Chapter 157 Tang Zhan is pardoned
Xie Yanyan has no feelings for Jiang Shuang, and would only applaud if she was driven away. In troubled times, people like Jiang Shuang are too likely to do bad things.
At noon, she went to the large dormitory where the exile team lived, looked at the ragged, pale-faced and skinny prisoners, and said, "From today on, we will restore the soap box exchange for food. You can make it, and I will accept any that meet the quality standards."
Upon hearing this, everyone burst into tears with excitement.
More than two months after Xie Yanyan and Xie Anfeng left, no one could say with a clear conscience, "I make a living by my own ability." Without Xie Yanyan to collect the boxes, it would be useless even if they made flowers out of them.
Without Xie Yanyan, they are nothing.
That lonely girl is the real living Bodhisattva.
After Xie Yanyan finished his announcement, he was about to turn around and leave, but he stopped again, looked at Xie Qingmu's family and said, "I won't accept Xie Qingmu's family's boxes."
Xie Qingmu yelled, "Why? Third Miss Xie, I am your third uncle, your real uncle!"
"You are a bastard, are you worthy of being my third uncle?"
"Well, then I can't make a living by making boxes?"
"We won't accept your boxes!"
After Xie Yanyan finished speaking, he said to everyone, "Be careful, don't let them destroy the boxes you made."
Suddenly, no one wanted to live next to them anymore.
Xie Tingting wiped the blood from her nose caused by Xie Qingmu and Fang, and laughed: "Xie Qingmu, your days of riding on others' heads are over since you left the Marquis' Mansion. What's the point of living for a parasite like you!"
Xie Qingmu and Xie Tingting fought again.
Xie Yanyan didn't look at it and she left.
She has to continue making soap. The world is going to be in chaos, so she should make as much money as she can. She doesn't know when she will need the big money, so it won't hurt to save more.
She wants to make money and win people's hearts.
After being hung up and beaten for half a year, the self-esteem of these convicts has all been shattered to pieces. It is just right for her to take them in now.
Coming out of the big bunk bed, she suddenly stopped.
Just now she went to the big bunk bed and all the prisoners were there except Tang Zhan.
At lunch, Liu Mingjie came back from exploring outside and brought back a few lotus roots, which he gave to Xie Yanyan: "This is sold by an old farmer. I saw that they are new lotus roots, so I bought them. Miss Xie, please see what dish you can make with them."
There were a lot of lotus roots, very fresh and tender. Xie Yanyan said, "I'll make a cold dish and use the rest to make fried lotus root dumplings?"
Liu Mingjie said: "I don't quite understand, just do what you say."
Xie Yanyan looked at a pile of lotus roots, thinking quickly of recipes.
She wants to eat lotus root in three ways.
Select lotus roots with longer nodes to prepare glutinous rice.
The most tender ones are used to make cold dishes.
Cut the other pieces into strips and prepare to fry the lotus root cakes.
Soak the round glutinous rice in water for an hour, peel and wash the lotus root with nodules, cut it horizontally at one end one inch long, fill the lotus root with the soaked glutinous rice, then connect the two parts and secure them with a toothpick.
She took out the red clay stove that Zhou Shaoyu gave her, and directly took out a pressure cooker from the space.
Put half a pot of water in the pot, place the braided lotus root in the water, the water must be more than half a pound higher, add enough white sugar, rock sugar, osmanthus sugar, and then add a bag of red yeast rice.
Press high pressure for an hour and a half, take out the red yeast rice bag, add honey, and continue to reduce the juice until it becomes viscous.
Take out the glutinous rice and lotus root and let it cool.
Cut into slices, place on a plate, add a little soup from the pot and pour over the cut glutinous rice lotus root.
Glutinous rice lotus root, done!
After that, cut the onion into shreds, slice the tender lotus root and blanch it, soak and cook the fungus, cut the scallion into shreds, mix them together, add minced ginger, minced garlic, soy sauce, oyster sauce, vinegar, chicken essence, and chili oil.
Cold lotus root salad, done!
What's left is fried lotus root dumplings.
Suddenly, a group of people came to the door of the inn. There were more than a dozen men on horseback, surrounding a luxurious carriage.
The carriage stopped at the door of the inn. In the rain, a man opened an oil-paper umbrella and waited beside the carriage. The curtain was opened and a white-faced man walked out in a pretentious manner.
Xie Yanyan put down the lotus root in his hand and looked at the group of people through the window.
The white-faced man, is he the same white-faced man that Tang Ranran mentioned?
"Where is Lord Li Rong?"
The white-faced man had a large umbrella on his head and a scroll in his hand. Xie Yanyan immediately thought of eunuchs and imperial edicts.
Li Rong didn't expect that he was looking for him, so he came out immediately and said with a bow, "I am Li Rong, may I ask?"
The man said in a hoarse voice, "I am Murong Cong, the attendant of His Royal Highness Prince Xi. Please ask the prisoner Tang Xiaolin and his family to come out to receive the order."
Li Rong was stunned for a moment. King Xi's attendant came to announce the decree?
Murong Cong asked several tall guards around him to show the token to Li Rong, and it was indeed the token of King Xi.
Li Rong was not afraid: "May I ask, Eunuch Murong, was this imperial edict issued by His Majesty? Didn't it say that His Majesty was unconscious?"
Murong Cong suddenly became annoyed and asked sinisterly, "Your Majesty is in a coma, and Prince Xi is acting as regent on behalf of the emperor. Do you have any objection?"
The guards beside him shouted, "Why don't you quickly call Tang Xiaolin and his grandson to come and receive the order?"
Li Rong was confused, so he went to call Tang Xiaolin. No matter what, whether it was an imperial edict or an order from King Xi, he couldn't afford to offend.
Tang Xiaolin was also confused. What did it mean? Why did King Xi want to see us, the grandparents and grandchildren?
He looked at Tang Zhan, but Tang Zhan said nothing.
"You go and take a look first. If it is not a serious imperial edict, you can refuse it. Lao Zhao and I will block it for you." Li Rong said, pressing the Yanling knife.
Old Zhao was in charge of Tang Xiaolin's group of prisoners. He also said to Tang Xiaolin, "Don't be afraid. Third Miss Xie and General Xie have the tokens of His Majesty and the Crown Prince. Even if a fight breaks out, we are not afraid of anyone."
Tang Xiaolin took Tang Zhan and Tang Ranran out. In the porch at the entrance of the inn, Murong Cong was standing among a group of people with an arrogant look on his face.
"Tang Xiaolin and Tang Zhan, please accept the order." After confirming Tang Xiaolin's identity, Murong Cong read out the order in a pinched voice.
The convicts all ran out from the big bunk beds to watch the excitement and huddled together.
Tang Xiaolin, Tang Zhan and Tang Ranran knelt down to receive the order.
"The Emperor, by the Mandate of Heaven, proclaims: After investigation, it is confirmed that Tang Xiaolin and the criminal Tang Feihu are five generations apart, and are not part of the exiled clan implicated in Tang Feihu's case. Tang Xiaolin, Tang Zhan, and Tang Ranran are pardoned and their civilian status is restored immediately... Tang Zhan is appointed as a fourth-rank imperial guard... I decree this!"
"Tang Xiaolin, King Xi thinks of the suffering you and your grandchildren have endured along the way, so he has specially awarded you 500 taels of silver to help you and your grandchildren return to your hometown."
The convicts were stunned.
Li Rong and Lao Zhao were stunned.
Xie Anfeng, who was burning the fire, stood at the window and watched with Xie Yanyan in silence.
Xie Yanyan looked at Tang Xiaolin and Tang Zhan indifferently.
It seemed as if time had stopped in the entire yard.
"Tang Xiaolin, Tang Zhan, why don't you thank me?" Murong Cong said with a smile, "Your Highness Prince Xi, if there is any mistake, we must correct it. He specially asked us to hurry up and announce the decree."
Tang Xiaolin said "Thank you, Lord" and stretched out his hand to receive the order.
Tang Zhan pulled Tang Xiaolin away and said coldly to Murong Cong: "We will not accept this imperial decree."
