Chapter 210: A Road to the Dark
"Yes, eat locusts, the old doctor said, there are many places in the south where people eat locusts and insects on weekdays, not to mention when they are affected by disasters, they will use insects as their main rations. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info "Wu Yuanqing fooled Li Shimin with what he said to Sun Simiao again, in fact, it is not a fool, in later generations, locusts were indeed eaten in many places, and even became popular for a period of time.
"By the way, Doctor Sun said that locusts are sweet, pungent, and warm. It can strengthen the spleen and eliminate food, relieve wind and spasms, relieve cough and asthma, and clear the channels. It is used for rapid and slow convulsions, convulsions and spasms; Whooping cough, bronchial asthma, wheezing cough and shortness of breath and other diseases, the minister thinks that what he said later is very similar to Niangniang's condition, and it should be very good for Niangniang's illness" Wu Yuanqing added another weight, he knew that as long as it was good for the queen, even if he was unwilling, Li Shimin would do it.
"But how do you eat this locust, I've never heard of eating locusts, and I don't know how to make this thing compared to others," Li Shimin shook his head and said.
"The minister also asked Doctor Sun about this question, and Doctor Sun said that the method of locusts is very simple, and it is similar to how we cook on weekdays. It is nothing more than frying soup, stir-frying, grilling, frying or grinding. You can put oil and fry locusts with fennel, or roast locusts, grind them, and then take this kind of medicine is more suitable for medicine, these are the two specific ways to eat that Sun Shenyi said, and other ministers can also make it" Wu Yuanqing also pushed the locust practice directly to Sun Simiao.
The first time Sun Simiao saw Wu Yuanqing, he was regarded as the best back-handed man by this product.
"This, this, I still can't connect locusts with food," Li Shimin said with a wry smile.
"The minister also thinks so, but what Doctor Sun said is not unreasonable, this locust can be used in medicine, that is, it can be eaten, but we may not eat this thing here in the north, or there is none, so I think it is so strange" Wu Yuanqing looked the same as the emperor's heart-to-heart and thought.
"Yuanqing, I know that you met the fairy in your dream, learned a lot of things, and knew a lot of things that ordinary people don't know, even the fact that there is land on the other side of the sea, so I don't know if you have heard of this insect eating thing" Li Shimin asked with a solemn expression.
"Your Majesty, dreaming of immortal fate is pure nonsense, how can you believe in this kind of thing. Chen was seriously ill at the time, and he was drowsy and didn't know what kind of dreams he had, and it had nothing to do with the fairy fate at all" Wu Yuanqing categorically denied it, this kind of god and ghost thing, the family can just talk about it, if you admit it in front of others, it will be stupid.
Not to mention that Li Shimin, the emperor, did this kind of immortal thing when he was old in history, and it is said that the cause of death was the elixir that Wang Xuance got from Tianzhu.
If he confesses the matter of meeting immortals in front of him now, when he is older, he thinks of the stubble of seeking immortals and seeking immortality, and finds himself to be immortal, where to get him this thing that does not exist at all.
Don't be slashed by the old and confused emperor at that time, that's just the funny comparison of the unjust death.
"Okay, you say that if you don't have a fairy fate, then you should have no fairy fate, I don't want to ask you for immortals, I want to rob your fairy fate, really, I just want to know if you know about eating insects" Li Shimin knew Wu Yuanqing's jealousy, and smiled helplessly.
Wu Yuanqing was not ready to explain too much about the matter of Xianyuan, and said directly: "I have heard of eating insects, it seems that they are eaten in many places, and all kinds of insects dare to eat them, what spiders, centipedes, scorpions, cicada chrysalis, all kinds of things, strange, only there are no insects, there are no insects that dare not eat." But no matter how specific the minister is, he doesn't know, and he can't remember when he heard about it, anyway, the minister thinks it's disgusting to eat insects, and it is estimated that these things about eating insects are all nonsense from hearsay that the minister doesn't know when, and your majesty still don't believe it."
Wu Yuanqing is one push, two, four, six, anyway, as long as he doesn't recognize anything about the fairy fate, I've heard about eating insects, but don't want to ask where I heard it, I forgot it.
Hearing Wu Yuanqing admit that he had heard about eating insects, Li Shimin was a little tempted in his heart, if either Wu Yuanqing or Sun Simiao said that insects could be eaten, Li Shimin would not think so, but both of them said so, then this kind of thing is very necessary to try.
Sun Simiao is a great miracle doctor, and what he says is not far from ten, although Wu Yuanqing often causes trouble, but his erudition in knowledge, then Li Shimin is also to be admired.
Just the bizarre and whimsical stories he said are not known to ordinary people.
Not to mention Wu Yuanqing's understanding of the mountains and rivers of the Tang Dynasty, as well as the various humanities and opinions of the surrounding countries, that in Wu Yuanqing's words, it is called a little knowledge, but it has already made the officials of Honglu Temple who have been dealing with the subject country all year round breathtaking.
Although there are differences in the details of the maps of the surrounding countries that Wu Yuanqing casually draws, the general trend, especially the dividing line between the continent and the sea, is more detailed than the map drawn by the Tang Dynasty itself.
There are many things about this island and that island, many of which Li Shimin, the emperor, has never heard of.
Seeing that Li Shimin had begun to be moved, Wu Yuanqing was secretly happy in his heart, but he said: "Maybe the minister's understanding of Doctor Sun's words is a little biased, but Your Majesty still sent someone to ask Doctor Sun again."
Li Shimin groaned, nodded and said, "What you said is very reasonable, the stakes are very high, it is indeed better to ask Doctor Sun again."
Then, Li Shimin called over an attendant and asked him to go outside the city to ask Sun Simiao about whether the locusts could be eaten.
If this is really asked, Wu Yuanqing's previous series of nonsense will be exposed, and Wu Yuanqing naturally can't watch such a thing happen.
So Wu Yuanqing smiled and said, "Your Majesty, there are many people in the disaster camp, and eating locusts is a big matter, so it is better not to let too many people know. I think it's best not to ask Dr. Sun directly if the locusts can be eaten."
"Then, how should you ask according to your meaning" Li Shimin thought about it and felt that it made sense, now in and outside the city, although there were a lot of people who spread rumors before, but after all, the rumors were spread, and many people worshipped locusts as locust gods, so delicate, it is not too much to be careful, so he asked.
"I will ask Doctor Sun if the locusts can be used in medicine, which can confirm whether the locusts are okay or not, and will not be associated with others else" Wu Yuanqing came up with an idea.
"Did you hear clearly, just ask according to his words," Li Shimin said with a wave of his hand.
The chamberlain walked backwards.
Wu Yuanqing pursed his lips and snickered.
