Recalling the millet porridge he ate in the past few days, as well as the tasteless boiled meat, Li Chengqian's saliva flowed down as he spoke.

The leek box is a very common food, but in terms of taste, it is definitely comparable to big fish and meat.

Seeing Li Chengqian's salivating appearance, Li Yuan was actually a little moved.

Maybe, you can really eat it?

Glancing back at the recital on the case, calculating the time, Li Yuan found that he actually had an afternoon to squander.

Watching singing and dancing, accompanying the concubine is like that, it is better to accompany the little grandson to mess around.

After making up his mind, Li Yuan said, "In that case, I will go with you to the Ministry of Rites to get some." However, let's say in advance that this thing must be tasted by the eunuchs, and if there is a problem, I will not allow you to speak! ”

Li Chengqian patted his chest and said, "No problem! ”

In this way, Li Yuan was successfully abducted and taken out of Taiji Palace by Li Chengqian.

The ancestors and grandsons rode on the shoulder chariots carried by the warriors, and they didn't even bring the eldest grandson Baoqing, so they let Yu Tai and a few palace guards accompany them.

It was the first time Li Chengqian came to the palace, and his previous memories were not very clear because of his relatively young age.

This time, I didn't remember the route at all, and I felt the intricacies of the palace.

It took a while to finally arrive at the Ministry of Rites.

It stands to reason that on weekdays, the Ministry of Rites is a relatively idle department among the six departments of the three provinces, but because of the seriousness of the Ministry of Rites, the officials here are not casual even on weekdays, but discuss issues together in twos and threes, especially to discuss ancient rites.

Drilling the pile of old papers is a stinky problem that has always been a problem for readers. Etiquette is a formal thing, and it's good to have your mind there. But this group of guys is stunned to test the scriptures, and they can't wait to reproduce the etiquette of the Shang and Zhou dynasties.

Thinking that when he became the crown prince in the future, the emperor would be the strongest tool man No. 1, and he would be the strongest tool man No. 2, Li Chengqian suddenly felt hopeless.

Don't be a prince even if you kill labor and capital, how good is it to be an idle prince? Don't worry about state affairs, don't worry about who will rebel, just eat and wait for death. In this world, as long as you don't rebel when you're not idle, being an idle prince is the best job.

The shoulder wheel stopped, and the officials of the Ministry of Rites who were discussing the issue immediately put down their books and ran over to salute the emperor.

As for the little Li Chengqian on the side, he was automatically ignored by them.

Seeing that these officials bent down and bowed their hands, and none of them knelt down, Li Chengqian knew that he had made a mistake in his understanding. The Tang Dynasty, or the early Tang Dynasty, seemed to kneel without having anything to do, even when facing the emperor.

Li Yuan waved his hand and said, "No excuses, I came to harvest a little leeks this time, you should have planted." ”

The long-bearded, extraordinarily serious demeanor of the Ministry of Rites Shangshu said: "Back to Your Majesty, leeks have indeed been planted, I don't know what Your Majesty harvests leeks for?" Recently, it doesn't seem to be necessary to worship the heavens. ”

Li Yuan shook his head: "I want leeks to be used, needless to say, where are the leeks?" Take me to see it. ”

It was only at this time that the officials noticed Li Chengqian, although they didn't know what Li Chengqian wanted leeks for, but the emperor had an order, and they had to obey it.

In this way, Li Chengqian finally saw the leek.

In the atrium of the Ministry of Rites, there is a plot of land on which crops that can be used in ceremonies such as the worship of the heavens. Among them, there are two ridges of leeks.

It's just that only half of these leeks have been harvested, and the new ones are very strong, and some of them are a little small.

Just this little leek, it seems, can only be eaten for one meal!

Seeing Li Chengqian's disappointed look, Li Yuan wondered, "What's wrong?" Isn't it enough? ”

Li Chengqian nodded: "It's indeed a little little, by the way, who is that?" ”

Li Chengqian turned around, found the figure of Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, and arched his hand to follow their example: "Shangshu, I don't know if there are still leek seeds in the Ministry of Rites?" Can the king ask for some? ”

The Ministry of Rites replied with a salute and said, "If you have seeds, there are indeed some of them. Since the king of Zhongshan wants it, the Ministry of Rites can give it. It's just that I don't know what King Zhongshan wants this thing for? ”

If the answer is that it is to eat, I am afraid that it will take some tongue, so Li Chengqian said impatiently: "Don't ask about this, this king is useful." ”

After speaking, Li Chengqian patted Yu Tai and pointed at the leek.

Yu Tai reacted immediately, snatched the knife from an official's hand, and went to the field to cut leeks.

"Stick to the roots, be careful, pull the leek roots out with too much force. They were all cut off, and the leeks grew fast anyway, and it didn't take long for them to grow all again. ”

With Li Chengqian's command, a group of officials of the Ministry of Rites watched as the leeks were swept away. There were only two ridges left of the roots.

It's cruel!

Seeing that Li Chengqian got the leeks, and the Ministry of Rites Shangshu also gave him a small bag of leek seeds, Li Yuan waved his hand, called the strong men who were carrying the shoulders, and pulled Li Chengqian's little hand up.

Straight.... Imperial Dining Room.

For Li Yuan, although he had a whole afternoon to squander, it was rare to have fewer recitals, and he still preferred to finish it in the first half of the night.

Although he is the emperor, he hasn't had a good time doing that for a long time.

The emperor's visit to the imperial dining room can scare the chefs of the imperial dining room half to death. The leading cook quickly came out of the kitchen and fell to his knees.

If you don't kneel in the face of the emperor, it also depends on the person. People like them, who serve in the palace but come from poor backgrounds, are not treated so well. Although no one can say anything if you don't kneel, if you kneel, at least it shows that you are submissive.

Li Yuan glanced at the smoky kitchen and frowned in annoyance.

The gentleman is far away, even if he, the emperor, is messing around, he will not go in, otherwise, there will be a bunch of impeachment notes the next day.

"Cheng Qian, you just go in and get these things, and I just wait outside."

"Okay."

Li Chengqian didn't notice Li Yuan's expression, and asked Yu Tai to call the eldest grandson Baoqing over first, and then instructed the cooks how to pick leeks.

The officials of the Ministry of Rites are still very good at serving crops, although they did not cut leeks to grow, but the growth of leeks is quite good.

The power of a large number of people is great, and after a while, all the leeks were picked and cleaned.

Li Chengqian didn't care much about the smoke-filled imperial dining room, and after entering, he began to instruct the chef to cut leeks, and asked the chef to stuff the various spices he brought into the small mill and grind them into fine powder.

Beating eggs, scrambled eggs, seasoning, noodles, wrapping boxes, branding, with the help of the chef of the imperial dining room, the speed is fast.

Tossing from morning to mid-hour, Li Chengqian finally ate the box of leek eggs with tears in his eyes.

It's hard to come by! For this guy, he has walked around the northwest half of Chang'an, and now the soles of his feet are estimated to be blistered.
