The third plate is still seafood, which is a belly of the monster fish and is extremely fine. The method of making catfish belly is as follows: in the summer of June and July, select about two feet long catfish, scrape off the scales, wash it with water, put it aside for two days, wait for the fish belly to distend, then pull out the intestines from the fish's mouth, remove the fish gills, keep the fish eyes, stuff the fish belly with salt, and then use the salt powder to seal its whole body, a few inches thick, after a night, then wash it with water, and put it in the sun to expose to the sun.

In the evening, take it off, put it between the two boards, press the stone on it, and expose it to the sun again the next day. After five or six days of sun pressing, until they are really dry, they are put into a dry porcelain urn, sealed, and then taken out after twenty days. The skin color of the fish is bright and transparent, like butter, and the fish meat is like dry food, just like sand chess crisp! It is slightly salty and flavorful, and it tastes more delicious than the belly of the stone head.

After the three kinds of seafood are served, followed by the delicacies of the land, first a plate of three bean soup, made of "winding beans", "sword beans", "leaning beans", honey soft and sweet, particularly delicious.

Wrapping around the bean, its stem is very weak, itself is intertwined with each other, the vitality is very strong, "the sword bean", its pod is like a sword held by a person, it grows horizontally and obliquely, and it makes people feel strong when they eat it, "the fence bean", when they see the sun, they hang down the leaves and cover the beans, so the beans are often delicate. The three types of beans are boiled into bean soup based on their characteristics, and it is said that eating them can prolong people's lives, keep their skin from aging, and prevent them from getting sick.

After the dessert is served, it is a plate of barbecue to eliminate the spirit of the fire, which is a kind of meat of the spirit goat, a sheep only takes four taels of tenderloin from the abundant spiritual energy on the back, and concocts the roast moxibustion to make it not lose its aura, and it does not rot and stink after the poisonous heat of the summer.

Immediately followed by another plate of dried meat, red chest, this dried meat is not the meat of the real meat, but it is also the meat of the demon Jiao. Put it on a plate, the tendons are like red silk, one foot high, press it down with chopsticks, less than three or four minutes thick, and return to its original shape after not pressing.

After the meat of the two demon beasts is served, the flax cake is served on the table with the flax cake on the glass plate, the flax cake is used "Guangtong hemp", the person who eats this hemp seed does not need to rely on candles when walking, and sees the day as bright, can prolong life and live forever.

The next two plates were two kinds of spirit fruits, the first plate of immortal fruits was brish-red, as big as a fist, and it looked like a flower red fruit in the world, and it was extremely fragrant.

Another plate of fresh fruit is water chestnut, in the pond of this Chunxiao Garden, there is a plant called "inverted water chestnut", there are ten leaves under a flower, the flower stem is like a mess, the roots float on the water, and the fruit falls into the silt at the bottom of the pond. The mud at the bottom of the pond is purple and is called "purple mud rhombus". Eating it can make people not age.

However, those who can enjoy such top-level treatment are limited to the concubines, princes, princesses, and county lords in the palace and the royal palace. In addition, the dignitaries, although there are also delicious delicacies in front of them, compared with the food in the palace, it is simply the same as chewing wax. As for the servants and retinue, it was a simple sweet myrtle spirit food that was not worth talking about.

After the nine plates were served, after a while, the royal family and the royal family members placed five colors of nectar in front of them, and this nectar was taken from the dew plate of the fairy Cheng Terrace. The spiritual energy in the Chunxiao Garden is abundant, and the spiritual materials are planted all over the place, and there are spirit beasts, and in this Chunxiao Garden, the place with the most spiritual energy is the fairy bearing terrace. Every day when the morning sun rises, the bearing terrace will be covered with five-colored auspicious clouds, and the brilliance will shine.

As soon as these five-colored auspicious clouds are collected by the five trays on the terrace of the immortals, they will turn into five-colored dewdrops, and the taste of the dew is very sweet. This tray is a five-color five-material plate, namely a gold plate, a black jade plate, a red coral plate, a white crystal plate and a green rattan plate, corresponding to the collection of black, white, blue, yellow, red five colors of dew, packed in a cyan glass cup, with five colors to the five organs and five elements, to the practitioner of great benefit. In addition to the royal family members, the five-colored dew will also be rewarded to the ministers, and the ministers will drink the dew and shout long live.

Fortunately, the dance taught by Nangong Yuhuan is not quite the same as the dance that Nanhua is used to seeing, so after Nalan Sanshu performed, the response was quite violent and the applause was overwhelming, Nangong Yuhuan put down a hanging heart, although he did not perform by himself, but he also taught it by himself, if the ranking was too bad, wouldn't it be a smashing of his own signboard.

According to Nangong Yuhuan's speculation, although Nalan Sanshu's performance may not necessarily be able to achieve the top three, it is estimated that there is still hope for the top ten, and this result is enough to be proud of.

On the fifth day, seeing that the competition was nearing the end, I suddenly saw a few servants in the yellow door carrying the chime frame on the fairy Cheng terrace, Orr hung the green jade chime, everyone looked at it, the chime was made of Lantian green jade, the shelf of the chime carved beams and paintings were extremely exquisite, and tassels and other things were made, and inlaid with rare treasures such as gold and pearls. Let people cast two golden lions, as a grabbing and jumping, each weighing 200 catties, as the base of the hanging chime support. The color paintings in other places are also intricately decorated, and the workmanship is unparalleled.

When the concubine saw this, she frowned, and asked the attendant on the side: "The green jade chime on the stage, did Princess Taizhen ask you to move it?"

The attendant hurriedly replied, "The servant will go and ask." ”

After a while, he came over and replied: "It is Princess Taizhen's decree." ”

When the concubine heard this, she couldn't help but be furious: "Taizhen, why is it so nonsense! This banquet is limited to the royal family and the families of foreign ministers, and male members of the royal family can also participate, but only the princesses can attend, but they are not allowed to participate in the performance, don't she know? Why don't you pull her down for me?" ”

Concubine Xi was busy persuading on the side: "Sister, why bother, I think that Taizhen, this child, can move the green jade chime from the palace here, the emperor must know about it, the emperor didn't say anything, why should my sister care about her?"

The concubine sighed and said, "I'm just afraid that she will be pampered and arrogant! ”

Concubine Shu smiled and said: "How can it be, my sister is so favored in front of the emperor, and Princess Taizhen will please the emperor, how can the emperor blame?"

After such a delay, Princess Taizhen had already gone to the fairy terrace, and the breeze blew the fairy robe fluttering on her body, Ying Ying bowed and looked around, she was really born beautiful and difficult to give up, the snow skin and flowers were uneven, and the clouds and temples were shaking.

Princess Taizhen holds a black jade mallet in her hand, raises her wrist to strike, the sound of slapping, Ling Lingran, very pleasant to the ear, although she doesn't know what kind of song she plays, but it is very touching and beautiful, everyone is saying in their hearts, I am afraid that there are few chime masters who can compete with Princess Taizhen in this world, right?
