomp is even bigger in the early stage, the jade axe and the golden Yue, the treasure cover bead curtain surrounds the left and right, the ground is covered with a Libai carpet, it really seems to be in the Guanghan Moon Palace, as for the dim sum prepared by the imperial dining room in the palace, it is all the best, the chest of the dragon's wings, the nine of the osmanthus, the jade food above, the delicacies are prepared.

The dim sum that Li Xiaoyu can give the emperor can be compared to the craftsmanship of the master of the imperial dining room? Thinking of this, everyone present looked at Li Xiaoyu very curiously, only to see Li Xiaoyu wave his hand, and the subordinates brought by King Ande took the jade plate inlaid with Fu Lushou and brought in the moon cakes one by one

Li Xiaoyu's moon cakes are mainly Soviet-style moon cakes, because thinking that people in this era have not yet invented puff pastry, Li Xiaoyu is also to satisfy the novelty of this civil and military emperor. As for the group case on the moon cake, it is completely out of the carving of the dim sum master in the house, Li Xiaoyu did not make a mold, and the laurel patterns, auspicious three treasures, flowers, birds, fish and insects on it are all carved by hand. The Suzhou-style mooncakes I used to eat were just stamped, but the dim sum chef of this palace was able to make a micro-carving on this puff pastry, and it was baked without breaking, which really made her, a three-star chef, insightful.

"Xiao Yu, your dim sum looks very delicate, and the taste is also extremely sweet and delicious, I don't know what this dim sum is?" Shen Daoquan looked at the dim sum on the jade plate and asked.

"August 15 is called the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the people leave each other with moon cakes to take the meaning of reunion."

"Is this thing called a mooncake?" Shen Daoquan broke off a piece, stuffed it into his mouth, and then chewed it carefully, his eyes were slightly closed, his expression was extremely comfortable, and after a while, he stuffed a piece of moon cake into his mouth, and then shouted loudly, "It's delicious!" The crust is crunchy and the filling is full, so it's a masterpiece of dim sum! And this thing takes the meaning of reunion and happiness, the meaning is very good, Xiao Yu really has a heart! ”

The emperor said so, and the ministers naturally began to taste it one after another, so that the civil and military officials were well-known, and all the beautiful words they could think of were used.

The martial arts hall is just a strong saying that it is delicious, but the civil officials are different, they are good at literary words, and they praise it, the rhetoric is gorgeous, Li Xiaoyu feels sour when he listens to it.

Feng Jin looked at Li Xiaoyu, her mood could be imagined, but at this moment, even if she wanted to stand up and taunt Li Xiaoyu a few words, Feng Liangbi was a strong Feng Jin's eyes, and Feng Jin could only sit down and be anxious.

Li Xiaoyu watched those civil and military officials drink and praise under the honor of the saints, everyone enjoyed the moonlight together, they boarded the dragon boat, the imperial boat went forward, all kinds of delicacies were listed in front, around the hull, hung with silver ornaments, all kinds of palace lights, the eunuchs also set off fireworks on the shore of the lake in this imperial garden, played music, and countless river lamps were lit in the lake, and thousands of lights were streamed for a time, and the five colors were colorful.

Li Xiaoyu stood alone in the stern of the boat, and King Ande went to enjoy the moonlight with Feng Jin early, "How much national money does this Mid-Autumn Festival cost?" Isn't it said that there are countless victims now? ”

"That's true, in fact, in this way, let's just have a Mid-Autumn Festival!" Li Xiaoyu only saw a man holding the guqin standing at the stern of the boat with nothing to do, and said with his back to Li Xiaoyu with an extremely serious expression.

"It's really useless to say this, but everyone likes it, and there's no way to do it!" After Xiao Yu finished speaking, he looked extraordinarily distracted.

"Hmph, who doesn't like eating, drinking, and having fun?"
