When Ji Han and his men traveled to the Three Kingdoms crew

Chapter 689 Zhuge Grilled Fish
"Delicious? Hey, you asked the right person. Since you are the prime minister, how can you not try Zhuge grilled fish?"

"Zhuge grilled fish?"

Everyone in Ji Han looked at each other, and for a moment they thought of the Zhang Fei beef.

"Okay, thank you, old man."

Zhen De thanked the old man, drank the tea in the cup, and led Ji Han and his group to Zhuge Grilled Fish Restaurant.

On the way, Pang Tong couldn't help saying, "Kong Ming, when you mention grilled fish, it reminds me of a long time ago when we were still studying in Jingzhou and Kong Ming often went fishing. Do you think this grilled fish could have been made by Kong Ming?"

Fa Zheng laughed out loud: "That's indeed possible."

"If that's the case, that's great. After steamed buns, I also came up with grilled fish." Zhuge Liang smiled.

Suddenly, the sound of a flute floated from the alley. Following the sound, it turned out to be the master who made the candy figures. With his hands like dead branches, he made a general in a white robe and armor holding a spear. It looked so lifelike. Liu Chan's eyes sparkled and he blurted out, "This is General Zhao Yun!"

The more Liu Chan looked, the happier he became. "Not only is General Zhao here, but there's also Uncle Liu, Second Master Guan, Third Master Zhang, and Prime Minister Zhuge!"

Everyone's attention was drawn to Liu Chan, and they took a closer look at the candy man stall. Just as Liu Chan said, the candy men on the stall were all highly identified, including Liu Xuande with big ears, Guan Yu with a red face and long beard, Zhang Yide with a black face, and Zhuge Kongming with a feather fan and a long scarf.
"Do you want them, Adou? Uncle will buy them all for you." Mi Zhu touched Liu Chan's head and bought all the candy figurines on the candy figurine maker's stall with a wave of his hand. The candy figurine maker was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling.

If it was someone else, Liu Bei would definitely stop him. Sugar man, sugar man, it sounds like a lot of sugar. Broken teeth are a small matter, but letting Liu Chan, who is back on track, become indulgent by accident is a big deal.

But Mi Zhu helped him so much that he even put his entire fortune into it.

Besides, it is natural for an uncle to love his nephew.

After a little thought, Liu Bei decided to give a reminder, "Mr. Mi, eating too much sugar is not good for you. You can't let Ah Dou do what he wants."

"Uncle Liu, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of Adou."

"With Mr. Mi's words, I feel relieved."

Liu Chan came to Zhao Yun with the candy figure of Zhao Yun in his hand. A trace of reluctance appeared on his face, but when he looked at Zhao Yun's face, this reluctance disappeared in an instant. "Uncle Zhao, this is for you!"

Before Zhao Yun received the candy figure, he could see that Liu Chan liked it very much. He didn't expect Liu Chan to give him the candy figure. Seeing Liu Chan's serious look, Zhao Yun felt embarrassed to refuse Liu Chan's kindness. He took the candy figure and praised it, "It looks like it, it really looks like it."

"Thank you, Your Highness. I like this candy man very much."

Liu Chan laughed so hard that his nose was covered with snot bubbles, "As long as Uncle Zhao likes it!"

Seeing this, Liu Bei couldn't help but laugh and said, "This kid."

,,,

As Ji Han and his group walked, the spicy aroma filled their noses unknowingly.

Zhen De stopped and looked down at his phone, "We're here. This is it."

Ji Han and his people looked up and saw a huge sign. The most eye-catching thing on the sign was Zhuge Grilled Fish and the pinyin of Zhuge Grilled Fish. These four characters and their pinyin looked round and different in size. Unlike the familiar strangeness of other shops in Jinli Ancient Street, this style perfectly matched their impression of modern times. Zhuge Liang was slightly stunned, and then laughed dumbly.

The black font below "Zhuge Grilled Fish" attracted the attention of everyone in Ji Han. Zhang Fei wondered, "What does Director Zhen of Chongqing Intangible Cultural Heritage mean by this intangible cultural heritage?"

"Intangible cultural heritage, right? Intangible cultural heritage refers to the traditional cultural expressions passed down from generation to generation by the people of all ethnic groups in my country, such as certain inherited skills, certain traditional festivals and folk customs. To put it simply, calligraphy, painting, dance, acrobatics, etc. are all considered intangible cultural heritage."

"Wait. Intangible cultural heritage? Isn't this a real inheritance? Could it be that this grilled fish was really invented by Prime Minister Zhuge?"

"It's hard to say. By the way, Zhang Fei beef seems to be a non-legacy as well."

"Yeah, I see."

"Don't stand there, teachers, please go in."

Zhen De smiled at Ji Han and the others, and walked into Zhuge Grilled Fish Restaurant. With the help of the front desk, everyone was divided into four tables like in the previous hot pot restaurant.

The boss recognized Ji Han and his group and asked for their autographs with satisfaction.

Zhang Fei asked, "Boss, why are you called Zhuge Grilled Fish?"

"Mr. Zhang, you don't know. According to legend, during the Three Kingdoms period, Zhuge Liang loved fishing before he came out of the mountains. One day, Zhuge Liang was fishing by the river and it suddenly started to rain. Zhuge Liang hurriedly took shelter from the rain. He was so hungry that he grilled the fish he caught. As soon as the fish was grilled, the rain stopped. So Zhuge Liang took the grilled fish home, and his family used various seasonings to make sauce and poured it on the fish. Unexpectedly, it tasted very delicious. Later, after Liu Bei visited Zhuge Liang three times to invite him out of the mountains, Zhuge Liang couldn't forget this way of eating, so he spread it around. Everyone called this way of eating fish Zhuge Grilled Fish."

"Of course there is another saying. In the late Eastern Han Dynasty, an ancestor of the Wu family named Wu Mao invented a method of making grilled fish. The technique was unique and the taste was wonderful, which Zhuge Liang loved very much. After Liu Bei became emperor, Zhuge Liang recommended Wu Mao to the palace as an imperial chef. Since then, this unique skill has been passed down from generation to generation by the descendants of the Wu family and has become an indispensable delicacy in royal banquets of all dynasties. Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty also bestowed the name 'Zhuge Grilled Fish' on it." The shop owner said vividly.

Pang Tong looked at Zhuge Liang and said with emotion: "It's a prophecy. I didn't expect that Zhuge Grilled Fish is really related to Kong Ming."

"Mr. Zhuge liked fishing before, maybe he will be able to make Zhuge grilled fish in the future." Liu Bei smiled.

Zhuge Liang became curious. What did this grilled fish look like?

Soon after, the iron plate with the grilled fish was brought up. The rising hot air, wrapped in the spices, hit my face, and the aroma penetrated my nose, arousing the appetite in my stomach. Looking down, the grass carp with a golden hue was lying in the red soup, and the oil was bursting on the surface of the bubbling red soup. The fish skin curled up to a burnt yellow under the charcoal fire, and the green and red pepper rings and purple garlic cloves were scattered around the fish, floating in the gurgling soup. The dark red bean paste spread out in the oil, as if to soak the sauce into every inch of the fish.

"Eat, eat, eat!"

Ji Han and his men picked up their chopsticks, which made a crackling sound as they poked through the crispy fish skin. The fish meat they picked up was soaked in red soup and put into their mouths. The spicy taste of Sichuan pepper first attacked their taste buds and then spread along their throats. When they chewed, although it was numbing and spicy, the outer layer was fragrant and the inner layer was delicate and sweet.

The konjac knots spread out in the soup, like translucent butterflies. The old tofu soaked up the soup and played a round dance with the lettuce, black fungus and lotus root slices in the boiling soup. Pick up the konjac knots and taste them. They are smooth and elastic, and every bite is full of surprises. The old tofu tastes amazing. The moment you bite it, the salty aroma of the bean paste mixed with the delicious aroma of butter hits your taste buds. As soon as the lettuce enters your mouth, the spicy taste explodes on the tip of your tongue without a few chews.

As Ji Han and his group ate, beads of sweat appeared on their foreheads. They were eating so happily.

When the last piece of fish was stuffed into everyone's mouth, they still felt a little unsatisfied.

Liu Bei thought: No wonder the Prime Minister likes him so much, Wu Mao, right? I'll remember this person. If I have a chance, I'll see if I can recruit him into my mansion so that I can cook fish for the Prime Minister in the future.

Zhuge Liang thought to himself: It seems that my lord likes this grilled fish very much. I will try to make it when I have free time and then invite my lord to taste it together.
