Concubine's Pond

When Huangfu returned to the palace at night, Luo Ran was still busy in the small kitchen in the side hall.

The mouth-watering and seductive aroma wafted in the air, and Jun Niansheng was itching to circle the kitchen entrance, if Luo Ran hadn't ordered Yaoxi to guard the door to prevent him from entering, and threatened him solemnly, I'm afraid he rushed in early.

Seeing Huangfu Ye coming back, he couldn't help but shoot a jealous eye knife, snorted coldly and turned his face away without even saying hello.

"It smells so good." Ignoring his cold eyes, Huangfu Ye took a deep breath of the fragrance in the air, his chest suddenly softened a lot, shocked and surprised, more satisfied and happy, with a dazzling smile on his lips There was a trace of self-satisfaction and pride in it, this is the woman he fancy, who can enter the hall and go down to the kitchen.

"Your Highness, you are back, please go to the back hall to take a shower and change your clothes." Qingling also recovered from the sultry fragrance, and greeted her enviously, "The princess just said, it will take a while OK."

All kinds of envy, jealousy and hatred, Your Highness is not only blessed with beauty, but also with good fortune!

According to the ancient tradition, although the rich and noble girls on the mainland all know some cooking skills, after serving tea to their parents-in-law on the first day of their wedding, they have to prepare an [-]-course lunch for their parents-in-law by themselves. Husband and uncle and sister-in-law enjoy it, or have to make some snacks to exchange favors during festivals, etc., but few people can really do it-what is the use of maids and maids?It would be nice if a wealthy lady can cook one or two special dishes and snacks!

Originally, he was quite worried about the cooking competition in the second round. He thought that he would definitely have to hire a chef with first-class cooking skills to help him. He also held the attitude of watching the show when the princess cooked the meal herself, but Unexpectedly, when he took the princess to the imperial dining room to pick out ingredients, the performance of the princess almost didn't surprise his jaw!

Her familiarity and proficiency in all kinds of meat, vegetables, and fruit materials is no different from that of a female official in the imperial kitchen who has been immersed in cooking for more than ten years. The royal dining room in the palace is mixed!

Not to mention, after returning to the small kitchen in the side hall of His Royal Highness and concubine's bedroom, he stayed to help out of curiosity, and almost hit the instep of his eyes—his princess did not know where to take out a weird one. Thin knife (special scalpel), ordered the little maid named Yaoxi to fish out a golden horned carp two or three feet long and weigh tens of catties from the fish pond in the garden, and pressed it on the cutting board with an excited face !

At that time, his scalp was numb, and he almost couldn't help shouting, Princess, are you going to poison His Highness to death? !

Who doesn't know that although this golden-horned carp has long horns on its head and is extremely beautiful with golden light all over its body, its meat is not only poisonous, but also the most bitter and fishy in the world that cannot be eaten?

Seeing his shock, Her Majesty Wang Hao just cast a contemptuous and disdainful look, and then saw her dazzled by scraping scales and bleeding, the knife gleamed coldly, and quickly cut two pieces from the carp's lower abdomen and head. gall and poison sac, and then the little maid took the knife according to her instructions, shook it vigorously, and countless viscera spit out from the mouth and excretion port of the fish, and sliced ​​the whole carp into thin slices with hands like phantoms. The dark yellow fish fillets were neatly placed on the large porcelain plate one after another like petals, and then something happened that left him speechless——

Her Majesty Wangfei opened a small jar of old wine, and poured it expressionlessly. Suddenly, the unappetizing dark yellow fish meat became pink and white, and the pieces were crystal clear. People's throats seem to have claws...

Hiss... I don't want to, the more I think about it, the more greedy I get!Qing Ling gulped down the profuse saliva, straightened her mind seriously, and waited for Huangfu Ye to take a bath and change clothes.

……

When Huangfu Ye came back again, Luo Ran had simply prepared eight dishes and one soup, and all of them had been served on the table. The color, fragrance and flavor were all complete, and the mouth-watering aroma made people involuntarily suck in the air and salivate.

Jun Niansheng was the one who sat down the fastest, picked up the chopsticks and went straight to the most conspicuous large plate of pink, white and crystal clear 'meat' slices on the table, but Luo Ran frowned coldly with a "snap" Hold it with chopsticks.

"Wait a minute, this wine will taste better with the wine that Yao Guang brought back, eat other!"

Jun Niansheng gave her a sad look, curled his lips unwillingly, looked at the other seven dishes, and raised his eyebrows involuntarily, "Today's meal is a whole fish feast? How delicious but one of the most difficult ingredients to cook is fish? The aroma smells good, but except for grilled fish, the rest of the steaming and cooking are either fishy and tasteless as soon as you eat it, or salty and salty if you put too much salt sauce Unappetizing……"

Even Huangfu Ye, who was seated with a refreshing aroma after bathing, raised his eyebrows high, fish, but it's a dish that no imperial chef with decades of skill would dare to cook...

A group of bumpkins who have never seen the world, they can't even eat fish, and they don't know how to use seasoning to get rid of the smell...

Luo Ran rolled her eyes unceremoniously, motioned for Qingling to sit down with Yaoxi, pointed to the dishes on the table, and began to introduce: "That's right, the black and white one is black fish roll with jade belt, and there is a thin layer on the outside. Thin black fish fillets, the thinner the better, the fillings are marinated hind legs, chicken breast, shiitake mushrooms and magnolia slices shredded together. After the black fish fillets are rolled up, then Close the mouth with egg white batter and tie it with chives. Put it on the plate and steam it for a while, pour the broth thickened on the black fish roll, add a few drops of sesame oil, and it’s done. How about it, eat it, and give a comment..."

Before she could finish her sentence, several pairs of chopsticks impatiently picked up the plate of black fish roll with jade belt.

"Tender and white, salty and smooth!" This was the first sentence Jun Niansheng spit out with his eyes shining!

After being preempted by Huangfu Ye who swallowed the first bite of black fish roll with jade belt, he suddenly felt deep regret - he must have been kicked in the head by a horse, how could his beloved wife's cooking skills be shown in front of other men!

Qingling and Yaoxi kept silent, burying their heads in hard work was their greatest affirmation.

In an instant, more than half of the stack of black fish rolls with jade belts was gone.

Especially Jun Niansheng, the plates in front of him were piled up with five or six black fish rolls with jade belts, if Huangfu Ye hadn't glared at him fiercely to show that his women hadn't eaten yet, he might have snatched them all away.

Seeing their support, Luo Ran smiled brightly, her black pupils looked around brightly, and continued to introduce proudly with a sense of accomplishment, "It's 'Golden Squid Roll', fried mullet wrapped in bread|skin, The characteristic is crispy and crispy. This is 'Fried Black Fish Steak', golden in color, charred on the outside and tender on the inside. This is 'Oil Splashed Black Fish', with tender meat and delicious fragrance. This is 'Xue Wang Cai Yu Hua', which is oily and beautiful. Delicious and slightly spicy. This is 'Crispy Pepper Fish Dice', red and white, crispy and slightly spicy, with a unique flavor... oh!"

"Stop talking, eat quickly!" Huangfu Ye interrupted her, and stuffed a piece of crispy fish diced into her mouth, her eyes were full of burning tenderness and admiration proud of her.

"...Mmm." With her face flushed, Luo Ran smiled, her heart was filled with warmth, and after eating the crispy pepper fish in her mouth, she got up and served him a bowl of boiled milky fish White jade silver fish soup, "Drink some soup to cushion your stomach before drinking."

"It's delicious." The whitebait melts in the mouth, it's extremely delicious, and the white jade tofu is tender and smooth. Huangfu Ye smiled dazzlingly and contentedly, and his peerless eyes burst with endless tenderness and brilliance, which made Jun Niansheng, who was facing the wind and clouds, very unhappy. I almost couldn't help but slap her across the face, Hong Guoguo's show off is not for nothing!

So, he pointed with his chopsticks sourly to the pink and white 'meat slice' that Luo Ran forbade him to eat from the beginning: "Xiao Raner, what is this?"

The bumpkin doesn't even know sashimi!A certain ran was completely despised from the bottom of my heart.

She pulled out a smug and sly smile, and was about to explain when she was interrupted by a voice——

"Master, you have brought back the wine you wanted." After returning from the palace in a hurry, the steaming Yao Guang breathed a sigh of relief, respectfully handed over the wine jar under his arm, and sat down calmly. Beside Yaoxi.

"What wine?" Jun Niansheng, who was feeling a little regretful that there was no wine on the table, immediately lit up his phoenix eyes, exuding a different temperament from his whole body.

Luo Ran handed the wine to Huangfu Ye Pai Kaifeng Ni, and a rich and seductive aroma of the wine immediately wafted out.Qingling had great eyesight, immediately got up to take the wine jar, and filled the jade bowls for everyone one by one.

"Spiritual ape wine! Isn't this..." Xun regarded it as his life's precious wine!Jun Niansheng almost yelled out, caught a glimpse of Luo Ran's slashed eyes, and immediately changed his tone, laughing so wickedly: "This is not an ordinary good wine, it is said that it is made from a hundred kinds of precious wild wine by the spirit apes in the mountains. Brewed from fruit, it is extremely precious, and it is difficult for ordinary people to find it, Xiao Ran, you are really powerful."

Luo Ran rolled his eyes at him again, hmph, you evildoer, you are wise.

"That's right, it's Spirit Ape Wine." With sly black eyes, she raised her chin with joy, gestured to the large plate of pink, white and crystal-clear sashimi, and added a little bit of what she saw in the Earth's Mountain and Sea Classics. The change said, "I have seen this golden horned carp in a book of rare beasts of the extinct Millennium Dynasty. It is a rare delicacy in the world. It is best eaten raw. It is even better served with spirit ape wine (monkey wine). It is extremely delicious, but the method is more troublesome, you must carefully handle the gall and poison sac, otherwise it will be too bitter to eat and you will be poisoned, try them all.”

She also said it for the first time.But when it was ready, she ate some, and to her discerning palate, it was all delicious.

"Raw? Is it best to eat raw?" Jun Niansheng's eyes were surprised, he took a sip of the wine, and fearlessly picked up a few thin slices of snow-white crystal fish with jade chopsticks and put them in his mouth to chew a few times, with an expression on his face Immediately froze.

It was like being strangled by the neck.

Everyone is staring at him, why this expression?Is it bad or delicious?

After being frozen for a long time, Jun Niansheng let out a long sigh, and closed his long and narrow phoenix eyes, a drop of crystal overflowed from the corner of his eyes!

Is this evildoer so delicious?

The corners of Luo Ran's mouth twitched as he watched, and he picked up a piece of sashimi with chopsticks and brought it to Huangfu Ye's mouth. Huangfu Ye looked at her with burning eyes, as if he would swallow it without hesitation even if it was poison she brought to his mouth.

"Miao... It's so wonderful! The world's most delicious! The fragrance of fish and wine are perfectly combined, and the whole mouth has that smooth and fragrant feeling. If you are not careful, you can even swallow it with your tongue!" Jun Nian Sheng's face was full of dreams and happiness, "I feel like I have lived in vain for hundreds of years!"

Poke... you damn evildoer!Is it necessary to be so provocative!

Luo Ran rolled her eyes, and took another piece of sashimi with chopsticks, but this time it was stuffed into her mouth.

"Xiao Ran'er, I regret it, you should come with me!" The next moment, Jun Yaoxie paid her attention, heartbroken.

"You're dreaming." Thin lips spat out three cold words with infinite murderous intent, Huangfu Ye stretched out his big hand declaring ownership, and pulled the person directly into his arms to trap him, strictly preventing him from defending himself.

She is his priceless treasure, he will never give her up, even if that person is stronger than himself now!

Jun Niansheng narrowed his phoenix eyes playfully, and shrugged his shoulders with a half-smile, "Okay, I'll make a note of that."

"Eat, the vegetables cool down quickly on rainy days." Luo Ran was funny and annoyed, and patted the arms tightly wrapped around her waist comfortingly.

"Remember, you are not allowed to run with other men." Pursing the corners of his lips, Huangfu Ye felt a strong sense of crisis, and whispered threats in her ear, "You are mine!"

"Yes, yes..." Luo Ran was stunned for a moment, then squinted at him and smiled, as beautiful as a flower, with warmth and tranquility flowing from her clear eyebrows and eyes.Sighing in my heart, Huangfu Ye, I hope that you and I will enjoy each other year after year, and the years will be peaceful and peaceful.

Huangfu Ye smiled in satisfaction, took her left hand, brought it to her lips and kissed it lightly, "Good boy."

The haze of the rainy day was dispelled by warmth.

……

Full of wine and food, side hall study.

The aroma from the bronze beast stove in the corner, against the fragrance of books in the room, is even more elegant and pleasant, calming the mind and mind.

"What do you want from me?" Jun Niansheng slumped on the beauty's couch with no manners, his whole body smelled of wine, and his long and narrow phoenix eyes seemed a little blurred due to the alcohol, which was really touching.

However, Huangfu Ye, the only audience member, didn't even glance at him from the corner of his eyes, and slowly sipped good tea with his back to sober up.

"What are you going to do after she finishes working her muscles and bones?" Huangfu Ye slightly lifted his lips, closing his eyes slightly to hide the dark tide in his eyes. Not yet."

"...Didn't you guess it? Why beat around the bush." ​​Jun Niansheng lazily fanned his eyelash feathers, his phoenix eyes were bottomless.

"...She won't be in danger, right?" The corners of Huangfu Ye's lips slightly raised, with a fox-like calculation.

"Nonsense." Jun Niansheng rolled his eyes, sat up, and stared straight at his back with half-closed phoenix eyes, as if to shoot him through, "It's you, I'm curious, you have already broken through to this point What are you going to do now?"

The unwritten rules on the mainland have reached this level, and they can no longer intervene in the battles of secular dynasties.

"One year later, I will take her back to the Ye family." Huangfu Ye took a sip of the fragrant tea, his voice was low and calm, as if he had already made a decision.

"...Aren't you forcing me to spend a lot of money?" Jun Niansheng was stunned for a while, then turned around and left with gritted teeth, shouting: "Yaoguang, the plan can't keep up with the changes, reconfigure the prescription to strengthen the meridians!"

Behind him, Huangfu Ye raised the corners of his mouth in joy of success.
