Zhu Di was extremely excited.
That's great. Father didn't listen to that kid. We're safe!
For the past two days, the huge rock that had been pressing down on his chest finally fell to the ground.
At this moment, Zhu Biao walked in and called them to eat.
They had hotpot for lunch.
Hotpot was not something new in this era.
As early as the Three Kingdoms period, the people of the various countries had invented a kind of bronze tripod that was different from the previous generation to eat.
There was a charcoal plate under this bronze cauldron that could cook food while eating.
After that, for more than a thousand years, the people of China had been studying hotpot.
The Tang Dynasty poet Bai Juyi's poem,"Ask Liu Nineteen," described the scene of eating a small hotpot.
However, at that time, hotpot was still exclusive to high-ranking officials and nobles.
By the Song Dynasty, the eating method of hotpot had already spread to ordinary people.
Most restaurants would provide hotpot.
During the Yuan Dynasty, people discovered that using hotpot to cook beef and mutton had a different taste. This method of eating spread widely among the Mongolian nobles and spread to the world.
Emperor Zhu's family was sick of eating delicacies and was no stranger to hotpot.
As such, they didn't have much expectations for the hotpot Zhang Che mentioned.
However, when he sat down at the table, Old Zhu realized that he did not recognize any of the things on the table!
First of all, the pot looked very strange.
A pot made of brass with a hollow in the middle for charcoal.
It was very stable and looked quite interesting.
The dishes were also very interesting. The beef and mutton were all cut into thin slices. It was obvious that a lot of thought had been put into it.
There was some dipping sauce in each bowl. It smelled like it was made from sesame seeds. It was very fragrant.
"This is the way I thought of myself. Try it!”
After sitting down, Zhang Che said to everyone smugly,"
Zhang Che was quite satisfied with the era he had transmigrated to.
If God had thrown him back to the Qin Dynasty or even earlier.
Not to mention life safety, even the basic desire for food could not be satisfied.
It couldn't be helped. As time passed, the material conditions became more and more difficult.
Even now, Zhang Che was still a little dissatisfied.
Chili was a necessary seasoning for hotpot.
There was none in this era.
There was still a hundred years before the chilies were introduced to Great Ming!
However, even so…
Zhang Che's hotpot cooking method also made Lao Zhu and the others exclaim in satisfaction.
Zhang Che wasn't in a hurry to pick up his chopsticks. Instead, he picked up some food for Empress Ma first.
"Mother, eat this mutton. I cut it carefully, so it's easier for the meat to taste!”
"Mother, this beef is good stuff. Two days ago, Old Man Sun's cattle fell to death in the village. I specially bought it at a high price!”
"This Niu Baiye is also a good thing. Ordinary people don't know about it. Mother, try it!”
Zhang Che's solicitous attitude made Old Zhu feel jealous.
"Che 'er, you eat by yourself. Don't only care about your mother!”
Empress Ma was overjoyed by Zhang Che's coaxing. She turned around and picked up some food for him.
Instantly, the other three people at the table felt even worse.
In the land of the Xia Dynasty, discussing matters at the dinner table had almost become a culture.
Only the rich and powerful would pay attention to not talking while eating and sleeping.
Zhang Che had always felt that his family was just an ordinary family, and didn't need to follow those stinky rules.
After the dishes were over, Zhang Che started chatting.
"Father, about the matter I told you before, you should really consider it seriously. As long as he defected to the King of Yan, Zhu Di, he would at least be able to follow the dragon in the future. Such an opportunity might not come by once in a lifetime!”
As soon as he said this, the other people at the table had strange expressions.
Zhu Di, in particular, looked at Zhang Che helplessly.
Why aren't you done yet?
Although he was extremely unhappy, Zhu Di did not dare to make a sound.
On the contrary, it was Lao Zhu who took over Zhang Che's words.
"You always say that the King of Yan is quite capable and has the image of a true dragon. What do you think will happen after Zhu Di becomes the emperor? Can he be stronger than Crown Prince Zhu Biao?" Old Zhu asked with great interest.
Instantly, Zhu Biao and Zhu Di, including Empress Ma, stopped eating.
To be honest, it was not appropriate for Old Zhu to ask this question in front of Zhu Biao and Zhu Di.
Those who knew clearly knew that he was testing Zhang Che.
However, if Zhu Di was a person who didn't know what was going on, he might have had thoughts that he shouldn't have because of Old Zhu's words.
Empress Ma looked worriedly at Zhu Biao and Zhu Di. Fortunately, both of them looked normal.
Zhu Biao had never thought that his brothers could threaten his position, nor did he think that his brothers would have such thoughts.
After Zhu Di and Old Zhu talked, he was completely relieved. Now, he felt that he had nothing to fear.
Unfortunately, what happened next gave Zhu Di a head-on blow.
Let him know what it meant to be happy too early!
The two of them looked at Zhang Che, clearly curious about what he would say.
Zhang Che didn't notice the others 'reactions at all.
He smiled and said,"In my opinion, Zhu Di's ability to govern the country is second only to His Majesty Hongwu!"”
Crack!
The chopsticks in Zhu Di's hand fell.
