Fan Yu has heard of bringing imperial weapons, which is the elite of the elite in the palace, that is, the legendary imperial guard with a knife.

"Congratulations to Brother Zhan for getting what he wanted, and he can get this position, and he can't be trusted by the government." Fan Yu was really happy for Zhan Zhao, and couldn't help but congratulate him: "It must be the official family who understands Brother Zhan's personality, otherwise this position would not have fallen to Brother Zhan." ”

"Who said no, I can get this position, and it is also the plan of the prefect Bao. As early as the beginning of my defection to the prefect of Bao, the four people of the dynasty, Ma Han, Zhang Long, and Zhao Hu all became his subordinates, and I was the only one who did not arrange it. It turned out that he thought that I was strong in martial arts, and I was a little condescending to work in Kaifeng Mansion. So I sent someone to Changzhou, transferred my household registration, and then looked for an opportunity to recommend. After returning to Beijing this time, the official family wanted to perform martial arts in Yaowu Tower, and the prefect Bao recommended me to go up. Zhan Zhao couldn't help but sigh: "If I hadn't been transferred to the household registration to prove my innocence, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to participate in the Yaowulou martial arts, and the official family would not have given me the job of bringing imperial equipment." ”

When Fan Yu heard this, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Brother Zhan just can't do this imperial weapon, and he can also be recommended to the forbidden army." The official family must have asked Brother Zhan some words, thinking that Brother Zhan answered with a very sacred heart, otherwise he would not have given you such an important position just because of your family background. ”

Zhan Zhao laughed and said: "Little Brother Fan, your guess is right, the official family did ask me why I want to participate in the Yaowulou martial arts exercise." Guess how I answered? ”

"Brother Zhan may be saying that if you learn literature and martial arts, you can sell the goods to the emperor's family? Either you are loyal to the king and serve your family and country, nothing more. Fan Yu thought about it and guessed.

"None of them are right." Zhan Zhao smiled proudly: "What you said, many people said so, but it is not a lie, it is very true. But I'm different, because I've heard Brother Fan say that you're a great man. So, I told the official family that I had taught myself martial arts and traveled all over the world. is good and chivalrous, and likes to manage unfair things. But then I realized, what if I only learned from the rangers of the former Tang Dynasty? The so-called chivalrous man is for the country, the people and the official. If you have no ambition, you will eventually be a brave and ruthless person. ”

Fan Yu was stunned, his eldest brother Zhan was not stupid, he raised his thumb and said: "Brother Zhan's words are not wrong, that's exactly the case." ”

"When the official family heard my words, they couldn't help but be happy, and gave me the job of carrying imperial equipment on the spot." Zhan Zhao said, then stood up, arched his hand at Fan Yu and said, "Speaking of which, in addition to Governor Bao, I also want to thank you, Junior Brother Fan." If you hadn't taught me this truth, I'm afraid I'm still an ignorant martial artist now. Even if there is an opportunity to perform martial arts in Yaowu Tower, I am afraid that I will not be able to let the official family get into the eyes. ”

Fan Yu also hurriedly got up and saluted: "Brother Zhan, don't be polite, you and I met at the beginning, and thanks to you, I got out of the predicament." Otherwise, I wouldn't be where I am today. Brother Zhan and I are just fulfilling each other. Between brothers, it doesn't have to be like this. ”

After the two talked, they heard Zhanzhao's stomach gurgling.

"Little Brother Fan, I was happy to be there this day, and I wanted to tell you the good news, so I hurriedly ran back, but I forgot that I hadn't eaten yet. If I had known this, I should have brought some wine and meat back so that I wouldn't go hungry. Zhan Zhao shook his head and smiled bitterly.

Fan Yu heard Zhanzhao say this, and felt that he was also hungry. He came back from duty today, but he didn't have time to eat.

"How can you make Brother Zhan hungry at home." Fan Yu touched his stomach and said: "Anyway, I'm also a little hungry, since Brother Zhan was appointed by the official family to bring imperial equipment today, then I will also cook myself and cook some food for Brother Zhan." ”

Zhan Zhao laughed, "Little Brother Fan, your craftsmanship is excellent, I will have a good mouth again today." ”

Fan Yu got up with a smile and went to change into civilian clothes and came out, "Brother Zhan, wait a minute, I made something you haven't eaten today." ”

In fact, Fan Yu came back after eating out mostly in the past few days, but he came back early today, but he didn't eat outside. There are not many people in the house, only two sisters, Chen Fang and Chen Yuan, and Wang Xiaoding. These three people cook with average skills, and Fan Yu basically doesn't eat it. If you want him to be a foodie, how can you eat just to fill your stomach?

Even if Zhan Zhao doesn't say it, Fan Yu also has to cook and eat by himself.

Zhan Zhao couldn't sit still, waved his hand and said, "I'll also go to see you cook, it's okay to ask for a helper." ”

When the two arrived in the kitchen, Fan Yu put some flour into the porcelain basin, added salt and water and whipped it into a flocculent.

Although Zhanzhao wanted to help, Fan Yu was used to cooking by himself, and he was very nimble, so there was no chance for Zhanzhao to intervene.

He took another piece of salted meat, which was fat and thin, and chopped it into minced meat with a knife and prepared it. Fan Yu went to look at the dough in the basin and saw that the moisture had penetrated into the surface of the dough, so he began to knead the dough. It's just that after kneading thirty or fifty times, the dough has been kneaded evenly.

Fan Yu took out the dough, put it on top of the dough table, took a rolling pin, and rolled the dough into a one-minute thick oval dough.

When he arrived, he covered the bread with a damp cloth and let it wake first.

"Little Brother Fan, are you going to make cakes for me?" Zhan Zhao saw Fan Yu make a big dough cake and couldn't help but ask curiously.

Fan Yu laughed and said: "This is such fresh food, I Baozhan big brother, you haven't eaten it." ”

"What the hell is eating?" Zhan Zhao said a little strangely.

"Let's not talk about it now, Brother Zhan can watch it first. It won't take long to find out. Fan Yu looked at Zhanzhao and asked, so he deliberately sold Guan Zidao.

Zhan Zhao had no choice but to say: "Okay, I'll just wait to eat, but it's just hard for Little Brother Fan." Let you, the marquis, cook for me personally, I have a lot of face. ”

"What is the Hou Ye or not the Hou Ye, it's just a title picked up." Fan Yu has never been proud of himself because he is a Hou Ye.

He was talking to Zhanzhao in his mouth, but he didn't stop in his hands. In a moment, the garlic has been peeled and chopped into a small half bowl of garlic foam.

"Wang Xiaoding, go get some water, I'll be useful." Fan Yu was busy in his hands, and shouted without raising his head.

Wang Xiaoding had been called and was about to light the fire, and when he heard Fan Yu's words, he was about to go out.

Zhan Zhao hurriedly said: "I'll go, there is a pond in the house, but I don't know how much Junior Brother Fan will use." ”

"One plant is enough." Fan Yu nodded.

Soon Zhanzhao took the water knotweed and put it aside, "Do you want to eat spicy today?" ”

"Exactly." Fan Yu agreed, then took another handful of ready-made spinach, washed it and cut it into sections.

This thing was used to make koji in later generations. However, in ancient times, knotweed was used to increase the spiciness. Dogwood is considered a medicinal herb and is rarely added to food. Moreover, the spiciness of the water knotweed is much higher than that of the dogwood, and sometimes the juice of the water knotweed falls on the skin, which will make people swell and pain. This level of spiciness is not much worse than that of chili peppers in later generations.

Zhan Zhao watched it for a long time, but he didn't know what Fan Yu was going to do, this was meat, water knotweed and spinach, which made him a little confused.
