One hundred and eighteen, clever tricks, governance villains(1/4)
Bai Zhi stepped forward and used a stick to pick the mouth of the big snake that was struggling with powerlessness. After looking at it, she said, "The poisonous fangs are still there."
The poisonous fangs are still there? Humph! 6 Xinyan sneered, "Since someone wants to kill us, there must be more than a poisonous snake in the yard room! Bai Zhi, sprinkle the medicine powder brought into a circle. Shu Yunliuyue Xiaohe and I stay in the circle first. You and Qingtong search the entire yard and catch the live ones first!"
Before entering the palace, 6 Xinyan knew that Wu Wan, who had a prejudice against her, would definitely find bad luck to her, so she specially brought Bai Zhi and asked her to prepare many different kinds of medicines in advance, which was one of them.
"Yes, Miss."
The yard is not small. If you only rely on them, you will probably not be able to finish the inspection in a few hours.
But with Baizhi here, everything is much simpler.
She sprinkled some medicine under the eaves far away from 6 Xinyan and others. In just half a quarter of an hour, several green snakes were about to crawl towards that place, followed by centipedes and spiders.
Except for Xiaohe, 6 Xinyan and others felt creepy even when they looked at it, and quickly lowered their heads and did not dare to look at it again.
"Baizhi, leave two snakes, pull out their teeth, kill the rest, and bury them!" 6 Xinyan Xun ordered.
The yard was clean quickly.
Mo Yunliuyue's legs were still shaking, and she didn't dare to enter the room. 6's heart was actually shaking, but she was a lady and could not be too obvious. "I think so. Qingtong and Bai Zhi checked two more rooms and sprinkled some insect-proof medicine at the same time. The three of us slept in two rooms, so we had a care to avoid accidents."
The clouds swept through the moon were nodding.
"Miss and I sleep in the same room." Xiaohe held Liu Xinyan's arm.
6 Xinyan couldn't help but smile, "Okay, you and me, and Bai Zhi, and the green tung comb the clouds and the moon."
"That's great! Miss!" Xiaohe cheered happily.
The shock just now was only a few moments before she was completely thrown away by her.
After her interruption, the mood of combing the clouds and looting the moon was much calmer.
It seems that this little girl is not completely useful. It is good to use it to adjust her mood at critical moments, Shu Yun thought.
At this moment, a gentle call came from the door, "Madam Gong!"
6 Xinyan walked out and saw Li Qinxuan standing at the gate of the yard. She breathed a sigh of relief when she saw her, "Madam Gong, I just seemed to hear a sound from you, but what happened?"
6 Xinyan said: "A maid was careless and accidentally smashed one of the items she brought. Miss Lao Li was worried."
"It's great that it's okay. Does Mrs. Gong need help?" Li Qinxuan asked with a smile.
6 Xinyan gave the same smile, "No need, I'm almost done."
"Then I'll go back first, and if you need help, please speak out."
"Miss Li, go slowly." 6 Xinyan watched her leave with a smile.
After Li Qinxuan's figure disappeared at the gate of the yard, Qingtong couldn't help but say, "Ms. Li is both polite and polite. As for that Miss Liu, she is so uneducated!"
6 Xinyan refused to comment, "Put it out first."
The few or two rooms were cleaned up, and it was time to eat. The eunuch who was responsible for delivering the meal brought the meal.
Shuyun opened it and was stunned, "Little father-in-law, is this weight wrong?"
The little eunuch raised his chin and said sharply: "I am only responsible for giving away this. This is not worthy of weight, and I don't understand it."
Shu Yun smiled and said, "Little father-in-law, you see, there are six of us in total. Your portion is enough for three people to eat. Can you please make some peace and give another one?"
The little eunuch cut, "Girl, the slave has already said that he is only responsible for sending him off, and other slaves cannot make the decision."
"Little father-in-law..." Shu Yun wanted to say a few more words, but the little eunuch turned around and was about to leave. "The slave still had to continue to deliver meals to the palaces, and the slave said goodbye."
"If you leave like this, I will tell the Queen Mother that you stole the meal." Liu Xinyan, who was standing under the eaves, said coldly.
The little eunuch immediately stood still, turned around and saw a beautiful woman standing not far away, with her dress light and beautiful as a painting.
He was stunned at first, and then said angrily: "You are just unreasonable to say this! If you don't say anything else in our palace, every eunuch and palace maid can eat every meal. In addition, the rewards from the masters of each palace are from time to time, who would be interested in stealing other people's meals?" Besides, it's not a rare dish!
6 Xinyan snorted coldly, "Do you steal or not? What you said is not the limit, what I said is not the limit, what the Empress Dowager said is not the limit! If the Empress Dowager knew that there were six of us here, you only sent three of them. What would you think about the Empress Dowager?"
The little eunuch almost jumped up, "Slave...the slave is just sent to him as required, and the same is true for the other two yards. It's useless to force a slave!"
6 Xinyan said: "There are only three people in the other yards, so the amount you give is naturally enough, but there are six people here, so how can you get this enough?"
"Which yard is not the master of the slave, but the slave is just responsible for sending it!" The eunuch's face was red, and he said unwillingly after a while: "At most, after the slave has finished sending it, go to the imperial kitchen to see if there is any left."
6 Xinyan looked at him and must have really not known it, so she said, "Don't be so troublesome! Let's do this, I just saw an abandoned kitchen in Baihua Palace, and I'll send some oil, salt, soy sauce, chili and vinegar to come."
Seeing that the little eunuch was about to jump again, 6 Xinyan took out a silver from her sleeve, "If you bring it, the silver will be yours. If you can't bring it, then see the queen mother and choose it yourself."
Do you still need to choose? The little eunuch curled his lips, "The slave is back soon."
Bai Zhi asked: "Miss, are you going to make it yourself? But there are no ingredients!"
6 Xinyan curled her lips and smiled, "On the way I came just now, I saw an abandoned lotus pond, which should have lotus roots, Qingtong, go dig two pieces of lotus roots."
Bai Zhi widened her eyes and said, "Miss, this is the palace!"
Run to the palace to touch the lotus root? Didn’t you agree to follow the rules when you came?
"Miss, I'm going too!" Xiaohe quickly raised her master and looked at her. "In the past, I often went to the river to touch lotus roots in the village, but I have experience and are better than the aunts next door."
"It's urgent to follow the power." 6 Xinyan shrugged at Bai Zhi, then looked at Xiaohe with a smile, "Xiaohe, look at you!"
"Yes, Miss, please make sure to complete the task!" Xiao He followed Qingtong excitedly.
The little eunuch quickly sent the seasonings and took the money and left happily.
After a while, Xiaohe came back covered in mud, holding two pieces of mud in her hand, and ran towards Liu Xinyan excitedly, "Miss, I am better than Sister Qingtong. I touched this lotus root!"
6 Xinyan stretched her arms out of disgust, tapped her forehead, and prevented her from getting close to her, "Xiaohe is the best! Go and take a shower and change her clothes!"
Bai Zhi started to wash the lotus roots cleanly, cut them into diced, and then cut them a few red peppers, and then began to ignite in the stove.
She lived in the village for several years and lived with the aunts in the village. She learned some of these basic skills.
6 Xinyan boiled the pot in boiling water over and over again. After it was absolutely clean, she started pouring oil and stir-frying the lotus root.
Her level is average, but except for Bai Zhi, the people who came here, were all people who only know how to eat and not work, so she had to go on the battle herself.
6 Xinyan made spicy and sour lotus root diced rice, but the dish was simple and could handle it.
After the oil is hot, pour in the lotus root diced lotus root and stir-fry, then add a little chili and soy sauce, and finally add vinegar.
Very good, the sour and spicy smell spread in the house, making the hungry people growl.
"Miss, it smells so good!" Xiaohe leaned her head and her little claws moved from time to time, and she wanted to reach out and grab a piece immediately.
"Don't steal it! This is for my grandmother." 6 Xinyan saw her actions and immediately stopped her.
"Ah? Why?" Xiao He said disappointed: "Miss asked me to touch the lotus root. Isn't it because the meals sent are not enough, so I specially added dishes? If this is sent away, what will we eat?"
"We came six people, and Yang Cairen knew very well, but the imperial kitchen still only sent three people to the weight, which means that someone was deliberately making trouble behind the scenes and couldn't get along with us! We have to stay in this palace for several days. If the first meal is easily let go, it will be like this in the future!"
"But this is the palace, and the old lady is not going to do anything about this!" Xiao He said in confusion.
"The old lady can't make the decision, someone can make the decision!" 6 Xinyan narrowed her eyes slightly, and the light flashed.
On the first day of the Feng family, the Empress Dowager would invite Feng to have dinner with her. She pretended not to know and sent it to Feng family. Then she would meet the Empress Dowager. With the Empress Dowager's shrewdness, she would know what happened at a glance.
Before leaving, 6 Xinyan reminded: "Qingtong with me, you can wait here, don't run around! I left half of it and didn't stir-fry it, and I will stir-fry it again when I come back!"
In Wanshou Palace, the Emperor called Feng and Gong Jin to have dinner together, but suddenly heard from the palace servants: "Empress Dowager, Mrs. Gong is delivering vegetables to Mrs. Gong."
The emperor frowned, "Abing, what do you mean by your granddaughter-in-law? Are you still afraid that the Ai family will be hungry?"
Feng said hurriedly: "The Empress Dowager calms down! Zhuzhu is filial to his wife, probably because she saw something delicious and wants to share it with her wife! It's all the blame for her. She didn't tell her that the Empress Dowager would invite her wife to have a meal together, which made her joke."
The meaning of maintenance in this sentence is self-evident. The empress dowager looked at her and said to the palace servant: "Come in, the Ai family also wants to see what good things it is."
6 After Xinyan thanked the eunuch who was passing the message, she walked into the hall with a food box, "My wife, please see the Queen Mother!"
"Get up." The Queen Mother said, "What good things did you send to A Bing?"
"The Queen Mother," said 6 Xinyan hesitantly: "My wife didn't know that my grandmother had accompanied you for dinner, so she came rashly. This dish is really common, I'm afraid I can't get into the Queen Mother's eyes. My wife will not show off her ugly things, so she will take her back first."
The Queen Mother's eyes flashed, "Ai family forgives you for being innocent, please reveal it and take a look."
"Then my wife will be ugly." 6 Xinyan opened the food box, and a sour and spicy aroma suddenly spread out, and the person who smelled it was very excited.
"It smells so good, Zhuzhu, what is that?" Gong Jin asked.
"Sigu, this dish is called sour and spicy lotus root! The ingredients used are lotus root. The lotus root is cold in nature and sweet in taste. It is used raw to cool blood and disperse stasis, treat fever, thirst, vomiting blood, hot water, etc.; it can benefit blood, stop diarrhea, strengthen the spleen and appetite. In autumn, nourish the lungs and enter the lungs, sour and sour, and help the liver qi. This sour and spicy lotus root is a must-eat for health care in autumn!" 6 Xinyan said: "It seems that the imperial kitchen of the palace is indeed worthy of being an imperial kitchen, and it has been studied for health care with ingredients."
The Empress Dowager said, "It smells quite attractive, and it looks good in color. A Bing, can you let the Ai family enjoy the filial piety specially sent by your granddaughter-in-law?"
"Don't be respectful." Feng said: "Pearls, bring them up quickly."
"Yes, grandmother." 6 Xinyan took the food box and took a few steps closer. After taking it, a palace maid took it, put it in front of the empress dowager, and took a piece of gold-edged jade plate in front of her.
The Queen Mother picked up the ivory chopsticks, picked them up and put them in her mouth to taste them carefully for a while, then nodded, "No, the sour taste is moderate, the spicy taste is not obvious. It's indeed a good dish! A Bing, Jin'er, you can try it too."
Two other palace maids who cooked a piece of food, held a piece of it in Feng's and Gongjin's plate. After eating a piece, their eyes lit up and looked at 6 Xinyan, "It's really good."
The Empress Dowager said: "Mrs. Gong Shao has made great contributions to serving the dishes. I have sent the oral orders of Ai's family to reward Mrs. Gong Shao according to the dishes delivered to Wanshou Palace today!"
6 Xinyan knelt down and thanked her, "Thank you the Empress Dowager! My wife will not disturb the Empress Dowager and her grandmother's fourth aunt for dinner, and my wife will leave."
When he turned around, he heard the queen mother behind him say, "This soup is a little cold. It must be that the eunuch who delivered the meal has not controlled the time. Let the supervisor of the imperial kitchen preach and preach well!"
"Yes, Empress Dowager."
