There are many exquisite furniture and utensils like this in Kuyu Fairy City.

Many people are thinking that when the time comes, they can get a batch to go back to the mansion in Chang'an City to replace them. It would be really comfortable.

In the past, when discussing matters at Chang'an Tai Chi Palace, everyone would kneel and sit behind the desk.

After a court meeting, even if it is covered with soft cushions, you will most likely be unable to stand up, and your legs will be so numb that you can no longer feel your feet.

Some elderly ministers often become dizzy and faint when they get up after kneeling for a long time.

This is also the reason why there are always imperial doctors waiting outside the palace. How many of them will be carried out during the court meeting?

"Eh? What's for lunch today?"

As soon as the emperor ordered the court to be suspended, many civil servants and generals stood up from their seats and walked around to stretch their limbs that had become stiff after sitting for a long time.

Among the generals who had been sitting impatiently for a long time, Li Mengchang excitedly touched Yu Chirong beside him, who had already begun to roll up his sleeves, and asked curiously.

"Before going to court in the morning, I went to ask the chef of the small dining hall and said that there will be meat buns and trouser noodles for lunch today!"

As soon as he talked about eating, Yu Chirong instinctively salivated, and his originally drowsy spirit perked up.

Nowadays, because the emperor lives in Wuji Immortal Palace to escape the summer heat, all officials of the Tang Dynasty also participate in politics in Wuji Immortal Palace.

Therefore, a small dining hall was set up in the palace, run by the disciples of the "Dingzu Sect" under Emperor Wuji, to provide so-called "working meals" for the palace staff.

The emperor and his ministers originally didn't know what the "Dingzu Sect" the Emperor Wuji meant when he founded the clan, but later they found out that it was a sect similar to Guanglu Temple and Shangshi Bureau, specializing in food.

Ding and Zu are sacrificial vessels, used to display animal bodies or food during the Yan feast, and they also refer to cutting and cooking techniques.

Therefore, "Dingzu Sect", together with "Tiangong Sect, Medical Sage Sect, and Shennong Sect" are one of the four sects of skills passed down by Emperor Wuji, and are also referred to as "Gong Sect, Medical Sect, Kitchen Sect, and Nong Sect".

sect.

When the monarchs and ministers had a leisurely discussion, they also speculated whether this "Dingzu Gate" was the Shangshi Bureau in the Palace of the Shangjie, which was specially used to cook meals for Emperor Ziwei.

The cooking techniques he specializes in are very complicated and sophisticated. Ever since the emperors and ministers of the Tang Dynasty moved into the Wuji Immortal Palace, every meal every day has never been the same. A mere piece of pasta has been played with various tricks by the cooking disciples.

His Majesty noticed that every meal was served in a variety of ways, so he specially invited the cooking disciples from the small dining hall to inquire about it, and told them not to worry about cooking and just cook as usual.

But those cooking disciples said that they did not cook specifically for the emperor and his ministers.

Instead, the sect leader said that the Tang Dynasty was now short of supplies, so in order to avoid wasting food, he did not pass on various extravagant heavenly cooking techniques.

They were just taught a white-case technique called "Mianbaizuo" to let them practice the basics diligently. They said that after a few years when the Tang Dynasty had abundant supplies, they would be taught the red-case technique.

Therefore, the meals are not specially changed every day. The meals provided to the monarchs and ministers are actually the work of the cooking disciples, which means that everyone eats whatever they practice for each meal.

This made the emperors and ministers of the Tang Dynasty astonished. It was difficult to understand what kind of fairy life the heavenly beings in the upper world lived.

A single grain of refined grain and fine flour can be used to make hundreds of or even more varied meals. How many years would it take to eat them in turn?

Having said that, the ministers could not help but look expectantly outside the "meeting room" while drinking the daily iced mountain fruit soup, guessing what they would eat today.

On the contrary, Yu Chirong, who had inquired about today's meal early, was half-lying in the armchair, humming leisurely back and forth, "Look at this bowl, it's big and round, look at this noodle, it's

It is long and wide...".

Li Mengchang asked him what he was humming, but Yuchi Dasha said that he overheard it from a cooking disciple when he went to inquire about the food in the morning. Maybe it was some formula for cooking techniques?

Li Mengchang was so curious that he wanted to ask more, but the waiter had already brought a bamboo dining cart and served the king and ministers a large bamboo bowl the size of a small basin, each filled with a full bowl.

Pantyhose noodles with soup and water.

Seeing the noodles in the bowl, all the monarchs and ministers understood why it was called trouser belt noodles.

In such a huge bowl of mutton soup, there is only a palm-wide noodle. Isn't it like a trouser belt?

There is also a dustpan and a dustpan of meat buns. The crispy noodles are cut into the middle and filled with a lot of marinated mutton. After one bite, the fragrant meat juice overflows. Then add a mouthful of garlic. It is a delicious meal.

!

For a moment, no one spoke in the conference room. Everyone, including His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, was holding a bowl of sea food, snoring and slurping noodles.

The civil servants were a little better, and at least they looked more polite when eating. Some of the impatient generals ate in a hurry and drank without even chewing.

The result was that when I raised my head after drinking half of the noodles, half of the noodles passed through the throat and went into the stomach. The remaining half was still hanging in the bowl like a hanged man's tongue, unable to come out or stuck in the bowl.

Well, the group of people were immediately dumbfounded. In the end, they could only put down their chopsticks and grab it with their hands. After drinking for a long time, they drank it in vain, and they pulled it out again!

Fortunately, there is no waste when you pull it out. I asked the waiter to add some mutton soup to rinse it, and I can continue to eat it. This time, the generals learned to be smart, and they won't get stuck after drinking it in one go, right?

The mutton soup is seasoned with Sichuan peppercorns, pepper, dogwood, coriander, onion, ginger, garlic and other spices. The stew is particularly delicious. It is fragrant, spicy and salty, and is very refreshing and appetizing.

Not to mention those generals who had four stomachs like cows, even His Majesty the Emperor snored and downed three large bowls, then took a breath, chewed the mutton soup, chewed garlic, and started to eat meat buns, while those who snored six or seven

The general holding the bowl of cakes held the basket and stuffed it into his mouth... That's right, one basket for each person!

Dasha Yuchi took a mouthful of half a cake, and without seeing him chewing it, he stuffed the remaining half of the cake into his mouth. He picked up the empty bowl and rushed to the waiter who was serving the meal and said loudly: "Give me another bowl!"

The waiter pushing the dining cart felt desperate. Ever since he reached General Yuchi, he was stunned and could not take another step forward.

Before he put down the big spoon in his hand, the general stretched out his bowl and ate the whole bucket of noodles by himself!

It wasn't until every bit of the noodles and cakes brought by the servants were eaten that the whole group of emperors and ministers licked their fingers and took a breath, sipping the licorice tea that was good for digestion and stomach health.

Ugly.

Li Shimin coughed dryly and looked at Wei Zheng, the most nagging Shangshu Zuocheng. He found that the old man was looking at his nose and heart, stroking his beard with a calm look. He seemed not to notice the ugly behavior of the monarch and his ministers...
