(Thank you very much to 'Me That Day' and 'Local Brother Mu' for their generosity of 10,000 dollars again.) ）

Pei Shiju said with a smile: "I have already thought of what you said, it is extremely difficult for the two of us to get this official position today, so naturally we can't take risks." ”

Wang Tong thought for a moment and said, "Uncle means ......"

Pei Shiju said: "My grandson Yuanqing has a lot of friendship with Wang Junlin, and I plan to find a suitable opportunity to give Wang Junlin some very powerful help." ”

When Wang Tong heard this, his eyes couldn't help but light up, and he nodded and said, "This son is indeed a good helper for us. ”

Pei Shiju said with a smile: "Tomorrow Wang Junlin will have a banquet in the mansion, and the old man received an invitation written by Wang Junlin himself, so he naturally wants to go." ”

Wang Tong smiled slightly, and said: "I also heard that Wang Junlin actually has to cook and prepare food himself, after the eldest Sun Sheng returned from the Western Regions at the beginning of the year, he once blew the food made by Wang Junlin to the sky, and I naturally want to taste it." ”

……

……

Wang Junlin attaches great importance to the banquet in his Hou Mansion, not only writing invitations in person, but also personally serving dishes, selecting ingredients, and preparing to personally cook a few dishes to entertain distinguished guests.

All kinds of ingredients have been prepared three days ago, a big fat pig hung on the shelf outside the kitchen, at the request of Wang Junlin was cleaned up by the next people, Wang Junlin left from the scene of the bloody case in the Universiade Restaurant yesterday, and after returning home, he commanded the subordinates to decompose the pork, pork ribs, tenderloin, pork belly fat specially set aside, and then find out the fat and thin hind leg meat and tell it to chop into minced meat for later use.

As mentioned earlier, after Wang Junlin became a mercenary, he often wandered abroad and couldn't eat authentic Chinese food, so he worked hard to study food, so that he practiced good cooking skills. Now Princess Xinyi lives among the wild people of the Western Turks, and her life is quite stable, which has a lot to do with the food recipes taught by Wang Junlin himself.

The greatest need of animals is to eat, and although humans are advanced animals, they are still beyond this law. A meal can subtly change a person's thoughts or feelings about a person in many cases. Therefore, in ancient and modern times, Chinese and foreign people like to invite people to dinner. The so-called "if you want to capture a man's heart, you must first grasp a man's stomach" is a full embodiment of this truth.

Wang Junlin knew this very well, so he was ready to make a big fuss about the banquet in his marquis' mansion, and change some people's views on him viciously, cold-blooded, weird, and perverted through food, so as to subtly dispel all kinds of jealousy of the ministers and nobles about him.

Most of the important ministers of the Great Sui are Xianbei people, and they are located in places like Daxing City, where there is no shortage of mutton, and they have not eaten less mutton since they were children, so Wang Junlin spent his mind on pork in addition to preparing a few mutton dishes that these people had never eaten. Pork was eaten very little in this era, but in later generations, it was the most eaten meat by Chinese people, and there were too many delicacies derived from it, which later generations liked it, and there was no reason for the Great Sui people not to like it.

For example, after careful consideration, Wang Junlin thought that the braised pig's trotters should be very suitable for the taste of the guests, so he asked people to buy a cart of pig's trotters to ensure that each visitor had at least one pig's trotters.

The dishes of the Sui Dynasty are too poor and tasteless compared to later generations, in addition to boiling is roasted, or directly eat raw, or something like guan, unhygienic, the parasites in it can not be killed, and will get all kinds of strange diseases, Wang Junlin ordered a pork dish in a restaurant on the way to Beijing some time ago, and a glance reminded him of pork tapeworms running around in a stomach. You must know that there will be health quarantine in future generations, let alone this era.

Wang Junlin remembered that stir-fried food originated in the Song Dynasty, which was an era of food and clothing, great material abundance, and a paradise for literati. But now that he is in the Great Sui and not the Great Song Dynasty, he has to do everything by himself, without a woks and shovels, and Wang Junlin has found someone to build it in the past few days. There are no seasonings and monosodium glutamate, so I can find similar ones by myself, or directly match them with similar ones, such as seasoning them with boiled chicken broth, and as for soy sauce, it is easy to brew, so Wang Junlin tried to make it himself abroad in his later life.

Boiled pig's trotters in a casserole, used ten casseroles, boiled over high heat, poured out the water, then added new water, put in ginger, green onions, garlic, put the seasoning in gauze, and simmered over low heat. Wang Junlin, a dignified marquis, naturally couldn't cook by himself every day, so all the cooks in the mansion were called by him to observe and learn on the spot, worried that these people would not be able to remember, so he asked the account room in the mansion to record the procedures and ingredients on the spot.

I have to say that Wang Junlin personally cooked, and at first scared the people in the house half to death, especially a few cooks crying and kneeling in front of Wang Junlin and shouting that Hou Ye spared his life, which made Wang Junlin very speechless, explained for a long time, and even swore a gambling curse, so that these people believed that they would never blame them for this matter, let alone kill them.

To tell the truth, since Yang Zhao, the king of Jin, sent these servants, because of Wang Junlin's murderous and poisonous name, everyone was worried, worried that they would be killed by the new master at any time, and even eaten. After all, the previous rumors about King's Landing were too terrifying and scary.

It was only a few days later, and the people found out that the difference between this legendary poisonous general Hou Ye and the rumors was too big, it was simply two people, without any arrogance, easy-going speech, never punishing people at will, and showing respect for them from the bottom of their bones, which made them moved.

After all, the lives of servants in this era are as cheap as dogs, when have they ever seen such a kind master. This is still Yang Zhao's more benevolent personality, and there are naturally many families in Daxing City who can afford to support servants, but compared to the huge base of ordinary people, it is not much, but there will be servants being beaten to death every day, and beatings, corporal punishment, torture, trading, and humiliation are even more commonplace.

Wang Junlin was already famous, and as soon as he came to Kyoto, he was crowned the founding marquis and general Zhenyuan, and the day before yesterday he became the superintendent of the imperial history. It's just that there is no family gate valve behind him, and the foundation is shallow, and he was still looked down upon by some gate valve families from the bottom of his heart at the beginning.

But when Wang Junlin in this short period of three or four days, he first drove Qiu Rui, the king of Changping, out of the court, let him lose his official position, and accompanied him with 200,000 taels of silver. Then there was the bloody case of the Universiade Restaurant yesterday, and Wang Junlin did not deliberately conceal that there was his shadow behind this matter, but people couldn't find evidence.

The relationship between the various gate valve families in the capital is complicated, and there are all kinds of contacts and exchanges between each other, so that in some cases, as long as one person knows a piece of news, everyone will soon know. For example, some of the truth about the bloody case of the Universiade Restaurant, when Wang Tong sent the report to Yang Jian, it had already spread among the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty.

In short, Wang Junlin overthrew the only foreign surname Wang Qiu Rui in just three or four days, and killed the grandson of Yang Su, the first minister of Yue Guogong on the spot, which is a fact, so that the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military and the large and small gate lords and nobles in the capital have raised their awareness of him again, and many people have listed Wang Junlin as one of the most unoffending people. Moreover, Wang Junlin did not have the fetters of his family relatives behind him, which made him feel a little "barefoot and not afraid of wearing shoes", which made many people extremely jealous of him, Yang Su and Qiu Rui did not dare to kill him, in addition to Yang Jian's reason, he was worried that once Wang Junlin failed to kill, Wang Junlin would be desperate to retaliate against them by the same means.

Whether they are optimistic about Wang Junlin, or they are jealous and afraid, or they have their own purpose, the people who came to attend Wang Junlin's opening banquet still exceeded Wang Junlin's expectations.

Pei Yuanqing and Changsun Wuji came over early to help Wang Junlin receive some ordinary officials and nobles, and in addition to the expected four important ministers of Changsun Sheng, Yang Lin, Han Baohu, and Pei Shiju, Wang Tong, Su Wei, and Yuwenshu also came, and in addition, some of Yu Juluo's old subordinates in the army also arrived one by one. Everyone brought valuable gifts, Wang Junlin took a brief look, and the income of this gift alone was worth no less than 50,000 taels of silver, and there were two heavyweights who did not come.

Yang Zhao, the king of Jin, came with the eldest princess Yang Lihua, the guards and honor guards of the two royal families, plus the carriage for the king's gifts, lined up a long queue of carriages and horses, and the movement was very noisy, which also attracted various speculations from all parties in the capital. The eldest princess is okay, she is just a princess with a noble status on the surface, but Yang Zhao is the eldest son of the current crown prince Yang Guang, he is friendly with Wang Junlin, could it be the prince's instructions? In fact, many people are speculating that if it weren't for Yang Su being a staunch supporter of Yang Guang, and Yang Su and Wang Junlin had a mortal enmity, if it weren't for Yang Su's feelings, I'm afraid Yang Guang would have come over in person.

Yang Zhao and Yang Lihua's car stopped in front of the main gate of Qin'anhou's Mansion, Wang Junlin came with a large group of people to greet him, it can be seen that Yang Zhao and Yang Lihua's aunt and nephew have a good relationship, and they actually rode in the same luxury carriage, after the two most distinguished guests came down, Mo Jiuhan, who was sitting on the wheel, squinted at Wang Junlin, then flicked the whip, and the six-horse-drawn carriage went to the open space that Zhanpeng specially opened up next to him. The old eunuch had a kind look on his face, but only Wang Junlin knew how perverted this old guy was.

They had obviously slept with each other, but both Wang Junlin and Yang Lihua pretended to be very rusty, greeted each other very formally, and said a few polite greetings.

Without waiting for Changsun Sheng, Han Baohu, Pei Shiju and others to come over to pay their respects, Yang Lihua casually picked up the little lynx Mao Mao at Wang Junlin's feet, and said: "I heard that Qin Anhou has raised two spirit beasts, in addition to this little lynx, there is also a legendary blood-maned horse, although this palace is a woman, but it is an extremely good horse. Therefore, this palace came to congratulate Qin Anhou on opening the mansion today, in addition to tasting the food cooked by Qin Anhou himself, he just wanted to see the blood-maned BMW, and Qin Anhou would send someone to take the palace to see the blood-maned BMW now. ”
