Chapter 809 The Law of True Fragrance

Emperor Chongzhen hated everything around him. He didn't understand why everything became like this after leaving the capital.

The food came soon, and after seeing the food on the table, Emperor Chongzhen was completely stunned.

This is also a food for people to eat?

The rough rice, some side dishes that are neither salty nor light. The greasy and black table is not clean. Because he is not the emperor, he should not be too eye-catching when traveling outside, so he can only sit with everyone.

Even so, the accompanying Jinyiwei gave them a hundred courages, and they did not dare to be on the same table as the emperor. Everyone had to deliberately dodge a distance from Emperor Chongzhen. Even the Jinyiwei commander Luo Yangxing dared to sit far away on the table.

Even though Zhu Cilang frequently winked Luo Yangxing and asked him to come over to the same table as Chongzhen. However, Luo Yangxing turned a blind eye and turned a blind eye to it.

Helplessly, Zhu Cilang had to go over and sit on the same table as Emperor Chongzhen. Wang Chengen, dressed as a servant, wanted to slip away, but was caught by Zhu Cilang: "Go to the old king and sit down."

Wang Chengen was stunned. He was a servant. As a servant, he could not eat mats on the same table as his master. This is a taboo.

But when you go out, the more you are too isolated Chongzhen, the more suspicious it is. Except for the people of the official family, no one will have such strict rules. Everyone is away from home. As the saying goes, wealth does not reveal wealth, and it is generally better to be cautious outside.

Wang Chengen had no choice but to sit down reluctantly. However, he just took a step on the long bench, quite restrained.

This made it even more like there was no silver here. In the eyes of everyone, Chongzhen's identity seemed even more extraordinary. Otherwise, why would everyone be afraid of him?

Even the store owner cast a strange look. Zhu Cilang had no choice but to kick Wang Chengen's long bench. Only then did Wang Chengen move his butt with courage and approach Chongzhen.

The food was brought up one after another, and the store owner smiled and said, "Customer, can you please drink some water?"

Zhu Cilang sat at the table casually, with one foot on the stool, like a bandit mountain king who had just done a lot of money: "Well, bring the best water and wine in your store."

The shop is not big, and there are only a few similar mud jars on the counter. In other words, this shop seems to be the only one kind of water wine. In such a place, it is good to drink wine, so don’t expect any nectar and jade liquid.

The shop owner's throat moved, then nodded and bowed: "Customer wait, the villain will go and get it now."

The store is so small that only the store owner is busy with work. His father is in the kitchen and his wife is helping with the fire in the kitchen. There is only the store owner in the front hall. Because the store is small and there are few customers, they can't afford to hire a waiter at all.

Although it is not much money to hire a waiter in this era. Even if you only need to take care of a meal, you will have a lot of people. But for such a small shop, you still can't afford to hire.

Emperor Chongzhen looked at the simple rice on the table. It was really simple rice. He had no appetite. Until the store brought the wine, Zhu Cixuan stood up and picked up the wine pot, poured a glass of wine for Emperor Chongzhen: "Dad, this person who is out of the house is not as good as the family, so we will eat something to go on the road."

Chongzhen glanced at his son angrily, "It's so awkward to go on the road?" Why do you hear this? It's so awkward.

He had no interest in the food, so Emperor Chongzhen had to reluctantly pick up the wine glass and taste it.

With a "puff!", Emperor Chongzhen sprayed out a sip of wine. He looked at the wine in the cup in shock and turned to look at the shop owner with a surprised look.

There is such a hard drink in the world. Can this be called alcohol? It is sour and astringent, just like slurry.

When bandits were in chaos and when natural disasters occurred during the Little Ice River period, Emperor Chongzhen also advocated frugality in the palace. He even had a simple meal with Empress Zhou.

However, what was the simple rice that Emperor Chongzhen ate in the palace? The one he drank was the "long rice" from Zhangqiu, which was a kind of high-quality tribute rice.

As one of the five grains, millet has a splendid history of thousands of years. Zhangqiu Longshan millet was planted during the Spring and Autumn Period. Zhangqiu Longshan millet is known as the four famous rice, along with the "gold rice" in Jinxiang County, Shandong Province, "Qinzhou Huang" in Shanxi Province, and "peach rice" in Hebei Province.

Longshan millet grows in a special environment, growing under dry fields with yellow loam soil, deep soil layers and fertile texture. The soil in Pingling City, Longshan is very suitable for its growth. It has a strong fragrance, a sticky and fragrant taste, a golden color, and large and round seeds.

The side dishes are also carefully selected. The light dishes made by the imperial kitchen are accompanied by exquisite tribute rice. In this way, they are called plain rice by Chongzhen.

Now, what you eat in this dilapidated shop is not called simple food, but pig food. No, these foods on the table are eaten by pigs, but pigs don’t eat them.

The food is not delicious, so you can finally drink this wine. There are so many imperial wines in the palace, which one is not a good wine.

But what is this? Can something sour and astringent? It’s almost the same as horse urine.

The store owner was shocked. Who was the person who came here? Why did he vomit such a good wine? Seeing that the situation was not good, Zhu Cixuan hurriedly stepped forward and patted Chongzhen on the back: "Dad, don't drink it if you are not in good health. It's because the child forgot. You should eat more food and don't drink the wine again."

Chongzhen was furious and slapped the table suddenly: "I, I, I just starved to death, I will die of death from outside, jump from here and I won't eat anything you have!"

The law of true fragrance? Zhu Cilang was also stunned.

Dad is used to this. If this is placed during a war, this table would be a delicious food. If you like it or not, Emperor Chongzhen was furious. The Jinyiwei who was raving around was so scared that he stopped chopsticks.

The Jinyiwei also disguised himself as thugs like servants guarding the hospital. After all, the world is not peaceful, so it is reasonable for this master to hire these people.

Naughty children cannot be substituted, and the same is true for his father, Emperor Chongzhen. Seeing Chongzhen furious, Zhu Cilang was also angry: "If you like to eat, if you don't eat, let's eat it all."

Still no one dared to move his chopsticks, the store owner trembled: "Customer, is it, isn't the food in the villain's store not to suit his appetite?"

"No matter what your business is, my father is sick." Zhu Cilang said angrily.

This made Chongzhen angry and was about to explode. Perhaps Chongzhen felt that he was a little too much, and finally restrained himself: "I didn't hear it, you guys eat it quickly!"

When Chongzhen spoke like this, the Jinyiwei dared to make a fuss. Even Zhu Cilang picked up the coarse rice bowl, like a pig's food. Even if the coarse rice in the bowl had sand, Zhu Cilang would spit it out casually and then continue to cook the rice.
