Zhao Defang's road to the virtuous king

Defang, Concubine Di, and Ling'er got into the carriage, and called Ke'er up. The shop quickly cooked three plates, and Chongming Shangen hurriedly loaded the carriage, and brought four bowls of porridge and some simple side dishes to accompany the porridge. , Ling'er looked at Jianjiao, "Father, mother, this smells so good."

Defang put one into Ling'er's small plate, "Eat it while it's hot, you're starving, hehehe"

"Father and mother eat too."

"Good boy" Defang also took one for Concubine Di, "Ma'am, try it."

"Thank you, master, let's eat together." Defang and Concubine Di bit off the fried corners and kept nodding. Defang said, "It's really delicious. The skin is crispy and the stuffing is fresh and fragrant."

"Yeah, this thin layer of dough is not only not broken, but also fried just right, it's amazing."

"Ker" Defang asked, "Why hasn't this kind of food been cooked in the house?"

"My lord, there are also fried horns in Beijing, but there are no small shops that specialize in selling them, and they are not so delicious. Moreover, ordinary people's houses fry the leftover horns from the previous meal, so they can't be served on the table."

"What's left? Then the diners left over from before will be fried and eaten in the dining room?"

"That's right, the leftover meals are also food, no matter how poor they are, they are better than ordinary people's. The steward Gu of the dining room will give some to the handymen in the house every time."

"There is such a thing?" Defang was very surprised

"Yeah." Ke'er nodded, "Gu Guanshi said it was the prince...it was your command, and the handymen are all very grateful."

"Gu Guanshi is really kind-hearted, no wonder his son Weishan is so kind."

"Master" said Concubine Di, "The people in the mansion are all people who have been with you for decades. They are loyal, kind, and even being kind is blessed. They are favored and named by you, and they study and practice martial arts with Neng'er."

"Everything is fate, hehehe" Defang turned her head slightly, only to see Ling'er puffing her mouth, chewing hard, and quickly pushed the porridge "Ling'er, eat slowly, drink the porridge quickly, don't choke .”

Linger shook her head, chewing and laughing, Defang said, "Ma'am, look at this little guy who has only been hungry for an hour and has become like this, hahaha"

Jiajun, Baili, and Chongming Shangen outside the carriage were also eating. After eating their breakfast, they went to the Earth Temple in the city. After burning incense, they walked around and ate hot fresh food in the city Xiangzamian, Defang said, "Ma'am, my stomach is full now, do you want to take a rest?"

"No, it's hard to get out of Beijing. How can we always rest? Let's go on. The candy seller is in the south of the city. Let's take some. We can go to Heitugang before evening. We can also see the wheat fields along the way. Just stay in a small inn."

"Okay, just listen to Madam." Defang and the others got on their horses and headed towards the south of the city. When they arrived at a small shop selling sugar cakes, Jia Jun jumped off the horse, "Master, there are some other snacks, what should I buy?"

Defang asked, "Shopkeeper, I heard that your rolled sugar rice cake is very good, what other snacks do you have?"

"My lord, and this sweet-scented osmanthus cake is also delicious."

"Okay, Jiajun, sell rice cakes for 20 yuan and twenty round cakes."

"Yes" Jiajun ran to give the money, and the shopkeeper helped to wrap it in oiled paper, "The guest officer takes it, and come back after eating it."

"Shopkeeper, we are just passing by here and rushing out of the city."

"So that's how it is, guest officer. There is an inn [-] miles away from the city. It's in Heitugang. You can stay there."
