Chapter 239

In the evening, father-in-law an left drunk.

Soon after, Li Qinqing, the emperor's little eunuch, will invite him to attend the new year's Eve dinner.

Li Yuanqing quickly thanks the small eunuch with a silver note. The eunuch is very happy and gives Li Yuanqing a small box, which makes him leave excitedly.

Li Yuanqing closed the door and opened the box. He couldn't help but show an indescribable smile.

There was nothing in the box, but at the bottom, there was a long green silk.

Li Yuanqing put the green silk to his mouth and sniffed it gently. His smile on his face was even worse.

I can't go back tonight.

Fortunately, Li Yuanqing has a good time here. It is not difficult for him to pass the news outside the palace. Through the old maid in law, she tells Huang Guoshan and Kong Youde that they should go to the fog rain pavilion to prepare for the new year's Eve, and then go to meet him outside the palace gate on New Year's Eve.

The Emperor invited to the family dinner, or the family dinner on New Year's Eve, which is a big face.

Li Yuanqing wanted to prepare some gifts for emperor Tianqi, but at this time, he was under the control of the palace, and could not.

The next morning, Li Chaoqin's intimate eunuch came back again and told Li Yuanqing what to pay attention to at the dinner party, and asked him to prepare for it. The emperor was also thinking about his barbecue.

Li Yuanqing couldn't help but smile and quickly thanks him.

Time goes by quietly, and the new year's eve of Tianqi will soon come.

It's a pity that the heavenly palace is not beautiful, and there is a heavy snowfall. These days, the roads that eunuchs and palace ladies have to clean up are covered with heavy snow.

In the evening, Li Yuanqing was led to a palace by the eunuch.

This is not the emperor's bedroom, but another huge palace, very spacious, the yard is also huge.

After the red wall, you can see many towering trees, rockery buildings, but at the moment, they are all covered by white.

Li Yuanqing also understood that the wall may be the legendary imperial garden.

The palace is very open, but the temperature is very comfortable, not feel cold.

In the middle, there are already small eunuchs and royal chefs busy working, set up a stove, scaffolding, ready for barbecue.

Li Yuanqing, however, had an idea and said with a smile to the eunuch in charge: "this father-in-law, can you prepare a pot for the last general and then slice the mutton?"

Li Yuanqing was the only non Royal person invited to the banquet tonight. The eunuch in charge did not dare to neglect him and said with a smile: "it's a small matter. General Li, you'll be ready at once

"Thank you, father-in-law." Li Yuanqing hastened to smile.

Soon, someone had already prepared the pot and mutton. At this time, the Royal chef also came.

Li Yuanqing also told the imperial chef to make some base materials according to the materials in his memory, and asked him to prepare some fresh tripe.

Although these imperial chefs don't know what Li Yuanqing means, compared with them, Li Yuanqing is much more dignified. In addition, Li Yuanqing is going to roast meat for the emperor tonight, they are not easy to neglect and rush to prepare.

After a while, everything was ready to live.

Li Yuanqing ordered the little eunuch to raise the hot pot, put it on the pot, put in the base material, and when the heat is almost the same, boil the tripe first.

Although hot pot boiled mutton was originated in the Yuan Dynasty, there were not many good ones in Daming. It was not until the end of the Qing Dynasty and the reign of the slave chieftain Qianlong that this kind of eating method flourished.

But later generations, eat barbecue, on the tripe, plus some seafood and so on, has long been a common meal.

Always barbecue, inevitably greasy, coupled with the identity of emperor Tianqi, want to hang his appetite, naturally need to use more brain.

After a while, there was a small eunuch shouting, "Your Highness, the king of letters, is coming."

A moment later, Zhu Youjian came to Li Yuanqing with a smile. Seeing what Li Yuanqing was preparing, he was also curious, but he was highly educated and said, "General Li, it's hard for you."

Li Yuanqing a smile, busy respectful way: "can serve the emperor and his highness, is a humble blessing."

After all, Zhu Youjian was still a child. After asking the courtesy, he said with a smile: "General Li, what are you doing? It looks like it's interesting? "

The tripe is very thin, almost cooked in water, and the base soup is prepared by the Royal chef, and the taste can not be checked.

At this time, the tripe was already ripe. Li Yuanqing took out one and tasted it with a smile. He said to Zhu Youjian with a smile: "Your Highness. This is a kind of eating method of the Mongolians, and it tastes good. Would you like to try one? "

Zhu Youjian's eyes are not only bright but also Mongolian.

At his age, he was most curious about new things.

However, since the founding of Daming, the Mongols have caused countless troubles to Daming. At this time, they can eat their delicious food in the imperial palace. How can he not be excited?

He quickly took a piece of tripe and put it in his mouth. For a moment, his expression was a little strange, "General Li, why is this thing like this? I have never tasted this kind of taste

Li Yuanqing said with a smile: "Your Highness, Maodu is the intestines and stomachs of cattle and sheep. As you are, it is very difficult to eat this kind of food. How do you feel about it? "Zhu Youjian said with a smile: "it's a little evil, but it's strong enough. It's delicious. General Li, do those Mongolian Tartars often eat these things? "

Li Yuanqing said with a smile, "these things are precious to them. Ordinary people can't eat them. Only nobles can eat them regularly. "

Zhu Youjian thought, "these Huawai Tartars eat meat. No wonder they are so belligerent. General Li, can you tell me something about the Tartars and how they eat? "

Li Yuanqing was just about to explain to Zhu Youjian, and to bring closer the relationship with the future Chongzhen emperor. At this time, there was a small eunuch shouting, "the empress has arrived."

The two quickly got out of the way.

For a moment, empress Zhang, accompanied by dozens of eunuchs and maidens, came in from the outside.

Today, she is obviously dressed up carefully. She is wearing a golden crown and a snow-white fur coat. Her lower body is a light green skirt. Her legs are tightly folded up. Under her feet is a pair of exquisite and noble small leather boots, which people dare not face up to.

Zhu Youjian hastily saluted empress Zhang, "my younger brother sees the queen."

Empress Zhang light a smile, "letter King exempts gift." She looked at Li Yuanqing again.

Li Yuanqing, empress Li Yuanqing

At this time, Li Yuanqing is only less than two steps away from empress Zhang, who can clearly smell the fragrance of her body.

However, at this time, although Li Yuanqing knelt down and looked at her feet, his eyes could not help but glance up instinctively. I'm afraid he will never forget the scene of that night

"General Li has made great contributions to our country. Please rise quickly."

Empress Zhang Shi ran smiles and waves her hand to Li Yuanqing to get up and bring a burst of fragrance.

Li Yuanqing this position, is the taste of her body, all inhaled in the abdomen, for a time, can not help but also some relaxed and happy.

"The creator is really amazing. Her front and back faces are so perfect... "

Empress Zhang said with a smile, "King Xin, General Li, what are you doing?"

Zhu Youjian said with a smile: "back to the queen, General Li is making a kind of Mongolian tartar food, which tastes very good."

"Oh?"

Empress Zhang's big jewel like eyes were bright.

Li Yuanqing's whale meat has been eaten by her. What's more, Li Yuanqing personally roasted whale meat for emperor Tianqi, which made the emperor drunk.

That day, it was an impulsive act. Now she calms down and regrets it.

However, she was very interested in Li Yuanqing's craftsmanship and said with a smile, "General Li, can I have a taste of this palace?"

Li Yuanqing quickly said with a smile, "empress, please use it."

Li Yuanqing picked up a bunch of tripe and wanted to deliver it to empress Zhang.

But at this time, a eunuch behind him took the lead and handed it to empress Zhang with a smile

Li Yuanqing some cold, but also understand his impoliteness, busy carefully back to one side, dare not have too much to show.

Empress Zhang picked up this string of tripe and bit her red lips carefully. Her eyebrows frowned. A moment later, she bit a few more, and her pretty face was slightly different. She said with a smile, "General Li, this, this thing, doesn't seem to be very delicious."

Li Yuanqing said with a smile: "empress, the eating method of Mongolian Tartars is a bit crude. You need wine to suppress the evil taste. You must have a bad taste when you eat it alone. Wait a minute. I'll be much better when I finish my humble job. "

Empress Zhang could not help but smile, "that's good. I'll try General Li's craft later. "

Said, she took dozens of followers, curling toward her throne not far away.

Zhu Youjian was just about to continue to ask Li Yuanqing about the Tartars. Outside, another eunuch called out: "the emperor has arrived. Madame Fengsheng arrived. "

For a moment, the emperor Tianqi, accompanied by the Hakkas, walked into the room with a smile.

Around a crowd rushed to salute, empress Zhang also met from the throne.

"No gifts, no gifts."

The little emperor of Tianqi waved his hand with a smile. He seemed in a good mood and said with a smile, "General Li, are you still used to it these days? ha-ha. Mainly because I drank too much that day, and now I have a headache. Otherwise, we can have another barbecue

When the emperor explained this to himself, Li Yuanqing was flattered and said with a smile: "the emperor's love is so great that it's hard to repay his humble position."

But Li Yuanqing said that the beautiful mouth, the heart is some hair Xu.

Although the fact has not been established, the fact is that there is no such thing as empress Zhang

Of course, on the Hakka side, Li Yuanqing didn't have much psychological pressure, while empress Zhang's side was just a beautiful accident.

Li Yuanqing was soon relieved.

The emperor could not help laughing, "General Li, today is new year's Eve. We can't say a word of disappointment. EH. What are you doing

Zhu Youjian said with a smile: "brother emperor, this is what General Li is doing for us. It tastes good. "He is a child, even if there are some cities, but at this time, this kind of happy atmosphere can not be maintained.

Li Yuanqing also had time to make eye contact with the Hakkas.

Today, the Hakka family is obviously more beautiful. She looks at Li Yuanqing with a smile, "General Li has a good skill. Master the skill of these miscellaneous arts. The palace is a little envious. "

Li Yuanqing knew that the glory of Hakka's pretty face was not small. He said with a smile, "it's a blessing of humble duty to share the worries for the emperor and the holy lady."

The emperor laughed, "OK, OK. It's almost time. Let's eat first. It's just going to be hard, General Lee. However, I will not treat you badly. I have prepared two jars of good wine for you

Li Yuanqing kowtowed and said with a smile: "my humble duty, thank the emperor for your kindness."

The emperor and the Hakkas, empress Zhang, and seven or eight concubines were seated respectively. Here, eunuchs and maids began to serve.

Li Yuanqing also understood at this time that the widows of Wanli and Guangzong are not flattering now. There should be no one else tonight, and they are busy with barbecue and hotpot.

Li Yuanqing soon made it almost the same. Suddenly he found that Duke Wei was not here at this time of night?
