Gluttonous Crown Princess

The oily tofu stuffed meat is firmly on the table. Although it is not as steaming as it is just out of the pot, the delicious soup is completely immersed in the cracks and meat fillings of the oily tofu, making the tofu softer and more delicious. It's also getting richer and brighter, and it looks delicious.

Pei Yanlang said, "This dish is quite generous, and you can't finish a plate alone. Let's try it together."

Song Taifu and the others were waiting for the Prince's words, and they said in a hurry, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Of course, they still remembered the difference between monarchs and ministers, trying to hold back their eager hands, waiting for Pei Yan to eat first.

Pei Yan understood what they meant, and didn't hang them, but took a piece of chopsticks.

As soon as the stuffed bean curd was delivered to the mouth, the rich meaty fragrance pierced into the nose and half a bite gently, the full soup in the oily bean curd splashed between the lips and teeth, the bean skin was tender and the meat filling was delicious. …When he first saw this dish, he still thought it was a bit greasy, but after tasting it, he realized that it was not greasy, but also delicious and refreshing.

His eating is very gentle, and after taking a bite slowly, he praised, "The taste is very good."

Taifu Song and the others said that if your Highness said it was good, it would definitely be very good! Now that His Royal Highness has eaten it, they can finally stretch out their chopsticks.

For a while, the other six pairs of chopsticks stretched out on the table, and the speed was almost out of shadow. You chopsticks, I chopsticks, the kung fu plate in the blink of an eye is more than half empty.

"This is too delicious, don't say this tofu meat, just this soup, I can eat a big bowl of rice!"

"Yeah, it tastes really good. I didn't expect tofu to have this way. The aroma of tofu and the aroma of meat complement each other!"

"Oh, it's a pity that it's less, and it's not enough to eat. I thought it would relieve gluttony after eating it, but after having tasted it, it became more greedy..."

"I see that this method is not difficult? Cut a hole in the fried tofu, stuff it with some meat, and simmer it together? Or go back and let the chef in the house try to make it."

Listening to the comments of several colleagues, Song Taifu stroked his beard and said, "This dish looks simple, but it actually contains a lot of ingenuity. With this filling alone, the old man has tasted several ingredients..."

Speaking of this, he smiled and looked at Taibao Min, "Wen Zhong, your tongue has always been sharp, but what is in this filling?"

Taibao Min shook his head and said, "Well, there are water chestnuts, sesame mushrooms, lotus seeds, and... Hi, I only ate one. I will only taste these. I will try again after I pick up a piece of chopsticks." One of the few yong tofu on the plate.

Taifu Song was startled, turned his face to complain to the prince, shook his head and smiled, "His Royal Highness, look at this old fellow, just say it if you want to eat, and make this excuse."

Pei Yan also laughed, "Let's see if the Taibao can taste the other ingredients. If he can't taste it, he will be punished not to eat it anymore."

Min Taibao tasted the second one. He didn't panic when he heard the Prince's words. The wrinkled orange-skinned old face showed a rather contented smile, "There are also lilies, taro and water chestnut."

Taifu Song immediately answered, "I don't know if what you said is right or wrong, I will taste one piece and savor one piece carefully." As he said, his chopsticks also stretched out.

When the other officials saw this, they were all dumbfounded, and the atmosphere on the table suddenly became cheerful.

Pei Yan rarely saw the appearance of the two elders, and put three pieces in his bowl, and let them divide the rest.

Song Taifu and Min Taibao ate the most, and the rest of the important ministers all tried their hand at hand speed.

Those who grab it are in a good mood and triumphantly, while those who haven't grabbed it stare at the empty plate with a sad face, thinking that these old **** look at the gentleman on weekdays, and they didn't expect the speed of grabbing food so fast!

Compared to their complaints, the little officials at the tables next to them are heartbroken—

Sitting at the main table can taste a piece, they can't even taste it, they can only smell the fragrance and cry! What a tragedy this is!

In the meantime, several young officials with ambitions silently grabbed the rice in front of them, but secretly vowed in their hearts that they would work hard, be promoted and raise their salaries, contribute more to the East Palace, and strive to be able to eat at the main table in their lifetime. !

…

Besides, after Pei Yan simply used lunch, he took a step first and went to the side hall.

Fu Xirui offered a cup of scented snow and green on the top, Linglong stood under her head, respectfully, and truthfully reported the situation of Yaoguang Hall.

When the princess and Xu Wenchan talked happily and the atmosphere was harmonious, the corners of Pei Yan's lips rose slightly.

Speaking of the princess personally cooking a bunch of delicious foods for Xu Wenchan, Pei Yan didn't particularly care.

Speaking of Xu Wenchan's invitation to the Princess to go to Zui Xianju, the arc of Pei Yan's mouth slowly fell, his eyes sharpened suddenly, and his voice became cold, "Dui Xianju?"

Linglong said, "Yes, what else did she say that Nongyu is good at playing flutes and playing the piano, clean and beautiful, beautiful and beautiful..."

Halfway through, Linglong, who had been hanging her head, vaguely felt that the atmosphere was not right. When she quietly raised her eyes, she saw Pei Yan's deep eyes staring at her. Although the corners of her mouth were still smiling, her whole body was cold and overcast. Compassionate makes people fearful.

Linglong's throat tightened and said dryly, "His Royal Highness, but what did the servant say wrong?"

Pei Yan slowly lowered his head, playing with the exquisite white porcelain teacup carelessly, pondering for a moment, and then faintly said, "What is the reaction of the princess?"

Linglong's eyebrows jumped, and said cautiously, "Prince Princess...very interested."

Seeing that the smile on Pei Yan’s lips became colder, and Linglong’s palm was sweating, she wondered: Is it possible that the prince would not want the prince to go to the market to play?

In silence, she tried to explain to the princess, “I want to come to the princess and grew up in a deep boudoir since she was a child, so she was a little curious about the restaurant musicians outside.”

"Restaurant? Musician?"

Pei Yan's delicate and distinct fingers rubbed the wall of the cup, his beautiful peach eyes narrowed slightly, his eyes were thick as ink, and his voice was deep, "Zhenbeihou really has a good daughter."

He also heard before that it was the stupid, vulgar, willful, and arrogant daughter raised by Zhenbeihou’s daughter, and that the noble ladies in Beijing did not want to associate with her. Now, it seems that the rumors are not groundless...Which girl who knows how to be a courteous and obedient girl will ask a married woman to go to a place like Zui Xianju to play?

His prince has become a little behaved, if he is broken by Xu Wenchan again...no!

Pei Yan sullen his face and whispered "Linglong" in a low voice.

Linglong responded immediately, in a state of preparation awaiting orders.

But she waited for a while, but she didn't hear another sound from above. Just as she was hesitating to ask if she wanted to ask, the golden and cold voice suddenly sounded, "Fine."

exquisite,"…?"

"You go back first, and talk to the princess by the way. I will go to her for dinner tonight."

"Slaves obey orders." Linglong bent down and backed down.

After leaving the hall, Linglong couldn't help but twist her two willow eyebrows. The princess was only going to a restaurant. Why was His Royal Highness so unhappy? Didn't he still say that he would take the princess to the restaurant? It's really strange.

She walked out wonderingly. Before she took two steps, she saw Zhanping coming with her sword on her back. Linglong hurriedly bowed, "Master Zhan is blessed."

Seeing her frowning, Zhanping rolled her eyes and whispered, "Girl Linglong is going back to Yaoguang Hall?"

Linglong nodded, "Yes, the slave and maidservant delivered a dish to His Royal Highness at the order of the prince."

Zhanping said, "Giving food, this is a good thing, why is Miss Linglong a little annoyed looking at it? Could it be that there is a problem with the food delivered by the princess, which has caused trouble to your Royal Highness?"

"...?" Linglong frowned deeper, what's the mess.

Seeing that Linglong didn't speak, Zhanping suddenly felt angry when she guessed right, "I'll just say that she was pretending to be a virtuous and virtuous Shude. It only took a few days before the fox's tail was exposed. Here it is..."

"Master Zhan!" Linglong interrupted him directly, with a pair of dark eyes staring at him, "Please pay attention to your words, not to mention that the prince did not cause trouble to your Highness, even if she really caused something, she is also from the East Palace. Princess, it’s not your turn to blame."

As she said, she snorted irritably, stopped flattening, and walked straight away.

Flattened, raised his hand and scratched the back of his head, muttered "inexplicable", and continued to walk forward.

It just so happened that the officials of the East Palace also ran out of lunch.

"The fried tofu stuffed meat made by the princess looks so good. Just smelling the scent makes people unbearable. I don't know how much I swallowed, and I don't know what it tastes like in my mouth..."

"It smells so good, and it must be more delicious! Didn't you see Song Taifu and they couldn't stop eating with chopsticks?"

"That's the same thing. If it weren't for your Highness to sit down, they would be fighting for the last piece of tofu stuffed meat, hahaha. Having said that, I didn't expect the princess to have such a craft, and my Highness would have a blessing in the future!"

Listening to their conversation, Zhanping couldn't help but stepped forward and asked, "Hello fellow officials, what are you talking about, so lively?"

"We are talking about the culinary skills of the princess." An official said, "the princess gave her a very delicious dish. Hey, it's a pity that you came here, Master Zhan, otherwise you can also taste a piece. "

The color of the exhibition surface became stiff, and I wanted to say "who is rare", but the officials in front of me were full of praise, so I had to squeeze a sentence from my throat with difficulty, "That... is indeed a pity."

The official next to him comforted, "It's okay, Your Royal Highness always values ​​you, I have a chance next time."

Zhanping awkwardly twitched the corners of his mouth, and within two steps, he saw Song Taifu and Min Taibao's group of senior officials in purple and red coming out with a smile, and what they said was stuffed with tofu and meat.

Just one dish, why is this?

Flattening the little head is filled with big doubts, is it possible that the crown princess would have some witchcraft? Otherwise, why would everyone in the East Palace praise her in just one month?

...

At first, Pei Yan was going to give an order not to allow Wen Chan to come to the East Palace again. But then I thought about it, if Tao Ti knew about it, and therefore had a grudge with him, it would be worthless.

No matter, if she does go out of the palace, he will send someone to keep an eye on it.

Or, if she fancyed a bitch, he interrupted all three of that person's legs to see who else would dare to receive her without fear of death.

With a countermeasure in his mind, Pei Yan's face turned a little, Shi Shiran stood up and strode out, "Go to Chongwenguan."

Fu Xirui hurriedly followed, and from the corner of her eyes glanced at the table inadvertently, her pupils trembled suddenly—

I saw the porcelain cup that the prince had just played with, broken into four petals like a flower in full bloom, silently announcing how much displeasure it had just endured.

...

"Ati, have you ever thought about what you will do after the prince is gone? Can you still marry again?"

In the Yaoguang Hall, after eating and drinking, the two little sisters lay on the couch and digested like two salted fish.

There is no incense in the hall, but Tao Ti flushed a pot of rose honey water, so the air was filled with a faint rose fragrance, this moist fragrance invisibly made the afternoon leisure time long and gentle.

"He said that before he leaves, he will give me a letter and leave the book, and set me free."

"Wow, it's true?!" Xu Wenchan struck a fat fish, staring at Tao Ti with wide apricot eyes, "His Royal Highness also told you this kind of thing..."

"Well, I said it the night of the wedding."

"Then he is really not taboo." Xu Wenchan smacked his tongue. "My mother, I don't hear our brothers and sisters talking about death the most, but whenever a word of death is mentioned, she will definitely lick us."

Tao Ti took a sip of the tea with a soft voice, "Human nature longs for survival. He looks at death calmly and accepts death indifferently. The bitterness and pain involved in it are incomprehensible to ordinary people. Your Highness is very kind. , A very gentle person, maybe he had guessed that it would be such a result in these years of sickness, so he can accept it so calmly."

Xu Wenchan never thought about those profound truths. Tao Ti seemed to understand what she said. She tried to understand the unsuccessful results, so she didn't think about it. Instead, she stared at her friend's face and sighed—

Ati looks really good-looking, this makeup suits her, and her hair bun also suits her. She is dressed so plain, but she's so bright that she can't move her eyes.

After a while, she regained her senses, and then turned back to the question she started, "It would be even better if there is peace with Li Shu, and then it doesn't matter if you marry again."

Tao Ti's slender eyelashes trembled slightly, Bai Nen fingers pinched a slender silver spoon, gently stirred the petals deposited in the rose tea, and whispered, "I shouldn't marry again."

Xu Wenchan was stunned, "Are you going to keep a festival for the prince?"

"Of course not." Tao Ti raised his eyebrows, asking whether there is a man in this world who can let me Tao Ti keep the festival for him? does not exist!

She is the most favored young man of the gluttonous family. She has a long and boundless life span to enjoy. There are many foods waiting for her to eat, and there are countless wonderful things waiting for her to experience...

Whether it is the princess of the Great Yuan Dynasty in this life, or the modern sacred beast, she should not be caught by a man!

Tao Ti said, "If you have time to spend on men, it's better to figure out what to eat for the next meal."

Xu Wenchan blinked, suddenly, with a stunned expression, "That's right! It's so tiring to be a mistress when you marry someone. You have to serve your in-laws, and you have to have children at the bottom. If you come with some uncomfortable sister-in-laws and elders. Stuns, uncles, concubines, communal rooms, etc., but they are troublesome... It's not over yet, besides these, you have to manage the housework. Ouch, it's annoying to think about it."

Tao Ti, "..." Is this an ancient version of a girl who fears marriage?

The two chatted in a whisper, time flies quickly, and when the sun slanted westward and the light diminished, Xu Wenchan should also leave.

Before leaving, Xu Wenchan held Tao Ti's hand with tears in his eyes, and his affectionate look with a distraught expression gave Tao Ti the illusion of being in a Qiong Yao drama.

"Ati, I will come to play with you next time."

"Okay. I packed some candied fruit for you, including honey kumquats, snow hawthorn balls, and dried apricots. I also packed a portion of pork and egg yolk crisps, and some oily tofu. You take them back and make them. Stuffed meat or stewed meat directly, either."

Seeing the big and small bags, Xu Wenchan was so touched that she couldn't speak. She came to the East Palace to eat and drink, and took so many things back. Ati was so sweet.

The book says that it is not impolite to come and go.

Ati is so good to herself, she has to give her a gift in return!

On the carriage on the return journey, Xu Wenchan seldom moved her little head, thinking and thinking, thinking and thinking, suddenly blessed to the heart and got an idea.

When she returned to Zhenbei Hou Mansion, she ran to her boudoir with her small fat legs, holding the small vault, calculating how much it would cost to buy two adjacent houses in Chongrenfang.

But I don’t seem to have enough money for this?

She was holding on to her cheeks, thinking that the house can't be bought, so let's find out how much Zui Xianju's top-brand young man costs for a month!

—

Because Pei Yan would come for dinner at night, Tao Ti ordered three more pieces of tofu from the dining room.

The people in the palace thought she was making oily tofu and stuffed meat again, but she did not expect that she made three dishes with three pieces of tofu, the crispy fried tofu, the spicy and red mapo tofu, and the light and tender. Vance Tofu Soup.

When Pei Yan came, when he saw these dishes, he raised his thick eyebrows and smiled lightly, "Is there a tofu feast tonight?"

Tao Ti smiled and said, "I was a bit lazy today, so I just made some simple things at will. Your Highness, don't dislike it."

Pei Yan's eyes were full of moonlight, and his voice was clear, "You made it in the underground kitchen. It's too late for Lonely Joy. How can you dislike it."

His voice is very nice, gentle and gentle, with a somewhat inadvertent sloppyness, like a feather brushing his ears, itchy.

This is probably the kind of voice that can make ears pregnant, Tao Ti thought, and sat down on her own, "Shall we eat? You can drink more of this tofu soup, which is light and smooth, and has the effect of nourishing weakness and nourishing the body. ."

Tonic...?

Pei Yanchang's long eyelashes cast a shadow. He didn't say anything, and didn't try the soup right away. Instead, he caught a piece of crispy fried tofu.

The fried tofu is golden brown and crispy, dipped in the carefully prepared sauce, and after a bite, it immediately makes a crackling sound. The skin with the sauce is spicy and fragrant, but the inside is very tender, and there is no smell of bey, on the contrary, it is salty and fresh, which makes people want to eat the second one after eating one piece.

Tao Ti saw that he was eating fried tofu, but didn't think too much. She scooped out a bowl of Vance Tofu Soup and placed it next to it to cool off. She also took several spoonfuls of Mapo Tofu and mixed it with rice.

She used to live in Chengdu for half a year. Whenever she had time, she went to the fly restaurants hidden everywhere. Mapo tofu is one of her favorite Sichuan dishes. As long as there is a bowl of Mapo tofu, she can kill three bowls of rice!

Looking at the red and spicy tofu in front of her eyes, Tao Ti's appetite was very appetizing. After fully mixing the sauce-scented tofu with the crystal clear and plump white rice, she took the spoon and took a bite after bite, eating happily and satisfyingly. .

Pei Yan raised his eyes and looked at her enjoyment, with the corners of her lips curling slightly.

After a while, he turned his face slightly, his eyes finally fell on the bowl of soup, which she personally served him.

Slender and fair hands took the bowl of soup and took a sip.

The soup base is very clear and you can clearly see the ingredients inside. Cut into shreds of tofu, shredded ham, shredded mushrooms, shredded spring bamboo shoots, and shredded chicken. The roots are distinct. No extra seasoning is needed. The food is authentic. The delicious taste is amazing enough.

"Very good, the knife is good, the heat is good, and the taste is better." Pei Yan said.

"Then you can drink more. Can't you not eat spicy food? This soup is specially made for you." Tao Ti has already eaten half a bowl of rice now, her lips are numb and spicy, and her lips are slightly red and swollen.

"You drink some too, don't be spicy." Pei Yan said.

When Linglong, who was waiting on the side, heard this, she was about to step forward and help the princess to scoop soup, but saw the princess stretch out her hand, and personally scoop a bowl for the princess, "Here."

Tao Ti didn't think there was anything wrong, so he thanked him and took a big sip of the spicy flavor.

The two of them ate and chatted, about the oily tofu stuffed with meat at noon, and how she got along with Xu Wenchan.

When Pei Yan saw her mentioning Xu Wenchan, his eyebrows and eyes were full of leisurely and happy expressions, and the fingers holding the soup ladle tightened calmly.

After pondering for a while, he asked abruptly, "Have you considered a life after leaving the palace?"

Tao Ti was startled, "..."

What's going on today, one or two of them ask these questions.

She slowly raised her head, her eyebrows frowned slightly, and her eyes seemed to be a little moist and misty, like a misty and rainy Jiangnan landscape.

Seeing that Pei Yan seemed to ask casually, she also replied easily, "I have a lot of dowry, enough for me to lie down and do nothing, eating, drinking and having fun for a lifetime."

After saying this, Tao Ti vaguely realized something. Was he worried that after he died, he would be lost, that's why he asked?

Alas, Little Angel Pei Yan is too considerate of others, and it's not good to think about this kind of pessimistic thing all day long.

Tao Ti opened a pair of shiny black eyes and looked at him seriously, "His Royal Highness, I can live a good life alone, don't worry, be optimistic!"

Pei Yan, "..."

After a while, his gentle and delicate eyebrows showed a smile, "Yes."

He didn't worry at all, he wouldn't let her be alone.

...

Before going to bed, Pei Yan explained that the day was just free and could take her out of the palace for a stroll.

Tao Ti was very happy and was busy responding.

Perhaps because of a good mood, she also had a good night's dream.

In my dream, there is a huge Christmas tree. What hangs on the tree is not gifts, but a variety of foods, such as chicken drumsticks, grilled sausages, hamburgers, braised pork knuckles, spicy sauces, pancakes with fruits, beef hot pot...there is a dazzling array of everything.

The more the food is, the more abundant the food, she crawls along the trunk, touching the food into her arms, and stuffing her mouth...

Pei Yan’s sleep has always been very shallow, and she would wake up with a little movement, not to mention such a soft little girl pulling on him, two little hands casually touching his chest, Yan Hong’s little mouth was still touching, and she wanted to eat him. A clean look.

Her body is close to him, with only a thin layer of fabric between her skin, he can clearly feel her graceful and undulating curves, and her warm body temperature...

Seeing her little hands still rubbing restlessly, Pei Yan's throat moved slightly, and her dark eyes became deeper and deeper.

Suddenly, he stretched out his hand and squeezed her slender wrist.
