Chapter 420: Roasted Food
Su Shanyun heard Yan Jinxuan say yesterday that Queen Kuang came out to relax because she was in a bad mood.
"See if there's anything you can do to make her happy." Yan Jinxuan instructed.
Su Shanyun thought about it seriously.
She knew that the queen's melancholy was related to the demotion of the second prince, but she also knew that she would never talk to her about these sensitive topics. She doesn't know much about the things in the palace and the queen/palace, and those things are equally sensitive, so she can't touch this kind of topic. Then there is only something else to divert the queen's attention.
The valley is large, but the road is flat, so it doesn't take you a few hours to walk and see, so what should you do with the rest of the time? Su Shanyun thought as she walked.
The most attractive thing about this place is its pristine ecology, which should also be a new point for the queen who has lived in the palace for a long time, so let's find a way from this direction.
Su Shanyun quickly thought of a way.
She asked Queen Kuang, "Have you ever eaten baked sweet potatoes?" ”
"Roasted sweet potatoes? Haven't eaten it. Empress Kuang shook her head.
"There is a large area of sweet potatoes planted in the small farm of the Minnu's family, and now is the time to eat them, how about the Minnu go and bake a few for you to taste?"
"Where to bake?" Empress Kuang came to be interested.
"Just roast on the ground. Eat while grilling, hot and fragrant. Su Shanyun replied.
Actually, she hasn't baked it before, but I've heard others talk about it.
She thought it was interesting to bake sweet potatoes in the ground in the cold.
It just so happened that the queen hadn't tried it either, so Su Shanyun felt that this thing was more fresh and fun.
"When you say that, my saliva is about to come out. Let's go, let's stop looking at the scenery and go back to the field to roast sweet potatoes. Empress Kuang said excitedly.
So the group walked back.
When he arrived at the sweet potato field of the small farm, Su Shanyun asked his subordinates to dig a pit in the field and asked them to pick up some wood.
Liu Zhitao and Yan Jinxuan also ran over when they learned about it.
Yan Jinxuan is also the first time to see other people roasting sweet potatoes, but she also feels fresh. Liu Zhitao was born in the countryside and has been doing this kind of thing since he was a child, so he hurriedly went into battle in person.
Yan Jinxuan asked people to come to the house and bring some small stools for everyone to sit on.
After the fire in the small fire pit was hot, Liu Zhitao put a few wooden sticks on the head of the pit, and then put the sweet potatoes on the wooden sticks.
"Are you going to wait until it's done?" Empress Kuang leaned closer and looked curiously.
"Mmmm, turn it over when it's cooked. When both sides are cooked, you can start eating. Liu Zhitao replied respectfully.
So a crowd gathered around the sweet potatoes on the fire pit to see.
Soon. The sweet potatoes have a fragrant aroma.
Liu Zhitao reached out and turned them over.
Yan Jinxuan remembered that Liu Zhitao could cook roast chicken, so he said: "There are still chicken and potatoes at home, so let's roast them and eat them." ”
Liu Zhitao hurriedly went back to the house to get it.
After a while, Liu Zhitao came with a bag of potatoes and a chicken plucked and seasoned.
Empress Kuang is excited now. Squat directly by the fire pit to see. And turn it over with your hands from time to time.
"I think we're ready for lunch today." Empress Kuang said.
She usually eats exquisite food. That's why it's very rare to see this kind of roasting.
"Okay, I'm just afraid you won't get used to it." Yan Jinxuan said with a smile.
"No, I'd love to try these things." Empress Kuang said with great interest.
Yan Jinxuan asked Liu Zhitao to slaughter another chicken. He also instructed the kitchen to cook a pot of mushroom and corn rib soup and stir-fry two plates of vegetables.
After two quarters of an hour, the chicken also gives off a rich aroma.
"The chicken skin is crispy and delicious!" Liu Zhitao said while flipping the chicken.
Everyone couldn't help but swallow a few mouthfuls of saliva when they looked at the steaming, golden roast chicken.
Yan Jinxuan gently took Su Shanyun's hand and said in her ear: "You are really good, you thought of such a method, I have never seen the queen smile so happily." ”
"That's good, I want her to be happy, too." Su Shanyun said.
Yan Jinxuan took advantage of the situation and bit her earlobe.
Su Shanyun's face turned red.
For some reason, as soon as she came into contact with his body, she longed to be closer to him, but there were people next to her at this time, so she restrained herself.
He's also restrained.
The two of them looked at the food and Queen Kuang again.
Seeing that the food was almost baked, Yan Jinxuan instructed his subordinates to bring the round table and stools for eating.
They're going to have lunch in the sweet potato field today.
Sweet potatoes in winter have a high sugar content, so the juice/liquid flows straight out after roasting, and when you pick it up, it feels soft and soft, and you can eat it when you pull it open, and the taste is very sweet.
Cooked potatoes are powdery and have a characteristic aroma.
The most amazing thing is the roast chicken, the skin is crispy on the outside, and the meat on the inside is very tender, and the meat is full of flavor when you bite into it, and it is wonderful to eat with hot soup and vegetables.
After the meal, Queen Kuang stroked her full belly and said, "This is the most enjoyable meal I have eaten in recent years!" ”
Yan Jinxuan and Su Shanyun immediately laughed.
"If you like it, just eat it." Su Shanyun said busily.
"Mmmm, you can't eat this taste in the palace." Empress Kuang said.
"How about Weichen ask someone to bake some more for you to bring back?" Yan Jinxuan asked with a smile.
"Done!" Empress Kuang nodded.
Su Shanyun asked people to bring clean water to wash Queen Kuang's hands.
When she washed her hands, Su Shanyun asked, "Do you want to take a lunch break?" ”
"Yes, if you don't take a lunch break, you will lose your energy throughout the afternoon and evening."
Su Shanyun asked Lu He to make the bed.
Queen Kuang sat for a while and then got up and went back to the room, and Su Shanyun hurriedly accompanied her.
When she arrived at the room, Su Shanyun carefully waited for her to sleep.
Empress Kuang looked at Su Shanyun's gentle side face and said, "Shanyun, you live in happiness, I can see it in your eyes." ”
Su Shanyun nodded and said, "Well, since marrying the second master, the folk girl has been living in happiness." ”
"That's great! My heart is very happy to see you like this. Empress Kuang said.
She has read countless people, but she has never seen a couple with such love and harmony as theirs.
Su Shanyun hurriedly thanked him, and thought that the second master was going to clean up the Yan Party next, and he was always a little worried, so he said: "There is only one thing that the people's daughter is more concerned about now." ”
"Which one?"
"The safety of the second master."
When Empress Kuang heard this, she took Su Shanyun's hand and said, "The second master is a battle-hardened person, he will be fine." ”
"I hope so."
"Although this rectification activity is very dangerous, the emperor will send someone to protect him, and the third prince will also help him secretly, and there are many ministers in the court who are also friends of the second master, and they will definitely not stand idly by, so you don't have to worry too much."
Su Shanyun nodded.
"I heard that the lottery of Bailing Temple is very spiritual, if you are really worried, you might as well go there and ask for a lottery for him."
Su Shanyun was refreshed after hearing this, and hurriedly asked, "Where is the Bailing Temple?" ”
"In the town of the eldest son."
The town of Eldest Son is located in the other direction, on the outskirts, about sixty miles away.
Although the journey was a bit far, Su Shanyun still decided to take some time to go. (To be continued.) )
PS: Dear friends, the first shift is coming, and the second shift is about 7 o'clock.
