imprinted you in my heart

When dining outdoors such as water pavilions and pavilions, Shi Min generally likes to set up desks or long tables, while for family banquets, he prefers round tables, so knowing her favorite Lu Guanchu, generally she doesn't need to give special instructions, and she will just decide according to the situation. Certainly?.

Guanqing Water Pavilion is open on all sides, built on the water on the west bank of Yuqing Pool, covering an area of ​​about 120 square meters. Fangyuan, to the south, you can see Xingchen Pavilion, Qinghui Palace and Qilin Garden from a distance.

Qilin Garden is not a garden made up of trees as it literally means, but a garden made up of strangely shaped stones. The word Lin was chosen because the emperor's surname was tabooed when the name was originally named.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the other surnames of Shi were changed to the surname of Shi or Yan because of the taboo. Therefore, those who have the surname of Shi are either descendants of the royal family or noble ancestors who were given surnames.But there is no special taboo in spoken language, because there are too many words related to stone, but written language must be replaced by rock or less.

Guanqing Water Pavilion is built on the water and connected with the bank by a trestle bridge. A row of willow trees are planted on the bank. It is said that the oldest and largest tree was planted by Emperor Taizong. When the autumn wind blows, you can not only smell the moisture of the water , You can also feel the refreshingness of willow green.

Hand in hand? Move from the far right to the left, and when they approached the table, Shi Min suddenly withdrew his hand, walked quickly in front of Bu Qianxue, pulled down the chair before she sat down, Bu Qianxue smiled and said thank you just now sit down.

A complete set of silver tableware has already been set up at the positions of the two of them. Bowls, chopsticks, plates, plates, knives, forks, tongs, handkerchiefs, etc. are all available, and the two ends of the long table covered with lavender tablecloths are also set up separately. Four fresh fruits, four dried fruits, four Kan fruits and four candied fruits.

Seeing that Bu Qianxue was seated, Shi Min just walked to his seat and sat down. The two sat facing each other. The sun was getting closer and closer to sunset. The swans, mandarin ducks, wild ducks, etc. that were playing in Yuqing Pool were heading to Penglai. island tour.

The entire Penglai Island has only one building, Wangxian Pavilion, and only protection measures such as blocking will be taken within 15 meters around Wangxian Pavilion, so the place 15 meters away is their habitat all the way to the water’s edge. The wild poultry and fish in the wild are overpopulated, and the palace organizes hunting and fishing every year.

Shi Min and Bu Qianxue sat down, and the palace servants who were holding a water basin, a soap box and a handkerchief hurried forward as usual, and the two began to clean their hands with the water basin. After wiping, The serving palace attendant saluted and retreated.

Shi Min was about to speak when he saw the black Chinese medicine being brought up, he frowned instantly, even though he was not afraid of suffering, he couldn't stand it even after drinking for a month, but as soon as he thought that today was the last time he took the medicine God, there is hope again,

Staring at the traditional Chinese medicine brought up by Lu Guanchu for a while, I wanted to procrastinate for a while, but when I looked up, I saw Bu Qianxue looking at her from the opposite side. Clean, open your eyes after drinking, and see Ban Yue walking over with a plate of candied fruit.

Shi Min felt uncomfortable and immediately returned the medicine bowl to Lu Guanchu, waving her hands while drinking water, as if the medicine bowl was as dangerous as a bomb, she slowed down, and the candied fruit was also presented in front of her, looking opposite, Bu Qianxue nodded slightly .

Finally, in the last half month, I took a clean plate back, and put two pieces of pear meat, two pieces of juicy peaches, two grapes and two longan in it. In front of Shi Min.

Seeing that Shi Min just accepted the candied fruit but didn't eat it right away, Bu Qianxue went back to her four fresh fruits, instantly understood what the other party meant, picked up a fork and started eating the pear meat, and there was a movement on the opposite side after two bites.

Because she likes to eat meat and dislikes fresh fruits and vegetables, whenever the two of them eat together, Shi Min will try different ways to let her eat fresh fruits and vegetables many times.

Sometimes, Bu Qianxue really felt that she knew Shi Min very well, such as what he liked to eat, what to wear, what hobbies he had, what books he liked to read, and his ideals for governing the country. She basically knew everything.

But sometimes she feels that she doesn't know each other that well, like the etiquette of pulling a chair. She has never heard of such etiquette since she was a child and read books from ancient times to the present, but Shi Min is serious Tell her that this is a kind of etiquette, and it is a unique etiquette between partners, she just needs to say thank you.

She wanted to refute at first, but seeing Shi Min's serious look didn't seem like a lie, she didn't say anything, treating it as a little secret between the two of them, she readily accepted it, and now as long as Shi Min pulls her a chair, Saying thank you becomes an instinctive response.

And Luguan Elementary? People are also unbelievable at the beginning, and now they are not surprised. If there is a family, Xiu Mu can show a wave to his partner when he returns home. Maybe it will become a unique etiquette between partners in the future. .

There are also tableware for dining. Since she first entered the palace until now, the tableware used for eating is basically made of five kinds of materials, silver, jade, porcelain, glazed and bamboo. Occasionally, the inlays are also on the ends of the chopsticks. , Most of them are hollowed out, like the legendary gold bowls and chopsticks, ivory bowls and chopsticks, gold inlaid jade bowls and chopsticks, etc., I have never seen it before.

Although she had some doubts in her heart at the time, it was not suitable to ask at that time, and she did not dare to ask. She did not know until she had lived in the palace for a long enough time in the past two years and became familiar with everything in the palace. There are all the bowls and chopsticks, but because of the financial difficulties in the past few years, most of the gold ones were given to the Ministry of Households by Shi Min to melt them into gold ingots, while the rest were put into the warehouse.

It is said that Shi Min spent a lot of effort in order to persuade the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager to give up using these bowls and chopsticks, but fortunately the result was as Shi Min wanted.

According to what she has learned, all the emperors, royal families, and dignitaries in the past did not dislike these extravagant tableware. Fortunately, bamboo tableware, which has never been used even cloth dishes, has become one of the commonly used tableware. The frequency of eating is also relatively small, but it has become one of the daily tableware anyway.

Moreover, not only did Shi Min change from the normal state in previous dynasties in this respect, but he was also quite frugal in terms of expenses, clothing, and meals. I heard that most of the previous emperors never wore washed clothes because they were new clothes. There are too many. Basically, people are making new clothes for the emperor all the time. There are N sets of the most noble crown clothes, and they can't be worn several times a year.

What about Shi Min?Not only do you wear washed clothes, but you also set rules for yourself? Only twelve sets of new clothes are made a year, and there are only two sets of crown clothes, and there are no new plans. Although there are slightly more court clothes, there is only one wedding dress The suit is made together with her wedding clothes, and the most common ones she wears are ordinary clothes and casual clothes.

Regular clothes are a little more casual than court clothes, and the style is the same as court clothes, but the color of the fabric is not purple, it can be white, yellow or brown, etc. The accessories are also more casual, but they are more formal than casual clothes, so neither she nor Shi Yan can wear them. I prefer to wear ordinary clothes to meet ministers, which is more formal and comfortable.

Although Shi Min did not stipulate how many sets of new clothes she and the Queen Mother could make in a year, but under the influence of Shi Min, she and the Queen Mother were also embarrassed to make more new clothes, so it was also based on the standard of twelve sets of new clothes per person per year. Come, as for what style to wear, court clothes, regular clothes or casual clothes, it is up to you to decide.

If it was just like this, Bu Qianxue would only think that Shi Min was a frugal emperor, but in fact Shi Min was far more frugal than she thought, because after Shi Min was nine years old, all clothes that he hadn't worn It was well preserved by her, and she also said that she would leave it for their future children to wear.

Bu Qianxue looked at the clothes carefully, and found that the fabrics were all new, and some of them were made of thread, etc. It was still very luxurious, but it was not Shi Min’s favorite style at first glance. Because she couldn't wear it before she had time to wear it, and she couldn't bear to destroy it so she kept it.

Since then, Bu Qianxue's understanding of Shi Min has risen to another level. Shi Min is definitely the only one in history who wants to leave the clothes he didn't wear to his grandson in the future.

According to historical records, even emperors like the founder of the country, such as the founder of the country, have never done this, even if they were really difficult and poor in the period of starting a business at that time!

Fortunately, Shi Min's love for power is no different from that of previous emperors, otherwise she would really suspect that the person she likes may not be the current emperor, but an idle rich man, or a Taoist priest, because it is frugal And without desire or desire.

In the past month, although it is true that she is in power and handling political affairs, Shi Min is the real decision maker behind the scenes, and Shi Min is the one who decides on major matters. She is at most a suggester and an implementer. It was a bit tiring, but I also learned a lot.

In addition, although Shi Min is frugal, he is quite picky about what he eats. If an imperial chef never innovates new dishes, he will be downgraded or pack up and leave.Even for fruits, there are strict cleaning and processing requirements, and they must not be sloppy at all.

Just like the pears, grapes and peaches she eats are soaked in salt water, washed, peeled and pitted, and cut into pieces evenly. Bring it up again.

In the past, pears were eaten steamed, boiled or burned, but here in Shimin, they are peeled, cored, cut into pieces and eaten raw. There are countless uncharacteristic examples, such as the study room of Chang'an Palace, such as toilet paper Waiting? Waiting?, she couldn't help but wonder what was in Shi Min's mind, and why she had so many different ideas.

Then she thought about it but couldn't come up with a result, and then she asked Shi Min seriously, but this guy opened his two big eyes and thought harder than her, and finally the question was left alone.

In addition, Shi Min occasionally said some words that she didn't understand, and also wrote some things that no one knew. For example, some paintings in the study room painted many symbols that she didn't understand at all. The punctuation marks and capital numbers, each, were completely absent before.

At the beginning, she just got to know it out of curiosity, so she didn't go deep into it, and she didn't think too much about it. It wasn't until later that she got in touch with Shi Nianding after getting married, that she really tried to get to know it deeply. The more she talked, the more she found that the other party was far more extensive than she knew.

I also understand the fundamental purpose of the other party's creation of these - not only to maintain their own dominance, but also to make people's lives better and to facilitate everyone's daily life. ?
