Two days later, the tournament officially began, and the emperor did not attend the first few games because of the large number of participants.

The game was set in the Imperial Palace by the North Garden, the place where the concubine Zou was the pensioner. Concubine Zou has always been known for her mouthful, so the first competition is cooking.

However, cooking skills are precisely Qin Ruse's weakest one, so after the competition started, Qin Ruse looked at the pile of unknown fruits and vegetables in front of him and was confused.

"This is simply killing my mother, if I am brushed down in the first game, the king's face will probably be lost!" The more she thought about it, the more bored she felt.

"Niangniang, otherwise, I'll do it for you while the guard is away." Yao'er took a step forward and whispered in Qin Ruse's ear.

"Okay," Qin Ruse was still happy before she came, and then she shook her head blankly with a bitter face: "If I don't make it delicious, it doesn't matter." If I were caught cheating, I wouldn't be alone. I'd better figure it out myself! ”

Although Qin Ruse said so, she still didn't have a little way to deal with it in her heart. This kind of thing is much more difficult than marching and fighting.

"Ladies and gentlemen, pay attention to the little masters, there is still half an hour left in this competition, please hurry up." Zhu Gonggong patrolled the entire arena.

"Princess Niangniang, there is only half an hour left, why don't you start yet?" Gonggong Zhu was ordered by the Queen Mother to come to see how the nobles were doing, especially the princess of Zhenbei.

Qin Ruse raised her head with a wry smile, raised the two cabbages in her hand with blank eyes, and said to Gonggong Zhu: "I can do it, the key is that I won't!" ”

"The slave has an idea, I don't know if the princess wants to hear it."

"You say!" Qin Ruse has now ignored the word avoidance.

"According to the old slaves, now that they are about to enter the middle of summer, the weather is hot and dry, or you will clean all kinds of dishes and sit on the general eight treasures of vegetables and fruits?"

Qin Ruse was half interested, and shook her head, "The king told me before that the concubine has always had a bad stomach and doesn't like cold food. ”

"Then the lady continued, and the old slave went on patrol." Father-in-law Zhu didn't want to stay here for too long, so he found an excuse and left first.

After Gonggong Zhu left, Qin Ruse glanced at the hourglass where the time was recorded, and her heart was even more melancholy. "Yao'er, you say, is this competition a schedule that was intended to make us cool from the beginning!"

At this time, the dishes of several other ladies began to enter the cooking stage, and all kinds of refreshing aromas wafted everywhere.

After Qin Ruse smelled these fragrances, she felt even more like crying.

"The jade pot Bingxin asked, and the four happy balls, yes, yes, and the chopped pepper fish head." Qin Ruse has always liked to eat, and these tastes are naturally well understood. Because of this, a thought suddenly became clear in his mind.

Because this is a competition, the ladies of the palace will definitely do their best to make a big dish to please the concubine. But the toffee has a bad stomach, and most of these things can't be eaten. If you can make a dish that is worthy of the concubine's heart, maybe there is a chance of success.

In fact, Qin Ruse just found a justifiable reason for not knowing how to cook.

"Yao'er, go give it to me, bring it to the pumpkin!"

"Pumpkin?"

"yes, go quickly."

"Concubine Zou has arrived!" Gonggong Zhu shouted.

Concubine Zou was a concubine who was very favored by the first emperor back then, and when the first emperor died, he also authorized him not to be buried with him, and also gave Beiyuan to her pension. Therefore, Concubine Zou still has a status that cannot be underestimated in the palace. It's just that she has never participated in any palace battles, so it is inevitable that the palace will be colder.

After Concubine Zou sat down, after a few words of greeting, she began to taste the dishes.

"Let's start on the left!" Concubine Zou didn't follow her status or anything, but just casually started to try the dishes in order.

The first dish was a dish made by the daughter of the soldier's squire called "Heavenly and Earthly Delicacies".

"Heaven and earth? Good name. The concubine seemed to be very satisfied with the name, and the smile on her face was a little unbearable for a while.
