The eunuch agreed and walked away backwards.
Sitting on the brocade couch, looking in the direction of the East Palace, the Queen smiled and ignored it.
Having been in a high position for a long time, she is used to seeing clouds rise and fall, and she deeply understands the importance of intelligence.
She didn't dare to take action against the secret guards in the hands of the saint, or even show that she knew about their existence. However, she had never been worried by the existence of secret guards. It can be said that the Secret Guard was established to monitor the world. The coverage is too wide, but it is not so scary.
However, her intelligence network is different. Over the years, under her intentional control, her intelligence network has been laid out throughout the palace, leaving only the East Palace a pure land. I originally thought that after I came to power, I would be able to spread this intelligence network. Although it could not be spread all over the world's important capitals like secret guards, it would be enough to cover Chang'an.
It is not impossible for me to learn from the methods used by the saints to deal with Changsun Wuji, Chu Suiliang and others.
Although this child Li Xian is very different from when he was a child, after all...
A little too good!
Sighing, before she could look at the hourglass, the female official on the side reminded: "The Queen, the time has come. The two palace ladies who used this dish are not seriously injured."
"knew."
After agreeing, the Queen picked up the cold noodle bowl herself.
Just one bite made her enjoy it very much. It’s not that it tastes good, it’s mainly that it’s cool and refreshing, and that it has a sour and sweet feeling, which is really appetizing. No wonder even foodies like Li Xian like this noodle. Pick up a piece of spicy cabbage and put it in your mouth. The sweet and sour cabbage with a bit of spiciness turns out to be so delicious.
He nodded with satisfaction and pointed to the lunch box. The female officer on the side took notice and stepped forward to bring the small box containing spicy cabbage to the Queen...
A bowl of noodles got into my stomach for some reason.
Resisting not to take a sip of the soup, the Queen said with satisfaction: "It's really good. Send someone to the East Palace kitchen to ask for the recipe. When the weather is hot in the future, I will just make this pasta. Especially this cabbage, I like it very much. Order the cook to make more."
The female officer Chunyan knelt down and said, "I obey your orders, my humble servant. Do you have any other orders?"
The Queen thought for a while and then said: "When you go to the East Palace, by the way, give some health supplements to Crown Princess Fang."
The female officer agreed again and then left. After following the Queen for many years, she knew very well that this reward was not for the Fang family, but for the prince.
The Queen of Heaven enjoyed cold noodles for lunch, and in the East Palace, Li Xian and Li Xian ate the same.
Cold noodles are fine if you don't touch them. After you touch them, you'll have to eat them for a long time before you feel a little tired of them.
However, the meal for the two of them was not only cold noodles, but also a plate of cold skin.
Perhaps he had never been exposed to this kind of down-to-earth food before, but Li Xian had a huge appetite and had to eat two full plates before giving up.
"Sixth Brother, every time my younger brother asks for delicious food from the cook, this guy will try his best to make a large table of delicacies. However, the weather is hot in summer, and people's moods are also irritable, not to mention that there are If you don’t have an appetite, you just have an appetite. The more you eat these, the more uncomfortable you’ll feel?”
Li Xian, who was relieved of his worries, also ate a lot. When he heard what Li Xian said, he sighed: "I have been in a high position for a long time. All I think about is how to be different from others. For the same dish, others use a spoonful of oil." , he couldn’t wait to use two spoons. In fact, folk snacks may not be able to reach the level of elegance. "
"There is also pork meat, which is said to be cheap meat. It is something that only untouchables can eat. Pang Pang, brother, I am going to build a breeding farm outside the city. When will the dolphins in it be released? Brother, I will treat you to a meal of pork meat. It definitely changes your perception of it.”
Li Xian scratched his head: "Pork meat is a cheap meat. My brother really doesn't know much about it. However, I heard some servants say that this stuff is very fishy. Are you sure you can eat it?"
Seeing Li Xian's expression like "You actually want to eat shit", Li Xian didn't know what to say.
Nowadays, there are only a few ordinary people who raise pigs. They raise pigs so that they can eat anything and still grow. However, in order for pigs to naturally give birth to the next generation, castration is generally not performed. The pork from pigs that have not been castrated will naturally have a strange smell. Although the taste will be different from that of later generations due to the breed, the difference is not to the extent that it is disgusting to eat.
Out of curiosity, he risked being impeached and ordered the cook to go outside and buy a piece of pork.
No need to make it, just by smelling it Li Xian knew that there was no way he could stand it.
Although the technology of castrating domestic pigs appeared as early as the Shang and Zhou dynasties, it was not until the Han Dynasty that people learned to raise pigs in captivity. Only after the Tang Dynasty did some farmers specialize in raising pigs appear. Because of this, it was not until the end of the Tang Dynasty that farmers combined castration technology with breeding. In this way, during the Song Dynasty, Dongpo meat appeared in people's sight.
The Central Plains has been a farming civilization since ancient times. Although animal husbandry exists, it is not developed. If you want to eat meat, you can only raise pigs. Cows, horses and donkeys are laborers, and generally no one is willing to eat them. Even if the royal family wanted to eat beef, they would still have to take advantage of the legal loopholes and eat calves. As for adult cattle, it is illegal to kill them casually.
We have to find a way to develop the breeding industry. Li Xian knows that in this era, he always needs to give some inspiration to the people here in advance. This is not the thought of a savior, but seeing the same kind of person running slowly, I can't help but encourage him to run faster.
After eating, it was time for lunch break.
Glancing at Li Xian who was already sleepy, Li Xian said: "You should go to bed first. My brother will be taught by important officials in the afternoon. I don't have time to study with you, so you can read in the study with Yao Yuanchong."
"Okay, Brother Six, shouldn't we make something new for dinner?"
"That's natural. My brother will give instructions to the kitchen."
After hearing these words, Li Xian's sleepiness disappeared for a while, and then he happily returned to his Yichun Palace.
Looking at Li Xian's back, Li Xian smiled and was about to take a rest.
Although this guy Li Xian gives the impression that he is lazy and greedy, what is surprising is that this guy went to the martial arts field to practice martial arts without anyone supervising him today.
Although his goal is probably to have a big meal at noon and evening, it is already very good to be able to do this.
Just when he got up to go back to the bedroom, he saw Li Yun walking over with a strange look on his face, and waved his hand to clear away the eunuchs around him.
Seeing his expression, Li Xian knew that something was going on...
