Chapter 67 Visiting the door

San Lang was shocked when he heard Mr. Lian say that the guards outside the prime minister's mansion had withdrawn, "What's going on?!"

"I don't know. I passed by the Prime Minister's Mansion when I came here, and I heard from people in the mansion that when the guards withdrew, they took the Prime Minister with them."

"What?" Looking startled, San Lang opened his mouth and said, "Come from the east, clean up, let's go to Xiangfu."

"Now? I think you should wait a little longer. It won't be too late when Master Xiang returns from the palace."

Dong Lai: "That's right, Saburo, Fatty Xie hasn't bought back his donkey meat yet, and if he can't find us later, he will definitely trouble Mr. Lian."

"What donkey meat?"

"It's a long story." Sanlang glanced at him and saw that he wanted to hear, "There is Dong'e County not far from Taoyuan County. Every household in that county raises donkeys for a living, and five-year-old children can use donkey meat." When making a dish, I heard you say that the emperor is not in good health and has no appetite. I remembered a donkey meat that I ate before. The taste was so delicious that I wanted to lick the plate clean.

"I heard people say that donkey meat is not only delicious, but also has the effect of nourishing qi, so I wanted to dedicate it to the emperor. But I couldn't enter the palace, so I turned my idea to Xie's family." Next, he bought the stove Tell Mr. Lian about making cakes to lure Fatty Xie to take the bait, but he skipped over Yingsu.

"...How can you be sure that Fatty Xie will dedicate donkey meat to the emperor?" It's very simple to get Fatty Xie to take the bait, as long as he makes something he has never eaten before, and then someone publicizes it at the gate of Xie's mansion, Fatty Xie immediately Get over here.

"I didn't expect things to come true either. There is no other way." San Lang frowned as he spoke, Dong Juan was dumbfounded, God, San Lang is too powerful, even the censor dared to fool him.Dong'e County is famous for making donkey-hide gelatin, but I have never heard that people there are good at cooking donkey meat.

"You can go to me. Although I am not a high-ranking official, I can also talk to the guards on duty in the palace."

"You helped us find a safe restaurant, and you helped us conceal our identities, how could you be involved again." Saburo was very embarrassed, "If this kind of entrance is used by someone with a heart, it is very likely to cause death What a disaster, but I know that the risk is so great and I went to find you, wouldn't it be revenge."

"Aren't you afraid?" Lord Lian blurted out and asked.

"Me?" Saburo blinked, "I'm already engaged to Mrs. Zhen, Mr. Xiang and his wife are my parents, why worry about working for my parents."

Dong Lai couldn't help but cover his face. Not only could San Lang be foolish, but he was as thick-skinned as the gluttonous young master. He called him father and mother before he got married. No wonder the young master liked him.

It's not that one family does not enter one family, the old saying does not deceive me.

Lord Lian opened his mouth, "You, that, do you have any sisters?"

"I have a younger sister, what's the matter?" Saburo replied.

"Are you engaged?" Lord Lian asked again.

Saburo frowned, "My sister is seven years old."

"Huh? Why is it so small, isn't it seventeen?"

"Mr. Lian, don't bully your friends' wives!" Dong Lai suddenly stood in front of San Lang.

Saburo reminded him, "I am a man."

"You can't bully a friend!" Dong Lai stared at him nervously.

Lord Lian rubbed his nose, "I was the one who was abrupt." He paused, "It seems that the emperor ate donkey meat. He is not seriously ill at first, but his body is very weak. As long as he can eat, he should take good care of himself. , it might not be possible to live for two more years."

"Then do you now know why Xiangye entered the palace?" Sanlang asked hurriedly.

Lord Lian: "You may have heard that our emperor, how can I put it, has a soft ear, ignores the government, and kicks out anyone who doesn't like it, but he likes to go to court very much."

"Ah?" Saburo didn't know.

Lord Lian: "Besides drinking and sex, the emperor also has another hobby, that is, he likes to watch all the ministers kneel down and worship him, shouting the emperor Wanan."

"What the hell kind of hobby is this?" Saburo wanted to laugh, strange things were everywhere.

"The former prince forced the palace, and was deposed by the late emperor after the incident. Several talented princes were involved. The emperor was very mediocre at that time, so he escaped the treason case that shocked the government and the public. After that coup, the late emperor did not Knowing why, he fell in love with the ordinary emperor. The former emperor also knew that the emperor could be free, so he tried his best to cultivate Zhen Xiang. Not long after the former emperor passed away, the old officials left behind by the former emperor were pulled out one by one by the emperor. Over the years , that is, Zhen Xiang is safe and sound, and his official rank is getting higher and higher.

"Because the emperor is incompetent, the ministers in the court like to talk about him in private, and were informed by villains. Those ministers who thought the emperor was incompetent were dismissed by the emperor. Since then, the court once every ten days has been changed to once every five days. If the emperor is in a bad mood Well, I like going to court every day."

"Seeing princes and ministers kowtow to him every day?" Saburo was speechless, "Why didn't he toss away his throne after such a toss?"

"The princes who have the ability to compete for the throne have been circled by the former emperor. Besides, there is no real fool in the royal family. If the emperor does not want to be kicked out by others, he must ensure that the court is not in chaos. He is loyal to the first emperor, has excellent abilities, and has never been buried. The Emperor's Xiang Xiang will be the one who manages the government on behalf of the emperor. According to what you said, if the Emperor regains his energy after eating, it is very possible to see Xiang Zhen."

"The emperor can't leave Xiangye?" Sanlang asked, "Is that what you mean?"

"The main thing is that decades have passed, and the emperor has become accustomed to Xiangye's loyalty. He is not at ease if he is someone else. By the way, I forgot to tell you that the leader of the forbidden army is also a person left by the former emperor. He and Xiangye are the emperor. His right-hand man, unless the emperor has that, the crown prince will just jump around."

"No wonder." The man who can kill even his brothers didn't take the opportunity to get rid of the emperor. Some things that Saburo couldn't figure out are all clear now, "Then we will listen to Lord Lian and go there in two days. .”

"Two days?" He heard right.

"Yes, so as not to be seen by those who are interested in making a fuss." As soon as Sanlang finished speaking, Fatty Xie's voice came from downstairs.

Master Lian shook his head, "Go." He thought he had found the reason why he postponed going to the Prime Minister's residence.

The facts were similar to what he had guessed. It was precisely because of the Xie family that Saburo suddenly changed his mind.

In order to lure Fatty Xie to stew the special donkey meat, Sanlang bought all the Yingsu in the market and prepared to fight for a long time. He never expected Fatty Xie to be so greedy that he would come to the restaurant once in a few days, while Sanlang only stewed it once. The meat did the trick.

He also has a large bag of oriole shells mixed with milk, which he will throw away sooner or later.

While stewing the donkey meat, San Lang thought about how to send the bag of Yingsu to Xie's mansion without arousing others' suspicion.

Yes, Saburo knew that there was no good bird in Xie's house, and that it was Mr. Xie's handwriting that Brother Zhen's family was imprisoned, so he wanted to teach them an unforgettable lesson in this life.

"Well, I said, ready? You can't hurry!"

Suddenly a harsh voice interrupted Saburo's deep thinking, and Saburo glanced at him, and saw that he was cursing him in his heart, and he was troubled in his heart, and suddenly he had a flash of inspiration, yes!

"Donkey meat is tasteless and tasteless. If Mr. Xie finds it troublesome, I will give him the recipe later, and Mr. Xie will be able to eat donkey meat when he is at home."

The person who yelled at Saburo thought, yes, running out with the young master early in the morning every day would almost freeze him to death, "Forget you have winks, wait!" Then he went to Xie Fatty.

When Fatty Xie heard that Saburo gave him the prescription, he jumped up excitedly, "This kid, okay!"

Fatty Xie has taken other people's prescriptions before, but some of the secret recipes are passed down from their ancestors, and the head can be cut off and blood can flow, so the secret recipe can't be lost.

He beat people to death at that time, and the officials who went to handle the case were accompanied by his wife Zhen Qingming, who dared not disobey the law. Fatty Xie was arrested and sent to the criminal department.When Fatty Xie returned home, Fatty Xie was beaten so hard that Fatty Xie no longer dared to take other people's prescriptions, and his behavior of eating the overlord's meal became more and more arrogant.

Saburo asked Donglai to watch the fire, and led Fatty Xie and his party up the stairs, "Master Xie, I can't read, so you can write." He put the borrowed pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the table, and the big package beside him was It is his carefully crafted seasoning.

"Hurry up!" Fatty Xie urged Saburo before picking up the pen.

Saburo's heart was slightly cold, and the guilt caused by harming others disappeared in an instant, and he opened his mouth to say the stew recipe.

This recipe was when he won the Olympic gold medal for the second time in his previous life. A big boss invited him to eat in a private restaurant. He thought donkey meat was delicious, so he asked too much, and the owner of the private restaurant told him.

Sanlang knew the first time he made donkey meat. People said that he saved a hand when he added the husks of warbler millet to it, and the taste was far better than before.Therefore, after saying the words "Yingsuke", he raised his hand and picked up the big bag on the table.

"What is this?" Fatty Xie stretched out his hand to grab it, and asked casually, "What's inside?"

San Lang's face changed suddenly, "It's nothing." His eyes were fixed on the things in his hand nervously.

It was so obvious that there was no 300 taels of silver here. Fatty Xie unwrapped the package at a glance, seeing that he didn't recognize him, he suddenly asked, "Yingsu shell?"

Saburo snatched it back without saying a word, then put it behind his back, and said in a panic, "No way!"

Seeing that he was so nervous, Fatty Xie put away his casual attitude, narrowed his small eyes into a line, and said sharply, "Put it down!"

How could Saburo let him get his wish easily, and he kept praying in his heart that Fatty Xie must not do anything to him, otherwise, he couldn't guarantee that he would not fight back and continue to act.

"Go!" Fatty Xie raised his hand, and the four people who bullied the market with him all day went up to capture Saburo, broke his palm with all his strength, and took the package back.

"I can't tell, my hands are quite strong." Saying that he kicked Sanlang's leg, "Bah!" Spit spit on Sanlang's clothes, Sanlang's eyes went dark, and when he opened his eyes again, Fatty Xie had already kicked and ran down upstairs.

"What happened?" Dong Lai was driven outside by San Lang, and the door was closed again. He couldn't see what was going on inside, so he circled around San Lang when he came in, "Huh?" Seeing the footprints on his clothes, "They hit you?"

"It's okay!" Saburo was in a good mood, took off his coat, "Take it and throw it away."

"What's going on?" Dong Lai was anxious.

Saburo: "Let's talk about it later, let's go back tomorrow morning when the street is the busiest."

"Ah? Good!" Donglai thought he was going back to the prime minister's mansion, and thought, didn't Sanlang not say anything, and turned around to tell the master to see if Sanlang dared to hide it from him.

Saburo knew what he was thinking, chuckled and did not explain.

The next day, seeing them leaving the city, Dong Lai couldn't calm down, "I, shall we go back to Taoyuan County?"

"No!" Sanlang walked to the restaurant near the city gate, specifying that he wanted donkey meat.

Donkey meat is not a rare thing in the capital. After he finished speaking, the second brother brought a plate, and San Lang only tasted one piece, "Bah! This is donkey meat? Don't fool me with mutton."

"Guest officer, it's really donkey meat." Seeing that Sanlang looks kind and well-dressed, he doesn't look like someone who eats Bawang's meal, "Guest officer can ask other customers, if it's not donkey meat, guest officer will come to our shop whenever he wants The restaurant will give you free meals." The second brother was confident.

Saburo clicked his tongue, "It's really unpalatable."

The owner of the shop is not happy. Although the chef of his donkey meat is not a famous chef in the capital, it would be an exaggeration to say that it is unpalatable. "This guest officer, why don't you try our signature dish?"

"Forget it." Sanlang got up to take out the silver, and while doing it, he muttered the recipe for donkey stew seemingly unintentionally.

The store owner was taken aback when he heard this, and San Lang dragged him to the east and left.

"What are you doing?" He left without even drinking his saliva, Dong Lai thought that the plate of donkey meat was worth half a tael of silver, "If you don't eat it, keep it for me."

"In the future, if you have something to eat, follow me to do business first." Sanlang smiled, and walked from the east city to the north gate. When they went back to the Xiangfu, the two walked to more than ten restaurants for a long time. Fang Zi was also recited by Saburo more than ten times, no surprises, a few days later, there will be a fever of eating donkeys in the capital.

"Sanlang, you can't do this. The donkey meat in those restaurants all tastes the same. Anyone with a heart will find us out if they check."

"You are wrong. Two people use the same ingredients to cook the same dish, but the taste is different. Besides, the restaurants we are looking for have their own specialties. When the chef cooks donkey meat, he will unconsciously add his own thing.

"And sometimes I say that Jinghua sometimes speaks Qingzhou dialect, and I even change a few clothes in a row, so they don't dare to go to Duanwang's site to make a fuss." Sanlang made donkey meat and eggs sold everywhere in the capital. The reason for this is that Xie's family members will find out that they have been cheated by him in the future, and it will be too easy to check him.

"Since it's all right, did I knock on the door?" Dong Lai asked.

Saburo adjusted his clothes subconsciously. He was really nervous to see his mother-in-law. He took a deep breath and said, "Knock!"
