Chapter 66 A Village Called Modern
"After the banquet is over, I will go to the Prime Minister's Mansion with you!" The Eighth Prince said excitedly.

Qu Linglong's eyes lit up!Anyway, no one has seen the brewer, so just go to the big brother's tavern and find a brewer to replace him.

Thinking of this, she looked at Yun Daozi and asked, "Is the national teacher going?"

"No need." Yun Daozi said lightly.

"Master, aren't you looking for a brewer? Why don't you go?" The eighth prince wondered.

Yun Daozi looked at Xia Jin who was beating his chest and coughing, but didn't speak.

When everyone is present, the banquet begins.

This banquet gathered a lot of unmarried sons and ladies. After the birthday celebration, the ladies will take turns to perform.

Of course, their performances are all purposeful, firstly to increase their reputation in the aristocratic circle of the capital, secondly to choose a good husband, to meet each other at the banquet, and to get engaged in private, most of them are in the It happened at such a large banquet.

Of course, a part of it was aimed at Lin Ziyi like Qu Linglong.

Some of them came for the eighth prince, and some even targeted the national teacher.

Xia Jin, on the contrary, stared at the dishes on the table!
The first dish is a crisp and refreshing strip of pickled radish, which Qin Haoou personally dried at the beginning of the year. It tastes crunchy, sweet and spicy, and is the most suitable appetizer.

Lin Ziyi was sitting next to Xia Jin. Hearing the sound of her eating radish sticks, he turned his head and saw that she was eating with relish, the corners of her mouth were glistening, and she was licking the corners of her mouth from time to time. Like a kitten.

He propped his chin, watching Xia Jin eat with great interest.

From appetizing radish strips, to refreshing vegetable mixed plate, to steamed fish, roast chicken, and lion head.

She squinted her eyes from time to time, savoring it carefully, with a look of enjoyment.

No matter what the outside world is like, all she has in her eyes is the delicacies on the table, as if nothing can bother her or affect her.

"General?"

Lin Ziyi came back to his senses, and turned his head to look at the woman who was standing in the middle of the hall, looking at him shyly.

"Say." He returned to his cold look.

"I heard that the general can play the flute, Tian'er wants to ask the general to play the flute as an accompaniment."

"There are many musicians in the back, and you can choose who you want to find." Lin Ziyi replied straightforwardly.

The old lady and Mrs. Sun are no longer surprised, this answer is a normal operation.

If he really went up to play the flute, he would have seen a ghost!

After eating and drinking, Xia Jin looked up and saw Lin Ziyi looking at him strangely, his eyes met, Lin Ziyi quickly looked away.

Seeing that Lin Ziyi didn't move his chopsticks, Xia Jin asked, "Will the general not eat?"

"In this kind of banquet, all the food is laid out, and no one can use chopsticks." Lin Ziyi said.

Xia Jin held her chin, "This is very similar to some celebrity banquets in modern times!"

"Modern?" Lin Ziyi narrowed his eyes.

Xia Jin explained: "A village called Modern."

"The name of this village is very strange." Lin Ziyi said.

Seeing that no one moved their chopsticks, Xia Jin recalled that his apprentice had been busy for three whole days to make preparations, so he couldn't help but read Li Shen's pity for farmers.
"Plant a grain of millet in the spring and harvest ten thousand seeds in the autumn. There is no idle land in the world, and the farmer still starves to death... At noon on the day of hoeing, the sweat drops to the soil. Who knows that the food on the plate is hard work!"

"It took so much manpower, material and financial resources and the chef's hard work, but in the end no one ate it. A good table of dishes was wasted. Grandpa Yuan's heart will ache when he sees it in the sky."

Xia Jin spoke softly, her voice was not loud, but her eyes were full of helplessness.

Every time Xia Jin uses excessive powers, she needs a lot of food supplements. She knows the feeling of starvation too well, and the feeling of being so exhausted that the whole body is shaking is not at all pleasant.

Therefore, she cherishes food very much on weekdays.

It is precisely because of this persistence and affection that she embarked on the path of being a chef.

Lin Ziyi was shocked by Xia Jin's words!

Looking down at the food on the table, he frowned.

"Stop!" He suddenly stood up.

The lady who was performing stopped, the musicians stopped playing, and all looked at Lin Ziyi.

"These dishes are made by Chef Qin from Deshenglou. Please enjoy them. As for the singing and dancing performances, let the dancers add to the fun."

After Lin Ziyi finished speaking, he sat down and began to eat the dishes on the table.

Seeing this, the old lady nodded.

"Everyone eat, don't go back hungry, today is Laoshen's birthday banquet, everyone eats and drinks well, that's the happiest thing!"

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay. In fact, they were already hungry. Seeing that the general had taken the lead in eating, they picked up their bowls and chopsticks and started eating.

For a while, the princes and ladies who had been sitting straight watching the performance all began to feast on it.

You can't dance when you're full, you can't sing when you drink too much soup, and you lose your appearance when you get oil stains on your clothes, all of which are forgotten!
Looking at this scene, Xia Jin gestured a thumbs up to Lin Ziyi.

The corners of Lin Ziyi's mouth could not help but raise a nice curve, and even the food on the plate became delicious.

The banquet was coming to an end, and everyone had almost eaten.

It was the first time for them to come to a banquet like this, but eat enough to go home.

You must know that the carriages of these ladies are all equipped with dry food, just waiting for the hunger after the banquet.

Now, it's completely useless!
With Xia Jin's guidance, Qin Haoou's cooking skills have improved by leaps and bounds, and it's no problem to conquer their taste buds!
Suddenly there was a noisy sound outside.

Not long after, Housekeeper Luo hurried in and said out of breath: "Old Madam, General, Jin Yiwei broke in, and this old slave can't stop him!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a group of brocade guards dressed in vermilion brocade rushed in.

"The commander received a secret report that he suspected that the general's mansion had secretly communicated with foreign enemies, so he came here to investigate! Search!"

As soon as he gave an order, Jin Yiwei scattered and walked towards different courtyards.

"Who dares!" Lin Ziyi shouted angrily.

Commander Du cupped his hands and said, "General Lin, I am following orders, so don't embarrass me. Besides, if the general is able to act and sit properly, are you still afraid of investigation?"

Lin Ziyi looked at him indifferently, full of aura, overwhelming momentum!
"Just try it!"

Commander Du twitched the corners of his mouth, lowered his head slightly, cupped his hands and said, "If we don't find it, we will leave on our own, and we will ask the general to assist us! Otherwise, we will not be able to explain to the emperor!"

Is this using the emperor to suppress people?
Lin Ziyi snorted coldly and said:
"If you want to search the general's mansion, then confront the person who reported this general, otherwise, don't even think about it!"

As soon as Lin Ziyi finished speaking, Mu Gu led his soldiers to surround them.

When Commander Du saw this, his face became gloomy, and he persuaded: "The duty of our Jinyiwei is to investigate people and things in the capital that are unfavorable to the emperor and the court, and now it is just enforcing the law impartially, so I ask General Lin to think twice before acting! "
