Chapter 102: Above the Imperial Banquet (2)

Next, two more dishes were served, and Biyu ate it again, not only Biyu, but everyone present was also full of praise for Xiao Mo's cooking skills, saying that his delicacies were really not in vain, but the simple ingredients were so delicious. Compared with those mountain and sea delicacies, water and land treasures used by the Taiguan Administration, it is obviously a step higher.

The last dish is steamed pork. At this time, Biyu had already burped a few times in a row, and he had never eaten so full. Halfway through this plate of steamed porpoise, I really couldn't eat it.

At this time, I heard someone talking next to me, and when I looked at it, it turned out to be Wang Yan and Wang Cheng. Although the Langya Wang family comes from the same family, there is also a difference in status. Wang Rong is the oldest, the most senior, and the highest official position, so his seat is at the front, and Wang Dun, as a colt, is also at the front; Wang Yan and Wang Cheng have not yet appeared, so they are ranked low.

Wang Cheng said: "These dishes of the Treasure Department are really delicious in the world, you and I are usually tired of eating such ordinary ingredients, and I can't stop eating them today." ”

Wang Yan nodded and said, "Well, it's really good." But nothing else is especially good, but when it comes to steamed porpoise, I only serve the king's family. ”

"Wang Shizhong? Are you talking about Wang Ji Wang Wuzi? ”

"Of course, who else is it?"

At this time, Wang Ji was also in the banquet, he was the one who gambled with Wang Kai with 10 million and a half baht to shoot arrows, killed Wang Kai's treasure cow, and ate the heart of the cow. Wang Ji, Wang Kai and Shi Chong were the three richest people at that time and liked to fight for wealth the most. Wang Ji is a servant and a concubine of the first emperor, so his position is higher.

"What, what's so special about his steamed porpoise? Will it be better than the cooking skills of the Treasures Department? ”

Wang Yan shook his head and said with a smile: "His family's steamed pork is not high in cooking, but from the special features of the suckling pig itself. ”

"The pigs themselves?"

"Hmm. When his suckling pigs are thirsty, they do not give water to drink, but feed human milk. ”

"Breastfeeding?" Shu Yan and Xiao Mo almost dropped their jaws when they heard it next to them, and even Biyu, who was born in a wealthy family, was secretly surprised.

At this time, Wang Yan saw that the people around him were surprised, so he lowered his voice and said: "I once ate it at his house, and that kind of taste can't be made no matter how superb your cooking skills are." ”

Wang Cheng said: "Isn't it too extravagant and ridiculous to feed human milk to pigs?" ”

"So, our majesty went to his house for dinner, and the king served him with steamed porpoise fed with human milk, and the emperor felt that the taste was different, so he asked the reason, Wang Ji was truthful, and His Majesty was so angry that he threw his sleeves away."

Biyu listened to this strange talk and thought: My Shi family can be regarded as Zhong Mingding's food, but compared with people like Wang Ji, it is still far behind. Even the emperor felt that it was ridiculous and excessive, but he felt envious.

At this point in the banquet, the ministers have already accompanied the emperor to drink several rounds of wine. There are also many people who are good at singing hymns and greatly praise the prosperity of today. As soon as Sima Yan was happy, he said: "I'm happy today, just drinking liquor is not enough to enjoy - come here, bring the barrel of wine that Dawan Kingdom paid tribute to." ”

Suddenly, Ye Qing, the wine of the Liangjiu Department, led the four people to carry up a large wooden barrel. Sima Yan ordered the sealed wine barrel to be opened and distributed to all those present.

Of course, the order of wine division is still from high to low. Fortunately, when I got to Biyu and Shu Yan, there was really a little left. Biyu had drunk wine, but Shu Yan hadn't drunk it, he looked at the purple-red and purple-red liquid in the cup, and said, "Foreigners are really careless, why haven't the lees been cleaned up of the wine used for tribute?" ”

Biyu said: "Don't be stupid, that's the leftover wine base for us." ”

Xiao Mo also looked at the wine in his glass and said, "It's okay, wine is like this, it doesn't affect the taste at all." ”

Biyu listened with contempt and said: "Yoyo, when I listen to you, I seem to understand very well." ”

"Of course I know better than you, although I don't know how to make wine, but my grandmother is from Dawan, so I know a little bit about it."

As for wine, Shu Yan had heard of it, but had never drunk it. If he was given such a cup of such a dark color and muddy thing for him to drink out of thin air, he would definitely not dare to drink it, but at this time, he believed Xiao Mo's words, smelled it, and felt refreshed, and he was relieved. At this time, Sima Yan saw that everyone had filled the wine, so he ordered everyone to raise a glass together, and Shu Yan and the three of them picked up the wine glass and drank it all with everyone. Shu Yan drank the wine, and there was still a sweet fruity aroma in his mouth, which was very different from the liquor he had just drunk, and he casually praised it in his mouth: "Wonderful." ”

just casually praised it, but it made Xiao Bai real. "What, you like to drink this wine?"

Shu Yan replied noncommittally and casually: "There is too little wine, there is no more." ”

She heard Shu Yan's praise and guessed that Shu Yan must like to drink wine, but he couldn't get enough of it, and wanted to drink it, but he didn't. Suddenly, a big idea suddenly occurred in her heart: she wanted to go home once.

At today's banquet, many people were drunk. For example, Wei Qiang, except for the people of the royal Sima family, belongs to his highest title, belongs to the county duke level, and the official position is also ranked as the third duke, so he is closest to the emperor. As the saying goes: spit out the truth after drinking, and mess up after drinking. Wei Qian is old, so he is naturally not strong enough to drink, and he is still an upright and loyal minister. He watched the people of the imperial relatives Yang Party and Jia Party becoming more and more domineering, and remembered that Sima You, the king of Qi, was excluded from the core of the imperial court, the old emperor's health declined, and the stupid prince's intelligence did not grow in the slightest, so he was very worried about the future of the Great Jin.

With the strength of the wine, he walked to Sima Yan's seat and knelt down, and said with emotion: "The minister has something to say." ”

Sima Yan asked, "What does the public want to say?" ”

Wei Qian opened his mouth, wanting to persuade the emperor again: The crown prince Sima Zhen is not suitable to inherit the throne, and he should choose someone else. But when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed them back, as if he had some concerns. After that, I couldn't help but say it again, but I still didn't say it, and I repeated it three times. In the end, he still didn't say it clearly, but just patted the emperor's throne with his hand and said, "It's a pity for this seat." ”

Of course, Sima Yan understood what he meant, but in front of everyone, he couldn't say anything, so he only said, "Gong Wei, you're really drunk." ”

When Wei Qian heard this, he felt that there was no need to say any more, so he retreated drunk. As soon as Wei Qian said this, his political enemies Yang Party and Jia Party also understood the meaning of his words, and since then they have laid the root cause for him, and later almost ended up in ruin.

After the banquet, Xiao Mo was walking back with his head down, and suddenly someone patted him on the shoulder, and when he looked back, it was the seventeenth princess. She was thinking about her thoughts, and was taken aback, so she said angrily: "Can you be more respectful, you princess, what do you look like to slap a man?" ”

After hearing this, the seventeenth princess smiled and said, "Man? What kind of man are you, just a little eunuch, I have been used to serving you little eunuchs since I was a child, am I still afraid of you? ”

Xiao Mo drank some wine, her straightforwardness came up again, and she said heartlessly: "Aren't you afraid that I'm a fake eunuch?" After saying this, Xiao Mo suddenly felt speechless, and his heart immediately jumped up, secretly eager to slap himself a few times, and scolded in his heart: Bad thing, this broken mouth.

Xiao Mo was regretting her words, but the seventeenth princess didn't notice it at all, "Fake eunuch? How could there be a fake eunuch in the palace, unless he didn't want the life of his whole family. She looked at Xiao Mo, who was nervous, but smiled even more happily, "Look at your appearance, this body and demeanor, you are more eunuch than a real eunuch, how can it be fake?" Then again, if only you were a fake eunuch. ”

"Huh? What do you mean by that? ”

"Uh......" Princess Seventeen lowered her head and said shyly, "if you were a false eunuch, I would choose you to be a colt!" ”

……

I'm just a fake eunuch, but not the fake law you think. I'm the same as you, the same spring girl.

Xiao Mo was speechless to the extreme, but when he thought that the princess didn't care much about herself, she also let go.

After the seventeenth princess said this, she also felt quite embarrassed, so she found a way to diverge the conversation and said, "You sat with two teenagers at the banquet, who are they?" Is there that Shang Shulang who lives with you in Shang Shutai? ”

Xiao Mo didn't answer, but wanted to tease this girl who was just starting to fall in love, so he smiled: "What do you say about those two teenagers?" ”

The seventeenth princess thought for a while and said, "Well, they are all very good, handsome, and elegant. ”

"If you had to choose one to be a colt, which would you choose?"

"Xiao Mo, how dare you joke about Princess Ben." The seventeenth princess pouted.

"What are you afraid of, now you know that you are shy? I don't know who just said that they want to choose a colt! ”

"Humph! This is different from just now, the reason why I am willing to say that to you is because you will never be a colt, so you dare to make such a joke. ”

Xiao Mo also snorted, and continued to force her to comply: "I still have a copy of the steamed pork and mutton stewed radish I made, if you don't say it, I'll give it to others!" ”

Maybe it's because she can't resist the temptation of food, or maybe it's because she treats Xiao Mo as a good friend who talks about everything, the seventeenth princess thought for a while, and then compromised: "I said, you are not allowed to talk about it." ”

"Of course." While the seventeenth princess was thinking about it, Xiao Mo was also guessing who she would choose.

"The One Who Sits at the Bottom......"

Choose Brother Shu? Xiao Mo chuckled in her heart, knowing that the other party was joking with her, but she still had a sour feeling in her heart inexplicably.

"The person sitting at the end, although he is generous and magnificent, but he lacks a bit of romantic charm; The person sitting next to him, although slightly weak, but his demeanor is graceful, his words and deeds are free, and he is a model of today's popular family sons. ”

"You mean, like that boy? Your vision is so good, he is really the son of a family. His surname is Shi, and I'll tell you his name......"

"Enough Xiao Mo, we're just joking, if you keep talking, it's too much!" With that, the seventeenth princess walked away angrily.

Although the seventeenth princess was forced to say it reluctantly by herself, she seemed to prefer a little more than jade. Xiao Mo looked at her back and thought to herself: I like Brother Shu like that, and some people prefer it like Yu. The eyes of the world are really different, and the so-called radish greens have their own love.
