Eighth Master cuts leeks in Qing Chuanwen
Chapter 64
Prince Yinfeng smiled and said to Yunxu: "I heard that you have cooked a lot of kidney and yang meals for him in the past two days, eighth brother, is there anything that is particularly effective? Does the fourth brother eat it or not?"
Yunyu smiled, but before he could speak, fourth master Yinzhen said with a headache: "Prince, don't you have something important to do today, why are you chatting here? It will be the day of the banquet soon, although this invitation is not a big one It is not a trivial matter, if the prince has a problem at the banquet, presumably other princes who do not deal with it will definitely grab the prince's pigtails and squeeze hard."
What Yinzhen said makes sense. This time, the banquet coincided with Gao Shiqi's birthday banquet, so the crown prince planned to be a hands-off shopkeeper, so he would not take the initiative to host the birthday banquet for Gao Shiqi. His face is too big Have some?
But in the final analysis, the crown prince still wants to take a look. Tomorrow is a banquet, and the crown prince is specially prepared to take a look, just take a look, and urge the cooks to get it.
The prince said: "Hey, what could go wrong? Don't you invite banquets like this on weekdays? I don't know how many times I have invited banquets, but I haven't seen any trouble."
Yunxu wanted to tell him, don't talk about it, after all, Yunxuan felt that the matter of inviting a banquet this time was not easy, Gao Shiqi took the initiative to "trick", maybe Gao Shiqi was doing something tricky, or maybe it was Yunxu's thinking too much.
The prince said: "All right, then I will go and have a look at it first, and I will come back later."
Just as the prince was about to step away, he heard a voice calling out loudly: "It's not good! It's not good! Prince, His Royal Highness!"
The prince frowned, and said in a cold voice: "Whoa, what's the matter? This is the Forbidden Palace! Do you think you are at home?"
The guard trembled in fright, kowtowed quickly, and said: "His Royal Highness, the slave didn't mean to offend, it's just... it's just the side of the dining room, it's not good."
"what?"
The prince said just now that there was nothing wrong, and that he had never made a mistake in hosting a banquet in his life, so he didn't know that the mistake just happened.
The prince said: "What's going on?"
The guard said: "Returning to the prince, this... suddenly someone came to the dining room and said that the ingredients in the dining room were lost, lost."
"Lost?" The prince said, "What do you mean lost?"
The guard said: "It's not that it's lost, it's just... it was changed out of nowhere."
"This time, according to the prince's instructions, I specially prepared fish food, but... the cooks today saw that all the fresh fish that had been prepared had changed. For some reason, all of them had turned into stale fish. One, one is useless! What can I do!"
All the live fish have been turned into dead fish, and as for the dead fish, all have been turned into fish parts. It is not known who did it, but it cannot be found out anyway.
The guard said: "The cooks said that tomorrow is the banquet, so they will be too busy, so they have prepared all the fish these days. There are quite a few live fish, and they are all kept in the water tank of the dining room. Look, somehow, all... all dead!"
When Prince Yinreng heard this, his expression was quite ugly, he snorted coldly, and said: "Who dares to make trouble! Hmph, I know it well, it must be the gang of the uncle's party! I will go to them to settle accounts now!"
"Prince." The fourth master Yinzhen stopped the prince and said: "There is no proof, no evidence, it's not good to go looking for it like this."
"No proof?" The prince said: "Dead fish is the best proof! Besides them, who would not want me to look good at the banquet? It must be them! And Gao Shiqi, I have already seen that something is wrong with him, It's such a big face to ask Ben Gong to hold a birthday banquet for him!"
Yunxu didn't want to take care of this nosy business at first. After all, he didn't invite the banquet himself. As for the matter of fish and meat, he knew it with his toes, and it would definitely be inseparable from partisan disputes. Avoid it if you can.
He didn't want to talk at first, but he didn't know that "Ding!", he heard the system beep, and the large characters of the system were displayed on the left side of Yunxuan.
[Mission Sixteen: Turn hostility into treasure! 】
Task requirements: ease the conflict between the uncle and the prince, and avoid Suo'etu's rebellion.
Yunxu raised her eyebrows, the system actually wants to participate in factional disputes by herself, of course, others are fighting, but she wants to ease it in the cracks?Isn't this more difficult than fighting for it?
Yunhu thought, anyway, there are so many tasks, so I don't want to take this task by myself, no matter how good the rewards are, it will save me a lot of trouble, so after weighing it, I still plan not to take it.
how do you know...
Ding!
Task reward: 2000P space points; 2 kinds of crops can be planted randomly; successfully avoid the NO.333BE ending.
BE ending?
Yunxu immediately inquired about the 333rd BE ending calmly.
[NO.333BE ending: Suo'etu rebelled and forced the palace, and the uncle's party was wiped out. Because your adoptive mother was the uncle's biological mother, you were involved in it, captured by Suo'etu, tortured to death. 】
Yunxuan: "..." So there is such an ending?
In history, Suo'etu did not rebel, but Suo'etu did have the possibility of rebellion.Suo'etu is closely related to the prince. He is a staunch princeling. If the prince is in power, the Suo'etu family will continue to enjoy great favor and become the number one in the court.
Logically speaking, Prince Yinreng is the heir apparent, and it is not just a matter of time to take the throne, but there is still an uncle party headed by Mingzhu in the imperial court.Mingzhu and Suo'etu were mortal enemies, they were stumbling each other, the uncle party and the princeling party did not deal with each other, and no one obeyed the other, so most of the court was divided into two factions, of course, there were some people watching the excitement and gathering in secret.
Yunyu came here through time travel, and has been avoiding all kinds of party disputes, and has never really stood in line, but here comes the problem, the eighth master's adoptive mother is indeed the uncle's biological mother, and there is indeed a relationship between them.
So according to Suo'etu's disposition, it makes sense to be careful, cut the weeds and root out the roots, and want to implicate Yunxi.
As time went by, Kangxi disliked the prince more and more, and the prince's status was in jeopardy. At this time, Suo'etu was also ready to move, but Kangxi was smart, and he knew what Suo'etu was thinking, so he just found a crime. Suo'etu was dealt with, before he did it.
Yunhu squinted her eyes in thought, that is to say, if she didn't accept this task, then after this banquet, the relationship between the uncle party and the princeling party would intensify, and she would be implicated at that time, so it would not be worthwhile.
The more the prince said, the more angry he became. How has he suffered such a loss in the past 20 years?Dang even lost his composure, and was about to step away when he heard a voice saying.
"Prince, don't be impatient."
It was Yunxi who spoke.
【Accept the task】
Yunxu pressed the button to accept the task, and said: "What the fourth brother said makes sense. At this time, there is no proof, and even if you find them, you can't come up with anything."
"Then let them be arrogant? I have never been so ashamed before." The prince said dissatisfied.
Yunyu said: "Prince, don't worry too much. Others use some tricks to turn live fish into dead fish and chop dead fish into pieces. They just don't want the banquet to go smoothly. If the prince can arrange the banquet smoothly , Those arrogant people will definitely be slapped in the face."
The prince said: "But, the fish is not fresh anymore, how can I treat you to a feast?"
The prince played a clever trick. He knew that although Gao Shiqi was from the south, he didn't like fish, so he asked the cook to cook a fish banquet. The live fish was the freshest. He bought it in advance, made a reservation, and waited for today.
This time the banquet is a special fish feast, so there are not too many other meats in the dining room. Even if there is meat, it is meat like stewed soup. Such meat is not good-looking, how can it be used as meat for the banquet? ?It is absolutely impossible.
So the current situation has come, if it is a fish feast, the fish is not fresh, if it is not a fish feast, and the meat is temporarily searched, and Qing Fengsi cannot find so much meat temporarily, otherwise the skylight will be opened.
The prince said coldly: "It's really vicious! If this dead fish is brought up, someone will definitely say that this palace is disrespectful to the emperor, and the banquet is so perfunctory. But if there is a meat feast at this time, the meat is only a temporary perfunctory , the banquet is bound to be ugly, and it will be said to be perfunctory, but I am not human inside and out."
Yunyu said: "Prince, maybe my younger brother can help a little bit, I wonder if I can go to the dining room?"
The most urgent task right now is to resolve the crisis of the fish feast. As long as the crown prince survives the fish feast safely, then Gao Shiqi and the uncle's party can't find any faults, and they won't fall out at the banquet.
Hearing this, the prince clapped his hands and said: "Yes! The eighth brother is good at cooking, maybe he can save Bengong! Let's go, Bengong will go to the dining room with you to have a look."
The fourth master Yinzhen also understands the truth of this. Although he didn't know that the fish banquet caused Suo'etu's rebellion, he also saw that this was a dispute between the princeling party and the uncle's party. Now he has not succeeded in gathering power, and everything is attached to Under the name of the princeling party, if the prince made a mistake at this time, it would be difficult to handle.
Fourth master said: "I will go with you too."
The three of them went to the dining room together. The cooks who were in charge of hosting the banquet were at a loss for what to do. When they saw the prince and others coming, they immediately greeted him: "Greetings to the prince, fourth master, and eighth master! Greetings to the prince and the second master !"
The prince said: "Where's the fish? I'll take a look."
The head cook immediately led them to the jar, and looked down...
Good guy, I really turned my stomach.
A whole bunch of live fish turned into dead fish, presumably it was done last night, if it wasn't because of the cooler weather, the dead fish in this tank would be smelly today.
When the prince saw it, his scalp became numb with anger, and he said, "How unreasonable!"
"Not only that, but also!" The deputy manager led them to look at the fish section again.
A lot of fish need to be marinated in advance, so cooks prepare it the night before, chill it with ice, and it will be usable today without spoiling.
how do you know...
The head cook pointed to the messy cuts of fish, and said: "This whole pickled fish has become a mess, isn't it chopped up by random knives? If it looks like this, if it is brought to a banquet, it will be fine. I'm afraid the emperor will blame him!"
It's so unlucky, chopping it up like this is not a good luck at all, who doesn't think it's unlucky when it's brought out?
The chief cook knelt down and said, "Prince, please forgive me! The villains don't know why this happened. Because of today's banquet, the villains came early on purpose. Who would have known...then who would have known to come in and have a look , it just...it became like this."
Because the fish feast was messed up temporarily, the cooks were also afraid of taking the blame. This is an innocent disaster.
The crown prince was angry, the cooks panicked, the fourth master frowned, only Yunxi, after looking around the dining room, came back and said: "It's okay, the fish feast can still go on as usual."
"Still as usual?!" The chief cook was astonished, and stammered: "Ba, Baye, these fish are not fresh anymore, and the taste of the cooked ones must not be good. If you serve them up, the emperor... the emperor will be furious when he sees Long Yan , Little ones, I'm afraid my life will be lost."
Yunhu said: "It is true that the fresher the fish, the better, but who said that only live fish can be delicious?"
"This..." Shan Fu was puzzled.
The prince said: "The eighth brother must have a way to rescue him?"
"Exactly." Yunhu nodded and said, "Please help me find some large intestines and sauerkraut."
"Big, big intestine?" The butler was confused, big intestine?Isn't the large intestine a pig's offal? What does this have to do with fish?
When it comes to fish meals, they are all elegant and elegant, with a special style. Eating fish and reciting poems is simply a paradise for literati.
For such an elegant thing, when Yunhu suddenly mentioned the "large intestine", it was extremely abrupt!
Yunhu said: "Indeed, it is the large intestine."
The cook didn't dare to say much, so he hurried to find the ingredients as soon as he folded the stack.
Yunxu pointed at the dead fish and said, "If these fish are dead, they must not be fresh after steaming, but they can be made into stinky mandarin fish."
That's right, Fourth Master thought of it all at once, stinky mandarin fish, the last time I ate stinky mandarin fish, the taste is extremely strong, because it is marinated fish, so it doesn't need to be too fresh at all, even if you don't use live fish.
The authentic method of stinky mandarin fish is obtained through pickling, so there is no need for live fish, these fish are just right.
Yunyu said again: "Some are made of stinky mandarin fish, and some are made of Su-style fried fish. There are salty and sweet, and it is not monotonous."
Shan Fu said: "It's just... what can I do with these pieces of fish?"
All the live fish turned into dead fish, and the dead fish were simply cut into a mess and chopped with knives. They were of different sizes and completely irregular, even if they were Soviet-style fried fish.
Yunxu didn't mean to be troubled, and said: "These fish sections are irregular, and they can't be fried fish in Soviet style. Let the cooks do it now and slice all the fish sections into fish fillets. The thickness is moderate, not too thin, and not too thick. thick."
"fillet?"
Although the cook was surprised, he still responded, and immediately asked the cooks to take action to slice the fish into fillets.
This time, the large intestine is ready, how can the chefs let Ba Ye clean the large intestine himself?So these large intestines are cleaned up.
"Baye, you want large intestines and sauerkraut."
Yunhu looked at the large intestine and sauerkraut and was completely satisfied.
The fourth master Yinzhen thought of the deliciousness of pickled fish and Su-style fried fish. Seeing Yunxuan had another idea at this moment, he couldn't help but twitched faintly in his stomach, and said, "I don't know that my eighth brother is going to use large intestine and sauerkraut to make it." what?"
Yunhu smiled and said: "The fish is not fresh. The best way is to make spicy dishes. Once it is spicy, it can cover up the fishy smell. There is nothing better. In addition, large intestines and sauerkraut are both very flavorful ingredients. It can cover up the stale smell of the fish, so it is natural to make a fish with sausage and a fish with pickled cabbage."
Fatty sausage fish is a Sichuan dish. Many people have eaten boiled fish, but they have never tried fat sausage fish, but fat sausage fish is Yunxuan's favorite. It tastes a thousand times more delicious than boiled fish.As for the sauerkraut fish, it is a must-have dish that everyone has eaten, especially for girls. Many girls especially like sauerkraut fish. During the lunch break, we will meet to eat pickled fish.
These two fish dishes happen to be of the rich flavor type, so there is no need for too fresh fish at all. You only need to marinate the fish to taste, and it will be naturally fresh and delicious.
In other words, if you use too fresh fish, it will be ruined.
The chefs went to fillet the fish, and Yunhu prepared the seasoning ingredients, marinated the sliced fish, and then heated it in the wok. The movements were swift and powerful.
The prince and fourth master watched together, and after a while, they smelled a fragrance.
What Yunhu cooks first is the fish with fatty intestines, fresh and tender fish fillets, cut the fatty intestines into sections, and add some ingredients to the bottom, such as fresh bamboo shoots, duck blood, bean sprouts, green bamboo shoots, various balls, tofu, yuba, etc. For soy products, sprinkle two sticks of wide flour into it, and the taste of the fat sausage fish in this big pot is absolutely amazing!
Many people have a feeling that when adding side dishes to boiled fish, the side dishes are not as tasty as the fish. What kind of flavor is missing? It’s a little bland. It’s obviously salty enough, but it still feels bland.
This fatty sausage fish is different. The side dishes of fatty sausage fish are simply unique, because there are not only fish in this pot, but also rich-flavored sausage. Once the two sides are combined, with the stimulation of chili and peppercorns, can the taste of side dishes be bad?Even tastier than fish.
The prince and the fourth master have never eaten fat sausage fish, and they both think it is fresh. After all, the fish is elegant and the water is vulgar. How can this vulgarity and elegance collide?But it smelled delicious, and my stomach started to growl uncontrollably.
After finishing the fat sausage fish, Yunyu started to make sauerkraut fish again. The sauerkraut fish is even better. Fish meat, frozen tofu, and sauerkraut. The soup is not fresh, but the broth is added to the soup, which is mellow and rich. The light green soup base, the white fish, and the white soft frozen tofu, at first glance, have a sense of elegance like the moonlight in the lotus pond, which is very pleasing to the eye.
Yunxuan personally spooned the fat sausage fish and sauerkraut fish, and handed over the techniques of stinky mandarin fish and soba fish to the chefs. Everyone acted together, and soon they were all out of the oven.
Yunyu said: "Prince, fourth brother, try it, is this fish more tender than fresh?"
Dead fish is more tender than live fish, which is unheard of, at least the prince prefers to eat live fish, because dead fish is too fishy.
The prince and the fourth master were dubious, and they picked up the chopsticks and took a bite.
Because Yinzhen knew that Yunxuan was a must, this time there was no taboo, and he directly put a piece of fat sausage with chopsticks into his mouth.
It is springy, tender, rich, fragrant, and has a umami taste of fish meat. It is really indescribably delicious.
Yinzhen never thought that fish meat could be boiled together with offal, and it was extremely harmonious, it was really delicious in the world.
He was trying fatty sausage fish, when he heard the prince exclaimed: "This fish with pickled cabbage is too delicious!"
The prince took a bite of the fish with pickled cabbage, because in his opinion, sauerkraut is an auxiliary ingredient, like scallions, which the prince would never eat.
The prince ate a mouthful of the fish, his tender tongue twirled, and said in surprise: "This is obviously a dead fish, how can it be so fresh?"
Yunhu smiled and said, "Of course it's thanks to the sauerkraut. The prince can try sauerkraut, frozen tofu, and sauerkraut fish, both of which are better than fish fillets."
The prince didn't believe it. Although he didn't particularly like fish and didn't have any big addictions to fish, he still felt that the deliciousness of fish was unmatched by pickled cabbage and tofu.
The prince was dubious, so he took a piece of tofu first. After the tofu was frozen in ice, there appeared honeycomb-like holes, big and small. To be honest, it didn’t look very good-looking, but it was also because of this, the honeycomb of tofu made the tofu suck. Full of pickled fish soup, bite it down, the juice overflows, making the tofu, which is not very tasty, instantly "plump".
The prince doesn't like tofu, but the tofu doesn't taste good. Now that he ate it like this, he was very surprised, and said, "It's so fragrant! It's tender, springy, and very tasty. The taste is so fresh!"
Indeed, all the essence of pickled fish is absorbed by the frozen tofu. When Yunhu eats pickled fish, he must add frozen tofu. This is the pinnacle of pickled fish.
Not only frozen tofu, but sauerkraut is also a must. The sauerkraut boiled in fish soup is not only hot and sour, but also has a salty aroma. Coupled with the special taste of sauerkraut, the taste is very fresh.
The prince sighed again and again: "Eighth brother, you are really a god! You make such a dead fish delicious."
Yunyu said: "In this way, the prince's fish banquet will definitely be held smoothly."
"That's right," the prince said: "I want to see, who will have no face then!"
On the day of the banquet.
Uncle Yinyi entered the palace early, because it was winter, so the banquet was held in the hall instead of in the garden, the uncle came early, no one came to the banquet yet, but he saw Gao Shiqi.
As soon as Gao Shiqi saw the uncle, he immediately went up to him, and said in a low voice: "Master, there is nothing wrong with it. The official has already asked someone who can trust him to turn all the live fish in the fish feast into dead fish. All the dead fish were chopped up with knives. Even if you have three heads and six arms, you can't prepare ingredients temporarily, and the prince will definitely lose face in this banquet."
Gao Shiqi sneered, and said: "The envoy of the lower officials is right, the crown prince will definitely buy fish food that the lower officials don't like, you must know that fish food is very particular, and the emperor is used to delicacies from mountains and seas. People, if the fish is not fresh at all, it will be eaten, and then the prince can be blamed for neglecting the emperor!"
The uncle squinted his eyes and said, "Is everything safe?"
"It's safe." Gao Shiqi said: "Master, don't worry, no one knows that the matter of the dining room was done by a villain. The dining room is already busy now, so it is absolutely safe."
The uncle nodded, and said: "It's time for the prince to suffer, hmph."
While they were talking, Yunxi and Yinzhen walked in, sat on the table, and waited for the banquet to begin.
Yunhu glanced at Gao Shiqi without any trace, and sure enough, Gao Shiqi's face was eager to try, looking very excited, as if he was very interested in this kind of gossip.
Yunxu raised his eyebrows, he was here to eat pickled cabbage fish, fat sausage fish, soba fish, and stinky mandarin fish today, there are so many delicious foods, you must eat at least two bowls of rice, and have a drink A bowl of pickled fish soup.
The princes came one after another. Today's banquet was originally a family banquet, but because of Gao Shiqi's birthday, it became a family banquet and a birthday banquet.
Kangxi was in a good mood, so he came here with a smile on his face, and said, "I don't know what to eat for a banquet today?"
The emperor has come, but the crown prince has not yet arrived, it is obvious that he is late, the corner of the uncle's lips twitched slightly, he thought to himself, what reason can the crown prince not come for so long?Probably worried about those dead fish.
Kangxi asked strangely: "Where is the second child? Isn't the second child invited to a banquet today? Why don't you see anyone else? The table is also empty, is there no food?"
Indeed, the table was empty, except for plates and dishes, and a bowl of rice for each person, there was nothing else.
Uncle Yinyi deliberately said: "When I returned to Huang Ama, I didn't see the prince. Presumably... the prince is still busy with the banquet? My son heard that the prince has organized a special fish feast this time. Fish feast It’s cumbersome and probably hasn’t been done yet.”
"Oh? Fish feast?" When Kangxi heard it, he was like a human being, how could he not understand?Although Gao Shiqi was from the south, he didn't like to eat fish. Because Kangxi loved seeing Gao Shiqi, he gave him meals several times to accompany him, so he more or less knew this characteristic of Gao Shiqi.
As soon as Kangxi heard it, he knew that the prince was targeting Gao Shiqi, but he didn't point it out.
The uncle wanted to say a few more words, but he didn't say anything, when he suddenly smelled a scent.
Lao Jiu couldn't hold back his breath, and said in surprise: "What's the smell? It smells so good."
Xiao Shisan also sniffed, and responded, "It really smells so good!"
Even Xiao Shisi, who has always been a young and steady boy, couldn't help sniffing twice. The scent was overbearing and strong, and it didn't look like fish food.
In everyone's impression, fish food is light, and the least bland is the West Lake Vinegar Fish. Many people are not used to it, but even the West Lake Vinegar Fish does not have such an overbearing fragrance.
There was a hint of spicy in the fresh fragrance, "Ah!" Kangxi sneezed, but he couldn't help sniffing hard.
At this time, the prince came out, guiding the palace servants to serve the dishes, and placed all the fish dishes on the table.
It's not a light fish feast, it's red, green, and green, and it's so colorful, every dish is fresh and fresh.
Kangxi was very curious, picked up the chopsticks and tasted it, and said in surprise: "This fish is slightly spicy, but there are intestines in it? There is sauerkraut in this fish, and the tofu is very tender and delicious, how can it be so delicious? This fish It stinks very much, it tastes even more delicious than stinky tofu, and the soy sauce fish is salty and sweet, and the sauce color is thick and smoky, it's really pleasing to the eye!"
Gao Shiqi was dumbfounded when he saw it...
It is clear that the live fish has been turned into dead fish, and the dead fish has been turned into fish pieces, how can it be so delicious?
Gao Shiqi didn't believe in evil, picked up a piece of fat sausage fish with his chopsticks, the fish fillet was tender and soft, the white and tender fish meat was like the soft skin of a beautiful woman, which made people feel pity.
Gao Shiqi put the fish into his mouth, and waited for the smell, smell, etc. of the fish, how could he know...
There is no fishy smell, and there is no foul smell, and there is no trace of staleness at all, which is fresher than fresh.
Is it...
Could it be that the prince has his own way of getting new ingredients?Otherwise, how can you make such delicious food?
Yunxuan activated her mind-reading skills, and when she looked at the past, everyone had "delicious" or "cooked rice!" in big bold letters on the top of their heads. It seemed that her fish feast this time was a success.
Uncle Yinyi took a bite of the fresh bamboo shoots in the fat sausage fish. The taste was crisp and tender. The bamboo shoots did not like the taste, but the bamboo shoots soaked in the fish soup were so spicy and delicious that they couldn't be more delicious.
During a fish feast, even Gao Shiqi, who doesn't like fish, ate a few more mouthfuls, let alone Kangxi, who likes to eat fish on weekdays?Kangxi ate happily, and even rewarded the prince, praising the prince, saying: "Second brother, you have a heart."
The prince immediately stood up, smiling clearly, but pretending to be very calm, saluting decently, not surprised by honor or disgrace, and said calmly: "My son just did what he was supposed to do, just like what Huang Ama taught, You can't be careless because of small things, although inviting a banquet is not a major national event, but organizing a banquet can be regarded as a kind of experience for your son, and your son must do his best to live up to Huang Ama's teaching and hope for his son."
"Hahaha!" Kangxi laughed loudly after hearing this: "You are right, I am very pleased that you can think like this! You also have to learn more like the prince, you are worthy of being the prince of the Qing Dynasty."
When the uncle heard this, his face became gloomy. Gao Shiqi came up with a plan to bring down the prince this time, making the emperor feel that the prince is incompetent, and he can't even hold a banquet. Who knows that everything runs counter to it. Instead of hating the prince, the emperor praised him Prince, because of this banquet, the relationship with the prince has become closer.
The uncle's face was gloomy, and he looked at Gao Shiqi coldly. Gao Shiqi wiped his cold sweat, feeling very strange.
The banquet was enjoyed very happily, of course, except for the uncle and Gao Shiqi, the others ate very happily.
Especially the fourth master, the cheap fourth brother is quiet, elegant and noble in eating, especially aristocratic, but in fact, "the wind is sweeping away", almost all the large intestines in the pot are eaten by him.
The banquet was full of wine and scattered, and the food was hearty.After the banquet was over, Yunxuan was ready to leave the palace. He and Yinzhen were on the same road, ready to leave together.
Who knew it was such a coincidence that they happened to meet the uncle and Gao Shiqi.
Everyone at the banquet enjoyed themselves, but the uncle was not very happy. As soon as Kangxi left the banquet, the uncle was the first to leave.
Gao Shiqi chased after him and said, "Master! Please stop, please!"
The old man's face turned extremely ugly, he stopped, and said coldly: "Gao Hanlin, didn't you say that the fish feast is safe, and the prince will definitely lose face? What's the matter, Gao Hanlin may have misunderstood the word shame? Do you need me to explain to you, what is embarrassing?"
"Oh yes," he said, turned his head to look at Gao Shiqi, pointed to his face, and said, "Look at me, is there a word shame written on my face now?"
"Your official... this official is incompetent! This official knows his mistake!" Gao Shiqi knelt down with a groan, and kowtowed repeatedly to the uncle.
The uncle cast a condescending glance at Gao Shiqi, and said, "Mingzhu introduced you to the emperor, I hope you will not forget your roots."
Gao Shiqi thumped in his heart. He knew that the uncle was suspicious of himself. After all, Gao Shiqi used to be Suo'etu's disciple, and also belonged to Suo'etu's school. Later, because Suo'etu looked down on him, he switched to Mingzhu.
The uncle is gloomy and suspicious, and now it is reasonable to doubt whether Gao Shiqi is Suo'etu's secret work, otherwise why is the good banquet, which can clearly embarrass the prince, but now it is the prince who has good face?
Gao Shiqi quickly expressed his loyalty, saying: "My lord, there is a lesson to be learned from the world. I am loyal to my lord, and I will never forget for a moment how Master Mingzhu has promoted me. I hope you can learn from me! You can learn from me!"
The old man squinted his eyes and didn't speak, Gao Shiqi immediately said again: "Please don't worry, my highness, there is still a way for this lowly official to walk in front of the emperor on weekdays, there are so many opportunities to talk about the prince, didn't the emperor just say that, Let the next official go to serve Shumo tomorrow, and when the time comes, the next official will find an excuse to say something bad about the prince, this has been heard a lot, the emperor naturally hates the prince."
When Yunxi and Yinzhen walked halfway, they saw the uncle and Gao Shiqi standing together. Gao Shiqi kowtowed and whispered. Yunhu knew that he had messed up the fish feast without listening. Woolen cloth.
Yunyu helped the prince complete the fish feast, but task sixteen was not completed. It seems that the crisis of Suo'etu's rebellion is still not resolved.
Yunyu squinted her eyes and stared at Gao Shiqi's back. Gao Shiqi, because of Suo'etu's slander in the past, held a grudge, saying how loyal he was to the uncle or Mingzhu, it may not be true, but it was driven by interests. That's all.The uncle can benefit Gao Shiqi, and Gao Shiqi can use the uncle to attack Suo'etu, so Gao Shiqi is attached to the uncle, Mingzhu and others.
Yunxu felt that Gao Shiqi should be the key to this task. Only by sending away Gao Shiqi, the instigator on both sides, can the rift between the uncle and the prince be resolved. Going crazy"?
But now Gao Shiqi is a big celebrity in front of the emperor. The emperor is an elegant person who likes to dance and write.I also said before, what does Kangxi love to see him love to look like?But if it was later, guards would be sent to escort him out of the palace, he must be sent home to rest assured, the gate of the palace is open for Gao Shiqi, and the lock can only be locked when he leaves, it is a great honor.
In fact, to be honest, although Gao Shiqi is talented, in history, there are many people who are more talented and more prestigious than him. Why does Kangxi love to see Gao Shiqi so much?Very simple, will flatter.
Gao Shiqi is the kind of literati who is not arrogant. He has literary talents and can flatter. Kangxi asked him to give him advice on literature. It's just right, and it's beyond the reach of others.
Yunxi rubbed her chin, lost in thought.
Seeing him in a daze, Xu Zhen asked, "Eighth brother?"
"Huh?" Yunxuan turned around.
Yinzhen said: "The eighth brother is not leaving?"
Yunxu followed a few steps and said, "Let's go."
Yinzhen said: "It's really rare, but the eighth brother has something to worry about, and he has lost his mind."
Yunxu smiled and said, "To tell you the truth, my brother has accepted a mission."
Yunyu told Yinzhen the content of the mission, Yinzhen frowned, Suo'etu was going to rebel... The fourth master was an experienced person, so he naturally knew how ambitious Suo'etu was. As time went by, the emperor became more and more disliked Accustomed to the prince's arrogance, and his love for the prince is decreasing day by day, the ministers headed by Suo'etu feel that their interests have been touched, and want to force the palace and elect the prince to become the new emperor.
In fact, Yinzhen knew all this, but Suo'etu and others hadn't acted yet, they just had some signs, and they were suppressed by Kangxi.
Yunyu said: "My fourth brother and I opened the skylight to speak honestly. If the crown prince loses power now, Suo'etu will definitely not let me go. After all, my uncle and I are also related. Fourth brother is here... Fourth brother Standing behind the prince now, if the prince has any troubles, the fourth brother will definitely be affected, so why don't the fourth brother come up with an idea?"
Yinzhen thought about it a little, and it was indeed the case, and said, "Actually, it's not difficult for Gao Shiqi to fall out of favor."
Yunxu asked, "How?"
Yinzhen is someone who has experienced it, he knows Gao Shiqi's character very well, and he only said one word: "Greedy."
Gao Shiqi is a corrupt official, forming cliques for personal gain, accepting bribes, and doing such things a lot, Yinzhen continued: "You might as well go to the people from the Metropolitan Procuratorate, they should already be searching for Gao Shiqi's corruption."
In his previous life, Gao Shiqi was reported by the Metropolitan Procuratorate, but what happened to Gao Shiqi was dismissed from office. Kangxi let him go home to retire without too heavy a punishment. Love to see Gao Shiqi.
Yunxi nodded.
Yinzhen said again: "Besides the Metropolitan Procuratorate, there is actually another way, that is to find a talented minister to replace Gao Shiqi, if Gao Shiqi falls out of favor in front of the Emperor, the Metropolitan Procuratorate can also investigate him. Don't be intimidated."
When Yunhu heard this, she suddenly realized, yes, wouldn't it be enough to find a talented person to replace Gao Shiqi?
As for this person, a flash of light came to Yunhu's mind, and there was already a candidate.
——Chen Menglei!
Chen Menglei has great talent, but it's a pity
Yunyu smiled, but before he could speak, fourth master Yinzhen said with a headache: "Prince, don't you have something important to do today, why are you chatting here? It will be the day of the banquet soon, although this invitation is not a big one It is not a trivial matter, if the prince has a problem at the banquet, presumably other princes who do not deal with it will definitely grab the prince's pigtails and squeeze hard."
What Yinzhen said makes sense. This time, the banquet coincided with Gao Shiqi's birthday banquet, so the crown prince planned to be a hands-off shopkeeper, so he would not take the initiative to host the birthday banquet for Gao Shiqi. His face is too big Have some?
But in the final analysis, the crown prince still wants to take a look. Tomorrow is a banquet, and the crown prince is specially prepared to take a look, just take a look, and urge the cooks to get it.
The prince said: "Hey, what could go wrong? Don't you invite banquets like this on weekdays? I don't know how many times I have invited banquets, but I haven't seen any trouble."
Yunxu wanted to tell him, don't talk about it, after all, Yunxuan felt that the matter of inviting a banquet this time was not easy, Gao Shiqi took the initiative to "trick", maybe Gao Shiqi was doing something tricky, or maybe it was Yunxu's thinking too much.
The prince said: "All right, then I will go and have a look at it first, and I will come back later."
Just as the prince was about to step away, he heard a voice calling out loudly: "It's not good! It's not good! Prince, His Royal Highness!"
The prince frowned, and said in a cold voice: "Whoa, what's the matter? This is the Forbidden Palace! Do you think you are at home?"
The guard trembled in fright, kowtowed quickly, and said: "His Royal Highness, the slave didn't mean to offend, it's just... it's just the side of the dining room, it's not good."
"what?"
The prince said just now that there was nothing wrong, and that he had never made a mistake in hosting a banquet in his life, so he didn't know that the mistake just happened.
The prince said: "What's going on?"
The guard said: "Returning to the prince, this... suddenly someone came to the dining room and said that the ingredients in the dining room were lost, lost."
"Lost?" The prince said, "What do you mean lost?"
The guard said: "It's not that it's lost, it's just... it was changed out of nowhere."
"This time, according to the prince's instructions, I specially prepared fish food, but... the cooks today saw that all the fresh fish that had been prepared had changed. For some reason, all of them had turned into stale fish. One, one is useless! What can I do!"
All the live fish have been turned into dead fish, and as for the dead fish, all have been turned into fish parts. It is not known who did it, but it cannot be found out anyway.
The guard said: "The cooks said that tomorrow is the banquet, so they will be too busy, so they have prepared all the fish these days. There are quite a few live fish, and they are all kept in the water tank of the dining room. Look, somehow, all... all dead!"
When Prince Yinreng heard this, his expression was quite ugly, he snorted coldly, and said: "Who dares to make trouble! Hmph, I know it well, it must be the gang of the uncle's party! I will go to them to settle accounts now!"
"Prince." The fourth master Yinzhen stopped the prince and said: "There is no proof, no evidence, it's not good to go looking for it like this."
"No proof?" The prince said: "Dead fish is the best proof! Besides them, who would not want me to look good at the banquet? It must be them! And Gao Shiqi, I have already seen that something is wrong with him, It's such a big face to ask Ben Gong to hold a birthday banquet for him!"
Yunxu didn't want to take care of this nosy business at first. After all, he didn't invite the banquet himself. As for the matter of fish and meat, he knew it with his toes, and it would definitely be inseparable from partisan disputes. Avoid it if you can.
He didn't want to talk at first, but he didn't know that "Ding!", he heard the system beep, and the large characters of the system were displayed on the left side of Yunxuan.
[Mission Sixteen: Turn hostility into treasure! 】
Task requirements: ease the conflict between the uncle and the prince, and avoid Suo'etu's rebellion.
Yunxu raised her eyebrows, the system actually wants to participate in factional disputes by herself, of course, others are fighting, but she wants to ease it in the cracks?Isn't this more difficult than fighting for it?
Yunhu thought, anyway, there are so many tasks, so I don't want to take this task by myself, no matter how good the rewards are, it will save me a lot of trouble, so after weighing it, I still plan not to take it.
how do you know...
Ding!
Task reward: 2000P space points; 2 kinds of crops can be planted randomly; successfully avoid the NO.333BE ending.
BE ending?
Yunxu immediately inquired about the 333rd BE ending calmly.
[NO.333BE ending: Suo'etu rebelled and forced the palace, and the uncle's party was wiped out. Because your adoptive mother was the uncle's biological mother, you were involved in it, captured by Suo'etu, tortured to death. 】
Yunxuan: "..." So there is such an ending?
In history, Suo'etu did not rebel, but Suo'etu did have the possibility of rebellion.Suo'etu is closely related to the prince. He is a staunch princeling. If the prince is in power, the Suo'etu family will continue to enjoy great favor and become the number one in the court.
Logically speaking, Prince Yinreng is the heir apparent, and it is not just a matter of time to take the throne, but there is still an uncle party headed by Mingzhu in the imperial court.Mingzhu and Suo'etu were mortal enemies, they were stumbling each other, the uncle party and the princeling party did not deal with each other, and no one obeyed the other, so most of the court was divided into two factions, of course, there were some people watching the excitement and gathering in secret.
Yunyu came here through time travel, and has been avoiding all kinds of party disputes, and has never really stood in line, but here comes the problem, the eighth master's adoptive mother is indeed the uncle's biological mother, and there is indeed a relationship between them.
So according to Suo'etu's disposition, it makes sense to be careful, cut the weeds and root out the roots, and want to implicate Yunxi.
As time went by, Kangxi disliked the prince more and more, and the prince's status was in jeopardy. At this time, Suo'etu was also ready to move, but Kangxi was smart, and he knew what Suo'etu was thinking, so he just found a crime. Suo'etu was dealt with, before he did it.
Yunhu squinted her eyes in thought, that is to say, if she didn't accept this task, then after this banquet, the relationship between the uncle party and the princeling party would intensify, and she would be implicated at that time, so it would not be worthwhile.
The more the prince said, the more angry he became. How has he suffered such a loss in the past 20 years?Dang even lost his composure, and was about to step away when he heard a voice saying.
"Prince, don't be impatient."
It was Yunxi who spoke.
【Accept the task】
Yunxu pressed the button to accept the task, and said: "What the fourth brother said makes sense. At this time, there is no proof, and even if you find them, you can't come up with anything."
"Then let them be arrogant? I have never been so ashamed before." The prince said dissatisfied.
Yunyu said: "Prince, don't worry too much. Others use some tricks to turn live fish into dead fish and chop dead fish into pieces. They just don't want the banquet to go smoothly. If the prince can arrange the banquet smoothly , Those arrogant people will definitely be slapped in the face."
The prince said: "But, the fish is not fresh anymore, how can I treat you to a feast?"
The prince played a clever trick. He knew that although Gao Shiqi was from the south, he didn't like fish, so he asked the cook to cook a fish banquet. The live fish was the freshest. He bought it in advance, made a reservation, and waited for today.
This time the banquet is a special fish feast, so there are not too many other meats in the dining room. Even if there is meat, it is meat like stewed soup. Such meat is not good-looking, how can it be used as meat for the banquet? ?It is absolutely impossible.
So the current situation has come, if it is a fish feast, the fish is not fresh, if it is not a fish feast, and the meat is temporarily searched, and Qing Fengsi cannot find so much meat temporarily, otherwise the skylight will be opened.
The prince said coldly: "It's really vicious! If this dead fish is brought up, someone will definitely say that this palace is disrespectful to the emperor, and the banquet is so perfunctory. But if there is a meat feast at this time, the meat is only a temporary perfunctory , the banquet is bound to be ugly, and it will be said to be perfunctory, but I am not human inside and out."
Yunyu said: "Prince, maybe my younger brother can help a little bit, I wonder if I can go to the dining room?"
The most urgent task right now is to resolve the crisis of the fish feast. As long as the crown prince survives the fish feast safely, then Gao Shiqi and the uncle's party can't find any faults, and they won't fall out at the banquet.
Hearing this, the prince clapped his hands and said: "Yes! The eighth brother is good at cooking, maybe he can save Bengong! Let's go, Bengong will go to the dining room with you to have a look."
The fourth master Yinzhen also understands the truth of this. Although he didn't know that the fish banquet caused Suo'etu's rebellion, he also saw that this was a dispute between the princeling party and the uncle's party. Now he has not succeeded in gathering power, and everything is attached to Under the name of the princeling party, if the prince made a mistake at this time, it would be difficult to handle.
Fourth master said: "I will go with you too."
The three of them went to the dining room together. The cooks who were in charge of hosting the banquet were at a loss for what to do. When they saw the prince and others coming, they immediately greeted him: "Greetings to the prince, fourth master, and eighth master! Greetings to the prince and the second master !"
The prince said: "Where's the fish? I'll take a look."
The head cook immediately led them to the jar, and looked down...
Good guy, I really turned my stomach.
A whole bunch of live fish turned into dead fish, presumably it was done last night, if it wasn't because of the cooler weather, the dead fish in this tank would be smelly today.
When the prince saw it, his scalp became numb with anger, and he said, "How unreasonable!"
"Not only that, but also!" The deputy manager led them to look at the fish section again.
A lot of fish need to be marinated in advance, so cooks prepare it the night before, chill it with ice, and it will be usable today without spoiling.
how do you know...
The head cook pointed to the messy cuts of fish, and said: "This whole pickled fish has become a mess, isn't it chopped up by random knives? If it looks like this, if it is brought to a banquet, it will be fine. I'm afraid the emperor will blame him!"
It's so unlucky, chopping it up like this is not a good luck at all, who doesn't think it's unlucky when it's brought out?
The chief cook knelt down and said, "Prince, please forgive me! The villains don't know why this happened. Because of today's banquet, the villains came early on purpose. Who would have known...then who would have known to come in and have a look , it just...it became like this."
Because the fish feast was messed up temporarily, the cooks were also afraid of taking the blame. This is an innocent disaster.
The crown prince was angry, the cooks panicked, the fourth master frowned, only Yunxi, after looking around the dining room, came back and said: "It's okay, the fish feast can still go on as usual."
"Still as usual?!" The chief cook was astonished, and stammered: "Ba, Baye, these fish are not fresh anymore, and the taste of the cooked ones must not be good. If you serve them up, the emperor... the emperor will be furious when he sees Long Yan , Little ones, I'm afraid my life will be lost."
Yunhu said: "It is true that the fresher the fish, the better, but who said that only live fish can be delicious?"
"This..." Shan Fu was puzzled.
The prince said: "The eighth brother must have a way to rescue him?"
"Exactly." Yunhu nodded and said, "Please help me find some large intestines and sauerkraut."
"Big, big intestine?" The butler was confused, big intestine?Isn't the large intestine a pig's offal? What does this have to do with fish?
When it comes to fish meals, they are all elegant and elegant, with a special style. Eating fish and reciting poems is simply a paradise for literati.
For such an elegant thing, when Yunhu suddenly mentioned the "large intestine", it was extremely abrupt!
Yunhu said: "Indeed, it is the large intestine."
The cook didn't dare to say much, so he hurried to find the ingredients as soon as he folded the stack.
Yunxu pointed at the dead fish and said, "If these fish are dead, they must not be fresh after steaming, but they can be made into stinky mandarin fish."
That's right, Fourth Master thought of it all at once, stinky mandarin fish, the last time I ate stinky mandarin fish, the taste is extremely strong, because it is marinated fish, so it doesn't need to be too fresh at all, even if you don't use live fish.
The authentic method of stinky mandarin fish is obtained through pickling, so there is no need for live fish, these fish are just right.
Yunyu said again: "Some are made of stinky mandarin fish, and some are made of Su-style fried fish. There are salty and sweet, and it is not monotonous."
Shan Fu said: "It's just... what can I do with these pieces of fish?"
All the live fish turned into dead fish, and the dead fish were simply cut into a mess and chopped with knives. They were of different sizes and completely irregular, even if they were Soviet-style fried fish.
Yunxu didn't mean to be troubled, and said: "These fish sections are irregular, and they can't be fried fish in Soviet style. Let the cooks do it now and slice all the fish sections into fish fillets. The thickness is moderate, not too thin, and not too thick. thick."
"fillet?"
Although the cook was surprised, he still responded, and immediately asked the cooks to take action to slice the fish into fillets.
This time, the large intestine is ready, how can the chefs let Ba Ye clean the large intestine himself?So these large intestines are cleaned up.
"Baye, you want large intestines and sauerkraut."
Yunhu looked at the large intestine and sauerkraut and was completely satisfied.
The fourth master Yinzhen thought of the deliciousness of pickled fish and Su-style fried fish. Seeing Yunxuan had another idea at this moment, he couldn't help but twitched faintly in his stomach, and said, "I don't know that my eighth brother is going to use large intestine and sauerkraut to make it." what?"
Yunhu smiled and said: "The fish is not fresh. The best way is to make spicy dishes. Once it is spicy, it can cover up the fishy smell. There is nothing better. In addition, large intestines and sauerkraut are both very flavorful ingredients. It can cover up the stale smell of the fish, so it is natural to make a fish with sausage and a fish with pickled cabbage."
Fatty sausage fish is a Sichuan dish. Many people have eaten boiled fish, but they have never tried fat sausage fish, but fat sausage fish is Yunxuan's favorite. It tastes a thousand times more delicious than boiled fish.As for the sauerkraut fish, it is a must-have dish that everyone has eaten, especially for girls. Many girls especially like sauerkraut fish. During the lunch break, we will meet to eat pickled fish.
These two fish dishes happen to be of the rich flavor type, so there is no need for too fresh fish at all. You only need to marinate the fish to taste, and it will be naturally fresh and delicious.
In other words, if you use too fresh fish, it will be ruined.
The chefs went to fillet the fish, and Yunhu prepared the seasoning ingredients, marinated the sliced fish, and then heated it in the wok. The movements were swift and powerful.
The prince and fourth master watched together, and after a while, they smelled a fragrance.
What Yunhu cooks first is the fish with fatty intestines, fresh and tender fish fillets, cut the fatty intestines into sections, and add some ingredients to the bottom, such as fresh bamboo shoots, duck blood, bean sprouts, green bamboo shoots, various balls, tofu, yuba, etc. For soy products, sprinkle two sticks of wide flour into it, and the taste of the fat sausage fish in this big pot is absolutely amazing!
Many people have a feeling that when adding side dishes to boiled fish, the side dishes are not as tasty as the fish. What kind of flavor is missing? It’s a little bland. It’s obviously salty enough, but it still feels bland.
This fatty sausage fish is different. The side dishes of fatty sausage fish are simply unique, because there are not only fish in this pot, but also rich-flavored sausage. Once the two sides are combined, with the stimulation of chili and peppercorns, can the taste of side dishes be bad?Even tastier than fish.
The prince and the fourth master have never eaten fat sausage fish, and they both think it is fresh. After all, the fish is elegant and the water is vulgar. How can this vulgarity and elegance collide?But it smelled delicious, and my stomach started to growl uncontrollably.
After finishing the fat sausage fish, Yunyu started to make sauerkraut fish again. The sauerkraut fish is even better. Fish meat, frozen tofu, and sauerkraut. The soup is not fresh, but the broth is added to the soup, which is mellow and rich. The light green soup base, the white fish, and the white soft frozen tofu, at first glance, have a sense of elegance like the moonlight in the lotus pond, which is very pleasing to the eye.
Yunxuan personally spooned the fat sausage fish and sauerkraut fish, and handed over the techniques of stinky mandarin fish and soba fish to the chefs. Everyone acted together, and soon they were all out of the oven.
Yunyu said: "Prince, fourth brother, try it, is this fish more tender than fresh?"
Dead fish is more tender than live fish, which is unheard of, at least the prince prefers to eat live fish, because dead fish is too fishy.
The prince and the fourth master were dubious, and they picked up the chopsticks and took a bite.
Because Yinzhen knew that Yunxuan was a must, this time there was no taboo, and he directly put a piece of fat sausage with chopsticks into his mouth.
It is springy, tender, rich, fragrant, and has a umami taste of fish meat. It is really indescribably delicious.
Yinzhen never thought that fish meat could be boiled together with offal, and it was extremely harmonious, it was really delicious in the world.
He was trying fatty sausage fish, when he heard the prince exclaimed: "This fish with pickled cabbage is too delicious!"
The prince took a bite of the fish with pickled cabbage, because in his opinion, sauerkraut is an auxiliary ingredient, like scallions, which the prince would never eat.
The prince ate a mouthful of the fish, his tender tongue twirled, and said in surprise: "This is obviously a dead fish, how can it be so fresh?"
Yunhu smiled and said, "Of course it's thanks to the sauerkraut. The prince can try sauerkraut, frozen tofu, and sauerkraut fish, both of which are better than fish fillets."
The prince didn't believe it. Although he didn't particularly like fish and didn't have any big addictions to fish, he still felt that the deliciousness of fish was unmatched by pickled cabbage and tofu.
The prince was dubious, so he took a piece of tofu first. After the tofu was frozen in ice, there appeared honeycomb-like holes, big and small. To be honest, it didn’t look very good-looking, but it was also because of this, the honeycomb of tofu made the tofu suck. Full of pickled fish soup, bite it down, the juice overflows, making the tofu, which is not very tasty, instantly "plump".
The prince doesn't like tofu, but the tofu doesn't taste good. Now that he ate it like this, he was very surprised, and said, "It's so fragrant! It's tender, springy, and very tasty. The taste is so fresh!"
Indeed, all the essence of pickled fish is absorbed by the frozen tofu. When Yunhu eats pickled fish, he must add frozen tofu. This is the pinnacle of pickled fish.
Not only frozen tofu, but sauerkraut is also a must. The sauerkraut boiled in fish soup is not only hot and sour, but also has a salty aroma. Coupled with the special taste of sauerkraut, the taste is very fresh.
The prince sighed again and again: "Eighth brother, you are really a god! You make such a dead fish delicious."
Yunyu said: "In this way, the prince's fish banquet will definitely be held smoothly."
"That's right," the prince said: "I want to see, who will have no face then!"
On the day of the banquet.
Uncle Yinyi entered the palace early, because it was winter, so the banquet was held in the hall instead of in the garden, the uncle came early, no one came to the banquet yet, but he saw Gao Shiqi.
As soon as Gao Shiqi saw the uncle, he immediately went up to him, and said in a low voice: "Master, there is nothing wrong with it. The official has already asked someone who can trust him to turn all the live fish in the fish feast into dead fish. All the dead fish were chopped up with knives. Even if you have three heads and six arms, you can't prepare ingredients temporarily, and the prince will definitely lose face in this banquet."
Gao Shiqi sneered, and said: "The envoy of the lower officials is right, the crown prince will definitely buy fish food that the lower officials don't like, you must know that fish food is very particular, and the emperor is used to delicacies from mountains and seas. People, if the fish is not fresh at all, it will be eaten, and then the prince can be blamed for neglecting the emperor!"
The uncle squinted his eyes and said, "Is everything safe?"
"It's safe." Gao Shiqi said: "Master, don't worry, no one knows that the matter of the dining room was done by a villain. The dining room is already busy now, so it is absolutely safe."
The uncle nodded, and said: "It's time for the prince to suffer, hmph."
While they were talking, Yunxi and Yinzhen walked in, sat on the table, and waited for the banquet to begin.
Yunhu glanced at Gao Shiqi without any trace, and sure enough, Gao Shiqi's face was eager to try, looking very excited, as if he was very interested in this kind of gossip.
Yunxu raised his eyebrows, he was here to eat pickled cabbage fish, fat sausage fish, soba fish, and stinky mandarin fish today, there are so many delicious foods, you must eat at least two bowls of rice, and have a drink A bowl of pickled fish soup.
The princes came one after another. Today's banquet was originally a family banquet, but because of Gao Shiqi's birthday, it became a family banquet and a birthday banquet.
Kangxi was in a good mood, so he came here with a smile on his face, and said, "I don't know what to eat for a banquet today?"
The emperor has come, but the crown prince has not yet arrived, it is obvious that he is late, the corner of the uncle's lips twitched slightly, he thought to himself, what reason can the crown prince not come for so long?Probably worried about those dead fish.
Kangxi asked strangely: "Where is the second child? Isn't the second child invited to a banquet today? Why don't you see anyone else? The table is also empty, is there no food?"
Indeed, the table was empty, except for plates and dishes, and a bowl of rice for each person, there was nothing else.
Uncle Yinyi deliberately said: "When I returned to Huang Ama, I didn't see the prince. Presumably... the prince is still busy with the banquet? My son heard that the prince has organized a special fish feast this time. Fish feast It’s cumbersome and probably hasn’t been done yet.”
"Oh? Fish feast?" When Kangxi heard it, he was like a human being, how could he not understand?Although Gao Shiqi was from the south, he didn't like to eat fish. Because Kangxi loved seeing Gao Shiqi, he gave him meals several times to accompany him, so he more or less knew this characteristic of Gao Shiqi.
As soon as Kangxi heard it, he knew that the prince was targeting Gao Shiqi, but he didn't point it out.
The uncle wanted to say a few more words, but he didn't say anything, when he suddenly smelled a scent.
Lao Jiu couldn't hold back his breath, and said in surprise: "What's the smell? It smells so good."
Xiao Shisan also sniffed, and responded, "It really smells so good!"
Even Xiao Shisi, who has always been a young and steady boy, couldn't help sniffing twice. The scent was overbearing and strong, and it didn't look like fish food.
In everyone's impression, fish food is light, and the least bland is the West Lake Vinegar Fish. Many people are not used to it, but even the West Lake Vinegar Fish does not have such an overbearing fragrance.
There was a hint of spicy in the fresh fragrance, "Ah!" Kangxi sneezed, but he couldn't help sniffing hard.
At this time, the prince came out, guiding the palace servants to serve the dishes, and placed all the fish dishes on the table.
It's not a light fish feast, it's red, green, and green, and it's so colorful, every dish is fresh and fresh.
Kangxi was very curious, picked up the chopsticks and tasted it, and said in surprise: "This fish is slightly spicy, but there are intestines in it? There is sauerkraut in this fish, and the tofu is very tender and delicious, how can it be so delicious? This fish It stinks very much, it tastes even more delicious than stinky tofu, and the soy sauce fish is salty and sweet, and the sauce color is thick and smoky, it's really pleasing to the eye!"
Gao Shiqi was dumbfounded when he saw it...
It is clear that the live fish has been turned into dead fish, and the dead fish has been turned into fish pieces, how can it be so delicious?
Gao Shiqi didn't believe in evil, picked up a piece of fat sausage fish with his chopsticks, the fish fillet was tender and soft, the white and tender fish meat was like the soft skin of a beautiful woman, which made people feel pity.
Gao Shiqi put the fish into his mouth, and waited for the smell, smell, etc. of the fish, how could he know...
There is no fishy smell, and there is no foul smell, and there is no trace of staleness at all, which is fresher than fresh.
Is it...
Could it be that the prince has his own way of getting new ingredients?Otherwise, how can you make such delicious food?
Yunxuan activated her mind-reading skills, and when she looked at the past, everyone had "delicious" or "cooked rice!" in big bold letters on the top of their heads. It seemed that her fish feast this time was a success.
Uncle Yinyi took a bite of the fresh bamboo shoots in the fat sausage fish. The taste was crisp and tender. The bamboo shoots did not like the taste, but the bamboo shoots soaked in the fish soup were so spicy and delicious that they couldn't be more delicious.
During a fish feast, even Gao Shiqi, who doesn't like fish, ate a few more mouthfuls, let alone Kangxi, who likes to eat fish on weekdays?Kangxi ate happily, and even rewarded the prince, praising the prince, saying: "Second brother, you have a heart."
The prince immediately stood up, smiling clearly, but pretending to be very calm, saluting decently, not surprised by honor or disgrace, and said calmly: "My son just did what he was supposed to do, just like what Huang Ama taught, You can't be careless because of small things, although inviting a banquet is not a major national event, but organizing a banquet can be regarded as a kind of experience for your son, and your son must do his best to live up to Huang Ama's teaching and hope for his son."
"Hahaha!" Kangxi laughed loudly after hearing this: "You are right, I am very pleased that you can think like this! You also have to learn more like the prince, you are worthy of being the prince of the Qing Dynasty."
When the uncle heard this, his face became gloomy. Gao Shiqi came up with a plan to bring down the prince this time, making the emperor feel that the prince is incompetent, and he can't even hold a banquet. Who knows that everything runs counter to it. Instead of hating the prince, the emperor praised him Prince, because of this banquet, the relationship with the prince has become closer.
The uncle's face was gloomy, and he looked at Gao Shiqi coldly. Gao Shiqi wiped his cold sweat, feeling very strange.
The banquet was enjoyed very happily, of course, except for the uncle and Gao Shiqi, the others ate very happily.
Especially the fourth master, the cheap fourth brother is quiet, elegant and noble in eating, especially aristocratic, but in fact, "the wind is sweeping away", almost all the large intestines in the pot are eaten by him.
The banquet was full of wine and scattered, and the food was hearty.After the banquet was over, Yunxuan was ready to leave the palace. He and Yinzhen were on the same road, ready to leave together.
Who knew it was such a coincidence that they happened to meet the uncle and Gao Shiqi.
Everyone at the banquet enjoyed themselves, but the uncle was not very happy. As soon as Kangxi left the banquet, the uncle was the first to leave.
Gao Shiqi chased after him and said, "Master! Please stop, please!"
The old man's face turned extremely ugly, he stopped, and said coldly: "Gao Hanlin, didn't you say that the fish feast is safe, and the prince will definitely lose face? What's the matter, Gao Hanlin may have misunderstood the word shame? Do you need me to explain to you, what is embarrassing?"
"Oh yes," he said, turned his head to look at Gao Shiqi, pointed to his face, and said, "Look at me, is there a word shame written on my face now?"
"Your official... this official is incompetent! This official knows his mistake!" Gao Shiqi knelt down with a groan, and kowtowed repeatedly to the uncle.
The uncle cast a condescending glance at Gao Shiqi, and said, "Mingzhu introduced you to the emperor, I hope you will not forget your roots."
Gao Shiqi thumped in his heart. He knew that the uncle was suspicious of himself. After all, Gao Shiqi used to be Suo'etu's disciple, and also belonged to Suo'etu's school. Later, because Suo'etu looked down on him, he switched to Mingzhu.
The uncle is gloomy and suspicious, and now it is reasonable to doubt whether Gao Shiqi is Suo'etu's secret work, otherwise why is the good banquet, which can clearly embarrass the prince, but now it is the prince who has good face?
Gao Shiqi quickly expressed his loyalty, saying: "My lord, there is a lesson to be learned from the world. I am loyal to my lord, and I will never forget for a moment how Master Mingzhu has promoted me. I hope you can learn from me! You can learn from me!"
The old man squinted his eyes and didn't speak, Gao Shiqi immediately said again: "Please don't worry, my highness, there is still a way for this lowly official to walk in front of the emperor on weekdays, there are so many opportunities to talk about the prince, didn't the emperor just say that, Let the next official go to serve Shumo tomorrow, and when the time comes, the next official will find an excuse to say something bad about the prince, this has been heard a lot, the emperor naturally hates the prince."
When Yunxi and Yinzhen walked halfway, they saw the uncle and Gao Shiqi standing together. Gao Shiqi kowtowed and whispered. Yunhu knew that he had messed up the fish feast without listening. Woolen cloth.
Yunyu helped the prince complete the fish feast, but task sixteen was not completed. It seems that the crisis of Suo'etu's rebellion is still not resolved.
Yunyu squinted her eyes and stared at Gao Shiqi's back. Gao Shiqi, because of Suo'etu's slander in the past, held a grudge, saying how loyal he was to the uncle or Mingzhu, it may not be true, but it was driven by interests. That's all.The uncle can benefit Gao Shiqi, and Gao Shiqi can use the uncle to attack Suo'etu, so Gao Shiqi is attached to the uncle, Mingzhu and others.
Yunxu felt that Gao Shiqi should be the key to this task. Only by sending away Gao Shiqi, the instigator on both sides, can the rift between the uncle and the prince be resolved. Going crazy"?
But now Gao Shiqi is a big celebrity in front of the emperor. The emperor is an elegant person who likes to dance and write.I also said before, what does Kangxi love to see him love to look like?But if it was later, guards would be sent to escort him out of the palace, he must be sent home to rest assured, the gate of the palace is open for Gao Shiqi, and the lock can only be locked when he leaves, it is a great honor.
In fact, to be honest, although Gao Shiqi is talented, in history, there are many people who are more talented and more prestigious than him. Why does Kangxi love to see Gao Shiqi so much?Very simple, will flatter.
Gao Shiqi is the kind of literati who is not arrogant. He has literary talents and can flatter. Kangxi asked him to give him advice on literature. It's just right, and it's beyond the reach of others.
Yunxi rubbed her chin, lost in thought.
Seeing him in a daze, Xu Zhen asked, "Eighth brother?"
"Huh?" Yunxuan turned around.
Yinzhen said: "The eighth brother is not leaving?"
Yunxu followed a few steps and said, "Let's go."
Yinzhen said: "It's really rare, but the eighth brother has something to worry about, and he has lost his mind."
Yunxu smiled and said, "To tell you the truth, my brother has accepted a mission."
Yunyu told Yinzhen the content of the mission, Yinzhen frowned, Suo'etu was going to rebel... The fourth master was an experienced person, so he naturally knew how ambitious Suo'etu was. As time went by, the emperor became more and more disliked Accustomed to the prince's arrogance, and his love for the prince is decreasing day by day, the ministers headed by Suo'etu feel that their interests have been touched, and want to force the palace and elect the prince to become the new emperor.
In fact, Yinzhen knew all this, but Suo'etu and others hadn't acted yet, they just had some signs, and they were suppressed by Kangxi.
Yunyu said: "My fourth brother and I opened the skylight to speak honestly. If the crown prince loses power now, Suo'etu will definitely not let me go. After all, my uncle and I are also related. Fourth brother is here... Fourth brother Standing behind the prince now, if the prince has any troubles, the fourth brother will definitely be affected, so why don't the fourth brother come up with an idea?"
Yinzhen thought about it a little, and it was indeed the case, and said, "Actually, it's not difficult for Gao Shiqi to fall out of favor."
Yunxu asked, "How?"
Yinzhen is someone who has experienced it, he knows Gao Shiqi's character very well, and he only said one word: "Greedy."
Gao Shiqi is a corrupt official, forming cliques for personal gain, accepting bribes, and doing such things a lot, Yinzhen continued: "You might as well go to the people from the Metropolitan Procuratorate, they should already be searching for Gao Shiqi's corruption."
In his previous life, Gao Shiqi was reported by the Metropolitan Procuratorate, but what happened to Gao Shiqi was dismissed from office. Kangxi let him go home to retire without too heavy a punishment. Love to see Gao Shiqi.
Yunxi nodded.
Yinzhen said again: "Besides the Metropolitan Procuratorate, there is actually another way, that is to find a talented minister to replace Gao Shiqi, if Gao Shiqi falls out of favor in front of the Emperor, the Metropolitan Procuratorate can also investigate him. Don't be intimidated."
When Yunhu heard this, she suddenly realized, yes, wouldn't it be enough to find a talented person to replace Gao Shiqi?
As for this person, a flash of light came to Yunhu's mind, and there was already a candidate.
