In the end, Murong Che agreed to stay.
The emperor Murong Qingli used both soft and hard tactics on him. What could he do if he disagreed?
After coming out of the Yangxin Palace, Murong Che still had a bitter face, and the word "unhappy" was written all over his body.
"Your Highness, are you coming back?" Zhou Zhuan, who was serving him, asked in a low voice.
"Why are you going back? To the cold palace! I want to see what kind of abilities the Concubine Si that my royal brother is going to take out of the palace has." Murong Che snorted.
If Murong Qingli hadn't told him that he would bring Concubine Si from the cold palace with him on this trip, he probably wouldn't be as unhappy as he is now.
The emperor's brother is really something. He would rather take a woman who is a hindrance with him than take him with him. He doesn't accept it!
"Your Highness, are you thinking that this Lady Si is the sister of the third young master of the Si family?" Zhou Zhuan asked as a reminder.
"Si Muyu's sister? That's right, how could I have forgotten about this?"
"If that's the case, you should go and see it."
After saying that, Murong Che opened the fan in his hand and walked towards the cold palace in a lazy and unrestrained manner.
What is Simuqiao doing now?
She was packing her bag for going out tomorrow.
According to Murong Qingli, the place they were going to was Guozhou, which was neither close nor far from the capital.
If we ride at a faster speed, the journey will only take three to five days.
But if she remembered correctly, Guozhou was suffering from a drought at the moment, which meant that after the drought passed, food and other things might be a problem.
So after packing a few changes of clothes and toiletries, Si Muqiao began to consider bringing some more snacks.
At worst, you can kill time on the road~
What are some snacks that can be stored for about a week?
Melon seeds, snacks, preserved fruits, dried meat, etc.
You can ask the people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs to send some of these things over directly.
If so, it would be nice to have pork jerky, instant noodles and spicy and sour chicken feet.
Yes, whether it is pork jerky, instant noodles, or spicy and sour chicken feet, she can make them by herself!
Although homemade instant noodles are certainly not as delicious and convenient as those bought nowadays, they are definitely better than nothing, right?
Moreover, the recipes in her mind told her that these three things were not difficult to make.
Si Muqiao is a procrastinator on weekdays, but when it comes to food, she always has her way.
Thinking of this, she rushed into the kitchen!
When Tangyuan and Shuxue and Yingyu who were working in the kitchen heard that Simuqiao was going to cook again, they became nervous as if they were facing a great enemy!
In just one day, their master had already run to the kitchen for the third time.
The first time I was cutting meat, I cut my hand.
The second time he started lighting the fire, he almost set the kitchen on fire.
What's going on? It's happening again?
What does she want to burn this time?
Under the strong eye hints from Shuxue and Yingyu, Tangyuan spoke.
"Master, if you want to eat something, just tell Shu Xue and Ying Yu and let them make it. Why do you have to do it yourself? It's more important to recover from your injuries!"
"Yes, master, just follow your instructions and we will do it." Shu Xue said.
"Yeah, yes, yes." Ying Yu nodded in agreement.
"What? Are you afraid that I will burn down the kitchen again? Don't worry, I know what I am doing."
"Believe me, it will definitely succeed this time!" Si Muqiao said with a guarantee.
Hearing her speak so confidently, Tangyuan and others became even more panicked.
But what can they do? They can't force their master to stop her, right?
There was no choice, the three of them could only grit their teeth, with a solemn expression as if they were about to go to the battlefield, and stand beside Si Muqiao with their eyes wide open, ready to rescue people at any time.
Si Muqiao saw the actions of the three of them, but didn't say much.
Just wait and see!
Everything was just an accident before, but now it’s time to show the real skills!
The recipe in her mind told her that to make instant noodles, she needed to have dried noodles on hand.
There is no time to make the noodles by hand now.
Simuqiao then ordered Xiao Fuzi and Xiao Luzi to go to the imperial kitchen to ask for some stretched thin noodles. It would be best if the noodles were thinner, but not too thin, and the quantity should be large.
In addition, I would like some chicken feet. If they are chicken feet, they can be raw.
During this time, Si Muqiao started making pork jerky.
There were pig's shanks and tenderloins in the kitchenette.
Si Muqiao chose the pork tenderloin. After washing it, she picked up a big knife and prepared to start chopping the meat.
Tangyuan, Shuxue and others saw her raising the knife and sharpening it towards the pork, and they spoke immediately.
"Master, let me do it. I am very strong."
"I am quite strong."
"Okay then, you guys do the cutting!" Si Muqiao felt uneasy at their pleading gazes, so he nodded and put down the knife in his hand.
Mincing the meat into minced meat is an extremely boring and physically demanding task.
She secretly fed Tangyuan water with powerful pills added to it, so he had more strength than others.
So when she was chopping meat with the big knife, she didn't feel too tired.
But Shuxue and Yingyu are different.
Although they were low-ranking palace maids who did rough work before, they did a lot of hard labor.
But after chopping with the knife non-stop, my arms were so sore.
Si Muqiao suggested that the two of them take a break and she would do it.
But the two of them gritted their teeth and refused to let go.
Si Muqiao: “…”
Hey, how do I do this?
It would be nice to have an automatic meat grinder.
By the way, maybe that thing can be made?
Although there was no electricity in ancient times, there were still small blades and other things.
If you really want to make a manual meat grinder, it shouldn't be too difficult, right?
Thinking of this, Si Muqiao gave orders directly.
"Shuxue, go call Xiaoshouzi and Xiaoxizi over."
"Yingyu, go see if Xiao Fuzi and Xiao Luzi are back?"
At Si Muqiao's order, Shu Xue and Ying Yu naturally nodded in response, then looked at Tang Yuan with an instructing look before leaving.
Seeing that Simuqiao really picked up the knife to chop the meat, Tangyuan hurriedly said, "Master, don't move, let me do it!"
"Tangyuan, have you forgotten my ability to break rocks with my chest?" Simuqiao asked.
"I haven't forgotten, but..."
"Then shut up and chop the meat."
"oh."
In the kitchen, the master and servant wielded big knives and chopped the meat into minced meat, which was then set aside.
Si Muqiao added appropriate amounts of light soy sauce, cooking wine, pepper, chili powder and sugar to the chopped pork.
Of course, in order to make the pork taste more fragrant, smooth and elastic, she also added an appropriate amount of honey.
Tangyuan was stunned and felt that her master was wasting pork.
It’s just good meat, but sweet honey and sugar are added to it?
Is this reasonable?
Although she thought so, she didn't dare to say it.
Afraid of dampening the master's enthusiasm.
After Si Muqiao put the seasonings in, he asked Tangyuan to help mix the minced meat and various seasonings together.
