Chef Mad Queen

Chapter 640 Unexpected result of the competition

"The ingredient I added is called sea bluegrass, which is a kind of medicinal material. It not only has the effect of removing fishy smell, but also perfectly blends the sour and sweet tastes in the ingredients, and also has the medicinal value of appetizing and strengthening the spleen. !” Feng Qian replied.

"Sea bluegrass?" Venerable Qinglian suddenly realized, and nodded again and again, "Yes, it tastes like sea bluegrass! It's just that I never expected that you would be so creative that you dare to add medicinal materials to your dishes! You must know that the properties of medicinal materials are very important. It's complicated, and if you're not careful, it will backfire, at a small scale, it will destroy the taste of the ingredients, at a high scale, once the properties of the medicinal materials and the ingredients are incompatible, it will make the eater vomit and diarrhea!"

Feng Qian replied: "So, before using Sea Orchid Grass, I carefully considered and used Sea Orchid Grass cautiously after excluding all possible problems."

The old lady was surprised: "You added sea bluegrass to the dish? I didn't taste it, I am ashamed!"

"Adding herbs to the dishes? Isn't that equivalent to cheating?" Murong Yan deliberately picked on the thorns.

Xuanyuanche said coldly: "His Royal Highness Ling Wang is so rare and strange! Since ancient times, there has been talk about medicinal food and medicinal wine. Is it because of the addition of medicinal materials that dishes are no longer dishes?"

Murong Yan was momentarily at a loss for words.

After Xuanyuan Che, Murong Yan, and Feng Cang finished tasting two dishes each, the five officially voted.

Without any suspense, Xuanyuan Che and Murong Yan each voted for Feng Qian and Leng Xian'er, and they each got one vote, temporarily tied.

Then it's Feng Cang's turn to vote...

Feng Cang is an old fox, he weighs in his heart, he doesn't want to offend the king, nor does he want to offend Venerable Qinglian, the former decides his official career, and the latter gives him unlimited hope for development outside Beiyan Kingdom, Therefore, no matter who it is, he is unwilling to offend!

After thinking about it, he had already made a decision in his heart.

"In my opinion, the two dishes made by Qian'er and Xian'er are excellent, and they are indistinguishable! As their father, I can't be partial, I must respect the facts, so I decided to abstain from voting!"

Everyone was in an uproar, no one expected that he would make such an unexpected decision!

If he abstains from voting, then the right to speak on the final result will fall on the old lady and Venerable Qinglian.

How will they vote?

Everyone was very curious.

The old lady took the lead and said: "Honor Qinglian, you come first!"

Venerable Qinglian shook his head: "The longevity is the biggest, so you should come first!"

The old lady humbly said: "You are a distinguished guest, or you come first!"

Venerable Qinglian shook his head resolutely: "No, you should come first!"

Seeing this, the old lady no longer hesitated, thinking for a moment and said: "From the perspective of the quality of the two dishes, Xian'er is superior in ingredients and knife skills, and Qian'er is superior in seasoning and creativity. It can be said that the two are evenly matched in cooking skills. , the attainments are very deep, the old man is very pleased. If you have to vote among the two, choose the better one..."

She paused, took a deep breath, and said, "Sorry, I can't choose! So, I also decided to abstain!"

There was another uproar at the scene.

After Feng Xiang abstained, the old lady abstained again, pushing the result of the competition in favor of Leng Xian'er!
Obviously, Venerable Qinglian, as Leng Xian'er's master, would naturally vote for Leng Xian'er, that is to say, Feng Qian has already lost!

The old lady looked at Feng Qian apologetically, which violated her original intention of passing jade to Feng Qian, but she didn't want to vote for her against her conscience, so she had no choice but to abstain.

Feng Qian was not angry or discouraged. She admitted that her cooking skills were slightly inferior to Leng Xian'er. Even if the old lady voted for Leng Xian'er, she would have nothing to say. flew.

However, there should be other ways, right?
When Murong Yan heard that the old lady had abstained from voting, he smiled complacently: "The old lady is highly respected, she handles things fairly, and does not show favoritism. This king admires you!"

He cupped his hands towards the old lady, and said: "Since the result has been decided, please tell the old lady to pass the unicorn blood jade to Miss Xian'er as soon as possible!"

Feng Qian gave a bitter smile, the ending was set, and there was no way she could turn back.

While thinking, Xuanyuanche secretly held her hand, his eyes comforting silently.

Feng Qian smiled back and shook his hand back, feeling his strength and warmth.

Although I lost this battle, it doesn't matter, I can always think of other ways!

Seeing that the result of the competition has been decided, the guests congratulated Leng Xian'er one after another.

"Miss Xian'er, congratulations!"

"Miss Xian'er is really young and promising!"

"Congratulations to Miss Xian'er for getting the inheritance right of Qilin Blood Jade!"

Everyone said something to me, Leng Xian'er was calm on the surface, but also happy in her heart, and thanked everyone one after another.

"Thank you for your encouragement! I will continue to work hard!"

At this moment, Venerable Qinglian suddenly spoke: "I haven't cast my vote yet, so it's too early for you to say congratulations!"

The surroundings immediately fell silent, everyone looked at her in surprise, and heard her continue: "Since it is a cooking competition, the competition is the comprehensive ability of a spirit chef when handling dishes! The so-called comprehensive ability does not only include cooking skills , but more in the intentions of the cooks!"

The more people listened, the more confused they became.

"Xian'er's culinary skills are outstanding, but she lacks innovation. Compared with her previous performance, today's performance can only be described as mediocre! As a second-level spiritual chef, Queen Feng's culinary skills are far from perfect." It surpassed the scope of a second-level spiritual chef, which gave the deity a great surprise! What surprised the deity even more was that she was able to break out of the traditional practice of squirrel mandarin fish and subtly integrate medicinal materials into it, creating a bold and innovative The taste is very creative and courageous, this deity appreciates it very much! Therefore, this deity's final decision is..."

Everyone's heartstrings were tensed all of a sudden, and their curiosity was fully suspended.

Finally, Venerable Qinglian announced: "Abstain from voting!"

The place was silent.

Silent!

Everyone seems to have not reacted, or it was too late to react.

Abstain?

Another abstention?

After Fengxiang and the old lady, this is the third abstention!

It also means that this culinary competition between Feng Qian and Leng Xian'er ended in a draw!

No one wins and no one loses!

This is the ending that no one expected!

Leng Xian'er looked at Venerable Qinglian in surprise, and couldn't believe that the proud master would abstain from voting. Shouldn't she hope that she won?

She was a little bewildered.

Feng Qian was more confused than she was. She never expected that Venerable Qinglian would choose to abstain from voting!

In her eyes, Venerable Qinglian is domineering, overbearing, and very defensive. It is impossible for her to admit that her apprentice is inferior.

But this is not the case!

She couldn't help but look at Venerable Qinglian differently.

At the same time, because of her abstaining from votes, her defeat was suddenly reversed, neither win nor lose!
Murong Yan was in a hurry, and couldn't help saying: "Honor Qinglian, are you sure you want to abstain? Did you know that once you choose to abstain, the match will be a draw?"

"Of course I know!" Venerable Qinglian's complexion darkened, and he said displeasedly, "What? Is His Highness King Ling going to teach me how to behave?"

Murong Yan saw that she was showing signs of getting angry, so he quickly gave in: "Don't dare! This junior doesn't dare!"
