Chapter 224: Spicy
Fang Xuanling bowed down and replied: "What Your Majesty said is very good, you should not be anxious about Songtsen Gampo's national letter, if you are in a hurry to start a war with the Tang Dynasty, it is very likely that your previous efforts will be in vain." ”
"Next year's imperial examination, your Zhongshu Province will hand over the charter after it has been arranged." Li Shimin said with a relaxed expression.
"The minister retired." Fang Xuanling walked out of the Manna Palace, and his expression was also a lot more relaxed.
Now His Majesty has a cold, and he will take a three-day break.
During this period, many ministers came to visit, and Li Shimin was in a very good mood these days.
Empress Changsun was also in a good mood, because she discovered a new skill of Li Shimin, as long as Li Shimin went to Jingyang, the problems of the court and the central government would be solved at once.
Yan Liben, the side hall of the Lizheng Palace, is building a warm kang with some craftsmen.
Looking at the drawings, Yan Li could have been sure that this drawing was drawn by Li Zheng.
The only one in the entire Tang Dynasty who can draw drawings like this is Li Zheng.
Although these craftsmen are not as good as Zhang Qi's craftsmanship, they are barely enough.
Of course, the ondol in the palace was a luxurious upgraded version, and Yan Liben simply overturned a wall and rebuilt it.
Even if he has a cold, Li Shimin will do tai chi every morning.
This situation immediately spread throughout the elite circle of Chang'an.
It is a very common thing for the royal family to lead the fashion, for example, what the emperor likes to eat now, and the price of what will immediately rise.
Cheng Yanjin and Qin Qiong were also playing Tai Chi slowly.
Asking Li Junxian, who was standing aside, Cheng Yanjin asked, "Your Majesty really practiced like this." ”
Li Junxian nodded, "It's really like this." ”
Cheng Yanjin was a little impatient with his slow and leisurely Taijiquan, "Second Brother Qin, what kind of tone do you say this slow and clumsy Taijiquan is?" ”
Qin Qiong realized while playing Tai Chi, "I don't understand it either, but Your Majesty must have a reason for practicing like this." ”
Cheng Biting Jin was a little impatient with one move at a time.
Qin Qiong can knock down a whole set of Tai Chi.
Cheng Biting Jin's irritable temperament made him choose to give up halfway through the fight.
After harvesting the thousand guan sent by Empress Changsun, Li Zheng was satisfied.
Li Tai followed Li Zheng and said as he practiced Tai Chi: "You said that this Tai Chi is not a fighting skill, what is the use of you practicing this?" ”
"His Royal Highness King Wei is wrong in saying this, Tai Chi has a state of mind, and of course it also has the effect of strengthening the body." Li Zheng finished finishing work.
Li Tai also stopped moving, "What are we going to eat today?" ”
"Of course it's hot pot." Li Zheng said, "But the taste of hot pot may be a little different today." ”
I picked some small peppers from the greenhouse, which are only about the same length as peanuts and need to be cultivated for a long time.
I picked some of them a little, and it tasted good when I ate one raw.
With a small bowl of chili peppers, Cheng Chumo also came, lit the charcoal fire under the hot pot, and the three of them sat on the warm kang and started another hot pot.
Cheng Chu silently looked at the things floating on the soup and said, "What the hell is this?" ”
"Chili." Li Zheng picked up one with chopsticks and put it in Cheng Chumo's bowl, "Taste? ”
Picking up the chili pepper with some hesitation, Cheng Chumo first glanced at Li Zheng and put it in his mouth.
Biting into his mouth, Cheng Chumo's expression immediately became a little distorted.
"How? The taste is not particularly pungent. ”
After eating the chili pepper, Cheng Chumo poured another mouthful of soup into his mouth, only to find that the soup was also spicy.
I picked up the jar and kept pouring wine into my mouth, and it took a long time before I felt comfortable.
Li Tai was a little stunned on the side, "Chu Mo, are you okay?" ”
Cheng Chu sighed and said, "It's so spicy." ”
Li Zheng smiled and said: "Actually, this is not bad, you have never eaten devil chili." ”
Pour all the greens and lamb into the hot pot.
Li Tai picked up a piece of cooked meat and put it in his mouth to eat, the meat had a spicy taste.
At first, I was a little uncomfortable with eating, but after eating a few bites, I had a posture that I couldn't stop.
Cheng Chumo and Li Tai used chopsticks to look for slices of meat in the turbid soup.
Another pot of mutton in the pot.
The appetite was also stimulated by the spicy taste, and some chili peppers and soup were added.
Li Tai fanned his tongue with his hand while eating, and his expression was painful and enjoyable, which was very exciting.
Finally eating the chili peppers, Li Zheng breathed a sigh of relief, the current chili peppers are all green and not yet fully ripe, and they will taste better when they are fully ripe.
Cheng Chumo didn't know how much mutton he had eaten, so he leaned comfortably against the wall by the ondol, his legs were weakly placed on the ondol, and he looked enjoyable, "Cool!" It's so cool! ”
Li Tai also nodded, "It was very spicy at first, but later I felt that the taste was really wonderful, wonderful." ”
After eating the chili peppers, it didn't seem so cold when I walked outside.
Li Tai left with some chili peppers before leaving.
Li Zheng returned to the village and was busy with the woolen clothes again.
Li Yifu took the account book in his hand and whispered: "Something happened to the county marquis." ”
"What's wrong?"
Li Yifu said in a low voice: "I don't know what's going on recently, suddenly Chang'an came to ban, not allowed to fish in the river, can only fish and catch fish, many households upstream have been scolded by the government, saying that the upstream nets to catch fish downstream people will have no fish to eat." ”
Xu Jingzong also said: "This is a good thing. ”
It's not surprising that ordinary people like to eat fish in winter.
Where do the poor people come from to catch fish with fishing nets, and the fishing also has to be divided into times and seasons.
If you overfish, you will be killed immediately, and there will be fish to eat.
Li Zheng didn't expect Li Shimin to really do this.
Put down the hook and start fishing, and a fish was hooked after a cup of tea.
There were fish in the river again, and Li Zheng's mood was much better.
More than 1,000 wool cotton clothes have been made, and they are first made for the children in the village, then distributed to the people in the village, and finally they are considering whether to sell them.
The second batch of wool was also delivered, and another 100,000 catties of wool were delivered.
It wasn't until the night that the village stopped busy and went back to rest.
Late at night, the village was quiet.
No matter how much money Li Zheng earns, for Li Daxiong, his family is a poor family, and every time he watches a cart of silver cakes delivered to his home, he will smile disdainfully.
Then, in the middle of the night, Li Daxiong would bury all these silver cakes under his yard.
Every time I started construction, I would look around from time to time and listen to the movement with my ears pricked up.
While despising his son for being so able to earn money, Li Daxiong retained a very good habit of saving money.
After burying the silver cake, Li Daxiong looked around again to make sure that no one found him.
And he sealed it up, and returned it to its untouched appearance.
Li Zheng knew that every time the money arrived, Li Daxiong would do it.
Although he said it, every time the silver cake was delivered to his home, he would hide it very actively.
