- Black teeth are dyed black teeth, which are said to bring out the whiteness of the skin. For this reason, after the coming-of-age ceremony of the Heian period, both boys and girls would apply a black dye called 'iron paste' to their teeth to indicate that they had entered the age of marriage......

How did 'iron pulp' come about? First of all, after mixing tea, wine, vinegar and other liquids, rusty crushed iron filings are added, and fermented in a dark place for about two months to make foul-smelling iron slurry water. Mixed with 'gallic powder', it becomes a viscous liquid with a fishy smell and black odor. This is not lightly toxic and can cause serious damage to the gums. In the Heian period, the aristocratic men and women used to paint their teeth once or twice a week. I really don't know what to think.

When Chen Ke watched "The Tale of Genji", he remembered a plot that said that the beautiful woman Zihime did not dye her teeth when she was young, but after being adopted by Genji, her grandmother dyed her teeth black to make her look 'more beautiful'. At that time, he didn't understand, could it be that the so-called aristocratic style was a mouthful of big black teeth?

He was in Nagaoka Castle, and he only saw a big black tooth, that is, the castle guard Fujiwara Jingqing, and he thought that this guy's hygiene habits were too poor, and he never brushed his teeth to make trouble. As a result, when I came to Japan in the Heian period, I saw that the nobles were all like this! It is said that there is also a 'non-mainstream' aristocratic woman who resolutely refuses to dye her teeth black, and as a result, she has been dragged into an old woman and can't get married, which makes her grandmother sad to death. Later, it was easy to find a noble son with a 'weird taste', and then I barely made up a pair......

Think about it, Chen Ke was beaten by such a group of people who are more than one meter tall. The waist circumference is also more than one meter and three cloths, the face is brushed with thick white powder, the mouth is full of black teeth, and there is a faint stench of 'elegant lady' surrounding, not to mention hunting beauty, he has the heart to die headlong!

Such a heavy taste of 'beauty', no matter how considerate and submissive. Chen Ke just wanted to shout: 'Ghost! ’

That is, in Kyoto these days, the more he looks at Yue'e, the better he looks, and he feels that she is simply a fairy.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Since beautiful women can't be eaten. Let's eat delicious food. Chen Ke had a good impression of Japanese food in his previous life, with all kinds of fresh ingredients. After careful cooking by the chef, it retains the natural deliciousness, and is skillfully placed with exquisite containers, giving people a double enjoyment of the first sense and taste, and it is known as the healthiest diet.

After being a native of the Great Song Dynasty in this life, he made his own sushi and configured 'Vasami', but unfortunately it was not very authentic, this time he came to Kyoto, he wanted to satisfy his appetite, and then kidnapped two famous chefs back. Cook for yourself!

After coming to Kyoto, he participated in various state banquets, feasts, and feasts, and he almost missed the ...... Fade out the birds!

This hellish place doesn't even eat meat! Whoa. People in Dali believe in Buddhism, but they don't eat meat for half a year, and here from the emperor to the minister, there is no meat at all! It is said that they believed that meat was something that inferior people ate, and that if they ate a four-legged animal, they would be reincarnated as an animal in the next life, so only lowly farmers, hunters, and low-ranking samurai would eat meat. If the minister dares to touch a little meat. Once people know about it, it's like in modern society, it's almost like being known that you are eating people!

In short, it's a mixture.

Originally, it was said that fish could still be eaten. But a few decades ago, there was an emperor who was particularly reverent of Buddha, and felt that the living creatures in the sea were also meaty, so he simply decreed that the consumption of fish, shrimp and shellfish was forbidden, and nothing was allowed to be eaten except vegetarian food! What is even more speechless is that this ban has been fully implemented to this day.

Therefore, Chen Ke these days, the main food he eats is only white rice made of rice, rice balls, rice cakes, etc., accompanied by various pickles and miso soup. Of course, a high-level banquet can't be so monotonous, so there are chestnuts, natto, plums, cabbage and other 'distant tributes' to improve the food, and after the meal, a cup of tea and a few pieces of rice noodles made of small snacks, that is the top state banquet feast. …,

Although the name is very good, it is actually worse than the farmers of the Great Song Dynasty.

They also knew that they were lacking in food, so they apologized to Chen Ke: "It's too unfortunate for adults to come, if you come in spring and summer, you can taste fresh radishes and vegetables......

Chen Ke rolled his eyes, Lao Tzu is not a rabbit!

As for the foods he was looking forward to, don't think about sashimi and octopus balls, you can always have sushi, right? He asked tentatively, and the result was that it was true, so at the next banquet, the host offered a plate of 'sushi' as if it were a treasure. Yes, it's sushi, at least that's what the owner introduced, but no matter how Chen Ke looks at it, it's like a plate of 'dog food'!

After the host's enthusiastic introduction, he learned that this kind of sushi is made by mixing fish, sake lees, salt, vinegar, and rice, and pressing stones to ferment and pickle.

He strongly suspected that this was the work of those rebellious nobles. Didn't the imperial court let you eat fish? Then I'll chop the fish and mix it in the rice, and then ferment it to make it smell, see how you can recognize it!

Watching those princesses and ladies eat with relish, Liu Yue'e wanted to gag all the time.

Chen Ke really couldn't stand it, so he asked his cooks to teach these poor children how to make soup from 'miso', that is, soy sauce...... Miso soup was a battlefield instant food in Japan's Sengoku period hundreds of years later, and it was not yet invented at this time, and people in the Heian period only knew that miso was used as a dipping sauce. And how to roll those rice, pickles and nori into colorful nigiri sushi.

As soon as these two foods appeared, they caused a great sensation, and many ministers said with tears in their eyes: "I only know today that the original food can be so poetic...... so much', so the miso soup was named Zhuangyuan soup, and the sushi in hand was named Zhuangyuan Sushi, and it was solemnly recorded in the history of the country:

'In the first year of Kangping, Chen Gong, the champion of the Heavenly Dynasty, crossed to the east, gave ceremonial music, taught poetry, and had many ink treasures handed down. He also teaches 'Champion Soup' and 'Champion Sushi' as Japan's national food......

After returning from the banquet, Chen Ke saw that she was in a trance, and couldn't help but be concerned: "What? ”

Liu Yue's face turned pale, and her voice was like a mosquito's chirping: "Do I have it?" ”

"What's up?" Chen Ke's eyes widened.

"There is a little doll...... Liu Yue'e pursed her mouth when she boarded, wiped her tears and said, "Woo, grandpa will beat me to death." ”

"How is that possible?" Chen Ke was very surprised: "Why do you say that? ”

"I want to vomit so hard ......"

"Is that a famous Japanese dish smoked?" Chen Ke smiled bitterly: "We don't have that, how can we have it?" ”

"Why didn't you ......" Liu Yue's face turned into a red cloth: "I let you kiss like that......"

"Hahahaha......" Chen Ke couldn't help laughing.

"Still laughing!" Liu Yue'e stretched out her hand to twist him and said, "I'm going to be scared to death, and you still laugh ......"

"Hahaha, let me finish laughing......" Chen Ke almost laughed, and when he saw that Liu Yue'e was about to make a lion's roar, he stopped and said, "Who told you that if you kiss you, you will get pregnant?" ”

"Isn't it?" Liu Yue's eyes widened and said, "My grandmother has always said that......"

Chen Ke fell down, holding his stomach and told her how men and women made a third person, which made Liu Yue'e ashamed. At the end, he complained a little: "What are your concerns? ”

"What can I worry about," Chen Ke smiled and touched her red little face: "I just want you to have a perfect first night......

"Nasty." Liu Yue'e said, and kissed him on the lips with a little water, looked at him hotly and said, "You idiot, there is nothing more perfect than that night......"...,

The two were talking sweetly, when they suddenly smelled the smell of meat, Chen Ke immediately changed his face, and followed the smell to the courtyard where the guards lived. Finding that these fellows were really hungry, his guards came back with a few dogs, peeled the skins and washed them in a pot for nothing, and added a little salt......

"Bold, dare to steal food behind my back!" Chen Ke said angrily, and the guards turned gloomy, but after listening to him, they changed their faces and said, "Leave the two dog legs to me......"

The guards were overwhelmed, and it turned out that the adults also wanted to eat meat and were about to go crazy.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Chen Ke They haven't eaten meat for half a month, so they want to steal other people's dogs to eat, but many extreme Japanese ministers not only eat vegetarian all their lives, but also listen to the monk's fooling, so they simply don't eat vegetables at all, and eat rice soup every day, at most sprinkle a little salt...... It's so easy to feed!

But this does not prove that they also have a 'simple' side, and the word simplicity is simply a stain on the Heian period. Although the diet is a little bland, they work the tableware, wine utensils and tables, making them painted with gold and paint, beautiful, and pursuing an elegant environment and artistic conception...... This is the origin of Japanese cuisine, the practice of putting only one chopstick dish on a large plate.

Chen Ke was surprised to find that the Japanese ministers and nobles were almost young people with clear water, which made him wonder, where did the old man go?

The answer is, they all went to the grave. According to later statistics, the average Heian period minister lived to be thirty-two years old. And the average life expectancy of aristocratic women is only twenty-seven years! Of those, about 55 percent died of tuberculosis. Ten percent of deaths are due to skin cancer, twenty percent to beriberi, and general rickets – according to modern medical concepts, these are mainly caused by heavy clothing, toxins in cosmetics, and nutritional disorders!

However, the Japanese people had an average life expectancy of more than 50 years, and the samurai who ate meat and practiced martial arts could live to nearly 70 years old, even exceeding the level of the Song Dynasty.

In contrast, those ministers who enjoy the best treatment but have a short life will naturally have a huge sense of loss. Therefore, they always like to lament the shortness of life, and say something stupid that 'life is as gorgeous as summer flowers, and death is as quiet and beautiful as autumn leaves'. But I didn't think about it, this is purely my own tossing-

What's more, it's the end of the world, and you still have to ask for a monthly pass? If there is no tomorrow, won't the monthly pass in the guest officer's hand be invalid? (Your support is my biggest motivation.) )
