Husband

"Are you humble? Since the emperor has appointed you to be a guard, you must have something extraordinary!" Pei Zhan said as he straightened his waist again. There was no doubt that it was the confidence given to him by the hamburgers and small biscuits.

The reason why I chose hamburgers to take the lead is to attract attention and get to this point!

If you want to socialize naturally and easily in the workplace, you have to find ways to make old birds pay attention to the rookie and take the initiative to extend your friendly hands!

And his words attracted the echo of others: "Yes, Zhao Su, outsiders say you are not good, and I can't see it all!"

The person who was talking was immediately stabbed by the person next to him. Everyone changed the subject and the room immediately became lively.

But Zhao Su still noticed sharply that Liang Ying and the people around her were pulling their faces out in the lively sound.

It doesn’t matter, there are always one or two outstanding people in which group. Zhao Su has achieved the goal of integrating into the workplace circle and does not force everyone to be recognized at once.

It is also time for lunch here in Ganqing Palace.

When the emperor saw several groups of ministers, he saw Sixi coming for lunch, sat down and ate for a few bites, and looked at the same color of steamed meat soup, health soup, and dishes that remained unexceptionally light after being boiled and steamed, and slowly lowered the chopsticks.

"Emperor," Sixi bowed, "Today's lunch is all carefully prepared by the chef. In order to maintain the true nature of each food, the chef specially boiled a thick soup and watered it. For example, this dish of the five treasure meatballs was praised by the late emperor back then, and the chef didn't make it often, so try it!"

The emperor simply put down his teeth. "Is there any other way to cook these meatballs besides boiling?"

Sixi was stunned: "Your Majesty, this meatball is either steamed, boiled, or fried... What do you want to eat?"

The emperor thought again: "Has Zhao Su taken office today?"

"It's time to report to the Imperial Guards before noon."

"Do you ask her to try making meatballs? I don't want to steam it, cook it, and don't fry it."

Four joys: “…”

The emperor stroked the fan bone: "If you can't do it, let her run ten laps outside the Meridian Gate every day to strengthen her body and strive to be a qualified imperial guard."

...

"That's what he said?"

Zhao Su, who was patrolling the guards, was intercepted by Sixi on the way. After hearing his purpose, she almost got so angry that she smoked from her nostrils.

Is she here to be a guard or a mate?

Isn’t it just that he has a little secret from his mother, as for exploiting her like this?

Can this belly be enlarged and can it be like an emperor who ruled the world?

I got the meatballs, and the balls are almost the same as the outside and the inside.

"Maid Zhao, you'd better go. The square outside the Meridian Gate is quite big. If you really run ten laps a day, you'd be really suffering."

Sixi reminded her of the fact that she had sued Yu Qingping, who had tripped him yesterday.

"I know." Zhao Su had no choice. Although he was reluctant, cooking was indeed much easier than running on the playground.

When I arrived at the imperial kitchen, maybe the emperor gave me more meals, or just to show the emperor's status, the kitchen was twice as big as the kitchen of Cining Palace.

The person in the kitchen must have received a notice from Sixi long ago that someone had been waiting under the door and then led her to the small kitchen on the side.

Zhao Su looked at the imperial kitchen with everything, and couldn't help but sigh. The emperor wanted to eat meatballs, but how could the meatballs be made besides frying and steaming? Could it be used to bake them too?

Seeing a basket of fresh squid in the corner, she suddenly slapped her hands and found it!

"I need flour, yam, oil and salt, dried kelp, two tomatoes, aged vinegar, very clean vegetable oil, cane sugar and eggs, and one dried squid!"

She gave the required items to the palace servants around her. She immediately grabbed a fresh squid and washed it, cut it into fine diced diced as big as a fingernail, and then cut some crumbs of cabbage for later use.

Then someone brings out the right kitchen utensils.

It took her two or three quarters of an hour to finally find a cast iron container for pastries by dim sum chefs. Each nest on it is about the size of an egg. Although it is not as ideal as expected, it can barely be used.

Shi En's case is doing its best, but Han Jun, who is responsible for investigating Tian Da, got some other news, saying that Shi En's wife, who was originally taking care of her parents in her ancestral home, has recently rushed to Beijing, probably because she wanted to ask to see the Queen Mother.

The emperor was silent for a while after hearing this.

Mrs. Shi was once the female official of the Empress Dowager. Under the current circumstances, the court can maintain relatively harmony with the Empress Dowager Lu. If Mrs. Shi went to see the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager would have her reason to intervene directly.

The Queen Mother’s purpose is to protect Shi En, regardless of whether he committed a crime or not. If Shi En did not commit a crime, the court could of course give him justice, which would also ensure that their mother-son relationship is not affected.

But if Shi En really committed a crime, the court would never tolerate him. If the Empress Dowager forced himself to protect him, even if he did not object, his series of decisions he wanted to make afterwards would inevitably encounter obstacles.

"Mrs. Shi is far away from the Shi family's ancestral home, Bozhou, and is more than a thousand miles away. Why did she arrive in the capital so soon?"

"Before I came, I went to check the whereabouts of several female guards in Cining Palace, and found that two of them have not returned since leaving the palace last month."

Needless to say, the Empress Dowager started to deploy last month, sent the guards to Lingnan and arranged for Mrs. Shi to come here.

"Go and ask the Grand Governor how the Imperial Medicine Department is doing? Also, does Fang Qingxue have any flaws?"

Han Jun led the order to leave the palace gate, and the emperor sat down and asked, "Where is the meatball?"

...

"It's ready to go out of the pot! I need a large round plate with a glass cover."

Zhao Su turned her head to greet her while stirring up the meatballs in the container. When the plate came, she arranged the six meatballs neatly into triangles, poured them with salad sauce made with aged egg vinegar and cooking oil, then poured them with a few tomato sauce, and finally shaved the dried and crispy squid into flowers, and then sprinkled with kelp.

The burnt meatballs were paired with white salad sauce and red tomato sauce, dark green kelp and golden squid flowers. Seeing that something was missing, I thought that the emperor was showing off her all day long, so I placed three little Pikachus that I had just carved with apples on the other side of the plate, and applied some red bean paste on both sides of their faces, and then accompanied by some green cauliflower. I hope he could learn from Pikachu, less majestic and more cute!

As soon as the plate was put on the stove, the imperial chefs turned their heads and looked over frequently.

Traditional Chinese dishes are quite particular. Zhao Su has never felt that the taste of imperial dishes is not as good as modern delicacies, but there are many advantages in ancient and modern times. Imperial dishes and home-cooked dishes also focus differently. Her plate of meatballs is roasted and served in this way, which is inevitably eye-catching.
