In the hot spring palace, the Empress Dowager Dou, the Queen Mother and the old lady of the Yan Chen family were playing mahjong, and the father-in-law was playing cards, and the four of them were playing happily. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

A group of palace maids and attendants continue to take turns to serve, sending all kinds of seasonal fruits.

"The eldest princess heard that the Empress Dowager has a hot spring palace here, and I heard that she is coming over too! And my Pingyang, it is said that I will come with the eldest princess. Wang Wan said while playing cards.

"Well, it's good to have them come and see it." Empress Dowager Dou nodded, her card addiction was extremely high, and all her thoughts were spent on this card game.

"This hot spring palace is much better than Changle Palace. When they come, I'm afraid they don't want to go back! Wang Wan said playfully.

"That's here, I'm planning to stay for a while anyway. Let's talk about it when it's cold. Empress Dowager Dou said.

The corners of Wang Wan's mouth smiled slightly, she strongly supported the Queen Mother's statement. After all, Liu Che is her son, and now that he has ascended the throne, if he wants to make a difference, he must first cross the barrier of the Empress Dowager Dou. I still heard Liu Che say that Yan Ming built the palace to keep the Empress Dowager away from Chang'an and the center of power.

It was precisely because of Yan Ming's move that Wang Wan completely gave up the slightest displeasure with the combination of Yan Ming and Yan Ran, and regarded Yan Ming as her own.

Now, Wang Wan is starting to implement her plan. If Liu Che's throne was obtained by her best means, then now, she invited the eldest princess Liu Concubine to sing a play with her, and left the Empress Dowager Dou in the hot spring palace in Maolingyi.

Before the meal arrived, Yan Ming asked people to prepare.

He asked the maid and the chamberlain to scrape off the freshly filled corn from the pulp with a knife, and then smashed the corn in a large wooden basin with a wooden hammer that smashed the beans.

The corn that has just been filled naturally crumbles into a large pot of corn pulp. Yan Ming selected some spices from the Hot Spring Palace, put them in the corn syrup, and then found a handful of garlic, chopped them, and put them in the corn syrup.

The spices and garlic combine with the flavor of corn, and before you even start cooking, you can already smell a little excited.

Liu Che was not interested in the card game, not to mention, he had told Wang Wan before coming this time that he wanted to find a way to let the Empress Dowager Dou live here for a longer period of time. Now his mother is working hard, and of course it is inconvenient for him to be there.

"What the Queen Mother said has another deep meaning!" Yan Ming said while stirring the corn syrup with a wooden spoon.

Liu Che and he naturally didn't hide it, and said directly: "The Queen Mother feels sorry for me, and it can be regarded as a mother's heart. ”

Yan Ming nodded and said, "Actually, it doesn't have to. After waiting for a few months, when the weather is cold and the heating of the hot spring palace comes up, you just ask the Queen Mother to go back, and her old man will not go back. ”

Liu Che was silent, he believed Yan Ming's words unusually.

"How to make this big pot of corn syrup?" Diverting the topic, Liu Che asked as he knocked on the wooden basin.

"I remember that there were two ways to do it, one was to use corn leaves to put corn syrup and steam it in a large iron pot. Or just take a spoonful of it with a wooden spoon and pour it into a hot pan to make a pancake, which is a delicious thing. Fill your appetite for what you love. Yan Ming smiled.

Liu Che rubbed his hands and said, "When you say that, I'm a little greedy!" ”

Yan Ming saw that the corn syrup was almost there, and immediately asked someone to bring the prepared corn leaves, personally poured the corn syrup into the placed corn leaves, and then asked people to immediately put them in the pot and steam.

On the other side, a large cauldron was already hot, Yan Ming took the shovel he made, took a little oil, poured it into the pot, and waited until the oil was squeaky and hot, he poured a spoonful of corn syrup into the pot.

When the corn syrup is in the pan, it meets the hot oil, and immediately comes out with a mouth-watering aroma. Tortillas cook faster than steamed dried corn.

Yan Ming flipped a few times, and a piece of baked golden corn tortillas came out of the pot. Liu Che had already seen it greedily, and he stretched out his hand to eat. But he was stopped by Yan Ming and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, this mouthful, let's do it for the ministers." Your golden body, what you eat, you still have to test it a priori! ”

Liu Che was slightly stunned, as an emperor, he naturally can't eat casually, and what Yan Ming said is reasonable. It's just that there are naturally people around him to inspect him, and Yan Ming is not needed.

But Yanming didn't give a chance at all, he directly tore a piece of tortilla and put it in his mouth, just by looking at his expression, he knew how delicious this cake was.

In the next pot, Yan Ming put four or five spoonfuls of corn syrup in it at one time, forming four or five corn tortillas.

The fragrance was even stronger, and as the wind blew away, even a few nobles playing cards in the front hall could smell it.

"Did Yan Ming, the little monkey, come over just now? What is he doing in the back kitchen? Emperor Dou smelled the smell of corn and asked with a smile.

"Back to the Empress Dowager, Yan Hou is making pancakes for the Empress Dowager, which are said to be corn tortillas." The attendant beside him said.

"It tastes so good, I'll try it later. Old sister, you have a good grandson! Empress Dowager Dou said to Yan Chen.

"What's the matter, this kid, if the Queen Mother doesn't come, he won't cook this thing." Yan Chen smiled, but in his heart he was giving his grandson a thumbs up. This kind of opportunity is to make something extraordinary.

In the kitchen, Yan Ming had already successfully baked a few corn tortillas, Liu Che wanted to grab them greedily, but he stopped them and said, "The emperor's golden body ......"

But Liu Che didn't buy it at all, he couldn't wait to kick Yan Ming aside, and said, "The body of a fart is golden, don't come to this set with Lao Tzu." I'm going to take a bite now. ”

He was in such a hurry that he popped out the word 'Lao Tzu' that Yan Ming occasionally scolded.

Seeing that Liu Che was about to make a move, Yan Ming stretched out his hand to stop him and said, "Your Majesty, these corn tortillas, just out of the pot, are soft and delicious, please ask Your Majesty to run in person and send them to the front hall." ”

Although Liu Che was greedy, he knew what Yan Ming meant. Empress Dowager Dou was afraid that she would be immature and unstable, so she did not dare to let go of the power of the court.

At this time, in this hot spring palace, it is natural to behave well. Yan Ming baked cakes and delivered them herself, so it was easy for the Queen Mother to think that it was the two grandchildren who personally cooked the food for them.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but glance at Yan Ming more.

Yan Ming said with a smile: "If Your Majesty can't help it, you can eat two bites first." ”

"Go, how can I not help it!" Liu Che swallowed a mouthful of saliva and went to the front hall with a plate of tortillas.

Yan Ming looked at his figure and couldn't help but sigh a little, how long could he and the emperor make trouble like this? After all, this is Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and he is going to grow up after all.

"Master Hou, Master Hou, I'll get the potatoes back for you!" Nameless, who is also regarded as the royal watcher, finally sent the potatoes to the hot spring palace.

"Well done!" Yan Ming looked at the nameless potato and was very happy.
