Chapter 886: There is a gap with the actual age
"Slave Zhou Song, meet the concubine!"
As soon as the man entered the door, he bowed his hand respectfully to Su Xi.
However, Su Xi didn't withdraw his eyes from him for a long time.
She originally thought that the person who appeared in front of her should be about fifty years old, slightly chubby, and of medium height.
After all, he is a person who has served the first emperor, and the first emperor has passed away, and the new emperor Ling Juncheng has been on the throne for about ten years.
But the person in front of him was no more than the same age as Ling Juncheng.
I saw that he had high black hair, a fair complexion, deep eyes inlaid under a pair of sword eyebrows, a high nose bridge, and thin lips gently pursed, looking like a very warm and jade-like person.
Su Xi was dumbfounded.
Didn't it mean that when Ling Juncheng was still very young, this cook was working in the imperial dining room?
Then he was only a few years old at the time!
"..... What's wrong with you? Imperial Chef Zhou is still waiting for you to speak. ”
Seeing that Su Xi couldn't come back to her senses for a long time, Mai Sui gently reminded her in her ear.
Only then did Su Xi retract his eyes.
"Zhou Song, your cooking skills are very good, the food you cook is the best meal I have ever tasted."
She curled the corners of her lips into a well-placed smile.
"It's good if the concubine likes it, and the lady will order what she wants to eat, and the slave will prepare it carefully."
Zhou Song looked very respectful, and his tone of voice was gentle, as gentle as the warm sun.
Su Xi took a sip of tea from the teacup.
Since she came to Beiling, there are not a few beautiful men she has seen, but it is really the first time for a beautiful man like Zhou Song, who is so approachable and approachable.
Her first impression of him was good.
"You should have started cooking at a very young age, right?"
It's not good to ask people's ages directly, she can only interview from the side.
I don't know if he's really not old, or because of proper maintenance?
Maybe he's a lot older than she's supposed to be, and if he's done with proper maintenance, she'll have to learn more from him.
It is not impossible for food to regulate anti-aging, but he is very good at making medicinal porridge.
"The slave is from a family of chefs, and three generations of the Zhou family have worked in the imperial dining room, so they have been nurtured since childhood."
Zhou Song replied.
Su Xi nodded slightly.
It turned out to be a family of chefs, no wonder the cooking skills are so good.
There are many cooks in the imperial dining room, there are dozens of people, Ling Juncheng specially arranged him to come to her Qingle Palace, he is naturally the most exquisite among the many cooks.
"So, when did you enter the Imperial Dining Room?"
Su Xi still wanted to know how old he was.
She's still thinking about asking him for a maintenance secret.
A woman's face is fleeting, and if she can slow down, she will slow it down, although she doesn't like to dress herself, but she is also afraid of getting old.
"When the slave was eight years old, he participated in a cooking competition held in the palace, and then the slave was favored by the first emperor, and the first emperor arranged for the slave to enter the imperial dining room."
Zhou Song's unhurried tone fell gently.
Su Xi was deeply shocked in his heart.
At the age of eight, he entered the imperial dining room!
It was personally selected by the first emperor, and even the assessment was saved.
In this case, the age of him and Ling Juncheng should be almost a few years apart.
"Imperial Chef Zhou is really young and promising!" Su Xi sighed, "I really wronged you when I came to Qingle Palace from the imperial dining room." ”
"If you feel unaccustomed, tell me, I will ask the emperor for an order to transfer you to the imperial dining room."
