Gao Yao naturally had no idea what Lin Lang was thinking. He carefully served a bowl of braised pork and respectfully handed it to Lin Lang.
"Please taste it, Master Imperial Master."
Lin Lang nodded, took a casual bite, and praised: "Not bad, the fat and lean meat are well-balanced, soft and tender in the mouth, and full of fragrance. It's well made."
Seeing Lin Lang smile, Gao Yao bravely asked, "Excuse me, Master Imperial Master, how did you know about braised pork?"
Lin Lang glanced at Gao Yao and said with a smile, "I have already made it so obvious, you should understand."
Gao Yao finally got the answer he wanted and said excitedly, "Master Imperial Master also traveled here from 2010?"
Lin Lang nodded, then shook his head.
"No, Lin is about ten years behind you."
Gao Yao heard this and immediately said, "No matter what, we are all modern people. We should help each other in the Qin Dynasty."
Lin Lang patted Gao Yao's shoulder and said with a smile, "Of course. If you follow me in the palace in the future, you will definitely benefit from it."
Gao Yao was overjoyed, "Thank you very much, Master Imperial Master."
"Haha, just call me brother in private, no need to be so formal." Lin Lang said.
Gao Yao's smile widened. "Okay then. From now on, I'll be following Brother Lin. Please take good care of me."
Although Lin Lang looks younger than him, as long as he can gain power and status in the palace and not be bullied, he would even call him dad, not to mention brother.
Lin Lang smiled and said, "No problem. I'll give you a task now. Once you complete it, I'll have His Majesty issue an order to promote you to Chief Eunuch, the highest-ranking eunuch in the palace."
Gao Yao was overjoyed and patted his chest, saying, "Brother, just tell me what you want. I will go through fire and water for you without hesitation!"
"Um."
Lin Lang casually took out two palm-sized pieces of dragon meat from behind him and said with a smile, "This meat was obtained by chance by Lin. Even if you boil it over high heat for three days and three nights, it won't be cooked.
Tomorrow I will invite His Majesty to dinner here. If you can prepare these two pieces of meat well, I can legitimately promote you."
Gao Yao took the two pieces of dragon meat and pinched them subconsciously. He found that although the meat was soft, it was extremely chewy.
"Brother, you said that this meat won't be cooked even after three days and three nights. Where in the world can there be such meat? Could it be synthetic?" he asked doubtfully.
Lin Lang waved his hand, "You'll know if you try. Go ahead and prepare yourself today. Tomorrow it's up to you."
Gao Yao nodded, "Don't worry, I may not be good at other things, but when it comes to cooking, no one in this world is better than me, Gao Yao!"
…
The next day.
Yu Shu came to Lin Lang with a pale face and a weak body, and bowed obediently.
"Greetings, His Excellency the Imperial Master."
Lin Lang laughed and said, "Why? Do you still want to die this time?"
Yu Shu shuddered and quickly shook her head, "I'm not going to die, I'm not going to die. Thank you, Imperial Master, for showing mercy."
She thought she was not afraid of death, but after what happened yesterday, she realized that she was just an ordinary woman and could not be as fearless as the protagonist in the story.
She wanted to survive, she wanted revenge, she wanted to leave this cage and pursue the freedom she imagined.
Before that, I can only obey this hateful national teacher.
Seeing Yu Shu's strange expression, Lin Lang could probably guess what she was thinking.
It’s been a long time since I was the big devil. This time, I’ll try to see if Yu Shu’s aura as the protagonist is solid!
Thinking of this, he smiled and said, "No need to thank me. I have invited the First Emperor to a banquet here today. Just be careful and serve him well."
Yu Shu bowed respectfully and said, "Yes."
Lin Lang nodded, then his expression changed. He looked outside the palace and said with a smile, "Your Majesty has arrived."
Just as he finished speaking, the old eunuch's loud voice suddenly came from outside the hall.
"Your Majesty has arrived."
Yu Shu was startled. She looked at Lin Lang, wondering, "How did he know?"
Lin Lang glanced at Yu Shu and said, "What are you standing there for? Hurry up and welcome His Majesty!"
Yu Shu came to her senses and quickly stepped aside and knelt on the ground.
At this time, Ying Zheng came quickly from outside the hall, laughing loudly.
"How come the Imperial Master thought of inviting me here? I am truly honored." Ying Zheng laughed.
Lin Lang did not stand up, but simply extended his hand and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, please sit down."
Ying Zheng bowed slightly and said with a smile, "Thank you, Imperial Master."
Yu Shu, who was standing by, was shocked when she saw this. Why was the Emperor of Qin so respectful? Could this guy really be an immortal?
"Yu Shu, why don't you serve tea quickly!" Lin Lang said.
Yu Shu came to her senses and quickly walked to Ying Zheng's side and poured the Coke in the teacup into his cup.
Seeing such a beauty as Yu Shu, Ying Zheng couldn't help but stroke his beard and said with a smile: "I heard that General Meng Tian gave the Imperial Master a beauty. I think it must be this woman."
Lin Lang said casually, "Yes, after a lesson, he's quite obedient."
Seeing Yu Shu's pale face and weak body, Ying Zheng couldn't help but think of something wrong. He winked at Lin Lang.
"The Imperial Master is indeed an immortal, he has excellent physical strength. I believe that ordinary mortal women cannot bear the blessing of the Imperial Master."
Lin Lang couldn't help but roll his eyes when he saw Ying Zheng like this.
"Your Majesty, please pay attention to your image."
Ying Zheng laughed heartily, "Well, I won't say any more. Let's have some tea."
He took a sip of the Coke in the teacup and suddenly praised: "Master, what is this? It's so strange."
Lin Lang waved his hand. "These are things from the fairyland. I'll give you a few bottles in a few days."
Ying Zheng was overjoyed, "Thank you very much, Imperial Master."
"You're welcome. It's almost time. Xiao Shunzi, notify Gao Yao and ask him to serve the food!" Lin Lang said to the young eunuch.
"promise."
"Xuan Gaoyao!" the young eunuch shouted loudly.
Suddenly, Gao Yao led two young eunuchs and came quickly with a tray covered, and knelt on the ground.
"I, Gao, would like to pay my respects to His Majesty and the Imperial Preceptor."
Ying Zheng glanced at Lin Lang and saw that Lin Lang didn't say anything, so he raised his hand and said, "Get up."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Gao Yao stood up and placed the two trays in front of Lin Lang and Ying Zheng respectively.
The food on the tray was covered by two gorgeous round bowls, which was very mysterious.
Lin Lang smiled at Ying Zheng and said, "Your Majesty, guess what's on this plate."
Ying Zheng asked curiously, "What the Imperial Master invited me to eat must not be something from this world. I really can't guess."
Lin Lang looked at Gao Yao and said, "Open it, and then tell His Majesty about it."
"promise."
Gao Yao slowly opened the round bowl and saw a palm-sized piece of meat inside. The meat was browned, with a dish of sauce next to it and knives and forks on both sides. Ying Zheng had never seen anything like this before.
"This is..." Ying Zheng asked in confusion.
Can such a small piece fill you up?
Gao Yao smiled and said, "This is a steak I created myself. Because this meat is difficult to cook, I simply cook it until it's medium-rare and then pair it with my own unique sauce. The taste is so delicious that it's hard to describe."
Ying Zheng hesitated and said, "It's only medium-rare. Would it be inappropriate for me to eat it?"
Lin Lang smiled and said, "Your Majesty, rest assured. Do you know what kind of meat this is?"
