Chapter 1337 Really Moved
Blink, rub your eyes and look again.
No, there should be nothing wrong with your eyes, right?
This is clearly a normal braised carp! It is exactly the same as what they eat every day.
Prince Arnold obviously thought so too. His face lit up with joy, and his eyes became brighter. He pointed at the braised carp and sneered, "Sir Shao, this is not the live braised carp we want, right? What we want is--"
He suddenly opened his eyes wide and froze.
Because the carp moved!
Then, it moved twice more, very obviously!
Everyone at the scene saw it clearly, and immediately there was a low gasp and exclamation.
“It’s moving! It’s really moving!”
"Am I seeing this right? This—"
"It's really alive! A live braised carp!"
"How is this possible!?"
Prince Arnold's face changed drastically, and he almost jumped up in fear. Monster, monster!
He stared at Shao Yunduan fiercely, confused and uncertain.
"H-How did you do it?"
Shao Yunduan smiled slightly: "Our chef knows this best. If the prince is interested, you can discuss it with our chef tomorrow."
A low chuckle sounded in the banquet hall.
Prince Arnold snorted and glanced at Shao Yunduan coldly. He felt so depressed for no reason that he was almost suffocated to death.
He is a prince, why is he communicating with a shitty chef? What a joke! This young Lord Shao is deliberately insulting him! Does he think he is stupid and can't hear it?
Therefore, these scholars in the Qin Dynasty are the most hateful. They rely on their extensive knowledge and have so many schemes in their heads that they will bully others without making any noise when they get the chance.
Although there is no point in arguing, I still feel very unhappy.
Shao Yunduan asked again: "Prince, don't you want to try it?"
Prince Arnold's face became even gloomier.
Taste it? How dare he taste it? This is so weird! Who knows what the Qin people did to this? What if something goes wrong after tasting it?
He would not joke about his own life.
"No need!" Prince Arnold glanced at the eunuch serving the banquet and said, "Take this dish away!"
The young eunuch bowed and was about to take the dish away, but Deputy Envoy Das stopped him and said with a smile: "This is weird, Prince, I want to try it and see for myself."
Prince Arnold glanced at him, nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, you try it."
With him around, Daqin wouldn't dare to play any tricks. If anything unexpected happened to Deputy Envoy Das, he wouldn't give up.
The young eunuch immediately brought the dish to Deputy Envoy Das's table.
Deputy Envoy Das tried to remain calm, picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of fish and put it into his mouth.
After chewing, he was stunned.
The fish was very tasty and tender, cooked rather than raw.
This is strange!
At this moment, the "live" braised carp jumped again, which scared Deputy Envoy Das so much that he almost choked on the fish in his mouth.
But he soon discovered the clue and shouted in surprise and joy: "This is - Great, you put a live loach in the fish's stomach! I was wondering why the fish was still moving even though it was already cooked! So this is what happened!"
Deputy Envoy Dasi seemed to have caught Da Qin's weakness, and sneered complacently: "I was talking about a live braised carp, is this considered a lie? Well, you Da Qin are really insidious, teasing us like this! I wonder how the prince will give us an explanation for this matter!"
Prince Arnold was also surprised, "Oh, so that's how it is!"
