After the palace maid's counterattack, the tyrant was fascinated

Sure enough, after Xuanyuan Yin heard this, his expression immediately changed and he said, "It's really unreasonable. This general's mansion simply mistook pearls for fish eyes.

After saying that, he turned to Yun Sanluo and said, "Concubine Ning, you must have had a hard time in the General's Mansion for so many years, right?"

Yun Sanluo sighed and said: "Your Majesty, everything has passed. Now I am very happy to have the Emperor."

Yun Sanluo's words made Xuanyuan Yin feel even more distressed.

The reason why Yun Sanluo deliberately told Xuanyuan that he had a bad life in the general's mansion had two main purposes.

The first is to distance herself from her relationship with the General's Mansion, especially her relationship with Yun Wanrou and Du Yun. Anything that happens to them in the future will have nothing to do with her.

The second was to find an excuse to convince Xuanyuan Yin that he knew how to make paper.

After this episode, Xuanyuan Yin returned to papermaking.

"Concubine Ning, I have ordered people to study making paper by myself before, but it was very difficult. How did you succeed in making paper?"

"Yes, Concubine Ning, this is not a trivial matter. Once this papermaking technology is successful, it will not only save a lot of money for the national treasury, but also benefit the people of Canglan Country. People can afford it in the future. Paper!”

Xuanyuan Yin and Chu Yanzhou knew that once papermaking was successfully invented, it would be of great importance and would lead Canglan Country into a new era.

Canglan Country has always been known as a country that relies on force to balance other countries. It is even ridiculed by other countries for only using brute force and having no idea.

In fact, there are many literati in Canglan Kingdom, but there is no place to show their talents.

Xuanyuan Yin has always wanted to improve Canglan Kingdom's military force while also promoting literature, but the rice paper alone stumped him.

If Yun Sangluo can really successfully invent papermaking, it will be a major breakthrough for Canglan Kingdom in literature.

"Concubine Ning, when will we start making paper?" Xuanyuan Yin couldn't wait to see Yun Sanluo making paper.

Yun Sanluo said softly: "Your Majesty, I still need to prepare some things. Please give me one day."

"Okay! Just give me whatever Concubine Ning needs. Just let Eunuch Xu know what you need."

Yun Sanluo nodded softly and responded. She didn't stay any longer and went back to prepare the sheep and scorpion hot pot.

Yun Sanluo knew how shocked Xuanyuan Yin and Chu Yanzhou would be when he proposed papermaking. After all, papermaking was so out of reach in this dynasty.

She had seen the rice paper produced in Liuli Country. Although it was expensive and highly touted, the paper was rough and yellowed.

Yun Sangluo had never used rice paper before. Every time she wrote, she used paper taken out of the space. Naturally, she ignored the paper currently used in Canglan Country.

Although the papermaking technology of the Liuli Kingdom is not perfect, it is the only one among many countries. For example, the Canglan Kingdom has not even mastered the papermaking technology and completely relies on purchasing from the Liuli Kingdom.

After Yun Sanluo left, Xuanyuan Yin and Chu Yanzhou still didn't recover for a long time.

"Your Majesty, if papermaking is really invented by Concubine Ning, all the ministers in the court will go crazy!" Chu Yanzhou said with excitement.

Xuanyuan Yin didn't know that once the papermaking technology came out, it would bring about earth-shaking changes to Canglan Country.

Especially the ministers in the court, most of whom are civil servants. They often complain to him, saying that rice paper is too expensive, and they are reluctant to use it on weekdays. If they want to practice calligraphy to save some rice paper, they have to make a sand table. Use it over and over again.

I believe that when Yun Sanluo's papermaking technology is successful, it will not only open the eyes of the ministers, but also block their mouths.

Didn't these people say that he favored Yun Sanluo? Let them see Yun Sanluo's strength this time. Who can compare with him?

Nishang Palace.

After Yun Sanluo returned to the palace, he told everyone: "The emperor will come over for a meal later. I will make a new meal soon. You should prepare it well!"

"Yes, Master!" the maids and eunuchs replied in unison.

Sheep and scorpion hot pot was something Yun Sanluo had long planned to make. She said to Xiao Zhuozi, "Xiao Zhuozi, first go to the imperial kitchen and ask for some lamb legs!"

When Xiao Zhuozi heard this, he immediately replied: "Yes, master, I will go right now!"

In addition to lamb legs, the small kitchen of Nishang Palace has all kinds of fresh vegetables, and Yun Sanluo asked Tinglan and Xianyue to prepare some side dishes.

Xiao Zhuozi worked very efficiently and brought back several legs of lamb in a short while. Yun Sanluo asked the cooks to chop the legs of lamb into several small pieces along the position of the lamb's vertebrae, and then ordered Everyone is cleaned.

After waiting for Tinglan and Xianyue to bring over a large pot of prepared sheep and scorpions, Yun Sangluo first put them into the pot one by one. The pot was filled with clean water, but Yun Sangluo added green onions, ginger and Sichuan peppercorns, and finally a little rice wine is poured in to better remove the fishy smell.

After everything is put away, boil the sheep and scorpion over a fire to make a bloody foam, then wash it again with water. When it is boiled for the second time, add cumin, pepper, cinnamon, bay leaf, and fenugreek. Fennel, dried chili peppers, salt and other various things, and finally a little seasoning is added to adjust the color.

The sheep and scorpions are cooked, and there is still a crucial step, which is to fry them.

Yun Sangluo ordered someone to light the fire, and then she heated the oil in a pot. After the oil was hot, she drained the cooked sheep and scorpions, put them into the oil pan and fried them again.

When Yun Sanluo poured the sheep and scorpions into the pot, there was a "sting" sound and a harsh sound. Yun Sanluo quickly stir-fried the sheep and scorpions. In an instant, the small kitchen was filled with bursts of aroma, and even the outside was full of fragrance. You can smell it.

When the sheep and scorpions were almost fried, Yun Sanluo put some bean paste in the pot, which made the aroma even stronger. People in the small kitchen took several deep breaths of the aroma.

Yun Sangluo saw that the sheep and scorpions were almost fried, so he took them all out and put them in the pot that Xiao Zhuozi had made. Then he poured in the soup that had been cooked before.

The fragrance became stronger and stronger in an instant, and it was so fragrant that it made people salivate.

"Bring this pot of sheep and scorpion to the stove in the house and simmer it for more than a while. You can eat it when the emperor comes."

Yun Sanluo asked Xiao Zhuozi to put the lamb and scorpion pot on the stove in the house. Because the lamb and scorpion are not easy to rot, it takes a longer time to cook, but when Xuanyuan Yin comes over, it will be ready to eat.

During this period, Yun Sanluo made some snacks, which can be used as snacks during the meal.
