Chapter 228: Enter the palace and look at the menu

Lin Xiaoman was overjoyed when he heard this, and took out a palm-sized glass mirror from under the table, "Then what about you look at this?" ”

Lu Jin didn't know what Lin Xiaoman gave him at first, but he turned it over in his hand and was stunned when he saw himself clearly in the mirror.

It's not entirely that I'm surprised by the magic of the mirror, but it's the first time I see myself so clearly, and I can't come back to my senses for a while, it's so handsome! The gold, silver, and bronze mirrors used in the past all buried his handsomeness.

Lin Xiaoman saw that he was staring at the mirror with his eyes all the time, and pulled his sleeve, "What's the matter?" Stunned by your own handsomeness? ”

Lu Jin, who was pulled back to her senses, blushed, saying this, as if he was narcissistic, but he was indeed more handsome than others.

Thinking about it, I couldn't help but take a look at it again: Well, it's still the people who look good in the glass mirror, and they don't change their shape.

Lin Erhu didn't speak for a long time, and when he saw Lu Jin staring at the mirror, he was also a little speechless: Why is Brother Lu so stinky and beautiful?

But think about the first time he looked in the mirror in the mall, he also stared at the mirror for a long time.

Lu Jin took the mirror in his hand, and after thinking about it for a while, he didn't know how to price it, after all, this mirror was indeed too rare, and it was not an exaggeration to say that it was worth even the city.

Lu Jin said: "Is there still such a mirror?" ”

Lin Xiaoman still said the same sentence: "How much you want." ”

Lu Jin knew in his heart, "You prepare a few more, I will send this mirror to the palace, and after the reputation of the mirror spreads, I will have people take the mirror you prepared to the treasure competition to sell." ”

Treasure Hunting? Lin Xiaoman heard this word for the first time, but it sounded like an auction.

She has participated in auctions, but I don't know if the auctions at this time are the same as those in later generations.

Seeing Lin Xiaoman's curious face, Lu Jin couldn't help but laugh, "Want to go?" ”

Lin Xiaoman looked resentful, "What if you want to go?" You won't let me go out. ”

Lu Jin suddenly felt a little distressed, thinking that since she came to the capital, except for the first few days, she could still go to the streets, and then she never went out of the house again at his request, thinking that she was bored and panicked.

couldn't help but comfort: "Don't worry, when the matter is over in a few days, I'll take you to walk around the capital." ”

Is it over? Lin Xiaoman thought that Lu Jin had been busier and busier in recent days, and suddenly worried about what dangerous things he was doing, "You and I are telling the truth, are you doing something dangerous in secret?" ”

Lu Jin held her hand and comforted, "It's nothing, it's just tracking down the traitor, and I already have eyebrows, and it won't take long to catch all the people." ”

Lin Xiaoman was even more worried, and wanted to persuade, but Lu Jin said: "It's really okay, you don't need me to charge into battle, it's all left to my subordinates, as long as you don't go out in the mansion, and there are my people guarding outside, you won't be in danger." ”

Lin Xiaoman sighed, "You said that you are just a small county order, why do you still do such a big thing?" I don't know what the emperor thinks? There are no more right-hand people around him? ”

As soon as Lu Jin's hand tightened, his expression suddenly became weak, and he stammered, "Perhaps...... Maybe the emperor trusts me more, right? ”

"Maybe I'm using you as a gunman." Lin Xiaoman glanced at him, knowing that she couldn't help with these things, so she could only hold Lu Jin's hand back, "You must be good." ”

"Well, with you and Erhu, I won't joke with my life."

Lin Erhu, who was silently eating melons and watching the play, was suddenly cued, and he was a little stunned for a while, not understanding why his future brother-in-law was talking sweetly to his sister, why did he suddenly take him? He's not a treasure for both of them.

But what's the deal with being so impressed?

The mirror and wine utensils were taken away by Lu Jin, and Lin Xiaoman started the days of salted fish in the eyes of others, but he was actually very busy.

When he has nothing to do during the day, he goes shopping with Meng Meng, and the crew will rush over to help if he has something.

But I don't know that this Qingping county lord who stays at home and always tells him that he can't find anyone in the house is cold and unkind? Or are you too timid to meet people?

On the tenth day of the fifth month, there are eighteen days left on the queen's birthday, and the queen is agreeing with several daughters-in-law on the dishes to be used, and the crown princess suddenly said: "I heard that the chef of Qingping County is extraordinary, and the pickles and sauces made are so delicious, I want to do a good job, right?" It's better to invite her into the palace to discuss together, and maybe let her give some advice. ”

Thinking of the special products that she asked Father-in-law Fang and his party to bring back to Beijing when she rewarded Lin Xiaoman before, the queen couldn't help but swallow her saliva.

Although Lin Xiaoman also brought some local products that are said to be Qingping County when he entered Beijing this time, because the weather was hot, some things could not be transported over long distances, and there were not many things brought into Beijing.

And after the county lord of Qingping entered Beijing, he was also very busy as if it was news from the county lord's mansion, and he didn't get any delicious food to send to the palace, which made the queen a little dissatisfied, and she entered Beijing, I don't know how to get some delicious food to get the emperor, and then give her more benefits, is there a pig brain in her head?

But as a queen, she couldn't let people go to Lin Xiaoman to beg for food, but she was greedy.

The crown princess was still sensible and offered to let the county lord of Qingping help look at the menu.

"What the crown princess said is very true, then the county lord of Xuanqingping will enter the palace tomorrow."

A calculating smile flashed in the princess's eyes, she still didn't believe in the queen's call, and the county lord of Qingping could still hide in the county lord's mansion and pretend to be the eighth king.

Meng Meng has already returned to Qingping City, and if Lin Xiaoman doesn't receive a call from the crew these days, he will stay in the house and never go anywhere.

It was not surprising when she received the queen's summons, she is now also a big celebrity for the country and the people, the emperor and queen only summoned her once, it was strange, just let her enter the palace to see what the hell is the menu?

In terms of the cooking skills of the imperial chef in the palace, which one is not better than her? It's nothing more than that they don't know how to cook some famous dishes in later generations, and the dishes they make are beautiful and delicious, so she can point fingers, but she has to laugh off people's big teeth.

But if you don't say anything when you enter the palace, will the queen think it is perfunctory? What do you think?

For this reason, Lin Xiaoman found a lot of specifications for ancient royal birthday banquets on the Internet, but the most he could find was the Manchu and Han full banquets.

Many of the dishes on the Manchu Han banquet are cherished animals, Lin Xiaoman didn't want to cause harm to these animals because of his mouth, so he finally chose some dishes with good meanings, and planned to be flexible after reading the menu of the imperial dining room tomorrow.

Because he entered the palace during the day, Lin Xiaoman saw it much more clearly this time, and when he looked at it, it was really the film and television city that looked more magnificent and domineering.

The queen is in the Changchun Palace to meet the women who have entered Beijing, the birthday banquet is imminent, the officials and family members who have entered Beijing from Tiannan and Haibei have increased, and there are many old people and virtuous women who are very prestigious among the people.

The queen has not been idle much in the past few days, and the Ivy Spring Palace is very lively every day.

When Lin Xiaoman came in, he saw an old woman with snow-white hair but a ruddy face sitting in the queen's lower position.
