Unparalleled Concubine

Li Xin didn't have the habit of worshiping gods, so he planned to kill the two chickens himself, without the Stove Lord.

Since he came to this world, the most unaccustomed thing is to eat. At the beginning, the charcoal seller was responsible for the meals. The old man only made some coarse grain cakes, or boiled batter and wild vegetables , in the first few days of his arrival, Li Xin was able to grit his teeth and eat it purely for survival.

Now that he has money, he naturally wants to improve his life.

The four chicken legs of the two chickens were chopped off by Li Xin, and then two eggs were beaten aside for later use. After the oil in the pot boiled, Li Xin rolled the chicken legs in the egg liquid, and then rolled them in the flour In a circle, and then began to fry in the frying pan.

The sound of crackling exploded in the kitchen.

The charcoal seller who was making a fire under the stove stretched out her head to glance at Li Xin, and then retracted her head again.

Although she didn't know what Li Xin was doing, after nearly a month of getting along, both of them, grandparents and grandchildren, already regarded Li Xin as a family member, especially after the charcoal seller fell ill, the little girl regarded Li Xin as a family member. It is their own reliance.

If it was in the past, when Li Xin poured half a pot of oil like this, the little girl would definitely be jumping in a hurry, but now no matter what Li Xin does, she will not question anything.

After a while, the chicken legs in the oil pan turned golden yellow. Li Xin picked them out with chopsticks, then coated them with egg wash and covered them with flour. fished out.

That's right, this is the fried chicken leg of the later generations. The only fly in the ointment is that there is no such thing as bread crumbs in this era, so the fried chicken leg is a bit different from the one of the later generations in appearance, but it is still roughly the same in terms of appearance. Pretty much the same, Li Xin grabbed one by himself and couldn't wait to take a bite.

Mmm, crispy texture.

The taste is roughly the same as the fried chicken drumsticks of later generations, especially after being sprinkled with pepper.

Li Xin nodded in satisfaction, and reached out to take care of the little girl who had been watching for a long time.

"Come on, it's done, come and taste it."

The little girl nodded, stepped forward to learn to remember, grabbed a chicken leg with her hand, and took a small bite.

Just when Li Xin was about to ask the little girl if the food was good, a familiar voice rang out in the yard.

"What delicious food do you want? You can smell it from afar."

Li Xin frowned slightly.

It's the Seventh Prince.

Li Xin frowned for a moment, then relaxed instantly, and then he squeezed a standard smile on his face, walked out of the kitchen, bent over to the seventh son and clasped his fists and said: "I'm Li Xin, have you met?" Seventh son."

The Seventh Prince smiled and helped Li Xin up, and then went into the kitchen on his own. After seeing the two remaining chicken legs next to the pot, the Seventh Prince of Jin's eyes lit up, and he directly took one. In his hand, he opened his mouth and took a bite, and said while chewing: "It smells so good, no wonder I smelled it in the yard. Fortunately, my son came in time, otherwise I would have missed such a delicacy."

At this time, the Seventh Prince's face was covered with oil, and he no longer had the image of a prince from the Tian Family.

A black line appeared on Li Xin's forehead.

This seventh son really doesn't regard himself as an outsider.

After eating two bites of the chicken leg, the Seventh Master exclaimed that it was delicious, and stretched out his hand to beckon to the kitchen door: "Xiao Jiu, come in quickly, there is still a chicken leg here, if you don't come in, it will be gone."

Li Xin looked up in astonishment, only to find a girl who looked about fifteen or sixteen years old was standing at the door of the kitchen. After the seventh son had finished speaking, the girl walked into the kitchen slowly and picked up the last chicken leg. …

Only now did he realize that the Seventh Young Master did not come alone.

This guy... he didn't even care about eating and taking food before, but this time he brought someone to eat!

Li Xin forced a smile, and asked the seventh son, "Young master, who is this?"

The seventh son waved his hand indifferently, and said with a soft smile: "This is the maid next to me. She has been with me for many years. She usually serves by my side and usually doesn't take her out of the house. This girl is more greedy. After eating the mutton skewers you made, I insisted on clamoring to come to see you, so I brought her here."

Li Xin nodded and said nothing.

This Seventh Young Master was able to sneak out of a proud building in the capital, which means that this person's methods in the city government have reached a certain level. No matter what a person does, he will not be aimless.

Because of Seventh Young Master's words of "maid", Li Xin didn't even dare to raise his head to see what this young girl looked like, but just slightly lowered his head and said: "Tomorrow will be a new year, and there should be many things to be busy at home, Young Master." Yes, how come you are free to come down here?"

"That's it."

Seventh Young Master took out a purple invitation card from his sleeve, handed it to Li Xin, and said with a smile: "Tomorrow, I will hold a banquet at home and invite many young people in Beijing to the banquet. You also shout, so that you can also get to know people."

Li Xin took the invitation with both hands, feeling a little uneasy in his heart.

Chapter 33 Wei Wang's Mansion

In the upper circle of power, it is unrealistic to hide at home alone if you want to enjoy yourself. You have to interact with people in this circle, or you have to have your own connections.

Besides, there is only another way, that is to be a lone minister, but being a lone minister requires the absolute trust of the emperor, it is not so easy to do, and not everyone can do it.

The current Li Xin belongs to the kind of person who has no contacts in the capital, and the invitation card handed over by the Seventh Prince is to share part of his contacts with Li Xin.

In a sense, this flimsy invitation is no less important than the deed that Cui Jiuniang handed over yesterday, and even more than [-]% of Deyilou.

Without any reason, Li Xin put this exquisitely crafted invitation into his sleeve, and then said with a soft smile, "Thank you, Your Highness, for your consideration. I will definitely attend the banquet on time tomorrow."

Rejecting Deyilou before, you can also refuse it by saying that you will not be paid for nothing, but if you reject this invitation again, it will not give the Seventh Prince face. Li Xin is not a person who does not know what is good or bad. In this situation, the Seventh Prince made a lot of effort.

The seventh prince, Ji Wen, smiled in satisfaction. He held the half-eaten fried chicken leg with one hand, and patted Li Xin on the shoulder with the other.

"Li Xin, you are very good."

In the entire capital, there are not many people who know how to advance and retreat, but this young man from Yongzhou in front of him not only knows how to advance and retreat, but also knows how to measure, which makes the seventh prince of Jin very satisfied.

As he spoke, he took another bite of the fried chicken leg that Li Xin made, and praised: "Also, your culinary skills are really good, and they are much better than those cooks in my family."

Having said that, the seventh prince glanced at Li Xin strangely, and asked, "It is said that your life was not very good when you were in Yongzhou. How did you make something that was either mutton or chicken?"

People in later generations have more or less misunderstood the living conditions in ancient times because of the TV series. In fact, because of the backward productivity, in most of the ancient times, the common people could not have enough to eat. When [-]% of the people have enough to eat, it will be a great prosperity.

As for those from poor families like Li Xin, except for some oily smell during the Chinese New Year, they often don't see meat or even fine grains throughout the year.

The Seventh Prince sent someone to understand Li Xin's situation in Yongzhou, so he was a little curious about the food Li Xin prepared.

Li Xin was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head and smiled and said, "I've never eaten pork, but I've always seen pigs run away. When I was in Yongzhou, I couldn't eat meat, so I kept thinking about what to do when I got rich." , After a long time, I figured out a few methods, but I didn't expect that His Highness liked it after they came out."

The Seventh Prince obviously didn't believe Li Xin's statement, but he didn't ask further. After all, everyone had some secrets in their hearts. He ate a chicken leg in a blink of an eye. Zhang Fangpa, after wiping his mouth, smiled at Li Xin and said, "You have to write down the method of chicken drumsticks for me later, and after returning home, I will let the servants at home learn to do it too. "

Li Xin nodded with a smile.

"I'll write it down to Your Highness later."

While the two were talking, Xiao Jiu, the girl who came with the Seventh Prince, also finished eating the fried chicken leg in her hand. She wiped her oily hands and mouth, and looked at the Seventh Prince with unsatisfied interest.

"Anymore?"

Her tone was a bit cheesy.

Only then did Li Xin sneak a glance at the Seventh Prince's maid, and saw that the girl was wearing a blue jacket, she looked about fifteen or sixteen years old, she was wearing a delicate bun with bangs hanging down, Underneath the black hair is a pair of big eyes, and the facial features are also very grand.

She is a standard beauty.
