2198 Magical Dinner Party 3
Huang Xie Doctor's methods were not made. The herbal tea he prepared was far more effective than ordinary herbal teas in ordinary places in Minyue. Even old patients with constipation who had been in the Countess for several years could have three bowls of effect, let alone strong people like Montauban.
As soon as the herbal tea shook with ice was in her stomach, the magical effects of various herbs began to be combined with civil and military force and fist. Montauban felt a few cool air rushing back and forth in his stomach.
Especially the nameless fire in my heart, it seemed as if it was poured out by a bucket of ice water. Apart from the remaining little white smoke, there was no open fire.
Montauban has not felt this kind of heart-warming feeling for a long time. Since the situation with Prussia deteriorated, these emperors' trusted generals have not had a good life.
They not only had to undertake busy military affairs, but also had to bear the emperor's endless anger. The older Napoleon III, the harder it was to understand. There were not many of these veterans in the empire who were not scolded.
In addition, another Chinese appeared in the East and had been against the empire, and even dared to swagger through the market from France's noses and came to London to visit.
You can imagine how high the anger in the emperor was, and the master was humiliating his ministers and worries! Montauban didn’t understand this truth. His glory and wealth were placed on Napoleon III. For his own wealth, he had to rush to the forefront.
Don’t forget what your title is, Duke of Baliqiao! Even if he rushes to this title, he must be the pioneer in dealing with the Chinese. This time Xiao Letian came to Europe, so this is why he ordered his generals.
Montauban has not eaten well these days and is not good at sleeping well. He is thinking about how to disrupt Xiao Letian's diplomatic visit. Of course, the best result is to let him die in Europe directly.
But the Chinese people were far from the Qing Dynasty he had dealt with before. Xiao Letian's plan was extremely careful, and even the traps in the Suez Canal could not trap him.
Yesterday, Montauban rolled up his sleeves and went on the battle himself, but he didn't expect Xiao Letian's counterattack was so sharp. He still felt a little hot when he slapped him in the face.
I never expected that the anger aroused by the Chinese would eventually fade away with this magical bowl of herbal tea from the East.
Montubon simply ignored Jonas's teasing gaze, and did not look at him turning his head and snapping his fingers at the servant beside him, then pointed to the colorful porcelain cover bowl in front of him, and signaled another bowl.
Yonas smiled at the time, "Haha, this kind of oriental ghost thing seems to be quite right? Tell me what model of steam engine in your belly is, and you are not angry at all?"
Since Montauban was able to be this envoy, it means that he was thick-skinned enough. He did not answer Jonas's joke and directly cooked two bowls of herbal tea.
"This is just relying on the coolness of some ice cubes to make people cool down! I usually don't drink this kind of thing. If it weren't for the scorching heat, how could I have praised him!"
Jonas was helpless about Montauban's cheeky skin. "Since herbal tea can't catch your eyes, then try these oriental snacks... The banquet will take some time, don't starve you!"
After drinking three bowls of herbal tea, Montauban felt a little hungry when he was angry. In front of him was the rose-shaped ice-skin mooncake. No one expected that he was an expert. He came into the hand of the maid and asked for a pair of silver-inlaid ebony chopsticks.
The Europeans present did not expect that the duke would use chopsticks to look at him curiously. They saw Montauban skillfully picking up an ice-skin mooncake with chopsticks, and steadily taking a bite.
A familiar smell emerged from the depths of memory. He had received a banquet from Prince Gong in the capital of the Qing Empire. It was all after the signing of the treaty. At that time, there were a few appetizing snacks.
Although it is not like this, the taste is very familiar and very close!
The cool and smooth ice skin is filled with rich and sweet fillings. This taste cannot be eaten in Europe, and even the French chef does not have such skills.
Jonas looked at Montubon's expression of enjoyment and sneered, "Your food is so thick that you can actually eat the expression of enjoyment. It seems that your life is not very satisfactory, Duke?"
"Can't you afford a salary by respecting His Majesty the Emperor?"
Montauban ate two ice-skin mooncakes and a crystal shrimp dumpling in a row, then put down his chopsticks and took a sip of herbal tea with satisfaction. At this time, no matter how thick-skinned he was, he was embarrassed to attack Master Su Dian's skills.
"Well, that's it! I have to admit that Chinese people are still a little talented in making these small things!"
"But what can we do? China's decline is because they are too impractical. So many smart people don't think about how to make a prosperous country. They think every day that if they make such delicate and useless food, they will be simply unambitious!"
"Look at this little rabbit and fish, so beautifully made, how much time and energy should be wasted? The Chinese have spent time on this, and it is no wonder they were conquered by the Empire of Sun-Don't Setting and our French Empire!"
"That's all about the side dishes. The real big dishes may not be very delicious. I advise everyone not to have too high expectations!"
Jonas looked at the arrogant Montauban, then looked at Ivan, who was eating like a pig beside him, and sighed helplessly.
"My God! You can find a reason to spray this? I really admire you... How did your brain grow? You can spray it to govern the country? It seems that your French food is not cumbersome or wasteful!"
"No, no, no..." Montauban shook his finger, "They are incomparable to our noble France. We have not been defeated by anyone. We are the second most powerful country except the Empire of Sun-Don't Set. Please do not compare the declining China with us. This is a humiliation for us!"
"If you say this again, I will raise a diplomatic protest!"
You can't reason with the person who is trying to make trouble. Jonas turned his head and started chatting with other acquaintances, and was no longer too lazy to pay attention to this annoying guy.
Seeing that his opponent retreated, Montauban leaned comfortably on the back of the chair with a sense of pride of the winner, turned his head to look at the Envoy Ivan beside him, with a hint of contempt in his eyes.
Is this a pig? In just a while, I ate all the shrimp dumplings, half a plate of Yunchi cake was eliminated, and four ice-skin mooncakes were eaten...
"Eat less..." Montubon stepped on him hard under the table. "I knew how to eat. I just asked someone to run the money, why didn't you say a word!"
"Come on, let's see what kind of play Xiao Letian is going to sing today!"
Ivan Yi reluctantly put down the knife and fork. "Sorry, it's too hot today. We Russians can't adapt to such weather at all. Today, I ate two small breads during the day, and I had no appetite at all..."
"After the bowl of weird herbal tea was just now, I suddenly became hungry for some reason. It was so rude, it was really rude!"
Chapter completed!
