Yipin Tianxia

As soon as the emperor's holy will came out in the past few days, Lu Ying's sky completely collapsed.

She locked herself in the house and dared not go out at all.But even so, the family's cynicism still poured in from all directions, piercing her heart one by one.

Only my mother, Lu Wenshi didn't care to tell her, "It's fine if you don't enter the palace, find someone to marry earlier, and live a peaceful and stable life."

too naive!Lu Ying thought, with what she is like now, what kind of good family can she marry?I'm afraid that if you are a concubine, you have to be picked and picked.Of course, if she completely abandons the capital and goes to other places far away, she may still have a chance of survival, but how can she be willing to do so?

In her life, although she was young, since she was sensible, she had entered the palace to take charge of the imperial dining room and worked hard to become the best cook in the world.

The inheritance of the Lu family taught her that only in the imperial dining room can she get in touch with the top ingredients and cook the most delicious food.And the more bloody experience taught her that only by climbing higher can she get in touch with the most powerful people and become a respected cook.

Right now, if she leaves the capital, at most she will marry a restaurant owner, and then work with him to expand the business.But so what?It's just a richer cook, even if he meets a high-end sesame official, he still has to bow his head and bow his knees.

Lu Ying don't do this.

What she has to do is to stand above the crowd and win the favor. Whether it's cooking skills or Lu Ying, she has a certain amount of weight in the court.She wants to be looked up to, not a restaurant owner who comes and goes all day long for a few taels of money.

So at this moment she knelt down and knocked her head down heavily.

Although the floor is not cold.The carpet was also very soft, but the feeling of humbleness and humiliation penetrated deeply into her heart like small burrs on the carpet.

But at this moment, she also silently told herself that she will find all of this in the future, and she has to be patient.Even if it wasn't from Nianfu, she would get compensation from others.

Nianfu is not a roundworm in her stomach, I don't know what her real thoughts are, but.She, who has always been proud and arrogant, was able to kneel in front of her and call her a slave. Nianfu was secretly happy, but also felt a little wary.

A person who is too strong is not terrible, what is terrible is a person who can use whatever means for the purpose.But she didn't need to know the sincerity in Lu Ying's heart, as long as she was forced to kneel and kowtow, it was enough to make her vent her anger.

"Miss Lu, don't blame me for not helping you. It's just how much money do you think you can spend to appease the emperor?"

Lu Ying paused, and her face changed abruptly. Could it be that the humiliation she suffered today was in vain?

"What does the princess mean?"

"I think with the emperor's wisdom, even if you are punished, it is not for you to use money to redeem your sins. It is to teach you a lesson. Miss Lu, since you came in, have you ever admitted your fault for what you did? Roasting goose palms and killing deer to extract embryos may produce the ultimate delicacy, but don’t you think this is too cruel? Although they are livestock, they are also living beings. It’s because you are a girl that they are tortured like this. How did you manage to do it?"

Lu Ying was speechless and blushed.It was so hot that even Yu Sansheng couldn't sit still, he got up and knelt down and said, "It's me who has no way to teach disciples!"

Nianfu personally came out to help Yu Sansheng up, and sighed, "I know Master Yu is a kind-hearted person. You can't teach this kind of food no matter what, and you don't know how to teach it at all."

"It's all the servant's fault. It's the servant who wanted to show off, so she was confused and did such a thing." Being forced to say such words, Lu Ying was so embarrassed that she wanted to die!

In this case, even when Yu Sansheng closed the door, he didn't tell her.Although she realized it in her heart, she pretended to ignore it when no one said it.Anyway, she has already been punished, shouldn't her crimes be offset?

But now Nianfu mercilessly exposes her, making Lu Ying feel as if she was forcibly stripped naked and pinned in front of everyone.Although chanting Fu didn't use a vicious and dirty word, it was more severe than all the curse words she heard. It was like a whip that was bloody on her heart, beating her to pieces.It was ashamed to stay any longer, wishing to leave immediately.

Looking at the expression on her face, Nianfu felt that she had finally been taught a lesson.So the topic changed, "However, it would be a pity to say that Miss Lu's cooking skills are buried here."

As if she had come out of a desperate situation, Lu Ying had some hope again, and she only listened to the blessing and said, "But if Miss Lu wants to get the emperor's forgiveness, she must show some sincerity so that I can speak for you. With that money, do you think you can impress His Majesty?"

sincerity?What sincerity?

Lu Ying was at a loss, but Yu Sansheng's eyes lit up, "That's right! Now the emperor is worried about the lack of food, how about Ah Ying, you go back and collect more old mung beans and make more fans. This is the solution to the emperor's big problem." problem."

Be a fan?Lu Ying was still a little uncertain, but Nianfu nodded and praised, "Master Yu's method is very good, even if Miss Lu can't donate ten thousand taels of gold, she can donate ten thousand catties of vermicelli made by herself at once. , Thinking about it, it can calm the emperor's anger."

Be careful, she doesn't guarantee anything.

But Lu Ying thought that if she became a fan, she would be able to say good things to her, so she gritted her teeth and agreed, "I will go back and do it now."

"Wait." Nianfu ordered people to hold out all the generous gifts she sent, and smiled slightly, "Please take these things back, Miss Lu. If you really want to, why don't you replace them all with mung beans as fans? joy."

Lu Ying was a little ashamed, Nianfu was wearing all the royal clothes in the palace, how could she be interested in such an idea from her family?With a low eyebrow and narrow eyes, he put away the things, and planned to go back and become a fan before sending them to Nianfu.

With hope in her heart, she was motivated to work. Anyway, Lu Ying still had some money, so she quickly collected a few thousand catties of old mung beans from the market and came back to become a fan.

This matter is not difficult, but Lu Ying can't.When the imperial dining room studied this matter before, she thought it was low-tech.I'm not interested, but if I want to learn now, I have to go to the fan workshop specially set up by Yushanfang.

In such a cold weather, making vermicelli is not an easy job. It has to be washed and ground repeatedly in cold water. Therefore, after initially determining the method of vermicelli, Yu Sansheng handed it over to the young chefs to hone their will and patience. up.

Lu Ying used to be considered the best among them, and had always received special treatment. How could she be willing to do these things?But now she has become a street rat, if not for Yu Sansheng's sake.There is no chance to learn at all.

At that moment, someone who had been angered by her teased, "Hey, isn't this Miss Lu? Why didn't you work in front of the queen mother and princess, but came here instead? You didn't even bring your knives, what could you do?"

Lu Ying humiliated and said in a low voice, "Brother, you're joking. I'm just here to learn how to be a fan, so why do you bring those?"

"Hey, it's really rare. I heard you call senior brother. Since you have said so, the senior brother can't embarrass you. Go and wash those mung beans. Remember not to mix them with sand."

Ask her to do rough work like washing sand?Lu Ying waited for a long time, but no one spoke for her.In the end, I still went, and my hands with thin skin and tender flesh shrank when they touched the cold water.

Someone joked, "If you can't do it, don't force it."

Lu Ying gritted her teeth, and stretched her hands in again. Within half an hour, her hands were numb from the cold, and she was completely unconscious.Even the clothes got wet a lot.She was shivering from the cold, but she wanted to learn how to be a fan.You have to be patient.

Lu Ying didn't know how she endured hardships and recited blessings in the imperial dining room, and she was not interested in responding. She was busy researching cakes for the old lady Ouyang's birthday recently.

Although the cake was delicious, Ouyang Kang told her that grandma didn't like eggs very much, she probably had some allergies, and if she ate too much, she would get diarrhea easily.Except for the fresh orange steamed eggs that Nianfu made in the past, which are small and exquisite, and they are willing to eat a bite or two, they basically don't touch the others.

If Nianfu bakes a pure egg cake, no matter how beautiful it is, the old lady probably won't be able to enjoy it, but what kind of birthday cake can she make?

Go to ask Zhu Silin for advice, and give her a word, "Think for yourself. When I say it, you will be framed. Only by thinking for yourself can you make progress."

Not even a hint, too stingy.Turning around to look for someone again, "Aunt Zhao, you are very knowledgeable, can you help me think about how to make special pastries?"

Hearing that Nianfu asked this during the break time of learning the rules, Zhao Shanggong smiled, "Even if the servant has seen some world, it was given by the master. How can we talk about being knowledgeable? The princess should ask others. .But if it’s a birthday celebration, birthday peaches are the most respectable. Someone used to make eight-treasure stuffing for the Empress Dowager..."

Zhao Shanggong choked up when he said this, the one who made the eight-treasure birthday peach was Lu Ying, it was too unlucky to mention it now, so he quickly said, "How about making birthday noodles?"

Nianfu shook his head, the old lady has been used to eating rice all her life, and she doesn't like pasta, even if the birthday noodles are made well, they are still superficial, and the old lady won't like them.

"Cousin, what are you worrying about?" The curtain moved, and it was Kang Jierong who came.Always smiling so softly and amiably, people can not refuse.

Mu Shaoqin deliberately arranged their family far away, just not wanting them to walk around more, but this Kang Jierong is not afraid of hard work. Since getting acquainted with Nianfu, he will walk to Mu Shaoqin and his wife every day for a stick of incense Hello, talk to Nianfu.

Originally, the polite chanting asked her if she wanted a small sedan chair, but Kang Jierong declined, saying that walking like this every day would allow her to exercise and keep fit.Knowing that she didn't want old aunt Kang and his parents to take advantage of this, Nianfu's impression of her was three points better.He only thought that bad bamboos produced good bamboo shoots, but he didn't expect that the ineffective elders of the Kang family would raise such good brothers and sisters as Kang Shoujing and Kang Jierong.

So at the moment she came, she didn't hide it, "It's nothing, but I'm talking about some special rice cakes."

Kang Jierong greeted Zhao Shanggong again, then pursed her lips and smiled, "It's fine if you talk about other food, I have eaten this rice cake in the countryside before. I don't know how they make it, but there is Nine layers, red, yellow, blue and green, can be cut and eaten together, or can be eaten layer by layer, very beautiful."

Is it?I am interested in chanting blessings, what is that thing?

(Watching the tip of my tongue in the last episode, I was drooling at the beautiful nine-layer cake, but then I asked Du Niang, saying that besides being good-looking, this kind of cake actually tastes similar to hair cake, so I was immediately disillusioned. Then Guizi thought, How about combining it with the cake method? Waiting for my innovation~~ Today is just a chapter, because the day before yesterday was too late, and yesterday was too late, so I only wrote 2 updates, let me save one more for vacation, tomorrow Strive for more code points to add updates.)
