Chapter 1797: The Imperial Palace Banquet

When the Emperor slowly walked into the main hall from the apse, all the ministers in the hall bowed their heads and saluted, calling them "Your Majesty". This kind of title was not in the past, the emperor of the Wa Kingdom is a full sling silk compared to the emperor of the Central Plains Dynasty, and it is also "you, you, me, and me", but since Prince Shotoku began to study the Han people in an all-round way, the culture, skills, customs and other aspects of the Han people have been introduced to the Wa Kingdom with waves of overseas students and overseas monks, and several emperors have felt that the emperor of the Han people is still tall, and even the self-proclaimed "I" are so powerful and domineering, so I simply learned them all in one go......

During this period, the Wa Kingdom was willing to be the younger brother of the Tang Dynasty, and the of the Tang Dynasty was fragrant, culture, customs, clothing, systems, architecture, medical ...... But everything that Datang has and can be accessed by overseas monks, all of them are copied back.

And as long as it is something that comes back from the Tang Dynasty, it can immediately form a trend, from the royal family to the nobles to the commoners, competing to follow suit and be proud.

Anyone who speaks Chinese, writes Chinese characters, and performs Chinese etiquette can be superior and respected.

The formation of a unique national culture gradually distinguished itself from that of the Han people, and it was after Emperor Huangji gave way to Emperor Kotoku and the whole country implemented the "Dahua Reform". Therefore, in a historical sense, the "Taika Reform" laid the foundation for the national heritage of the Wakoku, which was on a par with the "Meiji Restoration" a thousand years later, which made the Wakoku a world power.

And the reason why Fang Jun plotted against the Wa State at this time was to cut off the historical process of the Wa State.

Even if some things still happen due to the inertia of history, if it can disrupt the imperial inheritance and social structure of the Japanese Kingdom, then what is destined to happen will be a hundred or two hundred years later......

Don't underestimate these two hundred years, once the river of history enters a fork in the road, who knows which direction it will eventually rush?

Emperor Huangji sat down on the imperial steps, dressed in noble and majestic clothes, and his beautiful appearance was cold and solemn, a little less charming and a little more dignified......

The envoys of the "Three Hans" came forward to meet the emperor.

The envoy of Goguryeo is the favored minister of the treasure king, and the envoy of Baekje is the prince of the king of Baekje, Buyeo Zhang, Buyeo Feng, in comparison, the envoy of Silla, Kim Famin, is certainly a son of the royal family, but his status is more than one grade lower, and the faces of the civil and military officials of the Japanese kingdom in the palace are not very good-looking, no matter what camp he stands in, Silla's obvious disregard for the emperor is unpleasant.

Jin Famin was indifferent, as if he couldn't see the dissatisfied looks of the Japanese officials at all, lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes, and after the audience, he stood on one side with his hands tied to the side and did not say a word.

Soga Ishikawa Maro stood up and read out the Emperor's decree......

It is nothing more than some condescending words, which not only express the praise for the submission and obedience of the "three Koreas", but also a faint threat between the lines.

In fact, the place of "Sanhan" is not much smaller than that of the Japanese country, and the population is even larger, but from ancient times to the present, whenever there is a war, in the face of the fierce and barbaric Japanese people, there has never been a time to take advantage, once to suffer a loss, and when you see the Japanese people later, you will call your father, even if there is a suzerainty to support it, you will not dare to be tough in front of the Japanese people......

The temple sang and danced.

When Soga Ishikawa Maro finished reading the edict, Emperor Gogoku waved his hand and ordered a banquet.

This is a reserved repertoire to show the importance of "Samhan", but today Emperor Gogoku has a cold face, obviously unhappy that Silla only sent one Kim Famin, and at this moment he is wondering whether to make a statement afterwards and warn Silla.

If you tie up with the Tang Dynasty, do you dare not to put the Japanese country in your eyes?

It's really hateful......

Kim Fa Min has nothing to fear.

Now that Queen Seondeok has formed an alliance with the Tang Dynasty, she naturally wants to show favor to the Tang Dynasty everywhere, even if the Wa Kingdom is dissatisfied because of this, what can they do? Jin Famin witnessed the strength of the Tang Dynasty Naval Division, which can be said to be undefeated in the Seven Seas, even if the Japanese Kingdom really intends to send troops to Silla to conquer, I am afraid that they may not dare to go to sea under the blockade of the Tang Dynasty Naval Division......

Although some foxes and tigers are shameful, Jin Famin doesn't care at all.

Silla is weak and surrounded by strong enemies, so it is inevitable to rely on the strong to survive.

Although Goguryeo and the Han people had deep and irreconcilable grievances, Baekje was not bent on uniting Goguryeo against the Tang Dynasty, just because they were too close to the Wa Kingdom and could not change their ways......

The imperial banquet elixir, but in Jin Famin's opinion, it is really a little shabby.

I can't help but think of the time when I came with Fang Jun, all kinds of seafood fried, fried, steamed and boiled every day on the warship, any of which was far better than the so-called imperial banquet at the table in front of me, which was like chewing wax......

But the visitor is a guest, so you have to give the Japanese a little face, right?

Jin Famin picked and chosen, picked a few seemingly good dishes at random, put them in his mouth and tasted them, the taste was average, and then picked up the wine poured by the maid standing on the side, and took a sip, the taste was not bad, but it was a grape brew from the Tang Dynasty......

As early as the Han Dynasty, the Wa Kingdom introduced chopsticks from Huaxia, and Huaxia called it "chopsticks", as for the three Hans, it is already unverifiable, it is really deeply entangled with the Chinese civilization for a long time, I am afraid that since the birth of this nation, there have been chopsticks.

Chopsticks can be called a kind of artwork, not only represents the long-standing Chinese culture, but also derives a lot of exquisiteness and rules, the rigid Japanese people are even more paranoid, it is said that the use of chopsticks taboos as many as 20 items......

As for the Europeans who drank blood in Rumao at this time, they only carried knives with them, and wherever they went, they lit a fire and roasted the meat and cut it to eat...... Forks only appeared after the 15th century, because the cooked meat was still hot after being cut with a knife, and it was inevitable that it would be hot to the hand.

That's right, these savages have been eating hot meat for more than a thousand years, and then finally discovering that this problem can be solved with forks, but in turn they want to laugh at chopsticks as inferior to knives and forks......

Dishes from all over the world have their own advantages and disadvantages, and simply evaluating who is better is actually a matter that is not rigorous. French cuisine is recognized as high-end, but where is it high-end? It's not that the taste is unique, but more because of the value of its raw materials. But when it comes to dishes made with the most ordinary ingredients, who can taste better than Chinese food?

Chinese never care what they eat, flying in the sky and swimming in the water, poisonous and non-toxic, raw, cooked, soft and hard, as long as it can be eaten, Chinese can eat, beggars can eat, the emperor still eats, we never care what we eat, only how to eat.

Foie gras truffle caviar is all on the menu, but who has heard the Chinese boast that only lobster and abalone can make the best dishes?

Of the one hundred and eight dishes of the "Manchu and Han Full Banquet", how many dishes are ranked among them by relying on the preciousness of food?

Using the most common ingredients, through different combinations and different cooking methods to get different tastes, but still get the true taste of food, this is not only a technical problem, but also a philosophical problem.

Foreigners don't understand......

Uh, that's a long way off.

Although the atmosphere at the banquet was a little solemn because of the cold face of Emperor Huangji, the ministers still said a few words to each other from time to time, and there was no cold scene.

Zhongchen Kamazu went out for a trip, and returned after a while, his position was not far from Su I into the deer, and he frequently raised his glass to Su I into the deer to persuade him to drink, Su I into the deer was quite deep and had a bold temperament, even though he knew that Zhongchen Kazuzu was the confidant of the prince of Katsuragi, and it was very likely that it was not good for him, but he still drank to the cup.

Jin Famin's appetite was not very good, and the food was not too palatable, so he ate absentmindedly and kept looking at the people at the banquet.

Then, inadvertently, I saw a somewhat strange scene......

The sea dog Yangsheng Maro held the wine glass in his hand, and kept glancing at the two people sitting opposite him, Saeki Zimaro and Katsuragi Inu Yoshida, but it was a pity that the two people opposite were just eating with their heads down, probably choking on eating too quickly, and they kept drinking water, and they could even see obvious sweat stains on their foreheads.

The sea dog Yang Sheng Maru kept making his eyes, his expression was very anxious, and his eyes were about to come out, but the two of them were still just bowing their heads, their faces were ugly, and they were in a cold sweat......

What's going on?

Kim Famin was confused.
