Chapter Ninety-Nine: Mutton Steamed Buns?
The territory of the Han Empire went all the way to the west, northwest-west, the wind blows the grass and sees the cattle and sheep, and the people's food is naturally based on beef and mutton, a bowl of clear soup mutton and a bowl of noodles, you can eat for thousands of years without getting tired.
Many people believe that Chang'an City, as the capital of the Han Dynasty, has to pay attention to a little bit of food, a little bit of gentleness, and a little elegance in terms of how to eat or how to eat, so there is a so-called food culture.
Of course, that's all for later.
As far as the current Han Empire is concerned, Yang Chuan found that, in general, the eating style in the Guanzhong area still adheres to the essence of the 'Central Plains Food Culture' dominated by Henan and the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River, with steaming, boiling, stewing, roasting, and broiling, and the overall is soft and rotten.
As for the flavor snacks of Liu Bang's hometown of Han Gaozu Liu Bang, the fresh fragrance in Shu, the strange fragrance in the Western Regions, and the meat fragrance in the north have basically become an important part of Chang'an's food.
The tiara, of course, is a 'beneficial supplement'.
Lying on Mazhazi, Yang Chuan seemed to be closing his eyes to recuperate, but he kept thinking in his heart, what kind of dish should this Zhang soup, which is not oily and salty and has a hob meat, be made?
Oily noodles? biangbiang side? Chang'an gourd head? Meat buns?
Neither.
Then, make a lamb steamed bun.
As for cooking a bowl of single-handed, dry-pulled, mouthful soup or water siege, in fact, it all depends on Zhang Tang's own wishes, after all, even the best chef can't determine the taste of the guests......
……
Zhang Tang was a meticulous person, he carried out detailed examinations, checks, and records hundreds of corpses, so that the dozen bundles of bamboo slips that Yang Chuan had managed to accumulate were almost exhausted.
"This wound was caused by a horse lance, and it penetrated one foot and seven inches."
"This man's fatal wound was a cut throat, the wound was one inch and two inches, and a knife was fatal."
"The wound was triangular in shape, and the blood loss was too rapid and excessive, causing it to eventually die......"
The area of Guanzhong after the autumn is especially sultry, and those corpses have already had a very rushing taste, if it weren't for the people of Chang'an City to 'solve the case', Yang Chuan would have wanted to pile them up and burn them all in one go.
Zhang Tang didn't seem to dislike it at all, he still squatted down from time to time, pulled open the wounds on some corpses, poked his fingers in and pulled them out, and observed the bright sun for a while, and he didn't know what he wanted to see.
The process is very dull and boring.
Yang Chuan lay on the mazhazi, put a big hat on his face, and slept beautifully, and when he woke up, he found that Zhang Tang was standing beside him, leaning down, and carefully observing Yang Chuan's face.
Yang Chuan was startled, and clasped his hands to his chest: "What do you want to do?" ”
"A total of 457 people died, of which 33 had their throats cut, 31 were bled to death by alien blades, 96 were killed by horses, 73 were killed by fierce beasts, and the remaining 224 were killed by the swords of the army."
Zhang Tang's eyes were cold, staring at Yang Chuan's eyes very quietly, and continued: "In addition, there is also a half-dead person, who was castrated and broken by someone, but you are the one who did it?" ”
Yang Chuan sat up and nodded in response: "Yes, I killed everyone, and Dong Yan was also abolished by me. ”
Zhang Tang shook his head: "No, you only killed sixty-four people, your six golden eagles killed seventy-three people, plus the one you abolished, the rest were killed by others, and they have nothing to do with you." ”
is worthy of being a person who tried to steal oil rats when he was a child, Zhang Tang is not easy to fool.
"By the way, Huo Qubing killed some people, and Cao Xiang also killed some people," Yang Chuan lay down on Ma Zazi very shamelessly, and said leisurely: "Anyway, it's all to protect the top secret of my Han Yulin Army." ”
Zhang Tang continued to stare at Yang Chuan's eyes and asked coldly: "Who else knows the recipe of war horse feed and the secret method of making military rations?" ”
Yang Chuan stretched out a finger and pointed to the pink-headed young man who was tied up in a string by a group of embroidered messengers: "They, after Dong Yan took away the formula, he actually made those guys memorize it, and they said that they were hateful?"
This kind of pickled goods, it's just damn it! ”
"In this way, you induced or forced Dong Yan to commit this great evil?" Zhang Tang continued to ask, the two light gray eyes did not have the slightest emotion, a bit like some kind of cold-blooded animal, which made Yang Chuan feel very uncomfortable.
"Lord Shi, you ask me, who do I ask?" Yang Chuan finally couldn't help it.
He slowly stood up and said very coldly: "I worked hard with Huo Quzhi and Uncle Cui Jiu for more than ten days and nights, and finally prepared the war horse feed formula.
Have you ever asked about the sweets and bitterness?
Also, as soon as you came up, you forced me to ask a victim, what kind of bullshit trial case are you? In my opinion, you are so suspicious, aren't you Dong Yan's comrade?
Come on, come on, why don't you inspect it, is the formula of war horse feed and the secret method of making military rations good? Is it useful? Isn't it worth the three of us to protect with their lives! ”
While speaking, Yang Chuan simply strode to the half-dead Dong Yan, took out two rolls of sheepskin from his arms, and threw them to Zhang Tang like garbage: "Please serve the imperial history for inspection!" ”
Zhang Tang's facial expression finally changed slightly.
Still, it's not so obvious.
His two deep nasolabial folds trembled slightly, and he said: "This is my Han top secret, even if I am a servant of the imperial history, I don't dare to take a look, Yu Linlang is making things difficult for me?" ”
Yang Chuan sneered, no longer paying attention to Zhang Tang, but squatted down and touched Cui Jiu's shoulder with his shoulder: "Uncle Cui Jiu, this thing can't die, right?" ”
Cui Jiu was 'rescuing' the half-dead Dong Yan, and the old god with a face was there: "You kid is very ruthless, and you will be uprooted with one knife?" ”
Yang Chuan glanced into the crotch of Dong Yan's pants and gasped: "Hey, at that time, I was competing with this pickled goods for the feed formula, and I naturally lost the weight in my hand, and I poked it a few times, I didn't think of it...... Tsk, so miserable?
Oops, what's going on with this thing's tongue? I only remember that he recited the formula loudly to those pink-headed boys, and the kid was so anxious that he pounced on him and wanted to gag him;
Why, you accidentally poked someone's tongue off? It shouldn't have been, I just wanted to protect the formula......"
Cui Jiu raised his head, frowned slightly, and reprimanded: "Can you say a few words of nonsense!" ”
Yang Chuan smiled, stood up, and stretched: "Alas, what's the matter with you, why do you always hate me for making noise?" ”
"Uncle Cui Jiu, in fact, I'm rarely willing to speak, but when I see you Uncle Cui Jiu, I can't help but want to say a few more words, you talk about it, is this fate between the two of us, or your charm is compelling, I can't help but feel admiration, like the surging river, stretching endlessly......"
Cui Jiu's face darkened: "You, shut up!" ”
I don't know what's going on, as soon as this little thief speaks, Cui Jiu's old thief will be inexplicably upset; This was the case when he was at the stone gate barrier, so that he was attacked by Sister Leopard and almost lost his life.
Yang Chuan lay back to Mazhazi.
Cui Jiu, the old thief, this 'sauce marinated beef tendon' finally has a little meaning, and it is beginning to chew, which makes him very satisfied.
As for this soup, this 'mutton steamed bun', it is still a little bit less meaningful, and it still needs to be cooked......
"Yang Chuan, you deliberately leaked my big man's top secret, the evidence is conclusive, what else do you have to say?" At this moment, Zhang Tang, who had an indifferent face, suddenly spoke.
His two light gray eyes once again stared at Yang Chuan's eyes.
