Chapter 548 Big fanfare
When it was getting dark, the potatoes were brought into the palace.

After Caiwei prepared dinner, she went to the imperial dining room and taught the imperial chefs in the imperial dining room how to make potato cakes.

At ten o'clock at three o'clock the next day, the imperial dining room was brightly lit and busy.

In the Jinluan Palace, the ministers who had something to report had all finished their reports and were waiting to retire and go to the Gongse Canteen to drink a bowl of hot mutton soup.

"Having been in court for so long, are you hungry?" Feng Chenghan, who was sitting on the dragon chair, asked as he looked at the civil and military officials standing below.

The ministers all looked surprised. This was the first time they heard the emperor ask them such a question. They began to speculate in their hearts about the emperor's intention and how to answer.

Feng Chenghong touched his stomach and replied: "To be honest, my brother is really a little hungry."

He got up late this morning, and he couldn't eat anything to cushion himself before going out. Now he was really hungry and his stomach growled twice.

Seeing King Hong's answer, the others followed suit: "I'm a little hungry too."

"It's so cold today that I'll get hungry quickly."

Feng Chenghan winked at Wang Xin, who understood and waved to the young eunuch standing at the door connecting the side hall.

The little eunuch hurriedly opened the door and walked into the side hall. After a while, more than ten little eunuchs walked from the side hall to the main hall carrying food boxes.

"Just in time, I ordered the imperial kitchen to make cakes with new and novel ingredients, which can satisfy your hunger." After saying that, Feng Chenghan asked the young eunuchs to distribute the cakes in the food boxes to the ministers.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

The ministers knew in their hearts that the emperor scattered the cakes for them to satisfy their hunger in the morning. This was not out of sympathy for them and to let them eat the cakes to satisfy their hunger. The emphasis was on this novel ingredient.

Moreover, the emperor specially ordered the imperial kitchen to prepare it and feed it to them during the morning court. He must have other intentions.

As soon as the food box was opened, the aroma of the cakes spread out, making the already hungry people even more hungry.

The little eunuchs walked up to the ministers holding the food boxes and asked them to take them one by one.

Feng Chenghong looked at the golden cakes and took two without thinking.

The little eunuch holding the food box moved his lips when he saw him taking two, but still didn't say anything.

Each person can only take one piece of this cake.

As soon as Zhang Su smelled the fragrance, he knew that the cake was made of potatoes. Obviously, the potatoes grown in the field were ripe.

Feng Chenghong opened his mouth wide and bit into a potato cake as big as the palm of his hand, turning it into a crescent moon. His eyes suddenly lit up. This cake was delicious.

It's soft and delicious, and has a unique fragrance that seems similar to deja vu.

Feng Chenghong had eaten baked potato chips in Leng Gong, so he felt that it was similar.

“Delicious and fragrant.”

"This pancake is soft, just like my toothpaste, and tastes good."

"Yes, the pancakes are very delicious." Many ministers said while eating.

A potato pancake, finished quickly.

Feng Chenghong ate two and was still a little unsatisfied, but when he saw that all the food boxes were empty, he had to take out a handkerchief and wipe his hands.

"Brother Emperor, what is this pancake made of? It's so delicious." Feng Chenghong said with a smile.

"Potato."

Potato?

Isn't that the soil lump that Concubine Leng presented to the emperor and asked Sinong Temple to be responsible for planting?It turns out this is what it feels like.

I heard that Sinong Temple even built a shed in order to grow this thing, which was a lot of work and money.The ministers are basically not optimistic about it, thinking that if they grow crops in winter, they will definitely freeze to death when it snows.

I ate this cake made from potatoes today. It was obvious that the potatoes were not frozen to death, but were also ripe. The emperor also specially asked the imperial kitchen to make cakes and bring them to them during the court. Obviously, they are not the same as potatoes. It's as simple as just being mature.

Taifu Yun suddenly felt that the cake he had just eaten no longer tasted good.

"Let's withdraw from the court first. All my dear friends, please go and use some things. We will gather at the gate of the palace in an hour and set off to the imperial village to see the potato harvest." After Feng Chenghan finished speaking, he heard Wang Xin's "Retreat from the court". He got up and left, leaving the whole hall full of stunned ministers.

"It's just a potato with a low yield that has matured. Does the emperor need to make such a big show of asking us all to go to the emperor's village to watch the potato harvest?"

Zhang Su smiled as he walked outside. The yield is not high. It's a joke. When you see the potatoes being dug out with your own eyes, you will know how high the yield is.

"To be honest, I don't think it's necessary."

"The Emperor is not ungrateful in his actions. This move should not be just to make Beauties smile."

"There must be another reason."

The courtiers were talking about it, and then they gradually turned their attention to the smiling Yu Siqing.

"Qing Yu Si, your Sinong Temple is responsible for growing those potatoes. Do you know what's going on?"

"You must know that, right?"

Yu Siqing stroked his beard and said, "Everyone will know when you leave the city in an hour. It would be meaningless for me to say it."

After saying that, Yu Siqing ignored other people's questions and left with the people from Sinong Temple.

"Hey, this old guy is still showing off." The minister who was close to him pointed at his back and laughed and cursed.

Fengcheng Han went directly to Lengxiang Palace as soon as he went to court. Leng Luoyue and Xiaomao'er had just finished their breakfast.

Feng Chenghan asked someone to prepare some breakfast for him, and asked Leng Luoyue and Xiaomao'er to clean up and follow him out of the palace later.

"What are you doing out of the palace?" Leng Luoyue asked curiously.

Wang Xin smiled and replied on behalf of the emperor: "The emperor asked all civil and military officials to go to the palace to see the potato harvest. These potatoes were presented by the empress, so naturally they should go and witness them."

Oh, Leng Luoyue nodded.

She also really wanted to see the happy expressions of the old farmers when the potatoes were harvested, and the shocked looks of the civil and military officials, so she took the kitten to the inner hall to clean up.

It didn't snow today and the sun came out, but the temperature was still very low.

Leng Luoyue asked Caiwei to put on a down vest and down pants for the kitten. She also wore a light blue brocade robe with embroidered auspicious moire patterns. Her hair was tied up in a small bun, and she put on a small bun knitted with cashmere thread. hat and fluffy rabbit fur earmuffs.

These hats and earmuffs were made by Concubine Xu from Leng Palace!

On her feet were little deerskin boots, the insides of which were full of soft fur.

He was also covered with a white rabbit fur coat, and there was a charcoal stove burning in the hall for warmth. He was so fully equipped that the kitten screamed that it was hot.

Caiwei took off his fur coat first, and the kitten ran out to find his father.

Obviously he had already eaten breakfast, but when he saw his father eating braised eggs, the little greedy cat became greedy again and asked his father to feed him two bites of egg yolks.

After Feng Chenghan finished eating, Leng Luoyue also finished cleaning up and came out. She was wearing a bun with a cloud, a set of red coral hair and face, some makeup on her face, and her lips were as red as the red coral on her head.

She was covered in a thick white satin embroidered rabbit fur coat with plum blossoms, and there was a circle of snow-white fluff on the hat, which made her look smaller and added a bit of innocence and cuteness.

Feng Chenghan couldn't help but look at it several times.
