The braised chicken with rice and black pepper steak brought quite a mental impact to the guests who couldn’t eat it. This feeling of being able to only look at it but not eat it, and endure all kinds of fancy compliments and post-eating sensations is simply mind-boggling. Crazy.
When the king swallowed the last piece of beef and smiled with satisfaction, everyone thought it was over.
result.
"The chef invited by His Highness will serve the third dish!"
The devil's voice sounded from the door of the hall, and the waiter led two rows of maids from the door. The long tray in each person's hand was twice as big as the previous two.
"besides?"
The king was also a little surprised. Today he ate the braised chicken with rice and black pepper steak, which was more than he usually eats. It can be said that this chef really gave him some desire for food.
For a chef to be able to make two such delicious dishes has proven his ability, and Qiao Xiu really means it.
Unexpectedly, after eating two dishes, there was a third dish. Although he felt full, he was still looking forward to it.
It didn't matter whether he wanted to eat it or not, but what the third dish on the tray was did make him a little curious.
Although the food is delicious, Sean feels a little depressed now that he can't eat it. One after another, is this Qiao Xiu still finished?
This made him regret not killing Mag directly yesterday. Although the relationship with Qiao Xiu would deteriorate again, it would save him today's troubles.
On the contrary, Qiao Xiu was in a happy mood and wanted to sing a song, but he had to control his expression and emotions in this hall and couldn't show too much joy.
"Your Majesty, this dish is spicy grilled fish, please enjoy."
The waiter opened the tray, and the grilled fish covered with red pepper appeared in front of everyone. A slightly hot smell rushed towards the king, making him frown.
But what surprised him was that the spiciness of this red-looking chili pepper was not as strong and pungent as expected. Instead, it had a spicy feeling. The fragrance was more prominent than the spiciness. The spicy taste It stimulated his already full stomach and gave him the urge to pick up the chopsticks again.
Under the chili pepper is a whole fish, the fish skin is slightly browned, and under the crossed knives, you can see the plump fish meat dyed red by the soup, which makes you want to eat it.
Qiao Xiu looked at the king's expression and raised a smile at the corner of his mouth, because the taste of the finale dish that worried him the most seemed to be eaten by his father. At today's palace banquet, his father almost only ate dishes presented by Mag. Then the best dish at today's palace banquet must be Mag's, which is also good news for him.
The maids opened the lid of the tray and carefully brought the grilled fish to the table. The strong spicy flavor exploded like open chili bombs.
"What is this!"
Sean tilted his body back subconsciously. The hot and spicy smell that hit his face made him feel a little bit irritated in his eyes. The spicy smell had almost solidified into substance. Just one whiff made his throat feel dry and itchy.
Qiao Xiu sat in front of four portions of abnormally spicy grilled fish, and said with a smile with red eyes: "Brother Wang, why should you make such a fuss? This is spicy grilled fish, which is famous for its spiciness. Although it smells spicy, it is extremely spicy when you eat it, and you can't stop eating it. "
He originally thought that Mag had reduced the amount of chili pepper, but now he could smell that the spiciness was almost worse than the last time.
But what can be done?
Mag is the chef he invited. No matter how annoying it is, he can only sit still and show a smile of enjoyment, which makes him cry.
Qiao Xiu glanced at the calm king and breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, he couldn't help but admire in his heart: "I didn't expect that my father loved chili peppers so much. He guessed his father's taste, so he immediately agreed." A great achievement."
Because the spiciness was beyond the tolerance of normal people, Sean, who was already ready to find fault, glanced at the king who had already picked up the chopsticks, and swallowed back the rest of his words.
"This tastes so spicy, but it feels so delicious!"
"Yes, although this fish is a bit small, it looks like it should taste good, but I'm not very good at eating small fish. The fish bones are too small."
Representatives of various ethnic groups looked at the spicy grilled fish in front of them, hesitant, but also wanted to try it.
The delicious experience brought by the previous two dishes made them have high expectations for this third dish. The fiery red pepper and strong spicy flavor became an obstacle for everyone to use their chopsticks. For a while, no one moved first. chopsticks.
"Is it that spicy? Why do I feel that mine is very fragrant but not very spicy?" Irina took a deep sniff of the grilled fish in front of her, looked at everyone with some doubts, and whispered to herself again Yu said: "However, I didn't expect that he can even grill fish. What else can he not do, fly in the sky, swim in the water, and run on the ground? This is indeed very important to my status. Threat!"
While everyone was hesitating whether to eat, the king was the first to pick up a piece of fish with chopsticks and put it into his mouth.
His mouth moved, revealing a smile, and the fine wrinkles on his face slowly dissipated like ripples. It was a joyful smile from the heart, and it was the best compliment for the delicious food.
After swallowing the fish, the king looked at everyone and nodded slightly: "It is very delicious fish, you should also try it."
"Yes, Father." Qiao Xiu immediately picked up the chopsticks and picked up a large piece of fish. The red soup had dyed the fish red, and the strong spicy smell hit his nose. He resisted the urge to retreat and swallowed the fish. Feed it into your mouth.
In just a moment, Qiao Xiu felt that his mouth and tongue were numb, his face suddenly turned red, and sweat began to form on his forehead.
He had already experienced this feeling once the day before yesterday, but this time the feeling was obviously stronger. His tongue and mouth were numb, and the strong spicy taste rushed straight into his mind, making his mind almost blank, and his tears were already reddening. His eyes were spinning, but he still had to resist himself from screaming.
"As long as it lasts a little longer it will be fine!"
Qiao Xiu clenched his fists and recited silently in his mind. The numbness and blankness lasted for a while, and the energy finally subsided, and what followed was the ultimate deliciousness brought by the tender and delicious fish, which slightly covered up the spicy feeling. For a moment, I can only feel the delicious taste of fish.
One bite after another of fish, the spicy taste can be covered up with delicious food. Qiao Xiu's red face looked like he had just come out of the stove, and his forehead and body were already covered with sweat. This feeling was really hard to stop!
Sean glanced at Qiao Xiu who was enjoying his meal. His father had already spoken. He picked up a piece of fish and fed it into his mouth with some difficulty.
"Um……"
Sean's face turned the color of pig liver almost instantly, his tongue and mouth lost all feeling, and he almost wanted to spit out the fish meat at that moment.
But when he glanced at Qiao Xiu, who was sitting opposite and enjoying his meal, he forcibly resisted the urge. His hands under the table were clenched into fists. This kind of spiciness was simply not acceptable to normal people. But in this situation, if he does something inappropriate, all his previous efforts may be in vain.
My father would never let a disgraced prince become king.
The spicy feeling made him want to scream to the sky, but he still had to force an expression of enjoyment and pleasure on his face. This suffocating feeling made him almost unable to control the muscles on his face.
