Chapter 25: Li Ling, King of Qi
When Gao Shiman saw that guy going downstairs, he wanted to talk to Feng Qizhen, but Feng Qizhen's eyes were only staring at Su Jiaxuan, so she had to whisper to Su Qian: "Qizhen is really forgetful, he only cares about talking to Brother Jiaxuan, and ignores me." ”
Su Qian glanced at Feng Qizhen and pulled the corners of his mouth: "This cake tastes good", Gao Shiman saw that he didn't answer the question, and leaned over and said, "Really?" ”
"Really", Su Qian nodded.
"Then if you want to eat it in the future, I'll make it for you" Gao Shiman's eyes were bent into moon buds, and he lowered his voice to Su Qiandao; If it weren't for the fact that there were others at the table, she would have fed the cake in her hand to Su Qian.
Su Qian saw that she was smiling and couldn't see her eyebrows, and her heart was very useful, and she said with a smile: "Eat quickly, the dishes will be cold after a while." ”
She glanced at the dishes on the table and nodded.
How do you know that after a while, Shen Lixing came in: "Heh, pre-Tang, are you all here?" He glanced at Gao Shiman, with a smile on his face, and went to greet Su Jiaxuan and the others, Gao Shiman shouted "Brother Yan" and buried his head in eating vegetables, supporting his ears to listen to their greetings.
It turned out that Shen Lixing was invited by Sun Chenzhong of the household department to eat here today, and he just saw a guy downstairs holding a plate of things and talking to the shopkeeper about Miss Gao, so he went upstairs to take a look, and sure enough, several people he knew were here.
When Shen Lixing learned of Su Jiaxuan's birthday today, he drank a glass of wine with him, said some good things and said goodbye to everyone, and was about to leave, Gao Shiman stopped him and said, "Cousin Yan, there is also a cake here, you can bring it over and eat it." ”
Shen Lixing stopped, Ling'er hurriedly handed over the cake, he took it in his hand and said with a smile: "It's hard to be gracious, I can only smile." Gao Shiman only smiled at him when he heard this, and Shen Lixing nodded to Su Qian again and walked out of the private room.
The guy over there held the cake and found the shopkeeper Wang and said that it was a rare thing brought by Miss Gao, and the shopkeeper took a look at it, and then took it and walked to an upper room. Sitting in that room was the man in white when Gao Shiman was looking through the window before, Qin Yufeng, the son of Qin Wenzhong, a giant merchant in Great Xia. This Daoxiang Mansion is obviously his property, but it is actually shared by him and Li Ling, the king of Qi.
Qin Yufeng made an appointment with Li Ling to talk in the private room today, and the shopkeeper Wang didn't dare to disturb, so he took the cake plate and put it in front of Qin Yufeng and withdrew. Qin Yufeng was talking to Li Ling about Xing, and after only one glance, he continued to talk to him, and when they finished speaking, Qin Yufeng said, "Hey, what is this shopkeeper Wang?" ”
Li Ling glanced at the cake, lowered his head and drank tea, ignoring it.
Qin Yufeng didn't care, picked a piece with chopsticks and tasted it, and said in surprise: "What is this, you can taste it!" After speaking, he pushed the plate of cake in front of Li Ling on the other side. Li Ling raised his eyebrows and glanced at him, tasted it, and then said, "Call the shopkeeper over."
Qin Yufeng called the shopkeeper Wang, and when he came in, he said, "What is this?" Where did it come from? ”
The shopkeeper Wang saw that the two of them were not of different colors, and thought that this thing would not be unpalatable, so he smiled and said: "The second young master of the Su family celebrated his birthday, and the young lady of the Gao Shilang family brought it over, she seemed to tell Erhezi that our food tasted not very good last time she came to the restaurant, and when Erhezi went up to serve today, she asked Erhezi to be more thoughtful today, and also rewarded him with a piece of cake called a cake; Isn't it that you don't dare to eat, send the two masters to see what kind of rare food it is. ”
Qin Yufeng heard that some people said that his restaurant tasted bad, so he said repeatedly: "Tsk, who is this Miss Gao family, who is so stubborn, and actually thinks our food is not delicious?" ”
Shopkeeper Wang didn't dare to speak, Li Ling glanced at Qin Yufeng: "I feel that there have been no new dishes in this building for a few months, and the business of the Drunken Immortal Residence opposite is not much worse than ours." ”
When Qin Yufeng heard this, he pretended to be angry and said: "Shopkeeper Wang, did you hear it, I have been thinking about it these days, but I can't let the other side rob all our business; What about this Miss Gao, let's see where she bought this cake from."
Shopkeeper Wang hurriedly withdrew to find Gao Shiman, who knew that Gao Shiman had already finished eating and dragged Su Qian to hang out, Feng Qizhen didn't want to leave so soon, so he stayed at the table with Su Jiarou to listen to Su Jiaxuan chatting with those people. Shopkeeper Wang came up, and Feng Qizhen only said that Gao Shiman had left.
He returned to the private room and said that Miss Gao had finished eating and left, Qin Yufeng looked at Li Ling and asked him, "Which Gao family?" ”
"It seems to be the young lady of the Gao Shilang family," shopkeeper Wang said carefully.
"You go down" Qin Yufeng has the impression that there is only one concubine in the Gao family, who has always been unknown in the circle of nobles in Beijing, but he didn't expect that he was a tricky tongue, saying that the food in the building tasted bad, and now he has made this food called cake, the taste is really different, could it be that he has some research on eating?
Just thinking about it, when he looked up and saw that Shopkeeper Wang hadn't left yet, he seemed to have something to say, so he smiled and said, "Something else?" ”
"Miss Gao sent a big cake to Lord Shen, it seems to be a whole cake, Lord Shen is eating next door to our private room......" Shopkeeper Wang was busy offering treasures.
Li Ling opened his mouth at this time: "Shen Lixing? ”
"Yes," shopkeeper Wang said again: "I see that Lord Shen hasn't touched the cake yet......"
"You go, let's go and meet Lord Shen?" Qin Yufeng asked Li Ling tentatively.
Li Ling lowered his eyelids and said lightly: "You go."
Qin Yufeng stood up and said with a smile: "Then you eat slowly, I'll come when I go." ”
Qin Yufeng went next door, Ding Shan was guarding outside the package door, went in and bowed to Shen Lixing, and when he came out, he let Qin Yufeng in.
As soon as he went in and saw that Sun Chenzhong was also there, he hurriedly bowed his hand and said, "Lord Sun is also here, I am fortunate to be happy." After saluting each other, Shen Lixing brought Qin Yufeng to his side and laughed: "What kind of wind blew Boss Qin here, could it be that he is here to care about our dissatisfaction with food?" ”
Qin Yufeng saw that there was indeed a food box behind Shen Lixing, so he smiled and said: "Don't hide it from Lord Shen, I ate a piece of cake just now, and the guy said that it was given by Miss Gao, I tasted it and felt that it tasted special, and I heard that Lord Shen also got a whole one, so I came to see what such delicious things look like." ”
When Shen Lixing heard this, he hurriedly took the food box and opened it and pushed it in front of him and said, "Since you said yes, then I will borrow flowers to offer Buddha and give them to you."
What a transparent person he is, he must understand that this Qin Yufeng has taken a fancy to Gao Shiman, this girl Shiman made that Guyuan paste, and this cake must also be a new food she brewed, if it is eaten by this Qin Yufeng, there will only be benefits and no disadvantages in the future.
Qin Yufeng's heart blossomed, and he still said politely: "Lord Shen doesn't have to be polite, this is given to adults by Miss Gao, how can you win people's love in the future." ”
Shen Lixing stared at him with a smile and said, "Really? ”
Qin Yufeng looked at Shen Lixing's posture that you don't want me to give, and hurriedly said, "I want it!" Thank you Lord Shen for cutting your love, I will invite this meal today; That doesn't disturb the two of you to eat, and take the next step. After saying that, he took the food box and wanted to leave.
Shen Lixing said in the back, "Don't forget to give me the food box and go to Miss Gao's place", Qin Yufeng listened and replied loudly: "Lord Shen, don't worry."
Back in the private room next door, Qin Yufeng hurriedly put the food box on the table and opened it, a round cake jumped in front of him, Li Ling glanced at him and said, "I still have some skills, and I even brought the pot." ”
Qin Yufeng said proudly: "That's, who is the master!" Then he leaned over to the cake and sniffed it, "Sweet! Fragrant! Soft! ”
Li Ling came up and slapped him and said, "You think you are the stunner on the bed!" Don't call the cooks to come up. ”
When the cooks came up, Qin Yufeng asked them all to look around the cake and said, "What is this, who of you will do it?" ”
Everyone turned their heads one after another, but no one answered.
Li Ling motioned to Qin Yufeng to let everyone share the food and taste, and all the cooks got a piece each, and they all tasted it slowly. Qin Yufeng said: "How is it?" ”
A dim sum cook wondered: "It looks like a steamed bun, but it is softer than a steamed bun; It looks like a dim sum, and it's more delicious than a dim sum, and the villain has never seen this thing."
Isn't this said in vain, Qin Fengyu glared dryly, and someone answered: "This thing has a layer of burnt yellow on the surface, it doesn't look like it was steamed." ”
Another humanitarian: "This is better than all the dim sum in our building, soft and glutinous, and not too sweet. ”
Li Ling's face was expressionless, Qin Yufeng was only upset when he heard it, and none of the cooks recognized it, so he swept around the people and said, "This thing is called a cake, have you never seen it?" Is there anything that will be done? ”
At this time, one person said, "You can try it."
"How to try it, do you know if it's steamed or fried?" One person choked.
"It must be steamed!"
"Impossible, don't you see that it's scorched here?"
“……”
"Okay, okay, no matter whether it's steamed, fried, or boiled, you can try to make it in the next few days" Qin Yufeng was noisy and had a headache, and waved his hand impatiently: "Go down"
"Yes," everyone said in unison.
After everyone left, Li Ling said, "What do you say? ”
Qin Yufeng thought for a while and said, "This Shen Lixing seems to know the origin of this thing, otherwise he wouldn't have given it all to me so conveniently, and asked me to return the food to Gaofu......"
"Then you can go there in a few days," Li Ling finished speaking, sandwiched a piece of cake, and ate it slowly.
Qin Yufeng also put a piece in his mouth and fed it to his mouth, and said while eating: "Don't say it, the taste is really special, I will leave a piece for my little swallow, she has never eaten it for a while." ”
Li Ling didn't sweep him when he heard it: "You are interested in a singer." ”
"That's it, you think you're all like the one in your house, with a straight face, a regular step, like a wooden man" Qin Yufeng did not show weakness.
Li Ling finally raised his head and glared at him: "She really looks like a wooden person under the bed" When Qin Yufeng heard this, he immediately shut up honestly, dignified King Qi's side concubine, but he couldn't just take it out and laugh at it. Although the king of Qi is not favored, he is also the fifth son of the emperor, and he is named the king of Qi, besides, he knows his cousin too well, and now he hates his mother Yin Concubine Fly Camp Gou, so he does not like him, since he was a child, he has a cold appearance, follows the rules, is proud in his heart, longs for father's love, and his joy and anger are never visible.
Among the princes, his position is a little embarrassing, the concubine is not favored, all the hopes are pinned on the son, and there are a lot of whispers about the emperor in front of him, he never refutes, even the concubine married the daughter of the general Cui Shuanglong as a side concubine for him, he just accepted it silently.
Cui Shi saw that he said little, and he was always trembling in front of him, which made him feel very nervous; But what's the matter, it's just that there is one more person in the house.
