spring and autumn officials

Prince Lin, the eldest grandson of King Ping of Zhou, was intelligent, beautiful and good at riding and shooting when he was young.

In other words, the eldest grandson of King Zhou Ping has been smart since he was a child, and he is handsome and has a lot of kung fu.

Prince Lin is in the royal family of Zhou, and he is orthodox in the royal family, which is different from his father.Prince Lin's father was sick. He had been ill for a few years, and before King Zhou Ping died, Prince Lin's father died of illness.

King Zhou Ping originally had high hopes for his eldest son, but King Zhou Ping reigned for 51 years, and his son died.After the death of the eldest son, whether to make the second son Hu the prince or the eldest grandson Lin became the biggest problem in the court.

Both the second son fox and the eldest grandson Lin have their own supporters. The doctor Qing who supports the second son fox believes that although the second son is not the son of King Ping of Zhou, he is born in an orderly manner, and his uncle is still alive. How can he make the eldest son the crown prince? reason?The reason why the Western Zhou Dynasty collapsed and the Eastern Zhou Dynasty rose was not precisely because Zhou Youwang favored Baosi and wanted to abolish the elders and establish the younger ones, which led to great chaos in the country?Such a lesson, the royal family of Zhou cannot learn it a second time.

However, Doctor Qing, who supported the eldest grandson Lin as the crown prince, believed that although the second son Hu was an elder, he behaved inappropriately, was obsessed with beauty, was mediocre, had no achievements, and was indecisive by nature. Big taboo!On the other hand, Changsun Lin, who is orthodox and upright, is unmatched in both appearance and upbringing. He is kind and upright by nature, and can be sympathetic to the people. He is definitely the choice of a wise king.

Just when the parties of the royal family of Zhou were vying for the crown prince, King Ping of Zhou finally made up his mind to send his second son, Hu, to Zheng Guo as a hostage, and made the eldest grandson the crown prince, Prince Lin.

King Zhou Ping's approach can be said to be ruthless, and it can't be said that he is not poisonous. He directly sent the second son fox to the state of Zheng, which can be said to have cut off the second son fox's back road. In this way, Prince Lin became famous. Right and smooth.

Prince Lin was born noble, and he is an orthodox direct relative. He received etiquette education since he was a child. There is only one thing that is omnipotent, which made Zhou Ping Wang still depressed when he was seriously ill and could not be at peace.

That is Prince Lin's life, even the competition for the position of prince was settled by King Zhou Ping as his father and grandfather. He has never encountered any setbacks. Praise by others, admiration by court ladies, and support by court officials, all of these things have cultivated Prince Lin to be too upright. In his eyes, it seems that there are no villains who are heinous.

How can an upright person sit in the dark court of the Zhou Dynasty, control the world, resist Rong and Di, and check and balance the princes...

The little dog... Prince Lin stared at Qi Lv with staring eyes. His eyes could not be described as being majestic or stern, but through the naive appearance of the little dog, it was completely filtered out. All majesty is gone, only the poor boy is left.

Qi Lu's appearance is very deceptive. When he is not smiling, he is cold and arrogant, like a fairy who does not eat the fireworks of the world. When he smiles, he is gentle and easy-going, with a kind of indescribable The friendly temperament makes people forget the vulgarity, but Qi Lu's actions...

It's so vulgar!

Relying on his "tall" stature, Qi Lu picked up the little dirt dog, pulled the little dirt dog's five-stage calf, and raised an inquiring smile: "Good boy, it really is a son."

Prince Lin was stunned, and then he realized that this madman in front of him dared to be so disrespectful, peeping... Peeping into the private place of the widow!

"Wow... woof woof! woof woof woof woof woof!"

Prince Lin: Let go... let go!The widow will punish you for being disrespectful!

The little dog was held in Qi Lu's arms, and it turned into a little mad dog, barking non-stop, pawing its limbs and short legs, trying to break free from Qi Lu's embrace.

Qi Lu chuckled lightly and said, "My dear son, are you shy? Don't struggle anymore, you can't escape Dad's Wuzhishan, dear, let's go home."

"Wow wow wow!"

Prince Lin: Let go of the widow!

Qi Lu couldn't understand the "dog language" at all, "kidnapped" the little dirt dog all the way, and left from the dining room, he inquired tactfully, and finally found his own house.

Qi Lu's house is not within the Jijia, after leaving the Jijia, he has to go out of the city, and after walking a long way, he saw a dilapidated house in a desolate place. If it is placed in modern times, it may be recognized as It's a horror-themed haunted house.

squeak-

Qi Lu pushed open the door and walked in. The little native dog in his arms was still in a fit of madness. Taking advantage of Qi Lu's inattention, "Wow!" he yelled, quickly rushed out of Qi Lu's embrace, and jumped to the ground.

In the past, Wang Zilin was most proud of his kung fu. He was as light as a swan, and his sword was as white as a rainbow. Even swordsmen in the rivers and lakes would not dare to compete with Prince Lin, but now...

Because Prince Lin turned into a little dirt dog "for no reason", he miscalculated his size, accidentally landed on the ground and rolled forward, his big head turned forward, "Gudong! "Guan in the corner of the wall, fell a mess, sat on the ground and kept shaking his naive big head, in a cloud of mist.

Qi Lu didn't have time to look around at the house where he was going to live in the future, and came to the little dog, squatted down and checked the little dog, it seemed that there was nothing wrong, so he felt relieved.

Qi Lu stood up and continued to look around the house. He only needed two words to fully describe the situation of this house, and that was - the shabby room.

The roof is broken, the ground is damp and deformed, the corners of the walls are moldy, and there is a damp and gloomy atmosphere in the room. There are some small wooden beans piled up in the corners, and occasionally one or two bronze utensils. There is a lot of dust on the ground, and only one is covered with There was no thatch, and there was no dust in the area about two meters long. Qi Lu guessed that it was a bed for resting...

Qi Lu's back was still hurting, but looking around, there was no medicine in the house.I made some snail noodles just now, and all of them went into the stomach of the little gentleman, and I didn't eat anything after all my hard work.The sky is big and the earth is big, and the meal is the biggest, so let’s find some food first, and then we’ll talk when we’re full.

He went to the corner and opened those small beans one by one. There were miscellaneous pickles and some food in the beans. When the beans were opened, the smell of sour, bitter, or pungent came to the nose. Hairy, Moldy and bitter abound.

He fanned the air in disgust to dispel the spoiled smell, picked and picked from the inside, and picked out the unspoiled food one by one, and arranged them aside.

Prince Lin saw Qi Lu eating those vats of vulgar food that exuded a strange smell, and he actually laughed. He really didn't know what he was laughing at.

Qi Lu said to himself: "It seems that this Qi Lu is still a person who loves vanity."

Qi Lu, of course, is referring to the former Qi Lu.

Because he discovered that the food in these small beans contains some expensive products, such as red dates. During the Spring and Autumn Period, dates were a delicacy enjoyed by nobles. Because there was no white sugar in this era, the sweetness of dates was sought after by nobles. Ordinary people It is impossible to eat.

And millet.Millet is one of the five grains in ancient times. We often say that millet is the leader of all grains.Millet is divided into two types: sticky rice and non-sticky rice. Because of its good taste and low yield, it is also the standard for nobles at this time. Qi Lu's family actually has several millet millets that are ground into powder and made into pancakes.

What also surprised Qi Lv was that he did not expect that there was some honey in the house. It was called stone honey in this era, and it was sticky in the red bean. Because the red bean was dark, and it was not stored properly, it was sticky when it was opened. Not bad yet.

In addition, there is almost nothing to eat in the food at home, bad and rotten.

Qi Lv looked at the only remaining food in his hand, squinted his eyes and thought for a while, and then the brilliance that seemed to compete with the sun and the moon appeared on his face, his eyes were shining brightly, and the corners of his lips were slightly raised, revealing a light smile. shallow smile.

Qi Lu cleaned his hands first, took out a few pieces of cakes made from millet flour, and weighed them in his hands.The cakes in the Spring and Autumn Period are different from the pancakes we call now. People at that time would steam the wheat and rice, then pound them into powder, and then mix them with water to make cakes and eat them.Cakes made of wheat flour are called wheat cakes, and cakes made of rice flour are called rice cakes.Because the process is simple and there is no post-processing, so to be honest, the taste of wheat cakes and rice cakes is not very good.

Moreover, the millet cakes are stored in containers and there is no refrigerator, so they will inevitably be air-dried and hard to the touch. I wish I could kill someone, not to mention the taste.

The millet cakes in Qi Lu's house happened to be sticky ones, so he immediately turned on the fire quickly, cut the millet cakes into strips of even size, washed and removed the pits from the red dates, cut them into small pieces, and put them together The water is boiled into soup, and it is carefully boiled into rich and sweet red date water. The red date water is gurgling, and with wisps of steam, the unique sweet smell of dates emerges.

While boiling the jujube water, Qi Lu poured the oil into the pan, and then rolled the strips of millet strips into the [-]% hot oil with a sound of "stab--".

Once the millet sticks are in the pot, how noble the Prince Lin is, how could he have seen the things between the cook and the cook, he was startled immediately, his small antenna-like tail "teng" stood up, just like a radar, a pair of little earth dogs Hei Liuliu's eyes were also wide open, staring warily at the boiling oil pot, which actually made Qi Lu laugh.

While frying the millet sticks, Qi Lu said, "My son, you are in for a treat. Try the fried rice cakes made by Dad later."

Fried rice cakes?What is that?

The little local dog smelled the sweetness of red dates and the unique aroma of deep-fried oil, and his little tail shook involuntarily, feeling like "moving his index finger".

Millet cakes in this era are generally steamed and eaten dry, and at most served with various pickled sauces, but Qi Lu cut the millet cakes into strips and fried them in a pan. I have extensive knowledge, and I have never seen this kind of eating method. The fragrant oily smell is inexplicable.

Because the millet cakes are already cooked, it saves Qi Lu to steam the rice cakes again and fry them directly in the pan. Soon, the rice cakes will be fried until golden, and each one is golden, filling the cramped small shed with appetite instantly. Fragrance.

This is not over yet, Qi Lu poured out the red date soup that had been boiled, let it cool for a while, then poured stone honey into the red date soup and stirred, although the red dates are already sweet, it is not as sweet as stone honey, and the fragrance of red dates , the sweetness of stone honey mixed together, the taste immediately sublimated.

Qi Lu picked up a piece of deep-fried fried rice cake that was golden and crispy, charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and rolled the golden fried rice cake into the jujube sugar water. It was crispy and waxy in the mouth!

The taste is smooth, moist, waxy and fragrant, but not sticky to the teeth.

Gollum-

The little dog stared at the "weird" food cooked by Qi Lu, and his little nose couldn't help but move. Even though he didn't want to, the "grunt" in his stomach still went against the owner's wishes, and he yelled loudly.

You must know that Prince Lin is in the palace, and the emperor's meal is "twelve tripods, one cow, two sheep, three pigs, four fish, five meat, six intestines and stomachs, seven skins, eight fresh fish, nine fresh meat, There are three "accompanying the tripod", and there are 26 beans in addition. One bite of each is enough to fill the belly. It can be said that he has never seen such delicacies. However, he has never seen this fried rice cake, and he has never heard of it!

The little dog stared at Qi Lu eagerly to eat, but he insisted on his status as the prince, so he couldn't go forward to share the food. He thought about it for a while, his eyes rolled around, and his little tail turned faster and faster. When you are conquered by food...

knock --

It was a knock on the door.

"Is Henry here?"

A woman's voice sounded outside the shed. Qi Lu put down the fried rice cake in his hand, frowned slightly, wiped his hands, and went to open the door without any haste.

The dilapidated tent door opened, and a woman dressed as a maid stood outside the door and did not come in. Seeing that Qi Lu was alone, she automatically ignored Prince Lin who had turned into a little dog, and breathed a sigh of relief like a thief. After looking around , the speed was extremely fast, and he whispered in an adulterous tone: "Hengren, Zheng Ji invited Hengren for a while today, this is a keepsake, and everything is broken! Don't!"

After the maid finished speaking, she was afraid that people would find out, so she hurriedly turned around and ran away at a trot all the way.

Qi Lu didn't have time to say a word from the beginning to the end, the maid had disappeared, and when she looked down, there was only a fragrant, soft, slippery silk handkerchief in the palm of her hand that the maid had forced in just now.

Qi Lu looked at the handkerchief, and said in a flat tone, "It really is... cheating."
