Four elder brothers take the script of salted fish

Under Cao Yin's shocked eyes, the falcon in front of him shook his head slowly after feeding his cub, his black bean-like eyes were full of disdain, probably—you two beasts have never seen a mother feed a child. Kind of right?

Cao Yin inexplicably felt that he was being despised: ...

After feeding the cubs, the falcon flapped its wings and went straight to the sky, and Yinzhen also turned to look at Cao Yin: "Cao Guard, what did you just say?"

Cao Yin: ... What do you ask the servants to say in this situation?

He was silent for a moment, and then said in a deep voice: "The servant will take you up."

Cao Yin hugged Yinzhen on his arm, and then the other hand and two legs were vigorously, and he flew up the branch lightly, jumped up to the top of the tree in two or three steps, with a shrill and hoarse voice beside them Back, Cao Yin subconsciously grabbed the treetop and looked up vigilantly.

Sakers live in pairs when raising their young.

What appeared in front of the two was another Saker falcon, which was different from the one that quickly let go of Yinzhen's vigilance just now, this one fluttered its wings nervously, and Black Doudou's eyes were full of doubts.

Why does this person smell so good?

Saker wished he could fly into Yinzhen's embrace, circling around indefinitely.

Yinzhen looked at it and didn't care, and carefully put the little chick in his hand into the nest.There are four fatter and bigger chicks in the nest. The fluff on the largest one has almost faded away, and it is exactly the same as its parents except that it is smaller and has a softer cry.

Cao Yin frowned.

Just as Yinzhen let go of his hand, he was surprised that the little bird fell back firmly into his palm once again with force.Yinzhen was stunned for a moment, then put the little chick back into the nest again: "Oh dear, you have to go home to survive."

But the little chick chirped.

It held Yinzhen's fingers pitifully, and staggered back to Yinzhen's palm again, the soft fluff gently swept over Yinzhen's palm, and the small body trembled slightly.

Yin Zhen wanted to put it back again.

Cao Yin stopped his movement and shook his head slightly: "Si elder brother, there are five to six Sakers in a nest. It is extremely difficult to feed two Sakers, and only the strongest can survive. But you see—— "

He pointed to the other chicks: "The biggest one has shed most of its fluff, and the smallest one is much bigger than the one in your hand. I'm afraid that this chick hasn't eaten for a long time before it falls down. Tree."

Cao Yin sighed: "Put it back in the nest, I'm afraid it will be a dead end." Perhaps this little chick also knows that the hope of life lies in the fourth elder brother in front of him.

Yinzhen looked at the chick dawdling with him very worried.

He waved his hand to motion for Cao Yin to take him down the tree, and sure enough, the two adult Sakers did not hang around him again even though they came back this time.

Yinzhen stretched out his hand to tease the little chick.

Soon he made up his mind: "Ben elder brother wants to raise it."

The fifth elder brother Yinqi was extremely envious.

He had to drag Yinzhen around the tree several times to make sure that no other birds fell down before returning to Kangxi resentfully.

Kangxi is in a good mood.

He caught two fat big grass carp and jumped on the ground full of energy. The guards and soldiers who went hunting next to him also had a good harvest. They caught several wild ducks and bird eggs that they didn't know where they came from. The harvest puts a smile on everyone's face.

Kangxi looked at Yinzhen and Yinqi with a smile: "What about your harvest?"

You don't need to look to know that the two didn't catch the crabs and dried shrimps.

Kangxi was planning to tease his two sons, but unexpectedly found that Yinzhen spread his hands towards him, and the swaying little chick inside made him slightly startled.

The Ministry of Internal Affairs has a falconry room, and Kangxi also raised and tamed falcons himself.He only leaned forward to take a look, and quickly judged the situation of the chick in front of him: "Where did you get the baby Saker? This cub is only this big at this point, which shows that its natural body Weakness is not suitable for raising. If Yinzhen wants to raise eagles, wait until Prince Darhan's mansion, and ask Bandi to find two for you to play with."

Yinzhen was startled when he heard this.

Afraid that Kangxi would lose the chick, he hurried to the side, and while protecting the chick, Yinzhen looked at Kangxi vigilantly: "This is brought back from the hands of the falcon mother, and I will definitely raise it well." !"

"……what?"

"Your Majesty, this matter—" Cao Yin hurried forward and told the whole story.If it weren't for Cao Yin being his confidant, there was absolutely no possibility of deceiving him, Kangxi would have to laugh at it—a ferocious animal like a falcon would give its cubs to humans to raise?

Think again about the reaction of the spotted horse on the first day.

Kangxi's complexion also gradually became weird. He looked at the little chick and nodded: "Since you want to raise it, you must raise it well—do you know how to feed it?"

"Well, I saw the falcon mother stuffing the meat strips into the chicks' mouths." Yinzhen recalled the scene he saw before: "I just use chopsticks or tweezers to stuff the meat strips in."

Cao Yin also had a strange expression on his face.

Thinking of the action of the mother falcon falling on the ground and feeding the chicks in front of the fourth elder brother—I thought it was strange just now, but now another possibility arose in his heart: Could it be that this falcon understands human nature for the sake of Do you teach the fourth elder brother how to feed the chicks?

The food was enough and there were unexpected surprises, and the group rushed back in a hurry.As soon as he entered the camp, Yinzhen was greeted with a series of yells. First, he asked someone to fetch a soft fur mat, and then served a piece of fresh meat. After cutting it into thin strips with scissors, Yinzhen fed him bit by bit.

The chicks were obviously very hungry.

It swallowed the food with its mouth wide open, and before it swallowed it, it opened its mouth wide and chirped, which sounded more like a chick than a mighty Saker.

Yinzhen fed a small plate of meat strips, and the little chick looked full.It moved in the nest contentedly, scratching a groove on the plush cushion, and then the nest was settled.

"Looks like I'm sleepy!" Yinzhen gently rubbed the chick's head with his fingers, then took the net cover to cover the chick, then covered the chick with a layer of black cloth, and finally tiptoed Leave the camp.

It was bustling outside.

While Yinzhen was taking care of the chicks, the bonfire outside had already started.

A raging fire ignited in the open space not far away, and from a distance Yinzhen saw Han Ama and Er Niang meeting each other, sitting side by side, smiling very brightly.

Yinzhen's heart skipped a beat.

A wicked smile appeared on his face, and Yinzhen rushed straight over, intending to fly between the two of them.

But on the way, he was caught by the quick-sighted Concubine De, who smiled and dragged Yinzhen to the other side, and stuffed a whole plate of freshly roasted mutton into his hand: "You, don't make trouble." , be careful your ass gets another fat beating."

Yinzhen pursed his lips and turned his attention to the roast lamb in front of him.

Let’s start with a slice of mutton: the sliced ​​mutton is cut from a roasted whole lamb. It’s crispy on the outside and soft and tender on the inside.

Yinzhen smash it, let's try the mutton skewers again.

The mutton kebabs are grilled just right. Looking at the sizzling oil and water, I thought it would be a little greasy, but there is only a burnt aroma in the mouth. After chewing, a strong smell of gravy and spices bursts out in the mouth.

Fat but not greasy, burnt but not firewood.

This mutton kebab has a more perfect texture and better taste than the mutton slices I ate before, and it is simply irresistible.

Yinzhen ate one after another with great joy.

As more and more people tasted the mutton skewers around, the exclamation sounded frequently: "Isn't this mutton skewer too delicious?"

"Wow - what kind of barbecue material is this?"

"Compared to this, what did I eat before?"

"Who made this? It's so delicious!"

"Oh my god, this is the best skewer I've ever eaten!"

The guards and soldiers all felt that their hearts, livers and lungs were itching.

However, there is only a small batch of this good taste, and only one or two skewers are distributed to each person, and then taste the ones made by others or baked by themselves...

Hmm... I can't taste it when I bite it.

After eating such delicious food and then eating these again, it is simply unpalatable QAQ

It's not enough to eat only one or two skewers. The guards and soldiers on empty stomachs looked around, eager to find the taste they dreamed of.The clever ones even approached the officers and soldiers in charge of the logistics kitchen, intending to inquire about the source of the barbecue ingredients.

The officials in the back kitchen were in a dilemma.

It’s just that most of the guards and soldiers who can’t hold back and can participate in the bonfire meeting are clan dignitaries or courtiers and generals. Ten confessed.

"What!? Is this made by the imperial concubine?" The exclamation resounded throughout the camp, and then everyone was stupefied.If other people can ask for a prescription or something, how can they ask Concubine Tong?

The officers and soldiers of the guards scanned the audience eagerly.

Then they were one by two, three by four... Finally, everyone's eyes fell on His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the brothers.

Prince Yinreng got together with his brothers.

The portion in front of them was much more than that shared by the guards and officials, and the alluring fragrance couldn't help but make everyone swallow their saliva.

Countless greedy eyes fell on the iron plate.

Yinzhen, prince Yinreng, elder brother Yinti, third elder brother Yinzhi, and fifth elder brother Yinqi vigilantly noticed the change in the atmosphere.They raised their eyes and scanned the surroundings. Instead of giving out rewards as the guards and soldiers thought, they sped up their movements and wiped out the mutton skewers in the iron plate one by one.

Satisfied~!

Accompanied by the belching sounds of Prince Yinreng and the brothers, the eyes of the surrounding guards and soldiers also turned into mourning.

The Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager watched this scene cheerfully.

Especially the Empress Dowager was very old, and she could only sigh while looking at the mutton skewers, and slowly drank the haggis soup with a bowl.

A cauldron was set on the campfire.

It is haggis soup that is boiled to the boil.Haggis soup is haggis, cut the head, hoof, blood, liver, heart and intestines into small pieces, add green onion, ginger and pepper, and boil with a large bowl of white wine Boil, and finally add lamb bones and boil until the soup is milky white. The lamb haggis is tender and crispy, which is the first-class top grade.

Drinking a sip of haggis soup in winter is a top-notch enjoyment.

Now that I drink it in this hot weather, I feel a little hot. Even if it tastes good, the Empress Dowager is very restrained and only drinks a small bowl.She looked at the pitiful guards and soldiers and couldn't help laughing: "It's true that the barbecue ingredients are gone, but there is a big pot of haggis soup, let's share a bowl with each of them!"

The guards and soldiers were not very interested in haggis soup.

But after the palace man said that this was specially made by the imperial concubine, most people's eyes lit up, and they took a big mouthful of haggis soup.

Others are hesitant.

Haggis, also known as sheep offal, was originally made by poor people who were reluctant to discard it. After the Eight Banners entered the customs, many people claimed to be superior people and were unwilling to eat this haggis.Seeing the people around them gulping down the soup as if they were possessed, they frown and hesitate.

Someone quickly made up their minds.

A guard hooked one of them on the shoulder: "Brother Niu Gulu, it's not good to waste food. Since you don't want to drink, give it to me!"

"No—give it to me!"

"Hey... Let me share your worries for you!"

More than one person competed, and a group of people rushed beside the hula-la ground.

The Niu Colu guard immediately became anxious: "It's shameful to waste food! How could I make such a mistake? I drink it myself!"

After the words fell, he straightened his neck and took a sip.

Different from the unbearable stench as imagined, the unusually delicious soup filled the mouth, warming the heart, and it was so fragrant that I wanted to swallow my tongue.

Niu Colu, the chief guard, let out a breath.

Immediately after the mellow aroma came the spicy smell, which made people sweat all over the body, wishing to take off their clothes and run up...cough cough!

Everyone's face is red.

Taking sips of the haggis soup, tasting the unique spicy taste, Yinzhen suddenly thought of another thing: "Ah—speaking of those wild vegetables that were picked!"

The fifth elder brother Yin Qi sipped the soup.

Hearing this, he smashed it and said, "The pile of weeds has been sent to the kitchen, maybe it's ready now?"

Sure enough, after a while, a bowl of wild vegetable soup was delivered to everyone.

Peanut tofu and other condiments are added to the emerald green wild vegetables, which smells light and fragrant. It is very suitable to relieve the greasiness after eating a bunch of barbecue.Yinzhen didn't think about it, and just took a sip when he picked it up. In an instant, Yinzhen's face froze, and he snorted and groaned.

"What happened to the fourth brother?"

"Well...it's such a miraculous taste, my brother, it's the first time I've tasted it!" Yinzhen looked at the wild vegetable soup in front of him in amazement, and what he said made the elder brother Yinti sneer: "It's not the first time I've tasted it." Is it? Where did you eat wild vegetables in the palace?"

"Brother, try it."

"I'd like to taste the unique taste you mentioned..." Yinti casually took a sip, and then he froze in place.

When Yinti raised his head again, he looked at Yinzhen tenderly: "Sure enough—it's the first time in my life that I tasted it. It's so, so, so special! The second brother of the prince, you have to try it too. "

Prince Yinfeng: ...?

He looked at Yinti and Yinzhen suspiciously, always feeling that they were hiding some unspeakable evil intentions.

Isn't it just a bowl of wild vegetable soup?

Prince Yinfeng picked it up and smelled it. The fragrance stimulated the taste buds, and it looked no different from ordinary green vegetable soup or mustard soup.

Yinzhen and elder brother Yinti watched him intently with bated breath.

The moment Prince Yinreng picked up the bowl and was about to drink, the exclamation of third elder brother and fifth elder brother made him stop.

"Wow... what is this?"

"Isn't this too sour!?"

The third elder brother Yinzhi and the fifth elder brother Yinqi stuck out their tongues and looked at the wild vegetable soup in front of them in shock. The two small faces wrinkled into a ball and urgently asked for water can prove that this wild vegetable soup is absolutely unpalatable very.

Prince Yinfeng: ...

He silently pushed the wild vegetable soup in his hand aside.

Yinzhen and elder brother Yinti looked at each other.

The two approached the prince step by step like a bully meeting a woman from a good family on the street. At the same time, they did not forget the devil's whisper: "Second brother prince, we brothers should have the same blessings and share the same difficulties—"

"The second brother of the prince, as a prince, you need to be considerate of the people..."

The third elder brother and the fifth elder brother also came over.

One said, "Heaven has sent a great mission to the people of Sri Lanka", and the other said, "You must first work hard on your heart and mind, and work on your muscles and bones."

The four of them surrounded the prince Yinfeng tightly, with malicious intent in their eyes, if the prince doesn't drink wild vegetable soup today, he won't be able to get out of the encirclement of our brothers.

Prince Yinreng couldn't laugh or cry.

Just drink it, he doesn't believe that this stuff is worse than medicinal juice.He picked up the wild vegetable soup and took a sip slowly, a strong sourness hit his face, and for a moment Yinfeng felt that what he was drinking was not wild vegetable soup or a bowl of vinegar.

It's still the kind of vinegar that is sour to the extreme.

Even though his endurance was strong, Prince Yinreng's face gradually turned blue and then turned white again, and it took a lot of effort to swallow it.

He let out a long sigh of relief.

It's just that the next second when he smelled the strong, lingering sour smell wafting from his mouth, Prince Yinfeng's entire face turned black again.

He turned his eyes to the excited Yin Zhen.

Prince Yinreng stretched out his hand and grabbed the little bastard: "You...didn't you say wild vegetable soup is delicious? Huh?"

Speaking of this Yinzhen reminds me of the real murderer behind the scenes.

His teeth were itchy, and he glared at Kangxi who was sitting in the distance: "It's all Khan Ama! Khan Ama said that this sheep's foot grass has a unique flavor that makes people miss it till now, isn't it Yinqi?"

The fifth elder brother Yinqi was also filled with righteous indignation.

He nodded heavily, his small fists were clenched, and he had the idea of ​​beating Khan Ama hard.

Of course, this thought only turned around in his mind but he could only suppress it, Yinqi looked at his fourth brother pitifully with his head downcast.

Yinzhen crossed his hips.

There was fire in his eyes: "Can we forgive Khan Ama? No!" Yinzhen waved his small hand: "Let's go! Since we drink Khan Ama, we have to drink too!"

Wild vegetable soup Kangxi naturally also has a share.

He smiled and called to the imperial concubine who wanted to have a sip, and cheerfully pushed the wild vegetable soup aside: "I can't drink this stuff, I'm using it to amuse Yinzhen."

"..." Concubine Tong couldn't laugh or cry: "Your Majesty!"

"You don't know how happy this kid is to pluck the leaves. I said this thing can be eaten, and he won't keep a bit of it if it's delicious. He just took it all away." Kangxi didn't notice Concubine Tonghuang Weird eyes, still muttering endlessly.

Yinzhen stared at Kangxi with a dark face.

Kangxi noticed the sad eyes behind him, and was taken aback by the presence of his sons as soon as he turned his head.He glanced over the wild vegetable soup in their hands, and instantly understood the purpose of everyone's visit. Kangxi said calmly, "How does it taste? Is it very unique?"

"Khan Ama, how can you say this is delicious?"

"I didn't say it was delicious, I just said that the unique flavor makes people nostalgic."

"...This smell can make people nostalgic?"

"Is this taste very close to vinegar?" Kangxi said confidently: "Since the vinegar for condiment became available, the food boiled with sheep's feet in water has become increasingly rare."

"The porridge?"

"During the famine years, the poor people used it to feed their hunger. It was the way to cook it into soup and porridge. You also added nut tofu to it, which is already much richer."

"Why don't you eat Khan Amana?"

"I drank it before." Kangxi's eyes wandered for a moment.

Looking at his sons who were either dubious or glaring, he maintained a calm expression and slowly took a sip from the bowl: "...Look, I said the flavor is unique."

Concubine Tong smiled and bent over.

If your arms don't tremble, Your Majesty, and the corners of your mouth don't twitch, this sentence will be more true.

Yinzhen:…………

Seeing that you are acting so seriously, Erchen will not expose you... So Khan Ama doesn't need to pinch his thigh, insisting that the mutton soup is delicious.
