The style of the Queen Mother in Qing Dynasty is different

"I've said it several times, this is cake! Do you understand cake?"

The emperor looked at the cake in his hand, raised his head and said innocently: "Because there are eggs in the hair cake, so it is called a cake?"

Qiqige: "..."

The emperor: "It turns out that eggs are added, no wonder it is so soft and elastic. The bottom of the steamed cake is very good, but the yogurt on the top is not my favorite. The wet cake is not very good. But the yogurt and fruit are mixed together. It’s delicious to eat.”

Qiqige: "Ha! You still think you understand it quite well! You old hat!"

The emperor: How can I offend you, and you are inexplicably furious.

Qiqige distributed the rest of the cake to Aruna and the maid, and the emperor complained softly, "Isn't this made for me?"

Qiqige said coldly: "Eat less, how old are you, you will get fat if you eat sweets so late!"

The emperor: Tsk tsk, the mother's love of the queen mother is really short-lived.

The maids ate the cake and said auspicious words with smiles, wishing the emperor a long and healthy life. The emperor was cured by the cake and felt better. He readily gave a large reward.

After eating the cake, Qiqige asked the maids to go out, and she brought a set of clothes for the emperor, and asked him to go to the next door to change.

The emperor didn't understand what Qiqige was going to do, but he changed his clothes obediently.

Qiqige also changed a set of clothes for herself, and when the emperor came out after changing clothes, Qiqige waved to him.

"Go, I'll take you out to play."

Qiqige took the emperor and Aruna quietly in the carriage and went out through the back door.They did not bring other followers, but there were guards quietly protecting them behind them.

"Emperor Niang, where are we going?"

Qiqige said in a low voice, "Today is your birthday, Er Niang will take you to do some bad things, let's go around Huajie and Liuxiang."

The emperor's thinking seems to have stagnated, he really doesn't know what to say.

"It's just nonsense!" The emperor said sharply, "I am the emperor, and you are the queen mother. How can we go to such a place with our identities?"

"Hey! Isn't it your birthday today? Er Niang took you to find a beautiful girl, and we didn't do anything bad, just hold hands and kiss little mouths."

The emperor had no choice but to help his forehead. He must have done a lot of bad things in his previous life, so he has such a mother in this life.

The carriage wobbled forward, the emperor patted the carriage and told the driver to stop.

Qiqige quickly explained to him, "Don't go to Huajie and Liuxiang, I'm just kidding you! I'll take you to a good place, and you'll know when you go."

After about a quarter of an hour, the car stopped, Qiqige and the others got out of the car, the scene in front of them made the emperor stay where he was.

One by one, the lotus river lanterns flow down the water, like stars falling on the river.Many passers-by were looking at the lights by the river, and the emperor heard someone shouting.

"What day is it today, who is releasing the river lanterns? It's so beautiful!"

"Today is Longevity Day! It's the emperor's birthday!"

"Oh, these river lanterns are for the blessing of the emperor!"

Qiqige waved her hand in front of the emperor, "My lord! Don't be dazed, please come this way!"

Qiqige led the way and led the emperor onto a painting boat.

The boatman propped up the bamboo pole and tapped it on the bank, and the boat slowly slid to the middle of the river.

The emperor looked out, and the river was full of river lanterns, as if he was surrounded by stars.

Qiqige laughed and said: "It is said in the Buddhist scriptures: I am a recluse living in a troubled world. I should be like a lotus flower, not for pollution. I send you these lotus river lamps, and hope that they will drive away the darkness for you and illuminate your life. I also hope that no matter what others Anyway, we Xuanye will always be happy."

The emperor quickly lowered his head, picked up the cup in a panic, and pretended to drink tea.He was so moved that he was about to cry, but he had been taught to be strong since he was a child, and to keep his emotions out of the way. Facing Qiqige's birthday gift, he didn't know how to express his love and emotion. .

The emperor held back his tears, his throat seemed to be blocked by a ball of paper, he whispered in a hoarse voice, "Thank you, Queen Mother, I like it very much."

Qiqige smiled, "Don't thank me in a hurry, I have prepared other programs!"

The boat moved forward with the current, and the Lotus River Lantern seemed to accompany them. For a while, it followed them forward, and for a while, it seemed to be anxious and ran in front of them.

There are people on both sides of the river, today is the Emperor's Longevity Festival, you can go shopping at night, there are vendors setting up stalls, and the sound of various sales floats on the boat.

After admiring the river view for a while, the painting boat parked on the bank, and Qiqi dragged the emperor to visit the night market.

"It's rare to sneak out. Today you can experience the lives of ordinary people."

There was a small wonton seller on the street, and Qiqige paid for it and asked the vendor to cook two bowls.

The emperor and Qiqige seldom eat outside food, looking at the open-air wonton stall, the emperor still felt a little uncomfortable.

"Emiang, isn't this too clean?" The emperor whispered.

Qiqige replied in a low voice, "Today I will teach you a truth, if you don't do anything dirty, you won't get sick if you eat it."

The emperor glanced at Qiqige, which is really very useful.

Qiqige thought the emperor didn't believe it, so she pretended to be authoritative and explained: "The human body is miraculous and adaptable. People who have never done physical work will be very tired if they do it suddenly. In the same way, People who never eat small stalls may not be able to accept it in their stomachs."

The skin of the small wontons is very thin, and the pink and tender meat filling comes out from the inside.Qiqige looked at the little wonton and couldn't help swallowing.

"If we eat it once, it will hurt our stomach at most. If we eat it twice, we will get used to it, and we can eat more of it."

The vendor fished out the cooked wontons, Qiqige and Aruna shared a bowl, and the emperor himself had a bowl.

The aroma of chopped green onion and coriander floats to the nose, take a bite of the small wonton, the thin skin is sucked and swallowed, and the meat filling is so delicious that you can't wait to swallow your tongue.

After eating the small wontons, Qiqige led the emperor to continue walking.

A foul smell wafted from the front, the emperor covered his nose and almost spat it out.

"Is there a hut in front? What does this smell like!"

Qiqige: "This is not a hut! It smells like stinky tofu."

The emperor had never eaten stinky tofu, and such an indecent snack would not be served on his table.Qiqige excitedly dragged him to eat stinky tofu, "This is a delicacy in the world, we must try it."

Sure enough, there was a small stall selling stinky tofu in front of it. The stinky tofu was fried in oil until both sides were golden, and Qi Qige wanted to drool just looking at it.

As usual, she ordered two servings, one for the emperor, and the other for her and Aruna to eat together.

The emperor looked at the stinky tofu with disgust, "This stuff is too stinky, I don't want to eat it."

The peddler said with a smile: "Master, my stinky tofu looks stinky, but it tastes delicious!"

When the stinky tofu was fried, Qiqige asked the emperor to eat it together.

"In life, you have to have the courage to try! You are so old, but you have never eaten stinky tofu. It would be a shame if people found out!"

The emperor turned against the general, "Could it be that Er Niang has eaten it?"

"Although I haven't eaten it, I've heard of it. Why don't I try it now?" Qiqige also used the aggressive method.

"Be brave, I'll count one, two, three, let's eat together, whoever doesn't eat is a coward."

The emperor sighed, thinking to himself, this must be considered a birthday present!It's better to give the queen mother some face!

After Qiqige finished counting one, two, three, she, the emperor, and Aruna spoke together.

After taking the first bite, Qiqige almost vomited it out.

I don't know how many times this oil has been used repeatedly, and it has a strange smell.The fried stinky tofu was not good either. The surface of the tofu contained a lot of oil, making it greasy and disgusting to eat.

The emperor gritted his teeth and swallowed, he said hoarsely: "Emiang, does this mean that it smells bad and tastes good?"

Qiqige sighed, "It stands to reason that stinky tofu shouldn't taste like this!"

A passer-by next to him said kindly: "The restaurant you are eating is not authentic! Their food is not good, and their craftsmanship is not good. You should go to the front and look for it!"

Qiqige was a little embarrassed, she led the big children out to relax, but she stepped on thunder, and the relaxation turned into a bad heart.

Qiqige smiled embarrassingly, she still had the face to explain the truth to the emperor, "Look, does this look like life? We always think that when life is smooth, it will make some moths, tell you that you are thinking too much !"

The emperor nodded, "Yes, you are really good at playing tricks."

Although Qiqige was wronged, she still defended herself a few words, "Why did I make a moth? Life! It’s about being brave to try! If we don’t try, how will we know that this stinky tofu is unpalatable? It’s like , if the late emperor didn't marry me back then, how could you get such a good mother like me? This is the blessing of the late emperor for his courage to try!"

The emperor praised: "You will still put gold on your face as always."

"Hey! Why are you putting gold on your face? I'm a very good person!" Qiqige looked at the wrinkled emperor, and she said solemnly, "Don't worry, even if the road ahead is not smooth, Er Niang I will also be by your side."

Qiqige used to think that the crown prince was very good, and that he would inherit the throne smoothly, and there would be no situation where nine sons would win the throne.But she found that she was wrong, no one wants to be a prince who can't ascend the throne for a long time.

If the princes compete for the throne and fight each other, the emperor will be sad. Qiqige has limited ability and can't do much. All she can do is accompany her.

The emperor was also a little sad, "Thank you, Er Niang."

He is a husband, a father, and now a grandfather. He loves his wife and children, but only the Queen Mother loves him in this world.

"But Er Niang will leave me one day."

Qiqige said categorically: "That's impossible! I won't die even if you die! I'm in good health and know how to take care of it. I don't care about my life. I'm sure I can live to be a hundred years old!"

The emperor laughed angrily, "Could it be that I can't live to be a hundred years old?"

Qiqige sighed: "It should be a bit difficult. You have too many wives! You have too many children! Besides, you still have me angry at you, you must not survive me!"

The emperor didn't care about dignity, he mocked back. "I practice martial arts all the year round, and I am strong. I must outlive you!"

"I was born more beautiful than you, and I must live longer than you!"

The emperor: "I outlive you!"

Qiqige: "Don't refute! I outlive you!"
