Tyrant, your vest fell off

Chapter 524 – The Banquet of Vientiane

Bei Mingke, who was hand-picked by Zhong Liyao as the Grand Marshal of the Left Army, saw Zhong Liyao holding Si Kongque's hand and was about to walk towards the beacon tower, coughed a few times in embarrassment.

"Men are not allowed to go to the beacon tower, bad luck!"

Sikong Que's footsteps stopped immediately, and Zhong Liyao, who was walking in front, saw Sikong Que stop, so he turned his head to look at Bei Mingke in displeasure.

"I have my own sense of propriety. I am the emperor of the real dragon who is ordered by the sky. Standing beside me is my right husband in the middle palace. I say yes! Wait, who has an opinion!"

"The last general takes orders!"

After Zhong Liyao vowed to order troops, it was already the time when the army set off, and the soldiers who were waiting for His Majesty in the school ground were exhausted physically and mentally at this time, how could they walk at night in brocade clothes with high spirits?
"Your Majesty, why don't the soldiers wait for a day under the scorching sun today, so why not let the scouts find a place to set up camp in front, and wait for the soldiers to rest for a night and recharge their batteries before setting off?"

Sikong Que was understanding and interceded for those soldiers who were struggling, but at this time, the army had just left for less than two hours.

"Well, pass down the order and set up camp on the spot. I know that the soldiers are really tired today. They should rest early tonight and set off tomorrow morning."

"Your Majesty, let's get deeper, drink some shochu to warm up."

Sikong Que handed the wine gourd tied around his waist to Zhong Liyao's mouth, Zhong Liyao made a gesture to drink it, but suddenly his hand was empty, and Xuanzang's figure appeared in front of him, he put the wine gourd on the tip of his nose and sniffed it carefully, Immediately after, he poured out some more and tried a few sips before presenting the wine gourd to Zhong Liyao's hands.

"Brother Que, Mr. Xuanzang should take a look at everything I eat and wear. This is an ancestral precept, so don't worry about it."

Sikong Que pursed his lips, and immediately snorted coldly, Zhong Liyao picked up the wine gourd embarrassingly, tilted his head up and drank like an apology.

"Your Majesty, I'm hungry!"

"Brother Que, I heard that you know how to cook! Over the years, I haven't tasted any dishes cooked by you."

Zhong Liyao tugged at Si Kongque's sleeve with some grievances, shaking it back and forth coquettishly.

"When I traveled among the people, I saw a very special dish, and this dish can hold up a feast."

"This dish also has a mysterious name called Vientiane."

"I have tasted this dish myself, and it tastes absolutely delicious. I heard that people with poor concentration can accidentally bite off their tongues."

"I don't know if I will have the honor today to personally taste the delicacy that Brother Que mentioned."

"Your Majesty, forget it. This dish consumes a lot of ingredients. To make this dish requires a camel, a horse, a cow, a lamb, ten chickens, twenty fish, forty pigeons, and one A thousand quail eggs."

"About a thousand catties of fruit charcoal will be needed. At that time, the quail eggs will be stuffed into the belly of the pigeon, and the honey sauce will be applied layer by layer. Then the pigeon will be sewn up with fish intestines, stuffed into the belly of the fish, and then stitched with fish intestines. , and so on, the fish is stuffed into the belly of the chicken, and then the processed chicken is stuffed into the belly of the lamb, followed by the belly of the cow, the belly of the horse, and finally the belly of the processed horse is stuffed into the belly of the camel.”

"Then put the whole camel on the grill with smoke-free fruit charcoal and grill it for ten hours. During this period, the sauce is evenly brushed all over the camel's body until the camel meat is golden and crisp, and the fat begins to ooze out. Add cumin, rosemary and other spices."

"After the Vientiane is ready, then separate the fish gut and take out the nested ingredients, that taste."

Sikong Que couldn't help swallowing, and Zhong Liyao beside him couldn't help licking his saliva.

"There is such a unique cooking method in this world, Brother Que, I can't wait to taste your Vientiane immediately."

"Even if we start preparations now and mobilize a hundred fire-head troops to help, I'm afraid it will not be cooked until tomorrow evening at the earliest."

Sikong Que looked at Zhong Liyao in some embarrassment, but saw her waving her hand nonchalantly, and immediately came the servant.

"Immediately mobilize [-] fire-headed troops, let the emperor dispatch, and pass down the order, order Bei Mingke and other generals to prepare the required ingredients immediately, and tell the soldiers, I know that they have traveled long distances and marched hard, and ordered the army to rest in place for a day , Tomorrow night, I invite all generals to share the feast of Vientiane."

In the middle of the night, many soldiers had already rested, but they didn't want to wake up their officers in a daze. When they knew what task their superiors had assigned, they immediately looked at each other in blank dismay.

With such extravagant dishes, even the well-informed Xuanzang couldn't help being speechless, suddenly, he looked at Sikong Que meaningfully.

"Your Majesty, this dish is really a waste of time and money. Let alone war horses and carrier pigeons. These are military supplies. If the war horses and carrier pigeons are killed, it is just to satisfy the appetite. It is really not worth the loss."

"Sir, I'm too worried. It's just a war horse and forty pigeons. No matter how empty our treasury is, it won't be so stretched."

As Zhong Liyao said, she straightened up, drew out the Son of Heaven Sword from her waist, and beheaded her imperial horse with one blow, and immediately looked at Sikong Que fondly as if asking for credit.

"Brother Que, my horse is fat and strong, and it will be delicious to cook this dish for you."

Sikong Que showed a gentle smile, obviously expressing his deep approval for Zhong Liyao's understanding.

Sikong Que's bright smile was undoubtedly a great encouragement to Zhong Liyao, so she happily brought the servants along to pick out the pigeons and camels by herself.

And Sikong Que took the guard's long sword casually, and began to deal with the dying horse still struggling on the ground. Seeing Sikong Que's calm look, Xuanzang suddenly lost his temper.

"Boy, what on earth do you want to do! If you have any evil intentions, be careful of your head!"

Xuanzang stared at Sikong Que sharply, he always felt that it was inappropriate for Zhong Liyao to take Sikong Que with him on this trip, this kid was scheming, cunning and cunning, and now Zhong Liyao was being led by his nose and still didn't know it.

"It's just a meal, why make such a fuss, sir!"

"It's fine if it's an ordinary household meal. Even if ordinary people go bankrupt, they may not be able to afford the food you cook. If things go on like this, you will eat up Ran Qu's treasury!"

"You want to be an evildoer who subjugates the country? Don't drag innocent people like us to be buried with you!"

"Humph!"

Xuan Zang gave Si Kong Que a hard look, and immediately flew to catch up with Zhong Liyao's walking steps.

At this time, Sikong Que was concentrating on handling the horse meat seriously. A guard saw that he was unable to handle such a big horse by himself, so he enthusiastically walked to his side and began to help him handle the hill together. Like a horse carcass.

Suddenly, a ball of paper was stuffed into Sikong Que's hand by the guard.
