It's Liao Zhai, not Cthulhu

But Jing Yesi's people refused, and said: "As the saying goes, boys and girls are the same, who said that women can't hold up half the sky? Gender discrimination is not allowed, gender confrontation is not allowed, and gender change is even worse. Change, after all, you have never asked the child what he thinks."

Thus Princess Yunluo was born.

Jing Yesi's status is transcendent. After all, most people would not be able to survive without it. Therefore, Jing Yesi's high-level officials dare to confront the high-level officials in the court, and also dare to challenge the four great families head-on. What the emperor did is not right for them. Dare to challenge.

Coincidentally, Guo Houcong ran into the palace to look for his father at this time,

Once this thing comes and goes, it will be done.

Although a few simple words can explain the development of the plot, it takes a lot of experience and a lot of supercilious eyes.

But Concubine Jia has always been by his side, which is also a kind of comfort.

And when he accompanied him to find his father in the early years, Concubine Jia was knocked on the head by bandits in order to protect him, so sometimes she was a little stupid.

Guo Houcong also promised not to marry other concubines because Concubine Jia sacrificed her life to protect him.

No matter how fat she becomes, he will not change her mind.

"Brother Huang! Brother Huang! I found a super delicious steamed stuffed bun shop outside the city. The owner there is a fairy, super powerful!" Coincidentally, Princess Yunluo was also playing with catching bugs in the garden. After arriving at Guo Houcong, Princess Yunluo shouted.

"It's super delicious and super powerful, you've been telling me all this time, forget it, can he make spicy soup?" Guo Houcong said helplessly.

He decided to check out the store.

-

On this day, the cook turned over the sign, and only the number one was left. He also continued to sit at the door and read the comic book.

An ordinary man walked up to him, he looked about thirty years old, with a beard, and he was wearing an ordinary literati gown, but he had an extraordinary bearing.

It was Guo Houcong who came.

Qin Yuelou took a quick look and knew that the visitor must be in a high position.

His complexion looks rosy, his palms are tender, only his fingertips are calloused, it must be because he has held the pen too much, maybe it is from reviewing memorials?

But Qin Yuelou didn't pay too much attention, instead, he continued to read the comic book on his own.

[There are a lot of masters buried around, including warriors and qi refiners. Their purpose is not to attack and kill, but to protect, which is a bit interesting. 】Although Qin Yuelou was reading the comic book, he was also analyzing it in his heart.

Then Guo Houcong passed by Qin Yuelou and went straight into the shop.

"This kind of fly restaurant on the side of the road, I really miss it." Guo Houcong thought in his heart, and just said, "Shop, is the shop there?"

"Well, what do you want to eat?" Qin Yuelou put away the comic book and asked.

"Do you only have three kinds of dishes in this small shop?"

"No, I can cook whatever you want to eat." Qin Yuelou looked at Guo Houcong and said, "What do you want to eat?"

"Spicy soup, I want to eat spicy soup." Guo Houcong said directly.

Qin Yuelou also relieved his half-dream and half-awake: "Then you sit outside, and I'll help you make a bowl of spicy soup."

Witnessing Guo Houcong's life through a dream, Qin Yuelou probably figured out what Lahutang is.

This so-called spicy soup is actually the same as the Hu spicy soup in the previous life.

A bowl of hot and spicy soup wakes up a city; although hot and spicy soup looks like a bowl of poor-looking paste, which can't even arouse your appetite, you can find that it tastes delicious, spicy and delicious after just one bite.

Especially in the twelfth lunar month of winter, when you wake up in the morning and drink a bowl of Hu spicy soup, it will be steaming and warm all over.

After carefully recalling the recipes he had seen, and based on Guo Houcong's drinking spicy soup in his dream, Qin Yuelou sorted the ingredients into the dishes.

Pepper, chili, grass fruit, beef cubes, bone broth, cornstarch, vermicelli, day lily, peanuts, fungus, tofu skin, thousand sheets and other ingredients are extremely fresh, and the umami taste is enhanced with kitchen utensils, and they are handled properly.

In addition, there are more than [-] Chinese herbal medicines.

Afterwards, Qin Yuelou began to concoct spicy soup.

-

Guo Houcong, who was sitting outside the store, was looking at the surrounding slums, feeling rather uncomfortable.

In the imperial city, at the foot of the emperor, there are still so many people who are struggling with food and clothing every day; it is the same in the imperial city, so what about other places?

What the emperor himself... is really incompetent.

He himself grew up among the people, so he is naturally aware of the sufferings of the people. He actually passed through the slums back then. For more than ten years, he thought that his governance was well-organized and the number of poor people would decrease, but in fact it was not the case.

The spicy smell wafted from the house, bringing back Guo Houcong's memories.

Since he was a child, his mother has been waiting for the man who will not come back, his father in the sense of blood, and he has been called a child without a father since he was a child. Fortunately, it is not a village, and there are no idlers and rogues to tease his family Mother.

But rumors are still flying everywhere,

But his mother has always taught him to be a kind and good person, and to study hard, so that he can become a high-ranking official in the future and benefit the common people.

Then it was not until her mother died that she left a jade pendant to Guo Houcong.

Perhaps for him, leaving this jade pendant is for him to find the father he has never met.

But to his dead father, this jade pendant is just a proof that he was promiscuous among the people.

This jade pendant is like a heart-shaped stone that is said to be hand-polished, but in fact, you can buy a bunch of it at a wholesale price of less than ten yuan.

But it is also because of this jade pendant that Guo Houcong can recognize his father and son who have no family affection.

Guo Houcong actually didn't expect his father to be the emperor, but he suddenly became a prince.

What his mother said [benefit the people of one side] has also become [benefit the people of the world].

After all, he came from the private sector, and he knows that the upward space of the poor students is monopolized by the aristocratic families, and he also knows how many dogs and officials are colluding with each other, and he knows that officials and businessmen collude with officials and officials to protect each other, and their brains are full of fat corpses.

After the death of his father, he felt that it was unreal, so he was kicked out and became the emperor. He thought that he could be a wise king, but at least he had such an idea, and he was working hard towards this goal .

It's just that there is too much resistance, and the aristocratic family has a close relationship with the important officials in the court.

To put it bluntly, if young people were given a choice, whether to be a son-in-law or a son-in-law of an aristocratic family, the young people would choose to be the son-in-law of an aristocratic family, so that they could see the status of the aristocratic family.

Most of the important ministers in the DPRK are related to the family.

It was a web of relationships, and he was like a bug struggling through a web of relationships.

Tired, weary, weary...

Being a responsible emperor without much ability is exhausting.

Recalling this, Qin Yuelou also put spicy soup in front of the emperor.

"This bowl of spicy soup, I put a lot of good ingredients for you, so instead of calling it spicy soup, it's better to call it Bazhen soup." Qin Yuelou wiped the edge of the bowl and said.

Guo Houcong looked at the big bowl in front of him, the "content" in the bowl was indeed quite rich.

Gluten, kelp shreds, vermicelli, thousands of shreds, peanuts, coriander, ginger, mustard; beef and mutton, soybeans, fungus, day lily, spinach, radish strips, green onion, etc.

Where is Bazhen?This has to be called "a gathering of heroes".

More than [-] kinds of herbs are boiled together with stewed meat, pepper, chili, pepper, star anise and broth. This bowl of Bazhen soup looks extremely dignified.

When you lift the spoon, you can feel a slight resistance. The soup is heavy and viscous, just like soup. After taking a sip, it is spicy and smooth, with endless aftertaste.

It's as if the spicy food is bursting on the tip of the tongue, and when you swallow it, it's like a ball of fire falling into the stomach. There is still a numbness in the throat, but it also stimulates the appetite.

Qin Yuelou took another stack of vinegar and put it in Guo Houcong's hand.

Guo Houcong also poured the vinegar into the bowl. When the vinegar was poured into the bowl, the speed of smudging was much slower. The sluggish one seemed to solidify in the soup, but with the stirring, the vinegar color evenly covered every part of the soup. part.

After drinking it again, chewing the rich content, this group of heroes gathers various tastes on the tip of the tongue.

The mustard and radish are crisp and refreshing, the peanuts and soybeans are distinct, the vermicelli is smooth, and the ginger is slightly spicy...

With the sour and spicy taste, it is very appetizing.

"Why is it so spicy?" Guo Houcong asked Qin Yuelou, sweating profusely from eating.

"It's pepper, I added pepper." Qin Yue said.

Ordinary ingredients are naturally plentiful, but every combination of Qin Yuelou is wonderful.

During this period of time, he also had one big dream after another, and also obtained many developed dream spells from the dream.

There is a spell that can make his index finger glow golden when he touches the dish, so that he can check the doneness of the dish through the gold finger.

There are spells that make his tongue the tongue of a god.

And there are spells that allow him to feel the molecules that make up the ingredients, and by changing the molecular parts through spells, ordinary food can have extraordinary abilities.

These freshened ingredients are only ordinary products after all, but...

When the molecular part is changed, the ingredients are also extremely delicious.

This Bazhen Soup doesn’t feel too much when you taste it at the beginning, but as you taste it one after another, it is equivalent to a kind of [accumulation]. When all the soup is drunk, this accumulation will reach its peak.

Finally, pop.

Guo Houcong licked the bowl clean, and the bowl and spoon were as clean as water.

"I feel like I'm going to explode." Guo Houcong left some nonsensical words.

Then the sweat poured down, and soon wet the clothes,

It's like walking out of a sauna room. It looks a little exhausted, but it is filled with positive emotions such as countless joys and joys.

Guo Houcong felt that the pressure and dark negative emotions accumulated in the body, as well as the bad personality, were all eliminated from the body with the sweat.

Refreshed and relieved.

He let out a long breath, extremely satisfied.

Qin Yuelou took out the cigarette case and handed Guo Houcong a hand-rolled cigarette.

"I smoked a cigarette before and after the meal, and I was as happy as a fairy when I smoked it." The cook handed it to Guo Houcong, and lit a fire for Guo Houcong. Guo Houcong protected the fire with his hands in a very good way.

This cigarette is also a trial product developed by Qin Yuelou with dream magic. Compared with ordinary cigarettes, this cigarette has no tar, nicotine, carbon dioxide and other substances harmful to the human body, and it is not addictive, let alone harmful to the human body. cause harm,

but,

But it can give people the same sense of satisfaction as when an old smoker takes the first puff of a cigarette after not smoking for a long time.

Don't ask what the reason is, the reason is that this is a dream spell.

The two looked at each other silently, just smoking a cigarette.

Then Guo Houcong asked Qin Yuelou a word.

"Are you interested in being in charge of the imperial dining room?"

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

"It's probably a beautiful thing to be in charge of the imperial dining room. I think it should be able to get in touch with excellent ingredients from all over the world." Qin Yuelou said.

"So you agree?" Guo Houcong's eyebrows were a little happy.

"But I refuse." Qin Yuelou folded his hands and made a [] gesture, "My favorite thing, Qin Yuelou, is to say no to those self-righteous people, not to mention, what's so good about the imperial chef? I want to be a chef."

"Why? Don't you want to be an imperial cook?" Guo Houcong had a strange expression upon hearing this.

"Whether it's the emperor or the so-called empress dowager, they don't care about the personalities of the cooks, they only care about the food they cook. If they don't go well, they will kill them, and they will be ruled by other people's unspoken rules. Bullying, I can't bear this kind of anger, forgive me, if I encounter this kind of thing, I will definitely only do what I like." Qin Yuelou glanced at Guo Houcong and said,

"As the emperor, you know a lot of things you don't know. If you don't believe it, you can disguise yourself and go see other places in the palace. Is there exploitation and oppression?"

"What do you mean? Why do you say it is exploitation and oppression?" Guo Houcong asked Qin Yuelou.

"Hearing is believing, seeing is believing." Qin Yuelou said, and he didn't care about Guo Houcong any more, but he still said, "Your Majesty, let me honor you as Your Majesty. You have been on the throne for more than ten years. Here, this world is not as good as you think, and even far worse than you think."

"Bold! Since you know it's the emperor, why do you dare to stand up and speak?!" The guard hiding in the dark protecting the emperor couldn't hold back anymore, jumped out and pointed at Qin Yuelou's nose, ready to start scolding.

But Qin Yuelou grabbed a small steamed bun and blocked his mouth.

Just as the guard wanted to scold, he chewed a mouthful, and his lips and teeth lingered in an instant.

Qin Yuelou flicked his fingers, and then said: "So you might as well use your eyes to see."

After finishing speaking, Qin Yuelou waved his hand, and the emperor and the guards returned to the palace in a half-dream and half-awake state.

And he looked into the distance.

There, something is wrong with latent dreams.

"I'm not crazy, Lao Ai, listen to me, there are a lot of crazy people in this world, I'm definitely not crazy, I just don't want to go out, I just don't want to be on the same side as Bi Keman It’s just a place.” The painter with a beard was skinny, sallow and thin, with sunken eye sockets, and the clothes on his body exuded a strong rancid smell and were stained with ink, even his face was the same.

The artist's small yard has also been neglected for a long time. It is full of fallen leaves and sundries, and there are many crumpled drawing papers.

"No, why do you say that?" Lao Ai asked the painter who was huddled in the corner of the courtyard.
