Li Er naturally saw all the reactions of the ministers.

However, he did not explain much, but nodded slightly to Zhang Ananda.

Zhang Ananda understood and immediately took two steps forward and said loudly, "Please take your seats, everyone. The banquet will begin shortly."

After saying that, he bowed and retreated to Li Er's side.

Immediately afterwards, teams of palace eunuchs came in carrying trays.

When Zhou Yu saw what was on the tray, he was obviously stunned.

I thought that what was delivered were all prepared meals, but I didn't expect that they were all various meats and dried vegetables.

Actually, if you think about it, during these coldest days of winter, not only in the Tang Dynasty, but even in the 1970s and 1980s, there were no decent vegetables.

Only after the development of greenhouse technology and transportation did a variety of vegetables become available for consumption in winter.

For this palace banquet, Li Er was able to get dried vegetables to entertain a group of officials, so the standard should have been quite high.

And judging from the dishes, it should be the hot pot from the Tang Dynasty.

Although it is not a delicacy, it is quite suitable for the current weather.

Compared to cold soup and cold meat, hot pot is at least warm.

This way, those unlucky guys outside won’t get frozen to death.

"Little Nianjun, I want some scallions, hurry up and cook some for me~"

Seeing all kinds of meat on the table, the little kid immediately became excited.

You know, whether it is hot pot or mutton hot pot, they are the little girl's favorite.

I just wandered around the palace for a long time and now I feel a little hungry.

Hearing the little girl's urging, Zhou Yu first rubbed her little head to comfort her, and then checked the bottom of the pot.

When he saw the hot pot base in the pot, his expression suddenly became strange.

Li Er is really good at having fun. He actually invited a group of officials to eat hot pot at the palace banquet.

Although there is a lot of meat on the table, the vegetables are really hard to describe.

These dried vegetables are actually similar to the fallen leaves on the ground.

If it wasn't placed so clearly on the table, it would definitely be mistaken for dead grass.

After picking at it for a long time, Zhou Yu still felt it was a little hard to swallow. After a moment of thought, he whispered to the little boy, "Wait a moment, Mingdai. I'll go get some side dishes."

"Hmm~ I want seven garland chrysanthemums and lettuce~"

The little kid, who is used to eating all kinds of green vegetables, naturally doesn't like those dried vegetables.

When he heard that Zhou Yu was going back to get the food, he immediately told them what dishes he wanted to eat.

"Okay, I know what you like to eat, wait for me to come back."

After saying that, he asked Li Lizhi to take care of the little kid, and he immediately walked towards the screen not far away.

Li Er, sitting on the dragon throne, was originally waiting for the officials below to compliment him.

After all, except for those who followed the last autumn hunt, other officials had never seen such a delicacy as hot pot.

Unexpectedly, the water here had not yet completely boiled, and Zhou Yu was about to leave. He quickly asked Zhang Ananda to stop him.

"Boy, the banquet has just begun, where are you going?"

"Mingda wants to eat chrysanthemum and lettuce. I'll go back and get some."

Zhou Yu's answer was so matter-of-fact that Li Er almost vomited blood. "Kid, have you ever thought that if everyone else is eating dried vegetables and you're the only one eating greens in the middle of winter, wouldn't people think you're a freak?"

"Couldn't it be an immortal?"

After hearing Li Er's reminder, Zhou Yu realized the problem.

However, seeing Lao Deng's reaction, he immediately responded in a teasing tone.

Hearing Zhou Yu say this, Li Er curled his lips at first, and then said in a light tone: "If you still want to walk in the Tang Dynasty, don't deify yourself.

Once those aristocratic families take it seriously, they will definitely investigate the secret.

By then, even if you are very capable, you won't be able to guarantee 100% safety."

Zhou Yu: ...

I just wanted to eat some vegetables, why did it become a personal threat?

All right!

Judging from the nature of those aristocratic families, they might really do something extremely cruel.

After all, even Qin Shi Huang could not resist the temptation of immortality, let alone those ordinary people in high positions!

It seems that I need to be more careful about my behavior in the future.

It is true that I can travel through time at any time, but I am not indestructible and immortal.

If I get ambushed by those old bastards, my life will be over.

As soon as he thought of this, he couldn't help but shudder.

Turning his head to look at the little kid, he decisively turned around and walked towards his seat.

Damn it, better be careful.

Vegetables can be eaten at any time, so one or two meals a day doesn’t matter.

Seeing him turn around and come back again, the little kid immediately raised his head with curiosity.

Before she could even ask, Zhou Yu leaned close to her ear and said, "Your father said there's a banquet going on right now, so it's better not to run around."

After saying that, he picked up the chopped mutton and put it into the copper pot in front of him.

The little boy is still young, and there is no need to let him know about the situations that Li Er mentioned just now.

As the hot pot gradually boils, the aroma of the hot pot base spreads.

Those who have participated in the autumn hunt with Li Er naturally know the taste of hot pot base.

People like Cheng Yaojin, Yuchi Gong and others couldn't wait to eat the mutton.

Those who saw the hot pot base for the first time all leaned their heads over to smell the aroma in the pot.

This tempting aroma makes people drool before even tasting it.
