Yelu Hongji thought that Yelu Qijin asked this because he was worried that Yang Huairen's personality was too flamboyant and not easy to accept, so he helped Yang Huairen defend and said, "There is such a thing, just now, the imperial grandson sent someone from the prince's mansion into the palace to spread the word, which is what he said.

In fact, there are some skills between all walks of life, which is a good thing, and everyone together promotes the growth of each other's skills through this kind of competition, which is very beneficial to the development of all walks of life.

I just heard from the person sent by Taisun that Yang Huairen's behavior was a little too arrogant, and he also made a few banners, and his language and attitude were very arrogant, and he didn't look at his peers in Zhongjing City at all.

But you don't have to care, think about this matter in reverse, Yang Huairen's uninhibited personality shows that he has real skills, if he doesn't have the ability, where do you dare to act and speak so high-profile? ”

When Yelu Hongji said this, he was thinking about another thing, he was scheming, and he also had his own set of standards in the selection of powerful people.

For example, within the Khitans, he promoted his niece or niece to princess by showing his imperial grace, and at the same time used this method to stabilize the close ties between these forces that originally supported him and him.

Then give these new princesses to another group of forces that were originally in a neutral attitude, that is, these forces that may waver in the future in the struggle for the throne will be further drawn into the ranks of supporting their grandsons in the form of marriage.

Externally, it is to give favors to some of the larger tribes in the Liao State, reduce some of their taxes, relax the restrictions on them, and make them grateful to Yelu Hongji, so as to stabilize them.

Of course, in addition to not allowing these tribes within the Liao State to cause chaos, some foreign countries must also be stabilized, and they must not benefit from the possible civil strife in the Liao State.

Some small countries such as Goryeo, Yelu Hongji is actually not very worried, he is most worried about the Song Dynasty.

Although the Song Dynasty looked weak, if there was civil strife in Liao, it was hard to say that the emperor of the Song Dynasty would not think that this was a great opportunity to recover the land of Yanyun.

Therefore, Yelu Hongji wanted to find a spokesperson in the Song Dynasty who could stabilize the emperor of the Song Dynasty. Originally, there was a King Pu who had always been friendly with the Liao State, but later this person was demoted to the border.

And when King Pu was ousted from power, it was Yang Huairen who played a key role. Later, after Yelu Hongji heard about some things about Yang Huairen, he felt that this person was knowledgeable and capable, and he didn't care much about the political affairs of the Song Dynasty, but he was very interested in making money and beauties, so he decided to win him over.

Yelu Hongji wooed Yang Huairen, and another important point is because Yang Huairen is called the county prince in his eyes, but he is actually more like a greedy businessman.

Since he is a businessman, it is better to say, everyone sits down to talk about a deal, Yelu Hongji feels that he can satisfy Yang Huairen's YU hope for making money and beautiful women, and getting some of the things he wants from Yang Huairen seems to be very acceptable to both parties.

And Yang Huairen is young and frivolous, in the eyes of Yelu Hongji, it is also a flaw in his character, the more such a person, in fact, the easier it is to manipulate, you give him what he wants, meet his inner needs, and let him help you do things.

Yelu Hongji was pondering, and the ghost sister asked, "What ......about it?" The result? ”

Empress Xiao smiled, "You haven't married him yet, so you're so worried about him?" ”

The ghost sister didn't have to pretend deliberately, as if she had a worried and concerned mood towards Yang Huairen in her heart, her face suddenly became red, and in Yelu Hongji's eyes, it made his original worry no longer exist, so he put his mind at ease.

"What about the result......"

Yelu Hongji deliberately sold a pass, and when Yelu looked at him with a big eye and waited for him to continue, he smiled and said slowly, "He won, and he won to convince everyone present."

He opened the ring, and I heard that no one really came on stage to challenge him at first, perhaps because he was frightened by his name as a kitchen god.

Later, the two celebrity chefs of Weiyuan Building, the largest in Zhongjing, couldn't stand it, so they came to the stage one after the other to challenge, and the apprentices were quickly defeated, but the master went up again and still lost to Yang Huairen.

I didn't see it with my own eyes, and when I heard what the imperial grandson sent to report back, I really didn't believe it, and he said that Yang Huairen first used a carving knife to make a picture of a grassland girl shepherding sheep on a radish and defeated the second chef of Weiyuan Building.

Then he tried to cut tofu with the master of the second chef, that is, the chef of Weiyuan Building, and won the master again.

Do you believe it or not? Yang Huairen can paint on radishes, and he can also cut a piece of tofu into a bunch of thin strips, hehe......"

"Huh?"

Empress Xiao was surprised, "It's okay to paint on the radish, but you can cut the tofu into shreds, how do you do that?" That tofu is so soft and tender, it will break when touched, cut with a knife, how to cut into shreds? I'm afraid the imperial chef in our palace can't do it, right? ”

Yelu Hongji said, "That's right, I didn't believe it at first, wondering if the imperial grandson was wrong?" But this is not over, Yang Huairen finished cutting the tofu shreds and carved a flower with tofu.

Listening to his description, what he carved out was a tofu ball, and then he poured water on the tofu ball, and the tofu ball suddenly opened like a flower, and I began to wonder in my heart, let the tofu bloom, how did he do it, hehe......"

Sister Ghost was happy and annoyed in her heart, and when she heard that Yang Huairen had won, she had some words of joy in her heart, but she remembered that he was uneasy to be his Song envoy, and he wanted to be in the limelight and make enemies, and she was a little annoyed that he was too nonsense.

As for Yang Huairen's cooking skills, Sister Ghost actually doesn't care much, whether he can make the tofu bloom or not, even if the tofu bears fruit, she doesn't care.

Yelu Hongji saw that Yelu Qiqijin's expression was complicated, and suddenly remembered another thing, so he comforted, "Qiqijin, my uncle asked you to marry a county prince of the Song Dynasty, and I really wronged you, you must know that Yang Huairen already had two wives and concubines in the Song Dynasty, and I heard that ...... He had recently taken in two more concubines. ”

Empress Xiao knew what Yelu Hongji was thinking, so she helped, "It is normal for capable people to have three wives and four concubines, and if you marry into their Yang family, you don't have to worry about your status."

His original wives and concubines were just some folk girls, but you were the princess of Anguo of Liao, and none of them dared to despise you when you arrived at the Yang family. ”

Sister Ghost actually knew that Yang Huairen already had four wives and concubines, and she didn't think about things so far away, so she replied according to Yelu Hongji's meaning, "Qi Xue Jin doesn't mind, and Qi Xue Jin is sure, if he marries Yang Huairen in the future, he will definitely be able to control him!" ”
