Daqin: Zulong's Traveling Frog

Chapter 167 Peking Duck
"Aromatic, oily but not greasy!"

After only one mouthful, Qin Wangzheng said in surprise.

The shredded pork is tender and refreshing, accompanied by the aroma of barbecue.

The whole dish tastes very good, any more is too salty, and one less is too bland.

Under the precipitation of fine salt, Qin Wangzheng took another bite, reminiscing about the dish in the corner of his mouth.

Zhao Gao watched Qin Wangzheng eat with relish, and swallowed his saliva!

Who can resist the temptation of delicious food?

Qin Wangzheng asked: "Want to eat?"

Zhao Gao knelt on the ground with a thump, his face turned pale with nervousness, and he said sharply: "Your Majesty, I dare not be humble!"

Even if Qin Wangzheng allowed it, Zhao Gao did not dare to trample on Qin Wangzheng's food, not to mention that Qin Wangzheng was only asking, Zhao Gao was so nervous that he would die, how could he agree!
However, Qin Wangzheng only glanced at Zhao Gao momentarily, then turned his head to look at Xiaozhinu.

It turned out that Qin Wangzheng's question just now was for Xiao Zhinu!
Zhao Gao breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that I am being sentimental!
In this way, Qin Wangzheng and Xiaozhinu tasted the food from another world.

A few days ago, Xiao Zhinu traveled to the Qing Dynasty, found a Beijing roast duck restaurant on the street, and sneaked into the restaurant.

The newly prepared Peking duck was quietly brought back to Xianyang City for Qin Wangzheng to taste.

Seeing Qin Wangzheng eating with gusto, the little child slave felt at ease.

He came and went in a hurry, the little childish slave didn't even go to the palace, and he didn't send photos to Qin Wangzheng, so he rushed back without stopping.

It happened that Qin Wangzheng was angry because the food was too bland. He was used to eating delicacies from the mountains and seas, big fish and meat, and Qin Wangzheng lost his appetite.

But he was still very hungry, so he ordered Shang Shi Ling in the palace to come up with some new tricks!
But Shang Shiling couldn't find any new recipes, so he could only silently leave and ponder them by himself.

If you can't figure it out, you will drag it out and chop it up!
It happened that Xiao Zhinu brought Peking duck and gave Qin Wangzheng a feast.

The Shang Shi Ling in the palace was also amazed, so he imitated the Beijing roast duck and made the only roast duck in Qin Dynasty.

Although there are not many seasonings of later generations, Qin Wangzheng just likes the smell of bacon and is not too picky.

But Qin Wangzheng also had a novelty about Peking duck, so he ordered Shang Shiling to have two meals a day, and he couldn't miss the roast duck.

Although there are delicious delicacies, Qin Wangzheng is still dull. Naturally, it is because of the undercurrent of the empire, and his health is deteriorating, and he is about to decline.

And the long-awaited way of longevity is still out of reach!

In the dim night, Qin Wangzheng slowly picked up the brush and reviewed the memorial under the faint candlelight.

Even when he was on a parade, Qin Wangzheng was still correcting the memorials.

Coupled with the boring things these days, Qin Wangzheng suddenly clenched his fists.

The huge imperial army has always been shrouded in a layer of chilling tranquility.

However, the quieter the situation, the more peaceful Qin Wangzheng was.

This made Qin Wangzheng feel a sense of crisis, and doubts flooded in like summer rain.

"Is the scene I least want to see happen?"

Qin Wangzheng asked himself.

Zhao Gao turned to Qin Wangzheng, a little at a loss, picked up a cup of brewed tea in a panic, bowed his body and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, everything will be fine!"

"All signs are nothing but a test given to Qin by heaven!"

"After the storm, there will always be a rainbow!"

Three short sentences made Qin Wangzheng heave a sigh of relief.

But comfort can only soothe one's mood. The real situation is not as simple as Zhao Gao thought.

Right now, all the elders of the empire have left, and the left and right prime ministers are old, with white eyes. It is not enough for the empire to be controlled by a frail old man! ,
The huge unified empire needs to be nourished by new blood, so that it can continuously send new blood to Qin!
The chariots of the empire moved slowly, and the army paced along the road with the carriages.

After four parades successively, he declared his morality and power, but Qin Wangzheng still couldn't let go of the country.

In particular, Chudi is the area most prone to riots.

The state of Qin had just unified the world, and the only riot was Chu, and there were four great nobles in Chu, so many people would gather if they raised their arms.

And Chu Nangong's "although there are three families in Chu, the death of Qin must be Chu" has become the nightmare of Qin Wangzheng.

Is my great Qin going to perish in the state of Chu?
Under the weak candlelight, the little childish slave spread out the geomancy map, marked a piece of land, and wrote on the bamboo curtain paper: Xiao He's name.

Pei County.

A squadron of a hundred soldiers arrived at the gate of the Peixian government office.

When the hundred-man army arrived at the gate of the Fuya, the officials in the Fuya quickly greeted it.

More than 100 elite soldiers of the Great Qin Dynasty walked neatly, wearing black armor, and their sharp spears shone coldly under the reflection of the sun, which made everyone's necks chill, and they stayed away early and dared not approach.

All the officials in Pei County were terrified!

"Who is the county lieutenant? I am Dong Yi, the captain of the Great Qin Dynasty!"

"The next official is here, and the next official is the county captain of Peixian County." The county captain of Peixian bowed his body, not daring to raise his head.

Immediately afterwards, Dong Yi spoke again: Xiao He is here? "

Dong Yi's majestic voice echoed through the sky. He was worthy of being a soldier. His voice was loud and his lung capacity was amazing.

The audience was completely silent, everyone exclaimed, and many people desperately pulled out their ears, thinking that they had heard it wrong.

Xiao He himself was confused by this sudden good thing.

Seeing no response, Dong Yi asked again, "Where is Xiao He?"

"The next official is here!" The chief official Xiao He came out from the crowd, acting calmly.

Dong Yi frowned, looked Xiao He up and down, and asked, "Are you Xiao He?"

Xiao He was neither humble nor overbearing, without a trace of turbulence on his face, he said solemnly: "It is a humble job!"

Dong Yi smiled lightly, he was indeed a talented person who was favored by His Majesty, he behaved dignifiedly, did not speak rashly, and his words and deeds showed the demeanor of a great talent.

From the county magistrate, I learned that Xiao He is a respectful and diligent official, with outstanding achievements in government, a poor and simple family, little right and wrong, and a dignified and clean official life.

Only then did Dong Yi nod in satisfaction, but Xiao He was not delighted by it, but resisted instinctively.

How could a dignified imperial captain suddenly come to Pei County?

Just to see me?
Dong Yi gently took Xiao He's hand, and said with sincere eyes: "Mr. Xiao He, Your Majesty envies your talent and courage, and has recruited you to serve as an official in the court."

"You come with us first, and then I will send someone to escort your wife to Xianyang."

Listening to Dong Yi's words, Xiao He frowned.

He has served as an official in the county government for many years. He has never done anything out of the ordinary, nor has he achieved high political achievements. Why would Qin Wangzheng recruit him to serve as an official?
Xiao He's character was too reserved, so he had no courage or courage for a long time.

I just hope to keep myself safe in Peixian County and live a simple life with my wife and children.

This is also the reason why Xiao He was buried by Da Qin.

The sudden failure to choose made Xiao He even more worried, but he could only resist the panic in his heart and thanked, "Thank you, sir!"

After a night of rectification, Xiao He was escorted by Dong Yi's army to Qin Wangzheng's car.
