Li Zhi, don't be a coward

Chapter 684 New way of eating

Entertaining Li Zhi is a labor-intensive and labor-intensive task.

Although people in this era have never seen anything in the world, and the food they eat is nothing more than steamed, boiled and roasted, Li Zhi has become more and more tricky since he tasted the food made by Li Qinzai.

Now Li Qinzai can't satisfy him at all by making some ordinary food. Last night Li Zhi was hungry before going to bed, so he asked the cook to make a steamed cake and golden crisp. Li Zhi only tasted it, and then hated it for half an hour. The long-winded chatter hypnotized myself.

With such a product, Li Qinzai really racked his brains to satisfy him.

He wasn't a cook in his previous life either.

There is a small mountain in Ganjingzhuang, and there is a bamboo forest on the mountain.

Li Qinzai led several Buqus up the mountain, walked into the bamboo forest, found a bamboo that was pleasing to the eye, and asked Buqu to chop it down and drag it down the mountain.

Back in the other courtyard, Li Qinzai cut off the bamboo joints separately, cleaned them, and split them from one-third of the way.

Soaked glutinous rice and round-grained rice are stuffed into the split bamboo tube, and then the dried meat from the farm is marinated with sauce and seasoned, then evenly placed on the rice, closed and fixed on the bamboo tube, and roasted on the firewood.

Li Zhi sat in the yard anxiously, watching Li Qinzai busy with work, and Li Zhihe was looking forward to the novelty of doing things today.

He knew that he had a good fortune today, not the kind of hidden good fortune between the couple's bed, but the literal sense of good fortune.

After roasting on the firewood for two quarters, Li Qinzai took off the bamboo tube and uncovered the upper layer. A strong scent mixed with dried meat and rice immediately spread out, and the whole yard could smell it.

"It smells so good!" Li Zhi's eyes brightened, and he stretched out his hands like a beggar begging for alms from kind-hearted people: "Hurry up, give it to me, hurry up!"

Li Qinzai sighed. For this little food, the emperor would lose face. Your father who is lying peacefully in Zhaoling, if he sees his son's virtue, I don't know if his grave will be blown up...

Holding the bamboo tube in front of Li Zhi, and giving him a wooden spoon, Li Zhi buried his head and began to cook.

"It's delicious, it's so delicious! Ermu and maidservant too!" Li Zhi was so happy that he cursed.

Li Qinzai picked up the other bamboo tube and took a sip. Well, it tasted really good. The rice was mixed with oily meat and had a strong aroma of meat and sauce. It tasted especially good with rice.

"As long as your Majesty likes it," Li Qinzai smiled, "This thing is called 'Bamboo Tube Rice', and it tastes good."

Li Zhi nodded wildly while eating: "It's not only good, it's really good, Jingchu, I found that you are full of treasures, and there will be a long time to come, let me dig it out slowly."

Li Qinzai was taken aback for a moment, and suddenly showed a shy and reserved expression.

Treasure boy officially certified by the emperor, tsk!It's real.

A piece of rice in a bamboo tube, Li Zhi ate it clean in three or two bites. If the bamboo tube was not too narrow and inconvenient to eat, Li Zhi would have licked the bamboo tube to make it look brand new.

To be honest, the guard dog of the Li family has never cherished food so much.

"It's delicious!" Li Zhi pursed his mouth, not bothering to wipe off the oily shine on his mouth.

"Your Majesty, write down the secret recipe. After your Majesty returns to the palace, you can ask the royal chef in the palace to make it for you."

Li Zhi smiled and said: "Very good, let's go!"

"However, Your Majesty, this food is a bit greasy after all. Your Majesty's old illness is still unhealed, so try to eat as little as possible." Li Qinzai advised.

Li Zhi smiled and said: "It's okay, since Jingchu gave me a folk prescription, shredded ginkgo leaves and soaked in water, I must drink it every day, and I haven't had any illness since then, you are better than the imperial physician."

A momentary daze appeared in Li Qinzai's mind.

Li Zhi hasn't been ill for a long time, so, has China's history changed since then?
Empress Wu's ambition may never have a chance to be realized, and Li Zhi, an ambitious emperor, will probably live for many more years, and his lifelong ambition must be fulfilled.

What about Li Qinzai?

He doesn't have any ambitions, and he doesn't have any ideal ambitions. He seems to have done a lot for Datang, but only he knows best that most of the things he does are convenient.

Making gunpowder, making three-eyed guns, harvesting Tuyuhun, and today's new grains...

Seriously, it seems that there is no one thing that he is very motivated and takes the initiative to do. All things come to an end, and he follows the trend.

If there is any difference, it is probably due to the fact that his three views are still fair. Although many things are done easily, the common people still get benefits in the end.

This is not bad, even if he does nothing from now on, relying on the achievements he has made now, when he is old and dying on the bed to bid farewell to this world, he is still not guilty.

His name will definitely appear in the history.

"Jingchu, Jingchu!" Li Zhi said in a voice, "Are you stupid? What are you thinking?"

"Forgive me, Your Majesty. I tend to be in a daze when I'm full. It's commonly known as 'dizzy with food'."

"It's the same with me, Jingchu, I'll leave it to you to take care of the new crops. You must take care of them. Don't make any mistakes. I grant you the right to make decisions on the fly. No matter who covets my new crops, you can kill them first and then act."

"The minister obeys the order."

"When will the grain seeds mature?"

"It's almost time for Empress Xia, please wait patiently, Your Majesty."

Li Zhi nodded: "Although there are only a few grain seeds, the yield per mu can be estimated after they mature. All these grain seeds will be used as seeds after harvesting. In a year or two..."

Thinking of the grand occasion of five thousand catties per mu in the future, Li Zhi couldn't help being in a good mood, looked up to the sky and laughed twice: "I'm in a good mood today, Jing Chu, and bring me another bamboo tube rice, as long as the meat is not rice."

…………

Li Zhi hiccupped, left Ganjing Village contentedly, and went back to Chang'an.

This trip was worth it, especially the new grains, which made him want to scream with excitement. To be honest, he had never had such a good time with the mother and daughter of the Korean lady.

Before leaving, Li Zhi wandered in the field reluctantly again, like a licking dog that cannot be loved, staring at the land in a daze, it took a long time before he got on the imperial chariot and left.

Li Qinzai sent Li Zhigong out of the village, and then let out a long breath.

The new crops have already been planted in the soil, and the value of the Tocharo Hushang Yiduo has completely disappeared at this moment. Simply put, he is a piece of used toilet paper.

However, although the grain seeds are in hand, the troubles of Nestorianism have not yet been resolved. Li Qinzai is not in a hurry, and locks up Yiduo first. After Li Zhi cleans up Nestorianism, he will settle accounts with Yang Shuen.

Back to the wing room in the backyard, Cui Jie was accompanying Zi Nu.

Zi Nu looked depressed, the eyes of the two girls were flushed, Cui Jie didn't know what happened, she cried with Zi Nu.

Seeing Li Qinzai coming in, Cui Jie got up to meet her, choked up and said, "Husband spend more time with Sister Zinu, she is so pitiful."

Li Qinzai frowned, what kind of painting style is this?One is the wife and the other is the concubine. It stands to reason that the two should fight openly and secretly, but he, the husband, is in a dilemma.

But in this situation, there is an indescribable harmony between the three of them. Judging by Cui Jie's appearance, she is not only harmonious, but also empathizes with Zi Nu.
