There were hundreds of guards, chamberlains, and miscellaneous servants in the palace, plus nearly a thousand children in the old camp. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info Today's Chinese New Year's Eve Zhao Yu ordered all the guards and miscellaneous servants on duty to be seated, so that there would be as many as 100 tables. The palace simply didn't have that big hall to accommodate so many people. Fortunately, there was no winter in Qiongzhou, so he ordered the banquet to be placed in the open space between the inner and outer houses, and even so, the corridors and the tables were set up on the steps to barely ensure that everyone had a place.

The worship was due, the sacrifice was due, and the people began to take their seats. Pastries and candied fruits have been placed on the table, don't look at the fact that they are all made in his own kitchen, Zhao Yu only knows a few things such as spring rolls, fried cakes and honey cakes that are often eaten, and the others are all raw. I think it's because I eat simply on weekdays, but these chefs can't show their skills, and today they all took out the effort to press the bottom of the box. Before they eat, just looking and smelling makes people swallow, and the children can't wait to reach out and grab it.

But these are just the dishes and snacks before the feast, and the serious dishes have not yet been served. The gong had already started on the stage in front of him, and Wang De and the stewards in the palace thought that His Royal Highness was young, and they had never dared to be interested in those singing and dancing silk music, and they would not be allowed to perform unless they could not hide from the occasion. Therefore, it is a juggling, magic, monkey, and laughing acrobatic artist, which is beautiful and lively, and it also suits the taste of these subordinates and children in the house......

"Ladies and gentlemen, this king left home at a young age, all with the support and care of Mr. and you, and he is already like a family. With the wine of this year's resignation, this king has thanked him. "Zhao Yu, as the lord of a mansion, naturally has to say a few words before the banquet, this is not difficult for him, he will still say two words during the New Year, but today he said it quite emotionally." Many people in the house accompanied the king on the sea at this time last year, hungry and at a loss. At that time, the king thought that next year he would let everyone have a good year. Heaven bless, let this king's wish come true this year, please drink to your heart's content! ”

"Your Highness!" Everyone stood up and saluted in unison.

After Zhao Yu finished his speech, Wang De waved his hand, and the small yellow doors of the Shangshan supervisor were lined up, directing the miscellaneous servants to start serving. I saw the servants holding trays in their hands, walking through everywhere like clouds and waters, which place to go first, and then to which one was not chaotic at all, and the dishes were not bad, and the first wave was completed in a few moments, which made people dazzled.

"Sir, this king can sit here today, thanks to the assistance of Mr. Due to the large number of people, it is not possible to divide the meal, but only to use the form of a pot. And the only one who can sit with Zhao Yu is Ying Jieyan, he picked up the cup and said.

"Your Highness!" Ying Jie Yan raised his glass and the two drank a cup together, "Speaking of which, the old man is embarrassed and has failed to fulfill his responsibilities as a teacher!" ”

"Mr. is bad, this king is young and ignorant, if there is no Mr. who often teaches and assists, and runs around, where can the Shuai Mansion have today's situation." Zhao Yu knew that Ying Jieyan felt guilty about the matter of welcoming the car, and waved his hand.

"The old man can be trusted by His Royal Highness, so that I can show my ambition to serve the country in my chest, how can I talk about hard work!" Ying Jieyan smiled.

"Master **** has worked tirelessly to teach this king to practice martial arts, this king has thanked him, please drink a cup of vegetarian wine!" Zhao Yu said to Yuan Miao, who was sitting at the first table under him. Of course, it is a monk to abide by the precepts, can not eat meat and drink, but the Song Dynasty Buddhism prevailed, there are many Buddhists, so vegetarian food has become an indispensable food in the society, and it is not difficult for the cooks in the house to get a table of vegetarian dishes.

"Amitabha, Your Highness is serious, although Lao Gao is not in the red dust, he is still a descendant of Taizu. You can't go into battle to kill the enemy, and you can only use some rough kung fu with your Highness, and I just hope that Your Highness can revive your ancestors. Yuan Miao said and drank the wine.

"This time the king can return home smoothly, thanks to the master's help." Zhao Yu poured vegetarian wine for Yuan Miao and thanked him.

"That night of small power, holding the Queen Mother and Her Majesty hostage, and trying to disadvantage His Highness. If it weren't for the Buddha's virtue of a good life, the old man would have stabbed the traitor and removed the scourge for the court. Yuan Miao said with a cold snort.

"Hehe, the master is not worthy of dirty hands for that guy, the cycle of heavenly principles, he will be punished." Zhao Hao smiled and said with a smile, feeling that his decision to keep him in the mansion was correct, and at the critical moment, he was not afraid of danger and crossed the sea to Leizhou overnight to deliver a letter, so that the reinforcements arrived in time. teased Chen Yizhong again and scared him out, otherwise he wouldn't have gone away to occupy the city so happily.

Next, Zhao Yu congratulated the guards and chamberlains on the New Year, and when he was about to say a few more words, he found that people's speeches were far less attractive than the food on the table, so he quickly ended his long-winded thoughts and told Wang De to serve the food quickly, otherwise there would be plates and saucers left on the table. And his harath is almost flowing to his chest, after all, he advocates frugality, not good at eating and drinking, most of the dishes on this table have never been seen by himself, let alone eaten, but the gluttony has always been there.

"Your Highness, this is crispy fried chicken mushroom!"

"This is a roasted **** roasted chicken and red chicken!"

"Frozen clams, scorpion, white fish jelly!"

"Ding Steamed Sheep!"

"Sheep four soft!"

"Wine steamed sheep!"

"Steamed goose with bamboo shoots!"

"Deep-fried spring fish!"

"Fish maw soup!"

"Vinegar hand-washing crab five-flavor wine sauce crab!"

"Fried belly cockles, five spicy sauce cockles!"

"Three-color reunion pink!" ……

Wang De served His Royal Highness the dishes while reporting the name of the dishes. And Zhao Yu's mouth was stuffed with food, only nodding his head, he found that China deserved to be a big country in terms of food, at this time there was no chicken essence, monosodium glutamate, sugar, chili peppers and all kinds of condiments, the method was also steaming, supplemented by frying, and there were few stir-fried dishes, but the things made were very delicious. It's not because he's been hungry for too long, it's really a heartfelt evaluation, it's just that they don't seem to be good at cooking seafood.

When everyone had eaten almost, everyone began to toast to His Royal Highness, Zhao Yu was young and could only replace wine with tea, but under the bombardment of such a person, the stomach that was already eating was not even a little cracked, and I couldn't wait to eat two morphine tablets quickly, even if it was a few stomach and digestion tablets! But it's hard to be warm, especially these little people who are usually at the bottom rarely muster up the courage to toast to their high selves, he can only drink one cup after another with a wry smile!

After eating the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, the New Year's bell rings in the wonderful performance on stage, which is a real bell ringing, not an electronic synthesis of lip-synching. Then everyone accompanied His Highness to keep the New Year until the first rays of dawn were ushered in...... (To be continued.) )
