Chapter 315 The key to the problem

Chen Buyi heard the emperor say that the gate of the Deyue Tower was deserted. He was startled and bowed quickly and said, "Your Majesty, this matter is the negligence of the minister. I..." Emperor Xuanzong waved his hand and did not let him continue talking.

"Okay, Chen Aiqing, you don't have to blame yourself too much. This matter has nothing to do with you. If this hot pot restaurant today was opened by someone else, Deyuelou would have no business."

Chen Buyi was still very moved by the rare enlightened emperor. This Kaiyuan prosperous era could become an unprecedented period of prosperity in Chinese history.

"Prince, please rest assured. I will go to Deyuelou tomorrow and find a way to restore Deyuelou's business."

Restore again.

It's simple to say, but it's not that easy to do.

Gao Lishi, who was standing by, naturally understood this truth very well and stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, the old slave's opinion, restoring business is not something that can be achieved. You need more time for Lord Shen."

This old guy is very good at selling favors.

After hearing this, Emperor Xuanzong nodded slightly.

"Well, what Gallis said makes sense. This matter is not urgent, so you have to take it slowly.

But, I want to hear what good advice does Chen Aiqing have?"

Good strategy.

Chen Buyi's mind flashed rapidly. The last time I ate Yuelou's dishes was before entertaining King Langya. At that time, it was cold. At the end, the pickled fish and spicy fish were very fishy because of the coldness, so the taste was naturally poor.

Before the hot pot restaurant came out, everyone had no choice but to go to Deyuelou. Now, with a better choice, Deyuelou is naturally no longer the preferred place.

"Your Majesty, I think that Deyuelou has been open for several months. No matter how delicious the dishes are, after eating them for a long time, everyone will get tired of them.

The most urgent thing now is to help Yuelou develop a few new dishes."

These words can be said to be a hit and suddenly reached the heart of Xuanzong.

Although Xuanzong did not expect to change the dishes for Deyuelou, after hearing Chen Buyi's words, he immediately felt that this was the case and it made sense.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but stroke his beard, "Well, Chen Aiqing's words are reasonable," he said, and turned to look at Gao Lishi, "Look, we won't eat this meal tonight in the hot pot restaurant, let's go to Deyuelou."

"Your Majesty, I'm ready, and the wine and food will come up soon."

Chen Buyi bowed and said quickly.

However, Xuanzong stood up firmly, turned around, and looked at the warm couch with a little reluctance in his eyes.

In this winter, Xuanzong's perseverance is beyond ordinary people to be able to resolutely leave this warm and comfortable environment.

As Emperor Xuanzong walked out, his deep mind was running rapidly.

Suddenly, I patted my forehead and found it.

When I was my teacher, I ate a lot of grilled fish.

I have to improve this grilled fish for him, so that I will not have any conflicts with my hot pot restaurant, but also maintain my own characteristics.

Wouldn't it be a killing two birds with one stone?

At the entrance of the Deyue Tower.

The young man Jiang Dong looked very excited when he saw a guest coming and quickly came out.

"Celebrity, inside..." Before he finished speaking, he saw Chen Buyi.

Emperor Xuanzong, Jiang Dong didn't know much, and said to Chen Buyi with a smile: "Mr. Shen, you are here."

Chen Buyi nodded.

"The second floor, Wangyue Pavilion, let Jiang Tang cook a few dishes, so hurry up.

In addition, prepare a raw fish for me and I want to cook.”

This time, the serving was indeed fast, and soon, a boiled fish came up.

Emperor Xuanzong raised his chopsticks and said with a smile: "I haven't been to Yuelou for a long time, I'll taste it first."

He picked up a piece of fish, put it in his mouth, and nodded slightly.

"Well, the fish from Deyuelou are really extraordinary."

Chen Buyi also agrees with this very much, but after all, it is winter and the food is cold too quickly.

At this moment, suddenly there was a burst of rapid footsteps coming from the stairs.

A little eunuch was at the door and waved to Gao Lishi.

Gao Lishi went out and came back, and whispered in Xuanzong's ear: "Emperor, Ziwei ordered Liu Gan to ask for a meeting outside."

Xuanzong couldn't help but put down his chopsticks.

"Quickly announce."

With little effort, Liu Gan walked in quickly. As soon as he entered the room, he immediately fell to his knees and kowtowed: "Congratulations to the Emperor, congratulations to the Emperor."

"Oh, where does the joy come from?"

Xuanzong immediately asked with a happy smile.

"Emperor, the good news came from Qingzhou Prefecture. General Lu won the first battle and had already captured three cities and surrounded Hongcheng."

"Okay, that's great."

Xuanzong couldn't help but stand up, much faster than he expected. In this way, it took only three or five days for Lu Qisheng to arrive in Qingzhou.

After taking the report handed over by Liu Gan, Emperor Xuanzong read it carefully and said with a smile, "Transfer my will and ordered Lu Qisheng to take down Hongcheng, destroy Yi Chu's remaining forces, and ensure the stability of the Kang clan in Langya."

It was not until Liu Gan left that Chen Buyi walked outside and ordered Jiang Dong to continue going to Cai.

Jiang Dong put it on the table and said with a smile: "This is the specialty of our store, spicy fish, please use it objectively."

Xuanzong's eyes were full of expectations, and he stretched out his chopsticks again.

But this time, he didn't say anything when he ate it.

Seeing that he seemed not very satisfied, Chen Buyi hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Your Majesty, but isn't very satisfied with this dish?"

Xuanzong thought for a while and said, "This dish tastes good, but it seems that the fishy smell is a little bit stronger."

After saying that, he pointed to the plate and said, "Come on, Chen Aiqing, you taste it, taste it."

Chen Buyi stepped forward and raised the chopsticks, gently picked up a piece, and put it in his mouth.

Well, the spicy taste seems to be unable to cover up the fishy smell.

This is the key to the problem I thought about on the road. When the weather is cold, the food is cold quickly. The fish that gets cold naturally has a strong smell.

"Your Majesty, this fish has been left in the kitchen for a while and it has become a little cold."

Chen Buyi just finished speaking.

Gao Lishi hurriedly interrupted and said, "What are you waiting for? Take it back and make another one quickly."

"No," Xuanzong waved his hand.

"No hurry, no hurry, Chen Aiqing, you continue."

"Your Majesty, this is the dilemma of Deyuelou's business. It's cold now and the food is cold too quickly. The taste is naturally reduced. Therefore, the hot pot restaurant opened and diners naturally ran away."

After hearing Chen Buyi's words, Emperor Xuanzong nodded.

"Well, what Chen Aiqing said is, is there a way to crack it?"

Chen Buyi nodded.

"Prince, please wait for a moment. We have already thought of a new dish. Let's make it for you."
