I want to ruin the country

In a short while, there were twenty or thirty dishes on the table.

Four-happiness meatballs, braised puffer fish, scallion-fried sea cucumber, roast suckling pig, etc. are lined up in cups and plates, and the aroma is everywhere.

The colors are even better, white like jade, red like fire, green like emerald, colorful and eye-catching, which makes people's mouths water!

Holy shit, wasn’t Emperor Daoguang very frugal? Why does his son eat in such a grand manner now?

He touched his nose and thought, don't worry about it for now, just eat what you can, and talk about it after you are full. Let's get started!

I tasted it, haha, it’s delicious!

The chefs in the imperial kitchen are really good. Without technology and hard work nowadays, I wonder how they can make these dishes so delicious!

Especially the roast suckling pig. I had never eaten it in Yining before I traveled through time. This time I tried it. It was really crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and not greasy at all. It melted in my mouth. It was so damn delicious.

He ate a lot, but he was not used to the eunuchs busying around picking up food for him, making him feel as if he was a disabled person!

Finally he got really fed up,

"Li Baoquan, let me eat by myself from now on. All of you get out of here. I'm not disabled!"

Li Baoquan was stunned at first, then he immediately grinned.

"Your Majesty, you used to let your servants serve you!"

"The past is the past, and the future is the future. What if my words don't count?"

"Whoo!"

Li Baoquan stepped aside and dared not speak.

I've suffered so much in England these past few years. I haven't had a good Chinese meal at all!

This time he finally satisfied his craving, and it was an imperial meal, so Yining was very happy.

I just feel a little regretful. It would be great if Catherine could taste this authentic royal meal with me!

Thinking of Catherine, I couldn't help feeling a little depressed. Forget it, I won't eat it. Damn, I'm so upset!

"Li Baoquan, you performed well today and didn't embarrass me. These dishes are for you to enjoy!"

Li Baoquan quickly knelt down and kowtowed.

"I dare not take credit for it!"

"Don't talk nonsense, just eat it!"

"Ah, thank you, Your Majesty!"

Li Baoquan waved his hand and several young eunuchs came over to clean up the dishes.

Yining shouted,

"Don't move, just eat here!"

"what?!"

The eunuchs were all stunned. Eating at the emperor's table, did they really want to have a head? Even if it was just leftover soup and rice, that was not acceptable!

Yining Road,

"What are you staring at? Hurry up and eat. Everyone wants to eat a meal!"

The young eunuchs all looked at Li Baoquan. Li Baoquan looked at the emperor and saw that the emperor was not joking. Fearing that the emperor would get angry, he hurriedly said,

"Kowtowing to express gratitude, didn't you hear the emperor say that everyone should go hungry for a meal?"

The eunuchs knelt down and kowtowed to express their gratitude.

Yining waved his hand.

"Hurry up and eat here. Whoever eats the most will get a reward, including you!"

As he spoke, he pointed at a few palace maids.

The eunuchs and palace maids gathered around the table and started eating tremblingly.

While eating, they stole glances at the emperor. Seeing that the emperor was watching them eat happily, they gradually lost their scruples and started eating. In a short while, the basins and bowls on the table were clean.

Yining grabbed a handful of golden melon seeds and threw them to Li Baoquan.

"You guys ate well, reward!"

Then he pointed at a few palace maids,

"You guys can't let go, no reward!"

The palace maids are so regretful. If they had known this earlier, they would have eaten with their mouths wide open!

After dinner, I had nothing to do, so I sat on a chair and looked around.

Even now, he still finds it hard to believe that he has really traveled through time!

Yining was born in the countryside. His family was well-off when he was young. A few years ago, his father failed in business and owed one or two million in foreign debt. He had to run away during the Chinese New Year to avoid debt.

During the years I was in college, I could only barely make ends meet with the help of relatives and friends and my own part-time job.

Whenever he has a little free time, reading novels on his mobile phone becomes the only pastime he can afford.

He had read some novels about time travel and rebirth. Sometimes when life was really difficult, he also fantasized that he could travel through time or be reborn.

Traveling back to ancient times, he made a fortune with his advanced modern knowledge and lived a life of luxury where he could do whatever he wanted.

And he really had such a dream, but after waking up, he was still that poor boy in reality.

After going to study in Great Britain, he met his girlfriend Catherine, whose family was super rich.

He was no longer short of money, so not only did he stop dreaming of time travel and reincarnation, he even stopped reading novels of that kind.

He also believes that the so-called time travel and rebirth is nonsense, and is nothing more than the fantasy of some people who are unhappy in real life!

But this time it was different. He looked at the dragon robe he was wearing, touched the thick braid at the back of his head, and tugged hard. It hurt! He had truly traveled through time!

He touched his nose and thought, since he had traveled through time, he might as well take a good look at the place where he lived. In the past, you had to pay for a ticket to go to the Forbidden City, and you were not allowed to look around inside. Now, he can just stroll around!

The place where I live now is Xianfu Palace. As far as I can remember, Emperor Xianfeng lived here to observe mourning for his father.

He also remembered that in history, Emperor Xianfeng gave a seal to Empress Dowager Ci'an and Empress Dowager Cixi respectively. The seal given to Empress Dowager Cixi was called "Tongdaotang", and "Tongdaotang" was here.

I think the reason is that Empress Dowager Cixi lived in "Tongdaotang" when she was still Noble Lady Yi.

Even after Cixi came to power, whenever she encountered important matters that she was undecided about, she would come here and think about them while looking at the plaque "Kejingju" written by Emperor Xianfeng.

It seems that the old witch Cixi still has feelings for Emperor Xianfeng.

Xianfu Palace is a two-courtyard building with three large characters "Xianfu Palace" on the plaque on the main hall of the front courtyard.

The shape of Xianfu Palace is different from the other five palaces in the western six palaces, but it is the same as the shape of Jingyang Palace, which is located symmetrically with the eastern six palaces.

On the east wall of the hall hangs Emperor Qianlong's "Praise of the Imperial Concubine as a Bear," and on the west wall hangs a painting of the Imperial Concubine as a Bear. Small doors on the walls on either side of the gable lead to the backyard.

There are three side halls in the front, each with several side rooms. The main hall in the backyard is the Tongdao Hall, which is five rooms wide and has three side rooms in the east and west.

A plaque with the words "Qin De Ting" hangs in the east room of the hall, and a plaque with the words "Hua Chan Shi" hangs in the west room.

Among the scrolls are Wang Wei's "Snowy Stream" and Mi Zhihui's "Xiaoxiang White Clouds".

These are all collections of Dong Qichang from the Ming Dynasty, which is why the room got its name.

Yining looked at the furnishings in the room. They didn't look very impressive now, but they would be so damn luxurious in the future!

The calligraphy and paintings on the wall were all from famous artists. The tables, chairs, and dragon couches were all made of small-leaf red sandalwood and camphor wood. The porcelains in the room were from various dynasties. The worst of all was the teacup for drinking water, which was also made in the official kiln during the Daoguang period.

Damn it, any piece of it is a cultural relic, some are even priceless.
