It's night! In the backyard of Deyue Building, on the first floor of the concubine's boudoir.

When I saw several ducks on the long table, it was the appearance of Cantonese roast duck.

Wolf Qing from the Yanjing region of the modern plane immediately faced the official position of 'Captain of Tianli Star', and few people knew about it at all.

But the reputation of 'the first chef in Chang'an City', but the well-known Ba Long, began to complain:

"Ba Long, why can't this duck be made into Cantonese style, so it can't be made into Yanjing roast duck, do you have an opinion on our Yanjing roast duck?"

When such a complaint fell into his ears, the answer in Baron's mouth was very tactful:

"Get out, if you like to eat or not, or you will do it yourself."

", you kid has taken gun medicine, such a big reaction to dry hair? Isn't it a long time since I have eaten Yanjing roast duck, and I am a little hungry. ”

After hearing this, Wolf Qing replied with such a sentence in his mouth.

In the process of Ba Long and Wolf Qing being so intimidating each other.

Other netizens, whether it is Hu Biao, the commander who is dying on the street, or other veteran birds of the team, or novice rookies.

One counts as one, and they don't really care.

The main thing is that they know that this is just a way for everyone in the team to get along like a dead friend, and Wolf Qing and Barong are not polite, but they don't take it to heart, let alone hold a grudge.

As for why Balong, a chef, would make roast duck in Cantonese style, instead of Yanjing style.

The reason is that it is simpler to say.

It's not that Barong has some unique preferences for Cantonese roast duck, and it's not that he has any opinions on Yanjing roast duck.

Simply because in the process of making roast duck, there is a process of brushing sugar water on the skin.

This method can make the roast duck skin more golden and crispy.

I don't know what kind of situation it will be when others make roast duck, anyway, when Barong is making roast duck, it will take more sugar to make Yanjing roast duck.

Don't look at each one, the amount of sugar used is not much.

But now in a huge Chang'an City, thousands of roast ducks are eaten every day.

In this way, a little bit of adding up requires the use of a lot of frosting sugar, that is, the most primitive white sugar transported from Lingnan and other places.

In addition, dishes such as braised pork and tiger skin elbow consume frosting sugar.

It's just that Hu Biao and others have been in Chang'an City for more than a year, and the price of frosting has more than tripled, and there is still a situation where demand exceeds supply.

Because at present, in Chang'an City, as long as it is roast duck, it will always be the taste of Cantonese roast duck.

It doesn't matter what kind of roast duck is delicious, everything is based on cost control, such a simple reason.

Wolf Qing, a little brother, really wants to eat some serious Yanjing roast duck in the Datang mission world, and he will have to wait for at least two years.

Sugar beet is a crop, but Datang has a certain amount of cultivation at present.

However, high-sugar sugar beets, which can be used to extract sugar, will not be introduced until almost a thousand years later.

And when they came over this time, although Hu Biao and the others also brought some modern planes, excellent high-sugar beet seeds.

The problem is that the quantity is too small, and it will take at least two years to reach a large enough planting scale to meet the needs of opening a factory to extract sugar and produce white sugar.

When the sugar factory is officially put into operation, Brother Wolf Qing will naturally be able to eat this bite of Yanjing roast duck, and he will never forget the taste of his hometown.

If at that time, he is still in the mission world; However, it should be impossible to do so.

Similar to the situation of white sugar production, there are better.

For example, it is also necessary to plant a large area to have enough materials for the popularization of warm items such as cotton cloth and cotton clothing; So far, it can only be produced in small quantities.

Fortunately, after solving the problem that the lining fabric will leak down, such a warm artifact as a down jacket has now been successfully produced.

The only pity is that the price is relatively expensive and the output is relatively small.

Even the Anxi Army, which will need to fight in the bitter cold Hexi and Western Regions in the future because of combat figures, has no way to do it at present.

Fortunately, the wool textile industry has not been officially launched by netizens.

Although so far, it is still facing problems such as wool shortages caused by the fall of Longyou and Hexi.

However, the production of various woolen sweaters, coats, blankets, etc., has also made the army warm and has a considerable improvement in its ability to move in winter......

After that, everyone ate and drank while waiting for the arrival of twelve o'clock in the middle of the night.

Even if the banquet begins at eight o'clock, it is still three or four hours before twelve; Together with the tasks of the second stage, all the requirements are met.

It is even far beyond the requirements of the system.

For a while, the mood of Hu Biao and others was called an unprecedented relaxation.

In the process of drinking wine and eating meat, they were not only bragging about each other, boasting about their own awesome deeds in previous missions, but also punching and playing with a sieve.

In the meantime, some people stood up and sang a song, or they picked up a group of girls, each of whom came to dance.

A wine banquet was forced by them to open a rhythm like a Spring Festival party.

It can be said that except for the one-armed corn, all the other netizens are in an excellent mood.

And corn is also helpless, since the incident on the night of Qixi last year; This little brother seems to have completely changed as a person, and the originally lively and active person has suddenly become silent.

Now, in the joyful atmosphere of others, he is pouring wine into his mouth by himself, cup by cup.

Soon after, his face and eyes were already full of smoky wine.

Seeing such a scene, everyone sighed silently, but did nothing; Because they have persuaded everything that should be persuaded, and the rest can only be left to time.

Because time can erase everything, let alone a small camellia.

It's just that Hu Biao and all of them didn't expect that tonight, when they thought there was no suspense, there were still some changes they didn't expect.

*****

It was still that night, when the backyard of Deyue Tower was full of laughter.

The location is in Dafeichuan, that is, the modern plane of Qing Province, near the Buha River west of Qinghai Lake.

I feel that in the temperature close to sub-zero, the cold wind blowing on my body keeps drilling into the cracks of my bones; After lifting the sleeves of his shirt and wiping a handful of frozen out snot.

With a voice that he could only hear, he scolded fiercely:

"Thief, why is this place so weird, it's still summer in Chang'an City in the Tang Dynasty, but why is it so cold here at night."

At this moment, Qu Da missed everything he had in Chang'an City.

Because there is another half a month, it is the Mid-Autumn Festival of another year, and my family can stay in the courtyard, and put on the wine, vegetables, moon cakes, melons and fruits to worship the ancestors and the moon.

Then I had a delicious meal, during which I could also take the test for my son's studies and my daughter's handiwork.

All of the above is so beautiful just thinking about it; It's just that Qu Da also knows that at least within ten years, he doesn't want to think about such a good thing, and there is no way to return to Chang'an City, which he dreamed of going back to.

The reason is simple, Quda is a bad person.

To be more precise, he is a descendant of a veteran of the Tang Anxi Army.

Last year, when my mother-in-law was seriously ill at home and had no money for medical treatment, and they were all preparing to do a shabby funeral, Captain Xufeng found them.

Not only was a sum of 200,000 yuan given, a huge sum of money that they didn't dare to think of before.

After Mr. Nanze made a move, it was only three or five days of work, and his mother-in-law's illness was completely improved.

From that moment on, Qu Da told himself that the lives of him and their family would be Hu Biao and the remnants of the Anxi Army in the future.

Based on such a one, the mind of being a cow as a horse to repay it.

When the 'Convenient Small Table' opened, he was one of the first to join and became one of the employees.

When Hu Shuai received the edict of the cloth belt, became a bad handsome person, and began to secretly recruit people, he was the first batch to join it.

It made him feel regretful that because of his poor and sick family since he was a child, he was physically impaired.

Those who failed to be selected for the operational unit of the bad guys could only be assigned to the auxiliary staff who inquired about the news; This made Qu Da, who planned to risk his life and repay Hu Shuai and Yiying Lieutenant, depressed for a long time.

So, at the beginning of last summer.

When the singer of 'Captain Tianjiexing' found himself to talk, he said that he intended to send himself to act as a spy on the territory of the Tibetans.

The whole process will be extremely arduous and dangerous, and it will only be possible to return early after ten years, or if you have made great achievements.

Whether to go or not is all voluntary, Hu Shuai and he are definitely not reluctant to say this.

Without the slightest hesitation, Qu Da just agreed.

After two months of targeted training and learning how to speak, graze, and eat as a Tuyuhun person, he said goodbye to his family.

Together with two other companions, Zhu Yong and Ma Jun, they came to Dafeichuan, disguised themselves as a wandering fur merchant, and began to move around collecting intelligence.

The reason why he is disguised as a Tuyuhun person, not a Tubo person.

It was more than a hundred years ago, after the kingdom of Tuyuhun was destroyed by the Tubo people, except for a small number of people who fled to Liangzhou with the royal family and took refuge in the Tang Dynasty.

Most of the remaining Tuyuhun people have all taken refuge in the Tubo people.

After so many years, some of the Tuyuhun people have mixed up some status in the Tubo royal court, so through the channels of some Tuyuhun nobles, they can still find out a lot of news about the Tubo people.

In short, after arriving here in Dafeichuan, Qu Da and the other three counted it, and it was almost a year since they counted.

Under the wind and sun of this place outside the pass, they looked like they had two more lumps on their faces from the outside, and the thing called 'plateau red' in Mr. Nanzawa's mouth also became extremely rough.

The whole body is dirty, not only exuding a strong smell of sheep, but I don't know how many lice there are.

But all of the above seems to be worth it.

Just this evening, a person from the Tuyuhun 'Cold Spring Department' sent someone to invite them over, saying that they had an extremely important matter to discuss.

Instinctively, Qu Da knew that his identity as a bad person should have been exposed; But I don't know why, the other party didn't reveal himself.

After Qu Da thought about it a little, he didn't panic in his heart.

Because of his own training and long-term sensitivity to collect intelligence, he vaguely knew that the Tubo people were afraid that something terrible would happen.

So, there was a scene where they set off overnight tonight......

After a half-night trek, Qu Da and the other three saw their target tonight: Murong Asa, a tribal leader who rarely lived long in Tuyuhun and was already in his seventies.

In a tribe like Tuyuhun, where there is no writing and everything is passed on by word of mouth.

Age generally represents wisdom, and he is an old fox-like character, and in the process of dealing with him in the past, Murong Asa undoubtedly fits this perfectly.

Later, in the tent, only the three of them plus the four Murong Asa were present, and after setting up a secret posture.

Qu Da completely understood, and the other party had already guessed his identity.

Suddenly there was no idea of turning in circles, straightened his waist, and after making a Tang cross-handed salute, he said in a standard Guanzhong dialect:

"Qu Da, a bad person in Datang, has seen a nobleman.

Since the noble man called me here in the starry night, there must be something urgent to discuss, why don't we just get straight to the point? ”

Faced with Qu Da's question, Murong Asa looked at the three of them for a while with his dizzy old eyes, and then asked a sentence in his mouth:

"I, and my family, can I trust you Tang people?"

Faced with such a question, Qu Da glanced at his colleagues, and his face showed absolute confidence.

Lang Sheng said: "The same rice raises a hundred kinds of people, whether it is the Tang people, the other Tubo people, Tuyuhun people, Hu people, Nanzhao people, naturally there are good people and bad people, who can say a word which kind of people can believe."

But we and other bad people in Datang can be believed by everyone.

Without him! The top boss of our waiting, the bad handsome Hu Biao, and the captains of Tiangangxing, are all well-known and well-known daughters.

As long as you promise something, there is absolutely no time to break your promise. ”

After hearing this, Murong Asa nodded instinctively, because he thought of the "Tang Morning Post" that had come to his hands after an unknown number of tosses and turns.

The above deeds of Hu Biao and others who visited hard and sent a large amount of money to the descendants of their colleagues for the sake of a promise in the past.

Suddenly, in Murong Asa's heart, he basically believed the trustworthy statement of these people in front of him.

"What the newspaper says, can there be anything wrong?" This is Murong Asa, the most true thoughts in the hearts of such a group of old men of different races who have no writing themselves, but are extremely devout to words.

Thinking of the urgency of the matter, I really didn't have much time to delay.

After Murong Asa had a plain face, he also spoke decisively:

"Just today at noon, our family's most promising grandson, Murong Jie, came back, he escaped from the Tubo royal court, and brought back bad news.

Something happened to the royal court of the Tubo people, and Shang Qixin'er, the new Zampu, has already grasped all the power.

Because Murong Jie inadvertently mastered some secrets of Shang Qi'er's heart, they would never let us go; Even the army of the Tibetans is already on the way to kill.

Among the secrets that Murong Jie has mastered, a large part of them are related to your Tang Dynasty, which can be said to be related to the life and death of the Tang people.

So, that's where I'm going to confer with you.

I am so old that I even feel the call of the gods, and to die is to die; But the family of the Murong family can't die like this.

You bring Murong Jie, my five grandsons.

Let them go to Chang'an City safely, arrange for them to be a Tang people, a thing to live, and protect their safety.

As long as you promise to do all this, Murong Jie will tell you everything he knows. ”

"No problem, let your grandchildren prepare, and we'll leave right away." Immediately decided, Qu Da's mouth agreed.

And Murong Asa is even more decisive, he let his grandsons prepare everything early.

No matter what the discussion with Qu Da and the others was, they were ready to let them run away overnight.

So soon after, the group had quietly left the Cold Spring Department with a number of horses and large bags.

However, when he walked out of Lixu, there was a huge shouting of killing from the cold spring behind him, and he thought that the pursuers of the Tubo people had already been killed.

I am afraid that it will not be long before they can find that Murong Jie has fled and chased after him along the horse's hoof prints.

Without thinking much about it, Qu Da said to the other two colleagues: "Zhu Yong and Feng Jun, you leave some war horses loaded with heavy loads, and lead people to walk from the path on the left, remember to erase the traces along the way."

I took the horses and led them away from the main road. ”

The voice fell, and seeing that Zhu Yong and Feng Jun still wanted to refute, they added another sentence in their mouths: "When I came out of Chang'an City, the captain of Tianjiexing had already said that I was the main among the three."

So this is a military order and must not be violated. ”

After hearing this, Zhu Yong and Feng Jun solemnly bowed to Qu Da and didn't say anything, but they represented too many things.

Eventually, Quda added some stones to the horse-bearing horse to ensure that the horseshoe prints were deep enough.

led a string of seven or eight war horses and marched all the way along the road.

After running for more than ten miles along the way, he could no longer hear any movement in the cold spring behind him, but there was still no sound of horses' hooves chasing him, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

If you can not die, who wants to hang up early.

It was only after the next second that Qu Da's eyes widened in horror, because a guy wearing a bright red palace costume and looking like a teenager was standing on his horse's head like a ghost......
