After rebirth, my mother came to power based on her son.

"..."

After being speechless for a moment, Mu Qingge raised a very hypocritical smile: "It's my fault. I should have kept my eyes on Your Majesty and shouldn't have looked at others again."

"After all, Your Majesty is my concubine's heart, my treasure, and my heaven."

"How can I, my concubine, look at other people? From now on, I, my concubine, will only look at your majesty. Is your majesty satisfied?"

Seeing that everyone was looking at the dancer in the palace, and the sound of silk and bamboo was not quiet, it could completely cover up the voices of the two people talking, Li Xiao lowered his eyes and laughed out loud.

Out of control.

"Okay, okay, if the Queen can really do it, just look at me, then of course it would be the best."

Li Xiao lowered his head and smiled heartily, his hand holding the wine glass trembling.

I simply couldn't see it.

Mu Qingge took a deep breath: "Stop it, don't let the envoys from other countries see the joke."

"People don't know, they think that our new emperor of Li Kingdom is suffering from epilepsy."

Li Xiao almost choked on his saliva and wanted to laugh again.

He stretched out his hand to hold Mu Qingge's hand and stopped laughing: "I didn't know before that my Qingqing is such an interesting person."

"There are still many things you don't know."

While the two were talking, the maid on the side knelt down beside them at the table and placed two dishes in front of Mu Qingge and Li Xiao respectively.

Mu Qingge looked at the dishes in front of her and raised her eyebrows slightly: "What is this? Beef tendon?"

The palace maid turned around and asked a few questions in a low voice, then turned back and explained to Mu Qingge, "It's deer sinew."

Deer sinew?

Mu Qingge was stunned for a moment and turned to look at Li Xiao. Li Xiao's eyes had already turned to the dancer who was dancing in the palace. Kanshu La

"His Majesty."

Mu Qingge reached out and pulled Li Xiao's sleeve slightly. Li Xiao immediately tilted his body towards Mu Qingge: "What's wrong?"

"The palace maid told me just now that this dish is deer tendon."

Mu Qingge lowered her voice and said in a slightly urgent tone: "I saw Your Majesty reading a book on the customs of various countries before, and I also took a look at it."

"There is an introduction in it that Si Youguo respects deer and never eats deer meat."

Those books were all found by Li Xiao. Mu Qingge had read them, and so had Li Xiao.

Li Xiao's expression suddenly turned cold: "I guessed it right. Every process of the palace banquet is strictly inspected. They can't do anything openly and can only use this dark method."

"The menu for the palace banquet reported to me by the imperial dining room did not include the dish of deer sinew."

Mu Qingge looked towards the envoy of Siyou Kingdom. The palace maid had already placed the deer tendon in front of the envoy of Siyou Kingdom.

Mu Qing's singer's fingers trembled slightly: "The food is already served."

What to do now?

Li Xiao reached out and held Mu Qingge's hand: "Don't worry, the soldiers will come to cover up the water and the earth."

"We make the food. If we say what it is, then it can only be what it is."

"Have you forgotten? I am the best at confusing right and wrong."

As soon as Li Xiao finished speaking, Mu Qingge heard the sound of war drums gradually weakening. She raised her head and watched the dancer leave the golden palace. From the corner of her eye, she saw an envoy from Si Youguo holding the deer tendon.

have eaten.

Mu Qingge's eyelids twitched. As expected, after the envoy finished eating, he took advantage of the silence in the palace to speak: "Before I came here, I heard that Liguo's food is famous all over the world, and it is indeed well-deserved."

"I just don't know what this dish is? Can you give us the recipe? We can go back and ask the cook to make it."

Li Xiao lowered his eyes and smiled: "This dish is Kung Pao beef tendon."

"Kung Pao Beef Tendon? Is it made from beef tendon?"

Mu Qingge, who was sitting at the bottom of Siyou Kingdom, was an envoy from an unknown country and seemed a little surprised: "Beef tendon? Why does it not taste like beef tendon to me, but more like deer tendon?"

Mu Qingge's eyelids twitched

, is there someone who is helping the envoys of Si Youguo to cooperate with this harmonious one?

I'm afraid there's more than one person cooperating.

Before anyone else could speak, Mu Qingge took over the conversation with a smile: "This envoy may have tasted the wrong thing."

"Although I have not participated in the preparations for this palace banquet because I have not been in the palace for a long time, our majesty is very concerned about this palace banquet. Before the palace banquet, he specially asked people to prepare the preparations for this palace banquet.

I also gave it to the person in charge of the preparations for the palace banquet to read it carefully."

"I followed Your Majesty and took a rough look at it. Although I only took a brief look at it, I also remembered that there is a record in the book about Si You Country that deer is the sacred beast that Si You Country believes in."

"The deer means fortune. It symbolizes good luck, wealth and power."

"A deer lives a thousand years, and when it reaches five hundred years old, its color will turn white. It also symbolizes longevity."

"The people of Siyou do not eat deer, and regard eating deer as a very evil thing."

"Although this is the Kingdom of Li, our Kingdom of Li is a huge country and respects all foreign customs. It is absolutely impossible for us to serve deer sinews at such a palace banquet."

Mu Qingge's voice was gentle, with a smile on her face. After speaking, she looked at the envoy from an unknown country who had spoken before.

"This envoy seems to be very keen on food. I am not so keen. I have eaten the beef tendon just now, but to me, beef tendon, donkey tendon, horse tendon and mutton tendon all seem to be the same.

, and I really can’t taste the difference.”

Before the envoy could answer, Mu Qingge turned to look at Li Xiao: "Your Majesty, just listening to music and enjoying singing and dancing seems a bit boring. The envoy just now gave me some inspiration, why not

, how about we play a game?"

Li Xiao turned his head and looked at Mu Qingge with a smile: "What game does the Queen want to play?"

Mu Qingge glanced at the envoy: "Why don't you just come and guess what the dish is like?"

"Every time we serve a dish, everyone can taste it immediately. After tasting it, everyone can stand up and answer questions. Guess what the dish is and what the main ingredients are. How cool.

?」

Li Xiao smiled: "It is indeed interesting."

Mu Qingge nodded: "After all, although we can see what the dishes on the plate look like, many things, especially meat, are very easy to confuse, but maybe we have real gourmets in the palace who can still taste it.

Some subtle differences are just as important as whose taste is more sensitive."

Mu Qingge rolled her eyes: "But just playing games without rewards and punishments is really boring."

"Why don't you, Your Majesty, set rewards and punishments?"

Li Xiao laughed: "Forget about punishment. It's just for fun, so just reward."

"It just so happens that I got some new gadgets recently. I'll ask someone to bring them over as a reward."

Mu Qingge nodded: "Then your Majesty will come to make the decision? Oh, the Minister of Rites, and those who know the menu of this palace banquet, can they not participate? We must be fair and just."

Li Xiao laughed: "Okay, no problem."
