Chapter 247 New Year’s Eve Banquet, Three Surprises from the Prince Consort
Ritual music, singing and dancing are suspended.
Tea and cakes are dropped.
The maids brought in each exquisite copper shabu-shabu pot and placed it on the table in front of everyone.
Looking at the copper shabu-shabu on the table.
Everyone's faces showed surprise.
This was really the first time they had seen such an exquisite cooking cauldron.
I don't know what kind of dish this is going to be.
Immediately afterwards.
Charcoal, soup base, sesame sauce, chives, minced garlic cabbage, radish, tofu, hand-cut mutton slices, hand-beaten fresh chicken balls, duck blood, hand-made noodles and other dishes are all served.
Of course, for such a sumptuous dinner, burning knives is definitely indispensable.
"Hiss~ This...is this cooking? Your Majesty said that the Thousands of Old Banquets will not be extravagant and wasteful. It seems that this is true!"
"Do you know? His Majesty only gave the Prince Consort five thousand taels to prepare for the Thousand Old Man's Banquet. There are also fireworks, wine, vegetables, meat and noodles. This is considered quite good. Don't be so picky."
"This sauce is quite fragrant. Is this also the result of research by the Prince Consort?"
"That's right, Your Majesty said that the Qiansou Banquet is not meant to whitewash peace. It is really unnecessary to serve delicacies. It is better for the people to have full stomachs than anything else."
"Although the ingredients are very simple and the way to eat them is also very simple, I am really looking forward to it. Logically speaking, there is nothing ordinary about what the Prince Consort has researched."
...
Looking at the table full of ingredients.
Everyone in the hall was talking a lot.
Emperor Wei held a wine cup and stood on the imperial stage, scanning everyone, "Everyone, don't look at the dishes today as a bit crude. This is a new meal developed by the consort. It's called hot pot. I won't say much about the taste. You will understand after eating it.
Already."
"There is also this wine, called Shao Knife Zi, which was brewed by the consort himself. The taste will surely amaze you. I won't go into too much nonsense. There is enough wine and enough meat. You don't have to be polite. It's a great drink!"
The words fell.
Everyone raised their wine glasses and said, "Drink!"
Afterwards, everyone drank it all.
A glass of wine.
The sound of exclamation in the hall came one after another.
"Oh! So... such a strong wine! It turns out that the highlight of tonight is not the food but the wine!"
"Mellow, thick, strong, and endless aftertaste! Good wine! This is really good wine! No wine from Yugong can compare with it!"
"Cough, cough, cough...this...this wine is so spicy!"
"My consort can also make wine? And the wine he makes is so mellow! Isn't this incredible?"
"The Prince Consort is so versatile! Fireworks, fine wine, and delicacies! The Prince Consort managed the Thousands of Old Banquets all by himself! Look at the son-in-law His Majesty has found!"
.......
Princes, emperors, grandsons, civil and military officials, and old people all marveled at the Shao Daozi brewed by Qin Yu.
There are not many entertainment activities in this era.
Drinking has long been a fashion.
Therefore, eighty percent of the people in the palace like to drink.
The burning knife amazed everyone.
They really drank in this wine, the murderous aura that belongs to wine.
This wine can only be found in heaven and can only be drunk several times in the human world.
Shao Daozi can be called the emperor of wine, and should be the best in the world.
No amount of fine wine, jade dew, or royal tribute from the imperial palace can compare with the other three or four.
All civil and military officials have heard about the Qi State's cocktail party next year.
If you burn a knife to attend a meeting, you will definitely go crazy.
Immediately afterwards.
Emperor Wei waved his hand, "Keep playing music, keep dancing!"
Ritual music was played, and singing and dancing remained the same.
The heat wave was rolling in the hall, and everyone began to use chopsticks to eat.
Hundreds of people gathered together to eat hot pot. Not only was the scene spectacular, but it was actually warm.
Compared to princes, emperors, grandsons, civil and military officials.
The old people were the happiest, and they had no idea how crude the food was.
It's a great thing for them to have enough to eat on weekdays, let alone mutton.
Today there was wine, meat and vegetables, and they were very happy.
The appearance of the hot pot is just average.
Coupled with today's fireworks and knife burning, it was already very amazing.
Therefore, everyone did not have much hope for hot pot. They all thought that it was the most ordinary copper pot cooking, and its main theme was to recall hardships, think about sweetness, and be diligent and frugal.
But when everyone wrapped the cooked mutton with sesame sauce and put it in their mouths, the scene in the palace suddenly changed.
No one thinks that tonight's hot pot is to remember the bitterness and sweetness, and to be thrifty.
This is completely because they are blind and blind.
"It's delicious! The mutton slices covered with sesame sauce are really delicious! Even this sauce was developed by the Prince Consort, who is really amazing!"
"The simplest ingredients and the simplest cooking methods, but they have a different taste. I say there is absolutely no problem in trusting the prince-in-law!"
"This sesame sauce is really good! It tastes delicious when you eat it directly with flatbread."
"Um...can you add a few more plates of meat to me!?"
"Are there any more lamb kidneys?"
"I want to add some too."
...
Everyone in the palace was drinking Shaodaozi and enjoying the simple but not simple Thousand Old Man's Banquet.
Fireworks, burning knives, hot pot...
The Thousand-Sou Banquet hosted by the Prince Consort really amazed everyone time and time again.
Qin Yu frowned while eating vegetables and drinking wine.
He really underestimated the fighting power of this group of people, and the people in the palace were all adding meat like crazy.
If you continue to eat like this, you will probably exceed your budget.
How many sheep did these people have to eat?
But there is nothing we can do now.
You guys are eating and drinking so much, but you can't cut off your flesh.
He was thinking.
Xiao Nan instantly raised his hand, "Come here! Give me thirty plates of sheep kidneys! Thirty plates of mutton!"
Qin Yu: "..."
On the imperial stage.
Emperor Wei and Queen Chen were drinking wine with smiles on their faces.
"Your Majesty, look how well Yu'er organized this Thousand Old Man's Banquet! There were fireworks, fine wine, and delicious food. He took care of everything by himself, and it didn't cost much. He thought
Our son-in-law is really our blessing."
Queen Chen was holding the wine cup, her eyebrows slightly raised, her eyes filled with relief.
At the beginning, Emperor Wei entrusted this matter to her.
Empress Chen originally wanted Qin Yu to help with some advice, but unexpectedly she got out of hand.
The main reason is that Qin Yu is really good and arranges everything step by step without the need for others to intervene or worry.
Emperor Wei smiled and drank the wine, "Yes! I am also very happy. I think that when Wen Yao first brought him into the palace, he was still a playboy in our eyes. I didn't expect that it would be less than a year.
, he has become the pillar of the imperial court, God has been kind to me, Xiao Zhenghan."
"Qin Yu is a member of Prince Qin's palace, and he is not greedy for power. From now on, Nan'er will have his help, and I will be much more practical."
