Alphonse's words made Vincent laugh on the spot.

"Old man, I can make you boast, today's chef can be regarded as a great achievement!"

Listening to His Majesty's ridicule, Alphonse seemed to be nothing, and whoever was lying down was his usual style, but raised the fork with the food in his hand.

"Alas, good is good, bad is bad, I don't have so many twists and turns in my heart, but I don't necessarily like others when I eat well, I don't understand anything, and if it's not right, Your Majesty doesn't have to take it too seriously!"

"Yo he! look, look at it! It can be seen that this is really good, and they all know that they are thinking about others!" Vincent was even more happy, and the others around him were also happy, because Vincent had just said something, and they happened to understand the meaning of it.

Because in the occasion of this kind of high-level banquets, most of the generals from the military background do not have a very good family background, and they have not received any good education since childhood, and have always been the object of ridicule and contempt by the majority of nobles, especially the eating preferences and informal and unrestrained manners brought about by military habits are regarded by the upper class society as a manifestation of barbarism, primitive and rudeness, of course, there are also people who have tried to control their words and deeds according to the standards in the eyes of those people, but they have been ridiculed more violently because of their indecent rawness and dullness, so later the military did not bother to behave in front of these nobles。

But they are all high-ranking generals who have been in high positions all the year round, and they naturally know that their profligate performance at the banquet will make His Majesty the King very embarrassed and difficult, but they are not willing to be squeezed and bullied by the nobles like this, so they also do their best to spark with the noble class in private, and it is precisely because of this that it is rare for someone to make food that is popular with them and others in the banquet, and they can disgust these noble classes who only like those pretending to be exquisite foods on weekdays, but it would not be good if the other party criticized this and attacked His Majesty, and therefore let the chefs who made these dishes that were their appetite be punished。

So this is the first time that Vincent has seized the opportunity to make fun of it.

"Your Majesty, don't listen to his nonsense, and I don't know who just praised the taste of this 'teriyaki chicken' and 'marinated pork', and forced the servants to add two dishes!"

"Fuck off, Paparoni, you old fox eats less than I do! You're still so overeating at that age, be careful that you don't come up in one breath and go west!"

"But Your Majesty, I don't blame Alphonse for being biased, today's dish is really very much in the minds of our rough people, there are no overly fancy decorations, and it is not all those flowers and plants (vegetarian dishes) that are difficult to satisfy hunger, and the old man still has to eat these meat dishes to be the most comfortable.

But if there were no big fish and big meat at the previous banquets, but they were by no means as fascinating as this time, we all know that Your Majesty, in order to take care of our people, every time you let the back kitchen make some simple and real food, but those noble people look down on us, and the chefs who cook may not be willing to make these rough dishes, so to tell the truth, the palace banquet is actually a kind of torment for us people.

Originally, I was not optimistic about these foods at first, but you are the male lord who has fought with us in the army, and I know what the soldiers are used to eating, and I really don't believe that this beautiful chicken can fill my stomach......"

As the old general spoke, he put on a bittersweet memory killing feeling:

"When I went with the first emperor to the east to crusade against the rebellious subject country Hassel, all kinds of dangers were really not enough for outsiders, but in the end, the empire expanded its territory to the east for dozens of miles. What I remember most vividly was the battle at Hillabous, when I led my army deep into the rear of the enemy to disrupt the supply of the enemy's rear, and the results were remarkable, but my troops suffered heavy casualties, and they had no choice but to flee with all their might, and in the end only me and two escorts fled alone in the frozen snow, when cold and hunger were more terrible things than the enemy and cavalry.

Eventually, two of my guards gave me all the rations, but they starved to death in the snow, and I survived for seven days on half a dried roast chicken before I made my way back to our garrison. Since then I have no appetite for the dry chicken, and it feels like it's going to cut my throat and stomach in my mouth.

But today's dish is different! tender and juicy, mellow but not fishy, and the warm taste seems to give people infinite power when it comes down to the stomach.

If we had had eaten this kind of food, and had more strength to fight even a little, my team would have died less, and my two guards might have survived with me.

The food may not be a very elegant treat for us, but it is definitely not something to be joked about, and we can feel that the food is done with care, so I also think today's chef is very good.

Please also ask Your Majesty to convey your thanks for us people no matter what!"

"Hehe, I understand your kindness! But I'm afraid you're underestimating the chef in charge of cooking today, not afraid of the jokes of the people, this is the master I pulled down and begged over, not only are you moved by his craftsmanship, you might as well look at the reactions of those dignitaries and ladies......"

With Vincent's reminder, all the generals looked around and found that it was not only they who had a good meal, but the pretentious characters at the usual banquets had more or less let go of their reserve today, even if they danced like butterflies in their social circles, they did not stop frequently taking food from the dining table next to them.

"I'm afraid you don't know yet, the restaurant managed by today's chef has recently enjoyed a very good reputation in the aristocratic circle, but it's a pity that people are located in the outer area of the royal capital.

I really didn't expect that I couldn't do anything in the court, but let a small restaurant achieve it with just a few foods, in fact, I also feel very relieved!"

"Hahaha, if this is the case, then I have to have a drink!" Alphonse immediately followed suit, he has always been indispensable to the nobles, and it is rare to have such a good opportunity today, so he naturally has to respond more.

"So don't worry that he will be embarrassed by those people, it's too late to compliment! I'll also see if I can keep him in the palace after tonight, so that you difficult masters can think more about entering the palace, and you can come to me to catch up with me a lot if you have nothing to do!"

Vincent's idea caused a crowd to stir up again, and the atmosphere of this banquet was really different.
