Dorian knew that it was okay not to listen last time, but he had to be obedient this time, so he cautiously came to the table and sat down.
"Don't worry about Wei Zhengyang's affairs. I will handle it myself. Now let's talk about your affairs. After all, you are a descendant of my old friend, unlike those Taoists who live in the imperial capital." Emperor Shenwu pushed the golden sword given to him by the emperor.
Dolin said in front of him.
"Back to the emperor, I don't know what to say." Daolin replied with a somewhat embarrassed expression.
"Tell me about your plan. After all, it's not easy to get out of that thin sky. You have to see the outside world." Emperor Shenwu guided.
"On the way here, I heard that now we have an academy system, so I want to find an academy to study." Dowling said his thoughts in a low voice.
"Huh? Do you want to be a warrior?" Emperor Shenwu asked with a smile on his face.
"Back to the emperor, I am already a warrior and I just started practicing martial arts this year." Daolin replied respectfully.
"It seems that your Taoist lineage has finally embarked on this path. It seems that there is no hope of eating delicious food again." Emperor Shenwu sighed and said.
Daolin heard the disappointment from Emperor Shenwu's words, and quickly replied: "No, I can also cook, and my great-grandfather can cook, I have learned it. I am not practicing martial arts just for the sake of practicing martial arts, I am...
I'm here to protect my family."
"Oh? Have you learned all Tiangao's crafts?" Emperor Shenwu asked with his eyes shining.
"I can't say it's exactly the same. At least I learned about it." Dolin said sheepishly.
"Hahahaha... As you said, I can't wait. I will cook a few dishes for me to try today. I miss the taste of the past." Emperor Shenwu said happily.
Daolin stood up quickly to receive the order.
"Don't be in a hurry. You just said you wanted to go to the academy. Do you have a goal in mind?" Emperor Shenwu asked Daolin to sit down again.
"I met a friend on the way here. He said he was going to the Imperial Capital Divine Martial Academy, so I was thinking about joining there." Daolin said truthfully.
"It's really nice there. If you want to go, I can arrange for you to go in, including your friends." Emperor Shenwu said with a smile.
Dolin's eyes flashed, and he was about to stand up to thank him, but then he thought of something.
"I'm sorry Emperor, I want to get into the academy with my own strength." Daolin lowered his head and said.
This time it was the emperor's turn to treat Daolin with admiration. How many people could still reject it verbally after receiving the emperor's approval?
"I'm very happy when you say that. Tiangao still has good descendants. Although the Taoist descendants have good martial arts talents, they have forgotten the most basic integrity. You are very good and I think highly of you."
After the emperor said that he liked Daolin, he once again said something promising. If outsiders heard it, they would definitely regard Daolin as the new rich man around the emperor.
"Are you interested in cooking some dishes for me now? To be honest, I really miss the taste of the past. Unlike today's cooks, the food cooked is too unpalatable." Emperor Shenwu said with expectation.
Daolin nodded with a smile on his face. There is a saying that goes well, if you want to catch a man, you must first catch his stomach. This sentence cannot be overstated when applied to the emperor.
In the kitchen of Emperor City, Daolin put on his apron, and a group of royal chefs respectfully waited for Daolin's instructions. All this was because the Emperor was sitting beside him.
Otherwise, they would definitely not have a good look towards Dolin. After all, cutting off a person's wealth is the same as killing his parents.
"What do you want to eat, emperor?" Daolin asked after getting ready.
"It's all right, just watch and do it." The emperor said with one hand on the seat.
Daolin nodded, turned around and told the chefs the ingredients and seasonings he needed, and the chefs quickly got busy.
After a while, a bunch of ingredients were brought up. Daolin refused the help of the royal chefs. After all, cutting vegetables can also gain experience points.
Daolin held the kitchen knife in his hand and gradually calmed down. In his eyes, the emperor was no longer the aloof emperor, but a diner waiting to taste his dishes.
Dolin moved and swung the kitchen knife in his hand. Both the speed of the knife and the thickness of the food he cut were impeccable.
Daolin prepared three dishes, the first one was the 'dragon and phoenix presenting auspiciousness' which he was most familiar with, the second one was 'Shan Qing Shui Xiu' with camel hump as the main ingredient, and the third one was 'Spring Scenery Beauty'.
It was still a familiar recipe and a familiar taste, and the emperor's expression became excited. He quietly moved to Daolin's side and looked at him as he concentrated on cooking. He was looking forward to it. After all, he had not eaten these dishes for more than ten years.
Ready.
Daolin mastered the time difference and the three dishes were cooked at the same time. When the steaming dishes were placed in front of the emperor, he couldn't wait to pick up his chopsticks.
"Please taste it, Emperor." Daolin said with a smile.
The emperor nodded, picked up a piece of eel meat with his chopsticks and put it into his mouth. The fried eel meat was charred on the outside and tender on the inside. It successfully stimulated the emperor's taste buds, and the spicy taste made his face turn red.
Daolin brought a bowl of chicken soup at the right time, and the emperor drank it all in one gulp without leaving a drop.
"It tastes like this! It tastes like this! It's fresh and spicy!" The emperor burst into laughter.
Then he looked at the "Splendid Mountains and Clear Waters" and saw that the hump had actually been modified by Daolin, making the original peak-shaped hump the size of dried tofu.
Put some cooking wine in a pot under cold water and blanch for three minutes, then take out the water, rinse, add dry powder and mix well.
Heat oil in a pan, fry once at medium oil temperature, take out the pan, leave the base oil in the pan, add onion, ginger, garlic, green and red pepper spicy sauce and stir-fry, pour the fried hump into the pan, add chicken essence and pepper,
Stir fry over high heat.
Because hump belongs to gelatinous fat, it will taste greasy, so after the dish was cooked, Dowling added some green chive flowers to the dinner plate, which was his own improvement.
"Yes! It's good, it's very refreshing, and the taste is more fragrant. It's really better than the old. You are taller and smarter than the sky!" The emperor praised him repeatedly after tasting it.
The last dish was the ingredients. I had eaten spicy dishes and humpback before, and overall it was a bit greasy, so Daolin chose the 'Spring Scenery Beauty' for the last dish.
When frying this dish, Daolin became more comfortable than before because he had inadvertently ascended to a greater realm and reached the Kaiyuan realm.
Along the way, he was responsible for the meals for himself and the alcoholic monk. Now he cooked two perfect dishes. His original cultivation experience of 970 has now exceeded 1000.
There is a huge gap between the internal power of the Entering Level and the Kaiyuan Level. The "Chunjing Yiren" cooked with the internal power of the Ninth Level Kaiyuan Realm is crystal clear on the surface, the soup is fresh and smooth, and the vegetables are crisp and delicious in the mouth.
"It seems that you have learned a lot of tricks." The emperor put down his chopsticks and said happily.
Daolin stood respectfully aside, not complacent because of the emperor's praise.
"Okay, I've eaten the food. I'm very satisfied. Let's go back. I have something to tell you." The emperor stood up and said.
