The latest, most expensive, rarest, and most delicious food?
Hearing these adjectives, King Han, the concubines, and Little Li were all invigorated. They were interested to know what kind of delicacy this was.
Was it really as Su Ye said?
"What kind of delicacy is this?" King Han asked.
At this moment, his taste buds were already excited, and he could not wait to taste it.
"In a small country in ancient times, this delicacy was treated as a tribute. Only those with high status and power, or even the ruler of a country, were qualified to taste it. Ordinary commoners, high-ranking officials, and nobles were not qualified to taste it at all.”
"To be able to eat such delicacies once is simply the greatest honor. It's an honor for a lifetime and I have no regrets in death.”
Su Ye looked a little excited as he explained the power of this delicacy.
When King Han heard this, he became even more excited.
As the king of Han, the ruler of a country, he had the right to taste such delicacies.
Only he was qualified to taste this delicacy.
In fact, he even made many connections.
"Tell me, what is this delicacy?”King Han asked. He was a little excited and his eyes widened.
The others were all curious and listened attentively, afraid that they would miss it.
"Herbal Tea Egg." Su Ye said indifferently.
King Han originally thought that this was a very novel delicacy. He did not expect it to be an egg, and he instantly frowned.
Although he had never heard of the new name of Herbal Tea Eggs, he had eaten eggs, duck eggs, and bird eggs before. He had basically tried all kinds of eating methods.
The Herbal Tea Eggs were indeed novel, but were they really as delicious as Su Ye had said?
King Han began to suspect that Su Ye was trying to fool him.
He was the ruler of a country, and he definitely could not tolerate such a thing.
At this moment, the gaze he used to look at Su Ye became a little sharper.
Seeing King Han's reaction, Su Ye was not surprised nor nervous.
Everything was under control!
"I think Your Majesty should be suspicious. It's normal to be suspicious, but what I want to say is that the eggs that Your Majesty eats are definitely different from my tea eggs.”Su Ye said," How can those rubbish things be compared to the Herbal Tea Eggs? They're like clouds and mud.”
"Oh? I want to hear your explanation. Tell me what's so special about the Herbal Tea Eggs you brought.”King Han asked.
If Su Ye couldn't give a reasonable explanation, then Su Ye would be guilty of deceiving the emperor, and King Han would definitely not let him off easily.
How could he forgive teasing the Monarch?
"The main ingredient of my tea egg is the Blue Luan egg. The supplementary ingredients are Dao Comprehension Tea Leaves, Heavenly Spring Holy Water, South Sea Spirit Salt, and Coca-Cola. The secondary supplementary ingredients are Thousand Year Red Sage, Hundred Year Red Flower, and Thunderstruck Wood Peach Seed.”
"Every single ingredient requires a lot of effort to find and collect, and even a lot of money to obtain. You can't lack any of them to cook this kind of Herbal Tea Egg.”Su Ye's expression was serious as he slowly explained.
" Even if I gather all these ingredients, it won't be easy to cook a perfect Herbal Tea Egg. I have to follow all sorts of procedures and steps to cook it for seven days and seven nights. I can't turn off the fire during this period, and I have to pay attention to the temperature at all times. I can't make any mistakes. Otherwise, I'll fail and all the ingredients will be useless.”
"I failed eight times in a row before I succeeded today. Otherwise, the king wouldn't have been able to eat the Herbal Tea Egg.”
Hearing Su Ye mention the precious ingredients needed to brew the Herbal Tea Egg, and the fact that he had to spend such a long time and fail so many times before he could successfully brew a Herbal Tea Egg, King Han couldn't help but sigh.
"So I was ignorant. I didn't expect the Herbal Tea Egg to be so rare and difficult to cook.”King Han sighed.
He didn't expect that cooking this kind of Herbal Tea Egg would be so exquisite. The process was so replicated and required so many precious raw materials.
There really was always someone better!
"There was once a king who happened to obtain tea leaves from a three-thousand-year-old tea tree. The queen used them to make tea eggs. When the king learned of this, he was instantly furious. He slapped the queen and sent her to the cold palace.”Su Ye mentioned a rumor.
"Why?" King Han did not understand and blurted out.
"Can Herbal Tea Eggs be cooked with such low-grade tea leaves?”Su Ye said indifferently.
King Han was enlightened. So that was how it was!
The Herbal Tea Egg was such a high-grade delicacy and spirit herb. How could the tea leaves of a mere three-thousand-year-old tea tree match it?
"The Herbal Tea Egg has the effects of refreshing the mind, eliminating fatigue, prolonging life, and so on. It's simply a treasure in the world.”Su Ye explained the effects of the Herbal Tea Egg.
"Su Ye, you're so thoughtful to bring such an expensive Herbal Tea Egg to show your respect to me.”King Han laughed.
His mind was filled with the Herbal Tea Eggs and he wanted to try them.
He had to get the Herbal Tea Egg.
"Your Majesty, my Herbal Tea Egg is a commodity. I can't give it to you for free.”Su Ye smiled and said.
