"It's him!"
Irina's eyes suddenly lit up, and she looked at the maids walking over with trays in their hands, and she was full of curiosity about what kind of dish would be under the lid.
If Mag only knows how to cook roast beef, she doesn't think he is a qualified chef. She doesn't want to live a life of eating roast beef every day.
Qiao Xiu said with a smile: "Brother Huang asked at the right time. I specially invited this chef from the City of Chaos. He is the best chef I have ever seen. I hope he can satisfy my father."
There was a small commotion in the hall. I didn't expect that His Highness the Second Prince would give such a high evaluation to a chef.
"The best cook? Did Qiao Xiu really find such a powerful chef? And he found it from the City of Chaos?" Abraham thought in his mind with some doubts. He counted the number of maids and ranked them according to their ranking. He didn't seem to be able to eat this dish, and suddenly he felt itchy.
If it were a usual palace banquet, he would naturally sit at the front, but this time for the king's birthday, the representatives of all clans were very distinguished, so the ten Dukes could only sit behind Crassus.
"Qiao Xiu is interested." The king nodded slightly, but the expression on his face did not change much.
Sean's pupils shrank, but he still had a smile on his face, and he asked curiously: "In that case, does His Highness think that this chef's cooking skills are better than Bierman? Then I am really looking forward to this." The chef brought delicious food.”
Praising someone for killing is more vicious than directly criticizing him. Brother Huang is not a general who only knows how to kill enemies on the battlefield. Qiao Xiu also said with a smile on his face: "It's hard to say it's better than Bierman, but this chef does it." Food brings me the most special feeling.”
"Of course Father is the most powerful." Amy said confidently as she gnawed on the chicken wings.
"Then I'll wait and see." Sean nodded slightly and took a deep look at Qiao Xiu, "Whether that guy is Alex or not, you will know if you eat the food he cooked. Since Qiao Xiu has already seen him, he still Let him enter the palace, what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd?"
The dispute between the eldest prince and the second prince is nothing new in the court of Los Empire. The ministers have their own thoughts and secretly fight. Although the ambassadors of various races do not say anything on the surface, their eyes fall on the little hands of the maids. on the tray.
The news that King Andrei might choose a successor after his birthday has already been making noise. The eldest prince, who has a heavy army and is deeply supported by the military, and the second prince who has the support of the people and the support of the wizard tower, who can get it? The king's favor, no one has a definite answer.
So, whether the two princes can make the king happy during this birthday banquet may also be a factor that affects his decision.
The chef Qiao Xiu hired may serve a dish that will become a weight for Qiao Xiu.
If the king likes it, it's positive. If the king doesn't like it, the weight falls on Sean's side.
The entire hall gradually became quiet, and many people stretched their heads and looked in the direction of the king, wondering what delicacies were hidden in the tray that could make the second prince praise him so much.
The waiter held the tray and came to the king's table with his head lowered. Then he opened the lid and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, this is braised chicken and rice."
The other nine maids also opened the lid almost at the same time, and placed the braised chicken and rice on the tray on the table of the nobles.
The rich aroma of chicken and mushrooms gradually spread, like a bomb dropped into the deep sea. The scattered aroma was simply irresistible.
The king's always serious expression showed a hint of surprise. He looked at the braised chicken in front of him and said with slight surprise: "This is..."
Irina came forward and took a sip, her eyes suddenly lit up: "It smells so good! It smells like chicken and mushrooms, but...how did the smell of mushrooms and chicken become so attractive? This is different from what I have ever eaten. Chicken and shiitake mushrooms are completely different! Moreover, the rice is very beautiful, and there is a little moon inside."
"Could it be that after three years of not seeing each other, he has really become a chef? He is actually able to make such delicious food. Even the best chef in the clan cannot make mushrooms and chicken so beautiful and attractive. .”
"No! It seems that he has been coveting my position as the chef for a long time, and he even went to learn cooking to replace me. I will never let this kind of thing happen. From now on, he and Amy must eat my cooking Food and rice! Can’t waste my talent and ability in food.”
The faces of the representatives of all ethnic groups showed surprise and intoxication. The food they had eaten today was enough to make them marvel at human beings' achievements in food. But now, just the smell of this food has made them full of expectations.
The fragrance spread quickly, and the rich fragrance made the ministers around who had no chance to taste the delicious food swallow their saliva and admire it.
"This taste is simply amazing! Although shiitake mushrooms are rare, I didn't expect that after being cooked with chicken, they would develop such a wonderful and alluring fragrance. What a genius idea!" Abraham looked surprised and stretched his arms. He looked at the braised chicken and rice placed on Crassus's table, and said quietly: "I don't have a share! This is simply too much!"
Sean's hand hanging by his leg clenched into a fist, and then slowly unclenched it. The chef he had met yesterday seemed to have cooking skills that exceeded his expectations. If Qiao Xiu really wanted to win over his father, The emperor's favor was not good news for him.
Qiao Xiu glanced at Sean, and the smile on his face grew stronger.
"The chef said that it tastes better if you pour the chicken soup into the rice and eat it." The waiter said respectfully, and then led the maids out of the hall with the tray in hand.
The king picked up the chopsticks and saw that the golden chicken nuggets in the bowl were evenly colored and had no flaws on the surface. The potatoes were overripe but not falling apart. The lettuce was still green and green and red peppers were dotted among them. The golden-red and translucent soup reflected the light, without any trace of blemishes. Oily feeling.
The rich aroma of chicken and mushrooms hit my face, and my originally poor appetite was suddenly aroused. I picked up a piece of chicken and fed it to my mouth. My wrinkled face seemed to suddenly shine with light.
The delicious soup wrapped around the chicken exudes a wonderful taste, and Andre's long-dormant taste buds seem to be reawakened, just like the grassland irrigated by a spring rain, rejuvenated with a youthful atmosphere.
When he bit into the tender chicken, it was smooth and elastic. The flavor of the seasonings and mushrooms had penetrated perfectly into the chicken, making it especially delicious. After swallowing, the fragrance lingered on his lips and teeth, and he couldn't help but close his eyes.
I don't know since when, he no longer thinks that eating is an interesting thing. Every day, he just eats some food that has been determined by the imperial chef in quantity and nutrition to maintain his life. Even if it is the food cooked by Bierman, when Andre looks at it, Come, there is no sense of surprise in his life.
However, this braised chicken brought him surprise and fun.
After swallowing the chicken, he picked up a piece of shiitake mushroom and put it into his mouth.
The unparalleled fragrance made him immersed in it. He didn't need any words to praise it. Being immersed in it was the best expression.
Everyone looked at the king who barely moved his chopsticks during the whole process. At this time, there was some commotion as he was eating braised chicken and rice one bite after another.
"Let me taste how delicious it is." Irina also picked up a piece of chicken with chopsticks.
"After eating this piece of chicken, sister Irina will probably fall in love with father."
Amy looked at Irina and said softly.
