If the hot pot is to be delicious, you have to work hard on the soup base and the bowl.
Gu Yuanbai asked people to add the simplest spices. At this time, there was no chili, so he took star anise, scallions, shredded ginger, and Chinese prickly ash in an iron pot and copied it, and then used vinegar as the base, which mixed with a little fragrance. Spicy and sour and vinegar flavors, sprinkle some green shallots, the green points are deep water, and that's it.
Gu Yuanbai couldn't eat anything that irritates his stomach. The spiciness in the hot pot was only to enhance the taste, and the ingredients were tomato ingredients, so the spiciness in the dipping sauce was very little or not at all. The dipping sauce in front of Xue Yuan had a heavier taste, just as there was no wind at this time, the hot pot was placed in the yard, and it had a unique flavor when used.
Xue Yuan ate a few mouthfuls, and the sweat on his head followed, and the dishes on the table were about to be rounded up by him, and he said heartily: "Come on!"
This dipping sauce is really good, appetizing, and you can't stop after eating. Gu Yuanbai's self-control was not bad, he put down his chopsticks when he was full. As soon as he put down his chopsticks, Xue Yuan, who was dripping with sweat, looked up at him: "Don't eat?"
"I'm full." Gu Yuanbai took a sip of hot water.
Xue Yuan stretched out his hand, took away his dipping sauce, and threw the meat on the table into the pot. He really only likes meat and doesn't like vegetarian food. Gu Yuanbai deliberately said, "Why doesn't Xue Qing eat vegetables?"
Xue Yuan sighed, then turned his chopsticks and took out a vegetable leaf.
He is well accustomed to the taste of tomato pot, and prefers meat dishes dyed with tomato flavor compared to clear soup. After the two of them ate for a while, the smell of the boiling hot pot overflowed the whole yard, and the people waiting here secretly swallowed a few saliva from time to time, so that the greedy worms ran out. Gu Yuanbai looked at everyone's expressions, and turned his head to Tian Fusheng: "I'll rest in a while, and you can take them to have a good meal. The ingredients will be left over before, so you don't need to serve them in close proximity."
Tian Fusheng brought people joy and thanks: "Thank you for the reward."
"This iron pot on the saint is interesting," Xue Yuan took off his coat. "It's even more interesting to eat. It is estimated that it will become the same as that kang bed, and it will become a good thing sought after by hundreds of officials and clansmen."
Gu Yuanbai nodded and ordered some thick soup in the pot, "This soup is the only one."
"This minister is also blessed by the Holy One," Xue Yuan kept talking and kept talking, "Speaking of the iron pot, the Holy One, you must not trade iron wares when trading with the nomads at the border."
Of course this cannot be forgotten. Daheng merchants are not allowed to sell any iron objects to the nomads, even kitchen knives, only the nomads are allowed to replace the old kitchen knives with new ones.
Gu Yuanbai had already instructed Old General Xue on these details one by one when he was walking forward.
Xue Yuan glanced at him and smiled: "It seems that the minister said something in vain."
Gu Yuanbai smiled and said nothing.
After the meal, Xue Yuan accompanied Gu Yuanbai around Xiaoxiaoshi. Suddenly seeing a shivering spring flower growing in the corner of the railing by the lake, Xue Yuan's eyes moved, and he stepped forward to pick it.
The corners of Gu Yuanbai's eyes slid over Xue Yuan's robe's feet inadvertently, and the pattern on the robe slid from top to bottom with the movement of bending down. The sage retracted his eyes and said casually: "Xue Qing, are the wildflowers on the roadside spared?"
Xue Yuan didn't understand his jokes, so he reached out and handed over the bright yellow Yingchun, "Your Majesty, this color minister thinks it's pretty good. It's the only good scene in the late winter. Does your Majesty like it?"
"I think you like it very much. Since you think it's good, then Xue Qing will make some pale yellow clothes and wear them." Gu Yuanbai ignored his sultry tactics, "Wear it every day, even if you go to the battlefield, this is not a problem. The color also catches the eye.”
Xue Yuan's eyelids twitched, and he quietly threw the jasmine flowers into the lake, "I suddenly feel bad-looking again."
After Xiaoshi came back, Gu Yuanbai went back to his room and lay down reading a book. He was looking at a text, Xue Yuan was carving wood beside him, looked up at Gu Yuanbai from time to time, then lowered his head to get busy. Gu Yuanbai turned over a page of the book and asked casually, "Xue Jiuyao, have you read the books in your room?"
Xue Jiuyao said frankly, "I haven't read a word."
Gu Yuanbai thought that sure enough, he was not surprised, and after reading two more lines of words under the light, he said slowly: "There are so many books lying there without reading, it's really bluffing, San Yuyan always talks to me. Amazed by the books in your room, think you are a talented person."
Xue Yuan seemed to have heard a joke, "He thinks I am familiar with it?"
"Even if you're not familiar with it, it's a little bit familiar," Gu Yuanbai said, "I really thought you were an inner show, rich in poetry."
"It's not bad," Xue Yuan said as he blew the sawdust as a matter of course, "The books that the minister spent money to put here are naturally the things of the minister. They are all the things of the minister, and the things inside are also the things of the minister."
The sage was noncommittal and didn't say anything, but after a while, he said softly, "Rude."
Xue Yuan laughed, thinking that this is rough
After Gu Yuanbai finished flipping through a book, he was already sleepy. Xue Yuan looked at him and got up and said goodbye. Tian Fusheng stepped forward to serve the saint after he left. He had washed away the smell of hot pot. In order not to collide with the saint, he did not eat anything that would linger in his mouth. The old eunuch was very handy, and the two little eunuchs He was busy tidying up the bedding.
Gu Yuanbai was busy, and when he looked up from the book, he saw the look of the captain of the guard who was hesitant to speak.
He raised his eyebrows, "Zhang Xu, come here and talk to me."
A eunuch was standing at the head of the bed combing the saint's hair. Every time the round wood that was specially polished was brushed from the scalp, it would feel so comfortable that the brain also released its exhaustion. After the head guard walked to the bed, the sage had already closed his eyes, leaving only a black thread running through the little eunuch's hand like silk.
The captain of the guard was unable to speak again, and the saint said lazily: "If you have something in your heart, just say it."
"Your Majesty," finally, the head guard said, "Master Xue, he..." He choked out a sentence, "Did he really never read a book?"
Gu Yuanbai laughed, "If he said he didn't read it, that means he didn't read it. Otherwise, with Xue Jiuyao as a person, when I asked him, he would have taken the initiative to show it off to me."
The captain of the guard is a good man.
Originally, he just had some intuitive doubts, but he couldn't say it when he said it. What if everything was just a misunderstanding? If Master Xue is truly loyal to the Sage, wouldn't he push Master Xue into the fire pit by saying this
Even if it was Lord Chu, he couldn't tell the Sage clearly because he had no evidence. How could he treat Lord Xue like this because of a little suspicion
The captain of the bodyguard blamed himself, "I have nothing else to say. Your Majesty, I have no doubts in my heart."
Gu Yuanbai said: "Then step back."
The candles in the house went out one by one, and everyone retreated to the outside to watch the night.
*
Gu Yuanbai subconsciously reminded himself to be on guard against Xue Yuan's seduction, so when there was a slight movement in the room, his mind became awake, he maintained a long breath, and felt the actions around him.
Before long, someone approached the bed.
Gu Yuanbai held his breath, and after a while, his ears became hot, and someone whispered hot air in his ear, "Sacred?"
It's Xue Yuan.
It's so late, he's so sneaky, he'll never do anything aboveboard.
Gu Yuanbai didn't move, Xue Yuan called him in his ear for a while, the voice got lower and lower, and it got closer and closer, and finally even the lips touched the ear beads, and then with a swish, the ear beads were A numbness like an electric shock came up all over his body.
Gu Yuanbai couldn't help curling up with his five fingers, and he was afraid that he would scare the snake, so he kept himself safe.
Xue Yuan seemed to see that Gu Yuanbai was still asleep, but he didn't seem to see it. He laughed a few times in a low voice, and the laughter trembled so much that his ears filled with enthusiasm. Gu Yuanbai thought to himself, what is he laughing at
Are you kidding me
It's just that before the displeasure in his heart came out, Xue Yuan gently bit his earlobe, because his skin was delicate, so he didn't dare to use force. As if about to burst blood.
"Sir," Xue Yuan smiled calmly, and then asked teasingly, "How do you feel?"
Gu Yuanbai tried his best to keep his breath. Under the darkness, the long breath rose and fell. He was sure that Xue Yuan did not know that he was awake. It's just an earlobe, just the level of an earlobe, why does Gu Yuanbai have his legs tensed
With anticipation and anger, His Majesty the Emperor almost doubted himself.
But as soon as Xue Yuan's words came out, Gu Yuanbai couldn't help answering in his heart: "Comfortable, very comfortable.
keep going
Xue Yuan seemed to have heard Gu Yuanbai's innermost thoughts, he kissed Gu Yuanbai's ear beads again, his voice was so low that the butterfly flapped his wings, "When sitting on the swing, during dinner, the sage is always there again and again. to tease me."
Gu Yuanbai sneered, thinking to himself, Xue Yuan, who doesn't change his lust, is bold and bold, when are you talking about
He thought for a moment, then suddenly remembered, oh, yes. During dinner, he sweated a little while eating, and thought it was troublesome to have long hair, so he hooked his sideburns behind his ears, and then took a piece of beef from the pot.
At that time, Xue Yuan seemed to be choking. Could it be because he choked when he hooked his hair
Promise.
Gu Yuanbai wanted to laugh loudly, but before the laughter came out, he endured it. Because he remembered the hot spring when Xue Yuan ran back to Beijing for a long distance, and the taste of Xue Yuan's kiss on his face and neck, he relaxed and felt that if he pretended to be ignorant and was served and enjoyed for a while, it would be fine. good.
Is this prostitution
Not counting.
But even if it counts, he Gu Yuan prostitutes for nothing. In the middle of the night, Xue Yuan is secretly guilty of being a thief, who knows
Gu Yuanbai was not even half-conscious.
Just thinking about it, Xue Yuan leaned over and sucked a mark behind Gu Yuanbai's ear. His strength was neither heavy nor light, but it was very nerve-wracking, with an intractable itch. And his hands, Xue Yuan's hands, were placed beside the bed, except for the lip that kept kissing Gu Yuanbai's ear, he seemed to be a gentleman who had been educated in his bones, even if he came to someone else's house There was no touch by the bed.
Gu Yuanbai thought that he only dared to dangle beside his ears, so he no longer held back. He clutched the sheet with his five jointed fingers, pouring the numbness and itchiness all over his body onto the mattress.
The gasping sound in his ears gradually increased, Xue Yuan's hand suddenly stretched out to hold Gu Yuanbai's hand, and inserted forcefully through his five fingers. Gu Yuanbai thought he had seen something, but was suddenly startled, and his eyelids jumped abruptly.
Who would have thought that Xue Yuan was just breathing more and more quickly, but after an unknown amount of time, he suddenly clenched Gu Yuanbai's fingers and groaned. For a moment, Xue Yuan's breathing gradually calmed down, his tough fingers loosened, and the quilt was tucked in front of him, Gu Yuanbai thought, "Halftime?"
Only to hear another slight noise from the window, the movement in the room completely quieted down, and Xue Yuan left.
Gu Yuanbai's fingers still had the sour feeling of being forcibly inserted by the thicker fingers. The expression on his face changed, he opened his eyes suddenly, looked at the window and gritted his teeth: "Xue Jiuyao—"
What the hell, what kind of kung fu did you learn
In the middle of the night, climb the window and come in, and then you pretend to be innocent to Lao Tzu
