An Lingrong's Rebirth: The Lock of Qingqiu
Chapter 57 Making Incense
The warm sunshine reflected on the silk thread specially used for embroidery. An Lingrong looked at it, and felt strange and gentle in his heart.
Among the many flowers, she liked lilies the most. Lin Xiu taught her embroidery for the first time, and she embroidered lilies.
Lin Xiu said that a woman should be a lily, pure and fresh.
No matter how the aunts in the An family treat my mother, no matter how my father An Bihuai treats my mother, in my heart, my mother is just a lily, blooming in my heart.
Who doesn’t have a lily embedded in his heart?
The lily in the Emperor's heart is Queen Chunyuan. Queen Chunyuan is noble, elegant, pure and selfless.
However, lily symbolizes purity and also symbolizes misfortune.
Legend has it that the ancient king was cursed by the gods and turned into a flower. This flower was a lily.
It was only later that it was extended and translated into a symbol of good luck, happiness and prosperity.
Like a pure element, it is mysterious, romantic, admirable, beautiful and magical.
The sunshine faded away bit by bit, and An Lingrong fell into cold and gray darkness again.
She narrowed her eyes slightly, put away the embroidery cloth, and tinkered with the spices.
The spices she is going to make today are similar to the fragrant powder used by Concubine Hua. Concubine Hua uses "Qi Gong Qiao".
The fragrant powder specially given to her by the emperor was unique in the harem. In order to show her superiority, Concubine Hua smeared it on her body every day.
When meeting the queen, in the queen's Jingren Palace, as long as Concubine Hua is present, the fragrance will overflow.
She had smelled it carefully countless times. It contained agarwood, cloves, cinnamon, cardamom, licorice, fennel, etc. The weakest one even contained a hint of musk.
It was not enough for the emperor to add musk to the Huanyi incense that was given to Concubine Hua to help her fall asleep. Just in case, he also added musk to Qigongqiao and asked Concubine Hua to apply it every day.
An Lingrong carefully ground several spices into powder, added some sweet-scented osmanthus and other floral materials, and a little lemon to dilute the original strong fragrance of Qigongqiao.
Then, the ground powder is combined together in a certain proportion and put into a sealed container to prevent the loss of aroma.
Still missing a fennel.
An Lingrong put down the pots and pans in his hands and went to the dining room, where Bao Juan was cooking duck.
This duck is distributed by the palace every month according to the quota. The little stool has just been slaughtered, cleaned, cut into pieces and put on the pot.
"Baojuan, where is the jar of fennel in my room? Did you take it away?" An Lingrong asked.
"Little Master, we have used up the fennel. We have just mixed it with other ingredients. When the duck is cooked, apply it on the skin. Once the duck is cooked, roast it until it is charred on the outside and tender on the inside. It will be fragrant." Juan said happily.
An Lingrong looked quickly and found only an empty bottle standing upside down. In a bowl next to it, fennel had been contaminated with other things and covered the surface of the condiment.
She sighed and said, "Baojuan, that's what I use to make incense. Why did I use it to cook the duck?"
Baojuan said quickly: "My little master, it's the little stool that holds it. If you want to punish him, punish him."
Little Stool said aggrievedly: "Little Master, I only know that this fennel is used as an ingredient. I didn't expect it to have other uses."
An Lingrong said helplessly: "Forget it, it's okay. You can just go about your business."
All the incense was ready, but there was still one fennel missing, so An Lingrong asked Qin Sanyue to get some more.
"Little Master, I got what you asked for." Qin Sanyue handed the fennel to An Lingrong and entered the palace happily.
What happy thing happened?
After living in the palace, Qin Sanyue no longer had the reserve and weakness unique to women.
She raised a smile and said, "Little Master, I bumped into Huang Guiquan today."
An Lingrong asked: "What happened to him?"
Qin Sanyue said in surprise: "Little Master, how did you know?"
There's no point in guessing, seeing how happy you are.
Qin Sanyue went to collect the spices alone. Huang Guiquan happened to be there, and not many people came to collect the spices.
Huang Guiquan, who had ignored Qin Sanyue in the past, unexpectedly struck up a conversation with her today.
Huang Guiquan asked about Empress Hui's pregnancy and asked Wan Chang about the trivial matters in the palace.
Qin Sanyue clearly received a box of spices, and Huang Guiquan gave her three boxes. This was to please her and try to get something useful out of her mouth.
But no matter what Huang Guiquan asked, Qin Sanyue always asked questions without knowing anything.
At this time, Huanbi happened to come to pick up the materials, and Huang Guiquan was also very flattering to Huanbi.
Huang Guiquan got close to Huan Bi, and even stretched out his hand to tentatively get closer to Huan Bi.
Huanbi glared angrily and snorted calmly.
Just in time, Songzhi who came to collect the materials saw him, and Huang Guiquan was frightened out of his soul.
Huang Guiquan, who was frightened, put on a smile the whole time.
Qin Sanyue said that he felt very happy!
What kind of medicine is sold in Huangguiquan Gourd? What they are selling will definitely not be good medicine!
Huang Guiquan had an affair with Xin Changzai, and Xin Changzai pushed down Hui Guiren on the rockery last time.
In order to avenge Hui Guiren, Huanbi and Qin Sanyue grabbed Xin Wanzai again and made her fall from the same rockery.
Xin Changzai was beaten with a black nose and a swollen face, and he retaliated with tooth for tooth.
Huang Guiquan would definitely be unkind if he started talking to Huanbi and Qin Sanyue at this time.
An Lingrong carefully reminded Qin Sanyue and told her not to be fooled by Huang Guiquan.
Qin Sanyue is not someone to be trifled with. She is no longer what she used to be. If she fights alone, Huang Guiquan will definitely not be her opponent.
An Lingrong said carefully: "In March, in this palace, it is better to do less than to do more. Force is used for self-defense, not to instigate trouble. However, as long as Huang Guiquan conflicts with you, even if it is with Huanbi, , you can take action against Huang Guiquan, and when dealing with villains and villains, on the premise of protecting yourself, you must be bold and ruthless in your methods!"
Qin Sanyue solemnly said: "I will keep it in my heart for March. Thank you for your teachings, master."
An Lingrong ground the fennel that Qin Sanyue brought back carefully, dipped some of it into his mouth and tasted it again and again.
There is nothing wrong with it being real fennel, and it is not adulterated or old.
An Lingrong gathered the fennel and other spices together, added a few drops of clear oil, stirred carefully, and then resealed it into the jar. After a few days, it would be ready for use.
After she put away the spices, she heard Baojuan calling everyone to eat "crispy roast duck".
This is the first time Baojuan has made "Crispy Roast Duck" and it was quite successful.
In Cuihe Hall, when no one else was around, An Lingrong specifically told everyone not to eat with the ceremony.
Forgetting etiquette makes me feel more comfortable.
An Lingrong sat at the table, waited for Baojuan to bring the rice, bowls and chopsticks to him, then washed his hands in hot water and went into battle himself.
A big fat duck weighing seven to eight pounds was eaten completely by five people in the palace: a eunuch, three maids, and a mistress.
Today, An Lingrong discovered that the slaves raised in Cuihe Palace are all very good at eating~
