Royal Little Fortune

Chapter 33 Are Watermelon Seeds Edible?
"Emperor Niang, don't worry, I will take out the eunuch who specializes in food tasting." The emperor waved his hand lightly and said: "I will leave the palace first, so don't worry about Huang Erniang."

"Emperor!" The queen mother hurriedly shouted, but saw that her son had already walked out quickly.

"Empress Dowager, the emperor just said, let the servants ask Ya Ruo Gege to recite the whole palace rules, what do you think?" Su Mo'er asked in a low voice.

"It's up to you." At this time, the queen mother was all focused on her son, deeply afraid that his son would make a mistake.

Su Mo'er has served the queen mother for many years, and she quickly realized it, and hurriedly said: "Madam, why don't we send some hidden guards out of the palace to protect the emperor."

"No." The queen mother shook her head and said in a deep voice: "It's not that you don't know the emperor's temper. Since he said that the arrangement has been made, we are naturally not allowed to intervene. If the Ai family doesn't trust him anymore, alas... the child has grown up, I really can't let my mother do it in the slightest, you send someone to wait at the gate of the palace, and the emperor will report immediately when he comes back. "

"Yes, servant girl knows, and servant girl will arrange it now." Su Mo'er quickly responded, and immediately went down to make arrangements.

The Empress Dowager is now in a dilemma. She is worried that her son will be in danger when he goes out of the palace, but also worried that if she intervenes, her son will be unhappy and the relationship between mother and child will be affected.

In the past, my son listened to himself and Dorgon in everything, and rarely refuted, but after Dorgon died, his son seemed to be a different person, he didn't even listen to her words, and gradually became It is even more taboo for her, the empress mother, to meddle in his affairs.

Today's son is in control of the power and the court is arbitrary. He will only discuss with her, the empress mother, when encountering very difficult things. At other times, he will not say a word at all.

She knew what kind of temperament her son was, so even if she was worried, she didn't dare to send someone out to follow him.

After Su Mo'er went down for a while, she hurried in again, watched the queen mother bless her body and said, "I would like to report to your majesty, when the emperor left the palace, he brought Lord Soni's eldest son, Gabra, with him, so your majesty can rest assured." gone."

After hearing this, the queen mother let out a long sigh of relief and said: "Fortunately, there is Gabra here. This kid has always been stable under his father's teaching, and he is very familiar with everything in Beijing. With him reminding him, the Ai family can rest assured." gone."

"It's just the empress dowager... King Xiangjun also followed." Su Mo'er whispered.

After hearing this, the Empress Dowager's expression changed, and she said angrily: "This Fulin, Aijia has told him many times before, don't get too close to Bomu Bogor, but he just doesn't listen, and goes out of the palace for a private visit. You actually took him with you, aren't you afraid of being tricked?"

"Empress Dowager, how should we deal with it?" Su Mo'er asked hastily.

The Queen Mother said with a sullen face: "Send someone to Aijia to keep an eye on Na Muzhong. If she makes any changes, you should immediately pass on the order of Aijiayi to have the admiral of the Nine Gates lead the infantry battalion to seal the capital and escort the emperor back to the palace. Also... order the guards in the palace to strictly guard the gates of the palaces, and from now on, no one is allowed to move around in the palace."

"It's the slave who knows." Su Mo'er nodded quickly.

Just as the queen mother was waiting in full force, the emperor was taking Bomu Bogoer, Gabula, and a few talented students whom he had chosen from the new Jinshi this year in the middle of the capital. In the most prestigious restaurant - Bazhen Restaurant, listening to a little song and eating the famous dishes here is a pleasure.

Regardless of whether other people are comfortable or not, he is very comfortable as the emperor anyway.

……

In the small dining room in the south courtyard of Guiyuan, Ya Ruo was busy with Baolan and Yingge, and the cooks and nurses who were serving at the side wanted to help, but found that they couldn't intervene at all, and besides... there was no Ge Ge They didn't dare to do what they ordered.

"Ruoruo, it's only been a while since lunch, and you've come to this dining room again, are you hungry?" Su Shi wanted to urge her daughter to recite the palace rules, but she didn't know that she waited in the small study for a while, but she didn't get it. Daughter, she had no choice but to come out and look for it herself.

"No, my daughter is not hungry. My daughter came here to get some snacks. When I am reciting the palace rules and regulations these days, my daughter can take it out to coax her mouth, so that the reciting is not too boring." Ya Ruo replied with a smile, Because she was busy, she didn't look up.

"What else do you make? Just tell mother what you want to eat, and mother will make it for you." Su Shi said softly as she walked over.

Ya Ruo laughed when she heard the words: "Of course there is no need to talk about my mother's cooking skills. It is a masterpiece. My daughter still thinks that when she is free, she will learn from you every day."

"You are a prince, why do you learn these things?" Su Shi shook her head lightly, and when she reached her daughter, she realized that she was frying something in the wok. It was black and seemed familiar, but she would think about it for a while. Can't figure out what it is.

"You don't have too many skills to overwhelm you. Besides... how good it is to be able to cook, you won't die of hunger." Ya Ruo laughed, and her little thick arm was vigorously turning the shovel in the pot.

"What is this?" Su pointed to the contents of the pot and asked with a surprised expression.

"I'm making fried watermelon seeds." Ya Ruo touched the sweat on her face and said with a smile.

"Fried watermelon seeds, can watermelon seeds be eaten?" Su looked at her daughter suspiciously.

This girl is getting more and more eccentric, and she and her prince are shocked by what she often says and does.

Look at her daughter's gesture of frying those watermelon seeds with a spatula, she really looks like that, people who don't know may think that this girl has worked in the dining room for several years, in fact, her daughter knows Well, this girl doesn't know how to work in the dining room at all.

Then why is she doing so smoothly now?Do you have a talent for cooking?

"Of course watermelon seeds can be eaten. This watermelon seed is different from the watermelon seeds in the big watermelon we usually eat. There are also many varieties of watermelon. This one has less flesh and more seeds... You can treat it as A special kind of watermelon. Anyway, this kind of watermelon is almost inedible, but the seeds inside are delicious. Although the fried watermelon seeds are not as crispy and delicious as sunflower seeds, they have a special taste, and it is a very special taste, daughter It will be fried soon." Ya Ruo said with a smile.

She has been preparing for this bowl of fried watermelon seeds for several days.

Before she sent someone to look at the roasted seeds and nuts shops on the street, but there was no one selling fried watermelon seeds, so she had to do it herself. After sending people around for a few days, she finally bought a small pot of watermelon seeds.

After all, people don't fry them up and eat them. The watermelon seeds that are kept will be used as seeds next year. It's really not easy to get these.

After processing the carefully selected, large and plump watermelon seeds, she put the watermelon seeds into the pot, added water, and cooked them with soy sauce, fennel, cinnamon and other spices.

Stir fry when the water is almost dry. Now that the water has been completely fried, it will be out of the pan soon.
