Chapter 3: Dote on Recommendations

Li Yuansheng has a good appearance, the old man in his fifties and nearly sixty years old does not show half of his age, his face is even more angular, and his eyes are very similar to Li Er, but after all, he can't withstand the erosion of the years, and his black hair a few years ago is now mixed with some gray.

The Li family's appearance is still passable, of course, thanks to the excellent genes of this family, the Li family is also a famous family in the Central Plains, since the fifth ancestor Li Wei founded the country in the Sixteen Kingdoms, the Li family has been prominent for generations, and now it is even more prosperous.

"Grandpa, I'm going to eat that bear's paw."

Looking at the bear paw on the other side of the table, Li Chengqian's saliva flowed out, this thing is not common even in the palace, let alone such a thick one, although the current cooking methods are not as superb as those of later generations, but for some top ingredients, they are still very attentive.

"Haha, you'll be able to eat it."

Bear paw is the world's longest cooking time ingredients, the newly cut bear paw can not be eaten immediately, at least a year to wait until it is completely dry before cooking, after cutting off the bear paw, wipe the blood with a coarse cloth or straw paper, and then prepare a large porcelain jar, first use lime to pad the bottom, and then spread a thick layer of fried rice, put in the bear paw, around with fried rice tightly stuffed, put lime on top to seal, put aside for a year or two, take out and wash and cook.

The same is obviously true of this bear's paw, the bones in the bear's paw have all been removed, and the meat left behind is arranged in the shape of a bear's paw, and the surface is coated with a thick layer of honey, which looks crystal clear, and a little oily floating on the plate, which looks very appetizing.

Li Yuan picked up a chopstick and turned over a bear paw lying on the plate, and the old eunuch on the side wanted to take Li Yuan's untie knife, but was glared at by Li Yuan.

"You old thing, I will pick up vegetables for my grandson, when will it be your turn to intervene."

Uncle Wang retreated, and did not have a trace of dissatisfaction because of Li Yuan's abuse, the emperor was born to be served, when did he serve others, watching Li Chengqian enjoy it with peace of mind, Uncle Wang wanted to complain about something, but he didn't dare to speak, looking at Li Yuan's unskilled movements, Xu was afraid that Li Yuan would be injured, and he was dancing with his hands following Li Yuan's movements on the side.

Li Yuan had only done this a few times, and all of them were done for his own eldest grandson, he cut the middle piece of the bear's paw with a knife, let it be taken over with a plate, and then picked up a small spoon from the side and dug out a spoonful of honey and a spoonful of soup stock, and sent the plate to Li Chengqian.

"Thank you, Grandpa Huang, I know that Grandpa Huang loves Cheng Qian the most."

The old man Dou on the side looked at Li Yuan's appearance, glanced at the old eunuch on the side, and then shook his head with a wry smile, this old man hurts his grandson so much.

"It's good to know, then, you also eat bear paws, make a poem for grandpa, if you do it well, grandpa will have a reward."

Li Chengyan looked at the large piece of bear paw on the plate, cut off a piece with a hand-solving knife, held it with chopsticks and handed it to Li Yuan, and said with a smile after watching Li Yuan open his mouth and eat it.

"The rain is bright in spring, and the sunset is twilight.

The sea pomegranate is exhausted, and the mountain cherry blossoms do not fly.

The clear sound is a singing fan, and the floating fragrance is fluttering in the clothes.

The green tent is all close to the house, and the golden screen is semi-hidden.

The wind and flowers are endless, and the fragrant trees and birds return. ā€

After reading a poem, Li Chengqian couldn't wait to pump his mouth, what was this mouth saying, and cautiously looked at Li Yuan, who was still shaking his head, with his head down and only caring about eating the bear paw on his plate.

Li Yuan chewed the sweet bear paw in his mouth, and experienced Li Chengqian's poems over and over again.

The old man Dou on the side also smiled bitterly when he looked at the grandfather and grandson, gave Li Yuan a glass of wine with a jade pot, and then said: "Yang Guang is not a qualified emperor, but he is definitely a qualified poet. There is no shortage of talent and artistic conception, which can be regarded as a good poem. ā€

Li Yuan came back to his senses, looked at the muddy wine in the wine glass, picked up the chopsticks and gently knocked Li Chengqian, who was dealing with the bear's paws.

"Rabbit cub, he is not allowed to memorize a single poem in the future, have you heard it?"

Seeing Li Chengyan's obedient nod, the corners of Li Yuan's mouth finally had a smile. This is a very taboo thing, and the royal servants and old man Dou on the side all sweated for Li Chengqian.

In March, the Chang'an grass warbler flies, the weather is still cool, the palace people withdraw the meal, Li Yuan sits in the pavilion with a cup of tea, Li Chengyan pats his stomach that has been eaten and burps with satisfaction.

"Hey, you kid, the good atmosphere has been ruined by your burp."

Li Yuan was looking at the scenery and was a little speechless when he heard Li Chengqian's loud burping, and the things he was thinking in his head instantly disappeared.

Regarding Li Chengqian's style, Old Man Dou was already used to it, and he couldn't get used to it, so he ignored his faux pas, and said softly to Li Yuan, with persuasion and helplessness in his words.

"Jieli in the north is basically a trip south every year, and the annual loss of food population is not calculated, and now my Datang is weak, and I can't fight with Jieli, and Chang'an is too close to the grassland, I'm afraid it is not a good place to establish a capital."

"And what do you mean?"

Li Chengqian looked at the fish in the water boredly, grabbed a willow branch from the weeping willow on the side and gently teased the fish on the surface of the lake, watching the fish keep coming over, as if things were very interesting.

Li Yuan also saw Li Chengqian's movements, and gently patted Li Chengqian's pouting buttocks: "Be careful, don't drown." ā€

Seeing that Li Yuan cared about himself, Li Chengqian smiled and said to Li Yuan: "Drowning? The grandson can swim from one side of the pool to the other side of the pool without ventilation. ā€

Li Chengqian's words provoked a burst of ridicule from Li Yuan, who stepped forward and pressed Li Chengqian on the stone bench and said, "Look at what you can get." ā€

Old man Dou thought for a while, looked at Li Yuan, who was playing with his grandson, and said: "Moving the capital and moving south, even if it is to rebuild Chang'an City, it is much better than facing the Turkic soldiers." ā€

Li Chengqian's whole person was a little stunned, looking at the white-bearded old man Dou as if he had heard something wrong, looking at Li Yuan looking down and thinking, Li Chengqian had already guessed that Li Yuan had the intention of moving the capital.

With a roll of his eyes, he pretended to be aggrieved and walked up to Li Yuan, pulled Li Yuan's sleeve and said, "Grandpa Huang, I'm afraid my grandson is leaving Grandpa Huang." ā€

Li Yuan was awakened by Li Chengqian's thoughts, and looked at the aggrieved Li Chengqian and didn't know what was going on.

"What's going on here? It was fine just now. ā€

"The grandson beat the younger brother of Chengdao, and also beat the younger brother of Chengde, and the nobles in Chang'an City provoked a lot, just now Grandpa Dou said that if he can't beat it, he will run, and they add up to his grandson, so he can't beat him, and his grandson can only run."

Li Yuan looked at Li Chengqian's appearance, and then looked at the old man Dou on the side, Li Yuan laughed.

"Although my Datang is far from Jieli, I am not afraid of the point where I will not fight back, you see, I am about to be like a person like earth, and I have not yet seen a little doll."

Old man Dou shook his head and smiled bitterly, looking at Li Chengqian, who was winking at him, Old Man Dou shook his head gently: "Your Highness Su Hui, and the grandson of Fengzi Long, how can the minister compare?" ā€

Li Yuan looked at Li Chengqian, who was starting to stir the water in the pond again, and said on the side: "Su Hui has it, but he doesn't use it to get to the right place, it's not a good thing to make trouble every day, let him go to Hongwen Hall to study tomorrow, it's time to study." ā€

Li Chengqian really wants to slap his mouth, isn't this a disaster for himself? Looking at Li Yuan, who looked firm, he said aggrievedly: "The group of sour Confucian grandchildren in Hongwenguan disdain to be with them, and the grandson's ambition is to cross the horse and raise the sword, and open up the territory for my Tang Dynasty, so that he doesn't learn those things." ā€

Going to elementary school with a group of little fart children, how boring it is, I can only pretend to be stupid and cute, hoping that Li Yuan can agree to himself.

"Huh? How can it be done, even if it is a general who straddles a horse and raises a sword, he has to know how to read, right? If you enter the Hongwen Pavilion, then the imperial grandfather will promise you one thing. ā€

Li Yuan couldn't help it when he looked at Li Chengqian's aggrieved appearance, this grandson's idea is very good, if you give him a hard one, the little bastard can throw off his face and run, and he can't catch it, so he can only say it with a pleasant face.

Knowing that this matter is unavoidable, after all, he has reached the age of enlightenment, even if Li Yuan doesn't say it, Li Er will force him to go, but it's just one after the other, Li Er is far from being as good as Li Yuan to talk to, and if he is coquettish and cute in front of him, he will break his leg.

"Do you promise anything?"

"Well, promise anything!"

Li Chengyan smiled, then looked at Li Yuan with treacherous eyes and said: "That's okay, now the grandson won't say it, but what if the emperor's grandfather doesn't accept it?" It's better to reel to be safe. He said that he was naughty and kept his tail finger in the depths.

"Okay, pull the hook and pull the hook." Li Yuan's childlike heart is up, looking at the villain essence Li Chengyan is also very happy, with this child, he is always so relaxed, simply enjoying the joy of family, not like those children and grandchildren who intrigue every day, for that position all day long you fight for me, brothers have no affection, it is more terrible than strangers.

The royal people are all this virtue, and when they reach a certain status, there will be no constraints, and the relationship between people will become extremely cold, even if it is a father and son and brother, it may not be reliable, this is the sorrow of the royal nobles.

Feeling the heat in Li Yuan's hands, Li Chengqian smiled very happily, but behind this happiness was a strong helplessness, there are too many people or things in the dreamy Datang that make Li Chengqian regret, and the old man in front of him is Datang's biggest regret.

"Okay, the meal has been eaten, and the promise has been given, it is not a way to take it with grandpa after all, let's go back to the palace after playing in the palace for a while."

Li Chengqian nodded, looked at the scenery in the distance and said to Li Yuan: "Let's let Uncle Wang go back with me, my father's temper you know, if you go back like this, you will definitely be beaten." ā€

Li Yuan was stunned for a moment, looking at Li Chengqian's face leaking a smile, the most satisfied thing is that this child is smart, he knows how to borrow, and he knows that Wang Shi is his confidant and asks Wang Shi to go back with him, if he is a teenager Li Yuan is not strange at all, but how old is Li Chengqian? It's just in his early sevens.

"Okay, then let the king send you back, but after you go back, you will be soft with your father, and then tell your father about entering the Hongwen Pavilion, after all, it is father and son, and you don't dare to hold grudges."
