Chapter 483 The Dragon gave birth to nine sons (Third update, please vote for me)
In the Queen Mother's cabin.
The dining table was also removed, and a light chrysanthemum tea was served, which just soothed the greasiness just now.
The Queen Mother said to Shu Shu: "This braised pork is delicious, are there any other foods?"
Shu Shu laughed after hearing this and said: "It is related, but it has nothing to do with Jiangnan. It has something to do with Dongpo Braised Pork!"
Everyone looked over curiously.
Shu Shu recounted Su Dongpo's experience of being demoted from Kaifeng Mansion to Qiongzhou, and his younger brother who finally came to power in order to save his elder brother.
The Queen Mother only speaks Chinese, does not know Chinese characters, and the names of people are unfamiliar to her.
The fifth elder brother was still nearby and added to the Queen Mother: "Su Dongpo is famous. He is a great talent. He is more famous than Nalan Xingde of this dynasty. My grandson has read his poems when he went to the study, but he didn't write them in the book.
The part where his younger brother saves his older brother..."
The Queen Mother smiled and said: "If it weren't for this younger brother, it would be over in one episode, and I wouldn't be demoted so many times!"
When ordinary officials are demoted, they are sad and frustrated, but this one wrote a famous article and left a legend of food along the way.
"I am from Sichuan. I have been thinking about food when I was in my hometown. There is a Dongpo jelly dish, which is just right when the weather is hot. There is also a Dongpo cold pot fish recipe, which uses river fish, etc.
When I arrive in Huai'an Prefecture in a few days, I can try river fish and lake fish. They are spicy and not bland..."
Shu Shu said, feeling greedy.
After hearing this, the Queen Mother also felt yearning and said: "Then let's all give it a try..."
The grandparents and grandchildren were talking and laughing when there was movement at the door.
Aunt Bai came in.
Everyone stopped talking.
Aunt Bai was still in the room before. After serving tea, she retired to eat. She had been out for less than half a quarter of an hour.
Aunt Bai came to the Queen Mother and whispered: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty has sent Liang Jiugong to ask about what happened in the afternoon. Can I go over and report to you?"
The Queen Mother frowned slightly and said: "Go ahead, don't hide it, let's see why the emperor wants to ask this."
Aunt Bai responded and went down.
The fifth elder brother was confused when he heard this and said, "Grandma Huang, what happened this afternoon?"
The Queen Mother said kindly: "This is about Concubine Rong and Sanfujin, and it has nothing to do with us."
After hearing this, the fifth elder brother showed hesitation on his face.
"What's wrong?"
The Queen Mother saw that he looked wrong and asked.
The fifth elder brother remembered the words of the seventh elder brother. When the Holy Master first set off on his journey, Bafujin made a fuss. He beat the eighth elder brother, but it seemed that he was stabbed in front of the emperor by the third elder brother.
He didn't hide it, and said it again, "If I had known that I was sweating, my grandson would have told me right away."
He has a gentle temperament, and even if he doesn't like Ba Fujin, he still feels a little pitiful when he thinks that he was sent away under the order of the emperor's father.
The queen mother listened, the corners of her mouth drooped a little.
I already knew that the third elder brother was a mouthful, but I didn't expect that this would happen.
This is because he has a grudge and wants to take the opportunity to cheat the fifth elder brother.
It's really bad enough.
Shu Shu and Wu Fujin also looked at each other. They didn't expect that the culprit who sent Ba Fujin away in the first place was actually the third elder brother.
People who have nothing to do with things.
The Queen Mother once again brought up the old conversation and said to the fifth elder brother: "Stay away from the third elder brother. If you have anything to do, go to the eldest elder brother and the seventh elder brother."
The fifth elder brother nodded and said: "Well, my grandson should stay away from him..."
Otherwise, you might get tricked once in a while, just like Eighth Prince this time.
*
At the pier, walk in the dining room.
Kangxi has given his fourteenth elder brother a new assignment, which is to copy "Compassion to the Peasants" a hundred times.
"I have taught you since childhood that you should cherish food and not waste it, but you actually know that you are wrong and making mistakes!"
The fourteenth elder brother knew that he had violated a taboo. He lowered his head and said, "Yes, my son understands."
Kangxi looked at the kitchen steward who had called him first.
The blood on the steward's forehead had stopped, but his front was bloody and he still looked a little embarrassed.
Kangxi, however, had no sympathy and said with a cold face: "What's going on with the forty taels of silver?"
Even if the masters order more dishes, they will still use ingredients from the imperial kitchen.
You actually have the guts to make a profit out of this?
The current situation is different from that in the palace.
The mistresses from all over the palace occasionally went to the imperial kitchen to ask for something beyond the rules, and they had to pay for it, just to keep accounts.
The input and output of each batch of ingredients in the imperial dining room are recorded.
How much money is spent every year should be detailed down to the number of cents and cents.
For the small kitchens everywhere, ordering ingredients from the imperial kitchen is equivalent to a convenience, and it doesn't matter who takes advantage.
But it's different now.
The steward hurriedly said: "For your information, Your Majesty, I follow the old rules of the imperial kitchen and keep the account books here..."
After getting permission, the steward went to get the account books.
Kangxi took it and read it, and remembered it very clearly.
In a certain month of a certain year, how much reward will be received from a certain master?
How this money will be distributed is also noted below.
Just like this one this afternoon.
Jiufu Jin will reward you with ten taels of silver.
According to Jiu Fujin's instructions, we tried to make two new dishes, how many portions of each, how much meat was used, and how much silver was used.
The expense of food ingredients is only a small part of the account.
The big head is divided among the chef, cooks, cooks, stewards, etc. in proportion.
However, this is a reward in the first place, so it makes sense that labor accounts for the majority because it requires extra effort here.
Kangxi's expression softened slightly and he said, "Go to the pharmacy!"
The steward stepped back respectfully.
This matter was done in accordance with the rules from the inside out, and there was nothing wrong with it. Today's stick was an unwarranted disaster.
Thinking of this, Kangxi glared at his fourteenth brother again and said: "He beats you without any distinction. Who did you learn from to be so violent?"
The fourteenth elder brother expressed his grievance and said: "My son was not angry at the time, it was not intentional."
Kangxi said with a cold face: "No matter what the reason is, it is wrong to hit someone, plus read the Diamond Sutra a hundred times to calm your mind!"
The fourteenth elder brother's face showed pleading and said: "Khan Ama, is it too much? There are thousands of words in the Diamond Sutra. If you really want to copy it a hundred times, then my son doesn't have to do anything else!
"
Seeing that he still had the energy to deal with this, Kangxi felt unhappy and said: "I'll fine you another year..."
This is about the prince's monthly salary of the fourteenth prince, which is fifty taels of silver per month, which equals six hundred taels in a year.
At this point, he looked at Ma Qi and said, "Half of it will be given as compensation to the steward just now, and the other half will be put into the account of the Ministry of Internal Affairs as compensation for the damage to the equipment."
Ma Qi bowed and said: "Your Majesty is merciful!"
The emperor punished the fourteenth elder brother and rewarded the steward just now, so the matter was over.
No one will make things difficult for that person.
Otherwise, there is no shortage of people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs who want to downplay others and flatter others. In order to please the Fourteenth Brother, it would not be unusual to take the opportunity to make trouble for the manager.
And Brother Fourteen set a bad precedent by smashing the dining room.
If the punishment were not harsher, and the master behind him would come and smash him at his request, he wouldn't be able to bear it.
Brother Fourteen was nearby, his eye circles red again.
However, he saw that the emperor's father was in a bad mood and did not dare to say anything for fear of being offended, so he had to accept the punishment honestly.
At this moment, Liang Jiugong came back.
"Your Majesty, regarding this afternoon's matter, Aunt Bai would like to ask for an interview!"
Kangxi was startled when he heard this.
Liang Jiugong is the imperial eunuch, and his confidant is hard to tell in front of Liang Jiugong...
He didn't wave his hand to tell everyone to go out, but got up and went out by himself.
Everyone started to come out, and then he turned around and said, "You guys wait in the tent first."
Outside the tent, Aunt Bai was already waiting.
Seeing Kangxi come out, Aunt Bai felt blessed. She stepped forward, lowered her voice, and recounted what had happened in the afternoon.
"The empress' intention, which affects Jiu Fujin's dignity, should only be treated as an ordinary quarrel between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. A big matter is reduced to a trivial matter..."
"Jiu Fujin, Gege and the others don't know the inside story either."
"Jiu Fujin thought it was because he had given food to the Thirteenth Master and the Fourteenth Master before, which made his concubine unhappy, so he asked people not to add food there..."
Kangxi's face was as dark as water and he said: "Okay, I understand. Tell the Queen Mother and I will handle the matter properly."
Aunt Bai blessed her again and turned to leave.
"There is no better son than a father." Even the Queen Mother could think of the third elder brother. How could he not think of him?
Kangxi thought of a word in his mind, "The dragon gives birth to nine sons."
I have more than nine dragons, and they are really all kinds of people.
It really impressed him.
If the third elder brother was careful and used force against his brother, although Kangxi was not happy, he would not interfere too much.
But the dignified prince, like a shrew in the market, talks about his wife and talks about the innocence of his brother and his wife, which is disgusting.
And Concubine Rong, I can never tell the difference between the importance and the importance.
Kangxi was vaguely a little irritable.
If the third elder brother was in front of him, he would kick him a few times.
Kangxi was the emperor, so he had to do it when he thought of it, so he didn't have to hold back. He immediately ordered Liang Jiugong, "Send Brother Three to come over!"
Having said this, he looked back at the tent.
At the entrance of the account, Brother Fourteen poked his head in.
In what happened in the afternoon, Concubine Rong was at fault for three points, Brother Three was at fault for three points, and Fujin was at fault for one point. The remaining three points were Brother Fourteen.
"Get out of here!"
Kangxi scolded angrily.
Brother Fourteen was stunned and looked at Aunt Bai in the distance.
Did Aunt Bai file a complaint?
Isn't this what happened in the afternoon?
The fourteenth elder brother felt anxious and walked out of the tent.
Kangxi said with a dark face: "Do you order ten dishes for each meal?"
The fourteenth brother didn't expect to say this, his eyes were a little confused, and he hurriedly said: "Khan Ama, four of them are special dishes. My son only ordered six at most. He and the thirteenth brother were together, and we only shared three dishes.
!”
Calculating it that way, each person will have one more dish per person, so that shouldn’t be a mistake, right?
Kangxi snorted coldly: "I'm not doing arithmetic with you! Why can't you eat a good meal when others eat it? How come I didn't see you so picky in Zhaoxiang's dining room before?"
Brother Fourteen couldn't tell.
Can he say that he did it on purpose?
As they moved over, Concubine Rong gave them a few instructions, telling them to go to bed early and get up early, and not to play around on the boat. She was afraid of the noise.
It's simply baffling.
It made him and Thirteenth Brother look like two pitiful little people relying on others.
The fourteenth brother was coaxed by others when he was a child. He had never experienced this, so he resorted to different ways of tormenting him.
How could he hide his guilty look from others?
Kangxi felt his head hurt even more.
He recalled that during his northern tour last year, he met Horqin's old relatives and talked about the prince under his knees. He was extremely proud at that time.
I feel that my older sons have become talented.
Each has its advantages.
Now it is hard to say whether it has more advantages or more disadvantages.
"Behave yourself and don't do this again, otherwise I'll ask someone to take you back to Beijing!"
Kangxi's tone became more severe.
The fourteenth elder brother drooped his head and nodded vigorously: "I don't dare anymore!"
The third elder brother came with Liang Jiugong to meet the driver, and saw exactly this situation from a distance.
He was extremely curious.
"Eunuch Liang, what trouble did Brother Fourteen get into?"
Liang Jiugong glanced at him but did not answer, saying: "The third master will know it when he comes here..."
