Section 33 Entering the palace to offer gifts
After listening to Zhai Jian's explanation.
Wang Lin stood up: "It's a good calculation, it won't take too long to kidnap Li Xing, one month is enough." But, really don't you want to kill? ”
"It's not."
Wang Lin said: "Okay, Han Jiefu is domineering, but he can still give a few shares of the old man's face, and in a few days, the old man will go to him for you to make peace, I'm afraid this matter will be difficult to be good." ”
"Maharaja, what will happen?"
"I don't know, it depends on how much Han Jiefu can support the eldest son of this town Anhou."
Xie Shenfu said: "Why do you want to make peace, what does this matter have to do with us." ”
"What do you mean?"
"The two of us can go to the Han Mansion, but not to make peace, just ask about the marriage contract for Lu Yuanbo's Mansion, and get married. Isn't saying peace tantamount to setting yourself on fire? ”
Wang Lin suddenly realized: "Yes, yes, this should be done, choose a day, let's go to Han's house together." ”
Zhai Jian bowed to the end: "Thank you to the prince and the old man." ”
Wang Lin nodded, picked up the tea bowl, took a sip of tea, and strode away.
In Zhen'an Houfu, Han Si called Han Jiang a young gentleman, but this matter did not spread, and the Ji family naturally did not dare to talk nonsense. Therefore, the provinces involved in this matter are still speculating.
Let's talk about Han Jiang.
After he collected enough information from the palace, Han Jiang returned home. Sitting in the largest and most gorgeous courtyard of this mansion, the most spacious study, after writing a paperwork, began to toss vigorously.
Let them grind them with stones, and grind the frosting sugar finer than flour.
In particular, butter was prepared, as well as hundreds of eggs, and several cans of milk. These things that cost a little money are enough, and the cook requisitioned six, dozens of small workers, as well as several people with high martial arts skills in the guards, and several carpenters.
Holding a bamboo-woven egg net, these martial arts masters beat the milk by hand.
On the carpenter's side, five, one large, four small, and five were very beautiful, and the carved unlacquered wooden box was also made, and at the end of the afternoon, that is, at about half past four, Han Jiang came to the gate of the palace.
He didn't dare to rush directly into it.
Han Jiang can apply.
Apply to see the Queen Mother.
In addition, Han Jiang has been throwing money continuously in the past three days, and things have gone smoothly when he entered the palace.
What happened in Zhen'an Houfu has already spread throughout the aristocratic circle, and in a few days, it will become the topic of teahouse. Naturally, the palace also knew.
When the Empress Dowager Cilie heard that Han Jiang was coming again, it was estimated that the child was here to deliver snacks again, and the Empress Dowager Cilie said in her heart that the child had been asking around the palace for three days, so today is the time to see the results. She was interested in hearing what Han Jiang was thinking. Therefore, immediately ordered Han Jiang to come in.
The five palace maids were in charge of carefully holding one large, four small, and five carved boxes, and Han Jiang entered, according to the etiquette of the new school, although it was not standard, but it was barely possible.
The Empress Dowager Cilie asked, "Let the palace see what kind of ceremony it is." ”
"Yes."
Han Jiang stepped forward with the largest box, and then the Queen Mother's full-time palace maid took it, and the other two palace maids opened the lid very carefully.
Inside the box, there is a phoenix.
To be precise, the level of the pastry chefs in Da Song is super high, they may not be able to decorate the flowers, but they will use a knife to repair the cake, and then repair the outer layer of foaming cream, and they can also color.
"Dim sum?"
"Yes, fluffy and delicious."
"Taste it."
The Empress Dowager Cilie opened her mouth to say that she would taste it, but the palace maid didn't know how to cut the knife, you said that it was better to cut it from the crested head or from the phoenix tail, which would be disrespectful.
It was the Empress Dowager Cilie who reached out and put the knife on the phoenix.
Cakes first appeared in the thirteenth century.
This kind of ultra-fluffy cake with eggs is definitely a later process, which requires the egg whites to be separated from the egg yolks, beaten with powdered sugar until foamy, then mixed with egg yolks, and baked over a fire.
Da Song already has an oven, just control the temperature and cut off the outer layer.
A piece of cake is in the mouth, and the product is melted and the sweetness is appropriate.
The Empress Dowager Cilie motioned to give herself another piece.
An eighty-year-old lady, her teeth must be bad, and she can't bite something too hard, and she likes this cake very much.
Empress Dowager Cilie asked, "Brother Jiang'er, what is the rest?" ”
"My grandson was afraid that I didn't understand the rules of the palace, so I prepared four more small ones, and if my aunt and grandmother could use them, my grandson would not be busy in vain."
"There is a heart, there is a heart."
The Empress Dowager Cilie motioned for Han Jiang to sit down, and then asked, "What did you do when you entered the palace?" ”
"There is one thing that I dare not ask my father, let alone ask others. The grandson was afraid that his father would be criticized, but the grandson thought that there was nothing wrong with this. ”
Han Jiang presented what he had written, and a palace maid took it to the Empress Dowager Cilie and began to read it.
What Han Jiang wrote was that he voluntarily gave up all the shade supplements in Zhen'an Houfu, as well as all the property in Zhen'an Houfu, and only kept the part of the dowry left by his mother. Everything belongs to Zhen'an Hou's young son, who is not yet a year old, and he will protect him with all his heart until he grows up to the crown.
The Empress Dowager Cilie closed her eyes and listened all the time, and after listening, she asked, "Brother Jiang'er, have you thought about the consequences?" ”
"I thought about it, without the shade, I could go to school and take exams. Since I am the son of the Han family, I can't touch everything in the Li family, so it doesn't belong to me. I'm afraid, I'm afraid that this matter will make people unrighteous to my father, because such a big thing has happened in the Marquis's Mansion, and it is inevitable that someone will say something unfavorable to my father. ”
Empress Dowager Cilie nodded.
This is a bit of a big abandonment, which is equivalent to directly giving up the title of earl, as well as the eight-rank official position that can be obtained next year.
You know, how many people break their heads for these things.
Even, it was the title of this earl that Han Jiang's child was assassinated.
No, the Empress Dowager Cilie shook her head again, he didn't believe that Han Jiang just gave up everything, so he beckoned: "Brother Jiang, come to the palace." ”
Han Jiang hurriedly stepped forward.
The Empress Dowager Cilie asked, "Tell the truth to the palace." ”
Han Jiang replied: "Only one person can do this thing, a mother who protects her son." ”
Empress Dowager Cilie asked again: "She? ”
"Aunt and grandmother are wise."
The Empress Dowager Cilie thought about the time of a pillar of incense and said: "Brother Jiang'er, go back, call the cook in the house to come over, and let the cook in the palace know how to make this dim sum, the palace likes it." ”
"Yes, my grandson is leaving."
Han Jiang has already gotten what he wants, as for the result, it depends on the will of God.
Empress Dowager Cilie is Han Yanxuan's aunt, but also his wife's aunt, and is now one of the few living elders in Han Yanxuan's immediate family.
After Han Jiang left.
The two are talking about Li Fengniang.
It is the queen, Li Fengniang, the queen of the main palace.
