Dingguo

Chapter 476, Qionglin Banquet 5

Gu Zaixian was regarded as a well-known scholar in the south of the Yangtze River, but he had a weird temper. The court recruited Gu Zaixian many times to become an official, but he just refused with regret. 【】Later, I simply went to live in a remote country and lived a life of seclusion.

The relocation was actually a matter in the hands of the first emperor, and Zhao Pu knew about it.In fact, Zhao Pu admired Gu Zaixian's talent and learning for a long time.As celebrities, Mr. Gu and Mr. Ji are both masters of learning and have great influence in the altar.

"Yes! If Gu Lao hadn't passed away, the Gu family wouldn't dare to make a move on this garden."

Zhao Pu couldn't help sighing for a while, walked across the Jiuqu Bridge, and started touring the garden.Naturally, there was a story of composing poems to deal with it, so Su San didn't go forward, but just listened to the Jinshi's play!

To be able to show talent in front of the emperor, the opportunity is naturally rare.Therefore, all Jinshi naturally showed their talents and tried their best to deal with it.

So every time Zhao Pu went to a place, he saw that the scenery was good, and he pointed out: "Here, do all the talented people have good poems?"

There will always be a few people scrambling to write the poems, and there will be no more vacancies.And it was almost Zhao Pu's voice that fell, and a good poem came out in a few moments.Hearing that Zhao Pu nodded again and again, he was secretly happy.

Only from this point, Zhao Pu can also pick out these Jinshi from Su San, it took a lot of effort!Otherwise, there will never be such a talent.Therefore, Zhao Pu became happier and more trusting of Su San.

"Is the pavilion surrounded by greenery the Drunken Immortal Tower?"

"Exactly!" Su San responded.

Zhao Pu came to the green and green, and the pavilion loomed, and he became interested too!With the poetic feeling, he pointed around casually, and smiled while pointing: "Red flowers, green willows, cornices; spring, warm water, side. New ministers, old officials, gather together;..."

"Son of Heaven, have a glass of wine, Drunken Immortal!" Seeing Zhao Pu's pause, Su San quickly answered.

Zhao Pu was delighted, and smiled with open arms: "Haha, the drunken immortal in the drunken fairy building! It's wonderful. Let's be immortals for once."

Su San hurriedly laughed and said: "There is no plaque inscribed on this Zuixianlou yet! It's not the real Zuixianlou, why doesn't the emperor inscribe a plaque to make this 'Zuixianlou' known as 'Zuixianlou'?"

At this time, everyone had already walked to the open space outside the Drunken Immortal Building, and saw that the hanging plaque in front of the building was indeed empty!Zhao Pu didn't speak, just stretched out his hand, and someone brought the long case, Fang Sibao!

After Zhao Pu tested his brush strokes, he was full of ink and didn't stop.With cursive script in one hand, the words 'Zuixianlou' are written in one stroke.It was so hearty that after writing it, Zhao Pu himself was reluctant to leave the word.

Everyone has some attainments in calligraphy, and there is no one who does not admire Zhao Pu's calligraphy!Coupled with this word, it is truly unobstructed, and it seems to be a stroke of magic!Unexpectedly, the word "Zuixianlou" took possession of the word, and they couldn't help but feel a little jealous.

Seeing Zhao Pu's reluctance, Su San quickly winked at Yu Feng!Yu Feng quickly stepped forward to thank her!

"This is Yu Feng, the treasurer of Zuixianlou!" Su San said softly to Zhao Pu.

Zhao Pu didn't expect that the shopkeeper of Zuixianlou was another woman!Now, he was embarrassed to put down his face and leave the word behind.So he had no choice but to say: "Get up! I heard that the dishes here are better than those made by Gong Yuchu. But there are some?"

"Don't dare! Each has a swing."

Zhao Pu saw that Yu Feng was not stiff in her response, she seemed to be a woman who had seen the world, she didn't have the petty air of ordinary women, but was a bit elegant, so she smiled and said: "The implication is that there is a fight? "

"Spring, summer, autumn and winter have their own characteristics. Although they can be compared with each other, people love each other! There are so many differences between the dishes in Zuixianlou and the dishes in the palace, but they are actually irrelevant and not comparable. .”

"Haha!" Zhao Pu wanted to provoke Yu Feng on purpose, but saw that she was not fooled.So I had no choice but to give up: "Even if there is no pancake in the imperial dining room of the palace, there are probably more than [-]% of the delicacies in the world! You have 'a lot of differences'. I want to taste it myself. Is it really different? Don't you Take the same dish and change the name to fool me? Haha."

Yu Feng didn't panic, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, just try it and you'll know! The little girl promises that the Emperor can not only taste different delicacies, but also taste different poetic flavors!"

"poetry?"

"The dish has its own golden house, and the dish has its own Yan Ruyu! Only those who can taste the poetic flavor of Zuixianlou's dishes can be regarded as true scholars."

Zhao Pu was even more puzzled now!When did this dish come into contact with Shi? "What do you mean by that?"

"Please wait a moment, Your Majesty, you will know in a while!"

After all, lead everyone into the main building of Zuixian Tower!

In the old days, Gu Zaixian never thought of setting up any restaurant here, so the main building of Zuixianlou is actually not that big.On the first floor of the entire main building, there can only be ten tables at most!The second floor was originally just for viewing, but now there are six seats!The rest of the seats were all placed in the open space inside the building.

Although it is a bit compact, the upstairs and downstairs, the inside and the outside of the building are also connected!The door panel on the second floor has been removed, and the scene on the second floor can also be reached by sitting in the courtyard.As long as it is a little louder inside the building, it can be heard clearly in the open space outside the building.The emperor, the main ministers, and representatives of Jinshi sat upstairs, and other officials, big and small, and Jinshi were scattered downstairs and in the courtyard!

The courtyard is bright, and there are the most people. Just look up, and you can see the movement of the emperor's main table. Everyone is happy to sit in the courtyard, but the table on the first floor is neglected.

Zhao Pu's curiosity was first seduced by Su San's saying that the dishes were beautiful, and he set up the Hanlin Banquet in Zuixianlou; now he is also seduced by Yu Feng, and he is very curious about the poetry in the dishes!Therefore, after ordering the prince and the king of Wu to sit down on the left and right sides of him, he raised his hand to Guo De to let people open the table.

As expected of Guo De's good voice, the sound of "opening the banquet" was heard far away, and no one in or outside the building could not hear it.

The food and wine were prepared from the first two days!Therefore, everything should be prepared.As soon as the emperor entered the garden, counting the time, more than a dozen pots started working together.Each person only cooks one dish, and the rest are served with cold dishes!There is no reason not to keep up.

Moreover, Yu'er had also asked Su San for advice on these backstage work early in the morning.During the training, everyone did a similar drill!Therefore, this scene can be dealt with.

There was a sound of 'opening the table', and the dishes from the kitchen here were uploaded continuously, and the table surface was also set up like flowing water!

The cold dishes came first!

The royal dining habits have changed a lot since arriving in Jinling!Southerners' love for cold dishes is naturally not as popular as in the north!Therefore, it is the custom to serve the soup first when setting up a banquet in the palace.Unexpectedly, the opening of "Zuixianlou" followed the old customs of the northerners, but it was a little different.

"What kind of dish is this?" Zhao Pu saw that the dish that was served first, which was an ordinary cold dish, was nothing special, so he asked Yu Feng who was standing beside him.

"The name of this dish is 'Luming Congratulations to Guests'! It comes from the secret venison and wild vegetable cold salad made by Zuixianlou. Please give it to the emperor!"

Zhao Pu was about to say, how poetic is this dish?But suddenly I remembered a line from the Book of Songs!Can't help but smile slightly.He stroked his beard, but did not speak.

Zhao Yun and Zhao Pu stared at the people at the banquet, with a questioning look on their face, and then lightly patted the table, attracting Zhao Pu's eyes, and then pretended to say: "Just now the shopkeeper Yu said that this dish has a poetic flavor. Could it be that this dish is It should be in the line in the Book of Songs: 'Yo Yo Luming, the apple of the wild food. I have guests, playing the lute and the sheng.' Above?"

Zhao Pu was a little surprised, the first person to react was actually Zhao Yun!Can't help being a little surprised.

Yu Feng smiled and said, "King Wu is really a gentleman! This dish has exactly the same intention, otherwise, it would not be served in the first dish."

"Yeah!" Zhao Pu nodded, "There is venison and wild vegetables, and the people sitting here are really guests. This meaning is well used, and the meaning fits well. It really has a special taste."

"The emperor please taste it!" Yu Feng said with a smile.

Zhao Pu didn't comment on Zhao Yun's little brilliance, but his eyes expressed satisfaction with Zhao Yun's quick response.He lifted the chopsticks and took a bite, and after putting down the chopsticks, he began to chew slowly.

The venison is very tender without any fishy smell!Wild vegetables are also sweet.Especially the vegetable juice of this wild vegetable has penetrated into the meat, so it tastes delicious and smooth!And this wild vegetable seems to be very special, it feels very refreshing and pleasant.Swallowing it in the throat, there is a kind of cool and crisp pleasure!

Zhao Puzheng had a moment of dry mouth, after taking this sip, his mouth immediately became salivary, and he couldn't help but feel a little bit aftertaste!Can't help but take another bite.

Everyone was waiting for Zhao Pu to comment before they dared to move their chopsticks.Therefore, people inside and outside the building all sat on the seats and did not dare to move.But he didn't expect the emperor to be so greedy.I couldn't help but move my index finger to the dish in front of me!

Zhao Pu took the second mouthful happily, and felt even more secretly happy!I was also happy for a while, so I took a bite and handed it to Zhao Yun's bowl.Everyone saw this move and couldn't help but be shocked!

Zhao Guang's face changed slightly, and Zhao Yun's heart was secretly happy!

Zhao Pu didn't mean too much, and smiled slightly: "Yun'er has figured out the meaning of this dish first, so she should take a bite first! You all eat it too, this dish is really a good dish worthy of the name to congratulate guests. The taste is really different generally."

Everyone couldn't hold back any longer, and eagerly tasted this dish!It’s fine if you don’t eat it, once you eat it, you will be full of praise immediately!

"Great food! Great taste."

"The meaning is good, the dishes are good, and the taste is even better!"

"It's really a must-have dish for banquets!"

Yu Feng heard it in the building, and at the same time her heart widened, she was naturally overjoyed!A good start is half the battle. After today, it will be impossible for Zuixianlou not to become famous.While being overjoyed, Yu Feng naturally glanced at Su San who was sitting with her during the dinner.

Su San is also happy!He also put a lot of thought into Zuixianlou.After all, Yu Feng was his first woman in the Feng Dynasty, so he didn't care and couldn't justify it.Now that there is such an effect, he is naturally very happy.Therefore, while Yu Feng was with him, he felt something in his heart and smiled at Yu Feng.
