Chapter 12 Popular Population
After Zhaoyang left, because the battle was too fierce in the first half of yesterday, he was busy accepting the memories of his predecessor in the second half of the night, because he overslept, he didn't even eat breakfast, and he came to discuss the government with the minister, and then discussed with Ling Yin Zhaoyang for a long time, and he was already hungry and dizzy at this time.
As an ordinary person who can't be poor and can't have a poor mouth, no matter how bitter he is, he has the opportunity to experience the treatment of the king of Chu, so he naturally has to feast on it.
"Order, the widow wants to eat."
As soon as these words came out, a noble and elegant King of Chu suddenly turned into a hungry and thirsty mud leg.
During the Warring States period, the time to eat was different from now. Now it's three meals a day, breakfast, lunch and dinner. At the time of the Warring States period, there were only two meals, about ninety in the morning, breakfast was eaten, and dinner was eaten at about four o'clock in the afternoon. At night, the poor who save lamp oil have no activity to do except sleep.
Two meals a day is the standard of the poor, the aristocracy does not apply to this standard, during the Warring States period, the aristocracy has been popular three meals a day, but this is the difference between the three meals a day and the present, that is, there is still no lunch, but a night snack that is suitable for that time.
Of course, eating snacks at other times to fill your stomach and the like is not considered a formal meal.
As the official in charge of the diet of the king of Chu, although he was surprised by the words of the king of Chu, he still stepped forward and asked, "What does the king want to eat?" ”
Regardless of whether the king of Chu requested it in advance or not, the eunuch would automatically prepare some food that the king of Chu liked to eat in case of emergency.
Hearing the inquiry, Xiong Huai thought about it and recalled his ex's eating habits.
This memory was suddenly dumbfounded.
As the king of Chu, what he eats in his mouth is naturally the most exquisite food made in this era.
However, the food eaten by the king of Chu, because the state of Chu was located in the south, the staple food of the nobility was mainly rice. As for the dishes, there is an idiom called "Popular", which are the two most well-made dishes in the entire Warring States period.
Among them, the kumba refers to the thin slices of meat cut out with a knife, which is different from eating hot pot now, and the kan of the Warring States is eaten raw, dipped in sauce, and directly eaten.
Most of them are fish, but there are also delicate parts of other animals, and they are all eaten raw.
Don't think that sashimi is a Japanese specialty, it has been around since ancient China, but it will be gradually abandoned in the future because it is not cooked, and it is easy to produce parasites and diseases.
Eating untreated sashimi can lead to the problem of parasites growing in the body, which has long attracted the attention of the ancients, and Hua Tuo once diagnosed this condition for Chen Deng during the Three Kingdoms period.
However, in the Warring States period, there was no such understanding, and the so-called "not getting tired of eating" refers to fine staple foods and thin slices of meat.
As an ordinary person who has crossed over, Xiong Huai was difficult to accept for a while, and he was faintly disgusted in his heart.
Looking at the bottom of the fire word of this word, you can look at the meaning of the text, and you can know that this is barbecue.
In addition, the second-class dishes are not able to eat Jiuding in life, so death is cooked in Jiuding. This is the most eaten thing by nobles and commoners------ soup.
Pure broth is called dumpling, vegetables and meat are mixed together to get soup called soup, and the poor generally eat wild vegetable soup.
Other dishes, the previous king of Chu has not yet encountered, in the Warring States where the gentleman cooks far away, it is either grilled or boiled.
Thinking of this, Xiong Huai's head began to ache faintly, could it be that he could only eat barbecue and drink soup in this life.
There was a thunderous sound in his stomach, and Xiong Huai remembered the braised pork, kung pao chicken, chopped pepper fish head, and fish-flavored shredded pork...
"If only I had been a cook..."
Xiong Huai laughed at himself and said to the person in charge of the king of Chu's diet: "The widow has no appetite now, take a bowl of soup and bring some bait, remember to take more." ”
The eunuch was stunned when he heard this, the king had no appetite, but he wanted to take more bait, what was going on?
Whether the king has an appetite or not, the king's mind is so complicated, he has to be careful.
Cake bait is a pastry, a pastry made from staple foods such as rice. Early in the morning, Xiong Huai can't eat barbecue, and he is not used to drinking it at this time as a pure broth, and now he only uses some pastries to save the emergency.
Watching the King of Chu gobble up the pastries sent over, Taiguan breathed a sigh of relief, although the King of Chu has no appetite, he still has a great appetite, as for the difference between appetite and appetite...
Xiong Huai swallowed the last piece of pastry in his mouth, drank the whole bowl of soup in one go, suppressed his shock, and secretly sighed: "Sad, it seems that I will have to eat clear soup hot pot in the future, but this taste is really not bad." ”
After eating and drinking, it's time to get down to business. Xiong Huai thought about it, he had just crossed over, so it was better to keep a low profile, and interfering indiscriminately in the national affairs of Chu would only make jokes.
Especially the scene of the morning court meeting, it really can't be taken for granted.
Recalling the memories of his predecessor, it seems that his predecessor has almost no private interviews with micro-services, and Xiong Huai, who has been bombarded by TV, suddenly became very interested, maybe he can go out for a while, and he can go out alone for two or three people to come back.
The problem is that the predecessor's memory is not familiar with anything other than the Chu Palace, and he needs a guide so as not to get lost.
If you are looking for a guide, of course, you must find the one you are most familiar with.
"Come on, it's rumored that Dr. Qu Yuan of Sanlu has seen a widow."
Soon, Qu Yuan followed Xiong Huai with a worried and helpless expression, followed by several entourages, out of the Chu Palace, and walked at will.
Since Qu Yuan was slandered by the ministers, his relationship with the king of Chu has gradually become estranged, and since he wrote about his departure, his relationship with the king of Chu has been further estranged.
It is rare for the King of Chu to be summoned today, but he wants to leave the Chu Palace and go outside.
The request of the king of Chu almost scared Qu Yuan out of the heart attack, and after repeated persuasion to no avail, he had to follow Xiong Huai out of the palace.
As soon as Xiong Huai left the Chu Palace, he knew why Qu Yuan stopped him from leaving the palace, because there were too many people and it was too dangerous.
