Chapter 711: The Cultivation of Customs
Zhen Qian felt that he was "played" by light smoke, but this feeling made people feel very comfortable, looking at the delicate face in front of him, gently hooking it with his fingers, the head of the mantis moth eyebrows, the double pupils cut water, the teeth are like rhinoceros, the ice muscles and jade bones, the beauty is more beautiful than the flowers, the jade face is bright and red, it is really a little cute.
"Xiaolian? Would you like to stay here? ”
"The islander...... no! Lang Jun, serving Lang Jun is a blessing for the concubine! "Xiaolian's ten fingers are pointed, soft as boneless, and there is a shyness like a small jasper between her cheeks and smiles.
"Huh! Did your sister Qingyan make people say that? ”
"It's not!" Xiaolian snuggled in Zhen Qian's arms like a bird, her fragrant shoulders trembled slightly, and her sandalwood mouth lightly inspired a pleasant voice like a silver bell: "The concubine body is a voluntary ......", saying a touch of red light, she arched in Zhen Qian's arms shyly.
"Hmm!"
Zhen Qian said and put on a bathrobe, stretched his waist comfortably, and smiled contentedly: "Then live here with peace of mind, in the future, Qingyan will not be lonely with you by your side!" ”
In this era, there is no love and love, they all get on the bus first and then buy tickets, and they are already very lucky to meet before marriage.
Zhen Qian could see from Xiaolian's eyes that he was already very satisfied with being able to serve him, and he didn't have to think about it to know that if he couldn't stay here, when her fate was still a pair of jade arms and a thousand pillows, a little red lips and ten thousand people, there was nothing he didn't want to do.
Besides, Xiaolian knew from Qingyan what kind of identity Zhen Qian was, such a person never dreamed of it.
Zhen Qian was also very surprised at the same time, Xiaolian was still a Qing official, she told Zhen Qian that she had not yet come out of the pavilion to comb up, and she was originally going to be sent to the pear orchard, so she was not cut off from fertility like Qingyan, but she didn't expect that Da Xixun, the old pervert, took advantage of the opportunity to envoy to the Silla Kingdom and the Wa Kingdom, and selected dozens of singers from the thousands of singers who were ready to be sent to the pear orchard, and took them with him to have fun.
This is also a blessing in disguise.
Liyuan is a royal institution for training musicians in the Tang Dynasty, "New Tang Dynasty Book Lile Zhi" contains: "Xuanzong not only knows the rhythm of music, but also loves the music of the law, and chooses to sit on the three hundred children of the department to teach in the pear garden." If there is a mistake, the emperor will feel it and be right, and he will be called the disciple of the emperor's pear garden. ”
Every three years, a group of singers will be sent to the pear orchard, and Li Longji will keep some after selection, and the rest will be sent back to the Jiaofang Division. If they can stay in the pear orchard, the fate of these singers is not bad, and they have the opportunity to be favored by Li Longji, but Li Longji is old, and this opportunity is becoming less and less, and most of them can only stay with the green lantern ancient Buddha in the pear orchard for a lifetime.
In this way, Xiaolian's fate couldn't be better, what is there to be unwilling.
"The concubine listens to Lang Jun's arrangement?"
"Humph! You little girl ......", Zhen Qian pinched Xiaolian's pretty nose and found that the women who came out of the teaching department were not simple, not only were they talented, but even their kung fu to please men was first-class, and they were definitely the best among women in this era, and it was no wonder that most of the emperors in the deep palace were addicted to gentleness.
"Can we still dance tonight?"
Xiaolian kneaded it in Zhen Qian's arms, and said with a red face: "The concubine is practicing soft skills in the teaching department, although the body is as soft as boneless, does it mean that she is weak, and it is the honor of the concubine to be able to dance for Lang Jun?" ”
Zhen Qian didn't expect that there were still people who specialized in performing jiu-jitsu in the Tang Dynasty, and he was lonely and unheard, but when he thought of Xiaolian just now, he inevitably felt a little pity in his heart, "Take a rest there, don't be too reluctant?" ”
The Tang people still retain the habit of the two-meal system, Zhen Qian is used to the three-meal system, but ordinary people think that such a diet is too wasteful, some poor people can only eat one meal a day, the three-meal system is mainly formed after the food is abundant, even so in the bottom society, it became popular after the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner can naturally only be held according to the time of the two-meal system.
However, there are also records of the four-meal system and the five-meal system in history, which were generally enjoyed by ancient emperors such as Qin Shi Huang and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.
The two-meal system is mainly adapted to the labor habits of the ancients of "making at sunrise and resting at sunset", and also because the food sources in this era are not abundant.
The Chinese New Year's Eve dinner can only be held in the parliament building, and only here can five or six hundred people dine at the same time, thinking about the wedding banquet scene in later generations, it is usually only two or three hundred people in the same hall, which is particularly crowded.
In ancient times, it was a society that attached great importance to etiquette and religion, and even if it was a meal at the same time, it was necessary to distinguish between the upper and lower levels, and it was absolutely impossible to make the scene look chaotic.
Chinese New Year's Eve dinner party began to prepare a month ago, delicacies, all kinds of melons and fruits, flying in the sky, running on the ground, swimming in the water, just to finalize the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner menu, He Guan and Wang Lun argued for three days, and finally Zhen Qian made a decision, each table is ten people standard, twelve hot dishes, six cold dishes, four dishes of ......various colors of dim sum, the tableware is all made of white porcelain produced in the Wufeng Islands, all the glass wine glasses are ......, even the chopsticks are produced by the Wufeng Islands themselves, absolutely no gold and silver utensils.
There are two or three hundred alternative dishes, and more than 20 dishes are selected from so many dishes, each of whom has his own standards, and finally Zhen Qianli overrides public opinion, and takes the dishes he likes to eat as the keynote, such as salt and pepper lamb chops, sweet and sour prawns, called Hua chicken, sliced duck, steamed sea bass, braised pork, roast venison, Buddha jumping over the wall, sea cucumber rice, assorted hot pot, crystal elbow, three fresh hen soup, mushroom abalone soup, crackers, jujube cakes, etc.
What Zhen Qian did not expect was that after this Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, the menu of the annual Chinese New Year's Eve dinner was rarely changed, and even a few years later, this recipe became the standard of the state banquet and circulated for thousands of years.
At the same time, in order to subtly influence the customs of the Wufeng Islands, Zhen Qian and Wang Lun did not make less efforts, first of all, most of the ingredients at the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner were found around the Wufeng Islands, the tableware used did not use gold and silver, only local freshly produced white porcelain, even the dining table and chairs were unique to the Wufeng Islands, and even the waiters who served had detailed rules on what clothes to wear.
All this quietly hints at the difference between the Goho Islands and other places, and cultivates their own unique living habits, which seem to be inadvertent, but in fact have important meanings.
The Chinese New Year's Eve dinner is equivalent to the vane of the customs of the Wufeng Islands, whether it is the simplified words used on the menu or the inconspicuous napkins placed on the table, every bit of it allows the participants to feel the characteristics of the Wufeng Islands, and even the guests who participate in the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner are also men and women in the same table and divided into men and women to sit on the left and women .......
Although some people were dissatisfied with such an arrangement, it was also unconditionally implemented under Zhen Qian's strong pressure.
