Yan Langqing was able to stand out at the Wanshou Banquet because of the development of the "Wanfu Meat" dish, and was called into the palace to be an imperial cook by the emperor, but it turned out that this so-called famous dish was actually she stole someone else's. Hard work. Although Lin Dan has no evidence, she can use a few pieces of tofu to completely restore the color and fragrance of Wanfu meat, and it is better than Yan Langqing's, which is enough to prove the authenticity of her words.
What's more, both of her father's apprentices are chefs in the Yan's restaurant, and they have a lot of money every month. As long as they are asked to torture them, it is not difficult to find the truth.
However, the emperor didn't care about these. He is the lord of the world, and whoever he wants to protect can be easily touched by others. So Yan Langqing's crime of deceiving the king will be taken away without asking, and the competition has ended rashly. Fortunately, Lin Dan didn't care about this, wrapped the golden knife and the recipe in red silk, and left the Xiangyuan without hurries.
Tang Jiu whispered behind her: "No wonder you told me not to worry about it. Have you already thought of a countermeasure?"
Before Lin Dan could answer, Wei Yuanhou had strode over and laughed: "Treasurer Lin, I was thirty-nine this year. I had a wife and died. I have no children or concubines in my family. I have power and power. Ability, if you don’t dislike it, how about a hundred-year agreement with me?"
Lin Dan looked at him in surprise, unable to speak for a long time.
Tang Jiu frowned fiercely, and said, "Master Hou, don't make such jokes indiscriminately. Beware of tainting treasurer Lin Qingyu!"
"When did Benhou joke? Benhou is serious. If you can marry such a smart, virtuous and virtuous woman like shopkeeper Lin, I don't know how many years of cultivation the blessing of Benhou. Tang Shizi, you are so worried. , Don’t you think too much about shopkeeper Lin?"
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Tang Jiu hurriedly turned to look at Lin Dan, but saw that the other party had been pulled aside by Prince Cheng and Prince Gong to speak, and then boarded the carriage and left without reluctance. For ordinary people, marrying into a high school seems to be a way of luck, but it seems to be a trouble for her.
Except for her culinary studies, she seems to have little interest in everything in the world. This kind of desireless but extremely serious contradictory posture deeply attracts the people around her. Tang Jiu looked straight at the carriage going away, his expression extremely frustrated. Wei Yuanhou turned the finger on his hand, his eyes were all inevitable.
At the same time, Yan Langqing was kneeling down beside the emperor in fear, and the other party slowly took apart a gray water rice dumpling, eating with relish, with a very enjoyable expression.
"I didn't expect that the rice dumplings soaked in gray water would be so delicious. After I went back, I asked the people in the imperial dining room to think about it and make them as they are." Yan Langqing was by his side, but he never mentioned that she should restore the gray water dumplings. It can be seen that the match just now, and the subsequent disputes, have greatly reduced his perception of Yan Langqing.
Yan Langqing turned pale at the moment.
When the carriage passed Qingyun Lane, the emperor slowly said, "Stop and send a few people to seal up the Yan's restaurant."
Yan Langqing suddenly raised her head, showing horror.
The emperor just glanced at her and smiled casually: "Why, you preach the imperial decree and deceive the market, don't you think I just let it go, right?" As he spoke, a desperate and depraved man came from the carriage behind. Shouted and repeatedly asked the guard why he wanted to close his shop. The guard pointed to the carriage in front, saying that it was the emperor's meaning, and his tongue seemed to be taken away by a cat, and he was instantly dumb.
The emperor snorted coldly, making Yan Langqing tremble with fright. He thought he had completely lost the Sacred Heart, but unexpectedly the emperor took her hand and said in a slow tone: "You have been in the palace for seven or eight years. You can cook the delicacies of the mountains and the sea, and the famous chefs from all over the world can send you whatever skills you want to learn. I will let them teach you what skills you want. Logically speaking, your attainments will certainly not be worse than those of Lin Dan, who was born in the countryside. But you can take a look. , You still lost to her today, and even your signature dishes were stolen or copied from others. There is no characteristic of your own at all. It can be seen that you are ultimately short of talent in cooking."
Yan Langqing was too much to raise her head by the emperor's words, her pale face flushed little by little, and her heart was embarrassed and ashamed.
The emperor turned around and said: "Since you don't have the talent to be a cook, you should enter the palace and be our woman. I will not treat you badly."
Yan Langqing suddenly raised her head, looked at the emperor in shock, struggling for a long time, and finally nodded. She has nothing now. She is still making enemies in the cook world. Even the storefront has been sealed by the royal family. Where can she survive after leaving the palace? However, everything is different when you become a mother. She used to serve people, but people will serve her in the future. Why not do it?
The emperor touched her delicate face, acting as if he was very gentle, but what he said was full of coldness, "Since you have entered the palace, you will let your family rest in peace. If you cause me trouble, I will not be merciful. ."
Yan Langqing trembled fiercely, and quickly nodded in fear. In a trance, she did not realize that the attitude of the emperor who was responsive to her in the past and caring for her had completely changed. He originally thought that Yan Langqing was a simple and kind girl, the last piece of pure land in this dirty palace, but it turned out that she was no different from others. She also calculates, plunders, and bullies the weak, and her family is vulgar, ignorant, and domineering, making him even more annoying.
The emperor never believed in the phrase "get out of the silt but not stain". People trapped in the quagmire will only become filthy, because they need to survive, so they will do whatever they can, just like himself. So in an instant, he completely abandoned his longing and favor for Yan Langqing, and only treated her as an ordinary hunter, hitting a stick to give a sweet jujube, tame her with the method of tame animals, and wait to eat In the mouth, the freshness has passed, and she will not be any different from those concubines who have fallen out of favor.
But Yan Langqing didn’t guess the emperor’s mind. He thought that she was always the most special one in the other’s heart, so she took the courage to say: "Your Majesty, can I stay at home for a while? My father is still unhealed. , I want to wait for him to get well before returning to the palace."
The emperor took a deep look at her, and nodded without exception after a long while.
…………
Here, Lin Dan has already returned to Sanchakou Hutong. Just after getting off the carriage, he saw a few young and middle-aged men greeted with overjoy: "Treasurer Lin, you are finally back! When are you going to open the shop?"
"No shop, I will leave the capital soon." Lin Dan waved his hand lightly.
Several men showed expressions of bereavement and wanted to persuade them again, but they saw an eunuch leading a group of guards coming over, saying: "You are Chef Lin Danlin? You won the game today, the emperor Give you a plaque, please keep it."
Lin Dan discovered that the two guards standing behind him were carrying a square plaque wrapped in silk and satin. After opening the silk and satin, six characters of dragons and phoenix dancing in gold lacquer were written on it, and the emperor was also covered. Private printing.
It's a pity that these words are no longer rare for Lin Dan, but she still took the plaque, sent away the eunuchs and guards with red envelopes, closed the shop door and went to quietly pack up. The men standing outside the door were completely dumbfounded, and said, "My dear, shopkeeper Lin turned out to be the descendant of the Golden Sword Imperial Kitchen. It's amazing! What we eat every day is the imperial meal!"
"Don't be a fucking dream! Didn't you hear me? Shopkeeper Lin is not planning to open a shop here! He is a descendant of the Golden Sword Imperial Kitchen, and he is going to Xicheng to open a shop. Who is patient to cook us two copper plates before selling a bowl of noodles? The other men were full of regret. If they had known that Shopkeeper Lin was the descendant of the Imperial Kitchen, they would not have cherished her cooking so much. Now that I think about it, shopkeeper Lin's craftsmanship and character are excellent, and she can open a store in Nancheng, is it not the blessing of Nancheng people? It's a pity they don't know how to cherish good luck.
Lin Dan packed his luggage and went straight out of the capital. Before arriving at his home, he saw Qi standing at the intersection and looking out, his face full of worry. She never thought that her daughter would win, but hoped that she would come back safely. So, when Lin Dan pulled away the silk cloth and gave her the recipe and the golden knife, she opened her eyes wide and covered her mouth, and she couldn't recover for a long time.
"This, what is this?" she asked incredulously.
Lin Dan handed the two things over and said with a chuckle: "Mother, I won my father's things back. You take them away."
"You won, you won? Did you really win?" Qi Shi kept stroking the golden knife and the recipe, gradually laughing and crying again. Over the years, my daughter has traveled north and south, wandering, suffering too much and suffering too much, she feels distressed!
Lin Dan hugged the Qi family and patted gently, his voice was very calm, "Mother, this is the matter, let's go to other places. The world is vast outside, and there are many food waiting for us."
Qi's sobbing nodded, his eyes filled with joy.
…………
It's not easy to go out these years. You have to prepare a lot of materials, plan the route, and get directions. It's not that you can go. Lin Dan stayed in the outskirts of Beijing for more than a month. Seeing that everything was ready and ready to go, there was a bad news in the capital. The Hou Mansion of Yongding was confiscated for colluding with foreign thief, and Concubine Tang was also beaten into the cold palace and could not turn over, for fear of extinction. Scourge.
Seeing that the situation had changed drastically, it might be implicated if he didn't leave, Lin Dan stayed instead, only sent the Qi family away, and then sent a small servant to the city to inquire about the news. The situation developed very rapidly, but within three days, the charges were settled. The female family members of the Yongding Houfu were exiled for three thousand miles, and all the men were sentenced to beheading.
A few days later, even worse news came. The 68 female families of the Yongding Hou Mansion were unbearable and all hanged on the beam, including Concubine Tang in the Leng Palace. The emperor was very angry about this, and he had to ask Zhan Tang Jiu before Qiuhou, as if he was very urgent. On the day of beheading, Lin Dan hurried to the practice ground to see Tang Jiu off with a huge food box.
