It really smells too good.

The three cats carried the tray into the hall, and the chicken and the dog who had been guarding the door couldn't help but look up.

The rib meat on the upper abdomen of the lamb is a thin layer of fat sandwiched with a layer of red meat. After cooking, it is like mutton fat jade with rouge jade sandwiched between it. It is clear and translucent, but also shiny, making people salivate.

Because it is mixed with tangerine peel and ginger juice, the color of the noodles is slightly yellow, and the roots are clearly immersed in the thick white soup. When I pick it up with chopsticks, I dip a little green onion and coriander into it, and watch the thick heat coming from the noodles.

When it spreads out, people feel that this shiny noodle must be particularly smooth and chewy when put into the mouth.

Yi Ji picked out the noodles with silver chopsticks, put them there for a moment, and was about to put them into his mouth when a dog's head suddenly popped out from the side: "Boss Chicken, let me do the job of testing the dishes for the Emperor."

After giving Ergou a sideways glance, Yiji used a silver spoon to add some soup to the small porcelain bowl, then picked up the porcelain bowl and poisoned the soup and noodles.

Two dogs, three cats and four rats were all staring at him, not really afraid that there was something poisonous about them.

There are three people with six eyes, and the same words are written in their eyes: "What does it smell like?"

Yiji ignored them and presented the noodles to Emperor Zhaode: "Your Majesty, this noodles is delicious, but it's still hot."

After so many days, Shen Shiqing was finally able to eat something to her liking. Shen Shiqing was still a little anxious. After eating a piece of chopstick noodles, she glanced at the three cats who were watching eagerly.

This eunuch has some talent in cooking. The noodles are light and the soup is thick. He adjusts the salt just right.

Seeing that the emperor was in good spirits, the three cats and two cats had their paws together, holding their heads high, really looking like cats stretching their necks.

Seeing his appearance, Shen Shiqing picked up two more pieces of meat from the bowl and ate it, then took a sip of the soup. The fattened mutton slid across her tongue. It was oily but not greasy, and the shredded meat was tender and not sticky. Lamb was used in the soup.

The strong aroma of bones and spices goes straight to the top of your head as the soup rolls into your throat.

For a moment, people can't help but feel wandering and forgetful.

"Your Majesty, this servant has racked his brains to make this dish according to the recipe you gave him. I am stupid and am afraid that if I make a mistake, I will make the meal uncomfortable..."

"It's great to have fun, but it's also cruel.*" Putting down the bowl and chopsticks, Shen Shiqing sighed.

Yiji raised his head slightly and touched the three cats with his foot: "Your Majesty praises you."

The three cats quickly knelt down and kowtowed to the emperor.

"Come on, you've done a good job. I'll give you the compliment." Shen Shiqing wiped his mouth, rinsed his mouth with tea, and then said: "I've memorized this recipe. Not only can it satisfy my craving, but it's also great for mutton and ginger juice and tangerine peel noodles."

They all have warming and tonic effects, so they are also good as food supplements. If you feed them to the elderly, add egg white to the noodles, which can also nourish the stomach."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Sanmao's face was cheerful, and his eyes were narrowed together: "I have really learned a lot today. There is such a fragrant mutton noodle soup in the world. The rice I have cooked in the past few years is not as good as what the emperor said casually,

How about your Majesty giving this noodle a name? In the future, I will make this Royal-given mutton soup noodle. That would be really..."

Shen Shiqing stood up and threw the silk handkerchief she was wiping her hands aside: "This is the prescription I read from the books "Yunxian Miscellaneous Notes", "Taiping Shenghui Prescriptions", and "Shengji Zonglu".

It's just a matter of wisdom from the predecessors, and it's not worthy of your flattery. You should make more than one, call the guards on duty outside, and use them all when you go down."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward!" Several eunuchs kowtowed together. One chicken and two dogs retreated, leaving only three cats kneeling on the spot.

"Slave, I thank you for the reward, but I don't dare to deceive you. I can't eat any more. When the meat is stewed, I'm trying to taste it." As the three cats spoke, they puffed up their stomachs and made a show of themselves. I felt like burping.

Judging from his behavior, you can tell that his "taste test" must have taken more than one or two bites. He did not really do this to apologize, but to continue to flatter the emperor and praise the emperor's recipe in various ways. .

Shen Shiqing knew it clearly in her heart, but she smiled on her face and lightly kicked his butt.

The three cats covered their round buttocks and smiled as if they had picked up a big ingot: "Your Majesty, you have kicked my slave's butt again! Your cat's butt is so thin because it misses your Majesty's dragon boots!"

This was really nonsense, and Shen Shiqing stopped joking with him and turned to look out the window.

The weather is gloomy and it's going to rain.

There is an autumn rain and a cool breeze. After this rain, the Double Ninth Festival is just around the corner.

All in all, she has been the emperor for some time.

"When the chicken has finished eating the noodles, you ask him to go to the cabinet to deliver the order, and he will listen to the government in the Heavenly Palace tomorrow morning."

"Yes! Your Majesty. Since you are going to court tomorrow, shouldn't you drive back to the palace today?"

"Um."

The emperor seemed a little impatient.

Only she knows how determined she is.

Facing the emperor's personal eunuch.

Summon the courtiers.

Take a bath as a man.

Use Jinyiwei and Dongchang.

Decide the life and death of others.

Summon the cabinet ministers.

Kick three cats' ass.

Go to court and face all the civil and military officials.

…

Step by step, she came over as a king.

Turning around, Shen Shiqing looked at the memorials piled on the table and the Map of Dayong covering an entire wall.

Behind her are the dark clouds accumulated by silence and the increasingly cold wind.

She lowered her head and glanced at her sleeves. The golden dragon embroidered on it looked straight at her, as if staring at her, the power-stealer hidden under the skin of the emperor.

Shen Shiqing just smiled. The smile was very light, but it made her eyebrows fly.

No matter what's left in her path, she's ready to keep going.

————

The bell on the Wufeng Tower rang, and the doors on the left and right opened one after another.

Stepping on the dim light of the morning light that has not dissipated, the court officials of the Yong Dynasty arrived in front of the Jinshui Bridge and lined up in order. After a few whips were sounded, they crossed the Jinshui Bridge and walked all the way to the two imperial roads under Danqi of Fengtianmen. side.

There is a throne high up in the corridor above Danqi. This place is also called the "Golden Terrace", and every morning is often called the "Golden Terrace to watch politics."

The courtiers stood with their hands solemnly facing the golden platform, with the sword-wielding captain standing beside them. The cold wind blew from the back of their necks, driving away the fatigue and sleepiness on their bodies.

It rained a little last night, and there were still some clouds in the sky. The sun was about to appear in the eastern sky, turning the clouds into a red glow.

Yang Zhai, the Minister of the Ministry of War, was discussing with Wan Sencai, the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, about the allocation of winter grain for the army. Li Congyuan, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, looked at the officials entering the capital who were going to report to His Majesty today with a sullen face.

Suddenly, a burst of red light came into view. Li Congyuan looked up and saw that everything in the world was covered with a layer of red light.

"Today seems different from the past."

He stroked his long beard, and something seemed to move in his heart.

"Woo——" The sheng pipe sounded, the bells and drums rang together, and the warriors holding umbrellas and fans on the royal road walked slowly, and then they greeted the servants and others. After the complicated ceremony, the warriors wearing golden crowns and dragon robes came Emperor Zhaode was carried from the imperial gate along the royal road to the golden platform in a large sedan chair, covered with red light from heaven and earth.

His Majesty took his seat.

The sound of the whip sounded again.

Honglu Temple, who was in charge of the ceremony, sang in a drawl: "Enter the class!"

The courtiers then stepped onto the royal road together and bowed three times to the emperor who was sitting high on the throne.

Sitting on the golden platform of Fengtianmen, watching countless courtiers kowtow to her, Shen Shiqing sighed silently.

People sitting here will really have the illusion that "I am the only one in heaven and earth".

——

At first, Zhao Surui thought that his stomachache was just an illusion, but the occasional pain always bothered him. He touched his stomach and guessed that it was probably because he ate too many persimmons yesterday, but he didn't want to go to the toilet.

It was just a pain, but sitting on the chair, he felt that his back was a little sore and weak, as if someone had taken away a muscle and bone.

"Shen Sanbai's body is really useless, but after riding a horse for such a short time, I still feel uncomfortable today."

After scolding Shen Shiqing in his heart as usual, Zhao Surui stretched and stood up. Yesterday, he had someone knock the stone in the corner into pieces. Each piece weighed more than twenty kilograms. Tao Kan could move it by hand. Brick exercises, and he does the same with holding rocks.

After practicing for a few days and gaining some strength, he planned to pick up archery. Shen Sanwasi was... a loser who could make mutton soup noodles. He couldn't let himself live in such a useless shell.

Thinking of this, he stretched out his arms and turned his neck, but his expression froze again.

He...could there be some serious illness in Shen Sanchi's body?

Another hot and wet feeling came from underneath him, and Zhao Surui panicked.

This, this, this Shen Sanfei's body can't be so bad, right? He just rode a horse yesterday and lost this body?

Even though he couldn't see it, he still looked back behind him, but suddenly he saw a dark mass on the cushion of the literary chair.

Bleeding!

Really bleeding!

"One... Tunan! Hurry and ride to find the doctor! I... I, my body..."

Zhao Surui was so shocked that he couldn't speak. He raised his hand in the air and didn't know whether he should stop the bleeding on his buttocks.
