Chapter 188: Skillful Imperial Meal

Huai Sleeve shook his head with a smile and explained: "This is not a serious breakfast, I watched you talk all night, you must be hungry in the morning, so I will cook some porridge first, add some supplies to your belly, and you will not panic when you hold the pen." ”

Chang Ning smiled slightly, looked into the tray, and saw only a plate of tender green cabbage hearts and a plate of yellow mud snails. I couldn't help laughing: "Just eat this?" You're really going to save money for the royal brother! ”

Kangxi washed his hands and face, turned his face and smiled: "You don't know, I really feel that the taste is fresh and tender when I eat this Tao these days, and it is very comfortable." ”

After that, Kangxi said to Huai Sleeve: "Is there still porridge and rice?" Add a bowl to Prince Gong to share with me. ”

"Also, the slave and maid will go and fetch it." After saying that, he turned around and went out, and after a while, he added another pair of dishes and chopsticks. Chang Ning was a frequent visitor to Qingning Palace, never polite to Kangxi, and sat opposite to eat.

A fragrant cabbage heart is chewed in the mouth, crisp and crisp, and the thin veins burst out with fresh juice, as if smelling the smell of newly sprouted young grass after the rain.

Prince Gong swallowed a mouthful of porridge into his stomach, and immediately felt warm and ironed, extremely comfortable, and hurriedly probed his chopsticks into the yellow mud snail in another plate.

The yellow mud snail is not big, but it is very clean, a grain like a translucent Xiuyu has a faint ink color inside, it is crispy and tender in the mouth, and it is also a hammer for pressing rice.

Changning added two bowls of porridge in a row, and when he put down the chopsticks, the coriander heart and yellow mud snail on the plate entered Changning's Wudao Temple like a wind and clouds.

Kangxi and Huai Sleeve looked at Chang Ning's eating appearance and couldn't help laughing.

After using the meal, Chang Ning took the mouthwash tea brought by the eunuch and cleared his mouth, nodded with satisfaction: "It's really comfortable, I didn't sleep last night, this time there is such a meal, the spirit seems to be back again, it turns out that the green vegetable porridge and rice can also be made so delicious." ”

Kangxi smiled: "This is the best, I still have something to discuss with you in a while." ”

Huai Sleeve put away the dinner plate, left Kangxi and Chang Ning to continue to discuss political affairs, sent the dinner plate back to the imperial dining room, found a small shoulder basket and a small shovel, and went to the small hill behind Qingning Palace.

As soon as he got out of the palace, he saw Suo Etu walking towards this side with a music box in his arms from a distance, and Huai Sleeve knew that he had come to Kangxi every day to report the recitals handed over by the magistrates of various places, so he went straight to the back.

When it was time to prepare a serious breakfast, he looked at the small basket with his sleeves, which was also full of baskets, stood up happily, wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead, and said with a smile: "Today's harvest is really not small." ”

Back to the imperial dining room, opened the small porcelain jar and looked at it, the soup was also cooked just right, served from the fire with a clean towel pad, served in the porcelain cup of Ru kiln and warmed, boiled the yellow rice porridge over a small fire, added some fresh wild vegetables that had just been picked back, boiled almost, put the fire into the bowl, and a few fresh side dishes, called two small internal supervisors to take it together and walked towards the Qiushui Pavilion.

It turned out that most of Kangxi's office and ministers were in the Qiushui Pavilion next to Qingning Palace every day, and because most of them had to review and rest at night, they ordered the eunuch to move part of the folds to the east wing of Qingning Palace, and they rested there when they were tired.

When the little inner supervisor with the food plate in his arms walked into the Qiushui Pavilion, Suo Etu was standing on the ground doing something.

Kangxi sat behind the dragon book case and listened attentively, Chang Ning stood beside him and frowned slightly, with a solemn expression, he had never seen Chang Ning so serious, and couldn't help but look at him twice.

Who knew that Chang Ning actually noticed that someone was looking at him, and when he turned around, he happened to meet Huai Sleeve's gaze, so he stuck out his tongue and grimaced at her, which looked very much like Suo Etu who was chattering next to him, Huai Sleeve couldn't help but hook his lips, and forced a smile to go to the round table.

Kangxi saw that his sleeves had been wrung out and the handkerchief was standing aside, ready for breakfast, so he stretched out his arms and walked towards the round table.

Suo Etu glanced sharply at the food on the table, frowned and said: "The emperor has worked tirelessly for state affairs all day long, how can he eat so simply, he can't even see a little oil star, it's too inappropriate!" ”

Kangxi ignored Suo Etu's statement, picked up the chopsticks to eat, and said: "I don't think it's anything, but I feel quite refreshing and comfortable eating these in the past few days." ”

Suo Etu continued: "The emperor's dragon body needs to eat more lean vegetables in order to ensure the supply, and I hope that the emperor will focus on the health of the dragon body." ”

Kangxi didn't want to talk more, and ate silently, Suo Etu seemed to have a reason, and talked endlessly about the way of gluttony. What's more, even Su Dongpo's "Gluttony" said: Cover the beauty of aggregates to support my gluttony. All moved out.

With his sleeves hanging down his face and serving Kangxi wholeheartedly, Kangxi ignored him because he respected him as an old minister, and Suo Etu became more and more pretentious when he saw this.

Chang Ning couldn't see it for a while, and was about to speak, when he saw Imperial Doctor Zhang walking in from outside with a medicine box, and knew that it was the time to ask for a pulse every day. Imperial Physician Zhang saw that Kangxi was eating, so he waited in the foyer outside.

Chang Ning's black eyes turned around, and he smiled at Imperial Doctor Zhang outside and said, "Morning Imperial Doctor Zhang!" Today seems to have come earlier than usual. ”

Imperial Physician Zhang also bowed his hand to Chang Ning and said, "Prince Gong is early!" Unfortunately, I thought that the emperor's dinner would be late, but I didn't expect it to be in time, it seems that tomorrow will have to be earlier. ”

Chang Ning said with a smile: "Hehe, Long Live Lord is now served by a different person, and he is much more diligent than before!" ”

Imperial Physician Zhang said repeatedly: "Yes, yes, from the emperor's meals in the past few days, the old ministers have already noticed one or two. With that, Imperial Physician Zhang smiled and glanced at the sleeve standing behind Kangxi.

Kangxi was originally a little impatient when he heard Suo Etu's mouth frothing at the mouth, and when he heard Chang Ning and Imperial Physician Zhang seemed to be discussing his meal, he interrupted Suo Etu's "gluttonous theory" and asked, "Chang Ning, Imperial Physician Zhang, what are you two talking about?" ”

Chang Ning and Imperial Physician Zhang heard Kangxi's questioning and hurriedly walked over. Chang Ning replied: "Just now, Imperial Doctor Zhang praised Long Live Lord's dietary conditioning in the past few days is much better than before. ”

"Oh?" Kangxi smiled and looked at the food on the table and said, "Just now, Master Suo also said that the ones I eat are too simple and not easy to nourish my body. ”

Imperial Physician Zhang glanced at it, but shook his head with a smile and said, "The emperor is now eating these are all the best choices, just say that the ones in this bowl, at a glance, you can see that it took a lot of thought." ”

Kangxi heard this, picked up a turquoise vegetable root in the porridge with chopsticks and asked, "What did the imperial doctor say?" You don't say I haven't noticed, what is this? I've never seen anything like it before. ”

Imperial Physician Zhang took a closer look and said: "That's right, Wei Chen just looked at it and felt like it, but it felt incredible, and now when I look closer, it is really a defeat sauce grass."

"Defeated sauce grass?" Kangxi raised half of his sword eyebrows and listened to Imperial Doctor Zhang continue with interest.

"This dish is also known as yellow flower dragon sprouts, cool in nature, slightly bitter in taste, known as 'root bitter flower fragrance', can clear heat, bright eyes, anti-inflammatory, diuretic, stomach, sweating, nourishing blood, defeat fire, cough and many other benefits, is a rare defeat of fire cool products, is suitable for the emperor to eat."
