Just like Yong Wangyi said, what's so nice about peeling the skin and removing the bones? But it's not nice to dice a pumpkin.? Of course, Shu Jin wouldn't do what the master thought.

The pumpkin prepared by the palace people is very large, and even the surface of the pumpkin is clean, which is just right for use. Shu Jin first looked at the shape of the pumpkin, chose a place and took a knife to try the feel, feeling that there was no problem with the knife in his hand, Shu Jin's action continued.

A pumpkin was cut in several places, and the melon pulp and seeds in the pumpkin's heart were skillfully removed, and then Shu Jin washed his hands and the knife in his hand, wiped the surface of the pumpkin, and then began to carve it officially.

At first, people didn't see anything special, they only saw Shu Jin cutting and fiddling, but slowly the pumpkin in her hand changed shape. Golden leaves, golden scales, well-textured veins, layered fins......

When Shu Jin stopped the movement in his hand, what was placed on the board could no longer be seen to be the previous pumpkin, but the scene at the moment when two golden carp jumped out of the water. The open fins, the shining scales, and the rolling droplets on the leaves seem to freeze time at the moment when the fish jumps out of the water.

Ignoring everyone's exclamations, Shu Jin didn't stop as long as he moved. Soon, another pumpkin also changed in her hand.

The golden phoenix with wings ready to fly, the feathers on its body are layered on top of each other, and on the long tail feathers, the golden feathers seem to be still swinging with the wind.

"This ...... That's really ...... Miraculous. ”

"It's like it's coming to life!"

People sighed, and saw that Shu Jin had already gone to deal with those radishes again.

The skin is green. The beautiful radish in the heart is just turned into one blooming peony flower after another by Shu Jin in an instant, under the layers of petals. There are also tender green leaves; A few white radishes turn into several cranes of different shapes, lying or standing, or combing their feathers, or spreading their wings to fly.

When people really couldn't think of any words to express their amazement, Shu Jin had already come to the plate of tofu.

If it is said that the envoy of Qianguo just now is still unconvinced. At this point, he had long since lost his temper. He was already able to deeply understand why King Yong emphasized that there was nothing to look at when the skin and bones were peeled off.

The master of Qianguo was also speechless, he just stared at Shu Jin's works like that. Instantly, I felt that I had learned all the skills of decades in vain.

Seeing that Shu Jin had already carved pumpkins and radishes, and actually picked up the tofu at this moment, the master was extremely shocked in his heart. Tofu is such a thing. It will shatter with a little force. Can it be used for carving?

Shu Jin used practical actions to tell him that there was nothing to do.

I saw her hand holding a piece of tofu sink into the basin, and the other hand began to carve, and by the time the tofu surfaced again, Shu Jin had already given them different shapes: pavilions, temples, corridors, rockeries...... Pieces of tofu changed in Shu Jin's hands.

When Shu Jin put all the carved tofu together, people were surprised to find that this was actually a palace!

With several large halls in the middle as the axis. There are small palaces on both sides, with gardens in between. rockeries, cloisters, lakes.

"This isn't the palace, where is this?"

Someone couldn't help but ask. Unexpectedly, Shu Jin actually answered him:

"This is the city of my imagination, the Forbidden City."

After Shu Jin finished speaking, he looked at the last piece of tofu left, casually called a palace maid over, and blindfolded her with a ribbon. Then, in the eyes of the people's astonishment, they picked up the piece of tofu and carved it.

People watched and found that the lord of Xiangtang County did not reduce the difficulty of carving because he couldn't see it, and a piece of palm-wide tofu gradually turned into a delicate carriage, with ornaments on the body, rolling wheels, horses running in front of the carriage, and the coachman waving the whip still faintly visible!

After completing this final carving, Shu Jin untied the strap that bound his eyes and gently put the carriage at the door of the "Forbidden City".

"Good!" This time there was no need to be praised by others, Qi Yan shouted first, "Qianguo envoy? This time, you should be convinced, right? After speaking, Qi Yan laughed.

The envoy of the Qianguo Kingdom looked up at the emperor, then at the rows of exquisite carvings in front of Shu Jin, and finally nodded, and said sincerely:

"The county lord's skills are amazing, and they are really not comparable to us, and we are willing to bow to the advantage. This is the number one name in the world, and we don't deserve it. ”

The envoy of Qianguo admitted defeat, and everyone in the big performance once again struck the table and praised. Qi Yan was very happy, turned his head and said to King Yong:

"Uncle Huang, Uncle Huang, you told me that the chef of Xiangtang County is outstanding, and I still exaggerated it! I can't believe you still have reservations! Uncle Huang doesn't tell the truth, is he afraid that I will rob you of your deliciousness! ”

When King Yong heard this, he also laughed and said:

"Yes, if you find out, you can't say that the brocade girl will be rushed into the imperial dining room, then I want to eat good things, and I have to enter the palace, how troublesome! Hey, let's say it, Jin girl lives in my house, and no one wants to rob me of people! ”

King Yong said half-truthfully, Qi Yan laughed when he heard it and said:

"Yes, yes, yes! Don't rob you, don't rob you! I don't dare to rob it, and others don't dare to rob it! ”

King Yong said:

"If the emperor likes it, I can occasionally bring a brocade girl to cook something delicious for you. But if the girl is not happy, no one is allowed to force her to cook for others! ”

When Shu Jin heard this, he glanced at King Yong. The heart said that grandpa just loved her. This is for fear of revealing her skills and causing trouble, so she will pave the way first!

Sure enough, Qi Yan was in a good mood, and immediately agreed:

"Good! Passing on my will, the chef of Xiangtang County is outstanding, and he is specially allowed to use fine iron to make a set of knives, which are cast by the inner house. In the future, no one in the palaces and mansions shall coerce or coerce the county lord to cook for him, and if there is any violation, he will be punished according to the decree of resistance! ”

When Shu Jin heard this, he hurriedly thanked him.

"Lord Xiangtang, I saw that you didn't have any knives in your hand, so I gave you a good set. Tomorrow you will go to the Inner Mansion and explain your requirements to the craftsmen, so that they can build it as soon as possible. You just said that cooking should be idealistic, this sentence is very good, I have allowed you to engrave this sentence on your knife, which can be regarded as a testimony to my will today. If someone asks you to cook in the future, if you don't want to go, you can refuse! ”

"Thank you for the emperor's grace!" Shu Jin listened and thanked him again.

With the emperor's words, I'm afraid that no one dares to force himself to cook for him, even if he is salivating.

After Qi Yan finished speaking, he was still groaning in his heart.

Today, Shu Jin has won a lot of glory for the big performance, but he just rewarded her with a set of knives, which seems to be a little lighter, but what is the best way to reward her again?

Just as I was thinking about it, someone suddenly came out of the ranks.

"Your Majesty, the minister has a matter to do."

"Oh? Bao Aiqing, what's the matter? Qi Yan saw that it was Bao Sinian, the secretary of the Guozijian Division, who stood up.

"Your Majesty, do you remember that you wanted to add a 'cooking' class in Guozijian before, but you have been suffering from doctors who don't have enough qualifications?" (To be continued......)
