When Emperor Huilin and the Empress arrived at the door, they glanced over and saw many officials of the third rank and above and the children of nobles and nobles eating in the hall.

I haven't been here for a long time, and the layout of Zhiwei Pavilion is much more elegant.

Xiao Erfen came up to meet her and said, "I'm really sorry, two guests, the shop is full today, so it's a waste of time to both of you."

Queen Zhou said: "It's not yet noon, why don't you stop doing business?"

Fennel smiled and said: "Our old store in Zhiweige is newly opened, thanks to the love of diners, the business has been very prosperous in recent days.

This box is already scheduled for next month, and today's number has already been issued in the lobby, so there is no room, I am really sorry. "

Emperor Huilin asked his entourage to take out a silver ticket of fifty taels, "Buy two seats for fifty taels."

Fennel wondered: "I'm sorry, two noblemen, we also have rules here. If the number is gone, it's gone. It's not allowed to buy a seat."

Queen Zhou said: "Forget it, you must eat Zhiwei Pavilion."

As soon as the words fell, Fu Lu, Jing Hua, Lin Mo, and Zhou Siming came together.

Lin Mo and Zhou Siming wanted to pretend that they didn't recognize them.

But Princess Fulu said: "Uncle, Aunt, you have sneaked out of the palace again!"

Emperor Huilin: "..." This niece is spoiled for nothing.

Princess Jinghua bowed and said, "Father, Queen Mother."

Emperor Huilin said: "There is no need to salute outside. I and the empress came out in modest clothes to see the people's livelihood in Chang'an City. Don't publicize it."

Princess Fulu smiled and said, "Uncle, are you going to eat in Zhiwei Pavilion?

This Zhiwei Pavilion can only make an appointment one month in advance, and the business is extremely good.

Coincidentally, the Tianzihao private room here is mine, why don't uncles come together? "

Jinghua tugged at Fulu's sleeve.

But Fu Lu has a big heart and doesn't think there is anything wrong with eating with the emperor and queen.

Zhou Siming said to Empress Zhou: "Auntie, it's really not easy to eat in Zhiwei Pavilion.

If you don't mind, you can go to Tianzihao box to eat, we can find a box at will and work together. "

Empress Zhou nodded lightly, "Okay."

She wanted to see how delicious Zhiwei Pavilion, which she hadn't eaten for four years, was.

It even made the court officials flock to it.

In the private room, Brother Tuan had just finished making a doughnut that he thought looked like Jinniang, but actually had a mouth over the eyes.

He handed it to Qiao Jinniang as if offering a treasure: "Mother, it's ready."

Qiao Jinniang smiled softly when she saw the out-of-shape doughnut: "Brother Tuan is awesome, the doughnut you made looks exactly like your father."

"But Brother Tuan is pinching Mother."

At this time, the door was opened from the outside, and Qiao Jinniang ran into Emperor Huilin and Empress Zhou unexpectedly.

Brother Tuan saw Emperor Huilin and said, "Grandfather!"

Emperor Huilin was kind to Brother Tuan, he lowered his body and hugged Brother Tuan, "Why are you here?"

Qiao Jinniang knelt again and again, "My daughter, Qiao Jinniang, kowtows to Your Majesty, Empress."

Although the woman beside her is wearing a veil, she thinks she should be the queen.

The queen took off her veil and said: "There is no need to be too polite, get up, you will come here for dinner too?"

It was the first time for Qiao Jinniang to talk to the emperor and queen at such a close distance. It would be a lie if she said she wasn't nervous.

The reason she can ignore the prince is because she still regards him as Lu Chen and not the prince.

But in front of him is the emperor and his wife who are sitting in the Tang Dynasty, and they are the emperor who will lay down millions of corpses if he is angry.

Qiao Jinniang said with embarrassment: "Go back to the queen, this Zhiwei Pavilion is a restaurant bought by the minister."

The queen said: "I heard that you opened a restaurant in Jiangnan, and the business is pretty good. It's hard to find one."

Qiao Jinniang lowered her head and twisted the veil and replied: "It's just that everyone is cheering for something new, Zhiwei Pavilion has more Jiangnan dishes.

The diners here in Chang'an have never tasted it. After the freshness wears off, the business will not be as prosperous as it is now. "

The queen said softly: "You don't have to be so nervous, since you are the shopkeeper of Zhiwei Pavilion, why not come and introduce the signature dishes of your restaurant."

When Qiao Jinniang talked about the dishes, she became less nervous, "Most of the restaurant's signatures are Jiangnan dishes. If your majesty does not dislike it, my daughter-in-law will go to the kitchen to cook for the two of you."

Qiao Jinniang didn't dare to let others feed the two nobles. If someone poisoned her, it would be troublesome.

Empress Zhou saw Qiao Jinniang's embarrassment and said, "Go and cook, you don't need to cook too much, five dishes and two soups are enough."

Qiao Jinniang replied, "Yes."

Emperor Huilin frowned and said, "What does it look like for a dignified waiter's daughter to open a restaurant and cook!"

It's not that he doesn't want to fulfill Lu Chen, it's that Qiao Jinniang can't get on the stage.

Into the kitchen.

Qiao Jinniang went to the innermost stove.

When she was young, her parents didn't allow her to learn how to cook. Later, Qiao Jinniang would secretly learn by lying on the window, so her father simply passed on his cooking skills to herself.

She is very talented in cooking, but she seldom cooks.

After Qiao Jinniang let the fennel light the fire, she thought about the dishes.

After about two quarters of an hour, five dishes and two soups were finally cooked.

Qiao Jinniang put five dishes and two soups into the food box and went to the box, placed the dishes inside on the wooden round table one by one, and slowly introduced:

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, this dish is stir-fried pork with wild rice stems. This wild rice stems just arrived in Chang'an from the south of the Yangtze River today. It is a dish that has never been served in Chang'an."

"This is the best-selling Longjing shrimp since Zhiwei Pavilion reopened. This shrimp is fresh and frozen from the south of the Yangtze River. The meat is firm and mixed with the fragrance of Longjing. It is most suitable for early summer. hot."

The attendants around him wanted to move their chopsticks first, only to hear the queen say: "There is no need to check."

The queen picked up the silver chopsticks and picked up the shrimps. The shrimps were tender and chewy, mixed with the aroma of Longjing tea, and the taste was delicious. She sighed: "It's really good, Your Majesty will also try it."

The queen took a chopstick and gave the shrimp to Emperor Huilin.

When Emperor Huilin tasted it, his eyes shone slightly. The shrimp had no fishy smell, and the taste was firm and delicious.

Qiao Jinniang brought up a casserole, "This is a famous Suzhou dish, eight-treasure duck. It uses side dishes such as scallops, ham, wrist liver, diced chicken, mushrooms, winter bamboo shoots, chestnuts, glutinous rice, and shrimps. Once the lid is opened, it will fill the whole house." All fragrant."

After Qiao Jinniang took off the lid of the casserole, the scent of the eight-treasure duck permeated...

The diners in the lobby on the first floor also smelled the aroma and asked what it was.

Qiao Jinniang used silver chopsticks to pick up a piece of meat from the duck's back for the queen, "The most delicious of these eight-treasure ducks is the duck's back meat, my lord, try it."

The queen tasted it with her chopsticks, and smiled slightly, "I have never eaten such a delicious duck before, and your Majesty will also try it?"

Emperor Huilin frowned and said, "I never eat duck meat."

The queen took a piece and handed it to Emperor Huilin, "Just try it, it's much more delicious than the one made by the imperial dining room."

Emperor Huilin reluctantly took a sip, thinking that he would eat duck meat with a bad taste...

But he didn't expect that the delicious marinade bloomed on the taste buds, and the meat was not bad at all. The duck he had always hated could be so delicious!

Qiao Jinniang brought up two more dishes, "Your Majesty, there are two more dishes, steamed crucian carp and braised lion's head.

The two soups are Jiangnan's famous pickled Duxian soup and West Lake Beef Soup.

There is also an after-dinner dessert, sweet-scented osmanthus rice wine dumplings. "

Qiao Jinniang brought the dishes to the table respectively, and next to the two lion heads was a little lion carved from radish.

On the side of the steamed crucian carp, there is Jiang Taigong carved from radish, all of which look lifelike.

"This radish is very well carved." The queen said, "I'm afraid this knife skill was not mastered overnight, but which chef carved it?"

Qiao Jinniang bowed her head and said, "Thank you for your praise, Madam, this is carved by my daughter-in-law."

Emperor Huilin dismissed it and said: "These carvings are all garish to show off the knife skills. The most important thing about a delicacy is the color and aroma."

Qiao Jinniang Nuonuo should be.

The queen glanced at Emperor Huilin, "Why are you scaring her? How do you know that this dish tastes bad?"

Emperor Huilin picked up a piece of fish and took it in his mouth, but he couldn't say any more gaudy words.

He only felt that the fish and meat he had eaten for more than forty years seemed to be for nothing...

It turns out that there is no fishy smell with fish meat, and the taste is so smooth!

Emperor Huilin actually thought that if Qiao Jinniang became the crown princess, then he could go to the East Palace for some food and drink...

No, he is the master of a generation, and he must not compromise for a few delicious delicacies, and if he speaks out, it will make people all over the world laugh!

But this dish is really delicious...
