I didn't expect the general to pass the blame to me.
What's more, I didn't expect that Master Luan was not confused, but was more sober than anyone else.
He did not follow the general's words and pointed at me, but turned his face to General Xiucheng.
"He is just a cook. Don't change the subject. What I'm talking about is the issue of waste. You, General Xiu, can't shirk the problem. I will report it to the king truthfully."
The general looked embarrassed.
However, Master Luan still turned around and asked me, nodding his head and looking up and down.
"Hey, you, a cook, can not only cook, but also build a memorial hall. Well, it's not easy!"
I found that the person in front of me had very bright eyes, as if I had seen him before.
He did not criticize directly, but gave me a compliment.
I don't know if he acted it for the general or if he did it from his heart.
It was hard for me to judge for a while.
I think this is all your official business.
I took advantage of the adult's speaking time to push the car toward the middle.
The long-faced official next to Master Luan could not figure out the intention of Master Luan's question for a moment.
So I asked people to distribute the other trays I brought to everyone at the table.
This was good, as expected, none of these people could resist the temptation in front of the delicious food. Some of them had already buried their heads in the food and made the sound of "balud, bald".
Because of this dish, I stewed it very well in advance. The skin was loose and the meat was soft, so soft that it melted in your mouth.
Obviously, none of you here have ever tasted this feeling and taste.
Everyone was impressed by this purely natural, fragrant and soft food, and they all started to eat it.
One dish more or less diluted the atmosphere of gunpowder in the big tent.
General Xiucheng, who was sitting opposite Mr. Luan, did not move his chopsticks. Knowing that Mr. Luan was criticizing the issue of food waste, I added fuel to the fire and served a hard dish. I stood up suddenly, waved my arms and said,
"Alright, Liu Bancheng, you should avoid it first and say less!"
The general rarely calls me by my first name.
This time it was like calling a stranger.
I was thinking of replying to the general's words.
Master Luan also stood up suddenly.
I have no way of knowing what will happen next!
I saw Master Luan's eyes staring straight at the tray in my hand.
He raised his hand to stop General Xiucheng and signaled, "Let me talk about the dish in my hand."
I was not in the mood to talk about this dish at all, so I said angrily,
"There is no way to do it, I just have to do it as a last resort. Because this kind of ingredient is hard to find, it should be braised in braised sauce, but our camp has neither soy sauce, dark soy sauce, cooking wine, cinnamon, nor MSG, Shaoxing wine, pepper, etc." No, that’s all I can do, it’s really all in vain.”
When Lord Luan heard what I said, he raised his eyebrows lightly and waved his long sleeves upward.
It means let me continue.
I said, "That's it, I have no choice but to use soybean paste, old hens and ducks to make soup."
While talking, I saw Master Luan had already picked up the chopsticks and put something into his mouth.
After taking a sip, he shook his head and nodded.
The general was puzzled and started to taste it with his chopsticks.
I looked up at the general's expression and the way he picked up the meat. I saw that the general had never eaten bear paws in all his years at the border.
The general took a bite, looked up at me, and took a second bite.
Master Luan here asked while eating, "What's your name?"
"My name is Liu Bancheng, sir."
"What a good one, Liu Bancheng!" Mr. Luan repeated my name in a long voice.
His rigid expression seemed to be somewhat relieved, and then he turned to General Xiucheng and said,
"General Xiucheng, don't mention it, you do have experts here!"
But at this time, when Master Luan was speaking to General Xiucheng, he found that the general was lowering his head, listening to the golden lock guard talking about their private words in his ear, and did not listen to his own questions at all.
Master Luan's face, which had been gentle just now, immediately became stern.
I think this is broken.
Master Luan repeated seriously,
"I said General Xiucheng, I'm talking to you!"
General Xiu was reminded angrily by Master Luan. He suddenly recovered and replied nervously,
"Ah, ah, ah, Mr. Luan, are you talking about him?" The general pointed at me with his finger.
Master Luan said to General Xiucheng,
"Yes, that's him. Let me tell you, I, Luan, have eaten countless bear paws, but this is the first time I have eaten bear paws that don't have a fishy smell. As a chef, you are not bad. I am very satisfied. !”
He turned around and said to me again,
"I'm very optimistic about you! Please tell me more specifically how you cook this dish!"
My original intention was to take the punishment for the general and suffer death. Now if I continue to talk about food according to Master Luan's wishes, the general will definitely be furious.
If he doesn't continue talking, Master Luan's gloomy eyes are staring directly at him.
His vision was unquestionable and he could only say to Lord Luan,
And his tone was not as stiff as before.
"Okay, sir, according to the rules, this dish should be removed from the hair first, then boned, marinated for five hours, and finally steamed thoroughly. But today, in order to make the whole dish look good, I can still eat it thickly. To achieve a tender feeling, I steamed it first and then stewed it. What do adults think of the taste?"
As we were talking, I could feel that the other party knew how to cook, so I added another sentence,
"Everyone knows that bear's paw is the most precious thing in the world."
"It has the effects of nourishing qi and blood, dispelling wind and dampness, strengthening the spleen and stomach, and rejuvenating muscles and bones."
"This time, when I was making the soup, in addition to adding glutinous rice that can replenish deficiency, hen that can replenish qi and blood, and duck meat that can replenish deficiency and nourish yin and blood, I also added winter bamboo shoots and bamboo shoots that can replenish kidney deficiency. Pork. If each of you, my lords, eats this whole pork, I will ensure that you are in good health and can prevent diseases and prolong your life."
A dish that was on the table, and when I exaggerated it, the atmosphere in the big tent suddenly picked up.
After hearing this, Master Luan was the first to applaud, and the others also clapped in cooperation.
I see that the atmosphere has eased, and everyone no longer talks about saving and waste, which means that their mission has been completed. They were about to withdraw, but were stopped by Master Luan.
Lord Luan spoke to the general,
"General Xiu, I've fallen in love with you, the chef. After the meal, do I plan to take him away?"
Before the general could speak, he waved his sleeves for me to withdraw.
When I exited the tent, I realized that my coarse shirt was soaked through.
Excitement, nervousness, complex emotions are difficult to suppress.
Is it too simple and easy to complete the task just like this?
I thought that if I entered the big tent this time, my life would be sealed and I would not be able to come back?
Unexpectedly, not only did he save the general from the siege, but he also found a good employer for himself. He would have the opportunity to show off his talents in the palace of Yan Kingdom.
Just thinking about it makes me feel excited and excited.
It seems that this time travel is really not in vain.
But then again, this credit should be credited to General Xiucheng first.
Without General Xiu's promotion, where would I, Liu Bancheng, go to meet Mr. Luan?
At this moment, Master Luan seems to be no longer the hateful traitor in my heart, but a tall and dignified Bole who appreciates himself and can make himself stand out.
Understood in this way, I feel that the Battle of Shangliao itself may not have been caused by Master Luan's comments. It is hard to say whose power and whose factors were responsible.
Because most histories are written by people for future generations, they are all biased.
Sometimes the people who record the history books may not understand the whole process of the event 360 degrees, and some are still unable to control it.
Thinking about it, I feel that Master Luan should be a good person.
So I returned to the kitchen happily.
But before the heel could settle down, I heard "Boom!" "Bang!" "Crash!" and "Bang!" behind me.
The tent instantly exploded.
There seemed to be a lot of people and chaos in the general's tent.
When I ran back, I saw that all the tables in the big tent had been opened, and the pots, pots, soup, and water on the ground were in a mess.
The little Mr. Luan had collapsed to the ground, his voice was hoarse, his face was hideous, and his mouth was full of blood.
It can be seen that their guards are all well-trained, and they have carefully protected Master Luan, and they are glaring with swords.
The general's entourage was not to be outdone, and they all showed off their weapons with a loud noise.
I know it's broken.
Something big must have happened.
The general and Jin Suo must have taken action early.
But when I think about it, it’s not right.
A general should not make such a stupid mistake and assassinate his opponent in his own camp.
There was no time to think about it. At this time, the soldiers on both sides were all angry and murderous.
Seeing this, the general stepped forward and shouted, "Stop! Put down your weapons!"
Then he bowed deeply to Lord Luan.
But before the general could say anything, Master Luan had already climbed up from the ground, pushed everyone away, and grabbed the general's collar. The general's armor was "flowered!" "flowered!" Straight ring.
Ignoring the blood on his cheek, he held a bloody steel needle-like object and asked:
"Okay, General Xiu, what's your purpose of hiding this in this bear's paw? Is it possible that you want to kill me?"
The general looked over and saw the object in Master Luan's hand, and couldn't help being surprised!
