Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty

C2212 The life of the cook

Tongzhi's face flushed. He really wanted to kick this dog slave to death and bring him down. Such an important national banquet was ruined by you. A grass fish ruined a state dinner, do you know that?

Liu Dadao kowtowed as if he was pounding garlic, he did not dare to say that this dish was left behind by the leader! Wasn't servants used to take the blame, but he couldn't just kowtow. If the emperor's anger wasn't quelled, then he would die.

Taking the courage, Liu Dadao said: "Calm down His Majesty! This servant has something to say … It was true that the dish was made by grass fish, but there really was no sting! "I've removed all of the thorns, and the cooking process is very meticulous. With my family's secret recipe, there won't be any thorns left …"

"The His Majesty is enlightened! His Majesty is enlightened … "

The situation had already turned stiff, the Emperor of Tongzhi was also helpless under the pressure of the Mongolian Empire, he hardened his heart and shouted loudly for face.

"Since esteemed guest doesn't believe our chef's cooking skills …" Zai Chun bit his lower lip and said with a sneer, "That's good too. Please enjoy today's dish, as long as there's one person whose throat has been pierced by a fish bone … I will use this servant's head to apologize to your esteemed guest! "

"Oh my god!" God! " The scene was in an uproar. Everyone only had one thought in their minds: Barbarian, this is too barbaric. You want to kill someone just because you tested whether there were fish bones or not?

Tongzhi couldn't care about all that. He stared at Liu Dadao and said, "This is a life wager, a wager on whether your cooking can save your life!"

Liu Dadao's eyes were filled with hot tears ashe knocked her head against the ground, producing a dull sound of impact. After that, she raised her head and used the stubbornness that a chef should have and said word by word, "This slave … Only now … "Betting …"

The scene suddenly became chaotic, and many young noble ladies stood up, "Oh god, I will never allow such a barbaric act! "Sorry, I refuse to taste this dish!"

"It's just a dish, how can it be related to the valuable life of humans? "This is wrong …"

"Your Majesty, please retract your disrespectful request. Otherwise, we will withdraw in unison to protest against your actions!"

Zai Chun's face immediately flushed red. It was the first time that he had been robbed by a group of ladies. If it were in the Great Qing Dynasty, no one would dare to say a word no to the Emperor.

Right at this time when the situation was extremely awkward, Xiao Letian stood up and laughed, "Esteemed guests, please do not be angry, do not be impatient! I think His Majesty only made a joke and didn't really want to use your life as the wager! "

"Actually, the core of the problem is only this dish. If all the guests here don't like it, we can just withdraw …"

"No!" A resolute voice suddenly interrupted Xiao Letian's words, causing everyone to see that it was the kneeling Liu Dadao.

The chef stared at the leader stubbornly. "No!" I can't withdraw. If I do, I'll jump into the river and commit suicide! "

"His Majesty! The Führer! Her Majesty the Queen! "Masters …" Liu Dadao's eyes were filled with hot tears as she shouted loudly, "I am a craftsman! Cooking is my life! If this dish is rejected today, I will not be convinced! "

"I want to defend my reputation with my life, I am the chef of the Forbidden City! What I am now representing is the face of a Chinese meal! I beg you, give me a chance to prove myself! "

Everyone present was moved, they were all infected by Liu Dadao's anger and grief! This was just a chef, but a chef also had the dignity of a chef. It was a confidence in their skills and protection.

The women who were making a ruckus to leave were also speechless. Women were emotional, they were born with more compassion than men.

Xiao Letian swept his eyes across Montaubon, and looking at its gloating look, he thought to himself, "Just you wait, when our army sweeps over France, I will take your life!"

Thinking about that, Xiao Letian turned his head to look at Liu Dadao, "Alright, since you want a chance, then show off your skills! To open the eyes of all the honored guests, that would also mean that you have confidence in your culinary skills! "

Bang! With a dull thud, Liu Dadao kowtowed and fell to the ground, before jumping up and walking backwards. Under the confused gazes of the crowd, he pulled one of his companions along, with an incomparably huge black iron kitchen knife in his other hand.

The imperial guards present were so frightened that they immediately rushed up, but Xiao Letian stopped them. "Don't worry, a kitchen knife is the life of a chef, he might want to demonstrate his culinary skills to the Queen, don't worry!"

Liu Dadao cupped his fists and bowed to the guests: "My lord, my lords, my lord! Since you are afraid that my, Liu Dadao's, cooking skills will not work, then let me show you today, my Chinese cooking skills! "

"Second brother, are you afraid?"

The chef by his side had cooperated with Liu Dadao for many years, and immediately shouted out loud, "I trust Brother Liu's cooking skills, you can do it …"

Everyone present was stunned, no one knew what the two were up to. With a flip of the chef's right hand, a thick beef leg bone appeared in front of everyone.

It was a raw beef leg bone, and its tendons had been removed, revealing its pale white bones. With a flip of his hand, the chef grabbed one end of the leg bone. The one-foot long bone stick was pasted onto his arm.

He held one end of the leg bone in his palm, and the bone was pressed against his arm as he faced the sky. Then, he stretched out his arm and shouted, "Brother Liu, use your blade!"

"Alright!" "Ahh!" With a loud shout, the black iron kitchen knife in Liu Dadao's hand directly flew over his head, and directly chopped towards his brother's arm without saying a word.

"My God!" Shouts of surprise and shock filled the air. "What is he doing?!"

After a series of screams, many women covered their eyes with their hands, as if the next second was the scene of a living person getting his arm cut off. The lady who was slightly dizzy with blood immediately collapsed into the arms of the man beside her.

At this moment, there was no one who could stop Liu Dadao, so he did not bother to explain and immediately chopped down with his kitchen knife.

This black iron kitchen knife was meticulously made. The average person's kitchen knife was only about two or three catties, which was about one and a half kilograms. However, this black iron kitchen knife of Liu Dadao's weighed at least seven and a half kilograms, almost four kilograms.

This heavy and sharp kitchen knife could chop a piece of the calf's leg bone into pieces without a problem, but what about the arm beneath the bone? That was the arm of a living person!

Ah … Screams could be heard all around. With a loud crack, half of the black broadsword's leg bone tumbled onto the dining table where Montopia was sitting.

Bada … Bada … With two popping sounds, the half of the beef leg bone directly knocked over the bowl of sour plum soup in front of Yi Wan.
