After being bound to the learning system in my mother's womb, I became the empress

Chapter 175 Yes, I’m talking about you

The queen glanced at Bai Zhi, who then went down and ordered the palace servants to serve the dishes.

A row of palace maids of uniform height filed in carrying food boxes. Their skirts were light and flowing as they moved around, like the tails of koi fish.

The first course was served to the guests.

"Is this... cabbage?"

"No matter how much the queen advocates simplicity, she can't give us this at the banquet, right?"

"After all, she comes from a low-class background. Even after becoming a queen, she behaves in such a petty and petty manner. She really doesn't deserve to be on the stage."

These people thought they spoke quietly, there were many people in the palace, and the queen was far away, so they couldn't hear them at all.

However, they forgot that the queen was no ordinary person.

Her strength is beyond the imagination of these pampered ladies.

All those little comments of disdain and contempt fell into her ears.

Before the queen could react, Lin Xi said: "A bunch of frogs in a well."

The clear and clear sound of the child's purring milk spread throughout the hall, even arousing echoes because of the vast space inside the hall——

"...the frog in the well...the frog...the frog..."

The hall was so quiet for a moment that you could hear a pin drop, and everyone looked at the little girl who suddenly made a sound in surprise.

what did she say?A frog in a well?

Who is she talking about?
Could it be that you are talking about them? !
That little girl looks to be no more than three years old. She doesn't know what the frog in the well means. I'm afraid the queen didn't teach her!
Is the queen using the words of little girls to ridicule them?

Lin Xi: "Yes, that's right, I'm talking about you."

Madam A stood up, angry and ashamed, "Whose child is this? It's so rude!"

The queen ignored her words and only glanced at Bai Zhi.

Bai Zhi took a step forward, with a dignified posture but a sharp tongue: "This first dish is called boiled cabbage.

“The soup is fresh in color and as clear as white water, but it is actually made from old hens, hams, ribs, chicken breasts, lean minced meat and other ingredients. It took three hours and several processes to make the soup. .

“The cabbage heart is cooked by pouring soup stock from top to bottom, and the layers are opened. It seems simple, but in fact it is quite complicated.

"The reason why we named it 'boiled cabbage' is to cut out the complex and simplify it, and restore the original taste. But I didn't expect that in everyone's eyes, it would become unworthy of publicity and a petty thing?"

Bai Zhi's question was like a loud slap on the face of those whom she had just despised.

Those people were embarrassed for a while, too embarrassed to say a word, and wished they could find a crack in the ground to crawl in.

The queen looked graceful and elegant from beginning to end, without saying a word.

In contrast to the two, the person who had expressed contempt just now felt even more embarrassed.

At this time, a fair and plump girl said in surprise: "This soup is so fresh and mellow. It is not greasy at all when you drink it. It is fresh and refreshing. It is really the best soup I have ever tasted."

The girl was sitting next to Mrs. Zuo Xiang. There was some resemblance between their eyebrows. They were obviously mother and daughter.

Mrs. Zuo Xiang scolded lightly: "Ah Jiao, don't be rude."

Ah Jiao stuck out her tongue and said, "Mom, I'm telling the truth. Try this soup. It's really delicious."

Mrs. Zuo Xiang naturally followed her husband. If her husband is the emperor's party, then she is the queen's party, so her reprimand just now was actually just for show, and she did not really mean to blame her daughter.

There was even some appreciation in my heart.

My silly and greedy daughter helped the Queen by mistake this time.

As a mother, of course I cannot lag behind.

So she picked up the spoon, took a spoonful of soup, and tasted it.

After tasting it, her eyes couldn't help but light up, and she drank two more spoonfuls in succession.

"Queen, this boiled cabbage dish is so delicious. I have been to many banquets, but this is the first time I have tasted such a delicious soup."

Mrs. B was disdainful because Wei's acting was too exaggerated.

It's your first time to taste such a delicious soup, it's just because you have too little experience!
However, after what happened to Mrs. A, Mrs. B did not dare to speak her mind.

She casually picked up the spoon and scooped a spoonful of soup into her mouth.

Um?This soup...how could it be so delicious!There must be something wrong with her tongue!

Take another sip.

It actually feels more delicious!

One mouthful after another, until the spoon touched the bottom, Mrs. B realized that she had finished the whole cup of soup!
This is something that has never happened before.

She looked around awkwardly, only to find that everyone was drinking soup without raising their heads. They were obviously amazed by the deliciousness of the soup.

That's fine, as long as she's not the only one making a fool of herself.

After this incident, no one dared to comment on the dishes at the banquet.

After the boiled cabbage, another dish that no one had ever heard of was presented.

Lion head, braised pork, Buddha jumping over the wall;

Squirrel Mandarin Fish, Kung Pao Chicken, Wensi Tofu...

Each one is more amazing than the other, and each one is more delicious than the last.

Everyone was too busy to talk because their mouths were blocked by delicious food.

Usually these ladies and gentlemen only eat until they are half full, and at most they will put down their chopsticks when they are only half full.

However, at this moment, they couldn't stop at all.

My stomach is full, but my mouth is still clamoring for another bite.

"Ugh, I really can't eat anymore, but this Buddha Jumps Over the Wall is so delicious, let's take one last bite."

"No wonder the Buddha is called to jump over the wall. The Buddha couldn't help but jump over the wall after seeing such delicious food, let alone ordinary people like us?"

"Isn't the Queen born a commoner? Why can she come up with so many new recipes?"

"I have never tasted these dishes, let alone those in the palace, even at the banquets held by the Yipin Family."

When the meal was over, desserts were served.

Red bean double skin milk, cherry blossom jelly, glutinous rice cakes, small cakes.

The four-color desserts, which are as beautiful as works of art, captured the hearts of these noble ladies as soon as they appeared.

"How are these snacks made? They are so exquisite!"

"It looks like a flower. I can't bear to touch it. I want to take it back and put it on display."

"I originally swore I would never take another bite, but now I can't help it anymore."

At the end of the banquet, the guests were all so full that the lipstick on their lips had faded.

How can these noble ladies, who always pay attention to their image and dress up exquisitely from head to toe, tolerate their own imperfections?
They all found excuses to leave and went to "change".

At the banquet, when people talk about changing clothes, some really mean to change clothes, and some are just a euphemism for going to the toilet.

At this time, most of the guests were changing their clothes and running to touch up their makeup.

Of course, after a banquet, they drank a lot of drinks and really wanted to satisfy their physiological needs.

Under the leadership of the palace people, the guests came to the place where grains are reincarnated, that is, the hut.

There is nothing unusual about latrines, but this latrine in Taiye Palace is extraordinary.

It was built according to the design provided by Lin Wushang (actually drawn by Lin Xi) before the queen held the spring banquet.

The main body is made of cement, so it can be completed in a short time.

The wall is plated with a layer of gilt, just like a layer of gold wallpaper, and is inlaid with pearls and various gemstones, making it luxurious and bright.

The floor is paved with marble. The background color of the marble is elegant white. There are natural landscape patterns on the cross-section. After careful stitching by craftsmen, the patterns on the ground look like a coherent and elegant ink painting.

Walking on it is like walking among mountains and rivers.

However, these are not enough to surprise guests.

Until they walked inside.
