"Hey!" The horse raised its front hooves and let out a long neigh.
Zhao Jin arrived first.
"Hahaha! Your Majesty's riding skills and strategies are very good." Chu Xiaoying arrived at the finish line shortly after. There was no depression in his face about losing the game, but he laughed heartily.
"I almost failed to defeat Chu Zhonglang."
Behind them were Qiu Yue, Gong Jie and Lin Jia.
Seeing that Qiu Yue didn't look tired at all, Zhao Jin was a little surprised, "Mr. Qiu's body is in better shape than I imagined."
Looking at the frail scholar who couldn't help but feel frail, in the end he was only half a horse's head slower than Chu Xiaoying, and even after riding the horse for five laps, his breathing didn't get any heavier.
Gong Jie, who was walking over, heard this, shook his head and said with a smile: "Brother Qiu looks thin and can only shoot arrows while riding a horse, but among the few of us, the only one who can keep pace with Brother Chu is also good at martial arts!"
Zhao Jin looked at Qiu Yue in astonishment and smiled, "You should not be judged by appearance."
After saying this, Zhao Jin got off the horse and glanced up at the barbecue that was almost ready, "It's getting late, let's go try this barbecue first?"
"good!"
After the game, everyone was no longer as restrained as they were in front of Zhao Jin at first.
Chi Yi and other guards and the rest of the guards have already processed the prey and skewered the meat with bamboo skewers. There are several bottles of sauce next to it, all of which Zhao Jin has prepared himself in the past two days... 5
There are also several brushes placed on the grill for brushing sauces.
Gong Jie and the others leaned over to take a look with some curiosity.
"Is this for barbecue?" Gong Jie asked, pointing to the grill.
"Hey! Sir, this is called a grill!" The person who answered Gong Jie was his servant. When he helped, he had already figured out these things.
Gong Jie nodded, and he asked a few more questions, and his servants all answered them one by one.
Zhao Jin saw that someone had already answered the question, so he whispered to Chi Yi to light up the charcoal.
There are many chairs placed here, some high and some low, and there are two large tables, one with raw meat and one with two jars of wine.
Zhao Jin directly took a short stool and sat down next to the grill. He took a few skewers of barbecue from the table next to him and put them on the already hot grill.
"Your Highness wants to bake it himself?" Gong Jie asked in shock.
Chu Xiaoyi and others no longer bothered to study the grill. They all looked at Zhao Jin in surprise.
"Your Majesty, just leave this matter to the guards." Chu Xiaoying also grilled meat by himself when he was on an expedition, but it was out of necessity, and it was completely different from Zhao Jin's grill.
Now there are guards, guards and servants here, and Zhao Jin, who has the most distinguished status, grills meat by himself.
A smile appeared on Zhao Jin's lips, and when the meat on the grill began to change color, he neatly brushed a layer of sauce on it.
"Barbecue is the most interesting thing if you grill it yourself. Besides, they don't know how to grill it."
Qiu Yue was quite at a loss. His eyes fell on the raw meat several times, and he held back a sentence for a while, "Your Majesty, the gentleman is far away from the kitchen."
Zhao Jin kept moving his hands and said in a deep voice: "The reason why the gentleman is far away from the kitchen is because there is killing in the kitchen, so the gentleman should not cause any evil."
After applying another layer of sauce, Zhao Jin put down the brush in his hand and looked up at the people, "But, will staying away from the chef make people realize not to cause evil?"
Several others were stunned, especially the three literary men Qiu Yue, Gong Jie and Lin Jia.
Zhao Jin turned over some skewers of meat that were being grilled. Chi Yi and the two guards next to him each picked a position on the grill and took a few skewers of raw meat to grill.
The grill is huge, more than enough to seat four people.
Zhao Jin continued: "In fact, this does not create the awe that should be produced, and the killing is not reduced by half, so what does it matter if the chef is far away?"
"Aside from maintaining that fragile gentleman's skin, it serves no purpose."
Zhao Jin reached for another bottle of seasoning without raising his head to look at the four people. His eyes were still glued to his barbecue, and his lips opened and closed, "In this case, there is no need to stick to it."
The first person to come to his senses was Chu Xiaoyi. As a military general, he was more carefree and did not follow the so-called "gentleman stays far away" (this chapter is not over yet!)
Chapter 476 BBQ
Chef".
Chu Xiaoying chose a seat next to Zhao Jin, hooked his feet over a stool and sat down, "What King Xuan said is reasonable. It's not far from the kitchen. It doesn't make any sense. If you stick to this, you will be trapped in the framework.
"
While talking, he took two skewers of barbecue and put them on the grill, but when he saw the sauce, he had a problem.
Several bottles looked similar, and King Xuan used different sauces at different times before and after him, so he didn't pay attention to distinguish them for a while.
Smelling the aroma of the barbecue in Zhao Jin's hands, Chu Xiaoying couldn't help but swallow.
Zhao Jin glanced at him, reached out and picked up a bottle of sauce and handed it to Chu Xiaoyi.
Chu Xiaoying took it and said with a smile: "Thank you, King Xuan."
Qiu Yue and the other three looked at each other, hesitating for a moment whether to sit down together, but there was no room next to the grill.
Chi Yi and the two guards seemed to be aware of the three of them's thoughts, and stood up and moved away from their seats, including the half-roasted meat.
"Sir, please."
Qiu Yue lifted up his robe and sat down directly on the seat of one of the guards. There was a look of enlightenment on his face. He first bowed his hand to Zhao Jin and said, "King Xuan is right, but over the years, we have drawn our own boundaries.
Already."
This time, Zhao Jin just smiled and did not answer. From ancient times to the present, these scholars have drawn countless prisons for themselves, just for the appearance of a gentleman.
Whether you are a gentleman or not cannot be determined by your superficial skin.
Gong Jie sat down almost at the same time as Qiu Yue. He also raised his hand towards Zhao Jin, but there was still struggle in his eyes, and when he raised his hand, he hesitated.
But in the blink of an eye, Gong Jie's hand was holding a bamboo skewer for barbecue, and he was turning the meat skewers unfamiliarly.
Lin Jia, who was left, reluctantly tugged her lips, not wanting to bake it herself, but Gong Jie, who had higher official positions and greater fame than him, had already sat down.
Lin Jia could only sit aside and became even more reluctant during the barbecue.
Zhao Jin didn't speak anymore. The aroma of the barbecue skewers in his hand became stronger and stronger, causing the four people's eyes to linger on the meat skewers in Zhao Jin's hands.
After a while, Zhao Jin put on the last layer of sauce and gave each of Chu Xiaoyi and Si a skewer of barbecued meat. "Try it. It's more fragrant than setting up a fire and roasting it yourself when we were out."
The second half of the sentence was addressed to Chu Xiaoyi.
The four of them took the skewers and took a hesitant bite.
When Zhao Jin raised his head while eating the skewers, he could clearly see the four of them's eyes lighting up for a moment, and then he quickly took another bite.
When Zhao Jin was only halfway through the skewer, they had already finished the skewer.
