Xiao Er glanced inside, quickly reacted to what he was going to ask, and replied with a smile.

I see.

The brocade-clothed man nodded, and walked back to his room.

Xiao Er stood in his eyes, looking at his back with some doubts, his brows furrowed slightly.

This son's face is too clean, and he doesn't even have a stubble.

But he didn't think much about it, and just hurried to the side to help order.

The door of the Tianzi room on the second floor suddenly rang.

"What the hell is going on, why is this dish so late? With such a large scale of this restaurant, it is definitely not going to make such a low-level mistake, right? The yellow-clothed emperor looked at him with a frown, a little dissatisfied in his heart.

He was rarely interested in going out of the palace to have a game, but he didn't expect that he wouldn't even be able to eat dinner.

"Back to the emperor, I heard that the chef of this restaurant and a girl brought by their shopkeeper from outside to try their cooking skills, the little one looked at it twice, this scene is really lively, or the emperor will also go with the small one to see?"

Gonggong Chen smiled and stepped forward, "Since the emperor is out to play, it is not good to sit here, it is better to go down with the little one, if that girl is really young and has excellent cooking skills, the emperor can summon her to the palace." ”

This...... There is also some truth.

The emperor nodded and asked Gonggong Chen to help him down.

The competition in the kitchen had reached the most critical step, Cheng Shuiyao and Long Jiu stood quietly aside, watching the others try these dishes one by one, and their expressions did not waver.

"This fresh bamboo shoot chicken soup looks light, but it tastes very refreshing, and the bamboo shoots are crispy and the chicken is tender, it looks like the heat is well controlled."

"This plate of mixed vegetables is a must, it doesn't look special, but it tastes very different from the usual, maybe some special sauce is added, right?"

"Come and try this, eating sweet and sour short ribs is really full of color, flavor and flavor, I just ate one, and now I can't stop."

“……”

The other chefs in charge of the tasting tried it one by one, and the exclamations came and went.

Long Jiu felt that he had a chance to win, so he turned his head and glanced at Cheng Shuiyao, but to his surprise, Cheng Shuiyao's face was pale and he didn't look worried.

is still strong, and you will look good later.

Long Jiu snorted and turned his gaze back to the dishes.

"Wait, come and eat this dish!"

A surprise voice suddenly sounded, everyone was curious, but they only saw a plate of ordinary boiled cabbage in front of them.

"What's so delicious about boiled cabbage? You're too fuss-free, aren't you? The other man spoke disdainfully, and turned his head to eat something else.

"Don't look at this dish as plain, but when you taste it, you feel that this dish has an endless aftertaste!"

The person who spoke first shook his head and handed a bite of food to the people next to him.

The man was a little puzzled at first, but as he ate it, he realized that although the dish looked bland, it tasted rich.

The rest of the people will be suspicious, but as long as they have eaten this dish, they are all amazed.

"It looks like the outcome has been decided," Cheng Shuiyao tilted her head and smiled at Long Jiu.

Long Jiu secretly clenched his fists and didn't answer her, just snorted coldly.

Soon, the tasting event was over.

"Whoever you like to cook, just stand behind him," Duan Ran said with a smile, just by the reaction of that group of people, he knew that Cheng Shuiyao would definitely win this time, and the worries in his heart had long been thrown out of the clouds.

Sure enough, a group of people quickly stood behind Cheng Shuiyao, but behind Long Jiu was empty, without half a figure.

"It looks like the winner has been decided, Long Jiu, what else do you have to say?" Duan Ran raised his head, and his expression became a little colder.

She respects Long Jiu's talent and doesn't care about his temper, but it doesn't mean that she will tolerate this person's presumptuous second time for no reason, if Long Jiu finds fault again, she doesn't mind letting him find another way out.

Long Jiu's expression was a little embarrassed, and without saying a word, he walked to the boiled greens, bent down and took a sip of the soup.

"It's got matsutake mushrooms, bamboo shoots, and ......."

Long Jiu frowned, a little unsure.

"There is also a broth boiled with ingredients such as suckling pigeons, hens, etc., this broth is mellow, the bamboo shoots are fresh, and the aftertaste is endless, and I specially chose the tender ones, which taste crispy and crispy, enriching the level of this dish."

Cheng Shuiyao saw that he hesitated, so he took the initiative to answer his doubts.

No wonder.

Long Jiu nodded, and had to admit that Cheng Shuiyao's cooking skills were higher than his own.

"Do you guys have any other opinions?" Cheng Shuiyao saw that Long Jiu no longer spoke, so he didn't plan to embarrass him, and turned his head to look at the others.

The others shook their heads, not having the slightest opinion on this.

Even Long Jiu is not Cheng Shuiyao's opponent, how dare they make a mistake?

Cheng Shuiyao nodded, and then spoke, "Then I will point out the deficiencies in the dishes you make one by one, and you must correct them." ”

"Yes!"

Everyone answered in unison, and they were very happy to get Cheng Shuiyao's guidance.

Cheng Shuiyao did not delay any longer, and began to teach one by one.

Xiao Ji smiled in his eyes, didn't say anything, and planned to turn around and leave the kitchen.

But as soon as he turned around, he saw a familiar figure.

Emperor?

Xiao Ji frowned and hurriedly saluted.

"This is outside, the general doesn't have to be so polite," Gonggong Chen hurriedly ran over and pulled him up and gave him a look.

This time, the emperor traveled in micro-clothes, and naturally the more low-key the better.

"Yes," Xiao Ji also understood how powerful this was, and no longer stubbornly saluted, but just walked up to the emperor.

"If I'm not mistaken, that girl is your wife, right?" The emperor didn't put on any emperor stands, smiled kindly, and spoke at him.

"Indeed," Xiao Ji nodded, with a faint pride in her expression, "Yao'er is very proficient in cooking, and after living for so many years, she can be regarded as having seen a lot of cooks, but there is no one who can cook as well as my wife." ”

"Look at you, you're about to blow your wife into the sky," the emperor smiled and pointed in the direction of the kitchen, "I haven't eaten yet, since you say that your wife is a good cook, let her cook me a good meal." ”

"Yes," Xiao Ji nodded hurriedly and walked to the kitchen.

Cheng Shuiyao finished teaching the last cook, and just as he was about to leave, he saw Xiao Ji walking towards him.

"The emperor is here, I heard that you are good at cooking, and asked you to help him cook a table of meals, you can cook it quickly!"

Xiao Ji turned sideways slightly, casually glanced at the emperor outside, and handed Cheng Shuiyao a look.
