Ding Tian's Ancient Life

Finally, Wang Zuo finally finished nagging, and began to ask Ding Tian again: "How is the settlement in Beijing?"

"Everything is settled, I went to the official department to change the transfer order." Ding Tian briefly talked about his affairs these days.

In addition, Wang Fugui has already asked the kitchen to prepare meals in a hurry.

As for the Chief History of the Palace, the Head of the Inner Court, etc., they are very curious about the one who attaches so much importance to the Prince.

But without Wang Ye's permission, no one dared to take a look ahead, you must know that Wang Ye didn't rub sand in his eyes.

The two chatted all morning and wanted to say a lot, but the palace is not a small household, they live here three times a day all year round.

meal.

So lunch was also served.

Ding Tian had dinner with Wang Zuo in the palace for the first time.

Wang Zuo was also afraid that Ding Tian would not understand anything when he just came to Beijing like this, and he was afraid that he would be laughed at, so he told him a lot of things, especially about meals. Chinese people pay attention to talking about things at the wine table and talking about friendship at the table. .

So this meal is also very important.

Wang Zuo's banquet hall is only open for Ding Tian this time.

On the long table, there are ten plates and eight bowls, and there are at least seventy or eighty dishes of soup, water, side dishes and dipping dishes.

Each.

And these things are all made of a set of sweet white porcelain tableware, with translucent thin edges, like jade.The small bowl of rice is only the size of the palm of your hand. The rice in the bowl has a strong aroma of rice. It is long-grain fragrant rice.

How much does it cost just for this tableware?

Moreover, once one of such tableware is damaged, even if the spoon is damaged, it will not be a complete set, let alone placed in front of the owner.

Ding Tian held a small bowl of rice in his hand, curled his lips, it was too small, the two bites would be gone... He used to eat at home, and the rice bowl he used was two big bowls, two bowls of rice, his stomach was full, such a rice bowl, You won't be hungry even if you eat eight bowls!

Let's talk about the table in front of you.

The plate is big and deep, but there are only a few dishes in it!

For example, there are only two of the fifth-class pigeons. The pigeons are small, so what is left after the feathers have been removed and the internal organs have been removed?

On a big plate, the two pigeons are flying together, and there are two peonies carved with heart carrots around them!

There is also the Baowang Naofu, which is actually abalone, but there are only eight of them, and they are placed in a hollow pattern carved with winter melon, and then placed on a plate... It looks quite big, but the plate and winter melon are big, and the abalone is so big. He is tall, like a flower heart inside.

There is also a dish called Erlong Xizhu, which really uses carving to the extreme... The key is that these dishes have small portions and the name is magnificent.

Wang Zuo introduced him one by one: "In the future, when you are in Beijing, you will inevitably be sensual... You should take a good look at these things, and don't let people underestimate them. My people have unique vision. Even if they are treating guests to dinner, you You can also despise it, don't treat you as a bumpkin from a remote place..."

He was afraid that Ding Tian would be underestimated when he went out, but he didn't know what to teach Ding Tian. .

But he just needs to know, just understand.

Ding Tian is different, just the opposite of him, the grassroots class has no support when they come up, um, except themselves.

"Can you let them go out?" Ding Tian was a little awkward, because there were two servants standing beside him serving him dishes, and there were 30 people serving the dishes back and forth. The soup he used, the dishes and bowls Yes... so many people serve him, he is really awkward.

"You all step back!" In fact, Wang Zuo just wanted Ding Tian to enjoy it, and he would not reveal it until he saw something outside.

cowardly.

Helplessly, Ding Tian didn't have that thought, he was just awkward, and when everyone went down, except for the table full of delicacies, he and Wang Zuo were the only ones left, and Ding Tian immediately revived with full blood!

I saw him bare his arms and roll up his sleeves, and brought the rice bowl in front of him!

The rice bowl in the palace was about the same size as their soup bowl. Ding Tian felt that he was hungry. He was nervous and excited in the morning, so he didn’t eat much. After meeting Wang Zuo, he felt that he had eaten less in the morning. I'm hungry.

Bringing the rice bowl over, picked up a crab roe soup that he had spotted a long time ago, "paji", poured it into the rice bowl, while stirring

The side said: "I understand what you mean, don't worry, although I have never been to the capital, I have never seen anything in the world, but I have fought against 50 million barbarians, I am in a hurry, I will give them a fight Force down ten meetings!"

Seeing him like this, Wang Zuo was astonished, and suddenly, he lowered his head and smiled, "Yeah! Why did I become stupid when I returned to the palace?"

What? "

"That's right, you, when you go back to this palace, I don't know you anymore." Ding Tian babbled on his soup and rice, while sucking on the bird's nest porridge: "That one over there, crystal elbow, pass it to me." , among the things on this table, it is the only one that can still see some meat."

Whether it's as exquisite as silver bird's nest porridge, or five-species squab, they are all so scattered, some have meat, some don't, and there are crystal elbows, which are real meat.

Ding Tian doesn't eat fatty meat, but picks up the fat ones, eats lean meat himself, and loves to gnaw bones: "The crab roe soup tastes good, but it's too

not enough. "

"Now is not the season, let's wait until next year. In autumn next year, I invite you to have a few crab feasts." Wang Zuo put down his lord figure, and still felt that eating with Ding Tian was delicious.

He didn't eat rice with soup before, but now, like Tian'er, he eats peony jelly with rice?

The two of them were much freer without outsiders, Ding Tian threw away his arms and ate everywhere: "I'm not talking about you, the food here is delicious!"

This was the first time he saw a banquet where a prince entertained guests. It can be said that the tablecloths on the table were all high-quality silk embroidery!

If it was someone else, Ding Tian would definitely not be able to eat this meal, but this is his man, so why not be afraid!

It's time to eat and drink, he's home anyway, it's not an exaggeration to eat something from home.

"I asked someone to prepare some things. I planned to send them to you in a few days. You can take them back with you when you go back." Wang Zuo said: "The palace allocated twenty catties of bird's nest to me. People cook it for you."

"Is it too much?" Ding Tian had a pigeon leg in his mouth: "One point is half gone..."

"Not much, and I don't often eat this thing." Wang Zuo hates the sweet and greasy taste, but the bird's nest itself has no taste, so it has to be taken with sweet things.

If he didn't distribute the rewards from the palace to Ding Tian, ​​would he keep them for the old goblin and her son?

Don't think he doesn't know, last year the palace distributed fifty catties of bird's nest to the palace, but the palace gave him twenty catties, and the remaining thirty catties were eaten by the woman and her son. Jin took it as a gift.

Do you really dare to act like a demon when he is not at home?

The nanny didn't stay at home for nothing, she didn't keep her things, but the nanny deducted their quota.

In fact, according to the rules of the palace, the concubine has five catties of bird's nest every year, and the second master has a quota of three catties of bird's nest, but after they eat more and occupy more... naturally they have to make up for it. If they don't give it, then they will have what they should have deducted from the quota.

In addition to bird's nest, there are expensive things such as shark's fin and ginseng.

Wang Zuo used to sell these things even if he didn't eat them himself. He would rather get vulgar gold and silver than give the woman too much food.

"Okay!" Ding Tian was not polite to him: "Don't use ginseng or something? I am so young, and I don't need it." "It's good to keep the stew for drinking." Wang Zuofei wanted to give it to his family. There are a lot of ginseng in the house, and they are all tributes. I save it for the old woman to make soup, so it is better to nourish Ding Tian's body.

The two ate Hesai for a meal, although there were many plates and bowls on the table, there was not much food to eat. Ding Tian ate rice, and Wang Zuo ate golden silk rolls and silver noodles in soup.

Anyway, I was full.

Leaving a mess on the ground for others to clean up, Wang Zuo took Ding Tian to the Yin'an Hall: "The Yin'an Hall is my site, and it is also the place where the former

hospital. "

Ding Tian kept looking around curiously: "This place is so big!"

The square in front of Yin'an Hall is as big as the square in the community where Ding Tian rented later, and this is just the size of the main courtyard of the palace.

grid.

On both sides of Yin'an Hall are two cross-courtyards, which are side halls.

Across a small alley, to the east is Wang Zuo's study, and the three-story attic next to the study is the Library Pavilion.The courtyard on the west side is the "Golden Portuguese Courtyard", which is the courtyard for the princes to live in, and the grapes have many sons, implying the meaning of hundreds of sons and thousands of grandchildren.

think.

Behind the Golden Grape Courtyard is the corresponding Jade Grape Courtyard, which is a courtyard for the family members of the world, but these two courtyards are now separated from each other.

Locked up because His Royal Highness King Ning has no children, no heir, let alone his wife.

"Back then, that woman wanted my second brother to live in the Jinpu Courtyard. I didn't agree, so I placed him in the Jingtao Xiaozhu behind the Library Pavilion. Who told the woman to let someone take a bath in the Library Pavilion? I asked Her son lives in Jingtao Xiaozhu, and if a woman dares to take a bath, I will let her son go to the lake to have a good bath!" Wang Zuo and Ding Tian grinned: "Besides, Jingtao Xiaozhu is built near the water. There are many mosquitoes in summer and severe cold in winter, that woman can do everything, but she dare not risk her son."

Ding Tian was amused: "Isn't this the same as putting your brother on the frying pan?"

Living next to the water sounds beautiful, but it is only when you actually live on it that you can imagine how beautiful it is.

It's so easy to drown!

And the entrance and exit is just a bluestone slab bridge with nine twists and turns, which really sits in a situation where one man guards the gate and ten thousand men cannot open it.

Princess Ning might not even be able to sleep soundly.

But even if the backyard is empty, it is impossible for the 14-year-old second master to still live with his mother, right?

How Wang Zuo treated Wang Zuo back then, Wang Zuo treats his brother now.

The father is gone, the elder brother is the father!

Isn't it normal to teach your younger brother a lesson from your elder brother?

Just like what Princess Ning said back then, isn't it normal for a mother to teach her son a lesson?

Hearing this, Ding Tian couldn't laugh or cry: "A mother? Is there anyone like her who is a mother?"

Wang Zuo said indifferently: "I put my mother's spiritual seat in front of her at that time."

Ding Tian was taken aback: "Huh?"

"Then she has to go to my mother's spiritual position and perform concubine ceremony!" Wang Zuoli said confidently: "No matter how early my mother dies, she will still be my father's original spouse, and she will still be Princess Ning!"

So no matter how angry Princess Ning was about to vomit blood, old King Ning didn't say anything.

After all, the original spouse is different from the second wife. The original spouse married the family background, the dowry, and the status of the father-in-law and brother-in-law... The second wife married exactly what they looked like.

To put it bluntly, the stepwife has to behave like a concubine in front of the original spouse's spiritual seat, which is the nobility of the original spouse.

Wang Zuo took Ding Tian around the front yard of his home, and walked to almost every corner. He sincerely let Ding Tian take a look at his home: "This is Jingtao Xiaozhu, where my brother lives."

Just as I was talking, a dark blue figure wanted to run out of Jingtao Xiaozhu wretchedly, but there was only one road in this place, and that was the bluestone slab bridge with nine twists and turns. Let people see at a glance!

Seeing his younger brother, Wang Zuo's face was immediately covered with ice, and he gritted his teeth and looked at the boy who had nowhere to hide: "Wang, You!"

Ding Tian was stunned. Wang Zuo's younger brother...was called Wang You?

This name sounds like two brothers, two brothers!
