Palace Full of Delicacies

This seafood noodle is a kind of cold noodle. The chewy noodle is soaked in the sauce boiled in seafood broth. The surface is covered with cooked and sliced ​​shrimp meat and drizzled with a layer of sesame oil. It is delicious in color and fragrance.Originally, the cold noodles would be more refreshing with ice flakes, but considering that it was already autumn, Su Yu soaked the noodles in the hot spring for fear that the emperor would spoil his stomach.

His Majesty the Emperor accepted the jade bowl expressionlessly, and squatted down with Su Yu, but rejected the hot spring egg because it was "boiled in bath water".

Su Yu cracked the half-baked eggs, put them into the noodles and mixed them together.In his previous life, he wouldn't have dared to eat like this. Undercooked eggs still had a strong fishy smell, but this was in the ancient times when there was no pollution. The taste of eggs here was very pure, so it would be no problem to eat them raw.

An Hongche looked at the egg-mixed noodles in Su Yu's bowl with distaste, and finished his bowl in twos and twos, for fear that Su Yu would also mix the eggs into his noodles.

Su Yu blinked, is it so scary?

His Majesty the Emperor ignored him, took off his shoes and socks, and dipped his feet into the hot spring. The slightly hot water just touched the soles of his feet, which made him shrink back immediately, shake it quickly, and then tentatively stretched in.

Su Yu looked at the Yuzu soaked in, and then at the eggs that didn't look very good after being mixed, silently put the bowl in his hand aside, raised his hand and scooped up another bowl.

"This bowl is really interesting. Does King Jing like eating in hot springs?" Su Yu studied the bowl in his hand while eating the noodles.These are what he found in the tea room, each one is very small, about the size of a chopstick, carved from a kind of thin white jade, double-layer bowl, the middle is empty, and can float in the water.

Su Yu imagined that King Jing was a person who would enjoy himself very much. Soaking in the hot spring and letting the maid put delicious food in a bowl and slowly float it to his hand, it was really a fairy day.

An Hongche looked at the seven or eight white jade cups floating in the hot spring, raised his hand to pick one up, "This is a tea cup."

"Cough cough cough..." Su Yu choked.

"However, this is a good idea," His Majesty the Emperor turned the small bowl in his hand, "Take this set with you when you leave tomorrow." When you take a bath in the Arctic Palace, you can lie on the white jade bed and wait for the stupid The slave put crab sticks and small fish cakes into the bowl and floated over.

Su Yu: "..." Wouldn't plundering the prince's property casually cause a rebellion?

"From today onwards, you must not part a single step from me." The emperor said suddenly after eating five bowls of noodles and washing his hands in the hot spring.

The order received by those assassins was not to kill Su Yu, but to capture him alive.From the very beginning, when Mr. Yuan bought the farm, these people had been in ambush there, only waiting for the day when Su Yu would come, they would immediately catch him and send him to the hiding place prepared in advance.

I'm afraid some people have already known about the alien matter, but they don't know what that person is going to do when he captures Su Yu.

"Will I follow the emperor when he comes out?" Su Yu was stunned, and then his eyes lit up. In the past, Sauce was not allowed to follow him when he went to the toilet, so that his cat litter made of high-quality pearl powder was never used. Come in handy.

An Hongche slowly turned his head and looked at him silently.

"Haha, haha, just kidding," Su Yu laughed dryly, and stood up, "It's getting late, let's go into the room and sleep."

This stupid slave, I like the madman I already like... Wait, the stupid slave wants to follow me, do you want to see me... Well, it turns out that the stupid slave wants so much. As a good master, I will definitely satisfy him Oh...damn it, I didn't wear grease when I went out today...

His Majesty's ears were red, the expression on his face changed several times, and finally he was fixed on annoyance, he snorted coldly, looked up at Su Yu, and stretched out his hands towards him.

The loyal cat slave immediately squatted down courteously, asking the emperor to put his arms around his neck, a flash of white light flashed, the golden kitten hooked his skirt, shook its wet hind paws, and jumped onto his shoulder , stepped on a string of paw prints.

Su Yu didn't mind at all, he pulled his sleeves to wipe the uncle cat's hind paws, happily hugged the fur ball and went back to the house to sleep, and he didn't forget to take the set of white jade cups with him when he left.

Early the next morning, His Majesty the Emperor woke up with a face full of displeasure, and decided to exile the Governor of Kyoto for three thousand miles.

Seeing that Uncle Cat was not happy, Su Yu proposed to visit the morning market.

The eastern suburb is very close to the sea, and there will be a fish market in the morning, which is where Su Yu used to buy fish every day when he sold fish.I took the donkey back yesterday, and I can't help but feel nostalgic when I think of the days when one person and one cat depended on each other to sell skewers.You can't catch up with the morning, so why not go to the morning market to see what fresh ingredients are available.

After all, some inexpensive seafood are actually very delicious, and the palace will basically not buy these low-end things.

His Majesty the Emperor's expression softened a lot when he heard the words, and he immediately asked the assassin to be sent to the Xiaoqi camp to be handed over to King Su, who continued to track down the person behind the scenes, while he and Su Yu happily went to the morning market.

The capital city is said to be near the sea, but it is actually located in the Central Plains. It is just a very narrow and long bay split from the East China Sea, which goes directly into the inland, and at the end is the capital city.So the sea outside the capital looks more like a big river, the sea is far less wide than the real East China Sea, and the types of fish are not as diverse as the East China Sea, but it is worse than nothing.

In fact, whether it is about the art of war or Fengshui, the capital should not be located in such a place. The capital of the previous dynasty was not here, but in the hinterland of the Central Plains in the north.After settling down to conquer the world, the original plan was to set the capital at the East Sea, but after being strongly opposed by the ministers, they settled for the next best thing and set the current capital.

As for the reason, Su Yu didn't understand it before, but now he understands it thoroughly.

The morning market is on the stone beach near the wharf. Fresh fish, shrimp, sea crabs are placed randomly, fishermen and hawkers are haggling loudly, and people come and go, which is very lively.

It was the first time that His Majesty transformed into a human form and followed Su Yu to the fish market. It was very different from what he saw in his lapel, which made him feel very novel. He wanted to go and see what he saw.Su Yu had no choice but to hold his hand tightly to prevent the curious cat from getting lost.

"Tiaotiaoyu, Tiaotiaoyu!" Beside the stall selling sea prawns, there was a large basin covered with a layer of fine mesh, and something kept rushing upwards.

Su Yu heard the cries, and pulled the emperor towards him. Mudskippers, commonly known as jumping fish, are very difficult to catch. You have to use a few feet long line to cast them from a distance. In the era when Su Yu lived, this ancient skill was very difficult to catch. Almost lost, so delicious wild jumping fish is extremely rare.However, in the Da'an Dynasty, there were many fishermen who could catch jumping fish, so this thing was worthless.

Whether it is fried with salt and pepper or stewed with tofu, the taste of mudskipper is very good. This kind of fish palace will not buy it if it is not very good. It is expected that the emperor has never eaten it, so Su Yu is going to buy some.

Su Yu lowered his head to pick up the mudskipper, and His Majesty the Emperor stared at the lively sea shrimp next to him, clenched his hands hidden in his sleeves into fists, and tried his best to resist the urge to slap the shrimp back.

"My lord, why did you come here to buy the shrimp yourself?" Seeing that An Hongche was dressed in fine clothes, either rich or expensive, the shrimp seller looked at him eagerly, "Do you want to buy it for your wife or for your elders?" ?”

His Majesty the Emperor looked at Su Yu who was squatting on the ground, "Ma'am." Buy it for Madam, and ask Madam to make delicious food for her.

"Oh, Mrs. Zun is really lucky." The peddler smiled brightly.

Hearing what the peddler said, Su Yu raised his head to look at His Majesty the Emperor who agreed with him. He couldn't help but twitched his lips. He carried the jumping fish he had bought, and dragged the Emperor away. "The peddler.

His Majesty the Emperor is very proud, the stupid slave must be shy, even the shrimp seller can tell how good he is to the stupid slave.Well, if you use ointment tonight, the stupid slave will definitely cry.

The dead squid were arranged in an ugly row on the stone, and the squid seller was haggling loudly with the fisherman.

"No one bought this stuff before. Why do you ask for such a high price?" The hawker sells grilled squid skewers. A few months ago, this thing was like picking up for nothing. Ever since Su Yu's squid skewers became popular in the capital, squid Prices have also gone up, but never before.

"Ten cents a piece, whether you want to buy it or not," the fisherman was arrogant, and snatched the squid from the vendor's hand. "It's not easy to find things in the deep sea now. Tomorrow, it may be worth twelve cents."

"It's too expensive!" Not only the squid sellers, but also the fish sellers complained again and again.

"There are strange fish in the sea, and there are only so many of them in a day. If we don't raise the price, we will go to the northwest wind."

"The imperial court offered a bounty to fish monsters. Didn't the previous black haired fish return a lot of money?"

"I wish it was the black hairy fish..." Before the fisherman finished speaking, there was a sudden commotion on the beach over there.

"Come and see, this is the sea monster!" Someone shouted loudly, and everyone rushed over there after hearing the words.

The road on the stone beach was uneven, and the crowded crowd made Su Yu stagger and almost lost the fish in his hand.An Hongche hugged Su Yu into his arms, "I'm so stupid, I can't even walk well."

Su Yu looked at His Majesty the Emperor who was holding him tightly to his chest with an impatient face, blinked and said, "Let's go and have a look too."

His Majesty the Emperor glanced at the mass of black heads, categorically rejected Su Yu's proposal, dragged him away from the stone beach, and gestured to the guards hidden in the crowd.When the two returned to the other courtyard, the strange fish surrounded by the crowd had already been placed in the courtyard.

Su Yu leaned over curiously, "Be careful!" A black shadow suddenly sprang out from the water basin, the emperor quickly shot it down to the ground, and two guards rushed up to pick up the fainted fish. Return to the basin and cover with iron nets.

"Yingyu!" Sure enough, the "Mountain and River Illustrated Book" was not white-backed, and Su Yu recognized the true face of this thing at a glance.

This fish has a long body that is no different from ordinary sea fish, except that the two fins have been replaced with wings that are almost as long as the body, and there are hard silver feathers like scales on them.

"The body of a fish and the wings of a bird, the sound is like a mandarin duck..." Su Yu looked at Ying Yu, who had turned over for a while and gradually woke up, through the iron net, and looked up at the emperor, "What do you call a mandarin duck?"

Play Sha Ting in two or two, and it is long suspected that the painting will not be completed.The brocade machine competes for weaving samples, and the songs love to call names.The sound of mandarin ducks must be...

"Quack quack quack!" Ying Yu, unwilling to be lonely, immediately answered Su Yu's question.

Su Yu: "..." This cry is not romantic at all!

When Ying Yu was brought back to the palace, he had to show it to the Imperial Teacher first.

The national teacher quietly looked at the quacking Yingyu for a moment, then slowly raised his cold eyes to look at Su Yu: "Do you remember how Yingyu was slaughtered?"

"Yingyu can attract water disasters, and the water is cloudy. At noon, when the yang energy is at its strongest, use your inner strength to break off its wings..." Su Yu skillfully recited the killing method about Yingyu in "The Way of Killing Fish".

Look at the sky, it's already past noon, and you can't kill Yingyu today.

"Quack!" The escaped Yingyu mercilessly taunted the superstitious cook.

Su Yu scratched his head, "The minister will come back tomorrow."

"Wait a minute," the national teacher raised his hand and handed the cage containing the fish to Su Yu, "An Guo Pagoda is the sacred place of the country, so it's not appropriate to make noise."

Su Yu, who originally thought he had completed the mission, had no choice but to leave Anguo Tower with Yingyu.

"Quack quack quack..."

Yingyu was too noisy, Su Yu didn't understand, as a fish, how could it have so much to say.After thinking about it, he had to throw the fish and the cage in the small lake of Yexiao Palace. Anyway, he lived in the Arctic Palace at night, so he couldn't be bothered.

The author has something to say: Little Theater:

That night, people in the West Palace were panicked.

Yingyu: Quack!

Concubine A: What's the voice?Could it be that Xiao Cui's wronged soul came to look for me?

Yingyu: Quack quack!

Concubine B: What's the voice?Could it be that who is practicing witchcraft?

Yingyu: Quack quack quack!

Xiaoyu: It’s so noisy, I’ll eat fish tomorrow

Meow Gong: (Putting out fat cream) I will eat it tonight (⊙ω⊙)
