Chapter 80: Steamed Buns with Pearls and Mutton
The sunrise is not just the life of a farmer. In this day and age, this is basically the case for people from all walks of life.
Outside the Tang Workshop construction site, in the small wooden house, those laborers also slept soundly at this time, and today the prince asked people to send winter clothes and quilts, and the original broken quilts could finally be changed.
These laborers were reluctant to throw away the old ones, so they chose some decent ones to block the walls, so that the cold wind outside could block them.
In the middle of the night, it snowed, and for some reason, the falling snow, which was originally inaudible, made Chen Fang get up from the bed.
I dreamed of snow just now, but I didn't expect it to be true.
Chen Fang sat up, but he couldn't sleep anymore at this time, put on his Datang version of the down jacket, Chen Fang walked out of the dormitory where he lived, and it was snowing very much outside.
The snow that was as soft as duck down had accumulated a thin layer on the ground. It was a little cold outside, but Chen Fang sat down on the threshold.
Unconsciously, a few pieces of flying snow fell on Chen Fang's clothes, which were melted by the heat evaporating from the house, turning into a few small droplets.
When it snows, the workers at the construction site will work harder.
Chen Fang sighed, looking at some hazy lights in the distance at this time, thinking about the charcoal fire earth dragons under the palaces everywhere.
Sure enough, Zhumen's wine and meat stink, and there are frozen bones on the road!
Chen Fang sighed and went back to his residence, it was cold outside!
At this time, after going back, I couldn't sleep, the Tang workshop has been built, according to the current progress, the workshop will probably start in March and April next year.
The question of how the workshop will operate and where to recruit workers will be at that time is a question.
From the people, from the palace, from the army, or from ...
Meng Fei, Yeting Palace, the family of the eunuch and the guilty minister.
Chen Fang suddenly thought of Meng Fei at this time, thinking of her identity, and at this time, an idea gradually popped up in his mind, bold and unrealistic.
In the second half of the night, after thinking for a long time, Chen Fang fell asleep again when the rooster crowed.
The morning sun in the east is slightly dewed, the snow has accumulated all over the palace outside, and in the era when there is no alarm clock, it is all up to your biological clock to wake up.
Chen Fang stretched his waist and went through the things he thought about last night in his mind, and felt that it was feasible.
After dressing, I picked up the oil-paper umbrella in the corner, a blooming peach blossom opened overhead, and the snow fell on the umbrella surface of the oil-paper umbrella, making a slight sound.
Before he arrived at the Shang Shi Bureau, Chen Fang was stopped by someone, but he saw the attacker smiling at him.
It can't be Li Hong looking for him again, right? What's the matter this time, is it possible to ask for another hundred rock sugar gourds.
When the attacker came, he was also holding an oil-paper umbrella, but the umbrella was covered with a few bamboos, thinking that it was because Li Hong liked bamboo. The last time I went to the East Palace, Chen Fang saw that there were many bamboo forests in the East Palace.
"Attacker, is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince looking for me?"
"There is something to do, Originally, His Highness was going to come in person, but it snowed last night, and I occasionally felt cold, so I could only let the attacker come to find the adult!"
"The prince is sick?"
"Your Highness has always been not in good health, and when the weather changes abruptly, he always feels slightly ill!"
After listening to the attacker's words, Chen Fang realized that Li Hong was really frail, which was consistent with the original historical records. Like his father, Emperor Li Zhi, he was frail and sickly.
"Did you call the Imperial Doctor?"
"Niangniang has already ordered someone from the Imperial Medical Department to go and see it!"
"Mutton warms the stomach, let His Highness eat more mutton in winter!"
"It's just that the East Palace is too bad, and it's not as delicious as the food bureau!"
After the attacker finished speaking, he sighed.
It seems that Li Hong has a heart for this palace maid, and it is estimated that she will open a small stove for her on weekdays, and if Li Hong can't eat, he will give her what to eat.
Otherwise, the attackers would not say that the East Palace was too bad, and it was not as delicious as the food bureau.
"I'll ask the Shang Food Bureau to make some things in a while, and I'll trouble the attacking girl to bring it back to the East Palace!"
When the attacker heard this, some smiles appeared on his originally sad face. This palace maid is indeed quite beautiful, and it is no wonder that Li Hong likes it.
"This is not troublesome, then I will wait in the Shangshi Bureau. It's just that there will be Master Lao again! ”
"Taking care of the nobles in the palace is my job!"
"I almost forgot that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince specially asked me to bring it to my lord!"
At this time, the attacker hurriedly took a small bag, a small bag made of good silk, and handed it to Chen Fang.
Chen Fang took it, it was very light, not a small gold ingot, Chen Fang was a little disappointed.
"Your Highness said that this time it was thanks to your lordship!"
"What do you mean?"
"Yesterday, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince went down to greet the queen, and His Royal Highness was very happy when he came back, and he kept saying this, although he was sick on the bed this morning, he still urged people to give this thing to the adults!"
Chen Fang already understood that he used the name of the prince to send warmth to the workers at the construction site, and Wu Meiniang praised the prince, so there was this at this time.
What was in this silk bag, Chen Fang was a little itchy. The prince made a special trip to ask the raider to bring it to himself, it won't be something worthless!
"Why don't you open it and take a look?"
Chen Fang untied the tie, and there were more than a dozen round beads lying in the bag, which turned out to be pearls.
In this day and age, this is definitely a good thing, these pearls are not ordinary at first glance, each one is extremely round, the size of a little finger.
This is according to the market price of Datang, which is definitely much more valuable than Xiaojin Yuan.
Chen Fang's disappointment just now is long gone at this time, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is frank, and this reward is bright.
"I also trouble attacking people, thank you for the reward for me, Your Highness!"
People are in good spirits at happy events, and the spring breeze is proud. At this time, holding the silk bag into his arms, Chen Fang felt that he was walking briskly.
The attacker followed Chen Fang to the Shangshi Bureau, and the attacker was going to wait outside, but Chen Fang gave Yinye a look, and Yinye pulled the attacker into the Shangshi Bureau.
Everything in this Shangshi Bureau is Chen Fang's decision, whether he can enter or not is just a matter of Chen Fang's words.
It's still snowing outside, so how can you let the attackers who have brought you rewards blow a cold wind outside!
"Silver leaf, has the mutton soup you explained last night been boiled?"
"My lord, it's all done as you commanded! The mutton has also been cut, and the fat and lean are all made according to the instructions of the adults. We also have prepared bread for adults! ”
At this time, Chen Fang asked people to prepare some new fans made by the Shang Food Bureau, which also has a name on the peninsula, that is, Tang noodles, which shows its origin.
The vermicelli of Shang Shi Bureau is made with mung beans and is of excellent quality.
Chen Fang also asked people to prepare some dried daylily, minced green onions, sweet garlic, and a small plate of chili sauce, which was also prepared in advance by Chen Fang.
At this time, the broth in the pot is still boiling, and the diced buns are poured with broth, to which blanched vermicelli and dried cauliflower are added, and thin chopped green onions are sprinkled in the soup with clear oil.
A fragrance wafted away at this time, gradually becoming stronger, and people couldn't help but smell it a few more times.
This is an authentic Shaanxi delicacy, mutton steamed buns, but this era has not been, Chen Fang brought it to Taiji Palace, to Chang'an.
