She sat close to the charcoal pot, frowning slightly, and a hint of helplessness appeared on her cute face.
It was late at night and she was a little hungry.
Before dark, the soldiers in the army brought dinner. However, the taste of the food was too ordinary. Cao Jie simply ate some but stopped eating. So now he was hungry and felt very uncomfortable.
She was the one who had just been given to Lu Xuan. She didn't know anyone here, so there was no way she could sneak out to find food.
Her hobby is gourmet food and she likes to cook food.
When she was in Prince Qin's Mansion in Luoyang, Cao Jie liked to think about eating and knew many tricks. The pastries she made or the meat she cooked were all very delicious.
Cao Jie sighed, took out a small bag from his sleeve, took out a few preserved fruits and ate them. After eating the sweet preserved fruits, his stomach felt better, and there was a touch of joy on his face.
Sure enough, eating can make people happy.
Cao Jie glanced outside the tent. It had already become dark, and the cold wind was whistling. Fortunately, the charcoal fire in the tent dispelled the cold and prevented him from getting cold.
"Oh, I'm still hungry."
Cao Jie murmured to himself.
She was so hungry that she finally couldn't help but stand up and go to the camp entrance, planning to ask the soldiers standing guard outside the camp for some ingredients and get some food for herself. As soon as she walked to the camp entrance, the tent curtain suddenly lifted, and Lu
Xuan strode in.
boom!!
Cao Jie and Lu Xuan bumped into each other.
Cao Jie bumped into Lu Xuan's chest. Just as she was about to speak, she looked up and saw Lu Xuan's appearance. Her eyes lit up and she couldn't help but take a second look and said softly: "Are you Lu Xuan?"
Lu Xuan looked at the cute baby-faced Cao Jie with a soft and waxy voice, smiled and nodded: "I am Lu Xuan."
Cao Jie's heart beat faster inexplicably.
On the way here, she heard Cai Yan say that Lu Xuanfeng was handsome. Now looking at Lu Xuan in front of her, he was tall, handsome, tall and strong. The key was that there was light in his eyes, which made her inexplicably like him.
Cao Jie quickly put down his hands, made a ladylike gesture, leaned forward and said, "I have met the king."
Lu Xuan said: "No need to be polite."
He looked at Cao Jie who was walking to the entrance of the camp and asked, "Why are you at the entrance of the camp? Is there anything wrong?"
"Nothing, nothing."
Cao Jie waved his hands one after another.
In front of Lu Xuan, she was embarrassed that she hadn't eaten enough. She said she was hungry, which would be too disappointing.
Goo! Goo!!
At this moment, Cao Jie's stomach growled.
She was holding her stomach, with an embarrassed look on her face. Her big black eyes were a little erratic, and she didn't dare to look into Lu Xuan's eyes.
Lu Xuan comforted: "It's okay if you're hungry, just eat. I'll arrange for someone to prepare food for you. Only when you're full will you have strength."
"no, do not want."
Cao Jie waved his hand quickly.
Lu Xuan asked again: "Are you serious about not wanting it?"
Cao Jie hesitated for a moment, but still chose to eat from his stomach, and said humbly: "Then just eat a little, but I can do it myself. Are you hungry? I'll prepare it and eat together. Don't worry, I'm a good cook."
Lu Xuan asked: "Is it possible?"
"I guarantee it will work."
Cao Jie's eyes shone, he looked determined and very confident.
Lu Xuan noticed Cao Jie's look and applauded in his heart. Cai Yan was a literary young woman with a beautiful intellectual mind. Cao Jie in front of him was a snack connoisseur and a beautiful cook, and not only could she eat, but she could also make her own food.
What a blessing.
Lu Xuan said directly: "What kind of food do you want to cook? I will prepare it for you."
Cao Jie scratched his head and said quickly: "There are no fresh ingredients at night, so just go to the kitchen and have a look and make whatever is available. I will make whatever delicious food the king wants to eat in the future."
"I can cook roasted lamb, stewed lamb, braised beef, and a lot of pastries. I make them all myself and never give them to anyone else. I guarantee you will be satisfied."
"Let's go."
Lu Xuan also looked forward to it.
He and Cao Jie left the camp, but a cold wind blew and snow fell, making Cao Jie shiver.
Lu Xuan stepped forward and hugged Cao Jie to his side. Lu Xuan wrapped Cao Jie with a large cloak to protect him from the cold wind. Cao Jie was petite and was completely protected by Lu Xuan.
Cao Jie felt Lu Xuan's warm and strong body, felt Lu Xuan's protection, and a bright smile appeared on his cute face.
Lu Xuan gave her a different feeling,
Not only is Feng Shen handsome.
The key is that the attitude towards her is different.
She had seen her father, Cao Cao, who had an attitude towards her mother that he would come and go as soon as she was called. She had also seen her elder brother Cao Ang, who was the same with his wife. She had never been so close to him.
That means men are superior to women.
Lu Xuan didn't scold her because she was hungry and wanted to eat, nor did he let her walk alone in the cold wind. Instead, he protected her.
Cao Jie was very happy inside.
This feels good.
The two of them walked towards the kitchen, and after a while they arrived at the tent dedicated to cooking meals.
The remaining meals in the camp are specially served. The food in Lu Xuan's army has always been good. There is enough meat every day, and broth is prepared every day to ensure the nutrition of the soldiers.
This is because Lu Xuan has no problems with logistics, and the Wu Kingdom's rear is stable and can continuously produce food. Therefore, Lu Xuan's soldiers on the front line are not short of rice and meat, and they can eat and drink enough.
This is something that Cao Cao and Yuan Shao's soldiers do not have.
It is impossible for the armies of Cao Cao and Yuan Shao to have meat to eat every day. Cao Cao is in a difficult situation, and food and grass are not easy to come by. Yuan Shao has enough food and grass, but he does not treat his soldiers so well. Even if many soldiers eat rice, it is old rice, and even mixed with rice.
With sand.
Lu Xuan's army was different. Whether it was rice, white flour steamed buns, meat buns, etc. in the army, they were all guaranteed to be clean.
This is a logistical difference in the military.
Cao Jie walked up and took a look at the mutton soup left in the vat. There was no meat, it was just soup. She went up and took a sniff, looking disgusted, shaking her head and saying: "The smell of mutton soup is too great.
It was not handled well and the level is too low."
She looked at them one by one, and all that was left were scraps.
There is some white rice left.
Cao Jie turned around and said, "There are also eggs and some rice. I use the eggs to cook. This is an exclusive recipe I made at home. I guarantee you will like it."
Lu Xuan glanced at Cao Jie.
Egg fried rice?
Although it is very common, but in a hurry, this is the best arrangement.
Lu Xuan nodded and said, "I will wait and see."
Cao Jie took three eggs and broke them into pieces, then stirred them evenly with chopsticks. She also took out a little chicken fat from the bowl. This is chicken fat boiled from the fat of the chicken after killing it. It tastes very fragrant and very special.
few.
This kind of chicken fat is occasionally used when cooking for Lu Xuan.
Lu Xuan called the soldiers to light the fire and let Cao Jie cook. Although there is no wok of later generations, the three-legged cauldron of this era can also be used. The three-legged cauldron is similar to the cauldron of later generations, but it is supported by three legs.
Lu Xuan watched Cao Jie busy. He first greased the pan with chicken oil, then poured in the egg liquid and quickly stirred it into shape. The golden eggs exuded an attractive fragrance. Finally, Cao Jie poured in the rice and quickly turned it over.
When the rice and eggs are mixed together, the fragrance fills the air, and Cao Jie doll's face shows a look of joy.
"Okay, let's start the pot."
Cao Jie took two bowls to fill with rice, gave one bowl to Lu Xuan, and took another bowl for herself. She looked at Lu Xuan with expectation and said: "You try it, I guarantee it will be delicious. This method is my own
I came up with it.”
Lu Xuan nodded and asked: "You really don't need other ingredients or more detailed methods for this egg fried rice?"
"Right, that is it."
Cao Jie nodded solemnly and said seriously: "I made this exclusively. Your Majesty, you are the first person to eat my cooking."
After Lu Xuan heard about it, he determined that Cao Jie came up with the egg fried rice recipe by accident. In fact, egg fried rice requires rice that has been left overnight. Finally, add some chopped green onions to the pot and mix them together to stir-fry.
Lu Xuan is not particular about it. Cao Jie likes to study, so he can let Cao Jie take charge of the follow-up. Lu Xuan also knows a lot about food, so he can let Cao Jie take over. Thinking of this, Lu Xuan became more and more happy.
He took a bite of the egg fried rice and it tasted good.
Cao Jie also concentrated on eating, taking small bites with a look of joy and satisfaction on his face.
Lu Xuan looked at Cao Jie's appearance, shook his head and chuckled.
This girl is so satisfied.
After Lu Xuan finished eating, he waited quietly. After a while, Cao Jie finished eating, breathed a long sigh of relief, looked at Lu Xuan and said, "Your Majesty, thank you."
"You are my king's woman, what are you grateful for?"
Lu Xuan shook his head and said: "Taking care of you is what I should do, there is no need to say this."
Cao Jie hummed and nodded solemnly.
After the meal, the two of them left the camp and walked back. Although the weather was cold, Lu Xuan was not affected at all by living the Cao Festival.
Lu Xuan and Cao Jie slowed down and walked around the camp for a while before returning to the tent. Lu Xuan and Cao Jie were talking, talking about Cao Jie's hobbies and some interesting things.
From time to time, bursts of laughter could be heard in the camp.
Cao Jie felt that he was very happy talking to Lu Xuan. During the conversation between the two, the relationship between them quickly became closer, the distance between the two became closer, and the atmosphere gradually became more charming. When talking about Cao Xian and Cao Xuan's daughter, it suddenly turned into
When it comes to giving birth to a baby, the atmosphere becomes even more ambiguous.
The two figures were already close to each other.
Cao Xian's eyes were watery, his head was slightly lowered, and his fair and jade-like cheeks seemed to be stained with a layer of red clouds.
