Zhiyuan glanced at Liu Bian after eating. Now that the child is growing up, it is definitely not good to eat this.

And a lot of things eaten in the palace are mostly vegetables, and eating meat will cost a lot.

In order to build the eighth school lieutenant of Xiyuan, Liu Hong also saved money on food and expenses, and the food inside the palace was not as good as before.

Zhiyuan thought for a while, and then said to Xu Huang, "Find me an iron plate, a small piece of pork fat, two eggs and a little salt."

"When Shihou is growing up, he should eat a little better."

Xu Huang nodded, and then ordered his men to search for it.Then he asked: "Is the iron plate used for cooking?"

Zhiyuan chuckled: "Of course...today I'll show you what fried eggs are."

But when the iron plate was brought up, Zhiyuan was stunned for a moment again, it turned out to be a heart shield used by generals, with some recesses, the size of a grapefruit.

"Although it's a bit small, it's enough... This thing should be able to stir-fry. Although it's only for one person, it should be fine for Liu Bian to eat." The paper kite was cleaned by someone, and then placed on the charcoal stove.

A group of people gathered around curiously, after all, there is no way to cook like this in this era.Zhiyuan chuckled, threw the fat in, and soon a layer of fat appeared inside the breast-protector.

After turning the fat into oil residue, Zhi Yuan threw the small piece to Xu Huang. "Should the general like this kind of food?"

Xu Huang nodded: "How could you not like it..." Even if there is no fat in it, this thing is still fat, right? He ate it after a few mouthfuls.

Then Zhiyuan opened the egg with one hand and fried it whole.The smell of eggs is naturally very good, and many people are a little drooling.Grease is still very expensive, plus eggs, few people can afford them these days.

The kite put some more salt, and the salt in the palace was relatively clean, at least not very yellow.Then I turned it over with chopsticks and fried it until it was golden... The kids next door, ahem... A group of soldiers were about to cry.

The two fried eggs were not difficult to make, and they were ready in a few minutes, and then they were put into Liu Bian's bowl.

Liu Bian swallowed his saliva, and ate everything in a few mouthfuls.He even licked the bottom of the bowl, feeling unfinished.

Zhiyuan chuckled: "If you can persist in training, I can make you some delicious food every day."

Liu Bian nodded in confusion, then Zhiyuan looked at the time, and said to Liu Bian, "Walk to that place for a quarter of an hour, remember...don't run this time. Then let Gongming find a place to sleep for an hour , I will teach you swordsmanship in the afternoon."

Liu Bian went down with several eunuchs, and then Zhi Yuan looked at Xu Huang. "Are you full? Come to some activities?"

Xu Huang chuckled: "Okay...or step down now?"

Just as Zhi Yuan wanted to say something, she suddenly remembered that her aunt hadn't left yet, so she sighed, "I'm not fit to ride a horse these days."

How old is Xu Huang, and he immediately realized it. He looked at Zhiyuan and shook his head: "We can talk about it in a few days."

Zhiyuan chuckled: "It's just a matter of eating and exercising, Gongming doesn't have to worry. And... if Gongming is not careful, he might suffer a lot..."

Xu Huang's ability should not be low, and Xu Huang is still handsome, this kind of talent must be on good terms.So Zhiyuan swiped the long sword she took out from the arsenal before, and then drew a sword flower.

Xu Huang glanced at the kite, and then took out a big knife.Xu Huang's strength is not small, and the weapon he usually uses is a long knife.

"I've offended..." Now that he made the move, Xu Huang directly stabbed Zhi Yuan with a knife, and the two of them started fighting after a simple test.

Because Zhiyuan came to her aunt, she took very small steps when dodging.This also caused the outsiders to see that the kite was not competing in martial arts but dancing with swords.

After Xu Huang fought Zhi Yuan for more than 20 rounds, he felt that the opponent's strength was not as strong as before.But a woman who has fought so many rounds without letting herself go is indeed very powerful.

Xu Huang is very confident in his ability. After all, he has lived so long, and he has never met an opponent.Even with Zhi Yuan's level of ability, I have never encountered it.

After all, there are not a lot of masters, and the famous ones are all over the place now, and most of the time they will never meet once in a lifetime, which is very normal.

Therefore, it is rare to have the ability of a kite, let alone a girl.After fifty rounds of fighting between the two sides, Xu Huang left the battle.

Because Xu Huang found that Zhiyuan's strength should have been exhausted, and the other party was still menstruating, so it was not suitable for fighting. "Girl is amazing... She's really different from ordinary people." Xu Huang said flatteringly to Zhiyuan.

Speaking of the entire harem, there are not many who can fight.So Xu Huang naturally hoped that he could compete with this girl more in the future, otherwise it would be too boring.

Zhi Yuan clasped her fists together: "As expected of Habayashi Cavalry's captain, he is much better than that captain... Let's go to the back to rest for a while, and we have to hand over to the emperor's swordsmanship in the afternoon."

Xu Huang nodded, and the two left.And some caring people told Wang Ze what happened here.After all, Wang Ze's purpose is to provoke two people and make them confront each other.

Unexpectedly, the relationship between the two became much better after the martial arts competition, and I heard that their kung fu is not weak, which made Wang Ze look bad, after all, he was handled by Zhiyuan with both feet.

"Damn it! What can we do...you just follow them and tell me if the other party makes any moves." Wang Ze ordered to his subordinates.

Then Wang Ze called the court lady Ren Hongchang: "Sister Ren, this is very detrimental to our Wang family. When you leave the palace, ask the Patriarch to see if you can get rid of that woman with secret hands."

"Otherwise, once she becomes the queen, will there be a way for us to survive in the future?"

Ren Hongchang nodded, and then sighed: "Good brother...you take your time to recover from your wounds. Didn't I save that Zhao Shangshu recently? Zhao Shangshu intends to recommend me to become Diao Chan."

"Diao Chan can be regarded as an official position of [-] shi. I think it will be easier to get close to the prince in the future. Although the emperor let the woman follow Shi Hou, it is obvious that he cares more about Liu Xie."

"So in the future, I want to see if I can make Liu Xie interested in me, which can be regarded as a contribution to the Wang family."

Ren Hongchang said to Wang Ze that both of them were cultivated from small families, so they must do everything for the sake of the family.

Diao Chan's position is a position in the management of court headgear.She is already considered a manager rather than an ordinary court lady, so Ren Hongchang is very excited. It seems that there is no Bai Zai in front of Zhao Shangshu.

As for the matter of the kite, it's fine if she doesn't enter the palace. Since she has already entered the palace, it means that the interests of many people have been affected, so some things cannot be avoided.

Chapter 170 Four: Parental Heart

Days passed by, and soon another year passed.

During this year, Zhiyuan also started to make a lot of delicious food with that breastplate, and finally asked Xu Huang to pass a message to the outside, and now it was almost autumn again, so I went to get some leeks.

Not just leeks, but leek flowers... Chive flowers will bloom in autumn. After the stuff is mashed, it tastes the best when it is made into a sauce with salt.

And the leek flower has a little bit of spicy smell, so I asked my hands to find some horseradish, and it is better to mash and mix it.After all, the spicy taste is still popular with many people.

Now Zhiyuan is really free, and even made a jar of bean paste by herself.Soybeans are everywhere. Anyway, the kite is in the palace, and when it looks boring, it opens up its cooking talent.

Then record the method with something, and throw it outside the palace to get it to the plain.And during this period...Liu Hong and He naturally also learned about Zhiyuan's method through the eunuch, so they also ordered people to try it.

Liu Hong's health is very poor now, probably because of fighting with those gentry.So some novel foods can make him feel better.

In fact, both Liu Hong and his predecessor, Emperor Huan, basically died in their 30s. I don't know if they were angry with the gentry or because of other reasons.

Of course...it was too normal to die in your 30s in those days, so it wasn't necessarily a conspiracy theory.After all...the average age of that era was only 28 years old, and a large part of them were broken shortly after birth.

"I heard that this thing is called diced chicken with courgettes. How about a taste, sir?" Mrs. He brought Liu Hong a small plate of diced chicken.

Paper kites are also made casually, after all, there are too few ingredients that can be found in this era.No peanuts, no potatoes... Zhiyuan took the chicken and thought about it for a long time, and finally he could only get a cucumber diced chicken...

After all, there are already cucumbers in this era, um... courgettes, the food that Zhang Qian brought back from his envoy to the Western Regions, Zhiyuan often eats these things with sauce, and treats them as fruits...

Anyway, later generations of Northeast people like to eat it raw, whether it is cucumber, radish, eggplant, pepper or something.Hmm... Radishes were called radish in ancient times, and eggplants are something from the south, and Zhiyuan has never seen them before.As for the chili... let's wash up and sleep.

"How many dishes did Madam learn from that tiger girl? It's really interesting. Where did that tiger girl learn this skill of cooking?" Liu Hong ate a little bit, because there was cucumber, so it was a bit appetizing.

Mrs. He shook her head: "Probably learned from Mr. Wujiao, my concubine probably...it should be because this girl has lived alone for a long time, so she made all these messes."

"Wait until tomorrow... This concubine makes some beef radish soup for my husband to taste. I heard the woman tell the eunuch that this dish can regulate Qi and detoxify. It is a good thing to eat more."

Liu Hong nodded after eating all the dishes: "It's really hard work Madam, my body feels much lighter after eating these delicious dishes."

"It's a pity that the girl has never expressed her opinion, and I don't know if she can marry my son."

Mrs. He hesitated for a moment, and then said to Liu Hong: "That woman is very human, I'm afraid she is not suitable for being in the harem."

"Now that she has been here for a year, because some people said bad things about her, or because of jealousy, she has beaten seven or eight female officials, including two nobles..."

"As for Habayashi Qi, he didn't dare to provoke this woman for a long time, almost in the place where she passed by in the harem, everyone stayed away."

"The concubine found out the day before yesterday that Shihou actually called that woman's elder sister. I don't know when the two of them became sisters and brothers."

Liu Hong frowned: "Sister and brother are compatible? Is it so uninteresting to be the future queen?"

"So what's going on with Shihou now?"

Liu Hong still cared about his incompetent son.

He thought for a while: "I think it is indeed much better than before, and my body is also much stronger."

"A few days ago I went over to take a look in person. Basically, I was running every day and learning swordsmanship. But like this... his teacher Lu Zhi was angry. After all, there is no such thing as learning how to govern the country, but learning Those useless sword skills."

"And Lu Zhi also knows swordsmanship, so he has been asking Shihou to go back as soon as possible, so as not to waste his studies..."

Liu Hong nodded: "After a month, let me see him in person to see if he has improved."

"As for the tiger girl... I'm looking at it, but she is indeed a little noisy. A few days ago, Wang Yun mentioned the tiger girl to me. In short, he was charged with a bunch of crimes."

"Then he was scolded by Tang Zhen...I just realized now...that old man is really a liar, and any bad news about Tiger Girl will make him unhappy."

He suddenly thought of something, and then said to Liu Hong: "The woman said something to the concubine, I think it makes sense..."

"What did she say?" Liu Hong smiled slightly.

To be honest, recently, because of the kite, Mrs. He personally cooks for Liu Hong, and the relationship between the two has become better and better.

Although Liu Hong's health is getting worse and worse, the relationship between husband and wife has improved for some reason.It may be because of Zhiyuan's training of Liu Bian that both of them are more satisfied.

He said to Liu Hong: "Poor parents all over the world..."

Liu Hong was silent for a while, and then said to Mrs. He: "Madam, can you work hard and make two meals? I plan to visit the Queen Mother."

He's face was a little embarrassed, but this made Liu Hong think of his own mother.

But Liu Hong said again: "I know that your relationship is not good, but Shi Hou is indeed a bit weak... If under the training of that tiger girl, there will be some results in the future, I will think about it. Do you understand what I mean?"

Mrs. He immediately showed a smile. To be honest, Liu Xie was left as another concubine of Liu Hong, and Liu Xie was indeed better than Liu Bian in character or other aspects, so the heir to the throne has not been determined.

Liu Hong's mother, Mrs. Dong, liked Liu Xie, and Mrs. He naturally supported Liu Bian. Since Liu Xie was born in the harem, swords and swords have been fighting for almost ten years.

Listening to what He said about Zhi Yuan earlier, Emperor Ling couldn't help but think of what happened when he was a child. His mother also endured it for many years for him.

And if Liu Bian is really promising, Liu Hong will naturally really consider it.After all, Liu Xie is too young. Once he fails, is it possible to let his mother, the Empress Dowager Dong, supervise the country?

My mother is not young anymore, so how can she fight wits and courage with those ministers.So if Liu Bian can use it, Liu Hong will definitely let Liu Bian succeed him.

In history, it was because Liu Hong was about to die and he did not determine an heir, which led to He's alliance with He Jin to kill Dong and her nephew Dong Zhong.Later, because the relatives were too powerful, the He family united with the eunuchs to kill He Jin.

In the end, he was killed by the gentry in one fell swoop, breaking the entire country of the Han Dynasty.

Chapter 170 Five: Liu Hong's Compromise

Empress Dowager Dong's body is stronger than Liu Hong's, and when it comes to being greedy for money, one can only lament that Liu Hong deserves to be born to that Empress Dowager Dong himself.

Dong's money is even more ruthless. Basically, her own Hejian County has no property that has nothing to do with her.So this is also a woman with a strong desire for control, and even influences the government to a large extent.

Of course...the same is true for the He family. If there are two tigresses in one harem, something will happen, especially in the place where the crown prince is fighting.

It is because of these two strong women that Liu Hong can only compromise with each other.And because of the third woman, Tang Zhiyuan... Liu Hong thought of a balance point.

After all, if Liu Bian is really not weak, Liu Hong can also make him the heir. Liu Hong also hopes to continue to suppress the gentry in his heart, and he is now ready to impose another party ban.

As long as the training of the Eighth Colonel of Xiyuan is completed, even if Liu Hong dies, he will have to take some people with him.This is what Liu Hong thinks now, so he doesn't want his harem to be too messy.

This is also a compromise, He nodded: "I'll go and prepare."

Liu Hong nodded, then recalled the taste of this thing. "Tiger girl... Did you learn from that Wujiao Taoist? I don't know if her teacher has the way of longevity. Jian Shuo, you have come into contact with this woman, how much do you know about her secrets?"

In the shadows at the side, Jian Shuo, who had met Zhi Yuan before, came out. "After the last meeting, I felt that this woman was not simple, and then I investigated her through some means..."

"It seems that the other party has something to do with the yellow scarf thief, because for a while someone saw a follower of the tiger girl, who seemed to be the daughter of the thief Zhang Jiao."

"And that woman should be in Liaodong County, Youzhou now, and some yellow scarves in Qingzhou also show signs of moving north."

Liu Hong's face turned cold, and then he thought for a while and asked: "So it is very likely that this is a deal, let the remnants of the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou go to Liaodong to reclaim land, and also stabilize Qingzhou?"

Jian Shuo nodded and said, "This is just my subordinate's guess, but I dare not say for sure. And... There are also some scattered evidences that Tiger Girl once slaughtered some nobles in the city in order to win over refugees."

"But there is no definite evidence, everything is speculation by subordinates. Moreover, this woman is still near Yingchuan, and she privately rescued two or three thousand children of the Yellow Turban Bandits. It was originally Huangfusong who planned to behead them all."

Liu Hong asked again: "Does that mean that the beheadings reported by this woman are fake?"

Jian Shuo shook his head: "I once visited the plains. At that time, tens of thousands of yellow scarf thieves besieged the plains and fought for several months. They fought every day. It was unreal..."

"The battle against the Yellow Turban Bandit at Guangzong's place, because there were many gentry servants participating, there was no cheating... On the contrary, this tiger girl was merciless when she fought, but she was very magnanimous in treating the captives after the war... "

"I guess it's because she is a woman after all, and she may be a woman's benevolence." Jian Shuo said to Liu Hong.

Liu Hong also felt strange. After all, he killed the other party and treated the captives well. This is too contradictory.But this woman seemed to be at odds with the gentry, which made Liu Hong very satisfied.

But this is also what made Liu Hong feel a little dissatisfied with Zhiyuan. After all...there may be many remnants of yellow scarves in the plain now. Could it be that this woman wanted to rebel?

Of course, this idea was quickly rejected by himself, after all...women rebelled?Her brother Tang Tian is really not a rebellious person, because all the reviews are very good, and the most important thing is that he gives him money every year...

Liu Hong thought for a while, and then said to Jian Shuo: "Go arrange a group of people, try...see if she can protect Liu Bian."

"Last time, Liu Bian's attendant reported that Zhiyuan would go out of the palace to play after his exercise... After a while, I plan to organize a hunt in the West Garden. Jian Shuo, do you understand how to do it?"
