On the morning of New Year's Eve, Emperor Qianlong, his queen and his concubines had breakfast at the China Palace. This kind of breakfast usually includes yellow rice, cakes and rice cakes. There are as many as ten or twenty kinds, but this is not a formal New Year's Eve dinner. The real New Year's Eve reunion dinner will be held at the appropriate time (4 pm) on the 30th. At noon on New Year's Eve 12, the table was set for the reunion dinner, and cold dishes and snacks were served. Dinner is usually held in Baohe Hall or Gan Qing Palace. When dining, Emperor Qianlong himself had a table, which was a "Golden Dragon Banquet Table", surrounded by gold embroidered tables. Between the banquet and the emperor's "throne", there was a "long table". All the dishes were put on the banquet, and the emperor took them to the long table when eating. According to the food archives of Qing Palace, the New Year's Eve dinner of Emperor Qianlong was mainly Manchu traditional food and Manchu-style dishes. The amount of materials used for the banquet of Emperor Qianlong at the 49th New Year's Eve is: 65kg pork, fat duck 1 piece, 3 vegetable ducks, 3 fat chickens, 7 vegetable chickens, 3 pork elbows, 2 pork bellies, 8 lower abdomen, and meals1piece. Another 5 kg of 4 Liang white flour, 6 Liang white sugar and so on are used to make snacks. Most of these materials are produced in the northeast, the birthplace of Manchu royal family, and the processing and production reflect the unique style and customs of Manchu. The dishes on the banquet table of Emperor Qianlong were divided into eight ways from the outside to the inside. There are 63 kinds of meat, vegetables, sweet and salty snacks, cold meals and hot meals, as well as two pairs of carved fruit boxes, four kinds of fruits and pasta such as Su Gao and Paul. The position of various meals on the dining table and the distance between them also have size requirements. The so-called "abalone snail" is not the abalone and conch eaten at today's banquet. The Qing emperor seldom ate seafood, occasionally ate fish, and only ate whitebait and sturgeon in Songhua River. The abalone here is a snack made of dried seafood ground into powder. In addition to the big dishes of the New Year's Eve, there are eight kinds of fruit bells, with snacks such as milk, snacks, stove dishes, Albanha, duck buns, rice noodle snacks and so on. Among them, "Albanha" is a Manchu fried pasta, which has four kinds of northern and southern dishes. According to the rules of the imperial palace in the Qing Dynasty, all concubines have their own dietary standards, and they usually have separate groups. But on New Year's Eve, concubines were also lucky enough to have dinner with the emperor. In addition to the emperor's family, there are six tables to accompany guests, each table has 24 hot and cold dishes, which is much less than the emperor himself, and the bowls for holding dishes are also reduced to porcelain bowls. After everything was ready, with the drums, Emperor Qianlong and his concubines took their seats. The eunuchs gave dried dragon soup first. Soup and rice are packaged in pairs, which means that the two boxes are integrated, which means that they are auspicious in pairs. The emperor's right box is two pairs, and the left box is a product of bird's nest, red and white duck loin hot rice and japonica rice dry rice. The right box is a product of bird's nest duck kidney soup and a product of duck bean curd soup. Then the eunuchs sent soup to the concubines, although it was also in boxes, but the quantity was halved, and each person had a pair, with a product of japonica rice and a product of goat egg powder soup. And there are rules, send one according to the level, and then send the second one. After the soup was used up, the music stopped and the party began. The so-called banquet is to transfer all kinds of food and furnishings at the banquet (except vases, chopsticks and fruit boxes) from the emperor's table to the waiter's table, which means that the whole family can enjoy it together. After the banquet, there will be a banquet. The emperor's dining table is divided into five ways, with 40 items in total, and the empresses' dining table has 15 items. The emperor drank the first glass of wine in the music of Dansheng Dadong, and the empresses drank the wine one by one. After drinking the fruit tea, the queens sat down, the emperor left, the music of blessing played and the family dinner ended. After the New Year's Eve, Emperor Qianlong ordered that all the meals he had eaten, even plates, bowls, dishes, spoons and chopsticks, should be given to the ministers, princes and county kings around him. Later, Emperor Qianlong watched the "Dragon Dance" with everyone. As the most Manchu-style program, Qinglong Dance has always been a reserved program at the annual banquet of Emperor Qianlong. Although the New Year's Eve dinner of Emperor Qianlong in Qing Dynasty showed many feudal etiquette systems, it was generally more festive, auspicious and casual. Because Gan was the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, like the common people, the Chinese New Year, including eating New Year's Eve dinner, was festive and auspicious. As for ostentation and extravagance, style, cost, etc. Gan Long's New Year's Eve dinner, of course, is unique.
