I rely on food to guide the whole harem

Jin Yuchu didn't want to stay in the room when he recovered from his injury, and went to the imperial dining room with his arms hanging, only to find that there were traces of fireworks in Tang Yinjiang's cubicle, but there was no one there.He walked to the door and saw the two familiar dishes on the stove, one of which was his golden lionfish.

He couldn't help but took a closer look. The golden lionfish was in excellent condition. He took a bite to try it, and the taste was not much different from when he made it with all his strength. He was shocked and turned his attention to another dish.

this is not……?When he saw the tofu cut into the shape of a chrysanthemum, he frowned and took a spoonful into his mouth. His frown deepened immediately.He went to the door to summon the handyman who was tidying up, and asked, "Who made these two dishes?"

The handyman was busy all day, and of course he didn't care who was cooking, but he knew who this small cubicle belonged to, and he also saw Tang Yinjiang was staying in the cubicle just now, "It seems to be Aunt Yinjiang. "

When Jin Yuchu heard that it was indeed Tang Yinjiang, his brows relaxed a little, and he even faintly showed some satisfaction.

In the early morning of the next day, Tang Yinjiang woke up faintly. The night without any entertainment in ancient times allowed her to develop a biological clock of going to bed early and getting up early. Stretching her waist, she saw Qi Yangui who was already neatly dressed and sitting by the window. Only then did she realize that there was an extra person in the room, so she quickly got up and prepared to go out early to block Xiaotao who would come to the room to wait for her to wake up and wash.

"Stay in my room these two days and don't go out. This face is too conspicuous."

These words sounded like a husband telling his beautiful wife not to go out to attract bees and butterflies before going out, Qi Yangui smiled, and the first ray of morning light came in, making his smile a bit dazzling.

Tang Yinjiang was stunned for a moment, then walked away in embarrassment. She finally understood why the groupies screamed when they faced the handsome faces of celebrities.

A delicate and unprovocative face smiles softly at you, who can resist this?Slow down and she will call out!

As soon as Tang Yinjiang arrived at the imperial dining room, Jin Yuchu was already waiting at the door, "I saw my two dishes on your stove, did you cook them?"

"No."

"Want to lie to me? Who else but you, I know the skills of everyone in the imperial dining room."

"..." Actually, you don't know anything about my skills, Tang Yinjiang is a little speechless, but he can't tell people that he brought the cook in from outside, otherwise the prince's plan will be exposed.

Seeing her silence, Jin Yuchu took it as acquiescence, and said with relief: "It's no wonder that I have to be willing to ask for my recipes. It turns out that I already have such a level. The production method can be deduced from the materials alone."

Tang Yinjiang: "..."

"But you made a mistake. The tofu of Wensi Tofu is not like this. This is a dish that is extremely demanding of knife skills. The tofu must be cut into thin filaments that can be pierced with a needle. It is as light as disappearing in the water, so that there is no tofu in the eyes. It's tofu."

Isn't that still tofu?What's the difference?Tang Yinjiang looked confused, but seeing Jin Yuchu's serious face, he couldn't say such words, so he could only ask: "Why do you help me? I have always refused to ask you to be my teacher, and this time I did it secretly. The dishes you want to come up with."

"Because food cannot be treated carelessly. As long as it is presented to the diners, it is the sincerity of the chef. I do not allow flawed dishes to be presented as imperial meals. This is my bottom line as an imperial chef, a cook, and has nothing to do with honor."

Jin Yuchu's words made people awe-inspiring, Tang Yinjiang was silent for a while, and under his guidance, he cut out shredded tofu that met the requirements.Seeing Jia Yuchu entering the imperial dining room from a distance, he quickly found an excuse to dismiss Jin Yuchu.

Explain to Jia Yuchu the mistakes and omissions of this dish, but his knife skills can't cut out such slender tofu shreds every time, so he had to have Tang Yinjiang with a system to do it for him. This Wensi tofu dish.

In a blink of an eye, it was the day of the birthday banquet. Various colored sheds were set up everywhere in the palace to celebrate the emperor's birthday to display the birthday gifts presented by the officials. After the congratulations were divided, a banquet was held in the Golden Palace for all the officials, and the music played, and the dancers danced lightly, singing and dancing.

A series of delicacies served in exquisite utensils were presented to the tables of the emperor and ministers, spreading out everywhere.The emperor and his courtiers talked freely about state affairs and family affairs, and the atmosphere was harmonious.

The empress was also dressed up, and sat on a slightly lower platform next to the emperor, eating in silence without interrupting. The princes sat on the two sides closest to the empress's high platform, and the rest of the concubines were not eligible to attend.

"Wei Qing's family, I heard that your family had a baby yesterday. This son is very lucky."

"Thanks to His Majesty's blessing..."

"Reward! Hahaha..."

"The imperial examination is just around the corner, and I have to tell you a few words. This is to select scholars for the country, and there should be no favoritism. Have you drafted the questions for this exam?"

"Return to Your Majesty, not yet."

"Oh? Can the invigilator be selected?"

Mr. Wei was about to answer, when the fifth prince was about to get up to ask for an errand, several young eunuchs carried an ordinary wine jar to the main hall, and together they carried the broken wine jar onto the imperial table , everyone was curious and surprised, the emperor also stopped talking and pulled his face down.

"What is this?"

Eunuch Li, who was serving meals beside the emperor, kept paying attention to the names of the dishes reported at the door, bowed and said: "Return to Your Majesty, this is the main dish of this birthday banquet 'Buddha Jumping over the Wall'."

Everyone was in an uproar and couldn't help talking.

"Why are the wine jars brought up?"

"This is still the main dish. Are there any delicate utensils in the palace?"

Seeing the emperor's uneasy expression, Eunuch Li turned around and scolded: "Who ordered the wine jar to be brought up? This is disrespectful! Hurry up and remove it."

The Empress opened her mouth slowly: "Your Majesty, I feel that the Imperial Dining Room will not make such a big mistake at an important birthday banquet, and it may not necessarily have a special purpose."

Although the emperor didn't like it, but the queen said so, and in front of all the civil and military officials, it was not easy to get angry, so she cast a look over, and Eunuch Li lifted the lid of the wine jar, and found that there were still a few pieces of wine under the lid. Soaked dried lotus leaves.

As the lotus leaves were lifted, a powerful and strong fragrance swept over like waves in an instant, and the fragrance drifted for thousands of miles.

"smell good……"

The officials who were gossiping about the wine jar just now suddenly stopped talking, and involuntarily took a deep breath, just smelling the fragrance can make people salivate.

He had never smelled such a strong and delicious smell, even the emperor couldn't help sniffling, then glanced at the officials embarrassedly, seeing that no one noticed his gaffe, he coughed twice.

Eunuch Li got the signal, and suddenly woke up from the intoxicating smell of meat, and quickly took out a bowl and presented it to the emperor.

Everyone watched with anticipation as the emperor put a mouthful of soup into his mouth. The soup was thick and fragrant, and dozens of complex flavors of delicacies from mountains and seas were integrated into one. I want to be immortal.

The emperor couldn't bear it, and took another piece of abalone to eat. After a long time of stewing, the super soft abalone became thick and soft, and the abalone juice gushed out after one bite, and each bite would be slightly sticky to the teeth. An obvious sweetness burst out, and the rich deliciousness overflowed the mouth.

"Okay, it's really delicious!" The emperor swallowed the abalone in his mouth and expressed his sincere admiration.

After the emperor finished his first mouthful of food, the Buddha Tiaoqiang, which had been divided into small bowls, was delivered to the low tables of the ministers, and there was only the endless sound of chewing in the hall.

Dozens of different meat dishes are aged and condensed in one bowl, but each retains its original unique flavor. The taste is soft and tender, with delicate layers and distinct tastes.

The emperor ate another bowl of Buddha jumping over the wall, "Who made this dish?"

"It's Tang Yin Jiang from the Imperial Dining Room."

"Let her come up."

"Xuan, Tang Yin Jiang Shangdian in the Imperial Dining Room—"

The imperial cooks involved in making birthday banquet dishes would be waiting outside the hall at any time, ready to be called to explain the dishes and listen to the appreciation, so Tang Yinjiang quickly entered the hall to answer.

"Your dish is very good. How do you make it so thick and rich? Why do you use wine jars to serve it?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, this is a servant who takes dozens of delicacies from mountains and seas and stews them for 49 hours. Whether it's flying in the sky or running on the ground and swimming in the water, basically everything you can think of is in this altar. This wine jar is not an ordinary wine jar, it is an aged wine jar that has been filled with Shaoxing wine for hundreds of years. Ye Fengkou sealed all the flavors inside and slowly fermented. The first sip of soup with the lid opened has the strongest flavor. It is true that the Buddha jumped up after eating it, so it is called "Buddha Jumps over the Wall". I hope Your Majesty will forgive me."

The emperor showed a satisfied smile, "Okay, okay, what's wrong with your perfect and sincere heart? Come and reward me!"

Tang Yinjiang remembered the prince's entrustment, and knelt down to report: "This servant is bold and wants to ask His Majesty to give the reward to another person."

"Oh? Why?"

"This birthday banquet can be so successful, this person contributed a lot, and provided a lot of help to the slaves."

"Show him to come forward."

The little eunuch who would inform him ran out and brought in a tall imperial chef. Although his head was lowered so that people could not see his face clearly, the delicate skin he could see made people feel that he should not be wearing this outfit.

Qi Yan walked back to Tang Yinjiang's side and knelt down, and slowly raised his head.In an instant, the emperor's mind was shocked and his face changed drastically. Half of the ministers were in an uproar and half were at a loss.

"Isn't this His Royal Highness?"

"His Royal Highness? Didn't you hear that you were born sick and unable to see the wind? Apart from being a little thinner, your body is not bad."

"Since the prince Heshou, why did he pretend to be an imperial cook?"

Seeing Qi Yangui's face that looked like his own mother, several well-built officials who were obviously military generals couldn't help but burst into tears from the sadness, and the older ones even burst into tears, and couldn't help murmuring: "Shangguan Miss……"

Other officials with bewildered faces turned their heads and asked the people around them quietly why they had never heard of the prince's deeds.

Qi Yangui was free from disturbance, and made a big salute to the hall, his face was solemn and his words were sonorous and forceful.

"My son, congratulations on the birthday of the father, may the father's blessings last forever and live forever."
