Chapter 132: Bai Dusk singled out Yang Gongzi
Since the emperor had already frightened the order, everyone naturally didn't dare to say anything. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Yang Gongzi of the Ning Xiang Restaurant snorted coldly, and seemed to be extremely disdainful of Bai Dui.
This also can't blame him, this Yang Gongzi, the world has long forgotten his name, in the Jingzhou culinary industry, he has been famous for one or two decades, and now he is just past the year of his establishment. It is rumored that Yang Gongzi was only ten years old at the time, his father died suddenly, his mother was missing, and there were no other brothers and sisters in the family. But after all, he was young, he was framed, and the chefs in the restaurant left one after another. The little Yang Gongzi was extremely unconvinced, so he cooked by himself, never thinking that he would show amazing talent, and in just a few years, he brought Ningxiang Restaurant back to life and gained a firm foothold in Jingzhou. It can be said that he can turn things around by himself, and he can be regarded as a rare talent.
With this reason, he could naturally disdain Bai Dui, and besides, Fengguanlou's branch in Jingzhou was not open, and Fengguanlou's influence in Jingzhou was limited after all. It is also understandable not to be taken in the eyes of Yang Gongzi. Sun Yao originally regarded him as a very important opponent, but he didn't expect that today's situation would appear, it is really not as good as the sky, Bai Du has encountered a great challenge, whether he can win or not, it is really hard to say.
"Your Majesty, it's better to ask Bai Du and Yang Gongzi to cook the same dish, so that it is easier to distinguish between the superior and the inferior." The prince said, and glanced at Sun Yao lightly.
Sun Yao also understood what he meant, and it was nothing more than asking her to find a way to pick a dish that Bai Dui was good at, so as to eliminate Yang Gongzi.
Sun Yao was weak-hearted, and glanced at Yang Gongzi lightly, he seemed to be confident and didn't care at all. Twilight was also indifferent, as if they were all right, as if none of this had anything to do with them. And Yang Gongzi's smile when he looked at Bai Du was also meaningful.
"Feng Taishou, what do you think?" The emperor smiled faintly and took a bite of watermelon.
"Your Majesty, Weichen thinks it's very good, so the comparability is very high, as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said, which is higher and which is lower, you can know it when you taste it."
"In that case, let's do it. This questioner, it is better to come from Changtian, he is not familiar with you, and he will be impartial. Changtian, you can come up with a question. ”
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Changtian glanced at Sun Yao lightly and pondered for a moment.
"Your Majesty, in the past, Weichen ate a soup at the Queen Mother's place, called Siwei Soup, and now he is still nostalgic. I heard the Queen Mother say that this soup can only be made by an old imperial chef in the palace, and now that imperial chef has passed away, I am afraid that I will not be able to taste it in the future. Why don't you take this four-flavor soup as the theme, what do you think, Your Majesty? Changtian said with a smile.
"I have also heard of this four-flavor soup, but I have never tasted it, Princess Ling loved this soup very much, and said that it was for her birthday, so I let me taste it together, but unfortunately I did not wait for her birthday." The emperor said indifferently, as soon as these words came out, Changtian was already kneeling, and when everyone saw this, they knew that the emperor remembered Princess Ling again, and a careless crime was the crime of killing the head, and they were all kneeling on the ground at the moment, not daring to say a word.
After a while, Fang heard the emperor's faint sigh.
"Get up, and I'll take these four flavors of soup as the theme today."
After the emperor finished speaking, he took a deep look at Sun Yao, which made her puzzled, but she didn't know what to say.
"Father, since the topic of the four-flavor soup is already on the topic, you should also tell the ingredients of the four-flavor soup, after all, there are very few people who know about this soup." The prince said, but he was also bold.
"What the prince said is very true, Changtian, do you remember the main ingredient of this four-flavor soup?"
"The minister heard the queen mother say that this four-flavor soup is based on tomatoes, winter vegetables, bitter gourd, and green peppers, supplemented by eggs and beef.
"Get up, in that case, the other ingredients will be free for the two of you." The emperor said lightly, his face was calm, but there was a coldness.
"Your Majesty, the minister has something to say." Twilight knelt down and said neither humbly nor arrogantly.
"You have something to say, but it doesn't hurt to say it." The emperor is still cold.
"Could you please describe the taste of this four-flavor soup by the Imperial Guard?"
"Changtian, do you remember?"
"The taste of this soup is very special, as if life is all in it, if you want to describe it, but you can't."
The emperor nodded, and Bai Dusk knelt down.
The maid quickly prepared tomatoes, winter vegetables, bitter gourd, green peppers, eggs, beef, and other ingredients, and the rest was made by Bai Du and Yang Gongzi themselves, and someone went to get them.
Sun Yao looked at Bai Du intently, only to see him think for a while, then wrote a few words and handed them to the maid, with a confident face, Sun Yao was very happy. Suddenly, I felt as if someone was looking at it, and I turned my head, but it was the prince's burning gaze, which touched her gaze and immediately became cold, faster than the change of face in Sichuan Opera.
The two cooks went to prepare, because of the small number of people, they could see at a glance on the high platform, and everyone stood still, quietly looking at the two people in the audience. Because of the influence of the emperor's mood, everyone did not dare to say much, and even the audience on the periphery was quiet and abnormal, but it was also a strange scene.
In less than half an hour, the two of them were finished, and the four-flavor soup was served together.
"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother also said that this four-flavor soup can be completed in almost an hour, and now it seems that this is really the case."
The emperor nodded.
"In that case, why don't you go and taste it first."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Changtian stepped off the stage and slowly came to the side of the four-flavor soup, Sun Yao felt as if he could fall down at any time. But a bowl of soup seemed to mean a lot to him.
Bai Du and Yang Gongzi each put a bowl on the table, Changtian nodded, and tasted them one by one.
He moved slowly, as if savoring, and Sun Yao carefully observed his every move, intending to find out the difference in order to judge whose soup was more successful. But she was disappointed, Changtian deserved to be the emperor's personal guard, his face was as usual, as if there had been no change, as for what his heart was, it was unknown.
"Changtian, how does it taste? Do you feel like back then? ”
"Your Majesty, let's wait for the judges to make a judgment, and then the minister will talk to you in detail."
"It's because I didn't think it through, Feng Taishou, you guys should try it too."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
The eleven judges tasted them one by one, and Sun Yao carefully observed each of them and found that their expressions were wonderful, sometimes surprised, sometimes worried, sometimes happy, sometimes shocked, all kinds of expressions, and so on. Probably because there were too many expressions, Sun Yao couldn't tell the difference, and there was no way to know whose four-flavor soup they preferred.
After the eleven people tasted it, they all stood there, waiting for the emperor to speak.
"Now that you've tasted it, it's time to make a judgment in your heart, and if you think it's good, stand behind it." The crown prince glanced at the emperor and said.
All of a sudden, all the eleven judges stood behind Bai Dui, which startled Sun Yao and finally reassured him.
"Hahaha, that's neatly tight. Long heaven, tell me your judgment. "Now that Bai Dusk has become the eighth place, today's competition is over, and the emperor is naturally most concerned about these four flavor soups, which one is more like the taste of the year.
"Back to the emperor, Yang Gongzi's four-flavor soup is closer to the taste that the ministers tasted back then."
When everyone heard this, they were all surprised, and the eleven judges were even more frightened, this is bad, if it angers the emperor, wouldn't it cost people's lives.
Sun Yao was also blindsided at the moment, and even the prince looked wonderful, and it took a long time to calm down.
"Hahaha, it's really interesting, but since Bai Dusk has won, then that's the end of today's game, Ying Guiren, help me go back to rest."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Everyone dispersed, only the prince walked in front of Yang Gongzi, whispered a few words, and Yang Gongzi also went with him.
Sun Yao glanced at them, and understood in her heart that the emperor was bound to taste the four-flavor soup, and Princess Ling was really a piece of the emperor's heart, which was difficult to treat.
