Chapter 420 Fried glutinous rice **** (2)
It was still at Shiting two days ago, and Xinyue was already standing there waiting. Seeing Wen Mingtang passing by, he rolled his eyes angrily, and said, "Why are you so dawdling?"
Wen Mingtang looked at Xinyue, who had nothing to worry about, and said calmly: "As soon as I received the news, I immediately put down what I was doing and came here without delay."
What returned to her was Xinyue's cold snort, and she said, "After half an hour, you will deliver some refreshments to Qianyuan Hall on behalf of the servant girl from the imperial dining room."
Wen Mingtang looked at her and asked, "Is there any medicine in the refreshment?"
The question is so straightforward... Xinyue's face darkened, she moved her lips, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she still didn't say anything, probably because she didn't want to waste time with her, she just said coldly "No." Then, he cast a sideways glance at her and said, "After you deliver the refreshments, I will let Zhao Sishan leave the palace today."
Wen Mingtang stared at the expression on her face carefully for a moment, then smiled and said "OK".
After seeing Tong Xinyue, Wen Mingtang returned to the messy little kitchen. Tong Xinyue could only talk for a cup of tea, and the two maids who were scared by the bursting glutinous rice **** and shrank in the corner had already wiped the oil on the table. It's clean, obviously he is a diligent person on weekdays.
Seeing Wen Mingtang come back at this time, he hurriedly asked Wen Mingtang: "Master Wen is going to be busy?"
"There is still half an hour." Wen Mingtang said, looking at the desk that had been cleaned up by the two, thought for a while, and said, "If there is still time, we can make the most important wrapping of these fried rice **** first."
"What is the wrapped thing?" Hearing this, the two maidservants who were cleaning the kitchen paused, their faces full of puzzlement. .
Wen Mingtang smiled, and just took over the dry steamed buns brought from the imperial dining room in the morning, while peeling the skin of the steamed buns, he said: "Before frying in the oil pan, you have to coat the surface of the glutinous rice **** with a layer of egg liquid and steamed bun crumbs. Then put it into the oil pan, the temperature of the oil should not be too high, and it should be taken out immediately after frying until it is set. Only in this way... can the fried glutinous rice **** not fall apart and splash out."
Hearing the words "fall apart and splash out", the two maidservants laughed silly twice. It's not hard to imagine the egg liquid or something, but it's the first time I've heard of the wrapping made of steamed bun crumbs, so they glanced at each other , Put down what you were doing, and watch Wen Mingtang make this so-called wrap seriously.
Fried glutinous rice **** need to be coated with a layer of bread crumbs in modern times. Of course, there is no such thing as bread crumbs in Darong. Therefore, Wen Mingtang planned to use steamed bread crumbs to make bread crumbs. Cut the steamed buns that have been peeled off the surface into small cubes, put them in the pot, stir-fry quickly without oil, wait until the moisture in the steamed buns is dried, take them out again, and pour them into the gauze that has been spread out Then wrap the gauze, crush it with a rolling pin through the gauze, and get a homemade "bread crumb".
"The name of this thing is bread... oh no, steamed bread bran," Wen Mingtang poured the finished steamed bun bran into a jar, and said to the two maidservants, "All the things that are twisted, coated with egg liquid and rolled in this steamed bun bran." Putting it in the oil pan once in a circle will make the skin extra crispy, rich in flavor and unique in taste.”
The two maidservants firmly remembered this most important step and nodded.
At this moment, the confidants of the queen came over.
After washing his hands, Wen Mingtang followed the palace servants to meet the queen.
After some greetings, the queen said: "Master Wen, just now someone from the Qianyuan Hall asked for a special Osmanthus Longjing tea. I wonder if Master Wen can take a trip on behalf of the palace and deliver tea to the guests of Qianyuan Hall?"
Hearing this, Wen Mingtang couldn't help raising his eyebrows.
Seeing that she didn't respond immediately, the queen was also a little surprised. She pondered for a moment, and when she was about to speak, she heard Wen Mingtang say: "Don't dare to hide it from the empress, the celebrity who was in front of Concubine Jing came just now. I sent refreshments to the guests of the Qianyuan Hall, and after I delivered the refreshments, I allowed Zhao Sishan to leave the palace. It was too late to mention this matter to the empress, but it was unthinkable, and the empress also asked me to go to the Qianyuan Hall... "
She didn't hide the queen, she was in the queen's palace, Xinyue came here and it was a letter reported by the queen's people, even though she was far away from the guards in the queen's palace when she was talking to Xinyue, but...Wen Mingtang didn't think it was time to hide it, It's better to tell the truth and highlight the word "sincerity".
People are most afraid of wavering, being honest when they should be honest, and not hiding when they should be hiding.
Concubine Jing and Xinyue are going to attack her, so obviously they should keep it a secret, so... the empress, of course, should be honest. This was not only because of trust in Lin Fei, but also because Wen Mingtang didn't think that the wise queen would willingly let Concubine Jing stretch her hand to her place.
Seeing Wen Mingtang tell the story, the queen understood it. After thinking for a while, she pushed forward the tea she had made, and said, "So... you can bring tea and snacks to see Qianyuan Hall The... Lord Yasukuni."
After Wen Mingtang confessed everything, the queen didn't hide it any more. After raising her hand and waving her left and right, she said to Wen Mingtang: "My palace and His Majesty don't know the inside story of Wen Xuance's case back then, but when people fight, it's often The most vulnerable time."
Originally, she wanted to make a detour, but now, since she is a straightforward person, the queen herself opened her mouth to explain her intentions.
Wen Mingtang understood: So the tea was sent to her to provoke Yasukuni.
This is the Queen's intention, but I don't know what Xinyue's intention is? Although Xinyue said that the refreshment was not poisonous, Wen Mingtang kept an eye on it, and took the refreshment around the road, and asked the confidant next to the queen who was quite knowledgeable in medicine to check it out, and only after confirming that it was indeed non-toxic, Take tea and snacks to Qianyuan Hall.
…
Since the Empress and Concubine Jing delivered things at the same time, the Qianyuan Hall had already been arranged and there was no guard in sight. In this situation...Wen Mingtang, who walked in front of the Qianyuan Hall, felt a little inexplicably funny. Holding tea and snacks, he pushed open the half-hidden palace door.
When the scene in the hall appeared in front of his eyes, Wen Mingtang, who had always claimed to be calm, trembled in his hands, and the tea and snacks from different directions fell to the ground at the same time.
The sound of cracking teacups and porcelain plates awakened Duke Yasukuni who was sitting on the couch and dozing off with his chin propped up in the palace. He raised his eyes and looked towards the source of the sound. When he saw Wen Mingtang outside the palace, He frowned, and was about to speak, when he saw Wen Mingtang, who seemed to be stupefied, stretched out his hand and pointed behind him tremblingly, covered his lips and let out a cry of surprise.
This exclamation caused Lord Yasukuni to instinctively turn around and look in the direction she was pointing at. When he saw a bruised and purple face sticking out his tongue, his expression changed suddenly, and he exclaimed, "Normal style!"
