Dali Temple Small Dining Room 2

Chapter 143 Braised Pork ([-])
Because the "immortal" choked to death eating the roast leg of lamb, the late emperor's desire to "ask the immortal" had to give up for the time being, and went back to study the art of immortals with those familiar "descendants of Ziwei Palace".

Lin Fei deliberately brought out these two incidents that had been separated for several years, and pointed out the similarities between them. Naturally, it was not to make fun of the Goguryeo "immortal" being choked to death.

"Now that elixir has been stolen, the two of you have received the imperial decree to find the elixir for the envoys. Of course, you must strictly investigate all people who may come into contact with the elixir. Both inside and outside the imperial city, whether they are Darong people or Goguryeo people, must Strictly investigate one by one." Lin Fei paused for a while when he said this to the two, and after a moment of pondering, he said again, "Let's start with the Goguryeo people!"

After all, they were the envoys of Goguryeo, and it represented the face of Goguryeo when they came to Dayong. Originally, it was inconvenient for them in Dayong to intervene and inquire about these matters.

Liu Yuan and Bai Zhu understood: since the Goguryeo people are looking for elixir, they can use this opportunity to investigate those envoys openly.

They know what to do, but they still don't understand.

"That man is arrogant by nature, named... why is he named?" Liu Yuan didn't remember the name of the dead scholar for a while.

"Sudansheng." Bai Zhu reminded him.

"Yes, his name is Sudansheng. No matter how talented that scholar is, he has never even been an official. What can a few Goguryeo envoys have anything to do with him?" Liu Yuan was a little puzzled, "One hasn't participated yet. It's just a scholar of the scientific examination."

Leaving aside, let's just say that he and Bai Zhu were also known as talents when they took the scientific examination back then?

There are many such talented scholars in every scientific examination. What is so special about this Sudanese student?

"I don't know." Bai Zhu said, shook his head, paused, and said, "But you can visit that prostitute named Jin Yanxiu from Goguryeo, and ask her about her situation at that time."

This prostitute is still staying in that brothel in Chang'an, so it's easy to find.

Dive headlong into the case files, the time flies by so fast, when the bell rang at the hour of the unitary hour, few people remembered that it was time to eat evening food.

Master Wen's evening food is very attractive.

Liu Yuan and the others put down the files in their hands and left the lobby.

Passing through the square in the middle of the public kitchen, before arriving at the public kitchen, a strong smell of pork has already filled the air.

"It smells so good!" A few servants nearby took a few deep breaths of the rich smell of pork meat in the air, and one of the servants couldn't help but sighed, "The smell of so fragrant braised pork meat, it seems that today's Mushi Wen master Think of it as braised pork.”

"I don't know how to do it, but it smells like this?" Another guard couldn't help sniffing the smell in the air again while answering the conversation, and sighed, "What I make at home is around the stove. It’s not as fragrant when it’s just out of the pan!”

Guided by this strong fragrance, everyone naturally walked quickly, and entered the public kitchen in three quick steps.

In the public kitchen, the stewed pork in the big casserole tasted so strong that Tang Yuan and A Bing, who were helping to place the bowls on the counter, swallowed several mouthfuls of saliva.

Compared with the servants, this big casserole of braised pork is close to them. The smell keeps coming to their nostrils. Who can stop it?

Swallowing uncontrollably, the two looked at Wen Mingtang at the side eagerly: "Master Wen, can we eat today's evening meal first?"

I don't know how Master Wen, who made such delicious food, resisted the aroma.

Wen Mingtang looked at the two pairs of big eyes staring at her eagerly, but spread his hands and made a "helpless" gesture, and then heard a familiar voice from outside the public kitchen.

"Hey! Look what we saw? The cook is stealing food!" Liu Yuan joked, and stepped into the public kitchen.

Before entering the courtyard just now, the smell came over like every thread.Now that they entered the courtyard, the smell was even more overbearing, and the stomachs of everyone who were already hungry were grumbling non-stop.

This joking made A Bing and Tangyuan grimace, and the two admitted frankly: "Who can resist the braised pork in this casserole?"

If you can't help it, you don't have to bear it.

Wen Mingtang pointed to the food table and said to the two with a smile, "I'll share the dishes today, you two should eat first!" As he spoke, he raised his hand and lifted the lid of the casserole.

The white mist dissipates, and the smell of meat wrapped in a rich sauce rushes to the face. The sauce in the pot is slowly bubbling, and the square-sized braised pork meat is squeezed into the casserole with the slightly open fire in the pot Trembling.

Wen Mingtang sprinkled a handful of chopped green onions to add the last bit of "color" to this pot of braised pork meat, and began to share dishes for everyone.

Because he sniffed the rich soy sauce several times intoxicated, Liu Yuan, who was the first to enter the public kitchen, had no time to get to the head of the line, so he had to wait at the end of the line.

While queuing up and sniffing the rich and seductive fragrance in the air, Liu Yuan was deeply moved: "It's really a torture to see what you can't eat."

However, fortunately, Wen Mingtang divided the dishes neatly, and the people in front of the queue were also eager to eat, without any delay, and the queue was also fast.

It didn't take much effort when it was Liu Yuan's turn.

Looking at the small bowl of braised pork wrapped in sauce on the plate, Liu Yuan couldn't help joking, "It seems that the little pork that is missing in the morning food is made up for in the evening food!"

Wen Mingtang responded with a smile. Seeing that no one was queuing behind Liu Yuan, he picked up the food box on the side and started filling the food box with meat.

Looking at the familiar food box, Liu Yuanchao and Wen Mingtang winked: "It's Lin Shaoqing's again?"

Wen Mingtang nodded, glanced at him, and said, "I heard that Mrs. Hou likes my cooking very much."

Because of Mrs. Hou's liking, her purse has also been enriched a lot,
"The group of people in the internal affairs yamen are really slow in doing things!" Liu Yuan sighed and sighed, "Master Zhao has already said hello, but the people at the bottom have not yet finished the matter!"

How can it take so long to wait for such a small matter?At a glance, someone is stumbling again!
There is no one else to make the trip except that King Yu.

"It's really busy, no wonder Lin Shaoqing wants to re-investigate the old case." Liu Yuan sat down in front of the food table, picked up the chopsticks to pick up the braised pork in the bowl.

This braised pork is made of fat and white pork. It has been simmered in a casserole for several hours, and it is already soft and rotten. It can be easily poked through with chopsticks.The pork skin wrapped in a layer of mellow sauce was gently pulled, and it was torn apart with a sticky texture.

Looking at the pork that was easily torn apart, Liu Yuan couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "It's really a dish that takes a lot of work!"

How can ordinary braised pork meat be so crispy, sticky and thick?

After packing the braised pork in Lin Fei's food box, Wen Mingtang raised his head, seeing Liu Yuan finish his emotion, put a piece of braised pork into his mouth, and immediately a dimple appeared on his face.
