Chapter 99: Winter and hot pot are more compatible

However, when the two brothers Li Ke and Li Tai were transferred from the royal workshop and came to the palace to investigate, they found that there were too many places in this palace that needed to build a warm kang, but fortunately, the materials for building a warm kang had been prepared by Li Chengqian as early as a few months ago.

"Third brother, you said that we went to the emperor's grandfather, would we be driven out" Li Ke Li Tai decided to go to their grandfather first after checking it, but on the way to Li Tai asked Li Ke worriedly.

"I know this, it was the most suitable for the eldest brother to go, but the eldest brother is injured now, and we can only go, I hope we don't want to be kicked out" Li Ke was also very helpless after speaking, after all, this errand is not a good errand.

When Li Ke and Li Tai came to Li Yuan's palace and explained their intentions, the eunuch who was responsible for serving Li Yuan told the two brothers that the warm kang had been ordered by the prince to be prepared as early as the summer, but he didn't know how to use it.

And Li Yuan, who had been inside all the time and had already gotten up, only sighed leisurely when he saw this scene, and didn't say anything, but as the kang slowly burned well, the room gradually became warmer, and Li Yuan's mood was also good.

And after coming out of Li Yuan's place, the brothers separated again, and each took someone to get busy in the palace.

At this time, on Cuihua Mountain, Li Shimin, who had slept comfortably, got up.

"Dad, why are you so dishonest when you sleep, look at it, I was kicked several times by you in the leg" Seeing that his father woke up, Li Chengqian said complainingly.

Li Shimin, who had just gotten up, blushed when his son said this, but his strong face, that is, he was fine, as if he was nothing, got up from the kang, put on his boots, and planned to leave.

"Gao Ming, you don't have to go back to the palace first, so that your mother won't see it and worry when you go back, but you are here, and no one can take care of you, do you want me to send a few people over" Li Shimin turned his head and said to Li Chengqian before going out.

"You don't need to send someone, I've already asked someone to call my personal maid over, with her here, Dad, you can rest assured, you're saying, aren't there still the third and fourth children?"

"That's okay, you just have an arrangement, then the father will leave, take good care of yourself, and in three days, your father will come to see the young man you have high hopes for, what is the situation" After speaking, Li Shimin asked Li Chengqian to lie down, and he left the Cuihua Mountain Barracks with a hundred horses.

And Li Shimin just left for half an hour, Zhang Gao took Xia Ju and Liu Hai and hurried to Cuihua Mountain.

"What are you crying about, this king is not dead yet, what are you crying about, if you have nothing to do, go and get a glass of juice for this king, didn't you bring a lot of fruit this time?" As soon as Xia Ju arrived, when he saw Li Chengqian lying on the kang, tears fell like he didn't want money, and Zhang Gao also stood there distressed.

Hearing Li Chengqian's words, Xia Ju hurriedly wiped away her tears and hurriedly went out to get juice for Li Chengqian.

"You find a place to sit by yourself, this time I called you over, it is for you to organize those masons, and when they finish the work in the palace, they will give the king to those princes and ministers to warm the kang, remember not to let you go to give them free plates, this is to collect money, you can see how much you charge, but it can't be cheap, especially the people with five surnames and seven families, collect more, and when these people finish it, those people can also go to get it, but these people will collect less money, and those honeycomb coal stoves and honeycomb coal can also be taken out and sold, This price can be a little less, the specific is still you to get it, by the way, you will go down the mountain in a while, just call the master, go to the Yiguo Mansion first, first get the kang on the Yiguo Mansion first, and take more honeycomb coal and stoves" After instructing, Li Chengqian did not leave Zhang Gao, and let him go down the mountain directly.

However, when Zhang Gao took people to the Yiguo Mansion, he encountered some trouble.

"Manager Zhang, you are not kind, you come to the second brother Qin to plate this warm kang and send things, I don't say anything, after all, this is the reward of His Royal Highness the Prince, but I will pay you to give me a few plates in the mansion, you don't do this, is this too much to look down on me Cheng Biting Jin" Zhang Gao came to Qin Qiong's mansion, and it happened that Cheng Biting Jin was also there, watching Zhang Gao come with a lot of things, especially knowing the role of the warm kang and the honeycomb coal stove, he kept pestering Zhang Gao.

"Su Guogong, this is really not a small one that doesn't give you face, this is really not enough, there are still a lot of hot kang in this palace without plates, these people are all because His Royal Highness knows that Yiguo Gong is not in good health, so he specially transferred them, and when the plates in the palace are finished, I must go to your house, but this honeycomb coal stove and honeycomb coal can be sent to you first" Zhang Gao looked at Cheng Yanjin and said.

"Since that's the case, that's okay, you have to remember, when the dishes in the palace are finished, go to me" Hearing that the palace hasn't finished yet, Cheng Yanjin is not entangled.

"Okay, that Yiguo Gong, these craftsmen will work in your house first, and the small ones still have something to do, so they will leave first" After speaking, Zhang Gao said goodbye to Qin Qiong.

"Mr. Zhang, you are busy, wait for the old man to thank His Royal Highness the Prince" Qin Qiong saw that Zhang Gao was leaving, and said to him.

"The small one must be brought" After speaking, Zhang Gao turned around and left the Yiguo Mansion.

"Second brother, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is good to you, is there something I want you to help with" After Zhang Gao left, Cheng Yanjin said to Qin Qiong.

"I, a person who is waiting for death at home, really don't understand what I can help the prince" Hearing Cheng Yanjin's conversation, Qin Qiong was also puzzled.

"Forget the second brother, maybe it's a reward given by His Majesty in the name of the prince, don't think about it, if it's really the prince, then he will definitely come to you, and then you will know everything, but this honeycomb stove is really good, it burns well, and it's a good thing that there is no smoke and dust, and listen to what Zhang Gao said, the real good thing is still the warm kang, if it is really like what he said, then the second brother, you will not be so difficult in winter in the future" After speaking, Cheng Yanjin looked at Qin Qiong.

"Yes, if it's really that good, then my old cold legs and waist, I don't have to suffer, otherwise it will hurt uncomfortably in this winter" Qin Qiong also said with emotion.

After that, the two also warmed a pot of wine on the honeycomb stove and chatted while drinking.

At this time, Li Chengqian was lying comfortably on the kang, served by Xia Ju.

"Your Highness, what do you want to eat at night, go and cook the little one for you" When it was almost time to eat, Liu Hai knocked on the door and came in and asked.

"Didn't you teach you to fry hot pot base last time? Today you do it yourself, see if you have mastered it, but if you want to eat hot pot, if the ingredients are enough, if you don't have enough, ask someone to send it, forget it, let people send it directly, send a little more, you will do more in a while, this king is useful" Hearing Liu Hai's words, Li Chengqian thought about it and said to Liu Hai, although the hot pot base was fried last time, it was used to make dry pot chicken, and this time he took advantage of the cold weather to eat hot pot.
