Abandoned Prince Survival Guide

Today's Chinese New Year, Meng Hong sent a bunch of dishes.In addition to Xiao Yu's favorite vegetables and soy products, there are also a leg of pork, half a lamb, live chicken, duck, fish, and shrimp.

There are many types and quantities, but there are very few people eating at home, and there are so many dishes that can't be eaten. This kind of weather is not suitable for storing meat.

Xiao Yu asked the kitchen to save the meat that was to be eaten today, and cut the rest into large pieces, marinated and cooked, then deep-fried in an oil pan, poured in the oil used to fry the meat and sealed it.He has used this method for the seafarers before, and the meat can be stored for a long time without spoiling.

All places in Yazhou are good, but this is not so good. There is no ice, and the meat is particularly perishable.Even if you go to the market to buy fresh meat every day, you may not be able to eat fresh meat at night. When it is the hottest, the meat will go bad before night.

But don't worry today, the meat will stay fresh until night.

Children love Chinese New Year the most, because Chinese New Year means eating meat.

Their family is usually not short of meat, but it is more abundant during the New Year and holidays, so Aping also likes to celebrate the New Year.

It doesn't make much difference to Xiao Yu because he is still fasting now, he hasn't eaten meat for about half a year, and a bird really faded out of his mouth.

The cook is the wife of the servant, and her cooking skills are not bad, but because she comes from a poor family, she knows only a few home-cooked dishes.Xiao Yu gave a lot of pointers, and now he is able to cook a few hard dishes.

But she can't make the vegetable tofu tricks, Xiao Yu wants to eat something that suits his taste, so he has to do it himself.

For example, at noon today, Xiao Yu made himself a three-shredded cold salad, lettuce shreds, cucumber shreds, and fungus shreds, mixed with lemon juice, soy sauce, minced garlic, spicy Polygonum powder, and sesame oil. It was very refreshing and delicious.

The lemon was grafted by Xiao Yu on Meng Hong's pomelo tree.

Even A Ping, who loves meat and dislikes, has eaten a lot. The little guy loves cucumbers very much, and eats cucumbers as fruits.

In the end, there is still a shortage of fruits. After a few more years, the variety of fruits will increase, such as sugar cane, grapes, pomegranates and water chestnuts.

After eating, Xiao Yu went to the kitchen to help prepare the New Year's Eve dinner.

There is only one cook here, and it is okay to cook meals for more than a dozen people, but if you want to make some new tricks for the New Year's Eve dinner, her level is still lacking.

When Xiao Yu was busy in the kitchen, Pei Linzhi was distracted by watching Xiao Yu inside from the window.His Highness has never been in the imperial dining room since he was a child, and many of the dishes he cooked have never been tasted even by them who grew up in the palace.

How does he know how to cook so many dishes?Did you really read it from a book?Why did His Highness, who talked about everything to him, never mention it to him before?

Pei Linzhi tried hard to recall those days when they were in the palace, but the more he thought about it, the more frightened he became.

Since His Royal Highness came to Yazhou, he has changed his previous cautious character and become bold and confident. He is not afraid of difficulties, has the courage to try, and actively takes action. He has done many things that he didn't even dare to think about.

He thought it was His Highness who was stimulated, suddenly opened up, and finally grew up.

Thinking about it now, this growth is simply reborn, and it happened overnight, surprisingly fast.

Pei Linzhi looked at Xiao Yu who was serious and busy through the window, and didn't dare to think about it, and even a little afraid to ask the answer.He turned around and left the kitchen.

Lai Feng was pushing A Ping on the swing, and the little guy was giggling excitedly.Pei Linzhi was not in the mood to play with the children, so he went into the study.

On Xiao Yu's desk were some small animals such as cows, sheep, horses, cats and dogs cut out of paper, as well as some bamboo pieces and silk cloth. Pei Linzhi picked them up and looked at them. What kind of toys are they going to do?

Next to it is a pomelo peel that has been cut and pulped. The grapefruit pulp is gone, so why keep this peel?Pei Linzhi picked it up to look at it, then put it back.

Xiao Yu instructed the cook to stew the simple version of Buddha Jumping Over the Wall, and then he came out of the kitchen. The cook could cook braised pork, sweet and sour pork ribs, white-cut chicken, braised fish, etc. without his help.

Seeing him coming back, Ah Ping quickly got off the swing: "Lang Jun, Lang Jun, lamp!"

Xiao Yu smiled: "Don't worry, I'll make it for you right away." He promised to make a revolving lantern for A Ping, the little guy has a good memory and has been thinking about it.

A Ping is very obedient, he won't enter the study if he says he can't, and has been waiting here for Xiao Yu.

Xiao Yu carried A Ping into the room: "A Ping, don't mess with the things on the table. Rin is there too?"

Pei Linzhi was looking at the Laws of Yazhou revised by Xiao Yu, when he saw him coming in, he put down the book in his hand: "Are you done?"

Xiao Yu said with a smile: "I made a finale for the New Year's Eve dinner, to compensate everyone for not being able to go back to the village, and to spend the New Year with me here."

Pei Linzhi looked at him: "Your Majesty doesn't eat by himself, what are you doing with so many dishes?" The more abundant their dishes, the more pitiful he would be.

"If I don't eat it, you can eat it." Xiao Yu put A Ping down, and took a rope from the table to A Ping, "A Ping, play with the rope, and I will make you a toy."

Aping took the rope, put it on his hands, and started to turn the rope.This is a simple puzzle game, Xiao Yu encouraged him to play.

A Ping flipped it twice in a decent manner, then looked at Pei Linzhi: "Come and flip."

Pei Linzhi had no choice but to hug him, and played a game of flipping rope with him.

Xiao Yu sat down in front of the case and began to make a revolving lantern.This is his manual work when he was a child, but he didn't expect it to come in handy now.

Lai Feng stood outside the door, watching two adults play a simple game with a child in the room, the corners of his mouth slightly curled up, and he turned to look outside. The two gentlemen are very gentle people, and they are especially patient with children. King Yue Sending him here was the right choice.

After repeated debugging, Xiao Yu finally completed the revolving lantern.Light candles below, and the paper horses, cows, sheep, cats and dogs will spin and fall on the thin silk cloth outside.

Simple and elegant paintings of plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum were also painted on the silk cloth, all of which were painted by Xiao Yu.

A Ping clapped his hands excitedly: "Lantern! Lantern!"

Xiao Yu laughed: "It's a revolving lantern. Well, let's watch it when it gets dark, it will look better that way."

Xiao Yu made a pomelo lantern for Aping. He carved the words "Safe and Happy" on the pomelo peel with a knife, and then picked it up with a rope, and put a short candle inside it, and it became a pomelo lantern. lantern.

A Ping was so fond of it that he yelled "woo hoo", and went outside with a pomelo lamp to show off to someone.

Xiao Yu shouted from behind: "Blow out the candles, it's not dark yet, don't waste wax."

As soon as he turned around, he saw Pei Linzhi staring at him in a daze. He didn't know how long he looked at him. Xiao Yu was a little embarrassed: "What's the matter? Is there something on my face?"

Pei Linzhi said: "I didn't know that Mr. Lang is still so ingenious."

Xiao Yu's expression became serious, he sighed softly, and said, "I thought I would keep this secret until the day I died. Now it seems that I can't hide it from you."

Pei Linzhi sat up straight, his throat was a little tight: "What secret?"

Xiao Yu asked him: "Do you think I have changed from before?"

Pei Linzhi clenched his hands into fists: "There are some, Mr. Lang is much more confident than before, and he can do a lot."

Xiao Yu licked his lips: "Rinzhi, what would you do if I wasn't the Highness you know?"

Pei Linzhi's fist trembled slightly: "Your Highness, stop joking, if you are not Your Highness, who else would you be?"

Xiao Yu looked up at the roof: "You and your highness have been together day and night, and you grew up together, didn't you realize something was wrong?"

Pei Linzhi pursed his lips tightly and did not speak. How could he not have found out, but he just didn't want to investigate further.

Xiao Yu said softly: "I'm sorry, I have been lying to you for so long. I am not your Highness."

Pei Linzhi grabbed Xiao Yu's shoulders excitedly: "Then who are you? Where is my Highness?"

Xiao Yu looked at the excited Pei Linzhi, and said softly: "I am not from this world, I should have died, but for some reason, my soul entered the body of your highness. I don't know where your highness is. , When I opened my eyes, I saw you lying in a pool of blood with serious injuries."

Pei Linzhi's eyes were already red, his lips were trembling, and he murmured after a long time: "You mean, my Highness has lost his soul?"

Xiao Yu closed his eyes for a moment: "I'm afraid that's the case. I'm sorry, I don't know why this happened. It's too unbelievable, so I didn't dare to tell you, and I lied to you for so long."

Pei Linzhi let go of his hand, and it was so painful that he couldn't breathe. His Highness, whom he wanted to protect with all his heart, was no longer there. Why did this happen?Did he still fail to save His Highness?Pei Linzhi clenched his fists, beat down on the table bitterly, and roared, "Xiao Yi!"

His roar startled Xiao Yu, but he didn't continue to go crazy, he just sat there with his head bowed, and soon, two puddles of water fell on the table.

He was crying, Xiao Yu's heart seemed to be grabbed by someone, and he was very uncomfortable, he called out cautiously: "Rinzhi."

Pei Linzhi didn't move, maintaining this posture, as if turning into a sculpture.

Xiao Yu didn't move, just sat quietly with him the whole time, his mind lost in boundless meditation.

A Ping, carrying a pomelo lamp, went and came back: "Mr., Qi Fan!"

Xiao Yu came back to his senses: "Oh, good." It turned out that it was getting late outside.

He looked at Pei Rinzhi, he was still in the same action as before, and the water stains on the table had become a big puddle.Xiao Yu tentatively called, "Rinzhi, it's time to eat."

Pei Linzhi didn't answer, Ah Ping saw that they didn't move, so he wanted to climb over the threshold and come in, Xiao Yu quickly said: "We are here, Lai Feng, take A Ping first."

Lai Feng keenly sensed that the atmosphere in the room was not right, and hurried away with A Ping in his arms.

Xiao Yu raised his hand and put it on Pei Linzhi's shoulder: "Rinzhi, please mourn!"

Pei Linzhi suddenly hugged Xiao Yu: "Your Highness, Your Highness, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" His voice was full of crying and self-blame, which broke my heart.

Xiao Yu patted him on the back: "It's not your fault, really, you have tried your best. If His Highness is alive in heaven, he will definitely not blame you."

Pei Linzhi choked up and said: "This subordinate is incompetent and failed to protect His Highness. This subordinate deserves to die! I will definitely kill Xiao Yi and avenge His Highness."

Xiao Yu said: "Revenge requires a long-term plan. It's time for dinner, and everyone is waiting for us."

Pei Linzhi returned to reality, let go of Xiao Yu, looked at the person in front of him, and closed his eyes again. He didn't know what mood he should use to face Xiao Yu. Why did such an incredible thing happen?
