Ren Baqian arched his hand at several stewards, and called a few handymen to move a cart of ice cubes first, and followed a few guards into the palace.

There is a place at the palace gate that is connected to the beast garden, and after checking the ice cubes and several people, I put the people inside.

The last time Ren Baqian came, he was full of thoughts about how to save his life, and he didn't have much heart to look around.

I was much more relaxed when I came this time.

In general, Da Yao's buildings are very rough, most of the palaces are stone buildings, and some simple carvings show Da Yao's rugged nature, but Ren Baqian is very interesting to watch.

After all, there are too many exquisite garden earths, and this kind of rough and exotic style makes him feel fresh.

When he arrived at a palace, several people waited outside, and the guards who had warned him to go in and report it.

Not long after, the guard came out and waved at everyone: "Send the ice in." ”

He said to Ren Baqian: "Come with me." ”

After leaving the crowd, the guard said to Ren Baqian: "Your Majesty asked you to cook some exotic food." Do it well. ”

"Thank you!" Ren 8000 arched his hand. "What do you call a brother?"

"The surname is Shi, just call me Shi Hu. The guard laughed.

"Brother Shi Hu and Steward Shi are from this family?" Ren Baqian said curiously.

"A stockade came out. ”

The two chatted for a few words, and Ren Baqian heard something: "Who else is there in this palace besides Your Majesty? I don't see a few people all the way." ”

"There are also some maids and handymen, and then we guards. Shi Hu said.

Ren Baqian was slightly surprised that there were no eunuchs in this world.

After walking for more than ten minutes, I came to a small courtyard, where dozens of people were busy.

This is the imperial dining room of the imperial palace here, which is responsible for the emperor's food. If there is anyone else in the royal family, it is also in charge here.

And the food and drink of the guards and handymen and waitresses is the responsibility of other places.

The steward of the imperial dining room is a tall fat man, I don't know if all the cooks are like this, but most of them are.

In particular, the chefs here have to study various dishes and try all kinds of things every day, and it seems that they have to eat the same thing, and it seems that they have become fatter.

"Hook steward, this is the steward of the beast garden, Your Majesty has a bad appetite today, let him cook some exotic food. Shi Hu introduced to the steward of the imperial dining room.

As soon as he heard this, the fat man's face was obviously a little unhappy, and he immediately attacked: "When is it the turn of the people of the Animal Garden to cook? Who is this going to eat?"

"Take care of things, be careful. Shi Hu said in a deep voice.

Only then did the steward react to his words, which seemed to be suspected of scolding His Majesty, and hurriedly said, "Unintentional words." Don't blame this one. ”

"The weather has been hot for the past two days, Your Majesty has a poor appetite, and I haven't eaten much for lunch today. Shi Hu continued.

"It's my fault!" said the Hook Keeper with a bowed head. In any case, His Majesty didn't eat much, and it must be the fault of the Imperial Dining Room. As for whether the weather is hot or not, I don't use this to make a reason.

"This steward is from outside, and he is also proficient in cooking, so His Majesty asked him to cook some exotic food. ”

"The Imperial Dining Room is commanded. "Hook up and clench your fists.

Then he said to Ren Baqian: "Come here, just say anything." I'll see what kind of exotic food you make. ”

It can be seen that although he responded verbally, the resentment in his heart is not light. After all, the Imperial Dining Room is his territory, and the chefs in the Imperial Dining Room have absolute confidence in their craft.

If the chef from somewhere shows off his cooking skills, maybe he will be willing to see and learn.

But a steward of the beast garden came to cook for the emperor, and they couldn't feel comfortable in their hearts.

Ren Baqian saw that he didn't quibble at all, and directly admitted his mistakes, which was not bad for his senses. But the other party doesn't want to see him, and he doesn't need to have a good relationship with him.

All you need to do is make something to satisfy the empress.

The Imperial Dining Room is mainly a large room inside, and there are two smaller rooms next to it.

Ren Baqian entered the largest room and took a look, there were all kinds of vegetables that he had never seen before, and there was a lot of meat next to it.

The first thing Ren Baqian paid attention to was the seasoning.

I tasted them one by one, salt, brown sugar, a sweet and sour kernel, soy sauce, vinegar, a spicy fruit, a ginger-like rhizome, and a jar of meat sauce with a strange taste, and that was all the spices in the Imperial Dining Room.

There is more scarcity than Ren Baqian thought, and there is much scarcity.

It is estimated that there are more condiments in any ordinary person in Huaguo than this.

In this way, the cooks in the imperial dining room still looked at Ren Baqian quite arrogantly, to see what he could make.

Ren Baqian prides himself on his average cooking skills, and he definitely can't make anything good with these things.

As for all relying on the material and taste of the ingredients themselves, Ren Baqian doesn't even know the ingredients here, what can he do?

"How about it, what are you going to do?" Hook Steward leaned on his tall head and looked down at Ren Baqiandao.

Ren Baqian was slightly disappointed: "Just a few things, it's not enough to make a fried sauce noodle." ”

As soon as the steward heard this, he became angry on the spot: "The whole world is full of these things, and the palaces of Great Xia and Yun Kingdom Chen are also these. If your own level is not good, don't find fault with our incomplete things. ”

Ren Baqian grinned, his own craftsmanship is not very good, but if this thing is all his own choices, he will have more choices.

And the Great Xia and the Chen Kingdom Palace of the Yun Kingdom also have these things? Ren Baqian really didn't believe it.

How do you know what seasonings are available in other countries' palaces?

Moreover, I heard that there are still countries in the west of Great Xia and in the south of Chen. Maybe these countries will be able to get some spice from elsewhere.

Although Ren Baqian didn't speak, the noncommittal expression on his face made him choke enough.

The people from your beast garden came to the imperial dining room to cook for His Majesty, and they still think that we don't have all this stuff? It's just too annoying.

You have the ability to take care of this imperial dining room.

The steward forcibly suppressed his anger and said coldly: "What do you want?"

Ren Baqian shook his head slightly, he naturally saw the unhappiness of colluding with things. But you're not all about it, it's just too little.

Seeing him collude like this, he was even more angry: "What do you want? As long as you have it, I can find it for you." If not, let's be honest that you're not good at cooking, and go back to the Beast Garden. ”

"Is there monosodium glutamate? Sichuan pepper, is there big material, is cumin there? sesame paste, is there pepper, is there cinnamon......" Ren Baqian counted seven or eight kinds with his fingers, then looked up and asked: "Do you have these?" ”

Hook Guan was stunned in advance, thought for a long time, and asked Ren Baqian: "What is it?"

Ren Baqian roughly described the taste of peppercorns, and the steward was furious after hearing this: "Are you fooling me? If it weren't for His Majesty waiting for you today, I would have beaten you out. ”

"That's why you're not all about it. Ren Baqian still shook his head, your knowledge is really short, I am not wrong, and I will directly blow up the collusion matter.

"You take those things out and see if they're really what you said, or I'll be done with you. Even if I sue Your Majesty, I won't give up with you. The hook steward said in a loud voice, and directly shook the roof to dust.

The other cooks in the imperial dining room also followed suit

"Where did you come from talking nonsense there? Don't rely on His Majesty to ask you to come over, just point fingers at the imperial dining room. ”

"There's nothing you said you were talking about. ”

"Nonsense came to the imperial dining room, and I don't look at what the people here do every day. ”

"The people in the beast garden can also cook?"

The grumpy even scolded the three-character scripture.

What Ren Baqian said, these people had never heard of it at all, so they naturally thought it was nonsense. Coupled with his disapproving expression, it was really hateful.
