Chapter 497 Tofu Feast
Chapter 497 Tofu Feast
In the Qilin Hall, seeing Sophie's expression, all the courtiers sighed in their hearts: "It seems that our prince is not only wise and benevolent, but also has great talents in various aspects such as military technology, and he is also surprisingly good at women. .”
Looking at the smiling faces of everyone, Ying Yu scratched his head helplessly.
Because it was too close to Sophie, smelling the refreshing fragrance that wafted from time to time, coupled with the flushed and shy expression on Sophie's face, suddenly made Ying Yu's heart flutter.
Although Ying Yu has seen countless beautiful women, and the Prince's Mansion is filled with Yingying and Yanyan, he is a normal man after all.
With such a beautiful woman in front of him, it was difficult for him to maintain absolute calmness in his heart, but at this banquet, it was difficult for him to show it in public.
He looked up to the seat above, and found that Ying Zheng was looking at this side eagerly, as if he wished he could communicate with Sophie more, and there was an expression of encouragement on his face intentionally or unintentionally, as if encouraging him to take the initiative.
This move made Ying Yu a little dumbfounded.
He instantly understood that the seat this time must have been deliberately arranged by Ying Zheng.
The purpose is very simple, it is naturally to promote the relationship between Ying Yu and Sophie.
It seems that even an emperor like Qin Shihuang, after all, can't avoid vulgarity when he gets old. He always wants to worry about his son's marriage, especially since Ying Yu has been taking over various important military and political affairs, Ying Zheng, who has gradually become idle, has become more and more serious. He looks like an old father.
But that's fine too, as close relatives should be like this, harmonious and warm, if Yingzheng sticks to his status as emperor and cares about the difference between monarch and minister, Yingyu feels that he is born.
Sophie is indeed born beautiful, and she can be regarded as a beauty wherever she is placed, especially as a Roman nobleman, Sophie has a unique noble and exotic style, which is very exciting.
It's a pity that Ying Yu felt that there were enough women in his family.
There is Wang Ying who is gentle and virtuous, Xiao Mei who is sexy and enchanting, and Di Ya who is noble and elegant.
Although Yu Ji said that she was a bit possessive and would eat vinegar at every turn, she was also cute and charming.
Not to mention there is a pair of sisters from the Lu family, who are also proficient in nursing and understanding. It can be said that nine out of ten of the beauties in the world have entered the Prince's residence, allowing Ying Yu to enjoy the blessings of everyone.
If another Sophie came in, Ying Yu was really afraid that his body would not be able to bear it.
No matter how energetic you are, you can't make a bowl of water completely level. If you don't handle it well and the backyard catches fire, you will be in a terrible state.
In fact, besides Ying Yu, Sophie next to him is also having a psychological struggle.
After traveling in Daqin, Sophie has fully realized the gap between Rome and Daqin. Rome, which she is proud of, is as backward and stupid as a small mountain village living in a corner in front of Daqin, and it is even like two worlds. !
If you continue to stand still like this, not to mention whether you can eliminate those hateful Carthaginians, even if you really win them, so what, they are not vulnerable in front of the Great Qin Army!
Therefore, in order to be able to learn advanced science and technology from Daqin, Sophie has vowed in her heart that she must take down Ying Yu, the prince of Daqin, and make him her servant!
"His Royal Highness, when I was in Rome, I heard that you were the first in the world, created the industrial revolution in the Great Qin Dynasty, built the steam engine that can be called the highest masterpiece in history, and there are all kinds of magical railway construction behind it, etc. Well, a great talent like you who created an era with one person may not be born in 1000 years."
Under the strong belief in the rise of Rome, Sophie finally overcomes her inner shyness and speaks.
"I don't agree with your point of view. The current well-developed steam engine and railway construction are the crystallization of wisdom accumulated by hundreds of generations of ancestors, coupled with the sweat of the working people of the Great Qin, it was possible to create the prosperity of the Great Qin today. I It's just digging it out and carrying it forward, and it can barely be regarded as a leader."
Ying Yu shook his head, but didn't take all the credit for himself.
In the years of traveling to Daqin, relying on the rewards given by the system and the memories of his previous life in his mind, Ying Yu has indeed done many earth-shattering events.
Even relying on these things, it only took a few years to shape Daqin into the world's most powerful country.
But Ying Yu did not lose his heart in the pursuit of the world, because he knew where these things came from.
This is also the reason why even though he is now the Prince of Great Qin, holding power and standing at the pinnacle of the world, his personality still hasn't changed much.
Although Ying Yu's answer was following her heart, Sophie, who was refuted, became a little embarrassed because of it.
Originally, Sophie wanted to start with a compliment, but who knew that it collapsed at the beginning, which made it impossible for her to say the topic she had prepared next.
Fortunately, this embarrassing scene did not last long, and all the waiters brought a variety of dishes, and the novel shapes and unique fragrances successfully attracted everyone's attention.
The servants came up one after another, and went down one after another.
After a while, the tables of the ministers, envoys, and Ying Zheng Ying Yu were all covered with dishes.
Mapo tofu, tiger skin tofu, tofu fish soup, tofu brain... plus a full cup of soy milk, basically all the tofu dishes Ying Yu can think of are here.
This banquet is a real tofu feast.
Looking at the white and soft thing in front of them, the Roman envoys looked at each other, and for a while they dared not speak.
They were able to represent Rome as an envoy to Daqin, so they were naturally people of extraordinary status. Rome was also considered a vast land and rich in resources. They had never eaten any rare delicacies at home, but they had never seen such dishes in front of them.
The strange shape and unique fragrance made the Roman envoys unable to recognize what kind of raw materials it was made of.
However, seeing that the other ministers of Daqin were all feasting, the food was delicious, and their stomachs were already empty after waiting for a long time before entering the court, so they didn't hesitate any longer.
After eating a bowl of tofu, the eyes of the Roman envoys immediately lit up!
This is too delicious, right?
They felt that their taste buds were constantly rolling and jumping. This uniqueness made the messengers instantly conquered by this kind of food, and the speed of eating was even faster than ever.
If it wasn't for the consideration of etiquette, I'm afraid that the table full of tofu feast would be wiped out by them in a few minutes.
"Dare to ask this lord, do you know what I am eating?"
Feeling the smooth and delicate taste in his mouth, little Scipio couldn't help asking Chen Ping beside him.
"This is the latest dish researched by His Highness the Great Qin Crown Prince. It is called tofu nao. It is made from soybean grinding. It not only smells delicious, but also promotes body fluid, moisturizes dryness, harmonizes qi, and is praised and sought after by everyone in Daqin."
With a smile on his lips, Chen Ping introduced Scipio in detail.
