Chapter 202: Getting the first step
Pu Yangxuan took it, took out the dagger tied to his leg, and knocked it with the handle of the knife a little harder, the outer layer of the crust left, and a smell of meat mixed with the aroma of lotus leaves had escaped from the gap.
He didn't care about dirty hands, carefully removed the crust, unfolded the lotus leaf inside, and a chicken glowing with jujube red oil appeared in front of him, with the heat, the fragrance was even more intense.
"It's okay with this scent, right?" Xue Jinyi asked with concern.
"The food made by Ah Jin is so delicious, how can my nose not be able to adapt to it?" Pu Yangxuan said with a smile, sat directly on the grass next to him, used a dagger to simply cut a few knives on the chicken, and then tore off a chicken leg and handed it to Xue Jinyi.
Xue Jinyi was not polite, took a big bite hard, and chewed contentedly.
After seeing Pu Yangxuan also take a bite, she asked, "How does it taste?" ”
Pu Yangxuan swallowed the food and asked excitedly, "What spices are added here?" The taste is as charming as the aroma, with the fragrance of lotus leaves, the chicken is tender, and the meat of the chicken breast is not firewood at all. ”
Xue Jinyi said proudly: "Do you remember Uncle Zhang's grilled fish?" No spices are added, but the fish has no fishy smell and is very fragrant. I learned it from him, and I thought about it a little more, so that the fragrance of the lotus leaves would not be overshadowed by the spices. ”
"I see." Pu Yangxuan took another big bite, and if it wasn't for curiosity, he couldn't stop at all.
Xue Jinyi said: "I will write down the method, and you can take it to the chef of the wine store, right?" By the way, this is called flower chicken, and you can also stuff shrimp, bamboo shoots, fungus and other ingredients into the chicken belly, which will also have a unique flavor. ”
"Just listening to your description, I think it's delicious."
"I'll make it for you next time."
In the blink of an eye, the two of them were about to destroy a whole chicken, and they still felt unfinished.
Pu Yangxuan looked at the other soil balls and asked, "Are they all too?" ”
"That's right." Xue Jinyi fished out a dumpling, "I'm afraid you won't have enough to eat, so I made an extra one." ”
"One?" Pu Yangxuan raised his eyebrows, where is one enough to eat?
Xue Jinyi winked at him and smiled, beckoning Qinglan to come over, "You can bring these chickens called Huaji to everyone and share them, and tell me everyone's reactions when you go back." ”
Qinglan smelled the fragrance of the flower chicken early in the morning, and the greedy worms in her stomach were screaming loudly, but she didn't expect the princess to think of their share.
Glancing at King Chu who was eating hard, she pursed her lips and held back a smile.
The king of Chu has always been calm and noble, but in front of the princess, is this called the original form of the dew?
She was afraid that she would really laugh, so she hugged a few dirt balls and left quickly.
Although Pu Yangxuan was immersed in eating, he did not forget to hand the best chicken thigh meat to Xue Jinyi.
"I'm full." She waved her hand, "You can eat." ”
"Isn't that polite?"
"I'll be polite to you?" Xue Jinyi smiled evilly.
Pu Yangxuan said seriously: "Well, naturally you don't have to be polite to me." ”
He continued to eat chicken, and Xue Jinyi sat next to him, not feeling bored, tilting his head to look at him.
The two chickens were swept away, and only the clean chicken bones remained on the lotus leaves.
"Have you eaten enough?" Xue Jinyi asked, "If I don't think it's enough, I cooked mung bean and lily porridge in the small kitchen." ”
"That's enough." Pu Yangxuan seemed to hold her hand, but when she saw her greasy hand, she had to hang down helplessly, "I feel like I will be fed into a pig by Ah Jin sooner or later." ”
Xue Jinyi gently hammered his stomach with the back of her clean hand, "I will urge you to run and exercise more, and I will definitely not make you fat." ”
"And do you want to come with me?"
Xue Jinyi moved her arms, after careful recuperation during this time, her originally somewhat thin body grew some flesh, and after exercise and shaping, she was steadily moving towards a perfect figure.
"Okay." She readily agreed, and it was fun for people who loved each other to do anything together.
Pu Yangxuan laughed.
The two cleaned up the lotus leaves on the ground, washed their hands with pond water first, and then went back to the main courtyard together.
"By the way, let's get up early tomorrow and get to the city gate when the city gate is opened." Xue Jinyi said softly, looking around.
The palace of the king of Chu has been calm, but how many dark tides are still turbulent under the calm?
"We can think of inviting the master of Baiyun Temple to recite the scriptures, and those who are the ones who are in charge of this matter can also think of it, so we are afraid that they will also take advantage of the good day of the fifteenth day to come and take the lead."
"On my way back, I went to Baiyun Temple." Pu Yangxuan's face was relaxed, "Please ask Master Huijing." ”
Xue Jinyi thought that he had asked Master Huijing to do things in the lottery holder, and the relationship was not ordinary, so she nodded and smiled: "You are more thoughtful." But just in case, it's better to go out early. ”
"Hmm."
The night was calm, and Xue Jinyi left the capital when the city gate was just opened.
The journey to the foot of the mountain was very smooth, and the coachman found that there were officers and soldiers on the way, and he did not take it seriously.
There are often people from the government patrolling the perimeter of the capital to track down fugitives and ensure the safety of the Son of Heaven.
It wasn't until the carriage approached that an officer and soldier waved to him.
The coachman hurriedly tightened the reins and found that the officers and soldiers were dressed in the East Palace Ten Rates Mansion.
The prince here?
Pu Yangxuan's indifferent voice sounded in the car, "What's wrong?" ”
They went out today to pick out an inconspicuous carriage, and they did not hang a lantern or wooden sign to identify themselves.
The officers and soldiers said: "Today, the crown princess went to Baiyun Temple to offer incense and pray, and the others should go to Baiyun Temple after noon." ”
Xue Jinyi's heart tightened, it was Xue Fangyi who came out in person.
Also, it is impossible for the nobles in the palace to come to Baiyun Temple casually, and it is not the crown prince and the princess who can close the road and override the head of the king of Chu?
Under the pretext of safety, they cleared the road and guarded, and no one could get close to Baiyun Temple, let alone invite the master in the temple to return to the house.
"Xue Fangyi will definitely invite a high-ranking monk," Xue Jinyi frowned and said, "It's hard to say when I will be able to see Master Huijing and them again." Although the government has already made some arrangements, I am afraid that they will do something drastic to start this game. ”
She made a cutting gesture with her palms across her neck.
"If they commit suicide, we may not be able to prevent it."
Pu Yangxuan held her hand, put it on her lap, and was about to speak, when the shouts of the people of the East Palace came from outside.
"This road doesn't work, you go back!"
Puyang Xuan lifted the curtain slightly, and it turned out that there were some pilgrims who came to offer incense in the morning.
And their carriage was in the first place, and it never moved, so the officers and soldiers looked already impatient.
"Deaf, didn't you hear what I said? Who is in the car? ”
