Chapter 31: Hot Pot and Quilts

Hearing Li Chengqian's words, Li Shimin almost squirted out the tea in his mouth. He never expected that Li Chengqian was ready to ask him for money.

At this time, the eldest grandson queen was also scorched by Li Chengqian's words. Although he felt very funny in his heart, he still blamed Li Chengqian on the surface.

"Gao Ming, your father asked you to get some tea, how can you ask your father for money?" Empress Eldest Sun said to Li Chengqian with a serious face.

"Queen Mother, you don't know, the reconstruction of Yiqiu Palace has made Erchen take a lot of money to enter. Now Erchen is Luo Guo and the money is tight. Li Chengqian said helplessly.

"Okay, don't I still need you dozens of dollars to pay? Wang De, wait a minute, send twenty yuan to the prince. Li Shimin said.

"Then the minister will thank his father, and the next time the minister brings Tieguanyin, he will definitely give it to his father at half price." Li Chengqian said with a smile.

Li Shimin was absolutely helpless, and he really didn't want to talk to Li Chengqian about this topic anymore. So he said, "I don't know how long it will take for you to get this quilt out, so I can't just sit here and wait." ”

"If the son is not mistaken, the father and the queen mother should not have eaten yet. Why don't you just take a bite here at Erchen? Li Chengqian asked Li Shimin with a smile.

"I wonder how much I and your queen mother will give you for a meal at your place?" Li Shimin looked at Li Chengqian and asked.

"How can the sons ask their father for money for everything. Although the father and the queen mother let go of eating, the sons and daughters absolutely did not take a penny. Li Chengqian said with a smile.

This couldn't help but make Li Shimin nod, if Li Chengqian asked him for food again. It is estimated that Li Shimin has to directly attack Li Chengqian.

Li Chengqian asked Li Shimin and Empress Changsun to wait for a while, and he and Wang De went to the Shangshi Bureau. After all, Li Chengqian doesn't have any ingredients here.

Li Chengqian was going to invite Li Shimin and Empress Changsun to have a hot pot at his place. Although this hot pot has appeared in the Three Kingdoms period, it has not really prevailed even in the Tang Dynasty.

The real popularity of hot pot was in the Southern Song Dynasty, so in the Tang Dynasty, hot pot was not a famous way to eat. Coupled with the lack of condiments, the hot pot was naturally buried.

……

"Quickly cut the lamb and beef into thin slices, remembering that the thinner the better. And this is also for the palace, by the way, there is this, and this ......," Li Chengqian said point-scratching in the Shangshi Bureau.

Wang De took the ingredients that Li Chengqian needed, as well as a copper pot. Immediately after Li Chengqian, he walked out of the Shangshi Bureau and came towards Li Chengqian's residence.

Li Chengqian was in the grocery store again, exchanging hot pot base and dipping sauce. Chili peppers are naturally indispensable, and if you eat hot pot without chili peppers, the taste will be greatly reduced.

After returning to his residence, Li Chengqian placed the copper pot on the stove. Then put the makeover hot pot base into a copper pot and boil it with water.

At this time, Li Shimin found Li Chengqian's stove, which was originally very cold in a small room. Because the stove is very warm.

So he said to Li Chengqian: "Why are you lighting a fire in the room again, do you want to burn down my Taiji Palace?" ”

"Father can rest assured, the son of the son is burning charcoal in this furnace. So there will be no fire at all. Li Chengqian said while busy.

looked at Li Chengqian's iron stove and the iron chimney that sent cigarettes outside the room one by one. Li Shimin couldn't help but think to himself in his heart, wait a minute, he must find a way to let Li Chengqian install one in his manna hall.

"Father, hurry up and taste the taste of this hot pot." Li Chengqian said as he pulled Li Shimin to the edge of the fire.

Then he demonstrated how to eat hot pot, and Li Shimin felt a little strange at first. I don't know what Li Chengqian dipped in the bowl.

Seeing that Li Shimin and Empress Changsun did not move their chopsticks, Li Chengqian dipped a piece of mutton in his bowl. Then he personally sent it to the mouth of the eldest grandson empress.

Empress Eldest Sun opened her mouth and ate the mutton into her mouth. It doesn't matter if you don't eat it, this time you will taste the sweetness of the eldest grandson.

So he hurriedly picked up the chopsticks and began to eat according to Li Chengqian's appearance. This can't help but make Li Shimin want to taste it too.

Soon Li Chengqian was crying with a sad face, because Li Chengqian only ate one or two slices of beef and mutton on two plates. The others have already entered the mouths of Li Shimin and Empress Changsun.

Li Chengqian could only shake his head helplessly, and then picked up the green vegetables in the copper pot. However, it immediately attracted the attention of Li Shimin and Empress Changsun.

In the end, Li Chengqian didn't eat a few bites at all, but Li Shimin and Empress Changsun ate it happily.

"Gao Ming, your hot pot is really good. It tastes great. It's just that I have never tasted this spicy feeling after the mother. ”

"Even top-notch pepper doesn't necessarily taste like that." Empress Changsun opened her mouth and said to Li Chengqian.

"Erchen added something called chili pepper to this hot pot. Coupled with the numb feeling of pepper, it will have a spicy and spicy feeling. It's really tasty that way. Li Chengqian said with a smile.

"What are you talking about? Why have I never heard of it? Li Shimin put down his chopsticks and asked Li Chengqian.

"If my father has nothing to do and goes out of the palace for a turn, not only can he get something that he has never seen before. You can also learn about the lives of ordinary people by the way. Li Chengqian said with a smile.

"Are you saying that this chili pepper is also obtained from the people? I didn't expect that there were really good things in this folk. Guanyin, how about we go out for a walk when we have time? Li Shimin nodded and said to Empress Eldest Sun.

"It's really time to go out and take a walk, since I became this queen, I haven't left this Taiji Palace." Empress Eldest Sun nodded and said.

At this time, Xiaorou walked in with a quilt in her arms. And said: "Your Majesty, the quilt has been made." ”

After Li Shimin took the quilt, he looked at it carefully. Then, according to Li Chengqian's explanation, he wrapped the quilt around his body.

Originally, there was a stove that made the room very warm, and I just ate hot pot. Now wrapped in a quilt, so Li Shimin sweated profusely for a while.

Seeing Li Shimin's appearance, Li Chengqian said with a smile: "Father, is the son of the emperor not telling his word." Isn't this quilt really warm? ”

At this time, Li Shimin's face was not happy. Instead, he thought with a frown.

After a long time, Li Shimin opened his mouth and asked Li Chengqian: "Is it feasible to put the things in this quilt into the clothes?" ”

"Father, this quilt is made of processed white stacks, and the sons call it cotton. That's why it's called this quilt. ”

"If the father puts this cotton in his shirt, then this shirt can be called a cotton shirt." Li Chengqian nodded and said.
