Zhao Ying walked on the streets of the palace, and the brocade-clothed guards, eunuchs, and fanzi he met along the way all looked at the wind and bowed their heads.

Zhao Ying was accustomed to this kind of pomp, and swept past everyone with an expressionless face, and walked to Fengtian Gate.

Fengtianmen is the imperial gate of the imperial palace, the main gate of the three major halls, the imperial gate of the emperor of the dynasty is held here, and it is naturally the most brilliant and magnificent gate of the imperial palace. When the three major halls were first built, Zhu Di came to inspect and saw that the regulations of Fengtianmen were similar to those of Nanjing, except for the degree of newness and oldness, which did not exceed the Nanjing Imperial Palace. When the dragon was displeased, after going in to inspect the three major halls, he ordered that the three halls be demolished and rebuilt, if there is no improvement, all the craftsmen will be killed.

Therefore, now the newly built Fengtian Gate, is the heavy eaves rest on the top of the mountain, the white marble pedestal, the face is wide and nine, into the depth of three, the magnificent palace general a majestic palace gate, the door of the copper tripod four, a pair of bronze lions, the left male and the right female, mighty and fierce, looking at the majestic square in front of you, the Jinshui River in the square meanders from west to east, the river crosses five inner Jinshui bridges, the Chinese emperor is one universe and eight directions, the heroic style of dominating the world is fully demonstrated.

Now, the owner of this palace and this palace gate is unconscious, and his minions have firmly grasped this palace gate in their hands - inside and outside the Fengtian Gate, there are eunuchs, guards and fans trusted by Zhao Ying, and those guys who were born in Jinyi have no chance to appear here.

This situation and this scene made Zhao Gonggong, who was standing on the high imperial steps, unable to help but give birth to some illusions that he was the only one and that I had in the world.

Calming down, Zhao Ying walked to the duty room on the east side of the door, and as soon as he arrived at the door, he smelled a strong smell of meat.

When he opened the door curtain, Zhao Ying almost fainted, only to see Wang Xian sitting comfortably on a horse, using the red charcoal basin burned in front of him as an oven, and turning the roast mutton on top with a smile. The lamb was cut into mahjong-sized squares, skewered with slender iron chisels, and the golden oil was roasted over the charcoal fire, and the oil splashed on the fiery charcoal, making a sizzling sound, and the enticing aroma filled the room and wafted out through the door curtain.

"Nonsense!" Zhao Ying put down the curtain, and wanted to take away the charcoal basin in anger, and glared angrily at the eunuch waiting next to him: "Who brought this charcoal basin?!" ”

"Don't get excited, husband Zhao," Wang Xian stretched out his hand to protect the charcoal basin, and smiled disapprovingly: "It was this seat that said that I wanted to invite my husband to eat barbecue and forced them to bring the brazier." He said with a smile: "Besides, the thief here is cold, and if you don't make a fire, you will freeze your feet." ”

"Uncle Zhongyong understands the rules or not, this is the royal gate, there can't be half a spark!" Zhao Ying has been in the palace for the first time, and some rules have been engraved in his bones.

"Don't worry, every house has a fire, how many have lit the house?" Wang Xian looked lazy, pulled Zhao Ying to sit down and said, "Relax, really count me." Come, try my craft, and make sure you bite your tongue......" As he said as he magically took out two bamboo jars and shook them towards the brazier a few times, and the yellow and red powder drifted down. Most of the powder fell on the meat skewers, and some of them flew in front of Zhao Ying, Zhao Ying only felt a pungent nose, his complexion changed drastically, and he wanted to hold his breath to avoid this poison of unknown origin, but he was still smoked and sneezed earth-shatteringly!

"You dare to poison my father-in-law!" Ma De drew his knife and glared at Wang Xian. Wang Xian turned a blind eye, picked up a skewer of meat, ate it by himself, and nodded with satisfaction while eating. "You're welcome, try it." Don't forget to greet Zhao Ying.

Zhao Ying blew his nose with a handkerchief, then smelled the extremely tempting fragrance again, and watched Wang Xian quickly finish eating one, he also picked up one and sent it to his mouth hesitantly...... At such an age, Gonggong Zhao has long had no desire to speak, but he just didn't want to fall behind in front of his opponent...... In Zhao Ying's view, Wang Xian's pretentiousness is a provocation to himself. Once you don't dare to eat it, you will fall behind. This is unacceptable to Zhao Gonggong, who has always been so strong.

Looking at the unknown color of red, red, yellow and yellow on the piece of meat, Ma De and the others' hearts all rose to their throats, and their hearts said that although the ancestors were the best in the world, they did not reach the point where they were invincible. Looking at the color on this meat skewer, it is the poison of seven insects and seven flowers in Miaojiang, Yunnan, and it is difficult to solve this poison......

But Gonggong Zhao is a hero after all, even if his subordinates are scared to sift the chaff, he still bites off a piece with a righteous and awe-inspiring bite, and his face changes dramatically, and his mouth hisses out. When everyone under his command saw this, their eyes were about to split, and they pulled out their blades and were about to cut at Wang Xian: "Ah! You really want to poison my father-in-law! ”

"Presumptuous!" The two monks from Qingshou Temple, Xinning and Xinyuan, who were standing behind Wang Xian, also showed the demon pestle!

Wang Xian was still unmoved, only looked at Zhao Ying with a smile, and sure enough, he saw that Zhao Ying's old face gradually bloomed with chrysanthemums, and a pair of eagle eyes narrowed into slits, chewing for a long time before swallowing slowly, as if he was reluctant...... Everyone also saw it, and they all looked at Zhao Ying's expression of enjoying bliss, and stopped their movements for a while.

"Could it be the long-lost Bliss?" Beside Ma De, a foreman whispered, naturally in exchange for Ma De's big eyes.

Zhao Ying never expected that at this age, he would be able to have a day of joy because of the desire for his tongue. Zhao Ying tasted the meat skewers in his hand carefully, looking at his expression, it was more like indulging in some kind of blissful experience. made the two monks secretly disdainful, and said in their hearts that this Dongchang Governor was so old, and he couldn't imagine that he was still so greedy. Of course, young people can't understand how terrible the degradation of taste is......

"How?" Wang Xian smiled and asked:

"It's delicious!" Zhao Ying gave a thumbs up without hesitation, and even the iron law that no fire can be lit in Fengtianmen was thrown out of the clouds.

"How can you do without meat without wine?" Wang Xian said with a smile.

"That's right!" Zhao Ying laughed and said: "Bring the wine, our family wants to stay drunk with the uncle!" ”

Ma De hurriedly patted off the mud seal of the wine aged in Nanefu, and poured the pale yellow slightly viscous wine into two wine bowls.

"Moutai!" Wang Xian sniffed vigorously, and his eyes lit up and said, "More than twenty years!" ”

"Connoisseur!" Zhao Ying praised again, picked up the wine bowl and touched it with Wang Xian, drank it all, wiped his mouth with his sleeve and said: "This is when the emperor was in the palace, Mu Guogong sent it from Yunnan, and he has been hiding in Beijing City!" He laughed and said, "This heavenly wine is worthy of your delicious food, right?" ”

"Deserved!" Wang Xian laughed and drank it all happily, and the two of them ate meat while drinking, how could there be a bit of tension?

In the blink of an eye, the roasted meat was wiped out, and seventy percent of it entered Zhao Ying's mouth. Seeing that he was still unsatisfied, Wang Xian smiled apologetically: "The preparation is too hasty, the marinated mutton is gone, only some dog meat, I don't know if my father-in-law dislikes it." ”

"But black dog meat?" Zhao Ying asked with a smile.

"Black dogs, of course." Wang Xian smiled: "One black, two yellow, three flowers and four white." ”

"Connoisseur!" Zhao Ying smiled and raised his thumb. watched Wang Xian put the marinated dog meat on the iron grate and roasted it, and when the dog meat was golden, Wang Xian took out the two bamboo tubes and began to sprinkle condiments on them. Zhao Ying finally couldn't help but ask: "Uncle, where did you get this condiment, why have you never seen it?" ”

"Oh...... This yellow color is cumin powder, which is produced in Hami, western Xinjiang, China. Wang Xian said with a smile while operating: "This red one is even rarer, it is chili noodles, which I asked Gonggong Zheng to find from the West." It's only ten pounds in total......"

"No wonder," Zhao Ying sighed at Wang Xian's dedication to food, and suddenly said: "No wonder Uncle will carry it with him." ”

"Hahaha, how could it be!" Wang Xian laughed loudly: "How can this official say that he is also the governor of the dignified brocade clothes, and he carries two seasoning jars with him all day long, what kind of thing is it?!" ”

"And what is this?" Zhao Ying's heart tightened, and he asked with a puzzled face, "Where did you get it from?" ”

"Naturally, it was taken from my house." Wang Xian said with a smile.

"So, you have a plan to invite our family to dinner?!" Zhao Ying's eyes gradually opened, and he returned to his vulture appearance.

"I don't dare to talk about it, it's actually a temporary idea." Wang Xian glanced at Zhao Ying lightly, and said with a faint smile: "And these meats, I let them marinate at home and just sent them in." ”

After Wang Xian finished speaking, Zhao Ying was silent, and Wang Xian focused on turning the dog meat on the grate, and said with some regret while flipping: "Husband Zhao doesn't know, this big black dog was originally used by the official for hunting. It's just that the official is now in a prominent position, and the emperor and His Royal Highness the crown prince have repeatedly told him to be steady, and it is not suitable to hunt again, so he had to kill the old dog and eat meat. ”

"Hehe......" Although Zhao Ying was still laughing, his smile had become far-fetched and cold. Wang Xian was still enthusiastic, and sent the roasted golden dog meat sprinkled with cumin and chili noodles to Zhao Ying: "Taste it while it's hot." ”

Zhao Ying's complexion changed several times, and he finally squeezed out a trace of an ugly smile: "Our family can't eat it." Saying that, he excused himself and got up and said, "Thank you Uncle for your hospitality, our family still has official business, so let's go first." ”

"What's the hurry, it's not too late to eat this old dog and leave." Wang Xian smiled and stayed as a guest, Zhao Ying's face was extremely ugly, and he resolutely resigned and left the room.

"Sure enough, the same kind doesn't eat, and it's in vain for me to harm me," Seeing Zhao Ying take people away, Wang Xian took the dog meat and asked the two senior brothers behind him: "Do you eat it?" ”

The two senior brothers naturally shook their heads quickly. Wang Xian pursed his lips, glanced at the dog meat with some regret, then threw it into the brazier, took the white handkerchief and wiped his hands clean, and said, "This old dog is not stupid yet." ”

Although Xinning and Xinyuan were confused, the monks were the most taboo, although they wanted to know why, Wang Xian could settle the old eunuch who occupied the right time and place with a meal of wine and meat, but he still couldn't help but not ask.

Unable to wait for his subordinates to ask questions with admiration, Wang Xian looked at the two of them sadly, and secretly scolded these two monks, which was really a pair of gourds, which greatly reduced his sense of achievement.
