Seeing Kerry raised his front paw, Mu Zexi frowned, and hurriedly grabbed Jiang Ruan and pushed him forward.Turning back while pushing, he pointed his index finger at Kerry, who was eager to try, and an onomatopoeia popped out of his mouth. "Snapped!"

Kerry's eyes widened, and when he heard the sound, he fell to the ground as if he couldn't use his front and rear paws.With his broad build and thick, long fur, Kerry lay across the floor like a giant plush blanket.

Taking advantage of this moment, Mu Zexi took Jiang Ruan by the shoulders and walked out with his arms around him. "Isn't this teasing you? It's not like you don't know that I'm not serious. I don't have the courage, do I?"

Jiang Ruan didn't want to talk to her, so she was half pushed and half walked out.Only Kerry lay on the floor in a daze, and found that no one was playing with her, and the two little masters were about to leave the room, so they hurriedly propped up their fat bodies, shaking Mao Xiaobu followed go up.

The ceremonial car for parade has long been waiting inside the inner wall of the royal residence, and the eldest prince and his wife are ready.Mu Jiuqiang was still wearing the military uniform as usual, but Li Hui picked out a shirt and unlined clothing. He didn't know if he would be able to withstand the strong wind when he was parading later.

Seeing Mu Zexi pushing Jiang Ruan closer, Li Hui waved quickly. "Jiang Jiang! I was watching the media reports on Xingwang, and they were all talking about you."

"What are you talking about?" Jiang Ruan followed the guidance of the female officer, and stood at the rear side of the limousine with Mu Zexi.

"They are all regretting the fall of a generation of male gods." Li Hui joked with a smile. "It is said that the royal family took advantage of it and got a male god who can cook."

"It's not so exaggerated, is it?" Jiang Ruan laughed.

"That's right, it was booked for me early." Mu Zexi raised his eyebrows, protected Jiang Ruan's head and sent him into the limousine car. "After a while, the car will only drive to the entrance of the avenue, and we need to walk the rest of the road by ourselves."

"Okay." Jiang Ruan nodded.If he drove by all the way, it would not be a carnival but a military parade, and he would not be used to it.

The interior of the traditional limousine modified by aircraft is spacious, and two rows of comfortable sofas allow people in the car to sit face to face.The supporting facilities are also very complete. Jiang Ruan also saw the sherry wine produced by Taoqianzhai in the translucent wine cabinet. The shape of the long-necked and fat-bellied bottle is quite special.

Clive was on one side of the seat, clearly interested in the liquor cabinet.Nai couldn't climb up the transparent protective cover with his claws, so he gave up the idea of ​​grabbing a bottle.

"Your Majesty and the others are over there, we sit in this row, and there are a few guards behind the car for protection." Li Huimu Jiu Qiang followed and entered, pointing to Jiang Ruan.

"Well, okay." Jiang Ruan nodded.

The female officer had specifically told him before that walking on Victory Avenue needed to show a friendly attitude to the people.At this time, she is not just a cook, but represents the face of the royal family and the image of Mu Zexi.

Although he was born and raised in a democratic society, he still feels that the royal family is too storytelling, but after the identity change, he also has to consider his lover and strive to make a good impression in front of the public.

"Good morning, children, we are ready to go. Don't show your timidity when the media reporters rush up later." Zhang Yan followed behind Mu Jiang, and finally boarded the limousine with the female officer.Gathering up the corners of the seldom-worn fancy dress, she sat down gracefully beside Mu Jiang.

"Good morning." The four juniors who sat still replied.

"Go to the entrance of Shengli Avenue first, and then you need to go to both sides of the aisle as you walk, and distribute small gifts to tourists." Zhang Yan compared her fingers, and then pushed Mu Jiang with her elbow without a trace.

"The guards will follow you in plain clothes to protect your safety." Mu Jiang cleared his throat. "Once something happens, hide behind the guards, they all have electronic shields."

"Okay, remember." Jiang Ruan nodded.

"Your Majesty, Your Royal Highness, and Your Highnesses. This is the situation. The staff who set up the venue distributed some chocolate candies to the first tourists who came. But as more and more tourists came, they gave priority to giving out banners and flags. , small gifts and desserts need to be carried out during the parade, and our maids will follow behind to help your highness distribute them, and please don’t go beyond our controllable surveillance position when communicating with tourists.”

"Okay, the environment has been very good in recent years, and basically there will be no accidents. The tourists are also very friendly, and nothing out of the ordinary has happened. This kind of warning power should be just in case. In short, everyone just have fun, let's go Gather in the limousine after you finish, our walking distance is shorter than yours, so you must pay attention to the direction of the limousine when you leave." Zhang Yan interrupted the female officer's instructions and instructed the four juniors.

"Yes." Li Hui nodded.

Jiang Ruan's hand was under the cover of the clothes, caressing Mu Zexi's hand.The big dry hands are still very warm, and the fingers can be tightly wrapped.

The limousine slowly drove into the entrance of Shengli Avenue. Before getting out of the car, Jiang Ruan could hear the cheers from around.Through the translucent window, many citizens gathered outside the car, looking in curiously.

"Victory Day is not owned by the royal family, it is a festival that belongs to everyone. At the beginning, it was to get through the most difficult years and use the festival to encourage yourself. Now it is a public holiday, which is completely a kind of carnival. The royal family will also take this opportunity to come and Everyone get close. Have you seen that fence? You are going to get off there." Zhang Yan nodded and pointed out the window.

"Let's go." When the car stopped, Li Hui and the others got up immediately. Jiang Ruan patted Mu Zexi, who was distracted, and dragged him out of the car.

"En." Mu Zexi responded in a low voice, carefully protecting Jiang Ruan's body to prevent him from being squeezed by the crowd outside the car.Wrapped Kerry in one hand, protecting the noisy little guy at his waist.

However, this worry was relieved by the considerate waiter.

The starting point of Victory Avenue gathered a lot of media, and there are many residents who can wait here to get in touch with the royal family.As soon as Li Hui and others got out of the car door, the flashlights of the media lit up.

"Mr. Li, are you going to announce the marriage news this time?"

"His Royal Highness, are you in charge of the capital reduction plan of the military department?"

"Hello, Second Highness, it's a pleasure to meet you!"

"Jiang Jiang! We just saw the announcement on the royal family's homepage. May I ask if you have settled down with His Highness the Second Highness?"

The group of four was overwhelmed by the influx of questions from the media.And the surrounding discussion and cheers became louder and louder, all of which made Jiang Ruan uncomfortable.

"Yes." Mu Zexi hugged Jiang Ruan vaguely, and took over the conversation from the media. "If you still have any questions about the announcement, welcome to chat again at the banquet."

"Then why did the royal family not let you be exposed to the public eye at the beginning, but like your elder brother, only announced it when you were about to get married? Is it to let you find a suitable partner?" a reporter asked curiously.

"It makes sense." Li Hui laughed.

"This is my lover, Jiang Ruan. Please take care of me in the future." Mu Zexi replied solemnly.

"Hey, you're not married yet. Look at your tone..." Jiang Ruan gritted her teeth and heard friendly laughter from around her.

"Mr. Jiang, you are also a member of the royal family now. There was a statement in the morning that you had an intimate relationship with His Highness the Second Highness in order to enter the royal family. What do you say?" the reporter asked boldly.

"It's nothing, I didn't know he was a member of the royal family when he was hanging around me and asked me to cook noodles for him." Jiang Ruan pouted.

"Lai cook noodles at your place?" The reporter got excited when he caught the revelation in the words.

"Yes, before my identity was revealed, I was Ruan Ruan's roommate. I was hungry that day, and then..." Mu Zexi pursed his lips, without the slightest bit of embarrassment from eating.

"So you fell in love with Jiang Jiang's cooking skills first, and then you fell in love with this person?" The reporter laughed.The attitude of the royal family on Victory Day was very good, and they dared to ask any questions.

"So it's like this, if I wasn't a cook, would you like me?" Jiang Ruan narrowed her eyes, also waiting for Mu Zexi's answer.

Mu Zexi really didn't think about it that way, but he didn't know how to answer for a while. "There is nothing, talent cannot be divided."

"Meow—" Kerry, who was stuck at the waist, finally couldn't help it, scratched his master's arm, and howled unbearably.

The soft and soft voice was particularly obvious, and everyone's eyes were immediately attracted.The onlookers all let out exclamations of surprise, and many cat lovers held their faces, apparently taken aback by Kerry's cute appearance.

"Hey, this little cutie!"

"Is this the cat raised by His Highness the Second Highness?"

"It feels like it was raised by Jiang Jiang."

"But the live broadcast didn't show up before, did you just raise it?"

"It was just raised, and its name is Kerry. Come on, do you want to say hello to everyone?" Jiang Ruan nodded, pushing Mu Zexi closer to the camera.

"Meow? Meow——" Kerry's big face was sent to the camera by his master. The distance was so close that a pair of round cat eyes almost met.

"It's really cute. In the future, the two of them will be raised together, right?" The reporter smiled knowingly, and continued the topic.

Mu Zexi didn't answer, but looked at Jiang Ruan instead.

"It should be getting married, but it hasn't been confirmed yet." Jiang Ruan suddenly felt that it was too early to say these things.But it was not easy to save Mu Zexi's face, so he agreed.

"Your Highness, let's start the next process?" The waiter has been grasping the time, and when the media's questions are almost finished, he will start to grasp the rhythm of the parade.

Jiang Ruan got the cake and lollipops produced by Taoqianzhai from the waiter, grabbed a handful and put them in his hands, and distributed them to the surrounding tourists.

Many tourists came here with their families, and when they saw the royal family handing out desserts, they happily accepted them.Suddenly, Jiang Ruan saw a child who was alone with a schoolbag on his back and was pushed to the front by the crowd, looking quite embarrassed.But seeing Jiang Ruan approaching, his face became happy.

"Brother, brother! Are you a prince?" A child in a student uniform leaped over the fence and happily took the candy from Jiang Ruan's hand.

"No. Are you alone?" Jiang Ruan shook his head, he was indeed not a prince.

"Who made this, it looks so good!" The child stared at the exquisitely shaped cake lollipop in his hand.

"It was designed by everyone, and then the chef made it in the kitchen." Jiang Ruan answered his questions attentively while distributing candies to the tourists around him.

"Then can I also be a cook?" The child frowned. "There's only one, I want to make it for my parents. My parents didn't come..."

"I'll give you two more, remember to take them back, don't crush them." Hearing this, Jiang Ruan turned around and took two more from the waiter's hand. "Why didn't Mom and Dad come?"

"Mom is in the hospital, and Dad is taking care of Mom. They asked me to come and see the Victory Day..." The child said that the parents who couldn't come were obviously a little depressed. "Brother, do you think I can become a cook? I'll cook for my mother first..."

Jiang Ruan paused suddenly, blinked for a while, and her voice was so low that she seemed to be whispering. "Yes, study hard, and you can learn when you grow up."

Hearing Jiang Ruan's reply, the child happily squeezed out of the crowd with three lollipops after thanking him.

Jiang Ruan was stunned, and did not recover until Mu Zexi hugged Kerry and called him.

"It's time to get in the car. Let the waiter do the distribution in front, and the banquet is about to begin." Just as Mu Zexi finished speaking, he found that Jiang Ruan's expression was a little wrong. "What's wrong? What happened?"

"No, I'm just distracted." Jiang Ruan shook his head. "Are we also sitting with Li Hui and the others when we eat?"

Mu Zexi nodded, and led Jiang Ruan back to the car.

***

The end of Victory Avenue is connected to the largest square in Capital Star.The man-made fountain is working dutifully, and the air is full of water vapor.Many guests were already seated, and when the royal family's vehicles drove over, they all looked over.

Under the guidance of the guards, the royal couple got out of the car first.Walked through the symbolic red carpet of the ceremony and came to the speech platform.Jiang Ruan followed Mu Zexi's movements and stood in the back row, looking down at all the guests and the delicacies of various flavors on the long table.

"Good afternoon, welcome to the celebration banquet on Victory Day. First of all, our empire is still peaceful and healthy this year. Thank you for your concerted efforts. Thank you all citizens for supporting our work." Mu Jiang's tone was calm and warm Without losing solemnity. "During this year, we redeveloped the three residential stars, effectively improving the living standards of the residents there. We have conducted a review of military expenditures at the border, and will transfer a large amount of military expenditures to livelihood projects in a peaceful environment... "

There was applause from the audience, and many members of the citizen representative area stood up, paying tribute to the core of imperial power from a distance.

"This Victory Day, thank you all for taking the time to come. And I am very grateful to the chief chef of the God of Cookery Festival, Mr. Jiang Ruan, who provided the full meal support for the Victory Day."

This time, the cheers from the audience were much smaller.Many people were looking across Mujiang to the back row.Discussions continued one after another, and the applause gradually became more and more enthusiastic.

"Of course, speaking of Jiang Ruan, everyone has noticed the changes in the royal family members' information this year, right?" Mu Jiang changed the topic. "This time, my second son, Mu Zexi, and his partner, Jiang Ruan, will officially enter the public eye. They are still very young, and they will officially enter the public eye. If there is anything wrong with their behavior, please forgive me. Discipline more."

Mu Zexi lowered his head and touched the tip of his nose imperceptibly, obviously not used to this kind of calligraphy.

"Also, my eldest son is about to announce his marriage. The two got married very early, and finally they can set a date for their wedding. I hope everyone will come here at that time." Mu Jiang turned sideways. "Let my eldest son speak first."

Mu Jiuqiang was exactly the same as Mu Jiang, and he dismissed them with few words.Originally prepared a speech draft of more than ten minutes, Mu Jiuqiang finished reading it in a few minutes.

The guests in the audience are all regulars in the political and economic circles, and they are familiar with Mu Jiuqiang's personality.Just when a new member of the royal family appeared, all eyes focused on Mu Zexi.

Mu Zexi didn't plan to speak alone, and when he received the guidance on the stage, he directly took Jiang Ruan's hand and walked forward.

"Hi everyone, I'm Mu Zexi, thank you. This is my lover Jiang Ruan, I hope you will support me a lot." Mu Zexi glanced at the audience indifferently, greeted simply and prepared to go down.

Jiang Ruan blinked, and was about to follow Mu Zexi's movements, but Zhang Yan stopped her.

"Jiang Jiang, don't leave in a hurry, you can also talk about it." Zhang Yan smiled. "Everyone didn't know you before, so they must be very curious about you."

"Okay." Jiang Ruan nodded obediently, secretly scratched the palms of the clasped hands, and went to the podium alone.

"Cough, thank you all. I'm Mu Zexi's lover." Jiang Ruan paused for a moment, as if to organize his words. "I'm a cook, and I usually devote myself to making food. Did you receive the small snacks for Victory Day just now? Is the taste okay?"

Before Jiang Ruan finished speaking, the atmosphere in the audience became heated.The applause was more enthusiastic than ever, and some people simply picked up the distributed cake lollipops and waved them.

"As long as it suits your appetite, I hope you can have a good meal. Of course, if you really like this taste, welcome to the military cafeteria and Taoqianzhai to taste it again." He stopped with a chuckle.

When the audience heard the canteen of the military headquarters, they immediately laughed too.Who doesn't know that the canteen of the military headquarters was just a decoration a few years ago, and when Jiang Ruan came, it immediately became a sweet pastry for the sons of various families to find a home.

With the advancement of the military's meal plan, many details of the operation are still kept secret.Only through Jiang Ruan's live broadcast, the dishes have become semi-public, and the distribution of many details is still unclear to the public.

But they are different, they are all people in the circle.Even the slightest sign of trouble is clearly inquired about.The number of new dishes released by the military has increased from dozens to more than 100, which shows Jiang Ruan's skill and the determination of the military.

Military cafeteria?It is indeed possible to find a reason to have a meal...

The end of the speech is still carried out by Mu Jiang, and it will be over in a few sentences.Stimulated by Jiang Ruan's language, everyone in the audience turned their attention to the many unopened dishes on the table.As soon as the royal family was seated, they called for the waiters to come and open the table.

A cup of bamboo fungus and cordyceps soup, the lotus seeds in the clear soup are soft and glutinous, the bamboo fungus is fluffy and crisp, and the precious cordyceps makes the nutrition of the whole soup more than one grade.The oily spring bamboo shoots and braised pork are paired with aniseed ingredients, which are browned with rock sugar and soft enough to be pierced with a chopstick.

The roasted chicken with pesto butter is a crowd-pleaser, attracting everyone's attention the moment the lid is lifted.Surprisingly, not only the two chicken legs, but also other parts are full of flavor.The chicken skin is crispy and salty, the chicken is locked in moisture, the garlic is very appetizing, and the butter gives a moist and delicate taste.

Stewed mutton rice is the most sincere dish. Before serving the rice, the obvious meat pieces are carefully stir-fried by the cooks with deep knowledge. They are fried in the rice and other ingredients are added to make the simple rice more delicious. all available.

The counterpart to mutton stewed rice is the spicy toothpick beef with cold cuts.The finger-sized pieces of beef are very chewy, and they are placed on a plate with small bamboo sticks inserted, so that curious guests who reach out their hands can taste a bit of the spicy taste of burning ears.

Cantaloupe panna cotta is a popular fruit-style dessert after the toothpick beef. After the spicy beef, the slightly iced cantaloupe pulp, together with the tender and refreshing panna cotta, makes the toothpick beef heart feel sympathetic The guests showed their glory again.

Goji berry and sesame glutinous rice balls are the favorite of all female companions.A bowl of warm sweet soup with bright red goji berries in it, and round white glutinous rice balls with flexible glutinous rice skin and fragrant sesame filling, sinking and floating in the soup, won the hearts of the ladies.

Fat beef in sour soup is not a dish that everyone can eat. Many guests can bear the heavy taste of beef with toothpicks, but they are afraid of fat beef in sour soup.The sour soup is bubbling, gurgling out a sour and spicy taste, the thin slices of snowflake fat beef are cooked in the boiling soup, the meat is delicate in the mouth, the unique aroma of beef and the overbearing style of sour soup, It can be regarded as the flower of Gaoling at the banquet.

Pan-fried cod meat is the choice of guests who like light taste.There are very few cod bones, and the chef has prepared it in advance, so that children can eat it with confidence.

And all the dishes that small animals can eat are on the way.

Kerry sat upright on the small chair specially made for her. Although he was close to Mu Zexi, his eyes kept looking at Jiang Ruan.As soon as Jiang Ruan raised his head and waved, he turned his head and stared straight at it, for fear of missing something.

"Hello, here is a special animal meal, thank you." Jiang Ruan specially told the back kitchen the day before, and also specially reserved a meal for the fat guy around him.

Meals were served quickly.Different from the dishes of the guests, the dishes of the small animals are served on cute plates and covered with delicate little lids.Kerry stretched out his front paw curiously, and one paw stuck to the small peach blossom carving on the cover.

"Do you still want to eat?" Jiang Ruan glanced at Kerry, and helplessly pushed aside her tiny fur paws, and lifted the lid of the lunch box for the delicate cat master.

There are several partitions in the special box, and ingredients of different colors can be stirred carefully in the middle.Kerry watched as Jiang Ruan picked up the spoon, mixed the chicken breast, salmon slices, carrots, and several egg yolks in the box, and delivered it to his mouth.

"Meow—" Kerry didn't rush to eat first, but rubbed his face against the owner's arm first.

Jiang Ruan froze suddenly, and the small animal's warm ear tips and tiny fluff rubbed against her body.Although very unaccustomed, it seems to be not bad?
