Never doubt the appetizing effect of foie gras, as evidenced by Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty.

Originally, he was already a little full, but after eating the foie gras sandwich, his appetite exploded again. With Li Qi and the ministers who were almost drooling, they walked around the long table twice more.

After confirming that he had tasted all the more than twenty cold dishes, he patted his belly with satisfaction, looked extremely comfortable, and shouted lazily: "Li Qi."

Li Qi hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "The grassroots are here."

Song Huizong glanced at him and said with a smile: "Your hair is cut well."

"ah?"

Li Qi looked at Song Huizong in astonishment and murmured in his heart, could it be that my super-age delicacies gave this foolish king the ability to appreciate my super-age hair style?

Song Huizong laughed and said: "You have more than twenty delicacies, each one is more delicious than the last, which makes me a feast. Your hair is worth cutting."

Sweat! I am really good at playing, and it has nothing to do with cutting my hair.

Li Qi smiled and said: "Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty."

Song Huizong nodded and said to Cai Jing: "Cai Aiqing, I heard that you once wrote a plaque titled 'Second Chef' and gave it to Li Qi. I wonder if this is the case?"

Cai Jing said respectfully: "If you tell me back to the emperor, this is indeed true."

Song Huizong laughed and said: "I think your plaque is unfair. I have to change it."

Cai Jing smiled slightly and said: "Old minister, please remember your Majesty's teachings."

Day. Another plaque? It's always like this. Are you tired? Can you change it? For example, money, beautiful women, etc. I'm not a saint or a monk, so why make everyone unhappy.

Li Qi's eyes were filled with a look of depression that could not be concealed, and all the words he had just talked about were in vain.

Song Huizong glanced at Li Qi, shook his head with a smile, and said, "Li Qi, when will the remaining twenty dishes of yours be served?"

Damn it! You still want to eat? After all, you can estimate other people! I am not holding a banquet just for you.

Of course, you can't say this. Li Qi chuckled and said: "Your Majesty, the more than twenty dishes left are all soups and hot dishes. If they are served now, I'm afraid." At this point, he revealed a smile

An expression of hesitation to speak.

Song Huizong glared at him slightly and said, "If you have something to say, just say it. I don't blame you."

Li Qi glanced at the other ministers and said, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid that if we serve hot dishes now, the hot dishes will have turned cold before your lords have had enough of the cold dishes."

When the others heard this, they were secretly grateful to Li Qi. After being forgotten for a long time, they finally had a chance to taste delicious food.

Song Huizong was slightly startled. He glanced at the ministers behind him and understood immediately. He frowned and said: "My dear friends, you don't need to follow me. I only came here for the delicious food today. There are so many delicious foods here, and you all too."

Have a good taste."

As if they had been granted amnesty, the ministers thanked the emperor one after another, and then each looked for their favorite delicacies. Just now they listened to Li Qi's introduction and had a general understanding of each dish. Some foodies even wanted to eat it later.

The process was all thought out, but after all, the emperor was here, so they didn't dare to be too presumptuous.

Today, only Zhao Kai, Zhao Heng, Cai Jing and his son, Liang Shicheng and Li Qi are following Song Huizong.

Song Huizong then said to Cai Jing, his son and the two princes: "Three beloved ministers and princes, please step aside first."

The five of them were all stunned for a moment, and glanced at Li Qi at the same time, with a mixture of inquiry and confusion in their eyes. Then they bowed to Song Huizong and then left.

After a few people left, Song Huizong took Li Qi to the lake and said with a proud smile: "Li Qi, am I now qualified to understand your novel wine culture and taste your 'no phase'?"

Sweating! This guy can't go to court, and he thinks about this trivial matter all day long. It's really boring.

Li Qi just thought that Song Huizong was looking for him to settle accounts, but he never thought that it was because of this. He immediately breathed a sigh of relief, nodded and said with a smile: "Of course, of course, if the emperor is interested, the common people will know

Say everything and say everything.”

Song Huizong nodded and said: "Well, I will go to you in two days. You must be ready. Oh, by the way, I will also give you an apprentice when I arrive."

Sending a disciple? What does it mean?

Li Qi was stunned and asked curiously: "Your Majesty, are you looking for the royal chef to learn cooking from me? Then you think too highly of me. How can I teach them?"

Song Huizong glared at him and said angrily: "Who said I want you to teach cooking? I just want to find someone to learn from you about sketching. But don't worry, this person is very talented in drawing. He can't

It makes you worry too much."

Sweat! Let me teach people how to draw. I’m very busy.

Even though Li Qi was reluctant in every way, he still had to give this face to the emperor standing in front of him, and said: "I'm just afraid that I can't teach him well."

Song Huizong's face darkened and he threatened: "If you don't teach well, I will punish you for bullying the emperor."

Can this be considered bullying? Your Chinese language was taught by your physical education teacher, right?

Li Qi said depressedly: "What if that person didn't learn well?"

"Then I will also punish you for deceiving the emperor." Song Huizong hummed.

Damn! You are kidding me.

Li Qi looked at Song Huizong with an aggrieved face and said: "Your Majesty, I am so loyal and honest, how could I deceive you? Can you change your words? I am very timid."

"Okay." Song Huizong nodded happily.

Li Qi was overjoyed when he heard Song Huizong say: "Then you have no joke." He patted him on the shoulder, laughed, and walked towards the crowd.

Li Qi was dumbfounded as he stared at Song Huizong's handsome back. Apart from his middle finger, no words could replace the anger in his heart.

Don't you have any jokes?

If I had known this, I wouldn't have said that much just now, but now, this stupid gentleman has said everything to death, and I don't even have an excuse anymore.

Li Qi sighed deeply, shook his head, and walked over with Song Huizong. But when he returned to the banquet, the scene immediately shocked him. He saw only those ministers who were timid just now.

They are now fully integrated into the entire buffet. Almost everyone is carrying this plate, which is filled with various delicacies. They are chatting in twos and threes, but there is no one sitting on the surrounding tables.

These old guys, who were almost mature in official circles, quickly realized the beauty of this buffet banquet, and they quickly established relationships. Only Cai Jing and Liang Shicheng accompanied Song Huizong and sat on the steps. They were chatting and laughing, which was very comfortable.

Li Qi took a tour and immediately felt a political atmosphere shrouding the grassland. He called Xiaoyu over again, told her a few words to keep an eye on her, and then asked for a glass of water. He took a sip.

And Jin took a long breath. At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded from behind, "Brother Li, what did your father want to do with you just now?"

Li Qi turned around and saw that it was Zhao Kai. He smiled and said, "If I sue you, the emperor plans to ask your highness to learn cooking from me. Do you believe it or not?"

Zhao Kai rolled his eyes at him and said, "I don't believe in cooking, but learning to paint is somewhat possible."

Sure enough, he is my biological child. How could he have guessed it right? Could it be that the Hunjun really asked his son to be my apprentice? How much shorter would his lifespan be!

Li Qi looked startled and just opened his mouth. Suddenly he heard someone from behind shouting: "His Royal Highness King Yun."

Li Qi glanced slightly and saw that the person coming was none other than Zhao Ye.

Zhao Kai whispered: "I'll talk to you later." After saying that, he greeted him with a professional smile.

Li Qi naturally left wisely. He scanned the whole place and saw that the prince Zhao Heng was not idle either. He was talking and laughing with Bai Shizhong, Wu Min and others. He secretly muttered to himself, could it be that my future father-in-law is standing next to the prince?

Over there?

"Wang Xuanen, did you get it first?"

Suddenly, Li Qi heard Gao Yanei's voice coming from behind again. He turned around and saw that the man and Wang Xuan'en were both putting their forks on the last piece of foie gras sandwich, neither of them willing to give in.

Since Li Qi just said that this is the only amount of cod liver pate sandwich, this dish has undoubtedly become the first target for everyone to grab.

Then Wang Xuanen laughed and said, "It doesn't matter if you arrive first. This banquet does not stipulate that whoever arrives first belongs to whom."

Gao Yanei gasped in anger, glared at Wang Xuanen, and said: "You are obviously sincerely trying to make things difficult for me."

"It's a joke, who do you think you are, that I'm going to rob you? Are you worthy? I advise you to let go quickly, so as not to ask for trouble." Wang Xuan'en said disdainfully.

This man is indeed shameless. It seems that Gao Yanei is no match for him!

Li Qi hid aside and watched with great interest. He was used to seeing Gao Yanei's arrogant and arrogant appearance. It was rare for him to meet an opponent today. How could Li Qi let this opportunity pass?

"So what if I don't let you go?" Gao Yanei snorted angrily.

When some of the surrounding ministers saw it, they all avoided it and pretended they didn't see it. They were not qualified to take care of it, and they didn't want to wade into this muddy water.

Just when the two people were in flames, Gao Qiu suddenly came over and asked in a deep voice: "Kang'er, what's going on?"

Before Gao Yanei could speak, Wang Xuanen said first: "Oh, Uncle Gao, it's like this. Just now, my nephew heard that the emperor praised the foie gras sandwich, so he wanted to try it. Unexpectedly, my brother and I wanted to go together.

Now." He then smiled at Gao Yanei and said, "Since my brother wants to eat, let him eat first." After saying that, he took back his fork seriously.

What he said was very clever. If he hadn't known it beforehand, he would have been deceived.

Damn! This guy must be an actor, his face changes so fast.

When Li Qi saw him, he knew that Gao Yanei would be ruined.

Gao Yanei was completely confused at this time and looked at Wang Xuanen blankly.

A strange light flashed in Gao Qiu's eyes, and he lectured Gao Yanei: "Kang'er, as an older brother, you should have given way to your younger brother, but why did you start fighting with your younger brother instead? It's really outrageous."

Gao Yanei now reacted and looked at his father with a depressed face, his eyes full of grievances, but before he could speak, he heard a voice from behind, "Xuan En, what happened?"

The person who came was none other than Wang Fu.

There's something good to watch now.

Li Qi hid aside and snickered, straightened his posture, and looked at it with interest.

"Prince Prime Minister."
