Chapter 462 Origin

The sound of horse hooves was not fast and slow, and Lu Yi's voice was also very calm: "The place of exile was Zhengsheng Pass west of Liangzhou... The princess may know that Zhengsheng Pass was more than a thousand miles away from the capital."

Liu Yan may not know anything else, but she really knows it in Liangzhou.

Because Tian Lin was unlucky at that time, he sent a lot of tolls to Liangzhou. Zhengsheng Pass was still in the northwest of Liangzhou. It was a barren land on the border. I don’t know what mistake Lu Yi’s grandfather made back then, and the punishment was so heavy. You must know that the exile was too far away and the people were old. Many people died halfway through the journey when they didn’t get to the place.

"At that time, the property in the family was confiscated and all the slaves were sold. Fortunately, some people pleaded with each other, and the family escaped and were not punished as official slaves. At that time, relatives from a clan accompanied their grandfather on the road. When they were halfway through, it was cold and the snow was heavy for days. I couldn't rush to the road. I stayed in a farmhouse for a few days. It was the Chinese New Year."

Lu Yi said it easily, and Liu Yan could imagine the tragic situation at that time.

The Chinese New Year is obviously a good time, but during the exile, I was trapped in snow and was poor and sick, and I was on the verge of life and death. This is really tragic.

"My grandfather taught the child arithmetic and taught him some words. The farmer was very grateful and rushed to celebrate the New Year and wanted to entertain him well. However, the farmer was very poor and couldn't come up with anything good. Even during the New Year, there was no decent meal at home. That is, the radish in the cellar, a piece of bacon, and some rough noodles..."

Ah, when it comes to carrots.

"My grandfather actually used to make food because he loved it and thought about it. However, when he was an official, he didn't have to worry about food and clothing. He was called elegant, but at that time he was really trying to fill his stomach. When he was hungry and cold, he couldn't become elegant."

"Then, the old man thought about radish soup at that time?"

Although Liu Yan could eat the ingredients, he didn't expect it to be so simple.

"Yes, the method is actually not difficult. Cut a little fat from the bacon, make oil in the pot, cut the radish into the dough, wrap the noodles outside, fry it in the oil, add water to make some chopped bacon, add some chopped bacon, Oh, there was an egg at that time, and beat egg flowers, and make a big pot of soup. As a result... it was very delicious. Grandfather said that he had searched for food for so many years and studied food, but had never drunk such a good soup. After drinking it, he felt warm. The two people who escorted him at that time also drank the soup, and they praised him for his good cooking. Later, when the snow melted and went on the road, he was a little more kind to him."

"Ah... it turns out that this soup has such a origin."

Liu Yan understood a little.

If you really say it tastes good, this soup is definitely not the best. Just like the good soups that the Imperial Kitchen has been thinking about, the ingredients are as rich and expensive, and the taste is much better than this soup. However, when people are in trouble and at the end of their journey, they meet a kind family. If they can drink such a pot of soup during the Chinese New Year, it is really a fortune.

"Later, the world became even more chaotic, and my grandfather returned to his hometown. When I was young, he cooked the soup for me and told me what happened at that time..."

When Liu Yan heard his tone gradually became lighter, he turned his head and glanced.

Lu Yi's expression was a little sad.

Did he think of his grandfather who had passed away? Perhaps his mother.

His mother has been alive for many years.

"Thank you, the soup is delicious. Yesterday my mother and I both drank two bowls."

Lu Yi turned his head and smiled at her: "Is that so? That's good. You have to like it. I'll make it for you to drink in the future."

I don’t know if it was because the sky was particularly blue today and the sun was particularly warm and bright. Lu Yi’s smile made Liu Yan feel a little dazzling, her chest was pounding, and the loud sound made her feel a little panicked.

Liu Yan leaned back and let out a long sigh.

Maybe it's too hot today.

"Princess..." Lu Yi called out softly outside.

"Well," Liu Yan responded: "What's the matter?"

"I heard that the princess embroidered a very distinctive crabapple purse a few days ago, and it was circulated in and out of the palace. I was also very curious. I wonder if the princess could lend me the purse to me to take a look?"

Purse?

Liu Yan suddenly felt calm and his face stopped warm. He sat up straight and threw the curtain: "What are you looking at? What's the good thing about it! Don't believe those rumors and rumors."

Lu Yi's voice sounded a little strange, and she smiled: "Yes, yes, I will definitely not listen to it or believe it."

Who is it? It’s really a pot that doesn’t open and pick up.

What’s hard to mention, why do you have to mention that crabapple purse!

Speaking of purses, the second purses made by Liu Yan finally passed.

But the problem is that Mr. Cheng was asked to rework and do it again. When she got well, Mr. Zhang's illness was cured. The second purse was handed over to her. She praised her and praised her again and again, which made Liu Yan feel very embarrassed.

Mr. Zhang not only praised himself, but also reported the matter back to Empress Cao, and then...

Then the second purse was taken by the father.

Although the second one is better than the first one, it is not much stronger. It looks less damn, but if the father wants to wear it out to meet people, then others will definitely make jokes when they see it.

Liu Yan was very persuading, and the emperor agreed to wear it when he didn't wear it outside.

Someone will see it.

In short, Liu Yan felt that the word "purse" was in conflict with her, and Haitang. She didn't want to hear topics related to "Begonia" and "purse" this year.

"By the way, there is something..." Lu Yi said: "It's a fun thing. I don't know if the princess wants to hear it."

Interesting thing?

If Lu Yi can say it is an interesting thing, then it must be interesting.

Liu Yan really wanted to say "I don't want to listen" with a tough word, or just let him go without saying a word, who told me that this person just revealed her shortcomings.

But the interesting thing... I missed this time and didn't know when I would hear it next time. What a pity.

She couldn't help but snorted before asking, "What interesting things? Let's talk about them."

"Yes, a while ago, a friend of mine was patrolling the streets of Nancheng and saw a strange thing about selling himself to bury his mother."

"Well……"

It was obviously a tragic incident to sell oneself to bury your mother, but he said it was an interesting and strange incident.

Liu Yan was very curious: "Who is the seller?"

"It's a young girl who claims to be seventeen years old and is beautiful. She kneels on the street, and is surrounded by a corpse wrapped in a straw mat."

"So, anyone buys it?"

Liu Yan seemed to have heard of such things before, but some were true, while others were false.
