"Brother, how can this chicken be so delicious" The little girl squinted her eyes and said to him after taking a bite of the chicken breast that Li Chengqian gave her.

"If it's delicious, you can eat more, if it's not enough, we'll be doing it in a while," said Li Chengqian, who tore off a chicken leg and put it in the little girl's bowl.

And the little girl just smiled at Li Chengqian, and buried her head in eating her called flower chicken, looking at such a little girl, Li Chengqian smiled.

also tore off another chicken leg and gnawed it, but not to mention, this ancient chicken is more fragrant than the previous life, this is just a little salt and green onion and ginger wrapped in lotus leaves are several times more delicious than the previous life I don't know how many spices were put in, if this is adding some spices, then I don't know what it will taste like.

And just when the two brothers and sisters were gobbling up the flower chicken in front of them, the people who didn't know outside were already talking.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, what are you doing inside, how can there be such a strong fragrance?"

"That said, this fragrance is so tempting, it's more fragrant than what I smelled in the Smelling Pavilion."

"What is that in the Smelling Fragrance Pavilion, last time I passed by the team to deliver food to His Majesty, I didn't smell this incense"

And when the guards, eunuchs and palace maids were discussing in a whisper, Li Chengqian's brother and sister had almost finished eating a whole chicken called Huajiao.

"Liqin, have you eaten enough?"

"Brother, Lizhi is full, but what about the rest" Lizhi looked at the remaining chicken heads on the plate and some meat on the skeleton, and asked Li Chengqian reluctantly.

"Manager Zhang, you can take Xia Ju and eat these! There's still some meat on it, don't waste it, and you're done eating, Xia Ju, you'll go to the imperial dining room to find me some pork meat, you want the kind with skin, fat and thin."

After speaking, Li Chengqian took the well-fed little girl in the yard and slowly dispersed.

And the two of them, who had already been impressed by the fragrance of the flower chicken, had no luxury of expecting to taste such a delicacy, but they didn't expect happiness to come so suddenly, and after the two of them were busy thanking Li Chengqian, they picked up the few remaining called flower chickens and gnawed them, and while gnawing, they also said words such as delicious and delicious.

"If you like it, when Xia Ju goes to the imperial dining room in a while, I will bring a few more back, just call the cook from the East Palace, and I will teach him how to do it" Seeing the two people who were nibbling on the flower chicken without any care, Li Chengqian thought about it and said to them.

"Thank you, Your Highness, the slave is rude" Hearing Li Chengqian's words, Zhang Gao and Xia Ju remembered that their master was still there, and hurriedly bowed to Li Chengqian.

"Okay, what's so rude about this, just do what I tell you to do"

"Slaves and maids must do their best to serve His Royal Highness the Prince"

"This king knows that you are loyal, so go and do things after eating, by the way, Mr. Zhang, the saltpeter that this king asked you to take, got it back."

"Your Highness, the saltpeter slave has been brought back, but the old slave has one more mouth, I don't know what His Highness wants saltpeter to do" Zhang Gao asked Li Chengqian respectfully.

"This, you will know in a moment, you first go to find a large pot filled with water, and find a larger clay pot filled with water, and if there is any fruit in the palace, bring some, if not, ask someone to go to the imperial dining room to get some back" Li Chengqian instructed Zhang Gao.

"The old slave understands, let's go and prepare" After speaking, Zhang Gao went down.

At this time, the little girl was already dozing off because she had just eaten enough, the weather was hot, and she had been playing crazy with her for a while just now.

"Brother, I want to sleep" The little girl's eyes were almost open, and she hugged Li Chengqian's leg and said to him.

"If you want to sleep, go back to your room and sleep, when you wake up, the eldest brother is cooking another delicious food for you" Li Chengqian doted on the little girl who was already 6 or 7 years old, and walked out of the yard to his room.

And the palace maids who were guarding outside, especially the little girl's personal palace maids, all looked at them with wide eyes, but Li Chengqian ignored them, and whispered orders not to make a noise, not to make noise to the little girl who was already asleep.

When Li Chengqian settled the little girl, Zhang Gao had already prepared everything Li Chengqian wanted.

"Are things ready?" Li Chengqian asked him when he saw Zhang Gao coming back.

"Your Highness, everything you want is ready, or put it in the courtyard just now," Zhang Gao said respectfully to Li Chengqian.

"Okay, then let's go over" After speaking, Li Chengqian came to the previous courtyard again.

And as soon as he arrived, Xia Ju, who had been sent out by him before, came back with a palace chef and a few eunuchs with a bunch of things.

When Li Chengqian saw that Xia Ju was back, he first asked those eunuchs to take the pork to the kitchen of his East Palace.

"You are the imperial chef in the palace, what is your name" Li Chengqian looked at the long-looking black, fat and chubby middle-aged man in front of him and asked.

"Back to His Royal Highness the Prince, the lower official is the second-grade imperial chef in the imperial dining room, and the lower official is called Liu Hai" Hearing Li Chengqian's question, Liu Hai quickly knelt in front of Li Chengqian and replied respectfully, although he didn't know what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was looking for, but he knew that if he was favored by the prince, he would definitely be better than mixing in the imperial dining room.

Because there are not too many second-grade imperial chefs like him in the imperial dining room.

"Okay, then you can stay in the East Palace in the future, now I will ask you to cook a dish, see that chicken, you first use green onion ginger water and salt" After listening to Liu Hai's words, Li Chengqian commanded Liu Hai.

When Liu Hai heard it, he was stunned for a moment, but he reacted quickly, and he didn't dare to ask the prince what he knew how to cook, so he marinated the chicken according to Li Chengqian's wishes.

Seeing that Liu Hai marinated the chicken, he asked him and Xia Ju to put the previously marinated chicken with green onion and ginger and wrapped it in lotus leaves, and wrapped it in a layer of mud.

And after these were done, Zhang Gao's fire also rose, Li Chengqian saw that Zhang Gaosheng's fire was a bit big, Li Chengqian thought about it, anyway, making one and making several are done, so he asked Liu Hai to make all the chickens that Xia Ju brought back.

When all the chickens were covered in mud, Li Chengqian instructed them to throw the chickens wrapped in mud and lotus leaves into the fire.

"Okay, it's over here, you remember the method, first you ask Xia Ju to take you to the kitchen to wash the pork meat, clean the hair on the skin, cut it into one-inch cubes with skin, and wait for the king there, Xia Ju After you take him to the kitchen, cut those fruits into small pieces and bring them over, if you have honey, bring some over, forget it"

"Yes, the little one understands"

"Slave, understood"

Hearing Li Chengqian's order, the two agreed and went out.

"Zhang Gao, don't worry about those called flower chickens, just let them roast there, you first come over and put the clay pot in the wooden basin and cover the lid, and then add saltpeter to the wooden basin" After Liu Hai and Xia Ju left, Li Chengqian called Zhang Gao, who was staring at the fire.
