In the inner hall, Li Xiu held a large bowl and took a deep breath with an intoxicated face, the one thing he longed for most after crossing was finally about to come true. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info but at this time, I only heard a crisp female voice next to me: "I really don't know why my husband likes this strange thing, let alone eating it, Yuechan and I just helped you peel out the seeds, and we already felt hot and uncomfortable on our fingers." ”

The person who spoke was Yi Niang, I saw her and Yuechan sitting face to face, there was a big pot full of chili peppers in the middle, they were peeling out the seeds in the dried chili peppers, and the remaining chili pepper skins were placed in a big bowl next to them, and what Li Xiu was holding in his hand was the big bowl that was already full of chili peppers just now.

"These chili peppers can only be used as a seasoning now, of course they are not very tasty, but when they are ready, you will know the charm of it!" Li Xiu said confidently at this time, after saying that, he ran to the kitchen impatiently with the bowl, before he had been busy rescuing those sweet potato seedlings, he had no time to pay attention to others, and now he finally had time to deal with these peppers, but unfortunately the pepper seeds were left, but the remaining pepper skins could also satisfy the cravings.

After coming to the kitchen, Li Xiu immediately took a knife to chop these dried chili peppers, and then put them in a large bowl, crushed some peppercorns, and mixed some sesame grains with chili powder, and then poured the oil into the pot and heated it until the oil emitted green smoke, then poured the oil in the pot into the large bowl in batches, and at the same time kept stirring, only to see a boiling in the bowl, the kitchen was immediately filled with a choking spicy smell, and when the oil temperature dropped, a bowl of the simplest chili oil was ready.

Looking at the bowl of red chili oil in front of him, Li Xiu actually had a feeling of tears, but now is not the time to be sentimental, but the time to enjoy the food, at the moment Li Xiu immediately found the frozen mutton and cut it into thin slices, and cut a few plates of various vegetables, as for the soup base, Li Xiu often ate hot pot before, but there was no chili, and the food was not enjoyable, and now he can finally realize his wish.

At that moment, Li Xiu personally brought the spicy hot pot to the living room, and when the red soup with chili oil rolled up, he immediately called Yiniang and Yuechan to taste it, but after the two came in, they immediately frowned, and Yuechan covered her nose and said: "Master, this chili pepper of yours seems to be even more choking than just now, will it really be delicious?" ”

"You'll know when you taste it, and you'll definitely want to eat it!" Li Xiu hurriedly beckoned them to come over and taste the spicy hot pot he made, saying that he first picked up a piece of mutton slices that had been cooked, and then dipped it in the dipping sauce with chili oil, and then put it in his mouth, feeling the numb and spicy taste in his mouth, Li Xiu couldn't help but show an expression of enjoyment on his face.

Seeing Li Xiu's appearance, Yi Niang and Yuechan also showed half-believing expressions, and finally mustered up the courage to pick up chopsticks and put a piece of mutton in their mouths, but as soon as the mutton entered her mouth, Yi Niang spit it out almost immediately, and her little face was also spicy red, Yuechan was a little better, chewed it and swallowed it immediately, and then she and Yi Niang went around looking for water to drink.

"Is it that spicy?" Looking at the embarrassed appearance of the two women, Li Xiu also said a little speechlessly, and then ate a few bites of mutton in a row, he only felt that this spicy taste was just right, that is, it could make people sweat profusely and not be spicy to eat, which was most suitable for eating in this cold weather.

"It's too spicy, how can you eat it, husband?" After drinking a few bowls of tea in a row, Yi Niang said with palpitations, it is estimated that she will not dare to touch this chili pepper again for a long time in the future.

"Madam, you vomited, but I swallowed it in a hurry, and now my stomach still feels hot and uncomfortable." At this time, Yuechan was holding her stomach and said with a painful face, for people who eat chili peppers for the first time, it is indeed difficult to adapt to eating such a spicy hot pot at once.

"It may be hard to get used to at first, but you will find the benefits of chili peppers after eating them a few times, so why don't you try it again?" Li Xiu tempted again at this time, hot pot should be eaten by several people around the lively scene, if there is only one person, it will be too boring.

"No need, husband, you better eat it yourself, Yuechan and I will help you peel the rest of the peppers!" Yi Niang hurriedly waved her hand when she heard this, Yuechan also took two steps back at this time, and then the two girls immediately turned around and left as if they were fleeing, which also made Li Xiu sigh helplessly, it seems that if you want people to accept this new thing, it still takes a while to get used to it.

"I wonder if the princess can accept chili?" Li Xiu said to himself at this time, but after saying that, he thought that when he first saw the chili pepper, Princess Pingyang took a bite, but it was spicy, and it is estimated that it is a little difficult to let her eat spicy hot pot now.

But at this moment, Li Xiu suddenly heard a familiar footsteps outside, and before he could react, he saw Li Shimin striding in and said with a smile: "Li Xiu, you are really leisurely, it's not even noon, you have already started to eat, I don't know what food you have prepared today?" ”

"Your Highness, this is my house, can you let someone tell me when you come?" Li Xiu saw that Li Shimin was also a little helpless, but then he found that Li Shimin was a little different from usual, and looked him up and down in surprise at the moment, and then said, "Why is Your Highness wearing armor, is there going to be a war again?" ”

"The first time people see me, they will ask me how my body is recovering, but it's good that you only notice the armor on my body, is this the righteousness of your friend?" Li Shimin did not answer Li Xiu's words, but joked, it can be seen that he is in a pretty good mood today, and even Li Xiu feels that he is a little proud.

"You don't care about your body, why should I care, not to mention that it's been so long since you were poisoned, if you still look sick, it will be strange!" Li Xiu glanced at Li Shimin and said, he didn't know the inside story, so he naturally didn't bother to ask about Li Shimin's physical condition.

"Haha~, speaking of which, thank you for keeping this secret for me, but things in the court are like this, unscrupulous means to achieve the goal, and it is estimated that this is also the reason why you have been staying away from the court." I saw that Li Shimin also sighed when he said this, but then he smiled again, "That incident has passed, and today I actually came to say goodbye to you!" ”

"Farewell? You're wearing armor again, and you're obviously going on a campaign, but you haven't heard of any fighting lately, except for one place! Li Xiu also suddenly stopped when he said this, staring at Li Shimin with blazing eyes, and finally suddenly shook his head helplessly and said, "Qingzhou, if you go, not only Yang Wengan will die, but I am afraid that more people involved in it will also die, I just hope that your subordinates will be merciful and not hurt too many innocent people!" ”

Li Shimin was not surprised that Li Xiu could guess where he was going, but he was silent for a moment and then sat down and said: "This is not the first time you have persuaded me not to kill too many people, but sometimes the situation forces me to kill people, but I am not a person who loves to kill, as long as there are unrelated people, I will never kill one more!" ”

Li Xiu can actually understand Li Shimin's difficulties, and he shook his head helplessly again at the moment, not knowing what to say. But at this time, Li Shimin saw the hot pot on the table, and couldn't help but smile again: "It just so happened that I rectified the military horses this morning, and I didn't even have time to eat breakfast, since you have prepared a hot pot here, then I'm not welcome!" ”

Li Shimin had also eaten hot pot at Li Xiu's house before, and he had never been polite to Li Xiu, so he sat down and picked up the chopsticks and ate it, but when the mutton was eaten, he couldn't help but be choked by the spicy taste and his face was red and his neck was thick. In fact, Li Shimin smelled the wrong taste of the hot pot just now, but in the past, Li Xiu would also add some pepper or dogwood sauce to the hot pot, and Li Shimin was used to it, but he didn't expect the hot pot with chili peppers to be so spicy today.

Although Li Shimin was a little caught off guard by the spicy taste, he used to like to eat spicy flavors such as dogwood sauce, so he had a strong adaptability to chili peppers.

Seeing that Li Shimin was able to accept chili peppers, Li Xiu was also very surprised, and immediately put the dipping sauce with chili peppers in front of him, but Shimin shouted happily again after eating, sweating profusely but still couldn't stop.

Li Shimin's eating appearance also aroused Li Xiu's appetite, and he stopped talking nonsense at the moment, and ate with Li Shimin, and when the prepared mutton slices and vegetables were eaten, Li Shimin sat comfortably on the chair, drank a sip of water, and then asked: "Li Xiu, what did you add to this hot pot, why is it so spicy?" ”

"It's this chili, it's much spicier than dogwood sauce!" At this time, Li Xiu pointed to the chili oil in the big bowl next to him.

"Great, I took this, you know the food in the army, with this, you won't have to worry about not being able to eat!" Li Shimin immediately reached out and snatched the big bowl of chili oil when he heard this, he really liked the spicy taste of this chili pepper, especially in such a cold weather, after eating, the whole body was warm from the inside out, as if he had drunk spirits, just too much alcohol in the army, but this chili pepper can replace the spirits, it is too suitable for the army to eat.

"Then you even eat and take it, I don't have many chili peppers here, okay?" Li Xiu didn't expect Li Shimin to snatch his chili oil, it was too late to stop it, so he could only sarcastically say helplessly.

Li Shimin didn't care about Li Xiu's words at all, he immediately found a jar in the living room and poured chili oil into it, and then hugged the jar and prepared to leave.

But at this moment, Li Xiu suddenly stopped Li Shimin, hesitated for a moment and then asked: "His Royal Highness King Qin, there is something I shouldn't have asked, but I want to ask for the princess, do you really plan to put the prince to death this time?" (To be continued.) )
