Chapter 25 Shocking the Hundred Officials, Li Yunxiao Makes Another Meritorious Service!

Li Yunxiao was stunned, why did Li Shimin come here?

The eunuch on the side glanced at Li Yunxiao and coughed lightly twice, which seemed to mean that he was still not saluting.

Li Yunxiao raised his eyebrows indifferently and deliberately exposed a corner of the gold medal.

Although it was just a provocation, Li Yunxiao still gave a salute.

Those who become big things are not informal, Li Shimin walked over quickly, and he didn't care whether Li Yunxiao saluted at the first time, but looked at the noodles on the table.

He finished his work and finished approving the folds, and he came here because someone informed Li Yunxiao that he was coming over, and he was still carrying things.

He was curious about Li Yunxiao, so he rushed over.

"What is Li Aiqing discussing with the queen? If it's entertainment, why is there only a bowl of somen noodles? ”

"Someone! Inform the imperial dining room, for Li Aiqing...."

"Don't don't, I ate before I came, thank you for your kindness."

Li Yunxiao didn't plan to eat here, he had to go back to study something else after he was done.

Empress Eldest Sun pointed to the noodles on the table and said, "Your Majesty, this is the noodles made by Li Yunxiao, can you taste them?" ”

"Oh? Li Aiqing did it personally? I've got to have a good taste. ”

Li Shimin picked up the chopsticks and took a bite.

"Well, it tastes good, but the heat is a little worse, Li Aiqing, if you want to learn cooking, why don't I find you a few people?"

When Empress Changsun heard this, she hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, this noodle is very peculiar, you don't need a cook to make it, you just need to soak it in water and eat it!" ”

As she spoke, she told her about instant noodles.

After Li Shimin heard this, his face became serious.

"Li Aiqing, what is this?"

"Instant noodles."

"How?"

"That's too difficult, I've been forgetting to sleep and eat for the past few days, and I don't even have time to sleep, and the dark circles under my eyes a few days ago are caused by this incident."

"Haha, Li Aiqing, you just say how it was made, and I will naturally reward you." Li Shimin interrupted him.

How could he not know that he wanted a reward when he said this.

Li Yunxiao pondered for a moment and said, "The production is very cumbersome, I must personally supervise the work, otherwise if something goes wrong, I won't be able to eat it." ”

Li Shimin took a deep breath, what he saw was not just a bowl of noodles, but his demeanor of the Tang Dynasty Iron Rider driving the world!

"How long does this food last?"

"A few months, if it's tidal, it will be shorter, keep it dry and sealed, half a year will not be a problem."

"Good! All right! Is this side still there? ”

Li Yunxiao took out more than a dozen pieces from his bag, which he brought by the way.

Li Shimin picked up the package, hurriedly turned around and left.

Needless to say, I must have asked some people to try it.

Seeing Li Shimin leaving, Li Yunxiao turned his head to look at Empress Changsun.

"Okay, since you have fulfilled your promise to the queen, then you will leave below."

After speaking, Li Yunxiao got up and left.

Empress Eldest Sun opened her mouth slightly, raised her hand and wanted to say something, but in the end she shook her head helplessly and let him leave.

At this moment, a little girl of seven or eight years old ran over surrounded by maids.

"Mother!"

The little girl has a melon seed face, although she is young, her body is like a dragon, and her steps are like a general, revealing her high-spirited vitality.

Clear water out of hibiscus, natural carving, natural beauty, if you grow up, it is definitely a beauty with a beautiful complexion.

If you look closely, her appearance is somewhat similar to that of the eldest grandson queen.

Empress Eldest Sun sighed and said angrily: "Lizhen, didn't my mother warn you that you are not allowed to run around?" ”

The little girl pouted.

"They're all too boring, mother, can you go out for a walk with me?"

When Empress Changsun heard this, a touch of helplessness swelled up in her heart.

They don't have to go out, they have extremely strong strength, and there are guards, but if they let her out, if the guards are unfavorable, what if the thieves can get their hands on them?

Both she and Li Shimin love this daughter very much.

But the things outside are not over yet, and there are too many enemies hiding in the shadows.

stepped forward to pick up the little girl, and the eldest grandson queen said softly: "After a while, my mother will take you to meet someone, if you can worship him as a teacher, my mother will let you stay outside." ”

"Really?"

"Of course, when did my mother lie to you?"

"No, then we're going to pull the hook."

Empress Eldest Sun smiled helplessly and stretched out her finger.

"We pulled the hook, my mother can't forget it!"

After saying that, the little girl ran away with a smile.

....

An hour later.

The main hall of the Royal Palace.

The hundred officials who had already left were summoned by Li Shimin with a word.

"Your Majesty suddenly summoned us, what happened?"

"I don't know, but it shouldn't be a good thing to be in such a hurry."

"I think it's a Turkic problem."

As soon as these words came out, many ministers around him nodded frequently.

In the past year, with the various policies issued by Li Shimin, Datang has been thriving, although the treasury has not yet been full, but the national strength is very strong.

On the Turkic side, due to their internal exploitation and oppression of people of all ethnic groups, many people have come to Datang to make a living.

In May, it will be winter, and every time it is winter, it is very difficult, so the Turks have repeatedly committed the Tang Dynasty, and what they want is to eat a piece of meat.

If winter comes, catch up with the snow disaster, and the cattle and sheep have no food, it will be a great disaster for the Turks!

Compared with the power of natural disasters, they are more willing to fight with Datang, now it is just a temptation, and when the temptation is almost over, they will definitely attack!

The ministers discussed a lot, and each had his own conjectures.

"The Holy One has arrived!"

At this moment, Li Shimin walked in with a package and under the puzzled eyes of everyone.

At the same time, there is a group of imperial chefs behind him, holding boiling water and dishes and chopsticks in their hands.

Because it was in the palace, there were all kinds of ingredients, and Li Shimin also deliberately asked people to cut some ingredients and put them aside.

"Long live my emperor, long live...."

"Okay, don't be polite, come on, send the dishes and chopsticks."

Li Shimin waved his hand and ordered the imperial chef to send the dishes and chopsticks down.

There are only a dozen bowls, and each pair of chopsticks is a pair.

The next moment, Li Shimin asked people to put the noodles into a bowl again, pour salt and diced vegetables.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is my latest food discovery, you can taste it and see how it goes."

"This kind of food, as long as it is soaked in boiling water, can be eaten in half an hour!"

When the words fell, all the ministers were stunned and immediately whispered.

"Soak in water for half an hour to eat? How can boiled noodles be cooked like this? Can you eat that? ”

"Who says it's not, I'm so old, I'm afraid that I'll eat half-baked and spoil my stomach, so what else can I do."

Is there something else in it? This pasta is obviously inedible, isn't this a waste of food? ”

"Okay, you have to take a bite of what you can say, otherwise you have to be careful of your head moving."

In the process of instant noodles, everyone talked a lot, and shook their heads from time to time.

They couldn't guess what the meaning of Li Shimin letting them eat raw noodles was, but they didn't know that Li Shimin didn't have any meaning, just let them eat it.

"Alright, open it!"

Li Shimin gave an order, and the imperial chef stepped forward to open the bowl of instant noodles.

The ministers who were discussing suddenly smelled the smell of noodles.

"Ahh This smells great. ”

"yes, it looks like you can eat it?"

Li Shimin looked at the ministers below and said with a light smile: "General Cheng, you come and try this." ”

Cheng Yanjin scratched his cheeks: "Why is it me again." ”

Although he complained, he still honestly picked up the bowl and took a bite.

"Hmm...."

Seeing Cheng biting Jin chewing slowly, the people around him were anxious.

"General Cheng, how is it? Can you eat it? ”

"Hmm.... It can be eaten, but the taste is average, and it is far worse than what I ate in the first-line sky noodle restaurant. ”

The first-line noodle restaurant is opened in an excellent location, and the chefs in it have been working for more than ten years, and the food they make is naturally much more delicious than this instant noodles.

"General Cheng, you're trying to eat."

"Still dry?"

Li Shimin asked in a serious tone: "What?" Don't you want to? ”

"Eat, eat, eat!"

took the instant noodles handed over by Li Shimin, and Cheng took a bite of Jin.

"It's not tasteful, it's not delicious."

Li Shimin just smiled, raised his hand and said, "All Aiqing come and taste it." ”

All the ministers stepped forward one after another, one person with one chopstick.

After eating, they all had the same evaluation as Cheng Yanjin, the taste was not bad, but it was not as delicious as the noodles.

Li Shimin asked at this time: "This noodle is naturally different from what you Aiqing eats, but don't forget, this noodle can be eaten as long as it is soaked in boiling water!" ”

Wow!

It was then that everyone remembered that their attention was focused on the food, but they had forgotten the essence of the food!

At this time, Li Shimin said with a solemn expression: "This noodle is no different from dry food, but it is stored for a longer time, and you can eat a bowl of hot noodles just by brewing it with hot water." ”

"If you don't have water, you can eat dry."

Speaking of this, Li Shimin glanced at the ministers.

"Ladies and gentlemen, if there is this kind of food when the army is marching and fighting..."

At this moment, everyone raised their heads in shock!

Indeed, if you bring some with you during the war, wouldn't it be a hundred times more convenient than cooking rice and porridge?!

"Your Majesty! Where did you get this? I want 10,000 quintals! ”

The people around him twitched fiercely from the corners of their eyes.

10,000 quintals? That's 100,000 catties.

Now that there is no war, what do you want to do?

Li Shimin waved his hand to signal quiet.

"This thing, called instant noodles, means very simple, easy to eat and carry noodles, and this noodles were developed by Li Yunxiao!"

"What?! It's Li Yunxiao again?! ”

Hearing this name, the ministers all felt numb with shock, and they were dumbfounded one by one.

In just three days.

From solving the locust plague to diverting water from the south to the north, now another instant noodle has been developed.

Could it be that he, Li Yunxiao, is really a Tang Dynasty Fujiang and a person who changes the pattern of heaven and earth?

Don't think about it, even civilian officials can see the role of this instant noodles, and for those who march and fight, it is simply a treasure!

What is the most expensive thing to fight a war? In addition to people, iron riders are food!

With such convenient and quick food, they can save more time for other things.

It's no wonder that Cheng wants so much to bite the gold.

At this time, the eldest grandson Wuji suddenly thought of something, and his eyes lit up and said:

"Your Majesty, what Li Yunxiao said before can solve the food problem of the workers of the South-to-North Water Diversion, is this instant noodles?"

Li Shimin nodded.

"I guess so, but I'm distressed right now."

"Ladies and gentlemen, Li Yunxiao has made another great contribution, what do you think I should reward him?"

"Give money, I see he likes money."

As soon as Cheng Biting Jin's words came out, a minister beside him shook his head.

"Money, for this kind of capable person, it is too vulgar, if you can live with Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng, you will definitely not be interested in gold and silver."

"The 10,000 gold I received earlier was supposed to be prepared for making this instant noodle."

Li Shimin nodded and said, "What Aiqing said is reasonable, as far as I know, Li Aiqing did buy all the ingredients with all the money. ”

At this time, the eldest grandson Wuji arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, the minister has a way, but he doesn't know whether to talk about it or not." ”

"But it doesn't hurt to say it."

"That's what the minister said." The eldest grandson Wuji cleared his throat and said: "Since Li Yunxiao doesn't like to be an official, and he is pessimistic about money, it is better to marry...."

"Marriage?" Li Shimin was puzzled: "Who do you want to marry him?" ”

The eldest grandson Wuji opened his mouth, but he hesitated for a long time but still didn't dare to speak.

Li Shimin sighed and beckoned to him: "Come up." ”

The eldest grandson Wuji hurriedly came to his side and whispered: "Your Majesty's daughter, Princess Changle!" ”

"What!?"

Li Shimin's internal force shocked, and he flew the eldest grandson Wuji out at once.

The eldest grandson Wuji hurriedly knelt on the ground.

Her daughter Princess Li Lizhi of Changle is only seven years old, what is this guy talking about?

Li Shimin felt that he was a little out of shape, and hurriedly withdrew his internal strength.

I just wanted to say something reproachful, but he thought about it carefully, if he made a marriage contract with Li Yunxiao, although he was not an official in name, he could at least tie him to a horse, and this method might work....

Since ancient times, there have always been things about family affairs when he was young, but when it fell on his head Li Shimin, he didn't feel so comfortable.

Li Shimin pondered for a moment, and suddenly had an idea in his heart, since he didn't know what to reward, then he would change his way.

"Alright, retreat!"

Li Shimin waved his hand and turned to leave.

Cheng Yanjin shouted in the back: "Your Majesty, what about my 10,000 quintals of instant noodles?" ”

"Go, go, go with Li Yunxiao!"

Li Shimin's somewhat impatient voice came from afar.
