Li Yi went straight to the imperial brother when he was alive, the direction of the Luofang Pavilion for the flower appreciation, the pavilion was built in the center of the hundred gardens, there are two floors up and down, a stage was set up on the first floor, in the old days of flowers and birds, whenever such as a jade beauty, the singing voice is tactful, dancing and dancing, as if a fairy descends to the earth, it is really a fairyland on earth!

In terms of enjoyment, Li Shen admits the second, and no one dares to admit the first!

The second floor is dedicated to flower appreciation, the tables, chairs, tea sets, and even the seats in the pavilion are complete, and you can take in the beautiful scenery of the entire hundred gardens as far as the eye can see.

The attic is quiet, Li Yi climbed down the stairs to the second floor, the display in the wing room is still the same, spotless, it seems that someone is responsible for cleaning every day, but the old man is gone, the zhengqin lies quietly on the white jade frame, waiting to be stroked; The paper is dry!

Li Yi found a seat next to the window and sat down, outside the window was facing a pear forest, at this time, the pear blossoms were in full bloom, the bees and butterflies were busy among the flowers, and the white flowers and green leaves were printed on the blue sky, which was uniquely beautiful.

There was a hint of sweetness flowing in the air, Li Yi jumped down from the windowsill, landed on the ground in a chic and steady manner, he smelled the fragrance of flowers, and slowly stepped into the forest, enjoying the beautiful scenery while walking.

I saw pear blossoms as pure as snow, clusters of angry on the branches, the wind blowing through the flowers, a few naughty petals, in line with its rhythm, flying and spinning, gracefully landing. As a result, the ground has an extra layer of falling fragrance that is better than snow.

At the end of the pear grove is the peach grove.

Li Yi was a little resistant to the color of the pink women's department, and he was about to turn around and turn back the way he came, when he suddenly heard a woman's melodious singing voice from the peach blossoms not far away:

The wind is blowing through the mountains and rivers

Flowers are scattered into mud and always bloom undefeated

The snow is white at sunrise and white on the eaves

The moon is at hand, and the end of the world is thousands of years

The tune is peculiar, and the lyrics are even more straightforward, not as exquisite as ordinary operas, but they have a different taste.

Li Yi listened attentively for a while, and after a little thought, he looked for the singing, peeled off the layers of peach branches, got closer, and listened to her continue to sing:

The wind is self-reliant, disturbing the sleeves and swinging

The flowers are shaken and the jade color is not picked

The snow is slightly cool and the hair is white

The moon is removed from the silent sky and buried in the nebula

The wind is a clear song that blows through the high platform

The flower is a broken branch and a pink delicacy blooms three hundred

The snow is a tent ornament, a carved bow, lazy open

The moon is a good night, and it is difficult to clear this night

The world is the male, and I am the female

Mountains and rivers cave room sky star candle

In the coming year, the makeup will be ten thousand bones

There is no shade of epilepsy

The great joys and sorrows of the world are slim

Near the mountain, it is planned to think long near the water

The branch of Yihedao is far away

The wind is a shield holding a beacon and a beacon smoke lingering

The flower is a blood spattered five-step corpse trampling corpse

The snow is especially the lid of the coffin

The moon is a silent historian's thoughts

The wind is only as deep as it first sees, and it lingers

Flowers are the world's April drunken moss

The snow is soaked in red dust

The moon is cloudy and sunny, and only the shadow is always there

Li Yi stood still behind a peach tree.

Not far away, a woman in plain clothes walked with her back to her, holding a peach blossom, crossing the sea of flowers, and walking with a song.

I saw that her body was light, and she seemed to be unfinished, and began to twist her slender waist and play in circles, and the skirt slid out with the perfect arc, she was not tired, and she couldn't stop laughing.

Li Yi didn't make a sound, looking at her quietly, his throat was no longer sound, even his steps were as if by magic, he was frozen in place and couldn't move anymore, and his eyes didn't obey, firmly glued to the smart shadow.

A strong wind rushed into the peach forest, the petals fell like snowflakes, and the woman smiled and danced in the falling flowers!

It was a dance that Li Yi had never watched, it was like a shock, chic and wanton, simple and handsome!

It turns out that there really is a flower demon! Li Yi muttered to himself in his heart.

The woman reflexively spun, and a beautiful face came into Li Yi's eyes, it was her!

Li Yi was struck by lightning!

By the time he recovered from the shock, the figure was already dancing and disappearing into the peach forest.

At the twilight of the day, two great events happened in the imperial city!

First, the Queen Mother is gone!

It wasn't until midnight that the frightened, heart-wrenched palace found the "missing" queen mother in the depths of the peach forest!

It turned out that the Queen Mother went to the depths of the forest to pick peach blossoms, but she got lost!

This incident also made the rumor that the Queen Mother was a flower demon bursting before it could ferment! Where are the goblins who get lost among the flowers?!

The second is that the invulnerable King Ding is "sick".

The people in the palace were surprised to find that their prince returned to the palace as if he had lost his soul, returned to the bedroom after dinner was useless, and rarely had a high fever in the middle of the night.

Su Lao tried his best to help him get rid of the fever, but he was still a little stunned and didn't answer anything.

The next day, King Ding got up early to go to the morning court as usual, and was willing to speak, and people seemed to be busier, and the whole palace finally put down their hanging hearts.

Only Su Lao, from the interval between King Ding's words and deeds, discovered his wandering mind.

It's a heart disease, and it's not healed yet!

Su Lao was like an old fox, squinting his cunning eyes, looking at King Ding, who was busy with his feet not touching the ground, thoughtfully.

Two flowers, one on each table.

A few days later, in the outer courtyard of Cining Palace, Ma Xiaoguo's royal kitchen was also built.

Xiaoguo's big eyes turned around, and she carefully looked at everything around her, the stoves were neatly lined up, the pots and pans were shiny and neat, the firewood was stacked, and the water was full, and she nodded with satisfaction.

The next step is the ingredients and seasonings, and she "killed" the mighty "tail" behind her into the imperial dining room.

When the imperial chefs saw the Queen Mother coming, although they didn't know what went wrong, it was always good to kneel and kowtow to say hello.

Xiaoguo looked at the crowd kneeling down and gasped, fortunately, she had accepted this powerless rule in her mind, she cheered herself up in her heart, and raised the posture of the queen mother to let everyone calm down, and she hadn't figured out how to open her mouth to "grab" things with confidence.

Because Mama Wang had something to do at home, she asked for leave of absence from the palace, and the female official who temporarily replaced her work, Bi Tao, has opened her mouth instead of Xiaoguo: "The Queen Mother is benevolent and thrifty, and wants to wash her hands and make soup herself, and set an example for the women of the world, which is really a great blessing for the country and a great blessing for the people!" ……”

A high-sounding truth, I just want to express this: all chefs should try their best to help, hurry up and take out all the seasonings that can be used, and dedicate them to the Queen Mother, which can be regarded as serving the country!

The imperial chefs' hearts were dripping blood, but they had to make a look of gratitude, and hurriedly expressed their attitude, for the sake of Hong Yanguo, for the queen mother, don't talk about such trivial things, even if you go up the knife mountain and go down to the sea of fire, it is incumbent!

Xiaoguo blushed with an old face, shamelessly listening to Bi Tao say that the robber was the Holy Mother, she raised her head high, looking at the clouds in the sky, lest the shame on her face be looked at and ruined.

The imperial chefs trembled their hands and respectfully presented the exclusive secret recipe, Xiaoguo didn't look at it, and asked them to take it back on the spot, she understood that in any era, the private recipe of the chef is a trade secret, and it is as important as net worth.

The ingredients and raw condiments she needs are not people's housekeepers, and besides, after eating the imperial kitchen dishes in the past few days, she has little interest in these recipes, most of them are boiled and stewed, and then they are coated with salt and five-spice powder and fried or sprinkled with salt in a pot of stew!

Seeing that the queen mother didn't want housekeeping skills, the imperial chefs secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly took some of the condiments in the imperial dining room and wrapped them.

Not long after that, Xiaoguo took the palace people to carry bottles and cans, left the imperial dining room, and returned triumphantly.

As soon as she stepped into Cining Palace, Xiaoguo could no longer hold the queen mother's shelf, she ran around and commanded everyone, moved all the things into the kitchen, opened them one by one, and saw that there were salt, lard, vegetable oil, honey, powdered sugar, sauce, star anise, etc.; Flour includes wheat flour, corn flour, lotus root flour, glutinous rice flour, sweet potato flour, soybean flour; In addition, there are some dried goods such as vermicelli, mushrooms, and dried scallops.

Xiaoguo turned back and forth several times, and was a little disappointed that there were no peppers and garlic that were indispensable for cooking.

Can't give up easily!

Xiao Guo gathered all the palace people of Cining Palace, pointed to the sketches of chili peppers and garlic drawn with charcoal ash firewood, and asked, "But anyone can recognize and find these things?" There is a big reward for providing information! ”

The palace people turned their heads and ears, looking at the drawings, while whispering, while their minds were spinning rapidly, everyone desperately wanted to search out some images from their minds, and wanted to get the queen mother's reuse, even if they got the queen mother's praise!

After a while, finally the little eunuch Angelica pointed to the garlic on the painting and said, "Hui Yu Queen Mother, this is like a very similar herb, a kind of medicinal herb that the slave encountered when he was digging herbs with his uncle when he was a child!" I heard my uncle say that this medicine tastes very spicy and unpleasant! That is, medicinal herbs, maybe you can find them in the Imperial Pharmacy! ”

Xiaoguo's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly sent someone to the imperial pharmacy to inquire! On the other hand, in order to encourage everyone, they rewarded Angelica with a handful of golden beans on the spot.

The others looked at Angelica with envy, and also scratched their heads and thought desperately, but unfortunately no one had ever seen chili peppers after all!

Perhaps, there is no such plant as chili pepper in this world! Xiaoguo was a little disappointed.

It is consoling that there is indeed garlic in the imperial dining room!

At this time, the imperial dining room sent someone to send some fresh ingredients that had just been purchased from outside the palace, Xiaoguo left a handful of spring bamboo shoots, a few onions, two pieces of tofu, a crucian carp, a pot of fresh prawns, a slaughtered chicken and two pieces of meat and bones, and let them take the rest back.

She put on an apron that she had found someone to change, and left Angelica and Bi Tao to work in the kitchen, and began to work impatiently.
