Chapter 59 [The Emperor Kills the Pig, Ku Ding Releases the Cow]
Li Shimin suddenly became curious, and couldn't help but say: "You have never said this. ”
The eldest grandson looked at Li Yun's back, and said with kindness: "That time, the concubine and the sister-in-law of Jiancheng went to the city to hang out, and the local family specially set up a trap to let a few scoundrels rush out to do bad things, and the concubine and the sister-in-law of Jiancheng were about to be dragged into the alley by them, and suddenly the third brother rushed out in a rage, he killed people with a few punches and kicks, and then said to the concubine in a milky voice, sister-in-law, sister-in-law, don't be afraid, my brother will protect you for the rest ......of your life."
The eldest grandson's eyes were a little red when he said this, and he muttered: "At that time, the third brother was an eleven or twelve-year-old little doll, but he dared to kill for his concubine, and he refused to say it no matter how his father asked him afterwards, everyone thought he was born stupid, but the concubine felt that he was not stupid at all, he knew that his sisters-in-law were almost humiliated, and his reputation must not be good, he would rather admit that he was crazy and murderous, than say the real reason for that incident." ”
Li Shimin was stunned for a long time, he didn't expect that there was such a public case back then, the emperor's face was cloudy for a long time, and he suddenly gritted his teeth and said: "Xingyang Zheng's ......"
The eldest grandson gently pulled her husband's arm and said softly: "These are all past events, Your Majesty must not hold grudges, and besides, the concubines did not suffer, and the third brother killed all the villains." ”
Li Shimin's chest rose and fell a few times, as if he was unwilling to show his hatred in front of his courtiers, he suddenly turned his head to look at Li Yun, and said headless and brainless: "This kid is very stupid, he can't even kill pigs......"
Suddenly raised his feet and got up, went straight to the fat pig, snorted lightly in his mouth, and pretended to scold: "The two little dolls get out of the way, see what this king teaches you to do, if you kill the pig like you, don't even think about eating meat before dark." ”
Over there, Cheng Chumo and Li Yun were sweating profusely, the master and apprentice really couldn't kill pigs, one stabbed around with a knife, chopping the necks of a few fat pigs, and the other was doing it with his bare hands, as if he wanted to tear off the pigskin.
Li Shimin stepped forward and kicked Cheng Chumo away, he snatched the short knife of the little overlord with his hand, suddenly looked at the short knife and smiled, and scolded: "Good guy, golden knife, I am afraid that this is given by the emperor, you actually took it to kill the pig." ”
Cheng Chumo touched the back of his head stupidly, and said with a sneering face: "I didn't prepare a blade in advance, only this thing is still in hand." ”
"Kill a pig and ask for a fart blade!"
Li Shimin scolded with a smile, turned his head and saw that Li Yun was trying to pick up the pigskin, and the emperor stepped forward and kicked Li Yun away, pretending to reprimand: "Get out of the way, I look upset." ”
Li Yun was furious when he kicked him, and he was about to fight back, but he saw Li Shimin snorting with a knife, and stabbed directly into the pig's neck with his hands and feet, and then the knife slid and pounced directly into the stomach.
The emperor raised his foot and stepped on the pig's head, with a quick knife in one hand and peeling the skin with the other, and in a blink of an eye, he peeled off the whole piece of the pigskin, and the most amazing thing was that the pigskin was completely undamaged.
Li Yun was amazed, and couldn't help but squat aside to study, and after a long time, he praised and said, "Your skills are good, have you been a butcher before?" ”
Li Shimin's wrist trembled, and he almost couldn't hold the knife steadily.
But Li Yun didn't finish speaking, and continued: "Looking at your technique, you must have been a good butcher before, hey, strange, does the royal family also have people who are born as butchers?" Your daughter-in-law is so beautiful, how could she marry a butcher in the first place. ”
The eldest grandson over there almost laughed.
Several important ministers looked at each other, all trying to hold back their laughter, Fang Xuanling's face turned red, and he forcibly held back an elegant sentence, and said: "Ku Ding Jieniu is also a ...... in the world."
The eldest grandson deliberately joked, and said with a smile: "No matter how good you kill, you are still a butcher." ”
Li Yun didn't know if he really didn't hear it or if he didn't hear it, so he pointed at Li Shimin and laughed: "Look, I'll just say that you used to be a butcher." Hey, are you interested in joining the company, I have a business of drying bacon......"
……
Li Shimin's face was longer than a donkey, and he gritted his teeth and stared at Li Yundao: "Little thing, you guessed right, this king was indeed a butcher before, and he is going to continue to be a butcher in the future, but your trading skills are too small, and it is difficult to invite a butcher like me to join the gang." ”
Li Yun pursed his lips and said with a smile: "Then when I have a big deal in the future, how about inviting you to join the gang as a butcher?" ”
The emperor suddenly threw the golden knife to Cheng Chumo, wiped the blood on his body, stared at Li Yun and nodded: "Okay, it's decided, in the future, when you have a big hand, I will join you as a butcher." ”
The look turned out to be very solemn.
Li Yun stretched out his hand with anticipation on his face, stared at the emperor and said, "Why don't we high-five the oath?" ”
"Get out of the way!" Li Shimin flew up with a kick and kicked Li Yun away.
The emperor strode to the side, sat directly on the ground, and said slowly: "The pig has helped you kill it, and the rest of the things this king is not good at, cook, I heard that you are going to make a pig-killing dish." ”
Li Yun smiled, and suddenly turned his head to Cheng Chu and said silently: "Apprentice, start the pot and boil the water, he doesn't want to do it, our master and apprentice do it ourselves, there is no Li Butcher, and we still eat fat pigs." ”
Li Shimin was slightly stunned and said, "Do you know that this king's surname is Li?" ”
Li Yun turned his face and smiled, blinked his eyes and asked curiously: "As a prince in the Tang Dynasty, is it not surnamed Li and Sun?" ”
Li Shimin stared at him up and down for a long time, and suddenly smiled: "That's right, the prince of the Tang Dynasty can only be surnamed Sun, you little baby, you are very bad in your bones......"
It seems that he still wants to add 'not like your father at all', but after thinking about it, he finally held back, he is the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and he can't express his position easily. Once this sentence is spoken, it is no different from directly acknowledging Li Yun's identity.
If you admit it, you have to be crowned a king.
But at present, Li Yun's identity is still a little doubtful.
"Let's wait until the Baiqi Division comes back...... the emperor thought in his heart, and said secretly: "It's time to arrive in Hebei, and I guess I'll go back after finding out." ”
……
Over there, Li Yun and Cheng Chumo were busy again.
The master and apprentice one of them lit the fire, but the other kept chopping off the meat of the fat pig, and threw the large pieces of pork directly into a bucket, and then poured the hula directly into the cauldron.
Li Shimin frowned, and asked curiously, "You just cook it like this?" ”
Li Yun didn't reply, continued to chop the meat and threw it into the bucket, gathered a bucket and poured it into the cauldron again, and then explained: "Cook for a while, boil the blood foam out, and then change the water later, and then use various methods to stew!" ”
"Ways?"
"Yes, the pig's body is full of treasures, everything can be cooked, but each of the methods is different, and the added seasonings naturally can't be the same, such as pig's head meat, you have to use peppercorns, plus cinnamon corn, and then burn on a high fire, the worse the cooking, the better it is, and then for example, pork knuckle, which has to be steamed in the cage drawer, the steamed powder is tender and clear, even the toothless old man can eat it, and there is braised pork, this thing can't be ...... with peppercorns."
He babbled and introduced for a long time, Li Shimin's eyes straightened when he heard it, and the emperor suddenly stood up with a little expectation, stared at the cauldron and said: "Since ancient times, it has been said that pig meat is not allowed to be feasted, and if you do this, it will become a hard dish." ”
Li Yun said twice, a little proudly: "Pork is originally a hard dish. ”
suddenly glanced at Li Shimin and deliberately asked, "You don't think it's cheap meat, do you?" ”
The emperor smiled faintly and said noncommittally: "Everyone in the world knows this, this king is inconvenient to change, I will say that this is cheap meat, but I didn't eat less back then, at that time, I led the troops to fight everywhere, and I didn't eat anything when I was short of food?" Once fought in Hebei for a period of time, the army ate wild boars for half a month, and wild boars are cheaper than domestic pigs, but this king still eats hard. Although the fishy smell is difficult to deal with, meat is still strong. What about cheap meat, if the people can eat enough and cooperate, this king is willing to take the lead in eating cheap meat every day......"
Li Yun glanced at him again, and said thoughtfully: "No wonder you kill pigs so neatly, it seems that you are not a butcher." ”
Li Shimin smiled and said with deep meaning: "I am the big butcher." ”
