In fact, tonight is mainly a royal family banquet. Although it is not as grand as the state banquet celebrated with officials on the first day of the new year, because it is a royal family banquet, everyone should not take it lightly.Previously, Geng Bai'an had already picked out all the details, so today he just needs to keep an eye on them so that they don't make mistakes.

The busiest one is the imperial dining room, because not only the order of serving dishes was changed by Geng Bai'an, but besides a few essential traditional dishes, many dishes that are changed every year are also changed by Geng Bai'an to dishes that he has never seen before. .

At the beginning, the imperial chefs followed the method she said because of their trust in Geng Bai'an. After all, Geng Bai'an had taught them to make a lot of small snacks before, but later taught them these big dishes because Geng Bai'an had never cooked them himself. As a result, she and the royal chefs were buried in the kitchen for several days before adjusting the taste of the dishes to the best.

Fortunately, although I have never done it, but because I have drawn comics with chefs as the main occupation, I have checked a lot of information, and I know what materials and ingredients are, so I just need to fine-tune repeatedly.In addition, the imperial dining room naturally gathers cooking experts from all over Dachong, and the dishes mentioned by Geng Bai'an are also selected from modern cuisines from all over the world, so every time they encounter similar types of dishes, many of the imperial chefs can understand them well. Just one click, save a lot of trouble.

The appetizer was served according to the tradition, and then the main course was changed a few times, and Geng Bai'an also added dessert, which was the first of its kind in a banquet.

Dessert is nothing new, but ordinary egg pudding.It's just that there are chicken eggs everywhere in Da Chongguo, but no one has started to drink milk, and there is no black and white cow as Geng Bai'an described, which is very worrying for Geng Bai'an.In fact, even if there is no milk, it's fine to change to another dessert. Geng Bai'an can't do it, but he has a lot of recipes in his mind.

But Geng Bai'an didn't know what stubbornness he committed, so he kept staring at the egg pudding.

Within a few days, she searched for milk from all kinds of cows near Chongjing. She used a simple method to remove the smell and then compared it. Finally, she found a milk that tasted the same as the milk she drank in the 21st century. It is infinitely close to milk that is not only light in fishy smell but also sweeter.

It's just that this kind of cow is not the black and white cow she knew, but a wild mountain cow with a black body and white belly and limbs.This kind of wild mountain cattle has a gentle temperament. As long as it does not feel threatened, it will never take the initiative to attack humans.The meat of this kind of cattle is delicious, small in number but very smart, and only woodcutters who chop firewood occasionally see them on the mountain, but it is difficult for hunters to find them.

So in addition to this, Geng Bai'an also ordered someone to find a few of them and bring them back in captivity. It would be good to have a pasture to raise cows to produce milk in the future.

At the family banquet, apart from the empress dowager and the empress, there are only ten seats for other concubines in the harem. In previous years, so many people in the harem would have had to fight for the seats, but when you come to Geng Bai'an, you don't have to think about these things at all—— After all, apart from the Queen Mother and Geng Bai'an, there are not even ten people in the harem, so even if everyone goes, there will still be a few vacant.

It's just that the emperor's concubines are not allowed to take the throne, and as for the concubines of other princes, they cannot even be brought along.

"Eh? Ai's family heard that Prince Anlin's son also came during the autumn hunting, why didn't King Anlin come?" The queen mother sat down, looking at relatives, large and small, and asked Geng Bai'an.

She didn't mean to care about this King Anlin, after all, no matter whether it was Shu Yonghe or the first emperor's brothers, there were too many brothers to count, and there were very few brothers in Chongjing.Every year, the staff of the family banquet will always change depending on where they are located. After all, it is only a family banquet, so people who are nearby usually come.And if the nearby people exceed the quota, they will be invited to the palace in the order of important to unimportant, and King Anlin will occasionally appear in the family banquet.

Originally, the queen mother would not have noticed this at all, but Shu Hongyu mentioned the accident in Qiu Lie in front of her before, and unintentionally revealed that it was the accident caused by Prince Anling's son and his wife. Although the queen mother didn't care much, she inevitably remembered down.Now, it's just a random question.

"Sister-in-law..."

Just as Shu Hongyu was about to speak, Geng Bai'an immediately answered: "After returning to mother, King Anlin did not go to Beijing this year, and the previous sons and daughters of Prince Anlin also returned to the fief after the autumn hunting. The concubine ordered someone to send I posted the post, but King Anlin said that he was not feeling well recently, so the concubine did not force him. If the queen mother wants to see him, let King Xuan'an Lin go to Beijing tomorrow, okay?"

"No need." The Empress Dowager smiled and patted Geng Bai'an's hand: "The Ai family just asked casually. It's just that Hong Yu mentioned that Prince Anlin's son and his wife went to the autumn hunting with him, and the Ai family thought of such a person."

The voice of the conversation between the two is not loud, others may not hear it clearly, but Shu Yonghe who is beside the two can hear it clearly.He frowned slightly and didn't speak, but waited until Geng Bai'an sat on the other side of him, then turned his head and asked him softly: "What the hell is Shu Hongyu doing now? What does it have to do with King Anlin and his family?" ? And I seem to feel that he is targeting you."

Geng Bai'an calmly smiled at the relatives at the same table, and responded in a low voice: "I don't know either. Let's talk about it after the dinner is over. Now let's wait and see what happens."
