Nima, I've been so proud lately that I've almost forgotten about these two giants!

Chen Xu stared at these two place names for a long time, and then began to pinch his chin and think.

If Jiang Heng and Jiangbei Pavilion can be arranged to serve in Huiji County and Pei County, wouldn't it be like two eyeliners who can keep Liu Bang and Xiang Yu in their eyes, and once there is a change in the court one day, they can notify the two of them to take Xiang Yu and Liu Bang down in advance.

Once the two most powerful leaders of the rebel army are gone, I think there will be a relatively big turning point in history.

And without Xiang Yu, the butcher, the population of Huaxia would not experience a cliff-like attrition.

However, Chen Xu has been thinking quietly for half an hour, and still feels clueless, although the emperor values him, but if he interferes with this kind of official personnel arrangement, it will inevitably cause Li Si and Feng Quji's dissatisfaction, especially Feng Quji, the official arrangement is the work of his Shangshu provincial officials to deploy the ya.

It seems that I have to find a way to communicate with Feng Quji, but it seems that I am not familiar with Feng Quji, and Feng Quji does not have a beautiful daughter for me to hook up with.

Chen Xu sat on the chair and kept picking his hair, and the water came in softly with tea.

"Husband, why are you so depressed?" Shui gently put the tea on the desk and asked with concern.

"Gentle, do you remember when I told you about Xiang Yu and Liu Bang?" Chen Xu gently hugged the water and sat on his lap and said.

Shui nodded softly: "Naturally remember, last time you said that these two people were seen in the Kyushu Anecdotes, and it was the two of them who broke through Xianyang and destroyed Daqin!" ”

"Not bad!" Chen Xu nodded, then pointed to the two place names marked with red pen on the map and said, "Last time you asked me where these two people were?" I didn't tell you, in fact, these two people are in Pei County and Wu County respectively, but they are still civilians at the moment! ”

Shui's gentle eyes fell on the map, and her gentle and shy face became serious and serious, "Husband, if you feel that this matter is tricky, you are willing to kill it to prevent future troubles!" ”

"Now I am the Hou Ye, so many subordinates, how can I let you go to the danger alone, Xiang Yu is still young now, it is estimated that he is thirteen or fourteen years old, and he is still an ignorant teenager, but that Liu Bang is already forty years old, and he is still a pavilion chief, and he has a good reputation in the local area.

Shui thought softly for a while and nodded: "This matter can indeed be arranged in advance, once it is found that the two of them have bad intentions, they can be killed in advance, so as not to spoil the husband's big thing!" ”

"Well, I'm just worried about this matter, the emperor was going to pardon Jiang Beiting and Jiang Heng to be transferred to other counties, I wanted to get the two of them to Wu County and Pei County, but this matter is a little difficult to meddle in......"

"Husband, don't be too anxious, after all, the emperor is now at the peak of the Spring and Autumn Period, and Daqin's plan will not change within a few years, let alone last night...... My husband didn't sleep enough last night, so let's take a good rest today, don't work too hard! ”

"Well, what the lady said is that if you worry too much, you will be bald!" Chen Xu felt that what his wife said was very reasonable, so he said with a smile: "Come with me to the kitchen and have a good meal of spicy snails today!" ”

As soon as she heard that she was going to eat snails, Shui Qingrou's face suddenly turned a little pale and hurriedly got off Chen Xu's body, "Husband, go ahead, I'll teach Xing'er and Yu Ji to read and write!" ”

Watching the gentle and delicate figure of the water float away from the room, Chen Xu hummed a little song with a strange face and went to the kitchen.

Two large potted snails have been soaked in water overnight.

Each one was cleaned with a brush, and it was repeatedly penetrated several times with water with salt, and the sediment in the snail had already been spit clean.

When Chen Xu walked into the kitchen, what he saw was two large pots of fat snails that could be put into the pot.

"All washed?" Chen Xu squatted down and scratched the wooden basin with his hand, feeling that there was no more sediment at the bottom of the basin.

"Don't worry, Master Hou, we change the water every half an hour, and there is no sediment last night!" A kitchen worker hastened to answer.

"Master Hou, can this shelled water worm really be eaten?" The other cook, with a slightly nervous look on his face, asked.

Chen Xu stood up and looked at several kitchen workers with almost the same expressions, and said with a smile: "I said before that you have to have the courage to try anything, how about the stinky tofu at the beginning?" Is it tasty? ”

"Fragrant, delicious!" Several of the cooks nodded together.

"Was yesterday's fried crab delicious?"

"Crispy and delicious!" The cooks nodded together again.

"That's right, when have you ever seen Ben Hou make bad food, don't rub it off, go to the tool room and find a few iron tongs!" Chen Xu waved his hand, and a kitchen worker hurriedly went to find tongs, and quickly brought over three iron tongs of different sizes.

These iron tongs have flat heads and pointed heads, all of which are made by Chen Xu after the style of iron tongs seen in later generations to make hemp rods, and they are not very useful on weekdays, mainly used by some research departments of the Academy of Sciences to design and make some exquisite gadgets, and Chen Xu is naturally equipped with one or two of each at home.

Chen Xu took a pair of iron tongs, picked up a snail from the basin, and then crushed the tip in front of the snail with a click, and then pulled out the internal organs of the snail.

"See, just like this, crush the sharp corners to remove the internal organs, so that the flavor of oil, salt, sauce and vinegar and other condiments can penetrate into it when stir-frying, and the finished ones are delicious, so hurry up!"

Chen Xu threw the iron tongs to a kitchen worker next to him, so the three kitchen workers squatted down and began to clamp the snails, while Chen Xu arranged for two cooks to help prepare ingredients such as green onions, ginger, garlic, mustard, pepper, sour radish, etc., and soon there was a clanging sound in the kitchen.

When the condiments for the fried snails were ready, the three kitchen workers also quickly sandwiched a large plate of snails, which was five or six catties, so Chen Xu instructed the stove to add fire, and at the same time washed the sandwiches with water again and drained them for later use.

The two servants helped Chen Xu put on an apron and a white high hat at this time, and looked like a hotel chef in the later generations, after the equipment was put on, Chen Xu felt that his defense value had increased a lot, so he poured some tea oil into the pot, and after the burning began to smoke slightly, first put in two spoons of soybean sauce into the pot and stir-fry, and then put in a few marinades such as peppercorns, star anise, and nutmeg to continue to stir-fry, and after smelling the strong fragrance, put the cleaned snails into the pot, and stir-fry for about five minutes. Then add the chopped ginger, garlic, shiso, three spoonfuls of soy sauce, sprinkle a little mustard, and finally add the chopped sour radish.

With the continuous addition of ingredients, a slightly choking rich fragrance spread in the kitchen, and suddenly everyone felt their mouths full of saliva dripping out, and they couldn't stop it.

And Chen Xu, who was frying the snails, was also tempted by this strong fragrance, the spatula was turned over and over in the iron pot, and his stomach was rumbling, and he was called up by the emperor in the morning to go to court, and he ate two steamed buns, although it had only been more than an hour, but smelling this tempting fragrance, he felt that he was hungry and had no strength in an instant.

"Poof~~" Chen Xu poured a scoop of water into the pot, and with a mist rising into the air, the entire kitchen was soon filled with white water vapor.

"Medium fire!" Chen Xu ordered to close the lid of the pot and continue to simmer, accompanied by a gurgling sound, a more intense fragrant kiss continued to emanate with the steam.

At this time, there are many people who have been tempted by this rich fragrance, from the housekeeper to the cleaner, one by one they smell the fragrance and run over like rabbits.

"Sure enough, Master Hou is cooking in person!"

Several guards stood outside the window with swords and whispered to each other, looking at Chen Xu, who was wearing a high hat and a white coat, busy working in the kitchen, their eyes full of expectation.

Their group of guards has a relatively high status in the back house, except for the steward and a few personal maids, the guards are treated the best, and the daily supply of good food and drink has never been lacking, and every time the Hou Ye makes something delicious, they must be indispensable.

"Hiss~ It's so fragrant, I don't know what kind of delicacy Hou Ye makes?"

"Could it be the legendary spicy crayfish?"

"Impossible, I heard that the crayfish are still 108,000 miles away!"

"I wonder if it's going to be our share?" Several cleaners drooled and gathered in the room drooling.

"Brother, don't eat it all, leave us some~"

There are still dozens of meters away from the kitchen, and the two little girls are running frantically to the kitchen with their little skirts one after the other, their faces are still stained with ink, and Apricot is still shouting loudly while running.

A maid followed behind and said hello, slowly, slowly.

Chen Jiang held a broom in his hand, accompanied by several maids, and hurriedly followed behind and scolded: "Dead Nizi, you have to beat your ass today!" ”

"Brother save me!" Xing'er rushed into the kitchen, looked at Chen Jiang's who was angry behind her, and quickly hid behind Chen Xu.

"Brother Xiao Xu, help, Yu Ji don't get spanked!" Yu Ji was afraid of suffering from the fish pond, and she also screamed and hid behind Chen Xu with her little buttocks.

Looking at Chen Jiang's who came in a hurry in anger and the broom in his hand, Chen Xu hurriedly stopped Chen Jiang's with black lines, and took the broom in her hand down and said, "Mother, dissipate your anger, what's wrong with Xing'er and spanking again?" ”

"Don't protect her, just gently teach them to read and write, smell the fragrance and can't help it, like a lost soul, throw the brush away, and splash the ink softly......"

Uh, Chen Xu's cheek couldn't help but twitch a few times and said with a wry smile: "Mother, don't be angry, wash your clothes if you get dirty, Xing'er quickly confessed her mistake to her mother, and apologized to her sister-in-law in a while!" When Chen Xu spoke, he lifted the two girls out one by one.

"Mother, don't be angry, I won't throw a brush anymore!" Apricot lowered her head and admitted her mistake.

"Auntie, I won't lose the brush anymore!" Yu Ji followed Xing'er and lowered her head to admit her mistake.

"Mother, you see, they all admit their mistakes, you extinguish the fire, my spicy fried snails are almost ready!"

After Chen Xu finished speaking, he opened the lid of the pot and took a look, and found that the soup was almost dry, so he didn't care about speaking, put the salt and green onions in the pot and stir-fried them a few times, covered the pot and continued to simmer.

And the two little girls were lying on the edge of the stove, watching a pot of fragrant snails being covered again, and suddenly they couldn't wait to arch their little heads close to the pot to see.
