In the past few days, the most mentioned thing in the capital is the kitchen god competition that Luoxian Lou is going to host. The generous bonuses really attract a lot of people.

Yesterday, it was rumored that Kang Tong would serve as a judge in the competition in the past few days, and now Kang Tong is the chef of the imperial dining room in the palace, and what a future it is to win his favor, so many people are looking forward to it.

The first race of the day, the venue had just opened, and before the event had even started, people were seated in the stadium.

A gorgeous carriage stopped outside the arena, and Li Xun was picked up from the carriage by Lin Yuan. The fast catcher, who was maintaining order outside the arena, fell to his knees when the car stopped. I received news early this morning that Her Royal Highness the princess of Da Zhou will come to watch the game today.

When a team of guards walked into the venue, the people knew that it was the princess who came, and people were a little curious. Although the eldest princess of Da Zhou is only five years old, she is the only daughter of the current saint. Throughout the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty, although there are many royal heirs, but there are few princesses, when the eldest princess was born, the current saint has granted amnesty to the world, which is a rare treatment for the birth of the prince.

Timidly looking at the environment in front of him, Li Xun tried his best to restrain the tension in his heart, and whispered: "Get up." Seeing this, Yang Gonggong said loudly: "Flat!" Seeing everyone standing up in the arena, Li Xun carefully breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at Lin Yuan on the side, his little hand also tightened.

"It's okay, let's go." gently patted Li Xun's little head and pulled Li Xun towards the high platform.

Li Xiandao saw Lin Yuan and the others sitting down, breathed a sigh of relief, slowly walked to the middle of the field, took the special loudspeaker sent by Lin Yuan, and said loudly: "The people take food as the sky, and today I will gather Gyeonggi famous chefs in Luoxian Mansion to compete for the best." The first place will receive 500 taels of silver, the second place will be 200 taels of silver, and the first place will be 100 taels of silver. In addition, there is a set of Wang Ji boutique kitchenware. After saying that, he waved his hand, and a group of strong men in strong clothes walked into the middle of the field with wooden plates in their hands and placed the trays on the three small tables in the field.

The red cloth is lifted, and a silver ingot is particularly attractive in the sunlight. The audience in the audience fell silent, it was not that the silver had never been seen, but no one had ever seen so much silver put together.

Yang Gonggong glanced at Lin Yuan, who was drinking tea, and thought to himself, Yasukuni's means of grasping people's hearts are really endless, although it is one or two silver and one ingot, but it is better than a large number, and at first glance it is still a lot of temptation.

"In order to make the competition fair, this competition uses the kitchenware produced by Wang Kee. Half an hour of play. Zhang Gu, Marquis of Huaiyin, Kang Tong, the head of the imperial diet, and Wu Tian, the chef of Baiweiju, served as the referees. The competition lasts for three days, with one question per day. Looking around the arena, Li Xiandao continued, "Next, I announce that the competition has begun, and the first question will begin!" ”

Li Xiandao removed the red cloth behind him, and a medicinal word appeared on the board, and the twelve chefs present had a meal in their hearts. It's not that the people present haven't done it, but the medicinal diet is complicated, and if you don't understand pharmacology, this dish is not easy to make, and the key thing is that they don't know what the ingredients are.

A team of maids entered with a medicine box in their hands, only to see the big seal of Fuhetang on the medicine box, and the shopkeepers in the VIP area looked enviously at Wang Tao and Hao Yi who were not hiding their joy on the side, these two people were really lucky. After today, I'm afraid that no one in Beijing will know about these two stores. Why did I hesitate at that time?

When the chefs saw the medicine box opened, they breathed a sigh of relief, they were all some materials commonly used in medicinal diets, and it seemed that the competition had also thought of it, and then everyone stepped forward to select the ingredients.

In the stands, Li Xun was looking forward to the food that he would eat in a while, and he was in a particularly comfortable mood at the moment. With a light sniff, a scent attracted her, and she turned her head to look at the staircase, only to see a sister walking up with a plate of snacks in her hand. Li Xun's eyes lit up.

Lin Yuan also heard the movement, and when he saw that it was Li Qingqian, he waved his hand to let the guards let people in, and looked at Li Qingqian: "Why are you here, you can't rest well after being tired for so many days." ”

Li Qingqian's heart was sweet, and he shook his head: "It's not in the way, can you try the new dim sum?" Gonggong Yang looked at Li Qingqian curiously, and then looked at Lin Yuan. Nodded secretly.

"I want to eat!" Li Xun called. Only then did Li Qingqian notice Li Xun on the side, and handed over the plate with a smile. Gonggong Yang was about to stop him, but he saw Lin Yuan pick up a piece from the plate and put it into his mouth, and said, "The taste is good, and the craftsmanship is good." ”

There are always many rules in the palace, and when the royal family members eat, they have to test the poison in the imperial dining room, Lin Yuan didn't want Li Qingqian to be too difficult to do, so he tasted a piece first. In addition, he really doesn't like irrelevant people to touch what he wants to eat.

"Bad uncle, this is from the fairy sister to Xun'er." Li Xun patted Lin Yuan and said angrily. Seeing this, Yang Gonggong also withdrew his hand. And Li Qingqian listened to Li Xun's words, his face turned red, Lin Yuan looked at Li Xun embarrassedly, he was just lifting his guard against Li Qingqian for Yang Gonggong, what nonsense are you kidding.

turned around and was about to apologize to Li Qingqian, but he saw that the person had already blushed, and his already beautiful face was even more beautiful in Lin Yuan's eyes. I couldn't help but be stunned for a while, Yang Gonggong saw this, coughed lightly, Lin Yuan came back to his senses, and said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, Miss Li, Tong Yan Wuji, Tong Yan Wuji." ”

"It's okay." Li Qingqian said softly, Li Xun on the side was eating happily, and patted the empty seat on the side with his free hand, and said happily: "Sister come here, sit with Xun'er for a while." ”

The child is simple-minded, thinking that she can eat delicious snacks if she has a good relationship with Li Qingqian, and she likes it very much. Li Qingqian looked at Lin Yuan and saw him nodding, so he made a blessing and came to sit down beside Li Xun. And at this time, the on-field game has already begun.

At present, the medicinal diet of Da Zhou is inseparable from the process of stewing, and it is mostly matched with meat. After everyone has selected the materials, they have already started to use the knife. But a woman in the field was still hesitating in front of the materials. This person Li Qingqian knows, is a native of Lixian County, outside Beijing, and runs a tavern with her husband, but because of poor management and her husband's incompetence, he has been separated last year, and he runs the tavern alone with his children. The cooking is very delicate.

Zhao Ting is indeed a little difficult to do, she is not proficient in pharmacology, and now that everyone has already done it, she is really a little anxious. Gritting her teeth, Zhao Ting walked up to the box of white beans, thinking that a dead horse would be a live horse doctor, so she chose it.

Seeing that Zhao Ting chose white beans, Li Qingqian frowned, and seeing this, Lin Yuan asked, "Is the choice inappropriate?" ”

Li Qingqian shook his head: "Not really, it's just that it's more troublesome to deal with." Unlike other medicinal herbs, it only needs to be used as an auxiliary material to cook, and this white bean is more difficult to match. ”

Seeing the players in different fields stewing ingredients, Zhao Ting first put white beans and red beans in the cage drawer to steam. Pang Tong's eyes lit up when he saw it, this method had never been seen in the medicinal diet. But Lin Yuan on the high platform knew a little what this woman was going to do.

"Strange, medicinal food can still be steamed?" Wang Tao looked at Hao Yi.

"It's not impossible, but this white bean is very rarely used in medicine, and today it is just a food supplement that can be used ordinarily, and I never thought that anyone would use it. However, these white beans are mostly used for cooking porridge, and this steamed bean is the first time I have seen it. Hao Yi began to think that this person chose white beans for cooking porridge, but now it seems that it is not.

The beans were soaked, and it seemed that the game was somewhat prepared, and Zhao Ting breathed a sigh of relief. When the beans are soft, place them on a cutting board and rub them, and in a short time the beans will become bean paste.

At this moment, the people on the field have begun to serve the dishes, the dishes are very different, most of them are stewed soups, although Kang Tong is a little disappointed, but he still gives an evaluation of the meaning. And Li Xun on the high platform stopped drinking after a few sips, and looked at Lin Yuan with a wrinkled face: "Uncle deceives people, these are not delicious." ”

Looking at Li Xun helplessly, Lin Yuan really didn't know what to say. With more medicinal herbs with things, the taste may not be pleasing to children, but what does this have to do with yourself? Seeing Lin Yuan's expression, Li Qingqian chuckled.

Zhao Ting's dish was finished and the plate was presented. Seeing that the small snacks were neatly placed on the plate, Kang Tong said: "The color is snow-white, and the quality is good." ”

The chopsticks were clamped, and they felt softer, but they were not clipped, and Kang Tong nodded. When you put it in your mouth, you will feel a sweet smell in your mouth, but it is not greasy, and the filling feels very refreshing. The other two also enjoyed it, everyone felt uncomfortable after drinking too much soup, and this snack was really good, and the three of them looked at each other and nodded.

On the high platform, Li Xun had already entered three pieces, and his small mouth was bulging, but he still had to reach out to take it. Lin Yuan blocked his little hand: "This is made of beans, if you eat too much, your stomach is swollen, you eat less first, otherwise you will have to take medicine when you go back." ”

Looking at Li Xun's uncomfortable expression, Lin Yuan smiled secretly, my sister can tell herself that the person in front of me who is not afraid of heaven and earth in the palace, but is afraid of the imperial doctor, because the medicinal soup is too bitter.

He withdrew his little hand stupidly, chewed the white bean roll he had just made in his mouth, sat on the chair with a sullen face, and secretly decided not to ignore his uncle in the future.

At this time, the results of the competition had begun to be announced, and six people were eliminated in this round, and Zhao Ting temporarily ranked first with a perfect score of three judges in the first round. Although they were eliminated, these people were not discouraged, and with Kangtong's guidance, they were not in vain.
