[Please keep in mind the domain name of this site" ", or search in Baidu: Sanlian Literature Network] Wang Jiuzhi followed Feng Wanfu to the Intermediate Court. There are several private rooms here. It was specially left for Master Song. Jin Sheng, who was waiting outside, opened the door and invited them in, and then closed the door again.

Feng Wanfu sat down at the table and pointed to the opposite place.

Wang Jiuzhi only stood still: "What do you call me to do?" ”

Feng Wanfu tasted Fang Cai's dish, put down his chopsticks, and threw out the apprentice who was standing aside and serving him: "Go outside." No one is allowed to come in. ”

The apprentice looked at Feng Wanfu suspiciously, then at Wang Jiuzhi, and went out with a chirp. He leaned over the crack in the door to hear what Feng Wanfu was doing when he mysteriously threw himself out. However, he found that outside the door, he could not hear the voice inside at all. He gave up and sat down at the front of the steps, waiting for Wang Jiu to point it out.

Feng Wanfu made a gesture and asked Wang Jiuzhi to sit down again, and carefully tasted the vinegared cabbage placed in front of him: "Sour and refreshing, it's really good." ”

Finally, Wang Jiuzhi, who was half-seated next to the chair, hurriedly bowed and stood up: "Thank you for the compliment." ”

Feng Wanfu put down his chopsticks and smiled slightly: "I haven't figured out this taste for many years." Don't say it's me, even Luo Zhenyu, Dong Zuobin, and Guo Dingtang can't figure out the subtlety in this. ”

Wang Jiuzhi smiled modestly: "You mention it." It's just Luo ...... They are ......"

Feng Wanfu waved his hand: "Don't stop sloppy with me." The first time I ate the pickled leek flowers you made, I thought it was a little strange. Who is outside directly called to grab the fried tenderloin, why is the fried tenderloin called grabbing, that is your Wang family's unique job, I am just eating for fun, as soon as I eat, the more I suspect that there is a master here. Until yesterday I heard about it. Fu Wang, the master of Lemin Building, has nine fingers, and his right hand is missing an index finger. I wondered if it was you. The eldest son of the Wang family? ”

"What do you say? What I'm not mine? ”

"If you don't understand what I'm saying, it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter if it's you. As long as you dish. Feng Wanfu pointed to the vinegared cabbage in front of him, "Long live I like this dish very much, Luo Zhenyu and the three of them can't make that taste even if they want to break their heads." I had no choice but to invite Master Wang into the palace again. Now that his second grandson is out, I have been serving the imperial meal alone before I leave Beijing. ”

Feng Wanfu didn't pay attention to Wang Jiuzhi at all, and continued to say vigorously: "Do you know that Wang Luo, Dong Guo, and the four imperial chefs, why is Wang Pai the first one?" Because that's what people do! Since the beginning of the previous dynasty, the royal family has served the imperial meal. It's a pity that there is some crooked rule in his family, which makes people unhappy. Master Wang originally had an eldest grandson who took over his errand, and that kid was also very powerful, just this, the first time he made this vinegared cabbage, he served it, and he applauded again and again after eating it.

Luo Zhenyu specially asked him to serve the concubine Niangniang and the first eighteen princes' mothers and sons' meals. That thing without salt and oil, if you have to eat it for three years, who doesn't get tired of it? Making a nursing mother and child meal is the most headache. But that kid did it, and he did it well. But then one day, someone came over and said that the eldest son of the Wang family had put salt in the diet of the nurse mother and son, and the milk of the nurse and son was not good, which affected the eighteen princes.

The eldest son of the Wang family suffered something, was kicked out, and was also taken to a finger. At that time, everyone thought that the eldest son of the Wang family was greedy for Gong Li, and later ......"

Listening to Feng Wanfu's narration, Wang Jiuzhi's train of thought quickly returned to when he was a child.

Grandpa led the eight-year-old into the imperial dining room. Like an apprentice, he began to wash and chop vegetables, and the rest of the time, under the supervision of his grandfather, he had to recite things that were not relevant to cooking. Later, when he made milk soup for the prince's nurse and son for the first time, he understood his grandfather's intentions.

At the age of twenty-five, he was rewarded by the current emperor Zhaoning for a dish of vinegared cabbage. He clearly remembered that Zheng Er made eggplant that day. Emperor Zhaoning likes to eat eggplant made by Zheng Er, that day, Master Luo let himself make vinegared cabbage, but he didn't expect Emperor Zhaoning to praise his cabbage, and also rewarded himself with one or two silver baskets, two horses and three shuttles. Precisely, Zheng Er, who entered the eggplant that day, didn't get anything.

At the age of twenty-five, because of the reward of Emperor Zhaoning, he began to be responsible for the meals of the eighteenth prince's mother and son. Master Luo asked him to stutter attentively, because the biological mother of the eighteenth prince, Concubine Shun Niangniang, although she has a medium status in the palace, but there are three princes under her knees, and said. This errand is done, and I will let myself do it at the next year's grace feast.

He really stammered very carefully, changing the way of cooking every day, thinking about making those mothers and children have good milk. He has no other way than to become an imperial chef as soon as possible.

In his family, there is an unwritten rule that all children and grandchildren who have not officially become imperial chefs are not allowed to leave their names and enter the ancestral ancestral hall. My father and second uncle died unexpectedly due to illness, and only the names of the order were left on the tablet - Wang Da, Wang Er. Whenever he couldn't stand his grandfather's harsh reprimand, his mother always pointed to his father's tablet with tears in her eyes. At that moment, he will pick himself up again.

Unexpectedly, his stammering ended up sending him to the eighteenth floor of hell. On that day, the steward eunuch in front of Concubine Shun Niangniang sent back his stewed crucian carp soup. After tasting it, I realized that there was salt in it.

"If it weren't for the concubines looking at those nurses and sons, I don't know when you will be fooled!"

Put salt! How could he? Nurses and babies who want to promote lactation cannot eat salt. Everyone knows this. He argued that he didn't do it himself! Except for Master Guo, no one pleaded for himself. Because he courted for himself, he saved his life, lost the index finger of his right hand, and was thrown out of the palace.

Feng Wanfu glanced at Wang Jiuzhi's expression and continued: "Poor, Master Wang is a lot old, and he has to come out to serve the imperial meal in order to maintain the Wang family's family business. For so many years, others have not talked about the eldest grandson, and the queen doesn't know how many tears have been shed for him. ”

Feng Wanfu wiped away his tears. He noticed that Wang Jiuzhi's hands were clenched, and the green tendons on the back of his hands had burst out. He knew that he was enduring it.

"I found out later. It was someone who framed the eldest son of the Wang family. ”

He thought about it in his wandering days. He made the masters in the imperial dining room jealous. Also, the first time he paid homage to the imperial meal, he was rewarded with so many things. followed by making meals for the prince's mother and son, because it was done well, the prince also ate well, and was rewarded several times by the concubine.

Feng Wanfu looked at Wang Jiuzhi's pale face and gently spit out a few words: "Guo Dingtang." ”

"It's him!" Wang Jiuzhi couldn't hold back any longer. He has thought about it countless times, he has always spoken ill of Master Dong to himself; I also thought about Master Luo, who asked himself to make meals for the mother and son. However, he never thought that he was the only Master Guo who interceded for him after his accident.

Feng Wanfu smiled sarcastically, "Back then, he asked for you." He thinks that if he intercedes for you, no one will suspect him. However, he was the first to dig it up. As everyone knows, he was just used as a gun back then! ”

"Who's that?"

"Concubine Shun did it herself!"

The news heard from Feng Wanfu's mouth shocked Wang Jiu a lot. Shun Concubine Niangniang herself? She was willing to sacrifice her son's life? A month after he was kicked out of the imperial dining room, the eighteenth prince died.

"Why?" Tiger poison doesn't eat children, she can do it. He had seen Concubine Shun Niangniang twice. Graceful and tender, her voice is in a Wu language, which is very moving. At that time, she was giving birth to the eighteenth prince, and she had a difficult birth. The imperial doctor has to give up the child, she insisted on giving birth, how can she ...... How can it?

Feng Wanfu smiled: "The matter of the harem, how can you talk about ordinary people." You've been in the palace for a long time. Concubine Shun Niangniang is young and beautiful, proud of the emperor, and gave birth to three princes in a row, which attracts envy. She has been looking for an opportunity to solve the concubine An who caused her difficult birth, and at this time, she learned that the meal of the eighteenth prince's mother and son was secretly salted. Besides, the eighteenth prince's health is not good, and the imperial doctor also said that she doesn't have a lot to live, so if she doesn't make good use of this opportunity, when will she be able to get a game? Concubine An is down. Concubine Shun became Concubine Shun, but Guo Dingtang is still the fourth imperial chef, because your grandfather, Master Wang is out of the mountain. ”

"That Shun Concubine...... No...... Concubine Shun...... She's ...... now."

After that, she could not give birth to a son, and her grace faded. But she has a flexible mind and puts the second child. The sixteenth son of the emperor gave the concubine Niangniang as a son. The concubine always said in front of Banzai that she would change the sixteenth prince as the crown prince, and the emperor was also tempted, and the prince's life was not easy! ”

Wang Jiuzhi looked at Feng Wanfu: "Why are you telling me this?" ”

"Huh." Feng Wanfu looked miserable, "Do you think I'm what others said, suing the old man and giving money to return to my hometown?" That's just me saying it nice and saving some face for myself. To tell you the truth, I was kicked out too. was driven out by the sixteenth son of the emperor. ”

Wang Jiuzhi looked at Feng Wanfu in a complicated manner. Feng Wanfu was brought back to Beijing after a southern tour in Banzai. His cooking skills are not high, but he is good at pickling side dishes, and pickling leek flowers is his specialty. He has also looked at it countless times, pondered it for many years, and only now has he made a little progress. Feng Wanfu has very little chance of paying tribute to the emperor, so he is careful to behave in the imperial dining room, do things carefully, and not offend anyone. But even such a man who sees the wind and rudder will be driven out?

Feng Wanfu said self-deprecatingly: "Long live is sick, and the sixteenth prince is also tired of filial piety. The emperor ordered the imperial dining room to make some small dishes and send them over. The prince asked me to make some leek flowers and send them, saying that the sixteenth prince loves to eat the leek flowers I made on weekdays. I saluted. Who knew that after the sixteenth prince ate leek flowers, he immediately had a rash all over his body. The imperial doctor investigated, and it was my leek flower that had an accident. This matter is in an uproar, saying that the prince hates the sixteenth prince or something, and finally it comes to some messy things. You also know that the crown prince is not treated well by the emperor, and the sixteenth prince is getting stronger because he follows the concubine. I thought I'd be finished now, but then I don't know what it was, saying that my leek flowers were caused by the food of the Sixteen Princes. Fortunately, it was sent by the concubine after the prince asked me to send leek flowers, so it was over. I just took my life and was kicked out of the imperial dining room. In fact, it was just a trick by the concubines to frame the prince. ”

Wang Jiuzhi didn't speak. He didn't want to get involved here, it was too complicated.

"If you can go back, go back. When I came out, I looked at Master Wang, who was very sick and had been lying in bed since last winter. Your mother...... Your mother isn't having a good time either. After your accident, someone probably came to the door and said something, and his eyes were already blind from crying. ”

*

Wang Jiuzhi's life experience has been revealed. The royal chef family ~ vinegared cabbage is his finished product!

As for Wang Luo Dong Guo in the imperial dining room, everyone is probably familiar with it, forgive me for naming me an idiot!
