The banquet of Dongyue Kingdom is naturally a separate meal system, Tang Ping sat in the first place as the main envoy, and then Yao Yuanzhi, the deputy envoy, and the remaining few convenience store personnel were originally here to make soy sauce, so it didn't matter how to sit.

Tang Ping let Xiao Luo sit next to Yao Yuanzhi, what he said at first was not fake, if he met a dish he was interested in, he could just tell Xiao Luo and let her learn to make it.

I have to say that Dongyue people are quite good at eating, at least these foods are better than those high-end restaurants in Chang'an City.

The reason for this may be that Dongyue is located in the south of the Yangtze River and borders the East China Sea, so it is rich in products.

Moreover, Tang Ping can obviously feel that the officials and even the people of Dongyue know how to enjoy it more, and they are more particular about food, housing and clothing than the Tang Dynasty.

On the other hand, at this time, Datang was located in the land of four wars, but the materials were not particularly rich, and there were potential enemies on all sides.

The Tang officials are even more energetic, and most of the state expenditure is used to strengthen the army, otherwise there would not be a situation where the second generation of top Tang officials like Cheng Chumo and Du He are often cleaner than their faces in their pockets.

Now what is served is a bowl of soup, Tang Ping tasted it, it was delicious, and the fragrance of this ingredient itself was not something that could be made by seasonings.

Curiously, Yao Yuanzhi asked, "Xiaoluo, Xiaoluo, what is this soup?" Can you taste it? ”

Xiao Luo carefully scooped some with a spoon and put it into her cherry mouth and tasted it, then nodded and said: "I just heard the waiter who served the dish say that this dish is called milk stuffed fish, I tasted it, it should be the fish marinated in cheese first, and then boiled into soup, so the soup is as white as milk." ”

Tang Ping gave Xiao Luo a thumbs up: "Yes, I wrote it down, let's make it ourselves when we go home and try it." ”

He was not surprised by any beef and mutton at this banquet, and those things were not necessarily better than Xiao Luo's, but this milk stuffed fish made him very satisfied.

He didn't know that he was talking to Xiao Luo through Yao Yuanzhi like this, which was actually quite unreasonable, and King Zheng, who was sitting opposite him, looked at him even more unpleasantly.

Suddenly, he shouted: "Lord Tang of the Tang Kingdom! ”

"Huh?" Tang Ping saw the newly served golden jade, that is, sashimi, and was about to show Xiao Luo that he had eaten this dish, when he was suddenly called by King Zheng, and he didn't react.

"His Royal Highness King Zheng, what's the matter?"

"Today, we have a feast with Dongyue and Datang, so naturally we should drink a few more glasses, but just drinking is a little less interesting, why don't we make a wine order?"

"Alcohol order?" Tang Ping was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "How do you enforce the wine order?" ”

"Today, we are in the east and the Tang Dynasty is in the west, taking turns to write questions, how about everyone composing poems separately? The person who does it first can choose a person on the opposite side to challenge, and whoever does it better will naturally be the winner, and the loser will have a drink. ”

Tang Ping subconsciously looked at his right after hearing this, the first Yao Yuanzhi should have no problem, and he can usually feel that his writing is very good.

But Xiao Luo in the back is estimated to pull her crotch, well, Lu Yi seems to be a talented girl, but Lao Cui Lao Du ......

Although there is a poet immortal Li Bai on his side, how old is he? Although I usually read a lot of books, I write poetry......

Look at the other side again, that King Zheng doesn't know, but the others are all officials of Honglu Temple, either they are the ones who took the entrance examination like Lord Liu, or they are the children of the official eunuchs of Dongyue, and they can't write famous works, but chanting two lines of poetry when they drink should not be difficult for them.

Isn't that bullying?

Tang Ping was about to refuse, but Yao Yuanzhi gently pulled his sleeves and said softly: "Lord Tang, you can't refuse, it's not in line with the courtesy." ”

Tang Ping glanced at him, and then looked at King Zheng opposite, okay, this is obviously looking for trouble.

He is used to being salted fish, and he has always disliked to cause trouble, but he is really in trouble, and he is not afraid of things: "You make the question, this poem can be done on your behalf, and you can also find someone to drink this wine on your behalf, no problem, right?" ”

"Okay!" In his opinion, the Tang Dynasty is Yao Yuanzhi and this Tang Ping who doesn't know the depths, but Tang Ping gives him the feeling that he is flamboyant, and there may not be any literary brilliance.

What if Yao Yuanzhi did it on his behalf? Could it be that he alone can overpower so many people in this Dongyue Honglu Temple? You must know that Honglu Temple, as a department responsible for external affairs, is not good at handling other government affairs, but these people really have a set of poems to compose poems.

So King Zheng looked at Honglu Siqing beside him and said, "It's up to Lord Min to make the question, right?" ”

Lord Min of Honglu Temple was depressed.

This King Zheng himself proposed to come to this banquet, and he didn't think much about it, this is Wang Xuanying's favorite son, so he naturally agreed, but he never imagined that he would be so aggressive.

The old Cui Lao Du on the other side is like that, at first glance, he is a soldier in the army, and it is really embarrassing for you to ask them to go down to sumo wrestling and wrestling, and let them chant poems against them.

But King Zheng spoke, and the other side agreed, so now he can only bite the bullet.

And it is too difficult for him to come up with a question, and secondly, he can't let people think that this is a topic that he has thought about in advance, so after looking at the people of the Tang Kingdom, he said: "This girl has a lot of plum blossoms embroidered on her body, why don't you take plum blossoms as the theme?" ”

He was talking about Xiao Luo, and Xiao Luo's pale yellow dress was embroidered with bunches of plum blossoms, and he also used this to show that this topic was indeed conceived.

"Plum blossoms?" Tang Ping thought for a while and nodded, "Then am I the first to do it?" ”

"Lord Tang, please!"

"In the ice and snow forest, different peaches and plums are mixed with fragrant dust. Suddenly, the fragrance of the night was scattered. ”

The prayer hall suddenly fell silent, and everyone looked at Tang Ping.

"What's wrong? Isn't it talking about poetry? Tang Ping muttered strangely, this poem is the work of the Yuan Dynasty poet Wang Mian, it can't have appeared in the Tang Dynasty, right? If it is, then it means that there is more than one traveler in this world.

He looked at the people of Dongyue Honglu Temple on the opposite side with a strange expression, so he had to say, "Is it impossible to do seven words?" Then I'll change it: a few plums in the corner, and Ling Han opens it alone. I know that it is not snow, but there is a dark fragrance. ”

As a result, the faces of everyone in the Dongyue Honglu Temple on the opposite side turned a little red.

Tang Ping felt that something was wrong, and asked Yao Yuanzhi gently: "What's wrong?" ”

"Lord Tang, these two poems were just made?" Yao Yuanzhi also looked at him with a shocked expression.

"No! It was written a long time ago! ”

Tang Ping didn't lie, a song by the crown of the Yuan Dynasty and a song by Wang Anshi of the Song Dynasty had already been written for him.
