Chapter 53: Who knows the Chinese food
Chang'an City.
Cui Shaoqing is gone, and on the side of Chang'an City, the matter of Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu smashing the shop has begun to spread slowly.
But this thing is not a particularly novel sensation, so the speed of transmission is not very fast.
Cheng Chumo didn't care much about this, and the next morning, they went to the palace to study as usual.
In the palace, there is a school, which was specially set up by Li Shimin for the crown prince and other princes.
Because many sons of the princes in the DPRK and China are also at the age of study, Li Shimin also allowed them to enter the palace to accompany them.
In this court, the people who are qualified to enter the palace to accompany the students are basically the people who have received the holy favor, so many officials are proud that their children can accompany them.
However, for Cheng Chumo and the others, they didn't think so.
On the contrary, they felt that it was too inhibited to stay in the palace and study.
The prince's teacher was strict, and they didn't dare to mess around.
The most important thing is that the crown prince Li Chengqian is too well-behaved, very obedient, and respects his teacher.
The crown prince Li Chengqian respects the teacher, so naturally these people dare not mess around and make the teacher angry.
In the palace middle school, the prince and the son of the prince of the country, there are almost 20 people.
After Cheng Chumo and the others came to the school, they were all very excited, which had never happened before.
They hate studying on weekdays, so they used to have little energy in class, and most of them fell asleep.
Today, they are full of energy, as if they have won a battle.
It is Li Gang who teaches them today.
Li Gang is a great Confucian, during the Sui Dynasty, he used to be the teacher of the prince Yang Yong, and he routinely persuaded Yang Yong, after the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, he was Li Jiancheng's teacher, and he also routinely persuaded Li Jiancheng, but Li Jiancheng did not listen, so he resigned and retired.
In the spring of this year, after Li Shimin ascended the throne, he invited him to go out of the mountain and become the teacher of the crown prince Li Chengqian.
It can be said that Li Gang is a figure who has been a teacher of three princes in two dynasties, such a person is rare in the entire Sui and Tang dynasties, even if you look at the whole of China, it is also rare.
Therefore, Li Gang's identity is very noble.
What he teaches today is the Analects.
Although the Analects is not very long, it contains a lot of things, and it is not possible to explain a subsection thoroughly in a day or two.
Li Gang has a deep understanding of the Analects, so after talking about it in a small place, he is a little unstoppable.
All morning, he was preaching the Analects
This "Analects" is very useful in the eyes of many people, so many people study it very seriously, and they don't feel anything when they listen to it for a long time.
But Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu were a little anxious.
"What's going on with the master today, I've been talking about the Analects for a long time, didn't he always ask us to write poems before?"
"I wanted to pretend to be forced, but I wasn't allowed to write poems, which was really disappointing, and I would have slept for a while if I knew it."
"Who said no, alas......"
A few people sighed a little, and it took another half an hour for the morning's homework to be over.
Because there is also an arithmetic class in the afternoon, these people can stay in the palace to eat.
After class, a group of people followed Li Gang to the dining place.
Although the palace is very large and luxurious, after Li Shimin ascended the throne, there was a shortage of money and food in the Tang Dynasty, and now the entire palace from the Empress of Heaven to the palace maids and eunuchs are advocating frugality, so the meals of Li Chengqian and his students are not much better.
Just some rice, with two side dishes.
Such a meal, in the eyes of these princes, the sons of the princes, what kind of food is there?
It's all for the next person to eat.
But in the palace, they didn't dare to say it, at most they ate a little less.
Cheng Chumo and the others ate the food that Cui Shaoqing had made yesterday, and now that they eat this again, they have no appetite even more.
"Cheng Chumo, this meal is really hard to swallow, or let's stop eating, skip class later, and go out to eat."
Yu Chi Baolin had a bitter look on her face, Cheng Chu waved her hand silently, and said in a low voice: "Remember the poems that Brother Cui taught us yesterday?" ”
"I remember."
"Just remember, our chance to perform has come, hurry up, finish the meal, and see me later."
"Ah, finish eating these?"
"yes, hurry up and finish eating."
Cheng Chumo said, then picked up a bowl of rice and pulled it up, as if the bowl of rice was very delicious, Yu Chi Baolin and Qin Huaiyu saw Cheng Chumo like this, and secretly said that they were so ruthless, but then, they also pulled up.
They eat fiercely.
Some other people were very surprised when they saw this, and they all hurriedly looked over.
"Tsk, I haven't eaten in a few days, and I can even eat such a meal?"
"Who's to say no, could it be that their father won't let them eat at home?"
"But that's not going to happen, is it?"
Su Lin and Su Feng were very unkind to Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu and others, and now after seeing Cheng Chumo and the others, they couldn't help but laugh.
Li Gang was a little surprised when he saw this situation, but he didn't say anything, just ate his own food lightly, his food was the same as that of the students, he also felt that it was not very delicious, but as a teacher, it was natural to be an example, and now the palace advocates frugality, if he doesn't eat and dislikes it, how can it be?
He also admired Cheng Chumo a little that a few people could eat the food so quickly.
And just when they were surprised, Cheng Chumo picked up the last grain of rice in the bowl with chopsticks, and said very compassionately: "On the afternoon of hoeing day, sweat drops fall into the soil." Who knows that Chinese food is hard work? ”
After speaking, he put the grain of rice into his mouth, chewed it very energetically, and said: "Who knows that the Chinese food on the plate, every grain is hard, every grain is hard." ”
As he spoke, he shook his head again, and everyone who looked at it was stunned.
These students are only children in their teens, but even if they are children, after hearing this poem, they think that this poem is good, better than what their husband wrote, but it is so good that they don't know it, they just think it is catchy.
Li Gang's chopsticks for eating suddenly stopped.
He secretly read this poem in his heart, and after reading it, he was extremely shocked, and couldn't help but want to shout a good poem.
This is simply a standard poem that admonishes everyone to be thrifty, this grain of rice, but it is all planted by the people's hard work, how can it be wasted, how can it not be eaten?
Thinking about it, Li Gang suddenly felt that his food had become delicious.
He decided to eat all the bowls of rice.
And just as he was about to eat the rice, he was suddenly stunned.
Who is the person who wrote this poem?
He turned his head and saw Cheng Chumo, and then his heart rippled.
"How is this possible?"
