Fengjun didn't have any discomfort with his family taking money since the war.
Businessmen are big on profits, but they can also understand reality.
Since they received the royal blessing, they naturally needed to provide what they should have when the royal family needed it.
It's not an equal exchange, but for the Feng family, it's definitely worth every penny.
So, what are the grievances about?
Just give it.
Otherwise, how do you know that once His Majesty becomes angry, he will send your nine tribes to heaven without finding any reason, and then seize your property?
As soon as Guo Yinghui heard about the emergency report at the border, he went to the door of Feng's house, picked a horse, and went back to his hometown directly.
Xiao Nianzhi ignored the external disturbances for the time being and just wanted to give her grandpa a comfortable and warm birthday experience.
So, as soon as she came back, she took the fish to the kitchen.
Grandpa Feng and Feng Ning were together. They couldn't really help, and they couldn't help either. They could only watch from the side and hand over tools from time to time.
Xiao Nianzhi rolled up his sleeves first, and then started killing fish.
When Isatis saw it, her eyelids twitched, and she stepped forward to help.
This life now...
She can do it too!
Xiao Nianzhi didn't compete with her either.
As for two fish, two people can go faster together.
When other chefs asked for help, Xiao Nianzhi did not refuse and asked them to prepare other ingredients later.
If you are making a home-cooked fish stew, you can stew only the fish or add tofu.
In fact, radish will work, but it won’t have the rich flavor of tofu.
Moreover, radish is suitable for sea fish, but for lake fish like them, tofu is more suitable.
Therefore, the tofu is ready, as well as a corresponding amount of chopped green onion, minced garlic, etc., so as not to need to cut it again when it is ready to be used.
After Xiao Nianzhi handled the fish, he quickly changed the flower knife.
She moves quickly and has great strength.
In the blink of an eye, even the fish bones were chopped open.
Feng Ning watched from the side, unable to close his mouth.
To be honest, this was her first time watching her cousin cook directly.
How do you describe this feeling?
Surprising and shocking!
If the home-cooked fish stew is to be delicious, the sauce must be good and the taste must be rich and mellow.
Xiao Nianzhi uses his own sauce and adds a lot of ingredients. The taste is slightly different from others. After high temperature and hot oil, it will become more mellow and fragrant.
After the fish was ready, Xiao Nianzhi heated up the oil in the pot.
Sauté chopped green onion, ginger slices and minced garlic until fragrant. Considering that Grandpa Feng has a light diet and is not suitable for eating spicy food, Xiao Nianzhi did not put in the chopped dogwood.
Zhila!
The sound of delicious food rang out, playing the moving music of today.
When the cold onion and ginger collided with the hot oil, there was first a fragrant white mist, like a swimming dragon, swimming crazily from bottom to top, but after taking off, it slowly dissipated into the air.
Turned into water vapor.
Then came the rich incense, which seemed to follow the golden light of the mist dragon, followed closely by layers of white mist and rising water vapor, exploding an alluring aroma directly into the air.
When the mellow homemade sauce is also put into the pot, stir-fry it with the green onion and ginger in hot oil. The aroma and aroma of the sauce seem to reach its peak at this moment, tempting people's gourmet nerves to follow this.
A strong aroma, shake repeatedly.
Almost at the same time, the oil on the stove on the other side was already hot.
The two assistant chefs, under the arrangement of Xiao Nianzhi, put the fish that had been processed and cut into fish directly into the pan to fry.
After frying, the fish is crispy on the outside and soft and fragrant on the inside. When the soup is added, even the fish skin will become soft, waxy and delicious.
Moreover, the fish meat after oiling will be firmer and more delicious.
The two fish over there were fried until browned on both sides. Xiao Nianzhi had already added hot water, white mist was rising, and the entire kitchen was becoming hazy.
Xiao Nianzai, in a hazy state, moved the two fried fishes to his pot without being affected at all.
Next comes the coloring part, there must be sugar to remove the fishy smell and enhance the flavor.
You also need to have soy sauce, and you also need to prepare your own chicken essence, but there is no rush to put them in at this time.
Adding salt in advance will affect the taste of the fish, so you can press it back slightly.
After that, this delicacy is just left to time and temperature.
Of course, that doesn’t mean you don’t have to watch it, you also need to pay attention to the heat.
No need to cover the pot, it will taste better.
After finishing all this, Xiao Nianzhi was ready to take a look at the side dishes.
There is tofu that I like, and vermicelli that my grandpa likes.
Xiao Nianzhi chose wide noodles that are more resistant to cooking, so that even if it takes a longer time to cook, they won't clump together and become unpalatable.
Don’t rush to put the tofu and vermicelli at this time. You still need to shrink the fish soup a little more to let the fish really absorb the flavor. Then add the tofu to absorb it. Finally, collect the soup and the dish is ready.
Already.
Because he used pork paste to stir-fry until fragrant, Xiao Nianzhi did not stir-fry pork belly.
When the soup was almost absorbed, Xiao Nianzhi put in the tofu, vermicelli and salt, stirred the soup a little, and then moved the fish, not too much, so as not to break the fish into pieces, just to prevent the pot from being scorched.
In the end, you just need to wait for the soup to dry up, and then you can take it out of the pot.
On the other side, the cook had already steamed the rice for dinner, and the chefs were also busy frying a few more vegetables in the empty pot.
When the home-style fish stew here comes out of the pot, the dishes over there also come out one after another.
Looking at the brightly colored homemade fish stew, Grandpa Feng swallowed quietly, and Feng Ning's tears almost flowed from the corners of his mouth.
The two people controlled it for a while, and then silently retreated.
After all, I really can't help.
Since there was no birthday today, everyone still had dinner in the banquet room.
Except for Xiao Nianzhi, no one in the mansion was an official in the court.
Therefore, when it comes to matters between the DPRK and China, it is a little later than others, but it is not too late.
After all, Concubine Hui was still in the harem, so they couldn't really ask nothing.
Therefore, the uncle went out to inquire about it.
An urgent report was made at the border, and this matter was reported all the way from outside the city to the palace. It was not a difficult secret to find out.
So while eating, Xiao Nianzhi knew that the urgent report came from the southwest.
In the southwest, in addition to the big country of Nanwu, there are several small countries, and further south there is the Annan Kingdom.
Now Nan Wu has joined forces with several small countries to cause trouble at the border and provoke Da Jin.
At the same time, the northwest is also ready to move, making it hard not to wonder whether the two of them are colluding together to put pressure on Dajin and then use it to gain some benefits back home.
Since the beginning of spring, the northwest has been uneasy.
There is something unusual going on in the southwest at this time, so there is no guarantee that they will stay honest.
Therefore, His Majesty is summoning his ministers to discuss the matter of going to war.
There is no shortage of generals in the Jin Dynasty, but there are not many outstanding ones.
Naturally, people like General Guo and Erye Zhao are good generals, and there are very few of them.
In the past, if the Zhendong Guard had nothing to do, His Majesty would definitely transfer Governor Zhao back to the southwest to guard it.
He has been there for several years and has a better understanding of the situation.
However, Guaguo is always ready to take action and frequently provokes.
At this time, it is definitely not possible to touch Governor Zhao.
Therefore, your Majesty still needs to carefully consider the generals sent to the southwest.
