Chapter 127: For Chen Guo
Ning Qingyue thought that she knew many things that were not available in Chen Guo.
Because of this, she is now in the limelight in Kyoto City.
Of course, the food she makes is delicious because it is fresh, it has been cooked differently, and the ingredients used are richer.
In fact, I can't say how good her cooking skills are, if you put it in the modern era, it can't be compared with a real chef, but here, her cooking techniques are unique.
Cooking skills are one of them, and the other is the second, if she uses her makeup skills, even if she is an ugly monster, she can turn into a beauty, not to mention the musicians in the palace who have a good foundation!
The envoys of the Western Dan Kingdom would easily not believe Ning Qingyue, after all, they had come from afar, and they had never heard of Ning Qingyue's reputation in Kyoto City.
Seeing a woman look unashamed, the ministers all laughed.
"You little girl, how can you make dishes more delicious than the imperial chefs of your palace, who are you fooling?"
"That's it, it's just a little girl, don't be ashamed!"
"I see, you'll have some home-cooked dishes at most, so don't bring them to our eyes!"
……
Listening to the ridicule of these people, Ning Qingyue smiled unhurriedly and said, "But I don't know what you like to eat?" ”
Hearing this, the envoys of the Western Dan Kingdom took one look at each other and laughed.
"Hahaha......"
The laughter of mockery spread throughout the entire hall, and they were not only mocking Ning Qingyue, but also the entire Chen Kingdom.
"We don't like to eat these things from your Chen Kingdom, or the beef and mutton on our grassland are delicious!"
"That is, although you have a lot of things here, no matter how you eat them, the taste is almost the same, it is better to eat meat and drink a lot of wine!"
"Is it possible that Princess Mu will still cook our grassland dishes?"
……
Ning Qingyue smiled softly: "You can give it a try, but I don't know if the envoys of the Xidan Kingdom have eaten roasted whole sheep?" ”
The envoys laughed.
"Don't say it's baked, it's raw, we've eaten it too!"
Sure enough, it is the Xidan country with strong folk customs, and raw meat is also eaten......
Ning Qingyue said again: "In this case, this concubine will be ugly, but I won't roast this whole sheep myself, I will write the steps and hand them over to the imperial chef in the palace, you can watch and eat." ”
Everyone was stunned, still watching and eating?
After Ning Qingyue said this, she looked at Li Yuan, who was in the upper position.
"Your Majesty, please let Concubine Rong go to the imperial dining room first."
Li Yuan nodded slightly, but there was still a hint of hesitation in his eyes: "Go ahead." ”
Whether he believes her or not, he can only do this at this time, and he can't let these envoys of the Xidan Kingdom look down on him.
After a while, Ning Qingyue went to the imperial dining room, because she wanted to fight for the country, even if someone wanted to harm her at this moment, it would be a few moments, after all, above the main hall, but all the people of the Chen Kingdom, listening to the words of the envoys of the Xidan Kingdom, everyone was angry.
Ning Qingyue found paper and a pen to write down all the steps and materials for roasting the whole sheep, and then she looked at the imperial chef and said: "This roasted whole sheep is roasted and eaten, and you will have people carry a stove to the door of the main hall in a while, and then you will starve to death the envoys of the Xidan Kingdom." ”
Ning Qingyue said this, naturally because she knew that in the process of roasting the whole sheep, it would show a very mouth-watering form, and the roasting process would be even more fragrant, as for why the stove was placed at the door of the main hall, to prevent fire, and to prevent smoke.
But even so, Ning Qingyue believes that as long as he thinks of floating into the main hall at that time, especially those envoys of the Xidan Kingdom who are used to eating beef and mutton, I am afraid that they really can't help but come out to take a look.
It takes some time to roast a whole sheep, and taking advantage of this time period, Ning Qingyue naturally wants to do something more important.
Didn't the envoys say that these palace people looked average?
She was just going to put on makeup for the palace people just now, and when the envoys of the Xidan Kingdom saw it, they felt that there were still many beauties in the Chen Kingdom, and she told the truth again, so that they could feel the taste of being slapped in the face.
At the entrance of the main hall, a stove had been moved to the imperial dining room, and after a while, the whole sheep was roasted on the stove.
The imperial chef in the palace strictly followed the steps given to them by Ning Qingyue and relied on the whole sheep, in the end, it was the imperial chef, although they had never made such a dish, but they were still very skilled in their hands.
"What the hell is this Princess Mu doing?"
"That is, why do you have to roast the whole sheep here? But why is Princess Mu not here? ”
"I look at it and it's just for show, I don't believe it, how can she, a Chen Guoren, roast the whole sheep more delicious than our local whole sheep!"
But gradually, the mutton flowed oil, and the yellow and clear oil began to flow down, and the memory of the mutton gradually drifted into the main hall.
"It's too fragrant, isn't it?"
"It looks delicious......"
Many people had already walked to the door of the main hall, and the envoys of the Xidan Kingdom who smelled the fragrance naturally ran to the door to take a look.
Several people looked at the color of the whole sheep's skin, and couldn't help but swallow their saliva one by one.
Why is this roasted whole lamb so fragrant? It seems to be completely different from when they roasted whole sheep in the country of Xidan!
Naturally, it is different, where will the whole sheep of Xidan be sprinkled with so many seasonings, generally just sprinkle some salt, except for the smell of mutton, there is only saltiness left.
It's not that there are no seasonings in Xidan, it's just that the ancients really didn't pay so much attention to it, and they ate very roughly!
Therefore, the whole sheep roasted by Ning Qingyue taught the imperial chefs was not an ordinary fragrance.
On the other side, after Ning Qingyue came to the main hall, the musicians rested in the room where they were preparing for the next show.
"I've seen Princess Mu!"
When everyone saw Ning Qingyue coming, they were all busy saluting, after all, Ning Qingyue's reputation was outside, and everyone not only had awe but also admiration for her.
Ning Qingyue smiled: "You are exempt from courtesy. ”
After speaking, Ning Qingyue glanced at the musicians, good guys, there are more than 50 musicians who are going to perform today.
Ning Qingyue said again: "The musicians who just came out of the hall to perform and play the show. ”
Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what Ning Qingyue was going to do, but after Ning Qingyue finished speaking, a total of eight musicians walked out with their heads down.
They had all heard the comments made by the envoys of the Western Dan Kingdom on them, so they were naturally submissive, for fear of being blamed by the royal family.
Immediately afterwards, Ning Qingyue looked at them and said, "In addition to the dance in the main hall today, do you have any other dances?" ”
The musicians nodded their heads and said in unison, "Yes." ”
Ning Qingyue smiled: "That's okay, go get rouge gouache for this concubine!" ”
Everyone was stunned, what does Princess Mu want to do with this?
But what she wanted, naturally someone quickly took it.
There are a total of eight musicians, and Ning Qingyue has to help them put on makeup in a short time, because it's just the time of a song, so she doesn't have to worry about smudging, so Ning Qingyue doesn't need to put on so much makeup, and she starts to put on makeup for them directly.
At this moment, the musicians were stunned, how noble Princess Mu's status was, she actually put makeup on these lowly musicians.
At the moment, those musicians were all terrified: "Princess, your status is noble, don't ...... this matter"
Before Le Ren finished speaking, Ning Qingyue said: "In front of the family and the country, there is no difference between respect and inferiority, but as long as you fight for our Chen Guo, it is not a big deal." ”
Ning Qingyue said as she began to put on makeup for one of the musicians, while the other musicians whispered.
"I didn't expect Princess Mu to have such a bearing, for the glory of our Chen country, she even disregarded her identity and put on makeup with us lowly musicians!"
"Yes, a woman like Princess Mu, I really admire it too much!"
"I really haven't liked the wrong person, Princess Mu is not only talented, but also extremely valuable!"
……
Outside the main hall, the roast whole sheep was already able to start, and the imperial chefs followed Ning Qingyue's instructions, took a knife to cut off the meat one by one, put it on the plate, and then let people serve it to each table one by one.
At this moment, the envoys of the Xidan Kingdom have been waiting for too long, and the process of roasting the whole sheep is really unbearable and itchy, it looks so delicious, and now it can be regarded as able to eat it in the mouth.
When the tender and delicious mutton was eaten in their mouths, the envoys were all stunned, and finally several people began to gobble it up.
"I've grown so big, it's the first time I've eaten such a delicious roasted whole lamb!"
"yes, this lamb is delicious!"
"Is there anything else, we still have to eat!"
However, the imperial chef said: "I'm disappointed, Princess Mu said that you can only bake one until you finish eating!" ”
Of course, Ning Qingyue can only ask the imperial chef to bake one, after all, scarcity is expensive, only if you don't eat enough, you will be impressed, this is a bit similar to the way modern people do business and sell things, hunger marketing, the less people rush to buy, and roast the whole sheep, there is only one, the less the ministers want to eat more!
Not to mention the envoys of the Xidan Kingdom, even the people of Chen Guo, who had eaten such a delicious roasted whole sheep, all felt unsatisfied.
Especially the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother smiled: "This roasted whole mutton is smooth and tender, and the mourning family was worried that it would not be able to bite it, but I didn't expect it to be so palatable, and it is really something that Princess Mu can make." ”
This time, there were many people in the hall who praised this roasted whole sheep, and Li Song gently hooked the corners of his lips, can the things made by his little princess be bad?
However, although it was not Ning Qingyue who roasted it himself, the steps were his.
The roasted whole sheep was eaten, and the musicians' makeup was also put on.
Eight musicians, Ning Qingyue specially let the one who danced the protagonist wear a veil.
In fact, Ning Qingyue spent a short time putting on makeup for seven of them, but she was a little bothered by the one who danced the protagonist.
But all the musicians who have passed through her makeup have made rapid progress in appearance, and no one who sees it will admit that these musicians are really more beautiful than the other!
Music began to play in the hall, and people were very happy, so they walked in with graceful steps.
