Rebirth: Phoenix Palm Nine Heavens

Chapter 124 A gift from King Su

Back at the General's Mansion, Xiao Jinse was not idle. If there was a flood in Jiangling like the previous life, the consequences would be really disastrous.

Thinking of this, Xiao Jinse summoned Luo Li and Luo Ying and asked them to take ten members of the Purple Guard to buy food in various places as merchants, and then store the food in the city near Jiangling. In case of disaster, Food can be sent right away.

The next day, Xiao Jinse stayed at the General's Mansion without going out. The weather was getting hotter and hotter, so it was better to feel more comfortable in the pavilion on the lake.

"Miss, why don't I find someone to build a platform on the lake? It would be cool to sit on the lake." Yun Shan said with a smile.

"Well, the weather is really hot. If we have a table, we can sit on the edge and play in the water." Xiao Jinse said with a smile.

"Okay, slave girl, let's talk to the housekeeper now." Yunshan smiled and walked away quickly.

After a moment, Yun Shu walked over quickly holding a brocade box, "Miss, this is the fruit sent to you by His Highness Prince Su. We have never seen it in Jingning City." After saying that, Yun Shu The lid of the brocade box is open.

Xiao Jinse looked at the fruits in the brocade box. Sure enough, they were all rare. "These are lychees from Lingnan. As soon as the red concubine laughed, no one knew they were lychees. Give some to my mother to try."

"Don't worry, Miss. The prince has sent two boxes, and one has been delivered to Madam's yard." Yun Shu said with a smile.

Xiao Jinse secretly thought that the food sent by King Su was more reliable as expected, knowing that she likes to eat sweets. And I also put ice cubes under these lychees to keep them fresh.

"Yunshu, you want to try it too." Xiao Jinse greeted.

In the pavilion, the master and servant were eating lychees and drinking herbal tea, living very comfortably.

"Miss, these lychees are so sweet and juicy. I'm afraid they are only available in the palace at this time."

"Perhaps, a lot of this fresh fruit is sent to the palace every year. If the queen mother, queen, concubine, prince, princess, and some clan members in the harem like it, then the local tribute will be more, and the manpower and material resources will be The consumption is even greater, not to mention the layers of exploitation by officials." Xiao Jinse sighed.

"Hey, miss, I don't know how many people's sweat this lychee carries."

"Fruit tribute from various places is a rule set by our ancestors and cannot be changed. Since those in power have enjoyed the wealth, they must make corresponding achievements to benefit the people. Leave some of these lychees for Yunshan, and then we will use the rest Come and try making wine." Xiao Jinse said calmly.

"Okay." Yun Shu smiled and went to the small kitchen to get a few jars and empty bowls.

The master and the servant opened the lychees one by one, removed the core, put the lychee meat in a jar, poured a jar of white wine, added some rock sugar, and sealed the jar.

"First bury it next to the wall in our yard. It should be enough to take it out in three to five days." Xiao Jinse said lightly.

"Miss, if we brew this lychee wine, we will have lychees to eat even in winter." Yun Shu said with a smile.

"That's right, it would be a good choice to use this lychee wine as a gift to give to others."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Yunshan, the housekeeper and a few boys coming to the lakeside of Jinxiu Garden to measure the size.

At that time, the shadow guard guarding Xiao Jinse was reporting work in the study of Prince Su's Mansion.

"What? She actually used lychees to make wine?" King Su said with a smile.

"Yes, Miss Fourth is really good at making wine. My subordinates can smell the aroma of wine in the dark."
