If you like a light diet, you can eat vegetable mixed with mountain delicacies, Longjing bamboo fungus, thin whitebait noodles, rose wine fermented rice, pickled radish in honey juice, paired with white fungus and wolfberry porridge. It tastes even more light and delicious.

Cen Xijin also specially followed the method of spicy seafood braising in later generations, and asked Cai Xin to find ways to prepare spicy braised snails, spicy braised crayfish, spicy shrimp tails, fried clams with green onions, and spicy shrimp clams to go with wine.

This night, the guests and hosts of Jianxian Hall had a great time.

Especially the various kinds of spicy seafood stews, even those aunts and grandmothers who are usually the most disciplined can't help but ask for some to go with wine.

The most people drink Sanlejing because it leaves a fragrant aroma on the teeth and cheeks but is not easily intoxicating.

Mu Qiwen didn't dare to drink anymore. He drank a lot of wine with pepper water in the afternoon. Not only did his head hurt, but his stomach was also burning and uncomfortable. He could only take out a small bowl of thin whitebait noodles from the pot and sit there alone, eating the noodles pitifully.

Mu Qiwen was unhappy alone, but the second prince was happily drinking with his classmates and chatting enthusiastically about the anti-Japanese war on the southeast coast.

Princess Xianrong and Princess Xining have returned to their palaces accompanied by palace attendants. The fifth prince really wanted to spend more time with his brothers, but unfortunately he was forcibly taken away by the petty Princess Xining.

The sixth prince was too young. Seeing that he was yawning constantly, the eldest prince arranged for an accompanying nanny to take him back to Miaoyan Residence.

The eldest prince stayed, holding Jin Lingchun in his hands and looking at the bright moonlight for a while, lost in thought.

Without the girl and the baby, there were only a group of half-grown boys left at the second prince's birthday party. Cen Xijin pretended to be a natural person and blended in among them in a high-sounding way - after all, that was how she blended in when she was at Guozi School!

Qian Mao shook his head and sighed, and quickly fished out a thin slice of mutton from the mutton shabu-shabu. After dipping it in sesame sauce and putting it in his mouth, he licked his mouth with endless taste and chatted happily with his classmates. Get up: "Hey, hey, tell me, what does fighting feel like? Is it fun? I really want to go to the sea to have a good time!"

Sun Rusi chewed a round and oily braised lion's head and smiled coldly: "I can't tell that the Duke of Qing's family really has a family background."

Qian Mao was unconvinced and poked away the last cool braised lion's head on the plate with his chopsticks: "Hey, boy Sun, what do you know! Opening up the land and galloping across the river city, this has been my fucking dream since childhood! "Sun Rusi can look down on him, but he can't look down on the loyal people in the Duke of Qing's mansion!

"Hmm, the ancestors of Qingguo have produced famous generals for generations, and they have donated blood for generations. I'm just waiting for it to come to light!" Once there was any suspicion, the second prince immediately took the brunt of it and raised a glass to pray. This is what he did today. The greatest knowledge learned.

Today is his birthday, so of course he is the eldest, and his classmates in Guozixue naturally gave him enough respect. They all raised their glasses and prayed: "It will be clear to you!"

"In my opinion, those little dwarf Yamato people are not a problem at all. Among the Japanese pirates, there are many Flemish, Spanish and Helan people who are secretly supporting them. The most ridiculous thing is that most of the Japanese pirates are from our Dali calendar. The common people who cannot afford to eat will join them and become bandits. A year ago, Jiangsu and Zhejiang were severely hit by floods. The people were displaced, but they could not get a penny or a grain of food! It is precisely because there are so many corrupt officials who are devouring The money and food of the country and the people, those talents are willing to take great risks to go to the sea to beg for food from the Japanese, so I think the first priority of the court is to eliminate corruption!" Sun Rusi's eyes turned cold, and he poked the chopsticks on the lion's head. He was slapped hard on the case.

As soon as he opened his mouth, Cen Xijin immediately knew the nature of classmate Sun Rusi as an angry youth. In front of so many people, he dared to speak frankly about the secrets of the imperial court. Brother Sun was very different from the cunning Concubine Sun. It is not ruled out that he was drunk and was addicted to talking. After all, some people start to talk as soon as they are drunk.

The second prince has learned a lot of political nutrients from Cen Xijin over the years. He mused: "Brother Ru Si is right. The so-called Japanese pirates are actually pirate groups on the southeast coast. This Hill has no fixed abode. , they can go ashore to rob, and they can also make a living by fishing at sea. As soon as we take action, they will run back to the sea, and if we take action again, they will run back to the sea. In this way, I will waste a lot of time and money, but they will not suffer much. Huge losses. Fighting against Japanese pirates is actually a loss-making business that only treats the symptoms but not the root cause. But even if it costs people and money, we have to fight."

Although Mu Qiwen was born fat, it didn't stop him from being a young and hot-blooded man. When he heard this, he got angry, but in the end he held his stomach and shouted: "Oh, it's his mother's fault, you're a mother-in-law." Having said this is like saying nothing! Isn’t there any way to treat the symptoms and cure the root cause?"

"If I really had a way, would I still be here talking nonsense to you? Managing a big country is like cooking small delicacies, the hardest thing is to get it just right. Father, it's not easy for him either." The second prince lowered his head with a gloomy expression and scooped out A spoonful of milky, sugar-steamed cheese was put into your mouth.

"Oh, Your Highness is right. Think about it, we kids can only live with these things that the court ministers can't solve." The speaker was Li Tingyu, the son of Dr. Guanglu, who once laughed at Li Xiaosan'er, the second prince, is Xiao Xingren's master.

The second prince swallowed half a bowl of cool sugar-steamed cheese in one gulp, raised his head with a clear expression, and said something with unfinished meaning: "Do you know that sweet potatoes can actually save the country?"

Cen Xijin's eyelids twitched. What does this have to do with her?
