This time, even they did not expect that the Supreme Emperor would bring out so many Zhenguan tables and Zhenguan chairs.
They were finally able to sit down and try to see if they felt comfortable.
Soon, all the guests who were eligible to sit at the first seven tables sat on the Zhenguan chairs.
As soon as I sat on it, I immediately felt how comfortable it was to sit on the Zhenguan chair.
Not only does it have a reliable back, but there is also a chair frame in front to put your arms on, and there is a cushion under the seat, which is soft and comfortable.
Almost every guest who sat on the Zhenguan chair had a look of comfort on their face.
This made those guests who were not qualified to sit on the Zhenguan chair even more curious.
I heard them say that this kind of thing is called a Zhenguan chair. Is it really as comfortable as they say when sitting on it?
What is it like?
They really want to sit on it and try it!
However, they also knew very well that it would be difficult for them to have this opportunity.
This is a Zhenguan chair only found in the palace. Even if they wanted to buy it, there was no place to buy it.
With this regretful mood, the banquet officially began.
Those powerful men began to serve wine and food.
The dishes in the palace are all cooked by the royal chef, so it goes without saying that they taste good.
But among all the guests who can come to celebrate your birthday, aren’t they rich and noble?
Even the dishes in the palace, many of them have never tasted them.
In the presence of the Supreme Emperor and His Majesty, these guests are basically just having a taste of things, and they must pay attention to maintaining their manners and politeness.
But when the food was served and they took a bite, they couldn't put their chopsticks down anymore.
fragrant!
It’s so fragrant!
They could swear that this was the first time they had eaten such delicious dishes in their entire lives!
I simply can’t stop!
There were hundreds of banquet tables at the scene, and in the short time it took to have a cup of tea, they were all eaten up, and there was only a little bit of soup and water left in the bowl.
Well, it's very polite to leave soup and water on the table.
You are like those military generals who drank all the soup and water on the table on the spot. The bowl was as clean as if it had just been brushed.
Even the Emperor's table was no exception.
Even the Emperor Li Shimin couldn't help but stretch his chopsticks several times, let alone others.
Well, apart from the Emperor, Li Min and his friends, the Emperor also ate dishes made with MSG for the first time!
Li Shimin couldn't help but start to wonder, when did the royal chef in the palace cook so delicious food?
Li Shimin couldn't help but want to ask the Supreme Emperor, but considering that the Supreme Emperor didn't want to see him at all.
It is estimated that even if he asked, the Supreme Emperor would not tell him, so Li Shimin had to endure it very hard.
…
Originally, these guests naively thought that the first dish just now was made using a unique secret recipe in the palace, so it tasted amazingly delicious.
But when the second dish was served, they discovered that the second dish was also delicious.
Followed by the third, fourth...
Almost every dish tasted so delicious that they almost swallowed it with their own tongues.
These dishes are so delicious that they have no friends!
Because these dishes were so delicious, I even drank a lot less wine.
There is no way, as soon as the food comes, it will be gone if you don't grab it, so there is no time to drink.
Only after grabbing the food can you have a nice drink, and then there will be no more food!
This birthday banquet of the Supreme Emperor is not a whole year old, but the scale is not small.
There are many dishes, a total of eighteen dishes before and after.
If it were left to the past, guests would have eaten politely and only had a limited amount of food.
Except for those tables for military commanders, there was simply no way to finish the food at other banquets.
There are so many dishes, it would be nice to eat half of them.
But today, from beginning to end, not a single one of the eighteen dishes was left, and all were eaten.
This has never happened before.
Not to mention in the palace, this kind of thing is rare even among the people.
If at the banquet, all the dishes are eaten by the guests, it proves that the host is stingy, prepares few dishes, and is reluctant to let others eat.
If this happens, you will definitely be called a stingy person behind your back.
But I never expected that this situation would actually appear at the royal banquet.
Well, although this is not that the royal family is stingy, it can only be blamed on the delicious food they cook.
After dinner, everyone except those potbellied Han generals.
Almost everyone felt that they were full, and not only a little bit full, but also felt like they couldn't stand up.
In the women's area, Li Mengxin and Wu Jue, two little girls, both touched their swollen bellies and said in a sweet voice: "Mom, what should I do if I'm full?"
Then, the mother of the two little girls lectured them with a straight face: "You are not ashamed. Who do you think is the same as you? Do you still have the image of a lady? How did your mother teach you when you were at home?"
"
After being scolded, the two little girls immediately lowered their heads in shame.
Little did they know that their mothers were also feeling uncomfortable at this time, but they were too embarrassed to say it out loud.
When the matter reaches this point, it is half successful.
But now we must let these guests know why these dishes are so delicious.
Originally, the session designed by Li Min was for Li Min to ask questions and the Supreme Emperor to give the answers.
The grandfather and grandson performed together, which had the effect of advertising.
Unexpectedly, before Li Min could ask, Cheng Zhijie couldn't help but ask: "Your Majesty, how come today's food is so delicious? In the past, the dishes cooked by the royal chefs in the palace were not so delicious. Did they study it again?
New tricks come out?"
Upon hearing Cheng Zhijie's question, the other guests couldn't help but prick up their ears and listen carefully.
After all, this question is actually the question they want to ask.
Emperor Li Yuan smiled slightly and said: "Actually, the preparation of each dish is exactly the same as before, and there is no change. However, before each dish is cooked, a little MSG is added to change the taste of the dish.
It’s even more delicious.”
With that said, in order to help Li Min advertise, Emperor Li Yuan specially picked up a paper bag and said to Cheng Zhijie: "Zhijie, look, what's in it is MSG."
Whoosh!
It's too late to say it, but it's soon.
Cheng Zhijie took advantage of Emperor Li Yuan's unpreparedness and snatched the MSG from Li Yuan's hand.
Then he chuckled and said: "Your Majesty, you must have a lot of this stuff in your palace. Can you just reward me with this small packet of MSG?"
The Supreme Emperor Li Yuan couldn't help laughing and scolding him when he provoked him: "You Cheng Yaojin, even if you become a high official, you are still such a scoundrel! Well, since you said so, the Supreme Emperor will reward you with that packet of MSG!"
Cheng Zhijie couldn't help but be overjoyed and said quickly: "Old minister, I would like to thank the Emperor for the reward."
