Chapter 584 Nazheng
The woman should have tasted it again, and couldn't swallow it, "My God, how can you eat this? It's really poverty that limits imagination. They haven't eaten good things, so they regard this kind of pastry as a treasure?"
At this time, the three of them recognized who the other party was. It was a coincidence that Xiao Changxuan and Xue Wanqing came and sat behind the three of them, separated by a vine shelf, which was really disappointing.
Linghua thought that the pastry bought by the other party was not the same as the three of them, so she turned her head secretly, and took a look through the gap between the leaves. It was clearly the same pastry, maybe it came out of the same pot, but Xue Wanqing But I dislike it very much.
"Your Highness, Qing'er remembered that Qing'er can open a pastry shop in the capital, but it's a pity that Qing'er doesn't have so many resources in his hands."
Xiao Changxuan still had some resources in his hand, so he hurriedly said, "Qing'er, if you want to open a pastry shop, I will help you."
"Yeah! But, I want to go back and try first, and make some myself."
In ancient times, there were no ovens, egg beaters, mixers, and even cows in the capital. If you want to make Western-style pastries in batches, you suddenly find that you don’t have the conditions.
But Xue Wanqing still decided to give it a try. If she succeeded, even if she didn't open a shop, it would still be a resource for her, and she could use it to make friends with dignitaries.
Xie Zhiwei's heart moved. The cakes they ate can be said to be the best taste. This chef was brought by Xiao Xun from the north. After she planned to marry into Prince Xiang's mansion, let her get used to the taste of cakes in the north. Before the wedding date, the master came to Qingle Tea House to sell pastries for a few days.
This master is a monk who was a fire head monk in Tianxiong Temple. Master Yunde recommended it to Xiao Xun. When this person was around, the vegetarian restaurant in Tianxiong Temple was said to be famous far and near.
Xue Wanqing is still disgusted, Xie Zhiwei really wants to know what kind of cakes she will make differently, so that she can know where Xue Wanqing came from?
Lou Kingdom’s envoys were finally sent away. On March 20th, another good news came from the Northland. His Royal Highness Prince Chen personally led his troops to attack Youzhou City. Most of the country has already fallen into the hands of King Chen, and the court needs to send civil servants to manage this lost and regained country.
The sixteen prefectures of Yanyun were named Hebei, and it was Xiao Xun's vassal land.
At this time, Xiao Changxuan had already arrived at Pingjiang Mansion and was living in the yamen. He got the news from the mansion newspaper and asked for a map. Looking at the Yanyun sixteen prefectures that were emphatically marked, his eyes were red. .
Emperor Taizu once left a legacy: "Dayong's lords should be entrusted without tin land, nobles should not be with the people, food and salary should not be in charge of affairs", but there is one exception. If the subjects of Dayong can regain the lost land, "Yan According to the "Sixteen States", if the descendants of the Xiao family are named princes, they will guard the country.
For a long time, the Dayong royal family has also been very worried. It is not the Xiao family who regained the Yanyun sixteen states, but the king with a different surname. After all, it is someone else sleeping soundly on the side of the couch.
At this time, it was not Xiao Changxuan who was most depressed, but the people from Beiqi. They got the information that Prince Chen had clearly appeared in Dayong Capital, and someone saw it with their own eyes. When they started to attack, they found that Prince Chen was at the forefront.
But no one who has ever fought against Prince Chen can forget those eyes that can invigorate the soul.
Those are a pair of beautiful phoenix eyes, which seem to have a small sun in them, but as long as they are illuminated by the light of this small sun, they will not be able to live past the next glance.
If not, everyone in Beiqi would doubt whether Prince Chen has a twin brother.
March 26th was the day of Nazheng. On the first day, Xiao Xun rushed back to the capital from the west, but neither Xiliang nor Beiqi people dared to act rashly.
The dowry came out from Prince Xiang's Mansion, the first dowry had just entered the gate of Xie's house, and the last one had not yet left the Prince Xiang's Mansion.
The red carrying box, the red silk on the carrying box is embroidered with gold thread, and the pattern of dragon and phoenix showing auspiciousness is golden and extremely luxurious.
Inside the first one is the golden album and gold seal that canonize Xie Zhiwei as the prince and concubine. This is a symbol of power and attracts people's attention.
The second one is the prince's concubine's crown dress, the top is the emerald nine-zhai crown, the left and right are two golden phoenixes holding east pearls, and the two eyes adorned with rubies are shining brightly.
Underneath is a neatly folded red shirt with Sihe Ruyi cloud pattern, gold embroidered cloud and phoenix couplet bead pattern Qingxia pea, gold 钑 cloud and phoenix pendant, gold embroidered group phoenix pattern peach red beanie, gold embroidered group phoenix chest and back Qingju gown, Yugugui Put it in a yellow brocade sleeve and put it aside.
A total of two hundred and fifty-six dowry gifts filled Xie's house from the main courtyard to the courtyard, to the main hall and the passage behind, and every box contained either rare treasures or built-in items, even if they had money, Can't buy it outside.
"Oh, before people mentioned that there was a princess in the family, and when they talked about the world they saw, they said it was a sky-shattering wealth. I was thinking, what is a sky-shattering wealth, I just saw it today. .” Qian was so excited, it seemed that these dowry gifts were all for her.
Mrs. Yuan was sweating profusely from anxiety. The dowry at home had just been counted, and there were two hundred and fifty-six liters of it, and there was no place to put it. This is all right, and another two hundred and fifty-six liters came. Go ask the forbidden army to help watch it?
Yuan Shi went to Xie Yuanbai to discuss, and said her scruples, "These are all built-in things, and some are rewarded by the empress dowager and empress. If they are lost, it is not a matter of money."
Xie Yuanbai thought for a while, "Except for the gold book and gold seal, and the crown dress to be worn on the big wedding day, all other betrothal gifts should be packed up. After Mei Mei gets married, let Mei Mei take it back and keep it as her private house?"
Yuan Shi also thinks this is very good, Prince Xiang's mansion is really generous, this dowry is really too kind, if it can be kept for Mei Mei as a private house, it is really a great thing.
Originally, after accepting the levy, there was an application period, but Qin Tianjian was already optimistic about the auspicious day, so he skipped this period.
In the capital, since the dowry was given by Prince Xiang's Mansion, Prince Chen's wedding was talked about every day.
In the blink of an eye, April 16th was the day when Xie's family gave the dowry. The dowry was carried out from Xie's house, and the streets between Xie's house and Prince Xiang's Mansion were connected into patches of red. Ten miles of red makeup was nothing more than that.
In the fourth prince's mansion, Xue Wanqing was making a plate of cakes. It was not very successful, but the taste was not bad. A little rare fruit was added on it, which had a slightly sour taste. Said, "Concubine Shu, it's delicious, much better than last time."
Xue Wanqing was too lazy to talk, and she felt more and more frustrated. In such a poor and old world, it was impossible to eat even a bite of pastry. Without an egg beater, the eggs would not be able to froth. The dough that comes out always has a sour taste. Without a rice cooker or an oven, there is no constant temperature. How can she make cakes or bread?
Today's update!
Well, the big wedding is finally here!
Dear friends, the votes in your hands can be voted out, yum, I love you!
