Qin Shaochu thought for a while, and then said, "Your Majesty, Weichen called it the full Tang Dynasty. ’
When Li Shimin heard the name, he thought for a while, "Full Tang Dynasty? ”
Qin Shaochu explained: "Yes, Your Majesty, the reason why I call it this name is because this is the ingredient of my Han people, and this is also the first time I have made this dish, which should belong to my Tang Dynasty." ”
Li Shimin was very happy to hear it, "Okay, good," that is, after I ate this time, I don't know when I will be able to eat this full Tang banquet. ”

Okay, Qin Aiqing, you say
Weichen can give this method to the cook, and when His Majesty wants to eat, he can let the chef make it, and His Majesty can also use this one hundred and eight dishes when he receives the envoys of our Tang Dynasty in the future. ”

Qin Shaochu nodded, "Your Majesty, don't worry,"
In the afternoon, Qin Shaochu explained to several cooks the method of this full Tang banquet, and did not leave the palace until the evening. Qin Shaochu saw that Duan Lun hadn't left yet, so he stepped forward, "Uncle, you haven't gone back yet?" ”
Duan Lun heard Qin Shaochu's words, looked at Qin Shaochu quietly for a while, and found that the more he watched, the more satisfied he became. Then he said: "Qin Xian's nephew, are there any elders in the family?" ”
Qin Shaochu shook his head
"Oh, then if you say something like this, my uncle will make it clear, what I told you yesterday, I went home and told my daughter, Qiuyue listened to what I said, agreed, I thought that since you are both willing, I don't know what can happen to this marriage?"
Qin Shaochu looked at Duan Lun, and then said: "Uncle, I think so, I want to give Miss Duan an idea for the two of them, and when the two of us talk about it, I was telling my uncle at that time." ”
Duan Lun thought about it and felt that there was a few reasons, "Well, since that's the case, Qin Xian's nephew, you two can have a good chat, and leave your marriage as soon as possible." ”
"Okay, uncle"

Duan Qiuyue whispered: "Morning"
Qin Shaochu sat on the stone bench and looked at her quietly
Duan Qiuyue heard Qin Shaochu say something early, so she didn't speak anymore, so she raised her head and looked at Qin Shaochu to think about something. I was angry in my heart. "But Duan Qiuyue was embarrassed to tell Qin Shaochu those things."
had to continue to play with Xuanxuan.
Qin Shaochu was really thinking about things, thinking that he had come to Chang'an City, it had been almost a year, and he should go back to Yangzhou Town to see the villagers of Baijia Village.
After thinking for a while, Qin Shaochu said to Xuanxuan: "Xuanxuan, big brother wants to go to Yangzhou to have a look, do you want to go." ’
Xuanxuan heard Qin Shaochu ask her and hurriedly said, "Yes, I want to go, where the eldest brother goes, I will go,"
Well, we'll go back to Yangzhou in a few days.
Duan Qiuyue looked at Xuanxuan and Qin Shaochu, Qin Shaochu didn't ask herself, so she said a little angrily: "Hey, don't you ask me if I'm going?" ”
When Qin Shaochu heard Duan Qiuyue's words, he was slightly stunned and patted his head, "Hey, look at my brain, that Miss Duan, are you going?" ”
Duan Qiuyue nodded, "Go, why don't you go" Xuanxuan, I'll tell you, that Yangzhou Town, there are a lot of delicious food, there are pears, there are lychees. ”
When Xuanxuan heard that there was something delicious, she hurriedly said, "Then let's hurry up and get it."
Qin Shaochu shook his head: "Xuanxuan, don't worry, when my brother deals with the matter here, we will go to Yangzhou." ’
In the past few days, Qin Shaochu has been busy with the affairs of the academy and the inn, and after dealing with it, 'on the fifth day, Qin Shaochu took Xuanxuan, Duan Qiuyue and Da Hanzi and others to set off for Yangzhou.

Zhang Zhixian hurriedly stepped forward: "In the next Zhang Jingming, welcome Dean Qin to Yangzhou Town." ”
Qin Shaochu looked at Zhang Jingming, got off the horse and came to Zhang Jingming's side, helped him up, and then laughed: "Haha, Zhang Zhixian please get up quickly, don't do this, I used to be in Yangzhou Town, and the official wants to thank you for taking care of you."
Zhang Jingming also smiled and hurriedly said, "There, there." ”
"Okay, Zhangzhi County, we'll talk about it another day, I want to see the village first"
"That's, that's, Dean Qin, you please, you please"
After saying goodbye to Zhang Jingming, Qin Shaochu continued to walk towards Baijia Village with the group.
At the entrance of Baijia Village, a villager saw a group of people walking towards Baijia Village, rubbed his eyes, and found that it was Qin Shaochu, so he hurriedly ran to the village.
