Chapter Twenty-Eight: The New God of Cooking
The assistant also has to be tortured by the three generations of his ancestors, and only those who are innocent can enter the palace to participate in the kitchen god competition.
Those who enter the competition must enter through the back door of the palace in naked clothes, and women enter in single clothes to prevent dangerous items from being brought in.
After entering the palace, all the clothes equipped by the palace are uniformly equipped, and those who are so strictly screened can become the first in the world.
The world's delicacies gather at one table, and the indescribable style is gluttonous.
Breakfast, lunch, dinner, best-of-three games.
Each round is voted by secret ballot by tasters, and the backstage staff counts the votes immediately after the dinner. For the sake of fairness and justice, the whole audience will be openly trolled.
After three days, Jiang Jun really bowed to the Eastern Emperor, usually looking at him like a guy, it turned out that the city was so deep, and his mind was also very strong.
The four major countries, and the Donglin country, can engage in such a large-scale scene.
In the evening, everyone ate refreshments in the hall after the dinner and waited for the results.
On the stage in the middle of the hall, the staff was busy counting, and an old eunuch sang loudly about the votes, Zhang Gongming one vote, Li Manman one vote, Li Dewang one vote, and Zhong Quanzhong one vote.....
The diners in the audience were discussing, "There are a lot of newcomers this year, and they are quite young." ”
"And the cook?"
"Look at her very young, someone recommends her at such a young age?"
"I heard that this was recommended by a royal nobleman."
"Oh, so powerful?"
......
Jiang Jun listened to everyone's discussions, and suddenly became interested, "Who is Li Manman, I feel that the votes between her and Chef Wang are quite close." ”
"She is the new chef of Longfeng Building, and her cooking skills are good."
"How do you know?" Jiang Jun asked Mu Xi suspiciously, "When did you go to steal food?" ”
Mu Xi waved his hand again and again and explained: "I didn't steal food, general, the last time we all went shopping together, you asked me to accompany the West Prince to Longfeng Tower, did you forget?" ”
"Yes, I took her to taste it that day."
The corners of Xi Cheng's mouth smiled, "Her cooking skills are indeed very good." ”
"Oh, I'm just curious, just kidding, look at what scares you."
Jiang Jun teased Mu Xi with a hippie smile, it was rare for Xiaoxi to praise other cooks, and he suddenly became interested in Li Manman.
Jiang Jun looked at the cooks who were sitting in front of the stage nervously waiting for the results, and the only cook, Li Manman, was particularly conspicuous when she sat in the middle.
In his early twenties, he wore centipede braids competently, his face was neat and refreshing, the corners of his mouth were slightly smiling, he was calmly waiting for the results, his demeanor was elegant, and his whole body gave people a comfortable feeling.
Jiang Jun looked very pleasing to the eye, and said, "A very delicate little girl, who recommended her with such a shallow qualification?" ”
"I recommend it."
"I wondered if it was you, it was really you, Konishi."
Jiang Jun curled the corners of his mouth gossipsily, "It's really unusual to be able to get the favor of the Western Prince, tell me honestly, what is your relationship?" ”
"It doesn't matter, it's just a few times after eating her."
"What else?" Jiang Jun continued to dig deeper.
"The things she cooked tasted special, just right, and gave a feeling of comfort." Xi Cheng looked at Jiang Jun, who was gossiping.
"Keep talking, you can't stop until you finish speaking."
Then I asked her how she did it, and she said it was her ancestral secret ingredient and her passion for cooking.
"She's a person who really loves to cook and was born to cook." Xi Cheng said, the corners of his mouth involuntarily curved, and his eyes were full of appreciation.
"Oh, I like to cook by nature, it's not the same as you, you are really compatible, handsome men and beautiful women, and like-minded."
Jiang Jun leaned closer to Xi Cheng and quipped as if he had discovered the truth.
"General, what nonsense, there is no such thing."
"Why not, there must be more details that haven't been said, I saw what you just saw."
"No, General, you've learned so much lately, do you even want to be a matchmaker? Random mandarin duck spectrum. ”
What? Say I'm a matchmaker, is there such a beautiful matchmaker! Jiang Jun pouted: "I care about you, we are a family, so do you dare to swear that you don't like her at all?" ”
"General, you're so bored."
"Look, your heart is empty."
Jiang Jun continued to gossip and laugh, and asked Xi Cheng unrelentingly, until the eunuch who sang the ticket shouted: "The results are out, everyone be quiet." ”
Mu Xi said: "General, the results are about to be announced." ”
Xi Cheng also reminded: "General, don't make trouble, see the result." ”
"Who is it, can Chef Wang be re-elected?"
"I haven't said it yet, the result is in the hands of Master Meng."
Master Meng, as the scrutineer of this time, has been seriously supervising on the stage, and after getting the results, he solemnly accepted the eyes of the Eastern Emperor.
When the Eastern Emperor saw the result, he turned sideways to look at the Queen Mother, and the two exchanged a few words softly, with a meaningful smile in their eyes.
After a while, it was returned to Lord Meng and announced.
Master Meng had always had a serious face, and his face was always unwavering, and everyone couldn't read any useful information from his expression.
They all waited quietly for him to announce the results, for fear that they had heard it wrong.
Master Meng opened the scroll and read word by word: "This year's culinary champion winner: Li Manman of Longfeng Building." ”
Immediately, the audience applauded thunder, mixed with surprise, and filled the entire banquet hall.
"Wow, Li Manman is so powerful, young and promising."
"She's not an ordinary woman, she deserves this title." West Chengying Road.
"Oops! You know that. Jiang Jun was still gossiping and looked at Xi Cheng.
Xi Cheng's face was slightly red, and he looked at the stage without Jiang Jun's eyes.
Li Manman walked onto the stage calmly and looked back at Xicheng with a smile.
Xicheng nodded and responded with a smile.
Immediately, Li Manman said a word of thanks quite graciously, and thanked Chef Wang for accepting and showing mercy to his subordinates.
Chef Wang failed to win the championship again, which is a bit disappointed.
But seeing that Li Manman was so sensible and personable, and gave him a step down, Chef Wang also said a few words generously.
Donghuang was quite satisfied with Li Manman's attitude, and couldn't help but praise: "Chef Li, young and promising, terrifying in later life, and quite virtuous, is the convincing of my country." ”
Donghuang's praise flattered Li Manman.
Then he responded sensibly: "The Eastern Emperor governs the country in a good way, the country is peaceful in the world, the Queen Mother has no borders, the Queen Mother is the world, and I will bless the prosperity of the Donglin Kingdom, so that the little woman can have the opportunity to show her strength today." ”
After some rhetoric, the praised Eastern Emperor, the Queen Mother, and the Empress Dowager had a good impression of Li Manman.
"Unexpectedly, Li Manman has good cooking skills and a sweet mouth." Jiang Jun was even more impressed by Li Manman.
Finally, in the official closing speech of Lord Meng, today's Chef God Contest ended perfectly, and Donghuang wrote the world's first plaque to the new chef Li Manman.
The three-day birthday banquet will also come to an end in this successful competition, and everyone respectfully gets up to listen to Donghuang's closing speech.
At this moment, Yan Bing hurriedly walked to the side of the Eastern Emperor and whispered a few words in his ear.
Donghuang's originally smiling and kind face suddenly became solemn, and he turned his head sideways and said a few words to his personal eunuch Zhang Gonggong.
Immediately, with the Queen Mother and the Empress, the frightened Yan Bingchao suddenly withdrew.
Father-in-law Zhang, who was smiling, said to everyone: "The emperor has something to deal with, everyone wait a little bit." ”
The guests didn't think much about it, sat down obediently, and chatted with great interest about the popularity of this competition, but they didn't expect the young Li Manman to win the championship.
After Zhang Gonggong finished announcing, he walked to Jiang Jun and whispered that he had something to report.
When Jiang Jun and his party followed Gonggong Zhang out of the door, the Praetorian Guards, who were waiting at the door at some point, poured into the hall under the leadership of Deputy Commander Chen Yan to surround everyone.
The guests looked at each other, not knowing why.
Then the whole department was locked up, and after a while, Jiang Jun heard a noise inside.
Gonggong Zhang glanced at Beixing Hao, and said to Jiang Jun and Li Ran: "General, military advisor, take a step to speak." ”
Jiang Jun and Li Ran followed Gonggong Zhang five or six meters away before whispering to Jiang Jun and Li Ran about something that made Donghuang anxious.
When Jiang Jun heard this, he was also so frightened that he couldn't understand it, and glanced at Beixinghao not far away with regret and sadness.
The noble and rare Lychee Yao was killed, what an unbelievable episode, how could a good county lord be killed?
