Chapter 263: It turned out to be a cook

Colliers also doesn't ride a horse anymore, one in one hand.

Zhang Zhong and others also followed into the city, and then they went everywhere, and the people in the capital had already arranged a good place, and the champion building in the west city and the proud residence in the east city were in the New Year this year, and the courtyard behind them was no longer in the courtyard.

"See? When I first entered the year, I saw him, when he came by boat, the pomp was not small, I never thought, after a few years, the power is more powerful, the champion upstairs is out, and the smug needs to be proud, and the new champion of that year is him. ”

Someone in the crowd recognized Zhang Zhong and hid aside to show off to others.

"I know, I know, the two most powerful restaurants in the capital, what is the ability to cook? Yes, it is called leading the trend, the big waves hit the willow embankment, only standing at the head of the tide, talking about two restaurants. ”

The other responded enviously.

Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan were led, walking all the way in front, surrounded by countless envious eyes, the two of them ignored it, they saw a lot of big scenes, and they didn't care about becoming the focus of attention again.

Walking forward, two people hurried over in front of him, both wearing official uniforms, one of his clothes was stained with a lot of mud and snow, looking very embarrassed, and the other was supporting him.

Zhang Xiaobao was stunned when he saw the two people, and then greeted with a smile, "Uncle Cheng, Uncle Zhang, are you two checking the removal of snow?" ”

"Xiaobao? Juanjuan? Oops, it's big again, it's growing taller, what's the test for snow? fell, accidentally fell, didn't catch up to greet Brother Yongcheng, forgive your sins. ”

The joint decision came to Cheng Lingxiang, the county commander of Sanshui County, and Zhang Mingsheng, the county magistrate, and the lord Bo Zhao Xiang had already arrived, and he greeted Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan happily as soon as he saw them.

Zhang Xiaobao also felt very kind, and replied with a big smile, "Uncle Cheng is not late, there is still the fragrance of earth on his body, my father is behind, I and Juan Juan will first enter the palace with Uncle Gao, and then toast Uncle Zhang and Uncle Cheng when they come back." ”

"General Gao." Only then did the two of them see Gao Lishi, and they only paid attention to Xiaobao and Juan Juan.

Gao Lishi waved his hand to stop the two from saluting, and praised: "Yes, the people who came out of Sanshui County are good, go ahead, you two should change positions this year." ”

After speaking, Gao Lishi grabbed Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan and continued to move forward, leaving Zhang and Cheng with a happy look, this is the promotion? The people of the Zhang and Wang families are really nobles.

It was not the first time for Zhang Xiaobao and the others to come to the capital, but the palace had never been in, and they didn't know what the palace was like at this time, so they followed expectantly.

As he walked, Colliers pulled the two of them to a nearby shop, walked through the shop, got into the car in the back, and then continued to move forward.

"Uncle Gao, did you quietly enter the palace and don't make a noise?" Wang Juan sat in the car, touching the curtain blocking the window and whispering.

Gao Lishi smiled, "Listening to Juanjuan's words, it is like a spy person, do not enter the palace, I am afraid that there are too many people on the road to greet him, trouble, go to the Hibiscus Garden, His Majesty is waiting there." ”

"Oh~! Don't go to the palace. Wang Juan was a little disappointed, and Zhang Xiaobao was also discouraged.

Seeing the reaction of the two little babies, Gao Lishi couldn't cry or laugh, others were very happy to see the emperor once, and at the same time nervous, the two babies were good, they were just excited to enter the palace to see, and ignored the people who really needed attention.

Stretching out his hand to touch the heads of the two people, Gao Lishi comforted: "It's easy to go to the palace, I will take you there if I want to go in the future, the emperor is not just anyone can see him, go to see the emperor first, don't be afraid, the emperor doesn't kill people easily." ”

"Okay, then let's go see it first, and I'm not afraid to kill, as long as I don't want to kill him, I'm tired of killing." Wang Juanxin said that it's okay to look at Xiao Li, he is always a big man.

"Yes, don't be afraid, Juan Juan is a general who can win more with less, Xiaobao, really want to go to the local government to be an official? Your Majesty said, I will arrange a position for you to be a county lord and a chief, and the county order is to find a proud and incapable person, be careful. ”

Gao Lishi suddenly reacted, the little girl sitting in front of him was not an ordinary person, and was confused by her cute appearance, this is also a killing god, it is said that the more ruthless the killing, the sweeter the smile, well, not afraid, indeed not afraid.

Zhang Xiaobao sat next to him, thinking about what Li Longji was looking for the two of them to do, it couldn't be just to meet, listening to Gao Lishi's questions and words, he sighed helplessly.

"Uncle Gao, how can the emperor do this? If you have to throw a person who can't do it to us, this is a knife to kill people, have you chosen a good county? ”

"What is borrowing a knife to kill people, it is to give you a chance to exercise, don't look at it as a county order, you don't have to be soft when you should clean it up, it's best to change him, so that you can do more practical things for the people in the future, choose well, there is no too poor county, a county less than three hundred miles away from Luoyang, praise, it is a middle county, and it is not a critical place, nor Gyeonggi, it's fun, if someone uses power to press people to find trouble, write to uncle."

Colliers said lovingly, he really wanted to get rid of the title of uncle now, but he didn't make a big salute, so he could only call it like this first.

Zhang Xiaobao nodded, it is estimated that this godfather and Xiao Li are afraid that they and Juan Juan will be too smooth and will not be good for future development, isn't it just to clean up the individual? Simple, otherwise life would be too monotonous.

Seeing that Xiaobao did not object, Gao Lishi smiled happily, suddenly remembered something, and asked: "Xiaobao, do you have any tricks for managing logistics organizations?" Uncle has been busy for the last few days. ”

"Oh, yes, this is actually a science, overall management, can also be said to be organization, simple to say simple, difficult to say, back I will sort it out to Uncle Gao, in fact, the people in the inner courtyard of my family have learned, there are many fixed models to learn from, but can not be read according to the book, flexible use, and the same as marching and fighting, the army is impermanent, water is impermanent."

Zhang Xiaobao doesn't keep this knowledge secret, he is not afraid that others will lose the stage, there are many people who have learned this kind of knowledge before, but how many can compete with him?

"But you can't teach it to foreigners, and all the good things are left." Zhang Xiaobao added.

"Sure enough, Xiaobao and peace of mind, keep all the good knowledge, at the beginning, according to what your family said wrongly, run a school in a coastal place, earn money from other countries, educate them, and wait for them to learn the way of kings and ministers, and then talk about others, but make a lot of money, the emperor is very happy whenever he mentions it."

Gao Lishi got the exact answer in Xiaobao's mouth, and finally settled down, and it would be easier to do things in the future, and at the same time he also looked down on the people of Zhang Wang's family, loyal and patriotic, and took good skills out of the country, not sparing, but asked over and over again not to let other countries learn.

If you really want to say that it is a payment and a gain, the court loses to the two families.

The car was not slow, and it arrived at the Hibiscus Garden after an hour, and no one stopped it on the road, so it went directly into it.

Gao Lishi got out of the car first, and he didn't need help from others, so he had to take Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan out of the car by himself, grabbed their hands, and walked towards one place.

Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan look at the dress on their bodies, whether it is appropriate, and the etiquette that should be there is still to be there, after all, Xiao Li is the emperor, even if Juan Juan has not seen the face of the chairman and the prime minister when he was a child before, it cannot be rude.

As a result, the two of them sniffed at the same time and smelled a smell of oily smoke.

After turning two more corners, when he appeared in front of a house, Zhang Xiaobao finally couldn't help but ask, "Uncle Gao, where are we going?" ”

"Good place, the kitchen behind the Royal Banquet Palace in Furong Garden." Colliers replied.

"What are you doing in the kitchen? I'm not hungry yet. Zhang Xiaobao noticed that something was wrong.

"It's not the trouble caused by the burnt hump you sent last time, Bi Gou and Yao Chong often write to praise you for your good cooking, eat intimately, make a few dishes first, and then go to Qujiang to eat and drink."

Gao Lishi's face flushed slightly, and he brought the two little guys and asked them to cook, which was too bullying, but who made His Majesty worry about it.

Zhang Xiaobao's lips moved to Wang Juan, "I'm all served, don't you have to go to the place when it's done, and be a royal chef in the palace?" ”

"Opportunity, opportunity, opportunity to promote the restaurant, remember to call it, what is the first floor in the world, the world's best food, it's okay."

Wang Juan replied.

Zhang Xiaobao accepted his fate, considering that he still had to drink, he thought in his heart to make two to light, two salty, not greasy, if it is not enough to eat, just barbecue on the edge of the Qujiang River, don't expect the carver, he has no time to practice this.

Wang Juan asked Gao Lishi: "Uncle Gao, when you go to Qujiang to eat and drink, do you still want to Qushui?" Freeze, right? ”

"It's over, it's broken again, and a large area is fenced off, so that it doesn't freeze anymore, like a cloud of water, and a lot of kitchen ingredients have been prepared, but you can do it."

Gao Lishi spoke, and took the two into the kitchen, at this time, there were many cooks waiting inside, ready to cook for the emperor, and he didn't wait for instructions, but he didn't expect General Gao to bring two babies in, and they all greeted him.

With a straight face and a slight nod, Gao Lishi lowered his head and said to Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan with a smile: "Choose, if you don't have it, ask someone to take it." ”

Zhang Xiaobao looked around, it was really good, there were a lot of tools, and the cleaning was clean, there were no rats drilling around, no cockroaches crawling around, and there were no cobwebs and ash hangings in the corners, why was it so clean?

Then I stepped forward to see the seasoning, it was really complete, and even the chicken essence that my family had just made in Yizhou, not to mention the monosodium glutamate boiled out of the kelp and sea intestines, which was basically the same as in my own kitchen, but there was one thing missing, puffer fish trace toxins, which are usually used when eating hot pot, I guess I don't dare, for fear of poisoning people if I put too much.

"Take a cold melon." Zhang Xiaobao ran to the place where the ingredients were put and was startled again, how many people have to eat this? The varieties are complete enough, but they can't find a cold melon, so they asked someone to bring it.

The cooks looked at Zhang Xiaobao like fools, but no one moved.

Gao Lishi saw that his son asked for a cold melon and no one took it, did it not work to talk by himself? Am I not the head of the Inner Chamberlain? Glaring at the "cold melon." ”

"General Gao, look at the current season, where is the cold melon?" A eunuch next to him, who should be in the position of the head chef, said to help the cooks solve the problem, his voice was small, and he was afraid that Gao Lishi would wave his hand and let people drag him out and beat him to death with a cane.

"Why not? No wonder Your Majesty has always been uncomfortable eating recently, it turns out that the ingredients have not been matched, and he ordered someone to go to the champion building to take one, pick the big one, and the day before yesterday, the champion building also sent two over, you didn't have it? ”

Gao Lishi did not continue to investigate, otherwise ten whips would have fallen on the body of this eunuch, and today his son and daughter-in-law are here, and they are kind.

As for whether the emperor eats well, he knows what's going on, and he came back after listening to Xiaobao and Juanjuan, thinking about what he ate last time, and seeing that the food was not good, but the cold melon is really there, and the champion Lou really sent it.

"By the way, bring some cistanche meat, there are pickled ones, and dog meat, forget it, this can't be on the table, deer pith and carrots are ready."

Zhang Xiaobao added, and the eunuch in charge of the kitchen looked at Zhang Xiaobao and then at Gao Lishi.

"Why don't you go soon? What Xiaobao said today is what I said. "Gao Lishi suddenly found that today's subordinate is so ignorant?

The eunuch ran out and arranged for someone to hurry up and get things back, and when he was done, he reacted and thought about who Xiaobao was? Xiaobao? Little baby, there is a little girl next to it, two little babies, one is called Xiaobao, and the other is called Juan Juan?

I'm Di Niang, no wonder Lord Gao brought it here, to see the emperor, last time the burning hump heard that the two of them made it to send Lord Gao and the emperor to taste, it turned out that I just met with the god of killing and it was fine, not dead, I heard that the person who saw her smile was going to bleed to death, and she didn't smile at me just now?

As soon as he came back, the eunuch in the kitchen trembled, and he didn't dare to look at Wang Juan when he wanted to see him, his face changed, and others thought that he had just been trained.

Zhang Xiaobao didn't care about the others, and asked people to bring tofu and shallots, mixed a few seasonings, stir-fried the tempeh sauce and poured it over, and a shallot mixed with tofu was ready.

Then prepare to make a shrimp fried leek, and other two things, remove the watermelon pulp, beat off the skin, knead it, make a cold melon skin, plus this dish of cistanche, a total of four, simple.

Wang Juan also asked people to spread a few pancakes, and asked Xiaobao to readjust the sauce, peel a few green onions, and roll them up to eat them after a while.

The cooks in the kitchen watched the tall man take the two babies, let the people serve four dishes and leave to send them to the emperor, looked at each other, and said in their hearts that this is clearly a lie to the emperor, to eat melon skin for the emperor, and the shallots and tofu that are usually eaten by the rich people, will the emperor blame himself for trouble?

"Escrow, I don't know where Lord Gao got the liar? To make something like that for the emperor to eat, in case ......" A cook asked the steward eunuch worriedly.

"Shhhh Be quiet, don't let them hear it, who just saw that girl smile? I said to myself, hurry back and prepare for the future, otherwise it will be too late. ”

The steward eunuch's face was full of fear, and he also looked in the direction where the three of them left.

Gao Lishi and the others didn't know what was happening in the back of the kitchen, and walked all the way to the edge of the Qujiang River.

Li Longji has been waiting for a while to find a storyteller to talk about Yizhou there, although many times it is exaggerated, then he also likes to listen.

I heard that Gao Lishi led Xiao Baojuan to come over immediately, and asked people to warm the wine, this wine is still a low-degree tonic wine taken from the hospital, and two sour plums are thrown to taste, I don't know what he thinks.

The storyteller said that Juan Juan led the troops to burn grain, and the light horse galloped on the frontier This time, Gao Lishi and the three of them came, and Xiaobao and Juan Juan handed over all the bits and pieces on their bodies, such as fire guns, sleeve arrows, poison needles, boot soles knives, necklaces that concealed drugs, belts with stabbing springs, daggers tied to calves, and bracelets that could pull out a slender steel wire.

These things don't need to be mentioned by others, they are all taken out by themselves, and the person in charge of collecting things and Gao Lishi are speechless.

"Keep it, Xiaobao and Juan Juan will still be on your body when you turn around." Colliers instructed the man in charge of collecting the weapon.

The man nodded, if it weren't for Gao Lishi beside him, he really wanted to break the mouths of the two babies and take a look.

Walking past the man, Gao Lishi asked, "Xiaobao, Juanjuan, you two have so many ...... on you What is the stuff for? ”

"Self-defense, I and Juan Juan are small, and it is easy to become the target of others to threaten my family, if anyone hits our idea, Juan Juan and I will make him regret it, oh, tell that person, don't touch it, some things are poisonous, and the kind that seals the throat with blood."

Zhang Xiaobao told the truth.

Gao Lishi touched the heads of the two people again, "It's really not easy, it's hard for you two little guys, in the future, Uncle Gao will match you with a few more masters, save yourself from being harmed, rest assured, no one will touch your things, if you really move and be poisoned, you deserve it, you can save it." ”

When the three of them saw Li Longji, Li Longji was throwing sour plums into the wine, Zhang Xiaobao was stunned, and looked at the sky again, what do you mean? Green plum boiled wine on heroes? It is estimated that there will be no thunder.

Li Longji, who had finished throwing sour plums into the wine, looked up, and also saw the three of them coming, stood up, took two quick steps to meet the front, and didn't speak, just stood in front of Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan and stared at the two people.

"The minister has seen Your Majesty." Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan bowed and saluted Li Longji.

"Okay, okay, come here, just wait for the two of you guests to arrive, it's really good, better than the painting, I heard that you are about to return to Beijing, I am happy, when you were fighting outside, I couldn't sleep well, and I couldn't eat well, I was afraid that the Tubo people would harm you, and you too, let you come back early, but ran to the desert to go around, I knew that this was the case, and I didn't send you a will to go out of the customs to reinforce at the beginning."

Li Longji changed his usual way of talking to the minister, snatched Xiaobao and Juan Juan from Gao Lishi's hand, and pulled them to the place where he had just come, talking as he walked.

"Thank you Your Majesty, Your Majesty has given you the opportunity to get credit, if you don't go out of the customs, wouldn't you have failed Your Majesty, Tubo is actually very stupid, they will be confused when they go around, and they don't dare to enter the desert, so the ministers will look for good things in the desert, and practice soldiers by the way."

Wang Juan said in obedience.

"Don't allow it next time, if you want to go, you have to bring more elite soldiers, well-said, the Tubo people are really stupid, hahaha, 40,000 troops, I don't dare to enter the desert one step, in previous years, Koubian's courage has been beaten by the juan, come, I respect the two heroes with a cup, can you drink?"

Li Longji didn't believe that the people in Tubo were stupid, but he was still happy to listen to Wang Juan's words, and the battle was fought majestically.

Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan smelled the smell of wine, knew that it was a low-level remedy, and then looked at the small glass, nodded and took the wine glass, and drank it with Li Longji and Gao Lishi.

After a glass of wine, Li Longji couldn't wait to say: "Quickly bring the dishes made by Juan Juan and Xiaobao and taste them." ”

As soon as the dishes were served, Li Longji directly waved away the eunuch who wanted to taste the vegetables and test the poison, took a melon slice and put it in his mouth, chewed it and praised: "It's delicious, cool and delicious, why don't you two stay and be the imperial chef?" ”
