I am a corrupt official, but they say I am a loyal minister

But there was nothing that could help Lin Beifan, and he felt very ashamed and sorry!

They knew that Lin Beifan was greedy for money, and only loved gold, silver and jewelry.So this time I saw a perfect opportunity, and immediately took advantage of the chaos outside to dig out the gold, silver and jewelry from Tianmen and gave them to Lin Beifan.

Looking at it now, it was indeed sent right!

The other party was very happy and accepted it decisively.

Guo Butou is very happy, such a relationship makes the friendship deep!

If you encounter problems in the future, you can openly go to Mr. Lin and ask him for advice.

With Lin Beifan's help, is it still far away for the next promotion?

Haha!

It's a win-win situation and everyone is very happy!

"Master Lin, the banquet at the Six Doors is about to start, can you do me a favor?" Catcher Guo sent out an invitation.

"It's a great honor!" Lin Beifan waved his hand: "Today is a very happy day, so I just brought a few jugs of fine wine from my wine cellar, and everyone has a good drink tonight!"

"Haha, I will take care of those little bastards, thank you Lord Lin!"

Everyone had a great time drinking that night.

Chapter 218 The rivers and lakes are not about fighting and killing, they are about people's sophistication and a struggle for interests!

At this time, it has gradually entered winter, and the weather is getting colder.

Every day, except for going to the morning court, going to the Imperial College and Detian Mansion to handle official business, Lin Beifan basically stayed at home with nothing to do.

Then put on a charcoal stove, warm some wine, read a book while drinking wine, and live a happy life.

In terms of enjoyment, Lin Beifan never lags behind.

There was a second-year middle school youth beside him, and he sighed regretfully: "The Tianmen Slayer Demon War is over so soon! It's a pity that I couldn't participate in this martial arts event!"

"What are you going to do?" Lin Beifan asked while warming the wine.

"Of course it's to get rid of the magic guard!" Guo Shaoshuai clenched his fists and said a little excitedly: "Tianmen practiced magic skills in an attempt to harm the common people in the martial arts, and everyone will be punished! As a young martial arts hero, I can't participate in this grand meeting, can it be Don't you regret it?"

Lin Beifan sneered: "There is nothing to regret, but it's just fighting for profit!"

"What is for profit? We are for righteousness!" Guo Shaoshuai's face was firm.

"Righteous ass!" Lin Beifan laughed out loud: "What is righteousness and what is evil? No one has been able to tell the difference since ancient times! You keep saying that Tianmen is evil and crooked, but have you seen Tianmen provoke other sects?"

"This..." Guo Shaoshuai was speechless.

"Not at all, it was someone else who provoked him first! He was developing well in his own territory, not causing trouble and not causing trouble, but in the end he was beaten by someone, and he ended up being wiped out, Tianmen Sect Master He is more wronged than Dou E!"

"But, they have practiced magic skills..." Guo Shaoshuai said weakly.

"How do you know it's a magic skill? Could it be that the cultivation method is different and the speed is faster, so it's a magic skill?" Lin Beifan smiled slightly: "In the final analysis, I was just afraid that the Tianmen would grow stronger and erode their interests, so I slandered them For the evil ways of the demon sect, and then attack them in groups!"

"They are so active, but they actually want to take this magic book for themselves! Nine ranks in three days, eight ranks in one month, seven ranks in three months, and one year later they are expected to be congenital. No one can refuse this temptation!"

Lin Beifan chuckled: "I got the news from the six gates. After the war, these decent sects divided up the rest of the Tianmen like spoils of war, and escorted them back! Tell me, what are they doing all these things for? Isn't it easy and troublesome to kill them directly? Is it just because of good intentions that they are spared?"

"At the end of the day, it's because they have learned the evil sword manual, which is like a living sword manual! So arrest these people and let them write out the sword manual silently! In this way, you will have the opportunity to strengthen your own sect!"

"Oh!" Guo Shaoshuai sighed deeply.

Looking at the battered Marshal Guo, Lin Beifan said angrily, "It's a good thing you didn't go, otherwise, with your impulsiveness, you would definitely have gone to waste your life! Let me tell you, the world is not about fighting and killing, it's about the ways of the world. It's a conflict of interests! Don't rush forward if there is nothing wrong, or you will only be hurt by yourself~!"

"Junior brother, what you said is right! You have little experience in the world, so listen to what you say in the future! You are extremely smart, and I will definitely not let you go astray!" Mo Rumin, who was sitting next to her, persuaded.

"I know it too! Ever since I set foot in the rivers and lakes, I found that the rivers and lakes are completely different from what I imagined! I thought that the king of Jibei was the master of the Ming Dynasty, and I was wholeheartedly handled by him, and I followed him to conquer the world! Who knows..."

Guo Shaoshuai smiled wryly: "He turned out to be a pious person. In order to realize his ambition, he would do anything. We were being used without knowing it! After following the son, he found that the world was full of intrigues! I don't even know who I can trust for my own selfishness to join forces to destroy the Tianmen!"

"What a poor baby!"

Lin Beifan said sympathetically, "Young commander, follow me wholeheartedly! As long as I have a bite to eat..."

"My lord!" Guo Shaoshuai's eyes were full of anticipation.

"You have a bowl brush!"

Young Marshal Guo: "..."

At this moment, the little princess rushed in, saw Lin Beifan huddling in front of the stove, and shouted, "Why are you huddling at home again? You're stuck here every day, like an old man!"

Lin Beifan said calmly, "It's freezing outside, but it's warm here like spring. I have no choice!"

"You have too many excuses!" The little princess spread her hands excitedly, holding a big basket in her hand: "Come here, here are the delicious food I brought to you! There are a few more restaurants on the food street New store, I bought this for you, eat it while it's hot!"

"Thank you, little princess! It's so cold outside, is there anyone setting up a stall?" Guo Shaoshuai reached out to take the food.

"Although there are a lot fewer people, there are still a lot of people setting up stalls!"

"Young Marshal, you don't know how hungry you are! The life of the people at the bottom is very hard. If there is a chance to make money, they will desperately seize it! Although it is freezing outside, there are fewer customers and less business, but if you continue to do so Make some money! If you don’t do it, you’ll have no money!”

Lin Beifan took a few skewers while talking.

Grilled on the charcoal fire, the aroma came out, and then I ate it happily.

I have to say, it's really delicious!

The little princess sat next to Lin Beifan, resting his chin on his hands: "Lin Beifan, it's so cold now! You said it would be great if there was a hot pot of Buddha jumping wall now! I heard that winter and Buddha jumping wall are more suitable!"

A pair of big eyeballs blinked and blinked, suggesting crazy.

Lin Beifan was expressionless: "Didn't the Buddha jump over the wall teach you, you go home and do it!"

"But my family's cooking is not as authentic as yours. I always feel that there is something missing!"

Lin Beifan: "Is there a shortage of premium abalone?"

The little princess shook her head: "No shortage!"

Lin Beifan: "Is there a shortage of top-quality sea cucumbers?"

The little princess shook her head again: "There is no shortage!"

Lin Beifan: "Is there a shortage of top-quality wine?"

The little princess shook her head again: "This is not missing either!"

……

Finally, after asking around, it seems that there is nothing missing, but the taste means lack.

Lin Beifan suddenly realized: "Then I know, what are you missing!"

The little princess blinked her big eyes: "What am I missing?"

"You're just short-sighted, I won't give up if you don't toss!" Lin Beifan slammed his head over.

"Oh! I hate it!" The little princess covered her forehead with her hands.

Lin Beifan thought for a while, and said, "It's too late to be a Buddha jumping over the wall, why don't we make hot pot?"

"What is... hot pot?" The little princess asked puzzled.

Sitting beside Mo Rushuang and Guo Shaoshuai looked over curiously.

"Hot pot is a way of cooking and eating gourmet food. It is hot when you eat it. It is salty and fragrant, and it is oily but not greasy. It is most suitable for winter! You don't understand what to say now, you will understand after watching us cook hot pot once!" "

As he spoke, Lin Beifan yelled: "Da Dali, we are having hot pot tonight, you go prepare the dishes!"

"Okay, master! It's long overdue, haha!"

An hour later.

The little princess looked at a small charcoal stove on the table, on which hung a pot of boiling soup, and some lettuce and raw meat beside it, blinked her eyes, and said, "Isn't this just boiled vegetables? What's so strange!"

"Don't look at him, he looks like a boiled dish, but in fact..."

"Actually what?"

"Actually, he is boiled vegetables!"

Little princess: "..."

"However, the method is slightly different from ordinary boiled dishes!" Lin Beifan said with a smile: "Look at other boiled dishes, they are all boiled in water, as long as they are cooked! But our hot pot is actually cooked with It’s hot, the food is cooked! Look here, no matter the vegetables or the meat, we cut them into thin slices, put them in the water and roll them, and after they’re hot, they’re ready to eat!”

The little princess widened her eyes and asked expectantly, "Will it taste better this way?"

"No, it will be more expensive!"

Little princess: "..."

"The main thing is to keep the freshness of the ingredients, as well as the temperature! We used to eat, and when the dishes were ready and served on the table, it may have passed a few cups of tea, or even half a stick of incense! The food is no longer fresh. , it's getting cold too!"

"But now, we eat it in hot pot, and we can eat it right away! The ingredients are not only fresh, but also mild and easy to digest. Isn't that good?"

"What you said makes sense!" The little princess nodded excitedly.

"And finally, a hot pot without sauce has no soul! The biggest difference between hot pot and boiled dishes is the dipping sauce! Boiled dishes are cooked and eaten, but hot pot also needs to be dipped in ingredients , it tastes delicious like this!"

"What dipping sauce do you need?" the little princess asked curiously.

"Look here, Dali is already ready!"

Lin Beifan smiled and pointed to the small dish and bowl next to him: "Here are onions, ginger, garlic, sesame, soy sauce, vinegar, and chili, etc. You can add and mix whatever you want! The same goes for the vegetables, you can boil whatever you want. !"

After Lin Beifan's detailed explanation, everyone finally knew how to eat hot pot, and they were very excited to try it.

When the little princess was about to make a move, Lin Beifan stopped him.

"Little Princess, wait a minute, send this hot pot to the palace, and let His Majesty have a taste!"

"Okay, but don't eat it yet, eat it when I come back!"

The little princess acted quickly, and rushed back immediately after delivering the hot pot.

In the end, everyone tried the way of eating hot pot together, and found that it was really interesting!

Especially in this freezing winter, you can eat hot dishes with every bite, and the ingredients are fresh and delicious.

Moreover, the flavors can be combined at will, which is completely in line with your own appetite.

In this way, everyone ate very satisfactorily and had a great time.

"Lin Beifan, I feel like I said something wrong just now!"

"What's the matter, little princess?"

"I feel that winter is more suitable for hot pot!"

"Little princess, you finally understand!"

At this time, a hot pot has been delivered in front of the empress of the palace.

The empress's heart was full of question marks: "What is this? Why did Lin Aiqing bring the lettuce and raw meat over? How can I swallow this?".

Chapter 219 Disaster victims, are they still human?

The old eunuch smiled and said: "According to the little princess Yunying, this is a new way of eating invented by the Fu Cheng, and the name is hot pot! No matter the vegetables or the meat, they are all raw, but they are all cut into thin slices. Just put them in boiling water, boil them, add some seasonings, and you're ready to eat!"

"Really? It sounds very interesting! I'm going to try it today, what's so amazing about this hot pot!" The empress' interest was raised.

Then, the old eunuch put soup base and charcoal fire on the table, as well as lettuce, raw meat, and various condiments, all neatly placed on the table.

These were all sent by the small group leader. The charcoal fire was burning and the soup was boiling, so they could be eaten directly.

The empress looked at the hot soup in front of her eyes, and at the lettuce and raw meat in front of her, so she picked up a piece of raw meat with her chopsticks, put it into the soup, rolled it, and scalded it according to Lin Beifan's wishes.

Since the raw meat is very thin, it was already cooked by the soup within a few seconds.

Then, the empress put it into an empty bowl and tasted it cautiously.

Although the ingredients are delicious and warm, the taste is a little bit worse.

At this time, she saw a lot of condiments on the side, including onion, ginger, garlic, sesame, soy sauce, sesame oil, pepper, etc., and thought of the old eunuch's words, she poured them into the bowl according to her appetite.

Let the meat in your hand, stir it fully, and put it in your mouth again.

"Hmm! It's delicious to eat like this!"
