Chapter 284: The Charm of Hot Pot
As the hussar general of the Tang Dynasty and the top figure of the military general team, Xu Que said that he had never seen any big scenes in his life? He has eaten the emperor's royal banquet, eaten the imperial banquet of the emperor of the enemy country, and even eaten meat and drank wine in a big bowl without frowning on the battlefield with millions of corpses and bloody pestles. But today he said that he was cowardly, and he really didn't dare to eat this meal.
He has eaten the emperor's banquet, although he has not eaten the banquet of the prince, but he has eaten the prince's banquet, and it is not a big deal, but ...... The emperor set up a banquet, the prince was in charge of the kitchen, and everyone was still sitting at the same table to eat the imperial banquet, he really didn't have the courage to eat.
Sitting on the stool, the whole person was tense and straight, Xu Que stiffly turned his head to look at Tang Yu sitting beside him, the distance between the two was so close that he could clearly hear the emperor's breathing, Xu Que swore that this was the closest he had ever been to the emperor in his life.
"Huh? What happened to Xu Aiqing? Where is it uncomfortable? Tang Yu looked around, and his eyes fell on Xu Que, who was closest to him.
"I didn't ...... No! Your Majesty! Weichen is in excellent health, and he can go into battle for the emperor at any time to kill the enemy! "If there is something that a military general is most afraid of, it must be that others say that he is not in good health, if it is an ordinary person who says so, at least he will be beaten, but if it is the emperor who says this, then the matter is a big deal, if the emperor thinks that a military general is not in good health...... Then this general is basically the end.
Tang Yu was slightly stunned, looking at Xu Que who was kneeling on the ground in front of him, he couldn't help but feel a touch of embarrassment on his face, he forgot about this stubble for a while. "Xu Aiqing, hurry up, I don't question Aiqing's ability, I just see that your body is tense and your face is pale, and I mistakenly think that you are sick, so sit down there if you have nothing to do."
"Yes!" Xu Que replied in a loud voice, and then resumed his tense sitting posture again. Tang Yu could only smile helplessly when he saw this, and didn't say anything, anyway, it wouldn't be useful to say Xu Que.
"Come, come, come! The last course, the last course. At this moment, Tang Jin's voice came from outside the house, which eased the strange atmosphere in the house a lot.
I saw that he was followed by two little eunuchs transferred from the palace, and the two of them worked together to carry a large mouthful, and the pot was full of boiling spicy liquid. That's right, this is the master of Tang Jin's banquet
Dish, hot pot!
Although he had thought about making that kind of ordinary banquet before, if this was the case, he might have to cook each dish a dozen times, after all, there was one table per person, and it was impossible to sit together. So in order to save trouble, but also for convenience, Tang Jin decisively chose hot pot, which is both delicious and convenient.
Of course, this hot pot is not an ordinary hot pot, the base material in it is Tang Jin's taste developed by himself when he was bored in his previous life, and the soup base used in it is a broth made by Tang Jin himself, using a lot of precious ingredients, just such a pot base, converted into RMB, at least tens of thousands of costs.
Boom!
The bottom of the pot is seated and the stove is lit.
After a while, the bottom of the whole pot boiled, and there was a mouth-watering spicy aroma. Where have the generals who are used to eating coarse tea and light rice on weekdays smelled such fragrant things? One by one, he kept swallowing his saliva, and even Tang Yu, who was used to eating the world's delicacies, swallowed his saliva secretly. However, even so, no one moved their chopsticks, and everyone looked at Tang Jin with doubtful eyes.
They were curious, this ...... What to eat? This soup base is fragrant, but it's so spicy that you can't drink it directly? But don't drink soup...... Eat chili peppers? Too heavy, right?
"Huh?" Tang Jin glanced at everyone suspiciously, and then shook his head helplessly, he forgot that these guys had never eaten hot pot. Immediately picked up a plate of cut meat slices, poured them into the pot, and then put in some vegetables, "Your Majesty, generals, this thing is called hot pot, and it is a famous dish in the fairyland." All you need to do is pour the meat, vegetables and vegetables you are visiting into the pot, cook them and dip them in the condiments and serve. ”
After that, Tang Jin just wanted to sit down, but suddenly found that the atmosphere was not right, and when he looked up, he saw the generals looking at him with a bitter face, and there was a little blame in his expression.
"What am I doing?" For a moment, Tang Jin mistakenly thought that he had done something to this group of strong men who were five big and three thick.
"Ahem, ladies and gentlemen, this hot pot is a meal in fairyland. Jin'er once said to me that there are no kings and ministers in the fairyland, but everyone is equal, and everyone can also sit and eat with the court officials, and they want to come to this dish
That's why it was born. I am using Jin'er's dinner to entertain you today, you don't have to be rigid about etiquette, eat and drink openly, don't think of me as an emperor, after all, I also went to the battlefield back then, in a sense, I am a comrade-in-arms with you Aiqing, and today can be regarded as a reunion of my comrades-in-arms. ”
As he spoke, Tang Yu took the lead in picking up the chopsticks, scooped out a piece of meat that Tang Jin put in the pot, put it in his mouth without hesitation, and then ...... Scald!
"Whew!" Although the meat slices were hot, the spicy taste made Tang Yu reluctant to spit it out, and he exhaled in his mouth for a long time without any image, and then swallowed it. "It's delicious, this taste is really a must, it deserves to be a fairyland! Everyone, Aiqing, move the chopsticks quickly, whoever doesn't eat it can be regarded as resisting the decree. ”
As soon as I heard this, where were the generals still calm, anyway, the emperor said that there was no need to stick to the number of etiquette, so were you afraid of a ball?
Immediately, a group of generals who had long been impatient moved their chopsticks one after another, and then a group of people completely forgot about the number of etiquette, and did not care about the image of the scramble, even Tang Yu also joined the scrambling army, it's no wonder they didn't know it, this thing is really delicious. If you can eat one more bite, it's worth dying tomorrow!
As a result, the originally tense atmosphere completely disappeared under Tang Jin's hot pot offensive. At the same time, the generals also let Tang Jin see what it means to be really edible, because there are many people, so he specially slaughtered two cows, two sheep, and more than ten catties of vegetables and vegetables. At the end of the meal, there is still a lot of vegetables left, and this meat ...... I added another cow, a sheep, and a pig to barely enough to eat.
"Is this a human stomach?" The generals can eat Tang Jin knows, but he didn't say that he can eat it so much! More than a dozen people ate thousands of catties of beef and mutton before and after, is this what people do? Well, in addition to being military generals, they are also top martial artists, and their daily consumption is large, and they really let go of eating on weekdays, and they are all able to swallow half a pig by themselves, and there seems to be nothing abnormal about this scale today. You don't see, Tang Yu has eaten nearly 100 catties of beef and mutton, as well as almost half of the vegetables.
"Have you eaten the generals?" For a long time, looking at the people in front of him who were half-lying on the chair without any image, Tang Jin smiled. Everyone nodded instinctively, "In that case, let's get down to business, shall we?" ”
