Chapter 686

Yan Shifan and Xiang Xiaodong have a very similar elder brother aura, and they hit it off right away. Although they didn't talk much, they chatted quite speculatively.

Wang Ronggui has a top-notch EQ and can chat with anyone. With him and Hao Hua always around, everyone is quite happy to eat.

After returning to the palace after eating, Xinbao still needs to practice calligraphy and lightness skills.

Then Lu Sanchi came over and asked her, "Your Highness, when will you use the flower-shaped meat you prepared?"

Only then did Xinbao remember that she also asked Yeye to enjoy the plum blossoms.

But it's very cold, and eating barbecue outside is either in the morning, or at noon, and it will be cold in the afternoon, so Xinbao said to him: "Or tomorrow, and, you skewer all the meat, A bunch of them, easy to eat.”

Lu Sanchi respectfully agreed.

So at noon the next day, Emperor Ming Pei gave an order that Yan Qingshan and Yan Shirong had time to come over to eat barbecue.

Here, when Yan Shisheng asked someone to build it, he originally thought that his parents might be interested, and they would come here once in a while, so the building was quite small, like a half-side pavilion, and it was a little bit like putting two big stoves at once. It's crowded, but it's also quite lively for a family to squeeze together.

Although Emperor Ming Pei didn't really ask the meat to be cut into flowers when he ordered it, but Lu Sanchi heard about it, and it was fun. Several kinds of meat were cut into flower shapes, leaf shapes, lotus pods, etc., fat and thin, Roasted sizzling and oily, the aroma is overflowing.

But the meat roasted by the imperial chef is very clean and delicate, wishing that even the shreds of the meat are distinct. It will not have a layer of cumin and other seasonings on the skin like later generations, which always looks a bit unsatisfactory.

This time with the stove, Xinbao sprinkled the seasoning on it spoon by spoon.

The seasoning evenly covered the surface of the meat. It was slightly charred, and when you bite into it, you can feel the salty aroma and tingling on the tip of your tongue. Eat it, but you won't have any taste."

Tuanzi rested one elbow on Yeye's lap, holding a bunch, eating while blowing, his tears were so hot that he had no time to speak.

Emperor Ming Pei asked someone to pour wine for both Yan Qingshan and Yan Shifan, and said with a smile, "Have a drink to keep you warm."

All three of them took a sip before Yan Shifan said, "Yeah, are you still going to Zhuangzi this year?"

Emperor Ming Pei looked at his granddaughter: "Does Xinbao want to go?"

The dumpling nodded sharply while eating, Emperor Ming Pei said: "Go if you want, twenty one seal, twenty two, go, go play for a few days."

"Yeah, grandson won't go?" Yan Shirong said, "I want to take advantage of these few days to read books."

Emperor Ming Pei raised his eyebrows and glanced at him.

Yan Shirong lowered his eyes, turning over the barbecue on the cover.

Yan Shirong can't even say that he has stepped into the court with one foot now, he can be said to be completely in the court.

Compared with Yan Shifan's joining the army, Yan Shisheng's inner mansion, and Xinbao's name... His path is completely different from others.

In the eyes of the courtiers, the situation is even more clear.

Having come to this point, and having gone through so many things, if his thoughts have not changed at all, I'm afraid it may not be so.

So he took a step back at this time, in fact, it should be a kind of self-restraint.

He hopes that he will never forget his original intention because of power. He hopes that his family and brothers will always be the top priority in his heart.

But obviously, Yan Shifan didn't think much about it at all.

Yan Shifan laughed and said, "Yeah, Wulang Liulang said yesterday that he wanted to take Wei Gui and the others with him, but I don't know if it will work."

"Yes," Emperor Ming Pei said, "Their family members can also be brought along... Do you have anyone you want to bring along?"

Yan Shifan smiled and said, "Actually, my grandson wants to invite Duke Wei to go with me. If the grandpa is willing, then please invite him. Grandson wants to chat with them."

Emperor Ming Pei nodded, "Are you planning to go back to the border?"

"Yes," Yan Shifan said with a smile: "My grandson likes the border, and my grandson thinks... I am naturally suitable for that place."

Emperor Ming Pei smiled, and asked again: "Where is Xinbao? Who do you want to take?"

Tuanzi snorted, looked at his eldest brother, and said, "No one will bring Xinbao!"

"Oh?" Emperor Ming Pei said: "You don't bring your real friends, and you don't bring your friends with nostalgia? Why?"

Xinbao said: "It's not easy to have a holiday, and they are called back to work overtime, how pitiful? Xinbao is not the kind of unreasonable boss."

Everyone has adapted well to the strange words that Tuanzi popped up occasionally, Yan Shirong said with a smile: "Then have you ever thought that they might be looking forward to 'working overtime'? This is full of civil and military affairs, you should ask them one by one and rest at home And go to Huangzhuang, I'm afraid ten out of ten will cry and want to go to Huangzhuang."

Is that so? Xinbao thought for a while: "Then take it."

Emperor Ming Pei smiled and said, "Xiang Xiaodong and Wei Fengting can only bring one, who do you want to bring?"

Xinbao said: "It's better to be Wei Fengting!"

Emperor Ming Pei nodded.

Yuan Shenjue asked: "Your Majesty, when will the hanging pot be?"

Emperor Ming Pei thought for a moment: "The 20th day of the twelfth lunar month will be as usual, and then a notice will be posted, and the draw will be drawn on the 20th day of the first month after the next year? Or just draw in February?"

Xinbao said: "The twentieth day of the first month! At that time, Yeye will start working, Xinbao and Yeye will advance and retreat together!"

Emperor Ming Pei smiled and said, "Yes."

Hao Huashi said: "Speaking of which, in the future, Xuanhu can directly use people from Rangshanwei?"

"No," Emperor Ming Pei said, "Hanging the pot is not a matter of the Department of Medicine and Dao, there is no need for Rang Shanwei."

Tuanzi asked, "Can Rang Shanwei have special clothes?"

Emperor Ming Pei asked: "Do you want special clothes?"

"Of course!" Tuanzi said: "They are people with a heart, so of course they have to be different from others!!"

Emperor Ming Pei smiled and said: "In the next year, you will find your second brother to handle this matter."

The family chatted and ate slowly.

Hao Huashi also poured some wine, toasted one and the other, and said, "This year's Chinese New Year, the capital is really bustling like never before. When I went out, I saw people everywhere on the street. There are people everywhere at the hanging pot. The literati come here, look at the scenery, recite poems and so on."

"Well," Yuan Shenjue answered him, and explained to Tuanzi by the way: "Next year's martial arts enco, plus the imperial examination, we will come together. Now it's really a gathering of literati and warriors in the capital. On the 20th day of the twelfth lunar month, the hanging pot, It must have been very lively."

Tuanzi thought for a while: "Then what clothes should Xinbao wear? Wife?"

Yuan Shenjue said: "Put on court clothes, apricot yellow court clothes, paired with official boots, it must be very majestic."

The apricot yellow is actually the prince's robe, but Yan Qingshan seldom wears it, mainly because Mrs. Lin thinks this color doesn't look good on him.

But Xinbao looks good in everything she wears, and she made more than a dozen sets after the decree was made, and Xinbao hasn't worn much yet. Now that his wife said so, Tuanzi made a decision: "Okay then, let's wear court clothes!! "
