Throughout the ages, among literary giants, no one calls himself a "taotie" more than Su Shi.
This guy is not only a foodie, but also talented. He often improvises some delicacies into poems and spreads them. There are many famous dishes directly related to him, and there are even more dishes named after him, such as "Dongpo Pork Pork" , "Dongpo Tofu", "Dongpo Pork"...
When thinking of Su Shi, the interesting poems about food jumped out of his memory, and Fang Jun suddenly felt "spiritual"!
He looked at His Majesty Li Er with confidence in his heart: Do you think our food is not good? Is it not worthy of your status as a member of the Li family’s royal family? Well, let me show you that with this poem, even the fried pork with bamboo shoots is still full of fun and instantly worth a hundred times!
Even when His Majesty Li Er was shocked by his idea of conferring an official title to "Orange", he had already given up and planned to give up, but he gave up!
Aren't you looking for trouble?
Come, come, let us show you our inventory!
With a smile on his black face, he pointed to the fried pork with bamboo shoots like a hospitable host: "No bamboo makes you vulgar, no meat makes you thin, not vulgar but not thin, fried pork with bamboo shoots! Tender bamboo shoots after the rain, lean The combination of pork and pork is simply a match made in heaven. It not only has the effects of nourishing yin and cooling blood, harmonizing and moisturizing the intestines, clearing away heat and replenishing qi, relieving the diaphragm and refreshing the stomach, but it is also supremely delicious. Speaking of which, this dish is on your Majesty's side. I often eat..."
His Majesty Li Er was still thinking about the two sentences "No bamboo makes people vulgar, and no meat makes people thin". He felt that the artistic conception contained in them was really otherworldly, but he was overwhelmed by the last two sentences that were extremely vulgar, "Bamboo shoots are not vulgar but not thin." "Fried Pork" was completely ruined, and I felt depressed and regretful.
Hearing what Fang Jun said next, he was suddenly stunned: "When did I reward you with fried meat with bamboo shoots?"
It was only when he saw Fang Jun looking melancholy and aggrieved, and the Crown Prince Li Chengqian and the two princesses Faang Ling and Changle holding back their smiles, that His Majesty Li Er suddenly understood. Not only was he not angry at Fang Jun's teasing words, but when he thought about it carefully, he found it very interesting. Not only did he laugh and said: "You are such a stick, do you ever complain about being wronged? Haha, it's rare, it's rare!"
In his heart, he was impressed by Fang Jun's quick thinking. Knowing that Fang Jun could casually recite a few poems for every dish, he pointed at a plate of golden pastries and said, "How about this?"
This pastry is a ring cake, a very common snack. Use honey, pepper and other raw materials to boil water with an appropriate amount of eggs and clear oil to knead the dough, then repeatedly knead it into thick strips, twist it into dough, and knead or stretch it into round strips with well-proportioned thickness and orderly coils. Put the rings into the oil pan and fry until brown.
The strands are thin and even, crispy, golden and shiny, light and beautiful.
Fang Jun laughed, this is easier...
"When rubbed with delicate hands, the color of jade becomes uniform, and when green oil is fried, it becomes tender and deep. When you sleep in the spring, you will know the severity of your sleep. The gold wrapped around the arms of a beautiful woman will be flattened." This was what Su Shi felt when he ate a ring cake made by an old woman. Poems are given as gifts. Four lines and twenty-eight characters outline the thin, fresh and crispy characteristics of the ring cake, as well as the image of a beautiful woman’s ring. It’s a masterpiece made by nature!
"Wonderful, wonderful!" Prince Li Chengqian put his hands on his hands and laughed, "Father, I know that Erlang's talent is truly unparalleled in the Tang Dynasty and unparalleled in the world. I'm afraid you won't be able to stop him."
Not to mention Princess Fangling's bright eyes and nymphomaniac look, even Princess Changle stared at Fang Jun's face with great interest this time, marveling in her heart. This line of poetry is of great literary talent as it is picked at one's fingertips, especially in light of the season and the occasion. It is even more breathtaking when paired with the table full of delicacies. I didn't realize it when I just ate, but after listening to these poems and looking at the dishes, I suddenly felt like I had swallowed up a lot of talent!
This guy used to claim that he was "seven and a half times more talented", and he was somewhat disdainful of things. Even though the poems he wrote are all masterpieces that have been sung for eternity, even though his talent is no less than that of Cao Zijian, but he is so shameless, don't you know how to blush?
But now Princess Changle is convinced...
This guy is indeed a gifted poet, and it is no exaggeration to say that he is the best among contemporary poets!
His Majesty Li Er also smiled, this guy really has the ability to be arrogant!
The anger in His Majesty's heart was gone, and he was relieved and happy to be helped by a good time. He lifted up his robe, sat on the floor beside the table, and casually waved to a few people: "Why, don't you want to drink with me?" , or do you hate me as a bad guest?"
Fang Jun said quickly: "How dare I, Wei Chen? Being able to sit with His Majesty at the same table is a blessing that Wei Chen has cultivated in his previous life. This is a holy grace from ancient times to the present. No famous official from ancient times has such an honor. Wei Chen is sincerely frightened. , I am grateful to heaven and earth, and my admiration for Your Majesty is like the water of the Yellow River..."
The prince was dumbfounded, Princess Fangling was stunned, and Princess Changle put her hand on her forehead.
He is indeed a sycophant. How could he say such flattering words so naturally?
So shameless...
Even His Majesty Li Er had a dark look on his face. Not only did he not feel any relief from being photographed, but he was very embarrassed by Fang Junchi Guoguo's choice of words, so he angrily shouted: "Shut up! Speak seriously!"
"Uh... Weichen means, please wait a moment, Your Majesty, Weichen will instruct his servants to arrange a banquet again..."
When the emperor comes to your house for dinner, how can you give him scraps?
His Majesty Li Er waved his hand: "I came here uninvited. There is no need to rearrange it. This table is fine."
Several people had no choice but to obey the holy will and sit at the table obediently.
Originally, the dishes had just been served, and a few people were only concentrating on talking before taking their chopsticks. Besides, the emperor didn't care, so they had no choice but to obey. Fortunately, this was the Tang Dynasty, and the etiquette between monarchs and ministers was not as strict as it would be in the future. It was normal for His Majesty Li Er to bring several juniors to the table.
If after the Song Dynasty, Fang Jun and others would have to kneel aside...
The conversation during the dinner was very pleasant.
His Majesty Li Er naturally knew that the initiator of this gathering was probably Princess Fangling who was eager to join the renovation of Dongshi, and he also agreed with this.
"Since Fang Jun has agreed that you can undertake the construction of the Kunming Pool Temporary Market and the East Market, you must make a good show. Don't let others say that our royal family only makes money, ruins the royal dignity, and damages Li His reputation."
His Majesty Li Er warned like this.
Making money is a trivial matter, and it should be taken for granted. Where can I put the money without having a share in the royal family? But if you make money, you can't look too ugly. At the very least, the royal family's face must be taken into consideration, and it cannot be based on the reality of the people.
Princess Fangling was overjoyed and said quickly: "I won't let the emperor down."
His Majesty Li Er nodded and wanted to say a few more words, but thinking of what happened to Princess Fangling, he stopped talking.
Regarding Yang Yu's incident, His Majesty Li Er was angry that Princess Fangling had lost the royal family's face. However, thinking about the fact that the late emperor married the beautiful Princess Fangling to the widowed Dou Fengjie. Later, Dou Fengjie even liked the servants in the palace and ignored Princess Fangling. On the side, the spring-flower-like age is alone in the empty boudoir, unable to sleep, and the anger in my heart gradually calms down.
It is too much to settle with Yang Yu, but so what?
After all, she is my sister, so how can I not feel sorry for her at all...
"Do it well. If Fang Jun dares to plot against you, just tell me and I will reward him with fried meat with bamboo shoots!"
His Majesty Li Er said that for a woman, if she accumulates some money and family assets, she will be more confident when she gets married in the future.
Princess Fangling smiled brightly: "Thank you, brother!" Then she glanced at Fang Jun and covered her lips with a smile: "Did Fang Fuyin hear that? Humph, if you dare to embarrass me again in the future, I will The palace will file a lawsuit against you in front of His Majesty!"
Fang Jun had a bitter look on his face: "Your Majesty, I am on your side... Of course I will obey your words. But it is also difficult for me. Yesterday it was His Highness the King of Wu, and today it is His Highness Fangling. If Tomorrow it will be His Highness Changle again... It’s not easy to be a humble minister!"
Princess Changle, who was pouring wine for His Majesty Li Er, suddenly turned cold and glared at Fang Jun: "Don't involve others like this! Besides, you took the initiative to come to King Wu, right? Hum, At this time, you actually hit him with a rake, which is despicable!"
Fang Jun was speechless.
Li Chengqian smiled and said: "Li Zhi has wronged Erlang. He is thinking about you. If he puts these words here today, tomorrow he can legitimately seek benefits for you in the project. But you don't If you know the heart of a good person... you should pour a glass of wine and apologize!"
Princess Changle was stunned and looked at Fang Jun subconsciously.
Fang Jun shrugged, with a helpless expression like "You don't even want to give me money."
His Majesty Li Er's face immediately darkened.
The look on the two people's faces, in his eyes, which had long been prejudiced, was clearly a "blinking look"...
Fang Jun, you little bastard, how dare you seduce my daughter in front of me?
His heart should be punished!
