Chapter 16: Osmanthus Rice

Half an hour later, Qi Wang Yantao's lunch ended.

Ji Rongjin thought that he would like that dish or ask a few words about the bamboo shoot banquet, but he didn't ask anything, got up and left.

Fang Zhaoyao asked him to rest for a while, drink a cup of tea, and then left, but he couldn't stay, "Your Highness, please go." Hurriedly followed and sent it away.

Everyone is gone, leaving only Ji Rongjin in a daze, isn't the bamboo shoot dish delicious? Looking at the dishes on the table, almost all the chopsticks have been moved, and it doesn't look like it's not delicious! Suddenly, don't pickle it, half of the casserole is removed.

Delicious, but don't want to give a silver bounty? In film and television dramas, rich people will give rewards for eating delicious things, is it a misunderstanding?

After going down the three stairs and not hearing any movement behind, King Qi paused and looked back.

Fang Zhaoyao thought that he had something to order, so he hurriedly bent down respectfully: "Your Highness......" asked with a full face.

"What about people?" Yan Tao's eyebrows frowned slightly.

Fang Zhaoyao was stunned for a moment, then immediately regained his senses, and quickly turned around and shouted, "Jin Niang......"

Ji Rongjin wanted to wait until they were all gone before leaving, and just wanted to find a stool to rest, he heard a call and hurriedly came out, "Uncle Fang, what's the matter?" ”

Condescendingly, his eyes met Qi Wang Yantao - his expression was arrogant and indifferent.

The precious sense of distance made her unconsciously move away quietly and look at Uncle Fang.

"It's Your Highness looking for you."

His gaze had no choice but to move to Qi Wang Yantao again, "Your Highness is called a people's daughter?" ”

King Qi turned around and went downstairs.

"......" didn't know what King Qi meant, Fang Zhaoyao and Ji Rongjin glanced at each other, but they didn't understand.

Whether she understood it or not, Fang Zhaoyao signaled her to hurry up and follow, it was always right to be careful, if one of the nobles was unhappy, it would not be easy to clean up.

The group arrived at the door of the restaurant without saying a word, and Yan Tao got into the carriage.

Kang Tai received the owner's signal and asked Ji Rongjin to get into the car.

Let her get into King Qi's carriage? Ji Rongjin was shocked, the situation was special on the day of the Lantern Festival, what about today? Way? Could it be that King Qi went to the Osmanthus Lane Courtyard?

Ji Rongjin squeezed out a smile of refusal, "Thank you, Your Highness, the people's girl's little donkey is still in the back alley." ”

Kang Tai looked into the carriage, the master leaned on the carriage, sitting casually, there was a hint of impatience between his eyebrows without much expression, and he hurriedly said, "Don't worry, Ji Niangzi, I will let people bring the little donkey to Osmanthus Lane." ”

It's really a drop-by.

But, a prince will take a civilian little lady who only has two sides along the way? Could it be that King Qi still wants her to pretend to be an 'outer room'? With doubts, Ji Rongjin got into the carriage of His Royal Highness King Qi.

The carriage drove out of sight, but Fang Zhaoyao still didn't understand that His Highness actually let a civilian little lady get into his carriage? As one of the chief stewards of the Wenguo Mansion, he is not qualified to ride in the prince's carriage.

Your Highness, this is ......

The Lantern Festival 'outer room' may be known to the Duke of Wenguo, but as a steward of the Duke of Wenguo, Fang Zhaoyao may not know.

He hurriedly asked people to inquire, "Check it out, what's going on?" ”

Sympathizing with the little lady, leading the little lady to settle in the capital, not using the hands of the resources to take advantage of Jin Niang, and even benefiting her food, these are all Fang Zhaoyao's kindness.

If King Qi and Mianniang have something not very good, then his sympathy and kindness will add to the blockage of the Wenguo Mansion, and if the eldest lady in the mansion, Yuan Zizhi, knows, it will be really bad.

Fang Zhaoyao was very anxious, and his subordinates quickly called: "His Royal Highness King Qi has another courtyard to hide in Ji Niangzi. ”

"So coincidentally?" Fang Zhaoyao asked the key, "Who bought the yard first?" ”

"Ji Niangzi."

Then it wasn't that Jin Niang intended to approach His Royal Highness, Fang Zhaoyao breathed a sigh of relief, "King Qi only came back last year, how many times did he live in Osmanthus Lane?" How did you know Jin Niang? ”

The subordinate smiled: "I heard that His Royal Highness returned to the capital from the south and did not go back to the palace directly, nor did he go to the Wenguo Mansion, but went to Osmanthus Lane. ”

"What? Wrong door? Fang Zhaoyao smiled, "How can there be such a thing?" ”

"yes." The subordinate smiled and said, "It's not a mistake to go to the door, I also ate a pot of mutton soup stewed by Ji Niangzi." ”

As if thinking of something, Fang Zhaoyao felt amused, "Later, His Royal Highness King Qi also asked Jin Niang to cook?" ”

"You guessed it." The subordinates laughed.

"It turns out that His Royal Highness also appreciates Jin Niang's cooking skills." Knowing the reason for the two, Fang Zhaoyao was relieved, Jin Niang was average, His Royal Highness King Qi should not take a fancy to her.

There is no relationship between men and women, only food, Fang Zhaoyao is not worried, when Yuan Zizhi, the eldest lady of the house, inquired about him, he did not hide anything and told the little steward who came to inquire.

Ji Rongjin didn't understand, why did His Royal Highness the Venerable King of Qi let a civilian woman sit in his carriage, was there something she didn't know about, she just happened to bump into her, and she wanted to beat her?

is about to arrive home, Qi Wang Yantao has been closing his eyes and recuperating, not even giving a look, let alone speaking.

"Your Highness......" The carriage stopped, and Ji Rongjin shouted softly: "I ......"

Yan Tao opened his eyes suddenly.

He had sword eyebrows and starry eyes, his posture was slender and straight, sitting in the main seat of the carriage, the natural coldness of the superior came to his face, Ji Rongjin was so frightened that his heart jumped, and his back suddenly clinged to the carriage.

A pair of eyes like a fleeing deer, black and white, innocent, innocent and staring at him tightly.

Yan Tao narrowed his eyes, a pair of Danfeng eyes were slightly blind, and his long eyelashes were faintly cloudy, "Don't show your head again." ”

What does "ah......" mean? Ji Rongjin's brain turned quickly, "Your Highness knows that I was being followed again?" ”

Yan Tao raised his eyes, "Go down." ”

"......" hasn't been explained yet, what does it mean?

The man was impatient, and Ji Rongjin was not an annoying person, so he saluted and jumped out of the carriage.

The carriage drove to the next door, and until Qi Wang Yantao entered the door, the gate was closed, and Ji Rongjin did not enter the courtyard.

'Don't show your head again'? She didn't understand what it meant, but when she went out, someone followed her, and the bean sprouts couldn't be sold, so she could only live at home.

When I returned home, I didn't sprout bean sprouts anymore, and in a blink of an eye, the sun was about to set.

Someone knocked on the door, Ji Rongjin opened the door and saw that it was exactly what she thought, it was Aunt Han who was evasive, and asked her to go over to make dinner.

That's right, it's let, not please, there is a kind of naturalness, and this attitude makes Ji Rongjin very angry.

She didn't want to go.

remembered that she was almost snatched away by thieves last time, although King Qi's purpose in saving her was not pure, but after all, she was saved and those people were arrested, and now, she is being followed again, perhaps......

Thinking of this, the fire in her heart suddenly dissipated, Ji Rongjin not only was not angry, but also took the seasoning from home and brought it over, she had to cook a delicious meal for His Royal Highness King Qi tonight.

Can this thigh be hugged? She thought.

The Great Zhou Dynasty seems to be between the ancient Tang Dynasty and the Song Dynasty, limited by all aspects of the material, stir-fried dishes are not common, most of them are mainly steamed and stewed, but the steaming and stewing at this time is not as colorful as modern times, its taste is either salty and heavy, or bland, and the taste is not very good.

Tonight, Ji Rongjin cooked rice, plus three dishes and one soup.

The rice is a mixture of millet with osmanthus, mushroom and meat foam, small yellow croaker, ham slices and pea sprouts, all steamed, and there is a kelp chop soup.

After the millet and a small pinch of osmanthus are steamed, the pot is uncovered, the rice is white, the millet is yellow, the yellow and white are alternate, the appearance is excellent, do not lift your hands, the osmanthus fragrance in the rice comes to the nose.
