Chapter 247 Do you think that if you smear the pot with ashes, I won't know it?

The time has entered the eighth month of the lunar calendar.

This is also the season of autumn harvest in the northern land.

The Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching on August 15.

The hot weather in Chang'an City has finally begun to subside.

In the morning and evening, it is obvious that you can feel a little cool.

Li Tai and his entourage finally arrived outside Chang'an City.

When the first rays of the sun shine on the earth in the morning.

Outside the Mingde Gate, Li Tai, Li Ke, Li You and others appeared.

In the morning, the soldiers defending the city prepare to open the city gates.

I saw that it was several highnesses outside the Mingde Gate.

Immediately open the Mingde Gate slowly.

Li Tai smiled and nodded.

"Driving... Drive...

The people rode their horses and went straight to the Suzaku Gate.

"Auspicious, Ru Yi, Chang'an..."

"Let's go back to the East Palace first..."

"Uncle Huang, I will go to see my father and mother first, and then I will go to the Xiande Hall to discuss matters."

Ji Xiang, Ru Yi and Chang An, nodded.

Under the escort of Wang Xuance and Xi Junmai, he went straight to the East Palace.

"Father, mother..."

"Child... I'm back..."

Li Gen and the crown princess had just finished washing.

The voices of the five children were heard.

It's like a heavenly sound.

made the crown princess's eyes instantly burst into tears.

Red Sleeves and Tim Incense, also in the wind, came out of their respective rooms.

Looking at auspiciousness, Ru Yi and peace.

Originally, the five children with fine skin and tender flesh were all tanned at this time.

It's impossible to be a parent without feeling distressed.

Fortunately, after traveling tens of thousands of miles, he finally returned safely.

Li Gen swept over the five children one by one.

Nodding with great satisfaction.

"Nice, nice..."

"Father found you much stronger."

"Talk to your mother and concubine, my father is going to attend the court meeting."

"Xuan Ce, Jun Mai, I have worked hard all the way, change my clothes, and accompany the palace to the court."

Wang Xuance and Xi Jun bought it and hurriedly changed into brand new official uniforms.

Follow the prince left and right, and go straight to the Hall of Virtue.

In the Lizheng Palace, it is also very lively at this time.

The return of Li Tai, Li Ke and Li You.

Let Li Shimin and the eldest grandson queen close their mouths happily.

Looking at the swarthy and shiny Li Tai.

Li Shimin discovered for the first time that it turned out that black was also a very manly performance.

No wonder Cheng of the dog day bites gold, not ashamed, but proud.

"Qingque, where are the people in Chang'an?"

"If you go back to your father, the sons asked them to return to the East Palace to see the eldest brother and sister-in-law first."

"After more than half a year, the children miss their parents very much."

Hearing Li Tai's words, Li Shimin and Empress Eldest Sun both smiled and nodded.

"My green sparrow is becoming more and more careful, good, great good..."

"Your eldest brother, you have decided to start conquering the Southern Continent, and you will have to work harder in the future..."

Li Shimin was in front of Li Ke and Li You, naturally he couldn't say that your eldest brother was ready to hand over the Southern Continent to Qingque for management.

The palms and backs of the hands are full of meat.

Even if he is preferred, Li Shimin can only secretly prefer now.

"Father, Mother..."

"Erchen, go to the Hall of Virtue first, and report to the eldest brother what you have gained from this trip."

"Let the civil and military officials take a good look at the magical colors of that magical land in the Southern Continent..."

"Okay, let's go... Go for it..."

"After the next court, come back quickly, a few of you will accompany your father and mother to dinner, and then talk to your father and mother about the magic of that magical place..."

Watching Li Tai, Li Ke and Li You leave, Li Shimin had a bright smile on his face.

······

In the Hall of Virtue.

Because of the return of Li Tai and his entourage, it was much more lively.

Today's court meeting time is much longer than in the past.

If it weren't for Li Gen's consideration of his father and mother, he would definitely have a lot to ask Li Tai, Li Ke and Li You.

The time of the pilgrimage will definitely be extended until nightfall.

Li Tai has thoroughly demonstrated his talent and eloquence today.

provoked Li Gen to nod approvingly frequently.

The civil and military officials were brought into a novel world by Li Tai.

Sometimes he scratches his ears and cheeks, and sometimes his eyes glow golden.

Sometimes salivating, sometimes gasping...

All in all, in a word.

Hundreds of people and hundreds of faces, everyone's mood is extremely excited.

Tens of thousands of miles away, there is really such a large piece of treasure land.

The glass balls brought by His Royal Highness King Wei were easily exchanged for countless gold.

Everyone had one thing in common.

There are a lot of stupid people here, come quickly...

No, it should be a quick go.

Li Gen was very satisfied with Li Tai's speech.

Looking at the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, they were all excited, this was exactly the result that Li Gen wanted.

Zhao Si and Feng Wu, in the Hall of Xiande, opened the two sacks.

Reveal the golden corn and plump sunflower seeds inside.

Call!

Call!

Everyone gasped with excitement.

The people of the court are their own courtiers.

Li Gen is naturally not too stingy.

After ordering someone to get the tools.

Li Gen is in the Hall of Virtue, turning on the fried melon seed mode.

When the hall of virtue began to permeate the fragrance.

Everyone, swallowing hard.

Cheng Chumo, Yu Chi Baolin, Xue Rengui and others all drooped.

Soon, a pot of hot freshly fried melon seeds came out of the oven.

Xiande Hall opens the melon seed mode.

Cheng Chumo and Yu Chi Baolin directly grabbed a handful and stuffed it into their mouths.

"Fragrant, so fragrant..."

The feeling of being full of fragrance is really not too refreshing.

Li Gen looked at the two Shangshu, who looked unproductive, and really wanted to fly over with a big kick.

"Melon seed shells, you eat them too, your teeth are really good..."

Li Gen's words made the ministers who were ready to concoct the same method stop immediately.

In this way, Cheng Chumo and Yu Chi Baolin did not eat correctly.

Li Tai, Li Ke and Li You all laughed, and even Li Chunfeng, Wang Xuance and Xi Junmai almost couldn't hold back their laughter.

When they first saw sunflowers, it was when the sunflower seeds inside the sunflowers were ripe.

Li Tai and the others didn't know how to eat this thing at that time.

Li Tai regretted it at the time, why didn't he ask the eldest brother how to eat the seeds of this sunflower.

It was Shuwan and Shulin who had an idea, and directly took off a sunflower seed and put it directly into their mouths.

The skin is astringent, and the meat is fragrant.

Shuwan and Shulin's words made Li Tai instantly think of peeling the shell and eating it.

It's just that I didn't expect that after this sunflower seed is fried, it will be so fragrant.

Li Tai's skillful appearance of eating melon seeds made Li Gen smile and nodded.

It seems that this kid, along the way, has no less Huohuo.

The ministers also understood the way to eat melon seeds under the demonstration of His Royal Highness King Wei.

"Your Royal Highness, this thing is so precious, it is His Royal Highness the King of Wei, His Royal Highness the King of Wu and His Royal Highness the King of Qi, who have traveled thousands of miles to bring back to the Tang Dynasty, and they should be left to be used as seeds..."

Among the ministers, many people gave courtesy and advice.

Li Gen smiled and nodded, and spoke.

"The hearts of the secretaries can be seen by the sun and the moon."

"There are seeds, and the secretaries don't need to worry about it."

At this time, Li Tai said that the sunflower seeds he brought back were enough for dozens of carriages.

And I will go to that magical place again in the future, and everyone is completely relieved.

Everyone happily swallowed melon seeds.

On the land of China, the first large-scale melon seed eating mode was officially opened in the most sacred and solemn place of the Tang Dynasty, the Hall of Virtue.

"Zhongqing, this corn tastes very delicious, tomorrow, because the process is more cumbersome, tomorrow, the palace will give the ground cornmeal to Zhongqing to taste."

"This autumn is about to pass, and next spring planting, the palace will let the land of Datang start planting corn and sunflowers."

"Some places are suitable for spring planting, some places are suitable for summer sowing, and the yield varies from place to place..."

"Today, the King of Wei, the King of Wu and the King of Qi have crossed tens of thousands of miles to return to Chang'an City, and their father and mother are also very concerned about the three of them."

"Today's court meeting, for the time being, this is the end, tomorrow the palace will discuss the affairs of the country with the secretaries..."

"Ministers, obey Your Highness's instructions."

The ministers respectfully bowed and retreated.

Li Gen stood up from the dragon chair.

led Li Tai, Li Ke and Li You to go straight to the Lizheng Palace.

When I left, I brought the last pot of fried sunflower seeds.

In the Lizheng Palace.

Li Shimin and Empress Changsun, although they waited in a panic.

But the two also knew that compared to the major events of the country, it was no problem for them to wait a little longer.

After all, the affairs of the court are fundamental.

"Father, Mother..."

"Erchen, you've been waiting for a long time..."

"This is Erchen, the freshly fried sunflower seeds are still hot!"

Li Shimin and Empress Eldest Sun nodded with a smile.

Sunflower seeds, finally you can taste them again.

Last time, Li Junxian brought back too little, and it was not enough to stuff his teeth.

It's really this melon seed, the more you swallow it, the more addictive it becomes.

Once you catch it, you can't stop at all.

The Imperial Dining Room prepares delicious food and wine.

The chamberlains and palace maids all carried delicious food and wine and sent them to the Lizheng Palace.

"Come on, go and invite the crown princess, Jixiang Ruyi and Chang'an. Tell the King of Jin again..."

"By the way, go and spread my Changle, let her bring the little crescent moon and come over with her."

Li Shimin's preference for Princess Changle can be seen from this.

Many princesses, but only Princess Changle was summoned.

Li Tai asked curiously.

"Father, Mother..."

"Where's my sister?"

Li Tai wondered, the son is also the heart of the father and the queen mother.

Why don't you send your son-in-law to you?

"Qingque, you went to the Southern Continent, you don't know anything."

"My son took the exam of Datang Medical College and came out on top."

"Now I am studying medicine in medical school, and it is Sun Zhenren who personally teaches my son."

Li Shimin and Empress Eldest Sun had a look of pride and pride on their faces at this time.

After all, not long ago, Sun Zhenren came in person and praised Princess Jinyang for being a genius who studied medicine through the ages.

At that time, Li Shimin and Empress Changsun were so excited that they couldn't describe it in words.

Fortunately, they followed the prince's advice and allowed the son to enter medical school.

"Father, mother, and son have gone to study medicine, it's really good."

"Datang has a medical school, which is a blessing for the people of Datang!"

"In the future, there will be a need for many doctors in the vast land of the Southern Continent, and this move can solve the current situation of shortage of doctors."

"It must have been the eldest brother's idea!"

"Being able to invite Sun Zhenren is probably the first credit of the eldest brother."

Li Tai's words made Li Shimin and Empress Eldest Sun smile and nodded.

"Qingque, the guess is good, it is indeed your eldest brother's idea, and you can think that opening a medical school can solve the current situation of the lack of doctors in the Southern Continent."

"Qingque can be said to think long-term."

"My father is very pleased, very pleased..."

For Li Tai's performance, Li Shimin is now more and more satisfied.

At present, it seems that Li Tai does have the ability to dominate the ruling side.

"Father, mother... Qingque has been gone for more than half a year. ”

"Why don't you send someone to bring your son, every time you go back to the palace, you will ask when Brother Qingque will come back?"

"My son misses her brother Qingque very much!"

Li Gen's voice landed, and Li Shimin smiled and nodded.

"Goodness, great goodness..."

"Li Junxian, go to the medical school immediately and bring my Princess Jinyang..."

When the little son was taken back to the palace by Li Junxian, he quickly whipped up.

In the Lizheng Palace, there is a happy image.

"Son, please say hello to my father and mother."

The little son stepped into the Lizheng Palace, and the Lizheng Palace, which was originally full of people, instantly quieted down.

The little son respectfully greeted his father and mother, which provoked Li Shimin and Empress Eldest Sun, and nodded with satisfaction.

However, then, the style of painting changed instantly.

"Brother Blue Sparrow... Why did you put ash on your face? ”

"Do you think that if you put on the ashes of the pot, your son won't know you?"

The little son, with a pair of beautiful big eyes, stared round.

That look of surprise.

provoked everyone in the Lizheng Palace, and they all burst into laughter.

Even Li Shimin and Empress Changsun couldn't hold back.

Jixiang Ruyi and Chang'an, as well as Xiao Xinyue, were even more out of breath with laughter.

Li Tai was embarrassed.

I didn't expect that as soon as my little sister appeared on the scene, it made the Lizheng Hall so happy.

And this joy is based on being mistaken for being plastered on his own face.

"Auntie, you misunderstood Uncle Huang..."

"Uncle Huang's face is innocent, and he didn't wipe the pot ash."

Fortunately, Li Ru and Li Yi stood up and proved it for Li Tai.

After some explanation, Fang knew that he was tanned by the sun.

Because of their original white skin, Li Ru and Li Yi also had a slightly dark look on their faces.

made such an oolong, and the son felt very embarrassed.

A small face instantly flushed.

"Brother Qingque, you must have suffered a lot in the past six months!"

"It's really distressing to be dark and thin now......"

Hey!

Li Shimin and Empress Eldest Sun stared at their son-in-law one after another.

Start with geometry!

The son has also begun to grow up.

I know to be considerate and caring.

"Son, although my brother did suffer some hardships, he definitely gained more than he paid."

"This trip to the southern continent brought back many species, which have never been seen in the land of Datang."

"Son, come, taste this delicious and fragrant sunflower seed!"

"Remember to peel the skin before eating!"

Li Tai grabbed a handful of melon seeds and stuffed them into the hands of his son.

"Well, it's delicious!"

After swallowing a melon seed, the little son's eyes narrowed!

No one would not like such a fragrant thing.

"Brother Green Sparrow, there is an important species, have you ever found it?"

The little son remembered the words of the eldest brother, and suddenly his eyes lit up.

Looking at Li Tai, he asked.

"What is the importance?"

"The species that the eldest brother explained, Brother Qingfinch, brought all of them this time."

Listening to Brother Qingque's words, the little son said with shining eyes.

"Brother Qingque, did you bring the tears of the rubber tree?"

In the mouth of the eldest brother, the son learned about the many uses of rubber.

Especially for the medical profession, there will be a sea change.

Even after Sun Zhenren heard that many medical facilities and equipment could be made of rubber, he began to forget it!
