Although Jiang Xia felt very happy when he beat Wang Quanshi, he began to feel a headache when he left the playground. Now he had broken his face with Wang Quan. If he failed to win the afternoon competition in the end, I am afraid the Xia family would not be able to stay there.

After leaving the Atrium Courtyard, Jiang Xia went back to the Servant Courtyard to sleep. When he woke up, it was almost noon. Jiang Xia quickly got up and sorted out his appearance, and began to walk to the backyard...

In the imperial study room of the capital, the imperial palace.

Zhu Zaijiang, wearing a dragon robe, was reviewing the memorials. Soon the door of the imperial study room was pushed open with a creaking sound. Zhu Zaijiang put down the cinnabar pen in his hand and looked up. There were not many people who dared to enter his imperial study room without any information. This one in front of him was one of them.

The visitor walked to Zhu Zaijiang and knelt down on one knee and said, "I'm here to see the emperor."

Zhu Zaijiang waved his hand and signaled the visitor to stand up. He shouted: "Uncle Li. Come to see me, but has Jiang Xia's whereabouts fall?"

The person who could call Zhu Zaijiang "Uncle Li" was naturally Li Bayi, the core figure of the royal family. At this moment, he was wearing a long black suit, with his right sleeves empty. It was obvious that he was the master who was cut off by Jiang Xia's right hand in Ruyunzhou by Jiang Xia's sword.

After hearing Zhu Zaijiang's words, Li Bayi shook his head and said, "I am incompetent and I can't find Jiang Xia's whereabouts for the time being. This time, I have reported several other things to the emperor."

"Oh? But it's okay." Zhu Zaijiang said.

"It is about the recent movements of those under Jiang Xia. Yu Dayou and Ma Yunlong's hundreds of thousands of naval troops have arrived in a place called the Philippines and fought several battles with the Franchisemen there. Now the 'Philippines' has been occupied by Yu Dayou and others, but there is news that the Franchisemen are sending a large number of warships to the Philippines."

"I ordered people to hand over the whereabouts and combat plans of Yu Dayou and the others to the Franji people, so that Yu Dayou and the others were dragged in the Philippines and could not return to the court."

"yes."

"In addition, Xiao Sha, Qian Juexing, Yin Renmin, Bu Jinyun, Ma Yunfeng, Yu Ren, Leng Yu, Zhang Meng, and a large number of disciples from Qianmen have now gone outside the pass. Should we do something?"

"Catch them with all their might and let them be buried outside the pass forever. In addition, like Yan Luo, the Minister of Rites, and Wang Renen, the Minister of Revenue, immediately collect all their strength in collecting evidence of their corruption. If there is one, kill them. If there is no one, they will be fabricated out of thin air and they will be killed!"

"Yes." Li Bayi responded, and then prepared to withdraw from the imperial study. Before leaving, he suddenly remembered something and turned to Zhu Zaijiang and said, "By the way, the emperor. According to the spies in Fujian, it was said that it was because Yu Dayou and his navy army had all left Fujian, so pirates are now growing rampant in Fujian. Do you think you want to send someone to rectify it?"

"No need for now. When the overall situation stabilizes, the pirates will be destroyed in a blink of an eye."

The Xia family’s backyard. The assessment of Xia Lin’s companion study children is in progress. Jiang Xia, Wang Quan’s nephew Wang Zhi, and Ma Tong’s nephew Ma Wencai, the three of them stood in the backyard at the same time, waiting for Xia Jialun’s assessment.

Next to Xia Jialun, Xu Fengxian and Mei Yunyun were all there. In addition, Xia Lin, Wang Quan, Ma Tong and others were also there. Jiang Xia stood beside Wang Zhi, feeling a little distracted as usual.

Wang Zhi, who was beside him, suddenly whispered to Jiang Xia: "Boy, I heard that you attacked my uncle today. Very good, you are dead!"

Jiang Xia turned her head, looked down at Wang Zhi, and snorted coldly.

Xia Jialun announced that this assessment is divided into two types: "knowledge" and "consistency". The first thing to do is to guess the riddle.

Xia Jialun prepared a total of twenty riddles for Jiang Xia and the others to guess. Three of them answered quickly. Those who answered the questions correctly were considered winners.

After confirming that the three of them were ready, Xia Jialun began to display riddles. The riddle of the first riddle was: "Don't say it early, don't say it late. Type a word."

Almost the moment Xia Jialun just showed it, Jiang Xia had already expressed the answer: "Xu."

Wang Zhi was slightly stunned, and then immediately came over. If he didn't say it early or late, it would be said at noon. If he had added the word "日" and "日" wouldn't it be the word "日"?

Xia Jialun looked at Jiang Xia with some wonder, nodding with a hint of appreciation in his eyes: "You win this game."

Xia Lin also nodded to Jiang Xia and continued to display the second riddle. The riddle was: Confucius climbed the mountain.

This time, Jiangxia was faster than last time, and she said directly: "Yue". This riddle is not difficult, and Ma Wencai also thought of it. Confucius' real name is Confucius, and his mountain climbing means that the word "Qiu" is on the word "Shan".

Wang Zhi stomped his feet, and then he felt that Jiang Xia was not an easy opponent to deal with, and he underestimated him.

"You win this game." Xia Jialun said again.

Twenty riddles, each of which has a different riddle. But the result has not changed since the beginning. As soon as Xia Jialun showed the question, Jiang Xia basically didn't need to consider it and could immediately tell the answer.

Jokes, guessing riddles, and pairs, these are the remaining ones that our Grand Master Jiang plays with.

"Okay! He An won the 'learn' level. Next, I will take a look at the 'response' ability of the three of you." Xia Jialun smiled slightly and said, "I want you to make two dishes. You can choose to make or not. Those who choose to make it will win if they make it, and those who can't make it will lose if they can't make it. If you three choose not to make it, then try another round."

"Two dishes? What dishes?" Wang Zhi asked Xia Jialun subconsciously.

Xia Jialun frowned slightly, feeling that Wang Zhi was a little rude. When he talked to him, he didn't even know how to shout "Master" or "Adult". Xia Jialun said: "One must cut a raw egg with a knife, and the egg yolk must not flow out. Second, fry the ice cubes, and the ice cubes must not melt."

"Cut raw eggs with a knife? Fry ice cubes?" Jiang Xia thought for a while, and immediately made a decision.

"How is it? Is any of you three willing to try making these two dishes?" Xia Jialun asked.

Ma Wencai and Wang Zhi looked at each other, and they looked confused, obviously not going to try it.

Xia Jialun looked at Jiang Xia, obviously trying to see if Jiang Xia is willing to try it.

Jiang Xia smiled slightly and said, "Okay, since the master is happy, that kid will make these two dishes for him to try."

After saying that, Jiang Xia said, "Please ask the old man to make a fire here, take three raw eggs and a kitchen knife!"

"He An!" Xia Lin couldn't help but scream, "You think clearly and don't be impulsive."

Xia Jialun said before that if you choose to cook, you will win if you make it, and if you can't make it, you will lose if you choose not to cook. If you choose not to cook, you can try it extra.

Xia Lin knew very well that once the raw eggs were cut open, it was impossible not to let go of the yolks. As for the ice cubes, let alone frying them in oil. Even if they were taken out of the ice cellar and placed in the open air, they would definitely melt water. How could they not melt in the oil pan?

Jiang Xia was actually preparing to complete two things that seemed completely impossible to accomplish. This made Xia Lin wonder whether Jiang Xia was showing off.

Xu Fengxian glanced at Xia Lin, then smiled slightly, and scolded Wang Quan: "Wang Quan, why are you still standing? Eggs, kitchen knives, make fire!"

When Wang Quan heard this, he immediately understood what it meant. After answering, he quickly went down and prepared.

After a while, the chef of the Xia family, Liu Yidao, brought his apprentice Xia Yuan to the backyard.

Xu Fengxian said, "Why are you still standing there? The master wants a fire, a kitchen knife, and three raw eggs, why don't you prepare it quickly?"

"Yes." Xia Yuan responded and began to prepare what he wanted for Jiang Xia.

During the preparation period, Jiang Xia asked Liu Yidao for a pair of tongs and a bowl of oil. After the fire was born in the hall, Jiang Xia applied the cutting edge of the kitchen knife to the oil, and then took the tongs and placed the kitchen knife on the fire to roast it.

The kitchen knife was roasted for nearly a stick of incense, and the edge of the knife was already red. Jiang Xia carefully wrapped the knife handle of the kitchen knife with a towel, and then looked at Xia Jialun, "Master, the knife you want to cut the raw eggs, please look carefully."

After saying that, Jiang Xia took a raw egg and placed the red-hot kitchen knife on the raw egg. Because the kitchen knife was burned by fire, it made a "ziz" sound when it touched the eggshell.

Then Jiang Xia began to press the kitchen knife down hard, and the eggs were quickly scalded due to the heat from the blade. Until Jiang Xia completely cut the eggs and did not flow out any yolks or egg whites.

Wang Quan was stunned at this moment. He murmured to himself: "Oh my god, my dear mother, this... this is really just cutting a raw egg with a knife."

While the heat on the blade was still there, Jiang Xia quickly cut two eggs in a row. Without exception, neither the egg yolk nor the egg white flowed out.

This time it was not just Wang Quan, but Ma Wencai and Wang Zhi were also disbelief. Jiang Xia clapped his hands and turned to Xia Yuan and said, "Brother Xia, please put these eggs on the plate and give them to the master and wife to taste."

Xia Yuan nodded with a smile, put the eggs on the dish, and put half of them in front of Xia Jialun and the others. Xu Fengxian and the others were a little unbelievable, so they took the eggs and peeled them. Although the surface of the egg was boiled, the inside was not cooked, so once they were peeled, the egg white would flow out immediately.

Xu Fengxian threw the egg in his hand to the ground and shouted at Jiang Xia: "Okay, you'll get confused by this level. What about the fried ice cubes? Fry it and show me."

Jiang Xia smiled slightly, as if she had already had a solution, and her face looked confident.

He first clasped his fists and said to Xia Jialun: "Grandpa, please wait for a while." Then he turned around and walked to Liu Yidao, and whispered a few words to Liu Yidao. Liu Yidao nodded to Jiang Xia, and then pulled Xia Yuan away.

After a while, Liu Yidao and Xia Yuan returned to the backyard. The two of them set up a pot in the backyard, poured oil in, and set the fire to start heating.

When heating the oil in the pan, Liu Yidao kneaded the flour. When the kneading was almost done, the oil in the pan was basically heated.

Jiang Xia looked at Xia Yuan, and Xia Yuan carried a wooden barrel to Jiang Xia. The barrel contained the ice cubes they had just gotten from the ice cellar.

Jiang Xia wrapped the ice cubes into the flour kneaded by Liu Yidao, then threw them into the oil pan and passed them over, and then quickly took them out of the pan.

This time, Jiang Xia personally brought the dish to Xu Fengxian and Xia Jialun and the others, and then said, "Please bite this ice cream roll and try it."

Xu Fengxian looked at Jiang Xia suspiciously, then couldn't help but be curious, and took the oil roll on the plate and took a bite. As expected, the ice cubes in the center of the oil roll were still intact and were not heated by the oil pan. This principle is actually very simple. The kneaded flour wrapped around the ice cubes. After throwing it off the oil pan, the flour was the first to be heated. The ice cubes had not felt the heat at all, so they naturally would not melt.

Just when Xu Fengxian was still surprised and suspicious, Xia Jialun was already laughing: "Okay! Very good. This position as a student boy will be He An from now on!"

As soon as Xia Jialun finished speaking, the head of the Fuqing County Government Office suddenly ran to the backyard. As soon as the head of the captain saw Xia Jialun, he immediately knelt down and said, "Master, it's not good! The pirates just came ashore and broke into the county government office silver warehouse. All the kuyin in the silver warehouse were stolen by them!"

"What?" Xia Jialun exclaimed.
Chapter completed!
