Chapter 374 I’m full
In the front yard, Emperor Yongshun returned with a group of ministers. Everyone was smiling. They never thought that seeing others farming would be so happy. Occasionally, there would be conversations and loud laughter.
As soon as we arrived at the flower hall, maids came with water to wash everyone's hands, and then served tea. While we were drinking tea, several adults who loved tea exclaimed: "What kind of tea is this? It's the best tea!"
The ministers looked down and saw the tea leaves standing upright in their cups, and the title of the best tea was unanimously recognized by everyone.
Before Sheng Zhen had time to explain to everyone, Emperor Yongshun said arrogantly: "My dear ministers, you may not know that this tea is called Silver Needle. The tea leaves are just like what you see. When they are put into water, they stand upright like needles, so it is named Silver Needle."
"This tea soup is clear, fragrant, and sweet. Good tea, good tea!"
"I don't know where Princess Anping bought this silver needle tea. I want to buy some too."
"Yes, you can recommend one to us so we can buy some."
Sheng Zhen spoke up in time: "This silver needle tea is sold in Yousheng Tea House. If you need to buy it, you can go to the tea house and ask."
Several people bowed to Sheng Zhen and said, "Thank you, His Royal Highness the Third Prince, for telling me."
Zheng Sisi walked into the flower hall and saw that everyone was chatting happily. She came to the emperor, knelt down and saluted, "Your Majesty, lunch is ready. Would you like to move to the dining room?"
Emperor Yongshun stood up and said with a smile, "Okay, I didn't expect it to be so fast. Sisi, you have worked hard."
He then said to his ministers: "My dear ministers, please follow me to the dining room and taste what these potatoes taste like."
Everyone stood up and followed Emperor Yongshun to the dining room. They smelled a strong fragrance outside the dining room, and everyone sniffed. What a nice smell!
The dining room had been changed to have seven tables, each of which was filled with food. When Emperor Yongshun walked through the middle, he saw the same dishes everywhere.
Emperor Yongshun was led to the top table. He lifted the corner of his robe and sat down. Only Zheng Sisi and Sheng Zhen stood beside him. He was stunned for a moment and said, "The Grand Tutor is not here today. Please have dinner with me, old Duke!"
The ministers arranged their seats according to the order of the morning court. Zheng Laoguo had already taken his seat, at the table below Emperor Yongshun. When the emperor called his name, he was stunned for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, this is not appropriate. I'd better sit here."
He was afraid that there would be too many rules when dining with the emperor, and he would suffer from indigestion if he could only eat a few bites.
Emperor Yongshun waved his hand and said, "Outside the palace, there are not so many rules. Come, come, sit here. Sisi and Zhen'er are here with you. Xiao Muzi should sit here too."
Since the emperor said so, Duke Zheng had no choice but to move to the main table at the top.
When everyone arrived, Emperor Yongshun pressed his hands and said, "My dear ministers, please take a seat. Today, Princess Anping has prepared a potato feast for everyone. We just looked at the potato yield, and it is estimated that one acre of land produces more than 3,000 kilograms. This is something we dared not even think about before. Now Princess Anping has made it. This is a pioneering work and a hero of our Great Viet. Now let's taste what potatoes taste like and what dishes they can be made with. I am very happy and will not say much. Let's start eating, haha!"
Emperor Yongshun was the first to pick up the food with his chopsticks, and the ministers were waiting for the emperor to say, "It's time to eat." It was a torture to look at the table of delicious food and not be able to eat it! The emperor took the lead, and everyone followed suit.
Looking at the meat in the bowl, no one picked up the meat, but picked up the potatoes that were either brown, yellow, or beige. After taking a bite, everyone sighed.
"good to eat."
"This potato is soft and chewy, and it's very fragrant!"
"Mm, crisp and refreshing."
“Crispy and lingering flavor.”
"........."
Everyone eats different dishes, and the words of praise are also different. Anyway, one word is "delicious!" Two words are still "delicious!"
Emperor Yongshun tried each dish first and was very satisfied with each one.
Zheng Sisi also buried her head in eating. She hadn't eaten potatoes for a long time and missed them very much. She would eat after she was full.
The only sound in the entire dining room was the clinking of dishes and chopsticks; no one was talking. They truly reached the state of eating without talking.
When everyone was full, they realized that they had not eaten rice today. They were full and stuffed with potatoes alone. Even the steamed and baked potatoes without oil or salt on the table were eaten. It seems that potatoes are indeed a filling food.
Some people ate so much that they couldn't help but burp very loudly, which was particularly loud in the quiet dining room and made everyone laugh.
