Cao Cao's chef

Chapter 725

Around 06:30 in the evening, the guests came to the palace one after another. Like the earlier royal banquet, this banquet was arranged on the square in front of the palace because there were more people participating.

Many low tables have been set up here one after another, and there are also a large number of futons. According to the scale of the formal banquet of the Han Dynasty, the meal sharing system is adopted.Of course, in the matter of sitting upright, there is no need to force it too much, but at least sitting upright is good.

"Obviously there are already chairs and round tables, why do we still have to use such an ancient way of eating..." Cao Ren sat on the futon, and with her tutoring, it was obvious that she had to sit upright.It's just that I haven't done that for a long time, and I just feel that my knees are very uncomfortable.

"Perhaps Taichang thought that was too casual, so it didn't pass..." Cao Hong who was beside him said in a low voice, "Speaking of which, who is Taichang now?"

"Here comes Xu Yu. The eldest son of Xu Shu, the former general who was the master, seems to be a little younger according to his resume. However, Yang Biao, who was originally scheduled to be Taichang, is now serving as the governor of Xuzhou, so he was promoted to the next level. It is considered a high promotion." Cao Ren She has done a little homework, after all, they are all dignitaries in Xudu, she doesn't want someone to accidentally offend someone.

"Xu Yu's resume is enough, but he was suppressed before. Although he is not a retro type, his talent resume is enough... The key is that he has reached middle age, and it is estimated that he will be an official in ten years. It is too common. It may be the last post." Cao Cao reminded in a low voice.

"But sure enough... People of this age tend to have stricter requirements on etiquette..." Cao Ren complained.

"It's good to get used to it, it didn't always come like this before." Cao Cao said casually, "Your Majesty is here, please be quiet!"

As soon as the words fell, Liu Xie had already come to the main seat under the guard of the forbidden army, surrounded by palace maids and Huangmen.As expected, Liu Feng, who was already the prince, was also brought out.

"Your Majesty is here!" the attendant Huangmen shouted, and the surrounding courtiers got up one after another to salute Liu Xie.

"All loves, please don't be polite, tonight is a happy day, don't be too cautious." Liu Xiexu suppressed a bit, and then shouted loudly.The courtiers in the front who heard the response sat down, and those in the back who couldn't hear clearly, saw the one in front sitting down, and sat down one after another, for fear that they would sit too slowly and be impolite.

Some polite words are indispensable, there is no special program today, after all, most of the participants are soldiers.Naturally, Wen Ya didn't understand it, and it might be a little embarrassing if she really wanted to do it.So after Liu Xie finished his speech, he announced the start of the banquet and went directly to the topic.

"It's really fast..." Liu Bei felt a little emotional, "I thought there would be some songs..."

"It's You time now, and we have to go to the Yamen tomorrow. It is reasonable to try to finish the banquet within an hour. By the way, big sister, have you decided where to stay tonight?" Guan Yu asked with concern.

"I was planning to go to the post station..." Liu Bei looked at someone, "but I didn't want to meet Xun Yu on the way. She invited us to live in Wangjiazhuang, and I agreed."

"That's it...then there is no way..." Guan Yu put on a helpless expression, but he couldn't hide his joy at all.

"And..." Liu Bei smiled, "I came here this time, at least I managed the wedding. I can't say it's an orthodox wedding, but at least it's a little more formal, so don't let people underestimate you. Otherwise, I will never end with him !"

"Sister...thank you." Guan Yu said in a low voice, she was indeed touched.

"Between sisters, there is no need to do this." Liu Bei shook his head, and at the same time sighed insignificantly.Seeing that the second sister is also married and the third sister is engaged, he has no destination yet.Are all the good men in this world dead? !
The first round of meals has been served. The first dish is actually an appetizer. It can be dried radish, kimchi, or cashew nuts and fish fillets. The purpose is to appetize and increase appetite.

"Cashew nut fillets...the cashew nuts are not cheap, right?" Cao Cao looked at the cashew nuts and fish fillets in the plate.

"This stuff is only cheaper than chocolate, but it's not cheap either." Cao Ren who was beside him said in a low voice.

"Before the banquet, I would like to respect all the generals and my brave warrior!" Liu Xie raised his wine glass and swung it far away.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the wine!" Although the wine had already been poured by the maid in advance, those familiar with the rules would not raise their glasses at will before Liu Xie toasted. It was only at this moment that everyone raised their glasses one after another. After replying, Drank it down.

"The banquet has begun, you can do whatever you want!" Liu Xie solemnly announced, which means that everyone can finally eat freely.

"Mother, eat..." Liu Feng pointed to the cashew nuts, obviously the little guy really wanted to eat this.

"Feng Er wants to eat this? Wait..." Liu Xie picked up two of them and put them in his mouth. After chewing them up, he spat them into a spoon and handed them to Liu Feng.Don't look a little dirty, but at least it won't get stuck in the trachea. Compared with life, this move is really nothing.

"Crispy!" Liu Feng didn't mind, he ate the cashew nuts in the spoon and smiled at Liu Xie.Obviously, what Liu Xie drank before was probably not wine at all, it was probably fruit juice or water.

That's right, it's unreasonable not to toast the emperor of the Han Dynasty, but it's not good if he gets drunk and makes a fool of himself.

"This stuff is pretty good with wine..." He Qi enjoyed this stuff very much, a cashew nut and a sip of wine felt very comfortable.

"Of course it's good. It's very expensive. Generally, you and I are not willing to buy it with your salary." Xu Sheng next to him added, her attention was not on the food at all, but she looked around, but she still couldn't see it. To Wang Yong.In fact, she was also stationed in Xudu, so it was not difficult to meet Wang Yong, but the girl was thin-skinned and didn't want to act like she was taking the initiative.

The timing of the dinner was very accurate, everyone ate and drank a little, and then the soup was served.It was inevitable that Huangmen shouted and reported the name of the dish: "Qiantang, Baiyu Wuxia!"

"Hey!" Everyone was very curious, what kind of Qiantang could be worthy of the words 'Bai Yu Wu Xia'.As a result, when the soup was served, the white bowl of soup was indeed as white as jade, and it was obviously of the level of suet white jade.

"This thing is really soup, not soy milk?" Cao Ren murmured in a low voice, but when he scooped it up and put it in his mouth, a umami taste wafted up and flowed into his nasal cavity, and then turned into an electric current, rushing into his brain middle.

"It's such a fresh soup, you can smell it before drinking it!" Cao Ren couldn't help exclaiming in a low voice.

"This should be fish soup, but I don't know what kind of fish it is..." Xun Yu smelled it, and then took a sip. Her curiosity and appetite had been completely seduced, and she couldn't wait to taste this soup. .

"!!!" Lu Bu directly clenched his fists excitedly, and the stupid hair on his head was stimulated to stand on end, as if it was fried.On the face that had remained unchanged for thousands of years, a faint rosiness appeared on the cheeks, and there was more joy in the eyes.

Obviously, she is very satisfied with the taste of this soup.

"So that's it... miscellaneous fish soup..." Cao Cao took a sip. She drank this before. It seems that Wang Yong didn't cook it himself, but the finished product is still very good.Miscellaneous fish, cabbage, a little salt and pepper, almost no seasoning, but it is really rare to be able to make such a white and delicious soup.

　No, I wasted a lot of time trying to think about the names and items of the dishes... Everything should be considered according to the top level... Although it is still a series of home-cooked dishes...
