Chapter 1330 It's just an idea
"Isn't it just a live braised carp? Ask the imperial kitchen to make a braised carp and two or three lively loaches. Before serving the dish, put the live loaches into the braised carp."
Seeing the Crown Princess and Aunt Fu staring in amazement, Qiao Xuan felt a little embarrassed. She coughed and continued, "The loaches can't stand the heat, so they will naturally jump and struggle. When they move, the carp will also seem to move. Isn't this a 'live' braised carp?"
Aunt Fu: “Puff!”
Princess: "."
The Crown Princess couldn't help but smile, she raised her handkerchief to cover her face and coughed to hold back her laughter, "Is this even possible?"
Qiao Xuan: "This is just my little insight. I can't think of any other good ideas."
This idea was inspired by the loach drilling into tofu.
She has always been curious about this dish. When she was still at home in Shaoding Village, whenever she had an idea to make some delicious food, a bunch of people would agree and help her.
She has also tried the loach that burrows into tofu.
The loaches that Xiaoqi caught were big, full of energy, and very plump and tender.
It's a pity that this dish failed. The loach didn't even get into the tofu.
Although the loach and tofu soup was very delicious and rich and everyone drank it all in the end, it was not a successful loach burrowing tofu dish.
When Qiao Xuan heard about braised live carp, she suddenly thought of this dish.
Aunt Fu smiled and said, "Don't worry, Crown Princess. I also think this is a good idea. Humph, those Qingdi people are totally unreasonable. Why can't we take advantage of them? In any case, as long as we can get away with it, it'll be fine!"
The Crown Princess was speechless.
The main reason is that she has no other good solution.
And this matter can't be delayed any longer, we have to have a banquet tomorrow night. If the food is not served by then, how will the Qingdi people laugh at Daqin?
How will the Crown Prince, who is in charge of receiving Prince Qingdi and his entourage, and the Fourth Prince, the Second Prince and others take advantage of this situation to target them?
Thinking of this, the Crown Princess felt a little uneasy and upset.
"Forget it. I can't say for sure whether this method can be used or not. I will send someone to report it to the prince in detail later. Please make the decision!"
She looked at Qiao Xuan and smiled, "No matter what, Madam Shao has put in a lot of effort, and I am very pleased. Xiaozhen, go get the vermilion box on my dressing table."
Xiao Zhen responded and quickly brought a palm-sized vermilion wooden box inlaid with mother-of-pearl, which was very exquisite.
The Crown Princess motioned for her to present the box to Qiao Xuan and said with a smile, "This pair of gold hairpins is my favorite. I think they suit you very well, so I will give them to you."
Qiao Xuan thanked En and took it with both hands.
It doesn’t matter whether it is really the Crown Princess’s favorite thing. Since the Crown Princess said so, she will just take it.
The largest gem inlaid on this pair of gold hairpins is as big as a thumb nail, bright red, and embedded with many green bean-sized pearls. It is in the shape of a pair of butterflies in love with peonies, which looks very delicate and is a rare treasure.
The Crown Princess was distracted and upset at the moment, so naturally she had no intention of greeting Qiao Xuan anymore, and quickly ordered someone to send her back.
Lixia and Liqiu were anxious at home, and Qiao Xuan didn't take anyone with them.
Finally seeing Qiao Xuan coming back, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief.
"Ma'am, are you okay?"
"You scared me to death!"
Qiao Xuan smiled and said, "It's okay. Donggong is looking for me, so nothing will happen."
