Chapter 18: Otherworldly Cuisine
In the imperial dining room, Li Zhenxiang was ordered to make dishes, but she was looking at a group of imperial court masters who were self-absorbed in the elbow and yellow croaker they made, and they couldn't extricate themselves.
"Khan is really right this day, it's really an elbow with yellow croaker, and even the habit of eating in the imperial dining room, he has mastered it so accurately."
The girl led the emperor's order to let the crowd dodge, and she called two cooks to do it, that is, to tie an apron to show the dark and profound cuisine of this other world.
"Eggs, sugar, and, you make me a simple little oven!"
"Little oven?"
"Oh yes, and make some clean little candles with this girl."
"Wax ...... Candle? ”
……
In front of Tian Khan, Li Zhenxiang's shadow appeared.
"You...... What are you doing with this box? ”
At dinnertime, Li Zhenxiang held a square brocade box, knelt on the table of the Heavenly Khan, and presented the brocade box on his head.
"Dinner please, Khan of the Heavens!"
A brocade box was served on Khan's table.
"What is this?"
"It's a wishing cake!"
"Wishing cake?"
"Yes, wishing cake, eating the wishing cake made by this girl, your dream will come true!"
Tianhe Khan smiled, opened the brocade box, and a ray of white light burst out.
"This?"
A soft cake the size of a watermelon appeared in front of Tian Khan's eyes.
This cake is flat, but it is covered in white, snow-white and shiny.
On top of the pastry, the colorful fragrant fruit is inlaid with snow-like soft oil, and the whole fragrant cake is innocent and flawless, and the fairy spirit is fluttering.
"This, this white pastry, Ben Khan has never seen it!"
"It's just this effect, it's not unusual to see it, this wishing cake is also known as snowflake cream, take a bite, sweet and crispy forever."
In this way, Tian Khan really couldn't help the smell of this fragrant soyset, so he took a small spoon and prepared to scoop a piece to taste how it tasted.
"Eh, slow down, Khan, haven't made a wish yet?"
"Make a wish?"
"Yes!"
Next to the brocade box, Zhenxiang picked up five candles and inserted them directly into the wishing cake.
"Eh, what are you doing with candles on this pastry, why are you eating this?"
"This is the wishing lamp, after plugging it in, you can return the wish, come, Tianhan tried it, but it worked!"
Five candles were inserted, four of them slightly larger and one of them smaller, embedded in the pastry.
"A big candle means ten years old, a small candle means five years old, and five plugged in exactly forty and five, representing the khan's age this year, as long as the fire is burned, it is a wish, and when the fire is blown out, it is a wish."
With that, Zhenxiang blew out the oil lamp in the house, and the entire Khan's bedroom was dark.
A flint was lit, a few birthday candles were lit, and the oil lamps were dim, illuminating the fragrance and khan on the yellow case.
"Zhenxiang, the fragrant cake you made is so beautiful, Khan has never seen it in his life, what secrets do you still hide, girl?"
Zhenxiang smiled, and hurriedly called Tian Khan to close his eyes and make a wish, but he must not say his wish, and then blow out the candle, he can get his wish and make his dream come true.
Tian Khan looked at it from the side, but he was a little restrained, Zhenxiang immediately knelt down and kowtowed: "The little girl made a wish, I wish the people of the Northern Han border to return to peace, the people are rich and healthy, I wish the rivers and mountains of the Northern Han will be forever solid, and the Tian Khan will always remain in history!" ”
Zhenxiang is like smearing honey on her mouth, so that the heavenly khan admires such a good woman who can write and dance, and can make ice cream.
Tian Khan sat down, closed his eyes and made a wish, then blew out the candles, and silence returned to the chamber.
The oil lamp was lit again, Li Zhenxiang took out a small knife, cut the flower cake, presented it to Khan in a piece, and inserted a spoonful to let Tian Khan taste it himself.
"There is no oven in this palace, and the slaves and maids are wrapped in cooked paper and baked, some places are raw, and some places are still burnt, but the white oil outside this pastry is sweet, and the Khan will taste it."
A spoonful of snow-white pastry and fruits entered Tian Khan's mouth.
"It melts in the mouth, sweet and delicious, but it is not greasy, although it is a little baked, but it is really the best taste in the world.
Well, it's really sweet, well, in the future, you will often make this fragrant cake for Ben Khan to taste, but it is much better than those pedantic imperial chefs. ”
Zhenxiang thanked him, and he was ready to retreat and let the heavenly khan taste it.
"Come up and taste it with Ben Khan."
Khan personally cut a piece and called Zhenxiang to taste it together.
Zhenxiang is not polite, she hasn't eaten this birthday cake for a long time, and she just happened to taste her own craftsmanship.
Suddenly, one hand wrapped around Zhenxiang's waist and hugged Zhenxiang.
A violent earthquake shook the heavenly khan.
"Heavenly ...... Tian Khan, the slave is a subordinate, and he doesn't dare to climb high! ”
Li Zhenxiang suddenly realized that this day Khan has been gentle to himself since he made a couplet a few days ago, isn't it that this day Khan has feelings for himself?
The girl patted her head, the matter had come to this, and now she had to keep her distance from the khan as much as possible, so as not to cause another incident.
"Li Zhenxiang, my dignified Tianzun of the Northern Cold, have I wronged you?"
The girl kowtowed: "This is not a matter of grievance, yes!" ”
"Okay, Ben Khan knows, it's just that you are a girl, which reminds Ben Khan of a person, she also offered a good snack to Ben Khan when Ben Khan was sleeping, Ben Khan regarded you as her, but you are stronger than her, after all, it's not her, it's just that you get up and retreat!"
Seeing that the Khan was lonely again, Zhenxiang felt that the Khan was not a covetous woman, and remembered the turmoil in the frontier, so he asked for his life and wanted to tell a story to the Khan.
"Storytelling?"
"Yes, Khan, that's an interesting story called Genghis Khan......"
……
After telling a heart-wrenching story, Tian Khan smiled and glanced at Zhenxiang: "You are telling Ben Khan to let go of his worries, learn from this Genghis Khan, raise troops to attack the Tubahu who invaded my homeland, and take advantage of the situation to dominate the entire desert." ”
Zhenxiang kowtowed again: "Tian Khan is wise, reunification is not the first priority, but if other countries bully our good people in the Northern Han, the Khan is afraid of the casualties and losses after the war, and avoids the war, it will increase the arrogance of the nomads in the northwest, not only will not submit to our dynasty, but will be more unscrupulous, seize the city, and directly attack the Yellow Capital of the Northern Cold."
This universal government, although the Son of Heaven is in charge, but it is inseparable from the support of the people, now the common people are in trouble, do the Khan ignore it, regardless of it, there will be a day when the people carry the hoe, conspire with the people of the world, and capture the heavenly capital.
Let's ask how the world is so big, the refugees are all against it, how can the 100,000 soldiers and horses of the royal family be able to defeat the tens of millions of people in the world?
Khan, for the sake of the peace of the world, the slave maid asked the heavenly khan to immediately send troops to eliminate the evil Anbang, unify the desert, and strengthen the northern cold Tianwei! ”
The girl knocked again, and the heavenly khan was stunned to look at the precious fragrance under the platform, and the breath of heavenly power that was permeated by the birth of the ring, seemed to be the self of the young family.
"You step down, sleep first, tomorrow morning, the palace will discuss again, let Ben Khan think about it, let Ben Khan think about it!"
Zhenxiang left, this flower cake is sweet, but it is not as turbulent as the northwest, and I don't know if the people in the border over there are the same as this Dongqi City and Linxue City, they have been humiliated and don't talk about this life.
Outside the main hall of Beihan, only a girl Qianqian was left pacing, looking at the blue stars in the sky, and slowly left.
