Fight the fire!

Hurry up and put out the fire!

I was awakened from my slumber by the sudden, shouting of the streets.

I quickly grabbed my coat and hurried out the door.

To the northwest, the raging fires have been burning red for half a day.

In the distance, a "hollow-shaped" courtyard, under the strong southeast wind, has turned into a huge fire cage, "whirring".

The people who came and went to fight the fire, the buckets carrying the buckets, and the basins of the basins, kept shuttling, and they were even more chaotic.

I saw that the fire in the back two buildings was the most intense, and the flames were also the highest.

The people fighting the fire could not get close, so they could only see the three-story building in front of them, which collapsed in an instant.

What is puzzling is that in the middle of the smoky courtyard, there is an old man, with his head up, his hair scattered, throwing his long sleeves, around the ruins, and running non-stop.

Running and shouting,

"Okay, I watched you rise tall buildings, I watched you feast guests, and now I see your buildings collapse! Ha! Ha! Ha! Retribution! Retribution! ”

I was about to step forward to stop me, when a beam with flames and white smoke was smashing at me, and I instinctively flashed backwards!

Bang!

My big head hit the ground first.

I couldn't care about the pain anymore and opened my eyes.

I found myself sweating profusely and falling under the bed.

Yes!

It turned out to be a dream

When a servant comes to call, his heart is still palpitating

On the way that Lord Yao took him to the Liang Guoxiang Mansion, I was still thinking about it.

Master Yao thinks I'm so weird, and I'm honestly afraid.

When I was taken to the front yard of the Prime Minister's Mansion, I found that there was also a "hollow-shaped" courtyard here.

However, this "hollow-shaped" courtyard is a long one, surrounded by a four-storey building.

How do you feel so similar to the scene you dreamed about this morning?

I began to wonder if I was hallucinating again.

Walking further in, I saw that the front yards of Xiangfu and Yaofu were similar in terms of floor area and layout on the surface.

But when I came to the backyard, I thought the difference was huge.

The depth of Yaofu is only two sets of quadrangle courtyards, but how many sets of quadrangle courtyards can be seen in Xiangfu for a while.

I saw Lord Yao enter the Prime Minister's Mansion and always put a smile on his face.

When I saw the prime minister, I was respectful.

But Prime Minister He Xuan didn't care about Lord Yao's behavior.

The body is far away from Lord Yao, and the face is forward.

Lord Yao is not taboo about these.

As officials in the same dynasty, they should understand each other.

When Mr. Yao entered the hospital, he first praised the pines and cypresses of He Xiangfu, how vigorous they were, and then how the woody plants that he cultivated matched with each other, and so on, in short, they were full of praise.

After that, he turned around and introduced to He Xiang,

"This is the cook I specially recruited from Yanguo, come and meet the adults!"

I hurried forward to salute.

"Good look! My name is Liu Bancheng,"

The prime minister looked me up and down.

Master Yao went on to say,

"This kid's food is very authentic. I thought, with such a good cook, how dare I enjoy it myself. I would like to recommend him to you. As for you, let him try his hand. If it feels okay, you can let him go to the Prime Minister's Mansion. So it is my honor to be able to contribute to the prime minister in my lifetime! ”

After saying that, his stomach straightened forward and he smiled more heartily.

The prime minister just smiled politely.

I found that the person in front of me was also of medium height, dressed plainly, with a thin body, and no official structure, but his eyes were a little different from others.

It's big, round, and a little sluggish, and it doesn't seem to be very flexible to turn.

When I came to Liang from the Kingdom of Jin, I had already begun to pay attention to the mannerisms of the officials of this dynasty, especially the eyes.

I found that the officials of this dynasty did not seem to pay much attention to eye protection.

Maybe it's overuse of their eyes, or maybe it's some other reason, their eyes are rusty and not very flexible.

However, it looks determined.

This is the same as the officials he has served before.

However, the difference between Prime Minister He Cheng's eyes and previous officials is that they are big and dignified.

I was looked up and down by these eyes, and my hair was straight, and I felt uncomfortable.

At this time, the prime minister turned around and called someone to send me to the back stove room.

After that, he looked at Master Yao and smiled and said,

"After an hour, let's go to the back stove and taste the food."

After speaking, the group entered the main hall of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

I was led through the three gardens, and after passing through the third arched gate, I slammed to the right,

There is a brown plaque on the second floor of the small second floor hanging in front of the door.

At this time, it was noon, and it was steaming, and people were in and out, busy and happy.

I found that the stove room on the first floor here is particularly spacious, and there are enough forty or fifty people working on the stove.

I was amazed by this meeting.

With such a large stove area and such a cook, there must be a lot of people dining here.

I remember.

It was recorded in the history books that Lord He Xuan's disciples were the most numerous at that time!

Could it be that his 3,000 guests are all here?

No, fifty people are in charge of eating for three thousand, isn't that a joke?

Exhaustion can't be done unless you use a robot to stir-fry.

Joke, where to get robots in this era!

I also found it amused by my own whims.

At this time, a big chef with a high hat was waiting in the hall on the first floor.

He came to me and bowed.

After listening to the servant's introduction, he led me alone and walked down the corridor of the stove room.

The hallway on the ground floor is deep.

The aisles are also dimly lit, lit only by a few candles.

As soon as I entered the house from outside, my eyes were very uncomfortable and I was stumbled.

Walking inside, I found that on both sides of the aisle, there were dark green solid wood fences.

The corners and joints of the wall are carved with various patterns, which are antique.

I followed the big chef all the way on.

When you come to a small door, press the button, the two sides of the door are separated, and in front of you is a set of steps downward.

Enter the basement level and pass through a corridor that gets brighter and brighter.

I saw that there were many separate rooms on either side of the hallway.

It feels like a billiard hall now, a Western restaurant, and a mahjong room.

The innermost part should be the kitchen, where from time to time there are maids in aprons, serving dishes and delivering food, coming and going.

I was led by the big chef to a small kitchen at the very back.

A female chef was waiting at the door.

This female chef, about 1.65 meters, has a pink face and is full of smiles.

Her breasts were so high that I could see that if I let her push forward a little, it would tear the chef's suit.

The big guy was in front, I was in the back, and I went into the small kitchen inside.

The kitchen area is not large, a long house, and the walls are deserted.

Four sets of crushed stone stoves are lined up from the outside to the inside.

In the innermost corner of the wall was stacked with a pile of wooden stumbling blocks.

The flue is located on the rear side, next to which there is an old-fashioned wind box that pulls and feeds.

I flipped the bamboo basket that was placed on the ground.

There is fresh pork, rabbit, chicken, and pigeon meat.

On the stove, there are salt, ginger, green onions, sauce, vinegar and other seasonings in the bamboo basket, and there are a few cabbages and potatoes next to it.

Looking up, some pottery, iron pots and pans, large and small, were neatly arranged in the stone wall.

That's all there is to it, what kind of dishes can be made?

I turned back to the big cook and said,

"Brother, do you have any preferences and taboos in terms of taste?

The big chef didn't talk to Liu Bancheng all the way.

When I asked this, my body shook, I was stunned, and said,

"I said, boy, don't take yourself too seriously. My lord, I just want to give your Lord Yao a face, and let you come in alone to try your hand. To put it bluntly, it's going through the motions. Got it? ”

Going through the motions? This guy's thick accent made me sound uncomfortable.
