Chapter 032: By the River

Watching Ye Xiang take a large string of zongzi and hand them to the eunuch to cook, Cao Fu was happy in his heart, Shangxian's words showed that he would come here often, so good, "Then let the eunuch come over and accept the teachings of Shangxian?"

"Don't worry, let's talk about it when I have time. "After speaking www.biquge.info, Hou Ruifeng picked up a rice dumpling made of millet and ate two bites, then nodded, it tasted good, sweet, he hadn't eaten this yet."

Of course, what made him even happier was that the huge row of boxes on the wall was still in place, waiting for him to pick it up.

Cao Fu also eaten, he hadn't eaten breakfast until now in the morning, and there would be a sacrifice at the meeting, so he needed to have physical strength.

"Shangxian, this brown is meat?"

The zongzi brought by Hou Ruifeng was quickly warmed, and Cao Fu asked in surprise, he had never eaten this kind of food, and there were a lot of fruits.

"Well, there's all kinds of flavors. ”

Cao Fu killed one in a few clicks, and then watched the palace maid help him peel off the following one, and said secretly in his heart: It seems that Shangxian still likes meat very much, and he also likes to eat barbecue the most last time, and those seasonings are also for cooking, so that those two sons of evil stole a lot.

The small table couldn't hold so much food, and the palace maid stood aside and exchanged it at any time.

Hou Ruifeng tasted everything and ate it full, this time the pastries were much more refined, at least the bran in the wheat noodles was gone, not like last time, it could be seen directly, and the pastries he saw in Liu Ding were the same, even there were a lot of pastries made of rice, it seems that people are used to this kind of food now, even the royal family is no exception.

Subsequently, Hou Ruifeng threw the hemorrhoids cream he brought to Cao Fu, of course, the handwriting on it was stripped off by him, leaving only the bright medicine tube.

"This is the medicine for you, this is how to use it, remember to wash your hands after use! This is a special soap for you, just wash your hands with this. ”

threw the well-wrapped paper bag in the backpack to Cao Fu, looked at his happy face and said, "I still have paper-making technology here, and you and Liu Ding have a copy." ”

"Papermaking technology. Cao Fu was stunned for a moment while holding the paper bag, and then said happily, "Is it like this in my hand?"

The paper bag in his hand is the kind of kraft paper bag, which is very strong, Hou Ruifeng saw that the vendor bought a lot of them after selling them, and used them together with the plastic sealed bags, so as to save the horse's feet on the packaging bag, which is difficult to explain.

"Not like you, but like this. As he spoke, he pulled out the A4 paper with the technical process and key points printed from the outer pocket of the backpack and gestured, "It's not so white, but it's enough for you to use, it's just that you're going to prepare it recently, and this time is the right time." ”

handed the paper to Cao Fu, looked at him excitedly and looked down to check, and said, "You also have someone here who can make paper, I saw last time that there were not only bamboo slips but also some paper in the study." ”

"Those are tribute papers, which are very cumbersome to make. Cao Fu obviously knew a little bit about it, picked up the paper and flipped it up, not only looking at the technology inside, but also touching the paper, showing surprise from time to time.

After looking through all the techniques, he waved his hand to drive away all the eunuchs and palace maids around him, leaving Ye Xiang behind, "Shangxian, can this method produce so much paper......?

He saw that the final calculation data was a bit exaggerated, although Shangxian said that this kind of paper was a little worse than the one in his hand, but it didn't matter, it was completely different from those papers that fell off the slag after a little rolling, if there was really so much output, wouldn't all the scholars in the world be able to use it?

It's a pity that I have to give Liu Ding a share!

"Almost, I didn't make it either, I found it for you. ”

"Thank you for your kindness to Lonely. Cao Fu sighed with emotion, he knew very well the importance of this technology, otherwise he would not have encouraged the scholar to use more of the paper that had fallen off the slag, if it was really made, then his reputation would reach a new height.

"Ye Xiang, you go to choose a suitable location, and then gather all the papermakers to dig a pond to find bamboo. Cao Fu told Ye Xiang the part of the current preparation, and then asked him to repeat it to see if he remembered it, and then let him go out to handle it.

After Cao Fu finished his instructions, Hou Ruifeng began to clean up the items in the backpack, except for some things that were not very suitable, they were all thrown to Cao Fu and asked him to keep them first, "This is the wine I brought, for you today, these are transparent spirits, these are rice wines, these are fruit wines, these are ...... Uh, these are beers, you don't know exactly. ”

"I've only brought one bottle of each of these wines, so you can taste them first, and I'll teach you how to make them later." ”

There are people and things here, just need him to move his mouth, the materials are all natural, but they are much better than the ones he bought, although they are more expensive in the supermarket, but they are definitely not as good as the special I in the palace, as long as the technology can keep up.

Looking at the various liquors with ceramics, glass, and metal, Cao Fu nodded from time to time, wrote down all the names, and then called the palace maids and asked them to hold a bottle each.

"Don't you use the medicine, when will the event start?" After cleaning up the items, Hou Ruifeng said.

Cao Fu twisted a little, this matter is not good to say to the immortals, after all, it is a dirty thing, "When you use it at night, the sacrifice is about to begin." ”

Then he said the following activities: "Shangxian, at this moment, you have to go to the river to worship, and the activities are also carried out by the river, and then Shangxian will be able to appreciate them one by one." ”

"Okay, let's go?"

"Please. ”

The backpack and all kinds of things were held by the eunuchs and palace maids, Hou Ruifeng followed Cao Fu in a carriage at the gate of the main hall, and ran all the way to the main gate of the palace, where a team of guards was waiting to protect them and rushed out of the palace.

The road has been cleared, and there are quite a few soldiers on both sides, and occasionally some people are watching from the side of the street.

"The road is pretty clean, but it looks like it was recently cleaned, well, there are a lot of small buildings on the second and third floors. ”

This is the first time Hou Ruifeng has seen ordinary people and houses outside the palace, it looks like the countryside when he was a child, but it is much more dilapidated, and the building materials are not good, most of the buildings are wooden and earthen buildings, there are not many bricks and tiles, and they are all green bricks, and there are occasionally a few five-story buildings, but they cannot be compared with the inside of the palace.

The clothes of the people you see on the street are very rough, and you can still see them clearly from such a distance.

"You're still using linen to make clothes, aren't you? There's no cotton available. Hou Ruifeng kept looking around in the car.

Slowly, there were fewer buildings, but there were more people around, and groups of people were hurrying by the roadside, and they all looked at them respectfully.

"The front is the place of sacrifice, the queen and the dog are waiting, what is the immortal...... Is there a taboo?" Cao Fu looked at Hou Ruifeng's curious expression and asked out loud.

Hou Ruifeng hesitated, "There is nothing taboo to be taboo, but you can tell me about the process, I am not familiar with your process." ”

"The immortals only need to stand by Lone's side and worship at the last moment?" Cao Fu said carefully.

"Okay, that's okay. It's just these words, Hou Ruifeng happily agreed.

Cao Fu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, if Hou Ruifeng refused to worship, he would have to use a backup plan, "There are princes in front and behind, and Shangxian and Gu only need to wait for the end." ”

He spent a lot of thought for this sacrifice, and even asked the prince to do it for him, so as to pave the way for future things.

By the river, there are dense figures.

"Long live my emperor, long live. ”

As soon as the two got off the carriage, the crowd in the distance began to salute, and it was the first time Hou Ruifeng had seen this kind of gift.

Waiting for the people on the side to get up, Cao Fu took Hou Ruifeng's arm and moved forward, causing the shock of everyone around him, and then a noisy noise appeared.

Cao Fu and Hou Ruifeng were prepared for this, ignored it, and walked all the way to the river, where there were a lot of sheds, which looked like they were newly built.

And the crowd on the side.

"Look at that big monk! What a strange dress, I heard that he was the one who contributed the treasure to the emperor. "The people around who can stay in Cao Fu's camp are not ordinary people, and the news is naturally well-informed, especially Cao Fu has also released a lot of rumors.

"I also heard that it is said to be a fairy baby, and the prince wanted to see it but was rejected, and he was reprimanded. ”

"Yes, I heard that, too. ”

Then several people discussed the matter.

There was a middle-aged scholar on the side who snorted disdainfully when he heard this, it has been so many years, everyone knows the virtues of the prince, he doesn't look like he will be interested in these heavy treasures, the reprimand is true, not the heavy treasure, it should be something else.

He has also heard of this matter, but the truth of the news inside is not clear, and only one is known, that is, there is a mysterious monk in the palace, no one knows him, no one knows where he came from, but the emperor trusts him very much, and it is said that he has prepared a permanent palace for him, and when the news came out, it really shocked people with hearts.

Listening to the random speculation of everyone in his ears, the middle-aged man didn't say much.

"It is said that the prince wanted to invite this monk and was not allowed. Someone shook his head and sighed, his eyes flashing and his tone unpredictable.

"I've heard that people are going to talk. "There are also people who can't help but say secret information that they think is important, and their voices are low and evasive.

"I've also heard that there are scholars and generals who take the lead. The voice was even lower, and there were soldiers outside, discussing loudly that it was looking for death.

When the middle-aged scholar heard these words, he thought about the monk's outfit for a while, Hou Ruifeng's clothes this time were relatively expensive, so they were very conspicuous here, and the fabric was obviously different from others.

He hesitated for a moment, but still followed behind Cao Fu and Hou Ruifeng from a distance, and after encountering the obstruction of the soldiers, he revealed the token, and he came to the river of sacrifice unimpeded.

Then I saw from a distance that the monk was laughing with the queen, the prince and the king of Qi at the door of a tall shed, and the surrounding officials, scholars, and women were all full of surprise, and their eyes did not leave the left and right of the monk, but they could not get close for the time being.
