Chapter 357 A Chicken
In the garden of the Governor of Bordeaux, the bonfire was burning vigorously. The simple stone stove was painted with vegetarian oil, and the elbow stewed in the pot. A few pieces of beef on the stone were roasted and oily.
Margaret sat on the wooden stool holding a glass of wine, smiling, and Chen Jiujing held a pipe in one hand and a teacup in the other, looking helplessly at Bourbon Henry, who was frying beef with a small shovel by the bonfire and Viscount Tirena who was beside him.
Viscount Tirena is named Henry de La Ture Dovene.
Another two-way Henry, and like Henry's outrageous name, another Queen Margo's lover.
"I just told him not to try to cook for you. They are not as good as your cook together." Margaret smiled and her shoulders shook, so that the wine in the cup was spilled out. She waved her hand in front of Chen Jiujing: "He is so enthusiastic, do you know? I have never seen you so scared. I can guarantee that the hair on the back of your neck is standing up!"
Chen Jiujing walked out of his daze, no longer nostalgic for the extremely burning fire, turned around and smiled, "Are you afraid? The smell of garlic came over the night... Humph, you didn't think about mu before seeing me. Forget it, you can't get your wounds touching water, at least rinse your mouth!"
As he said that, Chen Jiujing raised his hand and pointed at Viscount Tirener who turned his head with Bourbon Henry and said, "Turn your head, you are Hun Laowu; Margo, can you tell me the Gith in the north for me? From now on, he will call Hun Lao6."
Since the Kingdom of Navarra is small and next to Spain, they can communicate properly in Spanish. In their context, no one objected to the nickname because it was really called this.
For example, Henry III, the exact name is the third Henry. Isn’t this the third brother?
"Actually, when I was not injured, I took a bath every morning. You know what it means to take a bath every morning on our land. I am a rare handsome man who loves cleanness." Bourbon Henry skillfully brushed the beef with Spanish olive oil like a hunter in the mountains, fryed two garlic heads, turned his head and raised his eyebrows, "But they all think I smell like a wild boar, you don't know how wronged I am!"
"Yes, you take a shower every morning, but after hunting, you don't take a shower, eat garlic every day, and suck your mouth from hell on the bed." It can be seen that Bourbon Henry woke up and made Margaret feel very good. Her smile never stopped, and she looked a little crazy. She picked up the wine glass and took a big sip. Then she finally hid her smile and put it on Chen Jiujing's shoulders and said, "When we were still in Paris, he once made an appointment with a girl to go to the room at night."
"That was a very beautiful woman with a beautiful figure and face. The center of the court dance. Even women would fall in love with her! But he missed a great opportunity. Why do you?" Margaret opened her hand and took Chen Jiujing's pipe, and her face deliberately sternly suddenly laughed: "In the bed, he vomited that woman!"
"I really vomited all over the bed."
Margaret, Bourbon Henry and Viscount Tirener all laughed, but Chen Jiujing unconsciously thought about their relationship and this joke, so it was difficult to laugh from the bottom of his heart.
However, seeing that he did not laugh, the three of them laughed happier. Margaret said to the two: "I have said the happy things in the Nine Classics are different from ours, and he is very restrained."
Chen Jiujing didn't say anything, which brought a little embarrassment to Queen Margo's little harem, but soon Margaret found a new topic and asked: "You just watched them get distracted, and it didn't seem like you were surprised by the king playing with fire, what were you thinking?"
"I was thinking...if your lovers were all twisting together." Chen Jiujing shrugged with a teacup and said, "The French war would have been gone long ago."
This made the three people burst into laughter. Chen Jiujing thought helplessly that the nobles of Europa must have practiced how to laugh anytime and anywhere, just like they had practiced how to spit and blow their noses since childhood. This atmosphere made people feel that fart could make them laugh.
In fact, Chen Jiujing is sure that if he can fart at this moment, these three people can laugh out loud.
But this time, people's smiles gradually solidified, which really made the atmosphere cold. Margaret drank the wine in the glass in one go, squinted the wine beside her lips and shook her head expressionlessly: "In France and even Europa, no one can twist into a rope. No, you can't find such a person."
"We are not as clean as Ming Dynasty. This war will never end. When tens of thousands of people are born, hundreds of thousands will die. France will be destroyed and nothing will be left."
Margaret poured wine with a bottle, Bourbon Henry put the fried beef on a plate on the wooden table in front of Chen Jiujing. His hands were rubbed on his pants with oil stains. He picked up two glasses and handed them to his vassal Viscount Tirena and then picked up his own, and said, "I have tried everything that can stop the war, including marrying Margot, which is useless."
"They want to kill us all, my people need to gain more power, everyone wants to get their own, Spain, Italy, Rome, Switzerland, England, Germany and the Netherlands, every country intervenes, everyone wants to destroy peace, this is a land without hope... respect France!"
"Sir France!"
The three people raised their wine glasses, and Chen Jiujing felt that it was more like early mourning than celebrating. He also picked up the teacup and clinked them. After a sip, he asked Bourbon Henry, "What about you?"
He heard Bourbon Henry almost talk about everyone, that the Catholics wanted to kill all the Huguenot rebels, that the Huguenot rebels wanted to gain more power, and that there were so many countries that intervened in it, but Bourbon Henry did not talk about himself.
"I?"
Wine is wine for everyone, but it is like a red drink for Bourbon Henry.
His drinking posture was not at all elegant. He raised his head and poured it into his throat, just like he had to bite it into his mouth with meat one after another. He had a drink and then said with a pursed mouth: "Anyone can push his destiny forward, and I, I don't know what my destiny is, and I can't control it."
"I don't want anything, in this war? I just want to live, live today, and live tomorrow... to survive."
Bourbon Henry asked and answered: "It's too difficult."
He snatched Chen Jiujing's pipe from Margaret, but obviously he had never smoked. He followed suit but coughed fiercely. Chen Jiujing pointed to the pipe with a smile and said, "I'm giving it to you, you can learn well... We can cook a few dishes and eat slowly."
The answer to him was Bourbon Henry with a big hand waved: "I never eat vegetables. The nobles eat two meals a day, and the farmers eat three meals. People can only eat this food a day. I don't know how many days I can live, so I can't eat vegetables. I don't want to die one day and eat a bunch of rotten vegetables like a rabbit in the last meal."
"If I have the chance to survive, I want Navarra to have religious freedom and free thoughts. Every farmer has a chicken in the pot on weekends, haha!"
When Pol Henry proposed to raise his glass for another day of living, Chen Jiujing was sure that he had drunk too much, because he heard Henry begging him to get another bottle of the fragrant wine that the doctor poured on his wound.
He said that the taste was like the brandy given to him by the Dutch parishioners, but it was actually soju. Brandy means soju and distilled wine.
This is also the method that the Netherlands merchants came up with to trade with wine to the New World recently. They distilled the wine, called brandy.
Soju is available on call, but Bourbon Henry is just able to drink, but the alcohol content is obviously not large.
I had no time to speak after drinking a cup like that, and my legs slipped under the wooden stake holder as soon as I felt weak.
This is a hard and hard-working person.
