Next, two more delicacies were served, and Biyu ate it again. Not only Biyu, but everyone present also praised Xiaomo's cooking skills, saying that his delicacies were indeed well-deserved.

, the simple ingredients are so delicious. Compared with the delicacies from the mountains and seas, water and land used in the Taiguan Office, it is obviously more advanced.

The last dish served was steamed dolphin. At this time, Biyu had burped several times. He had never felt so full before. Halfway through the plate of steamed dolphin, he really couldn't eat anymore.

At this time, I heard someone talking next to me. I looked at it and saw that it was Wang Yan and Wang Cheng. Although the Langya Wang family came from the same family, there were also differences in status. Wang Rong was the oldest, most senior, and had the highest official position, so

His seat was at the front, and Wang Dun, as the consort, was also at the front; Wang Yan and Wang Cheng were not yet prominent, so they were at the back.

Wang Cheng said: "These delicacies in the Delicate Food Department are indeed delicacies in the world. You and I are usually tired of eating such ordinary ingredients. But after eating them today, I can't stop eating them."

Wang Yan nodded and said: "Well, it's really good. But it's especially good for other things, but when it comes to steamed dolphin, I only obey Wang Shizhong's family."

"Wang Shizhong? Are you talking about Wang Ji and Wang Wuzi?"

"Of course, who else could it be if it wasn't him?"

At this time, Wang Ji was also at the banquet. He was the one who gambled with Wang Kai on archery with 10 million and 5 baht, killed Wang Kai's precious cow, and ate the heart of the roasted cow. Wang Ji and Wang Kai added

On Shi Chong, the three were the richest people at that time and the three people who liked to fight for wealth the most. Wang Ji was a servant and the emperor's consort, so he was positioned higher.

"Why, what's so special about his steamed dolphin? Is it better than the culinary skills of the Culinary Department?"

Wang Yan shook his head and said with a smile: "His steamed pork is not superior in cooking skills, but comes from the special characteristics of the suckling pig itself."

"The pig itself?"

"Yeah. When his suckling pigs are thirsty, they don't give them water. They feed them human milk instead."

"Feeding human breast milk?" Shu Yan and Xiao Mo almost dropped their jaws when they heard this. Even Bi Yu, who came from a wealthy family, was also secretly surprised.

At this time, Wang Yan saw that everyone around him was surprised, so he lowered his voice and said: "I have eaten at his house once, and that kind of taste - no matter how good your cooking skills are, you can't make it."

Wang Cheng said: "Isn't it too extravagant and absurd to feed pigs human milk?"

"So, our Majesty went to his house for dinner, and Wang Shizhong served steamed dolphins fed with human milk. The emperor felt that the taste was different after eating it, so he asked why. Wang Ji told the truth, and his Majesty was so angry that he threw away his sleeves."

After Biyu heard this strange talk, he thought to himself: My Shi family can be regarded as a prosperous family, but compared with a family like Wang Ji, it is still far behind. Even the emperor found things ridiculous and excessive, but he felt envious.

At this point in the banquet, the ministers had already had several drinks with the emperor. There were also many people who were good at singing hymns and praised the prosperous times today. When Sima Yan was happy, he orally said: "Today

I am happy, but just drinking wine is not enough - come here, bring me the barrel of wine that Dawan Kingdom paid tribute to."

After a while, Ye Chong, the wine chief of the Liangjiao Department, led four people to carry up a large wooden barrel. Sima Yan ordered the sealed wine barrel to be opened and the wine was distributed to everyone present.

Of course, the order of wine distribution is still from high to low. Fortunately, there was still a little left when we arrived at Biyu and Shu Yan. Biyu had drunk wine, but Shu Yan had not. He looked at

There was still some suspended matter in the purple-red liquid in the cup, so he said, "Foreigners are really careless. Why haven't the lees been cleaned out of the wine used as tribute?"

Biyu said: "Don't be stupid, that's the remaining wine base for us."

Xiao Mo also looked at the wine in his glass and said: "It doesn't matter, wine is just like that, it doesn't affect the taste at all."

After hearing this, Biyu said with disdain: "Hey, when you say it, you seem to understand it very well."

"Of course I know better than you. Although I can't make wine, my grandmother is from Dawan, so I know something about it."

Shu Yan had heard about wine, but had never drank it. If he was given a glass of something so dark and muddy out of thin air and asked to drink it, he would definitely not dare to drink it, but at this time he believed Xiao Mo's words and took a sniff.

, a refreshing feeling hit his nose, and he was relieved. At this time, Sima Yan

Seeing that everyone had filled up the wine, they ordered everyone to raise their glasses together. Shu Yan and the other three picked up the glasses and drank them all in one gulp. After Shu Yan finished the wine, there was still a sweet fruity aroma left in his mouth, followed by

The wine I just drank was very different, and I praised it inadvertently: "Wonderful."

It was just a compliment inadvertently, but it made Xiao Mo become serious. "Why, do you like to drink this kind of wine?"

Shu Yan replied casually without comment: "There is too little wine, there is no more."

She heard Shu Yan's praise and guessed that Shu Yan must like to drink wine, but he still wanted to drink wine, but he wanted to drink it, but it was not available. Suddenly, a big idea came to her mind: she wanted to go home once.

Many people were drunk at today's banquet. For example, Wei Guan, apart from members of the royal Sima family, has the highest title. He is at the level of a county prince, and his official position is also ranked among the third princes, so he is closest to the emperor. As the saying goes:

Tell the truth after drinking, make trouble after drinking. Wei Guan is getting older

, naturally he can't bear to drink, and he is also an upright and loyal minister. He looked at the people of the Yang Party and Jia Party becoming increasingly domineering, and remembered that King Sima You of Qi was squeezed out of the core of the imperial court, the old emperor's health declined, and the stupid prince's intelligence was not at all

Changjin, so he is very worried about the future of Dajin.

With the strength of his drink, he walked to Sima Yan's seat and knelt down, saying with emotion: "I have something to say."

Sima Yan asked: "What do you want to say?"

Wei Guan opened his mouth and wanted to persuade the emperor again: Prince Sima Zhong was not suitable to inherit the throne and someone else should be chosen. But when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back, as if he had concerns. Then he couldn't help but say it again, but still

He did not say anything, and repeated this three times. In the end, he still did not say it clearly, but just patted the emperor's throne with his hand and said: "This throne is a pity."

Of course Sima Yan understood what he meant, but in front of everyone, he couldn't say anything. He just said: "Mr. Wei, you are really drunk."

After hearing this, Wei Guan felt that there was no need to say any more, so he asked Zui to retreat. As soon as Wei Guan said this, his political opponents Yang Dang and Jia Dang also understood the meaning of his words, and from then on they

It laid the foundation for his trouble, and later almost caused the whole family to be destroyed.

After the banquet, Xiao Mo was walking back with his head down. Suddenly someone tapped him on the shoulder. When he turned around, he saw that it was the Seventeenth Princess. She was just thinking about something on her mind. She was startled and said angrily: "Can you?"

You can't respect yourself, you are a princess, how do you look like you are slapping a man?"

After hearing this, the seventeenth princess laughed and said: "Man? What kind of man are you? You are just a little eunuch. I have been used to being served by you little eunuchs since I was a child. Am I still afraid of you?"

After Xiao Mo drank some wine, her outspokenness came back, and she said carelessly: "Aren't you afraid that I am a fake eunuch?" After saying this, Xiao Mo suddenly felt speechless, and his heart started to beat loudly.

I got up, secretly wishing to slap myself in the mouth, cursing in my heart: Bad thing, this bad mouth.

Xiao Mo was regretting his mistake, but the Seventeenth Princess didn't notice it at all, "False eunuch? How could there be a fake eunuch in the palace, unless he doesn't want the lives of his whole family." She looked at the nervous Xiao Mo, but she thought

He smiled even brighter, "Looking at your appearance, your body and your behavior, you are more of a real eunuch than a real eunuch, how could it be a fake? Then again - it would be better if you were a fake eunuch."

"Huh? How do you say this?"

"Uh..." Princess Seventeen lowered her head and said shyly, "If you are a fake eunuch, I will choose you as my consort!"

…

I am just a fake eunuch, but not the fake one you think. I am the same young girl as you.

Xiao Mo was speechless to the extreme, but he felt relieved when he thought that the princess didn't care too much about him.

After the Seventeenth Princess said this, she felt quite embarrassed, so she changed the subject and said, "You sat with two young men at the banquet. Who were they? Is there the Minister who lives with you at the Minister's Terrace?

Lang?"

Xiao Mo didn't answer, but wanted to tease this young girl who was just in love, so he smiled and said, "What do you think of those two teenagers?"

The seventeenth princess thought for a while and said: "Well, they are all very good, handsome and elegant."

"Then if you were asked to choose one person to be your consort, which one would you choose?"

"Xiao Mo, how dare you make fun of me." Princess Seventeen said with a pout.

"What are you afraid of? Now you know how shy you are? I wonder who just said that they wanted to choose a prince-in-law!"

"Humph! This is different from just now. The reason why I am willing to tell you that is because you will never be a prince-in-law, so you dare to make such a joke."

Xiao Mo also snorted and continued to force her to submit: "I still have a portion of the steamed dolphin and mutton stewed radish I made for you. If you don't tell me, I will give it to someone else!"

Perhaps because she couldn't resist the temptation of delicious food, or perhaps because she regarded Xiao Mo as a good friend who talked about everything, Princess Seventeen thought for a while and then compromised: "I said, you are not allowed to tell anyone."

"Of course." While Princess Seventeen was thinking, Xiao Mo was also guessing who she would choose.

"The person sitting at the bottom..."

Choose Brother Shu? Xiao Mo's heart skipped a beat. She knew clearly that the other person was joking with her, but she still felt an inexplicable sour feeling in her heart.

"The person sitting at the bottom, although he is elegant and majestic, but lacks a bit of romantic charm; the person sitting next to him, although he is a little frail, has a romantic manner and free and easy words and deeds. He is the popular aristocratic family today.

An example of a gentleman."

"You mean, do you like that young master? You have such a good taste. He is really a young master from an aristocratic family. His surname is Shi, let me tell you his name..."

"That's enough, Xiao Mo, we were just joking. If you keep talking, it will be too much!" After that, Princess Seventeen walked away angrily.

Although Princess Seventeen was forced by herself to say it, she seemed to prefer Biyu. Xiao Mo looked at her back and thought to himself: I like Brother Shu like that, but some people prefer Biyu.
