Chapter 150: The Embarrassed Xu Huang and Jia Xu

Liu Xie and his party of three were taken directly to the private room on the second floor by the waiter. It was facing the window and could see the street downstairs.

Liu Xie was quite satisfied with this position and sat down directly.

"What would you like to eat, sir? We have a heavenly army chef who is good at all kinds of dishes." The waiter was very attentive.

"Then what special delicacies do you have here?" Liu Xie suddenly became interested when he heard that this was indeed a restaurant run by a player.

And judging by the waiter's attitude, you can tell that the waiter here has definitely received special training.

"Guest, we have a lot of special dishes here, but there are only three of you in your party. I suggest that you order one portion of boiled meat, one portion of stir-fried vegetables, and West Lake vinegar soup.

There are meat and vegetables, as well as soup.”

When Liu Xie heard this, he thought that was ok, the service level was excellent.

Knowing that there are only three of us, I don't give you many recommendations or consider the guests. It's not like in the previous TV series where I gave you the entire seven or eight dishes as soon as they were served, regardless of whether you can eat them or not.

Moreover, these three dishes can be said to include the three cuisines of the north and the south, and they are also the specialties of these cuisines.

Boiled pork, the representative of Sichuan cuisine in later generations, is characterized by spicy and delicious flavor. The meat slices should be smooth and tender, while the side dishes should be fresh.

The taste should be spicy but not dry. It should be numb first and then spicy, and finally leave a fragrance on your lips and teeth.

Stir-fried vegetables use leeks, bean sprouts, and eggs as raw materials. It seems simple, but the heat is very important.

The same goes for West Lake Vinegar Soup, so when the waiter revealed these three dishes, Liu Xie immediately became interested.

"Okay, just these three dishes." Liu Xie nodded.

"Okay, would you like to drink, sir? We have some new and good wine."

"Have a pot." Liu Xie nodded.

"Okay, sir, wait a moment, I'll go get ready now." The waiter said, and then left the private room.

Soon, in no more time than a cup of tea, the waiter brought all the dishes to the table.

The one that came was boiled meat, with a thick layer of oil that cut off the heat, but it was definitely hot in the mouth.

There were no chili peppers in this era, so the chef directly used local ingredients and used Zhuyu to add spiciness.

Liu Xie only took a small bite, and his mouth suddenly felt hot.

This tastes right!

The next stir-fried vegetables and West Lake vinegar soup were also exceptionally delicious.

But what surprised Liu Xie the most was the wine the waiter served at the end.

It has a clear color and a strong aroma of wine. Liu Xie was very surprised when he tasted it.

The alcohol content of this wine is quite high.

In the Han Dynasty, the general wine was relatively turbid and low in alcohol content. This was because there was no distillation technology in the Han Dynasty.

The wine in Liu Xie's cup has obviously been distilled, and its alcohol content has reached at least 48 degrees.

"Okay, this wine!" Liu Xie took a sip and immediately exclaimed.

When the waiter heard Liu Xie's praise, his face suddenly lit up with joy.

"It's up to you, sir, if you like it. Sir, please use it slowly. I'll take my leave first. If you need anything, you can call me at any time. I'll wait for you outside the door." The waiter in the shop was very knowledgeable.

After the waiter exited the private room, he also closed the door of the private room.

Liu Xie turned around and saw that Jia Xu and Xu Huang were sitting at attention, with no intention of moving quickly.

"My dear friends, what are you waiting for? Let's eat together." Liu Xie smiled slightly.

"Your Majesty, this isn't appropriate." Xu Huang felt a little uncomfortable when Liu Xie asked him and Jia Xu to eat together.

"Gongming, you and Wen He are both my buttocks. Besides, we are still outside the palace now, so we don't need to pay too much attention to it. Let's eat together."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." After hearing Liu Xie's words, Jia Xu first thanked Liu Xie, then picked up the bamboo stick and tasted the boiled meat.

As a result, the boiled meat was so spicy that Jia Xu's face changed.

He quickly picked up the wine glass and drank the high-strength liquor in one gulp.

As a result, the 48-degree high-altitude wine was not acceptable to Jia Xu, who was used to drinking low-alcohol wine.

As soon as the drink entered his mouth, Jia Xu felt something was wrong. The spicy and stimulating feeling of the drink made Jia Xu want to spit it out.

But as soon as he rolled his eyes, he saw Liu Xie sitting in front of him.

If he vomits this shit out, it will be directly a crime of disgrace before the emperor, and it may be a crime of beheading.

Jia Xu hadn't lived enough yet and he didn't want to die, so he covered his mouth with both hands and swallowed the wine and the spicy meat slices with tears in his eyes.

Then the aftertaste of the liquor started from his stomach, passed through his throat, and reached his nose.

Anyone who has ever choked on alcohol should have experienced that kind of sourness. It's very sour and refreshing.

So Jia Xu couldn't bear it anymore, and he started coughing violently. It felt like he would cough up his lungs.

Jia Xu wanted to hold it back, but could he hold it back? The more he held it in, the more he wanted to cough.

In addition, Jia Xu was worried that Liu Xie would blame him, so he coughed and apologized to Liu Xie.

"Mr... cough cough cough... son, here... cough cough cough... I'm... cough cough cough!"

"Okay, okay, please speak slowly first." Liu Xie looked at the embarrassed Jia Xu, and his tears were about to burst out from laughter.

Xu Huang, who was standing by, saw Jia Xu like this, and he was immediately curious. He wanted to know what kind of food and wine could make Jia Xu, a man who was tested by alcohol, look like this.

So, Xu Huang followed what Jia Xu had just done. He first took a bite of the boiled meat, and then Xu Huang, who was too spicy, also took a bite of high-strength wine.

It was better now, Xu Huang and Jia Xu started coughing together.

Seeing this scene, Liu Xie burst out laughing again, almost crying.

After waiting for a while, when the two of them finally stopped coughing, Liu Xie said slowly: "You two, this is not how you drink this wine. You should drink it slowly, like me."

As he spoke, Liu Xie picked up the wine glass on the table and took a refreshing sip.

I have to say that this wine is good, with a refreshing taste, a fragrant aftertaste, and a slight burning sensation that flows from the mouth to the stomach, and the entire abdominal cavity begins to feel warm.

"Good wine, good wine." Liu Xie praised with a smile.

When Xu Huang and Jia Xu heard Liu Xie's words, they looked at each other, then picked up the wine glasses, imitated Liu Xie's actions, and took a sip. This time, Xu Huang and Jia Xu finally realized the beauty of the wine.

place.

So, the three of them started eating with each bite of food and wine.

After drinking and eating for a while, Liu Xie put down the kuaizi in his hand and patted his belly with satisfaction.

Then Liu Xie looked out the window, ready to admire the bustling streets of Luoyang.

At this time, Liu Xie suddenly noticed that a group of cavalry suddenly appeared at one end of the street.

The clothes of these cavalry are somewhat different from those of the Han cavalry.

Liu Xie's cavalry of the Han Dynasty was generally mainly black. The iron pieces were first dyed black and then connected in series with red twine, so from a distance, the cavalry of the Han army were black and red.

The player's equipment is relatively complicated, including silver-gray infantry armor, shiny Mingguang armor, and Ming Dynasty frontier armor with a gun tip inserted on the head.

It can be said that there are various types, but including the style Liu Xie is seeing now.

This group of cavalry wore iron armor, but outside the armor, there were some wolf skin decorations.
