A strange aroma permeated Bismarck's mouth, and he felt as if he had returned to his childhood, attending a drinking party in the countryside and tasting large skewers of barbecued meatballs. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 The info is just the taste of the meatballs that have impressed him, and it can't be compared to what he eats now.

Under the guidance of the servant, Bismarck tasted the delicacies that the servant had put on small plates (this method of eating food was according to the Western custom, and he served it separately), which he had never eaten before, and stimulated his taste buds again and again.

Hong Jun looked at the eating appearance of the Prussian monarch and minister, and smiled at Lin Yizhe, looking quite proud.

It's no wonder that Hong Jun is proud, this table of Chinese delicacies is all made by the chef he brought.

Hong Jun's chef's surname is Ding, an uncle and nephew, a famous chef in his hometown, and his cooking skills are extremely proficient. As a Qingliu celebrity, Hong Jun's family is wealthy, and he has always been extremely particular about food and drink, and he is also quite researched. When he was entertaining at home, he concocted many dishes in styles that could not be made outside. And this time to entertain the Prussian monarchs, these two celebrity chefs got Hong Jun's orders, and they were even more willing to show off their skills, which not only retained the characteristics of Chinese national cuisine, but also took care of the taste of foreigners, so that Prussians had to eat their tongues in their mouths.

Lin Yizhe noticed that even Moltkey, who had always been rigid and serious, couldn't help but show surprise on his face after eating a few dishes, and he actually ate several more bites of two dishes that he particularly liked.

"This is a delicacy that God has given to the world, and I must praise the Lord Almighty!" William I tasted more than a dozen dishes in one go, and then stopped to wipe his mouth with a napkin and admired.

"They're not just real delicacies, they're also beautiful works of art." Bismarck looked at the dish on his plate made of flowers that seemed to be made of sliced meat, and he couldn't bear to eat it. It was also a Chinese servant who was quick to put the meat flowers into a small porcelain dish with chopsticks and brought them to Bismarck.

Bismarck carefully picked up a fleshy flower with a fork, and when he ate it in his mouth, he immediately felt that the meat was fragrant, full of fat, but the fat was fragrant but not greasy, which made him feel extremely delicious.

"Wonderful!" Bismarck expressed his heartfelt admiration.

Seeing Bismarck's praise of the dish, Wilhelm I and Moltke also ate it, and after a few fleshy flowers were eaten, they both praised it again and again.

Hong Jun saw that the Prussian monarchs and ministers were full of praise for the dish of "dry pot chrysanthemum bullwhip", and secretly snickered in his heart, and the bad atmosphere of the poor dishes of the Prussian state banquet was out at this time.

"Mr. Lin, Mr. Hong, I would like to ask, what are the ingredients of this dish? If you don't think I'm presumptuous. Bismarck couldn't help but ask.

"Yes! I can only be sure that they are meat, but I can't eat what kind of meat they are. William I also said.

Hong Jun and Lin Yizhe quickly exchanged glances, and Hong Jun also saw a smile in Lin Yizhe's eyes, but he knew that he must not tell the Prussian monarchs and ministers what they were eating.

"This dish is made with beef, chicken and duck and contains the aromas of three types of meat, so it tastes different." Hong Jun replied with a smile.

After listening to the interpreter's explanation, the Prussian monarchs praised the skills of the Chinese chef in unison, and then ate the whole plate of "dry pot chrysanthemum bullwhip".

"Marshal Long didn't come, it's really his loss." Wilhelm I said to Bismarck with a smile.

"I fully agree with Your Majesty's statement, and I think that one day, Marshal Long will surely regret not attending this banquet." Bismarck sighed and said.

After the Chinese mission was invited to Prussia for a friendly visit, Marshal Longn, one of the "troikas," refused to meet with Lin Yizhe because he had been haunted by the "Chinese Magic Box" incident, and refused to meet with Lin Yizhe because he was ill at home, and Wilhelm I and Bismarck had no choice but to do anything about it.

As a matter of fact, Wilhelm I was always skeptical about the "Chinese Magic Box" incident, Bismarck "would rather believe what he has than what he doesn't", Moltke did not believe it at all, and at the same time did not admit that it was an internal leak from the General Staff. After the assassination of the Chinese mission in Paris, Moltke went to visit Lin Yizhe. After receiving Lin Yizhe's denial of this matter, Moltke immediately reported it to Berlin, and Wilhelm I and Bismarck no longer believed in the legend of the "Chinese magic box", but Long was the only one who was still convinced of this matter, so that the "three carriages" still have not resumed normal operation. It is at today's feast that William I has such feelings.

"Eating Chinese food is really the most wonderful taste enjoyment." "No wonder the captains who have been to China have fallen hopelessly in love with Chinese food, which, in the Chinese language they learned, 'lives up to their reputation.'" ”

"The Chinese pay attention to adapting measures to local conditions, from simple to complex. Using the simplest ingredients to create the most wonderful delicacies in the world is what Chinese chefs dream of. Lin Yizhe said with a smile, "If you do not object, I will personally present to you a new dish that I have created in the past few days to express my respect for His Majesty the King, His Excellency the Prime Minister and His Excellency the General." The ingredients are very simple, and as for the taste, I'm sure you'll have your own judgment in a moment. ”

Lin Yizhe got up as he spoke, nodded to the Prussian monarchs, and then left the banquet.

Hearing that Lin Yizhe intended to place himself alongside the king and prime minister, Moltke's heart was very moved, and he looked at the back of this young man leaving in a daze, and sighed secretly in his heart.

After a short time, Lin Yizhe returned, holding a round porcelain plate in his hand, containing fragrant small pieces of meat, accompanied by red peppers and golden peanuts, which were very appetizing to look at.

Lin Yizhe personally placed the plate in front of the Prussian monarchs, then took the small plates, filled them with a spoon, and personally sent them to the Prussian monarchs and ministers, inviting them to taste. When Lin Yizhe was about to put the small plate containing the dish in front of Moltke, Moltke, who felt flattered, got up rarely, took the dish with both hands, and said, "Thank you very much!" ”

William I first took a deep breath of the aroma from the dish, then scooped a spoonful of meat with a small spoon, put it in his mouth, and chewed it carefully.

Bismarck and Moltke did not eat immediately, but carefully observed Wilhelm I's reaction.

Wilhelm I chewed a few bites, his eyes suddenly widened, his face suddenly turned red, and his expression was very excited, Bismarck and Moltke couldn't help but be secretly surprised to see that the tip of the Prussian king's nose was oozing beads of sweat.

William I swallowed the food in his mouth and opened his mouth to speak, but his lips trembled a few times, but nothing came out. He then scooped another spoonful of meat into his mouth, and as he put the spoon down, he stretched out his thumb to express his admiration.

Seeing the king's reaction, Bismarck and Moltke immediately scooped a spoonful of meat from their respective plates and put it in their mouths.

Lin Yizhe watched their reactions carefully, and saw that beads of sweat were also oozing from Bismarck's and Moltke's foreheads, and after they swallowed the meat in their mouths, they couldn't wait to take a glass of champagne and take a sip. After drinking, the two, like their king, did not stop, and it was evident that the Prussian monarchs were very appreciative of the chicken.

William I was still unsatisfied, and ate two plates in a row, so he stopped to wipe his mouth with a napkin, and then took the towel to wipe the sweat from his face.

"It's so spicy! It's the hottest of all the delicacies I've ever tasted, and it's hard to refuse. William I looked at Lin Yizhe and said, "Mr. Lin, can you tell me the name of this delicious dish?" ”

"I named it 'Sauce Fried Chicken', and it's made from adult rooster and is made with chili peppers and peanuts, which are among the most common ingredients in China. The tenderness of the chicken, the crispiness of the peanuts, and the spicy pepper make me honoured to receive such praise from Your Majesty, the Prime Minister and the General. Lin Yizhe replied with a smile.

"Wonderful! This kind of spiciness makes me feel extremely happy. At the same time, you used this delicious dish to make me understand a truth. William I said.

Hearing Wilhelm I say this, Bismarck and Moltke stopped their forks and spoons in their hands and looked at their king.

"At first, the spicy taste is very unpleasant, but after a while, you will feel its aroma." William I said, "If I had given up further tasting because of the spicy nature at the beginning, I would not have been able to taste the delicacy that followed." If God wants to give us light, he must first expose us to darkness. If we are stunned by this temporary darkness, we will never see the day when the light will come! Thank you very much, Mr. Lin! ”

"I am greatly impressed by the wisdom of His Majesty." Lin Yizhe stood up with a smile, bowed respectfully to William I, then raised his glass and said to the guests, "I propose to toast to the health of His Majesty the King and the bright future of the Kingdom of Prussia!" ”

All the guests got up and raised their glasses and drank together, pushing the atmosphere of the banquet to a climax.

After a few rounds of drinking, the Prussian monarchs, who had never drunk so much wine, were a little drunk, despite the champagne they had drunk.

"Mr. Lin, I have been thinking just now, if you are a Prussian, then no matter how flowery words I use to praise God, it will not be an exaggeration!" After drinking another glass of champagne, Wilhelm I, who had drunk a little high, said loudly to Lin Yizhe, "If this 'if' is true, all the official positions and titles in Prussia will be chosen by Your Excellency, except for my throne!" ”

Hearing the King of Prussia say such a sentence, Hong Jun was shocked and admired for a while, surprised that the King of Prussia was so straightforward, and admired the extraordinary bearing of Wilhelm I who dared to use people out of the ordinary.

"Your Majesty has an overreputation, Lin is just a little courtier of the Chinese Emperor, and he can't bear His Majesty's love." Lin Yizhe said with a smile, "In terms of governing the country, I am far inferior to Your Excellency the Prime Minister, and in the management of the army, I can't look at Marshal Longen's back, and my strategy can't be compared with General Moltke." Your Majesty has courtiers who are loyal to you, and the kings and ministers are of the same mind, so why worry that the country cannot prosper? ”
