Xiao Nianzhi also felt Xiao Zhou's pleasure, but he didn't think much about it and just assumed that the other person had read some good book.
While Xiao Nianzhi was busy at home, Xiao Siye, Yu Jijiu and Your Majesty went directly to the Ministry of Industry.
Today the officials are off duty, but with a word from His Majesty, they will all be put on duty.
As evening approached, His Majesty called people directly into the palace, and then went to the outfield of the Ministry of Works.
All the officials from the Ministry of Industry, ranging from the minister to the unofficial Dianshi, deputy envoys and others, were all present!
All the officials were a little confused and didn't know what happened.
Besides, it's almost night, why is it so urgent?
If it is a military supply problem in the northwest, then we should go to the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of War!
When the officials from the Ministry of Industry came to the palace, His Majesty shared the drawings with the minister, the minister, and other high-ranking officials.
The Ministry of Industry also has its own division of labor, such as managing construction and logistics. It is not necessarily possible to understand the meaning of these drawings.
But for water conservancy and manufacturing, most people understand it.
After reading it, my eyes were red.
This, this, this...
"Your Majesty, I am willing to study all night long!"
"Same, Omi!"
"The same is true for me!"
The officials who saw it clearly were excited, passionate, and the superiors wanted to transform into craftsmen right now and start working directly.
Although many of them actually only know theory.
But it doesn't matter, they have someone on their side!
The emperor called the people over in a hurry, and also wanted them to work overtime.
Now that we have entered the autumn harvest, we must not waste time on farm tools and the like.
Once it is verified that it is feasible here in Beijing, it can be promoted in various places during the new year.
People's livelihood is an extremely important matter, and the emperor still attaches great importance to it.
So, rest?
I haven’t even taken a break, how dare you take a break?
Everyone got up to work.
In the meantime, Xiao Siye and Yu Jijiu, who understood the drawings and even studied them faster than Xiao Nianzhi, naturally couldn't leave.
The two of them specially sent a message to the mansion, asking them to eat first, and there was no need to wait for them at the family dinner.
The Xiao brothers were still a little disappointed.
The eldest brother is away studying, and his father is busy with official duties.
Fortunately, there are still sisters here, otherwise the two brothers, looking at each other, would feel pitiful just listening to it.
Although there are only three siblings, the family dinner still needs to be carefully arranged.
I re-cooked the braised pork in a pot, and the strong aroma sent a heavy blow to the nearby neighbors.
The spicy stir-fried diced chicken is cooked to the extreme with aroma and spiciness. The overlapping and alluring aroma can make people cry.
Zhang Hanshan could not help but hunch his nose and drool while biting the cloth while being beaten.
Woohoo!
It smells so good and it hurts so much!
When his father came back, he knew that he shamelessly went to the next door to have a meal, and he even went to Zhuangzi's place to have a meal last night.
Then, his father directly asked the family to help him, and he was currently beating him!
His mother couldn't stand it and took her sister back to the room first. His eldest brother stood there with a cold face, accusing him of his misconduct.
He spoke every word very clearly, and then Father Zhang beat him even harder.
Zhang Hanshan:...!
You are really my brother!
A sumptuous dinner with meat, eggs and vegetables, moon cakes symbolizing reunion, and grapes and fruits symbolizing sweetness.
Xiao Nianzhi also made fruit tea, fried butterfly cakes and pomegranate cakes, and cooked digestion soup.
Xiao Qing couldn't control his saliva for a long time. Now that he could finally eat, he was already excited.
A table full of delicious food also diluted the little regret that father and brother were not reunited together.
As the second brother, Xiao Zhou must take the initiative to speak at this time: "I wish my brothers and sisters good health and everything goes well."
When Xiao Qing saw his second brother raising a toast, he hurriedly picked up the fruit tea cup and said, "I would like to share the bright moon with my second brother and sister. When the moon rises, we will see wealth, and when the moon falls, we will see happiness."
After the two people finished talking, the pressure instantly came to Xiao Nianzhi's side.
Xiao Nianzhi was okay, and he still had a few poems in his stomach, so he raised his glass generously: "I hope that my brothers and sisters will read more than ten thousand volumes and write with spirit."
My brothers and sisters don't need to be too polite and restrained.
After the blessings, everyone began to eat and drink.
At this time, the palace was also eating and drinking.
Although His Majesty is busy, the Queen Mother is still in charge.
Xiao Nianzhi brought the braised pork and moon cakes. Although Yan Xingxuan's flesh ached, he graciously arranged for them to be served after he came back. Naturally, he was hiding a bit of showing off.
Aunt Ning naturally reminded the Queen Mother in a low voice about this matter.
Therefore, during the family dinner, the Queen Mother deliberately praised a few words: "This braised pork tastes good, but it doesn't feel like the craftsmanship of the imperial kitchen."
Everyone:.
Those who are well-informed probably know what is going on.
They didn't believe that the Queen Mother didn't know, but when the old man said this, he probably had the intention of teasing Yan Xingxuan, so they could just cooperate.
The eldest princess couldn't speak, but he could let Fukaye say: "It really doesn't taste like it. Could it be that His Highness has not been in the palace for a long time and there is a new chef in the imperial kitchen?"
After Shen Ye finished speaking, the eldest princess raised her eyebrows and looked at Yan Xingxuan with a smile.
When the queen saw this situation, she also joked a few words.
Princess Kang, on the other hand, didn't say much and just laughed.
Everyone said that this might be the new imperial chef, but their eyes looked at Yan Xingxuan with a hint of ridicule.
Since Yan Xingxuan took out things openly, he was naturally not afraid of ridicule.
After receiving looks from all directions, he smiled and replied: "I brought this back from Xiao Mansion. It is the craftsmanship of Xiao Mansion's cook."
The craftsmanship of Xiao Mansion’s cook?
Just ask, do you believe it when you say this?
Everyone's teasing glances were still not returned, and their smiles even grew stronger.
Several young princesses and princes also looked over quietly.
Yan Xingxuan cleared his throat and continued: "But with the eldest daughter of Xiao Mansion personally guiding me, I guess the taste won't be too bad. After all, the eldest daughter is good at her craftsmanship. This matter is spread throughout the Imperial College."
When it comes to Xiao Nianzhi, Yan Xingxuan can't stop showing off.
So, mooncakes were soon mentioned again.
Whether it’s the traditional black sesame filling or the snow-skinned one, he praises them all!
Especially the snowskin mooncakes, which they had never even seen before.
If he hadn't wanted to show off, Yan Xingxuan would have shown off the snowskin mooncakes on the way!
But, he was in control!
Xiao Nian weaves a lot of clothes, but there are many people in the palace. After Aunt Ning thought about it, she cut each mooncake into small pieces, then put them on a plate with other mooncakes and put them together.
At this time, Yan Xingxuan mentioned it, and everyone realized that a certain piece of mooncake on their plates did look different.
Yan Nanrong and Ninth Prince Yan Feiquan were sitting together. He looked over and found that the color of the snow-skin mooncakes on the other side's plate was different from his.
His was pink, while the other's was bright white.
Because the color is light, it looks more crystal clear, sweet and attractive.
Although it was said to be a family banquet in the palace, all the elders were there, and Yan Nanrong did not dare to say much, so after reading it, he shut his mouth and thought to himself: Miss Xiao is so amazing!
Although the imperial chefs also mixed various colors, he felt that the one made by Xiao Nianzhi looked better.
