Nightwatcher Chapter 174: Essence of Chicken


   Looking at Da Tsing Yi’s back, Yuan Jingdi has no expression on his face, like a cold sculpture.

  There are 24 palaces in the inner court of the imperial palace, where the concubines and children of Emperor Yuan Jing lived. The harem of Emperor Yuan Jing was not lively at all, and Chu Xiu Palace had not accommodated young and beautiful women for more than a decade.

   Wei Yuan came to the lord of the harem, outside the palace of the queen, after passing the message, he entered the palace and saw the queen sitting on the collapse.

  , the queen of the world of maternal rites, came in and reduced a lot, and her sleek and dignified face became sharper.

   She is an extremely beautiful woman, nearly forty years old, and she is still graceful. Although she is no longer lively and bright, she has been carefully crafted by the years, and her mature and dignified charm is comparable to that of an ordinary girl.

  "Why did Wei Gong come?" The queen smiled implicitly, staring at Da Tsing Yi's face, her facial lines were tough, her high nose, thin lips, and deep eyes contained indescribable vicissitudes.

  The frosty white of the temple makes him more mature and charming.

   Wei Yuan first bowed his head: "I heard that the queen is sick?"

Queen    smiled and said: "I have healed."

   "Your Majesty said that the Queen has a poor appetite recently, so let the Weichen come and see."

The smile on Queen    faded, and she looked at him calmly: "He asked you to come? Weigong don’t know if my palace is sick."

  Wei Yuan hesitated for a while, shook his head and said: "Recently busy with official business, I wonder if the queen is sick."

  Queen's face is not turned aside, her tone is flat: "My palace is exhausted."

  "The queen drinks less tea, it's not good for the spleen and stomach..." Seeing the queen showing impatience, Wei Yuan bowed and said: "Weichen retires."

   "Wei Yuan!"

  Queen suddenly called him.

   Wei Yuan turned his back to him and didn't look back.

   "..." The queen opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but because of various concerns, she said nothing in the end.

   Thousands of words are hidden in her beautiful eyes, but Wei Yuan can't see it.

   Wei Yuan left the empress’s palace, and the breeze came, wandering in his blue clothes.

   He did not know that the queen was sick, because the Anzi who was inserted nearby was removed by Emperor Yuan Jing some time ago. The queen did not know about it.

   These things cannot be said in public, so the queen can only misunderstand them.

   In front of   , the tall princess Huaiqing is leading the maid and guards over.

   She wore a white palace dress, embroidered with bright plum blossoms, and covered with a large cloak that sheltered her from the cold. She was glamorous and luxurious, elegant and refined.

   is very different from her mother when she was young.

   "Wei Gong!" Princess Huaiqing gave a salute.

  "His Royal Highness." Wei Yuan returned the courtesy and explained casually: "Your Majesty heard that the queen has a poor appetite and is suffering from health problems. Let me visit on his behalf."

  Princess Huaiqing said, "My father is no longer in the harem. Every day, I only think about cultivating immortals and eternal life. He will pay attention to which lady in the palace is sick, but usually they send someone to visit." thing.

   "The maid serving in the palace said that the queen hasn't eaten much recently." Huai Qing said.

   "After a long illness, if you are on a hunger strike, your body will fall to the root of the disease." Wei Yuan frowned, but in front of Princess Huaiqing, he hid his worries well, and only expressed that courtier Some worries.

  Princess Huaiqing smiled, she didn't seem to be worried, her voice was cold and crisp, with a very high texture: "I just plan to summon Xu Qi'an. Since I meet Wei Gong here, Huaiqing will save the mansion guards. ."

   Wei Yuan stunned: "What does your Highness mean?"

Princess    Huaiqing said: "Xu Qi'an has a special secret recipe that can increase the umami taste of food a hundred times, and the taste will be unforgettable for a long time. The queen’s appetite is not good, just try this secret recipe."

  .....

   Xu Qi'an asked Song Tingfeng and Zhu Guangxiao to listen to the music at his own expense. The two colleagues listened to the music while completing the work of inheriting their lives.

   Xu Qi'an made up for them, especially Song Tingfeng, who donated fifty taels of silver to the Yangshengtang. He is a slumber who has no family, and his living expenses are second. If he has no money to teach Fangsi, he will feel sad.

  Leaving Goulan, Zhu Guangxiao and Song Tingfeng, who are hungry and have abalone, are extremely satisfied. They didn't go long before they were stopped by a gong on horseback and complained: "Where are you going to fish? No one can be found for a long time. "

   "What's the matter?" Xu Qi'an asked.

   "Wei Gong, please," said Tong Gong.

   was naturally Xu Qi'an. Song Tingfeng and Zhu Guangxiao knew that they had a hard time. They waved goodbye to their benevolent colleagues and continued their patrol.

   returned to the Yamen and entered the Haoqi Building. Xu Qi'an saw Wei Yuan sitting at the desk and reading.

The ****    put down the scroll and said: "Listen to Huaiqing, you have a secret recipe that can enhance the umami flavor of the dishes."

   Is Huaiqing such a gossip? Such trivial things are also talked about everywhere... Xu Qi'an was stunned for a moment, "The tricks of carving insects are not worth mentioning by Wei Gong."

   "The queen has a poor appetite recently and has a weak body. I want to try your formula." Wei Yuan said gently.

  The queen is Huaiqing’s biological mother. Huaiqing asked Wei Yuan to ask me for chicken essence.... Xu Qi'an nodded suddenly, and when there was no one in the tea room, he took out the jade mirror, buckled the back, and dropped a head-sized jar. He came out and was steadily caught by him.

   The fruits of Chu Caiwei and Song Qing's labor are here. He only left a small bottle of chicken essence for Chu Caiwei.

   Wei Yuan opened the jar, sniffed, and frowned. He smelled a little pungent umami.

   "This thing is called Essence of Chicken." Xu Qi'an said popularly.

   Chicken Essence is a mixed product, with monosodium glutamate and guanylic acid as the core ingredients, the two together have a complementary effect.

   Speaking of it, the two words Essence of Chicken can be described as broad and profound. It has three meanings, one of which is the seasoning you see in front of you.

   Another kind is the chicken becomes the essence, called the essence of the chicken. There is also a special product unique to men.

   Close the lid and return the jar to Xu Qi'an. Wei Yuan calls the staff: "Let the chef cook the bowl of noodles."

   Xu Qi will make an intentional meeting and follow the staff.

   After a quarter of an hour, Xu Qi'an returned with a bowl of egg and pork noodles and placed it on Wei Yuan's case.

   Wei Yuan nodded: "Take a bite and help me test the poison."

  "..." There is only one pair of chopsticks, and Xu Qi'an took a bite with the other end.

  Wait for a while to make sure that the small bronze gong was not poisoned by the face he held up. Wei Yuan then moved his chopsticks.

   Xu Qian said quietly: "Maybe the poison was put on the chopsticks."

   Wei Yuan was taken aback, and said angrily: "Get out."

   Xu Qi'an didn't get out, grinned, and got along with Dad Wei for so long. Wei Yuan is a person who doesn't really get angry, and his qi training is terrifying.

  Sure enough, Wei Yuan stopped responding and lowered his head to eat noodles.

   chewing on the noodles, he was a little surprised by the taste of the noodles, and he had the first experience that his taste buds were hit by chicken essence. When he took a sip of the soup, Wei Yuan's eyes suddenly lit up.

   "How is it?" Xu Qi'an asked expectantly.

   "How many chefs have worked hard to make this kind of taste." Wei Yuan nodded with satisfaction. The queen was used to eating the delicacies in the palace. In addition to her lack of appetite, her anorexia was also a reason for being tired of the dishes in the palace.

   Xu Qi'an could feel the approval in Dad Wei's eyes.

   Wei Yuan took out a porcelain bottle from the grid and handed it to Xu Qi'an, who took it, and poured a little from the jar into the porcelain bottle.

   and handed it back to Wei Yuan.

   Wei Yuan shook his head, did not answer, looked at the jar: "The bottle is for you, that's mine."

   Xu Qi'an's expression was suddenly dull.

  .....

   dusk.

  The maid served a stack of delicious dishes, and the rich fragrance of the dishes filled the room. But the queen looked sad and frowned unhappy:

   "My palace said, prepare a bowl of congee."

  The palace girl whispered: "Wei Gonggang sent a secret formula over and told us to make something good for the empress."

  Another palace lady said with hope: "Niangniang, you can try it."

   They have tried it, and the taste is unique and unforgettable. Having lived in the palace for so many years, I have tried various delicacies of mountains and seas for the masters.

   Today’s taste alone is an unprecedented taste experience, and people can’t help but feel that the deliciousness that was previously eaten is not so delicious.

   It was Wei Yuan’s arrangement. The queen sighed, she resisted and scooped up a bowl of soup, frowning to taste it.

  The strong umami flavour exploded between the taste buds, grunting...in the long neck, the throat rolled, and I swallowed it subconsciously.

   Then, the queen took one bite after another, drinking the soup without any resistance or disgust.

   "My palace is suddenly a little hungry, and I have a meal." The queen handed the bowl to the palace lady, staring at the table full of delicious food expectantly.

  .....

   The next day, just after 60 hours, the **** in the Queen’s Palace came to Dagengren’s office with a group of gold, silver and jade articles.

  Wei Yuan met with the **** in Haoqilou. This father-in-law, who was obviously old acquaintance with Wei Yuan, sat at the table casually, drinking tea made by Wei Yuan himself, and laughing:

  "Where did Wei Gong find the secret recipe, the empress empress ate it with joy last night."

   Wei Yuan stared at him, and asked nervously, "Isn’t you anorexia? How much did you eat."

   The father-in-law smiled and said: "Eat more than before, more than when I was in good health. When I woke up this morning, the Queen Mother asked me about lunch for an unprecedented time."

   Wei Yuan smiled heartily.

   Just after noon, Xu Qi'an was called to the palace by Princess Huaiqing. In the elegant room with bright windows, he saw the light mature princess whose **** could be put on the case.

   She is as cold, noble, and beautiful as ever. If you don’t look at her plump figure, you will feel that Her Royal Highness is a white lotus in the snow-capped mountains, spotlessly clean.

   "Today, the main palace used lunch at the empress~IndoMTL.com~Your formula seems to be improved?" Princess Huaiqing asked.

   "All the contributions of Brother Song and Miss Caiwei." Xu Qi'an said.

  Princess Huaiqing nodded, "My palace is a bit nostalgic for that smell, but the mother and queen are stingy not to give it. Do you still have it?"

  "It's gone." Xu Qi'an immediately shook his head: "I gave the full jar to Wei Gong and sent it to the empress."

  He actually has one, and there is a small bottle, but he can't give it to Huaiqing, he has to keep it for mounting.

   is not to say how high the status of Lin'an Princess is in his heart, but that the mounting is too noisy. The emperor's harem said that it is not big, and the novelty of chicken essence will be passed to Lin'an sooner or later. It doesn't matter, it was given by Wei Yuan after all.

   But Princess Huaiqing knows who the real "initiator" is. With Huaiqing's black belly... At that time, the mounting will be like a resentful woman knocking over a vinegar jar, throwing anger on Xu Qi'an's head.

   After all, in the heart of Princess Lin'an, Xu Qi'an has long since abandoned the secret to the Ming, and has become her Ma Zi.

  Princess Huaiqing frowned her eyebrows lightly, "But this palace heard that the chicken essence that Wei Yuan sent to the mother is half a can."

   "Huh?" Xu Qi'an was taken aback and looked at Huaiqing.

  Huaiqing also looked at him, and the two of them fell silent.

  PS: It was three shifts in the middle of the night last night, my energy was badly hurt, and it’s gone today.
