Chapter 66: The Pig on the Cusp

"Back to Niangniang's words, how dare Weichen talk nonsense, Doctor Sun just left from the minister's house in the morning, and Weichen came to the East Palace at noon, if Niangniang doesn't believe it, just ask Doctor Sun."

Zhang Zheng replied, and played a little trick.

Anyway, what he said was the truth, even if the eldest grandson sent someone to verify it.

Even if Sun Simiao didn't specifically say what diseases locusts can treat, the results will only be the same as what Zhang Zheng said.

The eldest grandson did not doubt that Zhang Zheng would lie to him, and after confirming that he had Doctor Sun as his endorsement, he took the lead in picking up a locust, closed his eyes and put it in his mouth.

And at this time, Li Chengqian had already eaten the third one.

"Hey, it tastes really good, Your Majesty, you might as well taste it too."

The eldest grandson thought that even if this locust was not unpalatable, he was afraid that the taste would not be too good, but he did not expect that the result was beyond his expectations.

sighed lightly and said to Li Shimin.

Li Shimin's face was still a little hesitant.

A chubby little hand didn't know when it pressed into the plate containing the locusts.

The little fat man Li Tai is only nine years old this year, which is the age when chickens and dogs don't like it, and his curiosity is very heavy.

When I saw that the eldest brother and the eldest brother had eaten the things on the plate, they thought it was something delicious.

He grabbed a handful of locusts with lightning speed and shoved them into his mouth.

Immediately, everyone's attention was drawn to the past.

The cheeks bulge like a squirrel, and the mouth chews out a "crunch" sound.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, he showed an innocent look to everyone.

The stupid and cute expression suddenly provoked the love of the eldest grandmother, and she picked up her little son and kissed the little fat man on the face.

"Little Green Sparrow, is it delicious?"

After kissing, the eldest grandson asked with a smile.

The eldest grandson can be called the first sage in ancient and modern times by later history books, and his political wisdom is naturally needless to say.

How can you not understand what it means to the people of the world if Li Er eats this plate of locusts today.

played a wave of assists without a trace, and showed an appreciative look to Zhang Zheng.

Zhang Zheng received the eldest grandson's eyes, and hurriedly glanced at the eldest grandson with a grateful look.

"Hmm, it's delicious, it's delicious, it's delicious."

The little fat man Li Tai chewed the food in his mouth and said vaguely.

"Come, Your Majesty also taste, don't talk about this locust, it looks quite disgusting, but it tastes really good."

The eldest grandson put down the youngest son in his arms, twisted one and handed it to Li Shimin's mouth.

Li Shimin saw that his youngest son had eaten it, and so many people said that it tasted good, so he thought about tasting it.

If it really tastes good, then it doesn't mean that there will be one more dish on the people's table.

In particular, these locusts are still the main culprits who have caused the famine in Datang today, if the locusts can be eaten, some can be made up for some.

So, with a big mouth, he ate the locust that the eldest grandson handed to his mouth.

"Huh."

Li Shimin glanced at Zhang Zheng in surprise, it tasted really good.

And Zhang Zheng on the side saw that Li Shimin finally opened his mouth to try.

Hurriedly divide the locusts in the large plate into several plates in small plates, and then serve them to the others

"Come on, ladies and gentlemen, princesses, and your highness, taste it, it's delicious."

Zhang Zheng brought the small plate to the others and beckoned everyone to eat together.

And the others, seeing that His Majesty has eaten it, I'm afraid it won't work if they don't eat it themselves.

They all looked at Zhang Zheng with complicated eyes, and then pinched their noses and forcibly endured the nausea and began to eat.

"Master Li, you can also taste one, just one, you are old, you shouldn't have eaten this kind of fried food.

This is the negligence of the students, and the students will dry and grind the locusts into powder for you to boil a pot of locust porridge for you to taste. ”

Zhang Zheng took out the chopsticks and put one in front of Li Gang, and said apologetically.

"Hehe, it's okay, the old man is old, but this tooth is fine."

Old Li Gang smiled and put the insect body that Zhang Zheng took into his mouth.

Seeing that everyone had already eaten the insect body in front of them.

Zhang Zheng put away the food box.

Thinking in his heart, since Li Shimin is in the East Palace, he just happened to do another thing together, and he ran back and forth in the East Palace, trouble.

After all, whether it is Ju Wentai, the head of Gaochang State, the envoys of other small countries, or Zhang Zheng, they all need this matter to promote the results they want.

was about to speak, but he didn't expect Li Shimin to speak first.

"Boy Zhang, come to the East Palace today, and eating this locust is your real purpose."

Li Shimin wiped his hands with the silk cloth handed over by his eldest grandson, and then said to Zhang Zheng slowly.

"Hey, I've seen through it." But Zhang Zheng admits that it is impossible.

Zhang Zheng smiled, had already thought of his words, and said without blushing and heartbeat.

"How can it, what kind of person is Your Majesty as a micro-minister, today Weichen is serious to celebrate the birthday of His Royal Highness the Prince.

As for inviting you to eat locusts, it's just a coincidence, after all, the minister didn't know that Your Majesty, you and your mothers, as well as the princes and princesses, were also in the East Palace. ”

"Tsk, it's reasonable and convincing, it's seamless, I'm going to give you food, but who told you Li Er to bump into it by himself."

Zhang Zheng couldn't help but praise his wit.

"Humph!"

When Li Shimin heard this, he snorted stupidly and stopped talking.

It is estimated that Li Shimin also figured out the benefits he can bring to the people after eating locusts.

Looking at Li Er's arrogant appearance, Zhang Zheng decided to ignore him for the time being.

Turning his head to Empress Changsun, he said, "Niangniang, what do you think of the taste of this locust?" ”

"Yes, it does taste quite good, and if you popularize this dish on the people's tables, it will be a great contribution."

How could the eldest grandson not know what Zhang Zheng's idea was, anyway, it would be good for the royal family to do so, so he replied along with his words.

"Rest assured, Weichen will definitely go all out, it's just a locust plague, and see how the people of my Tang Dynasty eat this locust plague into their stomachs."

Zhang Zheng was waiting for this sentence and assured his eldest grandson.

With the words of the eldest grandson, coupled with the influence of the newspaper among the people of the Tang Dynasty.

It's not easy to get this done, but at least it's not that hard.

"By the way, Your Majesty, Weichen has a small request."

After the first thing was done, Zhang Zheng waited for the result he wanted.

The difficulty of the second thing is not small, but not big.

It is difficult to say that it is because once Li Shimin agrees to go to the southern suburbs to worship the sky, it can almost be said that he has released a signal of resignation to everyone.

It is not necessary to make an edict to sacrifice to the heavens, but it is somewhat about to be unbearable, and I pray to God to let it go.

It's small, because the proposer of this matter is Zhang Zheng, and Zhang Zheng happens to be the pig who is standing on the cusp of the storm, and all the big families want to get rid of it.
