Chapter 186 You Like Me Too (3)
"Your Majesty..." Han Jin looked up and saw the emperor coming, and couldn't help but kneel down.

Yun Shuo gave Han Jin a cold look, and Han Jin shrank his shoulders in fright, and didn't dare to make a sound.

But just that one word is enough to remind everyone.Han Qian looked up at Yun Shuo, put down the chopsticks in his hand, got up and went to pay respects, but Yun Shuo grabbed him.

Everyone else including Han Jin and Wei Xiyue knelt down to pay their respects.

"Everyone get up." Yun Shuo waved his hand, pulled Han Qian back to his seat, took another look at Zhang Ruixiang, and asked, "How's it going?"

Zhang Ruixiang didn't know what His Majesty's inexplicable question was specifically asking, but instinctively thought that the emperor must be concerned about the imperial chef's affairs, so he hurriedly replied: "Now we are investigating the special dishes of these imperial chefs to be selected."

"I didn't ask you this." The emperor snorted coldly, "Twenty boards are not light, can your small body bear it?"

Zhang Ruixiang immediately knelt down, weeping with gratitude, and said incoherently: "This old slave is terrified, this old slave deserves to die, this old slave thanks His Majesty for your favor..."

Seeing the sweaty face of the old eunuch kneeling on the ground, Han Qian couldn't help laughing and said, "What are you going to do? Are you busy?"

"Old slave, old slave...Old slave, thank Your Majesty for your love, thank...Your Majesty for your favor!" After Zhang Ruixiang finished speaking, he kowtowed heavily.

"Get up, I'm mad at you for looking so useless." Yun Shuo snorted.

"Yes, yes, this old slave is stupid." Zhang Ruixiang replied, and quickly got up from the ground.

Yun Shuo glanced at the imperial chefs who were still kneeling on the ground. Although these people were all wearing palace-made winter clothes, they still had different styles.This is the case with beauties, even if you give them a rag, some people will entangle them with a different beauty.

Really willing to spend time ah!Yun Shuo sighed silently, if all these thoughts were spent on the meals, all these people in front of him might be top imperial chefs.

"How is it? Is there any outstanding one?" Yun Shuo asked Han Qian.

Han Qian pointed to one of the eunuchs in the row, and said, "You, serve that lotus jade belt soup for His Majesty to taste."

The eunuch hurriedly agreed, came forward with the tray in his hand, and knelt at Yun Shuo's feet.

Han Jin hurried forward, took out a soup bowl scalded with hot water from the porcelain basin held by the maid next to him, filled half a bowl of soup, and handed it to Yun Shuo.

Yun Shuo took it, first brought it to his lips to smell it, then took a spoon, took half a spoonful and put it in his mouth, tasted it carefully, nodded and said: "It's light but not weak, the taste is not bad."

"I also think this is good." Han Qian smiled lightly and looked at the mass of black heads kneeling on the ground, and said to Zhang Ruixiang, "Who did this, tell him to come forward and thank you."

Zhang Ruixiang hurriedly picked up the piece of light green silk from the side of the soup pot, and shouted: "No. 30 No. [-], keep it! Come forward and thank Your Majesty Long En!"

Someone in the crowd responded loudly: "Caomin No. 36, Qian Shichong thank Your Majesty Long En." After that, a man in his 30s stood up and took a few steps forward, walked out of the crowd, and kowtowed again.

"Get up." Yun Shuo said lightly.

"Yes, thank you, Your Majesty, long live your majesty, long live." Qian Shicong kowtowed again, and said in a loud voice: "The grass people thank the princess, the princess is a thousand years old."

After hearing this, Yun Shuo couldn't help but chuckled: "It seems that you are good at cooking and eloquent."

"Grassmen don't dare." Qian Shicong was about to get up, but he knelt back with a plop when he heard this.

"Get up." Yun Shuo smiled lightly and shook his head.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Qian Shicong kowtowed again, seeing that Long Live God didn't say anything, Fang got up tremblingly.

Han Qian pointed to another eunuch again, and said, "The red plum pearl incense in your hand is presented to His Majesty to taste."

The eunuch hurriedly responded, and also came forward and knelt at Yun Shuo's feet.

Hongmeizhuxiang is a sweet and sour meal. It is mainly cooked with pigeon eggs and shrimp segments. First, several pigeon eggs are boiled, peeled and yellowed, and then filled with lean ham, seasoning and mixed well. Minced dried shrimps, mushrooms, scallops, etc., put a little minced ham on one end, put coriander leaflets or green peas on the other end, steam it in the drawer, take it out, simmer it in chicken broth, and coat it with gravy Into the outer ring of the flat plate.In addition, shell the prawns, remove the mud line, deep-fry until they are fully cooked and become bead-shaped, take out a spoon, boil with jam and broth, thicken the sauce, drizzle with sesame oil, and pile them in the middle of the flat plate.

This dish is bright in color, delicious in taste, refreshing and palatable, and has tonic effect.It is a delicacy very suitable for winter.

This time, Yun Shuo didn't wait for anyone else to do it, he directly took the chopsticks and put a slice of shrimp in the blue and white porcelain plate in front of him and put it in his mouth. So he asked, "What is this dish called Hongmei?"

"Return to Your Majesty, this is Hongmei Zhuxiang." Zhang Ruixiang said hurriedly.

Yun Shuo nodded and said: "Hongmeizhuxiang, the name is good, and the taste is also very good. Let this person stay."

The one who cooks the red plum and pearl fragrance is a cook. This person has studied in the National Medical Center before. Although she is not a famous star, she is also the daughter of a well-to-do family. Today, she won the emperor's appreciation with a family dish Naturally, she was overjoyed, and hurriedly came forward with the hem of her clothes on her knees to pay respects to Xie En, with a smug smile on her pretty face.

When Han Jin saw her, she couldn't help feeling fluctuating in her heart, thinking that the other party was just a girl from an ordinary family, so she was lucky enough to enter this splendid and glorious land. Although she is just a lowly cook today, there is no guarantee that she will not be a phoenix in the future, but she is still the same. Uncertain future……

"Big girl? Big girl!" Apple changed a few words in a low voice, seeing that Han Jin was still deep in thought, and just about to raise her hand to pull her.Wei Xiyue had already put her arms around Han Jin's shoulders, and asked with a smile, "What is Jin'er thinking, so engrossed!"

Han Jin suddenly came back to his senses, only to realize that the emperor had pulled her little aunt up and out of the meeting hall, so she shook her head with a busy smile: "It's nothing, I just feel homesick all of a sudden. I don't know when my little aunt will finish this errand , It looks like it’s the Chinese New Year.”

"You miss home?" Wei Xiyue said with a smile, "It's boring at home too, it's not as fun as here."

"But after being out for a long time, I always feel empty in my heart. I don't know how my grandmother is, nor how my father is."

"Well... you, you are just too worried." Wei Xiyue patted Han Jin on the shoulder, "You must have heard about that, so you want to go back?"

The so-called matter refers to the matter of Han Jianyuan's continuation of strings. Before Han Jin took the initiative to follow Han Qian into the palace, this matter had already been brought up by the eldest princess.It seems that Princess Dachang is interested in the daughter of a Jiangnan businessman. Han Jin didn't dare to ask more questions, which is not something she can ask.But she felt uncomfortable in her heart—her father is the son of Zhongyi Hou, who will inherit the marquis in the future, how can he marry a merchant's daughter as his stepmother?
