Chapter 103: I'll Leave You a Big Bowl!
Nasi Chengzheng was shocked in his heart, but he heard Zhao Xin say slowly again: "However, since this Cui Xiangye is unwilling to wait for death, then I will fulfill him by the way."
Speaking of which, it's time for us to let go and do something big. ”
And Liu Muzhi and the others beside the emperor actually laughed, as if they didn't doubt the emperor's words at all.
That Mr. Liu Muzhi just asked casually: "It seems that Your Majesty already has a strategy for the family?"
The Emperor picked up the wooden basin of crushed sweet potatoes and poured out all the remaining remnants of it into the grinding eyes.
After a while, the crushed sweet potatoes also turned into a white pulp mixed with puree and flowed into a large wooden basin under the stone mill.
Zhao Xin did not answer Liu Muzhi's question, but instructed the palace people to bring the coarse gauze that was washed, and ordered people to build a wooden frame and a cross-shaped horizontal frame.
Then he ordered an iron cable to be used to hang the iron buckle of the loyal position of the cross-shaped crossframe and hang it directly from the beam of the wooden frame.
After that, the four corners of the wide gauze are bolted to the four corners of the cross truss.
At this point, everyone understood what the emperor was going to do, and they began to pour the white pulp from the wooden basin into the gauze pocket together with the puree.
And a wooden basin was also placed underneath.
After that, the emperor ordered someone to hold the four corners of the cross truss and shake the gauze cloth pocket.
The next moment, the white pulp in the cloth pocket immediately flowed out.
Seeing this, everyone couldn't help but show a burst of joy, vaguely knowing that it had finally come to fruition.
Si Cheng even asked smartly: "Your Majesty, are you going to boil it in a cauldron next?"
"What to boil, this is not making soy milk!"
Zhao Xin glanced at him, "If you don't understand, don't pretend to understand." ”
"Hey......
Si Cheng laughed for a while, and he didn't care, what could he care about being scolded by the emperor.
What he cared more about was, how could the emperor understand this?
And what is soy milk?
By the way, it seems that some people in the south use soybeans to grind and make cakes, what is it called tofu, it is said that the taste is fishy and coarse, and the bean rice is still unpalatable, and only the untouchables will eat it.
Is that what Your Majesty is talking about? No, how could the Emperor know about that kind of untouchable food?
Sicheng subconsciously rejected this idea, but he didn't know that he had accidentally missed an opportunity to improve the development process of tofu technology.
On the contrary, he memorized every step that the emperor was doing very carefully, and felt that he had mastered an advanced technology.
If it is used well, it may be of great benefit.
So after laughing, my eyes widened and I looked very attentively.
Also carefully remembering every detail, of course, is Li Yunqing.
He even squatted down carefully to observe the white pulp in the basin and the remaining residues in the cloth pocket.
Zhao Xin ignored Si Cheng, but explained to Li Yunqing: "This is the starch in sweet potatoes, which can be turned into fine powder with a delicate texture after a little precipitation and drying.
After this powder, all the ills of sweet potatoes can be overcome, and there are many ways to eat them. ”
Li Yunqing, Liu Muzhi and others heard this on the side, and their eyes lit up.
Although they also believed that the emperor would not speak in vain, but when the real thing was in front of them, it still felt different.
Li Yunqing couldn't help but lift the side of the wooden basin slightly, and sure enough, he saw that the basin had begun to have a precipitated powdery layer, and the texture was so delicate and snow-white, it was simply not like a thing in the world.
At least Li Yunqing had never seen any kind of food that could compare to it.
Even the finely ground wheat flour that has gone through a lot of processes cannot be compared.
Li Yunqing is already full of confidence in the prospects of sweet potatoes.
Liu Muzhi and the others couldn't help but have their eyes shining, and they muttered in their mouths.
"Treasures, sure enough, treasures......"
"Treasures, of course. ”
Zhao Xin smiled slightly, then pointed to those starch layers and said, "There is such a thing, Zhu Qing, do you think those families will be tempted?"
When Liu Muzhi and the others heard this, their expressions froze.
In fact, they probably guessed that Zhao Xin was going to use sweet potatoes to negotiate with the family, but they thought that they were going to use it in exchange for the family's support.
But now it seems that the emperor wants more.
Otherwise, the emperor would not have gone to such great lengths.
Looking at those sediment layers again, he couldn't help but sigh slightly: "It's a pity." ”
The corners of Zhao Xin's mouth lifted slightly, and he smiled lightly: "It's a pity, not necessarily." ”
"Yes, no matter how good this thing is, it is not as important as the lives of the people. ”
Liu Muzhi nodded slightly.
Yu Qian, Kou Zhunren and others also nodded.
Zhao Xin smiled again when he heard this, it was obvious that Liu Muzhi and the others had misunderstood what he meant.
However, he didn't continue, he had plans, but there was no need to say more for the time being.
Immediately smiled and said: "It's a little early to say this, we still have to eat it in our mouths to know if it's really as good as we thought." ”
When Zhao Xin said this, he couldn't help but feel a little excited, the first delicacy he had personally concocted in this world was finally about to be launched.
Immediately turned his head and asked the waiter next to him: "I asked Tianxiaju to send kitchen utensils before, but can I send them?"
An attendant hurriedly stepped forward and replied, "Your Majesty, it has been sent over, and the third lady and Ku Ding are also waiting outside." ”
"Oh, Sanniang is also here, but it's a good mouthful. ”
When Zhao Xin heard that Qiao Sanniang was also coming, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Since you're here, let them in?"
It's not just Qiao Sanniang who came, but also Li Cunxiao.
"See Your Majesty, Your Highness the Queen!"
As soon as the two of them entered the back garden and saw so many people, even the queen was there, they couldn't help but be stunned.
Then he hurriedly stepped forward to salute.
Queen Su Qingyu was also a little nervous and returned the half-salute.
In addition to marrying the emperor at the beginning, it was the first time she had met so many foreign ministers.
Although as an empress, it is okay for her to meet with foreign ministers at some times.
It's just that she has rarely had such an opportunity all along.
Because not to mention her before, even Zhao Xin couldn't see the ministers in his spare time.
Zhao Xin also felt her nervousness, but didn't make any moves, just quietly asked her to deal with it.
Because this is what she will have to face in the future as a queen.
It wasn't until after these false salutes were over that he waved his hand and said, "Okay, this is not a court, there is no need to be formal." ”
Then he said to Qiao Sanniang: "Sanniang, since you are here, hurry up and put the pot up, and then I will cook a meal for you with the queen personally."
Speaking of which, the two of you can be considered lucky, but Huatian and Xiping are more unlucky, haha......"
Liu Muzhi and the others also suddenly discovered that their group of people was actually not in Yuhuatian and Liang Xiping.
Otherwise, they, the core personnel around the emperor, would have actually arrived.
It's just that Liu Muzhi smiled a little bitterly and said: "Your Majesty, the minister is afraid that Cun Xiaojun will not be able to enjoy the food here, so he should be asked to immediately take someone to Liang Xiping, completely control the Praetorian Guard, and then control the city defense of the Beijing Division!"
As soon as Liu Muzhi said this, Kou Zhunren and the others were also slightly solemn and nodded slightly.
Zhao Xin's eyes narrowed slightly, and he instantly understood that several people should have verified Liu Muzhi's previous guess.
Cui Cen actually left a card outside the city, and I'm afraid that he wants to break the net.
It seems that he has finally realized that if he doesn't struggle, he will have no chance at all. ”
Zhao Xin smiled softly, and the corners of his mouth were slightly helpless.
This helplessness does not mean that he is helpless to Cui Cen, but that he feels helpless that the ending of this matter cannot be perfected after all.
I could have completely moved my swords, but now I ...... No way.
I could only sigh and say to Li Cunxiao: "Cunxiao, after the food is ready, it will be kept for you, Xiping, and Huatian." ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty. ”
Li Cunxiao didn't care, just a mouthful of food.
And for him, it was still wine and meat that were more important.
As for the rest......
He glanced at the pot and guessed that this was the delicacies.
What's that, is it going to be a slurry, it's so fine...... Maybe it tastes good.
Immediately arched his hand and said, "Please leave a big one for the minister!"
Zhao Xin was stunned, then nodded with a smile, "Okay, leave you a big bowl!"
