Seeing Li Ke's expression, Li Shimin couldn't help nodding secretly in his heart. Because from Li Ke's expression, Li Shimin saw a hint of perfunctory.

To put it in his heart, the most taboo thing for Li Shimin, and the thing he doesn't want to see the most, is that the sons take the heirs. Because he knows too well the end result of the succession.

If Li Ke shows his expression now, he is very willing to accept Li Chengqian's wooing. I'm afraid that Li Shimin will also be disgusted with Li Ke because of this.

Although Li Ke's expression was a little perfunctory, Li Chengqian didn't care in the slightest. still seems so concerned about Li Ke.

"Father, the son-in-law heard from the prince that the father and the emperor have something to find the son-in-law. I don't know what happened to my father looking for his son? Li Ke opened his mouth and said to Li Shimin.

Seeing Li Ke's intention to change the topic, Li Shimin said: "I ate the dumplings you made yesterday, and I still have an endless aftertaste." ”

"So I'm going to let you cook another meal today, and by the way, I'll teach the imperial chef of the Shang Food Bureau. When you're gone, I'll be able to eat delicious dumplings. ”

"Your Majesty, do you mean that His Royal Highness King Qi can also cook?" Kong Yingda, who was standing on the side, said in surprise.

Mencius once said that a gentleman is also to an animal: when he sees his life, he can't bear to see his death; Hearing its voice, he couldn't bear to eat his meat, and he was a gentleman who was far away from cooking.

Therefore, in the eyes of Confucianism, it is not a thing to advocate for men to enter the kitchen. And now hearing that Li Ke is proficient in cooking, Kong Yingda can't help but be a little surprised.

"Master Kong, in fact, it's not that this king is proficient in cooking. It's just that this king brought some condiments. With these condiments, even people who can't cook can make delicious dishes. Li Ke opened his mouth and said to Kong Yingda.

When Kong Yingda heard Li Ke's words, her hanging heart couldn't help but let go. After all, Li Ke is about to become his grandson-in-law, so he can't avoid some worries.

If someone says that the son-in-law of Confucianism is actually a chef who is proficient in cooking. Then the joke is really big.

"Condiments, the condiments in this world are nothing more than salty and sweet. Could it be that there will be other flavors? Li Shimin opened his mouth and asked Li Ke.

"Father, there is a Juewei Xuan in Qizhou City. The meals cooked by this Juewei Xuan are all delicious. ”

In order to satisfy the desire of the tongue, Erchen often goes to Jueweixuan to order a few side dishes. So after coming and going, I became familiar with the shopkeeper. ”

"Once Erchen and the shopkeeper drank together, and the shopkeeper was so drunk that he told Erchen the secret of Jueweixuan."

"It turns out that Jueweixuan's food is delicious and delicious, and it is not only the master in charge of the cooking skills. The main thing is that Jueweixuan has several condiments that cannot be found on the market at all. ”

After the retainers found out, they asked the shopkeeper to come some. This time, he was also brought to Chang'an City by Erchen, so he made delicious dumplings. Li Ke opened his mouth and said to Li Shimin.

Hearing Li Ke's words, Li Shimin couldn't help but nodded. Then he said, "That's the reason, so why don't you take out this condiment." ”

"Personally guide the chef and ask them to cook a delicious meal for us today. It can be regarded as your engagement banquet with Miss Kong. ”

Li Ke naturally would not refuse, after all, Li Ke brought the condiments to the palace this time. In order to advertise these condiments.

So Li Ke ordered someone to find Yue'er and took out all the condiments he brought. Then he said: "Father, this is the condiment that Erchen said." ”

Li Shimin naturally didn't understand the use of these condiments, so he ordered Wang De to call the head of the Shangshi Bureau. Let Li Ke explain to him in detail the use of these condiments.

……

That night, Li Shimin held a banquet in his manna hall. made a marriage contract for Li Ke and Kong Jingrou.

Empress Eldest Sun, Concubine Yang Shu naturally also attended this engagement banquet. Even Li Chengqian and Li Tai stayed. Of course, it is impossible for Kong Jingrou and Kong Yingda to leave.

When Yang Shufei saw Kong Jingrou, Kong Jingrou had already changed back into women's clothes. looks like a delicate and lovely person, don't want what Yang Shufei likes.

Li Ke also saw Kong Jingrou wearing women's clothes for the first time, and he was stunned for a while. Li Ke never thought that a heroic son would become so feminine when he changed into women's clothes.

Just when Li Ke was staring at Kong Jingrou, Kong Jingrou glared at Li Ke and said in a low voice, "Have you seen enough?" In the second half of your life, there is time for you to watch, and I hope you don't get bored of watching it one day. ”

When Kong Jingrou said this, Li Ke's face showed a faint smile, and then he took two steps forward. Stretched out his hand and took Kong Jingrou's hand and said:

Indifferent to the degree of Qingping,

The mountain alliance does not abandon the white happening.

Laughter in the eyes of the morning and evening,

Talk about the moon in the quiet night.

Food and clothing rush to share love,

Trickle of time brews true feelings.

The wind and rain road are cherished from afar,

Live up to the dust.

As soon as Li Ke's words came out, a little sparkle appeared in Kong Jingrou's eyes. If it weren't for the presence of everyone now, it is estimated that Kong Jingrou would have cried excitedly at this time.

Although Li Ke's voice was not very loud, he was still heard clearly by Yang Shufei not far away. This couldn't help but make Yang Shufei's face smile.

Seeing Li Ke coaxing Kong Jingrou, Yang Shufei naturally thought of the bits and pieces of herself and Li Shimin when they were young.

Speaking of which, Li Shimin and Yang Shufei knew each other first, after all, there is still a kinship between the two. When he was a child, Li Shimin often coaxed Yang Shufei.

At that time, Concubine Yang Shu was still a princess, but she was coaxed by Li Shimin and gave all her heart to Li Shimin.

Then Concubine Yang Shufei called Kong Jingrou to her side, took out a jade pendant from her body, and put it directly in Kong Jingrou's hands.

Then he said, "This is the meeting gift that this palace has prepared for you." I hope you and Ke'er can really do it, live up to the fate and live up to the fate. ”

Kong Jingrou took the jade pendant, nodded to Yang Shufei and said, "Don't worry, Concubine Shu, Jingrou will definitely take care of Your Highness in the future." ”

Seeing that Concubine Yang Shufei gave Kong Jingrou a greeting gift, Empress Eldest Sun was naturally no exception. also took off a piece of jewelry from his body and gave it to Kong Jingrou as a meeting gift.

This is not the eldest grandson queen picking the door and giving the things she used to Kong Jingrou. Rather, it is a blessing from the elders.

Seeing the charitable face of Empress Eldest Sun, it made Li Ke on the side a little confused. Li Ke will not forget how he became Li Ke.

As for who the person who pushed Li Ke into the pond was, it has always been a knot in Li Ke's heart.

First of all, Li Ke excluded Li Tai, and the only ones left were Li Chengqian and Empress Changsun. After all, other people are not capable yet, and arranging people in the palace is not good for Li Ke.

But now, whether it is Li Chengqian's enthusiasm for himself, or the charity of Empress Changsun's face. made Li Ke unimaginable that they would be the masterminds behind the scenes.

If it is really one of the two, then this person's city government is a little too deep.
