Chapter 482: The moon in the sky moves red phoenix
It is not that the ruthless clouds are pressing against the surroundings, and the wind and dust are shaking. Passers-by ask about the things in the car, as white as snow and crystal clear.
The introduction of yellow leeks has shown a trend of overwhelming garlic seedlings for a while.
In the palace, Li Longji ate three-fresh dumplings made of yellow leeks, and drank a bowl of garlic seedling soup in an inappropriate way, as if he was talking to the eunuchs and palace maids in the palace: "How? How? What I said? But I guessed it? Luo Bin, you say."
Luo Bin was confused and didn't know what Your Majesty asked. When he saw the emperor looking over, he hurriedly said, "Your Majesty is really a scheming. The meaning of the words a few days ago was unsuccessful. Your Majesty's power made people sigh, "It's better than it is, and there are many worse than it is."
Hearing Luo Bin's praise, Li Longji happily ate another dumpling and asked Luo Bin again: "Do you know how I guess the specific matter?"
Luo Bin was confused now, what exactly is? Who knows what it is?
While worried, Gao Lishi walked in from outside with a tray in his hand and rescued Luo Bin, "I know the most what Your Majesty said some time ago. However, I know that Zhang Xiaobao has a backup plan and has not yet been released. When he is released, he will definitely make money from the Zhang and Wang families. I admire your great plan."
"Hmph, Xiaobiao, Xiaobiao, no matter how he is cunning, Zhang Xiaobiao can't fool me. Without the garlic sprouts first, how can the yellow leeks be sold hot?"
Li Longji looked scheming and thoughtful, raised his chin slightly, and acted arrogantly.
"Your Majesty, the sweet garlic has been marinated. If you want to eat yellow leeks in the future, you can let Sinong Temple plant it specifically. The method is simple, it will cover its light and be cool for a long time, and its leaves will be yellow."
Gao Lishi changed back to Li Longji's chin, put the tray on the table, and introduced the method of planting leeks.
Li Longji paused, but he didn't expect that the yellow leek planting was so simple. Then he looked at the garlic on the plate, picked up one and bit it lightly in his mouth, and nodded immediately with satisfaction, "Well, it's fine, this garlic tastes very good, you can eat it with it, it's refreshing and appetizing. From now on, my Tang Dynasty will be more delicious."
"What Your Majesty said is very true. However, in the future, there will be countless garlic seedlings in the farming land. I am afraid that the garlic will be abundant and the garlic farmers will suffer losses, so I will also consider it carefully."
Gao Lishi reminded him that his eyes looked at the peeled garlic skin of Li Longji, which was transparent and shiny, and said, "Your Majesty doesn't know that the skin of sweet garlic can still be in the mouth. Compared with the garlic cloves, it adds a little toughness. Choose green garlic to marinate. The skin is tough but not timber, and the texture is moderate. If you tear the silk into threads, it may be continuous."
When Li Longji heard Gao Lishi say that, he couldn't help but pick up another one. This time he ate the skin together and nodded, "It's really good. I'll discuss this matter tomorrow morning."
Gao Lishi wrote down the words and said to Li Longji: "Your Majesty, when I went to get the garlic, I received a telegram and said about the new Luos."
"What's the matter?"
"A part of the Xiaobao's series of plans was a while ago, when I transferred garlic from Silla to my Tang, I used the sweet garlic recipe to exchange it. Therefore, Silla collected garlic in China to make sweet garlic. However, there was a lot of sugar needed in the sweet garlic recipe. Silla had no sugar available, so I wanted to buy it from my Tang."
Gao Lishi spoke the telegram content without any haste.
"Oh? And such things?" If it were Li Longji in the past, he might not have had much reaction. Now he is very interested in what Zhang Xiaobao has done and feels that this matter is absolutely extraordinary.
"Yes, some people already want to transport the sugar from other places to Dengzhou and ship to Silla, but..."
"But Xiaobao stopped him, right?" Li Longji continued to ask before Gao Lishi finished speaking.
"Your Majesty, Xiaobao has placed an order to buy sugar in Dengzhou, saying that when a large amount of new garlic comes down, it is possible to concentrate on making sweet garlic. Therefore, the merchants who wanted to sell sugar to Silla immediately reselled the two Zhang and Wang families. No one dared to stumble. The candy transport vehicles gathered there to glance, and there was no end."
Gao Lishi replied with honor.
Li Longji put down his chopsticks and said, "Where is so much sugar? It is probably because the merchant brought an empty car and wanted to change things from Silla. If Xiaobao takes action, no one dares to object. When Fengzhi Logistics is in the past, do you know what Xiaobao is doing?"
"I don't know, I think it must have a deep meaning."
"I still need you to say, Xiaobao said when will he come back? Let him be punished as soon as possible, and I will punish him in Furong Garden. You are responsible. By the way, I will move the cooking utensils from the imperial kitchen and send a telegram to make me fried potato chips. I have waited and waited, and I dared to delay time."
Li Longji couldn't think of Zhang Xiaobao's follow-up actions, but he was thinking about the dishes Zhang Xiaobao promised to cook. He still doesn't know what the potatoes look like.
"Yes, I have recorded it. Calculate the time, Xiaobao may have set off. The leaders of various Turkic tribes will come with Xiaobao. Your Majesty will need to personally be appointed as an official to show the kindness of the Tang Dynasty."
Gao Lishi agreed, and was also looking forward to stir-fried potatoes and peppers.
"When I arrived in the capital, I guess I could decide the marriage and live together?" On the small river connecting Luoshui River to the capital, Zhang Xiaobao personally took the oars, and Wang Juan sat opposite Zhang Xiaobao. The two of them walked slowly along the way, chatting at the same time.
The only one on the boat was the two of them, and the others were on another boat. Zhang Xiaobao remembered what he said about the call from his home before leaving and asked Wang Juan.
"I have lived together since I was a child. Did I deliberately separate because of my engagement? I am not so hypocritical. Who dares to say bad things behind my back to ruin the reputation of our two?" Wang Juan replied without thinking much.
"No, that doesn't matter. I mean, look, we two are not young anymore, and we are now advocating late marriage. The main reason is late childbirth. After all, having a baby has an impact on a woman's body, and it is usually about the same age as around twenty.
But... that... Actually... if that... I just don't... don't reproduce human life. At our age, it's... right?"
This passage was intermittent by Zhang Xiaobao, and in the end he didn't say anything directly. Not only did he speak, his face turned red, and his hands were still rolling the oars. But if you look closely, you can find that when the oars were stuck on the water, they actually rippled in circles and rippled continuously, and they could no longer show the level of the oars pushing against the shore.
Wang Juan looked at the sky slantedly, sucking her nose. Seeing that the silence was too long, Fang asked: "You just say whatever you want to do. Do we have to be polite?"
"Ah? Tell me straight? Well, then I'll say that it's warm now. After the marriage is arranged, can we...can't... that, count the stars together when we go to bed?"
Zhang Xiaobao, who had tortured up his courage, finally said it out. After saying it, his whole body was exhausted and he was there.
Wang Juan stopped looking at the sky, turned to Zhang Xiaobao and said earnestly: "Xiaobao, your emotional intelligence is a little bit bad, don't count the stars. You should count the moon, be good."
After Zhang Xiaobao counted the moon for a while, the team entered the capital. Mojilian and his group bid farewell to Zhang Xiaobao and reported first, and learned the etiquette of meeting the emperor. There should be no rudeness.
Zhang Xiaobao muttered that there was a moon in the sky, a moon in the water, the moon in the sky, and the moon in the water was in the sky, and Wang Juan, who always smiled along the way, lived in the Zhuangyuan Building, and even the house in the capital was not returned.
What arrived ahead of Zhang Xiaobao and his party were a few new dishes produced in Jian'an greenhouse. Not many of them were also prepared to keep seeds for use. Some of the dishes they brought were given to Li Longji and some of them were eaten by their own home.
Li Longji, who was thinking about fried potatoes with peppers, heard that the eunuch on duty came, and did not take Mo Jilian to heart. The first person to ask was Zhang Xiaobao? Why didn’t he enter the palace?
"Go back to Your Majesty, Xiao... The governor Zhang and Deputy governor Wang returned to the Zhuangyuan Building. Even Zhang and Wang's family in the capital did not go. The young man heard someone report that Zhang Jiedu said on the way that there was a moon in the sky and a moon in the water. I guess he was sick and cold?"
The eunuch on duty also asked Zhang Xiaobao for reasons, and he had to pay money, so he naturally had to maintain it.
Li Longjixin was surprised, "The wind and cold have not been cured yet? He muttered all the way? Then I immediately issued an order to enfeoff the School of Deyi Medical. Will he bring his younger brothers and sisters with him, and will he bring a good doctor?
Oh, the sky, the moon, yes, I understand, what is in the moon? Chang'e, Xiaobao is old, and he should book the marriage and arrange someone... You should go there in person, tell Xiaobao that tomorrow morning, after I will suppress everything, I will discuss with the ministers about the marriage of the Deputy Envoy of the Bohai Jiedushi, I am hungry."
Li Longji finally became smarter. Although the clues to the guess were wrong, the result was the same.
As for whether it is appropriate to put a marriage of a minister in the dynasty where a fifth-rank official can participate, he did not consider it much. He believed that those who understand would naturally understand it, and those who don’t understand would also understand it.
The eunuch on duty was smart and not stupid. He didn't arrange imperial meals for Li Longji. He agreed and withdrew respectfully, and rushed to the top scholar building as fast as possible.
When he arrived at the place, he saw Zhang Xiaobao who was confused about the moon. Although Zhang Xiaobao didn't understand how to count the moon, he was still organized in other things. At this time, he was very careful in writing. His eyes were fixed on the paper in front of him, and his other hand was lightly lit up, murmured and sang.
"There is a moon in the sky, a moon in the water... Looking at the moon, thinking of the hometown, one in the water and the other in the sky."
After repeated several times, he said again: "I asked you all to count the moons for me. Do you still want to buy candy in my Tang Dynasty? Let's talk about it when I can count the stars."
The eunuch on duty was stunned. What happened to this Xiaobao? He sang and said.
Wang Juan, who had been by his side, burst into laughter, pinched the pen and took it out of Zhang Xiaobao's mouth, flew to Zhang Xiaobao and said, "Oh, Xiaobao, I have to admit that your emotional intelligence is a bit bad, but your IQ is absolutely fine.
If you ask you to count the moon for a few days, you can also use it to calculate others. Okay, after a while, I will ask you to count how many stars there are. Hum, the Lord has sent someone to see you, but will you still welcome it?"
"How many?" Zhang Xiaobao glanced at the eunuch and asked while getting up.
"Many, many, many." Wang Juan turned his face and said.
"Of course I know a lot, but..."
"Oh, Mr. Zhang, you sit down. The young man just came over to take a look. I heard that Mr. Zhang and Mrs. Wang came back. The young man wanted to grow wings and fly over to take a look, but he was on duty. Fortunately, the emperor was kind enough, so he sent the young man to come."
The eunuch on duty dared not let Zhang Xiaobao say something to greet him. If he hadn't been more confused by listening to the conversation between the two, he would not have let Zhang Xiaobao get up.
"What's the matter? After eating here later, let's go. I'll tell you to make a one-star meal in the kitchen, reduce one dish, and add a scrambled egg with tomatoes brought back from overseas."
Zhang Xiaobao did not speak politely to the visitor and gave instructions to the outside world.
When the eunuch on duty heard the word overseas, he felt a little more grateful in his smile. He had never eaten it before. He was not afraid that Zhang Xiaobao would keep him for dinner. He had just said that he was on duty and thought he would take it away in a food box. He hurriedly said, "Thank you, Mr. Zhang, uh~! I'm hungry."
"Huh? Oh~~! Go back and tell Your Majesty that I immediately order to transfer the Bohai Protectorate's Mansion to make 1,000 stones of rice into the palace." Zhang Xiaobao was stunned for a moment and understood that the person coming was learning from Li Longji's words. Because the rice in Northeast China has a long ripening period, it tasted better, so he said in accordance with the person's words.
The eunuch on duty blinked, looked at Zhang Xiaobao, and said, "Young Master Zhang, it's not about placing rice, it's... The young man suddenly remembered something. Your Majesty has something to say first. The court will be postponed tomorrow. Other matters will be postponed. First, discuss the marriage of the Deputy Jiedushi of Bohai. Mr. Zhang, seeing your Majesty's intention is to pay tribute to the Deputy Jiedushi of Bohai."
"Ah? Is there anything wrong? Juanjuan, don't look at the wall, follow me. The emperor is hungry. I should cook for myself as the emperor to show my loyalty. I can be honored to the emperor who is so taken care of by the governor of Bohai. As a minister, I am honored."
Zhang Xiaobao stopped cleaning up the case. He pulled up Wang Juan, whose face suddenly turned rosy, hurried out. When he arrived at the door, he turned around and said to the eunuch on duty: "Let's go together, don't wait for the meal, and then talk about it later."
"Okay, OK, Mr. Zhang, wait a little, Mr. Zhang..."
"Okay, it's so good. The two things, stir-fry together, taste fresh, spicy and refreshing. Xiaobei, Xiaoyuan, and you all, try them."
In the Furong Garden, Li Longji ate happily. The dishes were hot. They had just been fried and no one needed to try the poison. When he saw Xiaobei who came with Zhang Xiaobao, he lowered his head and tried hard to deal with the venison on the plate in front of him, he invited him.
Xiao Bei went to the palace and went home. He did not see the emperor's timidity at all. Hearing this, he raised his head slightly and curled his lips, "It's not delicious. I like to eat mashed potatoes. The sauce made by my brother himself, with fine chopped green onions, and watered it up, it will be fragrant."
"Oh, can it be made into other dishes?" Li Longji knew the same thing again. Seeing the sauce on Xiaobei's mouth, he smiled and asked, "Xiaobei, I will inspect all the officials of the Tang Dynasty for you, have you found it?"
When Xiao Bei was happy about this, he had greater power. He stretched out his tongue and took the sauce on the corner of his mouth back, and replied: "Not yet, when I got the news, I went to Sanshui County. Who should I check? Before I saw the emperor, the officials along the way were very obedient. No one spent money to greet me in the county. I will endure it first and wait for another place to talk about it."
"Then I'm waiting for our little bet to kill everyone." Li Longji didn't know why, but whenever he saw Xiaobe, he would be very happy. Unfortunately, he couldn't find it in the palace, so he could only look forward to better performance from Paner.
"Well, I will help Your Majesty relieve your worries. If anyone dares not listen to the emperor, I will go and deal with him." Xiao Bei said righteously.
Looking at Xiao Bei's serious look, Li Longji laughed and said goodbye to himself that there was a problem with the person Xiao Bei found, but it was no problem. Judging from Xiao Bei's cute appearance, he could be punished even if he was guilty.
As he looked at Li Longji, he looked at Zhang Xiaobao who was busy cooking, and Wang Juan who was wiping his sweat from time to time, and sighed again. Time passed so quickly. In a flash, both of them were getting older.
I remember when I wanted to have two people portraits, I was not as good as Xiao Bei? It seemed like I had a dream yesterday. Many places in the palace changed, the capital changed, and the Tang Dynasty also changed. Some of the civil and military officials in the court retired, and some left. Xiaobao and Juanjuan also changed, but no matter how they looked, they seemed to be just looking, and the calm and gentle eyes still did not show anger.
Pa, when Li Longji was immersed in his memories, Zhang Xiaobao brought the last dish, a total of four meats and four vegetables, four cool and four hot eight dishes, and a vegetarian soup with stewed soup. The fried potato shredded potatoes on the soup were burnt and browned, making people look like a work of art.
The dishes are not many, the quantity is large, and there is a share of the people who meet. Li Longji, who is happy, even let the palace maids and eunuchs who are serving aside to taste it.
Li Longji and Zhang Xiaobao were not polite either. They didn't say anything, but just pointed at the chair casually and asked to sit next to him.
Zhang Xiaobao, who had washed his hands, threw the towel to a eunuch, sat lazily beside Li Longji, leaned back, and didn't make any sound.
"Xiaobao, among the things you have people recovered from far away, are sweet potatoes, potatoes and corn really high?"
"High, especially potatoes, are easy to grow. They can be used as vegetables or rice, and yes, as snacks." Zhang Xiaobao said confidently. The snacks behind were added when he saw Xiaobei looking up.
"Oh, that means, even if I was affected by many places in the Tang Dynasty and the yield of rice and white flour sharply decreased, I could still survive the crops that don't choose the land, right?"
"Of course."
Seeing Zhang Xiaobao's bored look, Li Longji was not angry either. If it were someone else, except Zhang Zhong, who would dare to be like this? He would have been pulled down and chopped down. With a smile, Li Longji looked up at the sky and said to Zhang Xiaobao: "Xiaobao, look at the round moon in the sky, look carefully, have you seen the jade rabbit?"
Zhang Xiaobao didn't look up at all. Where did the moon come from at noon? Besides, even at night, there was only a crescent moon left today.
Li Longji must have done it on purpose. Zhang Xiaobao, whose face was almost green, muttered to himself, and then whispered to Wang Juan, and found that Wang Juan had become a personal person during the period when he came out of the throne of the throne, always liked to bow his head and his ears were still red.
Zhang Xiaobao and Li Longji, who were puzzled, said:
"See, Jade Rabbit pounds medicine."
"Seeing Jade Rabbit pounding medicine, Xiaobao, are you sick?" Li Longji came over. When he saw Wang Juan's appearance, he could guess that the two of them had a little ambiguous relationship with the moon.
