Chapter 1989 Six Volumes 44 Thick Oil Red Sauce Talks About Jiangnan (5 more)
The emperor raised his eyebrows, "That's true. During the last tour to the south, Huizhou merchants also brought in vegetables. I saw that they were all heavy oil, heavy color, and heavy firework."

"That's right!" Wanxi stared at her eyes with a smile, "And now Jiangnan is not only Yangzhou, but also Suzhou, Hangzhou, Shanghai and other places. They are also all Huizhou merchants. They are doing business outside and have money, so the famous cities in Jiangnan There are Anhui dishes in every restaurant.”

"Although the traditional taste of Jiangnan is light, but due to the growing momentum of Anhui cuisine, Jiangnan cuisine has gradually become thicker and red sauce."

The emperor thought for a while, then nodded, "You are careful."

Wanxi laughed, "Where is the slave who is careful? If the emperor hadn't told the slave that most of the salt merchants in Yangzhou were Huizhou merchants, how could the slave pay attention to these things?"

The emperor chuckled, and stretched out his hand to pinch Wanxi's cheek.

Wanxi turned over and lay down comfortably on the kang.

"...The great-grandfather of Concubine Chun once served as the governor of Liangjiang. The so-called 'Two Rivers' refers to Jiangnan Province and Jiangxi Province, and Jiangnan Province also governs Jiangsu and Anhui. Therefore, I guess that there must be Anhui dishes on the table of Concubine Chun's family. figure."

"That's why I feel that although Concubine Chun was born in the south of the Yangtze River, she likes to eat dishes with thick oily red sauce. If you want thick oily red sauce, you must have green sauce when cooking."

Wanxi only talked about the taste of green sauce and pure imperial concubine, but the emperor understood the "salt merchant" and the prosperity of Jiangnan.

The emperor snorted softly, stretched out his arms and rubbed the top of Wanxi's hair, "...I told you, I remembered the elm money you made in Shandong, and the fact that you spent all of yourself on the southern tour last time." The whole set of Fengguanxiapei palace attire made for Concubine Qing with the annual silver."

Wanxi smiled and buried her head, "I'm confused. How are these things related?"

The emperor was originally smiling, but now he bared his teeth suddenly.

"Hmph, if you don't admit it again, I'll have to think more about it—I really can't figure out why you need to help Concubine Chun. Unless, you remember that Concubine Chun's son and daughter are all married to the Fu family. , so helping Concubine Chun is actually helping... hum!"

Wanxi raised her head helplessly, got up, and snuggled into the emperor's arms softly.

"Your servant is careless. You shouldn't just add some green sauce to Concubine Chun in the appropriation list, but also suggest that the Ministry of Internal Affairs add a few jars of Shanxi old vinegar to the appropriation list!"

"It just so happens that a few old soy sauce gardens in the capital, such as Liubiju, are all run by Shanxi people. They are very good at making pickles, but their best skill is old vinegar!"

The emperor couldn't help but smile, but he still tried his best to refute, "I didn't say anyone just now. I said that you should protect the four forehead consort and Qilin to protect the living monkey, can't you?"
.
Although winter is coming, if people's hearts are warm, they feel that this winter will not be so severe.

November will be the 65th birthday of the Empress Dowager.

Although it is not a whole life, Chinese people also have the custom of "every five small celebrations", so the emperor has been extra careful this year.

Before the official day of Shengshou, just entering November, the emperor went to the Shoukang Palace for the sake of the Winter Solstice Festival to celebrate the Empress Dowager.Minister Wang saluted at the Cining Gate, and all officials saluted at the Meridian Gate.

The entire court was celebrating the Empress Dowager's birthday, but in this month, there was also news that the Empress Dowager Ding was seriously ill.
