Yin paused and said: "Qilin is very delicate. If you want to take it back to Jingyang Palace, I will assign someone to go back with you."
I was scared when I was in Gillington.
The lessons learned from Rouge and Xiao Lezi are there! We don’t want to add more people casually to the east courtyard of Jingyang Palace.
Yin glanced at the expression on her face and said: "Maybe there is another way. If there are smart people in your yard, allocate one to the Nourishment Hall, learn how to serve him from the little Gouzi, and then go back. That will work."
Ji Ling thought about it and decided to let it go. There was no one left in her yard. Xiao Dazi was in charge of the kitchen, so no one could touch him.
Xiao Fenzi took care of other things. He was quick in doing things and always had some sideways methods. He was very adaptable and seemed to be taking the lead.
As for Xiao Kezi, although he is just doing chores behind Xiao Fenzi now, he is also a reserve army.
No one should be missing.
Besides, she had never been a qualified poop scooper before she traveled through time. Every time she went to her best friend's house, she just took her dog out to play with and comb it.
If you raise a small animal, you must be responsible for it, otherwise don't get it easily on a whim.
That’s all.
Ji Ling let go and let Qixi hold Qilin in her arms. Seeing that she didn't mention it anymore, Yin made some jokes and suddenly heard Ji Ling's stomach growl a few times.
He glanced at Ji Ling: "Are you hungry?"
Ji Ling nodded a little embarrassedly. In the Yanxi Hall, it was not that dinner was not served to her in the evening, but Yin came too late, so the little food had already been consumed in her stomach.
Coupled with playing with the dog and running around the house with Qilin, it would be strange if my stomach doesn't growl.
Yin turned around and ordered people to go to the dining room to prepare supper.
Ji Ling listened to him talking about some dishes, but didn't pay much attention. Finally, he heard Yin say: "Send it directly to Yanxi Hall. There is no need to be complicated. Just move quickly."
In the Forbidden City, no matter whether the emperor ordered midnight snacks or not, various dishes were always warming on the stove in the imperial kitchen of Yangxin Hall.
What I'm afraid of is that the emperor will be hungry for a while, or he will stay late with the ministers to have some meals together.
We can't keep the emperor waiting!
Therefore, no matter whether the emperor wants it or not, there must be more than a dozen midnight snacks on the stove every day.
Not long after, the eunuchs who delivered meals to the imperial dining room were still filing in. The emperor could say "it doesn't have to be complicated," but the dining room supervisor didn't dare to really make an arrangement that was "not complicated."
Dishes with delicious taste and flavor were all put on the table.
Ji Ling looked at the dishes and found that many of them had his favorite taste.
There was a jade pot Ruyi Cake that she thought was a snack, but when she ate it, she realized it was tofu skin mixed with sugar, sesame oil, walnut kernels, yellow rice, honey, wolfberry, chestnuts, and grapes, kneaded together into the glutinous rice.
, put it in the pot to evaporate.
In the middle of the pot are fried shrimps in winter melon soup. The winter melon soup has long been boiled into a milky white juice. The shrimps are very fresh. Remove the heads and intestines of the shrimps, which gives a umami flavor. There are also a few hot and dried shredded strips in the middle.
Ham.
The ring of ruyi pancakes next to it is as delicious as pot stickers, especially the one close to the edge of the pot. After heating for a long time, the dough sticks to the edge of the pot a little, and you have to use some skill to prevent it from being damaged.
Cut it out into the shape of the dough.
Qixi carefully picked up a wishful cake and placed it on the plate in front of Ji Ling.
Ji Ling picked up his chopsticks, picked up the piece of cake and turned it around. He saw that the back was slightly browned, and sure enough, he felt a burnt aroma in his mouth.
It's crunchy when chewed, salty and sweet.
Yin watched her eat, but he didn't move his chopsticks very much. He just smiled and said: "I knew you would like this dish." Then he pointed to the pot and said: "The cakes should be eaten with this soup.
"
Ji Ling followed the good advice and immediately let Qixi dip into the soup.
There is another vegetarian dish, which uses a variety of dried vegetables, new peas, perilla leaves, soybeans, cabbage, leeks, cucumber slices, and eggplants. A total of eight ingredients are mixed together. Put them in the pan and stir-fry them over and over again. Finally,
All the oil is absorbed into the dish, and there are no oil stars visible outside.
Ji Ling had never been interested in such green vegetables at first glance. Qixi gave her some, so she took a bite and found that they were quite delicious!
Desserts are bean paste cakes fried with perilla. Perilla oil is a vegetable oil that the Manchus often ate before entering the customs. One of the offerings to the Sama Tiao Shen is called perilla cake, which refers to the cake fried with perilla.
cake.
The bean paste cake has red bean paste inside and a thick dough outside. Ji Ling took a bite and felt that it tasted a bit like brown sugar glutinous rice cake.
The last thing served was a very familiar dish of three fresh dragon and phoenix balls.
Ji Ling remembers that the first time she ate it was at the birthday party of Concubine Nian Yikun Palace!
That time, I didn't pay attention and ate the whole plate. Who knew that although Yin was sitting far away, he was always paying attention to her.
Seeing that she liked it, he rewarded her with another dish in public, which aroused the jealous and envious looks of many concubines.
She loves eating three-fresh dragon and phoenix balls. Yin can still remember Ji Ling's heart for such a trivial matter.
Qixi has already brought a dragon and phoenix ball over.
Ji Ling picked up the chopsticks and took a bite. Sure enough, the taste was still the same.
This dish of three fresh dragon and phoenix balls uses very little sauce. In order to color the dish, a little bit of rock sugar and soft white sugar are used to stir-fry it until it turns into sugar color. Before serving, pour it evenly on top.
But Ji Ling just liked the sauce, it was fresh and delicious.
Under the lamp, Yin silently watched her holding the dragon and phoenix balls with her chopsticks, dipping them in the sauce back and forth on the plate, and suddenly she said coldly: "I met your father this afternoon."
Ji Ling stopped chewing for a moment and looked up at Yin with the chopsticks still in his mouth.
Father? Her cheap father?
It was not that Ji Ling had not recalled the memory of the original owner in his mind, but the most profound memory of the original owner was how his father was cold to his mother and how he made his mother sad for half his life.
Yin leaned forward slightly, stretched out his hand to pull the chopsticks out of her mouth, and touched her head, then smiled slightly: "Your father is an upright person, but he lacks some experience, so he inevitably lacks tact. I have already
I have made a decree to promote your father to the position of Chief Salt Transport Envoy of the Capital."
Ji Ling was stunned.
Yin looked at her expression and paused. He was afraid that she was not familiar with these things, so he explained in detail: "This is all transferred to the Salt Transport Envoy Si Yunshi. He is responsible for the salt affairs. It is a good job. Although he is from
The civil service of the third rank can be advanced and retreated. Compared with the official position of the third rank, it is not eye-catching.
It's just that if you take this position, you will inevitably have to leave Beijing for a few years, but that's okay! I can stay for a few years before coming back, I have other plans."
He pondered for a while and said: "It is a good thing that elected officials are promoted very prominently. With your father's age, if you don't act fast, this will happen.
