An Lingrong is reborn, the reorganized team is killing like crazy
Chapter 163 Roasted Lamb
As the sky gradually darkened, a blazing bonfire was lit on the open space in front of Wanshu Garden. When An Lingrong and Juqing came out, they smelled the aroma of roasting meat.
"My lady, it smells so good, much better than the one we roast in the copper stove in the palace..." Ju Qing looked delighted, and An Lingrong also nodded with a smile.
The master and servant walked over there and after they sat down, An Lingrong saw the center of the open space. There were several racks placed over a bonfire with things being roasted on them. There were also palace servants standing nearby turning the racks. The fragrance was coming from there.
"What is that?" An Lingrong asked Ju Qing who was standing beside her.
"My lady, that's a whole roasted lamb..." Baoque had just stood in front of An Lingrong and answered when he heard her question.
"You're back?" An Lingrong was surprised. She was about to ask about how the yurt was moved, but she felt that the occasion was not appropriate, so she did not ask any more questions.
"Well, I asked around, but they all said they didn't know. But it's not their fault. Those guarding Wanshu Garden are all our guards from the capital. I'll go ask the people who are stationed here all year round tomorrow, and I should be able to find out." Baoque spoke, and An Lingrong nodded.
"You said that was a roasted whole lamb? Is the roasted whole lamb we usually eat really roasted as a whole?"
An Lingrong was surprised, because in the past, even if there was a roasted whole lamb on the menu, it was already cut up, and she had never seen how it was made...
After An Lingrong finished speaking, she took another closer look and saw that what was roasted on the rack was not only a whole sheep, but even the sheep's head was still there!
"It's actually roasted whole!" An Lingrong stared at the roasted whole lamb. As the campfire crackled, the aroma of roasting became more and more intense, and she couldn't help swallowing.
"Yes, my lady. Look at the color. It's a honey color that we can't achieve by using silver charcoal in the palace!" Baoque replied, swallowing lightly as he spoke.
"What are you looking at?" A voice came, and An Lingrong turned around with a smile, and saw Shen Meizhuang walking up to her and looking at the three of them, master and servant, with a smile.
"I'm looking at the roasted whole lamb over there." An Lingrong also spoke with a smile, and Shen Meizhuang also sat down below An Lingrong with a smile.
"It looks good. I have always disliked the smell of mutton, but it smells quite good today." Shen Meizhuang sat down and looked at the whole roasted lamb that was being turned over and roasted.
"If Sister Mei says so, then I will show off in front of her..."
An Lingrong looked at Shen Meizhuang with a smile, and then continued:
“I actually know this. I saw it in a travelogue, which described a lot of the local customs and eating habits of the north and south.
The sheep here are of different breeds from those in Beijing. Most of them are goats and fine-wool sheep. They eat fresh herbs and drink clear river water.
Therefore, the lamb here not only tastes more delicious, but also does not have the muttony smell of lamb.
The travel notes also say that even without adding spices, the mutton only has the aroma of meat..."
As An Lingrong spoke, they both sniffed the air.
"I have never heard of what you said. I think you can become a female scholar in the future..." Shen Meizhuang joked with a smile, and An Lingrong was not annoyed.
He just smiled and said, "Of course you can. Sister Mei, please call me Mr. An first..."
"You're so talkative!" Shen Meizhuang smiled and said:
"If it's really as you said, then I'm going to have a good taste today. What I disliked most in the past was the mutton smell, but today I can only smell the aroma of roasted meat..."
As Shen Meizhuang spoke, she looked towards the center. An Lingrong couldn't help but lean forward. Both of them kept their eyes on the roasted whole lamb.
"Sister Yi, Chun'er smelled this aroma as soon as she came out of the tent. In the past, I loved eating this roasted lamb when I was at home.
But my sister and sister-in-law don’t like the taste of mutton. I didn’t expect that sister Yi and Chun’er have the same preference. "
Chun'er came over at some point and said with a smile.
"Yes, I'm not picky about food and there's nothing I can't accept. Let's take our seats, the Emperor is coming..." An Lingrong also forced a faint smile and spoke.
Chun Er also smiled when she heard that. She sat down and said to An Lingrong, "Chun Er is never picky about food..."
Chun'er took a seat and looked towards the roasted whole lamb with a look of longing.
"The Emperor has arrived!" As Su Peisheng's voice came, everyone at the banquet stood up and saluted, saying, "May the Emperor be blessed with good health!"
The emperor took his seat, then raised his hand and said, "Everyone, stand up. Today's banquet is far away from the capital. Everyone, please don't be detained and be at your leisure..."
Upon hearing this, everyone bowed again and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty." Then they all stood up and sat down.
The emperor told everyone to do as they pleased, but with the emperor around, who dared to do as they pleased? However, what made An Lingrong feel that this banquet was quite good was that all the dishes were served hot!
Today's food includes not only the roasted whole lamb just cut from the rack, but also the hot lamb pot, and even the salty milk tea, which is warmed on the charcoal stove nearby...
No matter how it tasted, at least it was not eaten cold. What's more, the roasted whole lamb tasted really good. However, An Lingrong still didn't like eating white meat. She preferred the taste of meat dipped in seasoning powder.
"What do you think, Sister Mei?" An Lingrong looked at Shen Meizhuang and found that she didn't even touch the sauce powder.
"It's really good." Shen Meizhuang said with a smile, picked up another piece of mutton, put it in her mouth and nodded.
The two continued to eat...
"Your Majesty, I would like to congratulate you on the successful completion of this autumn hunt." Concubine Hua raised her glass to the emperor. The emperor nodded, and the two drank together.
Then the dancers came on stage, dancing to the melodious sound of the huqin...
An Lingrong looked at the dancers dancing in the venue and couldn't help but sigh in her heart. It was true that each place had its own customs. Not only the folk customs and habits, but even the dancing postures were different...
The dancing postures of dancers in Jiangnan and Beijing are mostly graceful, but the dancing postures of dancers on the grassland have a free and easy feeling of power!
Coupled with the special tone of the huqin, it makes people feel as if they are seeing a horse galloping on the grassland, which makes people's blood boil.
In this atmosphere, An Lingrong couldn't help but drink a few more glasses of kumis.
"Lingrong, look at the one leading the dance in the middle. She has a good appearance and figure." Shen Meizhuang leaned towards An Lingrong and said in a low voice.
An Lingrong looked at the dancer in the middle. Although she was not the best dancer, her figure was soft and charming. Her face had a sense of aloofness and aloofness...
"She is indeed good-looking..." An Lingrong answered in a low voice, her eyes still never leaving the dancer. Even as a woman, she felt that this girl was very unique!
"I think her temperament doesn't look like that of a dancer, but more like that of a lady from a wealthy family." Shen Meizhuang continued to speak. After listening, An Lingrong observed the dancer carefully again and then nodded.
Then he raised his eyebrows and looked at the emperor...
