"The weather is cold, Your Majesty and Concubine Zheng should taste these foods of the minister as soon as possible, especially stinky tofu, the minister is quite frightened, and please prepare your Majesty psychologically!" Chen Xu smiled and walked to the table where he was eating.

"It's okay, I also want to see what this stinky tofu smells like and tastes so good!" Qin Shi Huang sat down with Concubine Zheng again, his face full of anticipation.

However, when Chen Xu lifted the lid on the plate that was fried stinky tofu, a rich smell emanated, and Qin Shi Huang's face was obviously distorted in an instant, and he could clearly see that he was holding his breath.

And the palace maids and chamberlains who served around also changed their faces greatly, and one by one they secretly lowered their heads and covered their mouths and noses with their sleeves.

Chen Xu hurriedly closed the lid and said with a dry smile: "Your Majesty, this thing is the mutual birth of yin and yang, tea has three flavors, moisturizing the five organs, and the five elements, and moisturizing the soul, this stinky tofu has the ability to regulate the stomach, circulate vitality, and can stimulate the god of grains, which has a good effect on Concubine Zheng's loss of appetite; The body is yang, so we must have a harmony of sweet, sour, bitter, spicy and salty flavors in our diet, so that yang energy can rise; The soul is yin, and it must be harmonized with fragrance and odor to gather yin energy; As the saying goes: If you enter the room of Zhilan for a long time and don't smell its fragrance, it is not that the orchid is not fragrant, but that our soul is blinded. Concubine Zheng has been eating the light and sweet meal in the palace for a long time, which makes her nervous, if she eats a few pieces of this stinky tofu, maybe it will be better! ”

Chen Xu was full of nonsense, Qin Shi Huang actually had a big look on his face, and couldn't help nodding and saying: "I see, I also feel that sometimes the food is a little difficult to swallow, not because the meal is not fragrant, but because the spirit is not good, it seems that the meal must be full of all seven flavors, Qinghe Hou don't use the cover, I want to eat a piece immediately!" ”

After Qin Shi Huang finished speaking, he picked up the chopsticks, directly picked up a piece of stinky tofu with sauce and put it in his mouth, just chewed it, and the expression on his face stretched out in an instant.

"Delicious, it is really a magical delicacy, the entrance is crispy and tender, the fragrance is incomparable, and the concubine also hurried to eat a piece of appetizer, maybe she will have an appetite soon!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Concubine Zheng kept looking at Qin Shi Huang, and after hearing this, she quickly picked up a piece of chopsticks and put it in her mouth, and a smile quickly appeared on her thin cheeks.

"Sure enough, as Your Majesty said, this stinky tofu is really a magical food, and the concubine's appetite is much better!"

And Concubine Zheng didn't seem to be telling a lie, she ate one piece and then ate two or three pieces.

"Concubine Zheng has been anorexic for too long, this stinky tofu is still eaten less, this bean sprouts are crisp and tender, you can eat some rice noodles and rice, tofu milk is marinated in spices, fresh, salty and spicy, you can also eat less!" Chen Xu stood next to him and reminded.

"Thank you Qinghehou for reminding me!" Concubine Zheng obeyed, and ordered the maid to bring a small half bowl of corn, with bean sprouts and tofu, and quickly ate it all, and after eating, she drank a bowl of soup before putting down the bowl and chopsticks, and the complexion on her face seemed to be much better.

"Haha, I may not have eaten so much food for a long time, but these dishes made by Qinghehou are really delicious!" Qin Shi Huang not only ate the remaining pieces of stinky tofu, but also ate a large bowl of rice, and ate the fried plate of bean sprouts cleanly before stopping.

"If Your Majesty likes to eat, I will teach the imperial chef how to make these dishes, and you can eat them every day in the future, but the minister also wants to remind you that it is too much, please refrain from any food, and you can't eat too much at a time!" Chen Xu arched his hand and said.

"I have written it down, come here, reward the Qinghe Hou Wanjin, ten brocade horses!" Qin Shi Huang was excited.

"Thank you Your Majesty for the reward, right now that the weather is cold and freezing, Your Majesty can drink some Qinghe wine with Concubine Zheng to help the fun, which not only dredges the blood veins but also has the effect of calming the soul, making the sleep sweet!"

"And that's what you say?" Qin Shi Huang was stunned for a moment.

"Yes, Qinghe wine is made from mountain grapes, which is beneficial to the smooth flow of blood, increases appetite, eliminates fatigue, and has many effects such as stable sleep, and drinks one or two taels before going to sleep, which is of great benefit to the body, and long-term drinking can also prolong life with skin care and skin care......"

"Okay, it turns out that Qinghe wine still has so many magical effects, I didn't know it, come here, go get Qinghe wine, I want to drink it with Concubine Zheng!" Qin Shi Huang stood up happily.

"Your Majesty, remember, don't drink tea half an hour before going to bed!" Chen Xu reminded him again when he was about to leave.

"What's the point?" Qin Shi Huang asked.

"Tea is a refreshing thing, and drinking tea under fatigue can awaken the soul, so drinking tea before going to bed will make you restless!"

"I see, fortunately Qinghe Hou reminded me today, no wonder I have been unable to sleep after drinking tea a few days ago, it seems that I will change the habit of drinking tea before going to bed in the future!"

"What Your Majesty said is, although the tea is good, but it is too much, although the wine is good, but it should not be excessive, too much will be confused, and the god will lose its reason and nature, everything needs a degree, just like the law of the world, if there is a degree, it is a good law, and if there is no degree, it is an evil law, and there is no boundary between good and evil, just look at where this degree is?"

Qin Shi Huang's face became slightly solemn, nodded slightly, and said: "What Qinghe Hou said is right, there are degrees of ten thousand laws, and there are benefits, I have written it down!" ”

The two talked, Fusu and Concubine Zheng listened carefully beside them, and many imperial chefs, maids, and chamberlains in the room watched Chen Xu and the First Emperor talking and laughing freely, and they were all terrified, and they were deeply surprised by the young man in front of him who was only fifteen years old and became a marquis, and they couldn't wait to tear off their clothes...... Well, dig out your head and see what kind of ghost is hidden inside, why you are not afraid of facing the emperor.

The waiter who took the wine went and returned, and seven or eight people carefully escorted a bottle of Qinghe wine over.

This Qinghe wine is served in a porcelain bottle, and the surface of the delicate snow-white porcelain bottle is painted with a bunch of purple grapes, and the four ancient seals of Qinghe wine are still written, which looks more than a hundred times higher than the gray clay bottle before.

"Your Majesty, Qinghe Liquor has been fetched!" A few chamberlains carefully placed the wine bottles on the table.

"The minister will not disturb His Majesty and Concubine Zheng to enjoy the joy of family, and the minister will retire!" Chen Xu bowed.

Now that the two of them are full, they will drink some little red wine together to have fun, and there is no entertainment in the cold weather, maybe they can do something that the two of them should do normally on a whim, and it will be a bit bad for them to continue to stay.

"I'm tired of Qinghe Hou today, and the emperor will send Qinghe Hou back to his house!" Qin Shi Huang commanded with a smile on his face.

"Yes, Father, Marquis Qinghe, please!" Fusu sent Chen Xu away with a respectful face, and not far from the palace gate, he heard Qin Shihuang's very happy voice from behind: "Order, I will stay at Concubine Zheng's place today......"

"Thank you Qinghe Marquis today!" Sent Chen Xu to the outside of the Qinghe Marquis's Mansion, and after Fusu got off the car, he respectfully saluted Chen Xu.

"Your Highness, don't be polite, Concubine Zheng is sick, it is a disease of accumulation of depression, not one day can be recovered, His Royal Highness still has to pay more attention to her on weekdays, chat and talk with her, and you can also arrange for the palace maid to accompany her to do some light exercises, so that the depression can be slowly dissipated, and it may be difficult to cure it through diet and decoction alone!" Chen Xu replied.

"Fusu knows, but the father and the emperor stayed at the mother's concubine, it has not been seven or eight years, and there are only a handful of visits on weekdays, all Fusu is especially grateful to the Hou Ye for his persuasion to the father today, if there is no Hou Ye, the father and the emperor will definitely not have such a mind and change, and the mother and concubine have never dared to mention this kind of thing, for fear of competing for favor, and the mother concubine was not in good health, and the accumulation of time has passed, and this illness is also worse day by day, but today's father's grace, the mother concubine must be in a good mood, and her body may get better soon......"

If these words were someone else, Fusu would definitely not say a word, but he was truly grateful to Chen Xu for what he did today, after all, it was an extremely private matter involving his father and mother, and it was inconvenient for a son of man to talk about it, but today he said it very calmly, and his attitude was respectful and sincere.

"In this way, Your Highness will follow me into the house, I will teach Your Highness a simple and beneficial little play, you will take it back to the palace after you learn it, teach Concubine Zheng and some palace maids, and accompany her to entertain her on weekdays, maybe her condition will improve!"

"Thank you Qinghehou, it's the best!" Fusu was excited.

took Fusu into the house, and then found Yu Wuya, Yingbu and the steward Huangfu Que, set up a mahjong table, and invited Fusu to sit down.

Looking at the small snow-white porcelain blocks with various strange patterns on the table, Fusu's face was full of confusion.

And when Fusu was in a daze, Yu Wuya Yingbu and Huangfu Que were already skilled and began to build cards after rubbing them around.

Chen Xu stood behind Fusu, first carefully introduced the mahjong tiles, let Fusu learn to build cards like Yu Wuya, and then threw the dice, drew the cards, and neatly erected them in front of him one by one.

"Your Highness, the rules of mahjong are very simple, each person draws thirteen cards in their hands, and puts these pies and wind cards together, arranged in order of size, so that it will look clear at a glance......"

"One tube~"

When Chen Xu gave Fusu some guidance and explanation, Yingbu, who got started, typed out one.

"Qinghe Hou, what should I do?" Chen Xu explained, Fusu roughly figured out the meaning of the card, but how to play it was still full of mush, so he could only turn his head and ask Chen Xu.

"Draw a card!" Fusu obediently grabbed one, it was three, Chen Xu glanced at it and asked him to put it in the position of the strip in order, and then beat the wind out of one, "Red." ”。

"Bar~" Yu Wuya on the opposite side happily put out three red cards, and then stretched out his hand and said, "Five coins!" ”

Fu Su looked confused, and looked at Chen Xu blankly: "What does five dollars mean?" ”

"Oh, ah~ haha!" Yu Wuya also came to his senses instantly, smiled and withdrew his hand and said, "Your Highness, I'm sorry, I'm used to it, we usually add five dollars to the bar, and I don't want you to pay today!" ”

"How's that going to work? That is, of course, the game must have a colorful head. ”

As the prince of Great Qin, although Fusu's words and deeds are very strict and steady on weekdays, he must not have a lot of play, so he understood it as soon as he heard it, and touched his body a few times and found that he didn't bring any money today, so he took off a piece of jade pendant from his waist and handed it to Yu Wuya and said, "Fusu will use this jade pendant to pay five dollars!" ”

Looking at this piece of beautiful jade with a snow-white body, warm and delicate like mutton fat, everyone at the table was a little stunned, Yu Wuya took it and took a look at it, then put it into his arms and said: "Your Highness is really a person who believes in his word, this jade pendant is even five dollars, and I will return it to you when His Highness wins!" ”

"Good!" Fusu nodded happily, a table of people continued to touch the cards and play cards, crackling, three laps later, Fusu has been completely familiar with most of the rules of mahjong, don't Chen Xu pointed out and began to play well, but he was unlucky, and he had already exported a jade pendant and a jade wrench.
