Poor family farming: the sick and weak scholar's wife is very sturdy

With a smile on his face, Li Yuxuan gave a few instructions in Yu Xilin's ear, and then found a seat and sat down.

After hearing this, Yu Xilin nodded, turned around and said:
"My lord is very interested in this culinary competition, so I invite you two to try again!"

Although Chen Yun had 1 people who were unwilling, he still went to the back kitchen.

Lin Xiao followed suit contentedly.

It was still the three dishes, and Lin Xiao handled them with ease.

After a while, the dishes made by both parties were presented in front of everyone!

It's still the dishes I ate just now.

Yu Xilin respectfully served Li Yu with vegetables, and the first thing she tasted was the wild pork made by Chen Yun.

"Well, the meat is fresh and tender, no different from the one made by the imperial chef."

Chen Yun, who was praised by Li Yuxuan, immediately beamed with joy, and looked at Lin Xiao proudly.

It seems to be telling Lin Xiao, I am amazing, what can you do with me?
Lin Xiaobai glanced at him and didn't bother to talk to him.

After a while, Li Yujuan had finished trying the three dishes Chen Yun had cooked, and he was well-behaved, and he couldn't find any faults.

"My lord, try this."

Yu Xilin continued to distribute dishes for Li Yu, this time the dishes were made by Lin Xiao.

"This is... a poached egg?"

Li Yu frowned, he is a majestic prince, how could he give him poached eggs that ordinary people eat?
"Reporting to my lord, this is indeed a poached egg, but the taste will definitely make you unforgettable!"

Lin Xiao said lightly.

He cursed secretly in his heart: "Hmph, what a big-tailed wolf! The taste of this dish made by my mother is definitely not much worse than that of the imperial chef! If you don't believe me, you can try it!"

"Oh! What a big tone! I want to see how to make this king unforgettable!"

Li Yuxuan sneered, then picked up a piece of poached egg, put it near his mouth and bit it, his face suddenly changed.

This taste!
So delicious! ! ! !
Do not!
It is simply delicious!
An incomparably rich fragrance filled the mouth, which made Li Yufan's heart beat much faster.

What kind of ghost dish is this? !
This is the delicacy of the world!
Li Yuxuan couldn't help but ate another piece.

"How is it? My lord, how does it taste?"

Lin Xiaoming asked knowingly.

"Delicious! It's so delicious! This is the first time this king has eaten such a delicious dish of yours! It's simply unforgettable!"

Li Yuxuan clapped his hands excitedly and said, as if he was reminiscing about the taste just now.

"That's good! My lord, please taste the other two dishes!"

Yu Xilin was about to serve vegetables, but Li Yuping hurriedly stopped him:
"The king will come in person!"

After all, he couldn't wait to taste the other two dishes.

Every time he tasted it, his face showed surprise, and it became more and more difficult to hide his surprise.

In the end, Li Yuxuan didn't care about his image, and asked Yu Xilin to make him a big bowl of white rice, and started to gobble it up.

It wasn't until all the dishes were eaten that Li Yuxuan touched his chubby belly in satisfaction and let out a long sigh of satisfaction. Then he raised his head and looked at Lin Xiao opposite, with a hint of admiration in his eyes, he asked with a smile :
"Little brother, what's your name? Your cooking skills are so superb, can you join me as a disciple of this king?"

Lin Xiao shook his head slightly when he heard the words, and refused:

"Thank you, my lord, for your kindness, but I don't think my culinary skills can reach that level. I hope my lord can find another wise man!"

Li Yu raised her eyebrows lightly when she heard this, and a puzzled look flashed in her eyes.

It is a lucrative job to be a chef in the palace, not to mention the generous monthly salary, the countless benefits that just being a chef can bring.

Not only can you enjoy all kinds of preferential treatment in the palace, but you can also see the emperor often. If you can get the favor of the emperor, your future will be limitless!

But Lin Xiao refused. Could it be that this young man is really proud?
Impossible, judging by his age, how proud can he be?

Although Li Yuxuan was puzzled in his heart, he still kept a smile on his face. He believed that his charm could still conquer the opponent.

He smiled and asked, "Working as an errand in the palace is a good thing that everyone dreams of. Can you tell me why I refused?"

"Reporting to my lord, the kid actually doesn't know how to cook!"

Lin Xiao told the truth honestly.

Li Yu's eyes widened and his mouth opened wide, as if frightened.

He looked at Lin Xiao incredulously, and muttered to himself:

"Can't cook?"

What did he just hear?
This young man actually said he couldn't cook!

Then what did he eat just now? !

"Actually, this is the secret of my delicious cooking!"

Seeing that the time was ripe, Lin Xiao presented a small bamboo tube engraved with a special totem to Li Yufan.

Li Yupeng reached out to pick it up, put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed it.

"This is……"

"salt."

Li Yuxuan's expression froze in an instant, and his whole body froze for a long time before he uttered two words from between his teeth:

"salt?!"

Of course he knew the salt.

If you just use salt to cook, the taste is really extraordinary, but...

If only table salt is used, even the royal salt will have a slight bitter taste, but the dishes made by Lin Xiao do not have the slightest bitter taste, and the taste is very delicious.

Li Yupan carefully poured the salt in the bamboo tube into the palm of his hand.

Flawless!

He licked it with the tip of his tongue.

Ah!
Salty, fresh, without bitterness, very smooth.

This is definitely the top table salt, and it is definitely more delicious than the royal salt!
This.
How can this be? !
Where did he get such top-quality table salt!

Li Yuxuan's heart was full of doubts.

His eyes were fixed on Lin Xiao, trying to see some clues from Lin Xiao's face.

But apart from the calm and indifferent expression on Lin Xiao's face, there was no abnormality at all, as if he was no stranger to Li Yuxuan's shock.

"Where did you get all this top-quality table salt?"

Li Yuxuan couldn't help asking.

Lin Xiao smiled lightly when he heard the words, and replied:
"These things are not where the kid got them, but the kid made them himself."

Li Yu was stunned when he heard the words, and his eyes were full of disbelief:

Made it yourself? !

Li Yu looked carefully at the thin-skinned and tender guy in front of him.

Could it be that he is the strange person that Brother Nine Emperors and Bai Zhancheng mentioned?

I think when he was ordered to go to the seaside town to investigate the cause of Zhao Xiao's death, he met Li Yuyan and Bai Zhancheng once.

In addition to talking about some important secrets, they also talked about a strange man who could transform ordinary bows into continuous bows and make salt by himself.

At that time Li Yuyan thought that Li Yuyan deliberately fabricated it in order to win him into the gang as soon as possible.

You must know that the salt-making technique has always been mastered by their royal specialists, and outsiders cannot learn and make it at all!

So he always thought it was just a gimmick made up by Li Yuyan.

But what he never expected was that the strange person Li Yuyan and Bai Zhancheng spoke of was standing in front of him at this moment!
