Chapter Ninety-Seven: The City Lord Turned Out to Be a Descendant of the Emperor
Zheng Ming took off his apron with a smile, handed it to a little eunuch beside him, and said slowly: "Why can't I be here, there is no one in this free city who can cook better than me, how about it, there is no one else I cook these days." Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info" as he spoke, and sat down.
Changfeng actually sat down, sat opposite Zheng Ming, stared straight at Zheng Ming, and sneered: "Mu Tian, this time we have all looked away, in front of you is the supreme governor of the City of Freedom, our city lord." ”
I was stunned for a moment, and I didn't come back to my senses for a while. Wait, my thinking is a little messy, Zheng Ming, isn't he a prisoner, and finally judged that he is the eyes of the city lord, how can he become the city lord again? Isn't the city lord more than 300 years old? This Zheng Ming is also in his forties, does he wear a mask?
Changfeng saw that I had been stunned, so he pulled me, and I sat down next to him. Zheng Ming, no, I have to call him the city lord now. The city lord pointed to the table with a smile: "Let's try it first, this is the result of my busy work from noon to now." ”
Looking at the dishes on this table, I suddenly lost my appetite. Changfeng was not polite, stretched out his chopsticks and grabbed a piece of pork ribs, threw it in his mouth and ate it, chewing while savoring: "It really has the style of a chef, such a common dish, it is so delicious, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, moderately fragrant and soft, sweet and sour, this is the best sweet and sour pork ribs I have ever tasted." ”
The city lord looked at Changfeng and enjoyed it, with a smile on his face, as if he had won a gold medal in the International Chef Competition, he pushed the steamed bear paw in front of Changfeng, and said softly, "You can taste this again." The voice was full of anticipation and full of confidence.
Changfeng carefully pierced it with chopsticks, a little hesitant, but still picked up a piece and put it in his mouth. I saw that he narrowed his eyes, his cheeks agitated, and slowly circled in his mouth a few times, and then his throat moved, and he swallowed, but his expression was fixed there. I couldn't hold back any longer, picked up the chopsticks, reached out and grabbed a chopstick, threw it into my mouth and chewed it, it was smooth and tender, and there was a little tendon, it was the feeling of a bear's paw, and it tasted more delicious than the bear's paw I had eaten. At this time, Changfeng seemed to wake up from the aftertaste and applauded. While applauding, he sighed: "The city lord is the city lord, and it is really admirable that the bear's paw can be made with the real one." ”
Isn't this a real bear's paw, but made by something else? Wow, the taste of the remaining delicious taste in the mouth is incredible, this is really amazing. I asked in disbelief, "Isn't this really a bear's paw? Why didn't I eat it, how did I do it?"
The city lord laughed: "Brother Xiao is really my bosom friend, he can taste the mystery at once." This is not difficult to make a real bear's paw, first of all, take out a little raw gluten and roll it into thin slices, and put it into a bear's paw mold. Then make a little gluten on the drawer and steam, take out and cut into strips. The tofu is pressed into a fine puree with a knife, pork, chicken breast, and fresh shellfish are chopped into a fine puree with a knife, put into the same basin, add my secret seasoning, Shao wine, salt, starch, egg white, green onion and ginger juice, and pepper water to stir evenly, and then stir until it is strong, pour it into the gluten skin in the bear's paw mold and compact, and then press the steamed gluten strips into the appropriate position of the bear's paw mold, use it to make the tendons of the bear's paw, repair it into a bear's paw shape, steam it in the upper drawer over medium-low heat, buckle it into the soup basin, add soy sauce, Shao wine, green onions, Steam the ginger slices on low heat for 20 minutes, move them to the center of the plate, add oil to the fryer, add fresh soup, add oyster sauce, abalone juice, soy sauce, and sugar to adjust the flavor, beat the thickener and pour the oil, and pour the juice on the steamed bear's paw, and it is ready......!
I stared at the city lord and listened to the explanation, and he could figure it out, but listening to his explanation in such detail, he really made this thing. I only heard the city lord instruct the little eunuch next to him to take the wine, and specially told him to ask for the old wine. Soon the little eunuch brought a large jar of wine, opened the mud-sealed wine lid, and smelled the fragrant wine from a distance, growing so big, I had never smelled such a mellow wine, and immediately felt that the saliva was about to overflow, and hurriedly swallowed it back. It's a shame to hear a "grunt"!
Soon, a glass of mellow wine was brought to me, this wine with a low nose, if you don't drink it in your stomach, I'm afraid that the wine worms in your stomach will crawl out and beg for wine by yourself, but it won't be poisonous, right? Changfeng picked it up, took a small sip, and then said: "This should be a hundred years old, I haven't drunk such a mellow wine, it's really not drunk and everyone is drunk." ”
Since the long wind has been drunk, I am still polite, and I took a sip gently, as I smelled, the taste was fragrant, the entrance was sweet and mellow, although it had been swallowed, but the mouth was already fragrant.
Seeing that we had already drunk, the city lord said happily: "This is a fine wine that I have treasured for more than 200 years, I am a stingy person, and I never take it out easily, but today with the two virtuous brothers, this altar must be drunk clean, come, let's have a drink." As he spoke, he raised his glass.
Changfeng didn't respond, but said lightly: "Cheers must have a reason, I don't know why toast." ”
The city lord was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "This first cup is naturally the friendship of our three brothers, so why don't we follow Liu Guan and Zhang Taoyuan to form a righteous marriage." ”
Changfeng said: "The friendship of our three brothers? I have only drunk a few times with the city lord, and I can't climb up to the brothers, and I don't dare to be so presumptuous as to make a righteous alliance with the city lord Taoyuan." When he said this, he still had that faint expression, as if the praise and appreciation just now were not from his mouth.
The city lord had a look of disgrace on his face, and waved his hand to let the eunuchs who were standing aside and waiting to go down. After they went down, the city lord spoke: "Brother Xiao, in order to get close to the two brothers before, it was inevitable that they would appear as ordinary people, but this does not affect the feelings of you and my brother. When I was Zheng Ming, the three of us brothers talked about everything and could talk very happily, if you think that my identity has affected the relationship between our brothers, then you still treat me as Zheng Ming, your big brother Zheng, how about it?"
Changfeng said coldly: "Impossible, Zheng Ming has died in my heart, and now, in front of us is a despicable, ruthless, murderous, and hypocritical villain, you say, will I talk about brotherly feelings with such a person?"
Hearing Changfeng's comment, instead of getting angry, the city lord laughed: "Hahahaha, I didn't even know that I had so many good names. So tell me, how am I mean, ruthless, murderous, and hypocritical?"
Changfeng was not afraid: "You coveted treasures that did not belong to you with your own selfishness, and wasted my father's life, this is your despicability; you have captured many innocent people as the objects of your experiments, and how many wives have been separated, this is your ruthlessness; you have cruelly maimed and killed these people with ulterior motives, this is your cruelty; you have shown people with false benevolence and righteousness, and approached my brothers with false identities, this is your hypocrisy. Which one did I get wrong, and which one you don't?"
The city lord listened and smiled slightly: "Brother Xiao explained like this, I am really a despicable, ruthless, murderous, and hypocritical villain. It's just that as the lord of a city, what you want to think and do is always to consider the overall situation, sacrifice the small self, and fulfill the big self. Not to mention your father and the civilians, even if I am asked to die, I will have no complaints. ”
Changfeng said coldly: "What is the overall situation you are talking about?"
There is a very distant sparkle in the eyes of the city lord: "Let there be only one country on this earth, that is the Ming Dynasty, only the Ming Dynasty is the world, let the Ming Dynasty become immortal!"
Is the Ming Dynasty the Ming Dynasty established by Zhu Yuanzhang? I wondered: "So what, the Ming Dynasty has been dead for hundreds of years, and even if it can be restored, it can only be a historical regression, which is not valid at all in the theory of evolution." Are you trying to accomplish a result that doesn't work?"
The city lord suddenly looked coldly: "Evolution? That's just a trick by ignorant children to fool the world, that is, you people who are used to being fooled are easy to believe." I have mastered the art of immortality, and I have cultivated the immortal body. Which of your arguments makes sense?"
Changfeng said angrily: "Then do you want to create a virus to destroy the people of the outside world?
The city lord said lightly: "If I don't do this, then I will always have to retreat in this underground, if I don't do this, I will be ostracized and hunted down as a dissident, of course I have to strike first, since the people outside will not tolerate me, I will not tolerate them." ”
Changfeng laughed at him and said, "It's really a frog at the bottom of the well, what do you think the world is, it's just that the original Ming Dynasty is so big?"
The city lord was very unimpressed: "Of course not, the surface area of the earth is 510 million square kilometers, and our Ming Dynasty, which is where China is now, is only about 9.6 million square kilometers, and there are 224 countries and regions in the world, but I only need to drop the virus in a few large countries and powerful countries, and the world will be mine." Although the earth looks big, it is only a small planet in the vast universe, and how small it is compared to the universe! What is my rule over the earth?"
It is not obvious that this is still a knowledgeable and idealistic city lord, and he also has a far-sighted vision, and in his opinion, ruling the earth is as simple and understandable as owning a football. What made him have such a big ideal? Is he really immortal?
Changfeng seemed to be clear: "You shouldn't be alone, it's just your partner, if he is here, you shouldn't be so bothered." ”
The city lord asked Changfeng with interest, "How do you know that I am not fighting alone?"
