In the early hours of the morning, even the palace was no longer as noisy as before, only the guards patrolling outside walked by from time to time, bringing out a clatter of armor collisions, with the somewhat dilapidated scenery of the side courtyard, the scene was a little indescribably weird for a while.

Li Chengyang and Xiao'er poked their heads out sneakily, and ran to the kitchen after the sound was gone.

Xiao'er asked timidly: "Young master, do you have to come to the kitchen at night, I'm a little afraid" pulled Li Chengyang's sleeve tightly, as if he was afraid that the person in front of him would disappear.

pinched Xiao'er's little hand with his backhand, and said in a low voice: "There is a young master, don't be afraid, what cats and dogs are coming, see the young master will beat them away for you with three punches and two feet, hold my hand, tofu brain, hehe, I've been hungry for a long time."

The confinement has reached the last day, after Li Chengyang's unremitting search, he finally found the materials of tofu brain, soaked the soybeans yesterday, and couldn't help it at night, so he woke up Xiao'er, and the two secretly ran into the kitchen.

This thing has to be made by hand to be delicious, and it is really inconvenient to do it in full view of everyone during the day, and it can only be a little indulgent time in the dead of night.

Entered the kitchen, rolled up his sleeves, fished out the soaked soybeans from the vat, and didn't use any soybean milk machine or anything, just do it, spread the soybeans on the board, put a pot below to connect it, and put a strainer in the middle, pick up another board and start pressing the soybeans.

The soybean milk of Baihuahua flows down, filtered by the strainer, and the soybean milk that falls into the pot is not so turbid, and half a pot of soybeans is almost a pot of soybean milk, after all, the human juicer is not as easy to use as the machine.

Told Xiao'er to cook the soy milk, he picked up the kitchen knife and began to process the ingredients, the marinade of the tofu brain is the finishing touch, so he must come with his own hands, the general tofu brain is seasoned with mushrooms, so that the taste is better and more delicious, but Datang does not have a few kinds of mushrooms, barely made up two kinds of safe to eat, other mushrooms he just knows and does not dare to eat, many modern mushrooms are carefully cultivated, all after detoxification, the current mushrooms God knows if they will be poisonous.

The surprise is that the day before yesterday in the eldest grandson rewarded Xiao'er with the ingredients actually found fungus, and there are some coastal areas dedicated to the palace of sea fish, the sea fish is not important, the important thing is the kelp that comes with the sea fish, maybe the coastal officials are afraid of being accused of disrespecting the royal family, carefully transformed a fishing boat loaded with water, although it is not big, and the water is not much, but it is also complete.

Li Chengyang saw the wilted kelp at a glance, and hid it without saying a word, now this thing that pigs don't eat is a good delicacy, and the monosodium glutamate is extracted from the kelp, which is best used to improve freshness.

Mysteriously took out a piece of Ganoderma lucidum from the corner of the kitchen, which was placed here by Xiao'er in advance, which was given by the eldest grandson to recuperate his body, after all, he was also hit by thirty boards.

I haven't eaten Ganoderma lucidum, but it grows on wood, and people have been eating it for I don't know how many years, and I haven't seen anyone eat it, so let's put it in it as a seasoning, and it is also a kind of mushroom.

There is also sauce, although it is not as hygienic as in the previous life, but the sauce has been recorded since the Han Dynasty.

Xiao'er's boiled soy milk was also opened, and she told her not to add fire, just wait for it to cool down naturally, and praised Xiao'er by the way, after these days of unremitting efforts, this little girl finally gave up her dark cooking career, Li Chengyang changed the tricks every day, where is there time to study other dishes.

I explained the method of marinade again, and let Xiao'er look at it and write it down while doing it again, so I don't have to be so sneaky if I want to eat tofu brain in the future, today I am hungry.

Soon, the marinade came out of the pot, and when I looked at the pot, the tofu brain was hot, but it had solidified, and the whole kitchen was filled with the smell of beans, well, perfect.

He Xiao'er has a bowl for each person, picked up the spoon and gently wiped a piece on the tofu, this time it is the soul of the tofu brain, the tofu brain can not be too big, not too small, not too thick, this is all craftsmanship, a slow sense of ritual.

After pouring the marinade, this is completely done, and a bowl was given to Xiao'er as it was, the master and servant (husband and wife?) The two of them sat on the threshold of the kitchen with squinted eyes, took a bite, closed their eyes and savored the magical taste in their mouths.

Xiao'er is not like Li Chengyang who has been hungry for tofu brains for a long time, and she refuses to know what this means for Li Chengyang, although it is delicious, it is not comfortable enough to devote herself to a bowl of rice, she enjoys only the time she and the young master are alone now, a mouthful of tofu brains and stomachs, squinting like the young master, secretly glanced at the young master who seemed to be intoxicated in the clouds, and quietly leaned his head on his shoulder, Li Chengyang hurriedly raised his head as soon as he moved, and after a while, the young master began to be intoxicated again and leaned his head up.

The cells of Li Chengyang's whole body were satisfied at this moment, the beauty was on the side, the food was in the mouth, and the pores of the whole body seemed to be exuding a sigh of satisfaction, one bite after another, and the bowl was at the bottom after a while, and he was about to take another bowl to continue, when he suddenly felt a little heavy on his shoulders.

It turned out that Xiao'er didn't know when she had fallen asleep by him, carefully looked at the little angel-like face, her little nose was wrinkled, and then hugged Li Chengyang's arm tightly.

Looking at this girl who connected everything to herself, she smiled dotingly, for more than a month, Xiao'er has changed a lot, and she began to look like a little bit of being a housewife, and she also began to discipline the two maids, and she didn't know if it was taught by the eldest grandson or trained during this time, but once she fell asleep, she leaked out of her original coquettish appearance.

Quietly Mimi kissed her on the head, Xiao'er is still young? Then he, Li Chengyang, is also the same age, what loli control or something doesn't exist, it's just a joke between peers.

Gently took off half of his coat, and the other half was hugged by Xiao'er, covering his shirt on Xiao'er, leaning on the door frame and looking at the sky and starting to have silly fun, very satisfied with his current life, what doesn't deceive people is not a problem.

Smiled and fell asleep, he used to sleep quite dishonestly, he didn't even move this night.

A ray of sunlight sprinkled down, and it took eight minutes to shuttle through the void before falling on the faces of the two people at the kitchen door, and the two of them in the sunlight were like golden boys and girls, shining with a light that a single dog did not dare to look at directly.

The cook came before dawn, looked at it and left, Li Gu, who had not waited for breakfast, went to the kitchen door to see, and there was no complaint, these two children he was a grandson and a granddaughter, if he could really come together like this, he was too late to be happy, and then he would give the cook some reward, well, there was a vision.

Everyone couldn't bear to disturb the fairy couple, but the sun was still gradually becoming vicious, as if they were angry that his greetings were not answered, and shone directly on Li Chengyang's eyes.

I opened my eyes, felt the weight on my shoulder, and breathed a sigh of relief, I didn't wake up yet, the sun was blocked by myself, and my shoulder was already unconscious, so I just insisted for a while, it was rare to be with this little girl for so long.

It didn't take long for Xiao'er to wake up, first wiped the saliva on Li Chengyang's shoulders with a red face, and then got up anxiously to prepare breakfast, seeing Li Chengyang moving his shoulders, looking half-paralyzed, and feeling his mouth to apologize to Li Chengyang, tossing for a long time before it was quiet.

Today is the day when the confinement expires, which also means that Li Chengyang's immortal life is gone, and the next time I want to rest, I will go to have a drink, well, I have to prepare a shoe, and I don't know if the same means will work, if it doesn't work, then I am thinking of a way, and I can always succeed.

After eating a bowl of tofu brains prepared by Xiao'er, he ordered to divide the rest, the eldest grandson Li Shimin and Li Yuan can't forget it, they are distributing it to their younger brothers and sisters, and the rest is given to the people in the courtyard.

Bring a bowl to Li Shi, seeing that no one in the courtyard has eaten breakfast, Li Shi will eat this bowl on the road, seeing that he is going to be late, he still has the official position of the household waiter, and it is always a little bad to be late for no reason.

When I came to the household, as soon as I entered the main hall, I saw that the gourd baby and the little old man were still busy with something, and the whole hall was almost filled with account books, which were dense enough to make people's hairs stand on end.

"What order have you received to check the entire accounts?"

The little old man hurriedly came out, first congratulated King Qin on his release from confinement, and then replied: "After the last incident, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince paid more attention to us, and you are no longer, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince ordered us to sort out the account books first, waiting for you to come back and preside over the overall situation. ”。

Hey, I really don't let him be idle at all, this book of accounts all over the ground, some of them need the gourd babies to stand on the stool to touch the top, it seems that it is not this year's military expenditure, it is estimated that all the military expenditures since the founding of the Tang Dynasty are here, Li Shimin has just made a move on the civilian officials, so I can't wait to check the generals? What is the difference between this and the cunning rabbit and the dead lackey, and the birds are hiding with a good bow?

In fact, he really misunderstood Li Shimin this time, the newly appointed Li Shimin was eager to understand the situation of all the armies, he knew Chang'an and the Guanzhong region well, but he didn't know much about some border troops, especially the army of Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji, which was unbearable for any capable and ambitious king, and Li Shimin, the emperor who was about to fight, couldn't bear it and the army was not under his control.

Since he is allowed to continue to investigate, then investigate, anyway, if something happens, he has nothing to do, and the tool man should not have his own ideas, now he is Li Shimin's tool man, and it will be over if he does things honestly.

"It's all divided, how to divide it, well, yes, just put it in the order you shoot, starting from Chang'an, one by one, the old rules, one person reads one person remembers, and after reading a book, turn out the previous folds and comparisons, at least in our can't be wrong" looked at the classification of the book, well, a pile of piles are divided, some of the crossed account books are placed in the middle, and there are notes on the piles of books.

patted the pile of Guan Neidao, signaled that it would start here, and now there is a process, that is, it is compared with the folds sent by the Ministry of War, and the account books of the Ministry of Household are only recorded in the money that has been allocated, and there are detailed information in the folds from the Ministry of War, such as how many soldiers, how much money has been allocated, and so on.
