Chapter 438: Hard Meal

Emperor Li Shimin is also a person with many sons and grandchildren, but his blessings are a little insufficient, and it seems that they are all used in the position of the emperor.

However, even if it is an emperor, there are many harems, so there is no way to give birth to a child for every harem woman.

Thinking of the women in the harem, when the emperor dies, she may have to become a nun for the rest of her life, and there is no so-called freedom, but there should be no problem with eating, and the Tang Dynasty will be strong for more than a hundred years.

"It's almost the New Year."

Empress Eldest Sun said suddenly.

Talking to these great figures in history, Fan Jingjing will feel very tired, and always feel that what these people say is completely different from what she thinks in her heart, and she must find a way to judge which aspect is true and which aspect is false, after all, sometimes, what people say counts, but what they think in their hearts is completely different ideas.

It's just that there is enough reason to let people decide what should be done and what should not be done, especially when wise emperors and empresses do things, often not as they please, but depending on what they should do in this situation.

So judging by their appearance, what they will do is sometimes more accurate than judging their heart, but if this matter has nothing to do with the existing environment, then it depends on the mood of the other party.

Fan Jingjing is very lazy, most of the time she is unwilling to guess, and even very much wants others to revolve around her mind.

She knows things that others can't, so she has a great degree of letting others revolve around her.

When others figure out Fan Jingjing's thoughts, Fan Jingjing will find a way to do something else.

Let the other party continue to be confused, the eldest grandson queen is very sincere, and a lot of food cooked by the imperial kitchen is placed on the table.

The food cooked by the imperial kitchen has been greatly improved during this time, and it is estimated that the children who returned to the palace after eating and drinking in the Fan family manor discussed the problem of eating with their mothers, thinking that the imperial kitchen's meals were not available and fully met their needs.

contributed to the great reform of the imperial kitchen meals, and the meals of the Fan family manor are not difficult in themselves, but they make higher use of ingredients and spices.

When a large number of spices entered the Fan family manor and the palace, it brought great taste enjoyment to the Fan family manor and the palace.

The spices that the palace can get, in addition to the ones that can be bought on the market, the most important thing is the contribution that belongs to the Fan family manor, these contributions, Fan Jingjing did not specially bring to the palace, but through these rewards distributed to these princes and princesses, and these rewards were given to them when they took them back to the kitchen, they could feel very proud.

In fact, the reward given by Fan Jingjing was enough for the emperor's family to eat.

Of course, there are not only the emperor's family in the palace, there are many people who serve the emperor, and they will more or less steal some food, but because the quantity is limited, and spices are expensive items, they don't dare to eat too much, after all, if the emperor can't eat what he wants to eat in the palace, he will be angry, and in the eyes of the emperor, the chef is not very important.

Most of the imperial kitchens prioritized the needs of the emperor.

In fact, they also feel very depressed, because the prince and the princess are responsible for bringing these spices in, they have lost the right to purchase, lost the power to purchase, they have no way to turn a dollar into a dozen yuan, and then write it into the accounts of the palace, for the people who work in the palace, these additional expenses are their biggest source of income, once the source of income is gone, the work mood is naturally not very high.

But the mood of the work is not very high, they don't dare to mess up the work, once the work of the palace is messed up, it is not only the job that is lost, it may be their lives.

What was able to be done well in the past cannot be done well now, just because it can't make money, and this reason will not be accepted by the emperor.

Although the status of working in the palace is very high, there are many additional benefits, but the most troublesome thing is that once there is a problem during the work period, it is likely to be the consequence of losing your head, but there are also many additional benefits, once you have a reputation, once you can retire from the palace.

Doing business outside will be very good, many dignitaries will eat the reputation of the imperial chef very much, with the reputation of the imperial chef to do business, even if you don't cook in person, you can make the whole restaurant business very good.

For the imperial chef, their work is not in danger of the imperial doctor, once the imperial doctor is not cured, his own object is likely to lose his life, and the imperial chef does not eat well, for the emperor, it is rare to want to cut off most of the head, the emperor does not particularly care about the food, even if the taste in the harem is different, but it is very easy to deal with, as long as the daily food does not get worse, or worse, most of them will feel that it should be caused by others, and what they have to do is to find out the root cause of the struggle.

The level of cooking is generally stable, and they don't have any opinions, because what the imperial kitchen can make seems to be fixed, until the spices enter the imperial kitchen of the palace, bringing about a big change, so that the imperial kitchen has to step up its efforts, otherwise their work may be lost.

Since inviting a lot of imperial concubines to the recreation area of the Fan family manor and coming back after enjoying it, their dissatisfaction with the imperial kitchen has increased a lot, not to mention that the Fan family manor has provided spices, if there are spices and the emperor can't make the emperor, and the queen's ladies are satisfied with the food, then they don't want to live in the future.

It can be said that Fan Jingjing's reform of food has brought great trouble to the imperial kitchen, so that they have to start research and innovation from a relatively stable state, and it has also brought about the reform of Datang food, after all, the research results of the imperial kitchen are imitated by everyone, once the imperial kitchen has a new idea, some restaurants affected by the imperial kitchen will have new ideas.

Fan Jingjing was left to eat with this big family, which was a very uncomfortable thing for her, because she couldn't take her children with her, she could eat wherever the chopsticks pointed, and she could eat whatever she wanted, and what her children wanted to eat had to go through the emperor and empress's inquiries before they could eat by themselves, and even the emperor and queen would take out their own treasures and give them to these children, these children were already able to eat some liquid food with a little substance, but they bit very slowly, Fan Jingjing still let them eat some pureed products, Fan Jingjing didn't know herself, anyway, there should be some flavors to be able to eat.
