Yue Wangshu finally saw how sumptuous a dinner at the level of the fourth concubine was.
A huge Eight Immortals table is filled with all kinds of delicacies, and the aroma of vegetables and meats hits your nostrils and makes people move their index fingers.
After the guests and hosts were seated, Concubine Xiang smiled warmly and said: "Yuecai people, please don't be formal, just treat it as if it's in your own palace. Come on, use it while it's hot."
As she spoke, Concubine Xiang took the lead in placing a large Luohan prawn into the eldest princess's bowl, "Eat quickly, we were clamoring for fried shrimp yesterday."
The eldest princess looked at the round fried shrimp balls with shrimp tails in the bowl. She turned around and told her maid: "Pick the sesame seeds on top for me. They are dark and off-putting just looking at them."
Yue Wangshu: This kid is really not picky!
This Luohan prawn, to put it simply, is fried shrimp balls, round and round like the belly of Luohan, with black sesame seeds on top... It really means something, but it is a bit off-putting.
Fried shrimp looks simple, but it’s actually quite complicated to make.
Take fresh prawns and divide them into three parts: head, body and tail. Remove the meat from the shrimp body and cut into pieces. Add water chestnuts, fatty pork, cooking wine and egg white to make a filling. Form into a ball and garnish.
Add shrimp tails, then fry them and garnish with black sesame seeds.
Finally, the shrimp heads are fried, then simmered with stock, and the shrimp heads are placed on a plate. After stir-frying, diced pork, diced bamboo shoots, and diced mushrooms are added, thickened, and poured over the Luohan prawns to complete the dish.
It can be said that you never tire of food and fine food.
The food on the table was perfect, but the princess could find faults with every dish.
"The lion's head is a little tired today." The eldest princess murmured with her mouth open.
"Also, don't put this plain-cut chicken in front of me. I can see the blood in the bones! It's too unappetizing!" the eldest princess said delicately and disgustedly.
The serving maid had to quickly move the plate of delicious white-cut chicken further away, and it happened to be right next to Yue Wangshu's hand.
As we all know, the meat of plain-cut chicken needs to be just cooked to taste good. If the bones inside are also cooked, the meat will be a bit old.
Concubine Xiang said helplessly: "In the future, I will tell the cook to remove the bones when cutting chicken."
"Yes, empress."
Yue Wangshu didn't mind it, so he picked up a piece and put it into his mouth. Well, it's so fresh and tender! What does it matter if there's a little blood in the bones? She doesn't eat bones.
This move made Concubine Xiang couldn't help but look at her twice.
But Concubine Xiang soon stopped looking at Yue Wangshu, because the eldest princess began to dislike it again, "Oh, the cherry meat is too sweet! Move away, move away!"
The maid of honor had no choice but to do as she was told.
The eldest princess disliked the cherry meat, but Yue Wangshu directly scooped it up with a spoon, four or five cherries in one spoon, and ate four or five spoonfuls in a row, with a look of endless aftertaste on his face.
Concubine Xiang: ...I know that it is not a problem with the food, but a problem with the food!
"This sweet and sour carp is so sour!" The eldest princess pouted her little mouth and started to complain again.
A vein popped up on Concubine Xiang's forehead, and finally she couldn't help but scolded: "You don't speak when you eat, and you don't speak when you sleep!"
The eldest princess, Lou Yu, had no choice but to shrink her head, and then signaled Palace Maid Bu Cai with her eyes to quickly move that annoying carp away!
Could it be that the Bucai palace maid who had served the eldest princess for many years did not understand what this little ancestor meant and quickly moved the sweet and sour carp aside.
Yue Wangshu smiled slightly, showing that the feeling was good, so he took a big mouthful and fucked the huge sweet and sour carp!
Concubine Xiang:......
While Yue Wangshu was feasting, he couldn't help but think to himself: The eldest princess is just a picky eater. The key is that she eats too little. No matter how good the meal is, she will never take a third bite!
However, although the eldest princess ate less, she also ate slowly! By the time the child was full, Yue Wangshu had already stuffed his belly full of chicken, duck and fish, which was called a very full child.
Concubine Xiang also put down her chopsticks and couldn't help but sigh sadly. Every dish on the table was moved around, but Aoyu only picked up a few of them and took a few bites. She only wanted to eat the fillings of the dumplings.
, I only ate the skin of the steamed buns, and only drank two sips of the bird's nest. It was really sad.
Obviously Yue Cai people eat so deliciously!
After eating the food, Concubine Xiang asked someone to serve digestion tea, then she forced out a smile and said, "Yue Cairen has a very good spleen and stomach."
Yue Wangshu hurriedly smiled and said: "The food in the palace is delicious. I am really in for a treat."
The eldest princess was sitting on the armchair on the side. She was a small person in a big chair, her legs were swaying one by one, and she held her chin in one hand, looking bored and listless.
Yue Wangshu said casually: "The eldest princess is going to take a nap?"
Concubine Xiang smiled bitterly: "I slept until three o'clock in the morning this morning. How can I still take a nap?"
Yue Wangshu also noticed that the eldest princess Changyu had quite a problem with her spleen and stomach. Thinking of the emperor's mission, he thought to himself, it seems that Concubine Xiang has been suffering from headaches for many years. Next, she will also have a headache with Concubine Xiang.
Yue Wangshu looked at the quiet eldest princess Chang Yu and said: "The princess is very demure."
Concubine Xiang sighed: "Apart from being picky about food, lazy and not fond of reading, everything else is fine."
After hearing this, the eldest princess Lou Yu drooped her face in displeasure.
Yue Wangshu couldn't help but cover his mouth and chuckle. These three questions are already a lot!
Wait, you are lazy??
Yue Wangshu smiled gently and asked the eldest princess softly: "What does the princess like to play in her daily life?"
The eldest princess tilted her head and thought for a while, then plucked her green little fingers and said: "Watch the opera, listen to the music, and read the script."
Yue Wangshu: They are all sitting still...
Yue Wangshu said casually: "The scenery in the Royal Garden is just right now. The weather is neither cold nor hot. Princess, don't you like to go out and enjoy the scenery?"
Lou Yu thought for a while and said, "I go there often too."
Yue Wangshu couldn't help but wonder, do you often go out for a walk? That's not enough to eat, right? Hey, wait!
"How did the princess get out?" Yue Wangshu asked hurriedly.
Lou Yu was stunned for a moment, then said with a strange look on her face: "Of course we will go out on our shoulders."
Yue Wangshu: ...Still not moving!!
She was sweating profusely!
Then he looked at Concubine Xiang Yu and said, "Your Majesty, don't you like to take a walk by yourself, princess?"
Concubine Xiang smiled and said: "This child has been squeamish since he was a child. Before he was three years old, he refused to walk on his own and had to be held by a nanny. When he was a little older, he also didn't like to have his feet on the ground. He either sat on a shoulder cart or sat on a warm chair.
sedan."
Okay, the case is solved!
If you don't move all day long, it's weird if you have a good appetite! It's weird if you can feel healthy!
Yue Wangshu couldn't help but said: "Life lies in movement!"
Concubine Xiang was stunned, and the eldest princess Changyu immediately retorted: "It is better to be still than to move!"
Yue Wangshu: This kid is not very good at legs and feet, but he is very sharp-tongued!!
Yue Wangshu could only continue: "Princess, as the saying goes, you can walk a hundred steps after a meal and live to be ninety-nine."
The eldest princess looked at her with drooping eyes.
Yue Wangshu:......
Concubine Xiang's face was filled with embarrassment, this child! Whenever she mentioned something she didn't like, it was this character!
"卍娍!" Concubine Xiang couldn't help but glare at her daughter.
The eldest princess had to quickly restore her normal eyesight.
Yue Wangshu knew that the child had a noble status, so he had no choice but to make a roundabout way, "Does the princess like to play shuttlecock?"
The eldest princess finally gained some energy: "I like to watch other people play shuttlecock."
Yue Wangshu:...... This chapter has been completed!
