"Master Liu, the ingredients brought into the palace this time don't seem to be very good." Yue Yao said euphemistically, after all, it is on someone else's territory, and she can't say it well: Master Liu, I suspect that some of your insiders are corrupt.

Maybe it's because her vision is shallow, she really doesn't know what kind of money is made in this ingredient?

"Boss Mu, what do you mean by that?" Master Liu's face immediately turned unsightly, and reminded Yue Yao to keep his duty, "The emperor only allowed Yue Yao the responsibility of drawing up the menu, so you don't need to worry about this." ”

"You ......" Yue Yao didn't expect Master Liu to have this attitude, she was a little short of words for a while, and the anti-striation mode was not opened, she was also confused at this time, and she had no intention of making a stalemate with the people in the imperial dining room, so she lowered her voice and said kindly, "The emperor decreed that I would cooperate with the imperial dining room, and this state banquet was a matter for our two families, and I just put forward my own opinions based on what I saw in the facts." ”

"But with a little achievement, do you feel how good you are? You're not far from it. Master Liu spoke very loudly, and his white beard shook and trembled, "Young people nowadays are becoming more and more self-righteous. ”

Inexplicably receiving this reprimand, Yue Yao was very dazed, but he still looked frank and confident: "Where Master Liu said, I am still very self-aware, as a junior, I still respect you very much." ”

They are obviously talking about the quality of the ingredients, how can they talk about respecting the teacher: "Master Liu, stale ingredients will definitely affect the taste of the dishes, this banquet is very important, I believe this is understood in your hearts." ”

"Boss Mu," Master Liu glanced at Yue Yao coldly, as if he didn't care about it at all, "Just do what you have to do, don't be too lenient, be careful of falling on your heels." ”

This means that she is nosy, so if Yue Yao insists on taking care of it, what measures are they going to take to stop her?

Yue Yao and Master Liu grinded for a while, and all the good and bad things were said, and in the end he simply ignored people, and Yue Yao nagged on the side. This sense of picture, if it weren't for the fact that the two of them clearly had a tense atmosphere, would be a little funny.

However, Yueyao couldn't laugh at it, Master Liu couldn't make sense, and there was no way to find an assistant to transport the ingredients, so she had to go to Nanyue Palace to find Wei Xuanmo.

The supply of Chunfeng Proud House has always been relatively reliable, and Yue Yao's first thought was to transfer it from his own restaurant to fill it in, but the meat is easy to find, but there are not so many fresh vegetables.

Qi Nanshan didn't know where to get the news, so he sent someone to Chunyu Pavilion to spread the news that the tenants under his name had enough vegetables, and Yue Yao was overjoyed, and the matter of ingredients was easily solved.

The time for the official reception of the envoys is coming, and the emperor also specially came to inspect it in advance, and Wei Xuanmo, Yue Yao, and Master Liu, the head of the imperial dining room, all followed.

At a glance, the emperor saw a particularly dazzling woman surrounded by cooks, with a dignified face and a line of sight straight ahead, but secretly plotting her mind. He pretended to unintentionally sweep his gaze in the direction of Wei Xuanmo, hooked his thin lips, smiled slightly, and scattered a little majesty, trying his best to put on a kind brother, so as not to frighten his younger siblings.

But no matter how much the emperor kneaded his expression, Yue Yao always lowered his head and didn't look up.

All the dishes in the kitchen have been cooked, just waiting for the big boss to review. The first dish of the banquet was cooperated by Yue Yao and the imperial dining room, and half of each was completed, and the follow-up dishes were completely taken care of by Yue Yao, and at this time, the first dish was served and the emperor was invited to inspect it.

After inspecting one dish after another, the expression on the emperor's face became more and more relaxed, more and more satisfied, and in the end, he directly praised him: "The wooden boss of the Spring Breeze Proud Building, the king of chefs, is indeed worthy of his reputation." ”

He nodded again and again, and it became more and more pleasing to the eye when he looked at Yue Yao: "Some dishes I haven't even seen before, it seems that it really took a lot of thought." ”

Yue Yao responded with a smile and gave Wei Xuanmo a look, Wei Xuanmo grinned without a trace, and smiled faintly, quite a bit of honor.

The emperor caught a glimpse of the small gesture of flirting between the two of them, and his heart was also very happy. Retracting his gaze, he gently bowed his head to the eunuch who was trying the dish, and the eunuch received the order and opened the lid of the next dish, but he was so frightened that the porcelain lid in his hand fell to the ground with a "clang" and shattered to the ground.

The chief eunuch who was with him also stepped forward in time to protect the emperor, and after some panic, he found that there was a dead mouse lying on the golden pot.

This is the famous work of the Yueyao Chef King Championship finals, and if something goes wrong, it will naturally be inseparable from her, Master Liu immediately stepped forward and said angrily: "Boss Mu, what's going on?" This is not a joke, the Holy One is here, and you can't tease it. ”

"The women don't dare." Yue Yao was shocked, and immediately softened her legs and knelt down. It's been nearly half a month since she came to the palace, she hasn't learned anything, and her kneeling skills are ready to update her skills at any time. Regardless of whether it is wrong or not, kneel down first, not to mention that this is the ultimate boss in front of you, so you must not hesitate.

Caught off guard, he saw Yue Yao kneeling on the ground in a daze, Wei Xuanmo was also surprised, he deliberately avoided the royal brother's playful gaze just now, and only heard the angry accusation of the head of the imperial dining room, and he didn't know what was going on.

The emperor was frightened, and the people involved were duty-bound, and he was used to such a scene when he was kneeling like this by Yue Yao, but thinking of the identity of the person on the ground, and then glancing at Wei Xuanmo's expression, even the Ninety-Five Zun was a little unexpected.

A eunuch stepped forward to accept this dish, his expression looked a little better, but he still tried to maintain his seriousness: "Is this the dish that will be presented to the envoy of the Western Regions the day after tomorrow?" Not angry and self-assured, the group in the imperial dining room also knelt down busily, and the small kitchen was pressed and knelt down, and there was a low pressure in the air.

Everyone trembled and didn't say anything, Yue Yao lowered his head and waited for a while without a sound, thinking that this dish was made by himself after all, he still pleaded for the crime first: "Please forgive the emperor, the people's daughter has no such intention." ”

The emperor's back was straight, tall and straight, with a momentum of his own, and his cold voice made everyone even more frightened: "Is what I saw before fake?" With such a big mouse on the table, how do you want me to believe that it was your mistake, or let me tolerate your mistake? ”

Yue Yao was speechless, she didn't know what was going on, she couldn't even do a basic rebuttal, and she didn't even dare to tell the emperor the vague conjecture in her heart, so she could only bow her head and keep admitting her mistakes.

Master Liu pursed his lips and smiled, and hurriedly retreated as if he had a sense of it, and said, "Emperor Mingjian, no matter what Boss Mu's intentions are, he is not suitable for the work of the envoy's banquet. ”

Wei Xuanmo instantly blessed his soul, knowing that the things behind the scenes would be much easier.
