The Struggle History of the Fourteenth Qing Dynasty

Chapter 076 The Consequences of Drunkenness

For those who got married, Bafujin was only summoned after a month of marriage in Babeile's mansion.

The empress dowager was in the Changchun Garden, and the eight blessings were summoned by the concubine Yi, accompanied by the concubine Liang, but the eight blessings turned a blind eye to the concubine Liang.

After entering the palace, he met Concubine Hui, and went to sit with Concubine Yi for a long time to eat, and before leaving, he did not go to see Concubine Liang alone.

Kangxi did not ask Bafu Jin to come to Changchun Garden to have an audience, but he sent back a decree separately, and Jin conferred the title of Liang Concubine as Liang Concubine and bestowed him with Xianfu Palace.

Xianfu Palace is at the northernmost side of the Sixth West Palace, next to Chuxiu Palace, and has a road leading directly to the Imperial Garden, so it is a good place.

But the concubine Liang became a good concubine, but the eighth elder brother was not happy: "Didn't you go to visit the mother when you entered the palace?"

Bafujin felt guilty: "Yes, but Er Niang was with Concubine Hui at that time, how could I meet alone?"

She shifted the responsibility to Concubine Hui.

The eighth elder brother looked at her, turned around and left.

But Fujin didn't feel that he was wrong. Concubine Liang's background was quite low, and Concubine Liang's position was rather disgraceful. Fujin liked Eighth Brother, but that didn't mean he liked his mother-in-law.

The eighth elder brother was not in harmony here, but Kangxi's side was quite comfortable, so he called Xiao Shishi to have dinner again.

The first one is the eight rough quail.

This quail is not the domesticated one. It is full of meat, but wild. It looks a little thin, but the meat is tight and strong.

The eight rough quail cooked in the palace is also a delicate dish. Although the main ingredient is quail, there are a lot of ingredients, such as shiitake mushrooms, cooked gizzards, tender bamboo shoots, scallops and ham.

Wash all these ingredients and cut them into small cubes, add salt and mix well, put them in the middle of the quail's belly, sew them up with a needle and thread, put the quail in boiling water for a while, put it in a steaming plate, and cut it short Silk thread, pull out the silk thread, and steam it in a pan for a period of time.

The steaming time should not be too long, take it out just after it is ready, fry it in a boiling oil pan until golden brown, take it out, sprinkle with sesame oil and fine salt.

The eight rough quails are golden in color, crispy on the outside, glutinous and delicious, and rich in nutrition. More importantly, the ingredients in the stomach of the quail are rich. The shape is also good-looking, and it can be said to be full of color and fragrance.

The second dish is dried sea fish with distiller's lees, which is said to be the flavor of the sea.

The third dish turned out to be Drunken River Crab, which is not easy to get, and you can only eat it in the garden.

The palace does not use cooking wine, but Shaoxing Zhuangyuan red. Drunk crabs are more delicious when eaten. The outside is made of distiller's grains, so the outside is generally not called drunk crabs, but drunkard drunk crabs.

Of course the palace can't call it that.

There is also a raw drunk river prawn!

More than a dozen dishes are all related to wine. They are both raw and cooked, and it makes people's index fingers move.

The last thing that came up was Jiuniang Yuanzi, which was a dessert.

Little Fourteen felt a little giddy before he ate it. There were so many delicious foods, and there was a sweet aroma of wine. At his age, he could already drink some wine, such as kumiss, fruit wine.

As for shochu, it is still not allowed, Yuquan, Huiquan can drink at most one or two cups like this, and burning knives is not allowed, for fear that he will hurt his stomach if he drinks it.

"Huang Ama is in a bad mood, you can eat something with Huang Ama." Sitting in front of the table, Kangxi said, "Drunken river prawns can't be eaten in ordinary places."

There are no fresh shrimps in the palace, and this dish cannot be made.

"Is it because of my sister, Huang Ama?" Elder Fourteen also looked a little slumped: "My son is not happy either. If he gets married, he will be the daughter-in-law of another family, not even a princess. If I want to see my sister in the future, I have to go to the princess mansion, and I can no longer go to Huangma's place, so I can see my sister, Huangma, why do people grow up!"

"I have many children, but not many caring ones. You count as one, and your sister counts as one." Kangxi said: "Because of this, I don't want her to caress Meng."

The father and I chatted about the fifth princess, and the food made by Kangxi was really delicious, so the little fourteen ate a little too much. These dishes are all made of wine!

Especially the drunken prawns, which use white wine, are sweet and delicious when eaten, but he gets drunk after eating.

In fact, Kangxi has always wanted to see what the drunk Xiaosi looked like, and this time he saw it.

He just gave some guidance, and Xiao Shishi couldn't control his mouth anymore. He asked some questions, and Xiao Shisi's answers were incisive and accurate, and also very insightful!

Kangxi couldn't help asking him about the affairs in the court. Before asking him, he just pretended to be stupid with himself. The starting point is very special, it is the "Treaty of Nerchinsk". Speaking of this treaty, the fourteenth elder brother has a lot of opinions, saying that Suo'etu is an idiot!

"Bounded by the Ergun River and the Geerbiqi River..." Even though he doesn't have a high score in history, he is also a person who passed the college entrance examination anyway. Do you know the famous "Nerchinsk Treaty" in history? ?Back then, I heard two buddies who shared the bed discuss it, and it was quite intense.

It is said that this treaty is actually a treaty of treason. It was clearly the victor, but he ceded a large area of ​​land and even shook hands to make peace. At that time, Tsarist Russia had no ability to continue fighting.

The Qing Dynasty can demand war reparations!

Later generations have disputes over whether the treaty is an equal treaty, and if it is an unequal treaty, which one is more unequal to China and Russia.

So that both countries think that they are the ones who suffer.

But in Xiao Shishi's view, there is a problem here, that is, the language barrier. This treaty has five versions in Chinese, Manchu, Mongolian, Russian, and Latin. Can the translation understand all of them?

It’s like a lot of things, but it’s not like that when translated!

Isn't the English version of "Water Margin" called "A Story of One Hundred and Five Men and Three Women".

Local translations also have different names. There is no unified text at all, and it is not uncommon for the documents to be controversial.

Once again, Xiao Shisi, who drank too much wine, stood on his emperor's dragon chair and talked eloquently, berating Fang Qiu, swinging his small arms, and his big eyes sparkled!

Then?Then he doesn't know anything.

It's like a dream, in the dream, I was still in the university dormitory, two buddies who shared the bed were arguing fiercely over an ancient treaty, and my mouth was flying, Little Fourteen helped this one, and that one, but in the end they couldn't help , he fell asleep in his dream.

The next day I woke up in Kangxi's Qingxi Bookstore, rolling my head on the kang with my head in my arms: "What did you do yesterday?"

"It's nothing, you can get drunk even after eating a dish, this is the first time I've seen such a thing." Kangxi stepped forward and patted his head: "Drink some hangover soup, and have breakfast with me later."

"Are you still eating?" Elder Fourteen hugged Kangxi's arm, hesitantly: "What are you eating?"

"Breakfast is light, and I have someone make your favorite shrimp wontons." Kangxi's attitude as always made Fourteenth brother pat his head. Could it be that after he was drunk yesterday, he also prescribed "Huang Ama" Solo concert"?

The breakfast in the morning was still rich. Shrimp ravioli appeased the [-]th elder brother’s bewildered expression. When he left, he asked Kangxi for dinner in the evening. There must be steamed shrimp dumplings, steamed fish skin dumplings and boiled fish .

Looking back, the fourteenth brother asked the people around Kangxi, did he get drunk after eating vegetables, was he rude?

"No, you just sang, and Long Live laughed." What Li Dequan said was basically the standard answer.

The fourteenth elder brother just went back without thinking, but after a few days, he heard from his own brother who came to the garden to pay his respects that Suo'etu was dismissed!

"Haven't you already thought about it behind closed doors at home?"

"In the past, he still had a title, but now he has become a white body, and he can no longer think about his mistakes behind closed doors at home, but Suo Xiang's personal connections over the years are still very useful and saved his life."

The two brothers were silent for a moment.

The fourth master looked at the fourteenth elder brother: "But I don't think Huang Ama will stop there."

"There is also Zhijun Wang, the handwriting of Mingxiang." Elder Fourteen raised his head and looked at his brother: "Brother, what do you think?"

Fourth master was taken aback: "Me?"

"Yes!" Elder Fourteen said as a matter of course: "Brother, you are still loyal, right? The crown prince doesn't look like you Daoming Lord..."

"Shut up!" Brother Si sneered coldly: "Stop getting involved in these things from now on."

"Understood." Brother Fourteen is an obedient boy, and immediately changed the subject with Fourth Master: "In the evening, we will have dinner in the garden, and I will have someone cook boiled fish and deep-fried shrimp for you to eat." !"

The government outside is turbulent, but Changchun Garden is still as peaceful as a paradise.

Even Chen, a concubine in the palace, gave birth to a young elder brother. After calculation, this child should be the seventeenth elder brother.

Sure enough, Kangxi gave the name Yinli, it is said that it was because the Chen family understood etiquette, and the Chen family was actually a high-ranking court lady, and his father, Chen Xihe, a second-class guard, was born in the Han army.

After giving birth to a son, she is still a concubine. Of course, the treatment is that of a concubine, but just like the Wang family, her name is not right, and she is embarrassed in the palace.

After the birth of the son was full moon, he was carried to the elder brother's office and let the nursing mothers take care of it. Chen's was far worse than Wang's, and he didn't have any emotions at all.

There is no fuss, and the harem is peaceful.

As for true peace or false peace, I don't know.

During the Dragon Boat Festival, I saw a dragon boat race in the garden. Although the place is small, the dragon boat can still be rowed. One of the teams won and was even received by the emperor. Anyway, seventy or eighty people won 100 taels of silver, and won a A royal banquet, and two clothes for one person.

No.2 to the last place, nothing!

On the other hand, Brother Fourteen shouted until his voice became hoarse, and he jumped up and down happily. The Empress Dowager laughed when he saw it, and pointed to Brother Fourteen in the distance and said to Kangxi, "Look at Little Fourteen, he is so happy!"

"It's a pity for this child. I have never seen such a competition. I came to the garden before, and even ran to your painting boat to see the rarity!" Kangxi laughed as he saw his fourteenth son jumping up and down: "Later it was his fourth brother, I took him and Xiao Shisan to take a few boat rides, and even ate river fish."

"Really? Then tomorrow Ai's family will also go to take a boat ride. By the way, call Xiao Shisi and let him go with Ai's family! It's also enjoyable." It's rare for the empress dowager to think of the boat and want to go on the boat. sit down.

"Then he is very happy, the son has not been on the emperor's mother's painting boat yet!" Kangxi pretended to eat.

"You, wait until the next wave!" The empress dowager was also happy: "This wave is only Aijia and Xiao Shishi, oh, and Xiao Shisan."

Kangxi failed to get on the Empress Dowager's boat, but Xiao Shisi and Xiao Shisan held hands and went up.

"The painting boat is really beautiful!" Little Fourteen coveted the Phoenix painting boat for a long time, and after getting on it, he ran around for a long time, very happy.

"Just play if you like, and accompany my old lady to swim in the lake." With the yelling of the two children, the empress dowager also felt very lively.

I even enjoyed a song and dance on the painting boat, and admired the dancing girls.

The dinner in Huafang in the afternoon includes boiled fish, deep-fried prawns in oil, and spicy fried snails, all of which are river delicacies. It is rare for the empress dowager to eat such things, and they are quite delicious.

Life in the garden is leisurely and comfortable, and even Kangxi is planning to tour the north!

After Elder Fourteen knew about it, he immediately ran to express that he wanted to go too.

"Okay, I'll take you there!" Kangxi already put the fourteenth elder brother on the list of followers, so he readily agreed.

Brother Fourteen immediately ran back to prepare.

During this northern tour, basically all the grown-up elder brothers went, the youngest was of course Xiao Shishi, and the oldest was Zhijun Wang.

I heard that Princess Zhijun, also known as Da Fujin, is pregnant again.

The crown prince also had Shu Fujin who was also pregnant, compared to Sai's pregnancy, gave birth to a child, and died again.

In this case, Ge Ge from the Sibeile Mansion is pregnant, which is not at all eye-catching.

Fourteenth elder brother followed the northern tour for the first time, and everything he saw was new, especially this time he officially stepped out of the capital.

When the emperor travels, the ground is shaken, and there are thousands of guards alone. In addition to the officials who greeted him along the way, the green battalion stationed, the children of the Eight Banners, etc., tens of thousands of people follow him wherever he goes.

What's more disturbing is that the emperor's food and food must be transported from the capital, including the drinking water, which must be the mountain spring water of Yuquan Mountain.

Even some food supplies are shipped from the capital. Later, after passing through Hebei and Chengde, there are local food and other supplies. However, the emperor’s own ingredients are still shipped from Beijing. According to the understanding of the fourteenth brother: "It's a waste of people and money!"

"Eat yours!" Fourth Master stuffed him with a piece of grilled lamb chops: "Huang Aman is the emperor, so you must be careful about food and clothing, so as not to be unacceptable."

The fourteenth elder brother gnawed on the grilled lamb chops: "How could it be? Don't you see that we are also alive and kicking?"

"You don't understand. During the three conquests of Ge Erdan, Huang Ama became seriously ill because of the acclimatization. Otherwise, how could Ge Erdan be confiscated three times? One conquest is enough." But the master told a story of the past to the fourteenth elder brother: "Fortunately, there was Jinji Nashuang, and the crisis was turned into safety later, so that now everyone pays great attention to Huang Ama's diet."
