Although Ming Ri is the Four Kingdoms Banquet, but this afternoon, the imperial chefs of various countries will enter the palace to prepare, it can also be said to adapt to the venue, at this point, Li Qi feels that it is very good, and it is also a very important thing for chefs to be familiar with the venue.

After lunch, Li Qi took his two apprentices and set off amid Qin Fujin's nagging. Because of the materials to be used, Zuo Boqing had already prepared them for them, and the pufferfish was too poisonous to be stored in the palace, and it was only sent in when they were competing, so Li Qi and they all set off lightly, which was the home advantage.

After walking for about half an hour, he came to the Daqing Gate in the south of the palace, and after Li Qi got out of the car, he said to Ma Qiao: "Ma Qiao, you can remember, Ming Ri must send the pufferfish on time, and I will call in to meet you here." ”

Ma Qiao snorted and said, "I know." ”

"That's fine. You go back first. ”

"Brother Dazhu, we-we're finally going to enter the palace."

"Really- I can't believe it."

Wu Xiaoliu and Chen Dazhu looked up at the majestic and majestic gate, their voices trembled, this was something they had never dreamed of.

Li Qi glanced at Erjin, shook his head, and said, "Don't look at it, let's go." You two follow closely, be careful of being caught as little eunuchs, but then again, you two look quite like little eunuchs, remember, this is a way out. ”

Eunuch? When he heard this, his face turned green with fright, and he hurriedly followed behind Li Qi left and right, and he almost didn't pull the corner of his clothes.

"Humble position, see official Yan envoy."

When the Praetorian Guards at the gate saw Li Qi coming, they hurriedly saluted.

Li Qi snorted, took the token, and said, "This official was ordered to enter the palace to participate in the Four Kingdoms Banquet, and these two are my assistants." ”

As soon as the words fell, a little eunuch walked over, bowed to Li Qi and said: "Li Dajin, the emperor ordered Xiao Jin to wait for Da Jin here, and when Da Jin comes, he will take Da Jin to Chongzheng Hall to face the saint first." ”

Sweat! Do you need to be in such a hurry? Li Qi pointed to the two apprentices and said, "What about the two of them?" ”

"Dairi, please rest assured, we will send two little masters to the imperial dining room for a rest."

"That's fine."

Li Qi nodded, and said to Wu Xiaoliu: "I'll go to see the emperor first, and you guys pay attention to yourself." ”

Wu Xiaoliu cried and said, "Brother Li, can I go with you." ”

"What do you say?"

"Oh. Then you remember to come to us early. ”

"Okay, you're talking a lot of nonsense."

Li Qi gave him an angry look, and followed the little eunuch in. Wu Xiaoliu and Chen Dazhu followed the two little eunuchs to the other side.

Came to the door of the Chongzheng Palace, and after the little eunuch went in to report, Li Qicai walked in, only to see Song Huizong sitting on the dragon chair, Liang Shicheng standing respectfully aside, and some maids standing on the side.

"Weichen Li Qi see the emperor."

"No courtesy."

Song Huizong smiled slightly and said, "Li Qi, how are you preparing?" ”

Li Qi replied: "The emperor cares, and everything is ready." ”

Song Huizong nodded with a smile and said, "That's good, that's good." After a pause, he said again: "I heard what Gao Aiqing said two days ago, your last dish is going to be made with that poisonous pufferfish, I don't know if there is such a thing?" ”

In fact, the former Gao Yu had already sued Sù Li Qi, saying that the emperor promised him to use pufferfish for cooking. Li Qi bowed his head and said, "Yes." ”

Song Huizong said with great anticipation: "I have long heard that this pufferfish is extremely delicious, but it is a pity that I have to worry about the safety of the pufferfish, and I can't taste it quickly. If you do it, I will support you. ”

If you don't dare, you don't dare, and it's shameless to say that you have to worry about your safety. Li Qi saluted and said, "Thank you for the emperor's support." ”

Song Huizong snorted and said, "Li Qi, this time I will never allow failure, you must win." ”

Li Qi said confidently: "Your Majesty, please rest assured, Weichen will win without suspense." ”

Song Huizong Dayue said, "Okay." What a suspense-free victory, I believe in you. ”

After Li Qi gave Song Huizong this reassuring pill, he went to the imperial dining room, and as soon as he entered the house, Li Qi was dumbfounded, only to see Wu Xiaoliu and Chen Dazhu holding a plate of pastries, eating all over their mouths, and the two hungry people who came out of the refugee cave were really thrown into O. Seeing that Li Qi was displeased, Erjin hurriedly put down the plate.

Zuo Boqing greeted him with a smile, and after a moment of greeting. Zuo Boqing stretched out his hand and signaled, "Brother Li, I'll take you to the place of the Ming banquet now." ”

"Then there is Brother Lao Zuo."

Li Qi arched his hand, and then said to the two apprentices: "Do you two need to go with plates?" ”

"No, no."

The second head shook like a rattle.

Zuo Boqing ha: "It's okay, it's okay, usually when I go to the Drunken Immortal Residence, the two little masters are hospitable to Zuo, and now they finally come once, and I, the head of the imperial dining room, naturally have to do the friendship of the landlord." Please. ”

"Please."

Li Qi glared at them again before walking out with this Zuo Boqing. Wu Xiaoliu and Chen Dazhu also hurriedly followed.

On the way, Zuo Boqing smiled and said: "Brother Li, you are really bold, you dare to use pufferfish to cook." ”

Li Qi smiled: "Where, where, this is all thanks to my father, who taught me how to remove pufferfish toxin." ”

"Ling Zun's cooking skills are really impressive!" Zuo Boqing sighed, rolled his eyes, and said with a smile: "Brother Li, I won't tell you, in fact, I have also studied this pufferfish before, but unfortunately I have not been able to find a way to make it, which is really a big regret in Zuo's life." ”

Depend on! If you want to steal the teacher, just say it, and play this game with me, it's really naïve. Li Qi smiled: "Brother Zuo, in fact, cooking pufferfish is nothing, if you want to learn, Li Qi should obey his fate, but I think this pufferfish should never appear in the imperial dining room, or even the entire Ouchi, which is why I haven't brought pufferfish into the palace now, because once you miss, the consequences are not something you and I can bear, and there are many people in the imperial dining room, it is difficult to take care of them." ”

Zuo Boqing nodded slightly, and said, "What Brother Li said is reasonable, so let's do it, after I remove the position of the head manager, Brother Li will definitely have to give me a few tricks at that time." ”

Li Qi laughed: "Where, where." ”

While speaking, the second entered in front of a fan-shaped door, and there was a plaque on the door, on which the words "Longting Garden" were written.

"This is where Akiri holds the banquet."

Zuo Boqing stretched out his hand and said, "In the past, it was in Gyeongbok Palace, but this time, the emperor moved the banquet here for you." ”

"For me? What do you mean? ”

"You'll find out when you go inside."

A few into the garden, the scene inside is breathtaking, Jing Qiao building and compact layout, planted with ancient cypress and old acacia, the ground is inlaid with various sè pebbles into a variety of symbolic xing patterns, criss-crossed, colorful. The rockery of the rugged and beautiful stone pile, as if it was unexpected, the road is coiled, the potted flower pile scene, a small entry lake in the middle, but it has been frozen, there is a pavilion of different shapes erected in the east, west, north and south respectively, the innermost is a three-storey high attic, the attic is connected with four pavilions with a corridor.

At a glance, it looks like a coiled dragon, majestic.

The ingenuity of the construction is surprising.

The only pity is that it is winter now, and many potted plants have withered and withered.

"Wow! It's beautiful. ”

Wu Xiaoliu and Chen Dazhu sighed in unison.

Li Qi was slightly stunned, pointed his hand at the middle of the Gonggong Lake, and said with a smile: "Brother Zuo is referring to this small lake." ”

Zuo Boqing laughed, stroked his beard, and said, "Yes, the water in this place was not frozen, and the emperor made it for you." ”

Li Qi originally wanted to get a piece of big ice, but he didn't expect that Song Huizong would spend such a lot of money for his dish, and after a slight groan, he also understood, and now Da Song is discussing the issue of Yanyun's ownership with Dajin, and this dish can just be used to swear his sovereignty in front of the other three kingdoms, which can be said to be the right time. said: "The emperor's grace is vast, Li Qi is really ashamed." ”

Zuo Boqing laughed and said, "Please." ”

"Please."

Li Qidong looked, looked west, and pointed to a rockery: "This stone is really artistic, Brother Zuo, where did you buy this, I will also buy two pieces and put them in my backyard, one can add scenery, and the other can raise some monkeys or something." ”

Zuo Boqing sneered: "Brother Li, these are the emperor's favorite granite, and this piece alone may need thousands of yuan." ”

Li Qi was shocked, md, this faint gentleman is really extravagant, a stone costs thousands of dollars, so many stones here. He didn't dare to continue thinking about it, and said, "That's still free, I can buy buns for a lifetime with this money." ”

"Don't talk nonsense about this, the emperor will be unhappy when he hears it." Zuo Boqing waved his hand, not daring to continue the topic, and pointed to the four pavilions and said, "These four pavilions have now been converted into four small kitchens for you to cook. The Emperor and other ministers, as well as the envoys of the other three kingdoms, will be able to taste the delicacies you have prepared in the Dragon Pavilion. ”

Li Qi nodded slightly and said, "Which pavilion am I in?" ”

"Which one is in the east, let's go, I'll take you to see it now."

"Thank you."

After entering the octagonal pavilion on the east side, the royal pavilion is naturally much larger than the outside, and it is at least thirty square meters, with two stoves, three long tables, and some kitchen necessities.

Richie carefully examined every item inside. Wu Xiaoliu suddenly said: "Brother Li, this stove is not enough." ”

Richie snorted.

Zuo Boqing smiled: "It's simple, how much more do you need?" ”

Li Qizheng said: "I still need three stoves." ”

Zuo Boqing was surprised: "You still need three furnaces?" What do you want so many furnaces for? ”

Li Qi said: "My last dish has a total of one hundred and eight processes, if there are only two stoves, I'm afraid it will take a lot of effort, so at least five stoves will be needed." Besides, I wish I was over there," he said, pointing down to the eaves on the left side of the pavilion, "and a large stove and a long table, by which I will dispose of the pufferfish residue." ”

Zuo Boqing was a little stunned, and said in a trembling voice: "You said that this dish has a total of one hundred and eight processes? ”

Li Qi hummed and said, "Yes, I have prepared a total of twelve pufferfish, and each part of the pufferfish has to be prepared separately, so the process is very complicated." ”

Twelve pufferfish are used in a dish, one hundred and eight processes, Zuo Boqing unconsciously remembered the "no phase" again, and dense beads of sweat were already oozing from his forehead, which made him feel tired just thinking about it. Nodding and said, "Don't worry, I'll call in later to help you prepare." ”

At this moment, a large number of people suddenly came in from outside.

Zuo Boqing looked up and said, "They are the opponents you are going to meet this time." ”

"Oh." Li Qi raised his eyes and looked at it for a moment before he said, "It looks ugly." ”
