Leng Yunmo: "Wow, it smells good. What's inside the lotus leaf? I can smell the fragrance of lotus leaves and meat. I've never seen this pastry before. It's so unique."
The prince was also greedy at this time and looked at the second emperor's brother: "How about we eat first and then discuss it."
"Um."
The three of them opened the glutinous rice chicken wrapped in lotus leaves, and the foodie Leng Yunmo quickly took a big bite.
"Hmm~ It's delicious, the texture is soft and glutinous, the chicken, mushrooms and dried shrimp are combined together, plus the fragrance of lotus leaves, it's amazing."
After taking a bite, the prince also praised: "The taste is very unique, the chicken is tender and juicy, and it complements the taste of the glutinous rice."
Leng Yichen quietly ate the rich glutinous rice chicken. He was in a bad mood, but now he feels much better after eating the food she made.
I don't know whether it was because discussing business today was too tiring, or the glutinous rice chicken was so delicious, so the three of them ate three of them each.
Looking at the remaining one, Leng Yunmo quickly took it over.
"You two can often eat the food cooked by the princess, please have mercy on me." Someone started again.
Prince: "Okay, but you will eat less of these pastries later."
Leng Yunmo pretended to be deaf: "Yichen, do you know what this pastry is called? I haven't seen it sold in Wangfu or Sufu before."
At this time, the guard Leng Yu who was standing aside said: "I just heard from the boy that this pastry is called egg yolk cake, and it comes in two flavors: bean paste and taro paste."
She was making new products again. Leng Yichen took one and took an elegant bite. The aroma of taro puree, coupled with the salty aroma of egg yolk, is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, delicious and not greasy.
Leng Yunmo looked sideways at the prince: "Princess, you are so awesome. The egg yolk here has a rustic texture and a salty aroma. I have never tasted it before. The skin is crispy and the filling is sweet but not greasy. I envy you so much. , you can often eat different snacks.”
Why is he not so lucky to meet a woman like the princess? Isn't he more handsome than the prince? With a lot of inner drama, he suddenly felt that the red bean paste and salted egg yolk cake in his mouth was no longer so fragrant.
The three of them, still unfinished, finally stared at the remaining box of egg yolk cakes.
Leng Yichen said in a low voice: "I think Grandma Huang will like this pastry."
Prince: "Well, she must like it."
This box is for the Queen Mother. Leng Yunmo will definitely not dare to snatch it from her.
At this time, Lengfeng walked in and reported: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother and the Queen's personal maid came to deliver several boxes of rouge gouache to the Princess, saying that the pastries and glutinous rice chicken she made are very delicious."
Leng Yunmo was happy after hearing this and looked at the two of them: "I guess the Crown Princess also received some food from the Princess. I would like to take the remaining box of egg yolk cakes back to honor my grandmother."
Prince: "As long as you don't secretly eat alone in the name of being the wife of the Duke of Laozhen."
"Am I such a person? I gave the jar of lotus wine I finally got from the prince last time to my grandmother."
Thinking of lotus wine, he still feels pain in his body. For the sake of a bite to eat, he would deny his relatives.
After the three of them had eaten, they continued to discuss how to solve the sweet potato surplus in Liangzhou. Until the evening, no good solution was discussed.
Prince: "Let's continue discussing with Da Sinong after going to court tomorrow. We need to think of a countermeasure for this matter as soon as possible."
"Um."
Su Lele ate glutinous rice chicken and egg yolk cakes in the afternoon. She was not hungry yet, but thinking that she would be hungry later, she ordered her servants to cook a pot of white porridge, steam it with twenty salted duck eggs, and ordered a big meal Make some meat buns and vegetable buns over there.
Half an hour later, Leng Yichen, who rushed back from the palace, stepped into the Yanyu Pavilion Villa.
"My lord, you are back."
"Well, my grandmother and queen both praised the delicious egg yolk cakes and glutinous rice chicken you made, and rewarded you with several boxes of rouge gouache."
"Next time, tell them not to reward them anymore, just a little food. What do you think, do you think the egg yolk cake is delicious?" Su Lele looked like she was begging for praise.
"It's very good. The salted egg yolk inside has a particularly unique taste. Is it made from duck eggs?"
"Your Majesty is so smart. It is marinated with duck eggs. I have people cook white porridge, salted duck eggs, and steamed buns. I guess you are not too hungry now. Let's just have some porridge with salted duck eggs later."
"good."
"Also, I have written down in detail the methods and processes for brewing flower wine, fruit wine, and sorghum wine."
After Su Lele finished speaking, she gave him all the prescriptions.
It turns out that there are so many flowers and fruits that can be used to make wine. Leng Yichen was a little surprised and looked at the brewing recipes of various wines for a while before passing them to the guard beside him.
"You put this brewing recipe in the study first, and then go to have dinner. There is no need to come here to serve."
Su Lele: "Leng Feng, each of you will take a salted duck egg and try it with your rice or porridge."
"Thank you, Princess, for the reward."
It was very satisfying to eat the salted duck eggs with a dense sandy aroma and oily salty aroma while taking a big mouthful of white porridge in the cold wind. I don't know how the egg yolk cake tastes. He also wants to try it. It seems that he needs to flatter the princess more.
After dinner, Su Lele went back to his room to take a shower, while the prince continued to go back to the study to handle official business.
She has recovered from her illness and can no longer use that trick to keep the prince in Yanyu Pavilion. In the past few days, she could feel that the prince actually had a crush on her, and she wanted to be brave again.
After bathing, she went straight to the Yijing Pavilion study.
Su Lele stepped into the study and stared at him with her bright eyes: "Your Majesty, I have something to ask you."
Leng Yichen was a little surprised that she came to the study at this time and looked back at her: "What's the matter?"
Su Lele, who was extremely nervous, took a deep breath and exhaled: "Your Majesty, I want to have a try with you."
After a moment, seeing that he didn't respond, he continued: "I'm serious, we try to get along as a real couple. If we don't get along, we will separate immediately when the two-year contract expires."
Looking at her bright eyes, almond eyes and red lips, her generous and brave look, his heart trembled a few times:
"Okay, let's try."
He agreed, and Su Lele was very happy.
Then she quickly ran to him with a smile on her face, opened her arms and hugged him tightly, and pressed her cheek against his warm and thick chest.
The two quietly enjoyed the warmth of this moment.
After a while, Su Lele left his chest, smoothed his wrinkled brows with her left hand, and said softly:
"Do you have something on your mind? I see that you have been frowning since you came back. You can talk about it and discuss it. Of course, if it is a confidential matter, forget it."
She caught all the subtle changes in his expression.
He touched her head gently, his voice was low and magnetic:
"The Liangzhou area has a bumper harvest of sweet potatoes this year, but farmers can't get a good price and it's difficult to sell them. At present, no one has come up with a good countermeasure, and my father is also very troubled by this matter."
"The sweet potatoes grown by farmers are usually sold for how much silver."
"In the past, good quality products could be sold for two cents per catty, but this year they can only be sold for one cent, and poor quality products cannot be sold."
Is it so worthless? In modern times, good-quality sweet potatoes sell for a lot of money.
Su Lele looked at him with a smile: "Your Majesty, I have a way to make the sweet potatoes grown by farmers sell out. Are you willing to listen?"
