Chapter 229: The Situation with Canned Food
"The prince's situation is not good!" The sound of firecrackers outside the window, from time to time there was the laughter of Qi Niang, Fan Er and others, but Ma Ye said with a heavy face in the window, he was not worried about how Li Jiancheng was, but worried that after something happened to Li Jiancheng, it would make Princess Pingyang sad.

"It's not good, I think it's just the beginning!" Li Xiu also sighed at this time and said, Ma Ye only said one thing when he came to him today, that is, Li Jiancheng sent Yang Wengan to raise private soldiers, and the person who reported it was the subordinate official of the East Palace who was sent by Li Jiancheng to send armor to those private soldiers, so Li Jiancheng was useless no matter how he defended.
"I don't care about the prince's life or death, it's just that the princess ......" Ma Ye couldn't help but sigh when he mentioned Princess Pingyang, he still hides this matter from Princess Pingyang, if she knows, I don't know what she will worry about?
Li Xiu sighed the same when he heard this, sometimes he really wanted to take Princess Pingyang away and fly away like this, and no longer pay attention to these things in Chang'an City, but Princess Pingyang couldn't get rid of the fetters of family affection at all, so she wouldn't agree to leave at all.
"Uncle Ma, what is the situation in the court now, is the prince very passive?" Li Xiu thought for a moment and suddenly asked, although he knew the direction of this incident in history, he was still worried about what would happen to this matter due to his appearance?
"Not only passive, after this matter was issued, the King of Qin immediately took a headache to reprimand the prince for attempting rebellion, although His Majesty suspected that the prince might be designed, but he was also very angry at the prince's practice of raising private soldiers, and now the prince has been placed under house arrest in the East Palace, and the guards of the East Palace have also been replaced by guards." Ma Ye spoke again, he was also very surprised by Li Yuan's approach, no one expected that overnight, the prince would almost fall to the point of being imprisoned.
"Your Majesty should send someone to arrest Yang Wengan next, but it's just ......" Li Xiu couldn't help but sigh when he said this, the Yang Wengan incident in history is finally going to be repeated, but the time is a few months in advance, if you calculate it like this, I don't know if the Xuanwumen change will be advanced?
"Yes, Your Majesty has sent someone to arrest Yang Wengan, if this matter is confirmed, I am afraid that the status of the crown prince will drop greatly in His Majesty's heart, even if he does not abolish his position as crown prince because of this, I am afraid that King Qin will have a greater chance to win the throne!" Ma Ye also said with some emotion at this time, but he would never have thought that Li Shimin's plan was far more than that.
"Forget it, we can't take care of the affairs between King Qin and his brothers, and this matter won't be hidden for long, so I'll talk about it on the princess's side!" Li Xiu suddenly shook his head at this time and said, Li Shimin has nothing to do with him how they like to toss, the only thing he cares about is Princess Pingyang, and talking about this matter himself can better comfort Princess Pingyang, so as not to make her think too much.
"It's best for you to go, during this time, there is a constant fight between the king of Qin and the crown prince, and the princess will be worried every time she knows about it, so that I don't dare to go back now, so as not to be caught by the princess and ask me about the court." When Ma Ye heard Li Xiu's words, he immediately showed a relaxed expression and said, he was worried about how to tell Princess Pingyang about this, since Li Xiu was willing to do it for him, it would be the best.
"By the way, Cheng Yanjin has already talked to me, but I still have some doubts about the business on the grassland, so I didn't give him a word, I just said that I would talk to him in detail after the next year, how is your canned food now?" At this time, Ma Ye remembered Cheng Biting Jin again, and asked Li Xiu at the moment.
"Don't you say I almost forgot, calculate the time, those cans have been stored for two months, why don't we open a few bottles and see how it works?" Li Xiu also suddenly remembered at this time that two months is not a long time for the shelf life of canned food, but it is enough to see the preservation effect of canned food on food.
Ma Ye was also very interested when he heard this, and went to get canned food with Li Xiu at the moment, Li Xiu divided the canned food into three batches and stored it, the first two batches were stored in the bedroom and kitchen at home, one was high temperature but very dry, and the other was a large temperature change and relatively humid, Li Xiu took three bottles of canned food and put them on the table in the living room, at this time Yi Niang and Qi Niang and others were also curious to surround them.
"Yuechan, what is this, why has it been stored in the kitchen and bedroom?" Yi Niang looked at the cans on the table, and asked Yuechan next to her curiously, she had seen these cans before, but she didn't know what they contained.
"This is called canned food, which is used by the eldest brother to preserve food, and it is said that the finished fruits and vegetables can be stored for half a year to a year, and they can be eaten directly after opening." didn't wait for Yuechan to answer, Yi Niang next to her preemptively spoke, although at the beginning, she was still a little unacceptable to Yi Niang, but with this period of getting along, especially Yi Niang often took classes with her, and sometimes asked her questions, which made the relationship between the two slowly become closer.
"Keep food for half a year to a year, and you can eat it straight after opening it?" Yuechan couldn't help but be shocked when she heard this, since she got married, she had found that there were too many incredible things around Li Xiu, but today, this thing called canned food once again broke her perception of the world.
At this time, Li Xiu first took the three bottles of canned food in the bedroom in front of him, and then the knife opened the cork on it, and the names were written on the canned bottles, Li Xiu deliberately selected three different types of canned food, namely braised pork, mutton and boiled vegetables.
When the three bottles of canned food were opened, the three dishes inside were normal from the outside, and then Li Xiu smelled it again, and there was no peculiar smell, so it should be no problem, but Li Xiu was still a little worried about this primitive canned food, and he didn't know whether to eat it for a while?
"By the way, Qi Niang went to call Xiao San and let him try these cans!" Li Xiu suddenly thought of a good way at this time, and immediately instructed Qi Niang, Xiao San has been kept as a pet by Qi Niang at home, and now he is fat and fat, fatter than ordinary pigs, and he doesn't call when he sees outsiders, he only knows how to eat raw Haisai every day, and he doesn't have the slightest awareness of a dog, and it just so happens that today he finally has a place to use.
"No, these cans have been stored for so long, what if I let Xiao San eat a bad stomach?" Qi Niang resolutely objected when she heard this, Xiao San was one of her best friends, so she was reluctant to let Li Xiu use it for experiments.
"Just be careful, isn't it just a few bottles of canned food, I'll eat it!" Ma Ye saw that Li Xiu actually wanted the dog to try it first, but he said a little impatiently, and after speaking, he grabbed the bottle of canned mutton and poured it into his mouth, but as soon as the mutton came to his mouth, he sighed in surprise, and then chewed it a few times quickly, and his face showed an even more surprised expression.
"How is Uncle Ma, can you still eat canned food?" At this time, Qi Niang asked with some curiosity, she wanted to know what the mutton tasted like after being put for so long?
"It tastes good, it's like it's just made, it's a little cold, and it's even more delicious if you heat it up!" Ma Ye said and swallowed the mutton in his mouth, and then poured the remaining half of the canned food into his mouth, a bottle of canned food is more than a catty, thanks to Ma Ye's mouth is big enough.
Seeing that Ma Ye had eaten it, Li Xiu gritted his teeth and reached out to grab a bottle of canned food, but he didn't expect that a hand suddenly stretched out next to him and grabbed a bottle of canned food with him, but when Li Xiu looked up, he found that it was a fan who had always been greedy.
"That...... This meat is so fragrant, let me eat it! I saw Fan'er's face flushed, she was indeed attracted by the taste of braised pork, so she couldn't help but reach out and want to eat.
"Okay, then you eat this bottle, I'll eat that bottle of greens!" Li Xiu also let go helplessly when he heard this, and then picked up the canned vegetables next to him, originally he wanted to make canned fruits, but it was already winter at that time, and he couldn't find fresh fruits at all, so he had no choice but to make some canned vegetables, mainly not to eat, but to see the effect of preservation.
"I'll do it!" Yi Niang saw that Li Xiu wanted to eat, but she stopped him at the moment, and Yuechan next to her also wanted to replace Li Xiu, but Li Xiu smiled and waved her hand, she was also a big man, so naturally they couldn't let them do this kind of thing.
However, he regretted a little when he put the boiled vegetables in his mouth, because he just remembered that it was just to test the preservation of canned vegetables, so these vegetables were just boiled with water, and they didn't even put salt, so that the taste of the boiled vegetables was not mentioned, even if the canned food was preserved so that the vegetables did not deteriorate, but it still made people feel difficult to swallow when they ate it.
"What's the matter, this vegetable can't be eaten?" Seeing the painful expression on Li Xiu's face, Ma Ye asked with some concern at the moment, if canned food can only preserve meat and not vegetables, it will be a huge shortcoming.
"I can eat it, but the taste is a little worse." Li Xiuqiang endured to swallow a piece of green vegetables, no wonder others said that salt is the first of all flavors, and dishes without salt are simply too unpalatable.
Ma Ye was a little unconvinced when he heard this, so he immediately took the canned vegetables and poured half a bottle directly into his mouth as he did just now, but after chewing a few times, he swallowed it without changing his face, and then nodded to Li Xiu and said, "It tastes good, and it still smells like green vegetables." ”
"Uncle Ma, you can eat it without salt, the younger generation admires it!" Li Xiu said with a look of admiration when he saw this.
"What is this, have you ever eaten a rotten and soft radish with a lot of lamb with maggots and flour full of black worms......
"Don't, Uncle Ma, don't say it again, you still don't let us eat after talking about this for the New Year?" Li Xiu hurriedly interrupted Ma Ye at this time, and the Yiniang and Qi Niang and others next to him had already shown a little disgusting expression, but Yuechan had the same expression as usual, and it seemed that she was not affected at all.
Next, Li Xiu and the others tried the cans in the kitchen again, and found that there was no problem, now there are only cans left in the greenhouse, the greenhouse is hot and humid, and it is also a great challenge for the preservation of cans, and I don't know what happened to the cans inside?
