Kublai Khan was relatively tall and rough-looking but still had an imperial air.
But at this time, Kublai Khan was wearing a sweat scarf and the white apron tied outside the royal robe had not yet been taken off.
Kublai Khan attracted everyone's attention as soon as he appeared on the stage.
"Oh, this imitation is so lifelike, it is simply a replica of Emperor Yuan."
"Well, a nation that conquers the world on horseback. Tsk tsk, this store is really well done. The details are so detailed, the dishes should be good."
“But this ‘Yangzhe Mountains’ really doesn’t look that good.”
Soon, Kublai Khan came closer and said respectfully to Ying Zheng: "First Emperor, what can I do?"
Yingzheng Weiran was self-reliant and unparalleled in his domineering power. The true emperor's aura of the First Emperor throughout the ages was astonishing from the inside out.
"Some people question that this dish of yours is not of high taste and should not be included in the royal cuisine. This is a dish you recommended to develop. Please explain."
As soon as Ying Zheng finished speaking, Kublai Khan looked for someone in the crowd with his bell-like eyes: "Hmm? Who dares to question? Stand up and speak."
The bald chef who had just been helped up almost stumbled to the ground.
Previously, Ying Zheng's true emperor's glare almost made him lose his mind. Unexpectedly, when the "chef" wearing an apron roared, he became even more panicked.
The bald chef is very strange. He is a five-star Michelin chef. Even when faced with the signature dishes of the most powerful chefs in the world, he has always been fearless. Now, how could he be like this when faced with a chef from a private restaurant?
The bald chef braced himself and said, "It's...it's me. This 'Yang Covering the Mountains' is clearly a simple stew of mutton in water. Why did it become a royal cuisine?"
Kublai Khan's eyes widened: "Why? This is the reason why I decided to include it in the royal cuisine. Do I still have to explain it to you?"
"puff!"
Not only Xiang Shaolong, but also the people who were watching melon-eating were also happy. This mighty and majestic "chef" had a really big temper.
Kublai Khan's voice was as bright as a bell, piercing the eardrums. The bald chef nodded under the pressure: "I...I can raise my doubts."
When Ying Zheng saw this, he smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if you explain it to him."
Seeing that the First Emperor had spoken, Kublai Khan walked to the dish of "Yangzhaqunshan" and glared at the bald chef: "Do you think this is just a simple dish of mutton stewed in water?"
When asked this question, the bald chef felt guilty.
The melon-eating crowd, reporters and internet celebrity anchors who were watching cheered up. Is there a story behind this dish?
At this time, Zhongli Wuyan said: "Give him some experience, otherwise this bald man will really look down on you."
The bald chef's face felt hot and he wanted to retort, but when he saw Zhongli Wuyan's tall and powerful figure, he immediately lost his temper.
At this time, the people who eat melons are also waiting and watching, waiting for the "chef" of Zhutian Royal Private Kitchen to give the correct answer.
"Huh, okay, then let me tell you the origin of this dish and the reason why it was selected as a royal private dish."
Kublai Khan let out a long breath, his eyes blank, as if he was recalling an eventful period of time.
"First of all, this dish is a royal dish ordered by Kublai Khan. You must know this first. Regarding the origin of this dish, I can say without exaggeration that it is directly related to the fate of the Yuan Dynasty."
Everyone took a long breath of air-conditioning, and a dish of mutton stewed in clear water was connected to the national destiny of an empire?
"At that time, the Yuan Empire had not yet been truly established, and the victory over the Japanese and European countries had not yet begun. One year, it was snowing heavily, and Kublai Khan led a cavalry of 3,000 people to conquer the enemy in Mobei. Unexpectedly
, the snow is getting heavier and heavier, and there are mountains of snow, making it extremely difficult even for war horses to move."
"Soon, Kublai Khan's team lost its way in the heavy snow. At that time, there were no modern positioning devices, walkie-talkies, etc., and there was a problem with direction identification. The entire team was lost in the snowy Mobei.
area."
"It took four days to get lost. The original two-day battle plan was shattered. In the snowy field covered by heavy snow, all the dry food and supplies of the entire team were exhausted. Later, the soldiers had to slaughter the horses to feed themselves.
"
"However, this situation did not last long. Soon, our brave soldiers began to fall one after another. Due to cold and hunger, the team caused great losses, and because they did not know the way, they suffered heavy losses."
Everyone found that when Kublai Khan told this past historical scene, he was as lifelike as if he were personally present. His sad expression and sometimes deep tone made those who listened to the story feel silently sad, and the sense of immersion was surprisingly strong.
The scene was quiet, and no one interrupted Kublai Khan's narration, even if the dish "Yangzhaqunshan" was not mentioned yet. Even the bald chef calmed down and listened quietly to Kublai Khan's talk about the past.
story.
"A terrible thing still happened. In the snowfield, the team encountered a snowstorm, and the originally incomplete team was swept away. Soon, Kublai Khan lost contact with the soldiers. He supported himself in the snowstorm alone.
After two days and two nights, I finally lost all strength and collapsed."
At this point, everyone's heart skipped a beat. The ending of the story must be good, otherwise, the Great Yuan Empire would not have been established. But at this time, everyone was immersed in the story of Kublai Khan
He cannot extricate himself from his situation.
"At this moment, Kublai Khan, who felt that he was about to die, suddenly saw sheep all over the mountains and plains in the confused snowstorm, covering the sky and the sun, and the mountains were all filled with sheep. That kind of 'bleating' sound,
It was so real, and it gave Kublai Khan great hope."
"Two days later, Kublai woke up in a simple hut in a snowy field. It turned out that it was an old herdsman from the snowy field in Mobei who rescued him. In the vast snowy field, there was a pot of snow water and randomly slaughtered pieces of mutton.
His son became the key to Kublai Khan changing his destiny. You all know the subsequent story, which is recorded in official history."
"Because of this, Kublai Khan loved to eat mutton throughout his life, and named this dish 'Yangzhe Qunshan' to commemorate that important moment that could rewrite the fate of the Yuan Dynasty. Phew..."
The melon-eaters who were watching were relieved.
It turns out that an ordinary dish of mutton stewed in water actually has such an allusion, and it saved the life of Emperor Shizu of the Yuan Dynasty.
After recovering from the past emotions, Kublai Khan glared at the bald chef and said: "The emperor likes it, that's why. What's more, the ingredients of this 'Yangzhaqunshan' dish are easy to obtain and easy to prepare. It can be said to be a home-cooked dish."
Can’t the emperor like home-cooked food? Can’t it become royal private cuisine?”
