Looking at the dishes on the table, the entire banquet hall couldn't help but make a sound of salivating.
Ying Zheng looked at Zhao Hao in disbelief: "You did all this?"
"Reporting to my father, these are made by my servant Laifu and the royal chef in the palace!"
It is naturally impossible for Zhao Hao to admit that he cooks.
After all, the identity of the prince lies there.
As the saying goes, the prince is far away from the kitchen.
"So do you eat these meals on weekdays?"
Ying Zheng had always known that Zhao Hao's food was different from most people's, but he never expected it to be so different.
It seems that Zhao Hao is more like an emperor than himself.
This food is too good.
But I heard Zhao Hao boasting: "Actually, these meals are not bad. Wait until I get out the missing seasonings and you can try them again."
After saying that, he raised his hand and pointed at Ying Zheng's table and said: "Father, the dish in front of you is tomato scrambled eggs, which is different from tomato omelette noodles. Also, the braised lion head on the left, sweet and sour ridge, salt and pepper Pork ribs and twice-cooked pork with chili are all made according to your favorite taste..."
"Okay, okay, let me try it, let me try it..."
Hearing Zhao Hao's introduction, Ying Zheng couldn't help but twitch his index finger. Before Zhao Hao finished the introduction, he picked up Kuaizi, picked up a piece of sweet and sour ridge and put it in his mouth. He was immediately impressed by the sweet and sour taste.
Next came the braised lion's head. After taking a bite, I couldn't help but feel very satisfied.
At the same time, the royal relatives, princes, and grandsons who could not wait for a long time also began to feast and enjoy the food.
"No wonder Brother Hao wants to buy Liuheju. Compared with today's dishes, the dishes in Liuheju are really inedible. I hope I can eat today's delicacies when I go to Liuheju in the future!"
Gong Ziliang was chewing Dongpo's elbow while advertising to Zhao Hao.
Zhao Hao was moved and quickly said: "Brother Ninth, don't worry, every dish you eat today is available in Liuheju, and there will be more novel dishes in the future, waiting for you to taste!"
"Hahaha, that's a good relationship. We'll often go to Liuheju from now on!"
Hearing the two brothers singing in harmony, the rest of the royal family, princes, and grandsons were first slightly surprised, and then full of expectations.
Surprisingly, Zhao Hao actually bought Liuheju.
What I look forward to is that Liuheju also has such delicacies.
"Well, it's delicious."
“These dishes are so delicious!”
“It’s so delicious, so fragrant!”
“It turns out that pork meat can also be made into such delicacies!”
"What? This is actually pork meat? I thought it was fairy meat!"
"Hahaha, happy as a god!"
Obviously, these royal relatives, princes, princes and grandsons were all impressed by the dishes they were eating.
After all, the dishes of the Qin Dynasty were very monotonous, mostly barbecued meats and soups.
Dishes like stir-fry did not exist until the Song Dynasty.
It was a dynasty that was very particular about food and clothing, which was not comparable to the Qin Dynasty.
"No wonder the young master asked me to raise dolphins. The meat is extraordinary!"
Wang Li took a bite of the braised pork and couldn't help but sigh.
Wang Jian, who was beside him, scalped him: "I can't even stop your mouth even if I eat!"
"hehe."
Wang Li laughed twice and did not dare to say anything.
Wang Wan, who was in the distance, smiled coldly: "Some people are so shameless that they dare to come to such a family banquet."
"Old man, what did you say?"
Wang Jian glared and was about to confront Wang Wan. At this moment, a young woman who looked to be in her 28th year put her hand on Wang Jian's arm and said softly: "Wu Chenghou, don't be angry. Father, don't care what he does in front of you." ?”
As soon as these words came out, Wang Jian's face turned red, and he subconsciously avoided the young woman's arm, picked up the wine glass, and took a sip of wine.
This woman is none other than Ying Zheng's eldest daughter, Ying Yuanman.
Everyone present knew about the story of Ying Yuanman and Wang Jian, but they all kept silent.
There is no other reason.
It's so embarrassing.
According to his title, the First Emperor should be Wang Jian's father-in-law.
But Wang Jian was older than the First Emperor.
This is... hard to say, hard to say.
Seeing that the atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward, Li Si, who was also a member of the 'Emperor's Relatives', stood up wisely and broke the embarrassment and said: "Your Majesty, good news came from Longxi recently. Li Xin defeated the Qiang coalition forces and harvested cattle and sheep. Tens of thousands, thousands of captives, and several carts of Qiang wine. Today is Hu Ji’s birthday party, why not try some of this Qiang wine?”
"oh?"
Ying Zheng, who was eating twice-cooked pork, suddenly became interested when he heard Li Si's words.
They say you eat a lot of meat and drink a lot of wine. How can you eat meat without drinking wine?
The wine they drank before was considered an aperitif at most, so when Li Si said there was Qiang wine, everyone's eyes glowed green.
But Ying Zheng waved his sleeves and said, "Zhao Gao, order someone to bring the wine up!"
"promise."
Zhao Gao agreed and ran out of the hall without stopping.
Soon, several bronze wine vessels were carried up by the palace attendants.
Zhao Hao looked at it intently and couldn't help but be filled with curiosity.
He has never drunk Qiang wine.
Now it is well worth the trip to taste the special wines of this era.
"Brother Hao, this Qiang wine is very strong, please drink less."
When the young master saw Zhao Hao stretching his neck, as if he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to get a share of the wine, he couldn't help but remind him in a funny way.
"It's okay, I can drink well."
Zhao Hao shook his head indifferently.
It was obvious that he didn't believe how high alcohol could be in this era.
However.
When the palace attendant poured him wine, he looked at the wine in front of him and his face turned green.
What the hell is this?
It's green and disgusting!
Can I drink this wine? Aren't you afraid of being poisoned? !
Originally, Qin Dynasty's wine was not good to drink, but now that he saw this green wine, Zhao Hao suddenly lost all interest.
The young master on the side saw this and teased him with a smile: "What? You don't dare to drink anymore?"
"It's not that I don't dare to drink it, I didn't expect it to be such a drink..."
"What's wrong with this wine? Isn't it good? You can't drink it normally, so don't be dissatisfied!"
The young master Jiang Lu said, picked up the wine glass in his hand, drank it all in one gulp, and showed a satisfied expression on his face.
Zhao Hao got goosebumps when he saw it.
At this time, the First Emperor, who was sitting on the high platform, looked at Zhao Hao with confusion: "Didn't you want to drink it before? Why don't you drink it now?"
"Well...."
Zhao Hao was embarrassed for a moment, then he cupped his hands and said, "Return to my father, this wine is not strong. I can't bear to drink it?"
"Young Master has a good drinker! This Qiang wine is stronger than my Qin wine, and you actually say it's boring!?"
"Hahaha! I don't think you dare to drink it!"
"This is normal! Most people can't drink more than a few sips of Qiang wine!"
"Young master is not an ordinary person, he must be very drunk!"
"Hahaha....."
Everyone burst into laughter and chattered, and the First Emperor smiled and shook his head.
It was obvious that he thought the same as everyone else.
I think Zhao Hao is afraid of this Qiang wine.
But when Zhao Hao heard the roar of laughter from the crowd, he couldn't help but blush. He rubbed his neck and said: "It's just Qiang wine, I, Zhao Hao, haven't taken it seriously yet!"
"oh?"
When Ziying, who was sitting in the corner, heard this, he couldn't help but said jokingly, "From what Young Master Hao said, it seems that he has drunk better wine?"
This is a bit heartbreaking!
The First Emperor is sitting on a high platform, and you, a prince, threaten to drink better wine than him. Is this really a big deal?
But Zhao Hao snorted coldly, "Even if we are both members of the Ying Qin royal family, there are differences. Cousin Ziying is obviously different from us."
Wow!
The whole place was in an uproar.
The smell of gunpowder is a bit strong!
What's going on with them?
I haven't heard of any interaction between the two!
Just when everyone was shocked and whispering to each other, Ying Zheng smiled and waved his hand: "Okay, bring me the good wine you drank!"
"...."
Zhao Hao frowned, feeling a little unhappy.
This kid was trying to get into trouble with him, but the First Emperor's father actually ignored him.
This is simply unreasonable!
Although Zhao Hao didn't know why Ying Zheng indulged Zi Ying, he thought there must be some secret that he didn't know about.
After thinking for a moment, he bowed his hand to Ying Zheng and said, "Father, please wait a moment. I will come back as soon as I go!"
About a quarter of an hour later, Zhao Hao came to the banquet hall with half a box of Feitian Moutai, and placed the wine bottles in front of everyone.
Ying Zheng's eyes widened and he couldn't help but ask, "What is this?"
"This is an ancient wine that I discovered from a cave in a deep mountain forest. I planned to find an opportunity to present it to my father. Today is a good opportunity to ask my father to taste this wine!"
With that said, he opened a bottle of wine, walked to Ying Zheng's table, and poured him a glass.
Ying Zheng looked at the wine in the glass and smelled the aroma, and couldn't help being surprised.
Why is this wine as clear as water?
Could it be a fake bar?
Or it’s wine that has been filtered many times!
Because the wine of the Qin Dynasty was similar to rice wine, white wine like this did not appear until the Tang Dynasty.
That's why the First Emperor felt that the wine had been filtered many times.
However, this did not prevent him from being curious about the wine.
I saw him pick up the wine glass and drink it in one gulp without hesitation.
Suddenly.
The First Emperor suddenly stood up, his eyes widened.
His cheeks turned red quickly, his face looked horribly ferocious, and he covered his neck with both hands.
Everyone present was almost frightened.
"what's the situation!?"
There was a crash.
Everyone present stood up in a hurry
Not long after.
The First Emperor waved his hand.
Then he slammed the table and shouted: "Good wine! Domineering!"
The First Emperor tasted countless wines, whether it was grassland wine, Lingnan wine, wine from all over the Six Kingdoms, or even Woju wine.
However, I have never encountered a wine that is more toasty than Zhao Hao's wine.
"Damn it! This wine is so refreshing, so refreshing!"
The First Emperor finally couldn't help but uttered a curse word.
"..."
Everyone in the audience looked at the First Emperor and then at Zhao Hao with sincerity. They seemed to understand something and smiled knowingly.
Your Majesty is also very good at acting.
Even if you support your son, you don't have to treat everyone like monkeys!
Everyone shook their heads slightly and sat down slowly.
At this time, Ying Zheng said with endless aftertaste: "This wine is really good. When I first drank it in my mouth, I was not used to it. When I drank it, it felt like a knife was cutting into my stomach. After it was cut, my whole body felt so comfortable and wonderful. ....”
Everyone smiled, but there was no reply. They thought it was a bit exaggerated, my majesty.
"Come again!"
The First Emperor's tongue was spinning.
After the last experience, when I drink it again, the taste is different.
A mellow, soft and long fragrance that immediately fills the tip of the tongue, giving people a feeling of ecstasy.
"Again, again"
As the Emperor drank one glass after another, his eyes began to blur.
At this moment, Ziying in the corner seemed like he couldn't stand it any longer and said again, "I wonder if Mr. Zihao can give us two drinks?"
His purpose was obvious, which was to expose the father-son drama in public.
However.
When Zhao Hao heard this, he immediately became happy. He quickly ran to him holding the wine bottle and said with a smile, "Cousin Ziying wants to drink, of course he can."
"but."
As he spoke, he changed the topic and continued, "Real men drink a big cup, but you, with a small cup, are like a girl!"
"Hahaha--!"
Everyone burst out laughing.
Ziying's face darkened, with disdain in his heart.
He has always had a good drinking capacity, so naturally he is not afraid of big drinks, so he changed to a bigger drink without saying a word.
Zhao Hao lowered his head, with a smile of a successful scheming hanging on the corner of his mouth, which disappeared in an instant, and then he poured him a full glass of white wine honestly.
Probably half a catty in later generations.
When Ziying saw the wine in the glass, which was as light as water, he couldn't help laughing.
"Is this... good wine?"
After saying that, he casually picked up the wine glass and drank it cleanly.
Just for a moment, his expression became confused.
