Not to mention the palace maids, the eunuchs were all stunned. Even the guards who followed the Queen Mother out of the palace and the mysterious and brave eunuchs who lived deep in the Ouchi Palace were dumbfounded.
Everyone has been in the palace for so many years, but have you ever seen the boss of Dongchang who has such superb cooking skills, can invent various dishes, and can also cook porridge?
This Mr. Shen is really a weirdo.
Don't say it yet.
The palace maids and eunuchs have not read many books and do not understand any big principles. In everyone's opinion...
Mr. Shen came up with endless ways to conjure food like a magic trick, but he solved the urgent need. This is the living Bodhisattva who has survived countless lives.
Much better than those adults who swore in court.
not far away.
Zhang Jingxiu couldn't help but laugh out loud.
That smile is like a flower.
She couldn't help but roll her eyes at Shen Lie. Didn't she know that her own master, Master Shen, was a cook?
in those days……
The cook captured her heart with his boiled white meat, and the variety of delicacies he prepared, making her unable to stop eating, and he unknowingly joined the gang and boarded the pirate ship.
after that.
As soon as she became confused, she became his wife.
Shen Lie happily didn't care, but rubbed his hands in embarrassment, remembering the sage's teachings: A gentleman can only stay in the kitchen and be good at reading.
Isn't this fart!
A saint doesn't eat, drink, poop or urinate. Why are you pretending to be elegant?
Who said this?
Mencius said.
"A gentleman is like an animal. Seeing it live, he can't bear to see it die. Hearing its sound, he can't bear to eat its flesh. That's why a gentleman is far away from the kitchen."
Shen Liexin said.
You are a saint, you are noble, you are great, if you have the guts, don’t eat it, you claim that you are not even willing to kill a chicken...
But you eat more meat than anyone else!
at this time.
Shen Lie pondered happily, thinking that Shen's killer weapon hadn't been taken out yet, and he was waiting for the sweet potato powder to be ground and made into vermicelli.
That's called delicious.
By the time.
Shen then performed a pork and cabbage stew with vermicelli for the Queen Mother, and then killed pigs for the victims every day to celebrate the New Year.
Two big bowls per person!
Looking at Shen Lie's slightly funny face, not to mention Queen Wang who couldn't hold back her laughter, even the fair corners of the graceful and dignified Queen Mother Li's mouth were twitching constantly.
Finally, he was in front of the palace maids, eunuchs and guards.
Laughed out loud.
Empress Dowager Li couldn't help laughing and hurriedly covered her face with her sleeves, using her wide sleeves to cover up her peerless face. Smiles are always contagious.
Not long after.
Everyone's face was filled with an indescribable smile.
Ever since.
Originally a disaster relief scene where tens of thousands of people gathered, it began to deviate from its original track and developed in the direction of food tasting.
Seeing Shen Lie's honest smile, Queen Mother Li quickly put her smile away.
Overjoyed.
Then he gave Shen Lie a few words to make sure that the victims of the disaster eat well and sleep well, so as not to cause a tragedy where people starve to death.
Think about it.
Empress Dowager Li left some eunuchs and maids behind, and the royal guards were here to help. It was getting late, so it was time for her to drive back to the palace.
Shen Lie respectfully agreed, and personally put the Bodhisattva-hearted Queen Mother into the carriage, and watched her drive towards the imperial city.
Just turned around.
He waved his hand.
All the palace maids and eunuchs smiled and said to their beloved wives and concubines.
“Soup porridge!”
The group of people chatted and laughed, carrying the big iron pot and walking towards the porridge shed not far away. Bowls of porridge and rice were distributed, and the long line of victims fell silent.
The dirty faces were full of gratitude, and some people dragged their families and knelt down to these nobles who were dressed in palace clothes or Dongchang uniforms.
The overwhelming crowd fell to their knees.
He kept kowtowing vigorously.
Shen Lie had no time to stop him. Looking at the grateful victims, he could only urge: "Go and urge... get some more big fat pigs from Zhuangzi."
"be quick!"
not far away.
On the slightly bumpy road.
No one is around.
The exhausted Empress Dowager Li felt relieved and fell asleep unconsciously. The body that had been holding on for several days could no longer hold on, and she soon fell asleep.
aside.
Queen Wang hurriedly put a blanket on the Queen Mother, recalling Shen Lie's every move, she still couldn't help laughing.
In deep sleep.
A smile appeared on the corners of the Queen Mother's mouth involuntarily.
As the sun sets.
at dusk.
The sweet potato vermicelli and big fat pig that Shen Lie had longed for finally arrived from Shenjiazhuang, letting the aroma of the stew waft up.
A large number of temporary wooden sheds built by logging also accommodated many victims.
As the old, weak, women and children moved in, soldiers and government officials sent by the Five Cities Military and Horse Division began to patrol along the official road, frightening all kinds of prostitutes who were ready to move.
The restless people's hearts became more at ease.
As the torches light up.
After a busy day.
Shen Lie sat on a large bluestone, slapping his sore calves, while his beloved wife and concubines sat with him on the left and right, chatting about the family's shortcomings.
Facing the sunset, the scenery is infinitely beautiful.
Looking at his beloved wife's profile, Shen Lie said softly: "How is everything at home?"
Zhang Jingxiu nodded and responded softly: "Yes, everything is fine."
There was silence for a moment.
Shen Lie then asked again: "Father-in-law, he..."
The words fell.
Zhang Jingxiu's bright eyes dimmed, and it was obvious that Zhang Juzheng's condition was not good.
Shen Lie's heart sank and he was about to speak.
The sound of horse hooves is rapid.
The Imperial Guards in bright red clothes came from the direction of the capital. When they saw the people from Dongchang not far away, they dismounted and inquired about Shen Lie's location.
"Master Shen."
The imperial guard said respectfully: "Your Majesty invites you into the palace."
Shen Lie nodded.
"knew."
Say goodbye to wives and concubines who are reluctant to leave.
Shen Lie got on his horse and galloped towards the city with the imperial guards.
Xiyuan.
The time when the lanterns first come on.
The emperor's palace was much more guarded than before.
Shen Lie followed the imperial guards and quickly walked into the courtyard, and saw the emperor, whom he had not seen for many days, sitting on the steps, staring at the sky in a daze.
Shen Lie was stunned, then hurriedly stepped forward and whispered to the emperor: "Your Majesty... the ground is cold."
But Zhu Yijun didn't seem to hear it.
Looked over.
The emperor's eyes that had lost focus gradually regained their energy, and the corners of his chapped mouth raised slightly, and he said softly.
"came back?"
Shen Lie's heart tightened and he said hurriedly: "Well, I'm back, Your Majesty... get up quickly."
But Zhu Yijun ignored him, still sitting on the steps, and said softly: "It doesn't matter, I'm not made of clay, I'm not so delicate."
Shen Lie was helpless and said no more.
Instead, he lifted up the hem of his official uniform.
I sat down with him.
The monarch and his minister raised their heads together and looked at the miserable night in the sky.
Silent for a long time.
for a long time.
The emperor's hoarse voice rang in Shen Lie's ears: "Since I took office, natural disasters have continued. Am I really... unethical?"
Shen Lie was speechless.
Cursing in my heart.
Look at what those moral gentlemen and those who read the books of sages tortured a good emperor.
Think about it.
Shen Lie said firmly: "I believe that man can conquer heaven."
Zhu Yijun was dumbfounded at first, and then his slightly childish face showed an interesting smile and said: "I have been ordered by heaven to live forever, but you are a little treasonous."
Shen Lie was quite disapproving and grinned, but a tacit understanding emerged in his heart, and he looked at the emperor and laughed.
