King Qi Wei's dinner was very late, and the late harem attendants went to summon three or four times before the dishes were slowly served.

In the past, this is already a crime of killing heads, after all, the king's stomach is worth more than the heads of these people.

Just when King Qi was about to order these guys to be arrested and questioned one by one, his mouth suddenly stopped, his nose involuntarily inhaled deeply, and the chopsticks couldn't help but stretch out into the bowl......

After the dish was eaten, King Qi did not say anything, but asked the soldiers to release all the nearly 100 people who had been detained, and ordered the officials to meet them after the meal.

"Take it easy, the king asked you to see him, it won't have to be a bad thing!"

Zhaoyun calmed the nervous official, and although this reassurance was useless, the official's legs still shook violently.

It was already dark outside the house, and the cooks who had just been put back were also shocked, they followed Zhaoyun to learn to cook for the first time, and it was inevitable that they would have a late dinner.

I thought that I would give my life because of this, but in line with the principle of professionalism, I cooked more seriously, but I never thought that King Qi would really let them go.

However, some people led by the officials were still uneasy, thinking that the King of Qi was planning to settle accounts after the autumn - but the lord of a country, why bother with them like this?

Su Qin still said cool words on the side: "I said it all, don't be in such a hurry to ask for credit, can't you send it after practicing at lunch tomorrow?" I have to go there on a day......"

Ziyang on the side glanced at him: "Swallow the Dongpo meat in your mouth and then speak, okay?" ”

Su Qin ignored him, and only said that it was delicious, which made people worry about the thickness of his skin.

Zhaoyun saw that the official was still trembling, so he had to say helplessly: "In this case, I will go with you, if you are really afraid that King Qi will kill you, relying on my face, I may be able to save your life." ”

When the official heard this, he was stunned, and suddenly cried, kneeling down to thank him with a sad face, and howling wow, he almost kowtowed his head.

"Holy, Holy Lord!" A cook on the side shouted, but he didn't seem to be used to calling others that, "You said that the king took us down in the first place, why did he let us go again?" ”

Zhaoyun turned his head and asked with a smile, "If I say it, will you believe it?" ”

The cooks seemed to hesitate, but they nodded one after another, after all, after entering the "sect", the boss's words still had to be believed.

"The power of food is endless, maybe it can change a person's heart, or change a person's determination, or even you can use it to conquer a person. I think King Qi may have seen the food be delicious, so he let you go! ”

The cooks looked at each other, and said to themselves, how is this possible? How can a dignified king of a country change his position because of a dish?

However, Zhaoyun secretly laughed in his heart, let you eat water all day long, and suddenly let you eat delicacies from the mountains and seas one day, and whoever changes his heart will change.

Just when everyone was still discussing the reliability of Zhaoyun's words, the attendant in the harem came, and said in a sharp voice: "The king has an order, and the official will enter the palace to meet him!" ”

……

King Qi Wei was still closing his eyes and recuperating, but the corners of his mouth were always reminiscing about the lingering aroma of Fang Cai's meat; Today's dishes are much higher than in the past, and he really wants to meet the officials who have made such reforms.

It is a trivial matter to be half an hour late to serve food, but in the royal family, it is related to the majesty of the royal family, and no one can trample on it!

But what is the majesty of the royal family to be able to eat such delicious food?

Not long after, the official came, and with him came Zhaoyun, who relied on the death of the King of Wei to "be famous all over the world".

"Zhaoyun, why are you here?" King Qi was surprised by his arrival, he had never summoned him!

Zhaoyun arched his hand and said: "I heard that the king of Qi summoned the officials, thinking that he was late for the dinner today, and he was afraid of the crime of wanting to commit it, so he implored the king of Qi to rule the country with benevolence, and don't lose a big one because of a small one!" ”

King Qi was stunned when he heard this, and laughed: "Why do you say this? To make such a delicious dinner today, it is too late to be happy, so why add to the guilt? ”

Zhaoyun glanced at the official on the side, and said in his heart, What am I talking about? The official hurriedly cast a grateful look, and knelt down in fear: "Thank you for the grace of the king not to kill!" ”

"Flat, I haven't asked you yet, why are the specifications of today's dinner so good?"

King Qi's eyes were full of light and anticipation, which was rare in the eyes of a fifty-four-year-old king.

The official said: "King, these dishes are given by Lord Zhao, if it weren't for Lord Zhao showing his edge at noon today, His Majesty would still not know that there is such a delicacy in the world!" ”

"Oh?"

King Qi's eyes lit up, he didn't expect this Zhaoyun to have such a good hand in addition to that mouth! The hundreds of cooks under the king's command were not worth such a young man's cultivation!

"Zhaoyun, you made these dishes?"

Zhaoyun hurriedly said: "Don't dare, these dishes were only learned by accident, mainly because the chefs under the king have strong learning ability, but they have learned a lot in one afternoon." ”

"You don't have to be humble with Lone, I thought that the cook under Lone had made the world's delicacies, but I never thought that this folk person could make the world's delicacies with such a simple method!"

Zhaoyun replied painlessly: "The king praises falsely." ”

"Tut-tut, at such a young age, you are so capable, if there were a few more talents like you in my Qi country, I am afraid that I would have already dominated the world!"

Damn, boss, you said so much to be useful? If you praise so much, it's better to send me a certificate of merit for a good student!

King Qi asked the names and methods of the dishes on the table one by one, and Zhaoyun answered them one by one, regardless of whether King Qi understood it or not, half an hour passed unconsciously.

"It's not that it's very difficult, why do I have so many cooks in the back kitchen, and I haven't been able to develop such a method for so many years?"

As he spoke, King Qi looked at the official with an unkind face, and the latter trembled with fright, and hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy.

"Don't blame them, the king should not blame them, cooking is the same as fighting, the time and place are the same; They have long been accustomed to the cooking methods handed down by their ancestors, how can they dare to deny their ancestors and research new dishes? ”

King Qi stroked his beard, and his heart seemed to be true, so he didn't hold the official responsible, and said: "Since you are so good at cooking, why don't you come to the lonely palace to be an official......"

Zhaoyun's face changed, and he hurriedly said: "King, please forgive me for not being able to accept it." ”

"How?" King Qi looked unhappy, "Do you think that you can't be accommodated here?" ”

"The king tormented me when he said this, I was a small man, and I was only interested in cooking; What's more, all the dishes you know have been taught to the officials of your country, so you don't have to stay here for a long time......"

Zhaoyun suddenly realized that something was wrong at this time, he was too prominent in front of the kings of the Three Kingdoms before, and he even relied on a sharp mouth to say that King Wei Hui was killed; Now that he has conquered King Qi's stomach with his outstanding cooking skills, it is absolutely impossible to say that King Qi Wei does not want to keep himself.

The country of Qi is not a good place, the king of Qi expanded his land for nearly a thousand miles, but because of his arrogance, he almost destroyed the country of Qi, causing the country of Qi to collapse from then on.

With his own strength, he didn't have the heart to take the Qi State to turn the tables; What's more, Daqin, who is eyeing him fiercely, will never let go of his hometown father.

"Don't want to stay long? You're saying that too early, aren't you? King Qi suddenly smiled wryly, "You accepted nearly 100 of my kitchen cooks as your subordinates, and you want to leave so easily?" I'm afraid it's not that easy! ”
