Chapter 32: A word determines life and death
All this is in the eyes of Lu Sheng, the secretary of Honglu Temple.
Finished......
From the time the prince woke up, and then when the prince ate yokan with great interest, Lu Sheng knew that everything he had gained in half his life ended here.
He sat almost slumped on the ground, his head buzzing.
However, Wu Zetian looked at Qin Shaoyou with appreciation, and said slowly: "How do you know that the prince is hungry?" ”
Qin Shaoyou pursed his lips, the real test is coming.
When we save people, we must not be humble, but now that we have saved people, we must not be complacent.
The wind is light and the clouds are clear, and the weight is light...... Well, it's a must.
Qin Shaoyou said: "First, the grass people look at him as if they are hungry; Second, when the grass people saw that the imperial doctor was hesitant, they couldn't help but think, before Dali Siqing insisted that it was a heart disease, which is a heart disease, why did the imperial doctor dare not diagnose it? He didn't dare to diagnose it, but he was afraid that he also suspected that there was a possibility that the water and rice had not entered, so he couldn't make up his mind, but he didn't dare to refute Siqing, and the grass people thought of this joint, so they made up their minds. ”
Wu Zetian nodded, looking very satisfied, and said: "I was thinking, this is Honglu Temple, the imperial court has allocated so much money and food, so that the foreign princes and ministers can be properly cared for, but now, the dignified Persian prince almost starved to death in Huaiyuanyi, Lu Sheng ......" Wu Zetian glanced at Lu Sheng meaningfully, and then continued: "Should you give me an explanation?" ”
Lu Sheng's face was as pale as earth, and he hurriedly said: "The minister is guilty of capital crimes." ”
He was no longer possessed by his soul at this moment, and he knew that His Majesty had moved to kill at this time, so he trembled all over his body and couldn't afford to bow to the ground.
"Your Majesty......" Qin Shaoyou smiled and said, "Actually, this can't be blamed on Lu Siqing......
"What ......" Now it was not only Lu Sheng who was surprised, but also Wu Zetian and Shangguan Wan'er, who couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
Qin Shaoyou said with a straight face: "The reason why His Royal Highness the Prince is hungry is not that the Honglu Temple is not taking good care of him, if the grass people guess correctly, when His Royal Highness the Prince fled from the Persian Kingdom, there should not be many servants around him." ”
Lu Sheng was still gritting his teeth at Qin Shaoyou, but now he was a little grateful to Qin Shaoyou, and hurriedly said: "Yes, there is only one martial artist in the servant." ”
"That's right, he grew up in the Persian palace since he was a child, pampered, suddenly suffered a national disaster, had to flee in the starry night, Your Majesty think about it, he is a Persian, came here, he is not adaptable, and the food in Luoyang, I am afraid that most of them are not suitable for his appetite, like the Persian prince, people of this status, should be very picky about food, plus all the way east, displaced, and heard that his father ascended the throne, so he couldn't help but be overjoyed, this big surprise, plus under the usual pampering, the appetite is not good, He couldn't eat the food of his hometown, so he didn't think about it, so although he was extremely hungry, it could be said that he was sick of his heart, and there was nothing wrong with that. ”
Shangguan Wan'er listened on the sidelines, but still seized the loophole: "Isn't there no Persian cuisine in Honglu Temple?" ”
Luoyang is the center of all countries in the world, every year I don't know how many countries of the envoys and businessmen gather, so the diet is also all-inclusive, such as all kinds of Hu cakes from the south and the north of the world, if the Honglu Temple can not even prepare the basic Persian dishes, it is really unreasonable.
Qin Shaoyou smiled, he didn't answer Shangguan Wan'er, but looked at Wu Zetian and said with a smile: "Your Majesty's usual diet, is it the same as that of ordinary people?" ”
Qin Shaoyou broke the heavens with one word.
The diet of the royal family and ordinary people is indeed one in the sky and the other on the ground, even in the big food country, the dishes of the court and the folk are also worlds apart, Honglu Temple can indeed find Persian cooks, but for the Persian prince, these 'Persian taste' things are only afraid that there is no difference from other races.
Qin Shaoyou said again: "I think, usually the princes and nobles of all countries come to this Luoyang, I am afraid that most of them will bring countless servants and entourage, among these people, there must be a cook for them to eat and drink, but this prince His Royal Highness fled in a hurry, even if he brought such a person when he fled, but halfway, I am afraid that he has been separated, he is alone, there is only one warrior by his side, to Honglu Temple, maybe he can barely adapt at first, but gradually homesickness, nostalgia for the food of the Persian court, and gradually fall into displeasure, so that the body is getting thinner and thinner, and it takes a long time to cause this. If it is really far-fetched to say that it is a disease, then it is indeed a disease, but it is just anorexia, but this anorexia comes from a heart disease. ”
"It is precisely because Your Majesty Hongfu happened to summon the grass people, and the grass people happened to dabble in the dishes of the Persian court, so they made this yokan and this Persian cake, His Royal Highness the prince smelled the taste of his hometown, opened his appetite, and wanted to come and take care of it, and it would be good."
Wu Zetian was dumbfounded.
It's that easy?
She couldn't help asking: "How did you know about this dish of the Persian court, which is kept secret?" ”
Qin Shaoyou couldn't tell him that in later generations he had dabbled in the dishes of various countries, so he replied: "The grass people read." ”
Study......
Wu Zetian couldn't help but smile.
She almost forgot that this guy is indeed a person who is rich and rich, first a righteous song, and then a low-quality person, all of which are refreshing.
Wu Zetian couldn't help but re-examine Qin Shaoyou: "But I heard that the gentleman is far away from cooking. ”
A chef is a cook, in this era of paying attention to his background, even Wu Zetian, who boldly appointed Junchen, is not exempt from vulgarity.
Another test.
Qin Shaoyou took a deep breath, he knew in his heart that if he couldn't give a reasonable explanation, then in Wu Zetian's eyes, he would always be just a cook, that is to say, his future was only between this line.
He raised his eyes solemnly, but he was bold enough to look directly into Wu Zetian's eyes, his eyes were staggered, Qin Shaoyou was not timid, his clear eyes were still bright, he smiled calmly: "Your Majesty, the gentleman's kitchen is from "Mencius", this allusion is the story of Mencius meeting King Qi Xuan, the so-called "gentleman is far away from the kitchen", but the gentleman saw the cattle and sheep being killed and couldn't bear it, so he simply couldn't see it and stayed away from the kitchen. Although the grass people are good at cooking, they also think about it, and they are also concerned when they see the cattle and sheep being killed, but the grass people were born in the grass and inherited their father's business, so they have to rely on the kitchen for a living. In the eyes of others, although he is just a cook, but in the eyes of the grass people, he is also a gentleman, that is, Mencius is alive, will he despise people like his father? ”
Wu Zetian listened to his words, and couldn't help nodding his head, Qin Shaoyou's words not only said the source of this sentence, but also understood the meaning of this sentence, which shows that he is knowledgeable, and on the other hand, he moved out of his father, and his father is also a cook, but as a son, he gave a lot of praise to his father, and Qin Shaoyou's filial piety was shown here. In this world where filial piety comes first, as long as Qin Shaoyou says this, no matter what kind of person his father is, no one will refute it.
And the really powerful thing is the last short paragraph, he moved out of Mencius, Mencius is a sage, Qin Shaoyou irrefutably said, Mencius is alive, he will also praise his father, the front presupposes that his father is gentle and frugal, since Mencius is a sage, of course there will be no evil words, otherwise people will not be Mencius, and this sentence is the most meaningless, because Mencius will not be resurrected, even if he is resurrected, it is estimated that he will not put Qin Shaoyou's father in his eyes, but as soon as this assumption comes out, it is enough to sweep away all doubts.
In the end, Qin Shaoyou seemed to be still unsatisfied, and he continued slowly: "Besides, Xiansheng Yuan's kitchen was because he couldn't bear to kill cattle and sheep; And the grass people's cooking skills are to save people, as evidenced by the resurrection of His Royal Highness the prince just now. Dare to ask Your Majesty, is a person who saves people, but just because he uses the method of cooking, he is not a gentleman? No, the grass people think that as long as a person has good thoughts and does not do anything that violates his conscience, no matter what kind of business he does or what kind of background he is, he can be described as a gentleman, if such a person is not a gentleman, then what is the point of being a gentleman? Don't do it! ”
