151. Bet Covenant
For a time, the people in the hall had their own thoughts.
At this time, General Xiao's sword dance had also come to an end, and I saw him close his momentum, stand firmly, and arch his hand towards the direction of the emperor above.
Princess Xia Bo was the first to shout, Xiao Mingxia turned to look at her, nodded slightly in thanks, and with his movements, beads of sweat the size of beans on his forehead rolled down the smooth skin, slid over the well-defined chin, and the high raised Adam's apple, and finally submerged into the collar.
Princess Xia Bo swallowed her saliva for no reason, watched him walk quickly back to his position, and sat down with a golden knife, her heart beating a little fast!
Next, there are a few who are either boxing or dancing with swords, but compared with General Xiao's sword dance, it is simply a child's flower fist embroidered legs, and Princess Xia Bo is so excited that she finally finished displaying everything, and the second prince suddenly stood up.
"The former Japanese prince was fortunate to meet the princess and fell in love with the princess at first sight, so I would like to take this opportunity to show the prince's love for the princess."
Everyone was surprised, the second prince also wants to show his talents?
The emperor was also interested, and paid attention to the second prince who had been ignored by him for a long time: "So what is the second child going to show today?" ”
The second prince arched his hand to the emperor and said: "Erchen heard that Princess Xia Bo loves food, and no meat is not happy, so he specially hired a chef who is very skilled in making meat to come, hoping that the father can allow Erchen to build a stove on the spot, so that the chef can show his cooking skills for Princess Xia Bo in the main hall, this prince can guarantee that if she is lucky enough to be selected by Princess Xia Bo, the princess will be able to taste such a feast on the tip of the tongue every day in the Great Zhou in the future." ”
Princess Xia Bo was curious: "Could it be that the chef you invited can make a better dish than the woman surnamed Ning?" "Since she ate the dishes made by Ning Xi that day, Princess Xia Bo has never forgotten it, so much so that no matter what she eats in the past few days, she feels tasteless.
She even thought that if Jun Qianyu had to marry the one surnamed Ning, then she could even accept serving a husband with two daughters as a flat wife, as long as she could eat delicious food every day.
The sentence asked by Princess Xia Bo was also the voice of many people present, at least Jun Qianyu would never believe that anyone could make a dish that was more delicious than Ningxi, and even the emperor was very curious, and waved his hand: "Quasi-play!" ”
After all, the people in the palace are all well-trained, and the materials and tools for building the stove have been prepared early in the morning, just waiting for an order, those things have been moved in, put together, and a simple stove has been set up, and all kinds of processed ingredients have also been sent in at a low price and put on the long table on the side.
In the end, the chef also came out, dressed in snow-white clothes, with a high hat on his head, Jun Qianyu wanted to laugh when he saw it, who else could there be in this unique chef costume in the whole Great Zhou?
It turned out that the chef invited by the two princes was actually the chief chef of Sungai Building, the fat man Rong Daquan.
But this Rong Daquan is now not only the chief chef of Sungai Building, but also one of the shareholders, every month is a large amount of dividends from the restaurant, and his eyelids are not shallow, what conditions did these two princes open to invite him over? Or was it coercion by violent means?
Thinking of this, Jun Qianyu couldn't help but look back at a glance not far behind him, where a person dressed as a little girl winked at him, Jun Qianyu saw a little cunning look in her eyes, and immediately understood.
Wu Shiqing behind the bead curtain has been paying attention to Jun Qianyu and Princess Xia Bo, and now Princess Xia Bo's attention is attracted by the stove and chef in front, Wu Shiqing has focused more on Jun Qianyu, so she naturally saw the interaction between him and the person behind him just now.
The people in the back row were all the people who were waiting with the princes, so Wu Shiqing hadn't paid close attention to it, and then after a closer look, she found that the person was actually Ning Xi dressed in men's clothes!
Wu Shiqing smiled coldly and said to herself: "You came just in time, I'm afraid you won't come!" ”
Rong Daquan's skills were already good, and he was taught by her hand in hand with Ning Xi for so many times, and his cooking skills are quite good now, and he makes the signature dish of Shuangxi Building, which he has to make several times almost every day, so skillful that he knows how to do it with his eyes closed, and the proportion of ingredients, the weight of seasoning and the mastery of heat are all perfect.
In their imagination, cooking is a smoky, sweaty and rough job, and the people who do this kind of work are naturally vulgar.
But they didn't expect that Rong Daquan, a clumsy fat man, actually made dishes as if he was dancing, with a confident charm between his hands and every move, and the white chef's uniform also brought an elegant and clean bearing to his movements.
As for the taste, you don't need to taste it at all, just smelling this tempting smell will know that it is absolutely delicious.
Some of Sungai Lou's regular customers have now begun to reminisce about the taste of a certain dish.
The second prince couldn't hide his smug look at Princess Xia Bo: "I don't know what the princess thinks?" ”
Princess Xia Bo praised sincerely: "It seems that we were indeed lonely and unheard of before, you Da Zhou really hid the dragon and crouching tiger, and you can take out a person with such good cooking skills!" Although the dishes made by Ning Xi that day were delicious, they were too weird after all, so in her eyes, this Rong Daquan was even more powerful than Ning Xi, which gave her the feeling that there were powerful cooks everywhere in Da Zhou.
The second prince was choked by her words, what does it mean to "take out a random person"? This Rong Chef was invited by him in a low voice after he put down his body!
In fact, when the second prince went to invite Rong Daquan for the first time, Rong Daquan didn't dare to agree casually, but hurriedly asked someone to send a message to Ning Xi and asked her what to do.
The dishes made by Rong Daquan were divided into small portions and presented to the emperor, the princes and Princess Xia Bo, as well as the queen mother, queen and others behind the bead curtain, as for other men and ordinary concubines, they were not so happy.
The emperor was satisfied, and asked Princess Xia Bo happily: "I wonder what Princess Xia Bo thinks of my son of Da Zhou?" ”
Princess Xia Bo replied: "Naturally, they are all very good. ”
"Then I wonder which one the princess has taken a fancy to?"
Princess Xia Bo rolled her eyes and looked at everyone present, the second prince doesn't have to think about it, if those delicious dishes are made by himself, then you can also think about it, since it was made by someone else, he can please move, can she Dayue Princess please not move?
Her eyes swirled back and forth on Jun Qianyu and Xiao Mingxia, although this General Xiao is very good, and his strong figure is more in line with her Dayue princess's aesthetics, but after all, the identity is there, and, no matter what, Jun Qianyu is also her savior!
Seeing Princess Xia Bo's hesitant gaze, Xiao Mingxia instinctively felt that something was wrong, thinking of King Yu's entrustment to him, he couldn't help but stand up: "Princess......"
Princess Xia Bo blushed rarely, bowed her head slightly a little shyly, and said: "General Xiao, thanks to your wrong love, Xia Bo is very moved, but it's just ......" Speaking of this, she looked at Xiao Mingxia with very regretful eyes, "It's a pity that this princess already has a heart, and she can only live up to the general's good intentions." ”
After speaking, Princess Xia Bo said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, Xia Bo has already chosen, it is His Royal Highness King Yu." He turned around and faced Jun Qianyu with a smile, but his words were still said to the emperor, "Ask the emperor to fulfill it!" ”
"Wait a minute!" With a crisp shout, a petite figure walked out from behind Jun Qianyu, dressed as a little girl, looking like a handsome little boy, but the voice was too delicate, everyone looked at each other, what was going on?
Princess Xia Bo recognized Ning Xi at a glance: "Hey, isn't this the girl Ning who cooked for me that day?" I don't know what happened to Miss Ning appearing in disguise on this hall? Did you know that it is a great sin to deceive a king? She knew that Ning Xi's appearance was to sabotage her good deeds, and she didn't speak politely at all.
Ning Xi smiled and said: "Don't worry about the princess, the people's daughter can appear here today, naturally with the emperor's approval." ”
"So what the hell are you here for? I sue you, if you come to rob His Royal Highness King Yu from me, then you should die of this heart as soon as possible! ”
"The princess's words are wrong, the princess is a golden branch and jade leaf, so there can be so many good men waiting in line for the princess to choose, but His Royal Highness King Yu is also the noble prince of our Great Zhou, don't you even have the right to choose? Since the princess can choose a son-in-law in the Golden Palace, why can't His Royal Highness King Yu choose a wife in the Golden Palace? ”
There was a whisper in the hall, it seemed that everyone felt that she had a little truth in what she said, there is no reason why the prince of our Great Zhou is not as good as you are the princess of a small Dayue Kingdom!
Princess Xia Bo sneered: "Could it be that you also want to compete with me in talent? ”
"After all, the princess is a guest from afar, why does the folk girl want the princess to show her talents? Besides, the folk girl has been poor since she was a child, except for her first-hand cooking skills, she doesn't understand anything else, let alone show it, so today, the folk girl wants to make a bet with the princess, let the princess propose a dish, and the folk girl will make it in public on the spot, if the folk girl can't do it, or the princess is not satisfied with the dish, then the folk girl doesn't say a word, and leaves immediately, but if the folk girl is lucky enough to make a dish that satisfies the princess, then the princess must give up King Yu, how? ”
"This ......" Princess Xia Bo looked up at the emperor, and saw that the emperor was actually interested, and even said: "Could it be that the princess doesn't dare to accept the appointment?" ”
Princess Xia Bo immediately said: "Hehe, joke, how can you not dare?" She almost didn't have to think about it to know that she had no possibility of losing this bet, not to mention whether Ning Xi could make the dishes she wanted, just say that she was not satisfied, it was not her words? Even if it is a delicious thing, as long as she insists that she is not satisfied, she will win and not lose!
Ning Xi immediately said: "Then it's a word!" Princess, please say, what do you want the folk girl to cook? ”
Princess Xia Bo thought for a while, thinking of the "braised silver carp head" made by Rong Daquan just now, and when she ate it in her mouth, it was so amazing, she couldn't imagine that there would be a better fish in this world than the dish just now, so she said: "I want to eat the freshest fish in the world." ”
Ning Xi was a little surprised: "It's just the freshest fish?" She thought that the other party would have some big problems!
Princess Xia Bo nodded: "That's right! "What I thought in my heart was, no matter how delicious you are, I just have to find a reason to say that it's not fresh enough, I can't even think of this, it seems that this surnamed Ning is also a stupid person!
But seeing that Ning Xi glanced at the temporary stove with confidence, and found that the seasonings needed were complete, so he said: "No problem, please also ask the emperor and everyone here to be a witness for the people's daughter, and see if the people's daughter can make the freshest fish in the world for Her Royal Highness Princess Dayue." ”
