First of all, Cixi's identity is unusual. After Cixi came to Datong, the local magistrate Qi Futian. I just want to treat Cixi well. So, I found a well-known local restaurant, Phoenix House, to discuss how to arrange a banquet for Cixi. At that time, the most famous dish in Phoenix House was Phoenix Pawo, and the raw materials were all local chickens. To put it bluntly, its ingredients are very common. As Cixi, how noble she is. How can she eat what ordinary people eat? So in order to show the noble status of Cixi, I told the magistrate that this chicken was raised with precious medicinal materials such as ginseng antler and cordyceps sinensis. So the chicken sold for 1000 silver, and the magistrate reluctantly ordered five such chickens.
Secondly, it was because Qi Futian, the magistrate at that time, always freeloaded in the Phoenix Building. For such officials, the boss of the Phoenix family was helpless, so he took this opportunity to blackmail them severely. Raise the price of ordinary chicken, but as a magistrate, I can only reluctantly give the boss of Fengfu 5000 taels of silver to order this famous dish. ?
Cixi ate this dish very well and was very satisfied. The original name of this dish is Feng Pawo, and later it was changed to "Sleeping Snow golden phoenix".
