Traveling through life to become rich

Yi Hengqi stood up, stretched his waist, sat down again, watched Yi Hengrui practicing calligraphy with little interest, and occasionally complained: "Brother Huang reads and practice calligraphy step by step every day, life is too boring , don’t you want to go out of the palace to play?”

Yi Hengrui was amused and annoyed when he heard the words, and after he finished writing the words on the paper, he said: "How dare you say these words? Is reading and practicing calligraphy for fun? You are still a prince, and you have a playful temper." If you don't change it, if the country falls into your hands in the future, you don't know what will happen."

Yihengqi just made a complaint, and was educated by Yihengrui, covering his ears as if to cover his ears: "Brother, I was wrong, please teach me a few words, even if I am a bit playful, it's okay, anyway, there are Is the emperor here?"

Hearing this, Yi Hengrui glanced at Yi Hengqi helplessly, and sighed: "You, don't always think about having fun, it's time to calm down.

When Yi Hengqi heard that Yi Hengrui wanted to teach him again, his brows were about to wrinkle, and he rubbed against him like a puppy, stretched out his hand to rub the ink for him, and flattered him: "Brother's handwriting is so beautiful, I will teach you how to write it in the future." Teach me."

When Yi Hengrui heard this, a smirk appeared on the corner of his mouth: "No, I can teach you now, come on, choose a brush." ​​Yi Hengqi didn't expect Brother Huang to say that, so he hurriedly begged for mercy: "Forget it today. Let's talk about it later, talk about it later."

Yi Hengrui shook his head, picked up a book on the desk, and slapped Yi Hengqi on the forehead with a 'pop', and said helplessly, "You..."

After all, he didn't continue to criticize, but continued to practice calligraphy.

Yi Hengqi heaved a sigh of relief, and then poured an inkstone inkstone full of ink for Yi Hengrui in one go.

Dinner is still used by the two brothers together, and it is placed in the usual place.

Yi Hengrui doesn't place much emphasis on appetite, and his meals have always been light. Fortunately, the waiter serving him is careful, knowing that Yi Hengqi keeps his meals, so he specially asked the dining room to make some meat dishes that he loves, which made Yi Hengqi smile. , praised the waiter several times.

When Yi Hengrui had dinner, it was strictly forbidden to disturb, the two brothers faced each other across the table, and the atmosphere was very harmonious, but just halfway through, a figure flashed outside the door, stood still outside the door, and whispered inside Reported: "Your Highness, I have something to report."

When Yi Hengrui heard the sound, the corners of his eyes twitched slightly, he slowly put down the chopsticks in his hand, smiled and said to Yi Hengqi: "You eat first, I'll go out for a while."

Yi Hengqi rolled his eyes, as if thinking of something, he nodded with a smile.

When Yi Hengrui went out of the room, the person outside the door just moved his lips, but Yi Hengrui glanced at him and immediately fell silent.

The man was wearing the clothes of a palace guard, with a trace of delicacy hidden in his lowered eyebrows, his name was Shen Li, and he was Yi Hengrui's right-hand man in the palace to inquire about news.

Shen Li bowed and followed Yi Hengrui, and the two walked towards the corridor.

There was no one around, Yi Hengrui said slowly: "Speak."

Shen Li looked around, and then said in a low voice: "Your Highness, about lunch time, a little eunuch brought a food box to Mr. Xie's place. After some inquiries, he found out that the person was His Highness Eleventh." people."

His Highness the Eleventh is Yi Hengmei, the son of Concubine Shu, and Concubine Shu has always been at odds with Concubine Li.

Yi Hengrui became suspicious when he heard the word 'food box', although his expression remained unchanged, his eyes sank.

Xie Mingyu, who Yihengqi met outside the palace, was quite friendly because of An Shizi. Yihengqi knew the depths, and after entering the palace, he hadn't deliberately inquired about it until yesterday.

Yihengqi had just announced Eunuch Yang yesterday, and today he sent someone to deliver lunch to Xie Mingyu in the name of Eunuch Yang. If he said that he had no intentions, Yihengrui would definitely not believe it.

As if for the sake of Anyi Hengrui's heart, Shen Li said: "The little one has already checked, and the food sent is no problem, Mr. Xie

It's fine, after all, he only entered the palace for the Queen Mother's birthday banquet, no one dares to mess around, if something really happened, there would have been a lot of trouble

"

〇

Yi Hengrui smiled noncommittally, and glanced at Shen Li: "In this case, Heng Mei is covering up, is it just to send some food out of kindness?"

Shen Li breathed hard, and looked a little embarrassed: "Young one has not dealt with the people around His Highness the Eleventh yet, and only bought an ordinary guard. The meaning behind His Royal Highness's move is still unclear. The little one is already trying to find a way to slowly infiltrate it, please give the little one some time."

Yi Hengrui knew that Shen Li was telling the truth.

Inquiring about news in the harem was already full of dangers. If someone caught you, you might be charged with a conspiracy immediately, especially now that the position of the crown prince was not determined, everything had to be careful.

Yi Hengrui sighed secretly, still showing a nonchalant expression on his face, and said: "It's not long since you were transferred, it's already good to be able to do this, you will find a chance to meet the guard who bribed you later, and praise him Let him say a few words, give him more taels of silver, and if there is any other action from Heng Mei, report it immediately."

Shen Li hastily said yes.

Yi Hengrui gave a few more instructions, sent Shen Li away, and returned by himself along the original road.

As soon as Yi Hengrui entered the room, he couldn't help wrinkling his nose, staring at the half cup of wine in Yi Hengqi's hand, and said displeasedly: "I'm only going out for a while, why is there more wine on the table? You have forgotten what the father taught you? The prince is not allowed to drink alcohol if he has nothing to do, so as not to cause trouble, why do you always refuse to listen!"

Hearing the words, the waiter who was waiting on the side knelt down in fright.

Yi Hengqi also shrank his head, put down half a cup of wine in his hand, and flattered him: "Don't worry, brother, this plum wine is very light, it's not intoxicating at all, and I only drank two glasses, I'll drink it tonight. I won't leave, I will stay here with Brother Huang."

"I've already eaten, and you still don't want to leave?" Yi Hengrui held his forehead with some headaches, "I've been hanging out with me all day, hurry back

Go to your courtyard, if you continue to be so negligent in the future, I will report to my father and punish you. "

Yi Hengqi protested aggrieved after hearing the words: "We have only eaten half of the meal, why did Brother Huang drive you away? What did I do wrong?"

Yi Hengrui didn't think it was funny: "Okay, it's your fault for drinking, don't be childish, I'll send someone to take you back. Don't think about being lazy these few days, and I'll let the servant general I will send that copy of the Gupai of the Former Dynasty to your courtyard, and if you have nothing to do, you can practice more calligraphy with it, write a few more pages and show it to the concubine mother, so as to make the concubine mother happy."

Yi Hengqi actually wanted to stay, but seeing Yi Hengrui's resolute attitude, he had no choice but to agree, and left angrily.

After the meal delivery by the unknown little eunuch, although nothing happened in the end, Xie Mingyu felt uneasy in his heart, especially now that Shen Yanzhi was with him, and he dared not be careless in the slightest, for fear of any accidents, and the diet was even worse. It is extra cautious, but everything that needs to be imported is bought from the space.

With such precautions, the time soon came to the day of the rematch.

Ten sets of luxurious arenas have been built in the spacious yard of the outer imperial dining room, on which are placed a full range of stoves. Before the start of the competition, if there are other kitchen utensils needed, they can be supplemented.

The rematch is divided into two games, ten groups in the morning and ten groups in the afternoon.

The status of the three judges is extremely valuable, they are composed of three princes, and the elimination system is implemented.

Xie Mingyu had drawn the lottery for the morning competition, and the time was running out.

His opponent was a middle-aged man with distinct features and a tough appearance, wearing the uniform white robes of the inner imperial dining room, standing on the ring opposite him, with a gentle smile on his face.

At this time, Xie Mingyu didn't know his name. It wasn't until the three princes sat down on the judging table and Yan Chuan took out the yellow silk to introduce each group of opponents that he knew that his opponent was actually Zhao Lan.

It is the Zhao Lan that Eunuch Yang mentioned that "occasionally when the emperor has no appetite, the only thing he wants to eat is the dessert made by Zhao Lan"

Lu Xing, who was separated from him by a ring, had obviously heard of Zhao Lan's name, so he couldn't help but look at Xie Mingyu worriedly.

Xie Mingyu heard Zhao Lan's name, her heart fluctuated a bit, but her expression was still calm, and she couldn't see anything.

In the group arena, the questions were set on the spot, and it was King Su who was sitting in the middle who set the questions for Xie Mingyu and his group.

Su Wang stood at the end of the year, with a calm temperament, and always had a warm smile on his face. He smiled and said: "I know Zhao Yuchu's craftsmanship, and it is unrivaled in the palace. Shopkeeper Xie has been among the best in the competition these days. The craftsmanship must be exquisite, if the questions this king asks are too specific, it will not show the true level of the two of you."

King Su thought for a while while talking, then his eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "Well, the two of you will use 'surprise' as the theme, and compare whose desserts are more eye-catching. Of course, the taste must also be Guaranteed."

Xie Mingyu couldn't help raising her eyebrows when she heard this.

Is this more than creative?

Because it is the last rematch, there is no specific time limit for the game, as long as it is done, it can be presented to the three princes for tasting.

The three princes seemed to be very interested in the game, they watched with great interest, and occasionally chatted with Yan Chuan, who was by the side.

As a modern person, I have seen many desserts that can make people's eyes shine, but what do they do?

Xie Mingyu thought about it, and finally decided to make fondant cake cups.

Even in modern times, fondant cake attracts people's attention with its luxury, exquisiteness and unique fashion elements, let alone in such ancient times.

Use fondant instead of common whipped cream to cover the cake body, and then decorate with various sugar-shaped flowers and animals. The cake is as delicate and gorgeous as decorations.

Time passed bit by bit, and one after another, there were chefs' completed works, which were presented to the three princes for tasting.

Xie Mingyu decorated the last cake cup with plum petals, then wiped off the thin sweat from the forehead, looked to the side, and found that the people in front had already finished, and she was actually the last one.

And because he was too focused before, Xie Mingyu didn't even notice what kind of dessert his opponent Zhao Lan made.

But Xie Mingyu was not worried at all.

Xie Mingyu made three fondant cake cups, each with a different pattern, including plum blossoms, roses and hydrangeas, which are lifelike.

After Xie Mingyu's finished product was presented, the eyes of the three princes were all amazed.

Su Wang smiled and said: "I have never seen such an exquisite cake before, and I am reluctant to eat it. Can you introduce it to the shopkeeper?"

Xie Mingyu replied respectfully: "My lord, this is a fondant cake cup. The cake body is made of fresh eggs, cream, fresh milk and other ingredients, and a layer of peach flesh is added as a filling." Actually, chocolate was added Fan, Xie Mingyu bought it secretly from the space, so she didn't say it.

Su Wang nodded, took a bite and tasted it carefully, his eyes gradually narrowed, "The taste is delicate, rich in layers, with a strong fruity aroma, it is very enjoyable to eat." Su Wang praised with satisfaction, "Plus The exquisite and beautiful appearance, I give it a very high point."
