Chapter 231: Shanglin Yuan

The soup made from fresh lamb bones looks clear, but it still has a delicious flavor.

Pepper, cardamom, angelica and ginger remove the smell and reduce the body, and licorice and cumin are sweetened to balance the various flavors.

Boil for more than an hour and a half, until you can easily pierce the mutton with chopsticks, add white radish, and then use the oligohydrated oil of the radish to absorb the fat in the mutton soup, so that the soup is not weak and greasy.

Soup fat, soup fresh.

Looking at the clear soup, it smells like a smell of mutton, holding a faint bit of meat.

Then the lamb slices that have been boiled until they are soft and rotten are placed in a bowl, just add a small spoon of salt to adjust the basic flavor, and then pour the radish soup into the bowl.

Then sprinkle with a handful of verdant chives to enhance the flavor, and use the piping hot soup to bring out the aroma of the green onions. Finish with a touch of coriander.

Suck!

"Ahh A mouthful of mutton soup is swallowed, and the whole person is transparent

Soon, a whole bowl of clear water mutton and even meat and soup were sucked into Jia Hui's stomach by the storm, no one can stop Lao Tzu from eating meat!

Bang Dang!

The coarse porcelain bowl, which was left with some small crumbs at the bottom of the bowl, was rudely thrown on the table, and it staggered and spun for a while before stopping.

"Shopkeeper, another bowl of mutton soup!"

"it!" The shopkeeper who had been paying attention to Jia Hui's table hurriedly responded, and then personally added meat and soup and trotted all the way to Jia Hui.

"Captain, please!"

"No, no! Shopkeeper, your mutton, this is this in Chang'an City! Jia Hui gave a thumbs up to the shopkeeper.

"Hey, hey. Taiwei has a lot of reputation, Taiwei has a lot of reputation" was affirmed by the Taiwei of the dynasty, the shopkeeper's heart suddenly blossomed, and Li Xiangye also nodded towards himself with a look of approval, and he couldn't find the north with a happy face!

Hurriedly asked the back kitchen to cook a few more dishes for Xiangye and Taiwei, and then nodded and left.

Food comes first, how can it be disappointed?

Anyway, it doesn't matter, so why don't you enjoy the food and then talk!

Golden thread oil tower, gourd head, gourd chicken, Yellow River carp, plus the store is specially stuffed with meat sandwich buns, and the people at the table are silent and hearty!

"Hiccup!" The last piece of white-cut mutton entered the stomach of Gao Kecheng, the youngest on the table, and the meal was finished.

"Huh boy, it's very eaten!" Jia Hui, who was leaning on the back of the chair, looked at Gao Kecheng, who was wiping his mouth with a handkerchief, and quipped.

"Huh? Grandpa, me." Gao Kecheng's face flushed, and he couldn't help but feel a little shy when he thought of the dishes he ate the most on the table just now

"Hehe, you can eat well, it's the time to grow your body, and it's not okay to eat too much!" Li Miao helped Gao Kecheng to relieve the siege.

"Yes, it's a blessing to be able to eat" Jia Hui sighed, "My brother Ying eats less, it's not that he can't eat, it's just that he eats less, and I don't know what he can grow into in the future."

"Don't worry, you and your wife are tall, and Jia Ying will definitely not be short, besides, with a father like you who is a general, he will definitely teach him martial arts, and at that time he will be difficult not to eat" Li Xiang began to chat with Jia Hui.

"Oh, I hope." Jia Hui scratched her head, a little worried.

Jia Hui estimated that Jia Lian had about two-thirds of the amount of food that Jia Lian had back then, and now Jia Lian looks like he will grow into a good boy who is not fat or thin, and has a well-proportioned figure, so what will Jia Lian's good son look like if he eats as well? Thin dogs?

That's not going to work!

"Grandpa, the little grandfather is still young, maybe he will eat more when he grows up!" Chang Shanbo came over and comforted.

"Borrow your auspicious words," Jia Hui responded weakly.

"Don't talk about this, Elder Ge, why did you bring me over for dinner today?" Jia Hui shook his head and turned his head to look at Li Xiang.

"It's not a big deal, it's just your family's Jia Zhu's business"

"I understand, my second uncle's reputation is really ruined, so forget about this marriage contract."

"What kind of are you talking about? My Li family is married to Jinke Tan Hualang, and not to the son of an old boy who has lost his position as a five-rank official, why is it just like this? Li Miao looked at Jia Hui in surprise.

"Huh? Not getting married? ”

"What kind of divorce, my niece is double ten, and it is hard to find someone who has a good impression of each other, if I get out of marriage, then my niece will hate me to death!" Speaking of this, Li Xiang also looked helpless.

To be reasonable, although he is very optimistic about Jia Zhu, he values the entire Jia family behind Jia Zhu more than the three mansions of the Jia family, don't look at him as the first assistant of the Ministry of Rites and the Cabinet seems to be very beautiful, but the next generation of the Li family is all reckless, and they can't go through the imperial examination at all.

Since he can't pass the imperial examination, things like land can't be kept at all, and the martial arts hall has also returned to the second, at most, it will go back to a few decades ago, and it is also a little difficult for his own heirs to be a rich man.

He was fine when he was alive, and the name of his predecessor was enough to shelter his family from the wind and rain, but what if he died?

In an instant, it will become a small family with a huge amount of money, and it must not be able to count on the connections in the past. How can it be.

At this time, the advantages of marrying with Xungui are reflected, the power of Xungui's family is deep-rooted, as long as it is not his own death, generally speaking, the wealth of five generations is not a problem. So for the Xungui family, Li Xiang is a married daughter, if the daughters become the housewife. For details, please refer to Jia Hui's mother before returning home.

Therefore, in the eyes of other civil official families, it is a very utilitarian marriage partner, but it is an urgent matter for the Li family, and he wants to finalize the marriage of several unmarried juniors in the family as much as possible when he is still the first assistant.

"No problem, no problem at all, get married when he comes back from North Korea! You prepare first, I estimate that in another month or two, the North Korean side will start, and Zhu Ge'er will be able to come back, and as soon as he arrives home, how about we get married the next day? Jia Hui patted his chest and reassured.

The eldest brother is like a father, although this eldest brother wants to fill in the word "Tang", and Jia Zhu's own father is still in the world, but Jia Zheng's reputation for incompetence has become famous throughout the country, and he has no right to ask about Jia Zhu's marriage.

And with Jia Zheng losing his official position, the Wang family is only left with the identity of Prince Yiyong's mother who can handle it, but because of Jia Hui's face, now the nobles don't take her to play, let alone the civil officials who value reputation the most.

Jia Mu? Aren't you afraid of evil, Captain?

Therefore, Jia Zhu's marriage really needs Jia Hui to ask.

Jia Hui doesn't care about this, he mainly has a grudge against the Wang family, and his revenge is just a run on the Huang shop, and he has never hurt anyone, so he has no grudge against the Jia Zhu brothers and sisters.

"Cheng, then it's decided." Li Miao nodded with satisfaction.

"Cheng, then the old man will take his leave, and we will meet in Lin Yuan in two days." Li Miao got up to say goodbye, and Jia Hui and the two pendants also quickly stood up and bowed to say goodbye to Li Xiang

It wasn't until Li Xiang's figure disappeared from the field of vision of the three of them that the three of them sat down again.

"Grandpa, who is Shanglin Yuan?" Chang Shanbo was a little puzzled.

"Huh? Don't you know? Jia Hui looked at them in amazement.

"Eh, isn't this my sister married to Jiangxi, and gave birth to a nephew last month, so I went to the south to drink full moon wine, Chang'an, who arrived only the day before yesterday, grandfather, what is the matter with Shanglin Yuan?" Chang Shanbo hurriedly explained.

"Nonsense, what did the two saints come to Kansai for? It's a hunt in the west! Jia Hui was a little speechless.

It's all in Lin Yuan, plus the second saint is Chang'an, who came in the name of hunting in the west, can't you guess what to do?

Have you ever read a book?

"Ah, hunting, I'm confused, I'm confused." Chang Shanbo slapped his head and suddenly realized.

"You. . . Never mind. I wanted to scold him for not learning and knowing, but when the fifteen-year-old boy next to him looked at him with a pair of clear, bright and even a little silly eyes, he swallowed the dirty words back into his stomach.

"That's it, I'm going to go too." Jia Hui smashed his mouth, feeling that it was not interesting to continue to stay here, so he stood up and prepared to leave.

The two people sitting at the opposite table also hurriedly got up to see each other off.

"Ah yes, boy, in two days I will go to Lin Yuan to hunt, and the emperor will test the bow and horse homework of the sons and daughters of Xungui, don't go out in the next two days, and it doesn't hurt to concentrate on practicing at home!" Jia Hui patted Gao Kecheng's shoulder and gave a serious advice, and left the shop without looking back.

。。。。。。

Shanglin Garden was built during the reign of Qin Shi Huang.

According to the "Historical Records of the First Emperor of Qin", it is recorded that in the twenty-sixth year of the first emperor, after Qin destroyed the Six Kingdoms, "the rich people of the world moved to Xianyang for 120,000 households." The temples, Zhangtai and Shanglin are all in Weinan."

In the third year of the founding of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Emperor Wu ordered the Taizhong Dafu Wuqiu Shouwang to begin to expand the Shanglin Garden in the south of Sanqiao Town, north of Zhongnan Mountain, east of Zhouzhi and west of Qujiang Pond, and expropriated all the cultivated land and grassland of the people in this range for the construction of various landscapes in the garden.

Later, Shanglinyuan further expanded to the east and north: the north expanded to the north of the Wei River, and the east expanded to the east of Chan and Ba, forming an unprecedented scale and entering its heyday.

However, with the change of years and the increase in the population of Guanzhong, Shanglin Garden inevitably shrank a lot, but it is still a huge royal forbidden garden with one of the largest scales.

The hunting location chosen this time was at the northern foot of Jungnam Mountain.

In ancient times, the hunting ceremony must be followed by the four seasons, the midwinter agricultural gap, and the training of sergeants, which is also the continuation of the original military purpose of hunting activities.

However, most of the hunting activities in Daqi take place between June and October.

In previous years, the emperor took at least 100,000 troops and hundreds of civil and military officials out of the grassland to carry out the hunting, on the one hand, to train the troops, and on the other hand, to deter the Mughal tribes.

But now there is no need, Yuan Ting has been brought back to the Guan by Jia Hui in its entirety, so there is no need to run thousands of miles to the grassland, but you can have fun in the Guannai.

After the emperor sacrificed to the Emperor of Heaven, the ancestors, and the Sheji, he took the civil and military nobles who followed the two saints to hunt in the west and went to Zhongnan Mountain.

Hunting is not an ordinary hunt, but an important ceremonial activity to promote the majesty of the emperor and show the royal demeanor. Therefore, the whole set of big cars was put out, accompanying the courtiers, the ceremonial team, the guard carriages and horses, and the flag canopy, which was magnificent and magnificent.

When the emperor's hunting team sets off, it passes through the national gate, that is, the main gate of Chang'an City, Mingde Gate, and also needs to have the priest's department to sacrifice to the Taoist god, "to pass the country, the sacrificial place to cross the mountains and rivers", to accumulate soil at the national gate as a wheel, to symbolize the mountains and rivers, the emperor's chariot chariot passed, in order to show that the way to patrol the hunt is safe and smooth, no danger and no obstacles.

After that, the emperor wanted to "as for Daizong" and "burnt firewood", that is, to the foot of Mount Tai, burn firewood and sacrifice to the sky. However, Daqi simplified the process and further refined it on the basis of inheriting the ancient system. Changed to "lay first and then burn", first sacrifice to the Emperor of Heaven, share it with the Taizu, and then accumulate firewood to burn it, and inform the news that God has arrived. Then, "look at the mountains and rivers", and sacrifice a famous mountain and river, without the emperor going to the place where the mountains and rivers are located.

Also, it stands to reason that it is necessary to go to worship Mount Tai, if it is to hunt in Shanglin Yuan and let the emperor go all the way to Mount Tai.

Forget it, how can etiquette be such an inconvenient thing?

In addition, it is necessary to sacrifice to the mountains and rivers, inform the heavens, and gather the local prefects and other vassal envoys to gather and feast together.

It is also necessary to observe the politics of the patrol area, understand the local folk customs, coordinate and verify the local agricultural seasons, festivals and customs, inspect the laws and regulations, standardize the etiquette and music, and depreciate or reward and punish the inspection situation

After a whole set of etiquette, the journey of more than fifty miles was forced to walk for nearly two days, and the etiquette was so cumbersome that Jia Hui was about to go crazy, and even had to wear a guard of honor armor for two whole days.

Although it is paper armor, it is not heavy, but on a hot day, it will be stuffy and hot if it is pasted on the body, and it is not easy to make any armor!

"Oops, hey, hey. It's a place to go." In the shogunate of Jia Hui in the camp, Jia Hui spread out on the mat on the ground, his eyes were confused.

These two days have been really an old sin.

kept meeting with the emperor with local officials, and the prefect and county were just that, who knew that the emperor had a whim to start meeting with the village chief!

Didn't you see those old men who were trembling with fright!

"Oh, your clothes are soaked, don't stain the mat, quick, go wash it first!" Li Kun, who arrived at the camp yesterday and was reading a book, frowned.

"I don't! I'm just lying on my stomach to rest for a while! Jia Hui didn't have the slightest intention of getting up.

"Go and go, sweat smells and smells!"

"I don't!"

"Oh, why can't I say I can't move you! Let's take a shower and change clothes! Li Kun squatted down and kept poking Jia Hui's side waist with his fingers, causing Jia Hui to keep dodging to the other side.

Today, Xiao Yanei was taken away by his grandfather and showed off to his old brothers, so Li Kun was rarely quiet today.

"Stop, stop! Don't poke, don't poke! You're just going to let me lie down for a while. I'm so tired" There are only husband and wife left in the shogunate now, and Jia Hui also sprinkled a coquettish on Li Kun for the first time, and the charming and energetic Li Kun got goosebumps when he was excited!

Then the speed of the finger poking Jia Hui's side waist became faster and faster
