"Grandma Huang, don't worry, I'm a master of winemaking, I'll ask my maid to send you two jars later." Sheng Zhiyao said with a smile.

"Hehe, far away, you really surprised the imperial grandmother, how can Sheng Lixin have such a good fortune, this time you are really going to make a name for yourself."

"Hehe, Grandma Huang, you are also blessed, I am also your granddaughter, besides, I don't want others to say that I became the county lord by my connections." Sheng Zhiyao said with a smile.

"You kid, even if you want to be strong, you must also know how to advance and retreat."

"I know, don't worry, Grandma Huang, I'll go and discuss these dishes with Master Li first, and I'll talk to you later."

"Go ahead."

The queen smiled as she watched Sheng Zhiyao leave, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

Sheng Zhiyao left the queen's bedroom and went to the imperial dining room to find Li Yuan.

Imperial Dining Room.

At this time, Li Yuan was directing the chef to prepare dishes for tomorrow's banquet, and when he saw Sheng Zhiyao coming, he hurriedly walked over and saluted Sheng Zhiyao: "County Lord, why are you here?" ”

Sheng Zhiyao looked at him: "Grandpa Li, Grandma Huang asked me to help prepare the dishes for this banquet." ”

"Yes, I have just received the queen's decree, do you have any good dishes this time?"

"Well...... Sheng Zhiyao thought for a while, and then said with a smile: "Grandpa Li, don't look at my young age, I have a lot of knowledge about eating." ”

"Haha~ I know you're a big ghost, what are you going to do?"

Sheng Zhiyao thought for a while: "Grandpa Li, what do you think this banquet should be done to be grand?" Or let Shang Zhouchao make a splash? ”

"This ...... In the past, banquets were similar to all countries, except for singing and dancing, that is, drinking, how to be grand and high-standard, but also only on the dishes, nothing more than some special ingredients and the like. ”

Sheng Zhiyao nodded: "Well, I think so too, nothing new, does Grandpa Li have a pen and paper?" I have ideas, but I may express them in words, you can't understand them, I draw them for you to see. ”

"Yes, wait a minute, I'll bring it to you."

"Okay."

Li Yuan turned to leave.

Not long after, Li Yuan brought a pen and paper and handed it to Sheng Zhiyao, who drew a rough figure on the paper, and then drew a few detailed drawings.

Li Yuan looked at these pictures and was instantly stunned: "What is this?" How do you eat without a table? ”

"Grandpa Li, you don't understand this, this is called a cocktail party, people can move around at will, the dishes are ready and placed on the table for the guests to take at will, and you can eat whatever you like to avoid unnecessary waste." Sheng Zhiyao explained.

Li Yuan looked at Sheng Zhiyao, his eyes were full of shock, he never thought that such a little girl would know so much.

"Grandpa Li, I've finished drawing all the drawings, you can go and tell the imperial dining room to prepare the dishes on the menu, you can put the hot dishes in the casserole, and put a small stove at the bottom, so that the guests can eat hot dishes at any time, but you need to send someone to watch the stove and the dishes inside, and then prepare some empty plates, I will bring some snacks over." Sheng Zhiyao handed the drawings to Li Yuan and said.

Li Yuan took the drawings and looked at them again, and said with sincere appreciation: "You are indeed a smart girl, I believe that this banquet will definitely shock all the guests, even I have never seen this kind of battle, it is simply amazing." ”

"Grandpa Li praised it, remember to keep everyone secret before the banquet, otherwise the surprise we carefully prepared will be gone."

"No problem, don't worry."

"Okay, I'll go and talk to Grandma Huang about some details now, and you will be responsible for what I just said."

"Okay."

"I'm going, you're busy! I'll be here tomorrow at noon. Sheng Zhiyao ran away with a grin.

Sheng Zhiyao ran back to the queen's dormitory, and as soon as her left foot walked into the room, the queen smiled and said, "I'm back, come and rest." ”

Sheng Zhiyao walked to the chair and sat down, took a sip of water from the teacup, and then looked at the queen: "Grandma Huang, this is the drawing I made, do you think this kind of banquet is satisfied?" ”

When the queen heard this, she took Sheng Zhiyao's drawing paper, looked at the dense small characters and some marked dishes on it, her face showed a smile of relief, she put the drawing paper down, and then took Sheng Zhiyao's hand, and said softly: "Zhiyao, this idea is really good, did you come up with it?" ”

"Of course, I've just decided on the dishes with Master Li."

"Then tell me more about it? Otherwise, I wouldn't know what to do tomorrow. ”

"Okay, Grandma Huang, you drink tea, I'll talk to you slowly."

Sheng Zhiyao told the queen her thoughts, and after the queen heard it, she felt that Sheng Zhiyao's plan was really good, and she also agreed very much: "It's just Zhiyao, what is this cocktail you are talking about?" ”

"It's just a blended wine, it will be amazing, tomorrow the imperial grandmother will taste it herself."

"Good! I'll definitely try it tomorrow. ”

"Then did Grandma Huang agree to my plan?"

"Of course, with such a good plan, I also want them to see how smart and virtuous my future queen of Shang Zhou is."

"Then the imperial grandmother, I will retire first, go back and prepare some things to be used tomorrow, the imperial grandmother, you just ask Rong Mama to help me prepare the things on this list, I will come to set up the venue early tomorrow morning, you have to keep it secret from the imperial grandfather!"

"Okay, I see."

Sheng Zhiyao said goodbye and left, she left the palace in a very good mood, she did not go back to the Hou Mansion directly, but went to Tianxiang Pavilion, Meilan Zhuju was there, she just had something to order.

"Mei'er, I'll go to the room to rest first, I have something to explain later, you four wait for me."

"Yes, miss."

Sheng Zhiyao returned to the room, she quickly closed the door and went back to the villa, she rummaged in the kitchen for the cocktail self-blending set she bought on a whim, she picked up the snow glass and tried to change the tricks in her hand, these are all things she made when she was bored in modern times, she hasn't used it for a long time, but it should be okay to try.

Soon, a cocktail was baked, she put the shaker glass on the table, took out two goblets and poured them full, she sat in the chair, raised the glass and took a sip, it tasted wonderful, but she didn't indulge in it for too long before putting it down.

She cleaned everything out and called Mei Lan Zhuju over.

"I'll teach you four a skill today, and tomorrow you need to go to the banquet to operate."

"Yes, miss." The four of them replied in unison.

Sheng Zhiyao picked up a goblet: "You taste it and watch me do it, you are all skilled people who should learn quickly." ”

After she finished the whole process, she began to explain herself: "You can just practice this as a set of martial arts moves." ”

After speaking, Sheng Zhiyao picked up the pen and wrote down a few common cocktail recipes and handed them to them.

"Then you practice according to this recipe, and that set of moves is to give the guests a good look, and our ultimate goal is to mix wine."

"Yes, miss." Mei Lan Zhuju took the note and memorized the contents carefully.

"Okay, you practice hard, we'll go to the palace tomorrow night to show them, you will be the focus of the audience, if the effect is good, maybe I can consider opening the next store." Sheng Zhiyao looked at the four girls with a smile.

"Yes, miss." The four replied in unison.

"Okay, just don't embarrass me, you guys go down first." Sheng Zhiyao waved them out of the room.

At this time, Hongxue's voice came to his mind: "Master, I have something to report." ”

"Say it."

"Zi Chu is going to ask the emperor for marriage tomorrow night, Feng Yuanqing has been there with the emperor recently, I am worried that he will take advantage of this opportunity, I suggest that you take measures to stop him as soon as possible."

Sheng Zhiyao frowned: "I know, you continue to pay attention to this matter, and also, you go to the palace with me tomorrow night, and tell Feng Yuanchen the news and let him prepare." ”

"Yes." Red Snow retreated.
