Chapter Twenty-Six: The Peppers of the Imperial Garden
Feeling the coolness of the evening, Zhu Youzhen sighed: "I really want to eat hot pot, but if there is no chili pepper in the hot pot, there is no soul." ”
Chili pepper? What is the prince talking about? Ke'er asked suspiciously.
Zhu Youzhen said casually: "It is a plant with alternate leaves, cup-shaped calyxes, long finger-shaped and curved fruits, green when unripe, and red or orange when ripe." ”
This kind of boring and generic popular science can be said casually, all thanks to the time travel, and the books I have read in my previous life have impressed me a lot.
But now it's a bit like a memory flashback, that is, I can't remember it if I think hard, but I can say it casually.
This experience should be understandable to many people, sometimes a song wants to sing and can't remember the lyrics, but one day it can be sung casually.
introduced the appearance of chili peppers, but Zhu Youzhen didn't think Ke'er knew.
Now the whole Ming Dynasty wants to find chili peppers, and I'm afraid that they have to go to Guangzhou.
"This kind of plant that the prince said, the slave seems to have seen it."
Ke'er Zou frowned and thought for a while, then suddenly shouted, "The slave remembered that there is this kind of flower called chili pepper in the imperial garden, which is red and colorful, and the shape is quite similar." ”
Imperial Garden has chili peppers? Then you can eat fried pork with chili, hot pot, spicy chicken and other dishes that require chili peppers.
After sucking a mouthful of saliva, Zhu Youzhen hurriedly pulled Ke'er and said, "Hurry up and take me to find it." ”
The allure of chili peppers is too great, and in my previous life, I was not spicy or happy, and now I can't do without this good thing.
The group rushed to the Imperial Garden, but after crossing an intersection, they were stopped by Tan Jing.
Tan Jing gasped and said, "The emperor is about to go to the Miaoqin Palace to see His Royal Highness King Xin, where is His Royal Highness King Xin?" ”
Zhu Youzhen was still thinking about eating a hot pot at night, and said anxiously: "Let my brother wait, I'll go back when I go." ”
Tan Jing grabbed Zhu Youzhen and said with a wry smile: "His Royal Highness the King of Letters, how can there be any reason to let the emperor and others in this world, you should go to see the driver with the minions." ”
At this time, the dragon guard of honor came, and the Emperor of the Apocalypse, Zhu Youxiao, said curiously: "Brother Zhen'er, where are you going in a hurry?" ”
Zhu Youzhen arched his hand casually and said mysteriously: "Brother Huang, you wait, my brother will go and get something." The imperial brother is eating in the palace today, and the younger brother himself cooks. ”
"Brother Jian can actually cook." Zhu Youxiao was slightly surprised.
"Brother Huang will find out later."
"Then I'll go and get it with Brother Zhen."
Zhu Youxiao, who has just come of age, is still childlike, and he also finds it interesting when he hears the words, and wants to go along.
But his dragon was carried too slowly, Zhu Youzhen took two steps and said dissatisfiedly: "Brother Huang, this person is carrying things too slowly, you better come down and walk, you can also exercise." ”
Zhu Youzhen knew that his imperial brother valued family affection, so he was not afraid, and directly boarded the dragon in two steps and dragged Zhu Youxiao down, which frightened the eunuch next to him.
You must know that there are many rules in the palace, and this rule is not only for the palace maids and eunuchs, but also for the emperor to be controlled by countless rules.
Zhu Youxiao's rules are so boring on weekdays, but today he was dragged down by his younger brother and walked in the palace alley, but he suddenly felt that something had been broken.
This kind of thing has made him bound for too long, so long that he is used to it, but today, it made him instantly refreshed, and his heart suddenly brightened.
Zhu Youzhen pulled his brother and walked quickly to the Imperial Garden, and Zhu Youxiao behind him was already tired and out of breath.
"Brother Huang, I didn't say you, your body is too bad, Ke'er is better than you." Zhu Youzhen said dissatisfied.
Ke'er next to him was frightened and quickly knelt on the ground.
How can she be compared to the emperor as a little palace maid.
"Get up." Zhu Youxiao motioned for Ke'er to get up, glared at Zhu Youzhen and said, "Brother Zhen'er, you are becoming more and more open-mouthed." ”
Zhu Youzhen grinned, stepped forward and hugged his brother's shoulder, "I am your own brother, how can there be so many rules for the family to speak." ”
This sentence made Zhu Youxiao's heart soften, and he sighed: "My brother's health is really not good, and even the child he gave birth to is sick and difficult to survive." If this continues, I can only entrust Daming to you. ”
Zhu Youzhen hurriedly waved his hand and said, "I don't want it, whoever loves this mess wants it." ”
"What do you mean by a mess? This is the Jiangshan Sheji of the Ming Dynasty, don't you want to be the emperor? ”
"Brother, I really don't want to be an emperor." Zhu Youzhen said with a smile: "Brother Chen's liver is not good, and the emperor really doesn't move his liver." ”
"Liver?"
"Staying up late hurts the liver, how can you diligently correct and deal with government affairs if your liver is not good? So the liver doesn't move. Zhu Youzhen explained.
"Hahahaha, it's a good liver to move. I don't move. ”
Zhu Youxiao laughed and liked this word very much.
"Found it." Zhu Youzhen really found chili peppers in a corner of the Imperial Garden.
"This thing is a strange flower and grass that Guangzhou paid tribute to the year before last, what are you looking for it?" Zhu Youxiao's face was full of doubts.
"Brother Huang, this thing is very useful, I'm afraid you won't be able to do without it in the future."
"What is the use of the great heaven?"
"Eat."
Zhu Youxiao took one off, and after seeing Zhu Youzhen nodding, he put it in his mouth and took a bite.
As soon as it entered his mouth, he felt a spicy sensation permeating his mouth, and then it became more and more spicy, like a flame in his mouth, and he couldn't spit it out, and the irritated Zhu Youxiao burst into tears and snot.
Zhu Youzhen's stomach hurt when he was laughing next to him, and he looked like he had succeeded in his prank.
The eunuchs next to him hurriedly fetched water and fed it to Zhu Youxiao, and they were in a hurry for a while, and their mouths felt better.
"Okay, you guy, you dare to tease me."
Zhu Youxiao was furious, broke a branch and rushed up to fight, Zhu Youzhen shouted and ran away, and the two brothers made a fuss in the imperial garden for a while before they quieted down.
When night fell, the sound of insects sounded in the imperial garden, and the cool night breeze blew a little cool on people.
Zhu Youzhen picked the chili peppers and returned to the Qingong Palace, Zhu Youxiao walked to his side, and the two brothers chatted while walking.
After a fight, Zhu Youxiao was in a good mood and sighed: "Since I ascended the throne, I have never been so happy. ”
Zhu Youzhen looked at the young Zhu Youxiao, who was probably a bitter senior party in the future, but at this moment he was going to rule the Ming Dynasty.
"There are many rules in the palace, and the courtiers have always been cautious and cautious, but they can be cautious. But after the soul wanders too empty, I understand that the most important thing for people to walk in this world is precisely these rules. Zhu Youzhen said.
"The least important thing is the rules?"
Zhu Youxiao savored these words, and after a while, he breathed a sigh of relief, and his eyes brightened a little.
The night wind was cold, and several eunuchs sent gorgeous cloaks, and Zhu Youxiao waved them to retreat.
"What you did in the fourth archway today, Jinyiwei has already reported to me." Principal Zhu You sighed, "The nobles and the country are resting together, and I have many rewards, but they still compete with the people for profit, and they are really becoming more and more lawless." ”
