Douluo Continent on the tip of the tongue

Zhou Yuan was not the only one who discovered that De Hongchen had entered Hanshi. Other ministers also gradually discovered this imperial master who had rarely been to the imperial court for several months. If it were not for the purpose of hiding their identities, they might have stood up one by one and asked the emperor at this moment.

They saluted, but even so, they still showed obvious abnormalities.

De Hongchen's eyes flashed slightly, his lips trembled, and his voice appeared in the ears of all the ministers in the dining area.

"I'm here to have a meal, you can just ignore me and do whatever you have to do."

As De Hongchen spoke, the ministers calmed down one by one and continued to play their roles as breadwinners.

A trace of doubt flashed across Zhou Yuan's eyes.

The emperor's master had never gone to court, so how could he know the plans discussed in the court?

Immediately he smiled dumbly again.

I almost forgot about the Hongchen Hall Master. I think it was the Hongchen Hall Master who told the Imperial Master.

The doubts in his mind dissipated, and he continued to taste his Longjing shrimp while patiently waiting for the subsequent dishes to be served.

"Your fish-flavored shredded pork and white rice are here."

Without making Zhou Yuan wait too long, Qi Han quickly brought out Zhou Yuan's subsequent dishes, and immediately noticed the energetic old man who had just walked into the dining area.

It's a new face. Didn't come yesterday?

That probably has nothing to do with Xu Jiyun. Could it be that a nearby resident happened to pass by and come in for a meal?

Seeing De Hongchen's plain and simple coarse cloth robe that was completely different from other diners, Qi Han became more and more determined and immediately walked towards him with a somewhat friendly smile on his face.

"Old man, what would you like to eat?"

As he got closer, Qi Han noticed that this old man was a little different from ordinary old men.

His eyes do not have the turbid feeling of ordinary elderly people, but are as clear as a baby's, and the blue is as deep as the sea. His body is not particularly strong, and his height is about the same as Qi Han's, but he looks slightly shorter due to his age.

, with a ruddy and healthy face with a somewhat easy-going smile, giving people a feeling of spring breeze.

De Hongchen looked at Qi Han carefully first, then found a place to sit down, "Young man, is this lunch box yours?"

With that said, he handed the lunch box in his hand to Qi Han.

"Yes." Qi Han nodded, remembering the middle-aged man who asked him for a lunch box at noon.

Thinking that he did not come with other diners at noon, but was also a middle-aged man introduced by Xu Jiyun, Qi Han realized that his previous guess was wrong.

But it's not a big problem.

After taking the lunch box, Qi Han began to introduce it, "This is our menu. Just tell me what food you want. Our restaurant does not allow waste. Please pay attention to this."

"Waste?" De Hongchen shook his head, "I can't bear to waste such delicious food. Young man, go ahead and do your work. I'll take a look at this menu first."

"Okay." Having finished what should be explained, Qi Han saw the old man in front of him starting to read the menu. Qi Han turned back to the kitchen and continued cooking the next diner's dishes.

Well... I'm getting busy today. Do you want to recruit a waiter?

Forget it, let's see again in a few days.

Thinking about it in his mind, Qi Han moved his knife like flying and quickly cut the ingredients into thin slices of uniform thickness.

A person who cooks, a soul who cooks, and a person who cooks are the best!

…

Slowly looking away from Qi Han, De Hongchen's eyes flickered with an inexplicable light. He quickly turned his gaze back to the menu and started flipping through it slowly while murmuring in a low voice.

"There are so many types of dishes... Huh? Is this a painted picture? It's so tempting. Just looking at this picture, I actually have an appetite... Let me take a look... This squirrel mandarin fish looks very good.

, I have to get a copy, and this..."

A while passed, and when Qi Han passed by De Hongchen again, the old man who was looking at the menu with great interest suddenly raised his head and said, "Young man, I know what to eat."

"You said it." Qi Han casually took out a pen and prepared to record it.

"A piece of squirrel mandarin fish, a piece of mapo tofu, and a piece of white rice."

As De Hongchen spoke, he looked at the other dishes on the menu.

Alas, it's a pity that he doesn't have a big stomach and can't eat so much, otherwise he would have liked to taste all the dishes at once.

I can only come a few more times in the future.

If every dish in this cold food is as delicious as the dragon beard noodles and pot-roasted pork at lunch, I might as well eat here every meal from now on.

De Hongchen touched the beard on his chin and smiled, his face becoming more and more expectant.

He didn't have to wait too long, and the dishes belonging to De Hongchen were quickly served. The first thing that was served was the mapo tofu and white rice. As for the squirrel mandarin fish, he still had to wait for a while.

Pulling the plate containing Mapo Tofu towards him a little, a peculiar spicy smell wrapped in the mellow bean aroma slowly penetrated into De Hongchen's nose.

This taste...

De Hongchen sniffed and his eyes suddenly lit up.

The Guobao Pork he had eaten at noon was sweet and sour, while the Dragon Beard Noodles were salty and fresh. De Hongchen, who had been conquered by these two flavors of food, now smelled a spicy taste that he had never experienced before.

Suddenly I felt refreshed.

The tofu on the plate is piled up in pieces. The extremely soft and tender texture makes the tofu slightly deform due to the squeezing. The surface of the tofu is covered with a dark brown-red sauce with tempeh and crushed chili peppers. This sauce

Each piece of tofu is evenly wrapped, reflecting a crystal luster under the light. Just seeing the attractive appearance, De Hongchen couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

Give it a try.

Without hesitation, he stretched out his chopsticks and gently picked up a piece of tofu.

Although the tofu looks extremely soft and tender, it is not as difficult to pick up as expected, or it does not break apart as soon as you pick it up. Although it is shaking and slightly deformed under the clamping of chopsticks, the tofu itself remains intact.

.

Just looking at this tofu, De Hongchen could almost imagine how smooth and delicious it would be when it entered his mouth.

When the tofu entered his mouth, the mapo tofu soup coating the surface instantly touched the taste buds at the tip of his tongue, and a crispy and spicy taste that De Hongchen had never experienced exploded between his lips and teeth unexpectedly.

As the soft and tender tofu breaks into pieces when you take a sip, it melts in your mouth, stimulating the rich bean flavor and merging with the mapo tofu soup, intertwining two completely different flavors that highlight each other.

The taste was so wonderful that De Hongchen was so impressed.

After eating a piece of tofu, feeling the salty and spicy taste remaining in his mouth, De Hongchen's eyes couldn't help but look at the white rice that was as shiny as pearls on the side.

The appearance of this white rice is far more attractive than any rice De Hongchen has ever seen. At this moment, with the delicious taste of mapo tofu left in his mouth, De Hongchen looks at the white rice as if he is looking at a supreme delicacy.

generally.

Pick up a small ball of rice and put it into your mouth, feeling the grains of rice slowly breaking apart as you chew, and the sweet rice flavor slowly blends with the mapo tofu soup remaining in your mouth.

De Hongchen couldn't help but have a smile on his face.

The combination of mapo tofu and rice is really wonderful.

His cooking speed became faster.
