Chapter 27 Rules among the Aristocrats

"Thank you, I'll think about it. Chen Yuan clenched his fists and said to Xiao Wanqing gratefully. "You've told us so much about the talent test and the Academy, if you don't dislike it, I'll treat you to something to eat, it's guaranteed to be something you haven't tasted before. Chen Yuan invited, he always felt that people had told him so much useful news, and he also helped his group to relieve the siege, so he didn't thank him well, and he always felt that he couldn't go away.

"Okay, okay, I'll give you news, you invite me to dinner. But let's talk about it, it's you who promise, if I eat the dishes you said, you'll owe me a favor. Xiao Wanqing readily agreed, with a cunning but wise glint in her eyes. She is the little princess of Weiqing City, she grew up in Xiaoqing City since she was a child, and she has never visited any of the restaurants and restaurants in the city, and it is really difficult to find a dish that she has not eaten. In Xiao Wanqing's opinion, Chen Yuan's favor must be owed. When the time comes, let all the teenagers in their village join the City Lord's Mansion, especially the girl named Bai Gang, a small Linxing Village, there is a person with a heart far beyond ordinary people, and a talent comparable to a noble child, this village needs to let grandpa pay attention to it, Xiao Wanqing's little abacus in her heart played loudly.

"Okay, that's it. Chen Yuan didn't see Xiao Wanqing's eyes, so he naturally responded. "Brother Yang Xuan, please go back and tell my father and grandfather, I won't go back to lunch today, me and him, uh······ What's your name? Oh yes, Mu Chenyuan went to eat together. Xiao Wanqing turned her head and said to the captain of the group of soldiers who were following her.

"My eldest lady, if you run around again, not to mention the city lord, even the lord will have to pick my skin, for the sake of my little life, you better go back and eat." A young man who looked like a captain pleaded with a bitter face. The corners of Chen Yuan's mouth twitched on the side, and he looked at this scene with some amusement. It seems that this eldest lady has been running around a lot, otherwise the captain of the guard who followed her would not have pleaded with a bitter face as soon as he heard that she was going out.

"You, you, you, don't talk nonsense, just tell my father and them, I'll just go out for lunch, just let them not worry, where is so much nonsense!" Xiao Wanqing raised her eyebrows and scolded, obviously the words of the young man who looked like the captain made her face a little unbearable.

"This ······" The captain was still hesitating. "Well, this ······ Brother Yang, you send someone to inform the city lord, just say that Miss Wanqing and you were invited by me to have a lunch, and you will also go with us, so you don't have to worry about the safety of Miss Wanqing, and the city lord will naturally be much more relieved if he knows that you are also following. Chen Yuan saw that he was really hesitant, so he thought of a compromise.

The young captain's eyes lit up, and he turned his head to look at Xiao Wanqing. "Don't look at me, people ask the guests to have the final say. The latter said angrily, obviously a little angry with the captain of the guard who had refuted his face. The captain laughed a few times, but did not dare to speak.

Chen Yuan looked at the sky and found that the sun had begun to slowly move towards the middle of the sky, calculated the time, and said, "Okay, please ask Brother Yang to send someone to inform the city lord, let's go for the three of us, there are too many people and I don't have enough ingredients to bring." After arranging everything, Chen Yuan took Xiao Wanqing and Yang Xuan to the inn at the foot of Linxing Village to get a bamboo basket and walked out of the city.

Mu Qingfeng has always been at ease with Chen Yuan, and the old Lin Chenyuan, who is infested with fierce beasts, has been playing alone in it when he was ten years old, so he just settled down and stopped asking.

"This is the direction of the city gate, where are we going? Is there a restaurant outside the city? Also, what is this on your back?" Coming out of the hotel, Xiao Wanqing was like a little sparrow chirping, surrounding Chen Yuan and asking this and that. "I have to go outside the city, there is no way to make a fire in the city, and there are two guinea fowl in the back basket. Chen Yuan touched his nose helplessly and explained, he was a little suspicious that this girl who seemed to have countless problems was really the one who had just broken the siege for them and kindly told him the news?

Coming to the outside of the city, Chen Yuan found a place close to the stream, skillfully knocked the two guinea fowl in the basket unconscious, then bled out, washed, took out the internal organs, and then wrapped the two guinea fowl with the soil on the side of the stream, dug a shallow pit, the depth was just enough to put a chicken, put the two chickens wrapped in mud side by side in the pit, covered with a layer of sand, and then collected firewood and made a fire on the pit.

In less than two quarters of an hour, Chen Yuan had already done everything neatly, and all that was left was to wait slowly for the food to be cooked. "You invited me to eat, so I had to make it myself!" Xiao Wanqing said as she looked at Chen Yuan's operation in a daze.

"That's right, these two guinea fowl I caught on the way to Qingqing City, this kind of chicken because it lives in the mountains and forests all year round and feeds on the fungus matsutake mushroom, so the meat is smooth and tender and extremely delicious, which is a very rare delicacy. Originally, I was going to take it back to my family to taste, but you did us a great favor, and of course I will treat you to the best food!" Chen Yuan said as he stirred the fire.

"But your hair hasn't faded, and you're still wrapped in mud, and we haven't prepared seasonings, can you still eat them even if they're cooked?" Yang Xuan asked a key question. "Don't worry, Brother Yang, the natural umami of this chicken doesn't need to be paired with any seasoning, as for the issue of hair removal, let me buy it, and there will be no surprise and magic at that time when I say it in advance." Chen Yuan said with a smile.

"By the way, which person I heard in the morning say that a star lord is expensive or something, do you nobles also have a grade?" Anyway, there is still a long time before the two chickens are fully ripe, Chen Yuan suddenly remembered what happened in the morning, so he asked.

"I'll tell you about this. Yang Xuan said. After all, if people invite you to eat, you just don't do anything, if you don't say anything, it will be too rude, so he took the initiative to explain: "In the Nine Heavens Domain, nobles are divided into two kinds, one is noble and the other is noble. Xungui is a meritorious noble, referring to a person or family who has made outstanding contributions to the Acropolis, the main city, the domain, and even the entire Nine Heavens Domain, and has been officially canonized and given a title by the city lord or domain lord.

As for Jue Gui, it is Meng Yin Ancestor. Ancestors or family members have become nobles, acropolis, main city lords, military and political dignitaries, and their family direct bloodlines have also become nobles. Most of the nobles are the descendants of the nobles, like the eldest lady.

There are a total of nine levels of nobility, ranging from one star to nine stars. The rank of the noble mainly depends on the weight of the canonization, and the noble is born the first level of the noble. That is to say, the direct line of the nine-star lord is the eight-star lord, the direct line of the eight-star lord is the seven-star lord, and so on. Chen Yuan nodded in understanding, and then asked, "Then how to distinguish these nobles?"

"It can be distinguished by the noble badge, this kind of badge was designed by the Nine Great Domain Lords themselves, and no one dares to forge it at all. There are three kinds of badges of honor, gold, silver, and bronze, which symbolize that this title is the domain lord's personal seal, the main city lord's personal seal, and the acropolis lord's personal seal. The level distinction is that one to three stars are the six-pointed star logo, one star, two stars, and three three-star. Four to six stars are the crescent moon signs, the same four stars are a round, and so on, seven to nine stars are the sun, and the level law is the same as the above. In addition, the difference between the lord and the lord, the badge is reflected in the shape, the lord is round, and the lord is triangular. Yang Xuan continued to explain. "This time it's all understood. "Chen Yuan finally understood the hierarchy of the nobles of the entire Nine Heavens Domain.

The three of them chatted like this, and after an hour, Chen Yuan extinguished the fire, removed the sand covering the chickens, covered the ashes of the fire on the two chickens, and heated the residual temperature of the ashes after the firewood burned out for a cup of tea, before the two tightly wrapped chickens were dug out.

The mud that originally covered the surface of the two chickens has been completely dried and hardened under the long baking. Chen Yuan used a wooden stick to break up the outermost layer of mud, and then gently peeled off the last layer of mud that was still attached to the guinea fowl with his hands. Under the exclamations of Xiao Wanqing and Yang Xuan, the soil easily brought down the feathers that had not faded, revealing the white and tender chicken. At this time, the aroma and heat locked in the earth slowly emanated.

Chen Yuan tore off a chicken leg and handed it to Xiao Wanqing, Xiao Wanqing was not too hot, took a big bite, the smooth and tender chicken almost melted in the mouth, and the fresh and mellow feeling burst out of the mouth at once. Xiao Wanqing's eyes lit up, and she sighed heartily, and she couldn't wait to devote herself to the great cause of fighting with chicken legs.

Chen Yuan shook his head with a smile and said to her: "You eat slowly, no one will rob you." As she spoke, she put the rest of her hand in front of her, turned around and opened the second guinea fowl, and gave it to Yang Xuan with a smile.

(The production process is made up by my own brain, it's good to really eat and watch a lively one, and the plot needs to be more serious)
