In a few days, the day of the New Year's banquet came, and the officials who were related to the palace all learned from the palace officials they were familiar with that this year's New Year's banquet would have different arrangements than before.

In the past few days, Hua Mian only hurried back to the palace when she was preparing dishes for the eleventh prince and sleeping, not because she had any slack in the work here, but because Concubine Jing arranged it like this, and now everything is given top priority to the work of the New Year's banquet, and this work can also help His Highness Eleven's future plans if it is done well.

With Concubine Jing's message, no matter what time Hua Mian goes out to Jing Gong, the palace people guarding the door will politely open the main door for her, in other words, Hua Mian used to sneak out of the back door if she wanted to go out for a run in the early morning.

The preparations before the banquet are not much different from the moon viewing banquet, and this time it is in a large hall, and the fires are burning vigorously.

After all, it is the first time to hold a buffet in this world, and everything can only be arranged according to the layout of the cafeteria in Huamian's memory, where is the type of dining table, where is the tableware, and the position occupied by the chefs...

As small as a spoon and as large as a hanging veil, Hua Mian tried her best to arrange everything properly, but fortunately, since it was a New Year's banquet, the treasury was also abundant enough, so she didn't have to worry about money.

The main hall used for the banquet is quite magnificent, and in Hua Mian's view, it is comparable to the size of a university cafeteria, and the dining table is used to divide the main hall into two areas, and in the middle is the work desk of the chefs.

The stove could never be moved into the hall, but Hua Mian taught the people who worked in the imperial dining room how to heat the pebbles and iron plates to make dishes, and most of these people were responsible for heating the pebbles and iron plates outside the hall during the New Year's banquet, and Hua Mian could only secretly apologize to these people from the bottom of her heart.

Finally came to the day of the New Year's banquet, this day from the early morning everyone in the palace was busy, Hua Mian was not even out of the door of the palace and Jing was pulled into the room by the female officials around Concubine Jing to put on makeup, and did not forget to wear the velvet flower rewarded by Emperor Deyuan on his head.

The palace maids who worked at the New Year's banquet all changed into brightly colored new clothes, and Hua Mian stepped into the hall of the venue, and a warm breath completely unrelated to winter greeted her, wrapped in fruity sweetness, although she had long known that it was sent from the south by fast horses, but Hua Mian was still speechless for this kind of labor and money that was only for a banquet and traveled thousands of miles from the south to transport fruits.

"Chef Xia, come and see here"

After the last moon viewing banquet, Huamian makeup is like a different person, and this time the people in the imperial dining room can calmly talk to Huamian after makeup.

"The hot water in the thermos tray under the dining table must be replaced at any time, so as to ensure that the dishes can always be warm", Hua Mian put his fingers into the huge iron plate under the dining table, at this time, there are palace people pouring hot water for preheating inside, and the tableware containing the dishes can be continuously kept warm by placing them on the large iron plate paper.

At this buffet, Hua Mian's various practices have made Jia Lao fresh, but for some reason, Jia Lao did not say that it was proposed by Hua Mian alone, and everyone seemed to easily accept the statement 'It was Jia Lao's proposal for the buffet'.
