Chapter 128 Lamb and Carrot

Chapter 128 Lamb and Carrot

"Actually, I'm reluctant to live a comfortable life now, eat well, wear warm clothes, have power, act recklessly, and..." Xiao Chen spoke the truth.

And Murong Danqiu's soul mate, Duanmu Nanqiao's confidante, and...

"And Liu Ruyun's little hoof!" Murong Danqiu said sourly.

"Sometimes I think, it would be really nice to live like this for the rest of my life." Xiao Chen sighed softly.

He really only wants to lie drunk on the lap of a beautiful woman, and he doesn't want to wake up and take over the power of the world.

Too tired.

"Hmph, you're so worthless, I see you'll just be a little eunuch all your life!" Murong Danqiu hated him for not fighting.

"If I want to be worthless, I can't do it. I see that the emperor is determined to get me out...Dan Qiu, do you think it's okay if I go to Luomapo to accompany Lord Murong?" Xiao Chen finally got to the point.

"I was about to tell you about this too. My father wrote to me and told me he wanted you to go. Hehe, he actually thought highly of you. He said you were a young hero, an unparalleled national scholar. I don't think you look like that." !” Murong Danqiu curled his lips as he spoke.

"Tsk tsk tsk, the old man really has discernment!" Xiao Chen praised loudly.

"The old man even played the emperor's performance, and he wants you to go to the roll call." Murong Danqiu said again.

"Not really?" Xiao Chen was both surprised and delighted.

Then what Li Wanjiang meant just now was to let him go to Luomapo.

"Well, I reckon the emperor will allow it. With your current status, even a small place can't accommodate you. The reason why my father is in a hurry to tell the emperor to want you is because he is afraid that you will be taken by Li Wanyun or other princes and generals." Let's go." Murong Danqiu said.

"Am I so popular now?" Xiao Chen smiled triumphantly.

"I'm really worried about you going to other places. You'll be fine with my father. He will definitely take good care of you and allow you to make some military exploits. You will be honorable when you return to the palace." Murong Danqiu had always been Silently planning for Xiao Chen.

But she didn't know that Xiao Chen would never come back after leaving this time.

"Otherwise, you should also tell the emperor, go home to visit your relatives, and let's go together!" Xiao Chen suddenly had a whim.

"Hehe, you are stupid, my hometown is not in Luomapo, and besides, I am a queen, how can I go so far away so easily?" Murong Danqiu sighed leisurely.

"Hmph, I'm afraid Li Wanjiang dare not let you go back!" Xiao Chen felt a little sour in his heart, after all Dan Qiu was just a hostage.

With her by her side, he can still take care of her. If he leaves, who will protect her in the future?

"It's good if you know! So, you have to be good when you go to Luomapo, but don't cause any trouble." After a pause, he continued, "You don't have to worry about me, I don't stay in the palace for a day or two Well, I wasn't fine when you didn't come?"

"Well, I will take good care of the old man, as long as he is fine, you will be fine." Xiao Chen said.

"Xiao Chen, I would like to ask you one more thing, can you help me find out the whereabouts of that person outside?" The person Murong Danqiu was talking about was naturally Zhu Yuanqi, also known as Xiao Chen himself.

"You're still thinking about him, he might have died a long time ago!" The jealous surge in my heart was really inexplicable.

"Live to see a person, die to see a corpse... I always feel that he is not dead, and he seems to be by my side all the time, do you think it is strange?" As a woman, Murong Danqiu's intuition is quite amazing.

"The ghost is still there, so it can be seen that he is already dead. Even if he is not dead, I will kill him if I find him!" Xiao Chen was so jealous that he thought of suicide.

Xiao Chen undeniably likes Murong Danqiu, he has already tacitly allowed her to be his wife since his hard-to-come-true dream.

He likes her so much, but is he thinking about others?

Just ask you what makes Zhu Yuanqi better than me!

"He has no grievances with you, why did you kill him?" Of course Murong Danqiu knew why, but he also believed that if Xiao Chen really found Zhu Yuanqi, he would definitely not kill him, and would try his best to kill him. Bring it to yourself.

This trust in Xiao Chen can also be said to be very amazing.

This is what makes Xiao Chen cute, and it's also what makes Murong Danqiu cute.

That's why they appreciate each other.

But Xiao Chen's cuteness is far more than that, he can even cook.

After finishing the errands, Xiao Chen also had leisure.

A few days ago, Li Wanjiang gave him some fat sheep, didn't he?

Xiao Chen decided to cook a mutton feast for Murong Danqiu himself.

He ordered people to set up a stove in the courtyard of Kunning Palace, and asked several young eunuchs to cut the lamb's hind legs into small pieces, thread them on sticks, and sprinkle some salt to marinate for a while.

Then spread the two sheep's front legs with his own secret sauce, wrap them tightly with a few big lotus leaves, wrap the outside with a layer of mud, and throw them directly into the charcoal fire for stewing.

I chopped a lamb chop, put it into a large casserole and blanched it with water, skimmed off the foam, and cut the yellow things into small pieces and threw them in.

"What is this?" Murong Danqiu on the side looked curiously, it looked like a bergamot, but there was only one root, if it was a loofah, it was yellow.

"It's called radish, carrot." Xiao Chen explained, "Eating radish in autumn and ginger in summer are all nourishing for the solar terms."

As long as there is a word "Hu" or "foreign" in front of the vegetables, it must be imported, such as onions, peppers...

There is no such vegetable as carrots in China now, and he discovered this from the Wilson ship, because carrots contain carotene and various vitamins, which are not only rich in nutrients, but also prevent night blindness.

Therefore, ocean-going sailors like Wilson carried a large amount of carrots every time they sailed, and even got a small piece of land on board to grow them.

Because there is no refrigerator now, the meat and vegetables on board cannot be preserved at all. In order to allow the crew to eat fresh food, many large ocean-going ships will grow vegetables and raise animals.

Why do you think there are chickens, ducks, pigs, sheep, and even vegetables and rice on those deserted islands in the ocean? These sailors brought them over.

What Xiao Chen brought back was not only carrots, but also pepper, chili, cumin, onions... these things that Da Zhou didn't have.

No wonder Murong Danqiu was curious.

The mutton and carrots are almost stewed, Xiao Chen starts to add seasonings, a little bit of salt, a little bit of pepper noodles, and finally a little bit of monosodium glutamate powder that he personally prepared...

Finally, sprinkle some chopped Hucai, that is, cilantro, which is actually coriander.

But coriander Huaxia has been around for a long time, but because of its strange taste, few people eat it.

The meat skewers were grilled creakingly, sizzling and oily, and when they were almost cooked, Xiao Chen sprinkled chili noodles and cumin on them, and a strange pungent fragrance instantly filled the entire harem courtyard.

The first person who smelled it was Liu Ruyun, followed by Duanmu Nanqiao, and then Concubine Liang, Zhang Yaoer...

The few of them are considered to have face in the harem, and they are familiar with the queen, so they dare to come here. The other concubines can only watch from afar, drooling, wondering what the queen is doing?

Really hungry!
