Chapter 82 Children are filial to their mothers and seek peace for their mothers

Li Chengqian and Li Tai rushed to the imperial dining room and saw Fang Chen guarding a stove without saying a word, carrying a big stick in his hand, constantly stirring.

"Second brother, are you alright?"

"Second brother, don't be angry, next time I find a chance, I will definitely let Concubine Yin and Li You die!"

They didn't know that Li Shimin was even more ruthless than them, and had already made a sacrifice to take Concubine Yin's mother and son, so as to help Fang Chen stabilize his emotions.

After all, Li Shimin is more worried about Fang Chen's next illness (hysteria), if he can't control it, he is afraid that he will be jealous of the talent.

"I'm fine, I'm just going to make some supplements for my mother."

Li Chengqian and Li Tai were slightly surprised, looking at the thick thing in the pot, it was hard to imagine what kind of tonic this was.

"Second brother, what are you going to do? Why don't you let the Imperial Chef help you? ”

Fang Chen smiled bitterly: "They are all helping me, haven't you noticed?" ”

Only then did the two of them notice that the entire imperial dining room was busy, and stacks of sugar cane were being transported in.

Peel the skin, squeeze the juice, then pour into the pot and boil.

"Second brother, this sugarcane juice is delicious, but what kind of tonic is there?" Li Chengqian asked.

Brown sugar has been invented since ancient times, which is the method of boiling without an open flame, and it really began to spread, and it was only established after Tang Taizong sent an envoy to India.

Fang Chen pointed to the contents of the pot and said: "Brown sugar can moisten the lungs, help the five internal organs, generate Jin, detoxify, help spleen, and slow down liver qi!" Most importantly, it is the most effective for women, it has the effect of replenishing qi and blood, and I did it for my mother in the early years. ”

They naturally understood who Fang Chen's mother was.

"Second brother, I'll help you!"

"Second brother, and me!"

The three brothers each set up a large pot and boiled the sugarcane juice, and the juice was boiled over medium heat and slowly boiled, stirring for two hours, and the sky entered the early hours of the morning, which was done.

Fang Chen ordered someone to turn off the heat and let the syrup cool.

"Go and get me some eggs, bring more, and Brother Prince and Qingque will have to eat something."

"Ha~ very good." Li Chengqian yawned, and Li Tai on the side had already fallen asleep.

Fang Chen scooped the boiled brown sugar out of the pot and put it aside to cool.

I broke a small bite and put it in my mouth, thought about it, and then broke another piece and stuffed it into Li Chengqian's mouth.

Li Chengqian didn't care at all, tasted it carefully, and showed a satisfied smile on his face, sweet, with some strange taste, after all, this was the first time he had eaten brown sugar.

"Qingque, wake up, it's done."

Li Tai was woken up and wiped his saliva, "Are you alright?" ”

Li Chengqian also broke a piece of Li Tai, but it was a little big, and threw it all into Li Tai's mouth, and Li Tai's face was distorted.

"Big brother, what is this? Do you want to poison me? ”

Fang Chen hurriedly explained: "This thing is true to eat raw, and it is best to boil soup." ”

endured and didn't spit it out, Li Tai was still a little unsatisfied after eating a whole piece.

"Second Highness, the eggs have been brought over."

Part of the brown sugar is boiled in water, part is used to boil eggs, and the rest of the brown sugar, Fang Chen also plans to make some steamed eggs.

Although they are all light foods, this is a great supplement!

Boiled eggs and steamed eggs are also simple and don't take long.

Fang Chen thanked the imperial chefs who helped, after all, they had helped all night, and then ordered that it was forbidden to spread it, and this method should stay in the palace.

"Yes, the minions know, whoever dares not to listen, the minions will definitely make him regret it!"

Yang Qi took the cooks to give a salute, and then asked Fang Chen and the others to leave.

There are more than a dozen brown sugar eggs, and there are relatively few steamed eggs, only a few bowls.

Chapter 82: Filial Piety to Mother, Seeking Peace for Mother (

Fang Chen, Li Chengqian and Li Tai shared ten eggs, and the taste was really good, and the aftertaste was endless.

"This brown sugar steamed egg is directly sent to Niangniang, His Majesty and the Emperor, if you want to eat it, just heat it up."

"The slave maid knows, the three highnesses should rest for a while."

Returning to the side hall of Kunning Palace, the three of them were once again crowded into one bed, and Li Chengqian and Fang Chen quickly fell asleep.

Li Tai slept for a while, so he was not very sleepy, and got up and found two brown sugar eggs to eat in his stomach.

"The things that the second brother made out are really extraordinary, alas, I really can't eat it."

climbed onto the bed, squeezed between the two, and after a while, the snoring was like thunder.

The most tired were Fang Chen and Li Chengqian, staring intently for two hours, and also stirring them with sticks for two hours.

When the winter sun hung up again, Li Shimin, who got up in the morning, was very surprised when he looked at the bowl of steamed eggs in his hand.

"You mean, Cheng Qian, Yu'er, and Qingque did it all night?"

Liu Sancheng bowed his body, "Yes, Your Majesty, the three highnesses are tired, and they haven't woken up yet, and they are all resting in the side hall of Kunning Palace." ”

"Why didn't you tell me to wake me up last night? It's cold, how to get their minds right? ”

Liu Sancheng sighed and said: "Your Majesty, this is what His Royal Highness the Second and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince meant, and several His Highnesses stayed up all night to make this thing, mainly for the queen's mother." ”

"Oh? What's so important about this? ”

"His Royal Highness said that this is brown sugar, and a lot of energy has been wasted, and the entire imperial dining room has been busy all night, and all the sugarcane in the treasury has been used up, so that less than a tank can be made."

Then he talked about the function of brown sugar again, and mentioned that His Royal Highness did not allow the imperial dining room to be passed on.

Li Shimin nodded, and immediately understood the meaning of this, "Leave this matter to Guanyin, and the inner library can also have some silver taels." ”

The manufacture of steel, horseshoes and saddles is basically done by the Ministry of Industry, and no one else can interfere. Even if Li Shimin has the heart to make some money from these, there is no way.

As for the cooking method that Fang Chen passed on? For the time being, I haven't considered opening a restaurant for the royal family, after all, it will damage the royal face when I say it.

"Does Guanyin know over there?"

"Back to Your Majesty, Niangniang is eating at the moment, and has already sent the palace maid to the imperial dining room to record this method of boiling brown sugar."

"Very good, I will taste it too."

It melts in your mouth, and with the taste of eggs and the aroma of brown sugar, you are indescribably satisfied.

If he didn't pay attention to it, the bowl was empty, and Li Shimin felt a little unfinished, "Is there anything else?" ”

"Yes, but it's a hard-boiled egg."

"What?"

"Your Majesty, the three highnesses ate some eggs before dawn this morning, and then went to sleep."

Originally, he was not satisfied, but at this moment, Li Shimin couldn't say anything, and filial piety was the first word, overpowering everything.

Pursed his lips and sighed, "Fetch me what they eat, I want to eat!" ”

"But Your Majesty, there are only two left, and they haven't been heated yet."

"I said it, I want to eat!"

Liu Sancheng had no choice but to send someone to fetch it, peel off the skin, and swallow it in one gulp, Li Shimin found that it was too far from this steamed egg.

But the taste is okay, but after it is cold, there is a choking. The two eggs fell to the stomach, and I was still a little hungry before, but now they are gone.

"Go to court!"

Waving his sleeve robe, Li Shimin's heart is indescribably comfortable, my royal family, is not so dark? Isn't it?
