Chapter 54 Lamb Soup

Li Jiancheng gave a salute to the two gentlemen from the bottom of his heart, because he knew that what Mr. Li Gang and Mr. Li Yi said just now was sincere.

Especially Li Gang, this kind of self-analysis, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is regarded as a nephew.

After Li Gang received Li Jiancheng's salute, he stroked his beard and smiled: "Since you have this intention, I will repair a book now." "Anyway, the meal is not good, and idleness is idleness.

Li Jiancheng called Li Shou in and told him to go to his study and bring the pen and ink; Because Li Jiancheng's little servant Li Xi followed Liu Shenwei away, Li Jiancheng whispered a few more words and told Li Shou to bring the best bamboo paper.

After Li Shou turned around to get the pen and ink according to Li Jiancheng's instructions, Li Gang said: "Go back and talk to Tang Gongguo first, see what his opinion is, if he supports you to change your literary path, it would be better, if you have concerns, just find a time, I will meet Tang Guogong." ”

When he said this, he thought of something, and his words changed: "However, I think it will be a year later, I heard that the Turkic Khan is going to enter the court, and His Majesty ordered someone to put up a lantern and wrap the tree in colored satin to show the wealth of my Great Sui......" Speaking of this, Li Gang was stunned, and mockery flashed on his face.

Li Yi coughed, interrupted Li Gang's words, and said with a smile: "I heard that there are singing, dancing, and juggling; If you want to come to the Tang Principality, you don't have time to come back for the New Year. ”

Li Jiancheng hesitated for a moment and said: "I don't know much about this, but I heard that I will meet on the day of the first month of the new year and the first day of the new year." I don't think I can pass this year, but I think compared to my father, the officials of Honglu Temple who are in charge of foreign guest affairs are even busier. ”

Li Gang was stopped by Li Yi, and did not say the half sentence of working for the people and hurting money, and after listening to Li Jiancheng's words at this time, he asked: "How do you think the national strength should be displayed?" ”

Li Jiancheng couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "Sir, do you want to hear the truth or a lie?" ”

Without waiting for Li Gang to speak, Li Yi raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh, let's hear it?!" ”

Li Jiancheng groaned slightly, sorted out his language and said: "The army is strong and strong, and the people have no worries about food and clothing; This is the standard answer given by the sages. And I think that the problem is not so simple, after all, national strength is not static. For example, it is not uncommon for a group of hungry and red-eyed people to rob rich people who are stronger than him; There is no external call, the rat is jealous, and the rich are afraid of bumping, which responds to the sentence, the soft are afraid of the hard, and the hard are afraid of not dying. ”

Li Gang's eyes flashed, and he blurted out: "Are you saying that the Turkic wolf's ambition will not only not be cowardly, but will give birth to covetousness because they see that we are rich?!" ”

Li Jiancheng immediately shook his head and said, "Sir, I didn't say that. "Li Jiancheng, who knows the direction of history, of course knows that the Turks will often come down to fight in the grass valley, and he just thought of the trajectory of the original history, so he felt it.

However, when Li Gang made his words clear, Li Jiancheng immediately came back to his senses, and he could only metaphorize this matter, but he couldn't admit it; The literary path he wants to take does not include the position of strategist, otherwise for the Li family, which started with martial arts, it will be like a tiger with wings, which is even more fearful.

Li Gang examined it for a moment, and nodded brightly: "It's that I'm thinking too much." "I think it should be a coincidence that Li Jiancheng just now, if he really has the ability to be a strategist, he can also take over the inheritance of the Guogong Mansion as a Confucian general. Li Jiancheng is worried about how he will go in the future.

Li Yi was very shocked by Li Gang's digression just now, after all, he didn't know what kind of character Li Jiancheng was as a student, who knew if he would turn around and spread the words that were unfavorable to them.

So, he said haha: "Built, then I'll ask you something you said, where did you see your "Journey to the West"?" ”

Li Gang turned his head to look at Li Yi, shook his head and sighed, took a sip of the tea soup, and tried to suppress the sourness in his heart.

After Li Jiancheng heard Li Yi's words, he was really grateful, and hurriedly said the words that fooled Xiao Li Er.

Li Yi nodded with a smile after hearing this: ""Zhuang Zhou's Dream of Butterflies" is also derived from a dream, and it is interesting. ”

Xiao Li Er thought that Li Yi would ask what happened later, but he didn't expect Li Yi to just say such an interesting sentence and it was over.

Xiao Li Er's heart jumped with excitement, and he fell to the bottom all of a sudden, and couldn't help blurting out: "Sir, since it's interesting, don't you want to know what happened later?" ”

Li Yi laughed when he heard this: "Shimin, you and Jiancheng have an agreement in the past, saying that it is a story of an article for half an hour, how can I know that there is such an agreement, and I still ask each other, when the time comes, because I am Mr., I naturally come out, this is not a violation of the gentleman's agreement between you, this is not to be done!" ”

Xiao Li opened his mouth twice, but he couldn't find the right words, and finally his little face was entangled: "Sir, that's right." "A posture of knocking out a tooth and swallowing it in the stomach.

"Erlang, what did Mr. say about you?" At this time, Dou Hui took the maid and brought in the freshly made mutton steamed buns, just saw Xiao Li Er's expression, and then thought of the half sentence he heard faintly just now, so he asked.

Half soup is prepared a long time ago, and it doesn't take long to cook some flatbread out. Therefore, as soon as Li Jiancheng said such a conversation, Dou Hui brought things out.

Li Yi replied with a smile: "Shimin didn't do anything wrong, we just chatted. ”

Dou Hui nodded and said, "It's good that you haven't done anything wrong, then the gentlemen eat first, and I will be out of company; My mother-in-law is still waiting for me to eat together. After speaking, he nodded to Li Jiancheng, and then left.

Before Dou Hui brought the food over, she made a tasting first because she was not at ease, so she is very confident now.

After Dou Hui left, Li Yi and Li Gang looked at the food placed in front of them. Mutton broth, flatbread, salt dish, spring onion foam, coriander (coriander) foam......

Although the food utensils are exquisitely made, with two layers up and down, the upper and lower stages, and the burning charcoal fire keeps the mutton soup boiling, but it can't hide the fact that it is a mutton soup.

Li Gang raised his eyebrows and asked, "Completed, this is the food you newly researched?" ”

Li Yi glanced at Li Jiancheng when Li Gang asked and spoke, and it was written in his eyes, even if I heard you say that you left us down for dinner, but you can also use dim sum!!

Li Jiancheng hurriedly explained with a smile: "Sir, although they are all mutton soup, they are clear soup, which is different from what they usually eat. And the bun should be pulled into the size of a soybean and then soaked in mutton soup. As he spoke, he wiped it and started to demonstrate.

Because Li Yi got two books from Li Jiancheng today, it is naturally difficult to dismantle the stage now, so she started to do it in a similar way. (To be continued)
