Chapter 330: You say it's a coincidence
A strange aroma that was different from all the food I had ever seen before emanated from the strange copper pot in front of me.
Since Dalong does not yet have a crop of chili peppers, if you want to satisfy the most original taste of hot pot, you can only use something else to replace it to enhance the flavor.
If there is no chili pepper, then use dogwood instead, Sichuan pepper, sesame pepper don't want to put it in, all kinds of spices don't need money to fill the bottom of the pot, Liu Mingzhi is determined to make a perfect pot of hot pot.
The fire under the copper pot is steaming, the bottom material in the pot is boiling, the fragrance is strong, after everything is done, Liu Dashao is embarrassed after getting the chair, the chairs placed around the hot pot can only sit for up to six people, but there are more than a dozen princes and concubines, and the typical wolf has more meat and less meat.
Whoever is allowed to sit and who is not allowed to sit is a matter of offense.
He looked at the emperor hesitantly: "Your Majesty, the minister never expected that so many maidens would come to the imperial study today, and there are only six chairs at the moment, and it will be arranged by His Majesty for that lady to sit down and eat!" ”
"What? I want to eat with all my concubines? The rules of the palace are that there is only one person and one table when I eat. ”
With a muffled snort, Liu Dashao really wanted to smack his mouth, let you talk more, let you talk more, this was not a thing, but something happened, a headache.
"Your Majesty, hot pot requires several people to get together to eat and chat to experience its perfect feeling, and it will be boring to eat hot pot alone."
Although he didn't want to say this, Liu Mingzhi didn't have the slightest way, if the prince didn't sit down to eat and drink together, how could he talk about the coal thing.
Liu Mingzhi only said that he would give the prince 10 million taels of silver, but he did not say that the 10 million taels of silver was paid with the profits from the coal business.
The emperor wouldn't think that the young master was going to use his family's money to dedicate it to the crown prince, right? I'm crazy, and that's not how a loser plays.
Li Zheng looked at Liu Dashao tightly: "In this case, the queen, the prince stays, and the concubines should step back first." ”
"Your Majesty.........."
Li Zhenghu was stunned, and the concubine suddenly died down: "The concubine retired." ”
"The concubine retired."
Looking at a group of concubines who looked reluctant but had to leave in a huff, Liu Dashao felt worried in his heart, Ya's account will not be counted on my head.
But I didn't let you leave, I knew that all of you girls were flocking here, and I would definitely prepare a little more hot pot.
Li Zheng looked at the stacks of raw meat in front of him in embarrassment: "Liu Aiqing, you don't plan to let me and the queen eat these raw foods, right?" ”
"Your Majesty, you only need to use chopsticks to put these foods in the pot and cook them for a while, and then you can eat them, and then you can put meat for Your Majesty."
The queen is a little more open, after all, she has been married to the emperor for many years, so naturally there is no pressure.
The crown prince is different, since he can remember, he has never had the impression of eating at the same table with his father, and it is inevitable that he can't let go of his hands and feet.
"Your Majesty, it's ready to eat."
Looking at the food that had already floated, Liu Dashao immediately picked it up and put it in the jade bowl in front of Li Zheng.
Li Zheng looked at the oily and fragrant slices of meat and swallowed his saliva, although the way he ate it was weird, but he had to say that the fragrance of the food in front of him hooked the greedy worms in Li Zheng's stomach.
Zhou Fei originally wanted to test the poison, but was stopped by Li Zheng with a look, and gently picked up the meat slices and put them in his mouth and chewed: "En? ”
The emperor frowned, and the people around him immediately became nervous, staring at Liu Dashao with a serious expression.
"It's delicious and spicy, fragrant, the taste is strong, the fragrance is strong, there is a feeling of sweating on the forehead when you eat it, the fire is steaming, the hot pot, the hot pot really lives up to its name."
"Your Majesty is satisfied." Liu Mingzhi wiped the fine sweat on his forehead, but he was shocked by the emperor and made him look nervous, for fear that the emperor would blame himself for dissatisfaction.
"Queen, prince, you can eat too."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Thank you, Father."
Liu Dashao didn't have the blessing to eat together at the table, so he could only keep putting food in the pot.
The emperor and the crown prince were sweating profusely, exhaling more than once in their mouths, if there was wine, they were afraid that they would eat more openly, but the queen behaved elegantly and ate hot pot unhurriedly, but there was also a faint fine sweat on her forehead.
"Liu Aiqing, this piece of meat is extremely strong, fresh and delicious, what kind of meat is it, I feel a little familiar, but I can't say it, I was all conquered by this spicy."
"Your Majesty is really powerful, this is a strong bull that the minister has just slaughtered, the taste is quite authentic, and all the good tendon meat selected by the minister is sent to His Majesty."
Li Zheng nodded with satisfaction: "It turned out to be beef, no wonder I think it .........." Li Zheng's words stopped abruptly, and the action of chewing food in his mouth also stopped, and he looked at Liu Dashao in a daze: "Beef? ”
The queen and the crown prince also stopped, looked at the slices of meat placed on them in a daze, and then swallowed their saliva, looking at Liu Dashao strangely.
Looking at the look of Li Zheng's family of three, Liu Da Shao reacted, Mom, I said that I missed my mouth, Dalong, like any dynasty in ancient times, was forbidden to kill cattle because of low productivity.
A bull is the life of an ordinary family, even if the cow is irretrievable for some reason and has to be killed, it must be reported by the provincial government.
"Uh-huh." Li Zheng put down the chopsticks in his hand stupidly: "Liu Aiqing sit down and eat some together." ”
"Huh?" Liu Mingzhi couldn't understand why the emperor wanted him to sit down and eat, shouldn't he be scolding himself loudly?
"The minister doesn't dare, how can the minister eat at the same table with His Majesty."
"If you sit down, you will sit, and you will also taste the fruits of your hard work."
"Yes."
"Eat." Li Zheng said a word calmly.
Swallowing his saliva, Liu Mingzhi trembled and put a piece of beef into his mouth under the gaze of the three of them, oh my God, it's just delicious.
Seeing Liu Mingzhi eat a piece of beef, the three of them were obviously relieved, but unfortunately Liu Dashao was immersed in the delicacy and couldn't extricate himself and didn't find it.
"Prince, tell Liu Aiqing about the Great Dragon Law set by the first emperor, what is the crime of killing cattle and eating meat?"
Liu Dashao was stunned for a moment, and looked at Li Zheng who was sitting there blankly, no, why did you wait until I ate meat before talking about the law?
The crown prince sighed: "According to the laws of the first emperor Dalong, those who kill the bullock will be exiled for three thousand miles, and those who eat the bully will be punished with fifty rods, from the princes and ministers to the common people, without exception. ”
With a muffled snort, Liu Dashao put down the dishes and chopsticks in his hand, and finally understood why the emperor had to eat a piece of beef by himself, three thousand miles, fifty boards, play too hard.
This is to pull himself into the position of the same stream, eating the cane of the bully is fifty years old, and the princes and ministers without exception show that Li Zheng is no exception, the prince is not included, and even the queen and the female stream are no exception.
"Your Majesty, the minister was so busy that he remembered wrongly, the minister killed this cow and broke his leg while walking somehow, and he couldn't save it at all, you said it was a coincidence. The minister was so heartbroken that he could only eat three ..... with tears in his eyes can only let people slaughter it with tears, and let it die early and be reincarnated early. ”
Liu Dashao's expression was sincere and compassionate, and he almost burst into tears, if he was put in the future generations, he would definitely be the winner of the Little Golden Man, but Li Zheng looked at him coldly: "Queen, your dressing mirror seems to have been taken away by Yan'er, the palms and backs of your hands are full of meat, I am embarrassed, but Dalong has always been dangerous in governing the country, and I immediately ordered Yan'er to send the dressing mirror back." ”
"Thank you, concubine, Your Majesty."
"Your Majesty, Niangniang, the minister, after the minister goes back, he will immediately send a dressing mirror."
"How can the queen ask for a gift from a courtier, this is unreasonable, inappropriate."
"Five......... No, ten-sided. ”
"I'll just say, Liu Aiqing is such a loyal and patriotic person, how could he kill the Qianniu, since this cow broke its leg, it is better to let it be reincarnated as soon as possible, it can be regarded as a merit."
"Your Majesty."
"Father is really benevolent."
